i have a mountain

Chapter 460
With a mysterious smile on his face, Aowei took out a long wire board from the bag, with something like a braided wire wrapped around it. Yu Fei knew this, a fishing artifact, a strong horse line, known as the fish that can be pulled without anything Line, and there is a large fishhook at the bottom of it.

When Yu Fei was still looking at it curiously, Aowei turned over the back of the wire board to show him. Behind it was an iron rod with long and short chopsticks, and a ring was circled on the top end.

"You won't tell me that you want to use this for fishing?" Yu Fei asked.

Ao Wei shook his head and said, "Guess again."

After thinking for a while, Yu Fei tentatively said: "Could it be used to catch rice field eels, but this hook is wrong, it is obviously used for fishing..."

Thinking of a possibility, Yu Fei changed his face and said, "You don't want to use this to catch old turtles, do you?"

"Smart." Ao Wei snapped his fingers and said, "This is for catching old turtles. The boss told me that as long as old turtles open their mouths, they won't be able to escape, and if there is a very heavy turtle Don't try to break the thread."

"Is there a hole in your brain or the boss's?" Yu Fei said, "Don't you know what's going on in this river?"

"What's the situation?" Aowei really asked with a blank face.

Yu Fei raised his forehead and said, "Have you ever seen someone selling old turtles on the street before? Counting from the time you can remember, the ones brought from other places are not counted, just those who often fish in this river."

Ao Wei thought about it seriously and said: "It seems that I have seen it before. Is this the situation? Is there no old turtle in this river?"

After looking at him for a while, Yu Fei said: "Yes, not only there, but they are all big."

"How big is it?" Aowei's eyes sparkled immediately.

"How big is it?" Yu Fei squinted at him and said, "It's as big as a square table."

"Yes..." Aowei's eyes immediately widened: "Are you kidding, the square table, just the old-fashioned square table in our house?"

Yu Fei didn't speak, just nodded, and Aowei gasped immediately: "Is this too exaggerated? That means that an old turtle is about two or three square meters in size?"

"Why do you think I said that?" Yu Fei said: "If you're okay, go back and ask our previous generation. They have seen it, not only seen it, but also almost caught it."

"They almost caught it, why can't we catch it?" Aowei asked, "Hey~ how did they catch it?"

"How did you catch it?" Yu Fei glanced at him and said, "Three people were lying on the tortoise's shell, but they couldn't hold it down. How do you think they caught it?"

"I'll go, Niucha! Lie on the back of the old turtle." Aowei was inexplicably excited: "Then why didn't they catch it?"

"Haven't you heard the adults talk about this?" Yu Fei asked: "People as old as us know this, and you are not much younger than me. Why haven't you heard of it?"

Aowei's mood immediately became a little depressed: "It's not like you don't know my situation."

That's right, this kid was protected by Fifth Uncle like an egg since he was a child, and he took it with him wherever he went. If he was given two wings, he would definitely be able to stage a fairy tale with chicks.

And when he grows up, he will be busy in the town all the time. It is normal if he has never heard of this matter. After all, even adults are unwilling to talk about it.

After thinking about it for a while, Yu Fei said, "This matter must have started more than 40 years ago..."

Aowei regained his energy immediately, threw the fishhook in his hand onto the car, pulled Yu Fei to sit on the stool under the simple shed, and handed him a cigarette.

Yu Fei smiled and said: "You have to listen to me, I'm afraid you won't dare to go down the river in the future."

"I'm not afraid." Ao Wei patted his chest and said, "Can we old man still be afraid of those legends? They are all fake, or why haven't I seen the female ghost in Liaozhai?"

Yu Fei chuckled: "Liaozhai is really something that people have imagined, and the one in our river is real. Hundreds of people have seen it with their own eyes."

"Talk, talk, talk quickly." Aowei looked excited, like a newborn calf who is not afraid of tigers.

Yu Fei looked at the two little girls who were walking towards the kitchen hand in hand, turned around and said to Ao Wei: "The river behind us was just a small river before, you know that?"

"Who doesn't know this?" Aowei said: "It seems that more than 40 years ago, this river was widened and deepened by artificially digging."

"Then do you know that there was a gutter in that small river?" Yu Fei asked.

"Gutter?" Aowei had an inexplicable expression on his face, and his eyes were still rolling around.

"What are you thinking about?" Yu Fei slapped it across the face: "This is a gutter in the river. It's a name given by the big guy, not the gutter you think."

Ao Wei rubbed his head and smiled: "I said, why is there a gutter in the river, so it is like this!"

