Leisurely monastic life

Chapter 187 Catching Loach

"Luo Tianwang, you said how tiring and tiring doing farm work, I feel quite relaxed. Does it mean that I am quite able to bear hardships and stand hard work?" Zheng Kaihang turned to ask while looking through the loach with great interest.

"Hey." Luo Tianwang just smiled.

Li Shishi saw the problem: "We only cut this field this morning. Look over there, when we came out, they cut a large area, and they are still going on. There are only three people in total, and they have done a lot of work." There are so many of us. If we work like them, we must also feel tired."

"Well, grandpa and grandma were afraid that we would be tired, so they only cut the rice in this field and rested. You thought it was so easy." Huang Yating said.

Before Huang Yating finished speaking, Zheng Kaihang cheered: "I caught it, I caught it!"

I saw Zheng Kaihang holding a loach tightly with both hands and straightening up, but Zheng Kaihang didn't hold it firmly, the loach was very slippery, slipped out from Zheng Kaihang's fingers, and fell into the rice field all at once.After the loach fell into the field, it slammed into the soft soil.In such soft soil, loaches are as flexible as fish in water.

"Ugh!"

Everyone couldn't help but sighed.

Luo Tianwang walked over and pulled out the lump of mud that the loach had burrowed into the soil, and then slowly opened the mud to reveal the loach's head. The loach wanted to burrow back into the soil, but he didn't know what to do If you drill, you can't escape Luo Tianwang's ten fingers.

"Huh? Can you still do this? This is clearly cheating." Zheng Kaihang laughed.

"What kind of cheating is this? You can't catch the loach with too much force. The loach is so slippery that if you use force, it will be squeezed out. You have to leave some space in your hand. If there is space in it, it will not go out desperately." Squeeze." Luo Tianwang gently grasped the loach in his hand, but the loach was more honest.

The little sparrow came out from nowhere, holding a struggling loach in its mouth.Satisfied, he flew to the bucket and put the loach into the bucket.

"This little sparrow is showing off to me. It must mean that so many of us took so long to catch a loach, and it will be able to catch one in a short while." Xu Shuangyan laughed.

Huang Yating also kept giggling: "Zheng Kaihang is not as good as a little sparrow. After catching it for so long, the loach ran away in the end."

"That's better than you never met a single loach." Zheng Kaihang fought Huang Yating again.

Instead, Huang Yafang was the first to catch a loach and happily put it into the bucket.

Luo Tianci ran to the field panting: "Brother, grandpa asked you to call your brothers and sisters to go back to eat."

"I'm going back to eat. If you want to eat loach, I have a lot of them in the pond. I'll go catch some and show you what the thousands of loach look like." Luo Tianwang laughed.

"Tianwang, you don't know how to brag. Where did so many loaches come from? We searched the field for a long time, and there is only such a small amount." Zheng Kaihang was a little bit disbelieving.

"Of course there are only so many here, you will find out when you come with me to our pond later." Luo Tianwang said.

"Tianci, is your brother a liar?" Zheng Kaihang asked.

Luo Tianci shook his head: "My brother is not lying. The loach in my pond is so smart, it can dance every morning when it wakes up."

"Alright, I'll go and see how the loach dances in your pond." Zheng Kaihang said curiously.

Several girls also quickly followed to the field ridge, but there was no water in the field, and there were mud all over their bodies, legs, trousers and clothes.Zheng Kaihang couldn't help wiping the sweat off his forehead with his hands just now, but a lot of mud stuck to his face and hair.

On the contrary, Luo Tianwang's body was clean, only his feet and hands were covered with mud.When Zheng Kaihang and the others reached the field ridge, Luo Tianwang put away their sickles, and then asked Luo Tianci to carry the bucket containing the loach.

In the courtyard of Luo Tianwang's house, everyone ran to the pond next to the house.

"There are really loaches dancing!" Zheng Kaihang was very surprised to see loaches jumping out of the water from time to time.

"Are there really thousands of loach in here?" Li Shishi asked curiously.

The water in the pond is relatively shallow on all sides, but the center is still very deep, and the bottom cannot be seen at all. In addition, there are some aquatic plants growing in the pond, so it is difficult to see how many loaches are in it.However, groups of loaches can still be seen swimming in the water.From time to time, loach happily jumped out of the water.

"Luo Tianwang, don't you want to show us thousands of loaches? There are a lot of loaches, but not as many as you said, right?" Zheng Kaihang asked.

"Don't worry, just wash off the dirt on your body here." Luo Tianwang walked to a small pier by the pond and washed the dirt off his feet and hands.While Luo Tianwang was washing his feet, there was a sudden commotion in the pond.

Countless loaches swam over from all directions of the pond. Where Luo Tianwang was standing, there were densely packed layers of loaches.

"Wow! There are really, really, look! There are so many loaches!" Huang Yating screamed excitedly.

Li Shishi's eyes widened too. It was the first time she had seen such a spectacular sight at such a big age.Who would have thought that there are so many loaches hidden in this seemingly inconspicuous pond?
"Tianci, go back and get a basin and catch some for cooking." Luo Tianwang stood still in the water, letting the loaches suck on his feet and calves non-stop.

Zheng Kaihang also hurried over, stood beside Luo Tianwang, and washed the mud off his hands and feet.It turned out that those loaches were always around Luo Tianwang, and not many loaches came to him at all.This made Zheng Kaihang a little depressed: "Could it be that loach also discriminates?"

Zheng Kaihang's depressed appearance made Li Shishi and others giggle non-stop.

"Zheng Kaihang, come up quickly. Let me try." The pier is so small that only two people can stand side by side.Huang Yating also wanted to come down to experience it, so she had to drive Zheng Kaihang ashore.

Zheng Kaihang went ashore with a smile: "You'd better be mentally prepared. If you compare with Luo Tianwang, I'm worried that you will leave a psychological shadow."

"You are the only one who has a psychological shadow! The guy who is disgusted by the loach." Huang Yating stepped on the pier impatiently, but she was not much better.Those loaches only surrounded Luo Tianwang.

"Haha, am I right? You are no better than me." Zheng Kaihang laughed.

Luo Tianci came over with a basin and handed it to Luo Tianwang.Luo Tianwang scooped the basin into the water, and the basin was immediately filled with half a basin of loach.
