Chapter 72
Officer Wang immediately got goosebumps, and his colleagues' scalps were about to explode too!
A mountain of insects and a sea of insects!
Using this word to describe it is not an exaggeration at all!
They came to collect samples, but now there were hardly any seedlings left, not even a few weeds. Strangely enough, the insects didn't seem to like the weeds; they saw several long weeds that no one seemed to care for.
A young police officer stared in disbelief and asked Officer Wang, "Master, what should we do?"
Officer Wang, what can Officer Wang do?
In his more than ten years of police service, he has never had such experience.
Finally, he said to the young officer, "Go and pull up a few vegetable seedlings!"
Even the roots of vegetable seedlings can be tested!
Otherwise, what else can we do?
Hopefully, we can still find the roots of the vegetable seedlings!
"it is good."
The young police officer agreed, but hesitated for a moment because she had no idea where to start in the vegetable patch!
Tell him to avoid the layers of colorful insects and find the roots of the vegetable seedlings.
I can’t find it. I can’t find it at all!
Tell him to push the bugs away?
It's impossible, absolutely impossible!
Once the vegetable seedlings were pulled out by the roots, he didn't want his hands anymore...
So he looked around on the ground and found a short twig. He thought he could use it to avoid the insect mountain. Although it was short, it was better than touching the insects directly with his hands.
Just thinking about that soft, squishy texture made his scalp tingle.
But as soon as he pinched it between his two fingers, the wooden, taut "twig" that he could clearly feel as "hard" suddenly softened, and the end that wasn't pinched immediately clung to his fingers!
"Ah ah ah ah ah ah ah!!!"
The young police officer was completely unprepared; he screamed and frantically shook his hand—
Holy crap, crap, crap! ! !
The essence of Chinese culture resides in his heart; if it weren't for his moral character and ethics, he would have already spoken about it!
How can there be an insect that looks so much like a twig?!
He shook off the twigs and insects, rubbing his hands frantically. At that moment, he truly didn't want his hands anymore!
"Get out!"
Seeing his apprentice so frightened and pathetic, Officer Wang had no choice but to take matters into his own hands. He had initially rolled up his sleeves, but then changed his mind and put them down.
He even ran a little further away and carefully found a branch that was more than 20 centimeters long—he firmly believed that no insect could grow that long!
His intuition was right; it was indeed a tree branch. He returned to the ridge, but there was nowhere to step. He could only step over the insects. With each step, the fragile insects' internal organs burst out, splattering all over the soles of his shoes.
Oh--
Officer Wang's face scrunched up in disgust. He carefully picked the insects apart and searched painstakingly, only to be surprised to find that the seedlings had not been completely devoured; a small, tender leaf still remained in the middle!
Very, very small!
It's about the size of a grain of rice!
He pulled up seventeen or eighteen vegetable seedlings, and the swarms of bugs on his shoes and trouser legs really disgusted him!
What's wrong? You won't let me touch the seedlings? You want to carry them away?
Finally, he calmly and firmly left the vegetable garden to take the samples to the car for testing.
—In fact, it took him a lifetime of self-control to keep himself from running!
He knew there were insects, like caterpillars, in the countryside, but the sight today really shocked him so much that it triggered his trypophobia!
The seedlings were eaten by insects before they even grew up. Will there be any problems?
Of course there is none.
Like wild vegetables, they detected that both wild vegetables and cultivated leafy greens, which are extremely popular with insects, were of excellent quality and rich in nutrients, and had absolutely nothing to do with YS.
They received a 110 emergency call at 10 p.m. last night, reporting someone with their real name that someone was committing FD!
It's worth it!
They dispatched the police immediately!
The person who opened the door was a young woman. She was extremely surprised to see them. When she heard that it was her father-in-law who had called the police, her face immediately turned dark. They thought she was the one who was doing drugs!
Later, the old gentleman came out somewhat displeased, actually complaining about why they came at this hour! Couldn't they have waited until tomorrow?!
They were all shocked.
This emergency call is made directly to the 110 emergency call center. After receiving the call and verifying the exact location, the emergency call center will immediately contact the nearest police station. No matter when or where, they will dispatch officers immediately.
Isn't this common sense?
Once you call the police, they must dispatch officers immediately!
If you want them to come tomorrow, then you should report it tomorrow!
After hearing the whole story, although they felt it was full of loopholes, they still conducted urine tests on the family out of caution.
