"Auntie, we are college students traveling out of town. We have always been interested in this story. Please tell us in detail."
"Hey! That's not a story! It's the real thing!"
Bean sprouts and I immediately pricked up our ears to listen.
The fat lady told us: "Ten years ago, there were a lot of floating algae in our lake, which affected the water quality. So the authorities put more than 10,000 black silver carp into the water to eat the green algae and control the water quality. Guess what happened?"
I shook my head and said I didn't know.
She whispered: "As a result, all the silver carp that were released were almost eaten! I heard from older people that there seemed to be a big water snake in the water, which was more than ten meters long! Its head was bigger than a TV set! His waist is thicker than a water tank! He can swallow a person in one mouthful!"
"ah?"
Dou Sprout stared and said: "Water chain?? Impossible! Water chain can't survive in such cold deep water!"
The aunt said loudly: "You still don't believe me! Why did I lie to you! Anyway, many of us here know that there are water monsters in the North Lake District! Fishermen rarely go to that area!"
Dou Sprout insisted that it was impossible, saying that it violated biological habits. My idea is different. I think anything is possible, just like a fish like the alligator gar. It occasionally appears in some park lakes. Maybe it was deliberately released by someone.
After leaving the small restaurant, seeing me feeling unhappy, Dou Sprout said, "No, do you really believe what she said?"
I said that they are locals after all, and we outsiders would rather believe what they have than what they don’t.
"That's nonsense! I don't believe it! How about we do an experiment! Take a chicken and throw it into the water to catch it! If there is a water chain under the water, it will definitely take the bait!"
We did what we said, we found a rope and made another chicken, then rowed back and threw the chicken into the lake.
Dou Sprouts and I stared nervously at the blue water.
After waiting patiently for more than an hour, the sea was calm and the dead chicken thrown into the water was fished out intact.
Did I say that thing went somewhere else? Douyazai patted his chest and said: "I don't think it's a water snake at all! Even if there is a water monster! Fengzi, don't forget my nickname! I only need three times five divided by two to clean up the little white dragon in my wave!"
I said anxiously: "You're not fucking afraid! I'm afraid! The things I'm most afraid of are centipedes and those kind of naked water snakes!"
Because the experience at Fei'e Mountain a few years ago left me with psychological trauma, I haven't mentioned those things in these years, just because I don't want to recall them, let alone four-legged snakes or water snakes, seeing naked eels I'm terrified of fish, and I've never eaten it.
"Then you can't just stop working because of the local people's vague words, right?"
"We must do it. Let's make a safe and feasible plan."
After I got back, I told the story. After hearing this, I asked with a puzzled expression: "Even the boat was towed away?"
"Yeah, head on. I'm afraid it's like what the aunt said about anacondas living there. Those things are territorial. If we get entangled in the treasure hunt, we'll be in big trouble."
Dou Yazai hurriedly said: "Don't listen to Feng Zi's nonsense. We tried it with a dead chicken, and there was nothing wrong with it! I think it was a big herring of more than two hundred pounds. Besides, we in this industry are not even afraid of thousand-year-old rice dumplings. We can also Afraid of a water chain? It's better not to have one! If there is one, I will definitely catch it and roast it!"
Brother Yu said from the side: "I think it may be an arapaima. I have seen it on TV before. That kind of fish can drag a small boat."
Xiaoxuan curled her lips and said: "You are really crazy. One said water snakes, another said herring, and another said giant fish. Qiandao Lake covers hundreds of kilometers. Isn't it normal to have a few larger fish? Don't think about it. Some of these are not available, and after a period of time it gets cold and it becomes difficult for us to get into the water."
We gathered around to discuss it for a long time, and finally made a decision: "Yunfeng, you will drive to the warehouse later to pick up the equipment. Tonight we will take all the guys to test the water and have a look. If we are lucky, we may gain something." .”
The car is a second-hand Santana that I bought recently. It looks very new, but it burns oil. As a business owner, I rented a house across from the train station as a warehouse more than a month ago. We came from Sea World. All the professional diving equipment I acquired is hidden there.
It was still an old train station at that time, and now Yintai should be built. I don’t remember clearly. The old train station seemed to be near the rehearsal square. The only thing that impressed me the most was a public toilet with a yellow exterior wall. The outer wall of the public toilet was spray-painted with red paint. There are four big words "Small change here", which means change, typo, and there is a nature Internet cafe.
I put on my suit and leather shoes, put on my leather bag, sprayed hairspray on my head in front of the mirror, and dressed myself up like a boss. The injuries on my face are much better, but there are still some bruises around the eyes. Putting on sunglasses is just right, perfect.
