Chapter 036, Dragon Bridge Stone Carving
The Maxi River is only two kilometers away from my grandfather's house, and I walk around Lion Rock to the other side, but in fact, I will go down the slope to the river. The Shuanglong Bridge is a stone bridge more than ten meters wide that spans the Maxi River.
Ye Ziqi walked out of the yard and started the live broadcast, he was holding a straight shooting rod in his hand, and there were only a few people in the live broadcast room for the time being, so he didn't speak, but just lit up the fishing rod, I believe that familiar viewers should know what he is going to do.
"Wow, is the anchor finally going to rest today? After learning bamboo weaving for five or six days in a row, it's time to relax. ”
"The visual anchor is going to fish today, is our live broadcast room going to be changed to a wild fishing live broadcast room or an outdoor activity live broadcast room?"
"Anchor fishing is also work, fishing live broadcast is not wrong, let's bet to see how many fish the anchor can catch today, and if you lose, you will give the anchor a gift. ”
As Ye Zi came to the Maxi River, the number of spectators gradually increased, and the previous message was also read by others, and everyone knew that Ye Zi was going to fish today.
"Ladies and gentlemen, today, we are going to fish in a small river nearby. That's right, it's the river in front of me, and its name is Maxi River, which is one of the five rivers in our L county.
The bridge we are looking at is called Shuanglong Bridge, although it is a very common bridge name, but this bridge is very old, and I heard my grandfather say that it has a history of hundreds of years.
Well, the reason why we came to fish today is because my grandfather said that he used to come to fish for that kind of small crucian carp, which was the size of two or three fingers, and it was used for frying after fishing, which was a good dish to accompany wine.
But my grandfather has not come to fish for more than ten years because of his age and eyesight, and when we were drinking last night, my grandfather proposed to come fishing today, so we accompanied him.
You see that there are no here, next to those trees, and on the edge of the bamboo forest, there are a few places where the ground has been trampled very smooth, and there must be a lot of people who come to fish.
Big brother, sprinkle some nests in these places first, and then let's separate and fish. Grandpa, there is a stone to sit on, you can fish here, I am on your left, and you are on your grandfather's left. ”
While speaking, Ye Ziqi and his party came to the Maxi River, and found that there were several positions on the river that were left by anglers who had been fishing for a long time, and there was no one at this time, so they chose three close positions.
In the middle of the position, there happens to be a big bluestone, and the leaves let my grandfather fish here, just enough to sit down and fish, and he and his eldest brother are adjacent to each other on both sides of my grandfather, after all, my grandfather is old and the two brothers have to take care of him.
Subsequently, everyone began to throw off the fishing rod smoothly and began to wait for the fish to take the bait, and the sister-in-law took Junjie to watch next to the eldest brother, Junjie was very novel, and it was the first time he followed the adults to the river to fish.
"Fish, fish, small fish. Junjie stared at the river carefully, and suddenly pointed to the river and said.
"Well, there are so many small fish in the river, every day I have to catch them with my father and my father and cook them for Junjie to drink. So Junjie should obediently not make trouble, and don't scare the little fish away. Liu Xiaohui whispered to Junjie.
"Shhhh Junjie cutely put a finger to his mouth and gently shhh
"Junjie, go and my mother will show you the Dragon Bridge, there are dragons on it. After a while, we looked back and caught a fish. In order not to affect the fishing of the three of them, Liu Xiaohui coaxed Junjie to take him to a stone slab dozens of meters away, and on the edge of the two bridge piers in the middle, there was a dragon head stone carving on each side.
There are a lot of such Longqiao L counties, and there is a river called Longxi River in Xingfu Village, not too far from Ye Ziqi's home, there is also a dragon bridge, called Longdeng Bridge, they went to school in the village when they were young, and they had to run around from Longdeng Bridge every day.
The leaf period did not have much impact on Longqiao, and he did not study it, he only knew that there were many Longqiao in his hometown, but he did not know how many there were.
Soon, there was a reaction in front of my grandfather, although his movements were not too sharp, but he still saw that the bright buoy was dragged down, and immediately lifted the fishing rod violently, and a small fish with a white luster was instantly pulled up, about the size of three fingers.
"Grandpa, Jiang is still an old spicy, you opened so soon. Ye Yongqiang said with a smile, and immediately came over to help remove the small crucian carp and put it into the bucket next to him.
"There are a lot of fish in this section, so it's easier to catch. Grandpa said with a smile, sure enough, what he said was true, and then Ye Ziqi and eldest brother Ye Yongqiang caught fish one after another.
However, the eldest brother Ye Yongqiang caught a small white strip, which was more than two fingers wide, but it was flat and long, two crucian carp long, and the scales on his body were also very fine, and the whole body was silvery-white.
And in the leaf period, he caught a yellow spicy dice, and it was not small, there were three or four taels, he smiled and said: "This yellow spicy dice can cook soup for Junjie at noon, and now Junjie's food has fallen." ”
"Look, I've caught a lot of fish. This fish is boiled for Junjie to eat at noon. After a while, when Liu Xiaohui came back with Junjie, there were already seven or eight fish in the bucket, most of them were small crucian carp, she teased Junjie and said.
"Fish, a lot of fish, eat fish. Junjie clapped his palms happily and said.
Subsequently, the three of them kept pulling up one fish after another, and soon there were twenty or thirty, although those small crucian carp were not big, but there was also a big bowl, and there were three yellow and spicy dices, and seven or eight small white strips.
"Today's harvest is good, let's take a look at the fish in the bucket, these small crucian carp and small white strips are used to fry and drink at noon, and these yellow and spicy dices are used to cook soup for Junjie." Ye Ziqi said to the audience in the live broadcast room.
"...... Uproar"
At this moment, my grandfather suddenly pulled the fishing rod, and a huge sound suddenly sounded in the river, and he actually caught a big fish, Ye Ziqi didn't react, and the eldest brother Ye Yongqiang had already dropped the fishing rod and ran to his grandfather to help him pull it.
"This fish is not small, and slowly pull it to the side of the dragon bridge, and there is a washing place next to it, so you can catch it. Grandpa said excitedly to the two.
Ye Yongqiang pulled the fishing rod and slowly moved to the side of the dragon bridge, Ye Ziqi also followed, according to what his grandfather said, sure enough, at the head of the bridge, in a shallow water area for washing clothes, the fish was dragged over and caught.
Ye Ziqi grabbed a silver carp weighing three or four catties, picked it up, and looked up to see the dragon carving next to it, lifelike, and the dragon still had a round stone in its mouth, which made him suddenly wonder how it was put in.
"Grandpa, I saw a stone bead in the dragon's mouth, how did you put it in?" When he put the fish in the bucket, Ye Ziqi asked his grandfather who came over, despite being splashed with water.
"I heard the elders say that the stone of the dragon's head is a whole piece, and when the dragon's head is carved, it is carved directly in its mouth, not put it in the back. Grandpa's answer shocked Ye Ziqi very much, did the ancient carver have such superb skills?
