Xiao Feiran raised this question, but Xiao Zhi did not answer immediately, as if he was retrieving cases from his database.

"For example, the sweet potato hawk moth used to mainly feed on plant stems. After natural disasters, crops were scarce, and these moths, lying dormant in the soil, underwent genetic mutations after being contaminated, and they are likely to feed on the flesh and blood of mammals."

Hearing this, the three of them imagined the scene and got goosebumps.

Huang Yiyi shuddered and clung to Xiao Feiran, yelling to the sky, "Isn't this going to kill me? I'm terrified of big moths!"

Xiao Feiran felt like she was going deaf. She covered her ears and said, "They're not here yet. Calm down."

As they continued their argument, Cheng Zhi grabbed Xiao Zhi and asked, "So, are there many of them? Are most of them... are they potato hawk moths? Can they be killed with insecticide?"

Xiao Zhi almost stumbled over these three questions. After listening carefully, he began to answer, "The sweet potato hawk moth is the main culprit, but there are also other insects such as cockroaches and springtails. Wherever they go, it's like a locust plague. They can be killed with insecticides, but it's quite difficult to kill them, and it would require a lot of insecticides."

"What time is it? Why are there still cockroaches?" Huang Yiyi kicked her legs, as if she was about to faint.

Cheng Zhi immediately checked the computer on the table, looking up the quantity of insecticide in the documents. After pressing enter, she found that there were only 32 bottles of insecticide.

Cheng Zhi looked at Xiao Zhi and asked it if this was enough to get through the day.

Xiao Zhi thought for a while, "If we stay in the suburbs, it probably won't be enough. If we go to the city, it's all reinforced concrete, not as much farmland or forest, so it should be just about enough."

Cheng Zhi paused for two seconds, then immediately told Xiao Zhi to go out and call Chen Siyu over.

Three minutes later, Chen Siyu arrived with her younger sister.

Zhiyu could hardly believe her eyes. Her eyes widened as she looked at her sister in surprise, "You really can do magic! So cool!"

When Xiao Feiran saw his little sister arrive, he immediately slapped the dejected Huang Yiyi. "Anyway, you can't stand the word 'insects,' so take your little sister to watch cartoons."

Huang Yiyi took a deep breath, put on a smile, and took her little sister to the room to play.

When Chen Siyu saw them enter the room, she immediately sat down and asked what had happened.

Cheng Zhi and Xiao Feiran then had Xiao Zhi repeat the prediction. After listening, Chen Siyu's face turned ferocious. "It's one thing to have a giant fluttering moth, but it also eats people. I'm going to die first."

"No, it's about to sprout, we need to think of something first." Cheng Zhi pulled Chen Siyu and shook her frantically.

The pain on Chen Siyu's face never subsided. She waved her hands and said, "This kind of thing is always done by Master Xiao. You're asking me?"

Seeing that she was about to become the next Huang Yiyi, Cheng Zhi immediately brought her a glass of cola. "Have some to calm down. There are so many of them, we can't kill them all. We can only hide, you understand?"

Chen Siyu pulled the tab, took a big gulp, and nodded. "I understand, so we just shouldn't go out, right?"

"Yes, we don't go out, but we're in the suburbs, surrounded by fields and mountains. Our earthen buildings aren't as airtight as the houses we usually live in; they have gaps and are quite old. If a swarm of moths attacks us, we could easily be breached, so..."

Before Xiao Feiran could finish speaking, Chen Siyu understood.

She stood up and shouted, "We have to get out of here!"

Cheng Zhi and Xiao Feiran applauded in unison, and she finally understood.

But the next second, she slumped again, "But where should we move to?"

She looked down at her two roommates, who were also looking at her expectantly.

Chen Siyu took a deep breath. "Don't look at me like that. Although I'm half a local, I'm really not familiar with Jiufeng Mountain."

Cheng Zhi pulled her down to sit, "Think about it again, try to recall it carefully."

Chen Siyu finished the rest of her cola in one go, then buried her head in her hands and started thinking.

She doesn't have many relatives. Her great-grandmother had two children, but her younger daughter passed away a few years ago, leaving only her son's family.

Chen Siyu removed the cushion from her face. "My great-uncle's family lives in the city, but they probably can't fit all of us in his house."

Cheng Zhi waved her hand dismissively, "As long as there's room for your whole family, we can just find a hotel near your house to stay in."

Chen Siyu became anxious. "You make it sound so simple. It's not that easy."

Xiao Feiran pointed to himself, "Don't worry, there are so many of us, how could we not find a place to stay? Even if we can't, we can just stay in the car."

Chen Siyu still felt that they couldn't live alone outside; she insisted on the principle of everyone staying together.

Seeing that her eyes were red with anxiety, Cheng Zhi agreed first, "Okay, okay, we'll see when the time comes. Hopefully your uncle's family has a big villa, so they can fit us in."

With the topic of accommodation settled, Cheng Zhi raised a new question. She told everyone the amount of insecticide they had, "Xiao Zhi said it's barely enough, but I don't think we can gamble on it, so should we stock up on some more?"

Chen Siyu nodded, "Of course, the more of this stuff, the better."

Xiao Feiran, who was standing nearby, said, "But the wind is howling outside, where are we going to store it?"

Cheng Zhi pointed to Xiao Zhi, who was working in the yard, and said, "Don't forget, Xiao Zhi also has a paid feature: shopping."

“But we’re out of money,” Chen Siyu reminded them.

Cheng Zhi shook her head. "It can even predict disasters, so how could it not know that we don't have money? I don't think it was bought with money."

The person is right there; just call them over and ask them.

The next second, Xiao Zhi appeared in front of them. "Master, what are your orders?"

Cheng Zhi cleared her throat. "Xiao Zhi, we'd like to buy some insecticide. How do we do that?"

When Xiao Zhi heard that they wanted to buy something, he immediately replied, "You can use rare metals or Earth crops to buy it. Our prices are absolutely fair and honest."

The three of them thought about it for a while, trying to figure out what would constitute a fair price.

Xiao Feiran asked, "If I want to buy pesticide with corn, how many ears of corn would I need to buy one bottle?"

Xiao Zhi replied, "Five ears of corn of moderate size can buy a 600 ml bottle of insecticide."

Cheng Zhi and Chen Siyu heard it, but didn't feel anything special.

Xiao Feiran, however, was different. She exclaimed, "Holy crap? It's this cheap?"

Seeing the two people beside him so calm, Xiao Feiran said, "Let me put it this way, the sweet corn on the first floor of our cafeteria is 6 yuan a piece."

Cheng Zhi did the math and exclaimed, "Wow, that's a really fair price!"

Chen Siyu, standing next to her, reacted differently. She immediately started cursing, "Selling that tiny bit for 6 yuan? Is this cafeteria trying to rob us?"

Cheng Zhi patted Chen Siyu on the back, "Stop cursing, stop cursing. It's already closed down, it can't rip you off anymore."
