    "Husband, is this the fruit of your hard work all afternoon?" He just walked back to the door.  Zhang Qian pointed at the wooden plank bridge and shouted.

    "What's wrong¡­¡­"

    "It's too ugly! Let's tear it down." When she was drawing the picture, she felt that the bridge should be very beautiful when it was built. At school, she thought about coming back early after school to see the real thing, but when she saw it, it was not the case at all.  That's what happened.

    "Haha, why did you dismantle it? This is all made according to your design. I think it is very beautiful." Liu Junhao suppressed a smile and looked at his wife.  She will gain wisdom after suffering a hardship, and she will no longer be too ambitious and underhanded in the future.

    "Reallythen when someone asks, can you just say that you designed this bridge?" Zhang Qian had an expression on her face that showed she couldn't afford to be embarrassed.

    Looking at his wife¡¯s appearance, he could only nod and take the blame, who could be his own wife?

    The next morning, Liu Junhao went to the river beach to cut thatch and build a pavilion roof.  Originally, according to Professor Zhao¡¯s idea, tiles should be used to counter the roof no matter what, so that it could be of high quality.

    However, Liu Junhao felt that using thatched pavilion was more poetic. The ancient poem did not say, "I heard the old stream beside the thatched house, and the spring breeze sprouted several new vines." When the thatched pavilion is completed, it will be absolutely wonderful to wrap some morning glory branches and leaves on the top.  Word.

    The thatch along both sides of the river is usually not cut by anyone, so it grows very thick. In less than half an hour, Liu Junhao cut a cart full of it.

    When he came back, Er Mazi was just about to resist the wood.  A few people squatted on the ground in a group Er Mazi's craftsmanship was pretty good.  The purlins on the pavilion have even gaps and look like keels, interlocking with each other.  The thatch is completely woven on the purlins, and the pavilion suddenly shows a somewhat primitive flavor.

    Everyone erected the pavilion in the center of the bridge like building blocks, and then fixed it with nails.

    Looking at this wooden bridge now Liu Junhao couldn't believe his eyes.  God!  Things that were originally ugly immediately came to life, and the pavilion was the finishing touch.

    After the pavilion was built, Liu Junhao transplanted several morning glories from his garden into small flower pots.  Of course, with the cheating device of Shisuo, he can guarantee that the flower will grow well.  It is conceivable that in a few days, this small bridge will be full of morning glory and fragrant.

    After everything was sorted, he and Professor Zhao moved two chairs and sat in the pavilion.  Don't tell me this pavilion is really no different from a natural air conditioner. With the shade of trees above your head, the gurgling water under your feet, and the evaporated water vapor, the entire pavilion contains a refreshing coolness.  In addition, lotus leaves are swaying, small fish are in groups, and a few water ducks are quacking under the bridge It is really poetic and calligraphy.

    Unfortunately, they didn¡¯t enjoy it for long. Liu Guangju called him and asked him to go to the weir and pond to catch the fire.

    "Uncle Guangju, are you going to catch the big blaze?" Liu Junhao became interested as soon as he heard this. The most thrilling thing about May Day is probably the fight between the big blaze and the otter.  At that time, someone in the village proposed to capture this thing, but there were very few people who responded, so the matter had to be dropped.

    It has just been a few days, why has something unexpected happened again?

    "Yes, that's the fire head. Come here quickly. Do you still have your harpoon? Bring it over by the way. You need it to catch the fire head."

    "Harpoons were sold for scrap metal eight hundred years ago" Liu Junhao's family used to have two harpoons, but they got rusty after not being used for a long time, so he finally sold them as scrap metal.

    "You are such a naughty kid. You are really a salesman. Why are you selling such a good thing? Come here now and I will help you find a use." Liu Guang gathered there and sighed in his heart.

    "Uncle Guangju, it's useless to find one, I don't know how to use a harpoon at all," Liu Junhao said with a sad face.  When it comes to fishing, all the men in Liujiagou are masters, but they use different tools depending on their age.  A few decades ago, there were so many fish in the nearby water that one could hardly imagine. Old man Liu once described it before, saying that if he stood by the ditch and picked up a bucket of water, he would surely catch half a catty of crucian carp shells in it.  On a moonlit night, I stood on the shore and looked into the ditch. All the white flowers in it were small white fish, shining dazzlingly.  However, no one eats these small ones. After catching them, they just chop them into pieces and feed them to ducks and chickens.

