This time I have been hitchhiking, directly after half a day, because of the convenient transportation, now to the north, two or three days on the line. When I got off the bus, Canghai took me and the second master to find a small village near the river, where the river was frozen into a frozen lake.

There were also many children skating on it, and when they walked to the entrance of the village, Canghai took out a bundle of money and gave it to an old man, and the old man took us to his house to live.

When I went to his house, I found that it was a bungalow on the second floor, and there was also a kang room.

After inquiry, I found that the old man's surname is Zhang, is a fisherman in this village, now in winter, can no big fish, but can still fish, just came to this day, Canghai didn't mention anything, he asked me and the second master, follow Lao Zhang to fish, I see that the sky is almost night, what fish to catch at night? That's not a joke!

The second master didn't understand, but he didn't dare to ask more, everything was decided by the sea, and he was stunned to do it.

So let him inquire, it was better for me to do it myself, so I quietly handed Uncle Zhang a cigarette and said a few words, the old man saw that I was polite and honest.

The old man carried a fishing rod and a fishing basket, but he didn't bring bait.

I'm curious, what's going on, I don't need bait, isn't this learning Jiang Taigong fishing! Idiots know it's hard to catch a fish like this.

He told me: I am not catching an ordinary fish, this is the famous local red herring, this fish may not be seen by many people, it is covered with green face, but the eyes are red like blood, catch it to make soup, make other food, but good.

As he spoke, he whispered to me: Men eat it, just like taking aphrodisiacs.

When I heard it, I was embarrassed, what a fish, so powerful. Now I want to see, and when I go back, I definitely have to ask Canghai, my grandfather and father, whether they have ever been to this village.

When I came to the ice lake, I found that there were other villagers who were setting up tents and fishing nearby, and I had never seen them, let alone heard of red herring.

I helped carry the fish basket and followed Uncle Zhang's buttocks, and I saw him take something out of his pocket, took out a small saucer, and cut a knife on his finger, dripping a few drops of blood. And let me take out the hook and get his blood on it.

This strange way of fishing, so weird, that I saw it for the first time in my life.

Seeing that Uncle Zhang put down the ice cave with a fishing hook, every few minutes, he fished up a green lin, and when he shone it with a flashlight, he found that the fish's eyes were really blood-red.

The fish head and mouth were still eating Uncle Zhang's fish hook, and I wanted to help take down the fish, but Uncle Zhang stopped me.

He looked at my hand and whispered, "This fish is aggressive, like a piranha, don't get bitten, cut off a finger, but the gain outweighs the loss." ”

I was surprised and asked Uncle Zhang: Then you fish with blood, what's the matter? I've never seen this before.

Uncle Zhang glanced at the nearby villagers and whispered to me: In fact, this kind of fishing method did not exist before, it seems that it was 20 years ago, when I was just getting married, I heard that someone came to the village, said that he wanted to raise fish here, and rented the land for three times the money, and said that the fish caught could be given to the villagers for free, and the villagers could also go fishing if they had nothing to do.

You tell me! Twenty years ago, it was still very poor, and it was already lucky to have meat to eat.

The people in the village were very grateful to this person, so one day, the village chief and I went to see the man, and the man was very ordinary and kind, so he taught us the method, saying that this fish is very nourishing to eat, especially in winter. It can help the people in the village to survive the winter, at that time, when it is winter, it is easy to starve to death.

Since we had this fish, we have had a good harvest every year, and now it has become a village custom.

When I heard this, I was puzzled, so I asked: What is the name of that person?

Uncle Zhang shook his head, his face full of regret, he said: I don't know, the village chief may know. I don't eat these fish for a day now, and I feel uncomfortable. It's all addictive.

As he spoke, he took out a knife and cut the fish open, and he also stuffed the fish gall bladder he took out, and he was so relishful that the second master and I had no appetite to look at.

Watching him eat with his mouth full of blood, it's the same as a biochemical movie and a zombie.

Then Uncle Zhang gave me a share, including the second master, I didn't dare to eat it, the second master ate it politely, and the next moment, he came out, covered his neck and squatted on the side and vomited.

The second master wiped the dirt from the corner of his mouth and said: What the hell is this, it's all fishy, why is it delicious, uncle, you can't eat it!

It's even worse than, when he said this, Uncle Zhang scolded angrily: Stinky boy, the food has been ruined, who said that it stinks, you have a problem with your tongue.

Saying that Uncle Zhang gave me a piece of meat, I endured nausea to eat, and found that my tongue was numb, like losing my sense of taste, and then I actually tasted the same taste as sashimi, I was shocked and nodded: It's delicious!

When the second master heard this, he stared, feeling strange, snatched a piece from Uncle Zhang, ate it, or spit it out, he snorted a few times: It's still the same. Luo Ye, is there something wrong with your tongue too!?

I shook my head, and to be honest I didn't know, just now my tongue was numb, and the smell of fish appeared.

Why can't the second master eat it, Uncle Zhang felt sorry for the thrown away meat, scolded, and didn't forget to eat meat in his mouth.

At this time, Canghai came, and Uncle Zhang immediately went over and said it angrily, it seems that he attaches great importance to this fish, and he can't waste it at all.

Uncle Zhang, who was very kind just now, seems to have changed as a different person.

Canghai comforted Uncle Zhang, then looked at me, and then at the second master, he walked over and punched the second master, and the second master screamed in pain: Hai Ye, why did you hit me.

Canghai said: This fish is sacred to Snow Village, and you have to be meticulous when you eat it, and I blame me for not making it clear in advance.

Saying that, he hurriedly bowed and apologized to Uncle Zhang, Uncle Zhang was angry, and the person was angry, and gave some meat to the second master, and the second master ate it with a suffocated face, I saw that he really couldn't eat it, so I secretly gave him a smooth back, pulled it out and quietly put it in his pocket, planning to take it out and throw it away.

The second master nodded to me gratefully and said: It's still good for the master, I don't know what's going on lately, I'm angry, brothers, if you don't follow the rules now, you will directly beat people.

I thought it must be Grandpa Xie's incident, Canghai couldn't get the old man to see him on his deathbed, and he was angry.

I comforted the second master. said: It's still forbearant now, it's already strange that you didn't find that fishing method. The kind uncle who had just been kind suddenly changed his face, like a religious fanatic.

Hai Ye is right, this fish must have something special about Snow Village, let's suffer a dumb loss today!

The second master had to nod aggrievedly and personally apologize to Uncle Zhang, Uncle Zhang eased his face and continued to take us fishing, but he secretly pulled me down and whispered: Don't eat more, you have to vomit at night, everything will be when the people in the village sleep at night, I will tell you again.

Let the second child take it easy, don't offend people, just go around if you have anything, and endure the calm for a while.

Then Canghai went to other villagers, places, and greeted him with a smile, which was very different from the usual dead face to us, but I knew that this was his most false face.
