Carry a fountain with you

Chapter 295
"Husband, is this the fruit of your hard work all afternoon?" Zhang Qian called out, pointing to the wooden bridge as soon as she walked back to the door.

"What's wrong……"

"It's too ugly! Let's tear it down." When she was drawing the picture, she felt that the bridge should be very beautiful when it was built. When she was in school, she wanted to come back early after school to see the real thing, but when she really saw it, Not at all.

"Hehe, why did you dismantle it? It's all done according to your design. I think it's pretty." Liu Junhao looked at his wife with a suppressed smile.She learns a lot of wisdom by eating a pit, and she will not be arrogant in the future.

"Really...then when someone asks you, can you just say that you designed the bridge?" Zhang Qian had an expression on her face that she couldn't be ashamed.

Seeing his wife's appearance, he could only nod his head and take the scapegoat down. Who would let it be his wife?

The next morning, Liu Junhao scrambled to cut thatch on the river beach to build a gazebo roof.Originally, according to Professor Zhao's idea, no matter what the roof should be used to face each other, so as to improve the grade.

However, Liu Junhao thinks it is more poetic to use thatch to build it. The ancient poem does not say, "I heard that beside the thatched hut in the old stream, a few new vines were planted in the spring breeze." Word.
The thatch along the banks of the river is usually not mowed at all, so it grows very thick. In less than half an hour, Liu Junhao mowed a cart full of it.

When he came back, Er Mazi just happened to resist the wood.A group of people squatted on the ground... Er Mazi's workmanship is good, the gaps between the purlins on the gazebo are even, and they look like keels, with every thread.The thatch is completely woven on the purlins, and the gazebo immediately shows a sense of simplicity.

Everyone erected the gazebo in the center of the bridge like building blocks, and then fixed it with nails.

Now look at this wooden bridge... Liu Junhao couldn't believe his eyes.God!The originally ugly things immediately came alive, and the gazebo was simply the finishing touch.

After the gazebo was built, Liu Junhao transplanted several morning glories from his own garden into small flower pots.Of course, with Shisuo as a cheat, he can guarantee that the flower will grow well.It is conceivable that the scene of "morning glory blooming on the bridge full of fragrance" may appear on this small bridge in a few days.

After finishing everything, he and Professor Zhao moved two chairs and sat in the gazebo.Not to mention... This gazebo is really no different from a natural air conditioner. With the shade of the trees above the head, the gurgling water under the feet, and the evaporated water vapor, the whole pavilion contains a refreshing coolness.In addition, the lotus leaves are swaying, the small fish are in groups, and a few water ducks are squawking under the bridge... It's really like poetry and calligraphy.

It's a pity that they didn't enjoy it for long, Liu Guangju called and told him to go to the Yantang to catch the fire.

"Uncle Guangju, do you want to catch that fire head?" Liu Junhao became interested when he heard it, and said that the most thrilling thing on May Day might be the fight between fire head and otter.At that time, someone in the village proposed to catch this thing, but there were very few responders, so the matter had to be let go.

It's only been a few days, why did something happen again?

"Yes, it's the fire head. Come here quickly. Is your harpoon still there? Bring it here by the way. You need to use it to catch the fire head."

"The harpoon was sold as scrap iron 800 years ago..." Liu Junhao's family used to have two harpoons, but they didn't use them for a long time and they rusted, so he finally sold them as scrap iron.

"You brat, you really don't feel bad about selling your grandfather. Why sell such a good thing? Come here quickly, and I'll help you find one for you." Liu Guangju sighed in his heart when he heard it.

"Uncle Guangju, it's useless to find one, I don't know how to use a harpoon at all," Liu Junhao said with a mournful face.When it comes to fishing, all the men in Liujiagou are masters, but the tools used by different ages are different.In the early decades, there were so many fish in the nearby water that it was unimaginable. Old man Liu once described that if he stood by the ditch and picked up a bucket of water, half a catty of crucian carp shells would be caught in it.Standing on the bank and looking into the ditch on a moonlit night, all the white flowers in it are small white fish, shining dazzlingly.However, this kind of small ones are generally not eaten by anyone. After catching them, they are just chopped and fed to ducks and chickens.

The fish that the villagers really ate were grass carp, silver carp, etc. weighing more than seven or eight catties. At that time, there was little food, and every time they cooked, they piled up a large piece and steamed it, and everyone felt sick after eating it.Because of this, most older people are used to using harpoons to catch fish.Especially Liu Wuye, he is a master among them.His unique skills of stabbing fish with a flying spear and catching turtles are even more miraculous, and he is well-known in ten miles and eight villages.

