Chapter 305: First destroy the locusts, then punish the drought

Yi Shuyuan went to the heavenly realm to convince the gods to also help Xingyu, but it was actually very simple.

The so-called heaven wants to send down a catastrophe is naturally a heavenly trend, but in fact, Dayong has survived this catastrophe and now it is a fixed number, so what is the number of days? What is the principle of heaven?

Whether it is a fixed number or not, Yi Shuyuan has personally gone to heaven, if it is not a fixed number, he will also make a fixed number, and the gods also have their own considerations.

On the one hand, what Yi Daozi said is reasonable, on the other hand, the dragon clan seems to be losing his share when he comes here, but it is actually a responsibility, and it is impossible for the heavenly realm to be tense with the dragon clan all the time, and there is also a sense of relaxation.

In this case, the "rainy season" in Lingdong has arrived.

In the summer of the year, it rained everywhere in Lingdong, and the frequency was not low.

The people of Lingdong and all parts of the world naturally don't know the specific reason, but in the eyes of the people and court officials, the drought in Lingdong is solved, even if the root cause has not been eliminated, but from the perspective of mortals, it is indeed the case.

In the fields of Lingdong, crops have been revitalized, and some places that have completely dried up have tried to replant other crops, and many crops in the fields have turned green.

However, the damage of the locust plague became apparent, and the abundant rainfall caused the vegetation to grow rapidly, and the scale of the locusts increased day by day.

But compared to fighting a drought with no precipitation at all, locusts are at least an opponent that can be seen and touched.

Yunzhou, Asakura County, at the moment before sunset today, thousands of the villages in the whole county and even in the neighboring counties are concentrated in the field area in the southeast corner of this county.

As soon as he heard that he was going to exterminate the locusts with Lord Sima, all the villages and towns in Asakura County and even all the squares in the city, as long as they could send labor, all responded to the call.

Men and women, young and old, almost all of them have a long pole with sackcloth hanging from it.

Chu Hang was wearing a short hexagram with open arms, holding a long pole in his hand to reveal his solid arms and muscles, and the county officials, including the county magistrate of Asakura County, were also dressed similarly.

The environment can really affect and even change a person, and these old men who used to be pampered in the past now all know the truth of taking the lead.

At this time, Chu Hang roared in a loud voice that had already been exercised.

"The folks of Yunzhou, the fathers and elders of Asakura County, Liuwan County has been emptied of locusts, and if we want to keep our fields, we can't have any slack-"

Nearly 10,000 people were scattered in all directions, and no matter how loud Chu Hang's voice was, it couldn't reach everyone's ears, but naturally there were people from the government who conveyed it one by one.

As Chu Hang spoke, there was a faint sound getting closer and closer.

"Buzz Buzz"

It's a terrifying sound, at least for the people of Lingdong today.

In the direction of the small hill over there, a dark cloud flew against the ground, of course, it was not a cloud landing, but a patch of locusts.

"Set up a red flag, repel insects, light a fire—"

Chu Hang shouted, and immediately officials rushed to various places to convey instructions.

"Set up a red flag, repel insects, light a fire—"

"Pass on the order, set up a red flag, repel insects, and light a fire—"

This is a pre-agreed method of ordering, almost like an army.

A pole with a red cloth was erected, and amid the shouts of the crowd everywhere, flames piled up from firewood branches rose in some special directions determined by the masters.

Expelling, burning, digging pits and filling in landfills are the ways for Chu Hang to fight the locust swarm head-on.

The overwhelming number of locusts flew in, thousands of people swung their clubs and swooped down, some fell into blind confusion, but many people lined up in groups to wave linen and poles according to the original requirements.

The crowd effect brought a halt to the confusion of some people, who formed a human wall and drove many locusts towards the flames.

The locusts themselves do not fly very high, and although many of them have already landed on the crops, the drive is also very effective.

The walls of fire formed by the flames may not seem too high, but as long as the locusts fly over the sky, even if they do not directly touch the flames, most of them will be ignited with their wings.

Countless locusts floated low in the sky, and countless locusts fell from the sky.

Not only a head-on confrontation, but also a large number of eggs will be left behind in places where locusts have plagued or stayed.