    The real fish that people in the village eat are grass carp, silver carp, etc. weighing more than seven or eight pounds. At that time, food was scarce.  Every time I cook, I stack a big piece and steam it, which makes everyone want to vomit.  For this reason, most older people are accustomed to using harpoons to catch fish.  Especially Liu Wuye is a master among them.  The old man's unique skills of stabbing fish with a flying spear and catching turtles are even more amazing, and he is well-known in villages around ten miles and eight.

    Then in the 1980s, with the increase in population and the extensive use of pesticides and fertilizers, the number of fish in the river decreased rapidly.  The middle-aged generation began to build nets for fishing, which was convenient and fast, and they only used harpoons when they encountered big fish.  In the hands of young people??, the harpoon has completely become a thing of the past, and no one uses it anymore.

    "If you don't know how to use a harpoon, just pick it up and poke it when you see the flames. Come over here quickly, I'm just waiting." Liu Guangju muttered, then hung up the phone.

    "Is the village trying to catch a fire?" The phone call was very loud just now, and Professor Zhao could hear it clearly.

    "Well" Liu Junhao nodded and said, "We can't play this chess. Let's go to the weir and pond to watch the fire catchers."

    The two of them rushed to the edge of Dayan Pond, where no less than thirty people had gathered.  Except for a few tourists, the rest were all called over by Liu Guangju to help.

    Seeing them coming, people greeted them one after another, and Liu Junhao also learned the whole story from Er Mazi.  It took less than half a month for the emotional flames to be discovered, and it had already aroused public outrage.  This thing not only eats fish, but also attacks geese and ducks.  It's not like I've never lost a duck before, but not that frequently.  In just a few days, a dozen of them were lost.  It's not okay to continue like this. It won't take long before every goose and duck in the house will be groped.

    Several companies that had suffered heavy losses discussed and prepared to eliminate this unsafe factor.  Of course there is another level of consideration.  That is, summer is coming soon, and many people want to take a bath in the water. What if the fire suddenly goes crazy and attacks people.

    Liu Guangju immediately nodded in agreement with this idea and began to call people.

    Hearing the end, Liu Junhao could only lament that this should be grasped, it was too high-profile.  If you just eat fish, it will definitely not attract people's attention.  Just like my own firehead, if it were not during the fry production period, I would definitely not be able to catch it.

    Producing fry He suddenly understood.  Huotou usually produces fry during this season.  Could it be that this fire head is also like this, which is why it is so rampant and attacks poultry in shallow water?

    Thinking of this, Liu Junhao approached Liu Guangju and shouted: "Uncle Guangju, is the fire head in the seedling stage? Has anyone seen any fire heads around it? If so, let's fish with a fishhook."

    "Yes, why did you forget about this" The people around them all woke up. They were only thinking about catching fire and simply forgot to look for fish along the coast.  The weather is not too hot now, so if there is a fire, it will definitely be in shallow water.

    So, people all dispersed with a huff and a cry.

    "Found it, here" Liu Qiyong shouted loudly in less than five minutes.

    Everyone heard the sound and rushed over.  I saw a large black mass of small fish under the bent willow tree.  They are all gray and black, and each one is two fingers long.

    ¡°This is Huotou Miao, why is it no different from other fish?¡± At this time, a tourist asked in a low voice.

    "Isn't Huotou just a fish?" Liu Junhao replied funny.  When this thing is small, it looks like any other fish, but when it grows to a chopstick length, it becomes more ferocious.

    "I'll try to see if it's the blaze," Liu Guangju said, aiming at the middle of the blaze and throwing a brick.  Huotou is quite domineering, especially during the seedling stage.  Generally, only one firehead can produce seedlings in a water area at the same time.  Even if there is another fire head, it will be eaten by the larger fire head.  However, the water area in Liujiagou is too large, so there is no guarantee that there will not be a second one.

    "Dong" followed by a sound, and those flames fled crazily.

    "No movement?" Just when everyone was confused, a dark voice emerged faintly from the water.

    "Good guy. It's true." Now the people on the shore became completely noisy.

    "Get out of the way, get out of the way, let me throw the fishhook down" As he spoke, Liu Qiyong had already brought the fishing rod from home.  A large ball of red rope was specially tied near the fishhook, which was used to seduce the fire head.

    He had just dropped the fishhook in the middle of the flames, and it hadn't started to shake yet.  Suddenly there was a wave in the water, and the rope was straightened.

    Liu Qiyong was caught off guard and was suddenly pulled into the water with a splash, and the fishing rod was also dragged to the deep water.

    Several people around him hurriedly stretched out their hands to pull Liu Qiyong to the shore. Most of his pants were wet, and water was dripping down.

