"A plague of locusts?"

After Gu Qingwan heard the news, she was also very shocked.

There was a drought, and there was no crop land.

In addition, because of the drought, almost all the trees within a radius of dozens of miles have withered.

If there is no food, how can there be locusts?

What are those locusts supposed to eat?

If you don't have anything to eat, you can't even stay anywhere.

And even more so the locusts?

Therefore, in the current drought time, it is obviously a little incomprehensible to make a lot of locusts.

"You don't know that this plague of locusts is also coming from time to time."

"Every time there is a locust plague, it is the people who suffer."

The official had a bitter face, looked at Lu Yuan and explained.

"Why is it for a while?"

Lu Yuan asked.

"Otherwise, why do you think the surroundings are bare?"

"Those locusts have eaten all the greenery around them."

"There really wasn't anything to eat, so I flew away."

While the official explained, he sat weakly next to Lu Yuan, holding his forehead with one hand.

"Don't you know some man of God?"

"With so much going on, why don't you go to that man of God?"

Su Liyan was a little incomprehensible.

In the hands of the officials, they obviously hold better cards.

But they faced these disasters head-on and did not want to find a solution to the problem.

If that God-man can really solve the drought problem.

That is to say, the problem of locusts can definitely be solved.

It's just that officials don't seem to think of this at all.

Su Liyan looked at the official with some confusion.

Maybe it's not that he can't think of it.

It's that people don't want to help him at all.

Or perhaps, in the bottom of their hearts, the officials do not want to solve the problem at all.

That's why we let those locusts run wild and reckless.

"It's not that you don't look for it, it's useless to find it!"

The official reluctantly responded.

"What are the conditions for exterminating locusts?"

According to the previous events, Su Liyan directly inquired about the doubts in her heart.

"It's still a sacrifice, only more sacrifices can help us."

"Otherwise, people won't want to make a move."

"In this world, where is there such a thing as pie in the sky."

The official recounted the previous problem.

In the end, it's about the sacrifice.

Lu Yuan actually didn't understand it all along.

As a so-called God-man.

There are already so many abilities in possession.

Why bother with these sacrifices?

has helped the people, and the people can have a good harvest in Europe, so they will definitely be able to serve her.

If they do not help the people, the people will have no food to eat.

Plainly.

Even the people are going to starve to death, who has something to supply her?

It's just a matter of relying on a little bit of forcible grabbing.

That's not an option at all.

Lu Yuan thought about this.

Suddenly, I felt that there was something strange about this.

"It's really bitter for those people."

"There is no food or water, and you have to feed what you call the man of God."

"If this continues, everyone will have to leave here."

Gu Qingwan paused and spoke her conjecture.

"Yes, there's nothing left here, and you'll have to endure drought and locust plagues."

"No one wants to stay here."

Su Liyan also responded.

"Guys, since you're here to help us."

"So what do you want to do? What about this plague of locusts? ”

At this moment, the official brought out another question.

"Huh?"

Lu Yuan was a little sluggish for a while.

"Why should we solve the problem of locust plague instead of drought?"

Gu Qingwan also heard what was wrong in these words.

"There is a way out of the drought."

"I've said so much before, I think you know how to solve the drought problem."

"It's just that with our human ability, there is no way to solve it, we can only rely on God and man."

The official explained.

And Lu Yuan, who is the narrator, didn't understand the meaning of this at all.

"And then?"

Lu Yuan asked.

"And then there's the need for food!"

"We just need more food and goods to worship."

"Hold on for a year, and the man of God will help us solve the drought."

The official paused, then shifted all the questions back to the original topic.

Hearing this, Lu Yuan really understood.

It turned out that the officials had told themselves so many things before.

The ultimate goal is to want food.

To put it simply, the meaning of the official's words is to say.

Let yourself report to the Imperial City, and continue to distribute some food.

After that, all of them were delivered to the officials' homes.

Let the officials use this grain to worship the so-called man of God every day.

In this case, you only need to insist on it for a year.

Eventually, the problem of drought will be solved.

