"Excuse me," Xiao Hua poked the smallest finger out and then jabbed it inside his ear before twisting it to the side. Only then did he turn to look at Yu Dong and question her, "I did not hear you just now. Can you repeat it? This time slowly and with words that I can understand."
The rest of the mers also turned to look at Yu Dong as if waiting for her to repeat what she had said just now. Because there was no way she asked them to catch those hideous things even if they somehow managed to catch them. What were they supposed to do with it?
Yu Dong smiled at their reactions. She chuckled softly and said, "You are looking down on those locusts too much. Not only can they be eaten and turned into sauces but they could also be used as wonderful fertilisers."
"What did you say? Those things can be eaten?" Chen Mi raised his voice. He turned around and peeked out of the window before turning to look at Yu Dong before saying, "How can those disgusting things be eaten?"
He didn't like the thought of bringing those things inside his house, much less his kitchen.
"They can be eaten and I think they taste a bit like chicken and crab roe," Yu Dong answered her husbands whose expression turned a bit sympathetic. What kind of life had Yu Dong lived? She also ate things like locusts.
Seeing their expression she knew that they had misunderstood what she was saying but Yu Dong did not correct them. If she told them that she only read about the taste of the locusts, then they would never believe her.
"Anyway, what I am saying is that we should turn this disaster into an opportunity. Since these things can be used to make fertilizers then we should catch them, it will also slow down their momentum," Yu Dong said, she paused and added, "I also have a feeling that some people would need the locust sauce in the future."
No sooner did she finish speaking than someone roared and howled in the distance, "My food! My food! Ahhh! We are ruined." It was most probably someone from the Rong family.
Yu Dong did not feel sorry for that family, it was only right for them to learn their lesson. But she was afraid that the Rong family would start causing trouble if they lost all their food, after all, they were the ones who raised Rong Xi into a good-for-nothing woman.
Old Master Rong even taught Rong Xi to kill someone for the sake of benefit. She was afraid that if the Rong family was pushed to a corner they would start stealing.
So she wanted to leave some way out for them.
"But..there are so many locusts," Fang Chi said as he pointed at the sky. "How can we catch them?" Wouldn't they be bitten and bloodied if they stepped out of the house in such a situation?
Village Head Gu on the other hand heaved a sigh of relief as she looked at the sky that had turned completely dark. It was as if night had fallen.
"Fortunately we harvested the rice," Village Head Gu said with a pat on her chest. "If not then we would have suffered a loss as well." Even though the vegetables and fruits were being raised in the greenhouses, the same could not be done with rice and wheat.
For the farmers their crops were like their children, they stayed all day and night to grow them. If even a mu of land was destroyed, it would be a loss for the farmers.
Especially when there was a drought going on. If they stopped supplying rice to the town, then it wouldn't take long for their village to be attacked by external forces, not to mention that internal struggle would also arise if they were to lose the harvest of the rice.
This time around even though the harvest of rice did not go as they planned, it was better than nothing.
"We are blessed by the heavens, fortunately, we knew to harvest the rice ahead of the time or else…" Village Head Gu shook her head.
Shen Li and the mers turned to the heavens about whom Village Head Gu was talking about, she looked quite pleased with the praise that was given to her.
"Do you think you are worthy of this praise?" Shen Li pinched his wife on the praise. She almost caused the entire village to get a heart attack. If anyone found out the things that she had done, let him see if they still thanked her.
Indirectly as well.
Yu Dong simply swatted his hand and then said, "I do. Don't you see that the entire village's rice has been harvested? I was right to do such a thing, alright."

"What about the aching waists and calves of the women of the village?" Ye Liu glanced at his wife who looked anywhere but him.
"It's nothing that hot water will not soothe," said Yu Dong as she turned to look at Village Head Gu and the rest of the women. She cleared her throat and raised her voice, "Hunter Yan, come with me. I will tell you and your team what you need to do."
Hunter Yan nodded as she followed Yu Dong out of the living hall. The two of them came to a stop in front of a window that had a little circular opening.
There was a small X bow that was arranged in front of it, the rest of the windows had the same arrangement in front of them. Each X bow was facing the sky at the moment.
"I only need your team to take aim and attack the locusts in the sky with flaming arrows. Do it until you run out of the arrows," as Yu Dong spoke she walked over to the small cabinet and pulled the arrows that were placed in small buckets. "Hunter Yan come and help me…" Continue your journey at novelbuddy
However, even after waiting for two seconds, she did not hear an answer.
