- Chapter 465: Hummingbird Incident
"Uncle Zhao, why don't you go fishing?" Zhao Guangming followed Maozi for less than ten minutes before he was politely chased away.
"Your eel fishing skills are not up to par, I'll give you some pointers." Zhao Guangming left in a sullen voice. There were several times when someone almost caught the fish, but he yelled at him and ran away again.
¡°What are you looking at, kid?¡± Seeing Liu Junhao staring at the water in a daze, he asked.
¡°There are big fish here,¡± Liu Junhao stamped his feet and said.
"That's nonsense." Zhao Guangming didn't believe anything he said, "You really think you are Mr. Liu Wu. You can tell there are fish in the water just by taking a quick glance."
"I bet you, if there is a big fish, will you eat it alive?" Liu Junhao looked at this guy jokingly.
"Eat it raw, eat it raw, go down and catch it now." Zhao Guangming is not afraid of betting.
"Baby boy, go get the net from your house and use it."
"No," Zhao Guangming stopped him immediately, "What's the use of casting a net? You can catch a few crucian carp by casting a net with your eyes closed in this pond. If you do this, I also know that there are fish in the water." He is not stupid, he can really cast a net. You will lose if you bet online. Liu Junhao just said that there was a big fish, but did not say how heavy the fish was. What if he catches a crucian carp that is more than ten centimeters long and calls it a big fish?
"Don't worry, I'm not as shameless as you. The big fish I'm talking about must be at least two pounds facing up. Two pounds at a time doesn't count, so that's okay."
"That's okay" Zhao Guangming saw how confident this guy was, and his heart began to beat, but he still had to bite the bullet and agreed.
Maozi¡¯s home is not far from the weir pond, and he quickly brought his father¡¯s cast net. Several tourists who were playing cards by the weir pond heard that the two were betting and came to watch the fun.
Liu Junhao first took the cast net to a distance and wet it with water, and then began to test the net. Casting a net seems simple, but people who are new to it don't have the strength to cast it, so they often cast it with a pole net and cannot catch any fish at all.
His net-casting skills are not to be flattered, but at least he knows the two jingles, "Catch the middle, throw to the right, and flick the net string." He had learned to cast the net for a while before, and he cast it four or five times out of ten. It is oval-shaped, but it has not been used for so many years, so it was born early.
After throwing more than a dozen nets, all he caught were small crucian carp. Zhao Guangming became impatient and urged, "Can you do it? If not, forget it. You let everyone watch you play with the net."
"I can't eat hot tofu in a hurry." Liu Junhao has now found his hand, returned to his original position, stared at the water, and suddenly threw the net.
There was a soft "swish" sound, and the net fell into the water. This time, the performance was beyond the standard and the net was fully opened.
"If there is any fish, you should hurry up and pick it up." After falling into the water, Zhao Guangming began to urge again.
"The big carp must be in the net. It cannot be lifted. It must be touched in the water." Liu Junhao answered affirmatively. He was very sure that he had caught a carp in the net, but the carp would not run away after being caught in the net, but would sink directly into the mud at the bottom of the water.
While waiting to lift the net, he escaped from the bottom without paying attention. If Mr. Liu Wu is allowed to come to this net, the carp will definitely not escape, not even himself.
"You go down on your own, I don't want to be busy for a long time and find nothing." Zhao Guangming said that he didn't go into the water. He didn't believe that there would be big fish on the shore.
"I know you're a slippery kid," Liu Junhao said, putting the cast net into his hand. "You pull it tight, and I'll go down and touch it." He didn't feel at ease letting this guy go out and touch the fish.
Liu Junhao took off his shirt and pants, threw them to the kid, and then jumped into the water with a plop.
The water was only more than one meter deep, but the water temperature was relatively low in April, so he still shivered when he entered the water.
Liu Junhao doesn¡¯t have any special tricks to deal with the carp in the net. He can only step on it slowly with his feet, and then pounce to catch it.
This side is not far from the entrance of the mountain stream. The bottom of the water is fine sand and pebbles. There is not much silt, so it is easy to step on.
Just after taking a few steps, I felt my feet slip and disappeared with the fish.
This made Liu Junhao more confident, and he slowly stepped over, just in time to step on the big fish under his feet. Normally, this fish would escape as soon as it slips. Unfortunately, due to the obstruction of fishing nets, there was no way to escape.
After confirming the position, Liu Junhao took a deep breath and plunged into the water with a sudden movement.
I was very confused at the bottom of the water and saw a dark thing in front of me. Without any hesitation, he grabbed the cast net with both hands and quickly wrapped it up, wrapping up the big carp.
It feels like it should be quite big, weighing four or five kilograms.
Just as I was about to hold the cast net to float, my hand slipped again and there was another one. Unexpectedly, the net harvest was not small, and it actually caught two carp.
Liu Junhao followed suit and combined the two?The carps were all wrapped up in the net and then rushed out of the water.
"There are really big fish" Seeing the two carps in the net, everyone on the shore began to exclaim.
"Do you want to eat it raw?" Liu Junhao stretched out his hand to pick up the larger one, weighing four pounds or eight taels, while the smaller one weighed more than two pounds.
"You're not taking it lightly, are you?" Zhao Guangming asked doubtfully. He also looked at the water surface that Liu Junhao just pointed at, and there was no trace of fish swimming at all. Unless this person has clairvoyance and can see through the water.
"I won't tell you" Liu Junhao deliberately made this guy anxious without telling him the reason. The smaller carp was thrown to the furry child, while the older one was taken home to prepare fish soup for lunch.
