Chapter 191: Catching the Worm
The temperature in Beiguan is slightly colder than that in Chang'an, and the weather in September has been covered with bursts of autumn, but the autumn air is cool here, breathing without any polluted air, walking on the gravel road by the river, Huo Guang has a comfortable feeling in his heart.
In the blink of an eye, it has been a month since I came to Beiguan, and I walked into Wancheng in the welcome of the people in the snow treading snow, which seemed to happen yesterday, and it actually spanned the summer and autumn seasons.
Thinking about it when he was in his hometown, there should be a lot of delicious food at this time, Huo Guang went through the things he wanted to eat but couldn't eat one by one from his mind, and couldn't help but salivate in his mouth, and praised it in his heart, delicious, delicious.
Huo Guang, who was originally caught in the infinite obscenity of food, was pulled back to reality by a noisy voice not far away.
Huo Guang's gaze withdrew from the void and landed on the bustling crowd. They seemed to be pointing to something in the river, and their words were very agitated.
While listening to them and approaching them, Huo Guang probably understood, as if he had seen some worm, which seemed to affect the banker's harvest and was extremely unlucky. The conversation of this group of people successfully attracted Huo Guang's attention, he really wanted to know that there were other insects that were more feared by the common people than locusts?
With infinite curiosity and a spirit of exploration, Huo Guang quietly walked to the back of the crowd and probed in, wanting to take a closer look at this kind of terrifying and hateful insect that people said.
Before he could see clearly, an old woman beside him threw herself on the ground and began to cry.
"What should I do, this year's harvest is wasted again, damn the insects, my rice......"
Only then did Huo Guang hear that they were talking about insects, and the people were still in a state of extreme grief and indignation when they saw the insects that destroyed the rice, and they didn't notice that the horses were standing around them.
At this time, Huo Guang once again cast his eyes on the river, and the moment he saw what they said, his eyes were stunned, and the Adam's apple rolled subconsciously, and in an instant, another form of the insect was displayed in front of him, but this form was not gnawing rice but was placed on the table.
Originally...... It turns out that the insects they are talking about turned out to be river crabs.
I have to admire the growth ability of animals at this time, without any pollution and human interference, the beautiful river crabs have grown so big, Huo Guang conservatively estimated that each one was more than 4 taels, thinking about how they were tied up and steamed, he kept swallowing saliva.
The old woman was still wailing on the ground, and the other farmers around her went to comfort her, resuming that the field not far from the river was hers.
Huo Guang walked to the old woman's side, tried his best to restrain the excitement of seeing the delicacy, and said in an extremely gentle tone, "This is not an insect, it is called a crab." ”
This sentence obviously did not serve to comfort the old woman, she didn't care what this thing was called, she only cared about what would happen to the rice harvest she had worked so hard to sow, whether it would be because of this strange bug, and she didn't want to know if this thing was called a crab or a bug.
Huo Guang saw that the old woman didn't care about his words at all, and sighed softly, saying that he was also stupid, and he should be straightforward, so he straightened up and continued, "I can help you capture them." ”
As soon as these words came out, the old woman's eyes widened, but after looking at Huo Guang again, she lost confidence again, what can a handsome young man do to deal with the insects, "What can you do?" The old woman spoke her heart with some frustration.
Huo Guanggang wanted to explain why he was suddenly so sure behind him, and let out a scream, and Huo Guang's heart was shocked.
"Gunma! This is our county horse! ”
Then the person who spoke knelt on the ground and began to worship, and the others saw him kneeling, and then looked at Huo Guang's face, as if they saw a fairy, they also knelt down and kowtowed.
Huo Guang let out a long breath, she didn't like this kind of scene the most, she just wanted to take a good look at the crabs.
"Stupid woman, this is our county horse, you can not believe anyone's words, you must believe the words of the county horse, don't hurry up and bow down."
The old woman listened to the old man's words and knelt on the ground very quickly, "The old woman is stupid and doesn't know that the county horse is coming, and the county horse forgives the sin and forgives the sins." ”
Huo Guang stretched out his hand to help the old woman up, and then called everyone to get up too.
Originally, he wanted to explain to them that this thing can be eaten, and everyone can catch the crabs in their fields and eat them every day, but after thinking about it, it is estimated that these people will treat him as a neurotic thing, and he has been treated as a pest for so long, and today suddenly someone said that it is food, not to mention the simple people, even Huo Guang himself is difficult to accept.
He decided to appease the people first, only to tell them that he had a way to get rid of the crabs, and not to say anything else, so that they could go home in peace first.
Huo Guang said goodbye to these people and returned to the Changming Marquis Mansion as quickly as possible, just when he met Qiao'er who came out of Rong'an's room.
"Gunma, what's wrong with you?"
This question stunned Huo Guang, what's wrong with him? Not really, could it be that the expression on his face is weird?
Huo Guang froze and continued, "It's nothing...... No, it's a little something, but it's not a big deal..... Huo Guang didn't know what nonsense he was talking about, he coughed lightly twice, "Qiao'er, the people in the whole house have a good day today." Hurry up and call Wang Yi to me, hurry up, run! ”
No matter what happens in Qiao'er's heart, Junma can deal with it calmly, this is the first time that he is in a hurry and lets himself run to pass the word, no matter what it is, as long as it is the task assigned by Junma, it must be very important, Qiao'er runs too much and finds Wang Yi in one go.
Wang Yi saw Qiao'er's anxious expression, guessed that Jun Ma must have an urgent task to be assigned to him, and without any ambiguity, he strode towards Jun Ma's room.
It stands to reason that after passing the word, Qiao'er can do what to do, but she is not at ease, she wants to know what Junma is doing when he finds Wang Yi in such a hurry, whether she can help, is there a problem in the mall again? The more Qiao'er thought about it, the more uneasy she became, pacing back and forth outside the door.
After Wang Yi entered the door, he closed the door with his hand, Qiao'er couldn't hear it even if she wanted to, and it was not a good thing to lie on the crack in the door after all, she would not do it, so she could only wait patiently outside the door, and when she was 10,000 anxious, the door suddenly opened.
Wang Yi stepped out of the door with long eyebrows and a tight eyebrow.
Qiao'er hurriedly greeted her, "What is there such an urgent matter in Junma, is there something wrong with the mall?" ”
On the way here, Wang Yi also thought so, so he couldn't wait to change one step into two steps and rush over, but ......
Wang Yi suddenly stopped, turned his head to look at Huo Guang's room, and then said in an incredible tone, "Junma asked me to catch the insects ......"