Throughout the entire ordeal, the young woman's face remained grim. She was the old man's daughter-in-law, and her eyes seemed to want to devour him. He even suspected that if they weren't there, his daughter-in-law might have committed some outrageous act and assaulted her father-in-law!
After all, the family's test results were normal. Getting the two children up and then putting them back to sleep caused a lot of chaos.
Li Dali's daughter-in-law said it was a misunderstanding. The wild vegetables her father-in-law mentioned were bought from a small vendor named Bailu. They tasted absolutely delicious, but because they were so popular, they were often sold out. During this period, her family had some things to do and didn't have time to pick wild vegetables, so the supply was cut off for a few days. They didn't manage to get many wild vegetables, and they finished them off by being careful with their food. Without wild vegetables, everything tasted a little different.
So, she was understandably upset, and her father-in-law called the police.
That's the gist of it.
Moreover, Zhang Zhengjia, who was in charge of market supervision, was also a loyal fan of their family. As a result, Zhang Zhengjia was also forced to take a urine test. Although the result was normal, they were required to keep the matter strictly confidential and not to reveal any information to anyone, especially the Bailu family.
When dealing with dynamic programming (DP), one must be cautious; it's better to err on the side of caution than to disregard it entirely.
Without any evidence, they even applied for a permit when they went to Bailu's house.
The results so far show no abnormalities. The egret family is completely innocent and has no history of illegal or criminal activities.
However, upon seeing this unusual vegetable patch, Officer Wang proceeded with caution. Even though the seedlings showed no abnormalities, he still took a few insects back with him.
As soon as Officer Wang and the others left, Bai Chen was beaten by Qin Xiu. While beating him, Qin Xiu cursed, "This is the vegetable garden you're looking at! Where are the vegetables!" Although Qin Xiu was also afraid of these insects, she did not hold back at all when beating Bai Chen.
She knew it!
These two little ones are unreliable. I don't know how they've been feeding the pigs these past few days, but they've actually gotten thinner.
She kept hitting Bai Chen, crying as she did so. All those seedlings were gone, and they were all infested with bugs. In a couple of days, their house might be overrun with bugs!
Bai Lu didn't have time to dwell on Li Dali's fake police report. She quickly went to check all the fields: six acres of leafy greens, five acres of melon vines, and five acres of peanuts. None of them were spared; not a single green leaf could be seen. At most, only a bare stalk remained.
Even Bai Lu herself couldn't accept this outcome, let alone Qin Xiu, who had spent so much manpower and resources leveling the vegetable garden, only to have it all wiped out overnight.
Actually, there is a way, which is to use spiritual power to promote the growth of wild vegetables, but with more than ten acres of land and Bai Lu's cultivation level having dropped significantly, she can't be of much help. Bai Wei and Bai Chen don't know anything, so they can only learn on the spot. This is not something that can be learned overnight; it requires a process!
Now that things have come to this, even killing Bai Chen wouldn't help. The most important thing now is to get rid of all these insects.
This matter is urgent.
Bai Jiang said, "I'll go buy some medicine and spread it out. The dead insects will fertilize the soil."
Grandpa Bai shook his head and brushed aside the layer of insects with his hand: "There are too many insects. Look, they're already three or four centimeters long. They're so thick. No medicine can work."
The old man was stunned. He had never seen anything like this in all his years of life. Even the locust plague back then wasn't this bad. Moreover, he had gone to check, and everyone else's land was perfectly fine, but his land was full of insects!
What, is it that God can't stand them farming too much land and is punishing them?
The egret was also worried. She needed to go home and see if there was anything useful in her magic bag. She said to Qin Xiu, "These insects are good stuff too. Let's bring our chickens over and have a feast!"
The insects that ate the "spiritual plant" were also a delicious and satisfying meal for the chickens.
Qin Xiu, her face dark, finally herded all the chickens to the vegetable garden. The crowing of the roosters and hens changed – it was a feast!
What a big meal!
Then, more than a hundred chickens were stuffed.
I can’t finish it, I can’t finish it at all!
Although the meal was exceptionally lavish and unlimited, they really couldn't eat anymore.
The chickens from Uncle Bai and Grandpa Bai's house were also requisitioned. They came with empty stomachs and went back with full bellies. As soon as they got back to the chicken coop, they started to sleep standing up!
After thinking about it, Qin Xiu finally had no choice but to take Bai Chen to town to buy chicks!
