Chapter 62 - Plague of Locusts

Li Yu looked up at the locusts in midair and was stunned. She recalled that in her previous life, she had only seen the tragic state of the commoners after the locust plague on television. She had never seen so many locusts with her own eyes.

Li Yu watched as the dark mass got closer and closer. She suddenly thought of burning it with fire. Li Yu shouted at Madam Qian and Li Mei, "Aunt, quickly light up the locusts."

As Li Yu spoke, she ran out and ignited the rapeseed shells and rapeseed poles piled on the ground. The rapeseed poles and rapeseed shells crackled and burned. Li Mei and Madam Qian also ran out to ignite the others.

Everyone raised their wooden sticks and branches to chase the locusts away, but it was useless. They watched helplessly as the locusts flew into the rice field. In an instant, the rice field was filled with locusts. They could only hear the sound of chewing in the rice field. In less than an hour, the acre of rice was only left with bare soil.
