Liu Xin knew that if he wanted to fulfill the grand wish he had made, he would have to face all kinds of natural disasters and solve the plague that was prevalent in the late Eastern Han Dynasty, which was collectively known as "typhoid fever", as well as the locust plague one after another!

Liu Xin naturally has no way to stop these various natural disasters, so he can only passively accept them; And this "typhoid fever" plague is the general name of the dozens of plagues that occurred in the late Eastern Han Dynasty, although the performance of these plagues is summarized in the official records, but Liu Xin is a doctor, so Liu Xin knows that every plague cannot be exactly the same, so Liu Xin needs to collect enough information first, and Su Jia also needs to obtain enough samples from the place where the plague occurred for analysis, so in terms of the "typhoid fever" plague, Liu Xin can only put it aside for the time being, after all, he is now powerless; Finally, there is the locust plague, although the location of the locust plague is not in Yizhou, so it is not within Liu Xin's jurisdiction, but Liu Xin can now save the country, Liu Xin has made a plan, as long as enough crop seeds are cultivated, Liu Xin will promote these crop seeds from the future to the entire Han Dynasty.

After all, the root cause of the locust plague is still from the locusts, and if the locusts cannot be solved, then no matter how high the yield of future crop seeds is, there is no way to completely solve the crisis caused by the locust plague.

Liu Xin and Su Jia understand this very well, and this is the only thing Liu Xin can do at present.

The first way Liu Xin thought of was to tell Emperor Han Ling about the locust plague in advance when he met Emperor Han Ling, hoping to attract Emperor Han Ling's attention.

Of course, Liu Xin didn't expect Emperor Ling of Han to make any effective measures to prevent locust plagues, or to open warehouses and release grain in time to help the victims.

After all, Emperor Han Ling has lived in his own world, surrounded by a "wall" established by the Ten Standing Attendants, isolating Emperor Han Ling from the outside world, and those court officials who have the ability to enter the "wall" to communicate with Emperor Han Ling have chosen not to mention the locust plague for various reasons, but instead sang praises to Emperor Han Ling, so that Emperor Han Ling thought that his "rule by inaction" had successfully moved the heavens, so God did not send down the locust plague, as for the ten permanent servants and those court officials, The locust plague did not have much effect on them, so what did it have to do with those who died because of the locust plague?

This is just like the story of a man who killed another person with a knife, and when this person was taken to the county government for trial, he opened his mouth and quibbled: "It was this knife that killed that person, so I did not kill that person!" ”

The locust plague is like a sharp blade, the people of the world are the unarmed and powerless to resist the killed, and those who know and do not report the ten permanent servants and court officials are the ones who kill people with knives, as for Emperor Han Ling, they are the county officials who are so confused that they can't distinguish between right and wrong.

Therefore, Liu Xin can be sure that Emperor Ling of the Han Dynasty may not know how many natural disasters and man-made disasters have occurred in the Han Dynasty under his reign.

However, why does Liu Xin still plan to remind Emperor Han Ling, the reason is very simple, Liu Xin needs to take advantage of the general trend of Emperor Han Ling, after all, Emperor Han Ling is still the only ruler and dictator of the entire Han Dynasty in name, so the instructions issued by Emperor Han Ling are still authoritative, and Liu Xin can use this to better control the locust plague and avoid some unnecessary troubles.

Moreover, without the instructions of Emperor Ling of the Han Dynasty, he rescued the locust without permission, or dealt with the locust plague, these are all methods to win the hearts of the people, that is, an attempt to rebel, so Liu Xin didn't want to work hard to control the locust plague, but he was stabbed in the back by someone, and he was charged with attempting rebellion!

Therefore, no matter what, Liu Xin, the tiger skin banner of Emperor Han Ling, must get his hands on it, so that Liu Xin can rest assured.

On the other hand, Liu Xin also hopes to take this opportunity to "beat" Emperor Han Ling, so that Emperor Han Ling knows how the ten permanent servants he trusts are hiding the problem from him, which can be regarded as planting a seed of suspicion in the heart of Emperor Han Ling, when exposing the conspiracy of Taiping Dao in the future, if those ten permanent servants of Zhao Zhong's faction want to speak out to cover up for Taiping Dao, then don't blame Liu Xin for borrowing a knife to kill people, and let Emperor Han Ling take action to deal with these big Han moths!

So, Liu Xin silently added a note to the notebook where he met Emperor Han Ling.

However, just seeking the help of Emperor Ling of the Han Dynasty is far from enough to control the locust plague, and the crop seeds cultivated by Liu Xin must first meet their own needs, and then they can be gradually promoted to the entire Han Dynasty, so it takes a lot of time to prepare and arrange.

And the most important point is to mobilize the determination of the people in the disaster area to fight the locust plague, otherwise Liu Xin is just busy here to deal with the locust plague, and the people in the disaster area are still resigned to fate, Liu Xin has no way to deal with the locust plague even if he is tired and vomits blood.

