ch 265 – Fighting Among Themselves; The Gu’s Are Coming (16)
Little Yuteng looked at the bright green meaty bugs and chuckled, “Young mistress, these bugs are resilient. None of the normal pesticides work on them. Your idea of burning them would work, it’s just that they are difficult to gather.”
“Alright, stop laughing at our misfortune here and see if you can think of some ways to get rid of these bugs.”
As she was talking, her eyes beamed all of a sudden, “Little Yuteng, if I remember correctly, don’t we have our own pesticides in the dimension?”
“That’s worth a shot. After all, we have much more powerful pesticides in the dimension than what you have on the outside.”
As she was talking, little Yuteng grabbed some of them and directly sprinkled them onto the bugs. As they looked on, collapsed onto the ground and started curling up into balls. Slowly, the green on their body faded and their body started to shrink. Finally, under their intent stare, they all turned into powder and disappeared.
“Wowsa, these pesticides are ridiculously amazing!” Cheng Xiao Xiao couldn’t help but to cry out.
Proudly, little Yuteng said, “Every products you find here in the dimension are the best of the best!”
“Okay, you can stop bragging now. How much of these do we have? There are quite a bit of bugs outside!” said Cheng Xiao Xiao helplessly.
“I don’t kow how much we have, but I can always clone them, so technically we have an unlimited amount of supply!”
“That works. Hurry up and clone so we can take them to kill all the bugs. These bugs are way too scary. In a few days they would have eaten up all of Willows’ crops!”
“Okay, that’s an easy task!”
After she had little Yuteng started on working on the pesticides, Cheng Xiao Xiao exited the dimension. First thing she did was to send the sisters Yesu and Yecao away for other chores around the house as she started transporting the pesticides that little Yuteng created into the outside.
In the time of one incense, the courtyard was covered in pesticides. She turned to the direction of the guest quarter and called out, “Hey, Old Man Ying, can you come over!”
“Coming!”
He was there as soon as his voice has reached her. Looking at all the stuff that cluttered up the courtyard, he asked, “Miss, these are your pesticides?”
“Exactly. These are very powerful pesticides. Do not eat them. I won’t be able to bring you back after you’ve turned into powder!”
“That powerful?” Old Man Ying blinked and said, “Miss, are these from the inside?”
“Of course they are. Hurry up, transport them out and have the men sprinkle them on the bugs. Tell them to not eat them, preferably not even touch them, just to be on the safe side!”
“Ugh, okay!”
Old Man Ying was quite familiar with all the amazing items from the dimension so there was no doubts in his mind. Carefully he placed the pesticides into a dimension ring and took off immediately.
Cheng Xiao Xiao was worried that they didn’t have enough pesticides so she asked little Yuteng to keep going with the cloning. At the same time, she thought of something else, if they have these kind of bugs in Willows, wouldn’t they have it at other locations also?
Thinking of that, she summoned Yesu immediately and have her to fetch Zhou Jinjiang
Zhou Jinjiang had been travelling for three days and just got back. He had already heard about the bugs and was getting worried. When he heard that Cheng Xiao Xiao was looking for him, he headed over right away.
When he arrived, Cheng Xiao Xiao’s courtyard was covered in pesticides all over again. He asked immediately, “Xiao Xiao, these are the pesticides that you have produced?”
“Yes, Uncle Zhou. I would like you to make some arrangements to surveil around Qing’an Province and see if there are any other areas that also have infestation from these bugs. That way we will be able to handle them in time; otherwise, the peasants would not be able to harvest in fall.”
