Chapter 417 Unknown creature in the tank

Since Zhao Yubao and his family came in advance after hearing the news about Lao Turtle, they must have visited the reservoir when they came here.

It's the beginning of summer.

The four mountains are clear and green, and the scenery is beautiful.

Taking advantage of the afternoon sunshine, standing on the slope and looking into the distance, my eyes were filled with lush green, and all the trees supported a dense canopy.

When the mountain breeze blows, the deep green in the distance and the shallow golden yellow nearby flow together like waves.

The light yellow color is from the wheat fields outside the village. The waves of wheat are blown by the mountain wind, which is full of pastoral atmosphere. It makes several old people who have been in the city for a long time refreshing and full of joy.

When they got excited, they went to the ground to pick a few tender wheat ears. Chen Ling helped them make a fire and roast two handfuls in the open space for them to taste.

"Tsk, this smell makes me feel a bit like before."

Zhao Yubao tasted the roasted wheat grains carefully. As the aroma filled his mouth and nose, some indescribable emotions came to his heart, and his nose couldn't help but feel a little sour.

Shan Mao's father pointed at him and joked: "Hahaha, you old Zhao, you are still sentimental when you go to the countryside."

At this time, when he heard Lao Niwai's last words, Zhao Dahai suddenly burst out laughing: "Haha, you still sacrificed yourself. Uncle Niwai, what you said is interesting. You made this thing seem alive."

Everyone was amazed for a while, and the two old men quickly asked Chen Ling if there were any other interesting things at home, and then slowly walked to the reservoir while rubbing the roasted wheat ears and eating them.

On the north bank of the dam, there are peanut fields and scattered ponds. Under the afternoon sunshine, there are four or five cattle, large and small, lying in the shade, chewing slowly while accompanied by loud croaking frogs.

Green grass by the pond.

"Dad, old Uncle Zhong, Fugui has a nest of weasels at home, and he has raised two nests of mountain civets this year. After visiting the reservoir later, go back to the farm and ask Fugui to call them out for you."

If the chickens and ducks in the mountains are harmed.

When Lao Niwai heard the word "Jiangbao", his eyes lit up: "Okay, Chunkye, I thought you, a savage who spends all day in the mountains and forests, didn't know about Jianbao, so I specifically wanted you to come to my house to have a look.

Increase your knowledge."

When your eldest brother first became a teacher, there was a chemistry teacher in his school. After asking others, he found out what kind of bacteria was causing this thing in the old vinegar. It was harmless and harmless and could be eaten.

The layout is no different from other houses in Chenwangzhuang. There is a small vegetable garden in a remote corner of the wall, and there are many large and small water tanks in the courtyard.

This old man is very obsessed with money. Last year, when everyone learned that Li Hongqi came to the village to explore the situation in and out of the village in order to find treasures, he was the most patient. In addition, his home is right at the entrance of the village, as long as Li Hongqi and Wang Chunyuan stay at night

When I go to the small temple in Donggang, this old man keeps watching, sometimes until late at night, he is very energetic.

Then he put his head in front of Chen Ling and Weng's son-in-law, and murmured in a low voice: "I thought it was the legendary Tai Sui. It's a pity that it grew out of jealousy, so it's definitely not the case. Otherwise, I would definitely be able to do it."

Big news is out."

"This is the vinegar tank at home..."

There is generally less vinegar here, but a lot of various sauces and pickles.

"Huh? Dad, do you know what this is?"

Several old people were surprised when they heard this.

What the father-in-law said was really beyond the expectations of Lao Niwai and his wife. Lao Niwai glared and said: "Okay, save the industry. It doesn't matter if you know that this thing is vinegar treasure. Do you know how to eat it? My son-in-law doesn't make vinegar at home.

I’ve heard about how to eat this stuff.

The weasel stole the chicken and bit the chicken's neck.

Chen Ling told him that Shan Lizi also stole it.

Chen Ling joked as he walked this way after hearing this.

On the south bank of the dam, on this side of the reservoir, there are dense reeds growing along the water, surrounding the shore in a long circle.

I was still happily walking around, enjoying the refreshing breeze by the river and admiring the scenery.

Chen Ling was speechless and laughed.

Chen Ling smiled: "It can be raised. A while ago, there was a nest of foxes living outside our orchard, and they often ran home to find Xiao Jin to play with. However, this spring, the big fox ran back to the mountains again, and only three little foxes were still alive.

Come back from time to time..."

Lao Niwai now lives with his eldest son Chen Jiang.

"Hey, why don't you know this? Just be jealous. Uncle Niwai is right. This is really good stuff."

At this time, in the reservoir, you can only see groups of ducks and some water birds playing in the distance. After summer, the reeds are tall and lush, and there are many aquatic plants, which greatly affects the sight. Even if there are old turtles, I think

It's not easy to see an old turtle.

This fat man has been to the village many times. He has also built high-voltage lines, replaced transformers and planted telephone poles. He is very familiar with the villagers and can make a few jokes with everyone.

