Locals told us that today we broke the ice and opened the fish, and early in the morning, the head of the fish was sitting on a sleigh to determine the location of the fish for the last time.

Why Catch in the Winter? Because of the thick ice in winter, the lake water is seriously hypoxic, and the fish are almost out of breath, so they are all squeezed on the water surface, and the ice layer is cut a big round opening, and the net is cast, and the fish will drill into the net by themselves.

The effect of this fishing method is 100 times stronger than in summer.

The most famous is Chagan Lake, which opens fish in winter, and tourists from all over the country come to it, and the head fish can be auctioned for millions of sky-high prices.

What is a head fish? The first net went down, and the largest one was fished, which was the head fish. Various folk legends, what eats the head fish to prolong life, immortality, in fact, are all lies, this thing is a fried luxury, rich people buy to taste a fairy, that's it.

I begged him to take us across the lake, and the fish readily agreed, and didn't ask for our money.

Eight big horses pulled the sleigh, hula and panting, and the horseshoe was loaded with barbs and non-slip, and galloped on the ice, and in a short time they reached the opposite shore.

Jumping off the sled, I looked ahead, at least a dozen peaks are connected to each other, intricate, the mountains are not very high, the main reason is that there are too many of them, the search area is too large, where to find this?

There was a small grove at the foot of the mountain, and the snow in it was knee-thick, and Su Yao and I struggled through the woods to the foot of one of the mountains, and looked around with some horror.

I don't know how many years no one has come to this place, the surroundings are quiet, and a wild breath is blowing in the face, not to mention, I am really afraid of meeting wolves here.

I took out the jade gourd from my pocket, recited it several times according to the spell taught by Grandma Hu, and shook the gourd vigorously with my hand, only to see a faint red smoke coming out of it, drifting towards the northwest.

What to do? I can only follow the smoke, this way is really guilty of the old nose, especially in the mountains, the temperature dropped a lot in an instant, the frozen Su Yao kept shivering, I pulled her little hands into the pockets of my down jacket, interlocked each other's fingers, snuggled up to each other to keep warm, there was snow and rotten tree roots everywhere under my feet, and there was not even a decent road.

I grabbed the gourd with one hand and walked in front, letting Su Yao step on my footprints, so that she could also relax, my eyes were fixed on the red smoke, and the surrounding was full of wilderness-like scenes, not to mention people, birds are not here.

Walking and stopping, walking back and forth for an hour, at this time where we were, we had already entered the depths of the mountain, the glacial lake behind had long disappeared, and a thick layer of white fog rose in the mountain, but the red smoke was still drifting to the northeast.

So far? Haven't arrived yet? I looked at Su Yao with some concern, we were both tired enough, and Su Yao was frozen, and my consciousness began to blur, squatting on the ground and crying my nose.

"Hold on, it's almost there." There was a layer of hoarfrost floating on my face, and I wanted to breathe hot air at the little girl, but it turned out to be a cool breeze.

"My frozen ass hurts!" Su Yao cried.

My heart hurts, I simply gritted my teeth and carried the little girl on my back, this extreme cold environment, the most taboo is to stop, as soon as you stop to rest, you will be sleepy, and there will be no one when you sleep.

After walking for nearly an hour, the jade gourd in my hand was frozen and cracked, I didn't hear Su Yao's movement for a long time, and when I looked back, the little girl fell asleep on my back, and I was so frightened that I hurriedly pinched the root of her thigh: "Yaoyao, what are you doing?" Can't you sleep? ”

"It's here, do you see it? It's here! ”

I pointed to the mountains in front of me and shouted, but I didn't arrive at all, I just wanted to give Su Yao some hope.

Su Yao opened her eyes in a daze, and sneezed a few times, not to mention her, my legs that were cold to me at that time were numb, and my lower body was almost unconscious, and if this continued, we would have to freeze to death here.

From morning to noon, the sun came up, the temperature eased a little, I was afraid that I had walked more than ten miles of mountain roads, and finally I was tired and lay down, carrying Su Yao on my back, I was planted in the snow and couldn't get up anymore.

