As the torch in Mu Chenmo's hand was thrown down, the dark night lit up one by one like a lit street lamp, and the black locusts rushed towards the fire like moths fighting fire.

The more locusts flew more and more, and the smell of barbecued meat rushed into her nose, slowly turning into a burnt taste, Mu Chenmo remembered the taste of roasted grasshoppers with her grandmother's cousin in the village when she was a child in her previous life.

"Quick, put out the fire, the locust god will be angry."

An old man with dozens of villagers rushed up, digging and filling the burning fire pit with shovels and hoes in his hands, and Cheng Yatou and the officials desperately blocked it.

"Locust God, what do you care about the locust god if you are starving to death, old beard, let me tell you, you can't be confused anymore, folks, listen to me......"

Mu Chenmo looked at the farce in front of her coldly, she said that the locusts here didn't leave here, and they were all offered by these people, and their ignorant thoughts killed people.

"Cheng Yatou, Wu County's order said that as long as the emperor makes an edict against himself, the locust god will forgive our sins." The old beard kept filling the pit with a shovel.

Hearing his words, Qi Yu frowned, and let his father make an edict against himself, why hadn't he heard such a statement in the court, and there was no minister to see him.

"Master Li, you can't sit idly by, Hui Niang is so knowledgeable, she will definitely be able to persuade the emperor to make an edict against himself." The old beard pounced and knelt down in front of Master Li.

Looking at the skyrocketing firelight, Master Li stood stunned, the old beard dragged his robe and shook it, slowly lowered his head, and Master Li showed a smile that was more ugly than crying.

"Old beard, I lied to you, I lied to you."

The hand tugging at the robe froze somewhere, and the old beard's weather-beaten and wrinkled face was full of incredulity.

Neno repeated: "Lie to me, lie to us, how can it be." ”

"Smack." I don't know whose farm tool fell to the ground first, and the villagers looked at Master Li in a daze, unable to believe what he said.

Two lines of tears flowed, and the thin Master Li knelt in front of the people, Cheng Yatou stepped forward and helped him up, and whispered in his ear.

"Master Li, now is not the time, Wu County's order must have changed in the court, let's treat the locusts first and wait patiently."

Turning his head to look at Mu Chenmo and Qi Yu, Master Li knelt down and walked over and kowtowed to the two: "You are sent by the capital, please save the people here." ”

Hearing his words, Cheng Yatou was obviously stunned, and carefully looked at the two young people in front of him, the tall and lazy with nobility, and the short heroic and fierce eyes looked at Master Li with disdain.

Seeing that the muscles of the two horses following behind him were well-proportioned and streamlined, they were obviously good BMW horses, and their dark and cyan clothes were dark like flowing water sliding with their movements under the light of the fire.

Mu Chenmo and Qi Yu glanced at each other, and the corner of Mu Chenmo's mouth provoked a sneer: "Master Li, we can't stand your kneeling, please get up." ”

Qi Yu glanced at Mu Chenmo helplessly, walked in front of Master Li, and stared at him condescendingly.

"There is no Lingyunzhi, but there is no evil guts, Master Li, I have been reading poetry and books for decades, and the books have been read in the dog's belly......"

Mu Chenmo raised his eyebrows and looked at Qi Yu in surprise, he didn't find that this person still had the potential to be a teacher, and what he said seemed to be more effective than his own to hit a scholar.

"Ahh

Ignoring Qi Yu and Master Li, Mu Chenmo turned her head to look at the fire pit locusts still flying in one after another, and a locust flew in front of her eyes.

Reaching out to grab one, Mu Chenmo was surprised to find that the color of this locust was cyan, and a stream of water immediately gushed out of his mouth and swallowed it.

"Qi Yu, don't waste time with him, hurry, I found something delicious."

Everyone who heard it looked at Mu Chenmo, Qi Yu stopped preaching to Master Li and walked to her side.

"What did you find? So excited. ”

The cyan locust in his hand stretched out in front of Qi Yu's eyes: "Quick, come with me to find locusts of this color." ”

After speaking, he swallowed a mouthful of spit unconsciously, and casually pulled a dry branch on the tree to penetrate through the locust's abdomen, and then began to grab the next one.

Shaking his head, Qi Yu grabbed it with Mu Chenmo, and Master Li knelt on the ground and watched the two wipe the tears from their faces.