The mountain raccoon steals the chicken and bites the chicken's butt.

"Come here quickly, I'll show you something good."

However, several elderly people are not discouraged.

"Oh, it's a mountain cat. I've heard of it. It's just a wild cat. Can this thing steal the chickens and ducks in the village?"

His mother-in-law, Guo Xiuju, quickly took out a bowl from the kitchen. Her hands were also washed clean. She reached into the vinegar vat and fished out a strange round cake-shaped thing.

Wang Cunye saw that the fat man was laughing so hard that he was almost out of breath, so he slapped him: "Hey, Dahai, don't laugh. According to my chemistry teacher, this thing is really alive..."

Don't look at what Old Man Zhong said about going to the reservoir quickly, but he was looking everywhere on the road, stopping while walking, and couldn't walk fast at all.

The yard is quite large.

This thing looks like a big piece of fat meat. When it is fished into the bowl, it still has a soft, greasy, slippery and bouncy feeling. In an instant, the air is filled with a strong and pungent smell of acetic acid.

Zhao Dahai and his family had never seen this thing before. They were stunned when they saw it. They covered their noses and took two steps back. They subconsciously thought that this must not be a treasure. They must be jealous.

I also teach your big brother how to eat.

"Take it away, take it away, can your uncle still talk nonsense?"

Zhao Dahai squatted in front of the vinegar vat and glanced left and right, "It's good to have a son-in-law who can make vinegar. If you are rich, don't look down on the vinegar vat. There is no place to hide treasures. I have also heard that some people have dug out treasures from manure pits."

Woolen cloth."

They really haven't heard Zhao Dahai and Shanmao say these more detailed things.

Zhao Dahai and his family became more and more curious as they listened. They looked around at the bowl in front of Guo Xiuju and poked them with their chopsticks.

As soon as he got closer, Chen Ling could smell the strong and pungent smell of acetic acid.

With so many people watching eagerly, Lao Niwai didn't show much concern and immediately opened the vinegar tank.

So there are a lot of spares, and they are not worth much.

Seeing everyone beside him bursting with joy, Wang Cunye coughed twice, turned to Chen Ling and smiled: "In our village, there are vinegar makers in the town, and some vinegar will grow like this if left for a long time. People in the past didn't

Understand this, some are thrown away, and some are kept as treasures in vinegar tanks. Not to mention, if you keep these things, the vinegar will taste better.

There is a very simple way to tell whether the culprit is a mountain beetle or a weasel.

The old lady also came over and said, "Yes, it's a vinegar vat. When Fangfang and her husband lived here, they specially brought a small vat of old vinegar. His family knows how to make vinegar, otherwise it's up to us."

Why do people here put so much vinegar at home?"

But this thing cannot be stained with oil. My son-in-law has said before that this jealous treasure will die as soon as he sees oil."

"Hey, Fugui, there is no water in this wheat field. Why are there frogs?"

Wang Cunye was now very familiar with the older people in the village. He immediately raised his chin and said, "Go, go, go. Who is a savage? Do you look down upon others?"

Chen Ling and the others had just seen an eagle landing in the reeds, and were about to go down to the reservoir to look for it in the reeds. When they heard what Lao Niwai said, they said, "What's up, Uncle Niwai, have you dug out the treasure?"

Chen Ling was also stunned. He had never seen this thing before.

Chen Ling led a group of people into Lao Niwai's house.

In addition to containing food and daily water, farm water tanks are also used to prevent fires in the home.

Later, your eldest brother brought it back and tried it. It was similar to the jelly we eat. Soak and wash it in well water, cut it into pieces, put it in a bowl, and add some spicy pepper. It is sour, spicy, and fragrant.

Very, it tastes better than jelly."

Foxes are capable of raising cubs, but at most they only keep the cubs around for half a year.

"Yes, it was born from the bacteria in the vinegar vat. It's not wrong to say it's alive." Old Man Zhong nodded and said.

The female fox will go into heat again in the spring, looking for a mate to breed a new generation of fox cubs.

On both sides of the dam, there are two rows of tall and sturdy willow trees, with their green branches hanging long into the water.

"Ah, what is that? It ran so fast. I went to see the frog. This thing swooped out of the grass at my feet and disappeared in the blink of an eye. I didn't see anything clearly. It scared me.

Big jump..."

On the other hand, Wang Cunye grinned.

Then let them fend for themselves.

This vat of vinegar in Lao Niwai's house was a small vat of vinegar that his daughter Chen Fang and her family brought when they were hiding from family planning here.

At this time, Lao Niwai came out and saw Wang Cunye playing with Ruirui and Yaya in the back. He quickly walked up to pull him excitedly, but when he took two steps forward, he saw a large group of Chen Ling.

He was also talking not far in front, "Hey, the rich and the noble are here too. This is another guest. That's a good time. Come to my house and let the guests have a look."
