    Chapter 474 Catching locusts on a rainy day

    Liu Junhao ignored the guy¡¯s sarcastic remarks and was determined to figure out the strange situation in the ditch.  He bent down and kept groping along the reeds. After walking more than ten meters, he suddenly felt something was wrong under his fingers.  He subconsciously pressed his hand down, and then he noticed something rough and slightly elastic beneath his hand, sitting silently under the water.

    ??Old turtle?  This word flashed into Liu Junhao's mind instantly.  He quickly swung his hands in the water, just in time to encircle the old turtle's lid. Before the thing could react, the old turtle's head had been pushed into the mud.

    Bubbles of water bubbled up, and the surrounding area became turbid.

    "What's going on, what's going on?" Seeing the turbid water splashing in the water, Zhao Guangming ran over quickly.

    Liu Junhao had no time to pay attention to him and pressed the old turtle tightly to prevent it from sliding away. With his other hand, he quickly plunged the net bag into the water.  Not slanted, just covering the old turtle.

    Without any hesitation, he directly grabbed the net bag and lifted the mud out of the water.

    "Damn" saw an old turtle the size of a bowl caught in the net. Several people watching on the shore were shocked and then cheered loudly.

    "Old Zhao, then" Liu Junhao suddenly flicked his hands, threw the old turtle in the net bag straight towards the shore, and then bent down again.

    He could see clearly that at this moment, two rows of bubbles in the mud at the bottom of the ditch quickly flashed past him, leading into the distance - and there was the old turtle. This was the trace of the old turtle's escape. With so many bubbles popping up, the old turtle wouldn't be too surprised.  It's small, at least three or four pounds.

    The people on the shore only exclaimed about the old turtle they had obtained and did not notice his actions at all.  Liu Junhao focused his attention on the place where the bubbles were rolling in the water, and continued to bend down and rush forward quickly.

    ?????????????????????????Unexpectedly, there is a pit at the bottom of the ditch, and as soon as I took two steps forward, it suddenly covered my waist.  Fortunately, the phone was thrown ashore early, otherwise it would have been damaged.  There was a hundred and ten dollars in his trouser pocket, which must have been soaked with water.  But Liu Junhao couldn't care less at the moment. The money could still be used after drying, so it was important to catch the old turtle.

    When he reached the bubbling point, Liu Junhao didn't waste any time. He took a breath and dived into the water to quickly explore in the mud.

    This old turtle caught it more smoothly, his hands just caught the old turtle's skirt.

    When he poked his head out again, the old turtle was already firmly trapped in the net.

    This one is bigger, weighing four pounds.

    Several young people on the shore could no longer bear it and jumped into the ditch one after another.

    They spent more than half an hour carefully checking the ditch. Unexpectedly, they caught two more old turtles, both weighing more than a pound, but not as big as the two caught by Liu Junhao.

    "X, there are no eels in this pit, why don't we use our brains to think about what might be a problem?" Several people saw the two big old turtles caught by Liu Junhao, and they were only filled with envy and jealousy.

    No wonder people often say, "There is gold everywhere, just waiting for the lucky ones."  This ditch is at the edge of my village, and many people usually pass by it, but no one has noticed that there is an old turtle in it.

    ¡°Besides, they also looked for eel caves by the ditch a few days ago, but couldn¡¯t find any.  Now I know there is a problem no matter how hard I turn my toes, but I didn't think much about it at the time.

    The old turtle is a rare thing to everyone, but Liu Junhao has many of them in his stone lock.  But it was an unexpected surprise to be able to touch so many.

    After such a fuss, several people no longer wanted to take advantage of others.

    Several young men carried Lao Turtle home to drink, while Liu Junhao went home wearing wet clothes.

    When we arrived at the entrance of the village, a few tourists were playing cards under the shade of a tree. Seeing the mud on his trouser legs, they laughed and asked, "Xiao Hao, did you fall into a ditch while riding an electric bike?"

    "No, I just went to catch old turtles." Liu Junhao smiled and raised his net bag.

    The crowd immediately went up and waited for an inquiry, which once again caused an amazing sound.

    A few of them even considered buying old turtles, but Liu Junhao refused, saying they wanted to make soup for his wife.

    In fact, Liu Junhao and his wife had never stewed turtle soup at all, so they scattered all they caught into the stone lock.  This is just an excuse to reject others.

    The May Day holiday has passed in a hurry, and Liu Junhao is busy again.

    His daughter-in-law said goodbye to her teaching career for the time being. There was still more than a month left for the final exam, and he had to catch up.

    But there is no need to worry about things at home. Zhang¡¯s mother now stays in Liujiagou to take care of her daughter, which makes Liu Junhao worry a lot.

    The climate is dry this year, so the wheat ripens earlier.  The wheat will be harvested in more than ten days.  As a result, it started raining heavily, and soon the water in the ditch in front of the door overflowed onto the road.

    The summer rain came and went quickly. As soon as the rain stopped, Liu Junhao led Xiaopi, put on his leather pants, picked up his net bag, and went to catch leeches under the sluice.

    The net bag is specially made of window screen, and the mesh is only made of sesame seeds.It's small, perfect for catching big leech.

    As soon as I got down to the sluice, I saw groups of fish roaring and tumbling in the depression.  Crucian carp, loach, eel, crab, lobster there are even a few carp weighing five to six kilograms.

    Liu Junhao was blinded and directly pulled the net bag into the water, and four or five fish were brought to the shore.  Twice in a row, I caught nearly three kilograms of fish, large and small.

    After catching several times, Liu Junhao no longer cared about the fish in the water and let them escape downstream.  He catches fish just for fun, and he also brings them back to feed the waterfowl in the yard.

    He and his wife don¡¯t eat fish at all now, they just try it occasionally.

    After driving the fish away, Liu Junhao caught the leech along the ditch.  This big leech moves very slowly in the water and is very easy to catch.  Now the water in the river has surged, and many locusts are adsorbed above the water surface. There are more than a dozen on a single gate.

    It didn¡¯t take much effort to wrap the locusts into the net bag. Many of them were twenty centimeters long and as thick as the belly of a finger.

    He walked along the ditch to the riverside, waving the net bag constantly on the way, and finally caught more than three kilograms of leech. He even picked up an old turtle as big as a bowl on the road, which was also thrown into the stone lock.

    Seeing her husband going out with a bucket, Zhang Qian thought she was going to catch something good.  When he came back, he stretched his head to look into the bucket.

    "Don't look at it, you will definitely scream when you look at it." Liu Junhao stopped her in a hurry.

    "What kind of fish did you catch? Is it worth my screams?" Zhang Qian was very disapproving and insisted on opening the lid of the bucket.  When I saw it was a small bucket of locusts, I screamed in surprise.

    Having lived in Liujiagou for such a long time, Zhang Qian is already brave enough. Normally, she would not be frightened when seeing water snakes, but this is the first time she has seen so many leech, especially the staggering size.

    "Liu Junhao, what are you doing catching this thing? Throw it away quickly."

    "Throw it away. This thing is worth two to three hundred yuan." He recounted to his wife the story of Fatty Wang collecting giant leech a few days ago, hoping to impress her with money.

    "That won't work, you're disgusting, take it out quickly and don't let me see it." Zhang Qian said that she didn't want her husband to put the bucket into the yard.  Even though I know this thing won't crawl out, the thought of it makes me irritated.

    Helpless, Liu Junhao had no choice but to put it outside the courtyard gate.  To prevent these things from escaping, he specially added a brick to the bucket manhole cover.