"Brother, tell me something." Seeing his enigmatic look, Zhao Guangming felt more and more that there was something interesting here and wanted to learn a trick.
Liu Junhao kept shaking his head, and it was not until he became impatient when he was pressed at noon that he told the reason.
Carp is an omnivorous fish. It uses its mouth to drill through the sediment, pebbles or stone crevices at the bottom of the water to find food, often muddying the water.
¡°The place where they were standing was still some distance from the water inlet, and the water flow was very slow. When there is no wind, no waves, and no fish, the color in the water should be consistent.
But when Liu Junhao stood on the shore, he found that the bottom of the water was slightly muddy, and he stamped his feet twice, and several bubbles emerged. Only then was he sure that there was a big fish in the water, so he made a bet to Zhao Guangming.
¡°Bubbling means there is a big fish?¡± Zhao Guangming followed up and asked.
"It depends on the situation. It should be like this when there is no wind and no waves. We don't often say that those old fishermen have clairvoyance and can tell if there are fish just by looking at the shore. In fact, it doesn't matter. They also look for fish by looking at the color of the water. When walking along the shore, stamp your feet from time to time to startle the fish at the bottom, so that bubbles will emerge. The bigger the fish, the bigger the bubbles, the smaller the fish, the smaller the bubbles. The more bubbles, the higher the density of the fish." Liu Junhao Talk about the fish classics.
In fact, if you know the truth behind some things, you will find them to be very simple.
"Learning another trick" Zhao Guangming felt that he benefited a lot. He really didn't know that there were so many ways to catch fish before.
"It's nothing. If you ask Mr. Liu Wu to talk about catching fish, he can talk to you for three days and three nights." Liu Junhao said with a smile.
¡°Haha, it would be great if I could learn from the old man¡¯s skill of catching turtles.¡± Zhao Guangming admired Mr. Liu Wu very much and knew that he had a unique skill.
"Don't even think about it in your dreams. The old man has already said that he would bring this unique skill into the coffin." Liu Junhao didn't have much hope for this.
Zhao Guangming stayed here to have fish soup at noon, and Liu Junhao started cleaning the two empty rooms upstairs in the afternoon.
My rapeseed is about to mature, and there is no place to grow it in the yard. He planned to tidy up the upstairs earlier, and when the time came, the rapeseed would still be up there.
"Hubby, I took a photo of a hummingbird," Liu Junhao was busy upstairs, and Zhang Qian excitedly shouted while holding up her camera.
"Impossible" he directly vetoed. Since the last time I accidentally photographed rare butterflies, my wife, an amateur photographer, has become more and more energetic. She always wants to continue to create brilliance and photograph some undiscovered animals and plants. However, there are no hummingbirds in Daqingshan, at least I have never seen or heard of them.
"Really, if you don't believe it, come here and see for yourself." Zhang Qian said and went back to the house to upload the photos to the computer.
Seeing that his wife was so sure, Liu Junhao could only wash his hands and go back to the house.
When the photo opened, he opened his eyes wide, "Thisreally looks like a hummingbird?"
The photo shows clearly that there are several things slightly larger than wasps flying on the acacia branches. With just one glance, Liu Junhao was definitely not Bumblebee. They have long, pointed beaks, just like small birds. The pointed beaks are facing the flower stamens to suck, and their wings also swing back and forth, much like the hummingbirds in "Animal World".
"What does it mean to look like? It's just good or not." Zhang Qian was not satisfied with her husband's misrepresentation.
"The key is that I have never heard of such a thing in Liujiagou" Liu Junhao replied.
"Just because you haven't heard of it doesn't mean it doesn't exist. It's easy to ignore this little bird."
"No," Liu Junhao himself was very sure. I should have seen all the birds in Daqingshan, or at least heard of them, unless they are like Zhu? They have disappeared for decades.
"If you don't believe me, I can still deceive you if you go with me."
Since then, Liu Junhao stopped cleaning the house and followed his wife directly to find the legendary hummingbird.
Under the guidance of his wife, he quickly found a little guy from the acacia tree next to the ditch. From the side, he looked exactly like a bird. From the back, he looked a bit like an American F-22 fighter jet. When he flapped his wings, he made a clearly audible sound. The buzz. This guy sometimes hovers among the flowers, sometimesGalloping in front of the flowers, the posture is quite chic.
"How is it?" Zhang Qian asked with a smile.
¡°I¡¯m still not sure, I¡¯ll check Hummingbird¡¯s information,¡± Liu Junhao said, taking out his phone.
Liu Junhao almost thought it was a hummingbird when he saw the picture of a hummingbird on his phone, but the introduction above said that this thing usually lives in the tropics, and there are no hummingbirds in China at all.
"It's not necessarily true that they generally live in the tropics. Just like the flying fox we caught last year, it doesn't exist in mainland China." Zhang Qian was very convincing, and she believed that what she photographed was a hummingbird.
"What are you two looking at at the acacia tree?" Lao Chang was about to buy some eels to take away. As soon as he walked out of the village, he found Liu Junhao and his wife raising their heads and pointing at the acacia tree.
¡°Old Chang, do you think this is a hummingbird?¡± Liu Junhao pointed it out to him.
"Probably, this is the first time I heard that there are hummingbirds in Houliujiagou." Lao Chang looked at them a few times and said excitedly.
After getting the affirmative answer, Liu Junhao could only suppress his doubts in his heart. Well, he always felt that there shouldn't be hummingbirds in Liujiagou.
News of the discovery of hummingbirds on the acacia tree quickly spread in the village, and many tourists took their cameras to watch the heroic appearance of the "hummingbird" under the acacia tree.
