Lu Xiaoshu agreed with a smile, couldn't wait to roll up his trousers, and eagerly looked for a direction to pass. Lu Qi smiled and stretched out his hand and said, "Give me the torch in your hand! I'll help you light it, and you grab it!"
"Okay!" Lu Xiaoshu was in the middle of his heart, and handed the torch to his brother.
On summer nights, stone frogs bigger than a fist came out of the damp cave to hunt for food and enjoy the cool air, but they happened to be targeted by people. The stone frogs all have a characteristic, that is, they are stunned when they see the light, and stare at the dancing flames with their two round eyes unblinking, like a country boy who has never been to the city watching the sky full of flames. fireworks.
"Brother, over there! Just follow it, don't move!" Lu Xiaoshu easily saw a big stone frog squatting on a huge flat rock in front of him, staring at the firelight here.
Lu Qi let out an "oh" and then fixedly held the torch and pointed it there.
Lu Xiaoshu walked over lightly, leaned forward and bent over, stretched out his hand and pinched the huge stone frog with two fingers, and pinched the huge stone frog in his hand, making it croak in surprise.
"I've got it! I've got it!" Lu Xiaoshu exclaimed excitedly, not wanting to lose his composure, he looked at his hands and ignored his feet, and slipped on a smooth cobblestone, stumbling one by one with "Ouch" Shaking from side to side made a string of water splashes.
"Be careful!" Seeing that she fell down, Lu Qi stepped forward to support her steadily, and couldn't help laughing: "This is an idiot second sister!"
"You still say!" Lu Xiaoshu was furious: "I'm fine, look, I scared you, the stone frogs all ran away!"
Lu Qi looked at her hand, and it was really empty, thinking that the little girl is being arrogant again, obviously you threw it away in fright, okay, it's my fault again. Helplessly smiled and said: "Who told you to care about the top and ignore the bottom!"
Miao Chuhe raised his head and smiled and said, "I said Xiaoshu, you didn't fall down, did you?"
Mr. Wu said by the way: "Of course she can't wrestle, and she won't admit it when she falls!"
"He didn't fall in the first place!" Lu Xiaoshu said dejectedly, "Brother, help me find it, come again!"
"Over there! See it?" Lu Qi glanced at it, and saw a big stone frog squatting in the distance, croaking and croaking unhurriedly.
Lu Xiaoshu immediately booed, and whispered: "It's done, I'll catch it!"
She walked over lightly, and was stretching out her slender hands to catch the dazzled and stupid stone frog under the light. Suddenly, she saw ripples on the originally calm water beside her, with thin ripples like fish scales. When I took a closer look and said "ah", it turned out that a small water snake also stared at this stone frog and was swimming towards this side!
"Snakes! There are snakes!" Although Lu Xiaoshu was not afraid of snakes, he didn't dare to catch them at night. Just kidding, in case he was bitten back by a snake, no matter it was poisonous or not, it would be very painful. Does it hurt
But, hehe, come and grab the stone frog with her, what a bold snake! Bending down, he took out a stone as big as two palms from the water and threw it at the snake. The snake was startled in the dark, turned around quickly, and fled from the bank quickly, burrowing into the dark grass, and instantly disappeared.
"Snake? Where are you? Are you okay!" Startled, Lu Zhong hurried over, holding her hand and looking up and down nervously.
"I'm fine, Dad, I beat you away!" Lu Xiaoshu was rather proud.
"You kid, you're messing around, be careful! Ah Qi, watch out for your second sister!" Lu Zhong heaved a sigh of relief, then turned his head and told his son again.
Lu Xiaoshu turned his head with a "Yeah", the boulder was already empty, taking advantage of the noise and chaos just now, the stone frog was frightened and ran away without a trace.
Lu Xiaoshu was very depressed, while Lu Qi laughed heartlessly, and teased: "I said, Second Sister, you are really the killer of stone frogs, run away when you see one!"
"Underestimate people, it was all an accident just now! I call it a late bloomer, and it takes a long time! Just wait, if I catch the next one, you will eat it raw?" Lu Xiaoshu curled his lips in disbelief.
"Nonsense!" Lu Qi laughed.
As a result, when catching the third one, the stone frog was obtained well, but when Lu Xiaoshu saw a huge seven-star fish swimming past his feet slowly, he was excited and without hesitation. He flicked the stone frog in his hand, bent down and grabbed the seven-star fish with both hands.
This seven-star fish is more than a foot long, and its width is wider than three fingers. It is quite big. This kind of fish tastes the most delicious, and it is relatively rare. Lu Xiaoshu will not let it go when he sees it.
"I got it! I got it!" Lu Xiaoshu was overjoyed for a moment, grabbing the seven-star fish with both hands, twisting his body and wagging his tail vigorously in her hands, how could he get rid of it
"Quick, brother, the basket is here!" Lu Xiaoshu hurriedly walked towards Lu Qi, put the huge seven-star fish into the bamboo basket tied around Lu Qi's waist, and shouted happily: "Father, I caught it!" What a big seven-star fish!"