"You're really a good plan!"

Gu Qingwan was suddenly a little unhappy.

"This ......"

"What are you talking about?"

"You can't wronged me!"

When the official heard Gu Qingwan's words, he was directly a little unhappy.

"No wonder the people who came here before couldn't solve the problems here."

"It turned out to be because of this thing."

Lu Yuan understands now.

Why did so many people come before, but they didn't solve the drought problem perfectly?

Now that I think about it, it turns out that all the roots are in the officials.

Unlimited access to food, but inaction.

The mouth has been full of lies, saying that it will take a year.

"Shizi, you are a smart person, and you can also see the current situation."

"Without food, you can't do anything at all!"

The official's mouth kept reading.

"Then I'll ask you something."

Lu Yuan responded with an indifferent smile.

"Speak, please."

The official replied.

"Since you've been serving that god-man for half a year."

"And what did she contribute to you?"

Lu Yuan's words directly indicated the focus of the matter.

"What's going on?"

The official suddenly fell into deep thought, and began to think left and right.

According to the meaning of the official's previous words.

It's not hard to hear.

The gods who appear now are just blindly asking, but they never really help.

If it were really for the people.

It can really solve the drought problem.

At the very least, the man of God should do something decent.

to prove your strength.

Do nothing, and that's enough to prove it.

Either the god-man is hiding something, or it is completely impossible to have that strength.

Instead, they stayed here, taking advantage of the drought, trying to cheat things.

"The man of God just promised to help us solve the drought problem in a year's time."

"But he didn't say he wanted to help us with anything else!"

The officials were a little helpless.

Lu Yuan didn't listen to the official's far-fetched explanation at all.

"Forget it, I'll investigate this matter slowly."

"It's getting late today, let's prepare a room for us to rest."

Lu Yuan knew that even if he kept asking about this matter now, he wouldn't be able to ask a thing or two at all.

If these things are planned by officials.

Then Lu Yuan asked him, it was nothing more than playing the piano to the cow.

Officials will only come up with more excuses to perfunctory themselves.

"Huh? Live...... Stay? ”

Hearing Lu Yuan's words, the official suddenly became stammered.

"What? Let's solve the problem, isn't it normal to stay? ”

Lu Yuan was puzzled.

"Yes, yes...... Normal. ”

"It's just that now I've told you how to solve the problem."

"Isn't it time to report the information here to the Imperial City?"

The official lowered his voice and asked with some confusion.

"Oh, the food thing! There's no rush on that. ”

"Anyway, it doesn't fall into the hands of the people, so I don't think it's important."

"I'm going to stay here for a while, and then I'll solve the problem once and for all."

Lu Yuan stood up and responded with a firm expression.

"Shizi, the environment here is difficult, and you still have a family."

"How can you suffer here?"

The official began to explain.

"It's okay, we're not a precious body."

"It's just a little hard, and it doesn't hurt."

Lu Yuan looked calm, looked at the official in front of him and said.

"This ......"

Officials were still hesitant.

The more he hesitated, the more Lu Yuan felt that the problem of officials was bigger.

The bigger the problem, the more Lu Yuan must stay and see what is going on.

"Let you do it, you will do it, grinding and chirping, where are there so many things?"

Seeing that the official was still hesitating, he directly raised his voice and scolded.

was suddenly reprimanded by Lu Yuan.

The official's whole body involuntarily snorted.

It seems that he was taken aback.

"Okay, okay."

Subsequently, the official could only reluctantly order the people below to prepare a good guest room.

"What prepared meal?"

After that, the officials began to ask about the meal.

"It's so difficult here, we don't have to prepare food."

Lu Yuan directly refused the meal.

"People are iron and rice are steel, how can you do it without eating?"

The official said, and ordered the people below to deliver the food to Lu Yuan's room.

Since it was the kindness of the officials, Lu Yuan would definitely not be able to refuse.

I can also store it well with the instant noodles I brought.

Later, I don't know how long I need to stay here, so I can save a little.

