Carry a fountain with you

Chapter 140 The Joy of Harvesting

Liu Junhao and Zhang Qian were startled when they heard the sound, they must not have encountered a poisonous snake.Although poisonous snakes in Daqing Mountain are rare, they are not without them.

The most famous venomous snake is called Tubudai. At noon, it likes to lie on the hemp stones to bask in the sun.Its whole body is gray and not so clean, it suddenly looks like a piece of rag, and anyone who is a little sloppy will ignore its existence.

The poison of this snake is not very strong. Adults will have a high fever for a few days at most after being bitten by it. Generally, there is no serious problem.However, compared with eight or nine-year-old children, it is still relatively dangerous.

"Let me see, let me see, what kind of snake is it?" Liu Junhao ran quickly in the bamboo forest, ignoring the traces of bamboo branches hanging on his body.

"That's the snake," the student pointed to the big thing coiled up on the ground.I saw that the whole body of the snake was covered with yellow ring patterns, and it was holding its head up to protest.

"It's it, don't worry, it's a grass-headed snake, and it's not poisonous at all." Liu Junhao immediately relaxed when he saw it.This guy likes to stay in the grass the most. He usually just swallows a bird's egg and catches a mouse. It doesn't do any harm to people at all.

Hearing what he said, the child immediately shut up and stopped crying.

"It's okay, it's okay..." At this time, Zhang Qian hurried over.

"It's okay," Liu Junhao replied and broke off a thumb-thick bamboo branch from the side, and then kept teasing the grass-headed snake.

Snakes generally have very poor eyesight, so they can't see clearly what is in front of them. They just shake their heads around with the bamboo branches.At this time, Liu Junhao quickly stretched out his left hand to grab its tail, lifted it up and shook it violently a few times, and the snake became as soft as noodles.

He raised his hand and threw it obliquely into the sky, and the grass-headed snake no longer knew where it was thrown.

"Be careful when yelling, and see your feet clearly." Although it was a false alarm, Zhang Qian couldn't stop telling her.

Soon some people began to shout that the plastic bags were full, so she and Liu Junhao started collecting snakeskin bags again.

Good guy, I collected a snakeskin bag of cicada shells in a short time, and even made a small half bag of cicada flowers.

"How many catties are these?" Zhang Qian asked with a little excitement.She knew that Liu Junhao had a strong handle, and he could weigh things with a slight lift.

"I know that the shell should be more than nine catties, but less than ten catties. I know that the flowers are now more than six catties, but they will be dried later."

"It's a lot, it's already a lot." Zhang Qian thought about it in her heart, and in just half an hour, more than 400 yuan had already been credited.In summer, the days are long, and it doesn't get dark until nearly eight o'clock.Judging from this progress, they can still be busy for at least two hours, and they can earn more than 1000 yuan in a day.

In this way, a group of people rolled through the bamboo forest like waves, and the number of snakeskin bags behind them continued to increase.

"What time is it?" Liu Junhao asked, looking up at the sun in the gap between the bamboo forests.

"It's just 03:30, we'll leave at four o'clock." Zhang Qian took out her phone and glanced at it.

"Don't, let's go now, or I'm afraid the students won't be able to go back when it gets dark."

"It took us only three hours to come, so we can't make it back in four hours?" Zhang Qian asked suspiciously.

"When we came here, everyone was full of energy. Now it's different. We've all been tired for a long time. Besides, there are still a few snakeskin bags with cicada shells. It's better for us to take advantage of it sooner rather than later."

After hearing such an analysis, Zhang Qian also nodded in agreement, and hurriedly yelled for the students to gather.

After counting the number of people, they walked out of the bamboo forest together.The cicada shell was carried by the students, and a snakeskin bag only weighed about ten catties, so it was very easy for four people to lift it.

The bag of Cicada flowers was carried by Liu Junhao on his shoulders. Zhang Qian wanted to carry it together, but he waved his hands repeatedly.

He is strong and strong, this thing is trivial to him.

Things were really as Liu Junhao said. At first, the students were happily talking about today's harvest, but they gradually became listless, and the cicada shell became very heavy in their hands.

Seeing them walking slower and slower, Zhang Qian became anxious.If this continues, it is estimated that they may not be able to get out of Daqingshan before dark.

"Put down all the snakeskin bags." Liu Junhao also saw the problem and hurriedly stopped.

He asked the students to collect all the reeds in their hands, and then began to quickly weave the slippery poles.

This slippery pole can be regarded as a means of transportation in the mountains, mainly to save energy when transporting firewood down the mountain.It is very simple to make, first put a few bamboo poles on the ground and tie them into a rectangle, then spread some thin bamboo on the top and tie them with ropes.

Now that they are several miles away from the bamboo forest, it is naturally impossible to run back to cut bamboo, so the sliding poles can only be made of reeds, and the binding ropes are directly twisted out of plastic bags.

In less than 10 minutes, Liu Junhao made the sliding pole.He asked the students to put the snakeskin bags on top and tie them up.Then "Hi Ya" pulled up on the ground.

