"I was about to row the boat and go back to the shore when I suddenly felt something hit by the oar. The flashlight shone..." Mr. Zhang changed color slightly. Even when he recalled the memory, he was still scared: "I saw a huge shadow swimming by the boat, and my oar hit it. It seemed to be shocked and sank into the water and disappeared."

Old Man Zhang is a native native who farms and fishes for a living. He is too familiar with this area of ​​water, but the things under the water are completely beyond his understanding.

"Since half a month ago, most of the ships passing by our town sank. I don't know why. There are also fishing boats in the town, and they are overturned from time to time. Everyone says there are monkeys in the river. I didn't believe it because no one has seen them before, and they are all nonsense. But I was really scared that day, and I saw something in the river."

"I rowed to the shore desperately. Before I swam a few meters away, a powerful force overturned my boat under the water, and I fell into the water."

"Did you see the big fish?"

"It's too dark, and the water is even darker, so I can't see clearly. I vaguely remember a very long tail, thick, long and black."

Li Xianyu frowned slightly. What fish's tail is thick, long and black?

"Is it a crocodile?" Li Xianyu asked.

When the old man Zhang heard this, he slapped his head: "It's possible, do you think there will be crocodiles in the river? I've heard about the invasion of species on TV. We used to be crocodiles."

He obviously did not associate the big fish in the water with the monsters.

Grandma kicked her great-grandson: "Can you think of something else besides the crocodile?"

Li Xianyu thought: "Male salamander?"

Grandma Zu rolled her eyes and said, "Then she has a good relationship, so she can stay alive this time."

The creature like Jiaoyu has a vicious temperament. If it were it, Old Man Zhang would have been a dead soul at the bottom of the river.

"What happened later." Li Xianyu asked.

"Later, I climbed onto the bed and came on the shore. I told you that after the day I hit, I never used a boat again. If it was really a crocodile, I wouldn't dare to go by the river." Old Man Zhang was still scared.

"We still want to rent a fishing boat. Don't rush to refuse. There are more than one fishing boat in the town. If you refuse, others will agree." Li Xianyu grabbed a stack of money from his wallet: "Two hundred a day, I'll give you one thousand as a deposit... Is the fishing boat not big? Is this deposit enough?"

Ninety percent of the things in the world can be solved with money, and ten percent of the things can be solved with more money.

Li Xianyu and Grandma Zu rented a fishing boat as they wished, not a professional fishing boat. The small fishing boat built by themselves in the town can carry about eight or nine people. The old wood is mixed with new wood, and it seems that it is often repaired.

"Uncle, you have a lot of mice in your town."

As soon as I approached the boat, a big mouse escaped from the boat, and panickedly crossed the shallow water area and fled into the melon field next door.

"Our town was also called Mao Town decades ago." said Old Man Zhang.

"Not Rat Town?"

"Before the founding of the People's Republic of China, there was a rat disaster in the town. Many people died. All the families with conditions moved away, and poor families stayed here to die. Legend has it because of the rat spirit, but one day, a cat fairy came up in the town, which subdued the rat spirit. There was a cat fairy temple on the mountain behind the town, and the town also built a temple dedicated to the cat gods. They did not worship the gods of heaven and earth, and prayed for a bumper harvest every year, and had a good harvest every year." Old Man Zhang said, "In fact, people in the town later started raising cats to catch mice, and the rat disaster was gradually solved. But our cat fairy temple is too wild, so we compiled this legend to increase the persuasion."

In traditional Chinese culture, there are also some considerations for building temples and offering sacrifices to gods. They must be officially recognized gods, otherwise they will be evil gods in lewd temples and will not be allowed to go to the table.

"In recent years, the rat disaster has come again. There are mice everywhere in the town. The dealer has chewed them and the millet at home is also chewed. The cats I raise are useless," said Zhang, "Now all walks of life are unethical, and cats are also unethical. If you don't catch mice, you only know how to eat them."

When I rowed into the river, the river surface was very wide, about hundreds of meters. Li Xianyu tried to open his spiritual eyes, but the quiet river surface did not change, and there was no phenomenon of boiling demonic energy.

Therefore, things in the river are the most difficult to deal with. Any traces of passing through the land must be found. Some places have been staying for a long time, and their smell will not dissipate for a long time. However, the river water is constantly flowing. Unless it happens to confirm the look of its eyes, it is difficult to find it.

The boat brought its own fishing rod. Li Xianyu found a few pieces of meat from his wallet and asked his grandmother to sit on the bow of the boat to fish.

"My adoptive father likes fishing the most. He has to go out to fish every now and then. He dreams of taking a yacht to sea fishing one day, but his salary is enough to support me and Bing Zhazi. Bing Zhazi is not good at it. He doesn't work after graduation and is still dependent on his parents, so his adoptive father's dream is always a dream. But I hate fishing the most. I'm stupid and can't go there for a long time, and I don't have a fish." Li Xianyu said.

"I didn't like fishing when I was young," said Grandma Zu. "Later, I found that fishing was pretty good. I could spend time. What I lacked the least was time."

She held the fishing rod in her hand and looked at the water, her eyes as blurred as water waves.

here we go again.

Grandma Zu will occasionally reveal the vicissitudes of time. Only in this way can Li Xianyu realize that she is an old antique of 150 years.