Later, in the 90s, with the increase in population and the extensive use of pesticides and fertilizers, the fish in the big rivers decreased rapidly.The middle-aged generation started fishing with nets, which is so convenient and quick that they only use harpoons when they encounter big fish.In the hands of young people, the harpoon is completely a thing of the past, and no one uses it anymore.

"There's nothing you can't do with a harpoon, just pick it up and poke it when you see the fire. Come here quickly, I'm waiting," Liu Guangju muttered, then hung up the phone.

"Is there a fire in the village?" The phone was very loud just now, and Professor Zhao could hear it clearly from the side.

"Well..." Liu Junhao nodded and said, "Let's not play this game anymore, let's go to the Yantang to catch the fire."

The two of them rushed to the edge of Dayan Pond, where no less than thirty people had already gathered.Except for a few tourists, the rest were all called by Liu Guangju to help.

Seeing them coming, people greeted them one after another, and Liu Junhao also learned the whole story from Er Mazi.It took less than half a month for the emotional fire to be discovered, and it has already aroused public anger.This thing not only eats fish, but also attacks white geese and ducks.It's not like I haven't lost ducks before, but not so often.In just a few days of hard work, a dozen of them were lost.This is not going to work, it probably won't take long, every family's geese and ducks will be fumbled.

Several companies with big losses discussed and planned to get rid of this unsafe factor.Of course, there is another layer of consideration, that is, summer is coming soon, and many people have to take a bath in the water, what if the fire suddenly goes crazy and attacks people.

As soon as they talked about this idea, Liu Guangju immediately nodded in agreement, and began to shout for people.

Hearing the end, Liu Junhao could only feel that the fire should be caught, it was too high-profile.If you say that you eat fish alone, it will definitely not attract people's attention.Just like my own fire head, if it is not in the frying stage, I will definitely not be able to catch it.

Fry production... He suddenly understood.The fire head is generally produced in this season.Could it be that the same is true of the fire head, which is why it is so rampant, madly attacking poultry in shallow water.

Thinking of this, Liu Junhao approached Liu Guangju and shouted: "Uncle Guangju, is the fire head in the seedling stage? Has anyone seen any fire head seedlings around it? If so, let's catch it with a fishhook."

"Yeah, why did you forget about this..." All the people around came to their senses. They were only thinking about catching fire, and they completely forgot to look for fish along the shore.The weather is not too hot now, if there is a fire, it must be in the shallow water.

Ever since, the people all dispersed.

"Found it, here it is!" Within 5 minutes, Liu Qiyong yelled loudly.

Everyone rushed over after hearing the sound, only to see a large black mass of small fish under the bent willow tree.They are all gray and black, and each of them is two fingers long.

"This is the fire head, why is it no different from other fish?" A tourist asked in a low voice at this time.

"Isn't the firehead a fish?" Liu Junhao replied funny.When this thing is small, it looks like other fish, but when it grows to the length of a chopstick, it will show its first hideous appearance.

"I'll try to see if it's the seedling of the big fire." Liu Guangju said and threw a brick at the middle of the fire.Huotou is quite domineering, especially in the seedling stage.Generally speaking, only one fire head can produce seedlings in a water area at the same time.Even if there is another fire head, it will be eaten by the larger fire head.However, the water area of ​​Liujiagou is too large, and there is no guarantee that there will be a second one.

"Boom" With a sound, those flames fled frantically.

"No movement?" Just when everyone was wondering, a dark voice faintly emerged from the water.

"Good guy, it really is" the people on the shore became completely noisy.

"Get out of the way, get out of the way, let me throw the hook..." While speaking, Liu Qiyong had already brought the fishing rod from home.A large ball of red rope was specially tied near the fishhook, which was used to lure the fire head.

He had just dropped the hook in the middle of the flames and it was not shaking yet.Suddenly there was a wave on the surface of the water, and the rope was straightened.

Liu Qiyong was caught off guard, and was pulled into the water with a plop, and the fishing rod was also dragged into the deep water.

Several people around hurriedly stretched out their hands and pulled Liu Qiyong to the shore. This guy's pants were mostly wet, and now he was dripping water.

"Why don't you hurry up?" Seeing Huotou fleeing towards the center of the Yantang with a fishing rod, several people around began to complain.