I couldn't find the fox fairy, and the strength to go back was exhausted, so we both lay on the snow, looked at each other, and both smiled.

The mountain road has come to the present, in fact, I know very well in my heart, today, I am afraid that I have to explain here.

My legs were as if they were filled with lead, and I couldn't lift them, and my face was still a little sweaty, but when I lay down, the sweat was all frozen into ice beads.

"Li Zhiwen, wake up, listen to me...... I have a way to keep warm. Su Yao shook me vigorously to wake me up half-asleep.

I squinted at her, "What's the idea?" ”

Su Yao's cheeks flushed, she raised her legs and lay on me, gritted her teeth, and her small mouth came directly.

Don't say it, give her this kiss, I really feel a lot more energetic, and the blood in my whole body begins to burn, and I am panting.

yes, why didn't I think of that?

At that time, I was worried, don't freeze our tongues together, it will be troublesome if you can't pull them apart.

Soon, Su Yao's breathing became short, and after a few minutes, there was a burst of applause in the distance: "What a pair of ice and snow mandarin ducks!" Wonderful, wonderful! ”

Su Yao trembled in fright, hurriedly let me go, wiped the corners of her mouth with the back of her hand, and looked back, only to see a young man in a white robe, hiding behind a tree, looking at us with a smile.

This young man looked like he was in his twenties, he looked like a jade tree in the wind, with flowing hair, and he was indescribably handsome, making fun of him like this, Su Yao's face turned red, and he quickly hid behind me.

I regained some strength, got up with difficulty, looked the young man up and down, and did not feel cold at all in the forty-degree mountains, wearing only a thin white cloth, with the buttons on his chest open, and his collarbones exposed.

If you change to an ordinary person, you will freeze into a popsicle early!

Could it be that he is a relative of Grandma Hu? I hurriedly bowed solemnly to the young man, and said politely: "Senior, is your surname Hu?" ”

The young man put away his smile and looked at me with some alarm: "Where are you from?" What is the Hu family doing? ”

I reported Grandma Hu's name, and Su Yao timidly reported the name of her aunt Su Jinxiu, the young man breathed a sigh of relief, looked at the jade gourd in my hand again, nodded and said, "It turned out to be my own family, come with me." ”

As soon as the words fell, a large thick fog poured out of the young man's body, which was mixed with a faint fishy face, and when the fog disappeared, the others were gone, and a small fluffy fox was sitting on the snow, waving at us.

The little fox's fur was gray and cute, with big eyes like two grapes, full of aura, and a big fluffy tail that shook and waged.

I tasted the sweetness in my mouth, pulled Su Yao to follow, and after a while, the little fox took us to a mountain, the mountain road was paved with bluestone slabs, and it was cleaned very cleanly, obviously the mountain was inhabited.

Led by the little fox, we climbed up the mountain road for a long time before we climbed to the top of the mountain out of breath.

At the top of the hill was a large clearing, cold and cold, and in front of it was a farm compound with a chicken pen with a stove, and a dozen hens were raised, clucking.

The yard was also very clean, there were shovels and brooms in the corner, and a few children were squatting there playing in the snow.

There were several large rooms on the other side of the courtyard, and the little fox led us to one of them, gesturing with his little paws to let us in to warm up.

Su Yao and I pushed open the door, a hot air came to our faces, the room was the layout of a standard rural house in the Northeast, there was a small table on the big soil pit, and on the stove on the side, a pot of hot tea was boiling, with a beeping sound and the fragrance of tea.

The room is only about ten square meters, and it should be a side room for guests to rest.

Closing the door, I didn't say a word, I quickly found two bowls from the cabinet, poured hot tea, climbed onto the earthen kang, Su Yao and I drank tea to warm up, and there was lard halva on the table, probably just out of the pot, and it was still steaming.

The two of us drank tea, ate halva, rested for about ten minutes, and finally relieved ourselves.

Maybe it was because of the fiery experience in the wild just now, Su Yao's little face turned red to the base of her neck, and she lowered her head and didn't dare to look at me.
