"What's going on? Tell me quickly!" Xue Mingyi said urgently.

Cheng Hao said: "The demonized locust has already opened up part of its spiritual intelligence, which can be seen from the method of sonic resonance. If one of them has more spiritual intelligence, or evolves into a demonic locust with an IQ no less than that of humans,

It’s not impossible…”

"What do you mean?"

"I suspect that desert locusts have been sneaking into China for some time. From the time they started in Pakistan a month ago to now, at least how long it has been... is difficult to estimate. And based on the tragedy here, we have to prepare for the worst... maybe

It has evolved into the insect king here!" Cheng Hao said.

"You mean... the desert locusts have a way of hiding themselves from others. They have sneaked all the way here and secretly evolved to eat people. With their gluttonous greed, they will eat every drop of blood without leaving any traces. And the tragedy here is

, just like the massacre in the country of Ba, was it done because of the desire to evolve the insect king?" Xue Mingyi said.

Cheng Hao nodded and said, "Of course, this is just my guess."

Xue Mingyi directly took out his mobile phone, called the Ministry of Information, and began to investigate the missing persons in the past month.

Then he squatted on the ground and rubbed his face fiercely, and said with a bitter smile: "I have to admit, your boy's insight is really strong... If my chief of staff could be less conceited, so many people would not have died.

."

Cheng Hao smiled and shook his head and said: "The locust plague is a natural phenomenon, and we humans, with a population of more than seven billion, naturally bear the brunt. Their killings also serve as a wake-up call for each of us... In the face of every disaster, there are always people who have to pay.

Sacrifice...so that more people can live!

Okay, I'll go check around and see if I can find any clues."

Xue Mingyi smiled bitterly and waved him forward.

After Cheng Hao ducked out of the magic circle, he looked at the sun that was setting in the west, flying towards the north like the wind.

Within a moment, Cheng Hao was already standing on a raised platform in the wild eighteen kilometers away. Looking around, he saw a patch of withered yellow leaves and a forest in the distance that had lost all its leaves.

Ran Min appeared next to Cheng Hao. The man who was usually as powerful and domineering as steel could not help but have red eyes here. He bent over and squatted down, picked up a handful of soil with both hands, buried his face in it, and sucked the soil deeply.

"aromatic"!

Cheng Hao said: "King of Heaven, is this the place where you will ascend the throne and proclaim yourself emperor?"

Ran Min raised his head, put the piece of soil into the storage instrument, and said: "Yes, it was here that I set up the only flag of the Han people in the north - the Wei Dynasty!

Yes, it’s right here... I’ve already felt the ghost king’s power that that guy Xiang Kunlun said is comparable to the power of a god!”

Cheng Hao said: "Let's get started, I'm very pressed for time."

Ran Min slapped Cheng Hao on the back of the head fiercely and cursed: "Are you fucking stupid? I didn't know I was an undead now... It's broad daylight, or the afternoon when the Yang energy is at its strongest. Why, you want me to die early?"

?”

After Cheng Hao was beaten and staggered, Zheng Hao became angry: You can't just rely on your seniority and strong force to beat you and scold you when you want! But then he lost his temper after being scolded, and he really forgot this.

…

He rubbed the back of his head and said, "Then what should we do now?"

Ran Min said: "Go back and come back at midnight."

Cheng Hao was stunned and said: "Don't you need to make some preparations? For example, draw some array diagram, build a seven-star platform, and put some flags around it?"

Ran Min said angrily: "You're just filming a movie, there's no need. Let's go back. The sun is too hot."

"Then why were you so anxious to ask me to come over just now? You were out of your mind."

Cheng Hao muttered.

Ran Min's old face suddenly became a little confused. In fact, he himself had forgotten that he was an undead...then he opened his eyes as big as copper bells and shouted: "Don't you know where to check beforehand? What if you run the wrong way at night and you are delayed?"

What should we do if we get down to business!"

Cheng Hao rolled his eyes at him after being yelled at, and was too lazy to pay attention to him. You can sense where your destiny was originally, how could you run the wrong way... You are just sick! Do people with high martial arts have loud voices?

Regardless of Ran Min who was still yelling behind him, he jumped back and Ran Min stopped talking. Don't tell me, it doesn't matter whether things are done right or not. If you yell at him twice, you will overwhelm him with your momentum.

Then he looked around again, turned into a wisp of smoke and chased Cheng Hao away.

After wandering around the small village where he was killed in Anyan City for a few times, he returned to the small village.

Xue Mingyi's face looked a little strange at the moment. Was he happy or worried?

When Cheng Hao came back, he handed him the spiritual letter in his hand.

Cheng Hao took it and took a look. It turned out that the Information Department of Jizhou Division had completed the screening. There were more than a hundred murders and disappearances in the entire state, but they were basically determined to be committed by humans. In other words, Cheng Hao's guess just now

It is inconsistent with the facts and is wrong.

Cheng Hao was also dumbfounded and asked hurriedly: "What about Xinjiang and Inner Mongolia? Are they there?"

Xue Mingyi shook his head and said: "No, the murder and disappearance cases are basically the same as in previous years. Moreover, I also specifically called other states, and they have not found any trace of desert locusts there. It seems that the demon locusts did not evolve to eat humans in China.

."

Cheng Hao frowned and couldn't figure out the context after thinking for a moment: If the desert migratory locust didn't evolve to eat people in China, but after evolving in Pakistan, it flew thousands of miles to China, plus the monster locust is so big

, there are so many of them, it’s impossible not to be discovered.