As mentioned earlier, people in the Eastern Han Dynasty had a very strange understanding of locusts, they did not think that locusts were ordinary insects, but a punishment from heaven, so many people had an inexplicable respect for locusts, thinking that locusts were messengers of heaven, so there was also a worship of locusts, and the locust god also came into being.

The reason for this situation is that the locusts come and go without a trace, the number is huge and the speed of movement is extremely fast, when millions of locusts gather together, the scene is simply obscuring the sky and the sun, the sky is dark, like the end of the world, and ordinary people, or anyone in the face of such a locust plague, seem small and fragile, and have no power to resist!

However, these are also because of the limitations of the times, the Han people do not understand the essence of the locust plague, to be precise, they should not understand the living habits of locusts, so they will have misunderstandings about locusts, and ancient human beings like to exaggerate things that they can't recognize, so as to form myths, in order to cover up their own powerlessness in the face of these things, in the spirit to achieve the purpose of comforting themselves, which is why the older the era, the more myths appear, and the older the myths, The more powerful the characters that appear in it, the more terrifying the disasters that occur, and in the Song Dynasty myth "Saying Yue" (it is said that there are two versions of the book "Saying Yue", a mythological version and an ordinary version, and moreover), Yue Fei's "combat effectiveness" is obviously not as strong as some soy sauce players in the god list, as for going further, martial arts stories have replaced myths to some extent.

The reason for this is that with the development of history, people's understanding of the things around them has become deeper and deeper, and some phenomena that could not be explained before have been studied very thoroughly and the veil of mystery has been revealed, so the original mystery has been lost.

Just as Liu Xin was now revered by the people of the Han Dynasty as an immortal master, if it is changed to the twenty-first century, Liu Xin is either a chemist or a magician.

Therefore, how to teach the Han people to correctly recognize locusts is the most important part of Liu Xin's control of locust plagues!

Locusts are what we commonly call "grasshoppers", because they have chewing mouthparts, so the devouring speed is extremely fast, fortunately, locusts are a kind of herbivorous insects, if it is a carnivorous insect, then the locust is a "piranha" flying in the air, and the threat to humans will be greater; But thinking about it carefully, Liu Xin remembered that many of the apocalyptic texts he had read were about insects becoming gigantic and endowed with the characteristic of carnivorousness.

There are 12,000 species of locusts in the world, and locusts can be found all over the world except in the cold zone.

The locusts common in China have short whip-shaped antennae, strong hind legs, and can use bouncing to avoid natural enemies (friends who caught locusts when they were children have seen it, anyway, the author often went back to his hometown on vacation when he was a child, and he liked to catch locusts and bees with his friends, and he could fill a mineral water bottle every time), of course, the locust's flying ability is also good.

The body color of locusts is also roughly divided into green and brown according to the different environment, which are the protective colors of locusts.

In the summer and autumn of each year for the locust breeding season, and generally in 20 days to a month can hatch larvae, the life span is about two to three months, and there are two batches of summer and autumn, and summer and autumn these two seasons happen to be the two most important seasons of agricultural production.

Therefore, when the larvae of locusts reach adulthood, they can eat all kinds of crops, which has a serious impact on agriculture, especially in ancient times, crops were mostly leaf plants, which happened to be the favorite of locusts, so locust plagues can often make an area without harvest.

The production mode of locusts is oviparous, and the female locusts will choose to lay eggs in a place with a water source after mating, and the female locusts will insert the oviposition tube into the soil at a depth of about 10cm (yes, a full 10cm oviposition tube), and each female locust can lay about 50 eggs, and when laying eggs, the female locust will secrete a white substance to form a cylindrical plug, and then lay the eggs, so as to ensure the success rate of hatching locust eggs.

Locusts have large mouths and well-developed jaws, so they basically feed on the leaves of plants, and most of the locusts are born in river marsh areas, so the locusts in the juvenile stage like to eat reeds, barnyard grass, white grass, dogtooth grass and artemisia plants.

And the juvenile locusts can also be concealed with the help of tall plants such as reeds, and then when they mature, the locusts in a certain area will gather and begin to fly to feed, and then the people can find the locusts, so the locusts appear suddenly in the eyes of the people.

And the locust crossing is no joke, and the more locusts there are, the faster the locust swarm moves, because the locust swarm can eat the food of a certain area at a very fast speed, and then merge with other locust swarms to go to the next area to eat, so the locust plague is like a snowball, the number of locust swarms is increasing, and the speed of locust swarms is getting faster and faster!

At the end of their lifespan, locusts will die silently after reproduction, and basically die in the process of feeding, so they will fall into all kinds of grass and rivers, so in the eyes of the people, the locusts will disappear out of thin air again.

Therefore, the habit of locusts coming without a shadow and leaving without a trace made people deify locusts in ancient times, and the current Han Dynasty is the peak period of deification.

Therefore, Liu Xin felt that it was necessary for him to correct these people's misconceptions about locusts!
