Chapter 361: A gimmick, just like a joke

Prince Turtle appears again.

Both the villagers, Zhou Weijun and Yu Qian, they were all happy and full of surprises.

Only Chen Ling was slightly worried.

I am afraid that another water monster appears in the reservoir.

Immediately, he led Zhou Weijun and Yu Qian to the reservoir along with the crowd of people in the village.

As a result, when we arrived at the entrance of the village, the dam was already full of people, with three floors inside and three floors outside. Looking around, they were all full of people.

"Good guy, the whole village must have come out to see it."

When Zhou Weijun saw this situation, he couldn't help but exclaimed, there are too many people here.

Even though there are more young people going out to work this year, it is still no worse than the tragic situation of only left-behind children and lonely elderly people in the following ten years or so. There are still quite a lot of people staying in the village to work as farmers.

Ma Wei behind him pulled Chen Ling and said: "I have seen your big old turtle here several times in photos and newspapers. He has just come out to look for food after hibernation."

Chen Lingyao Shaking his head: "I don't know about that. This thing only showed up two or three times last year, and you can't usually see it."

Under normal circumstances, the old turtle will end hibernation in the third month of the lunar calendar. After hibernating throughout the winter, the old turtles are hungry and will come out to look for food. It will be easier to catch the old turtles at this time.

But big guys like garlic are not afraid of the cold at all. Chen Ling has tested it before. They don't need to hibernate.

On weekdays, I can hunt big fish at the bottom of the water without starving.

Sometimes I also go for a swim in two big rivers.

Chen Ling knows all this.

In my spare time, I will also come to the reservoir to visit them and feed them food.

Every time you come to look for them, just tap the water lightly on the surface.

If you are at the reservoir, you will show up within two minutes.

If not, there will be no response.

At this time, after Chen Linggang and Ma Wei finished speaking, the crowd burst into exclamations.

“Prince Turtle is back again!”

Hearing this, Yu Qian quickly stood on tiptoe behind the crowd and jumped up, wanting to see the true appearance of the so-called Prince Turtle. Unfortunately, there were too many people and he couldn't squeeze in. He was so anxious that he scratched his heart.

He kept shouting: "Brothers and sisters in front, you have finished reading, let us take a look too."

No one paid any attention to him, they all wanted to get closer to Prince Turtle and get some luck.

"Fugui, Fugui, please help me brothers. If you want to see the old turtle can't see it, please help me figure it out. I beg you."

Yu Qi'an caught him Chen Ling's hand jumped up and down, and he quickly knelt down in front of Chen Ling.

He was anxious, and so was Mawei. He squinted his eyes and pointed at the little kids on the trees nearby and said, "No, let's go climb the tree too. This tree is quite tall and strong. Let’s move two stools and climb up, so we can definitely see it.”

They had long heard about the giant turtle here from Zhou Weijun and had seen photos of it. They had been thinking about such a rare thing for many years. It’s a rare sight and I didn’t expect to see it with my own eyes.

I didn't expect that they would bump into me this time. How could I miss this?

If you miss it and never see it again, if you think about it in the future, your intestines will not regret it?

Looking at Zhou Weijun and Wang Jusheng moving chairs, Chen Ling quickly stopped and said, "No, no need."

Then he shouted to the crowd: "Prince Turtle is out, hurry home and get it." Raw meat, take red cloth and incense paper, and offer it to Lord Turtle."

As soon as he shouted, the excitement in the crowd paused for a moment, and then they turned around and ran home.

At this time, people emphasize that gods and Buddhas must eat their own incense and tributes, so that blessings will be given to themselves and their families will be protected.

So I go back to my home and prepare it myself.

After doing this, the originally dense crowd cheered and cleared away quickly.

Only Chen Ling and the others were left on the dam, as well as the big boss Tian Honglitian who came to inspect the ornamental fish.

"Brother-in-law, why are you stopping us? Go back quickly to get some incense and candles, and say goodbye to Prince Turtle."

Wang Zhenzhen had already rushed over with her sister and parents to see Lao Turtle. At this time, she was running home in a hurry, but was stopped by Chen Ling. She was so anxious that she was afraid of not being able to catch up.

"Bless you, we don't do this in our family."

Chen Ling grabbed her sister-in-law's arm speechlessly. The villagers didn't know what was going on. Do they still know about the turtles they released? What's going on?

Should this thing that was raised by oneself be offered up as an ancestor?

Nothing.

Immediately, he said a few words to Wang Susu and the two elders, and then stood quietly on the shore and looked down.