If the smaller ones were transferred in batches, they might not be discovered, but they would evolve to eat people... but no one was found missing or dead, except for this one that happened early this morning.

But the monster locusts seen from the surveillance are already as big as three or four people... This has a different explanation...

Cheng Hao scratched his hair in distress. Did this locust evolve by drinking air?

Wait, is it okay to drink air...eat people...eat living people...eat dead people?

Cheng Hao immediately told Xue Mingyi about this absurd idea, and even he was shocked. Could locusts even eat this?

The two of them widened their eyes and stared at each other for a long time. Xue Mingyi said: "You really dare to think! Let's do this. I will leave this investigation task to you. If there is any situation, report it to me immediately. Give me your mobile phone

Give me."

Cheng Hao's expression froze, and he handed over the phone with a sneer and said: "This is not good... I am just an outsider, and this is your Jizhou Division's territory... Hey, hey, don't leave!"

After Xue Mingyi saved his number, he gave it to Cheng Hao, then stood up and left. Cheng Hao couldn't help but be speechless. His mind was full of all kinds of fantastic ideas!

Hey, don’t you have a chance to do your own thing tonight? Hehe!

Cheng Hao immediately picked up his cell phone and ran out.

Chinese people generally believe that after death, people should be buried in peace. Therefore, in addition to cremation in cities, most rural people still choose burial.

So Cheng Hao could only start from the random graves in the countryside, apologizing to the owners of the tombs one by one, and kept saying: "I'm sorry, everyone, I didn't mean to disturb you. The locust plague this time is really weird, so I had to come."

Let’s investigate the valuable land, don’t blame me, don’t blame me…”

So I used my spiritual power to look through the graves to see if there were any holes dug by locusts, and then gnawed the corpses clean...

I touched the tip of the moon and traveled to several places. Once I was almost accused of being a tomb robber and had the lovely villagers chase me away with a shovel... Fortunately, I found no sign of locusts. I breathed a sigh of relief.

Although I didn't eat at night, it's strange that I have an appetite after looking at the corpse for such a long time.

In the night, fly to the place where you have been during the day.

At this time, the mobile phone in his pocket vibrated. He took it out and saw that it was a text message from Xia Ling reporting that he was safe and asking how he was doing.

Cheng Hao saw that it was still early, so he landed on a maple tree with blood-red leaves in a mountain forest. He leaned on the trunk and talked on the phone with Xia Ling. He should relax when he needed to.

Xia Ling and the others advanced dozens of kilometers today and eliminated six swarms of locusts with a size of more than 100,000. Moreover, her martial arts and combat skills became more and more proficient...

Suddenly, Cheng Hao heard a rustling sound. At first he thought it was the sound of leaves blowing in the wind, but the sound became louder and louder. Cheng Hao realized something was wrong, so he quickly ended the call, quickly sent a text message saying something was wrong, and held his breath.

, as motionless as a statue.

The rustling sound is accompanied by a crackling sound!

This is...the sound of locusts flapping their wings!

Fortunately, Cheng Hao was wearing smart clothes and isolated himself from his popularity, so he could look into the distance without blinking.

The sound got louder and louder, and got closer and closer. Finally, a desert locust the size of a red pinky finger jumped onto the maple leaf in front of Cheng Hao, and started to devour it.

Cheng Hao can guarantee that he has never watched the whole process of animals eating, chewing, and swallowing so closely like now.

I don’t know if he was dazzled by the sight, but Cheng Hao always felt that after eating the maple leaves, the red color on the locusts became more and more brilliant!

Wait, such a small locust is red?

One after another, the locusts gnawed at the maple leaves. In less than two hours, they had eaten one-third of the leaves in the maple forest!

Then they stopped gnawing and returned one after another close to the ground. At this time, the red color on their bodies slowly faded and turned into the black of the dark night!

Cheng Hao's pupils suddenly widened, "Hey, locusts can change color!" This seems to make sense. Desert migratory locusts come to China by constantly changing colors and confusing people's vision.

Then why not eat the maple leaves cleanly? Cheng Hao picked a handful of maple leaves and collected them. Since locusts eat these, it might be useful.

Then he followed a swarm of black locusts flying close to the ground, flying close to the ground, and disappeared into a small hidden cave on the top of an inconspicuous mountain.

Cheng Hao followed them here and watched them fly in from the hole wide enough for one person. Sure enough, they were hiding underground.

He looked at the time and saw that it was past ten o'clock, still two hours before midnight. It might still be time to go in and take a look, so Cheng Hao waited for the locusts to fly in one by one, and then he leaned in and got in.

It was pitch dark inside. Cheng Hao focused his spiritual power on his eyes and could see in the dark.

The walls of the cave were wet and sticky, like green locust blood, and had a strange smell.

Cheng Hao had a flash of suspicion and crawled inside. The cave was dug in a winding and downward direction for about half an hour. Cheng Hao estimated that it was two to three hundred meters underground at this time. It was dug really deep.

Cheng Hao put his ear against the wall of the cave, and a clear crunching sound came. He finally breathed a sigh of relief. It was not far away... Huh? Why did it come from behind?

Could there be another group flying over?

Cheng Hao didn't have time to think about it. He carefully controlled his spiritual power to dig out a space on the cave wall. He put the excess mud and rocks into the storage artifact. After he got in, he restored the original piece of the cave wall to its original position.
Chapter completed!
