The rest of the world [farming]

After the person leaves, the rest of the people continue to live as usual.Ao Mu is a full-time village doctor, and also sells some by-products to the government part-time.Such as poultry eggs, livestock eggs, and milk.

In addition to some precious accidents such as daily necessities, the rest are thermal weapons and livestock feed, which are relatively lacking in Ao Mu's family.

Ao Mu also considerately changed some teaching materials for the children, including books and videos.When Ao Mu and Yang Wu are free, they will teach Wu Lili a little knowledge.After all, both of them have master's degree, maybe they are not qualified teachers, but it is not difficult for him to understand some common sense.

Fast forward to August.It stands to reason that this should be the hottest time of the year.

But the snow outside had just melted away at this time, and the temperature was only about thirteen degrees above zero.It's still cold.

Even so, Ao Mu also found something different.

There seems to be a little too many bugs in the horned gel.

Other places are fine.When a group of cockroaches appeared in the greenhouse for no reason.Even though chickens, ducks and quails are eager to chase after this rare delicacy, Ao Mu still feels his scalp numb.

"Why are there so many old Zhangs?" Ao Zhen slapped two of them to death with the soles of her shoes, then threw them into the chicken coop and watched the chickens eat.

Lao Zhang is a common name for cockroaches in the north.

"It should have crawled over from the ground." Ao Mu said, "Yang Wu and I will spray the medicine around here later. Let's spray all the indoors, basement and cellar of our house."

Fortunately, it is a powerful creature called Xiaoqiang.Survival even in such an extreme environment outside.Moreover, it is really tenacious to be able to reproduce such a large number.

I don't know what they ate to survive.

"Our family has it, and the village must have it." Ao Zhen suggested, "Our family seems to have a lot of insect repellents. When the oxygen is delivered tomorrow morning, let them help deliver some medicines to everyone."

Ao Muxian nodded, then shook his head and said: "Only use powdered medicine. We don't have many powders, most of them are sprays. It's okay for outdoor use, but it must be ventilated if used indoors. There is no such ventilation condition now."

"Then we can only trouble those young men to take medicine and spray around the house." Ao Zhen said, "It stands to reason that we can persist for a few days. We have it here, and the government must also have it. The medicine should be sent .”

Ao Mu nodded.Calling Yang Wu, the two of them put on protective clothing and went out to sprinkle medicine around the house, and then sprinkled medicine powder inside and outside the house.Ao Mu's house is newly built, so it can be said to be as solid as a rock.So except for a part of the greenhouse that will go in.Basically get rid of too much to worry about.

Others didn't have such good luck.

The next day, Ao Mu asked the oxygen delivery person to help distribute a small packet of medicine to each household.There are not many medicines, so they can only be sprinkled around the kang and next to the stove.These two places also tend to be the hardest hit areas for cockroaches.

In fact, Ao Mu had rarely seen cockroaches before.The only two times I can remember are in the dormitories of high school and university.The village has not seen this thing for many years.

It has been reported to the army, and the army is also making emergency arrangements.

These cockroaches are much bigger than before.However, compared with the cockroaches in the south, it is not enough to see.Ao Mu was afraid that these cockroaches would evolve too fast.The extreme environment outside can survive. I am afraid that the cockroaches will develop resistance to the drug soon after the drug is sprayed, and the drug will not kill the cockroaches, but will become the best feed for the cockroaches.

Of course, this kind of thing is just Ao Mu's guess.

On the third day after the cockroaches were found.Zhang Linya saw a pile of woodworms in the corner of the basement again.Wood bugs are common in rural areas.However, hundreds of woodworms appeared together, and this scalp-numbing density made people look very uncomfortable.

Ao Mu directly found a piece of sticky mouse paste, and lightly stuck it to the wall a few times, and all the woodworms in the nest were stuck to death.Then Ao Mu threw these into the livestock excrement, and threw them outside when he went out.The whole family was then put on high alert.Sprinkle pesticides, kill bugs manually when you see them, and eradicate them immediately when you see eggs.Chicken, duck and quail are all free-range in the greenhouse.Immediately eliminate any insects that invade.

This move also allowed the little ones to have enough protein intake, and even the number of eggs laid each day increased significantly.

Fortunately, the protection inside the building was strict enough. After two nests of woodworms and a few eggs were found, they were completely extinct in the house.But the villagers were not so lucky.

Almost every day, notes were sent, saying that I was bitten by cockroaches and wood bugs, had slight allergies, itchy skin, and needed ointment.

Aomu Clinic doesn't have a lot of ointments in stock, and it's impossible for every household to share a tube.

