Chapter 18: Nirvana
The secret place is over a low ridge, a small wetland hidden by dense vegetation.
If you don't know the actual situation, you look from the outside, and you can't imagine that in the wilderness with such dense plants and broad-leaved trees, there is actually a mysterious wetland hidden, in fact, Gu Jihai, who walked on the road when he came, was also unexpected, but, a corner, everything suddenly opened up, there is no cave, there are no more trees in the sky, what enters the eye is an exotic style, the scene changes, which is very shocking.
The first time he experienced this strange cave, Gu Jihai was really shocked, he was stunned and motionless, he couldn't walk for at least two minutes, he had never seen such a wetland in his hometown.
Although the wetland is small, it is also large for people, with an area of about ten acres, overgrown with wild grasses.
At a glance, there are clumps of tall or short, thin or dense plants, and there are black sludge that does not know the depth, or shallow puddles.
It's a beautiful, vibrant, and in fact off the beaten track.
Gu Jihai had never heard of everything here, but Gu Jihai had heard some of the legends of the mountains that were so hidden, and the legends were full of snakes, ghosts, and spirits.
Along the way, there were mountain demons and water monsters or something, Gu Jihai hadn't seen them, but he had seen a lot of all kinds of snakes and beasts that he couldn't name.
The beasts I have seen are generally relatively small in size, and they are not lethal to Gu Jihai, so there is no need to be afraid, what really makes Gu Jihai jealous is that snakes may appear anytime, anywhere, on the road, and in the trees.
But it doesn't matter, after spraying some unknown incense powder handed over to him by the old man, he followed the route given by the old man, and remembered the old man's advice: if you can, you can only go under the tree, and if you can't avoid it, walk quickly.
In this way, the journey was unharmed, and although the snakes of various physiques that occasionally jumped on the road ahead were very scary, they were also quite frightening.
After walking to the wetland, it was easy to see some field chickens crawling everywhere, but Gu Jihai did not stop, he remembered every word of the old man's advice:
It's just a small dish in the muddy field, coaxing people who have never seen the world to ask for it. If you really want to have a big receipt, you must have to Keqingshitang. Do it inside the bluestone pond, and you should do it outside for a day. What's more, there are no snakes there.
Thinking that he would soon be able to easily obtain the first start-up capital, Gu Jihai, who was becoming more and more hot, naturally accelerated his pace, and walked for about ten minutes, and he came to the Qingshitang that the old man said.
After coming, Gu Jihai found that the so-called bluestone pond was not a stone pond, but a few large bluestones, horizontal or vertical, and they walked there messily.
Gu Jihai didn't come to fish for field chickens, he had better ideas.
Gu Jihai quickly chose a foothold for the three large fiber bags he brought, and the geographical pattern here was better than he imagined, which made him overjoyed. He even temporarily improved the trap trap.
Due to the layout of the place, he chose three well-born horizontal bluestone slabs as the layout site, and then used the firewood knife he brought to cut a few trees to make six piles, and each trap was just right to lay two piles. And use rope and wire to connect the fiber bag with the two piles on the left and right sides of the bluestone, fix the opening of the fiber bag on the end of the bluestone slab, and then put most of the fiber bag except for the opening into the mud or water under the bluestone slab.
It's not enough to just complete a framework.
The upper and lower lines connecting the left and right piles of the bluestone slab, through the opening of the fiber bag, have fixed the upper and lower edges of the fiber bag to keep a distance, and will not close, Gu Jihai used two wires to insert the left and right sides of the fiber bag, with the wire as the skeleton, and connected with the upper and lower lines together, forming a rectangular opening, and ensuring that the left and right sides will not close.
Then, Gu Jihai used a small iron ring that had been prepared to fix the lock of the fiber bag, so that the lock of the fiber bag could only pass through a small pumpkin at a time. After the last, Gu Jihai put a tape recorder under the opening of the fiber bag, and turned it on, and everything was ready.
The tape recorder played a certain sound recorded by Gu Jihai that imitated the cry of a field chicken, which was blown out by the old man with their secret weapon, the Ma obedient call.
According to the old man, the sound is very good.
In this way, a perfect trap is born.
First of all, the sound of the imitation of the field chicken played in the tape recorder will attract a large number of field chickens to the opening of the fiber bag that has been fixed, and then the unlucky field chicken will fall from the fiber bag opening, along the lock, into the bottom of the fiber bag naturally falling.
This process is very easy, but once the Arita chicken falls into the fiber bag, it is difficult to get out again.
You think, the iron ring at the lock of the fiber bag has its own weight, and it will reduce to a certain extent the lock that is not reserved is large, and the field chicken goes down from the top to the bottom of the fiber bag, the volume is ordinary and smaller, because the lock can accommodate them to pass, they fall down as soon as they grunt, and the old chicken, which is relatively large, has a relatively large self-weight due to its own weight, even if the bottleneck is reduced due to the natural hanging of the iron ring, it is smaller than their belly circumference, but, Their enormous weight lifts the naturally hanging hoops, thus increasing the cross-sectional area of the neck of the neck.
Let's put it this way, as long as it is not the iron ring of a small pumpkin stuffed with a belly that is bigger than the field chicken, it is entirely possible that it will fall into the trap arranged by Gu Jihai. As for the old chickens whose belly circumference is indeed bigger than a small pumpkin, when Gu Jihai arranged the traps, he did not presuppose their existence.
In fact, Gu Jihai had never seen such a big field chicken.
But what about the pheasant that fell into the trap and wants to get out? That's almost impossible.
First, there is a distance of more than one meter from the lock to the bottom of the fiber bag, and it is completely perpendicular to the surface. In other words, if the field chicken wants to come out, it must at least jump more than one meter high. You think the chickens here are all playing Olympics, and they are all high jump.
Second, you think the level at the lock is a joke? Even if the field chicken jumps more than a meter high, then it has to open the iron ring that hangs naturally, and it is still in the process of the field chicken jumping, otherwise it will soon fall down, and all its strength will be lost. Also, as there are more and more chickens in the fiber bag, more and more heavy, the chickens that fall into the trap want to jump out again, it will become more and more difficult, because the strength of one or two chickens is not proportional to the weight of many chickens, how can you escape in the case of so many companions' self-weight in the case of help?
Having said all that, do you think I'm going to tell you that it's a nirvana?
