Hearing the gunshot, Ao Muyang was startled, what is the identity of this person, and how can he have a gun in his hand?
The monkeys were even more frightened, and they all stopped throwing stones and fled.
Soon, a figure walked up the mountain road.
Ao Muyang took a look at it, this was a middle-aged man in his forties, with the usual characteristics of an islander, with dark and rough skin, a wide skeleton, and a lively gait.
The middle-aged man was carrying a large bamboo basket on his back, his hands were empty, and there was no trace of the gun.
The two looked at each other, and the middle-aged man smiled: "Hello, the monkeys were harassing you just now?"
Ao Muyang nodded: "Yes, they threw stones at me, hello, my name is Ao Muyang, and I followed the fishing boat to the island to replenish fresh water, vegetables and fruits." ”
Dahan pointed to his chest and said, "I am Jindabus, a resident of Golden Monkey Island, and a fisherman, so let's go together." ”
Ao Muyang shook his hand, and then asked hesitantly: "...... I heard a gunshot just now?"
The big man smiled: "What a gunshot, that's a firecracker." ”
As he spoke, he took out a few red paper-shelled firecrackers from his pocket: "These monkeys are lawless and can't hurt them, so we use firecrackers to scare them." ”
Ao Muyang suddenly realized, he also laughed, and said: "But it's a bit dangerous to use firecrackers on the mountain, in case it causes a forest fire, it's troublesome." ”
Jin Daba waved his hand and said: "No, the grass and trees here are evergreen all year round, and there is plenty of moisture, and a little spark will not cause its fire." ”
As they spoke, the two climbed up the mountain road.
During the conversation, Ao Muyang learned that the two had the same destination, both going to the peak, but he was there to see the copper frame lanterns, and the golden bus was to collect wild mountain mushrooms.
He already has some mushrooms in his basket, which is one of the sources of income for the locals, and the dried mushrooms are sold to tourists or crew members who visit the island.
Accompanied by someone, the mountain road is easier to walk, especially comfortable Golden Bus climbs on the mountain all the year round, it is an exaggeration to say that he knows the mountain well, but he is indeed familiar with several hidden mountain roads, and it is faster to walk.
Finally, at noon, the summit of the mountain is approaching.
For a long time, because it was far from the mainland, except for the former garrison and the current ships coming to the island to obtain supplies, the rest of the island was almost isolated from the world and in a semi-natural state, so it could be called a pure land.
Ao Muyang stood on the top of the mountain, and the entire island fell into his eyes.
The sea was vast in the distance, and the big ships on the pier had turned into small boats at this time, and the figures were as ethereal as ants, almost invisible.
The midday sun is dazzling, and the sun on people quickly makes people feel hot and dry.
There was shade on the top of the mountain, and Jin Daba found an unknown tree to sit down, took out a kettle and drank it heartily.
Ao Muyang looked around, the light sign standing on the top of the mountain is not far away, the base and escalator are made of copper, with a deep sense of the vicissitudes of the times, there is a layer of patina on the outside, and the green makes people feel cold on the top of their heads.
Jin Daba took out the food from the basket, including rice balls, small cakes, fish and pickles, and he beckoned: "Brother Ao, let's eat two bites together, it's time for lunch." ”
After a pause, he smiled again: "But my lunch is very simple, don't dislike it." ”
Originally, Ao Muyang wanted to be polite, but when people said so, he couldn't refuse, otherwise it would look like he disliked other people's things.
Of course, he would not dislike the lunch on the golden bus, because he didn't bring anything, only a little dried fruit from the veteran, and he didn't plan to climb to the top of the mountain, so he only brought a bottle of water.
Jin Daba brought fried shrimp paste, pure shrimp paste fried with chili peppers, mixed with eggs, rolled with small cakes he brought to eat, full of chewiness, fragrant taste.
Ao Muyang is an expert, and he gave a thumbs up when he ate the shrimp sauce in the small cake roll and said: "It's delicious, this shrimp sauce is fried authentically, the fresh and fragrant are complete, there is no fishy smell, it's amazing." ”
Jin Daba's face showed a smug look: "My mother-in-law's craftsmanship is average." ”
He used wild eggs when he fried shrimp paste, and wild birds, pheasants and hares were not allowed to be hunted in the mountains, but the villagers would pick up some bird eggs and wild eggs, which the scientific research workers on the island did not care about.
In fact, even if the people on the island catch some game, no one cares.
The people on the island catch wild meat for food at most, and there are less than 1,000 residents on Golden Monkey Island, and for a land with more than 1,500 acres, this person only eats, and it has no impact on the reproduction of wild animals.
When it comes to game, Jin Daba said with a smile: "Your sister-in-law's ability to fry shrimp sauce is average, she is very good at making spicy rabbit meat, and when you go down the mountain, you can go to my house to try it, if you like it, I can sell some to you, it tastes great." ”
People are going to do business, Ao Muyang said: "Okay, I like to eat rabbit meat, I must try it." ”
Wild meat aside, there are many wild plants on Golden Monkey Island, and Jin Daba told him that there are a total of 98 families and 208 species, "Look at the trees below, that is called Tianzhu Gui, and there, those are red nan trees, scientists say that at the same latitude, these trees have become extinct......
After lunch, Jin Daba found wild mushrooms in the shade of the trees on the top of the mountain, while Ao Muyang sat on the lantern escalator looking at the ocean and overlooking the island.
He is very envious of the environment of Golden Monkey Island, if Longtou Village has such an environment, then the development of tourism is not a matter of minutes?
Everything is fine on Golden Monkey Island, but it's too far away from the land to get people up, otherwise the island will soon become the star of the island resort scene.
On the other hand, it is precisely for this reason that the island can maintain a paradise-like environment.
After the golden bus searched around the top of the mountain, they began to descend the mountain.
There are two villages on the island, called Dajin Village and Xiaojin Village.
The people of both villages are all immigrants and family members left over from the former troops stationed on the island, and their livelihood is mainly from fishing and simple farming.
Jin Daba is a person from Xiaojin Village, with a total of about 150 households and 400 people in the village.
Among them, his surname has little to do with the name of the village, the surname in the village is very complicated, in his words, it is a village with a hundred surnames.
The village is built on a small plain with a back mountain on Golden Monkey Island, and most of the buildings are stilted buildings, bamboo buildings and wooden houses.
Everything in the home of Jin Da Bus is very modern, the TV and refrigerator are fully air-conditioned, and there is a bamboo mat on the floor, which is cool and pleasant to step on barefoot.
Many things in the village are bamboo products, and on the way, Ao Muyang saw a child riding a bamboo horse fighting, which reminded him of the allusion of Lang riding a bamboo horse and going around the bed to make green plums.
In fact, the big and small gold villages are wrapped in bamboo forests, the sea breeze blows, the bamboo forest is rustling, and the fragrance of bamboo leaves comes with the wind, making the small village look like a paradise.
