Text Chapter 340 Bat spirit?

Previous page        Return to Catalog        Next page

    In the first round, neither side gained anything.  After they separate.  The big snake no longer wanted to fight, and quickly swam deeper into the grass.

    "Woof woof" the dog had no intention of letting it go. He ran away and intercepted the big snake again.  The little guy became more cautious this time. He didn't rush in and bite like last time, but moved his body left and right to test.

    Not to be outdone, the big snake kept swallowing its core and hissing.  Snakes generally don't have very good eyesight, and this cauliflower snake is no exception.  Now it can only adjust its posture according to the opponent's movements, and its speed is obviously half a beat slower.

    By the time the test was completed, the little dog lost its patience and suddenly jumped forward, its claws already pressed against the snake's body.  Then the guy opened his mouth wide and bit the snake's head. After a while, the snake completely died.  After winning the first battle, the puppy seemed particularly excited. He kept barking at Xiaopi, as if waiting for his father's praise.

    Liu Junhao stepped forward and picked up the cauliflower snake and weighed it a few times. It weighed three kilograms. It was another delicious treat at night.  The snake meat cannot be stored for a long time in this weather. It must be taken back immediately, cleaned and salted.  But it¡¯s only been less than half an hour since I arrived.  Chitu was not full yet, so Liu Junhao thought for a while and finally threw the cauliflower snake into the stone lock.  He has tested this stone lock, and it has a very good preservation function, even better than the refrigerator.

    After everything was packed, Liu Junhao moved a stone and placed it under the big willow tree. He sat on the big stone and took a nap with his back against the willow tree.  This place is right at the wind outlet. When the breeze blows, it is extremely cool, and I feel so comfortable that I don't want to move at all.

    As he was about to fall asleep, a few crisp oriole calls from the willow tree woke him up.  "Two orioles chirping at the green willows" was a very appropriate sentiment, but before he could finish the poem, Wukong jumped up onto the tree and screamed at the orioles, making them flutter in fear.  The wings fly away quickly.

    This guy, if I had known earlier that I didn¡¯t bring him here, he would really ruin the scenery!  Liu Junhao shook his head depressedly, and then continued to squint his eyes It would be good to sleep in this place for an afternoon.

    "Zhizhi" He didn't sleep for two minutes, but Wukong woke him up again.  Liu Junhao wanted to scold it severely, but when he opened his eyes, he was stunned: This guy was holding a big old turtle in his claws.

    "Where did you catch this?" He took the old turtle over with a little excitement.

    The monkey didn¡¯t know whether he understood it or not. He just kept pointing his paws towards the river.

    "Go and catch another one." Liu Junhao patted this guy's head with appreciation.  When Master Liu Wu was performing a turtle-catching performance in Chun Shang, a group of people followed him and watched for a long time without realizing anything. In the end, Wukong, the blind cat, killed the mouse and caught an old turtle.  At that time, he had some doubts about whether monkeys also knew the way of turtles, but it was a pity that he asked several times in a row, but this guy always pretended to be stupid.  Now it seems that Wukong really may know the turtle's way.

    "Zhizhi" the monkey's little head kept shaking, looking like it didn't intend to catch it again.

    "Catch an old turtle and I'll give you lotus pods to eat." Liu Junhao stretched out his hand and turned it over.  He took out a lotus pod as big as a bowl from the stone lock.

    As soon as Wukong saw the lotus pod, he immediately became excited, stretched out his paws and jumped to ask for it.  As long as the food in the courtyard is edible, few can escape the monkey's paws, except this lotus pod.  Although this guy is not afraid of water, he can't swim either. Every time he sees lotus pods in the lotus pond, he can only look away and sigh.

    Liu Junhao reached out and turned the lotus pod into the stone lock again.  He pointed at the dark guy on the ground, and then gestured with his hand: "Old turtle"

    The monkey yelled reluctantly, and then ran towards the river not far away.

    Liu Junhao was completely sleepless at this moment and followed closely, wanting to see how the monkey found the old turtle.

    After walking less than fifty meters, I heard a crackling sound in front of me and saw several black stone-like things rolling and crawling towards the river.

    "Plop" and "plop" were heard several times, and those guys jumped into the water.  The monkey was walking fast in front, but he stepped on one.

    I¡¯m so confused. How could I forget the line in the four-line song about the old turtle, ¡°It roosts under a willow tree in the scorching summer heat.¡± Now if you want to catch the old turtle, just don¡¯t do it under the willow tree.

    Wukong¡¯s movements were swift. He flipped his claws and pinched the guy up.  Maybe he learned his lesson from the last bite.  It deliberately staggered the old turtle's head when pinching.