    "Why don't you hurry up?" Several people around saw Huotou fleeing towards the center of the weir pond with his fishing rod, and they began to complain.

    "Who knew it could respond so quickly?" Liu Qiyong was also quite aggrieved.  That guy didn't follow the rules at all. He didn't even announce the launch, but it took the lead.

    "What can we do? Once the fire starts, it will be difficult to take the bait again." Several people on the shore were at a loss what to do.

    ¡°The fishing rod has stopped moving, is the fire head running out of energy?¡± At this time, a tourist shouted loudly.

    "That's decoupling." Everyone around knew what was going on.  Generally, if a big fish doesn't get off the hook, it will keep holding on to it.

    As someone took a big bamboo pole and carried the fishing rod to the shore.Everyone took a breath when they saw the fishhook, which was thicker than a sewing needle and was bitten off.

    "You must have bought this fishhook from Qihua, you naughty kid, the quality of the fishhook you sell is simply not up to par." Now that no fish has been caught, Liu Guangju scolds whoever he catches.

    Liu Qihua was immediately unjustly accused and had no way to explain. Such a big fire head would have to be bitten off even a golden hook.  What's more, Liu Qiyong didn't give any money when he took the fishhook.

    "Why don't you call Liu Wuye? He has a way of catching fire." At this time, Liu Junhao suggested again.

    "I guess I can't do anything even if the old man is here. Even the gods who are frightened can't do anything." Although Liu Guangju didn't believe that Mr. Liu Wu could do anything, he still sent someone to the chicken farm to shout.  Now Liu Wuye lives in a chicken farm for food and accommodation, and usually doesn't come to the village when nothing happens.

    "You dare to use this fishhook to catch big fires, aren't you kidding? I've seen that fire head, it weighs almost a hundred pounds. You should use a pole hook to catch this kind of fire head" Liu Wuye just arrived at the weir pond.  Some surprising words came.

    "The pole hookis the pole we use to draw water?" When several young people heard this, they were shocked: This old man is just joking.  There was once a saying on the Internet that "unicycles and pole poles are the fifth greatest invention in ancient China." This thing is very simple to make, just tie two hooks with steel bars on the bottom of a narrow bamboo board.  Use it to pick things up and swing around, which is quite labor-saving.  It was often used in rural areas in the past.

    "But the hook on the shoulder pole is as thick as a finger. It's unimaginable to use it to catch fire."

    Everyone was looking forward to another miracle from Mr. Liu Wu, but he finally said: "Twenty years younger, I will definitely give you a show. It can't be done now, only this old bone is left. The harpoon is even worse, you guys  Who can do that? Even if you hit a fish, it will definitely run away. If you want to catch this fire, I will give you a trick, use a fishing net. With bait, you should be able to catch this thing"

    "Drawing nets, are you going to make such a big noise?" Liu Guangju asked with some confusion.

    When the younger generation heard that fishing nets would be used, they became excited. They had not seen fishing like this in seven or eight years.  That's a big killer, and it's also called a sweep.  The larger fishing nets are twenty or thirty meters long, and the mesh is generally very small.  When crossing the river, few fish, turtles, shrimps and crabs will escape, even the newly born fry.

    This fishing net in Liujiagou is not like this. On the contrary, the mesh is very large, and there are many pocket-like dimples in the middle of the net, and heavy lead weights are used to fall to the ground below.  It is specially used to catch big fish, but it requires too many people and cannot be used at ordinary times.

    "I'm still afraid that the fishing net won't work. After all, it's almost ten years since I've used it, and the network cable is probably rotten." Liu Wuye explained, then turned around and said, "A few young people will come here to help lift the net. Guangju, you can go get two more."  A hawk ship. I'll prepare some bait for the fire head"

    The old man took over the command without any ambiguity and explained the matter clearly in a few sentences.

    After a few people scrambled to carry the fishing net to the weir pond, Liu Guangju also found someone to resist the eagle boat.  Afraid that the young man would not be able to hold on, he specifically asked Liu Junhao to go down and test the waters.

    After unfolding the fishing net, Liu Wuye specially asked someone to carefully check whether there were any holes.  You have to be careful when catching such a big fish, as a small oversight may allow it to escape.  After the inspection, several people began to thread two well ropes as net strands.  Four people stood on the shore holding the two corners of the fishing net, and four others supported the eagle boat and slid it to the deep water to lower the net.

    After the preparations were ready, Liu Wuye took out the specially made bait from the snakeskin bag.

    The old man did not throw the bait in the middle of the fishing net at first, but scattered it randomly along the shore. After a while, a faint fishy smell began to spread in the water.
