Chapter 62: Surprise

endured the icy water temperature, fortunately it was not winter, it was not biting, and Liu Yi could still hold on to this temperature.

Finally arrived at the opposite shore, Liu Yi pulled the rope vigorously, ready to pull the fishing net tied to the other end of the rope. was pulled over the rope by the third uncle who ran along the reservoir.

Hand over the clothes, "Hurry up and put them on, be careful of catching a cold!" ”

Liu Yi quickly took it, his whole body shook up and down a few times, and he didn't care about the water droplets left on the surface of his body, so he put on his clothes first.

Casting nets and fishing officially began, but fortunately today, there are more people, and all the big men have a lot of strength.

I saw that on both sides of the reservoir, there were 4 people on each side pulling the ropes at both ends of the fishing net, slowly walking to the end of the reservoir, walking hard.

In addition to himself, Liu Yi also has his third uncle, fifth uncle and Mr. Wu, and over there are uncles, uncles, Manager Qin and Gu Jian, a huge scene.

At first, there was no movement on the water surface of the reservoir, and Mr. Wu, who was beside Liu Yi, also began to agree with Liu Yi's statement, suspecting that there were not many fish in the reservoir.

But the third uncle smiled on the side, "Now the reservoir area is very large, at first it is not visible, if the fish react violently now, I don't know how many fish are in it, even if the fishing net is torn, it can't be pulled." ”

"Hehe, I didn't expect it to be said inside" Mr. Wu was a little astringent.

"How do I feel heavier and heavier? Do you feel this way? Liu Yi asked if he didn't understand.

"This is normal, when the fishing net is wetted by water, the weight of the net itself will increase, and we will continue to pull it to the side, and the fishing net will be subject to great resistance in the water," the third uncle explained.

However, Liu Yi, who had never fished before, knew where to go, and wondered if the fish had entered the net.

After a long process, it actually took less than twenty minutes. But Liu Yi was also exhausted by the 20 minutes of non-stop exertion, and his hands and feet were weak.

If it weren't for watching the fishing nets in the reservoir slowly get closer, and occasionally a few small fish swimming on the water, I'm afraid he would have given up a long time ago.

Not to mention Liu Yi, look at the uncles who have been engaged in manual labor in the countryside for a long time, I see that they are also blushing and agitated, and the others are not bad, which is quite normal.

The appearance of the other few people did not dare to compliment, and during the netting period, several people kept taking turns to rest, and after the worst, they were also sweating profusely and panting. The most exaggerated is Manager Qin, the whole person looks like he has just been brought out of the water, squatting on the mound on the shore with weakness and regardless of his image, gasping for breath.

Liu Yi couldn't take care of these, as the fishing net slowly retracted, there were still some fish struggling violently on the water surface of the net, and Liu Yi ran over with a large bucket prepared in advance.

may have been frightened by Liu Yi, only to see a 10-pound grass carp in the water, leaping out of the water, flying out of the encirclement of the fishing net, and regaining its life.

"Damn, it's so wild!" Liu Yi looked at a big fish that ran away and could eat them at night, and scolded helplessly.

But after thinking about it, "The entire reservoir is mine, and you can't run out of my Wuzhi Mountain, no matter how much you jump." ”

I don't have time to think about it, the space on the surface of the water in the fishing net is getting smaller and smaller, and you can vaguely see a lot of fish scurrying in the water, and they are not small.

"Raise the net, you stand out of the way, and wait for the fish to struggle to get you covered in water." Seeing that we were all gathered around, my uncle hurriedly reminded us.

Liu Yi has seen the situation of fishing and netting several times, and it happened that they were fishing when they went to his uncle's place to play. But at that time, people were very small and could not help, and as soon as they saw the fishing nets gathered together, they would come together to see the strangeness, but they were often called away by adults.

But I was also very impressed, my uncle raised a lot of fish in their reservoir, and sometimes before the net was closed, you could see a group of all kinds of fish crowded in the fishing net. Everyone who approaches the fish must be prepared, otherwise the whole body will be sprayed by the splash of the fish as it struggles.