Today's Lingdong climate is very strange, it may be a rain, but often the next few days or even the next day is scorching, and the sun is very scorching.

Therefore, Chu Hang ordered people to turn over the soil in the fields and even some wilderness where the locusts passed, and directly used the scorching sunlight to dry the insect eggs, and the effect was excellent.

Burning and culling in the front and cutting off its source in the rear is the plan for the revitalization of Sima Mansion after soliciting many opinions.

Of course, some people worship the "locust god" and think that things that require fear of locusts to be forgiven, once discovered, will be destroyed, and those who organize obscenity will be imprisoned.

When the locusts were being culled in Asakura County, there were also some Jianghu guests in the crowd, who were also culling locusts together with the people.

Qi Zhongbin, Mai Lingfei and others were also among them, but they didn't show anything special.

First destroy the locusts, then punish the drought!

This locust has eaten the crops and vegetation of the two or three counties in the rear, and it is inevitable that they will come to Asakura County.

As the sky gets darker and darker, the phototaxis of the locusts brings the flakes closer to the flames, and in an instant the flames are extinguished and fallen.

In order to prepare for the locust plague and insect swarm at nightfall, almost all the crops in the previous county were sacrificed, and only then did the man-insect battle in the night begin.

On the hill in the distance, a shadow that had grown more than three feet long was surrounded by countless locusts, and it looked into the field in the distance, which was a large fire that rose into the sky.

Being separated from such a distance, it made the insect demon feel a kind of firepower, which was not just the feeling brought by the fire of the pyre.

However, during this time, the insect demon was already too arrogant, and only felt that he was a natural disaster, that he was a locust god, and even tasted the feeling of being worshiped by mortals, and that kind of incense and wishing power made it fascinated by it like drinking nectar.

The eyes that had been injured by Mai Lingfei before would have been healed, and his compound eyes stared into the distance, and almost instinctively found Chu Hang, who was fighting locusts with all the people.

When it looked at Chu Hang, it only made the insect demon feel that its eyes were slightly hot, but it hated and gritted its teeth.

Lingdong Sima, you ruined my god to arrest my followers and killed my heirs, it is really hateful!

I am a plague of locusts from heaven, but the number of days, how can you and other mortals be able to contend with it?

The insect demon flutters its wings, hides in the dense locusts, and flies to the firelight in the distant fields, mortals are very fragile, and a slight wave of the sickle can break the flesh and bones!

It's just that the closer you get there, the insect demon seems to be able to feel the chaos of countless locusts, and can feel the pain of countless locusts when they are burned by the fire.

This actually made the insect demon feel depressed and chaotic, and there was a strong burning heat that made it more and more unbearable.

In the past, it used a similar way to deal with mortal martial artists, making innate masters helpless, but now it felt even stronger.

Kill him, kill Lingdong Sima!

"Buzz, buzz."

The voices of the endless locusts seemed to turn into wails, and the insect demon shook his head, and then looked at the large number of mortals, as if they were an endless sea of fire

"Zheng—"

A clear sword roar came, as if a puff of ice water was splashed on the heart of the insect demon, and the heat just now turned into a bitter cold in an instant.

"Ahh

The monster howled miserably like a ghost crying wolf, which shocked many people who drove away the locusts, and Chu Hang even looked into the distance, knowing that Heavenly Master and Mai Daxia and others had made a move.

Mai Lingfei took advantage of his lack of preparation to hold a sword and struck a blow, although he failed to kill with one blow, but directly cut off the two insect feet of the insect demon, which made the insect demon miserable.

"Youkai, we didn't know the winner last time!"

The insect demon was already frightened at this moment, gave up Lingdong Sima, and did not directly confront it, so he flapped his wings and fled without saying a word.

"Woo woo woo woo"

The insect demon brought a gust of demonic wind, and even took away a lot of locusts with him.

Want to run? Mai Lingfei held the sword in his hand, and with a deeper understanding of the monster, his mood was already very different.

The sword in his hand pointed directly at the monster, and the blade of the sword broke through the swarm with vigor, just like a sharp cone dividing the water, rushing straight to the locusts, and at the moment when the locusts fled, there was a thunderous sound that exploded.

