Under the fabrication of Jiang Xue and Jiang Sheng, the group blocked Jiang Yao's door, hoping she would hand over the supplies she had so they could share them.
Jiang Yao was at home watering her seedlings and was unaware of what was happening outside.
The crowd stared at the tightly closed gate, whispering amongst themselves.
Zhao Jiabao whispered to Li Haiping, "Do you think Jiang Yao might hear the news and run away?"
Li Haiping's expression turned fierce, and he said in a vicious tone, "Where can she run to? Running out will only feed the insects, a dead end."
"Even if we go to the authorities, they can't do anything about it." He said, spitting as he spoke.
Seeing that more and more people were gathering, Jiang Sheng loudly gestured to them and said, "Everyone, everyone, listen to me."
"Our goal today is simple: to get Jiang Yao to hand over the food."
"We demand that resources be shared and distributed in the same way as the official system."
Zhang San's wife said impatiently, "I said, what time is it? When is it starting? Say something!" She looked at Jiang Sheng and Jiang Xue.
...
At this time, the military's expert team had already begun preparations for large-scale pest control.
Inside a military office.
He Rui, Zhu Hezheng, Dang Chengye, Sun Ting, Zhang Jie, He Fenghua, and others are discussing who should go and kill the pests.
You should know that if you go out to kill pests without protective measures, you may not come back alive.
The expert team only knows that when insects bite, they cause intense, irritating pain and a gradual onset of numbness.
It is uncertain whether the insects can secrete corrosive substances.
Currently, only heavy-duty chemical protective suits and nuclear radiation protective suits are available here. Whether these two types of clothing can withstand insect attacks is still unknown.
Seeing that the atmosphere was a bit tense, Zhu Hezheng said, "How about I put on the hazmat suit and go out to try it out first?"
Seeing this, He Rui added, "Why don't we spray some insect repellent on ourselves? That way, the bugs will be afraid and won't land on us, and it will also make it easier for us to operate."
Sun Ting and Zhang Jie objected: "If we go out like this, what if the medicine runs out and the liquid on our bodies becomes diluted? Wouldn't there still be a risk of exposure?"
He Rui frowned and looked at everyone: "Okay, let's prepare for both scenarios. Dang Chengye, go to the fuel depot now and check how much flamethrower and fuel we have left."
"After we go out, one person will be responsible for spraying the medicine, and two people will be responsible for carrying the flamethrower and fuel. Make sure to bring enough fuel."
"One of them will place a fuel supply device every 2,000 meters." Looking at everyone's expressions, He Rui knew that this battle had to be won, because there were still many people waiting for them to rescue.
"Put the supply equipment away, and carry the rest with you."
"Work in pairs and cover each other. If the medicine runs out, use the flamethrower immediately."
"Find the nearest group to meet up."
"If there are no problems, the base will send people to deliver the medicine to each group."
"Our mission is to rescue Sang You from Shichang Village; he is the leader of the expert team's genome sequencing team..."
"The base will make further arrangements for the remaining matters after we depart."
Dang Chengye reported the fuel depot data to He Rui. Upon hearing the data, He Rui felt relieved. Fortunately, there was enough fuel, so at least everyone could protect themselves.
...
Jiang Yao heard a commotion outside the door, and when she opened it, she was surrounded by people.
Zhang San's wife was the first to speak up, saying, "Jiang Yao, we've come to see you for no other reason than to hear you have a lot of food. If you can share some with everyone, we won't make things difficult for you." After saying that, she addressed the crowd, "Isn't that right, everyone?"
Seeing this, Jiang Yao raised her eyebrows slightly, her eyes revealing a hint of sarcastic smile: "Who told you I had food?"
"Why should I give you my things!" Jiang Yao said coldly to everyone.
When Xiao Mu and Shen Zhijie came out, they saw that Jiang Yao was already surrounded by the crowd.
Xiao Mu frowned as he looked at everyone, exuding an aura of detachment, and walked towards Jiang Yao, standing side by side with her.
Jiang Sheng retorted to Jiang Yao, "Don't worry about who told us. If you have any, just take it out and share it with everyone."
Jiang Xue looked troubled and slowly said, "Sister, if you have any food, please share some with everyone!"
"Look, the government is now sharing its resources." After saying that, she looked at Xiao Mu, who was standing next to Jiang Yao, with a slightly disappointed expression.
It seems I should find some time to warn Jiang Xue, to let her know that not just anyone can covet what belongs to Jiang Yao. Even if you're a toad, I can still turn you into toad venom and toad skin.
Everyone agreed, "That's right, hurry up and bring out the food!"
Jiang Yao turned around, took out her Hou Dao (a type of dagger), and held it horizontally in front of her chest.
Seeing this, everyone took a step back. Jiang Yao has a weapon in her hand, and we can't fight her with our bare hands!
Seeing this, Jiang Sheng loudly reminded them, "We also have weapons."
Upon hearing the news, Shen Xi, an official, rushed over. Seeing everyone clashing with weapons, he stepped forward and waved his hand, saying, "Listen up, everyone. The military has already begun their journey here to carry out large-scale pest control. We'll be able to leave soon."
Seeing that Shen Xi had come out to try and calm things down, Jiang Sheng shoved Shen Xi and said, "What if we starve to death before the military arrives?"
...
He Rui, Sun Ting, Zhang Jie and others formed one group, while Zhu Hezheng, Dang Chengye, He Fenghua and others formed the second group.
Group One provided cover for Group Two, who then went to rescue Sang You from Shichang Village.
Before leaving, He Rui, Zhu Hezheng, and Dang Chengye discussed that if Shen Zhijie and Xiao Mu were still in Shichang Village, they would bring them back with them.