"Who knew it would respond so quickly?" Liu Qiyong was also quite aggrieved.That guy didn't follow the rules at all, and he hadn't announced the development yet, but it took the lead.

"What can we do? It's hard to get hooked once the fire head is startled." Several people on the shore were helpless for a while.

"Look, the fishing rod doesn't move, isn't the fire head gone?" At this moment, a tourist shouted loudly.

People around "that's decoupling" understand what's going on.Generally, if the big fish is not unhooked, it will keep pulling and not throwing it away.

As someone lifted the fishing rod to the shore with a big bamboo pole, everyone took a breath when they saw the hook, and the hook, which was thicker than a sewing needle, was bitten off abruptly.

"I bought this fishhook from Qihua, you brat, the quality of the fishhooks you sell is not up to standard." Now that no fish has been caught, Liu Guangju is blaming whoever caught him.

Liu Qihua was so wronged that he had nowhere to justify, even a golden hook would be bitten off for such a big firehead.What's more, Liu Qiyong didn't give money at all when he took the hook.

"Why don't you call Mr. Liu Wu, he has a way of catching fire." At this time, Liu Junhao suggested again.

"I don't think the old man will be recruited when he comes, and the gods can't do anything about the fire." Although Liu Guangju didn't believe that Liu Wuye could do anything, he still sent someone to the chicken farm to call.Now Wuye Liu eats and lives at the chicken farm, so he usually doesn't come to the village when he has nothing to do.

"You dare to use this fishhook to catch a big firehead. Are you kidding me? I've seen that firehead, and it weighs almost a hundred catties. You should use a pole hook to catch this kind of firehead..." As soon as Mr. Liu arrived at the Yantang, he A few startling words came.

"The shoulder pole hook...just the pole for us to drink water?" Several young people were startled when they heard this: This old man is just joking.There used to be a saying on the Internet that "the wheelbarrow and the shoulder pole are the fifth greatest inventions in ancient China." This thing is very simple to make. It is just two hooks attached to the bottom of the narrow bamboo board.It is quite labor-saving to pick things up with it, and it is quite labor-saving. It was often used in rural areas before.

But the shoulder pole hook is as thick as a finger, so it is unimaginable to use it to catch fire.

Everyone was looking forward to the miracle of Liu Wuye, but he said: "You are 20 years old, I will definitely show you a show, not now, only this old bone is left. The harpoon is not good, you people Who will do it? Even if you catch a fish, you will definitely let it run away. If you want to catch this fire, I will give you a trick, use a fishing net. With bait, you should be able to catch this thing..."

"Fishing the net, are you going to make such a big commotion?" Liu Guangju asked with some doubts.

The younger generation got excited when they heard that fishing nets were going to be used, but they hadn't seen fishing like this in seven or eight years.That's a big killer, also known as Yisaoguang.Larger fishing nets are 30 to [-] meters long and generally have very small meshes.After a trip in the river, fish, turtles, shrimps and crabs rarely run away, even newborn fry.

This is not the case with the fishing net in Liujiagou. On the contrary, the mesh is very large, and there are many pocket-like dimples in the middle of the net, and heavy lead blocks are used to land on the bottom.It is specially used to catch big fish, but it requires too many hands, so it is not used at all in normal times.

"I'm still afraid that fishing nets won't work. After all, it's been useless for almost ten years, and the network cables are probably all rotten." Liu Wuye explained, then turned his head and said, "Come here a few young people to help carry the nets. Guangju you can get two more." A falcon. I'll put some bait on the fire..."

The old man took over the command without ambiguity, and explained the matter clearly in a few words.

After a few people rushed to carry the fishing net to the edge of the pond, Liu Guangju also found someone to resist the eagle boat.Fearing that the young man would not last, he deliberately asked Liu Junhao to go down to test the water.

After unfolding the fishing net, Liu Wuye asked someone to check it carefully to see if there were any holes.Care must be taken when catching this large fish, as a small carelessness may cause it to escape.After the inspection, several people began to wear two well ropes as net strands.Four people standing on the shore grabbed the two corners of the fishing net, and another four people supported the eagle boat and slid into deep water to release the net.

When the preparations were ready, Mr. Liu Wu took out the special bait from the snakeskin bag.

At first, the old man did not throw the bait in the middle of the fishing net, but threw it randomly along the shore. After a while, a faint fishy smell began to spread in the water.
