Seeing Chen Jue's sincere gaze, Zhuge Liang hesitated.

Could it be that this locust is really delicious?

The two looked at each other......

Zhuge Liang frowned and pinched one, stuffed it into his mouth with great difficulty, and chewed it with some disgust.

"Huh? Chicken flavor? ”

Stuffed another one in, Zhuge Liang said uncertainly.

Chen Jue shrugged his shoulders and replied:

"The owner of this village has long said that this fried locust tastes good, and you can't eat it outside."

The corners of Zhuge Liang's mouth twitched slightly, who would eat locusts outside?

We're serious people.

Then he took another one, looked at it with some curiosity, and asked with a puzzled expression:

"This locust is not small, where did you catch it?"

Chen Jue thought about it and said casually:

"It's in the mountains, and I've heard that there have been quite a few recently."

Zhuge Liang was stunned, and Chen Jue looked at each other in astonishment......

"Where are so many locusts on the mountain?"

The two spoke in unison.

After a moment of silence, Chen Jue said:

"What do you think, Lao Zhu?"

Zhuge Liang sighed and hesitated:

"There are so many locusts on the mountain, let alone anywhere else, I'm afraid the mountain has already flooded."

Chen Jue's expression was slightly condensed, and he said:

"If there is really a locust plague, this matter is really a bit troublesome, and those people under the mountain ......"

Qingyunzhai has a systematic ban, and locusts can only wreak havoc in the mountains, but they can't endanger the cottage.

But the people under the mountain all rely on the farmland to live, and the life and death of the whole family depend on it.

If you are plagued by locusts and your months of labor are ruined, it will not be easy to live.

At this moment, the two reached a consensus.

Chen Jue didn't delay time, and hurriedly shouted:

"A few of you go down the mountain to see, what is the situation now, I hope the owner of the village guessed wrong."

A few villagers were a little puzzled, but they still went as they were told.

The owner of the village is their god, and there is no need for a reason to obey orders.

Zhuge Liang shook his head slightly and reminded:

"Although I don't want to, but the locust plague is unavoidable, so I still have to think about how to reduce the damage.

If the disaster is already happening at this moment, then we must find a way to help the disaster, and we must not sit idly by. ”

Zhuge Liang looked at Chen Jue, and the choice was on him.

Chen Jue didn't hesitate for too long, nodded and said:

"As long as he does what he can, the owner of the village will not shirk, let alone care about the lives of the people."

Zhuge Liang was inexplicably relieved.

If Chen Jue really ignores this matter, he will most likely try to leave, and at most he will return some favors.

Zhuge Liang stayed in Qingyunzhai, in addition to some technology, but also because of the cottage itself.

And Chen Jue's answer is undoubtedly gratifying.

The atmosphere was a little awkward at the moment.

Chen Jue smiled bitterly and said:

"Now that you've tasted them all, let's eat a few more."

Zhuge Liang thought for a moment and replied:

"Well, I'll try it later."

The two didn't say much, but ate by themselves.

The plate full of fried locusts has bottomed out in a blink of an eye.

After eating a plate of fried locusts, the two sat contentedly, actually waiting for news from the villagers.

And so it went on for an hour.

The villagers who had just been sent finally rushed back and said anxiously:

"The owner of the village, it's a big deal, there are so many locusts!"

Chen Jue reassured:

"Don't worry, what's going on now?"

The villagers breathed a sigh of relief and continued:

"When we went down the mountain to check, it was already a mess outside, and all the crops had been eaten.

Those big locusts flew around in swarms and in the dark, and the posture was really terrifying. ”

This is not good news.

It's even broken to the extreme!

Listening to the description of the villagers, you can see that this locust plague is so big that it can definitely be called terrifying.

The power of the locust plague is terrifying.

In the blink of an eye, a field can be swept away, leaving a mess all over the place.

The people without the harvest are separated from death.

Chen Jue looked at Zhuge Liang and hesitated:

"Lao Zhu, do you have any way?"

Zhuge Liang thought for a moment and replied:

"The situation at the foot of the mountain is so urgent, it should be necessary to prepare for disaster relief, I will go with the owner of the village to see."

Chen Jue said:

"Okay, just do what you say, Lao Zhu."

Immediately afterwards, Chen Jue looked at the villagers and ordered:

"Immediately go to the warehouse to check how much grain is stored now, and inform the owner of the village later."

The villagers took the order and did not dare to delay.

After the arrangements were made, Chen Jue and Zhuge Liang got up.

And take a hot air balloon ride down the mountain quickly.

Only when I got to the outside of the cottage could I see the black shadow when I took the opportunity.

Dense swarms of locusts flew through the farmland and devoured the food grown by the people.

Many people fell to their knees and cried.

Their eyes are full of despair, and they don't know if they can live, or choose to do a hundred things.

The most painful thing in life.

It's nothing more than looking at precious things, being wantonly crushed and taken away, but they can't do anything to watch.

Such a huge locust plague is simply impossible for manpower to resist.

Just when Chen Jue's expression was cold, a system prompt sounded in his ears:

"Congratulations to the host, the development of Qingyunzhai has begun to take shape, and it is time to expand its influence outward.

Please ask the host to solve the locust plague as soon as possible, win the praise and gratitude of the people, and then promote the development of Qingyunzhai.

Mission duration: fifteen days.

Reward: [Enhancement Pill]. ”

Even if there is no system task, Chen Jue will try his best to solve it, and there will be more benefits at this moment.

The tasks issued by the system have a wide range of goals.

After all, if you want to solve the locust plague, in addition to the people who are affected at the moment, you have to find a way to get rid of the locusts.

It is necessary to provide relief to the victims as far as we can, but how can we eradicate the locusts?

If these locusts are allowed to wreak havoc, it is not only here that will suffer, but also people in other places.

The time given by the system is quite generous.

Zhuge Liang looked at the messy farmland and said with emotion:

"After this hardship, I don't know how many people have been displaced?"

Chen Jue waved his hand and said:

"Lao Zhu, don't worry too much, there is the owner of the village here, there is no big problem."

Zhuge Liang nodded solemnly.

After looking around, Chen Jue drove the hot air balloon down and wanted to ask the farmers about the situation.

These locusts are really arrogant, and they even rush towards the hot air balloon, looking like they have eaten everything.

It's a pity that the hot air balloons are made of special materials, how can they be so easy to bite, and it doesn't hurt to let them unleash.

Soon, Chen Jue and the others landed successfully.

They had just flipped down the basket when they noticed that everyone was behaving strangely, with a blazing light in their eyes......

Someone muttered:

"I should be right, they came down from the sky, could it be that the gods have appeared?"

Someone shouted:

"Surely they can't be wrong, they are immortals."

Someone else chimed in:

"God knows that there is a plague of locusts, so he deliberately let the immortals come down to earth, and it is equivalent to fire and water to save me."

Soon the crowd echoed, and the people gathered.

They looked at the confused two, and suddenly fell to their knees:

"Two great immortals, save us!"

"Help us......"

The crowd shouted incessantly, and their tones were unusually mournful.

Chen Jue and Zhuge Liang looked at each other.