At this time, Yu Qian and others also saw the true appearance of the old turtle in the reservoir, and they couldn't help but sucked in a breath of cold air: "Hey, I'm a good boy, this big old turtle in the lead is really a turtle king. Ah."

Ma Wei's narrowed eyes were rounded: "Oh my God, this is the big turtle that the old people talked about. This back is bigger than a rolling pan."

When they saw the giant turtle written in last year's newspaper, they still refused to believe it.

Now that I have seen it with my own eyes, I realize that the newspaper did not exaggerate at all, but the photo made the giant turtle too small.

It was far less shocking than seeing it with my own eyes.

On the wide water surface, I saw huge turtles like oval reefs raised in the water. Their backs were as black as ink, broad and broad, scattered in the water, slowly moving towards from the depths of the reservoir. The shore swam over.

Under the afternoon sun, these huge creatures opened up huge eddies in the water, churning the sparkling water with rolling waves and discharging the water, just like the turtles in myths and legends. The water comes from far to near, and the scene is extremely shocking.

Zhou Weijun didn't care what to say, and quickly picked up the camera and started to capture this rare spectacle.

And that Tian Hongli stared blankly at the many giant turtles in the water, without saying a word for a long time.

"Aling, don't we really bring some tribute?"

Wang Susu couldn't help but ask when she saw that the nearby villagers were holding tribute incense and candles and kowtowing on the shore.

She also believed in blessing and hoped that Prince Turtle would bless her husband and children.

Chen Ling hugged his son and shook his head with a smile: "No, I'll just bring the live chickens and ducks over later."

His attention was not on the villagers kowtow to worship, nor on Yu Qian and others In terms of reaction, he kept staring at the garlic and the reeds on the shore.

"Look, look, Prince Turtle has arrived at the shore. Kowtow quickly."

The villagers were still exclaiming, but Chen Ling knew that Garlic swam over to tell him what had happened.

Otherwise, after receiving my own warning, they will not appear in public unless there are special circumstances.

So I hugged my son and walked down again, looking back and forth at the reeds.

At this glance, the problem was discovered again.

Green new reeds grew out of the decayed and yellow dry reeds. In the middle of the reeds, there was a grass pit where an unknown creature "lyed" and floated on the water. It's like the traces of animals lying on hay in a stable.

Following this trace and looking up the river, we saw a dirt hole as big as a basin, covered by last year's thick decaying leaves and weeds.

"As expected, there is a situation. I don't know what this thing is. It can be in the water and dig holes."

Chen Ling frowned slightly and thought: "Is it a badger? Something like that? The badger’s fur is thick and fine, so it’s not afraid of water, and I blocked the hole before and dug it out again, so its digging ability is not weak..."

He was afraid that his thinking would be restricted, and he thought this thing was amphibious from the first impression.

It may also be that he lives on land and only knows how to swim.

You can't just rely on aquatic creatures. Doing that for a long time may be completely wrong.

For example, a weasel can swim.

As for badgers, I have never heard of them being able to swim, but there are not only pig badgers in the mountains, there may be other badger animals as well.

"Look at how rich and powerful you are, I carried the baby down to speak to Prince Turtle."

"That's right, this baby is not as smart as a monkey."

"..."

At this time, Chen Ling was awakened by the voices of the villagers on the shore. He saw a group of old turtles looking at him quietly not far away, as if waiting for instructions, so he shook his head gently at Guan Tou, and then rushed The villagers on the shore smiled, hugged Ruirui and walked up.

“Ah~ah~”

Seeing him walking up, Ruirui scratched his little hand and grumbled, unwilling to leave. This was the first time he had seen such a big thing in the water. He didn't know what it was. He just felt curious and funny. Just now They kept staring at the garlic and wanted to watch it for a while longer.

"Be obedient, there are many people now. Dad will take you to see him in the evening."

Chen Ling kissed his son's tender face, returned to the dam and handed him to Wang Susu, thinking about the year before last When there was a water monster, Uncle Niwai and others who were close to the reservoir said that the thing was green-faced, fanged, wearing armor, and eating ducks one bite at a time. This description was not consistent with the huge strange fish he found.

Contact the earth cave on the shore, I'm afraid there really is a second water monster.

Then come and take a look at it in the evenings these days and explore it carefully.

The scene of thousands of villagers kowtowing and worshiping on the dam is quite spectacular.

Unfortunately, Garlic and the others did not stay long this time. They quickly moved away from the shore and disappeared into the vast waves.

After the old turtle left, everyone was still talking.

Especially the three of them, Yu Qian, were extremely excited. They were all in high spirits, holding their arms and discussing non-stop.

