On the border of Heishui Town, more than 200 farmers are waiting with chicken cages and duck cages on their shoulders.

It has only taken one night since I got the news, and it has only taken one night to organize people to wait at the border.

Wei Peng and Ma Gan also led a team to guard here, ready to participate in the locust eradication battle.

"Brother Wei, you said that instead of waiting here, we might as well go forward a few dozen miles to stop the locust swarm in advance."

Magan was nibbling on a piece of dry biscuit in his mouth, and his words were a little vague.

Wei Peng pondered for a while, and felt that it was very reasonable, just in time to test the strength of the chicken and duck army in advance.

If you can't stop it, you can think of other ways.

The two quickly reached an agreement and took people to the direction where the locusts appeared ahead.

At present, the locusts are still more than forty miles away, enough for them to walk all day.

After the team left Blackwater Town, what they saw and heard was completely different.

The crops in Heishui Town were still green under the severe drought, and they could not feel the harshness of the drought at all.

But after they left Heishui Town, the fields they saw were already dry, and most of the crops were so dry that they could burn with a fire.

Some tenants and their families, young and old, moved water to the fields, but they could not quench their thirst from afar, and could only sustain a few crops half-dead.

Seeing Magan and a group of people passing by, these tenants hid far away in fear, for fear that these military lords would rob them of the remaining food they had.

Wei Peng shook his head secretly. He could also guess the fear of the tenants, because they were a group of people with fresh clothes and angry horses, and it was not easy to provoke them at first sight.

However, with the wealth of their Heishui Town, they can see their three melons and two dates there.

"You go over and tell them that there is a locust plague coming, and let them prepare in advance."

Magan pulled one of his subordinates and ordered a few words. Obviously, these tenants have not received the news of the future of the locust plague, and have not made any preparations.

He also spoke out of poverty, and could not bear to see these tenant farmers lose their money, so it was not troublesome to inform them by the way.

So along the way, whenever he encounters a village or a tenant farmer who is irrigating the land, Magan will disclose the news by the way, so that the local tenant farmer can prepare in advance.

These tenant farmers are closer to the direction from which the locusts came, but unfortunately the news is blocked. If it is not informed by Magan, it is estimated that the locust plague will not know until the locust plague is near.

This team of them traveled continuously, camped out overnight, and did not make contact with the front of the locust swarm until the next day.

At this time, in front of them, a dense swarm of locusts like the top of a dark cloud fell on a tree by the roadside. In just a few breaths, the tree had no leaves left.

Several tenants guarded the only remaining field in their home, rushing to drive away the locusts.

An old man with sparse white hair stood in a bean field, desperately waving the branches in his hand, trying to drive away the locusts, but there were too many locusts, so he drove away a group of locusts, and immediately other locusts made up.

Seeing that the leaves of the bean sprouts in front of him gradually disappeared, the old man became anxious and threw himself directly on top of a bean sprout, protecting the bean sprout.

It's just that he can only watch the locust swarm devour other bean sprouts and let his children and grandchildren use eighteen methods, but there is still nothing he can do.

"Quick! Get the chickens and ducks out now."

With Wei Peng's loud shouts, more than 200 farmers opened the chicken and duck cages.

Two or three thousand chickens and ducks rushed out, and when they saw the food in front of them, they were excited to peck them on the ground.

These chickens and ducks are very efficient at pecking locusts, one bite at a time, very fast.

"Let's stop watching, let's do our best."

After releasing the chickens and ducks, Magan greeted the guards behind him, took out a copy net, and swept it towards the bean field next to him, and more than a dozen locusts were immediately caught in the net.

The guards and farmers they brought also took tools and began to hunt and kill the locusts.

In order to save their own crops, the local tenant farmers had no time to hunt and kill the locusts, so they could only drive them out with all their strength for the sake of speed. Therefore, the number of locusts was not affected in any way, and the number of locusts would only increase.

And they came here for the purpose of eliminating locusts. Although the speed is not as fast as the local tenants, they can kill one less than one.

Thanks to the participation of hundreds of them and two or three thousand chickens and ducks, this large swarm of locusts was visibly reduced.

After fighting continuously for more than two hours, this locust finally did not take much, and only sparse locusts were left in the ground.

Of course, this is only a small part of the locust swarm. According to the information, there are more locusts in the back and are coming here.

At this time, the two or three thousand chickens and ducks had already eaten their necks high and bulged, and squatted on the ground not wanting to move.

It seems that before they are digested, there is no fighting power.

The locusts captured by the guards and farmers had already filled several sacks by this time.

In the face of dense locust swarms, the speed of using the net is still faster than that of chickens and ducks.

"Father! Father!"

Suddenly, a hoarse shout came from the bean field, breaking the silence of the moment.

It turned out that the old man in the bean field stood up and saw that the whole family kept moving water and watering the ground day and night, and the bean field that was barely saved had been eaten by locusts and only bare branches were left.

And the several bean sprouts that he was protecting under his body were also crushed by his body, and he was saddened for a while, and slammed his head on the big stone on the side of the field.

"Father! Why can't you think about it?"

A young man tried his best to cover the old man's head with his clothes, but he saw that blood was still pouring out uncontrollably.

Seeing this scene, Magan couldn't bear it in his heart, so he stepped forward and performed a rejuvenation technique on the old man.

Under the shroud of green light, the bleeding on the old man's head gradually stopped, and his eyes regained some radiance.

"Thank you Immortal Master for saving your life!"

The old man's family of a dozen or so people fell to their knees and kept kowtowing to the hemp poles.

"You don't need to thank me, instead of trying your best to protect these bean sprouts, you might as well take the opportunity to catch more locusts.

Dry it in the sun, and use it to satisfy hunger when there is no food. "

After Magan's reminder, the old man's family and the surrounding tenants all rushed towards the locusts that were still bouncing around.

For these tenants who have never had enough food~www.wuxiahere.com~ all the food they can eat is their goal and cannot be missed.

Previously, they did their best to protect the crops, because they put too much effort into these crops, invested too much, and the harvest of the crops was higher.

Now that the crops can no longer be maintained anyway, as soon as he was reminded by the hemp pole, his mind immediately became active.

Today's plan is to take the opportunity to catch more locusts, and to recover some losses.

Immediately, all the villagers used eighteen martial arts, each with their own means, to catch the locusts with all their might.

At this time, the locusts seemed to sense the minds of these tenant farmers, a cloud rose in the distance, and a larger group of locusts flew here.

This group of tenant farmers, who had lost their crops and were about to survive, burst into cheers at this time, hoping that the plague of locusts would come more suddenly.
