Chapter 49: Support
At the same time, all the indica rice planted in Shili Village and was not harvested in advance, and the family was rushing to harvest it.
After getting the news of the locust plague two days ago, these people did not harvest in advance, after all, harvesting in advance will definitely reduce the yield, not to mention that the locusts have not come at that time, and the longer it drags on, the smaller the loss of indica rice.
Now, the indica rice is still not fully ripe, but looking at the overwhelming swarms of locusts outside the village, once all of them are swept in, I am afraid that in the end, they will not even be able to keep the indica rice that has been harvested, and these people have to harvest.
At this time, there were already small swarms of a few or dozens of locusts breaking into the village, and those ordinary locusts would pounce on them whenever they saw grass and trees.
But among them, there were more than a dozen soul devouring locusts, and after breaking into the village, they followed the faint aura emitted by the spirit plant to find the indica rice.
Immediately, it fell into the indica rice and gnawed wildly.
The upper and lower jaws of these soul devouring locusts are extremely sharp, and their body size is relatively large, a foot long indica rice ear, more than ten soul devouring locusts pounced on it, and the entire indica rice was gnawed away in a moment, and there was not even a single scum left.
The villagers who were eager to harvest the indica rice did not pay attention to the dozen or so soul devouring locusts that pounced on the spiritual field, but seized all the time to continue to harvest the indica rice.
After the bales of indica rice are harvested, they are directly bundled into stacks and piled on carts, and after they are full, they are wrapped in cloth and pulled directly into the village and put into the houses of each family, and at the same time, the houses are tightly closed, leaving no gaps for locusts.
At this time, the interception of the locust swarm has become more and more intense, and more and more locust swarms have rushed into the village.
Soon, dozens of locusts flew towards Liu Tianqi's Zhongpin Lingtian.
Liu Tianqi casually had a [Xuanjian]:
"Inferior spirit beasts, devouring spirit locusts, like to gnaw on spirit plants. ”
It turned out to be all soul devouring locusts.
Liu Tianqi's face was solemn.
The high-quality spiritual plants planted in the Zhongpin Lingtian are extremely tempting to locusts, even if they are only a few seedlings.
"Brother, the locust swarm is coming. ”
Dozens of Soul Devouring Locusts were like a yellow-brown veil, covering the heads of Liu Tianqi and the others.
"All of them put on their fur coats and covered their heads and faces. ”
When they heard this, they put on a suit of animal skin.
Ordinary locusts are just that, but the spirit devouring locusts are all low-grade spirit beasts, but any martial artist above the enlightenment realm, as long as they are not attacked to the point, they will not be fatal at all.
It's not scary to be alone, but if a swarm crashes towards a person, even a martial artist in the Fusion Realm has to deal with it carefully.
"Brother Hongyi, Wenguang, prepare. ”
The locust swarm was getting closer and closer, and Liu Tianqi said to the two people beside him.
A spirit rune appeared in each of the three of them, and the spiritual power in their bodies surged, and three firebirds suddenly roared out of the hands of the three people, burning most of the soul devouring locusts that rushed into the cloth cover.
Still, a few Soul Eaters escaped the firebird's burn.
Han Hongyi hurriedly said: "Tianqi, I'll go in and kill the few remaining locusts now." ”
Liu Tianqi said calmly: "Don't worry, the spiritual field is still covered with cloth, a few spirit devouring locusts can't be bad for a while, recover your spiritual power and prepare for the next wave of attacks." ”
Just when Liu Tianqi and the three of them crushed dozens of soul devouring locusts, Jiang Yuankai, Jiang Yuanjing and Zhou Yongge next to them were in big trouble.
These two groups of people are not as wealthy as Liu Tianqi, and they have such good things as the Firebird Spirit Rune, even if they have such a human-level top-grade Spirit Rune, they may not be willing to take it out to deal with locusts.
Therefore, when the locust swarm swooped down, several young teenagers were directly knocked to the ground.
The scalp-numbing scene even made the two little girls cry on the spot.
The others were also embarrassed by the impact of the locusts.
But then, under the leadership of Jiang Yuankai, Jiang Yuanjing and Zhou Yongge, a group of people quickly used the big net in their hands to cover all the locusts in the sky above Lingtian.
But as the swarms of locusts continued to fly, the swarms in the net were already covered with a thick layer.
He could only put the net on the ground and crush the locusts in it with sticks and stones, but in the middle of the delay, at least a dozen locusts fell in the spiritual field.
At this time, Jiang Yuanjing suddenly screamed: "Look, on Nanshan." ”
This scream did not even hide the noise of the locust swarm.
Not only the children of the Jiang family, but also Liu Tianqi and Zhou Yongge and others also heard it.
When I heard the sound, I saw a thick yellow-brown insect cloud rising above the South Mountain.
The west of the village was defended by two of the most powerful true warriors in the village, and they were already unable to catch it, causing some locusts to enter the village.
In the south of the village, there is only Jiang Erniang, a true martial artist of the Condensation Realm, who is defending, obviously, there will be more and more locusts in the village in the future.
All the teenagers were panicked.
"Attack!"
Liu Tianqi let out a loud shout, and the two people beside him woke up from their stunned state, and hurriedly activated the spirit rune and began to attack again.
The south of the village is precarious, and if more locusts come in, it will not be able to hold it at all.
Therefore, Liu Tianqi pulled his throat and said to Zhou Yongge, Jiang Yuankai and Jiang Yuanjing: "The south is in danger, there are not enough manpower, let's go over and see if we can help."
"I'm afraid our strength is a little insufficient to defend directly, right?" Zhou Yongge worried.
Jiang Yuanjing was a little hesitant when she heard this, but Jiang Yuankai was a little moved, after all, it was his mother who was in the south of the village.
Liu Tianqi added a fire and said: "What's the use of you guarding Lingtian here now, once the defense in the south of the village is broken, what we do here will be in vain." ”
At this time, even Jiang Yuankai was moved by what Liu Tianqi said, but he still thought about Jiang Yuanjing next to him and looked at it, only to hear Jiang Yuanjing open his mouth and ask:
"It's really useless for us to stay here"
Liu Tianqi said impatiently: "It's good to know, where did you get so much nonsense, let's go." ”
Four young girls who had cultivated to reach the realm of fusion were brave the locusts and went towards Nanshan.
Halfway through, in a place with a wide field of vision, Jiang Yuanjing looked in the direction of Gravel Village to the west.
Then, he glanced at Liu Tianqi meaningfully and said, "I think you'd better take a look at Gravel Village." ”
Everyone looked in the direction pointed by Jiang Yuanjing, and saw that the west was covered by the yellow-brown sky.
Gravel Village is out of sight.
The gravel river is out of sight.
The fields are gone.
As far as the eye can see.
There was only a patch of yellow-brown that was thick or uneven, and occasionally a few flashes of spiritual power flashed and broke through the cover of the locust swarm, but after a while, it was silent in more yellow-brown locust swarms.
Seeing this, Zhou Yongge smiled heartlessly, obviously very happy to see the disaster in Shili Village.
The main reason is that there is a lot of sediment on both sides of the river, and during the rainy season or when the snow melts in spring, the river is often diverted under flash floods.
As a result, there were frequent disputes between the two villages over the unclear boundaries of the fields after the diversion of the river, and even several armed fights broke out over the fields.
Zhou Liangcai once suffered a secret loss in the competition for land with Gravel Village, so Zhou Yongge did not have much good impression of Gravel Village.
