Chapter 14 Fishing for eels ()
After planting fifteen watermelon seeds, Luo Hui was about to go to the pond to touch snails with Gao Ge when Niuniu ran over. The little girl grabbed his hand and said, "Uncle Xiaohui, don't talk to grandpa."
Let’s touch the snails and let’s go fishing for eels, shall we?”
"Fishing eels, that's good." Luo Hui immediately became more excited when he heard about this. He had seen this matter described in several online native articles before, and found it quite interesting. In fact,
, Luo Hui came up with the idea of going to live in the countryside, which had a lot to do with reading too much local literature.
"Then let's dig up earthworms now."
"Well, you take me there... I'm sorry, old man Gao. I'll fish for snails with you tomorrow. Now I'm going to fish for eels with Niuniu."
Luo Hui left his eyes open, blew his beard, and sang loudly with his cheeks bulging. Under the leadership of the little girl, he dug out some earthworms with a hoe, put them in a white porcelain cup, and sprinkled some charcoal ash inside.
You can't crawl out. Earthworms are used as bait, as well as small frogs, some small insects, snail meat and clam meat, etc., can be used as bait to catch eels.
"Niuniu, do you have fishing gear for fishing eels?" Luo Hui asked after digging up the earthworms. In fact, although he has never experienced many things in the countryside, he still knows something about it. As the saying goes, he has never eaten swan meat.
I've seen swans fly.
"Of course." Niu Niu said, as if she were doing some magic, and a small bamboo stick appeared in her hand. No one knew where she had hidden it just now.
This piece of bamboo stick is a homemade fishing rod, specially used for fishing eels. A short piece of silk thread is wrapped around the bamboo stick at one end, a fishing hook is attached to the other end, and there is a weight, and the fishing rod is simply made.
"Niuniu, can you catch eels?" Luo Hui took the small fishing rod and looked at it and asked. Although he had learned about eel fishing in books, he had no practical experience after all.
"I know how to fish, but I can't catch it." Niu Niu pouted.
"Why is this?" The little girl's words were inconsistent, and Luo Hui felt strange.
"The eel is very strong in the hole and I can't catch it," Niu Niu said helplessly.
"..."
Luo Hui wore a straw hat and carried a bucket with fishing rods and earthworms in one hand. He held Niuniu, who also wore a straw hat, with the other hand and headed into the fields. He met several dogs in the village along the way.
.
This reminded Luo Hui that he had purchased the Chinese Pastoral Dog Speech from the system. Luo Hui tried to get closer and communicate with them, but unexpectedly, these vicious dogs, which were still fierce in the morning, suddenly appeared when Luo Hui approached.
One by one, they suddenly seemed to have encountered ghosts. They pinched their tails and disappeared without a trace. This made Luo Hui feel like he was in a fog. What on earth is going on?
Continuing forward, he met several more dogs. Luo Hui also tried to communicate with them, but the situation was the same as usual. All the dogs raised their heads to look at him, then spread their legs and turned around, leaving only one dog.
Yunyan and Luo Hui are even more confused now. Could it be that the two hundred and fifty thousand spent by my brother just played a role in scaring the dog? Alas, when old man Gao brings the puppy from the villagers, what will happen again?
Give it a try.
"Uncle Xiaohui, what's wrong with you?" Niuniu noticed Luo Hui's depression and asked with concern, "Don't you like fishing for eels? If you don't like it, let's go back and touch snails with grandpa."
"No, no, how come uncle doesn't like fishing for eels?" Luo Hui was touched by the little girl's concern. He shook his head repeatedly and thought to himself, even if he was really tricked by the system, what could he do? He couldn't find it.
Its trouble, hey, forget it, let’s catch eels first.
Luo Hui has always had an open mind, and when he thought about it like this, just like he had abandoned Xiao Ruolan some time ago, he immediately forgot about his unhappiness.
The paddy fields in Gaojia Village are basically concentrated in one field ridge. This field ridge is on the east side of Jianma Lake and covers 700 to 800 acres. However, these paddy fields are not on the same level. Their locations are high and low.
There are ups and downs, and some even have hills and hills gradually rising up the mountainside, forming a staircase shape.
This is the legendary terraced field.
When Luo Hui drove to the village, his attention was mainly focused on Jianma Lake, so he did not carefully observe the surrounding scenery. At this moment, he looked at the well-proportioned terraces, the quiet lake, and the mysterious scenery in the distance.
The island in the middle of the lake, then looking around at the surrounding mountains and green trees, admiring the picturesque natural scenery, breathing in the fresh and unparalleled air, Luo Hui felt like he was getting drunk.
After waking up from drunkenness, Luo Hui had an impulse to use a camera to freeze these beautiful pictures and send them to space and the world, so that more people can appreciate what is the beauty of the countryside and what is the bigness.
The beauty of nature...yes, I must take a photo and post it online.
"Uncle Xiaohui, let's start fishing quickly... Look, the fish balls and the others have been fishing there for a long time." Niu Niu tugged on Luo Hui's lapel and pointed to the field not far away.
Luo Hui came back to his senses and followed Niu Niu's fingers. Sure enough, in the field, a group of little kids were lying on the edge of the field, having a great time fishing. One of them happened to catch a fish, and the kids suddenly cheered.
Luo Hui felt itchy in his heart when he saw it, and said to Niu Niu, "Then let's fish quickly."
Monopterus eels mostly grow in lakes, ponds, rivers, ditches, rice fields and other places with water and mud, and live in caves. They live in caves during the day, and basically only come out to hunt at night. It is precisely because eels live in caves during the day
It’s in a cave, so the first point when fishing for eels is to find the eel cave.
The eel caves are easy to find, they are the black ones on the mud surface.
The two of them lowered their heads and searched beside the field ridge, because there were hills of fields on both sides of the field ridge, so one person was responsible for one side. After a while, Niu Niu found a hole as thick as her thumb. The little girl danced with joy, her expression was like this hole.
The eel in the urn is already the turtle in the urn.
Luo Hui was busy clumsily putting earthworms on the fishhook, lying down by the hole, and under the guidance of Niu Niu's instructor, he lowered the fishhook into the water at the entrance of the hole. He gently shook his wrist, driving the fishhook up and down, and moved the fishhook up and down at the entrance of the hole.
There was quite a bit of movement.
"Niuniu, why do you have to move your wrist up and down?"
Luo Hui actually knew the purpose of doing this, but he wanted to test the little girl. He didn't want to say anything, but he attracted Niu Niu's contempt, "Uncle Xiaohui, you are so stupid. The eel is a night owl. It only comes out at night."
Eat, it sleeps in its hole during the day... If you don't move your wrist up and down to wake it up, how will it know that delicious food is coming to your door?"
The little girl really knows a lot, at least she knows more than she, who just read a few tricks from the book. Luo Huihan, in order to avoid being mercilessly despised again, did not dare to ask any more random questions.
.
Luo Hui just lay there, making noises to lure the eels in the cave. One minute passed, and Luo Hui's wrists felt a little sore, but there was no reaction from the cave. Luo Hui lost his temper and was about to
When we stopped to take a rest, we heard a slight sound coming from the underwater cave.
Luo Hui suddenly became energetic. Hey, brother Eel, you're finally awake. Come on, come on, it's time to enjoy your last supper! Luo Hui's smile is as big as his smile, and he looks like a flat girl.
