Natural disasters come: I become a big boss by picking up scraps

Chapter 166 Complete outbreak
Insect plagues are spreading faster than extreme heat.

Yesterday the sky cleared up after the rain and the scene was full of vitality, but today, the outside has become the world of insects.

It's not just outside. Some windows are not sealed so well, and bugs will get in through all kinds of narrow gaps, constantly attacking and harassing people in the room.

Do you know what it means to kill dozens or even hundreds of mosquitoes with just a slap?

Moreover, after research by entomologists, most of these insects were newly-born species, which means that they knew nothing about them.

A few insects they were familiar with, such as mosquitoes and flies, also underwent varying degrees of mutation.

With the Cordyceps and Fragrant Spike, Ling Mo and his companions don't have such worries.

A few people who were worried took the lit scented spikes and carefully smoked the house, and then used putty and glue to block all possible gaps.

In addition, water pipes, sewers and toilets were all blocked.

Now the water flowing out of the pipes is full of insect eggs and is not drinkable at all.

As for the sewers and toilets, what if insects crawl into their homes through these two places? So it is better to block them.

As for the problem of going to the toilet, Ling Mo had stockpiled a lot of cat litter before, so he just had to dispose of it in time after going to the toilet.

In short, I would rather cause myself some trouble than give the bugs any chance to take advantage.

Ling Mo looked at the mosquitoes flying outside and suddenly thought of a video he had seen before.

I took out my phone and found the video saved in my favorites, which showed the method of making mosquito patties.

The sound of the cell phone attracted Ye Kai.

Looking at the dark food playing on his phone, Ye Kai showed a look of horror, "You don't want to eat this, do you? No, no, Mo Mo, we haven't reached this point yet."

Ling Mo rolled his eyes at him and said, "I didn't say I wanted to eat this."

"If you're not going to eat it, then why are you looking at this?" Ye Kai asked.

"These bugs may be a new food source."

Ye Kai stared at her with eyes wide open, "You have such a strong taste."

Hearing this, Ling Mo shrugged, "I'm just saying that it's possible, and before the end of the world, many areas were looking for insects to eat, and some insects were more expensive than meat."

"I can't accept that either. I'd rather starve than eat bugs."

Ling Mo shook his head. "To be able to say something like that means you have never really been hungry."

"How come I've never been hungry? In the fourth round of the game, on the Klino grassland, my boss and I were so hungry that we almost ate dirt. We didn't even touch those bugs."

Isn't it because we are not sure whether those insects are poisonous that we don't touch them?

At this time, few people on the Internet are discussing things like drunkenness and planet auctions.

After all, this kind of thing is too far away for ordinary people and ordinary players like them.

Their main concern now is the problem of insects.

Originally they thought the extreme heat was over. Although the problem of land pollution had not been solved, they believed that better days were not far away.

What they didn't expect was that instead of waiting for good days, they got hit hard.

The overwhelming swarm of bugs was more menacing than the extreme heat.

And this time it's not just the land pollution problem that needs to be solved, now even the water source is polluted.

Although because of Ling Mo, many people knew the effect of the insect-attracting grass and ate it as soon as possible. After eating the insect-attracting grass, although the insects could not get close to them, it did not mean that they would not be affected by the insects.

All those who have eaten the Cordyceps sinensis will become a vacuum zone for insects within a half-meter radius, but outside half a meter, black swarms of insects will continue to surround them.

The sounds of insects chirping and wings flapping never stop, like a noise machine that never stops 24 hours a day.

Although the insects could not get close, people were tortured badly.

Moreover, people soon discovered that although those who took the Cordyceps sinensis would not be attacked by insects, the number of insects that gathered around them was unusually large.

In order to test the effect of attracting Cordyceps, some people went out on purpose. The result was that the attracting Cordyceps was indeed effective, but when they came back, they also brought back a lot of lingering insects.

The internet is now filled with cries for help.

Just as Ling Mo had guessed before, in less than half a day, the base introduced new regulations, and they were about insects.

Research by entomologists has shown that the following insects are edible, and photos of the insects are attached.

There are seven or eight different kinds of bugs, and mosquitoes are among them.

In addition to the appearance of the bug, the production method is also included below.

In addition, the base encourages people to catch insects, whether edible or not, which will be collected by the base. Insects of different weights can be exchanged for different foods.

At the same time, the base also announced that they had developed a nutrient solution.

A small bottle of nutrient solution the size of oral liquid can provide people with the energy they need for a day.

Of course, we are referring to ordinary people here.

The energy required by gifted people in a day is several times that of ordinary people.

Therefore, for convenience, the base specially released the Puls version of the nutrient solution.

With the introduction of this regulation, people who were hiding at home also plucked up the courage to go out.

After all, life has to go on, and they and their families have to eat.

Moreover, with the Cordyceps, when they go out, only their ears will suffer, and they themselves will not be in any danger.

The most important thing is that the rewards given by the base are really generous.

Not only is food scarce, but even drinking water is difficult for them.

Although experts have said that there will be no problem for people who have eaten Cordyceps sinensis to drink water, and even if the worm eggs are drunk into the stomach, they will be excreted from the body in a short time, but still no one dares to try it.

Even if the water was boiled, few people dared to drink it.

Because after the water is boiled, the originally clear water turns into yellow-brown, and some even turn green. That is not water at all, it is simply a bowl of insect egg soup. Who would dare to drink it?

Ling Mo and his friends had no desire to receive the rewards from the base, but they still planned to go out and take a look.

They had already cleaned the area around the house and even applied herbicides and quicklime to suppress the growth of weeds, but it didn't seem to be very effective.

As soon as I went out, a group of insects immediately surrounded me.

From a distance, the few people looked like a moving cocoon made up of insects.

After clearing the newly grown weeds and Cordyceps sinensis around the house, a layer of quicklime was covered on top.
