Chapter 718: Picking Up the Leak

The fat man climbed ashore from the water in a hurry: "Hero Mozhigen, your boat is too light, you have to be careful when you get on the boat." ”

"The main thing is that you're too heavy. "Mozhigen grabbed his hair, he was not shirking responsibility, but telling the truth. He sat in the middle of the boat just now, and the fat man had the same result whether he got on the bow or the stern.

Throwing off his clothes and pants, the fat man got on the boat bare-chested, and now it is almost May, although it is still a little cold for others, but the fat man is not afraid.

Mo Rigen had to move to the bow of the boat, and it was safer for the fat man to sit on the waist of the boat. But in this way, the responsibility of rowing falls to the fat man.

Although the fat man is strong, but the oars are technical work, and the birch bark boat is grinding in the same place, but it does not move forward.

"Just go down and push it-" The fat man has no tricks.

Mo Rigen explained with a gesture, and the fat man gradually mastered the essentials, and the birch bark boat flew against the water skin, quietly, labor-saving, and fast.

"Cast a net, and I'll stew catfish for you with willow sprouts. Mo Rigen sat on the bow of the boat, and sang the fishing song of the Hezhe tribe in his mouth, but the fat man could not understand it, but felt that the song was very long, and it floated on the water like mist. The grass on both sides of the river is green, the river is as clean as a belt, and the cranes are dancing in the sky.

This fascination, the fat man was a little intoxicated, and his hands were paddling mechanically with the oars, without any effort at all. The birch bark boat clings to the water skin, like an arrow from the string, going upstream.

paddling, I suddenly heard Mo Rigen shouting: "Fat brother, stop paddling, it seems that we have all come to the place where we met the big fish last time!"

The fat man came back to his senses at this time, only to feel refreshed, his arms had just been moved, and he seemed to have inexhaustible strength, and he couldn't help but be proud: "Haha, what are you afraid of, if there are really rays that dare to come over and make trouble, let's catch one and try it, anyway, there are a lot of big rays in this river!"

After the last investigation, the fat man knew that the fish in the river had formed a population and could be caught in moderation, so he would speak wildly, otherwise he would be reluctant to catch the rare big fish with his "small picking" of wild resources.

As soon as he heard the fat man say this, Mo Rigen was in high spirits, held the harpoon in his hand, and took out two coils of rope to tie them to the back handle of the harpoon, with a posture of eagerness. He had long wanted to do a vote, but the fat man never let go. As a fisherman of the Hezhe tribe, being able to catch a big fish is a veritable "Mozhigen".

Because of its large body and fierce nature, it is not easy to catch. When the fishermen found the fish, they threw their forks and then put a rope on the fish until it was exhausted, and then put an iron hook on the shore.

Looking at Mo Rigen's nervous and excited look, the fat man didn't care, he had a wishful thinking in his heart: just collect one secretly, and don't have to spend anything. When the establishment of the villa was celebrated, it was also regarded as a famous dish.

Although in recent years there have been artificial domestication and breeding of large eel fish, but because of the water quality, the taste must be much worse, the large eel in Nanwazi is absolutely natural, can be compared to the ancient tribute to the emperor.

In the Qing Dynasty, the eel was a tribute and had to be transported to Beijing every year. But in other seasons, because of the thousands of miles, the fish stinks halfway, so it can only be transported in winter.

But in winter, there is no way to catch big rays, so the spring and summer caught rays are specially found in a piece of water and kept in captivity, and now there are many places called the fish ring, which is from this. Wait until winter to catch it again, hang it with yellow silk, and transport the fish to Beijing in a mighty way, called "Fish Tribute".

These old antiques, the fat man has heard the car boss talk about it, so he is also very yearning for this kind of big fish, hehe, of course, he is yearning to taste it himself.

Unexpectedly, the fat man searched while rowing, and went up the river for several miles, but there was still no trace of the fish. Mo Zhigen held the harpoon, and his arm was a little sore, but he didn't have a chance to launch it.

"What's a strange thing—" The fat man couldn't help muttering, "Why are these big fish all missing, do you know that we have bad intentions?"

Mo Rigen put down the harpoon and slapped his thigh vigorously: "By the way, this month, all the rays are swimming against the current and looking for a place to spawn." ”

The fat man nodded: "That's possible, other things are not so vigorous, our brothers are fine anyway, join in the fun, by the way, how many fish are in our river." ”

"If it's a place where the rays are gathered, it's better not to go, our birch bark boat can't hold them up, and if we fall into the river like last time, we won't be so lucky. Instead, he retreated, as his ancestors had passed down the rule that during the spawning season of fish, fishing was generally suspended.

This is similar to Orion, old hunters like Wang Sanpao and them are very taboo to hunt young animals and female beasts with cubs, only those two poles do not care about it, do not pay attention to the rules.

