He said, "If you tie this cloth bag to the edge of the net, you won't be afraid that you won't be able to catch a fish in the future." ”

Grandpa was skeptical, put away his things, and thanked him again and again. Later, he caught a lot of fish with this bait.

The man sent his grandfather to the place where he had seen the carp before, and said, "Go back, the family should be in a hurry." With that, the man gently patted his grandfather on the shoulder.

Grandpa's body suddenly felt a strong buoyant, and he also felt holding his breath, and hurriedly waved his hands to draw up.

After going ashore, Grandpa returned home soaked. As soon as he entered the house, his father knocked him out of the door with a bamboo broom, and shouted while beating him hard: "You child who doesn't know whether to live or die! Lao Tzu will kill you! Don't come back in the future! ”

The grandfather and the second monk couldn't touch the back of his head, and he was chased and beaten by his grandfather, so he had to escape first. Grandpa asks his neighbors what happened to his father.

The neighbor said that you did not come home for two days and two nights, and your father searched for you everywhere and could not find you, so he was so anxious that he became angry, thinking that you had drowned while fishing. If you come back all of a sudden now, of course he'll be angry. How can there be a reason to spend the night outside without saying a word to the family?

Grandpa was puzzled and said, I didn't spend the night outside, I was delayed a little time catching fish in the old river, how could I not go home for two days and two nights?

Grandpa took advantage of his father's inattention and sneaked back. He casually glanced at the calendar pinned to the wall. The calendar is torn every day, and before my father goes out to run errands and work in the fields, he will check the calendar to see the taboos and predict the weather. Therefore, the calendar of grandpa's house will never be like other people's calendars, sometimes turning over diligently, sometimes forgetting days. Daddy has always been cautious about turning over a slice every day.

I don't know if I don't see it, and I'm shocked when I see it. Grandpa was startled when he caught a glimpse of the calendar. When he went out fishing, he saw that the calendar was the sixth day of the new year, and when he came back from fishing, he saw that the calendar was the eighth day of the new year! The neighbor said that he didn't come back for two days and two nights, and he wasn't lying!

Grandpa kept this matter in his heart and didn't explain it to his father. However, he asked the old people in the village behind his back, and learned that more than a hundred years ago, there was an ancient tomb in Laohe, and the ancient tomb was not in the shape of a tomb, but in the shape of a small wooden house. The owner of the tomb lived in the tomb during his lifetime and liked to raise red carp. Later, the old river will be changed to occupy the place where the ancient tomb is located.

The tomb and its owner vanished overnight, leaving only a piece of loose earth that looked like it had been plowed over.

The workers in charge of the river were surprised, but they did not bother to trace the whereabouts of the tombs. The ancient tomb evaporated out of thin air, but it saved them trouble. So the river was successfully reopened.

Grandpa thought to himself, didn't the ancient tomb sink directly under the river?

Grandpa later went to that place every time he fished, intentionally or unintentionally. But since then, he has never met the man again, nor has he seen a red carp there.

Seeing that I hadn't spoken for a long time, Uncle Li pushed me and asked, "What's wrong with you?" ”

I shook my head and replied, "I remembered a similar legend." ”

Uncle Li asked, "What kind of legend?" ”

"There is a legend of a living man underwater." I said.

Uncle Li didn't understand what I meant, and squinted at me.

I said, "I know the ins and outs of what happened. The water zombies that have disappeared must have returned to the bottom of this pond. The reason why all the fish in the pond disappear overnight is because the water zombies at the bottom of the water eat all the fish. People who have bought fish have eaten bad stomach because those fish have been bitten by zombies, and they will naturally feel uncomfortable eating them. ”
