Chapter 160: Ducks and Rabbits Gather, Old Turtles Join in the Fun
"Fan quickly, fan all the smoke into the cave." Zhang Qinghe crossed his waist with one hand, stood next to him and instructed his brother to work again and again.
“.” Zhang Qinghu, who was fanning the wind, looked at him, and kept silently thinking about his younger brother in his heart, and finally pretended that he didn't hear it.
They had plugged up the burrow before, and then dug it up a little, making it difficult for the small hare to get out.
At the exit of the cave on the other side, Zhang Ze buried a throwing net, and when the hare ran out, it would rush directly into the throwing net and be caught.
Smoking is a long job, and the hare's burrows are so extensive that it takes some time to completely cover the burrows.
Standing at the entrance of the cave and waiting for most of the time, suddenly a gray shadow flashed out of the cave, and then hit his head on the throwing net, it was a large fat hare.
"Caught, caught, caught!" Tong Yuanhang looked very excited, obviously there is no shortage of meat to eat now, but this will be inexplicably happy.
Perhaps participating in the process of catching hares gave him a sense of accomplishment.
And Zhang Ze laughed after seeing this hare that was obviously larger: "Luckily, there may be a nest of hares in this cave, and the one I chased just now is smaller than this one." ”
"Really? Then it looks like we'll get one for each family when we go back! Tong Yuanhang also smiled.
"It doesn't matter if it's not enough, since there are hares here, there must be other locations as well. I'll look for a cave later, and I'm sure I'll be able to catch a lot of it by smoking. ”
Thanks to the development of information in later generations, there are all kinds of videos on the Internet that allow Zhang Ze to think of this easy way to catch hares.
After a while, the hares that could not stand it in the cave ran out one by one, and they caught a total of four.
Zhang Ze tied the rabbit's legs with the fishing line he brought and put them in a bamboo basket he brought over.
However, four was not enough for so many of them, and seeing that the women had not yet picked the bayberry, they continued to look for other caves.
After walking about twenty meters above, they found a burrow that was suspected to be a rabbit.
The crowd then dispersed, looking for other nearby cave exits and sealing off any remaining caves.
In the same way, this time they caught three rabbits, a total of seven is enough.
After going back, the baskets carried by the women were also full of bayberry, and they had a full harvest today.
Mother Zhang looked at the seven fat rabbits, and suddenly felt a little emotional.
If Zhang Ze also knew how to catch rabbits before, would the family be able to eat meat once in a while?
But just think about it, it's going to be a big collective, and basically no one will catch these openly.
There may be in private, but if it is discovered, the consequences can be very serious.
The group talked and laughed back, Zhang Ze and a few people supported the boat to send the women back to their respective fishing boats, and then held the boat to the aquatic grass to see if there were any wild ducks.
The boat slowly approached, and everyone took out their slingshots and prepared them.
However, before they could get closer, a small flock of mallards suddenly quacked and took off in panic.
Needless to say, several people reacted quickly and hurriedly picked up the slingshot and aimed
Eight or nine marbles suddenly flew out from different positions, and with a few screams, three flying wild ducks were hit and fell into the water with a thud.
"Haha, I hit!" Zhang Qinghe excitedly immediately picked up the bamboo pole and rowed it to the place where the wild duck fell.
Zhang Ze and Tong Junqiang did the same thing, they each hit one, and the rest were all missed.
I can see the marbles I hit clearly, and there are no cases where two or three people hit one at the same time, so it is not possible for two people to share one.
"It's a pity, the wild ducks are alarmed!" Tong Yuanhang, who was empty, looked at the wild ducks flying in the aquatic grass and said regretfully.
The screams of the wild ducks here made all the wild ducks hiding in the reeds of the aquatic plants fly in fright.
Now that they're flying away, they can't hit with a slingshot anymore.
Zhang Ze grabbed the water and couldn't maintain his body, and was hit in the abdomen and seriously injured a wild duck.
The slingshot made by a few of them is very powerful, and if it hits the vital point of a person's head, it can directly kill a person, let alone a wild duck.
Zhang Ze was satisfied with the wild ducks put them into the bamboo basket on the boat, and then said: "There are a lot of wild ducks here, let's take a look at the aquatic plants, maybe we can find a lot of wild duck eggs." ”
"I'm going to have to go in and have a look." The few people who didn't hit the wild duck were unwilling to go back like this, they were originally trying to find out if there were any duck eggs, so they continued to row close to the aquatic grass.
Zhang Ze came to the edge of the aquatic weed, and when he used a bamboo pole to pry open the aquatic weed, he accidentally found an alarmed soft-shelled turtle swimming to the bottom of the water in a panic.
"Everyone, pay attention, there are soft-shelled turtles here, be careful, maybe you can catch one or two."
Hearing his words, Tong Yuanhang turned around and went back without saying a word.
Zhang Qinghe was stunned, and asked strangely: "Ah Hang, what are you doing here?" ”
"Take the net! The soft-shelled turtle is not fast, and it may be possible to copy it with a net. ”
"yes, I'll get it too!"
was reminded by Tong Yuanhang, and the rest of the people didn't care about looking for duck eggs, so they all went back to get the net.
Zhang Ze is no exception, because he also feels that what his brother-in-law said is right.
But for the sake of conservatism, he killed the ducks directly on the boat, washed the duck liver, cut it into small pieces, and brought it with the fishing rod.
It is impossible to say that the soft-shelled turtle spirit is not flexible, and sometimes it is flexible and cannot be caught at all with a copy net.