Immortality should be a very happy thing. How many emperors and generals have dreamed of it? Li Xianyu thought so before, but after inheriting his grandmother, he found that immortality may not be a blessing.

You can't die, but all your family and friends are dead. When people overcome time, you are still not invincible, and loneliness is waiting for you.

Moreover, the times are always changing, and people’s three views will not change. Grandma Zu is constantly suffering the pain and helplessness of the impact of the three views. According to the ratio of men and women in our country, it will continue to deteriorate. After several years, it may not be monogamy, but polygamy.

If Li Xianyu could survive to that era... it would be better to commit suicide by septum.

After floating in the water for an hour, Grandma Grandma caught several big fish and released them all.

"What's the discovery?" Grandma's great-grandmother took the exam for the school.

"I'm a little brow." Li Xianyu paddled to the shore: "Comparison of the experience obtained from the Jiao Salamander incident. If some fierce alien species comes from this water, the fish and organisms in this water will decrease dramatically in a short period of time, either being eaten or scared away. The current situation is obviously not like that. There are quite a lot of fish, both large and small, and the proportion is even."

"What does this mean?"

"It means that the thing may be a vegetarian or an omnivorous animal, not just chasing fish to hunt down and prey." Li Xianyu thought for a while, "There is another possibility that the guy did not live in the water, but this would seem strange."

No, it looks very naughty.

Although he didn't live in the water, he specialized in running into the water to lift the boat and bite the steel plate on the bottom of the boat. It was simply too naughty.

When he returned to the shore, he went to Zhang's house again and asked him how many fishing nets he wanted to come and scattered them in the river. The grandparents and grandchildren walked around the town, which was very awkward and could not find a hotel.

It is only 40 minutes away from the county town. There are no foreigners at all. At most, people from nearby villages come to buy something.

The hotel cannot be operated in the town.

Internet cafes are everywhere, with at least two on the street, and the business is pretty good.

Li Xianyu and Grandma Zu opened two machines in the Internet cafe and scanned all the popular online games on the market.

Playing games and shopping is the only fun that grandma has in the new era, and it is even better to have a great-grandson accompanying her. She is dominating the game together, sieging cities and villages, and her fun is greatly increased.

"I don't know how much better than the Internet cafes in the Shanghai Stock Exchange." Li Xianyu was quite surprised.

The environment of the Internet cafe has a strong sense of the times, with smoke everywhere, and there are passionate words from men who are guiding the country: Go home quickly, you're stupid, the highland is gone.

Do you know if you have a team? Is Adc a fool? Playing stand-alone?

Don't dismantle the bomb first, the enemy is in a dog, and the grenade is still there.

.....

It reminds Li Xianyu of his childhood. After school, he and his friends sneaked to the Internet cafe near the school. He was not old enough to surf the Internet, so he watched the older brothers play games. There was always a smell of smoke in the Internet cafe, and occasionally you could see non-mainstream girls typing on the keyboard and playing dance.

The older brothers who wore straight white jeans and had not washed their heads for several days, no matter what they looked like now, when they had a three-dollar nutrition express line on their table, a five-dollar red gold dragon cigarette in their mouths, and their hands were touching the keyboard like a lover, they were the king.

If it were Li Xianyu's childhood, a high-quality beauty like Grandma appeared in Internet cafes, there would be 100% of a lazy little guy coming to chat with him. He would be more courageous and would touch him.

But now it’s different. Even in a small town with an underdeveloped economy, the eyes are still coveted, but no one will come over to chat with you without any wits.

Compared with the previous generation, this generation has an additional precious quality: self-knowledge.

Poverty gives us self-knowledge.

The game was played until 10 o'clock in the evening, and the grandparents and grandchildren reluctantly left the Internet cafe.

"Grandma Zu is so amazing. In the team battle just now, if you cut two C positions to death, we would lose."

"You are also very awesome. You have eaten all the damage, otherwise I won't cut it in."

The grandparents and grandchildren brag each other, which roughly means that except for them, the other three are all fools.

At ten o'clock in the evening, there were almost no pedestrians in the town. They left the town and trekked by the river along the ridge of the field to the location where the fishing boats were docked during the day. The fishing boats were locked on the wooden stakes on the shore, and Li Xianyu took out the key to unlock them.

Grandma Zu kicked the fishing boat out with a light kick and then floated onto the boat.

The river surface is very quiet and dark. Not far away are the lights of the town, and on the other side are quiet fields. At the end of the fields are vast and continuous mountains.

After floating in the river for a long time, the wind was calm.

Li Xianyu and Grandma Zu both restrained their aura, and he didn't even dare to open his spirit eyes. If the monster was hiding nearby, the spirit eyes would scare it away at this time.

"I don't know if the method of waiting for the rabbit is effective. According to the information provided by Mr. Zhang and the clues from the Hangzhou branch, the probability of an accident in the fishing boat is 70%, which is extremely high. With my business... My lucky value, the probability of it appearing should be 100%. " Li Xianyu whispered.

Li Xianyu caught the fishing nets according to the position of the float and was surprised to find that the fishing nets that were intact when they were thrown down were bitten.

"What do you think it is aimed at? It's so weird not to hurt people and make trouble."

"Don't matter, if you catch it, you beat it up, you suck your blood and we can leave."

"Crazy!"
