Lei Lang panted heavily with the rabbit's leg in his mouth, his chest rising and falling.He ran up and down in one breath and closed all the doors and windows tightly, so that the rabbit legs in his mouth didn't fall off!

Yao Ziqing found a bamboo basket and packed all the vegetables that his eldest brother had snatched. Most of the tomatoes were still blue, and they were also red.Some cucumbers are thin and small, without two bites of flesh.But anyway, it took a lot of water to grow after taking care of it carefully for so long.

The humming outside covered the sky and the sun, and it lasted for a long time.Lei Li panted for a while, got up from the ground and walked to the window, opened a corner of the curtain, and found a black patch of locusts clinging to the window.

Lei Lang leaned over to look at it with the rabbit's leg in his mouth, and he gave a disgusted gasp, only to realize that the rabbit meat in his mouth hadn't been eaten yet.But his hands were dirty, so he just gnawed the rabbit leg with his mouth very skillfully without using his hands.

Grandma sat on the sofa in the living room at first, and originally wanted to wait for her grandsons to finish their work in the house and go out to sit and sit, but it turned out that this kind of thing happened in two or three ways.Seeing the darkness of the room, and hearing the sound of locusts infesting outside, I was worried: "This, are these all locusts?"

Yao Ziqing hurriedly sat next to grandma: "It's okay grandma, the doors and windows are closed tightly, and the corn stalks in our field have been taken back before, but now there is nothing in the field, even the small vegetable field at the door has been snatched by the elder brother !"

Grandma sighed faintly: "Our family is fine, but the whole village is estimated to have lost a lot. The locusts probably ate a lot of food along the way. Now it is such a severe drought year, how should we live in this day! "

Yao Ziqing glanced at his second brother, and then fell silent.How can they do this kind of thing.

Lei Xiao comforted Si'er with his eyes, then turned and walked into the small warehouse in the house.Find a few sets of that one-piece protective clothing and throw them to them.

Lei Lang looked at the professional clothes, he didn't even know there were these things at home!

"Second brother, what are you planning to do? Go out and collect food? Our family doesn't have much food in the field. It's estimated that the vegetable field is almost eaten right now!"

Lei Li understood Lei Xiao's intentions, and put on the protective clothing directly: "Go out to catch locusts, this is a good thing, it tastes better than mole crickets, let's get some of these locusts all over the sky first, if there is really no food in the future, You can use this to exchange some!"

Locusts are grasshoppers, and many places specialize in selling fried grasshoppers, which are not cheap.In previous years of famine, many people ate this dish. When the oil was boiled and sprinkled with salt and chili powder, it tasted delicious!

Lei Lang thought for a while, took a set of protective clothing and put it on, Lei Li distributed the nets, found baskets with lids and prepared them.

Lei Xiao saw that Sier also wanted to go out, but he only took out three sets of protective clothing: "You stay at home with grandma"

Yao Ziqing silently glanced at Xiao Wu, who was also assigned to watch the house, and looked at each other affectionately.

It wasn't just their family that came out, one or two people from the family came out.But they were all dressed tightly, with the cuffs and trousers tightly tied with rubber bands.Seeing that the three of them were wearing uniform protective clothing that they had only seen in the laboratory, they were all a little dumbfounded.

This equipment is absolutely perfect!

Lei Zheng and Lei Lin also came out, also with the idea of ​​food.Seeing them like this, I gave them a thumbs up.Then I started to swing the net, and there were definitely hundreds of nets in one net. I slammed it into the bamboo basket, and all fell into the bamboo basket, and immediately covered it and continued to net others.

Some families have fine fishing nets with relatively small holes, which are specially used to catch small river prawns, which are just in handy at this moment.A few people pulled a corner of the fishing net to spread it out, and the crazy locusts just fell into the net like this.

This killing power made some people envious.These are all edible, and a few skewers might sell for a few meters of noodles.

Some farmers may not give up. After all, if there is no harvest in the field, what will they eat?I would rather thirst for myself to save the land.No matter how bad the dishes at the door of the house are, we can't waste them, let alone the meticulous service.

But when the locusts came, they were all gone.Some people just watched the locusts continue to plague their land at home, and the mournful howls continued.

Some even rushed into the ground fiercely to beat the locusts, but how could tens of millions of locusts be driven away like this.It is completely useless behavior.

Some people couldn't stand it anymore, and put on their masks and said in a low voice: "Don't bother, hurry up and catch the bugs, maybe you can exchange some food in the future?!"

"Uncle, my heart aches. I was thirsty for the water at home just for such a small piece of land, and now it's all gone, all gone! How should we live in the future! This is God who wants to force us to death!"

A man in his thirties, amidst the swarm of insects flying wildly, the crying man also became desperate.

