Chapter 88: Releasing the Fish
After negotiating the price, Liu Zhengfeng carried the fish and the fish rod and left with his head held high. He didn't cash in the money and meal tickets on the spot, Wang He was not afraid of being lazy behind the second head and not giving it, he was so good-looking, he shouldn't have leaked the origin of the fish because of this money.
After tossing and turning like this for a while, Wang He caught a grasshopper in the grass next to him and put it on the fishing hook, and then he threw the rod and started fishing again.
Grasshoppers are locusts, also known as grasshoppers, and there is a famous singing group in Hong Kong called "grasshoppers".
Wang He held the fishing rod in one hand and looked at the triggered task:
[Congratulations to Wang He, you triggered the mission of "Lovelorn Front Alliance"!]
γAccept the mission:γ
γYesγ
[No]
"I didn't think that catching a grasshopper would trigger a mission. β
Wang He was a little speechless, but he didn't wonder anymore. The Grasshopper Group was established in 1985 and is composed of Cai Yizhi, Cai Yijie and Su Zhiwei.
After Wang He sang the lyrics, he was silent when he saw the text in the task box that appeared:
[Requirements: Please find at least one lovelorn and talk to them.] γ
"Where can I find this Nima? Who is out of love will not write the word "lost love" on the door of his head!"
When Wang He was at a loss, he accidentally saw the fish floating in the river diving rapidly, and at the same time, there was a strong force from the fishing rod in his hand!
"it! again?"
Wang He hurriedly clenched the fishing rod, the force from the water was too great, one hand could not do it, stretched out two hands to hold the fishing rod before stabilizing his position.
The old man in the distance looked at Wang He, who was pulling back with a fishing rod while retreating, and somehow a fire suddenly broke out in his heart, and at the same time he had the urge to scold the street:
"I didn't expect to be angry with Chen Jianfeng in the village, and even the fish came out to bully Lao Tzu! Lao Tzu has been fishing for half a month, and he only caught a few pig saws, and this little kid will catch a big fish as soon as he comes!"
After forbearance, the old man did not throw the fishing rod in his hand into the river. He watched Wang He holding the fishing rod and engaged in a tug-of-war with the fish, recalled the transaction between Wang He and Liu Zhengfeng just now, touched the beard of his chin and thought about it, got up and put away the fishing rod, walked to the side and replaced the fishing rod with a net, walked slowly to Wang He's side, observed the occasional dorsal fin exposed in the river, and said:
"You drag the fish to the river, and I'll help you hold it with a net. Otherwise, I'm afraid you won't be able to hold this rod. β
Wang He is as good as a stream, listened to the old man's words, collected the fish in front of him, operated according to the old man's words, and pulled back and pulled the fish to the shore, this is a big grass carp with a green back and white belly, twisting its body in the water, struggling before leaving the water, it almost succeeded, only about half a meter away from the shore, it finally broke free from the hook, and then ...... Plunged headlong into the net!
After the big grass carp unhooked, Wang He, who was still pulling hard, was caught off guard and fell backwards on the grass!
"Oh!"
When Wang He got up, the old man had already buckled the fish to the grass with a net, and the fish was full of vigor, still there in a dying struggle, constantly swaying and writhing.
The old man thought for a moment, and said in a consultative tone:
"Can this fish be caught together?"
"Absolutely. It's okay to say you caught it. β
The old man was still thinking about his words, so Wang He interrupted him and said generously:
"I don't have much use for this fish, I just want to enjoy the process of fishing. If you want this fish, I'll leave it to you. β
After hearing this, the wrinkles on the old man's face relaxed, and the goatee touching his chin smiled:
"I didn't expect you to be a young kid, but you are very generous. yes, yes. I'm going to take advantage of you today, and I'll take care of the fish. β
After speaking, he picked up the net and caught the fish, handed it to the river, flipped the net over, and released the big grass carp.
Seeing that Wang He was not surprised that he had released the fish, the old man couldn't help but become interested, and asked with a smile:
"Don't you think it's strange that I let go of such a big fish? This fish is enough for a family for a day. β
The old man was about sixty years old, in his early sixties, with a thin build, his gray hair was messy, his face was full of wrinkles, his beard was particularly conspicuous on his thin face, he was wearing a gray cloth shirt and pants full of patches, and a pair of worn-out liberation shoes on his feet.
To the old man's question, Wang He replied without thinking:
"What's so strange about this, you must want to catch it with your own hands, so that you can feel a sense of accomplishment. β
The old man's eyes lit up, as if he had found a soulmate, and he said a little excitedly:
"Yes, yes, yes, I can't imagine that you can understand this truth better than many adults at such a young age. Alas, it's a pity, it's a pity that some people have lived for decades, and even a child is not as good as ......"
After chatting for a while, the two exchanged names, the old man's name was Chen Shifeng, and his nickname was Lao Yubo. After learning that Wang He was a nunchuck, the old man was a little surprised, and looked at him seriously. When Wang He heard this, he wanted to laugh and was embarrassed, so he had to smile awkwardly and politely, but his hands were unconsciously scratching his head.
In the local dialect, the carving is the meaning of ***, the pronunciation of the word carving and fishing is similar, but the tone is different, speaking faster in the spoken language, it is easy to say that the fishing uncle is the carving uncle, the old fishing uncle is the old egg, the old chicken.
Wang He really wanted to ask what this old man thought, this nickname is too indecent! Wang He ignored it, his own nickname is Diaozi, in fact, it also has the meaning of ***.
Wang He thought it was very funny, but the old man didn't mind, and when he heard that Wang He just wanted to fish everywhere, he confidently said that he knew all the fishing spots within a radius of dozens of miles, and asked Wang He to go with him, there was a place with beautiful scenery and big fish.
After packing up his things, Wang He followed the old man up the mountain beam where he ran every day, and then went downhill and uphill for a while, and after crossing another mountain, he could see a waterfall hanging between the two mountains opposite.
The two mountains are actually arranged diagonally one in front of the other, but the one in front of the left is shorter, and the one behind the right is taller, and it seems to be side by side at first glance.
The White Dragon Waterfall is behind the two mountains, the distance seems to be close but it is far away, and in the position of Wang He, this waterfall is only as big as a white towel. The water washed down by the waterfall flows between the two mountains, and I turn left and run in the direction of Hanshengtei.
After climbing to the top of the mountain, the field of vision is broad, the breeze blows, and there is a good mountain and water in the eye, which makes people feel relaxed and happy.
Wang He couldn't help but admire:
"It's my first time here, it's a great view. β
The old man pointed to the opposite side and said:
"That's Bailong Waterfall, that's Bailong Village. β
After Wang He saw the waterfall, he saw that at the foot of the mountain on the left, among the lush trees, there were several yellowed walls and several tiled roofs.
