"Old woman, whose land is that? Why are you confiscating it?"

Zhou Juan was busy moving rice. When she heard her husband's words, she looked up and gasped.

"Oh my god, how come there is such a large piece of land?"

"Hey, I'm asking who your family is."

The village chief really didn't expect that after the villagers had been working hard for a day and a night, there were still people who could hold their temper and refused to cut at all.

Zhou Juan had already reacted by now and said casually, "Whose family could it be? The old house of the Li family."

"The old house of the Li family?"

"There is food, there is food. What's going on? Didn't you notify the Li family's old house?"

Li Youliang, who was sweating in the cellar, heard his father's words and shouted back, "Dad, I knocked on the door of the Li family's old house on purpose, and Uncle Li Gui said he knew."

"Grandpa, I saw Grandpa Li Gui going to the fields." Zebao ran home from outside and said.

When Village Chief Li heard what his son and grandson said, he knew what Li Gui was thinking.

It's just that I think it's too early to harvest the rice now, and I want to wait another ten days or half a month until the rice grows full.

If he could really wait until that time, he would also like to wait.

Zebao had never seen his grandfather look so ugly, with both sides of his eyebrows furrowed together.

I didn’t dare to talk to my grandfather anymore, and I quietly changed direction while heading home.

Village Chief Li naturally didn't notice his grandson's little trick. He sighed for a long time and said helplessly: "Forget it, I think I have fulfilled my responsibilities to the village. If someone insists on not listening, what can I do."

Zhou Juan and Village Chief Li have been together for so many years and know their old man very well.

Looking at the old man staring blankly at the unharvested rice fields, you can tell that he is suppressing his pain in his heart.

He threw the rice in his arms to the ground, sat down next to the village chief, and whispered, "Old man, everyone has their own destiny. You have done what you should do. Just have a clear conscience."

"Perhaps Li Gui felt that he had suffered a loss by harvesting the rice, and wanted to let the rice grow for a few more days."

When Zhou Juan advised the village chief not to think too much and take all the responsibility on himself.

Ninety-nine percent of the households in the village brought home the rice ears from the fields.

Looking at the full cellar, many people slumped on the ground, unwilling to get up.

"Buzzing..."

The sound moves from far to near.

"Buzzing..."

"Buzzing..."

"what sound?"

The village head and his wife, who were sitting on the doorstep, looked up into the distance and saw a shocking natural scene. They were both horrified.

"Hurry, hurry, come in."

"Where's Zebao?"

"Just went out."

"I'll go find him, you go inside first."

"Dad, you and mom go back to the house first, I'll go look for her."

Li Youliang had just come out of the cellar. When he heard his parents' conversation, he ran out the door, shouting as he ran.

"Zebao, Zebao, where are you?"

"Dad, Dad, I'm here."

Not far away, Zebao was running home quickly with his little feet.

When Li Youliang saw his son, he ran over quickly, picked him up and ran with his head down.

When he got home, he was pulled into the house by his mother.

"Zebao, where have you been?"

"Dad, I was playing by the river, and Sister Yue passed by and asked me to come back."

Li Mengyue's home.

Li An, who was sleeping in bed, heard the sound and jumped down. He asked in confusion, "Wan Niang, did you hear it? It's a buzzing sound."

"Uh-huh."

In the next room, Li Mengyue had silently closed the doors and windows.

I put the King of Kings into the space and saw Tuanzi bullying the little tiger cub from time to time.

Li Mengyue did not interfere with Yi Tonghu's relationship.

At this time, many people walked out of their homes and looked up at the sky.

"Listen, the sound seems to be getting closer."

"Yes, yes, but what is that sound?"

"Strange, it's almost dawn, and the sun usually rises high in the sky, but why is it still foggy today?"

"Who knows? Never mind. I'm so tired. I'm going to go back and have a good sleep."

"Hey, you guys, it hasn't rained for such a long time, is it going to rain?"

"That would be great if that were the case."

"..."

While everyone was chatting, Grandma Wang looked at the sky. The scenes from decades ago unconsciously emerged in her mind, and her heart felt heavy.

That was the case at the time. I was afraid that it was not going to rain, but that locusts were coming.

Thinking of this, Grandma Wang squinted her eyes and saw black spots in the sky, spreading rapidly like dark clouds. The not-so-clear sky was obscured by densely packed things.

A woman standing next to Grandma Wang touched her with her arm and said in a serious tone, "Grandma Wang, does it sound like the fluttering of a moth?"

As the woman finished speaking, the other villagers looked at the dark mass getting closer and closer to them.

Li Mengyue, who was staying in the space, heard what the villagers said.

Tuanzi, who came out directly from the space and was playing with the king of kings, stopped playing and stood on Li Mengyue's shoulder with a serious face.

【Host, the locust plague is coming. 】

Li Mengyue naturally knew that the locust plague that the system had warned two months ago, which covered a large area and was likely to sweep across the entire Qingshan Prefecture, was coming at an unstoppable pace.

【Tuanzi, start live streaming. 】

[Yes, host. 】

[Hey, host, you don't have to tell me, I will also start the live broadcast and let the fans see what a real locust plague is. ]

When the locust plague came, Li Mengyue couldn't hide in the room. She wanted to take the opportunity to do something big.

"Locusts, locusts are coming!!!"

"Ah! The locusts are so big."

The villagers standing in front of the open space saw the overwhelming swarms of locusts flying towards them and their faces turned pale with fright.

They were all in a daze and didn't know how to hide.

The village chief asked his eldest son to tell the villagers to hide.

Li Youliang yelled at the top of his lungs.

"The locusts are coming. Everyone should go home quickly and close the doors and windows."

Some villagers came to their senses amid the shouting and said anxiously: "Go home quickly, the locusts in this plague are too ferocious, not only will they leave no grass, but they will also hurt people."

Grandma Wang's face was filled with fear. Her mother was afraid that the chickens would be scared away by the locusts, so she went out to catch the chickens. As a result, she was pounced upon by the locusts as soon as she went out.

Although she pulled her mother back to the room in time, her body was covered in blood from bites and she eventually died.

Thinking of her mother who died when she was a child, Grandma Wang was so frightened that cold air kept coming out of her head.

At this time, Li Mengyue walked into the crowd, pressed her hands down, and suddenly there was only the buzzing sound of locusts.

"Don't panic, everyone. This locust plague is very large in scale and the number of locusts is very large. The ones coming now are the vanguard. There will be more locusts coming in a few days."

It would have been better if Li Mengyue hadn't said anything. But when she heard that the swarm of locusts were just the vanguard, she became even more panicked.

However, seeing how calm Li Mengyue was, the bewildered villagers seemed to have found their backbone and began to speak.

"Mengyue, whatever you say, I'll do it. I'll do whatever you say."

"Yes, Yue girl, you are knowledgeable and you must know how to deal with locusts. We will all follow your instructions."

"Isn't it, big guy?"

"That's right, we'll do whatever Meng Yue (Yue girl, Sister Yue) says."
