Chapter 4: Distress
"I hope you'll listen to my advice......"
Trachoma, not a disease. The trachoma here is a deep hole sucked out by the sand washing boat when the sand washing boat pumps out the sediment from the bottom of the lake to wash the sand in the lake, and this deep hole is very deep, which is called trachoma. Trachoma has a suction force that will be sucked in when you get close. It's a bit difficult to get out of the tradhole again.
"Forget it, Li Kuan is gone, I don't know when a second person will come here. Is it twenty or thirty years?"
Holding his stomach and smiling bitterly: "I don't know if I will starve to death...... Let's go get some sleep and get up tomorrow and go fishing......"
The Taoist temple had nothing to eat, and looked at the only vegetable garden and a few lonely flowers, Zhang Daoran muttered: "Overnight, I hope to grow some food." ”
The sky was about to darken, Zhang Daoran came to the back of the Taoist temple, there is a spring here, there is a small pool of more than ten square meters. A small stream of water, about a foot wide, flows down the mountain. With this spring, the problem of who to eat is solved, the water in the pool is very clear, and the point is that this is a hot spring, and the water temperature has been kept at more than 20 degrees.
First took a sip of water, the water of the spring was very sweet, and he drank a full water indiscriminately, lying in the pool, Zhang Daoran was a little dazed.
"Do you really want to be a Taoist priest?"
Zhang Daoran was full of thoughts: "This is a modern society, I don't have an ID card, I don't have knowledge of this world, I don't have a diploma, even if I go out to work, I'm afraid no one wants to ......"
"If you are a Taoist, you will be a Taoist, and if you have the opportunity to go out, you will be a god stick and help others make money by divination. ”
At this moment, Zhang Daoran had no worries in his heart, and his eyes alone gave Zhang Daoran a lot of confidence.
took a bath, cleaned his only shabby robe, hung it in front of the door, and went into the room, Zhang Daoran fell asleep in a daze.
......
"Dad, what are you doing here? What are you doing when you go out fishing with a rope?"
What Zhang Daoran didn't know was that the next day when the sky was just dark, Li Kuan found a rope more than ten meters long, pulled his daughter-in-law, and tied one end of the rope to the boat and the other to his waist in the puzzled eyes of his daughter-in-law Hu Lan.
Seeing his daughter-in-law questioning, Li Kuan smiled: "For the sake of safety, for the sake of safety, for the sake of safety, ......"
I don't know why, Zhang Daoran's words made Li Kuan feel that he had to pay attention to it. Last night, Li Kuan thought about it for half the night, he would rather believe it than believe it, his life was at stake, and he had to be careful. If there is nothing to do, it is okay, it can only show that Zhang Daoran is a liar. If something really happened, this rope saved him, and Zhang Daoran was a capable person.
Whether the rope is useful or not, it doesn't hurt you. It's just that it's hard to explain this matter to Hu Lan.
"Safety?" Hu Lan sneered: "You are a famous water ghost here, there is no problem in holding your breath in the water for ten minutes and eight minutes, swimming in the water is not difficult, it is not difficult to swim for three miles and five miles, what danger can there be? It can't be that you are old and timid, it can't be that you were in Sanqingguan yesterday, what did the Taoist priest there say?"
Nodding, Li Kuan did not deny it: "Not bad......"
told his daughter-in-law about what he encountered yesterday, and Li Kuan sighed: "I'd rather believe it than believe it." Now that I am in my fifties, it is not easy for my son to work outside, and we can be safe at home, which is the best support for my son. ”
At the mention of his son, Hu Lan put away the smile on his face: "That kid, he hasn't been home for three years, right...... I don't know what's going on outside. Is it that I have found a daughter-in-law, and every time I call, I don't have a letter to him...... It's better to be careful in this way, Aunt Li San in the next village is a famous fairy girl, and she will crack it for you. ”
mentioned Aunt Li, Li Kuan, a simple fisherman, also showed a rare trace of respect on his face: "I hope this time is safe......"
The boat slowly rowed out, the couple cast their nets, and Li Kuan sat in the middle of the boat, not near the edge. Even if it was a water dragon, it was all made by his daughter-in-law herself, and Li Kuan just watched.
