Chapter 11: Playing the Trap and Fishing
The little guy is in good condition, and although Lin Shan is able to enter the space in the village; Considering that the little guy is too young now, he hasn't even opened his eyes, so Lin Shan didn't stay in the space to take care of the little guy much, and he has other things to do now, such as going fishing. As for the Wang Ba soup that makes up for the little guy, the soft-shelled turtle in the space is still too small, although the little soft-shelled turtle in the space is still quite willing to grow, but it is still unrealistic to do it immediately.
Carrying a hoe out of the door, he began to dig earthworms in his small vegetable garden, where the soil is relatively damp and soft, and he usually digs earthworms there when fishing in the forest mountains.
Carrying fishing rods, buckets, and a small bench, Lin Shan sandwiched a glass of water and wore a straw hat to start his fishing trip; This is also the standard preparation for Lin Shan's usual fishing, and this is also for his own lunch or dinner.
Outside the village is the reservoir, although this reservoir does not raise fish, but such a large reservoir must still have a lot of fish; The reservoir is more than 20 years old, and the deepest part is said to be about five meters. Although many people in Lin Shan and the village often go to the reservoir to swim, they also know that swimming in such a reservoir really needs to be paid attention to.
"Lin Shan, you haven't taken a condom up and down the mountain these days?" As soon as she walked to the entrance of the village, a chubby middle-aged woman asked, "If you catch a rabbit under the trap and remember it to me, my son will come back from vacation soon, and I will make up for him." ”
"Second aunt, when will Gangzi come back?" Lin Shan nodded, although he didn't necessarily have to go up the mountain to hunt pheasants and catch rabbits every time, but if Lin Shan got serious, he would definitely be able to gain something within a week, after all, he was mixed up in the mountains from small to big, Lin Shan can really be said to be a relatively good hunter, but there are not many animals on the mountain now, and Lin Shan may not be able to show his skills.
"There are two more days, either the first or the second will come back." The chubby middle-aged woman Xu Cuilanla is Lin Shan's second aunt, and her son is also the second college student in the village, which is also her pride.
"Okay, I'll go up the mountain this afternoon." Lin Shan nodded, this is also his usual way to make extra money occasionally, after all, he just relies on a salary of less than a thousand, even in the countryside where the cost of living is very low, that little money is not enough.
"Wild rabbits and pheasants are fine, I'll give you the money first, you remember to give it to me! If the rabbit can't catch it, the pheasant will do. "Xu Cuilan is the first to start, generally the rabbits beaten by Lin Shan are family prices for the people in the village, and although Longquan Village is not rich, but now the average family is not bad at buying meat; And Xu Cuilan's giving money in advance is a trust in Lin Shan's craftsmanship, and she is also worried that the people in the village will do it, generally once the people in the village know that Lin Shan has hit the wild goods, then they must buy it immediately.
Birds are like partridges, and animals are like rabbits; Hare meat has the saying of "the vegetarian in meat", and lean meat accounts for more than 95%; And the hare meat is delicate and mellow, delicious, contains a variety of nutrients required by the human body, hare meat is not only nutritious, but also is a very beneficial medicinal tonic to the human body.
Lin Shan, who smiled bitterly, could only take the seventy yuan that Xu Cuilan stuffed, the rabbit he beat was at this price, although he would definitely be able to sell it for a high price when he took it to the township, but Lin Shan was not willing to run more, of course, the people in the village were embarrassed to ask for too high a price. As for the size of the rabbit, it is generally not too outrageous and will not be weighed at all.
Hares live alone or in pairs and are generally shy animals; The hare is alert by nature, sensitive to hearing and vision, flees quickly, hides closely, has strong fecundity, and although there are many enemies, there are few animals that catch it, and the forests on the mountain have also been deep in recent years, and there are still a lot of rabbits in the mountains.
As for the way to catch rabbits, there are many ways, such as dogs, lower clips, etc.; However, Lin Shan now has a dog, but Xiaobai's eyes have not yet opened, and qualified hunting dogs also need a certain amount of training; As for the lower clamp, although it is very good, it is easy to pinch people, although it is not necessarily how dangerous, although the back mountain is basically rarely visited now, but Lin Shan feels that it is still the safest to stabilize the lower cover.
Because the habit of rabbits is to take the old way, so you only need to know some of the rabbit's action routes; As for the rabbit set, it is also very simple, at least for Lin Shan, he often puts it down.
The rabbit set is made of thin wire, a thin wire dozens of centimeters long, one end is a live buckle, and the other end is fixed on the ground with an iron nail or a thin wooden stick.