"You are hopeless." Yu Fei said angrily, "I don't know what's going on in my head every day?"

"No, no." Aowei said with a smile: "Just keep talking, I still want to hear what's going on."

Yu Fei glanced at him and continued: "The river in the past was only seven or eight meters wide, and the water on both sides was very shallow. Only when it was near the middle of the river, there was a gutter with a width of two or three meters. Someone once measured it. However, the deepest place is said to be more than ten meters."

"Impossible?" Aowei said: "The surface of a river is only seven or eight meters wide, and the depth of the water is more than ten meters. Such a river is unlikely to exist."

Yu Fei stretched out his hand and pointed back, "The river is the evidence. The gutter should still be at the bottom of the river. If you have the ability, you can check it yourself."

Ao Wei laughed twice: "Then let's talk about it later when there is a chance."

"Although there may be suspicions of exaggeration, I believe there will not be too much difference." Yu Fei continued: "Did you see that there are two or three long strips between our side and the bridge in the town?" Shallow pit?"

Ao Wei nodded, and Yu Fei continued: "That's where the water pumps were installed before. When I was working on the river, there were three machines that never stopped. Just that, the water in the gutter has never bottomed out."

Aowei opened his mouth wide, looking like he couldn't believe it, but his eyes were rolling around, not knowing what he was thinking.

"Everyone in the older generation knows that with the existence of that gutter, the big fish in the river have never stopped." Yu Fei continued: "The old turtle the size of a square table was discovered when he was doing river work. It just surfaced within the scope of the river project in our village."

"When that old turtle appeared, I don't know if he wanted to go ashore or something. At that time, there was a guy in our village named Hai Hai, a very strong guy."

"Navy?" Aowei was thoughtful: "I seem to have heard of this name before."

"You must have heard of it." Yu Fei said firmly: "His grave is in the field east of your house."

"I'll go~" Aowei bounced far away: "Why is he in our field?"

Yu Fei chuckled: "You don't even think about it, maybe he was buried in his own land before, but it has been more than 40 years, and after several rounds of land distribution and land exchange, that land finally fell into your family."

"makes sense……"

Before Aowei finished speaking, his eyes widened immediately: "Over 40 years? You don't want to say that he died in the year he was working on the river?"

Yu Fei nodded, he shivered immediately, and asked cautiously: "Did it happen when you caught that old turtle?"

"No." Yu Fei said, "After that."

Aowei breathed a sigh of relief immediately: "It's okay, it's okay, I feel more at ease when you say that."

"Be more relieved?" Yu Fei looked at him playfully: "Can you really feel relieved? You must know that he didn't even find a shadow in the end, only found a piece of rotten clothes, which was over the gutter."

"What's the matter?" Ao Wei said nonchalantly: "There are so many people who fall into the river every year. I have nothing to worry about. Besides, I wasn't there at the time!"

"Yeah, don't worry, wait for me to finish first." Yu Fei nodded slightly and said, "When that old turtle floated up, everyone was shocked and thought it was a monster."

"The navy was the first to see clearly that it was an old turtle. He jumped onto the old turtle's shell first. As soon as the old turtle felt someone on his back, he immediately accelerated and wanted to swim back to the deep water area. , everyone can see clearly, it is an old turtle the size of a square table."

"At that time, an old turtle the size of a plate could be exchanged for a pack of cigarettes. How much would one have to change for such a big one, so two boys jumped over from the other side of the river and pressed them on the old turtle's back together. , other people still want to go, but there is no room on the old turtle shell."

"That old turtle is quite strong, and his speed is not too slow when he is carrying three young men on his back. Seeing that he is about to reach the deepest part of the gutter, the navy is in a hurry, so he takes out a hammer from his waist, and hits it on the head. Give that old turtle a shot."

"That old turtle was also unprepared. This blow was very solid. For a moment, its speed slowed down. As soon as it saw that this had an effect, the navy immediately called the other two to use the hammer."

"The old turtle quickly became overwhelmed during this period of hammering, and when the three of them were about to succeed, the old turtle suddenly went berserk, turned sideways in the water, and threw the unprepared three people to the ground. into the water, and it turned around and hit the three of them."

"Then run quickly!" Ao Wei couldn't help shouting: "How strong is the old turtle with the size of a square table, let alone a human being, even a boat can't stand it!"

Yu Fei glanced at him and said: "Well, you are right, but tell me, how do you run in waist-deep water? No matter how fast you run, you can swim through the water Old turtle?"