The environment is more hard, and it is not impossible to restrain it.

The officials prepared a total of two rooms.

These two rooms are next to each other.

Su Liyan and Lingju live in one room, and Lu Yuan and Gu Qingwan live in one room.

After Lu Yuan had just entered the room and cleaned up.

The servants below walked in one after another with their meals.

In just a moment, the table was full of chickens, ducks and fish.

Looking at the food on the table, Lu Yuan suddenly fell into a daze.

Boy.

In such a difficult area, can you still eat such a hearty meal?

Lu Yuan had already prepared to gnaw on the bark.

I never thought that this was better than what I ate in the Han Palace.

Seeing the food on the table, Gu Qingwan also showed a puzzled look.

In the end, she looked at Lu Yuan.

"This ...... Can you eat it? ”

Immediately afterwards, Gu Qingwan asked the first question.

It's not about what the situation is, it's about whether the meal can be eaten or not.

Lu Yuan didn't have time to answer yet.

I heard that Gu Qingwan's stomach made a 'cooing' sound.

After a busy day, I went to the mountains again in the afternoon.

For a day, Gu Qingwan barely ate anything.

Even if he is an iron man who doesn't eat all the time, he definitely can't bear it.

Lu Yuan looked at the expectant look on Gu Qingwan's face.

I also knew in my heart that she was hungry.

"It's all delivered, let's eat."

Lu Yuan smiled indifferently and said in a calm tone.

"Okay."

Hearing Lu Yuan's words, Gu Qingwan immediately smiled.

He staggered towards the table.

After Gu Qingwan ran to the table, she began to eat in a big gulp.

doesn't care about the image of a lady now.

Lu Yuan saw it in his eyes, it hurt in his heart!

Gu Qingwan is a pampered girl, and she has indeed suffered with her.

Lu Yuan walked to the table, and then sat down slowly.

"Eat slowly, it's all yours, no one will rob you."

Lu Yuan gave a little advice.

"Husband, you eat it too, these meals taste really good."

When Gu Qingwan was eating, she hurriedly beckoned Lu Yuan to eat with her.

Lu Yuan smiled slightly and ate slowly.

Lu Yuan was eating, still thinking about some questions in his mind.

How to solve the drought and how to get to the root of the problem.

However, these things seem to have been caused by the gods and men in the mouths of the officials.

Last time, it was Liu Zhutou who took himself to see the man of God.

Lu Yuan felt that there was something greasy in it.

So this time, he decided to go and see the man of God himself.

Lu Yuan believes that only in the mouth of a man of God can he get some useful information.

Including the last time, what the man of God said was different from the previous request and so on.

Lu Yuan felt that something was wrong.

But I never understood what strange it was.

About half an hour passed, and Lu Yuan and Gu Qingwan were full of wine and food.

Immediately afterwards, the servant, who was waiting outside, entered the house.

Cleaned up the remaining dishes on the table.

After eating, Lu Yuan lay on the bed and continued to think about his problems.

And Gu Qingwan was lying next to Lu Yuan, leaning sideways, with one leg on his body.

Maybe it's because I'm too tired.

Today's Gu Qingwan was very quiet, and soon entered her dream.

This is not at all like Gu Qingwan's previous style.

Lu Yuan didn't think much about it.

Maybe it's really tired, that's why I sleep so fast.

But soon, Lu Yuan also felt that his eyelids were particularly heavy.

The head was groggy, as if there was some kind of magic, desperately suppressing his nerves.

Lu Yuan controlled his nerves and tried not to let himself fall asleep as much as possible.

At a time when the mind is struggling left and right.

Lu Yuan suddenly fell asleep.

When Lu Yuan woke up again, it was already dawn outside.

Lu Yuan sat up suddenly, feeling a little surprised.

Normally, I would never sleep so dead.

And this time, I was able to sleep until dawn.

Lu Yuan glanced at Gu Qingwan next to him, still asleep.

And it was also a posture that did not change overnight.

It seems that he sleeps more heavily than himself. (End of chapter)
