Chapter 65: The Return of Glory
Chen Chu is a little stupid, but he doesn't even know who Du Ruhui is.
When the time comes, I will see that Lao Du is a thief playing with them in the crowd, and after a little guessing, everyone's identities will be exposed together.
So both of them slipped away, excused themselves because they were busy with official business, and deliberately went to other directions to inspect.
The two of them were very ashamed in their hearts, at least from the rules of officialdom, Chen Chu was another envoy appointed by His Majesty, and it was impossible for the two of them to avoid it anyway.
But there is no way, I can only hope that Chen Chu will not care about this matter.
Chen Chu said regretfully: "Don't you smell the smell in the air?" The locust swarm here has already produced group toxins, at least in the core area, which can no longer be eaten, and will be poisoned. ”
Eat???
The corners of the county guard's mouth twitched, and he was still inexplicable when he heard General Su just say that they were eating locusts on the road.
Eat it, what's the matter with him, you have a kind of you eat, I don't accompany you.
I didn't think that this Majesty's appointed Doctor of Conquest, he opened his mouth to eat locusts, do you have a cat disease?
We are not short of food, can you not mention this topic?
"This lord, you seem to be very disgusted by the topic of eating locusts, Your Majesty eats it, don't you eat it?"
Chen Chu asked, even if the locust plague can be stopped, the end of the event requires the people of Guanzhong to deal with a large number of remaining locusts, isn't it a waste if you don't eat it?
When the time comes, it will be delicious and save food, and it can change people's minds, why don't you eat it, you must eat it for me!
The county guard really wants to turn around and run,, this Lord Chen is difficult to serve.
I heard that he has no official status in the court, but he has a knighthood, and now that his majesty has been moved out, he is finished, and he is afraid that he will not be able to run away this time.
"Don't say anything, I'm going to be fully armed now, let's start fighting now."
Chen Chuhao said dryly, with high morale.
The wheels of history are rolling in and cannot be resisted.
Even if you cross by yourself, the locust plague still happens, but because you, or specifically ***** presence, you can change the direction of the locust plague plot.
Keeping it far away from Chang'an and avoiding a long follow-up disaster can also be regarded as saving my people in the Tang Dynasty.
Then, for the first time, the soldiers and civilians of Longxi saw this terrifying flame called an artifact, burning in the air.
The entire air was suppressed, the orangutans were in place, and a violent heat wave swept in all directions.
The soldiers and civilians were frightened and fled frantically.
Even Fang Du, the two people who were quietly observing, were so frightened that they almost fell off their horses.
Because the locusts in the core area were really arrogant and crazy, they actually moved forward against the flames, Chen Chu did not give an inch, and went deep into it with the *****, and the flames did not grow a single inch of grass!
Su Dingfang and the others held their shields and risked death to go deeper, feeling how small their lives were.
They could be swallowed up by locusts that were so dense that they almost seemed to be trapped in quicksand, or they could be burned into char by Lord Chen's flames.
"Die, die to me!"
Chen Chu pulled the trigger and didn't let go, and the flames erupted one after another.
Little by little, the swarms of locusts that materialized like city walls were swallowed up, and the coke piled up even formed into hills two or three meters high.
The air was about to be burned out, Su Dingfang coughed repeatedly, hugged Chen Chu, who had turned off the flames, and ran back.
With their help, Chen Chu fought bravely on the edge of the core group of locusts, and the flames were like the most terrible demons in the world, controlling the movement of the core of the locust swarm.
When the sky was completely bright, people were shocked to find that the core of the locust swarm had retreated!
The miracle of Lord Chen forcing back the locust swarm alone was staged again in Longxi!
The soldiers made a suggested chariot, and a dozen strong men carried Chen Chu and his artifact, all the way to the west, chasing down the core locust swarm according to Chen Chu's wishes.
Along the way, Fang Du and the others ordered all the soldiers and civilians to follow up and frantically hunt down the rest of the locust swarm.
And the swarms of locusts without toxins that were caught were fried according to Chen Chu's way of eating and the condiments provided, and everyone was given food to eat.
It wasn't until noon that Chen Chu and his entourage returned, and they retreated far away from Chen Cang to repair on the top of a mountain where the air was fresh again.
"Grandma's, I unilaterally announced that the locust plague in Guanzhong has basically been resolved."
In front of Chen Chu was a real-time map of locusts made by officials at all levels.
It can be seen that according to their tracking observations, the two locust swarms in Jingyang and Longxi have deviated from their original directions, and some of the remnants are flying to the northwest, and some are rewinding to the southwest and west.
The direction they went to was the direction of the grassland desert, Hexi, and the snow-capped mountains, and they were not native to the Tang Dynasty, and there were other forces.
There is a small chance that the locust swarm will regain momentum, because Chen Chu will follow up once and burn all the insect egg gathering areas once.
The direction in which the locust swarms retreated was not conducive to the survival of the locust swarms, and would certainly deal a huge blow to the local country, but it would not spread again.
This can be said to be the result that is most conducive to the current situation of Datang.
Beer was piled up, buckets of sweet pure water were neatly arranged, dishes stir-fried in a wok exuded a deadly aroma, and corn cobs were pulled out by the soldiers in the fire, regardless of their hot hands, and they were shared.
Here, Chen Chu took out a large number of delicacies and rewarded everyone.
also rewarded himself for his heroic fight this time, he didn't expect himself to be so bullish.
But in the final analysis, it is the system that is powerful, and giving him such a big killer weapon is more than enough to deal with the locust plague.
After going back, this thing will be sealed, don't take it out if you don't have to, it's too dangerous, and he's afraid.
In the next two days, Chen Chu ran in a carriage in several directions, and the barren and miserable things he saw along the way were devastated, and everything was eaten up by locusts.
This is to restore food production, and some Datang is busy, but this has nothing to do with him.
The flames continued to erupt, and in places suitable for the survival of insect eggs such as riverbeds, there were even dense larvae that could not fly in some places, and all of them were burned to Chen Chu.
On the morning of the third day, the convoy began its return journey.
Chen Chu called this return a glorious return, of course, there is no need to say such shameful words, just crooked in his heart.
I don't know how Li Er, the emperor, should reward me?
Chen Chu thought in his heart, money? Can't look down on it, right? It's useless for him to come, and he is often responsible for taking on the corresponding responsibilities when he is given an official position.
Therefore, this kind of official must not be a pawn.
Like the Marquis of Wannian County and the middle doctor, you can give as many titles as you want, and we will not be stingy, which will help improve his social status and not be afraid of being bullied.
He couldn't imagine any good of the rest of the mess, forget it.
It's good to be happy, just a mere Li Er, what good can I get? As long as you don't give me such an errand without my consent in the future, I will thank you for the eight generations of ancestors.
