As someone who had eaten rat meat before, Lu Yu was the first to pick up a spicy fried locust and put it in his mouth.
Unexpectedly, the taste was spicy and delicious, and the locust meat was soft and tender.
My neighbor seems to have a magical power that can make everything delicious.
Xiao Chuxia also chose spicy fried locusts.
"It's delicious! Miss, do you have any rice? I can have a big bowl!"
Jiang Fei went to the kitchen to serve a bowl of soup to Xiao Chuxia, and also brought some for Lu Yu and Su Liuyuan.
Su Liuyuan had been bitten by a locust and was afraid to eat.
After hesitating for a moment, I chose the batter-wrapped and fried locusts.
Served with slightly spicy, salty and peppery salt, it felt like eating crispy pork. Su Liuyuan's eyes lit up:
"I didn't expect that locusts, though ugly in appearance, taste so delicious."
Su Liuyuan couldn't stop eating one after another. Suddenly he paused and looked at Lu Yu:
"I heard a piece of gossip in the store today."
"Some people say that you got promoted so quickly because you flattered the captain and lived off him."
"You also made up a story, saying that you were a gigolo before the weekend, and that you were paid 10,000 yuan a night, which was really cheap."
Xiao Chuxia: "I also heard other people talking about Brother Lu's promotion in the hospital. It was similar to Su Liuyuan's version, all derogatory words."
"Why did such a rumor suddenly appear? Could it be that someone is targeting Brother Lu?"
Jiang Fei recalled carefully.
The enemies are basically all dead, so there is no possibility of implicating teammates.
Lu Yu's eyes turned cold: "I will investigate this matter when I have time."
He didn't care about someone spreading rumors about him, but he was afraid that the other party would deal with his neighbors next.
After eating the locust dinner, Jiang Fei went back upstairs to take down three helmets.
"Wear helmets when you go out, and wear the winter clothes I gave you."
Protective gear is troublesome to wear, one piece on the left and one piece on the right. It is not as convenient as a helmet, which can protect the entire head.
Winter clothing is safer than medical protective clothing and can also protect the neck.
It is better to get heat rash than to be bitten by locusts all over the body.
Lu Yu and the other two cleaned up the table, then put on their helmets, put on some protection and left.
A few locusts flew in when the door was open.
Jiang Fei did not have a flamethrower, but released the chicks and geese to test their fighting power.
Before he gave the order, the eldest brother flapped his wings, grabbed a locust in one bite and swallowed it into his stomach.
The second and third children were also excited to catch locusts to eat.
The fourth chick is very cunning and follows the three little chicks to pick up the leftovers.
In less than five minutes, all the locusts in the yard were cleared away by them.
No wonder the country used poultry to control locust plagues in the past. Their fighting power is quite impressive!
Jiang Fei didn't plan to keep the chickens and geese away anymore.
Leave the cage door open and let them move freely in the yard to eat the locusts that sneak in.
As for Dahuang, he was too timid and had to be locked in the house. Jiang Fei also installed curtains in the cat room to prevent the cub from being scared by locusts again.
The next morning, the intercom that Jiang Fei placed next to his pillow rang.
It’s Xu Qianyao.
"The authorities ordered us to catch locusts. We are short of manpower and temporary workers have to go to work."
"I'll wait for you at your door. Remember to take insect-proof measures."
"Locust bites are extremely painful and can easily cause inflammation."
Jiang Fei replied "OK" and got up with a sigh.
Once you start working, you’ll be a worker for life!
Complaining in his heart, Jiang Fei washed up as quickly as possible and put on his helmet and cold-proof clothing.
He also wore a thick one-piece raincoat over his clothes.
Grab the flamethrower, open the door and go out.
The number of locusts outside has not decreased at all. They are flying around in swarms, making people feel like they have locust phobia.
Jiang Fei could feel locusts crawling on his body through his clothes, and he used a flamethrower to drive them away in disgust.
Don't get close to her!
Finally finding a police car parked on the side of the road, Jiang Fei drove away the locusts around him, quickly opened the door and sat in the passenger seat.
The main driver, Xu Qianyao, was wearing camouflage combat uniform and a mesh trash can on his head.
The eye area is specially hollowed out and a pair of transparent goggles are installed.
When Jiang Fei saw a small gift box hanging at the bottom of the trash can, he knew that it was made by Grandma Xu for Xu Qianyao.
Seeing Jiang Fei wearing a helmet that looked both handsome and insect-proof, Xu Qianyao was full of envy.
"Do you have any extra helmets?"
"I'll give you a combat uniform in exchange for one."
Xu Qianyao pointed at the clothes on his body: "It is made of special materials, which can prevent knife cuts and punctures. Only the official members of the rescue team have them."
Jiang Fei was moved.
Isn't this better than winter clothing?
"Five sets, two for women, three for men, and I'll give you a box of eggs."
Eggs can provide nutrition for grandma, Xu Qianyao readily agreed.
The two agreed to come back after get off work in the evening to pick it up, drive to the residential area, and meet up with other team members.
There are no more residents walking on the streets.
Yin Jing had already been waiting at the assembly point in a military truck.
Regular team members wore the same combat uniforms as Xu Qianyao, while temporary workers wore protective clothing and raincoats.
Everyone wore gloves and protective rubber shoes.
There are two types of head protection measures.
One is a homemade mesh trash can like the one Xu Qianyao wore.
The other type is a stainless steel basin on the head with a circle of plastic cloth stuck to the edge of the basin and two tiny holes made for ventilation.
By wrapping the plastic sheet around your chest with tape underneath, you can protect your neck and above.
Xu Qianyao raised his handheld loudspeaker and said:
"The patrol team is responsible for searching for locust eggs and destroying them, while we are responsible for catching locusts and distributing methods of eating locusts to every household."
"Everyone must catch ten bags of locusts today, and seal the bags and give them to Yin Jing, regardless of whether they are dead or alive."
"Experts from the Institute of Safety have already tested and found that locusts do not spread the virus and are edible. We urge everyone to be careful not to get bitten."
"Now line up to get your stuff."
Xu Qianyao asked Yin Jing to open the door of the carriage.
Jiang Fei was standing near the front, so he got one quickly.
A pack of 10 flamethrowers.
A package of crude pamphlets, about 50 or so.
A capture net and 10 sacks.
The booklet describes how to prepare locusts, as well as various cooking methods such as frying, boiling, and roasting.
This mission did not involve a specific area, so Jiang Fei started catching locusts nearby.
After catching enough people, they gave the pamphlets to Yin Jing and went door to door in the community to distribute them.
Most Japanese people find it difficult to accept eating locusts.
There is no shortage of food in the safe house, and if you are in trouble, they will provide you with free supplies, so much so that everyone has forgotten how difficult the road is now.
They either threw away the pamphlets sent by the rescue team in disgust, or drove people away in annoyance.
"I don't have a shortage of food at home! Stop sending me pamphlets! I would rather die than eat disgusting locusts!"
"If you want to eat bugs, go eat them by yourselves! Don't take us with you!"
"Who knows if there are bacteria or viruses on locusts? Do you want to kill me?"
"Go, go, go. It's so unlucky to hear this news so early in the morning!"
In response, the rescue team didn't waste any words and just turned and left.
Eat it or not, they won’t be the ones who go hungry when the time comes.
After working until the afternoon, the rescue team finished their work and will return to the assembly point at the same time tomorrow to continue collecting supplies and catching locusts.
Jiang Fei took Xu Qianyao's car back to Dongyang District.
Near 0-02, she saw a man in combat uniform and a basket on his head standing stealthily in front of her house.
He was holding what appeared to be a hammer.
Thief?