There was a dead ash in his eyes, Qi is the surname of Daqi, Yu is the name of the seven princes today, Qi Yu, the seven princes are here, I don't know if the people of Wei County are a blessing or a curse.

Looking at Mu Chenmo's figure, there was a glint of hope in his eyes, I heard that the Seventh Prince had completely changed his mind since he married General Mu, and there was no trace of embarrassment.

Could it be that the young man with sharp eyes and disdain could be the legendary General Mu who frightened the Huns, if she really came to the people of Wei County, she would have been saved.

The locusts on the branches had changed from one to a bunch, Mu Chenmo squatted on the edge of the fire pit and roasted it, and when the cyan turned yellow, a smell of roasted meat came out.

Under the eyes of everyone, Mu Chenmo tore off one and chewed it, a crunchy sound sounded, and the familiar aroma of the chewy taste filled the entire taste buds.

A string of roasted locusts was quickly eaten, and the sound of swallowing saliva sounded all around.

Qi Yu tore off one like Mu Chenmo, rolled his throat and put it in his mouth with his eyes closed, chewed it twice and quickly swallowed another one, and the action was so fast that people smacked their tongues.

Cheng Yatou came to the two of them and scratched his head embarrassedly: "That, can you let me taste it?" ”

Mu Chenmo handed the skewered locusts in his hand to Cheng Yatou, tilted his head at the fire, Cheng Yatou understood in seconds, took the locusts and ran to the fire to roast them.

The other officials and the people looked at the movements of several people and were at a loss, and Mu Chenmo grabbed another string and gave it to the young officer.

"Let's go bake it, it's delicious."

The young servant took it mechanically, looked at Cheng Yatou, who had already started eating, gritted his teeth and walked over.

Cheng Yatou turned his head to look at the corner of his mouth, when there was a grasshopper leg, it looked hideous and weird under the light of the fire, but the words he said made people cry and laugh.

"Your kid is here too, hurry up and roast it, I really didn't know this thing was so fragrant, it was so fucking delicious, brother, I have a conscience, let you taste it first."

Before the young servant could reply, he was stuffed with one in his mouth, chewed it twice in horror, and roasted it happily.

Mu Chenmo, who had eaten two skewers, clapped his hands, walked in front of Qi Yu, raised his chin and looked at him arrogantly, Qi Yu smiled softly at her.

"Mo'er, this locust tastes good."

Giving Qi Yu a look of course at that time, Mu Chenmo thought that the price of locusts in his previous life was higher than that of ordinary meat.

Finally, a young man walked up to Cheng Yatou, turned his head to him and only swallowed his saliva, Cheng Yatou looked at the remaining half of the locusts and stuffed them directly into his hand.

"Eat, it's not worse than chicken, duck and fish." Turned around and ran in front of Mu Chenmo: "Little brother, is this locust edible and not?" ”

Mu Chenmo nodded and grabbed a blackened one and pinched it to death, and just wanted to catch the cyan one that flew by, but Qi Yu grabbed her hand and wiped her hands with a handkerchief.

embarrassed to withdraw his hand: "The cyan ones can be eaten, the black ones are poisonous, and locust plagues generally turn black, I don't know what the situation is here, there are still cyan ones." ”

Cheng Yatou hugged his fist at Mu Chenmo and ran in front of the officials, and the young officials ran over with roasted locusts, and one of them stuffed one in his hand.

Mu Chenmo looked at them amusedly, shook his head, and pulled Qi Yu to take the clouds and walked in the direction of the county seat: "Where are we staying tonight." ”

"I think the county government is good, let's live somewhere." Qi Yu smiled at Mu Chenmo.

Mu Chenmo nodded and turned over on the horse, Qi Yu immediately followed, and the two disappeared from everyone's sight.

Cheng Yatou helped Master Li up and forced a roasted locust into his mouth.

"Master Li, this thing eats our grain, and we eat them as food, not to mention that it tastes really good."

Except for a few elderly people, the young people were aroused by Cheng Yatou's words, and shouted loudly to arrest them.

Gritting his teeth and chewing and swallowing the locusts in his mouth, the depression in Master Li's heart was swept away, and General Mu used his body as an example to tell them that this thing could be eaten.