I originally wanted to buy chickens, since we eat a lot, but the trunk of that BYD car couldn't hold much at all. It could only fit about twenty or thirty chickens, even if they weighed about a pound.
Finally, she selected one hundred adult chickens and two hundred chicks weighing over one pound each, and asked the owner to deliver them to her door.
Qin Xiu is no longer thinking about whether there is a place to raise so many chickens, because the rice seedlings will be transplanted in a few days, and who will have the energy to take care of the vegetable garden?
At worst, we can send all the chickens to the mountains after the insects are eliminated. The free-range chickens from the orchard sell quite well.
However, Qin Xiu was genuinely frightened by the police coming to her door. In her more than fifty years of life, she had never been to a police station except to apply for an ID card, let alone had two police cars drive to her doorstep. If this matter wasn't explained properly, after going through two rounds of questioning, who knows how many people in her Bai family might have been arrested and imprisoned!
That's how it is in rural areas; rumors and misinformation spread easily.
No one can predict how topics of conversation will be adapted for casual conversation.
She needs to think carefully about how to present the police visit as a good thing!
Bai Jiang pulled Bai Lu aside and asked, "The police said you reported it, is it because your vegetables are selling too well and others are jealous? Is that Li guy also a vegetable buyer?"
"No, he reported us because he couldn't get any vegetables from our farm."
Bai Lu was speechless, but it didn't matter. Li Dali's daughter-in-law would help her pay for it. If nothing unexpected happened, Grandpa Li would have to go to the hospital again!
"What?!" Bai Jiang was stunned. "What kind of nonsense is this?! They report us just because they can't buy vegetables? Is there no law anymore?! From now on... from now on, we won't buy vegetables from them!"
"Okay, I'll do as you say. I'll block him from now on! Dad, you go ahead and do your work, I'm busy too!"
Bai Lu doesn't have time to explain things now. Everyone is thinking about how to deal with these insects, and she needs to think one step further to see if there's any way to save the vegetable seedlings, since she's really spent a lot of time and effort on them.
Just as the pest control operation was in full swing, Bai Chen received a call from his girlfriend, Lin Rui.
Lin Rui works in Dongcheng. She studied biological testing and now works as a tester at a company that produces protein peptides. She works from nine to five, has five social insurances and one housing fund, and alternating weeks of alternating weeks of 5 and 6 days a week, but her salary is not high, only a little over five thousand yuan after taxes.
Today happens to be Saturday, and she and some colleagues made plans to go to a haunted house. She has always been brave and had wanted to go to a haunted house for a long time, but for various reasons she had never been able to. Today, since it was a gathering organized by her boss, she signed up without hesitation.
The group of eight, three men and five women, had a smooth start; they even spent some time at the amusement park before entering the haunted house.
Besides being dark, the haunted house also features various ambient lighting and all sorts of scary props.
Chinese-style horror is the real horror.
They were playing the game of the vanished bride.
In the middle of a huge room sat a red and black coffin, and next to it was a wedding dress dripping blood!
At first, the group was amazed by the meticulous attention to detail in the props—they were so realistic!
Gradually, some people noticed something was wrong, because this blood didn't seem like prop blood; it had a heavy, viscous smell.
Amidst the dripping blood, the wedding dress suddenly began to move in mid-air, its sleeves swirling. The staunch atheist, still stubbornly trying to decipher the mechanism that made the dress move, was met with a silvery laugh and a soft scolding: "Fool..."
Lin Rui was terrified!
He stormed out the door!
No matter how hard they tried, they couldn't get out, and they couldn't contact the staff at the haunted house either!
She immediately tried to call the police, but for some reason, she couldn't get through. She couldn't get through to the police hotline!
I can't even send a distress text message!
In the midst of her panic, she bumped into Bai Chen's phone, and to her surprise, the call went through!
Lin Rui briefly explained the situation to Bai Chen, who immediately became anxious: "Then what's the use of calling me? Call the police right now!! Where exactly are you? I'll call the police for you!"
"What I mean is, please call the police for me!" Lin Rui said, giving him the address.
Bai Chen was about to make a call when he paused, "Wait a minute, what use is it for you to call me!"
"Huh?" Lin Rui was confused. What the heck?
"Find a place to hide, I'll be right there!" Bai Chen said, then hung up the phone and went to find Bai Lu.
"Hello? Hello? Hello, hello, hello?!"
Lin Rui stared blankly at the disconnected phone: "What's the point of you coming here! Call the police, okay?!"