Lei Xiao looked at the raging locusts with more serious eyes. The number of these locusts is too large, and the land has suffered a poor harvest after such a long drought. There is no abundant food to satisfy their appetite, or to wipe them out before they invade.Then it is likely to evolve into a carnivorous insect.This is not without precedent.At that time, people and animals are very dangerous.

After working for about three or four hours, the sky is about to dawn, and some locusts are getting fewer and fewer, only a few hundred of them are still here and jumping.Lei Li and the others had filled more than a dozen bamboo baskets with locusts, and moved them into the warehouse outside, while Yao Ziqing moved them into the space.

Those who are alive can first tighten the valley space, here is still a drop of psychic liquid every day, and then it is useless.After those worms are dead, transfer them directly into the storage space.This ensures freshness.

After working all night, all the bugs that slipped through the net in the house were found out and eliminated. After a few people took a shower, they all lay down in grandma's room and slept soundly.

No matter how unwilling everyone is to accept this fact, locusts have ravaged this land and it has become a wasteland.Even the forest behind Yao Ziqing's house was not spared.

What Lei Xiao was worried about has become a reality. The locusts are not just one batch. The front batch is more or less full, and the latter are the hungry ones.

The second batch of locusts also came after the sun had set, and this time the villagers had experience.Anyway, after a batch of looting, there was nothing left in the field, as long as they closed the doors and windows, they didn't have to worry about it.

Lei Lang is going to do it again like the last time. For things like eating bugs, there will be no psychological burden after the first time.Especially in the past two days, the eldest brother has completely cooked fried grasshoppers for him as a snack, and the more he eats, the more delicious he is.The key is unlimited supply!

Lei Xiao stopped him and made Xiao Wu howl.Now the communication is completely useless, if there is a time when you can't go out, there must be a way to communicate.For example, now, Xiao Wu howls like a wolf, which means to stand still.

Lei Zheng, Ma Chen and the others who received the message were very greedy for the bugs outside, but they still stayed at home obediently according to the agreement.

Lei Chenggen was a little puzzled: "Aren't the bugs coming from behind easier to catch? They're all too hungry, what do Lei Xiao and the others mean?"

Lei Zheng shook his head and put down the curtains: "I don't know, but they didn't come out either. Brother Lei Xiao and the others must have intentions in sending such signals. They caught quite a few last time. Let's just stay in the room!"

Leylin was still lying on the window watching, he didn't know what he saw, and suddenly screamed in horror.

Lei Zheng was startled by him, and hurried over, his face changed drastically!

After Xiaowu let out a long howl, about ten minutes later, there were shrill and shrill screams in the village.The sound made grandma tremble with fright.Lei Lang also ran to the window and lifted a corner of the curtain, almost putting down the curtain with just one glance, gasping for air.

"It's so cruel! Big brother and second brother, come and see! It's really terrible. Fortunately, I didn't go out, otherwise it would be miserable if I didn't die!"

Seeing that Yao Ziqing also ran over to watch, he slapped him on the forehead: "What are you looking at, children, let's play!"

Yao Ziqing grabbed and pulled, and Lei Lang fell to the ground, looking back at Barbarian Si'er, not to mention how depressed and sharp his eyes are!

There were endless screams outside. The hungry locusts flew towards people in batches. There was no food to eat. These locusts had been forced to become carnivorous insects.

The villagers bitten by the locusts were bloody and bloody, and even the clothing materials could not stop their ferocious eating.Really, as long as it is eaten, it will never be let go.

Lei Li put down the curtain, and drove Lei Lang and Yao Ziqing to the living room to sit down.It is impossible to be completely indifferent, and even for a moment, he was debating whether to take the fire extinguisher at home to help.Just watching the villagers screaming and rolling under the bite of locusts, he would naturally feel uneasy.

He has the ability and ways to help, but he chose to avoid it.Seeing the three younger brothers and an elderly grandmother in the family, even though he knew that the younger brothers were more capable than him, in his heart, they were his responsibility.

The world will become more and more chaotic in the future, and he cannot have this precedent.This time I helped, maybe there will be more crises to help in the future.To fight Mi En and promote Mi Qiu, it is better to be ruthless and let everyone sweep the snow in front of the door.

The yelling outside the house lasted for a while, and then I don't know if I broke free from the siege of the locusts or someone couldn't stand it and rushed out to help.When the sound stopped and even the buzzing of the locusts faded away, everyone breathed a sigh of relief.

Even some of the people who stayed in the house were like the rest of their lives after a catastrophe, as if they were fished out of the water.

In the middle of the night, the old village head brazenly begged Lei Xiao and his family: "Old sister, I really can't do anything about it, who knew those bugs were so cruel, two old ones in the village are gone, and many young ones are now She's still lying there with Song Feng, but the medicine is really gone!"

In recent years, the old village head's hair can be said to be completely white, not only worrying about the village, but also a lot of things to worry about at home.Now the locusts have eaten up all the food, and even injured many people, it is a terrible thing!

