Chapter 373 Decided, I still have tools

"Wild Boar Col."

Ye Zhenming nodded: "I know this place. That place seems to have been fought in the war before the founding of the People's Republic of China. You also know that the first resistance started from us. There were many wars at that time, and that place was occupied by a

It was blown up by a cannonball."

Only then did Su He know where the big pit in Yezhu Pass came from.

They just didn't expect that the big hole would now bring them trouble again.

The conditions for locusts to hatch are relatively humid, but also require direct sunlight.

In the vast fields, there are relatively few areas that meet this condition.

Therefore, they tend to lay eggs in large numbers in a relatively small area.

In addition, the difference in temperature and humidity in this small area is very small, so that the eggs hatch uniformly, so that the locust larvae form a living habit of moving closer to each other and following each other from the beginning.

This is also the reason why locusts cause disasters.

If these locusts scatter and spread out, they may be eaten directly by birds.

But when so many locusts gather together and act together, it's a very scary thing.

Not long after, Uncle Jiu came over with the men and women in the village, and a few brave boys also followed.

Gu Dong and Ye Chengbo also came. Ye Chengbo had been setting up the stall for a long time and planned to take a break these days. The egg pancake stall was given to another person.

It's not very difficult anyway, just learn it and you can get started.

Su He did not continue the previous topic, this point was already very disappointing.

Let’s solve this side first and then talk about it. Once this side is solved, everyone will have confidence and it will be easier to handle.

"Oh my god, are there really so many locusts?"

Some people exclaimed. Although they were not too suspicious before coming, they were still dubious in their hearts.

At this moment, after seeing the actual situation, many people remembered the several disasters that had happened in the past.

The most terrifying one was that the flood was followed by a drought, and there was also a locust plague. It was really terrifying.

Uncle Jiu and the others came over with fishing nets, and Su He whispered to Uncle Jiu about the situation at Ye Boar Col.

Uncle Jiu was shocked and shocked inside, but he didn't show it on the surface.

Several people came together and discussed it, but there was no good solution.

"Besides, it's not easy to deal with so many locusts."

Su He shook his head: "As long as we catch the locusts, they are very easy to deal with. Gather the chickens and ducks, and when the locusts are released net by net, there won't be enough for the chickens and ducks to eat."

That's true. Uncle Jiu glanced at Su He: "No wonder you persuaded uncle to ask everyone to raise chickens and ducks. Did you have this in mind?"

Su He did his part: "Of course, this is also my main precaution. But even if there is no locust plague, wouldn't our chickens and ducks be able to make a lot of money from laying eggs? These days, there are many chickens and ducks that can be put into the market. I

It can be collected here, and my restaurant over there is about to open, so it can be the main dish."

Although everyone had sad expressions on their faces, some people still thanked him: "He Yaozi is indeed a smart man who has read a book. I will definitely send my little brat to school in the future. My uncle is right.

This book must be read.”

This is just a side effect.

Uncle Jiu was a little solemn. It was difficult to deal with so many locusts: "If we go in, we will touch so many locusts. When the time comes, they will bite people and they can even eat them."

This is definitely not alarmist. One or two locusts do not have so much power.

But right now, there are probably tens of thousands, or even hundreds of thousands, of locusts here.

There are so many locusts, it is not difficult to eat a lot of people.

Just like killer ants, they can eat a large animal down to its bones in an instant.

Su He suddenly said: "Otherwise, we would be in these locations..."

Su He said, making a simple map with branches on the ground: "In these places, cut branches and burn a few fires. Although there is a saying that moths fly into the fire, but in broad daylight, locusts must be

Afraid of fire."

In fact, there are so many locusts. If you have intelligence, it is not difficult to put out the fire with a small number of locusts.

But locusts have no intelligence. As long as a fire is lit, they will definitely not jump into the fire in broad daylight.

"Others hold the nets, let's take our time. Divide into two teams. One team casts the net, nets a large number of locusts, and then moves back. The people behind follow. The people in front tie the net, and first

Put it aside and take the fishing nets over as backup, Uncle Jiu, do you think this is okay?"

After listening to Su He's words, Uncle Jiu thought about it carefully and realized that it was not impossible.

The reason why several fires need to be burned is because those places are weak and difficult to block, and can easily become loopholes.

By lighting a fire, the locusts have fewer outlets and they don't have to guard so many places.

If a large number of locusts are allowed to escape, it will be a big trouble.

It would be a good idea to divide it up like this.

Ye Zhenhan also nodded: "Okay, I'm thinking about it, this is a good way. We have no other way, we can only do this."

A few people will discuss it and then take action.

Su He shouted again: "Wait a minute, I bought some rubber clothes and a net hat from the city before, but I forgot to take them out. I'll go back first. Uncle Jiu, please ask someone to follow me.

Come on, let's have people wear these. People on both sides of the fishing net have to go deep into the locusts, which is still very dangerous."

He bought this before. Who knew that something like this would happen today?

This is also not enough.

Speaking of which, this batch of clothes and hats was specially produced thanks to Yuan Shuhai's relationship.

This can be considered as owing a favor.

But as long as we can protect everyone, this little favor is nothing.

Uncle Jiu was stunned for a moment, but he still nodded: "Hold on, I'll have someone go back with you. The locusts may leave this place at some point. When you pass by, I'll have someone circle you out first."

We have dug up trees and weeds in several places to prevent fires from being lit later and spreading sparks. We have already burned a piece of the mountain."

In fact, if there is no other way, it would be cost-effective to set fire to the mountain and eliminate the locusts.

But the situation is not desperate now, and the locusts can also run away. The fire may not be able to burn all the locusts by then.

It’s better not to burn the mountain before reaching the last step.

Here are the treasures given to them by nature.

If it's burned, doesn't it mean you're losing money?

Su He nodded and immediately asked Uncle Jiu to send someone to follow him.

When he arrived at home, Su He deliberately took the first step. He was fast and arrived earlier than others.

He immediately took out these things, and when others arrived, he saw a pile of things piled up in the yard of Su He's house.

Looking at these things, they knew that Su He must have spent a lot of money.