    Liu Junhao stepped forward to pick up the old turtle, but when the monkey saw its owner's hand stretched out, he quickly took two steps back, squeaking and staring directly at his hand.  That obviously means making love with lotus pods and making love with turtles. If you want to use your hands empty-handed, there is no way!

    "Almost forgot?" He patted his head and took out the lotus pod again.  Only then did Wukong get excited. He stuffed the old turtle into his master's hand, took the lotus pod and ran away to eat.

      If you know where the old turtle is hiding, the next thing will be simple.  The willow forest by the river is forty to fifty meters long, and there are too many places for the old turtle to hide.  Liu Junhao took off his shoes, rolled his trouser legs up to his knees, and then quietly descended into the river.  This trick is called "catching the turtles". The old turtles on the beach are very clever and will dive into the river when they hear any noise.  As long as you get into the water, everything will be fine and it will be difficult to be caught again.  After the turtle catchers figure out this pattern, they will quietly pull up the turtle net by the river, then suddenly appear and chase them from behind.  The old turtle was in a panic and would probably crash into the turtle net if he didn't choose his path.

    Turtle nets are very similar to rabbit nets. They are both vertical nets woven with silk threads. A turtle net is twenty centimeters high and two to three meters long.  Seven or eight turtle nets were put up on the river beach, and the old turtle definitely didn't escape.  In the past, when there were many old turtles on the Liujiagou river beach, some people used turtle nets. Now that there are fewer old turtles, few people use this kind of net anymore.

    Liu Junhao came in a hurry today, so naturally he didn¡¯t bring any tools.  But he also has a magical gem lock, which is better than a turtle net.

    "Xiao Pi," with a loud shout, Huang Pi Pi, who was enjoying the cool under the shade of a tree, immediately jumped up and ran straight towards his owner.

    As soon as they heard any movement, those alert old turtles also reacted and rolled towards the river.

    Liu Junhao had already set up his net and waited for the old turtle to approach, and he quickly opened the stone lock.

    "Pappap" There was a sound, and four old turtles of different sizes fell onto the beach.

    This time the guys were knocked unconscious, and when they woke up they rolled and crawled into the pond.

    The first battle was tense. Liu Junhao led Xiaopi and wreaked havoc all the way down the beach. After turning around the beach, more than a dozen old turtles were also caught in the stone lock.

    If you follow the original path and catch it again, you should be able to catch a lot of fish that slipped through the net.  However, Liu Junhao did not continue. He had to keep everything in mind. If he really caught all the old turtles in this area, it would be a sin.

    After catching the old turtle, Liu Junhao was covered in sweat. He took off his clothes and took a bath in the river, then took Xiaopi and rushed home.

    "Xiao Hao, you are finally back. I have been looking for you everywhere. Hurry up and tie up the red rabbit and follow me to the ancestral hall." Before reaching the door of the house, Liu Laosan was seen walking out of Professor Zhao's courtyard.

    "What's going on at the ancestral hall?" Liu Junhao asked doubtfully.  Since the discovery of the stone tablet while building a hotel, several elderly people in the village have focused on repairing the ancestral hall.  This ancestral hall is simply a place for Liujiagou people to worship their ancestors. Three tile-roofed houses are enough, so it doesn't cost much.  After the ancestral hall is built, it will be temporarily guarded by Lao Niutou, who will offer incense and worship on the first and fifteenth day of the lunar month.  Although the younger generation in the village didn't like it, they didn't say anything. After all, it was a way to remember their ancestors.

    "Hurry up and have a look, our ancestors have appeared." Liu Laosan said with a smile.

    "Bullshit" Liu Junhao naturally doesn't believe this nonsense.

    "Really, you'll know if you go and take a look. It's very evil. It seems to have something to do with the peach tree in your yard"

    "What's going on about the peach tree in my courtyard?" Liu Junhao became more and more confused as he listened.

    "Don't tell me, this thing is really a bit evil. It was Lao Niutou who discovered it first"

    Old Niutou goes to work at the chicken farm during the day and only occasionally visits the ancestral hall.  The night before yesterday, he didn't know what happened, but he thought of burning incense in the ancestral hall.  As soon as I arrived at the door, I heard a "squeak, squeak, squeak, squeak" sound coming from inside. The sound was very mixed, as if a large group of rats were making trouble inside.  At first he thought it was a rat inside, so he went in with a handheld light to check, but there was nothing inside.  Early the next morning, he took the cat into the ancestral hall and searched for it. After searching for a long time, he couldn't find even a mouse hole.

    At night, this strange scream came again.  Old Niutou was worried and called the villagers to check, but they encountered the same situation.  I shined my handheld lamp back and forth for a long time, but found nothing. When I left the ancestral hall, there was a lot of noise inside.  By daytime, the ancestral hall was quiet again, with no sound at all.

