Carry a fountain with you

Chapter 112 Bezoar
Liu Junhao was afraid of missing Zhang Qian's call, so he played computer games in the house after dinner.It wasn't until after three o'clock in the afternoon that Zhang Qian called and said that she was about to arrive in Qingshan Town.

The sky was still gloomy, and it seemed that there would be heavy rain, so when Liu Junhao went out, he specially took two raincoats in case of accidents.

Not long after he left the village, Dou Da's raindrops began to fall, and thanks to his raincoat, he didn't get drenched.

The water flows downhill, and the splashing rainwater pours along the mountain road to the river and stone road.After a while, the road was full of rainwater.

Now the road is all paved with river stones, so Liu Junhao's journey is smooth.However, the rain became heavier and heavier, and soon the sky and the earth were covered with mist, and no one could be seen from a few feet away.

When we approached the town, the rain had completely submerged the flat road, and it was difficult to ride a bicycle.The rainwater brought up by the rotation of the wheels kept splashing on the trouser legs, and soon wetted a large area of ​​his trousers.

Seeing that there was no way to ride a bicycle during this period, Liu Junhao had no choice but to roll up his trouser legs and push the bicycle forward.

It took more than 20 minutes for him to rush to the station.

It is said to be a station, but in fact it is just a signboard of "Qingshan Town Station" hanging on the side of the street, and there is not even a ticket office around.

Liu Junhao saw that the bus hadn't arrived yet, so he tied his bicycle under the eaves of the house, and then stood in the corner to avoid the rain.

The rain intensified, and soon the low-lying parts of the street were half knee-deep in water.Zhang Qian had originally agreed to come back at 04:30 p.m., but it was already [-]:[-] and there was no sign of the bus.The person who picked up the car with him also slowly became anxious, murmuring in a low voice that the car might not be damaged on the road.

Seeing that waiting like this was not an option, Liu Junhao ran to a place selling tobacco and alcohol in the rain, and borrowed someone's public phone to call Zhang Qian.

As soon as Zhang Qian answered the phone, she immediately spoke in a hurry.It really made those crows say that the car broke down on the road.The driver is now calling for someone to come and fix it, saying it will take at least an hour.

It was raining and it was dark early, and it was estimated that it would be completely dark in another hour.Liu Junhao was a little worried, so he told her not to worry, and immediately hired a numb to rush over.

He ran to the rain shelter and told the news that the bus broke down on the way to the person who picked up the bus, and everyone started to scold this goddamn god.It's just that they are not very keen on hiring numbness, and want to wait and see, maybe the bus will be repaired soon.

Liu Junhao stopped persuading and directly found a numb car.After negotiating the price, I hung the bicycle to the back and went to pick up Zhang Qian in the rain.

The road is also full of white flowers. From time to time, you can see crucian carp shells in Sheung Shui jumping on the road.The numb master originally wanted to stop to pick up two, but Liu Junhao urged him all the way to hurry.

It took them half an hour to arrive at the accident site, only to find that the driver was repairing the car in the rain with his butt up.The bright engine oil covered the puddles, and the smell was very pungent.

Under the envious eyes of the people in the car, Zhang Qian loaded her luggage into the car.Although this numbness is small, it is still very spacious for the two of them.Liu Junhao saw that there were still vacancies, so he ran to the bus and asked if anyone would be willing to go numb, and a couple immediately stood up with their children in their arms.

Four adults are a bit cramped in the car.As soon as the man got into the car, he thanked him repeatedly, saying that the couple went to the county hospital to see a doctor for a child, and now they were in a hurry to go home to make medicine.

By the time Nu Nu rushed to the town, the sky had already darkened, and many people started to hold lamps.

After the couple paid the fare, they thanked each other again, while Liu Junhao and Zhang Qian continued to sit numbly and drive towards Liujiagou.

Just arrived in the village, when they saw two people carrying a fishing boat towards Dayantang, when they met Liu Junhao, they shouted to him to come and help, saying that Liu Wuye's cattle had fallen into the pond.

Liu Junhao became anxious when he heard that, pushed the car towards Zhang Qian, and followed them.

It turned out that Liu Wuye scattered his cattle on the hillside to graze in the afternoon. Because he was worried that the rain would wet the straw stack, he went home first to build the straw stack.Unexpectedly, the heavy rain came as soon as it was said, making the scalper dizzy, and finally broke the rein.

The thing wasn't completely dazed, and it knew how to run towards the village.

It's just that the rain was falling so fast that the ox couldn't see the way at all, so it plunged into the weir pond.

Yellow cattle are no better than water buffaloes, they don't know how to maw water at all, so they can only moo and scream in the weir pond and kick their hooves towards the bank.

The slope of this section was very steep, and the ground was slippery in rainy days, so the ox struggled a few times without jumping ashore, but finally sank to the bottom with a bellyful of water.

And Mr. Liu Wu over there covered all the straw stacks, only to remember that his cattle were still on the hillside, so he hurried to pick them up.But he searched the entire hillside in the rain, but he didn't see the ox. In the end, he only found half of the rein. He also guessed that the ox must have run back to the village, so he came back and asked from house to house.

Hearing that his cattle were lost, many people came out in raincoats to help find them, but no one noticed anything strange in the weir pond.

