In the afternoon of the next day, Professor Wu and his assistant from the Provincial Academy of Agricultural Sciences came, and the driver drove them.

When they arrived at the place, the driver hurriedly opened the car door, helped the old professor down with his assistant, and asked repeatedly: "Old Wu, don't you care? This road condition is not very good, it is far away, and it is bumpy......

Professor Wu was a little excited, waved his hand, did not let the young people help him, and said with a smile: "This is good, most of the roads are cement, and the conditions are much better than before." Besides, we're just here for a trip, and the people who live here still have to walk like this every day!"

The air in the mountain village is good, Wu Lao took a deep breath, shook his spirit, and said, "Give Mr. Zhou a call, please let him show us the way." ”

The assistant hurriedly took out his mobile phone, found Zhou Heng's phone, and pulled it out.

Zhou Heng was studying some questions about the future development direction at home, and when he received a call, he heard that Professor Wu had arrived at the entrance of the village, and immediately felt that this driver could do it, so he didn't call to ask for directions!

When he came to the intersection, he saw a slightly chubby old man with silver hair but still in good spirits, a young woman, and a middle-aged man.

Professor Wu briefly introduced to him that the young woman was his assistant and was currently in graduate school, and the man was the driver.

Zhou Heng saw that their trip was hard, and if they drove directly from the provincial capital, even if the road was smooth, it would take more than four hours, and it would be hard to come all the way.

So he asked them, "Sir, do you want to rest before you go and see?"

Without waiting for the old professor to answer, the driver rushed to say, "Then thank you, Mr. Zhou, we Wu Lao really need to take a rest first, it's quite disturbing." ”

Otherwise, Wu Lao would definitely refuse to rest first, and he would not trouble people.

But he is old and the weather is hot, so he is not suitable for continuous high-intensity work, so he needs to take at least a little rest in the middle.

No, Wu Lao was already reprimanding him: "Xiao Chen, look at you, you will trouble people when you get to the place." How embarrassing is that? Just ask him to take us to the lake. ”

The driver apologized to Zhou Heng again and again, but he did not mean to change his words.

Zhou Heng waved his hand and smiled, and said, "It's okay, just go to our house to rest for a while, drink saliva, and sit down." Anyway, the fish is there and won't run. ”

After pushing for a while, the group of three followed Zhou Heng back.

At this time, Zhou Heng's parents went to the field to thresh old branches for cotton, and when they were not at home, Zhou Heng went to pour some water for the three of them, and went to pick bunches of grapes to wash and serve them to them.

He felt that the pears would be almost ready to eat in two days.

Well, I have time to pick it up and taste it.

Professor Wu tasted the grapes, and immediately his tongue was full of praise, "These grapes grow well! ”

Zhou Heng smiled and said, "It's okay, there was less rain in the first half of this year, so the concentration of sugar is not diluted, and it will be sweeter." ”

The assistant and the driver ate with relish, but Professor Wu was thinking, what can be done with the crops due to the lack of rain in the countryside?

Alas, not easy.

After a few people had eaten the bunch of grapes, and had rested in the yard, they were about to get up and prepare to go to see the fish.

Zhou Heng saw that they liked to eat this, and he planned to pick some more, but they rejected it again and again.

Okay, let's go see the fish first.

He brought the net from the last fishing time, and a bowl with him. With these two things, they can look at them for a longer time.

When the big yellow dog saw that Zhou Heng was going out again, he naturally followed.

Longxi Lake is a low-lying place, after leaving the village, it is all downhill, and some places are still very steep, Zhou Heng is planning to wait for the money to make money and then build a better ladder, so at present, he can only be careful to go down.

The assistant and the driver carefully helped Professor Wu and walked down slowly, for fear that he would fall.

It's steep here, and it's extremely dangerous to fall down.

Finally, they reached a relatively flat place, and several people breathed a sigh of relief.

Professor Wu said: "You don't have to be so nervous, my legs and feet are fine, and I can walk on my own." ”

The driver just nodded in response, but did not say a word.

But looking at his appearance, if there is any downhill slope, he will still hold on.

Seeing a boat parked not far in front of him, Professor Wu was immediately happy and praised: "This boat is good, this boat is really good, it wasn't made by us, right?"

Each place has a different style of architecture, carpentry, etc., which is not local, but has a very special sense of folklore, which Professor Wu can see at a glance.

Zhou Heng walked all the way with them, and explained: "This is indeed not from our side, I ordered it online, and it is an intangible cultural heritage material from another province." Now their old craft is also about to break the inheritance. ”

Hearing him say this, several people immediately stood in awe and looked at the ship carefully.

The objects created by the master are different, the shapes, carvings, and hollow railing decorations can be seen to be unusual and ingenious.

Several people helped Professor Wu onto the boat, and they looked and stroked for a while, and praised it repeatedly.

When he saw Zhou Heng's robe hanging on the side wall, he couldn't help laughing again, feeling that he was still quite thoughtful. In the countryside, it is rare to have such an aesthetic sense.

