Chapter 198: Insect Plague (Ask for Subscription!) )

"Boss, Professor Pete has found that many pests have suddenly appeared in the Lingmai field, and the grain production may be greatly reduced, so it will return quickly."

It was Bonnie.

The content of this letter was very short, and there was only a short sentence on the letter, but it made Chen Feng anxious.

The reason why the City of the End is so prosperous, the population is constantly increasing, and the talent is recruited, partly because of Chen Feng's powerful pet army.

But more importantly, food is never a problem.

In particular, Lingmai can not only make people eat full, but also has the effect of strengthening the body, plus it is extremely delicious, if it is used for trading, it is definitely the ultimate weapon of the end city, even oil can't compare.

However, Lingmai is fundamentally due to the Heavenly Bull Essence.

If there is a problem in the spiritual wheat field, the foundations of the entire City of the End will be shaken.

This is definitely the big problem.

After Chen Feng finished reading it, he didn't delay any time, and just had time to send someone to inform Helena and Norman, he rode the Nightmare War Horse and rushed back to the City of the End without stopping.

Under Tony's speed in full swing, it only took less than half a day to return to the center of the end city.

Bonnie and Professor Pete were waiting for him in the conference room.

As soon as he entered the door, Chen Feng asked angrily, "How is the situation now?" Take me to the wheat field. ”

However, both of them sat in their seats, looking at Chen Feng with strange expressions, without the slightest intention of getting up, and they didn't see any anxiety.

Chen Feng was anxious, "What's the situation with the two of you?" If something so big happens, why don't you be in a hurry, don't tell me, you can't see the seriousness behind this. ”

Then Chen Feng thought about it and said angrily, "Don't say that all this is joking with me, in that case, I can't spare you two!" ”

The boss was furious, even the Minister of the Interior and the future boss's wife, and the Minister of Agriculture, a bigwig-level figure trembled, and quickly got up from the chair to explain.

"Boss, give me ten guts, I don't dare to joke with you, here's the thing......" Professor Pete scratched his head, and there was a feeling of making a big fuss.

It turned out that just three days ago, a scarlet ladybug began to appear sporadically in the Lingmai field, and many Lingmai were eaten by this ladybug.

On the first day, Professor Pete didn't take it to heart and just did a small quarantine.

Because according to past experience, Lingmai's adaptability is amazing, once there is a pest attack, it will quickly evolve a response method, generally speaking, it will be greatly suppressed on the second day, and it will be completely rid of the insect plague on the third day.

But the next day, Professor Pete was surprised to find that not only was the pest not suppressed, but it was intensifying, and the infestation had doubled in size.

The most terrifying thing is that this scarlet ladybug is not only surprisingly fecund, but also has a corrosive nature, and the spirit wheat that they have eaten will rot from the ears of wheat to the roots, and even leave eggs in the roots.

At this time, Professor Pete was in a hurry and called all the experts from the Ministry of Agriculture, but there was no way. I can't help myself, so I ask Bonnie to contact Chen Feng.

And on the third day, this morning, something magical happened.

Professor Pete hadn't slept well all night, and rushed to the wheat field to check on the latest situation, only to his surprise, the scarlet ladybugs had strangely disappeared, and the damaged spirit wheat had begun to recover.

At this rate, as long as one more day passes, not only will the insect plague be eliminated, but the yield of Lingmai will be even better than before.

"So...... Boss, it's not that we lied to you to come back, it's that things are moving too fast. Professor Pete threw his hands out helplessly.

"Well, you're saying the insect plague is gone? And Lingmai is better than the original? Chen Feng finally reacted.

The two nodded like pounded garlic.

"What did you find behind this?" Chen Feng asked. He must know the cause and take advantage of it so that he doesn't have to deal with it next time.

"Well, I found that in the insect plague of the Lingmai field, a kind of red grass grows under each Lingmai." At this point, Professor Pete's expression became even more eccentric. "What does Xiaocao say...... It looks like it's lived. ”

That's the crux of the matter!

Chen Feng suddenly became interested, "Let's go, take me to have a look." ”

……

……

Less than 2 kilometers from the center of the end of the city, there is a vast wheat field.

The wheat field is full of golden Lingmai, with a little green, the breeze blows, and the Lingmai undulates like a wave, which is extremely spectacular.

Chen Feng, led by Professor Pitt, came to the wheat field where the insect plague had originally erupted.

As the boss, he hadn't been here in person for a long time, and the scene in front of him made Chen Feng feel very novel.

"Boss, it's the grass, you see."

Professor Pete walked over to a lingmai and crouched down, and pulled it aside with his fingers slightly, revealing a red plant about knee-high.

Chen Feng squatted down and his eyes widened.

It's not so much a grass as a predator in the form of a plant.

The whole grass is very delicate, but it is very tough, and Chen Feng even suspects that if an adult cuts it with a sickle, it may not be able to cut it.

And the most surprising thing is that at the top of this plant, there is a "big mouth", which is made up of two leaves, and inside there are two rows of teeth!

And unlike the watchdog that was common in the old days, this predator is more flexible and can actively attack its prey.

For example, on the "chin" of the big mouth, there are two "tentacle"-like vines, and once entangled, no pest can escape.

There is no doubt that it was this sudden appearance of "cordyceps" that wiped out all the pests with astonishing speed.

So here's the problem.

Chen Feng stood up and asked Professor Pete, "Where did this grass come from?" ”

"I don't know." Professor Pete was also confused, "This is also the thing I don't understand the most, these grasses seem to have popped up out of nowhere, and they grow extremely fast, covering the entire wheat field in just one day, and it seems that they will never rob the Lingmai itself of nutrients." ”

Out of nowhere?

Extremely fast-growing?

Chen Feng suddenly remembered something, looked around, there were wheat fields all around, and then he roared loudly, "Cowherd, come to the master!" ”

Buzz Buzz –

Suddenly, there was a sound of wings vibrating at high speed in the distance, and then a guy with a dark golden body but the size of a basketball flew over quickly.

"This is the Cowherd? Why is it so big! ”

As they looked at the crustaceans getting closer, both Professor Pete and Bonnie let out a scream.

And Chen Feng curled the corners of his mouth, "It seems that it is the Cowherd who has solved our big trouble." And this little guy ...... It seems to have evolved. ”