Lei Lang still respects the old village chief very much. This old man can be said to have worked hard for the village, but he has some ideas about finding his own home to ask for medicine: "Grandpa village chief, have you asked every household?" ?”

Lei Rongshi naturally knew what he meant, and he hesitated a bit.

Lei Li's tone was affirmative: "Is it Lei Liang who said it?"

Seeing the village chief's acquiescence, Lei Li chuckled and shook his head, got up and brought the medicine box.Inside are some gauze rolls, red syrup, and some gastrointestinal medicine, but there is really no anti-inflammatory.

"It's all here, and you've seen it too, Grandpa Village Chief, take it if it's useful, and help us say a word in the village by the way, if everyone thinks that our family has a lot of medicine, they will ask to come to your door in the future. If you can’t give it, won’t you be hated for nothing?”

Lei Rongshi also blushed, but still took the gauze and the red potion: "I will tell you about this, and there will definitely be no such rumors in the village in the future!"

Grandma sighed faintly: "It's not easy, I guess there are too many things to do, you'd better go busy with other things outside, and from now on, let's live our own lives!"

Lei Rongshi didn't delay any longer, he was still waiting there, although he didn't know if it would be useful or not.

Do other families in the village really have no medicine?Obviously impossible.But no one is a fool. As long as the world doesn't calm down for a day, it can save lives.

Lei Lang grabbed Xiao Wu's hair with some displeasure: "I know that family is not a good thing! We gave him medicine, even if it didn't work, but at least it's medicine, so don't talk about it when you bring it to the town You can exchange a hundred catties of rice noodles, and you are still spreading rumors in the village! It is unbearable!"

Yao Ziqing rescued Xiao Wu from the clutches of the third brother: "I expected it earlier. In the future, I will ask you to come to me if you have something to do. Xiao Wu is so polite, just bite him out!"

"Wow!" Xiao Wu wagged his tail, and finally had a place to use his skills!I was disliked by that vicious owner all day long, it is fat and can only eat but can't cook! ╭(╯^╰)╮!Even a dog has self-respect, okay?

A total of two people died in the village, and seven were injured. Some of them were only slightly scratched.Those who were seriously injured were far away from home.Some didn't have time to run back and knock on the neighbor's door. Naturally, there were a lot of insects that could kill people outside, so it was impossible for someone to open it casually.

Some people have fucked up a guy for this matter, and one arm was chopped down to the bone, what a hatred!

Song Feng was also extremely busy during this time, and the wounded were brought in almost every day.Some hemostatic medicines from local prescriptions in some rural areas are easy to get, but some anti-inflammatory medicines are really not available!

The two old people left, but due to the current situation, they had to be cremated hastily.Some old people have already prepared for themselves. Those urns and everything are locked in big wooden boxes.Now it is also used, and it is not so simple to walk.

There was an old man whose family conditions were poor. He told the story when he was alive, and then burned it when he died, and his ashes were thrown into the river.Now that the rivers are dry, this has become a luxury.Finally, I found a wooden box at home, with some cloth inside, and buried it like this.

Except for those who left the village due to fever and never came back, this was the first death in the village.And what happened this time made the nerves of the villagers even more tense, and the whole village seemed extraordinarily depressed.

Regarding this incident, Lei Zheng and his family's admiration for Lei Xiao escalated again.If he hadn't been stopped, he would definitely be one of the injured.Lei Lin has always admired Lei Xiao since he was a child, and since he was a child, he has been a legend in the village.

In the past, Lei Zheng and Yao Ziqing went to school together and Lei Xiao was in contact with him, so he was not a stranger, but he really just grew up listening to his stories and looking up at his back.

Now in Lei Lin's heart, Lei Xiao was almost turned into a demon.

"That kid has never admired me so much! After all, I am also his brother! It's just a white-eyed wolf!"

Lei Lang attacked unceremoniously: "What do you have to admire, you are just a mortal! Can you be compared with my second brother?! Take a nap and sleep!"

Lei Li continued his great business of frying grasshoppers, a basin full of them, fried crispy and golden, the smell made mouth water.

Lei Lang kicked Lei Zheng with his feet: "Eat it, you're welcome, our family is already a bit tired of eating!" Eating every day, anyone would get tired of it!

Lei Zheng rolled his eyes, he really doesn't know the blessings in the blessings, who thinks that now he can eat this stuff and get tired of it?Many of them were reluctant to eat, and they planned to bring them to the town to exchange for food.

They chatted and ate in the living room, while Lei Xiao dealt with wild boars in the backyard.The little wild boar, which weighed less than one hundred catties, was startled by the locusts and broke in by mistake.Being blocked by Xiao Wu, he forced himself to bite and cripple one of the wild boar's legs.Several people in the family once again refreshed their understanding of Xiao Wu's force value.