    "Isn't the mouse hiding in the beam?" Liu Junhao asked with a hint of confusion.  When the ancestral hall was originally built, it used a bracket-type composite structure. On the second floor, there was a small attic made of wood. It was easy for rats to hide in it.

    "It would be great if it was a rat. A few of us searched inside and outside, and we didn't see even a drop of rat droppings. But it's not that there was no harvest. Guess what we found inside?"

    "Stop being so pretentious, tell me quickly?" Liu Junhao's curiosity arose when he heard his talkative expression.

    "We found peach stones in the gaps between the beams, which were bigger than eggs"

    "As big as an egg?" Liu Junhao was stunned. It seemed that except for the strange peach tree in his yard, no other peach had such a big pit.

    ?"Yes, it looks very similar to your peach core, so Old Niutou asked me to identify it with you."

    While talking, the two people had arrived outside the ancestral hall.  There were already a lot of people gathered there, and it seemed they had heard something strange happened there and wanted to come over to join in the fun.

    "Xiao Hao, come here, is this peach core yours?" Mr. Liu Wu said and pulled him into the ancestral hall.

    "It should be from my family." Liu Junhao only glanced at it and nodded in reply.  The characteristics of our own peach pits are so obvious that they are nearly twice the size of ordinary peach pits.  The texture is also much more delicate.

    His family lives in the east of the village, and this ancestral hall stands in the west of the village. The two places are nearly a hundred meters apart, with half a village of people separated in the middle.  What on earth transports peach pits so far?  It's definitely not a mouse. House mice generally don't have such a wide range of activities.

    "But why are there peach stones here? Could it be that some child sneaked into my yard, picked peaches and put the peach stones in the ancestral hall?" He asked in confusion.  Since animals don't have that much ability, the only possibility is that some naughty boy in the village deliberately caused trouble.

    "No, we dropped these peach stones on the roof of the house. Whose child has such a big ability." The beams are four to five meters high, and it is difficult to get up without the help of foreign objects.

    This is really strange. Could it be that the ancestors are really showing their spirits.

    "Could it be Wukong? Every time he eats a peach core, he hides it in the monkey's nest" Liu Junhao started to think about it, and immediately thought of another possibility.

    "Hurry up and ride Junliang's bicycle. Go back quickly." After hearing this, several people turned their attention to the monkey.

    Liu Junhao took the bicycle and rushed home within two minutes.

    Professor Zhao and Mr. Jiang saw him in a hurry and asked what was weird in the ancestral hall.  They had heard Liu Laosan say it before, but both of them were atheists. Naturally, they didn't believe in the appearance of ancestors, and they didn't go to check.

    "It's really a bit weird." Liu Junhao roughly narrated the matter. After hearing what he said, the two old men thought about going over to check.

    The number of peach stones in the monkey's nest did not seem to decrease. Liu Junhao went to the monkey's nest and looked at it for a while. He really couldn't see any clues, so he could only ride back to the village.

    "That sound may be the cry of a bat. It's easy for bats to hide in old houses like this, and the sound of bats is very similar to that of mice." Mr. Jiang asked after listening to everyone's narrative.

    "What's going on with this peach stone?" As he spoke, Liu Laosan dropped another peach stone from above.

    This peach stone seems to have just been picked not long ago, and there is still some pulp on it.

    As the bamboo pole moves, there are more and more peach stones inside.  Everyone was a little stunned. This seemed to be too much. After a while, seven or eight gnawed peach stones appeared inside.  Together with the ones on the table, there are already fifteen or six.

    The peach tree in the courtyard doesn¡¯t bear many peaches. It¡¯s incredible that Liu Junhao didn¡¯t know that there were so many peaches missing all of a sudden.

    Mr. Jiang saw a small patch of water stains on the side of the offering table. He came over and touched some with his fingers, put it in front of his nose and sniffed it, and finally said with certainty, "Throw it hard, it should be bats. They eat these peaches."

    ¡°Don¡¯t bats eat insects?¡± a tourist asked in confusion.

    "Haha, not all bats eat insects. For example, the big-footed myotis bat discovered in China in recent years is a fish-eating bat. The bat hiding in this beam should be a fruit bat, which specializes in eating fruits and flower pistils  ¡­¡±

    Before Mr. Jiang finished speaking, Liu Laosan suddenly shouted: "Oh my God", and then the bamboo pole was thrown to the ground with a clatter.

    "Huh!" Everyone saw a huge black shadow flying over their heads, and then began to circle rapidly around the ancestral hall.

    "This is a bat" The people inside were almost stunned. The bat's wings were more than one meter long. It can be said to be the giant among bats.
