"If there is anything in the future, just look for me, Kowloon, I am optimistic about you. ”

The great god was still cheering for Kowloon, and then chatted with Lashi about family life.

Xiao Cheng was originally talking to Master Qiu about publishing a book, but when he saw Jiulong greeting him, he stood up politely.

"Wucai is also a stone talent, Zhangping, first-class level of photography, whether ink stone can be famous in the future depends on you young people. ”

Master Qiu seemed to value Wucai very much and gave an introduction to Kowloon.

"Don't listen to Master Qiu's nonsense, I'm just playing for a few more years, there are too many people who claim to be experts in playing stones these years, some bullshit is not, don't take it too seriously. ”

It seems that Wucai is quite modest and has a deep understanding of the current situation in the stone world.

Jiulong had a good impression of Wucai and felt that this person could be friends, so he said bluntly: "What strange stones are there in Zhangping, can you introduce them?"

"I'm sorry, I have something to talk about with Master Qiu today, otherwise, next time I go to my strange stone shop in Zhangping, I will give you a physical introduction, so that you will be more impressed. ”

After speaking, he handed Kowloon a business card.

Kowloon thought about it, so he didn't bother anymore and continued to admire Master Qiu's strange stones.

Qian Dashen saw that Xiao Cheng and Master Qiu were talking about it, so he walked over: "Master Qiu, how about it, you have so many good stones, it's a pity not to publicize it, I told you last time I came to let Tingjiang Stone go out, there is only one way to publicize, you also know, my "Strait Stone Appreciation" magazine has a lot of influence, how about it?"

After speaking, he glanced at Xiao Cheng.

Xiao Cheng is also helping: "Yes, Master Qiu, I will take pictures of the best side of your strange stone, and you will be satisfied with the picture effect when the time comes." ”

"If you want to promote it, the name must be called Ink Stone, I said it last time you came, why are you so verbose!"

Master Qiu didn't give the great god a good look, and seemed to be very dissatisfied.

The great god and Wucai looked at each other, it seemed that this Master Qiu was old and stubborn, and it was useless for the great god to move out of Xiaocheng this time, the great god thought about it for a while, and there was: "Master Qiu, let's do it, how about the name Tingjiang Jiulongbi?" ”

"No!" Master Qiu spat out two words, not glancing at the great god at all.

"Is it okay to call Ting Jiangbi? Hide the three words Jiulongbi. ”

This is the last bottom line for the great god to give into, in order to promote Jiulongbi, so that the business card of Jiulongbi is known to the whole world, he went up to the central government and down to the locality, and he did not hesitate to offend many people and let it go.

"No, just the three words ink stone, there is no room for negotiation, if you agree, just ask Xiao Cheng to take pictures." ”

Master Qiu was very persistent, and then he looked at his watch, and at 17:00, he ignored the great god and looked out of the door with his eyes, as if he was waiting for something.

The great god is also a person who adheres to the concept very much, let me promote ink stone, what do others think of me? This money would rather not be earned, but also to fight for breath, this Master Qiu is really a tendon, forget it, let's talk about it later, so I got up with Xiao Cheng and said goodbye.

Not long after Master Qiu sent them away, Kowloon felt that he couldn't stay for a long time after admiring the strange stones, so he had to say goodbye.

At this time, a man wearing a Li Ning brand sports suit broke in, this person had a Chinese face, about fifty miles away, with a smile on his face, and shouted when he entered the door: "Wow, you are here, are you ready for tonight?" Tingjiang is out of flow again, hurry up and pick up stones. ”

What? Picking up stones at night, this thing is fresh, it is dark, it is difficult to walk, can you see the stones clearly? Kowloon was very puzzled.

"I've been preparing for a long time, just waiting for you to arrive. ”

Master Qiu greeted him warmly and walked in with his arm around the other party's shoulders, which was a world of difference from the attitude of receiving the great god just now.

"Jiulong, come, introduce, this is Lin Zhushi, the leader of Tingjiang Stone Appreciation, the backbone of the newly established Longyan Strange Stone Association, a senior player, but his head is a little stubborn, and he has to agree with Qian Zhonghua's name of Jiulongbi, he is really angry with him, and he doesn't love his hometown stone at all. ”

Although he said this, Master Qiu did not reflect how annoyed he was, which shows that the two have a good relationship, and their different concepts do not hurt their feelings, which makes Kowloon see Master Qiu's cute side.

Lin Zhushi generously stretched out his right hand to Jiulong and Lashi, shook them one by one, and smiled on his face: "Don't listen to Master Qiu's nonsense, he is a stone in the pit, smelly and hard, called Jiulongbi doesn't love his hometown, this is the logic of the sect? Lashi, today I brought the little handsome guy over to pick up stones." ”

It seemed that Lashi was familiar with him, and Kowloon was busy introducing himself and throwing out the question just now.

He wanted to know how to play with stones at night.

Lin Zhushi turned his head to Master Qiu: "You can talk to the young man." ”

Master Qiu glanced at Kowloon and talked about the origin of picking up stones at night.

In early spring this year, Shi Youcheng Guohua, who lives by the Tingjiang River, said that the river often stopped flowing for a long time at night.