Lu Zhong smiled and boasted casually, "My daughter is really capable", but Miao Chuhe laughed and said, "Xiao Shu, where is your stone frog?"
Lu Xiaoxia pretended not to hear, and said: "My fish is so big, it must be bigger than yours!"
Lu Qi smiled and pointed not far away: "Second sister, look quickly, there are stone frogs there, heh, there are two of them!"
Lu Xiaoshu looked over, sure enough, the two were on the same boulder, not disturbing each other, and had nothing to do with each other. But Lu Xiaoshu felt that he seemed to have committed an offense against the stone frog tonight, so he was a little hesitant.
"Brother, brother! There are so many fish in Songxi River! If you catch them, you can keep them in our fishpond!" Lu Xiaoshu purposely didn't look at the stone frog, and started searching the water instead.
Evening is the time when many fish come out to look for food, and the ecological environment is relatively primitive. There are countless fish living in this stream. Lu Xiaoshu bent down to look for it carefully, and he felt dazzled. Swarms of fish floated leisurely from his feet. However, the speed is not fast, but it is not slow, she has not yet decided which one to attack, he has already swam past freely, and disappeared in the shadow of the dark night in a blink of an eye. It made her feel a little helpless for a while.
Lu Qi laughed and said, "What a silly second sister!" He leaned close to her and said in a low voice, "Your aim has always been good, have you lost your kung fu?"
"Brother is right!" Lu Xiaoshu suddenly realized after he reminded him that he was good at martial arts, and he could hit a dart hidden weapon, wouldn't it be the same if he replaced it with a stone? Then he bent down and took out a handful of smooth, round and small pebbles from the stream, picked out the one that was suitable, and when he caught sight of a fish, he flicked the stone with his index finger and flew away, hitting the head of the fish. The fish in the water passed out and floated to the surface.
Lu Xiaoshu giggled triumphantly, and picked up the fainted fish casually. Such as concocting one after another, it didn't take long to gain a lot.
Lu Qi was itching to watch, and couldn't help but picked up small stones and hit the target, but it was always a little bit short. The fish was frightened, but it was unscathed, and it swished away quickly. up! Lu Qi was suddenly surprised, hurt his self-esteem, and couldn't believe it. He aimed clearly, obviously his aim was not bad, that girl Xiao Shu, why did the fish escape
Lu Qi, who didn't believe in evil, continued to work hard, but ended in failure again. Lu Xiaoshu gloated and gloated beside him.
Lu Qi was helpless and puzzled, "What's going on? Could it be that I really regressed?"
Lu Xiaoshu laughed and said, "Brother is so stupid! It's not that you've stepped back, but that you aimed too accurately! When you hit the stone, don't aim directly at the fish's head, but land a little in front of the fish's head. Now you know?"
Lu Qi was stunned, and asked in puzzlement, "Why is this? This fish swims faster than I can throw stones out of my hand?" The stone has to be in front of it to hit it right
Lu Xiaoshu thought, how can I explain this to you? This is the principle of light refraction, and even if I tell you, you can’t understand it, let alone agree with it. Then he said domineeringly: "Anyway, that's what I did, you'll know if you try it?"
Lu Qi was skeptical, and tried once according to what she said, and sure enough, the fish froze, slowly swung a few times, and floated to the surface of the water without moving.
"How about it! I'm right!" Lu Xiaoshu proudly stepped forward to scoop up the fish.
Lu Qi scratched his head: "Evil! It's really evil!"
"You don't care if he's evil or not! It's fine if he can catch fish!"
"makes sense!"
The two brothers and sisters laughed and had a great time catching fish. Lu Qi dismembered a small fish with a sharp stone, tied the fish's head with long aquatic plants, and let it float in the water. The smell of blood dissipated quickly, attracting schools of fish of various sizes. The two brothers and sisters sat and waited for the volunteers to take the bait, and within a short time most of the baskets were filled with fish.
Lu Qi laughed and said, "It's too much, let's forget it! Let's go find Youyu!"
"Well, okay!" Lu Xiaoshu also felt that this job was too unskilled, and it would be nice to change it to another kind of job, and readily agreed.
Oil fish is a kind of wild fish unique to this mountain stream. It is not very big, and the biggest one is only slightly longer than the middle finger and slightly bigger than the thumb. Very smooth, likes to live under culvert stones. The reason for this name is that when frying it, you only need to put a little oil, cook it slowly, and it will slowly overflow a lot of oil, and the fragrance will soon spread out, and it will become soft and fragrant after frying. The brittle bones taste like the whole head and bones are put into the mouth and chewed, so there is no need to waste a little bit, and the taste is extremely delicious.
Lu Qi untied the fish basket and placed it on the shore, and the two brothers and sisters searched for a fork in the stream, carefully uncovering sticky and slippery stones covered with fine moss, looking for the delicacy in the Songxi River.