The fat man was stupid and bold: "There is me, at most one thigh is enough, such an opportunity cannot be missed, I have always wondered, why have I never seen a small fish downstream, this time I must have a good touch." ”

Mo Rigen's arm couldn't twist his thighs, so he had to let the fat man paddle hard, and the fat man rowed harder and harder, and finally howled in his throat: "Helping the sea in the same boat to make way, the trumpet waves are on the side, hundreds of boats are competing for thousands of sails, and the waves are in front of the back bank——"

Not to mention, the singing was magnificent, and the worries in Mo Rigen's heart gradually dissipated.

"There's a river, it should be about the same. Mo Rigen stood at the bow of the boat and looked into the distance, only to see a water gushing from the river in front of him, so he guided the fat man to row over.

The fat man searched for a moment, and then scratched the back of his head: "I think it's safer for our brothers to go ashore-"

Mo Rigen saw that the fat man was still ambitious just now, and the sea let the waves step aside or something, and now he stepped aside first. But it was exactly what he wanted, so he got the birch bark boat to the shore, and the two of them got out of the boat, pulled the boat directly to the shore, and then walked along the river.

The fat man also came to this place for the first time, and saw that the river was very wide, the water flow was gentle, the river water was clear, and the water and grass in it were swaying, like a piece of green jade spread at the bottom of the river.

"The little fish - it doesn't seem like you could be wrong, this is where the fish spawn, and that's where the little fish grow up and then go into the big river. "Mo Rigen saw a shakuhachi-long fish in the river, and if you were a layman, you would think it was a catfish.

Of course, the fat man knew more about the situation than him, and there were really a lot of fish fry in this section of the river, so he didn't care about thirty-seven twenty-one, and put away dozens of them first.

Don't look at these small fish, but the predation is very ferocious, small fish and shrimp or something swallowed in one bite, fortunately this water is rich in aquatic plants, all kinds of fish like to come here to spawn, so the density of juvenile fish is very large.

But the fat man's wooden box is different, so he didn't dare to overcharge, let alone touch those big adult fish, not too much, two of them can't be carried, and the other fish in the pond will be eaten up sooner or later.

"Big Ray!" exclaimed Morrigan, who finally saw a big fish swimming in the water. This is a female fish, more than two meters long, spawning on aquatic weeds. Large round fish eggs are discharged from the body, crystal like jade, as if carved with jadeite.

Mo Rigen licked his lips: "Fish eggs, that's the best of fish eggs—"

As they spoke, another big fish followed, and it seemed that this was their favorite nest.

"Hehe, let's not be a light bulb here-" In fact, the fat man saw far more than Mo Rigen, and within the range he had already searched, he had already found more than a dozen large fish with a body length of more than two meters, so he didn't dare to row the wooden boat into this water. Of course, he didn't want to spoil this atmosphere of Anong, and the idea of hunting and killing the fish faded, anyway, there will be opportunities in the future.

After walking a few miles along the riverbank, the fat man had found more than thirty big fish, and Mo Rigen had seen five or six, and he was very excited. However, it was the spawning season, and he didn't dare to kill him, so he could only look at the dry eyes.

"There's a situation—" The fat man pointed to a beach on the shore, and the two men ran over and stood by the river.

I saw a large fish nearly three meters long stranded on the beach, and the golden skin of the fish was already a little dry. The fish are scaleless, but have a layer of mucus on their body that has been dried by the sun.

"It doesn't seem to be dead yet?" The fat man saw that the mouth of the fish under the long nose was still slightly open and closed, so he started to push it into the water. This fish is three or five hundred today, and the fat man doesn't dare to push too hard, so he really can't move him.

"It's a female fish, and it is estimated that after spawning, the physical exertion is too great, and then it is stranded. Mozhigen jumped into the water, and his hands lifted the water on the fish, and when the beach was wet, the fat man pushed the big fish into the river.

Both of them seemed to have forgotten that just now, they had been ambitious to kill a big fish.

But the fish was obviously not good, the big tail shook a few times weakly, and the body was half lying in the water, unable to swim at all.

Mo Rigen shook his head: "Fatty, it seems that we can only pick up the leak, let's get it back, otherwise it will be a pity." Although it had always been his dream to hunt and kill the fish, Mozhigen was not excited at all. If you defeat the big fish in the stormy seas, that counts.

"Hehe, although the process is a little different from what we imagined, the result is the same. "When the fat man saw that this fish was no longer good, he was no longer hypocritical, and he should be buried in the temple of the five organs.

"Fatty, you're watching here, I'll go back and get a big raft. "Mozhigen saw that the fish was so big that if the boat had loaded it, it would no longer be able to sit on people.

"Don't bother so much, tie it with a rope and pull it back from the water. "It's still a fat man's brain, and he quickly came up with a countermeasure. So he brought the big fish to the shore, tied it with a rope, and the fat man, with all his might, picked it up and went to the birch bark boat.

The big fish was lying behind the fat man, his head and tail trembling, and Mo Zhigen behind could only see the fat man's two legs moving forward.

He couldn't help muttering: "Anyway, this time I have a mouthful, or I tasted the fish meat once when I was a child, this fish is a treasure all over its body!"