Because rabbits will only follow the old path, as long as they do not destroy the traces left by rabbits, then they will not startle snakes; Leave the cover in the afternoon and wait until dawn to go up the mountain, so that there is still a certain certainty. Although it is not necessary to be able to lasso the rabbit every time, but with a few more traps and a certain amount of experience, the success rate can still be guaranteed for a period of time.
Taking over the work of hunting rabbits, although Lin Shan is the god of the mountain, he needs to protect this mountain, but this does not mean that Lin Shan must ensure the life of every creature in this mountain; As long as it is not overkill, there is no problem at all, and ordinary hares are not rare protected animals, and if they are caught, they will be caught; Whether it was to sell it for money or to make a sacrifice by himself, Lin Shan didn't have any pressure.
This forest leads to the mountains not far away, where there are more creatures; However, Lin Shan was not familiar with that side, he only needed to know that there were actually some animals in this mountain forest now. hares, pheasants, and possibly even wild boars; As for the deep mountains in the distance, Lin Shan knows that there are several groups of monkeys, and there are even villagers who say that they are not like the four, in fact, Lin Shan is estimated to be the existence of roe deer.
In short, the natural environment of this piece of mountain forest is still good, although many people are now criticizing environmental protection, etc., but the work of returning farmland to forest still has good results. At least now some animals have finally survived the crisis, and although they are surviving more difficult now, they can still survive, and there is room for them to survive.
Collecting money is naturally to do things, it is imperative to go up the mountain and down the set, but now there is no need to be so anxious, and then go up the mountain in the afternoon, the main goal of Linshan now is to go fishing, add food to yourself, whether it is braised crucian carp or crucian carp soup Linshan is more proficient, now what you need is to see the size of the crucian carp you have caught.
I found a shade, and of course, the most important thing is to choose a place; Fishing is particular, Lin Shan does not want to bask in the sun is one thing, at this time, crucian carp is more often in the shade of the tree, so that Lin Shan can also ensure more harvest.
Caught a few handfuls of rice sprinkled with sesame oil, which is the simplest soil bait, such rice is sprinkled to make a nest, that is, to attract more fish to gather, which is also to be able to fish better.
Arrange the rod and tie the line; Don't underestimate Lin Shan's twenty yuan fishing rod, I remember that when I was young, I cut a relatively long bamboo, plus spend five cents to buy a fishing hook, this is to be able to fish. Now that such fishing gear is considered high-level, Lin Shan feels that he is just here to fish for crucian carp or something, which is enough; There must be big fish in the reservoir, but after all, no one raises fish, and the fish here are more wild fish. In fact, the taste of wild fish is better, not the rough and tasteless meat of farmed fish; Wild crucian carp grow naturally, and they are constantly active, so the meat quality is even better.
After putting on the earthworm, adjusting the float, and putting down the small bench, Lin Shan sat down and waited patiently for the fish to take the bait; Fishing requires patience as well as quietness. Lin Shan is a person who can endure loneliness, so it is obviously very good to fish alone.
Seeing that the float was moving slightly, Lin Shan was not moved at all, he knew that this was a small fish making trouble there; Fishing is skillful, and experienced people can tell whether a fish has bitten or not by the movement of the float, and it is also possible to basically determine the type of fish that has bitten.
After waiting for more than ten minutes, the float sank violently without much movement; Lin Shan immediately came to his senses, and Lin Shan, who was holding the fishing rod tightly, also stood up, and he also ensured that the fishing rod in his hand did not move much. He knew that there should be a fish biting the hook now, but he couldn't rush now, wait until the fish was completely bitten to death.
The floating float that suddenly sank rose again, and Lin Shan thought it should be a crucian carp; The fish bite hook is sent upwards to drift, and some are called support drifting, and this is the main characteristic of the crucian carp bite. Of course, sending drift is not the patent of crucian carp, grass carp has the habit of sending drift to the scum, but crucian carp is more obvious.
After three consecutive sinking drifts and drifting, Lin Shan is about to start; When the fish float sank again, Lin Shan concentrated all his attention, and when the float slowly floated again, Lin Shan quickly pulled the rod directly.
The fishing rod bent up sharply, and the end of the fishing rod was heavy, and Lin Shan naturally knew that he had caught the fish thoroughly; When the palm-sized crucian carp was pulled out of the water, this time Lin Shan was not worried about the fish coming off the hook.
Remove the crucian carp from the hook, throw it into the bucket filled with water, put on the earthworm again, and simply wash your hands at the water's edge, after all, both earthworms and crucian carp have a fishy smell; But since a fish has already been hooked, it is not a problem to believe in the second and third ones.
