Chapter 100 The locust plague is coming (1/2)



"99 days left to complete the upgrade of the eleventh level."

Chu Chenyin was awakened by the reminder sound from space. When he woke up, he found that it was already noon. The sun was hanging high in the sky, shining brightly.

She put her hand out to block out the light and looked to her side, where she saw clothes scattered on the grass. The memory of last night instantly came back to her.

Fu Yanting is indeed a general with strong muscles, and his physical strength is truly admirable.

If she hadn't begged for mercy in a hoarse voice at the end, she seriously doubted whether she could get down the mountain today.

"You're awake." Fu Yanting came to her side and threw a few wild fruits to her. "The trees here don't bear fruit. I searched all morning and only found these few fruits."

Chu Chenyin took the fruit but didn't want to eat it. He put it aside and wrapped it with clothes.

As summer approaches, the weather becomes hotter and hotter, and the drought becomes more severe.

When Chu Chenyin put on his clothes and went down the mountain, he saw a large area of ​​withered grass.

Fu Yanting walked in front of her, holding a long sword to weed for her, "Walk slowly, there's no rush. I already told my parents yesterday."

Chu Chenyin suddenly realized, "You have planned this long ago."

Fu Yanting leaned over to help her down the hill, "This is called planning, not calculation."

Chu Chenyin listened to his twisted logic, jumped forward and walked to the front. When he passed by a bush, he saw a small insect flying in front of him.

The little insect fluttering its wings was completely different from the fireflies last night.

Chu Chenyin took a closer look and realized that it was a locust!

She immediately raised her head and looked around, only to see a few more flying towards her.

Each locust was fatter than the other, with green heads and pale yellow antennae. They flew and jumped and landed at Chu Chenyin's feet.

Chu Chenyin stepped on it and said to Fu Yanting: "Oh no, it's a locust."

Fu Yanting lowered his eyes and looked at the flying locusts, frowning, "There are no locusts in Youzhou, how come there are in Anzhou?"

Chu Chenyin looked into the distance and said, "The drought in Youzhou is even more serious. There are many swamps and crops here, which is naturally more suitable for locusts to grow."

First there was the flint, then the drought and earthquake, and now the locust plague should be next.

She tried hard to search the book for records about locust plagues in her mind, but there was only one sentence: "Locusts attacked Anzhou, and the seedlings and grains were eaten, and the country was starving."

No specific time was left.

Judging from the current locust situation here, it will probably be within three days.

Chu Chenyin immediately pulled Fu Yanting home and said, "Come on, let's go home and tell our parents about this!"

Their carriage was loaded with a lot of dry food, but if it was surrounded by locusts, there would be very little left.

On the way back, Chu Chenyin saw many farmlands that had not dried up yet. These farmlands still had green seedlings growing on them. Although some of them had turned yellow due to the drought, they could still be planted if more water was added.

But if locusts come, they basically wipe out everything.

She stopped and said, "Why don't we buy these fields?"
