938 Eat It First

Move forward! Jiang Ming ordered.

How is this possible? The boss could not help but walk forward. He panicked.

What? Zhu Asi asked in disbelief. Then can I order this boss around too?

No, only I can give orders. Lets go to that field first. The most important thing now is to solve the problem there.

Then, Jiang Ming glanced at the baby and the pregnant woman.

Are you guys still going? If you dont want to go, then go back. Ill look for it myself first.

The baby thought for a moment and then said firmly, No, I want to go with you. Its not easy to find that field. The less time we spend searching, the more time we can save the people.

The boss could not help but sigh. If you think like this now, who will be grateful to you? You will also lose your life in the future.

Why do you always think that we will kill you? If I wanted to kill you, I could do it right now.

Jiang Ming was speechless. He did not say anything more to the boss and brought the baby and the pregnant woman to the field.

At this moment, the locusts were all resting together in the field.

Zhu Asi was shocked. This is the first time Ive seen so many locusts. Who lured them here?

The locusts can still be dealt with.

Jiang Ming was very calm as he pondered in his heart.

These locusts definitely could not be driven away or eliminated. Even if they were driven away or eliminated, the food crisis of these poor people would still not be solved.

The water was easy to obtain, but the food was hard to obtain.

The boss mocked Jiang Ming at the side. Your Majesty. How can you save the kingdom? How can you solve the problem of food? These locusts are not to be trifled with. No matter how much food there is, they will eat it up.

The last sentence gave Jiang Ming a reminder.

Jiang Ming thought for a moment.

Locusts ate food, so they could eat locusts too. These locusts were also delicious to eat.

Help me catch these locusts, he said to Zhu Asi.

Then, he turned around and looked around. He walked to the left and took a bag.

He opened the bag and covered it with a layer of spiritual energy. He said to Zhu Asi, You just need to put the locusts inside. This spiritual energy will block the locusts. I didnt expect that I would be able to catch locusts one day.

Zhu Asi held his arm and went straight ahead before Jiang Ming could rush over.

His spiritual energy circled around the locusts. After a while, he caught many locusts.

Jiang Ming wasnt willing to be outdone and instructed the boss to follow him.

The three of them spent about an hour catching all the locusts.

The boss could not help but pant. He said helplessly, If you didnt instruct me, I wouldnt have caught these locusts. Im exhausted.

These locusts can help the people.

Jiang Ming smiled mysteriously.

How can these locusts help the civilians? What nonsense are you talking about? Do you want us to eat these things?

The boss could not help but twitch his lips. He did not believe what Jiang Ming said at all.

However, Jiang Mings eyes lit up. Youre right, he said. These locusts are edible.

Are you crazy? These things are poisonous. Are you going to poison these poor people to death? Youre no different from the old king.

The boss became aggressive, his eyes cold.

You havent eaten them before, Zhu Asi retorted. How would you know? You only care about yourself!

Then, he looked at Jiang Ming and said, Ning Caichen, why dont you use this guy as your first test subject? I think hes quite suitable to be a test subject.

Hey, how can you do this? Im a commoner. You should be the ones to try it yourself.

The boss was unhappy, and his subordinates suddenly appeared in front of everyone, bringing a group of commoners with them.

Let go of our boss! the subordinates shouted angrily. Otherwise, well make you pay with your lives!

Thats right, the commoners chimed in. Youre just our king. We have no love for you.

You should love us commoners, not treat us like this.

Jiang Ming sighed. Since you think Im lying, Ill try to show you.

He picked up a locust.

The locusts were still alive and jumping around randomly.

The poor people thought that Jiang Ming was going to throw the locusts in front of them. They quickly stepped back and said with panic in their eyes, Are you going to attack us with locusts?

Jiang Ming raised his hand and attracted the firewood over. He used the firewood to make a simple device.

He snapped his fingers again and ignited the match.

The flames burned fiercely. Jiang Ming placed a thin wooden branch and inserted the locusts into the wooden branch one by one.

Those locusts were originally still alive and kicking, but they were immediately stabbed to death.

Zhu Asi sat at the side.

He had never eaten locusts before, so he could not help but feel a little uncomfortable.

Jiang Ming placed the branch on the match.

Not long after, it immediately emitted a strong fragrance.

Zhu Asi could not help but get excited.

I cant help but want to try it first. I dont think its poisonous.

I think we should let the boss test the poison first.

Jiang Ming deliberately made fun of his boss. He took a step forward and motioned for his boss to come over and eat.

Thats impossible, the boss said with his mouth tightly shut. I would rather die than eat it.

Jiang Ming nodded unhurriedly and forcefully opened the bosss mouth.

The boss opened his mouth and smiled bitterly in his heart, When you kill me?

Then, he faced death calmly.

Forget it. He was about to die now. It was useless whether he released this spiritual energy or not.

Then, his expression changed again.

Why was he about to die?

The subordinate rushed forward with a dark look in his eyes. He rushed forward to s.n.a.t.c.h the locust, but he was stopped by Jiang Ming.

Today, your boss must eat this locust for me.

As he spoke, he placed the locust in front of the boss.

The boss followed Jiang Mings instructions and bit down, then swallowed.

The taste of locusts spread in his mouth.

Zhu Asi watched eagerly from the side.

If he did not have any problems eating it, he would like to try it too.

This deliciousness made the boss take a few more bites.

He was surprised.

How could these locusts be so delicious?

However, at this time, a sallow and emaciated old man suddenly appeared in front of Jiang Ming.
