Previous page        Return to Catalog        Next page

    Jun Hao was afraid of missing Zhang Qian's call, so he played video games in the room after dinner. It was about three o'clock in the afternoon before Zhang Qian called to say that he was almost in Qingshan Town.

    The sky was still gloomy, and it looked like there was going to be a heavy rainstorm, so when Liu Junhao went out, he took two raincoats just in case.

    Soon after he left the village, heavy raindrops fell. Fortunately, he had a raincoat, so he didn't get soaked in the rain.

    The water flowed downwards, and the rainwater poured down the mountain road into the river and stone road.  After a while, the road was filled with rainwater.

    ¡°Now the road is entirely paved with Jiangshi, so Liu Junhao¡¯s journey was smooth.  However, the rain became heavier and heavier, and soon the sky and the earth became foggy, and no one could be seen even a few feet away.

    As we approached the town, the rainwater had completely submerged the smooth road surface, making it difficult to ride a bicycle.  The rainwater brought up by the rotation of the wheel kept splashing on his trousers, and his trousers were soon wet all over.

    Liu Junhao saw that there was no way to ride a bicycle in this section, so he had to roll up his trouser legs and push the bicycle forward.

    It took him more than twenty minutes to rush to the station.

    It¡¯s a station. In fact, it¡¯s just a ¡°Qingshan Town Station¡± sign hanging on the side of the street. There¡¯s not even a ticket office around.

    Seeing that the bus hadn¡¯t arrived yet, Liu Junhao put his bicycle under the eaves of someone¡¯s house and stood in the corner to take shelter from the rain.

    The rain is getting heavier and heavier.  Soon the water in the low-lying areas of the street was half knee deep.  Zhang Qian originally agreed to come back at four o'clock in the afternoon.  It's already half past four and there's still no sign of the bus.  The people who picked up the car together gradually became anxious.  I muttered in a low voice that the car might have broken down on the road.

    Liu Junhao saw that waiting like this was not an option.  So I ran to a place selling cigarettes and alcohol in the rain.  Borrow someone else's public phone to call Zhang Qian.

    Zhang Qian spoke urgently as soon as she answered the phone.  Those crows' mouths really hit the mark.  The car broke down on the road.  The driver is now calling someone to come and fix it.  It is said that it will take at least an hour.

    It rains and it gets dark and early.  It will probably be completely dark in another hour.  Liu Junhao was a little worried.  Just tell her not to worry.  I'll hire a numb guy to rush over immediately.

    He ran to the rain shelter and told the person who picked up the bus that the bus was broken down halfway.  Everyone began to curse this god.  It's just that they are not very enthusiastic about hiring Nu Nu.  I want to wait and see.  Maybe the bus will be repaired soon.

    Liu Junhao stopped persuading.  Just find a numb car.  After agreeing on the price, he hung the bike behind him.  So I went to pick up Zhang Qian in the rain.

    The road is also covered with white flowers, and from time to time you can see crucian carp shells jumping on the road in the water.  The driver of Numbari originally wanted to stop the car and pick up two, but Liu Junhao urged him to hurry up.

    It took them half an hour to get to the scene of the accident, and they saw the driver repairing the car in the rain with his butt sticking out.  The bright engine oil covered the puddles and smelled very pungent.

    Zhang Qian loaded her luggage into the car with the envious eyes of the people in the car.  Although it was small, it was still very spacious for the two of them.  When Liu Junhao saw that there were still free seats, he ran to the bus and asked if anyone was willing to go numb. Immediately, a couple stood up with their children in their arms.

    It was a bit crowded for four adults in the car.  As soon as the man got in the car, he thanked her profusely and said that the couple had gone to the county hospital to treat their child and were in a hurry to go home and cook medicine.

    By the time Ma Nu arrived at the town, it had already darkened, and many people were turning on their lamps.

    After paying the fare, the couple thanked them again, while Liu Junhao and Zhang Qian continued to drive toward Liujiagou in numbness.

    Just after arriving in the village, I saw two people running away with a fishing boat towards Dayan Tang. When they encountered Liu Junhao, they shouted to let him help him, saying that the ox of Liu Wuye's house fell into the weir pond.

    Liu Junhao became anxious upon hearing this. He pushed the car towards Zhang Qian and followed them.

    It turns out that Mr. Liu Wu scattered his cattle on the hillside to graze in the afternoon. Because he was worried that the wheat stacks would get wet due to rain, he went home to build the wheat stacks first.  Unexpectedly, the heavy rain came at a moment's notice, making the cow dizzy, and finally broke the reins.

    This thing was not completely confused, and it still knew how to run towards the village.

    It was just that the rain was falling so fast that the cattle couldn't see the road clearly, and ended up plunging into the weir and pond.

    The oxen are no better than the buffaloes and cannot swim at all, so they can only scream and kick towards the bank with their hooves in the weir pond.

    The slope of this section was very steep, and the ground was slippery on rainy days. Therefore, the cattle struggled several times but failed to get to the shore. In the end, it drank a lot of water.The water sinks to the bottom.

    Over there, Liu Wuye had covered all the wheat straw stacks, and then he remembered that his cattle were still on the hillside, so he hurriedly went to fetch them.  However, he searched the entire hillside in the rain but could not find the ox. In the end, he only found half of the reins. He also estimated that the ox had run back to the village, so he came back and asked door to door.

    I heard that his cow got lost, and many people came out wearing raincoats to help find it, but no one noticed anything strange in the weir pond.

    When a few naughty children were standing under the eaves to take shelter from the rain, they suddenly saw a black figure floating in the weir pond.