Wild boars are not easy to deal with, just the hair on their body is enough to sting people, and some internal organs cannot be measured according to domestic pigs.Many are inedible, such as pig stomach.But pig heart is a good thing, as well as pig liver, which nourishes blood.

Yao Ziqing held a basin beside him and watched his second brother deal with it. This was the first time he had watched someone deal with a live pig face-to-face, and he was still wild!

"I heard that wild pork is very delicious and tender, is it true?"

Lei Xiao concentrated on processing the internal organs, throwing the edible ones into the basin, and piled the inedible ones aside, and disposed of them together when the time came.

Yao Ziqing poked the warm pig heart with his hand: "Second brother, I want to eat stir-fried pig heart, I need to add more spice! There is also pork kidney, I want to roast it, my mouth is watering just thinking about it !"

Lei Li looked at Si'er squatting beside him with a funny face and kept talking about various ways to eat: "At least let's talk about it after your second brother has dealt with it. It's so bloody, you seem to have an appetite?"

Yao Ziqing pursed his lips and turned his head to look at his elder brother. It's okay not to say it, but it's a bit funny to say it.Isn't this the first time I saw a wild boar and felt strange?

Lei Zheng had never seen a wild boar, and if he hadn't heard the sound of slaughtering a pig, he wouldn't have known that their family was dealing with live pigs.Immediately, he also ran over curiously to see Xin Xin: "Hey, little wild boar, I only heard of it, Brother Lei Xiao, you went to catch this in the woods?"

Yao Ziqing pushed him away, blocking his line of sight, "That's not it, I came here by myself, but I guess there are definitely a lot of them in the mountains. If you want to go into the mountains to grab things, you must pay attention, and don't worry about them." Do you know if there are wolves?!"

"Not at all, I haven't heard that there are wolves in our area!"

"Then I've never seen a wild boar run to a place where people live before!"

Lei Zheng thought about it too. They all ran down, and it is estimated that there will be many in the mountains.The thought of going into the mountains to catch one also stopped.And how could you be so lucky to meet a single little wild boar? If you encounter a herd of pigs, it will be a disaster!

This was Lei Xiao's first time slaughtering a pig. Two front legs were given to Lei Zheng, one to Uncle Gao Ming's family, and the two hind legs were kept for himself.Ma Chen was given ten catties of meat, but the two brothers and sisters definitely couldn't finish it, and they didn't take all the meat away. They used at least five catties of meat to make chili sauce.

Fang Jinlei was also given ten catties of meat, but he didn't take it away. He only cut two catties and took them back.He knew that there was a generator in the cellar of Si'er's house, and some freezers could be used.So just put it here.

Lei Li also sent another ten catties of meat and added two tubes of bones to the village chief's family. It is no problem for them to have two meals for the whole family.It's been a while since I've eaten meat, and I'm really hungry.And it's still a wild boar, even if it costs a lot of money, it's not necessarily a pure natural wild boar.That is higher than the nutritional value of domestic pigs.The soup made from that bone can be said to be the most delicious in the world!

On that day, Lei Li and his family squeezed lard from a salt shaker with fat. This kind of mellow wild lard is a good thing.Not to mention the aroma of fried vegetables, it can also treat minor burns.Just in the past, if you want to buy it with money, you may not be able to buy it!

The oily meat dregs are also very delicious. This is Yao Ziqing's first time eating wild boar fat dregs, and he can't stop eating them.They quarreled endlessly with Lei Lang and quarreled for a long time, and the last one accidentally knocked over the plate.

The two brothers silently maintained a fighting posture, watching Xiao Wu who ate pieces of delicious meat on the floor of the living room into his mouth...

Didn't they say that they never eat things on the ground!Xiao Wu, you have fallen!

After eating the meat scraps on the ground, Xiao Wu raised his head and yelled at the master who was still motionless: "Wow!" Sure enough, the food the master was fighting for tasted good, but it was not enough to eat!

Lei Li smashed the pork bones into pieces, and then boiled them slowly over the fire.The boiled soup is milky white, and it smells fragrant from afar.Another piece was chopped and placed in a straight line, with white radish as topping, the boiled radish melted in the mouth.Grandma drank two bowls of soup and ate a lot of radishes!

Yao Ziqing licked his mouth and burped: "Second brother, when shall we go to the mountains? If this wild pork is marinated and used for barbecue, it must be very delicious!"

Lei Xiao shook his head: "Not during this period of time."

The locusts must have startled many animals in the woods this time, and it would definitely be unwise to go in now.If you want to get in, there will be more opportunities, so you don't have to be in a hurry.

But they have a sense of propriety, and those villagers who have been pitted by locusts have no sense of propriety.In their eyes, there is meat in the mountains, a lot of meat, but they ignore the danger.
