Chapter 551: Bandits Appear (12)
"You're here so late at night... and you're still so happy. Is there any good news?"
Shu Lingyi naturally walked into the house happily holding his father's hand. After asking him to sit down, he smiled sweetly and obediently.
"It is indeed good news, but I was so busy when I came back just now that my back and waist ached."
Jiang Wang looked unmoved by Shu Lingyi's behavior.
Shu Ling understood what his old father meant in a second. He stood behind him with a smile on his face and pressed Jiang Wang's shoulders.
"Hehe, you've worked hard. I'll give you a shoulder and back massage."
Jiang Wang then closed his eyes in enjoyment, and after about half a minute he slowly spoke.
"This group of ducks came back quite late. According to the information revealed by the mallards, some locusts have indeed hatched, but they are still in the nymph stage and are relatively weak and insignificant."
Shu Ling didn't stop his hands, but he was already thinking about the information in these words.
"So even if No. 1 hatches on the same day and becomes a nymph, it will take at least three days to become an adult."
It was already late in the evening of the second day, and not a single adult had appeared yet, but one could already guess the growth history of the locusts.
Three days may be a node.
"That should be the case. Nowadays, nymphs don't dare to get close to places with human habitation. The information fed back by the mallard revealed that the place is very remote."
"In that case, after tonight, the locust eggs that haven't been eaten will probably start to hatch in larger quantities."
After tonight it will be the 28th, the third day of the Beginning of Autumn.
"There is another thing. All the ducks that have eaten nymphs today have a tendency to upgrade."
"Um?"
When Shu Ling heard the good news, he suddenly realized - no wonder Jiang Wang was so happy.
"But it's mainly those low-level ones. Those level one and two ducks have all been upgraded today, and the level three and four ones seem to be a little stronger as well."
"But the chickens haven't changed? Could it be that locust eggs can't provide experience points for leveling up?"
"That should be it."
"Don't panic. After three to five days, the locusts will eventually increase in number."
After discussion, we decided to continue with today's arrangements tomorrow. It would be great if the chickens and ducks could be refreshed and their numbers increased dramatically.
Shu Lingyi did not forget to send a message to Luo Fengke: "Aunt Luo, please prepare more materials for the insecticide. It's too late today. I will make the insecticide tomorrow."
[Silo]: "Okay, we already have 50 insecticides in our warehouse, and the materials are enough to make 150 copies."
[Yi Ling]: "I'm not sure if it's effective against locusts yet. I'll try it out tomorrow or the day after tomorrow and then consider making more. But it's always good to stock up on more materials."
[Silo]: "That's no problem."
The next two days were very peaceful. On the 30th, Shu Ling, Luo Zhiqing, and Su Ranran had a sudden inspiration early in the morning.
Familiar days, familiar menstrual visits.
"Days like these are perfect for stewing a chicken." Nowadays, the dates of menstruation are almost always stable on these days.
Shu Lingyi cooked angelica eggs for breakfast yesterday morning. After all, there are many chickens now, and the number of eggs they produce is extremely high.
Although eggs have a long shelf life, this quantity is worth it for Shu Ling and others to use all kinds of tricks to make food.
At noon, Shu Lingyi cooked a big pot of nutritious soup for replenishing qi and blood. The ingredients were abundant and the soup was made from a strong old hen.
The ingredients used are red dates, wolfberries, polygonatum, lilies, American ginseng and codonopsis, as well as some ophiopogon and sufficient brown sugar.
This tonic soup is only suitable for drinking before menstruation, as drinking it during menstruation can easily cause "heavy bleeding".
Drinking it in advance can nourish qi and blood, allowing the body to welcome the next menstrual period in a state of full qi and blood.
With the improvement of their physical fitness and the nourishment of medicinal food, the female players seem to have been reborn.
[The Awaiting Heavenly Demon]: "It feels like there are more adult insects today than yesterday. I used insecticide, but these guys didn't seem to have any reaction after eating it?"
[Cai Cai Cai Li]: "Yes, are these locusts not afraid of pesticides?"
[Xin Jing]: "Could it be that we need some special pesticide to kill locusts? But has anyone provided the blueprint for this?"
【Tea smoke rises】: "No..."
【Whisper】: "If anyone is still hiding it, they will definitely make it quickly and sell it to make a lot of money."
[Taro is not a Rain Kite]: "The lowest level of these adults I've seen is level five, and this is just the beginning. If there are hundreds of thousands of them... it's too scary."
【The Sorrowful Heavenly Demon】: "But wasn't the insecticide effective against level 5 or 6 insects before? As long as they were eaten, I applied it on a winter melon, and it ate it all in a few bites. As a result, I lost more than ten drops of blood..."
By the last day of September, many adult locusts had appeared.
However, only a few adult insects dared to fly near the territory. After all, too many brothers and sisters had died in the past few days.
Now these adults are not able to form a sufficiently terrifying team.
When players face dozens or hundreds of locusts that dare to fly near their territory, they will deliberately apply pesticides on some food or straw.
This is an experiment to see how effective pesticides are.
If the insecticide is effective and can have the same remarkable effect on these locusts as before, Shu Lingyi will definitely start mass production immediately.
Unfortunately, the ending was as tragic as she had expected - locusts are not afraid of pesticides at all.
Only a hundred drops of blood will be lost when the locusts are first eaten, and it will not cause any harm to the locusts afterwards.
[Yi Ling]: "Actually, I am mentally prepared. The details of these locusts say that they eat everything. This shows that these locusts can eat anything and won't even die after eating it."
[Yi Ling]: "It is precisely because the pesticides are not effective that these food chain nemesis items were refreshed like crazy in the first few days of the game."
After confirming that the insecticide was ineffective, Shu Lingyi gave up producing more.
【Never Want to Be Twin Branches】: "This player is amazing, his analysis makes a lot of sense."
[Hesong County Xiaohua]: "That's not true, the boss is really powerful!"
[Bai Moxi]: "The insecticide is ineffective. I'm afraid that everyone will have to lead a bunch of chickens and ducks to fight outside the territory next."
Sufficient high-level scarecrows can be arranged to guard the interior of the territory and outside the protective shield.
At least we won't let these locusts get close to us, and just leave thousands of chickens, ducks and birds in the territory.
But outside the territory, the deserted place in the game area is the locusts' real home.
[Mary Had a Little Lamb]: "I can go on a long journey with a few animal trainers and take these locust killers with me to deal with locusts in faraway places as much as possible."
