Chapter Ninety-Five: Breaking Bad
"Village chief, don't worry. Pen Fun Pavilion www.biquge.info tell me about the situation. Chen Xiao appeased the village chief, and ordered Luo Xiaocheng to call the four team leaders of Lux and Wu Tong and Gula to come over together.
Aberdeen took out the corpse of a strangely shaped insect, handed it to Chen Xiao and said: "This is a locust that covers the sky, as soon as it appears, there are tens of thousands, covering the sky and the earth, not only eating plants, but also animals and livestock. Very scary insect infestation. ”
Chen Xiao took the big fist "Covering the Sky Locust" and looked at it carefully.
This worm has sharp mouthparts, like a beetle, with a black hard shell and wings, an oval body, eight legs, a slightly smaller chest and feet, but the abdominal feet are very strong and powerful, with thick fingers, covered with sharp thorns, like the hind legs of a grasshopper.
"This insect plague happened once 20 years ago, and the locusts that covered the sky and ravaged the earth, and everywhere they passed, there was no grass growing at all, which was too terrifying. At that time, the crops were just ripe, but only part of them were harvested, and most of them were eaten by the pest. That winter, many people starved to death. ”
Remembering the pest crossing 20 years ago, Aberdeen still has lingering palpitations.
At this time, Lux and Wu Tong rushed over. Realizing the seriousness of the matter, Chen Xiao ordered: "Gather all the villagers and guards and step up the harvest of grain." ”
"My lord, most of the grain is not yet ripe, and it will take another month or so before the harvest can be harvested. Now that the grain is harvested, the villagers are afraid that they will not be able to. And with so much grain, it can't be harvested in half a day. ”
It was for this reason that Aberdeen hurriedly found Chen Xiao. He also had no choice.
As the "secretary of the village party committee", Chen Xiao can't ignore this matter, this is a political achievement related to people's livelihood, if it is not handled well, his official position the size of a bean may also be deprived by his superiors.
"Let's go. Let's go out and have a look. Chen Xiao led everyone out of the castle, and the guards had already pulled the Earth Dragon out.
Goodbye Wangcai, this guy looks stronger. Chen Xiao jumped on Wangcai's back neatly, and under the leadership of Aberdeen, he went to the farmland on the outskirts of the village to inspect the situation.
As soon as he left the village, Chen Xiao saw a locust descending from the sky and jumping in the field, so unhappy.
At present, there are no large numbers of locusts flying over, only a few of them, and the villagers who are working in the fields have hurriedly beaten these locusts to death with hoes.
Aberdeen, the village chief, said: "Wherever these insects pass, the crops will be infected with a scab disease, which will quickly grow spots and rot, which is very terrifying. ”
"Village chief, gather the villagers as soon as possible. When Chen Xiao heard this, he only felt that his brain was extremely big, so he had to bite the bullet and say: "Everyone has to take action." Tide over this together. ”
"Yes, sir. "Aberdeen has no choice at this time, now Chen Xiao wants him to do whatever he wants, he will do it, as long as he can survive this catastrophe.
Dong Xianxian also rushed to hear the news at this time. She had heard that several nearby villages were ravaged by locusts, and that a large number of locusts were coming to the village of Rodri, and the situation was very critical. In the face of such a terrifying insect infestation, Dong Xianxian was also powerless.
"Xianxian, you came just in time. When the time comes, there may be a lot of injured people after encountering insect infestations, and you will be troubled by then. Chen Xiao said with a frown.
He pondered carefully what plan could be used to effectively control these terrifying locusts.
Dong Xianxian nodded silently. Since she has met her, she is duty-bound.
Chen Xiao asked Wu Tong to catch two locusts that covered the sky and went back. These locusts are big and powerful, and Wu Tong wasted some hands and feet to catch them.
After all, the fist is a big bug, and it feels terrible to look at it.
He took limestone and sulfur, mixed 10 parts of water in a ratio of 1 to 2, and then heated and boiled, and the yellow-white sulfur lime water gradually darkened in color and turned dark brown, and also emitted a pungent odor.
Everyone watched as Chen Xiao finished the dark brown liquid in a bottle, then took out a syringe-like injector, extracted a tube of liquid, and sprayed it on one of the locusts.
The locust, which was originally alive and kicking, suddenly struggled violently, and after shaking twice, it became stiff, lifeless, and dead.
Seeing this, everyone couldn't help but gasp.
What kind of poison is this? If you spray it, it will make the tenacious locust burp!
Lux and Dong Xianxian had seen Chen Xiao use poison gas to poison Minks, and when they thought of it, they couldn't help but feel cold and shivered.
How does Chen Xiao know how to use so many poisonous methods?
Is this guy Breaking Bad?
They saw Chen Xiao grab another one that was jumping around and approached the dead locust.
I saw that the locust that was still alive seemed to see something terrifying, and let out a sharp moan, trying to desperately escape from the dead locust.
Unexpectedly, this lime sulfur mixture, also known as stone sulfur mixture, had a miraculous effect on the locusts, and Chen Xiao was unexpected.
He was purely lucky.
Without knowing how resistant the pests of this world are to pesticides, stone sulfur mixture is the easiest chemical pesticide he can think of.
Since the stone sulfur mixture is useful, Chen Xiao's grasp is a little greater.
"Mr. Chen, what is this?" Dong Xianxian looked at the bottle of dark brown liquid in surprise. She felt like she wasn't running out of her head.
She was well versed in medical books, and although she knew some poisons, she had never seen such poisons made only of ordinary limestone and sulfur.
What the hell is in this guy's brain, he will always make up such dangerous things.
"It's a pesticide. Chen Xiao smiled mysteriously, "There is not much time for us, and we have to hurry up the time before the Locusts have not crossed." ”
At this time, the scout sent had already sent a message that the locust had left the farmland of Xilu Village and flew to the side of Rodri Village, and it was estimated that it would arrive at the village's farmland in three to four hours.
He began to give out the task: "Wu Tong, Gula, you take fifty people and go to collect sulfur, that is, stinky stone, the more the better." At least 500 catties or more. If it's not enough, I'll go somewhere else and buy it back!"
"Yes!" Wu Tong and Gula hurriedly took the order, turned around and ran. This is a time of life and death for the entire village, and they have to complete the task no matter what.
Collect 500 catties of stinky stones in half an hour? Wu Tong and they felt that it would be faster to go to Walloon Mountain and dig directly.
However, it is a long way to go to the Walloon Mountains, and it is estimated that they have not yet reached the Walloon Mountains, and the locusts have already crossed the border, causing damage to the farmland and livestock of the village.
"Charles, Van Les, you take thirty men and go to Calus, and prepare at least a thousand pounds of limestone. Chen Xiao continued to order.
"Yes. Van and Charles hurriedly took the order, turned around and left.
Unconsciously, Chen Xiao, who was originally just an ordinary person, gradually developed the temperament of a leader.
Between gestures, he scolded Fang Xuan and dealt with it calmly.
It's a natural temperament, a convincing temperament.
