At one time, about twenty people took a step forward.

Wu Kun was also in the crowd.

Ning Bei is talking about sharp legs and feet, he just lacks an arm, and his legs and feet can still be used.

After these things that happened today, Wu Kun was also impressed by Ningbei.

Because most men in their twenties and thirties were unwilling to stay in the village, they chose to work in the county.

And now there can be more than 20 people, which is really beyond Ningbei's expectations.

But it's just right that there are more people.

Ning Bei looked at the men in front of him, and after making sure that their legs and feet were all in good condition, he walked up to Liu Cunzheng and said a few words to Liu Cunzheng.

Liu Cunzheng reacted immediately, and then said loudly:

"There are locust plagues in several surrounding villages, so I need people to help them."

"How to help, our great benefactor will tell you."

Although in the battle against the locust plague, a great victory has been fought.

But when Liu Cunzheng mentioned the locust plague, there were still many villagers who were disgusted by the locusts!

There is no way, the fear of the locust plague is too great!

Even now that there are means to cure the locust plague, they are still afraid that the locust plague will sweep in.

This fear may have to improve slowly, or it may take a few more locust feeds to improve.

"How I deal with the locust plague today, everyone should see clearly."

As he spoke, Ning Bei looked at the more than twenty men in front of him.

"Do you see clearly?"

More than twenty men nodded together.

The method is actually very simple, that is, to burn with fire.

Ning Bei continued: "Then now we need the two of you to form a team and go to various villages to help. ”

"We have two tasks, one is to burn the locusts, and the other is to tell the villagers that the thoroughly cooked locusts are edible."

"Okay, that's all I have to say, do you hear me?"

"Clear!"

"Then everyone is leaving, and I am looking forward to everyone returning to the village with a few cages of locusts."

Liu Cunzheng motioned to his grandson to bring the fire fold in the kitchen.

Other villagers who were close to their homes also returned to their homes and brought the fire folds.

If you want to burn locusts, the most inseparable thing is fire!

After taking the fire fold, more than 20 people set off solemnly.

And the second child stayed where he was until Liu Cunzheng called him.

"Erxiao, aren't you leaving? If you don't go, you won't be able to keep up with them. ”

Er Xiao only reacted at this time, and looked at Liu Cunzheng with some incredulity, and he couldn't help muttering:

"Liu Cunzheng! What did you just say...... Can the locust god eat? ”

In order to make a living, their village has also killed many locusts.

But eat locusts...... This is definitely something that he and even the whole village dare not think.

Dare to eat the locust god, you are tired of being crooked!

"yes, you can eat it."

Liu Cunzheng smiled and nodded.

As if thinking of something, he smiled again and said:

"You'd better go fast now, or you won't be able to eat 'meat' in a while."

The more he listened, the more confused he became.

"Meat? Brought meat? ”

"Everyone is poor these days, how can there be meat to eat?"

Liu Cunzheng smiled and said nothing, he said everything that should be said, if the second child didn't leave, he wouldn't be able to eat locust meat at the party.

Seeing that the villagers had almost left, the second elementary school left Xiaolianzi Village with doubts and incomprehension.

He also has food at home waiting for him to harvest!

Don't waste any more time!

However, when he thought of the locust plague in the sky, Erxiao's face became more and more gloomy.

This year's winter is definitely going to be difficult!

In other words, Liu Cunzheng is really generous and stingy.

Generously, he sent people to help from several surrounding villages!

Stingy, only two men to help in a village.

Two people...... What's the use of that?

These two people went slowly, and they might not even be able to harvest the family's food......

What good can this be?

But Liu Cunzheng sent someone to help, and he couldn't say anything yet.

In short, I was a little speechless......

However, when Er Xiao returned to his village, he was stunned when he looked at the magnificent sea of fire.

"This ...... What the hell is going on? ”

The field is on fire?

This was the first thought in Erxiao's mind.

However, Yu Guang found that the villagers of his village were no longer grabbing food, but each holding two torches, chasing the locusts that were still flying in the sky.

Are these villagers setting fire to their fields? Ready to die with the locusts?

This is the second thought in Erxiao's mind.

Seeing Er Xiao standing in place, the sharp-eyed villager said loudly:

"Erxiao, come over and help! Let's burn the locusts together! ”

"Hurry up! If we don't burn these pests, they will eat up all our crops! ”

"Oh, it's coming!"

didn't think about it so much, and the second little nodded again and again.

Deal with the locusts first, and wait until you get back to ask......

……

At this moment, Ning Bei and Liu Cunzheng had already returned to the room.

Ning Bei was pondering whether this locust plague was the one recorded in history.

If so, a lot of people will die this winter!

Does he want to do something in advance?

It's actually quite simple to keep those people from dying.

All they need to do is get them fed.

Because after the locust plague, most of the people who died died of starvation.

But the problem is, he doesn't have a lot of food on hand right now!

Although he has extremely high-yielding rice in his hands.

But for the first time, this area is not suitable for rice cultivation.

Second, even if you don't consider regional issues, even if you plant rice, far water can't quench your thirst!

By the time the rice harvest arrived, the grass on the graves of those starving to death was already a foot high.

Therefore, how to save the impending famine, let him Ningbei think about it.

Is it true that you want to say that locusts can be eaten to people across the country, as the audience said before.

If this is promoted, many people will die of starvation.

But the problem is that even the villagers of Xiaolianzi Village who have recently dared to eat locusts only after seeing him and Liu Cunzheng finish eating locusts.

And in other places, what methods should the villagers and even the common people use to get them to take the initiative to eat locusts?

Even if there is a method, how can you promote it?

In this feudal and backward society, there are too many inconveniences.

Seeing Ning Bei's frowns, Liu Cunzheng couldn't help but ask:

"Benefactor, what's wrong with you?"

Ning Bei didn't look at Liu Cunzheng, but walked out of the door.

A moment later, his sigh reached Liu Cunzheng's ears.

"Grandpa Liu, when do you say this locust plague will end!"

Liu Cunzheng fell into complete silence.

He was just a little old man in a small mountain village, how could he know when the locust plague would end?

For a moment, both fell silent.

……

The words are divided into two ends.

Under the leadership of the villagers of Xiaolianzi Village, several surrounding villages finally drove away the locusts.

Cheers filled the villages.

But in the next second, there was a lot less cheering.

Take the field head of the two small villages as an example.

Looking at the locust corpses scattered all over the ground, which had burned like black charcoal, the two villagers from Xiaolianzi Village couldn't help but drool.

One of the villagers was even holding a locust, and after roughly saying it according to Ning Bei's previous introduction, he was going to stuff the locust into his mouth.

A group of villagers hurriedly stopped him.

"Little brother of the Liu family, this is the locust master! Can't eat! ”