Now that Liu Yi has contracted this reservoir, there are not many fish caught in this net, but the position struggling in the net is not weak at all.

The sound of "crackling" fishtails slapping on the surface of the water abounds, like several uncles who have long been wearing water suits, and their heads and necks are still inevitably splashed by water droplets.

But the uncles didn't care about tightening the fishing nets, and the space for the fish in the nets to move was even narrower.

However, Liu Yi and the others obviously miscalculated, none of the fish in it were small, and the few fish caught were at least more than 5 catties.

Here, Liu Yi is going to call his mother. But when he turned around and thought about it, he asked his uncles to maintain the status quo, and asked Gu Jian and his fifth uncle to go directly to the place where the furniture was placed in his hometown.

When the furniture was placed, the wooden bucket (half a bucket, also called a rice bucket in some places) of the uncle's threshing machine was also placed here, and Liu Yi thought that the fish in the reservoir were very large, so he simply used the wooden bucket to hold the fish. Not to mention the two of them, the fifth uncle and Gu Jian are on the other, and Liu Yi is on his own, carrying the wooden bucket to the reservoir!

As expected, the fish in the reservoir are quite large. Several uncles were busy catching the fish in the net into the wooden bucket on the side, and there were only 17 fish at the end of the year, including grass carp, silver carp, and silver carp, which were about 100 catties.

"How can it be so little, is it all fine?" Liu Yi was a little puzzled.

Mr. Wu looked at the time, "Why don't we do it again?" Hit the fish on the other side of the reservoir. ”

"I think it's okay, now in autumn and winter, the water on the other side is deeper, and the temperature is higher. Maybe there's still a fish nest? Uncle analyzed.

Liu Yi looked at the side of the embankment at the other end, and it was indeed as his uncle said, "Okay, let's have another net, I don't believe it, there are not many fish in such a large reservoir." ”

The same netting, the process of pulling the net will not be repeated here. It's just that the water here is deeper now, and it takes more effort.

Stop and go, and by the way, everyone will take a breath. It took half an hour, and the big guy finally pulled the nets together. This time, even Liu Yi was a little unbearable, not to mention everyone's situation.

However, everyone didn't care about their physical exhaustion, and they were attracted by the fish in the water. This time is good, just look at the number of fish in the net is much more than last time.

"Try harder, there are a lot of fish this time, be careful not to let them escape." Manager Qin can only cheer on the side now.

"Be quiet, don't let these fish be scared off by your voice!" Liu Yi saw that there were a lot of fish in the reservoir, and thought that he had finally gained something, so he joked with Manager Qin.

The net tightened tighter and tighter, and the fish in the net struggled harder.

This time, Liu Yi, Gu Jian, and Mr. Wu didn't care that their clothes would be wet by the splash of the fish, and they struggled to grab these wild fresh fish on the edge of the net.

But the idea is good, the technique is not good, except for Liu Yi, who grabbed a few quickly, others can't catch it even if they touch it.

The kind-hearted third uncle told us, "To catch a fish, you should follow the direction of the fish's swimming, and the speed should be fast, and you should throw it into the wooden bucket containing the fish in the vicinity." ”

We suddenly realized that Liu Yi's speed of catching fish has increased greatly, and several people next to him have also begun to harvest. Seeing that they still looked proud, Liu Yi secretly despised it in his heart.

"Hmm!" Liu Yi suddenly touched a fish in the process of catching fish, which was more slippery than other fish. No matter how slippery the fish is, it will catch you.

Thinking about what the third uncle said just now, Liu Yi reached under the fish, quickly thought about it, and then threw it towards the position of the wooden bucket, "Wow, snake!" ”

I saw an animal that was obviously not a fish surface, and Liu Yi screamed before he could see it clearly.

He was bitten by a snake when he was a child, and the so-called once he was bitten by a snake, and he was afraid of the well rope for ten years. Liu Yi is no exception, and he may continue to be afraid for the rest of his life.

