(When the new book sets sail, when you need support the most, click on the collection ticket, the more the merrier!)
Chen Sanlang in the rain felt a little melancholy inexplicably, and he understood that going home in this state would definitely make his mother worry to death. After thinking about it, he turned his steps and came up to the evening bridge, ready to go home after a quarter of an hour before he could speak.
The rain is thin and dense, falling endlessly on the surface of the river, dotting countless small ripples. There are no ducks, no frogs, and the Jing River is surprisingly quiet today.
With a broken umbrella, Chen Sanlang walked onto the bridge, leaned on the railing, and stared at the upper reaches of the river, he hoped that there would be a canopy boat rowing down, and the boat lady who held the pole must be very beautiful.
"Sad, when has it been, still thinking about this?"
I cursed in my heart.
Someone came to the bridge, and he quickly held his chest high, carried one hand behind his back, and pretended to watch the scenery in the rain. It is said that those literati love this mouthful, on the hazy bridge of spring rain, affectionate paragraphs, and when they have brewed enough, they immediately open their mouths to chant poems-
Now Chen Sanlang can open his mouth, but he can't make a sound, so he has to purse his lips tightly and make a deep shape.
It's a pity that the spring is very cold, the umbrella is broken, the clothes on the body are slowly wet, and under the wind and rain, the whole body begins to tremble, and the cold shiveres.
When the passers-by saw it, they couldn't help but cover their mouths and smile:
"Isn't this Chen Jiazaburo? I heard that he applied for the children's exam again this year, but somehow, he came to the bridge to get drenched in the rain......
"Maybe I'm afraid that I won't be able to pass the test, and I'm under a lot of pressure, so I'm stupid outside......"
The whispering voice, drifting by, and then moving away.
"San Lang, your mother is looking for you everywhere, Mr. Yang is here, but you are ...... here"
The second group of passers-by was Aunt Huang from the house next door, and her voice sounded like a gong.
When Chen Sanlang heard this, he secretly complained, so he nodded and said that he understood.
Aunt Huang saw that he had a blank face, so she sighed: "What a child, I was stupid in the exam, pitiful." ”
After that, he went to take care of himself.
Chen Sanlang's forehead was bruised, and he wanted to tear his throat and shout: "You are stupid, your whole family is stupid......"
But he can't speak now, and it's really stupid to stand on it, holding a broken umbrella, and pretending.
So he angrily got off the bridge and went under the willow tree by the river.
I remember that it was here that the red carp were released, and I felt in a trance when I revisited the old place......
Bang bang bang!
Suddenly, the waves on the surface of the river rolled and there was a loud sound.
Chen Sanlang was stunned for a moment, and stretched his neck to look.
I saw the waves sweeping in, and a touch of red appeared, and the figure was very lively.
"Red carp!"
Chen Saburo opened his mouth wide.
Sou!
The red carp in the water seemed to hear his silent shout, as fast as an arrow, and suddenly broke through the waves and flew over.
It's really going to fly!
Chen Sanlang didn't know why, subconsciously threw away the broken umbrella, stretched out his hands to pick it up, and closed it. The next moment, the red carp fell into the palm of its hand impartially.
What's going on?
Chen Sanlang was suspicious: The fish is out of the water, but it will die. Since he knew that he would die, why did the red carp jump ashore automatically and commit such a suicide act?
Ever since the red carp repaid the favor and sent out the mysterious little sword, he understood that the other party was definitely not an ordinary fish.
Could it be that it is unusual: you can live without water?
However, right now, the red carp in the palm of his hand kept opening and closing his mouth, looking a little suffocating and uncomfortable.
"Looks like I'm overthinking. ”
Chen Sanlang laughed, quickly leaned down, held the red carp into the water, and said secretly in his heart: "Fish, fish, you better go back to the river and swim freely, don't be caught again in the future." ”
But the strange thing is that when the red carp first came into contact with the river, it became very nervous, and its two pectoral fins shook vigorously, desperately stirring up the splash.
Chen Sanlang just let go and stood up.
Sou!
The red carp leaped up again.
No, what kind of fame?
Chen Sanlang was puzzled, and in a hurry, he didn't have time to think about it, so he quickly stretched out his hands to catch it.
The red carp fell into his palm, as if it fell into a warm embrace, so unhesitating, uncomplaining.
Chen Sanlang's whole person was a little stunned, and he felt that his brain was not enough.
In two lifetimes, I have never encountered or heard of such a thing.
Fortunately, there was no one around at this time, otherwise if someone saw it, I was afraid that my jaw would fall to the ground in shock.
In an instant, Chen Sanlang seemed to understand something, stomped his feet, turned around and ran away, and ran home with the red carp in his hand.
Not long after he left, waves rolled up on the surface of the Jing River, and the sound was even louder, faintly carrying a black wind. A shadow swam in the wind and waves, as if searching for something. After searching for a long time in the waters under the bridge, and finding nothing, it dived into the water again and went downstream.
Chen Sanlang rushed home in a hurry, and when he passed through the hall, he saw his mother talking to Mr. Yang, but he didn't stop to say hello, and rushed to his room.
But there was no water in the basin.
"Water, where is the water?"
He rushed out again with the porcelain basin, and almost bumped into his mother's arms when he came over.
