Chapter 006: Insect Removal
"Take beetle grass, mulberry leaves, locust bark and soak them in water overnight. ”
Lin Chen wrote down the prescription in his mind and hurriedly ran into the mountain, these three medicinal materials for making pesticides were very easy to find, and it didn't take long for him to pick a basket back.
Seeing Lin Chen picking a basket of weeds back, his mother asked curiously, "Xiao Chen, what are you doing when you come back from picking these weeds? ”
Lin Chen smiled and said, "This grass is not for livestock, it is used to kill insects." ”
"Killing insects?" the mother looked at the weeds in Lin Chen's hands suspiciously.
"Well, these grasses have a great use, they can kill those insects in the crops!" Lin Chen said with a smile.
"Is it really possible? The experts from the county came, but they all said no. The mother had a skeptical look on her face.
I don't know why, the mother suddenly felt as if her son had changed as a different person, and there was an unfathomable feeling.
Lin Chen smiled: "I don't know if it's okay or not, try it, otherwise it's a pity that everyone's hard-earned crops will be burned." ”
After a busy night's work, Lin Chen soaked all the three medicinal herbs into the vat, and secretly prayed in his heart that it would work.
Early the next morning, Lin Chen came to the vat early, lifted the lid, and there was a fragrant smell inside.
According to memory, this brewed medicine can not only kill insects, but also a kind of healthy tea, which is beneficial to the human body, but it is a deadly weapon against the gold beetle.
Lin Chen scooped a bowl of water and took a sip, which was really refreshing.
Then he poured the potion into the sprayer and walked towards the crops.
As soon as I walked to the crop field, I saw a group of people gathered around the crop field.
Lin Chen walked over, it turned out that these people were preparing to burn crops to get rid of insects.
Lin Sheng, the village head, said with a sad face to a middle-aged man with gold-wire glasses beside him: "Director Li, is there any other way, these crops are all the blood and sweat of the villagers, it would be a pity if they were burned." ”
Li Kun smiled bitterly: "This kind of golden beetle reproduces quickly and has strong drug resistance, even foreign experts can't do anything about them, what do you think I can do?"
"However, if this fire continues, the villagers will have a hard time in the second half of the year. Lin Sheng sighed.
Li Kun said helplessly: "Village Chief Lin, the decision to remove insects is from above, and we must obey the arrangements from above and do a good job of pacifying the villagers." ”
"Okay, let's light the fire!" Director Li waved his hand and ordered a village cadre to light a fire.
Seeing that these people were about to start burning the crops, Lin Chen hurriedly shouted, "Wait a minute!"
Seeing that someone was preventing the ignition, Li Kun couldn't help frowning.
At this time, Lin Chen had already walked in front of Li Kun and Lin Sheng and said, "Village chief, don't burn the crops first, I have a way to get rid of insects." ”
Li Kun glanced at Lin Chen and couldn't help but be angry: "Whose child came here to make trouble, even the experts can't do anything, what can you do as a child?"
Lin Sheng saw that Lin Chen was also a little dissatisfied: "Xiao Chen, stop messing around, go home quickly." ”
"Village chief, I really have a way to get rid of insects. Lin Chen said anxiously.
"Haha, you have a way to get rid of insects, what kind of school are children going to now!" Li Kun asked with squinted eyes.
"It's my third year of high school. Lin Chen replied.
Listening to Lin Chen's words, Li Kun's face changed suddenly: "Nonsense, do you know what kind of education I have? I am a graduate student of Huaxia Agricultural University, I can't help you, a high school student, can do it?"
"Haha, that's it, I think this kid is stupid. ”
"That's right, a bug that can't be killed by a graduate student, he can kill a high school student?"
"Lin Chen, didn't you wake up in the morning!"
Hearing the discussion of the surrounding villagers, Lin Chen couldn't help gritting his teeth and said to Li Kun: "Director Li, please give me a few minutes to do an experiment, this crop is the blood and sweat of the villagers, if you succeed, this is also your merit, if it fails, I will personally burn our family's field." ”
"The village chief asked Lin Chen to try it, yesterday I saw with my own eyes that he cured a girl's heart disease, maybe it really works. At this time, the second uncle Lin Shuang said.
"yes, why don't you try it, if you can't burn it again, it's too late. ”
This crop can be said to be the hard-earned money of the villagers, and no one wants to watch them burned.
Many people had heard about Lin Chen's rescue, so everyone had a glimmer of hope again.
"Okay, then you can give it a try. Li Kun nodded.
Although Li Kun still didn't believe that Lin Chen would have a way to kill these golden beetles, after all, now that the villagers had put their hopes on Lin Chen, if he insisted on refusing, it would definitely cause dissatisfaction among the villagers.
Lin Chen picked up the spray and sprayed it at a dense crop of golden beetles.
As the pesticide is sprayed, a fragrant smell comes out.
People all looked at the dense insects on the crops, but the insects that had been sprayed still crawled around on the crops, and it seemed that they were not affected by the drugs at all, and they seemed to be more excited instead of dying.
Li Kun sneered: "Little friend, it seems that your medicine doesn't work!"
"I'll just say, Director Li is a graduate student of Huaxia Agricultural University, he can't help it, how can a high school student have a way!"
"Well, kids are going to be grandiose now. ”
"It's a waste of feelings, a waste of everyone's time. ”
The expectant villagers around them shook their heads when they saw the failure of the pest control.
"Wait a minute. Lin Chen stared at those insects closely, but did not give up hope.
"What are you waiting for, do you have to wait for the worms to die of old age?" Li Kun said dissatisfiedly.
But as soon as his words fell, someone suddenly shouted: "Look at the worm's reaction." ”
"What?" Director Li hurriedly turned his gaze back to the crop.
Looking at the crackling insects falling to the ground, Li Kun was taken aback.
