(The city¡¯s new book list has reached number 19, and it is still six or seven places away from the list. My brothers¡¯ recommendation vote must be for fishing! Since I sent the contract a little late, I missed the recommendation, so I have to continue streaking next week. , so I can only hope to be included in the new book list! Yuse¡¯s collection is a bit small, and those who don¡¯t have a collection must collect it!)
In summer, the countryside is not quiet at night. The sound of frogs croaking in the fields is comparable to thunder.
I drank too much wine by the river, and my head hurt. I lay on the bed, tossing and turning, and couldn't fall asleep.
Suddenly I remembered the golden blood eel I caught in the morning. He simply climbed out of bed and walked to the main room. The dark fish basket still stood quietly in the main room.
Lifting the fish basket up by the riverside, I didn¡¯t feel much weight.
"Did the golden blood eel escape?" Jiangbian was shocked. It would be a pity if the golden blood eel that he finally obtained escaped.
I quickly put the fish basket under the light and took a closer look. I was surprised to find that the golden blood eel was still in the fish basket, as big as an earthworm. When looking inside from the riverside, the golden-threaded eel twisted its body and seemed to be unable to find the enemy in any direction. The golden eel is in the fish basket, and it seems that it cannot see the riverside outside the fish basket.
Why is it so light? Jiangbian was extremely confused. He looked left and right with the fish basket, but he didn't see anything. The fish basket weighs about two or three kilograms, but if you put an eel weighing about ten kilograms, it still weighs two or three kilograms.
People who grew up in rural areas have a unique skill, that is, they can guess the approximate weight of an item by weighing it with their hands. Jiangbian has been very smart when he was a child, and his hands are even more accurate. This right hand is a steel scale. If you weigh items within a few kilograms with your hands, there will be no difference in weight.
"Isn't it true that I have become a martial arts master after practicing some internal skills? This hand is so strong that more than ten kilograms are like two or three kilograms?" Jiang Bian thought to himself.
I casually picked up the bench at home and felt that the weight was still the same as before. I lifted the fish basket with my hands and it was still very light, no more than three kilograms.
hey-hey! Jiang Bian sneered, thinking strangely.
He reached in and pinched the golden blood eel with one hand. In the fish basket, the golden blood eel was as gentle as an earthworm, motionless at all.
But as soon as he came out of the fish basket, his ferocious nature was revealed. Fortunately, the riverside had been on guard for a long time and had already grasped the golden-threaded blood eel's neck tightly. So when the golden blood eel came out of the fish basket, it tried its best to resist and opened its mouth. It wanted to break free at any time and attack the riverside, but it was unable to do anything because it was tightly held by the riverside.
The golden blood eel twisted desperately, its entire body tightly wrapped around the right elbow of the riverside.
"Haha, it's quite life-threatening!" Jiangbian smiled at the golden-threaded blood eel.
This ten kilogram gold-threaded blood eel is quite powerful. If Jiangbian hadn't gained strength recently, there would be nothing he could do with it.
Putting the golden blood eel back into the fish basket, something strange happened. The golden blood eel, which was struggling violently, immediately regained its composure. The body wrapped around Jiang Bian's hand like an iron wire also quickly softened, and Jiang Bian's hand suddenly became softer. Once loose, the golden-threaded blood eel slipped from the hands of the riverside.
Jiangbian naturally understood the extraordinary nature of this fish basket. More than ten kilograms of golden blood eels were put in, and they became as small as earthworms. The weight of the fish basket did not increase at all, and the unruly golden blood eels arrived here. The inside is as honest as an earthworm, which means that this fish basket is as precious as the fishing rod.
"Woof woof! Woof woof!" the little gray dog ??barked loudly outside the door.
The riverside was afraid that the little gray dog ??would get lice, so he built a kennel for it outside. However, the door of Jiang Bian's house was not tight, and the little gray dog ??could easily get in. Jiang Bian taught him many times before settling down outside.
Not long after, Jiangbian seemed to hear a burst of footsteps coming from outside. It sounded like there should be three or four people. It should have passed through here. But the riverside is very strange. Where are these people going so late?
The little gray dog ??refused to let go and kept barking.
"Stupid dog! Come here! I'll eat your flesh!" the man said harshly.
Another person whispered, "Don't be troublesome! Snakehead, how do you do things? Haven't you already taken care of all the dogs in Banshan Village?"
"This guy's little puppy doesn't usually bark, so I don't even know it."
"Forget it, let's go quickly, no one will pay attention to a puppy barking."
The riverside was too far away to hear clearly what they were saying, but the voices of these people were very unfamiliar. I thought it was someone's relative from the village who came over. It was too late to play cards, or for some other reason, I delayed going back until this time. Jiangbian's house didn't have a clock, so he didn't know what time it was.
"Xiao Hui! Come back quickly, stop screaming!" Jiangbian shouted.
The little gray dog ??chased not far away, and when it heard its owner¡¯s call, it whirled back and came back.
When we arrived at the door of the house, we called out a few times unwillingly.
After those people heard the sound from the river, their footsteps couldn't help but speed up a lot.
There were some suspicions on the riverside, but I didn¡¯t think much about it. There was nothing to steal this season.
The lights were turned off by the riverside, and I fell asleep again.
I don¡¯t know how long I slept, but suddenly I heard loud shouting outside, and the little gray dog ??started barking again.
"The cow was stolen! It came from this direction! Everyone, hurry up and see if you can catch up!"
This is the voice of Lao Liu. Lao Liu did not go out to work, but worked hard at home, raising a buffalo and planting seven or eight acres of land.
It¡¯s about to be a double grab, and the cow is his life. If the cow is lost, his life will be lost by eight out of ten. Lao Liu's family is not rich, and this buffalo is the most valuable thing in their family.
These days, the price of beef has risen to more than 30 yuan per pound, and a cow can be sold for several thousand yuan. Therefore, those who are not doing their jobs have decided to focus on farming cattle.
Jiangbian quickly got up, opened the door, and heard the old lady crying.
"What should I do? There is no way to survive! My family sleeps in the cow pen every day. I just had a cold in the past two days, so I went back to the house to sleep. Who would have thought that the killer would be able to catch up with me this day? What a coincidence?"
When we walked out by the river, it was still very early in the morning, and Liu Huijun was there comforting the mother-in-law of Lao Liu's family.
"Sixth sister-in-law! Don't worry, aren't you catching up now? They haven't gone far yet. How fast can a cow go? There are no big boats at night. A cow that big can't walk on water. They If you want to sell cattle in the town, you have to go through Lue Mountain. We will call the police here first, and then split up to stop them." Liu Huijun is a capable person in the village, and the arrangements are very orderly.
Liu Huijun raised her head and glanced at the riverside, "Sixth sister-in-law's cattle were stolen. The thief was really hateful. He first stunned all the dogs in the village, then demolished one wall of Sixth sister-in-law's cattle pen and removed it. The cattle were taken away."
Jiangbian slapped his thigh and said, "Oh, those people who passed here last night turned out to be cattle thieves!"
"Why, did you see it last night?" Liu Huijun asked.
"Uncle Man! Did you see who stole my cow?" Lao Liu's mother-in-law seemed to have seen the life-saving straw.
Jiang Bian said with some guilt, "Yesterday I went to Secretary Li's house to have a drink. When I got home, I fell asleep on the bed. When I was thirsty, I got up to drink water. At that time, my little Hui was barking outside. I thought he was passing by. Yes, I didn¡¯t care. How did you know they were cattle thieves? I wish I had known and come out to take a look! There should be three or four of them." @ws