Sometimes he moves slowly, and he can pull up from the stream with a branch.
He had seen both situations, but he only felt that the soft-shelled turtle was very metaphysical in escaping.
The soft-shelled turtles hiding under the aquatic weeds are the kind that are difficult to catch, they are alarmed, they can escape directly to the bottom of the water, and they may not be caught on the boat.
He brought a fishing rod with him, and he used it to catch it if he couldn't catch it.
As Zhang Ze imagined, it was difficult for them to find soft-shelled turtles when the aquatic plants were dense.
And pulling away the aquatic weeds will alarm the soft-shelled turtle, causing it to run away without reacting, and as a result, a group of people have no harvest.
However, Zhang Zhenghong was lucky and found a nest of wild duck eggs, three of which were there.
Seeing this, Zhang Ze didn't continue to look for it, and directly took out a fishing rod and hung it on the wild duck liver to fish for soft-shelled turtles.
Soft-shelled turtle is a kind of aquatic product, and there are also baits in the magic bait space, and the price is still high, and it takes two hundred experience points to buy it, but he has no idea of redeeming it.
For a while, Zhang Ze remembered that the soft-shelled turtle was very valuable, because it was said that the soft-shelled turtle was very replenishing, and it might be sold for two or three yuan or even four or five yuan per pound when selling it near the hospital.
But this can only be sold under special circumstances, and it is not sold quickly and time-consuming.
If the price of selling aquatic products in large quantities is not high, this thing belongs to no one in the countryside.
When you are reluctant to use oil, the taste of soft-shelled turtle meat is actually very ordinary, and it is not delicious because of its earthy smell.
So Zhang Ze only plans to catch one or two and take them home to eat, and he doesn't plan to sell them.
Just waited for most of the day without moving, which made him hesitate in his heart whether to exchange for magic bait to fish?
Anyway, the bamboo basket is on the boat, and the duck liver is also put in it, and it will be taken out so that no one will find out.
But after thinking about it, he decided not to change it yet, and took out all the duck liver, which was only a little bit, and threw it at the position of the fish hook to make a nest, hoping to attract the soft-shelled turtle to come.
He didn't plan to fish more, just hit one.
continued to wait, the rest of the turtles were not caught, but a lot of wild duck eggs were found, and there were even small wild ducks caught.
However, after playing with it, it was released, except for Tong Yuanhang, who grabbed a few bamboo baskets and prepared to take them back to raise, the rest of them were released.
There is no yard at home, and the neighbors next to it are not familiar with each other, who knows if the ducks will suddenly disappear after they are raised.
Zhang Qinghe saw that Zhang Ze had not moved for a long time, so he shouted: "Aze, forget it!" If you can't catch the soft-shelled turtle, you can still come and look for duck eggs, otherwise we will take all the duck eggs. ”
"I'm not interested in duck eggs, you guys." Zhang Ze waved his hand, but before he finished speaking, the fishing rod in his hand suddenly sank, and the pull force was quite strong, as if he had caught the earth.
But Zhang Ze knew very well that his fish hook was on the upper layer of the water, and it was impossible to hang to the bottom.
He immediately raised his hand to stab the fish, the tip of the fishing rod made a "whoosh" sound, and the hook pierced into the mouth of the soft-shelled turtle, and it continued to struggle in pain, and the fishing rod began to shake and tremble, as if something was pulling.
"Damn, it's really for you, it can't be any kind of fish, right?" Zhang Qinghe happened to witness this scene and complained speechlessly.
"Hehe, it's really a soft-shelled turtle." From the feel, you know that it is not a fish, and the fish can run immediately when it is hooked, even if it is piled, it is not such a feel.
Now he feels very heavy, and the strength is a little bit, it is estimated that he has caught an old turtle!
Luckily, even if the old turtle can't sell it at a price, he can put it in the space first, and the value of giving it away will be very high when the name is loud in the future.
Zhang Ze lifted the fishing rod hard, and the fishing wheel continued to reel in the line, and soon a huge soft-shelled turtle broke out of the water.
The man with the stretched head looked inferior, and the woman blushed when he saw it.
Zhang Ze gestured, and then breathed a sigh of relief, his talent was better.
Tong Yuanhang glanced at it, and then silently withdrew his gaze.
ZHANG Qinghe. With envy on his face, this expression made Zhang Ze feel that something was wrong.
He must be envious that he caught a big turtle, right?
Shaking his head and throwing out the messy thoughts, Zhang Ze began to fish for soft-shelled turtles seriously.
The soft-shelled turtle lies on the surface of the water with its mouth open, and the hook can be seen piercing the corners of its mouth.
It swayed slowly on all fours, trying to escape, but it was pulled to the surface with much less force than it was in the water.
Zhang Ze just closed the line, easily pulled it to the side of the boat, and then picked up the net.
After a few strokes, I found that this soft-shelled turtle was a little big, and the net was a little small.
Seeing that the hook was very firm, he simply grabbed the fishing line with one hand and lifted the soft-shelled turtle directly.
Looking at the soft-shelled turtle that was mentioned to the space, he raised his eyebrows, this amount is very sufficient! I feel more than fifteen pounds, or even twenty pounds.
I don't know if such a big old turtle is not popular on Hong Kong Island, why don't you use this old turtle to please your grandparents after going there?
Looking around, Zhang Ze knew that he had to find an opportunity to put this old turtle into the space, and now put it in the bamboo basket first.
