Chapter 790
Yan Shirong had been preparing for a long time. He used pills that smoked locusts, and then intercepted them one by one in the east to prevent the locusts from flying towards the capital.
Then slowly fumigate the surrounding areas with medicine to drive the locusts to the center to minimize the damage.
After all, due to the three-year drought, the grain in the fields here has grown very poorly. Even if it is swallowed by locusts, the loss will not be too great. If the locust plague can be solved in as small an area as possible, it is a success.
At the same time, as soon as the news arrived, Yan Qingshan and his party began to travel day and night, eating three meals in the carriage.
Because there are many more ways to attract birds now, Yan Qingshan also approached Xiang Xiaodong, wanting him to divide half of the team, bring the grape vines in the space and special bird food, and lead the birds there first.
Little Phoenix also came out of the space, but he didn't use it for a while.
But Xiang Xiaodong refused without hesitation, and he said: "Your Highness, when I left the capital, the emperor ordered me to do so. Protect Your Highness closely, don't leave and don't slack off."
It was also the first time that Yan Qingshan had experienced the style of this close minister who Jane was in the heart of the emperor.
He doesn't know how to explain, saying that I think His Royal Highness is also very important...whatever, it's just a simple and rude statement of position.
Yan Qingshan couldn't help smiling, and then said in a deep voice: "Alright, after that, your people will also protect us by the way. If there is an emergency, then you should protect Xinbao first."
Respond to Xiaodong.
Yan Qingshan called Fang Baiju over, and asked him to take all the remaining tiger guards and lead the birds away.
Fang Baiju's idea is much simpler. I followed the prince, but the emperor didn't say anything, so I will do whatever the prince asks me to do. As for who will protect the prince after I leave? It's not my thing.
So off they went, and most of the birds followed.
In July and a half, there was a lot of locusts in Guanzhong, but compared to all the previous locust plagues that covered the sky and the sun, it was much better.
On July 19th, the prince and his party finally rushed over.
At this moment, the situation of the locust plague is still under control, and it has not continued to move eastward. After the birds joined, the battle situation is even more beautiful. Every time you look down from a high place, the situation is spectacular.
What is this called? The bird flies into the trough, and you don’t have to chase after it. You tilt your head to the left to eat a bite, and tilt your head to the right to eat a bite.
And not only birds eat it, people eat it too.
There are everywhere, put them on a skewer and roast them on the fire, sprinkle some salt, cumin, and chili powder, and you can eat them as a dish. You eat every day, a bowl of soup and a steamed bun with a few bunches of locusts... It’s quite a small life. It's not like surviving a disaster at all.
Yan Qingshan came over and felt relieved after listening to the report.
At this moment, Fang Baiju's people had already prepared the granary, and Xinbao unloaded the mature grain in the space, regardless of the variety.
The prepared granaries were not enough at all, and in the end, a few places were temporarily dispatched. As for chickens, ducks and geese...even if you don't eat locusts, they are meat and vegetables, so they are still needed.
Because there are too many, Xinbao prepares to unload one by one.
The yard was prepared below, Xinbao stood there and raised her hand, and Yuan Chenjue couldn't find where she was in an instant...
So is Xinbao.
She only felt that her feet were weak, and the top of her head was pressed. She was like sitting on a meat boat. There were geese chasing her everywhere. In a blink of an eye, she was submerged in the sea of big geese, one after another, one after another. It has become a goose wall, and no one can be seen from left to right.
Xinbao cried out in fright: "Wife!"
Even the sound was muffled.
Yuan Shenjue's expression changed.
Originally, the distance between them was only three or four feet, but when they rushed, they didn't know where she went, and could only hear her screaming in panic: "Wife!! Help...Ahh!! Wife! "
Yuan Shenjue quickly pulled the goose to find her.
As we all know, the big goose is the king of the country, fiercer than a dog. When he pulls it, the goose lowers its neck and rushes up with its wings. It grabs his clothes and cannot be pulled away.
Yuan Shenjue simply hung up on these big geese to look for them.
Hao Huashi was also in a hurry, and followed suit, saying, "Master! Master!!"
He didn't listen to Xinbao's answer.
And there were too many geese, and they were all screaming with their necks straight, and they were all constantly moving, so they couldn't hear where Xinbao was at all.
Seeing sweat on Yuan Chen's anxious forehead, he whistled a few times, calling for the shadow guards, and slapped the shadow guard with a ruthless hand, cutting off the clothes caught by the big goose, jumped up, and quickly jumped on the goose's back. Leaping back and forth, kicking each side one by one, clearing the goose out.
The shadow guards also rushed in and surrounded them.
Hao Huashi jumped onto the wall, circling back and forth as if flying...
These big geese were far bigger than the ones outside, and they were so fierce that they would not let go of their bites. The clothes, arms and hands of several people were all hung with goose beaks, and finally the goose mountain in the middle was cleared out.
Then Hao Huashi finally saw a corner of his clothes: "Master is there!!"
Before the words fell, Yuan Shenjue had already patted a goose away with one hand, and saw the dumpling in the middle with its little butt pouted, its two small arms bent, hiding its hands and face, and walked forward without uttering a word. , disguised himself as a goose...
Yuan Shenjue: "..."
Hao Huashi: "..."
Believe it or not, the goose believed it anyway, and it really didn't bite her.
It's really hard to know what to say.
Hurry up to take her out for a check, everyone's arms and legs were scratched by big geese, they were all red, and their clothes were all messed up, only Tuanzi has silly blessings, admit it He was extremely decisive, so, apart from a few goose droppings on his body, he was not hurt at all.
Mrs. Lin was packing up her things because she was going back to the capital with Tuanzi soon, so she didn't see this scene with her own eyes. After hearing what Yuan Shenjue said, she rolled up his sleeves and looked at him, shaking her head again and again: "Why did you hurt so much? Where? You and Huashi switch between kneading."
Tuanziju pulled his wife's arm back distressedly, hugged it with both hands, touched it, and shouted again: "I'm sorry wife, it's all Xinbao's fault, because the big goose is too big, so Xinbao wants them to come out quickly , Xinbao thought they would fly away by themselves, but they didn't expect them to huddle together."
"It's okay," Yuan Chenjue rolled up his sleeves with a smile: "It doesn't hurt, it just scared me."
He still had lingering fears, and couldn't help but tell Mrs. Lin again: "I was really frightened at the time, because I was very close to the treasure at first, a few steps away, but in the blink of an eye, there became A mountain of geese, I am afraid that those geese will crush my heart and scare me to death."
Hao Huashi was also yelled at several times, but he didn't care. He changed his clothes and went out to watch the excitement, and came back to report: "Master!! Go and see, the geese are gone!! Jumped the wall and ran away! !"
Mrs. Lin couldn't help becoming curious, and went out to watch the excitement.
Xinbao was very scared and wanted to see her a little bit, so Yuan Shenjue carried her over, found a roof far away, and watched from afar.
From far away, I saw geese flying and geese jumping over there. The geese flapped their wings, jumping over the wall and jumping like a slippery one. All the tigers and guards couldn't catch it. The scene was extremely funny. Mrs. Lin stood on the wall and swayed with a smile. Shake, almost fell.
Xinbao looked over there, grinned, and silently contributed a little knowledge: "Honey, do you know why geese are so fierce?"
Yuan Shenjue said, "Why?"
"Because the eyes of geese see everything is reduced, so we humans are very small in their eyes, and they are not afraid at all."
Yuan Shenjue was very surprised: "So that's the case."
