"Oh my God, what is that?"

Before Li Qingxiu had time to be happy, she heard a startled soprano sound from behind.

When I turned around, I saw Widow Jia and a group of people running over quickly. Li Qingxiu has black hair, mother! How should she explain this?

【drop! Completed survival mission: capture 5000 locusts. Reward for successful mission: ten kilograms of concentrated insecticidal liquid. Points: 500. 】

As the locusts in the net pocket suddenly disappeared, and a message from the system came, Li Qingxiu knew that the mission was successful without even looking.

Her mind was racing. How should she explain it to this group of people?

"Qingxiu, what was that thing just now? Such a big net suddenly... Eh? What about the locusts? I just saw you netting a big bag of locusts." Widow Jia was shocked to find out halfway through her words. There was not a single locust in the net.

Widow Jia couldn't help but rub her eyes. Could it be that she was blinded just now? Probably not, but it's such a big group of locusts.

The people around him started talking in surprise.

"Yes, where are the locusts? I saw Qingxiu caught a lot of locusts, why did they disappear?"

"I also saw that the locusts were collected in such a big net at once. It was really amazing!"

Li Goudan's mother excitedly grabbed Li Qingxiu's hand and said, "Qingxiu girl, were these locusts taken away by the mountain god just now?"

Li Qingxiu didn't expect Li Goudan would say that, so he followed her words: "This... Grandma Zhou, you should also know some things, and the secret must not be leaked. If you know it in your heart, you should not tell it to the public. Otherwise, you should not tell it to the public. It’s just a small matter if we piss off the mountain god and stop protecting us, but if he wants to punish us, it will be troublesome.”

Li Goudan's mother said to Li Qingxiu with a look of approval: "The pretty girl is right, everyone should keep their mouths shut. Otherwise, if the mountain god sends down a punishment from heaven, it won't matter if we die at our age, just in case It would be a sin to involve our descendants."

When everyone heard this, they all nodded and said that they would keep their mouths shut if they knew.

"What are you all doing here?"

Everyone turned around and saw Li Zheng and the others hiding in the cellar coming over.

Li Lei, who came out to inquire about the locusts, saw that the locusts had flown away, but the people in the thatched cottage still ran out to chase the locusts. When Li Lei saw something was wrong, he told Li Zheng about the situation.

Li Zheng thought something had happened, so he left Li Xuan and the children in the cellar, and took the others out to see what was going on.

Li Qingxiu was about to speak when Li Goudan stopped him. She also winked at Li Qingxiu and pulled Li Zheng aside, whispering in his ear for a long time.

Li Zhengyou was confused at first and then shocked, then looked at Li Qingxiu with eyes full of respect, and finally nodded solemnly to Li Goudan.

Li Qingxiu: ...Actually, she really wants to know what Li Goudan's mother said to Li Zheng, so that Li Zheng could look at her with respect. Even if she pretended to be possessed by a mountain god last time, Li Zheng didn't. I've looked at her like this before.

"Qingxiu, why are you bringing an umbrella out? Oops, this umbrella is really magical and it's even connected to this net." Li Lei asked, pointing to the umbrella in Li Qingxiu's hand.

Just as Li Qingxiu was about to speak, he was cut off by Li Goudan again.

"Boy Lei, this is the mountain god's thing. Don't talk nonsense and be respectful."

Li Qingxiu glanced at Zhou Caixia, also known as Li Goudan's mother, who had a serious face, and couldn't help but want to laugh in her heart.

That's fine. Whatever special things she has in the future will have a source, and she can present them openly.

So she also imitated Zhou Caixia's expression and nodded seriously.

Li Lei glanced at Zhou Caixia and then at Li Qingxiu. Li Lei scratched the back of his head and smiled innocently. "I know, Grandma Zhou, I will pay attention next time."

After chatting here for a while, the locusts everywhere had already flown away.

Some people even said with some regret: "Oh, if I had known there was such a treasure, I would have collected more locusts. They would be delicious fried."

When Li Qingxiu heard this, he remembered that he had promised Li Qingfeng to bring some locusts back and fry them for him to eat.

Li Qingxiu quickly checked the storage compartment and was relieved when she saw that there were hundreds of locusts in the storage compartment.

"Okay, don't think about eating. We still have important things to do now." Li Zheng said.

Li Qingxiu asked in confusion: "Uncle Li Zheng, what's important?"

Widow Jia tugged at Li Qingxiu's sleeve and said, "I know this. Once the locust plague is over, the locusts will leave many eggs in the land, so the land must be plowed and burned to eliminate the eggs."

Li Zheng nodded and said: "Yes, that's the way it is. If you don't burn the insect eggs to death, there will be many locusts coming out to eat the crops."

Li Qingxiu suddenly remembered that she still had ten kilograms of concentrated pesticide, and she could dilute the pesticide before spraying the land. This will eliminate the eggs more completely.

Li Datian asked: "Li Zheng, will the land that has not been cultivated also be burned?"

Li Zheng nodded: "Of course it is necessary. If we don't open up wasteland now, it doesn't mean we won't open it up in the future. All the land that needs to be planted must be plowed and burned."

Li Qingxiu didn't want to turn over the soil when she saw how many fields she had. She believes in pesticides produced by the system.

So I got a bucket of water, poured some pesticide into it, stirred it for a few times, and then used a small water ladle to water the land.

Widow Jia, who had no land, ran over to help Li Qingxiu, but saw that Li Qingxiu was watering the land instead of plowing the ground.

"Come and pretty niece, what are you doing? Aren't you going to plow the ground? Why are you still watering it?"

Li Qingxiu explained: "This is insecticidal water, so there is no need to plow the ground, but there is not much insecticidal water, otherwise I would definitely share some with everyone."

Widow Jia grabbed the small water ladle and bucket and said, "What's the difference? You have so many fields and you don't know if it's enough? Come, let me help you."

Li Qingxiu did not refuse Widow Jia's help. After all, watering twenty acres of land alone was a huge undertaking. She went to fetch another bucket of water, added insecticide water to it, and continued watering the land.

During this period, many people asked them why they did not dig the ground. Li Qingxiu also answered truthfully. Now she doesn't want to make up any more lies. There is a mountain god here, what else can't be said directly?

Everyone wanted some insecticide when they heard that Li Qingxiu had it. Watering it was much easier than turning over the soil and lighting a fire.

But they were all rejected by Widow Jia. "Qingxiu only has such a small bottle. She has twenty acres of land and it's not enough. Where can I get the extra for you?"

Everyone was very disappointed when they heard it and could only turn around and leave.

Li Qingxiu quickly stopped them: "Wait a minute, after you burn the land, sprinkle some lime on the land to completely kill the insects. But remember not to sprinkle too much lime, because too much lime will change the nutrients of the land."
