Chapter 28

However, after searching around, why didn’t I find Chen Buyi’s figure?

He turned his face and asked, "Have you ever seen Shen Buyi?"

The subordinate quietly took out the portrait of Shenbuyi from his arms and confirmed again, "Sir, really, there is no one."

"What the hell is this guy?"

Jia Cheng muttered in a low voice.

His eyes swept through the crowd, and suddenly, he discovered a new world and pointed at the place where Chen Buyi hides, "Chen Buyi is there, keep a close eye on me."

Yao Yi was secretly happy when he saw more and more people watching. This was a great opportunity.

He ordered people to take some sesame oil, wine, and rice and put it on the table.

"Everyone, I am the imperial envoy Yao Yi, and I will go to Qiu'an County to treat locusts under the order of the emperor."

"Sir, how do you plan to cure locusts?"

Someone among the people asked loudly.

"Yeah, good question."

Yao Yi nodded with a smile.

"Everyone, my strategy for treating locusts is very simple. You can go outside the city and catch locusts.

If you bring a hundred locusts, you can replace one or two taels of sesame oil, two hundred locusts, and half a pound of rice.

If you catch three hundred locusts, you will enjoy a pot of wine in addition to giving sesame oil and rice.”

The onlookers were all stunned after hearing these words.

Catch locusts.

A method that has never been seen since ancient times.

A moment of silence, an embarrassing silence.

None of the people watching spoke out.

"Hey, what are you waiting for? Go and catch locusts."

County Magistrate Hu Guang shouted anxiously.

"Master Qingfeng said that he could not catch them. These were sent by the gods, so he could only practice the method of sacrifice."

Someone whispered.

Gradually, more and more people followed suit, and then they dispersed in groups of three or three.

Seeing this, Yao Yi was so anxious that he stomped his feet. Even if he shouted, the people still left without hesitation.

Chen Buyi kept sighing secretly, "Ah, the people are ignorant, and they stick to these old-fashioned dogmas, but they don't know that these things are mostly wrong."

Everything is difficult at the beginning, but this situation is expected by Shen Buyi.

He took a few steps and caught up with the people who had just called the most fiercely, "Brother, please ask where is the Xianju of Taoist Qingfeng? I want to ask for a visa!"

The people looked at him squintedly, "Brother, you're not a local."

Chen Buyi sighed, "Brother, I have such a vision. I am a native of Dongquan County. We have suffered a locust plague. I wanted to come to Qiu'an County to visit relatives and friends, but I didn't expect that the locust plague here, alas..." Hearing him say this, there was a hint of sympathy in the eyes of the people.

"Brother, I'll tell you, when you go out of the south gate, there is a big green mountain five miles away, with Qingfeng Temple on it, and Taoist Qingfeng is inside."

"Oh, I heard that the visa request is very effective there."

Chen Buyi continued to ask.

"Spiritual, very spiritual."

After saying that, the people left in a hurry.

It seems that if you want to open up the situation, this Taoist Qingfeng is very important.

Almost at the same time, Zhang Zijing brought five hundred imperial guards to Dongquan County majestic.

County Magistrate Guo Lin had already been waiting outside the city gate.

Guo Lin is a slightly fat middle-aged man with a haggard face.

The disaster is serious, so for this parent, it is naturally difficult to sleep and eat. Now I am looking forward to the stars and the moon, and finally I am looking forward to the savior.

The joy on the face smoothed out the old wrinkles.

But what Zhang Zijing did next surprised him.

After sending the imperial envoy into the county government, Guo Lin briefly told the disaster in the county.

The disaster in Dongquan County is not much better than Qiu'an County.

More than half of the crops in the county have been eaten up.

After talking about the disaster, Guo Lin looked at the young imperial envoy with anticipation.

Zhang Zijing smiled slightly.

"Mr. Guo, it's very simple to treat locusts. You guys just don't use your brain."

In a word, Guo Lin was a little embarrassed.

But he had to nod and agree.

After teaching Guo Lin, Zhang Zijing continued: "Mr. Guo, we have already studied the method of treating locusts in Chang'an. You just need to send people to catch more locusts, set up a pan of oil at the gate of the four cities, and fry the locusts sour on the outside and tender on the inside, so that the people can taste it. After eating it, they will naturally catch the locusts and fry them to eat it."

This... Guo Lin was speechless when he heard this.

This is what method to cure locusts?

However, after all, it was the intention of the imperial envoy, and he had to follow the instructions.

Ideals are like Internet celebrities who dress up, but reality is Qiao Biluo who has taken off her makeup.

From noon to dark, there were no more than a few thousand fried locusts on the city gates around them. However, except for a few ignorant children who came to pick up a few, none of the onlookers took action.

Zhang Zijing couldn't sit still anymore.

Locust control is a timely task. If you delay one more day, the locusts can eat hundreds of acres of crops.

Seeing him anxiously wandering around the room.

Zhang San next to him couldn't help but speak.

"Young Master, I think it is better to..." "Yes, reward, reward."

Zhang Zijing immediately smiled happily.

View of the Qingfeng in the Great Qingshan Mountains.

On a large square table, all kinds of dishes were placed in full bloom.

Taoist Qingfeng sat on the head seat with a proud look on his face.

Someone next to him brought him a bowl of wine and said with a smile: "Master, I heard from the people at the foot of the mountain that the imperial envoy came today. He set up a table in front of Bafangwei, sesame oil, rice, and fine wine. He arranged a large number of pieces to encourage the people to catch locusts.

It is said that locusts can be used to exchange these things."

Qingfeng's smile suddenly froze slightly.

The man continued, "Guess what?"

The people ran away, and no one listened to him."

Hearing this, Qingfeng's smile became even stronger.

"Yeah, okay, run well."

After a pause, Qingfeng continued to say to the man: "I can't help but eat and drink well later. You all go down the mountain and find more people and tell them that God of Heaven gave me a dream last night. If anyone dares to hunt and kill locusts, God of Heaven will definitely punish him."

At this time, under the window outside the room, Shen Buyi, Niu Su and others had already touched it.

Shen Buyi wanted to rush in immediately, grabbed Master Qingfeng and went down the mountain, but when he heard what he said, he suddenly changed his mind.

Suddenly, a burst of rapid footsteps came from outside.

I looked up and saw that there was a bamboo forest in front of me, which was a good place to hide.

He waved his hand and hid in with Niu Sufengwu and others.

Not long after I hid my body, I heard someone enter the Taoist temple.

"Master, I am a person sent by Xishan."

Hearing this sentence, a hint of surprise flashed across Qingfeng's face.

The person who came was a young man in his twenties, and his face was flushed because he could run in time.

"Oh, it's Brother Jiangquan who has arrived, sit down and have a drink."