    When I looked at the thing with a portable lamp, I discovered that it was Liu Wuye¡¯s scalper.

    I don¡¯t know what happened to the cow, but it was blown into the middle of the water by the wind.  The closest place to the shore was five or six feet away, and it was impossible to reach it with bamboo poles, so everyone thought of a way to salvage it with a fishing boat.

    When Liu Junhao and others rushed over, there were already a lot of people gathered there. You could vaguely see the bloated cattle floating on the water, obviously full of water in their stomachs.

    Everyone threw the wooden boat into the weir pond in confusion, and Liu Junhao and two young men volunteered to punt the boat and go to salvage it.

    Liujiagou is close to a big river. There used to be many fishermen in the village, and the older generation made a living by fishing.

    However, due to the barrier of mountains, fish and shrimp cannot be transported out at all, so the price has always been very low, which is not as cost-effective as farming.  Therefore, no one makes a living from fishing now, and the fishing boats in the village have been almost destroyed.

    This fishing boat was taken out from Liu Guangju¡¯s house. It is a rare eagle boat.

    The Eagle Boat is very different from ordinary fishing boats. It is made up of two small boats connected in parallel.  The bow of the ship is slightly tilted, like two crescent moons.  There is a gap of more than two feet wide between the two boats, just enough to accommodate a person's shoulder.

    The wood used to make eagle ships is generally paulownia, which is extremely light. A ship only weighs fifty or sixty kilograms.  After fishing every day, the fishermen would clean the eagle boat, pick it up with an embroidery pole, and carry it away directly.

    However, although the Eagle Ship is light, it requires a high degree of skill to prop it up. Only by mastering the balance can it slide forward.  It was the first time for the three of them to use this kind of boat, and they stupidly got a few oars and moved them vigorously on the water.  As a result, the force was uneven, and the eagle boat kept swinging around the shore, getting further and further away from the ox.

    "You naughty kids are so stupid. You can't even row a boat. Don't say that you are from Liujiagou when you go out from now on." Liu Guangju also rushed over anxiously at this time. When he saw how they were rowing, he was so ridiculous.  He yelled at the top of his lungs, "Two people, come down and I'll go up and row the boat."

    After he jumped onto the side of the boat, he pushed away the oar handed out by Liu Junhao and said: "The eagle boat must be supported by bamboo poles." Someone on the shore had already brought a thick bamboo pole two feet long and handed it over.

    After all, he was an expert. He gently tapped the bamboo pole in the water a few times and slid the eagle boat to the side of the cattle.

    Use a bamboo pole to insert it into the water, and the eagle boat will be firmly fixed there.  The two of them tied the ox's front and rear legs to the boat with ropes, and then rowed slowly toward the shore.

    Although the ox weighs six to seven hundred kilograms, it is very light in the water.

    After rowing to the shore, there were already six or seven people waiting there.  After three strokes and five divisions, the ox was tied up and tied up with two pieces of wood. Eight people lifted the ox.

    The cow¡¯s belly was soaked and swollen, and it would probably not taste good after one night. Therefore, as soon as they arrived at Liu Wuye¡¯s house, someone called Liu Guangquan and asked him to disembowel the cow.

    The cow had already drowned, so it was very easy to kill.  No one was needed to help, Liu Guangquan cut it into pieces by himself.

    Liu Wuye¡¯s face was always filled with pain from beginning to end. This ox was originally a cow he bought at a cattle store in the spring, and he expected it to give birth to a calf. He didn¡¯t expect that this would happen in just a few months.

    We are all from the same village and can help each other, so as soon as the beef was put on the case, everyone took out the bills and bought it for three pounds and five pounds. In a short time, most of the beef was sold.

    ¡°Originally, everyone wanted to charge the town¡¯s price of fifteen yuan per catty, but Mr. Liu Wu insisted on disagreeing and insisted on selling it at ten yuan per catty no matter what.

    After all this trouble, it was already completely dark, and Liu Junhao also carried five or six kilograms of beef home.

    Unexpectedly, Zhang Qian was still sitting and playing with the computer at her home. When she saw him come in, she quickly stood up and said, "Are you cold? I just made you a few bowls of ginger soup in the kitchen. I'll bring it to you right away."

    "It's a bit cold. How did you get in? The black panther didn't bite you?" Liu Junhao took off his raincoat and sneezed immediately.

    "Xiaopi recognizes me," Zhang Qian said, already holding a dishA bowl of ginger soup came into the house.

    Although ginger soup is still ginger soup, Liu Junhao drank it warmly and felt a little proud.  In just a few months, Zhang Qian can already make ginger soup.

    Liu Wuye got up early in the morning and started to deal with the things in the cow's belly, throwing them into the wooden basin and rinsing them.  When he touched the cow's gallbladder, he suddenly felt a small hard lump inside.  He immediately realized that this thing might be a bezoar, and he was so excited that he called Liu Guangquan over to identify it.

    After Liu Guangquan cut his gallbladder with a knife, he poured out the khaki-colored bile inside. Sure enough, he found a cinnabar-colored object, about the size of a small egg.

    It¡¯s just that although he has killed many cows, this is the first time he has seen this thing.  Therefore, he did not dare to confirm, so he sent people to the street to find Lao Guo who killed the cow.

    The news that Mr. Liu Wu¡¯s skinny cow had killed a bezoar soon spread throughout the village. Many people ran over to see the strange thing, including Liu Junhao.

    That thing suddenly looked a bit like the egg yolk in pickled eggs, with a hint of orange.