I think this news is definitely a golden opportunity for picking up strange stones, because the Tingjiang River is blocked by the Cotton Beach Reservoir, and the water level can only recede to Lufengdri and Dagu Beach during the dry season in spring.

Therefore, I immediately discussed with Guohua and asked him to tell me in time when he found this situation, and at the same time invited Zhushi to go downstream to pick up strange stones.

After receiving the reply, we immediately went online to buy strong flashlights, plastic waterproof trousers to wear, etc.

The first time I drove a pickup truck at ten o'clock in the evening to the Lufengdri River section, and waited until half past twelve o'clock when the water was still very strong, so I had to go home.

Later, after a few days of observation, it was found that the Huangzhu section of the Tingjiang River at the entrance of Guohua House took at least five hours after there was no water, and the downstream water gradually receded and stopped.

Based on this, Guohua is responsible for observing and calculating the interruption time according to the time, and informing us in advance to prepare.

The second time I went, due to the late time, after the three of them ate a snack, they set off at one o'clock in the evening and arrived downstream at nearly two o'clock in the evening.

As soon as the river receded, everyone was happy and excited, because when they were picking up rocks before, they had never encountered such a lack of water downstream.

Everyone played flashlights with one hand and picked up strange stones with the other.

Due to the small amount of water and the fact that the strange stones are washed clean by the water, it is easy to see the situation in the clear water.

Those beautiful stones lie there quietly, waiting for us to pick them up.

Everyone had a good harvest, a happy mood, laughter and surprises.

In the process of picking up stones, two local fishermen saw us in the river with flashlights, thought we were catching fish, shouted hello, ran from afar, saw that we were picking up strange stones and left, muttering as they walked: a group of neurotics.

We picked it up until about six o'clock, and it was already light.

After everyone went ashore, they forgot about their fatigue and were the first to appreciate each other's treasures.

This is our first initiative, after that, we will go as soon as there is a break in the stream, and today happens to be the time of the interruption, but unfortunately Guohua has something to do.

Kowloon's curiosity came, and he couldn't hold it back, so he asked Master Qiu to take him to see the world.

It was the first time that Lashi had been picking up stones for so long, and it was the first time he had heard about picking up stones at night.

Master Qiu and Lin Zhushi smiled knowingly and agreed.

Master Qiu was not idle, he asked Shi You next door for two sets of strong flashlights and plastic waterproof trousers, which were practical for Kowloon and La.

Everything is ready, and after having a light meal at Master Qiu's house in the evening, Master Qiu will drive the pickup truck and go all the way.

Picking up stones late at night is indeed different, to the destination, everything is quiet, the whole Tingjiang River seems to enter a state of sleep due to the drop in water level, the flashlight of the four people reflects each other, breaking the tranquility of the night sky, Jiulong is very excited, put on waterproof trousers, eagerly go to the river, although the cold wind in the middle of the night, Jiulong shivered a few times, quickly rubbed his hands hard, the expectation of a good stone, offset a lot of cold.

Kowloon used to be picked up on the beach, but now it goes straight to the center of the river.

He picked up a few picture stones with a special texture and threw them into his satchel, focusing on the depths of the water, for fear of missing a good stone.

The cold wind blew from time to time, and he couldn't help but shiver a few more, and the snot came out uncontrollably, and Kowloon wiped it with his hand and continued to look for stones.

The joy of picking up rocks has long been left behind.

He only cared about whether there were stones in the river, and unconsciously, he was getting farther and farther away from Master Qiu.

Concentrating on picking up stones, he suddenly noticed that the river water was getting higher and higher, and the turbid river water had reached his knees, and it seemed that he had been in the isolated island of the rapids, and he was taken aback, and then he remembered that the water may have been released upstream, not good, and he had to go ashore, so he immediately walked back, and found that the river was more than two feet high, and some of the bare riverbed just now had been covered by the water……

At this time, Jiulong realized that the river had risen a lot, and why did the other three around him disappear?

He was particularly worried about Lashi's safety, this kid was a landlubber, so don't have an accident.

He didn't dare to think about it, so he hurriedly ran downstream along the coast.

After running for nearly 300 meters, I vaguely saw three figures by the river, all three of whom were lying on the shore, and the flashlights were long gone.

"Kowloon, come and help me, Lashi has fallen into the water. "This is Master Qiu's voice.

It turned out that after the river rose just now, Wax Shi panicked, hurriedly walked to the river, accidentally, fell, and the whole person sank into the water in all directions, so he had to shout for help with all his might.

The closest to Lashi was Master Qiu, who happened to pick up a good strange stone, and when he heard the sound of help, he even threw the stone, and quickly approached Lashi.

When Lin Zhushi heard the shout, he also came over to help as soon as possible.

The two of them tried their best to drag Lashi ashore.

Jiulong squatted down, probed Lashi's nostrils, lost his breath, was surprised, and hurriedly removed the dirt from Lashi's mouth and nose, and then did artificial respiration.

Fortunately, Master Qiu and they saved people in time just now, and after less than a minute, Lashi let out a "wow", spit water from his mouth, and finally woke up.

The three of Kowloon breathed a sigh of relief, and hurriedly went to the car to bring their coats and put them on Lashi.

Everyone hurriedly took off their waterproof trousers, and Master Qiu started the pickup truck and returned to the city as fast as possible.