However, Gu Jian, who was beside Liu Yi, also had sharp eyes, "This is not a snake, I also saw that it has legs." ”

It's not a fish or a snake, what kind of animal is it? I haven't heard anyone talk about strange things near the Zhongliang Mountain Range, it's some kind of monster.

It seems that everyone here has this idea, and now I don't know if he is powerful, and they all take two steps back in unison. Only the uncle and uncle pulled the ropes on both sides of the fishing net to prevent the thing from escaping.

"I'm going to drag the nets ashore just like that, and see what's in there!" Gu Jian is quite bold.

But there is really no way, Liu Yi thought that there are a lot of people here now, and the animal is not very big. Just arrest him now, so that there will be no accidents in the reservoir in the future.

So with everyone's concerted efforts, everyone was curious, so no one shouted that they were tired, and after a while, the fishing net was dragged to the shore and placed!

Gradually, from the very edge, I caught the fish that was still struggling on the shore, but there was still no sign of the animal.

"The animal's head is a little flattened, and its whole body is not very big, so I think it's hiding among the fish that haven't been caught yet." Gu Jian guessed!

"Then be careful, I'm afraid that it will be too urgent to catch and bite people."

After Liu Yi finished speaking, he also joined the team of catching fish, this fishing is really a big harvest, that is, now there are hundreds of catties of fishing and put it in the wooden bucket, and there are a lot of fishing nets, it seems that after catching, two hundred catties of fish is no problem!

"Come, here, I see it." Gu Jian immediately called us over.

"Why is there only one tail, is this its tail?" On the side, Mr. Wu said.

"I see it burrowing into the fish pile, how does it look like a baby fish!" Gu Jian asked.

"No, we've seen fish and turtles here, and we've never heard of this guy." Liu Yi denied Gu Jian's claim.

"This is really a baby fish, hehe, this is a good thing," Mr. Wu squeezed into the crowd to confirm.

When everyone heard him talk about it, it must have something to do with eating, and they ignored him.

Or Gu Jian was bold, when everyone was sure that it was a baby fish, he stretched out his hand to grab it, or it could be that he was tired of struggling, or it could be that he got to the shore, and after coming into contact with the ground sediment, his body was not so slippery, so Gu Jian grabbed it and put it into the bucket that began to hold the fish.

"How can there be baby fish here?" Liu Yi was even more confused at this time.

"What's so strange about this, the mountain city is a typical karst lava structure geological landform, and the underground river leads in all directions, you must have a karst cave here that leads to the dark river." It's easy to have the opportunity for Manager Qin to show, so don't take the risk to buy his knowledge.

But he really told him, "The source of the stream upstream of this reservoir is a karst cave, and the flow of water is kept at a certain amount of water all year round. ”

"Oh, what's the other place, have you been there?"

Looking at Gu Jian's appearance of wanting to leave immediately, Liu Yi said, "Then dispel the idea of playing, saying that it is a hole, but it is actually a waterhole, which is full of water, and there is no place for anyone to put their feet at all!" ”

“……”

When the fish in the net were finished, the bucket was filled to the brim. Liu Yi saw that there was no way, so he went back and brought some bamboo baskets for vegetables, made one of the same, put it in the bamboo basket, and prepared to kill everyone at night to taste it.

Other fish are not easy to do, or my uncle thought of a way, he took a pair of sealed thin fish nets he brought, and there was a shrinkage on the top of the "catch the fish in, this fishing net mouth is closed, put it into the reservoir and take it tomorrow." ”

After the most Hou Manager Qin, Mr. Wu, and Gu Jian, they left one for each person, and put all the rest into the fine fishing nets and waited for tomorrow, or they would be eaten by the workers who built the houses in the future.

Seeing that it was not too early, the fishing nets were thrown on the shore casually, Liu Yi greeted, "Let's go home, see that everyone is tired and hungry, let's make a wild fish feast at night!" ”