As the saying goes, relying on the mountains to eat the mountains and relying on the water to draft the water, as the people by the lake, the young people either go out to work, and those who stay also dry up fish ponds. Li Kuan's family also has its own water tank and raises a lot of fish. In the season when the cages are not yet harvested, fishermen basically go out of the lake every day, and the number of fish they can catch is an additional income.
Until the afternoon, the boat did not encounter any special circumstances, and Li Kuan did not encounter danger, so the vigilance in his heart gradually relaxed. When it was time for the boat to return to the sea, Li Kuan stood up from the boat and began to pull the net with his daughter-in-law Hu Lan.
"The master, it's very heavy, it seems that I have gained a lot ......"
Beginning to collect the net, Hu Lan pulled the fishing net and exclaimed.
The lake is wide, but there are not many fish in the lake, especially in recent years, they have to catch fish every day, and today is the first time that they are excited......
The two of them worked together and pulled the fishing net up, and Li Kuan's face was happy: "It's really a lot, at least a hundred catties......"
The fishing net was pulled up, the fishing net was opened, and the rare big fish jumped, Li Kuan smiled: "It can't be the heavy rain yesterday that made someone's fish box run out of the fish......
The water tank for fish in the lake, the lake water does not rise, but it is good. When it rains heavily, the lake swells, and the fish in the cages escape. There is not a single fish left in some fish boxes. Yesterday encountered that heavy rain, Li Kuan felt that today's harvest was definitely related to that heavy rain.
Hu Lan glanced at Li Kuan: "We don't care whose fish it is, it's ours now......"
Li Kuan just smiled and began to clean the fishing nets.
"Hey...... Uh......"
I was just about to clear the fishing nets, when suddenly, a water snake came out of the fish pile. The water snake is rarely large, measuring two meters and the thickness of the wrist. The water snake sprang out and went straight to Li Kuan.
Even if he grew up by the lake, Li Kuan has seen water snakes and knows that water snakes in freshwater lakes are not venomous, but the two-meter-long water snake, the first time he saw it, it was quite infiltrating. There are really not many people who are not afraid of snakes, especially big snakes. Hu Lan was stunned for a moment, and Li Kuan also hurriedly dodged, slipped under his feet, and fell into the water with a pop.
"Whew...... What about snakes?"
Stepping on the water, exposing his chest, Li Kuan spit out a mouthful of water and asked.
"It's ...... down"
Only then did Hu Lan react, where was there still a trace of water snakes on the boat at this time?
Li breathed a sigh of relief, and was just about to climb onto the boat, when he felt his ankles tighten, as if something was entangled, instinctively, he reached out to grab it, and his hand was cold and soft: "Water snake......"
Because he bent down to grab his ankles in the water, Li Kuan's upper body was already immersed in the water, and this mouth, a mouthful of water poured into his mouth and directly entered his lungs. Suddenly, a hot pain came from his lungs......
What's even more unfortunate is that I panicked and had fucking cramps in my hands and feet......
There was a wail in his heart, and Li Kuan felt that his body was sinking into the water at this moment. As an old fisherman, Li Kuan tried to straighten his body, but his hands and feet cramped, and there were bouts of pain, so he couldn't straighten his body at all......
In a panic, Li Kuan felt a burst of suction coming from under him, and his body was involuntarily sucked into a trachoma. Trachoma is very deep, very dark, and you can't see the bottom at all, Li Kuan was shocked in his heart: "Trachoma!"
When you enter trachoma, no matter how good the water is, you can't get up!
"That's right, the rope ......"
Li Kuan's mind flashed with a flash of inspiration, endured the pain of cramps, and shook the rope desperately.
On the lake, Hu Lan didn't care at first, but after three or five minutes, there was an anxious look on his face. Suddenly, I saw the rope tied to the boat shaking, and I reached out to pull it.
After a lot of effort, the unconscious Li Kuan was finally pulled up......
At this moment, Hu Lan's mind was like a thunderbolt from the sky: "Sanqingguan!"