The assistant is younger, not from the countryside, he has never seen this thing, he has only read the word "Lingyi" in the book, what it looks like is completely up to imagination, and now he sees the real thing, and he can't help but reach out and touch it.

That's it!

The assistant was a graduate student, dressed plainly, without makeup, and barely looked like he had come from the city.

However, even if she doesn't wear makeup, she can still make people feel her bookish smell, Sven.

Zhou Heng drove the boat slowly, chatting with a few people, and talked about going to Boss Huang to buy fish fry.

Professor Wu nodded again and again and said, "The water quality of this lake is very good, and the fish farming is also very good, as long as it does not pollute the water quality, there is still a lot to be done." ”

He's a professor of fish, and it's clear what to look at.

And when I heard Zhou Heng say that this lake is still newly formed, and the kind of fish that has not been seen locally, it may be brought out directly from the groundwater, I also feel very excited.

Science is so fascinating, and there are always surprises happening.

The lake is so magically formed, and it's not surprising that there are some fish in it.

Zhou Heng took the excuse to go to the front of the ship to see the situation, but in fact, he took out his mobile phone to scan it, and quickly found the place, and then turned the direction to that side.

Originally, I told them to look for it, but the fish prefer to move in groups at a little above the water's surface, and you can see it if you look closely.

When Zhou Heng scooped up a few fish with a fishing net and put them in a bowl, Professor Wu and his assistant both had their eyes lit up and couldn't suppress their smiles.

It turns out that it's really not the reason for the video, the fish looks like this, and it looks like it doesn't look like it, because it's almost transparent.

Reaching out to the bowl to test the touch, the fish's defense is not too strong, that is, just dodge it a little.

If you change to some powerful fish, you can jump out of the bowl!

Professor Wu said repeatedly: "A new species, it must be a new species!" I have been studying it for so many years, and this is the first time I have seen it. Hahaha......"

To be honest, just to witness this unknown creature with his own eyes, he put aside all the topics he was studying for the time being, and came here as soon as possible.

The assistant helped Professor Wu take some pictures, and then made detailed notes, such as basic data such as shape, size, and state.

The next step is to do a little deeper testing to see if the fish is in nature, whether it is poisonous, and some genetic data, etc.

They brought some simple testing instruments that could do some corresponding tests.

This time was busy, the sky was almost dark, and then Zhou Heng's mobile phone rang, and it was his mother who called and asked him to go back to eat.

Zhou Heng said that there were still a few people here, the old professor and his driver and assistant.

Li Yunlian suddenly said: "You kid, why didn't you say it earlier? Look at ......."

Then I heard footsteps.

Presumably she was busy getting more vegetables again.

She heard Zhou Heng say yesterday that there would be an old professor from the province to come, but she didn't expect to come today, when Zhou Heng went to pick up people, she happened to be not at home, so she didn't tell her.

Having said that, Zhou Heng didn't know that he would be busy until this time.

At this point in time, it must be to stay for dinner. Maybe you'll have to stay overnight.

Zhou Heng's phone was hung up in a hurry, and before he could speak, Professor Wu had already guessed the general content of the call, and said, "This, Mr. Zhou, let's go back to eat by ourselves, don't bother with it anymore, tell your mother about it......"

"Professor Wu, you don't have to be so polite, it's okay to call me Xiao Zhou, it's okay to call me Zhou Heng, besides, my mother is that character, I can't persuade her. If you don't dislike it, you can have a light meal at my house and rest at my house in the evening. Otherwise, it will be dark for a while, and you will have to walk at night, and the road will not be easy to walk. Zhou Heng said.

Professor Wu added: "There is no need to be so troublesome, we have tents, we do scientific research, and we often need to stay in the field for a long time, which is not a problem." ”

At such an age, he still has to live in a tent in the wild, Zhou Heng sighed in his heart.

He said: "It's okay, don't be polite to us, the conditions in the countryside are not good, but it's better than living in a tent." This one is not troublesome. ”

After finishing the research at hand, there was only the last light left in the sky, and a few people hurriedly packed up and prepared everything, and Zhou Heng drove the boat back again.

When he came to Zhou Heng's house, he was already about to use a flashlight when he walked-the professor's assistant seemed to be very accustomed to dealing with such things, and he had already prepared for it.

The big yellow dog also followed, and before he got home, he barked a few times to remind him that they were back.

Li Yunlian had already cooked the meal and was resting while waiting for her son to come back.

She greeted her and complained: "Why are you busy until now? Xiao Heng, you don't persuade the old man, you won't run if you can't finish the matter, you can leave it for tomorrow!"

Professor Wu looked ashamed and said, "This eldest sister, I'm really sorry to disturb you!"

The driver and assistant also said "excuse me".

Mandarin in the provincial capital is still easy to understand.

Zhou Faqiang also came out and said with a smile: "Du Mo is standing outside, come in and eat." ”