Chen Wang's suspicions were numerous: "Yuan'er, what are you doing?"
Chen Sanlang didn't answer, he found the well in the front yard in a hurry, hurriedly picked up a bucket of water, and poured it into the basin.
When the fish got water, it immediately began to swim nimbly, its tail wagging and no longer nervous.
Chen Sanlang breathed a sigh of relief.
"Yuan'er, what happened?"
Chen Wang followed in a panic, a little frightened.
Chen Sanlang hurriedly said: "Mother, the child bought a fish to raise, and broke the basin on the way, so I had to hurry home to find water." If you lose the number of rudeness, please don't blame your mother. ”
A very reasonable explanation.
What's more, a quarter of an hour had passed, and he could finally speak.
It feels so good.
Chen Wang said with some reproach: "I see. You are really, for a fish, your whole body is wet, you are weak, what if you catch a cold and get sick? ”
Chen Sanlang was resigned, thinking to himself: This is not an ordinary fish!
“...... Oops, you quickly changed into clean clothes and went out of the hall to talk to Mr. ”
Chen Sanlang first put the porcelain basin on the ground, thought about it, and felt that it was inappropriate, for fear of being offended by the chickens and ducks raised at home, so he picked it up and put it on the low wall.
Then I went back to my room to change my clothes and went out to see my husband.
"Meow!"
After a while, a cat meow sounded, and soon a large cat poked its head out. It was curled up under the eaves, and its sharp eyes saw the red carp swimming in the porcelain basin.
Cats are naturally the most fish-eaters, and when they can bear it, they immediately slide and jump down lightly and land next to the porcelain basin.
The red carp in the basin did not feel the danger imminent, and still swam gracefully.
The cat stretched out its right front paw, trying to reach into the water and grab the red carp and eat it.
Crash!
The red carp flicked its tail, rolled out a splash, and watered the cat's face, and the water was quite wolf.
The flower cat was taken aback and quickly retracted its claws, but soon it reacted, looked a little annoyed, whined in a low voice, arched its waist, and attacked at any time.
The red carp suddenly opened its mouth and spewed out a water arrow, which accurately hit the door of the cat again.
At this time, the cat was furious, and could not imagine that a small fish, the meat in its mouth, dared to play with itself, and immediately raised its claws and scratched it fiercely into the water.
Boom!
The small body of the red carp twisted slightly, and most of the basin of water seemed to be manipulated, forming a wave, and pressing its head and face towards the cat.
This is not the previous splash, water arrow.
The flower cat felt some terrifying momentum contained in the small waves, and was so frightened that the fur of his whole body exploded, and he screamed, quickly turned around, jumped onto the roof, and fled.
- As a result, a female cat of the Chen family that had been raised for half a year ran away from home and never returned. After the old housekeeper Uncle Hua couldn't find the cat, he scolded: "Spring is the spring of cats, this guy who can't be raised is most likely running away with a wild male cat......
Crash!
The mid-air waves fall back into the basin, and the red carp swim happily.
Mr. Yang came to the door today, in fact, there is no big deal, he just wants to check the student's exam homework and how well he is prepared.
However, Chen Sanlang looked absent-minded, and replied without a word, and asked him to compose on the spot, and the articles he wrote were a little incorrect.
Mr. Yang shook his head: This student, there is no hope for this year's children's examination. However, with the foreshadowing of the previous white papers, no matter how disappointed you are, it will not be enough.
He politely declined the Chen family's invitation to stay for dinner, routinely admonished a few words, sighed, and went back to the private school.
As soon as Mr. left, Chen Sanlang hurried to the front yard and saw that the red carp was safe and sound, so he put his mind at ease - it was said that when he faced Mr. Yang's assessment just now, he suddenly thought that he had a cat at home, and he was very worried, for fear that the cat would come and eat the fish, but it was funny.
But now it seems that this did not happen.
It is not appropriate to raise fish in porcelain pots. After a little thought, Chen Sanlang simply picked up the red carp and put it into his own well.
The well water is cool, the red carp is quite happy, and the red figure is very lively.
Chen Saburo was happy for it.
Since then, the red carp has lived in this well.
The boy test is approaching, Chen Sanlang has not gone to the martial arts hall in the past few days, and chooses to study behind closed doors at home, but every morning when he gets up, he will tie up the horse for a period of time - as for "Frightening Fingers", cough, don't practice for the time being, so as not to hurt your fingers.
In the morning, he walked in the morning, simulated writing articles in the afternoon, and read books in the evening. When he was tired of reading in the study, he took the scroll out of the yard and went to the well to see the red carp.
At this time, the red carp will definitely appear to the surface. It seems to like to listen to Chen Sanlang read, and whenever he listens to the sound of reading, he gently shakes his head and tail, and makes a slight sound of water.
Chen Sanlang observed this phenomenon and felt strange: Could it be that this fish has become a spirit, has wisdom, and can understand and read?
But in that case, how could it be caught by fishmongers in the first place, and it almost became a meal on the plate.
If you don't understand, just continue to read it, and read it to a fish, as it is to a confidant, it is also a good thing.
Time flies, a few days pass in a blink of an eye, and tomorrow, the first pass of the children's examination will begin.
