However, due to the first generation of locust tides, it was cleared very quickly.

The [Shennongmen], which carried out greenhouse seedling cultivation in advance, actually did not delay much spring ploughing time.

The subsequent generations of locust tides, although they brought some damage to the crops, but there was an air defense of the bird brigade, a sweep of the poultry legion, and a thunderstorm convoy at night to clear the crops, and through [Shennongmen] continued to promote grain seeds for replanting, so in fact, the loss was very limited.

In the middle stage, the locust mutation becomes larger, but the damage to crops plummets, and in the later stage, the mutation becomes carnivorous, and there is no great harm at all.

As for being able to have such a high-yield harvest, in addition to deep cultivation and dense planting, in fact, it mainly depends on the good seeds prepared by Bai Yuqi in advance!

As early as after he hooked up with the king of Lingnan, in addition to signing a grain supply contract with the Lingnan forces.

He also commissioned Feng Ang to go south to the Jiaozhi County of the old Han Dynasty, where the current name of Linyi was located, in a place called Zhancheng, to find a kind of rice varieties that were early-maturing, high-yielding, drought-tolerant, unselective, and multi-year-ripening.

After the grain seeds were transported back with the grain ship, they were handed over to the disciples of [Shennongmen] for the tent breeding hybrid improvement experiment, which obtained this kind of grain seed that yielded five stones per mu in only 50 days from seedling raising to harvesting.

That's it, it's just the first generation of improved varieties, and I believe that the yield can be improved after several generations.

And Bai Yuqi was busy with miscellaneous affairs, so he didn't care about helping to release a large range of [plant growth], otherwise what would a yield of 300 kilograms per mu be worth?

Compared with the super rice of Yuan Da Druid in later generations, which yielded more than 19 stone (1,149 kilograms) per mu, it is far worse, and it is not worth mentioning!

However, as Bai Yuqi plans to pass on the [Druid] profession, I believe that a group of Great Druids will be cultivated at that time.

When the Shennongism (Druidism) develops, there will be not only ape virtues, but also druids such as bear virtues, tiger virtues, leopard virtues, eagle virtues, etc., and what kind of food will they need? Maybe when the time comes, planting rice will be the same as planting trees, and it is not necessary to invest in a hundred years of harvest at a time!

Bai Yuqi felt that the foundation was not six, but the monarchs and ministers of the Tang Dynasty and the opposition, after repeatedly confirming that "Shennong Rice No. 1" could indeed yield an average of five stones per mu, they knelt in the field one by one and cried, holding the newly fertilized field is kissing and touching, and they couldn't stop it!

Li Shimin was so excited that he was soaking urine all over his body, and he howled heartbreakingly, saying that he was going to sacrifice Tianjiao to thank God and Emperor Shennong.

In the end, it was Bai Yuqi who persuaded again and again, and after the autumn harvest was made sure that the second harvest would not decline.

Holding another autumn harvest festival, harvest festival and other festivals to thank Shennong and his old man, Li Shimin calmed down a little.

Lian again and again said that such a major event of worshiping the heavens really needs to be prepared in a hurry, and immediately ordered the Ministry of Rites to start preparing for the "Shennong Ceremony" at the time of the autumn harvest on the same day.

There is also a reason why Bai Yuqi did not let Li Shimin celebrate with great fanfare.

The Tang Dynasty monarchs and ministers generally had the illusion that the locust plague had passed, the grain had been harvested, and that this natural disaster had ended.

However, Bai Yuqi became more and more nervous, because the evolution speed of the mutated giant locust was so fast that it could no longer be explained by the [Arcane Particle] infectation.

The seven-generation body is one meter long, has a wingspan of two meters, and weighs several kilograms;

The eight-generation body is 1.3 meters long, has a wingspan of 2.5 meters, and weighs nearly 10 kilograms;

The nine generations are 1.8 meters long, have a wingspan of 3.6 meters, and weigh more than 10 kilograms;

The tenyo body is 2.5 meters long......

Although as the size of the giant locust grows, the total locust tide will fall more and more precipitously.

From hundreds of millions to tens of millions of birds, and then from tens of millions to millions, millions to nearly a million, hundreds of thousands to nearly 100,000

By the time of the tenth generation, there were only more than 10,000 locusts left...... More than 10,000 behemoths with a body length of two and a half meters, a wingspan of five meters, and a weight of dozens of kilograms!

Can a locust, which is more than two meters long and weighs tens of kilograms, still be considered an insect?

These ten generations of giant locusts can no longer be regarded as "worms", but should be called "beasts".

Not only have their bodies covered in thick bone armor with a metallic sheen, but they have also evolved terrifying aggressive jaws that have become true carnivorous predators!

So Bai Yuqi renamed these "locust beasts", called: Iron Locust Dire!

Bai Yuqi didn't know if there were locusts in the Cretaceous era in ancient times, but these "iron locusts" looked as hideous and scary as the ancient giant insects in the age of dinosaurs, and it is not an exaggeration to call them "locusts".

It is clear that it will evolve into this scale in such a short period of time, and it is obviously not something that can be achieved by [Arcane particle] infection alone, but a stress mutant evolution that is stimulated by a large number of deaths.

Bai Yuqi even wondered if they had already evolved a ferocious locust, or even an arcane beast-level leader, so they could make up for their weaknesses, and it would be bad if that were the case.

Because according to the observation of the evolution process of those animals in the "Qinling Tribal Alliance", Bai Yuqi found that once a leader-level individual appeared in the cluster, the promotion effect on the entire group would be greatly increased, and now he could only hope that the leader individual had not yet opened the spiritual intelligence, otherwise the consequences would be unimaginable!

No matter how strong the locust tide is, it is just following instinct.

But what if there was a leader among them, who could command the groups attached to it like an army, and fight with a purpose?

This was not Bai Yuqi's random speculation, because according to the clues reported by the mercenaries, it was already difficult for them to find the hiding place of these locusts.

Unless the other party actively attacks them, you have to dig three feet to find them...... They even learned to dig holes to hide themselves!

This kind of locust is no longer for ordinary mercenaries to deal with, and their attacks have no effect on the iron locust.

It can only be used as a scout, sounding the alarm when it finds a target, and then using itself as a bait to try to entangle the locust and prevent it from escaping.

For this reason, Bai Yuqi even sent a reconnaissance eagle scout team to inspect the Guanzhong area around the clock, and as soon as he found a trace of locusts, he immediately sent dragoon guards to strangle them, and even sent Wujimen disciples who sat with him in the Taiji Imperial Capital when necessary.

Fortunately, no matter how it mutates and evolves, the attraction of [Arcane Fire Source] to these iron locusts still exists, which is why Bai Yuqi always sits in the air defense tower and does not dare to leave easily!

If the Iron Locust, which has completely evolved into a carnivorous predator, breaks into the Taiji Imperial Capital, which has a population of millions of people, what is the difference between it and a rat entering the granary?

As the information of the Dragoon Guards and the Mercenary Guild continued to come, it was said that there was no trace of the Iron Locusts anymore, and they seemed to have suddenly disappeared without a trace!

Bai Yuqi knows that the time has come!