It was Zhang Linya who came up with a whim and learned what she had learned in the video before.Cut the straw into sections, seal one end with a hair straightener honey, and then inject the ointment from the other end.Then seal it up.Like this, one ointment can be divided into many subpackages.After each household divides it into one or two packs, Ao Mu can save some money here.You can keep it for other people when they don’t have enough.

Under such circumstances, the villagers naturally complained a lot, and some even asked Ao Mu if the survival base still recruited people.They also want to move if they can guarantee they can deal with the bugs.

Forget about poisonous gas, this bug is too much to suffer.

Ao Mu didn't answer this question. Fortunately, a week after the insects flooded, the water delivery team came again and brought the insecticide team.

This time, it was still spreading medicine all over the village, and then each household distributed medicine powder and ointment separately.

Ao Mu deliberately put a lot more here.The leader of the team is still comforting Ao Mu: "Don't worry about this. The scientists have already invested in research. There have been related studies before. There are poisons that can deal with a certain gene alone. Just sprinkle a little poison, this poison It will become an existence similar to an infectious disease. And it will only infect specific genes. Only cockroaches will die if they eat it.

The technology in this area has been very mature before.It's just that one has not been approved for listing.Now just take it out again, rearrange the data and put it into use.Then there's mass production.It's only a month away from everyone being able to use it! "

Hearing this, Ao Mu's first reaction was not excitement.

"Poison for a specific gene? Isn't this a genetic weapon?" If there is a poison that is only effective for a specific gene in this world.Then it is simply the most terrifying biochemical weapon in the world.

In the past, there were related rumors on the Internet, saying that a certain country had mastered such a terrifying weapon.It's just that most of them are exaggerated.

The team leader saw that Ao Mu's thoughts were so active, and comforted him: "Don't worry, this kind of experiment is highly confidential. And because we have research and development in this area, we also have corresponding coping strategies. We don't know how to use it, and we can't use it." Don't be afraid of being used by others."

Cockroaches are an animal, except for a very few animal protectionists in the world.There is no one who does not want them extinct.

Moreover, if they are extinct, they will not have much impact on this world.They are garbage eaters.But earthworms are also very powerful in eating garbage.

After being fed such a reassuring pill, Ao Mu can also feel relieved.

My family was basically fine, and the villagers finally had a chance to breathe under the siege of the insects because of the arrival of the pest killing team.

Ao Mu was afraid that the cockroaches would infect some diseases again, so he distributed leaflets to every household, telling them that if they had any headaches, fever, or discomfort, they would pass on the news at any time, and someone would take them to the clinic for examination.

In the end, there are two allergies that are a bit serious. After I came to Aomu to get a bottle, I haven't found any serious ones yet.

Yang Wu raised two cockroaches in the glass bottle, and when he was free, he would put some food in it to feed.

Ao Mu looked disgusted, but it was not easy to throw the jar behind Yang Wu's back.

"What a good way to raise it." All Ao Mu could do was put the cockroach far away on the window sill.At least not while sleeping.

"It's strange. I've never seen a cockroach like this before." Yang Wu laughed.

"Have you ever seen such a big one?" Ao Mu raised his eyebrows.

"Wrong, I've never seen such a small one." Yang Wu chuckled, "This cockroach looks like a baby cockroach, let me see if it can grow up. I went abroad and saw the biggest one in an animal museum. The cockroaches are as big as my palm. That’s pretty good.”

Ao Mu twitched the corners of his lips without leaving any trace: "Well, I can tear off a large piece of meat with just one bite."

Yang Wu only felt a chill, and trembled, "Don't talk about it! If you really bite me, why don't you bandage it up?"

Ao Mu looked at the two vigorous cockroaches crawling around in the jar: "You are not afraid of them laying eggs in the jar."

"Impossible, don't these two belong to the mother?" Yang Wu said, "Look at the tail, they both belong to the mother."

This really made Ao Mu look at him with admiration: "You still know the father and mother?"

"I don't know anything." Yang Wu raised his nose proudly.

Ao Mu smiled and shook his head, ignoring it.

No one thought that Yang Wu was just a child with a disposition to play, but after only a few days, he discovered that something was wrong.

"Brother Mu! Come and have a look! Have these two cockroaches laid eggs?"

"Your cockroaches can lay eggs." Ao Mu only thought that Yang Wu was talking nonsense.

"No, I'm talking about laying eggs. Come here and have a look. Look at these little white dots. Isn't it just eggs? There's also a pod, with little white dots underneath."

Ao Mu probed over to take a closer look, and felt a shiver.

Everyone has a bit of trypophobia, especially when they know that the egg is a cockroach egg.

"Didn't you say that both of them belonged to mothers?"

"So you see these two pods? Probably both are laying eggs."

Ao Mu was silent for a while, and asked, "Then do you know how long it takes for them to hatch after laying eggs?"