"Raise the net—"

唰~唰~唰~

There were hundreds of martial artists with good martial arts on all sides who put down their poles and appeared, some people took off and some relayed, and large nets suddenly rose on the ground everywhere, and bells were hung on the nets, blocking the way of the insect demons.

When the locusts completely gathered into a disaster, the insect demon was not easy to find, but now it is different, although it is still not accurate to eat the location, but where the locust swarm goes, the insect demon is most likely to be there.

However, there is one thing that the insect demon is actually not mistaken, it is also a part of the disaster now, and it needs to be used to really kill it with the help of human power, otherwise it may "turn evil into good fortune".

"Block it!"

The warrior roared, it was really exciting to be able to destroy the monster today.

"Bang~"

The insect demon directly ignored and rushed to one of the large nets that was too close to dodge, and the moment he touched the big net, he actually felt the thunder and pain, and the four warriors who opened this net were directly taken away together, and flew into the sky with the demon wind.

"Be careful!" "Grab the net!"

"Don't let the youkai run away!"

One by one, the warriors below jumped up with light skills, and everyone grabbed the net, and more people grabbed the former and forcibly ripped the net off.

I don't know what material this net is, and no matter how the insect demon tears it, it can't be torn open immediately.

A group of people dragged the net, dragged on the ground by the monster, and there were more warriors who hit the insect demon with the blade in their hands, but often did not see any effect, the hard carapace of the locust was more exaggerated on the monster, but those weapons that pierced the abdomen could often cause the insect demon to howl.

Mai Lingfei chased after him from behind, jumped up towards the sky, and fell his sword downwards in the air.

"When~"

The front foot of the demonic qi was entwined to block this sword, but how could this insect demon compete with people in martial arts, Mai Lingfei's sword momentum turned in the air, and the long sword directly split two tentacles with a twist.

"Poof~" "Poof~"

"Roar—"

The moment the insect demon was in pain, Mai Lingfei actually fell on its back, and his innate true qi slapped downward.

"Bang~"

"Boom~"

The huge insect body was actually hit into the field by this full palm, and the people who were dragged around were able to stop their bodies, and they all had places to borrow their strength, and for a while, countless blades fell like rain, since the solid carapace was useless, then they all greeted the soft place.

When the surrounding people saw this movement, they were frightened and avoided it.

Mai Ling flew the sword on it, and as soon as he wanted to stab it, he was violently tossed by the insect demon, and his body was unstable, but he still swung out a sword, directly cutting off half of the insect demon's fluttering wings.

"Roar—"

The insect demon was in pain, and it couldn't fly after it had just shaken away the warriors and broke free from the net, and its body crashed into the burning pyre on one side.

"Boom~~"

The burning wood exploded, and the insect demon's wings were also ignited, which was even more exaggerated than pouring fire oil.

"There's a monster?" "It's really a youkai—"

"Blessed by the Manifestation True Monarch!"

Some of the people who had slaughtered the locusts also exclaimed when they saw the huge locust.

"I ate you-"

The insect demon had a murderous thought in pain, used the remaining insect legs and wings to maintain balance, and rushed towards Mai Lingfei, and the demonic qi around him brought a gust of demon wind, and countless locusts gathered over.

"Good time!"

Ah Fei was not afraid, and directly broke into the locust swarm, and rushed towards the insect demon by feeling.

The surrounding warriors took torches one after another, waving and slapping on the edge of the swarm, and the interior was a confrontation between the warriors and the monsters.

During the whole process, Qi Zhongbin did not show up, of course he observed all the changes in the situation, and knew that there was no need to show up, and the change in the disaster situation at this moment was also the best time to start a hexagram.

"Whew-"

In the terrible howl of the insect demon, Qi Zhongbin's heart suddenly moved.

In the absence of another calamity, Lingdong's qi has become clear.

At this moment, even Yi Shuyuan, who was raining in the sky in other places in Tailing East, felt something, and a white dragon looked at the corner of Mozhou in the distance in the wind and rain.

What caused the drought has been driven out of the three core states of Lingdong by the continuous rains to the relatively marginal Mozhou.

It was also at this moment that a kind of realization rose in Yi Shuyuan's heart, is it really a drought!