"Lao Ma, you often tinker with old objects. Can you tell me if such a thing has come out before?"

"Then it must have happened before. Do you even need to ask? If nothing else, there was a giant turtle in the Yellow River. I heard someone tell it, and it sounds like the story in Journey to the West. People said that the giant turtle would make waves and cause trouble. They turned over the passing boats, so when a boat passed by, they heard unusual noises under the water, and no one dared to speak loudly for fear of disturbing the big turtles at the bottom of the river. "

Ma Wei gestured with his hands, and then. He glanced in the direction of the reservoir and said: "But this is the first time I have seen such a big turtle in Fugui's reservoir. I used to read books or listen to people talk about it. The leading turtle The turtle is so big, and its back is as black and thick as a big iron stone. It looks like an old turtle, and it won't be like this for hundreds of years."

Said, Ma Wei looked at Zhou Weijun: "Old Zhou, do you dare to make a movie with this thing?"

"No, no, no, I don't dare."

Zhou Weijun shook his head like Rattle: "I don't even do shows. The old turtle in this reservoir is as big as a monster. In a few years, he might really be the turtle prince."

This statement made everyone burst into laughter: "Come on, you old feudal man, you are so superstitious that you are confused. As a director, the villagers in Fugui Village will laugh at you."

"Oh, you Not to mention, we really have to worship gods when filming. For example, when you film Journey to the West or Three Kingdoms, in addition to the opening ceremony, you have to burn some paper and light incense sticks for the gods or historical figures you play. This is just like acting in an opera. It’s like worshiping Guan Gong before Guan Gong..."

Zhou Weijun said with a serious face.

Halfway through his words, he saw a person walking towards them, his face changed, he quickly lowered his voice, turned to Chen Ling and said: "Hey, look, Fugui, that second-rate dealer is here, and there will be someone soon. Don't tell him the truth about anything, this old boy is very mean-spirited at first glance."

When Chen Ling looked, it was Tian Hongli walking over.

Tian Hongli came here for no other reason than to order the next batch of ornamental fish.

Not only the Chen Ling family, he also plans to take care of everyone in the village.

It was really the old turtles who shocked him.

He suspected that such a large giant turtle could be raised here because the water environment here is relatively special.

Listening to the villagers' conversation just now, he also heard about a giant turtle fighting a monster last year. It seemed that there was a water monster in the reservoir.

Immediately, I was no longer in the mood to worry about any of Chen Ling's potions.

On the contrary, I feel that the people in their village are guarding an undeveloped treasure land.

There are such things as giant turtles and water monsters.

The fish raised here must be amazing.

Not to mention, science and science popularization were not developed at this time, and there were very few such programs on TV stations.

At this time and even a few years after the millennium, there was even qigong on TV.

Therefore, people do not regard water monsters as big fish that live for a long time. Many times, their first thought is only about gods and monsters.

Plus the fish here are really good.

The fry raised by the villagers alone are quite enough.

Tian Hongli thought about it and realized that the quality of the fish was not bad anyway.

I simply want all the next batch of ornamental fish here, and then use the gimmick of the giant turtle here to get them out, and put them in the newspaper again to try to sell them.

An ornamental fish raised in a place where giant turtles and water monsters were found.

Not only are they beautiful, they can also bring you some blessings if you buy them back and keep them.

Tian Hongli has thought about it. If the ornamental fish can sell well, it will not only be ornamental fish, but he will also have to take out the aquatic products here.

When the time comes, it will be said that eating it will help you live longer.

The more Tian Hongli thought about it, the more excited he became, and his ambition was suddenly ignited.

"I have no problem selling the next batch to you. You can negotiate with other villagers yourself."

Chen Ling learned that he wanted to collect fish, but didn't say anything. Besides, we don’t sell our fish to anyone anyway.

“No, Boss Chen, I have to tell you something clearly. I can’t collect this fish myself. You will still have to send someone to deliver it when the time comes. However, I can pay a deposit first and I can also pay for the freight. "

Tian Hongli had his own little calculation. He was afraid that if he sent a car to collect it, Chen Ling would not add potion and the survival rate would not be guaranteed, so he said so.

"Okay, then let Bo Ming give it to you."

Chen Ling didn't say anything else, nudged his chin towards the little sheep, and then went to Wang Jusheng's house with Zhou Weijun and Yu Qian.

His gesture made Zhou Weijun and Ma Wei laugh at him for being too casual in doing business, as if he was joking.

Yu Qi'an's face was full of envy along the way. He was living a life that was too unrestrained.
