Chapter 38: Insect plague

As soon as Xiao Qiang said this, the old man who spoke was speechless. He also knew that he was offending someone. He immediately explained, "Xiao Qiang, I didn't mean that, but this bug came too quickly. Overnight, there were bugs on the trees. You also knew that the orchard was our lifeblood. Now that the apples are broken, I am also anxious."

"I asked you to sell Xiao Yu, but you can't bear to leave it alone. Now it's broken, and I'm here to find someone again. Our fruits are sold out. If you listen to Xiao Yu's, how could this happen?" Xiao Ping raised his head and said unfairly for Xiao Yu.

Xiao Yu stepped forward and picked up an apple from the villagers' basket. When he saw it, he was shocked because the apple actually had five or six insect eyes. Although these insect eyes were not big, it was impossible to sell it.

"Uncles and uncles, I have no choice but to have bugs in this apple! Grandpa and I have learned some Taoism, but I can only catch ghosts. I have no good idea for this bug! I saw that these bugs came strangely, so everyone should stop standing here anymore. Hurry up and pick the fruits that were not eaten by the bugs, and count as much as they can be sold."

"Also, we can pick the apples that the insects eat to make cider, which is better than being eaten by insects."

Xiao Yu, based on his experience in living in Shimo Village for several years, could only tell these two methods. As for other things, he had no good idea for the moment.

"Xiao Yu is right. Now we are mainly to report this matter to the town and ask the mayor to send technicians to see if it can be saved. If we kill insects now, it will be too late."

"Okay, let's go and find a way. Don't stay here. Xiao Yu is not a god. What can I do to find him? Hurry up and buy insecticides. If you are late, there will be no fruit."

Some people in the village took the lead, and others ran out in a swarm. Xiao Qiang and Xiao Yu also followed the crowd and rushed towards the mountain. When they arrived in the orchard, Xiao Yu saw that there were now a kind of red bugs everywhere on the apple trees. Overnight, the orchard seemed to have been looted. Some leaves were eaten by the insects and only a few stubborns were left. However, although there were insects, they were only partially present, and most of the fruit trees were still good.

"Xiao Yu, it's so scary. It's only one day, why is this happening?" Xiao Ping was also stunned by the scene and asked in a low voice.

Xiao Yu shook his head and said that there was a natural disaster, but this natural disaster came too quickly. Now the female ghost has been taken away, so this natural disaster should not come, but now.

Xiao Yu walked around the orchard himself and was about to go back first and asked the female ghost what was going on. Even if a landlord was killed, he would not have such a big reaction.

Sitting in the room, Xiao Yu took a deep breath and pasted a few talismans in the room. Then he took out the talisman that sealed the female ghost and threw it out. After the talisman flew, the female ghost was dressed in red and appeared in the house. However, the female ghost is no longer as fierce as before, and after coming out, she bowed to Xiao Yu.

"I'll ask you, what's going on with the bugs in the orchard?" Xiao Yu said, throwing a leaf covered with small insects to the female ghost. After all, the female ghost was sealed, and she didn't know what was happening outside.

When the woman saw the zodiac insects on the tree, she frowned and said, "This matter has nothing to do with me. Although I killed the Land Lord and affected the land here, I really don't know the origin of the insect."

"I don't know? This bug ate half of the fruits in the orchard overnight, and it was last night. You said it had nothing to do with you?" Xiao Yu's eyes slowly became cold. In his opinion, this bug must have something to do with the female ghost.

Seeing that Xiao Yu was unhappy, the female ghost knew that the matter was serious and immediately said, "This matter really has nothing to do with me. Besides, where did I find so many bugs? But when you talk about bugs, I can tell you some news."

"What news?"

"When I first became a ghost spirit, I sensed that there was an insect king in the mountain. But at that time, I was afraid that the City God would come to capture me, so I didn't go to find it. After the Land Lord was swallowed by me, there was no protection of the Land Spirit in this land, and any creature could come in, so I think this matter should be related to the insect king."

"The Insect King?"

"What's the ability of the insect king? He actually made so many insects spread throughout Shimo Village overnight?" Xiao Yu continued to ask.

"I don't know, I haven't seen it before," said the female ghost.

"You should have been to the ancient tomb in the back mountain, right?" Xiao Yu suddenly thought of the ancient tomb and asked immediately.

"Of course I went, that zombie was brought out from the ancient tomb! Why, do you want to go in and find a treasure?" The female ghost covered her mouth and smiled, then continued, "That ancient tomb is not an ordinary ancient tomb. How deep is it inside, I don't know, but judging from the aura emitted by the ancient tomb, a woman should be buried there, and that woman should have become a zombie, but no one has entered yet. As long as you absorb a little yang energy, the zombie will probably be resurrected. By the way, do you think this bug came out of the ancient tomb?"

The news of the female ghost made Xiao Yu shocked. The zombie came out of the ancient tomb, which he could think of, but was the seemingly ordinary ancient tomb still the concubine, or the tomb of the emperor's children not? Then, was the zombie he killed before the burial civil servant?

Thinking of this, Xiao Yu felt a chill on his body. In a woman's tomb, there was just a zombie, which made the village uneasy. If all the zombies in the tomb came out, it would be a big fuss.

"Do you know how many zombies are there in the ancient tomb?" Xiao Yu continued to ask.

"I don't know a few zombies, but I know there are many treasures in this tomb. I wanted to hide in it at the beginning, but the corpse in the tomb was too heavy. I took a look at it briefly, and there were several large boxes of gold, silver and jewelry. With your skills, you can try it out, take out one or two pieces and go to the city for auction. Maybe you will become a millionaire in one night."

The female ghost's words made Xiao Yu feel excited. He could become a millionaire with just one or two pieces. How many houses would he have to build? So at this time, Xiao Yu made up his mind to go to the tomb. Not to mention the zombies, even the treasures, he could not let go.

But now we should find out the insect king first. No matter what monster the other party is, we should deal with it first, so as not to stay in the mountains as a disaster! Also, now that the female ghost is killed, we should invite the Land Lord here quickly, otherwise it will continue like this. Before the heavenly punishment comes, people will probably be killed by monsters.

After asking two more questions, Xiao Yu put away the female ghost. Suddenly, Xiao Yu found that there was a powerful female ghost around him. For him, there was a big deal. Just talk about this news, this female ghost provided him with important information.

"Word King, what's the thing? Have the insects been cultivated into spirits?" Xiao Yu turned around the house, and suddenly felt aroused in his heart. "By the way, please ask the mountain god, he should know the other party's background."