It was when a few brats were standing under the eaves to shelter from the rain that they suddenly saw a dark thing floating in the weir pond, and took a light with a portable lamp, only to find that it was the scalper of Mr. Liu's family.

I don't know how the cow was tossing, and it was blown into the middle of the water by the wind.The closest place to the shore is five or six feet away, and it is impossible to reach it with bamboo poles, so everyone thought of a way to salvage it with fishing boats.

When Liu Junhao and others rushed over, a lot of people had already gathered there, and the yellow cattle could be vaguely seen floating on the surface of the water, obviously drinking a lot of water in their stomachs.

Everyone rushed to throw the wooden boat into the weir pond, and Liu Junhao and two young men volunteered to punting the boat to salvage it.

Liujiagou is next to a big river. There used to be many fishermen in the village, and the older generation made a living by fishing.However, because of the barrier of the mountains, the fish and shrimp cannot be transported out at all, so the price has always been very cheap, which is not as cost-effective as farming.Therefore, no one makes a living by fishing now, and the fishing boats in the village have almost been destroyed.

This fishing boat was picked up from Liu Guangju's house. It was a rare eagle boat.

The eagle boat is very different from ordinary fishing boats. It is composed of two small boats connected in parallel.The bow of the ship is slightly tilted, like two crescent moons.There is a gap more than two feet wide between the two boats, just enough to accommodate a person's shoulders.

The wood used to make eagle boats is generally paulownia, which is extremely light, and a boat weighs only fifty or sixty catties.After catching fish every day, the fishermen will clean the eagle boat, pick it up with a bamboo pole, and directly carry the eagle boat away.

However, although the eagle boat is light, it requires high skills to hold it up. Only when you have a good balance can you slide forward.It was the first time for the three of them to use this kind of boat, and they foolishly got a few oars to move vigorously on the water.As a result, the force was uneven, and the eagle boat kept swinging on the shore, and the further it rowed, the farther it was from the scalper.

"Forget about being stupid, you brats. You don't even know how to row a boat. Don't say that you are from Liujiagou when you go out." Liu Guangju hurried over at this time, and when he saw how they rowed a boat, he started talking. He yelled loudly, "Two people get down, I'll go up and row the boat"

After he jumped onto the side of the boat, he pushed away the oar that Liu Junhao offered and said, "Eagle boats must be supported by bamboo poles." Someone on the shore had already handed over a two-foot-long thick bamboo pole.

After all, he is an old hand, he used a bamboo pole to lightly tap the water a few times, and then slid the eagle boat to the side of the ox.

Insert the bamboo pole into the water, and the eagle boat will be firmly fixed there.The two of them tied the front and rear feet of the cattle to the boat with ropes, and then slowly rowed towards the shore.

Although the ox weighed six or seven hundred catties, it was very light in the water.

After paddling to the shore, there were already six or seven people waiting there.Three times, five times and two divisions, the ox was tied up in a big way, and then two sticks of wood were used to string together, and eight people lifted the ox.

The belly of the cow was swollen with soaking, and it might not taste good overnight, so when he arrived at Liu Wuye's house, someone called Liu Guangquan and asked him to open the intestines of the cattle.

The cow had already drowned, so killing it was particularly easy.There was no need for anyone to go up to help, Liu Guangquan cut it into pieces by himself.

From the beginning to the end, Mr. Liu's face was always in pain. This yellow cow was originally a cow he bought at the cattle store in Chunshang, and he expected it to give birth to a calf. He didn't expect this to happen in just a few months.

They are all from the same village, and they can help, so as soon as the beef was put on the case, everyone bought the beef for three catties and five catties, and sold more than half of the beef in a while.

Originally, everyone wanted to pay 15 yuan a catty at the price in the town, but Liu Wuye insisted on not agreeing, and sold everything at ten yuan a catty.

After such a toss, it was completely dark, and Liu Junhao also brought five or six catties of beef home.

Unexpectedly, Zhang Qian was still sitting and playing computer at her home. Seeing him coming in, she quickly stood up and said, "Are you cold? I boiled some bowls of ginger soup for you in the kitchen just now. I'll bring it to you right away."

"It's a bit cold. How did you come in? The panther didn't bite you?" Liu Junhao took off his raincoat and sneezed immediately.

"Xiaopi recognizes me," Zhang Qian said, and walked into the room with a big bowl of ginger soup.

Although the ginger soup is still ginger soup, Liu Junhao drank it warmly, and felt a little proud.In just a few months, Zhang Qian already knows how to make ginger soup.

Liu Wuye woke up early in the morning and began to deal with the things in the cow's belly, throwing them all into the tub for rinsing.When he touched the cow's gallbladder, he suddenly felt a small hard lump inside.He immediately realized that this thing might be bezoar, so he ecstatically called Liu Guangquan over to identify it.

After Liu Guangquan cut the gallbladder with a knife, he poured out the khaki-colored bile inside and found a cinnabar-colored object, about the size of a small egg.

It's just that although he has killed many cattle, this is the first time he has seen this thing.So I didn't dare to confirm it, so I sent people to the street to find Lao Guo who killed the cow.

The news that Liu Wuye's thin cow killed the bezoar soon spread throughout the village, and many people ran over to see it, even Liu Junhao was no exception.

That thing suddenly looked a bit like the yolk in a pickled egg, with a bit of orange.