The skin of the reed is smooth, and there is very little friction on the mountain road, so it doesn't take much trouble for him to pull it up.

Zhang Qian wanted to replace him for a while several times, but Liu Junhao refused.

After all, human strength is limited. After pulling for more than an hour, his breathing began to become short of breath, and the sweat was continuously flowing down his chest.

Liu Junhao couldn't help unbuttoning his jacket, and when he saw the stone lock on his chest, he slapped his head, isn't he stupid?Putting it directly in the stone lock and transporting it back will save trouble, why should I be so tired like a dead cow.

Thinking of this, he hurriedly shouted, "Take the students and walk ahead quickly, otherwise it will be dark and you won't be able to get out of the mountain. I'll rest for a while."

"Let them go first, I will accompany you." Zhang Qian said a little worried.

"I'm fine. You can get lost in the mountains at such a big age. You have to go with the students, otherwise these brats might make trouble."

"Then rest on the mountain path when you're tired, and I'll find someone to pick you up right away when I get back to the village." After repeated instructions, she hurriedly led the children away.

Of course Zhang Qian knew the seriousness of the matter. If her child hadn't come back after dark, the parents might be in a hurry.

After they left, Liu Junhao picked a big flower skin from the stone lock and opened it, then gobbled it up to fill his stomach.He didn't waste the remaining more than half of the watermelon, throwing it on the sand to feed the grass snails.

After resting on the rock for another ten minutes, he slowly put the sack and the slippery pole into the rock lock, and then strode forward.

The mountain was getting darker and darker, Zhang Qian kept urging the students to rush, and they finally walked out of the mountain at seven o'clock.

Without the cover of the mountains, the sun still hangs high in the sky.A few students were waiting on the hillside, and when they saw someone coming out of the mountain, they immediately went up to meet them.

"Hurry up and eat melons..." Teacher Wang greeted them from a long distance away.This watermelon was given by Professor Zhao just now when he pulled the scooter and packed the cicada shell back. He sent six of them at once.

"Where is Xiaohao, why didn't he come out?" Seeing that Liu Junhao was not in the team, Teacher Wang hurriedly asked again.

"We have beaten too many cicadas, and we can't bring them back at all. He is still looking at things in the back." Seeing that it was still early, Zhang Qian breathed a sigh of relief.

"How many snakeskin bags are there? We packed three full bags today." Teacher Wang counted the number of people and found that they were all there, so he felt relieved.

"We got five and a half bags, and there was also a bag of cicadas." Zhang Qian replied with a smile.

"So much?" Teacher Wang couldn't help being stunned. She originally thought that Liu Junhao and others spent all their time on the road, and at most it was as much as they did outside, but who knew it was twice as much.

"No one usually goes to that bamboo forest. The cicada shells inside have been accumulated for several years, and they are everywhere," Zhang Qian explained proudly.

It was getting late now, and Teacher Wang asked the students to go home together after a few words.

Zhang Qian just wanted to go back to the village to find someone to help Liu Junhao carry things, but saw him walking slowly out of the mountain alone with a slippery pole.

"Why so fast?!" She hurried over.

"Just this little thing, less than two hundred catties, how can it be difficult for me?" Liu Junhao said a little proudly.

After throwing all the snakeskin bags into the stone lock, he walked lightly along the way, as if strolling in a garden, and had caught up with Zhang Qian and the others before he left the mountain.

In order not to arouse suspicion, he stayed in the mountain for another ten minutes before pulling the slippery pole out calmly.

"Put down the rope and rest for a while. I'll call Uncle Zhao and ask him to pull the car over." Zhang Qian wiped the sweat off his forehead with distress, and then pulled the rope over.

Although Liu Junhao didn't have much sweat on his forehead, he didn't stop him. He sat on the stone happily and let her wipe it off.

Teacher Wang saw that the two of them were in love with each other, so he was too embarrassed to bother her.

In less than 5 minutes, Professor Zhao came over with a cart, and he was surprised to see such a large pile of cicada shells.

When she went back at night, Zhang Qian said that Liu Junhao was tired for a long time and insisted on letting him sit there to rest while she was busy cooking.

After all, they had driven the mountain road all day. After eating, both of them felt weak.Zhang Qian didn't stay here any longer, and went directly to Aunt Six's house to sleep.

After waking up in the morning, Liu Junhao stretched his muscles and bones in the yard a few times, and immediately felt refreshed, and his strength returned completely.

After breakfast, all the brats in the village gathered at Professor Zhao's place again, and they came to help dry the cicada flowers.

The white cicada flowers had just spread out in the yard, and the chickens and ducks thought it was feeding them, and ran over madly.

A few people hurriedly beat them for a while before driving away all the chickens and ducks.

The weather is fine today, and after a whole morning of drying, the cicadas are ready to be bagged.

When he called Zhao Guangming at noon, the kid still didn't believe it, thinking that Liu Junhao was making fun of him.It wasn't until Liu Junhao threatened that if he didn't come, he would sell the cicada shell to others, and this guy came over on a motorcycle.
