Seeing the suspicious behavior of Mu Hu, Yue Jinghua quietly observed from the side.
After digging the earth, Mu Hu carefully ignited a small bunch of fire he brought along and shone it towards the dark earth mound.
One could see rows of ants scrambling out of the ground as soon as they encountered the fire.
Only then did Yue Jinghua see clearly that what Mu Hu was digging was an ant nest. As the ants fled from the light, the nest was full of tender white eggs.
Overjoyed upon seeing the nest, Mu Hu carefully placed the fire to one side. Working with both hands and feet, he dug the earth while cautiously extracting each of the eggs.
It turned out that all of Mu Hu's preparations were for harvesting these insect eggs, Yue Jinghua praised silently.
Mu Hu might appear simple-minded, but he's quite talented in dealing with poisonous insects, and it seemed he had no fear of potent poisons.
