Golden Fishing Village

Ao Muyang changed the topic and squatted beside the two old men and said: "It's good for you to stay in our village for the New Year. The village is lively, and it will be especially lively this year. By the way, what were you talking about just now? It seems that you two are arguing."

This topic change is good. Li Ji was refreshed. He pointed to the mudskiing board on the beach by the lake and said: "This thing is old, right?"

Ao Muyang smiled and said: "Then you are wrong, teacher, the mudskiing board is at most six or seven years old. I know that it is my uncle Dalin's board. His board just broke when I went to Kyoto. This is a new board. "

Li Ji rolled his eyes and said, "I'm not talking about his board, I'm talking about the mudski, which has a long history."

Ao Muyang nodded, "Yes, at least seven or eight hundred years or even a thousand years."

Li Ji waved his hand and said, "Not only that, it was described in the "Historical Records-Xia Benji" more than two thousand years ago, saying that Dayu "traveled by car on land, by boat on water, by sled on mud, and by chariot when traveling." This thing must have existed for two or three thousand years. Its invention should be related to Dayu's flood control project, and it has a long history. "

Ao Muyang was stunned and asked, "Is it so amazing?"

"Yes, it is amazing, but Lao Li is a bit far-fetched." Su Penghui also told him, "But more than a thousand years ago, there was a book called "Historical Records Justice", which introduced this board, saying that the head is tilted up and there are handles. People kneel on it and push the ground with their feet to push forward, "Shi Ji Zheng Yi" was written by people in the Tang Dynasty, at least it existed in the Tang Dynasty. "

Li Ji glanced at him and said, "Old Su, you don't understand, don't make a fuss. History requires bold assumptions and careful verification. What I said has been verified."

"Have you verified it in your dream?"

"Even if you have verified it in your dream, so what? I am doing scientific research after all, unlike you who dream about young girls and wives."

"You are making trouble. Xiao Ao saw it. This is a personal attack. Can intellectuals do this? Then what is the difference between you and Li Yanhong? A scum of the gentleman, a beast in human clothing..."

Ao Muyang waved his hand and said, "Teachers, let's calm down. The history of this mudskiing is so ridiculous. It's really beyond my expectation."

"Not only is it ridiculous, but it's also ridiculous." Li Ji laughed.

Su Penghui said, "Look, you are cursing again."

Li Ji said disdainfully, "Just study your fish honestly. If you don't understand history, don't talk nonsense. I'm talking about Ma Bi, not Ma Bi. You don't know about the Ma Bi War in history, right?"

Su Penghui was stunned and asked suspiciously, "Are you going to make it up again?"

Li Ji turned to Ao Muyang and said, "The Ma Bi War is about a battle that took place during the Jiajing period of the Ming Dynasty. At that time, the famous general Qi Jiguang led his troops to pursue the Japanese pirates in Ma Bi Village, Fujian. At that time, the Japanese pirates took advantage of the retreat of the tide and hid on the boats by the sea. The surrounding areas were all mudflats because of the low tide, and the army could not move forward."

"Qi Jiguang was very embarrassed. At this time, a local scholar who gave up his pen and joined the army presented him with a book "Ping Japanese Strategy", which introduced the mud slide, allowing the soldiers to hold the board handrail with one hand and hold a long spear to stab or a saber to chop, and the Japanese pirates were defeated. It is known as the Ma Bi War in history!"

After he finished speaking, he glanced at Su Penghui.

Su Penghui felt guilty, so he said, "You must have made it up. Qi Jiguang had a red cannon. Why didn't he use it to bombard the pirates' boats? The boats were stuck in the swamp and couldn't escape."

"You can ask Qi Jiguang. Anyway, I read it in history books."

Ao Muyang said, "Don't argue, teachers, do you want to go down together to feel the atmosphere of this extremely historical fishing tool? There are many mud slides in the village."

"No, no."

"The muddy road is slippery and the probability of overturning is high."

"We are both engaged in education and scientific research, and we rely on our mouths."

"Yes, let's just watch and chat, you go by yourself."

Ao Muyang shrugged. He saw Ao Xiaojun dragging a mud slide over, so he went to grab it, changed into rain boots and started sliding by the lake.

Mud slides are lighter than treads and are suitable for lake swamps instead of beach mudflats. This is because the mud in the swamp is very sticky and easy to stick to things after contact, so the lighter the better.

There are a lot of things in the swamp, especially loaches and eels.

Ao Muyang wandered along the lakeside, and when he saw a cave, he reached in and often pulled out a loach.

It is easy to catch loaches in winter. The temperature is too low, and the loaches don't move much, so you can catch one with one catch.

In addition, there are many shellfish in the lake. Some people use a sieve to dig up the mud to find pearl shells. Now the pearl gambling business in the village is very prosperous. They want to find some pearl shells and sell them to tourists who come to the village for New Year's Eve dinner during the Spring Festival.

Ao Muyang ran around the lake, and Ao Xiaojun looked at him silently with his arms around his chest.

The two looked at each other from time to time, and Ao Muyang smiled secretly, "Aren't you very capable, kid? If you have the ability, come and grab this mudskipper back."

Seeing him smile, Ao Xiaojun also smiled silently.

He wandered around the lake for a while, and during this time he went to see the Chinese mergansers that were still by the lake. These ducks were very sensitive. When someone approached, they immediately flew up the tree to hide. They built nests on the tree.

The bird watching group was still there, but there were fewer people.

Ao Muyang went over with a mudskipper and asked. The current leader was Ma Yi. Zhu Jingdian had gone home, and they took turns to monitor the Chinese mergansers here.

Of course, they were also monitoring humans to prevent people from stealing birds.

Ao Muyang handed them the loach he had caught, and asked them to go to the village to get two pieces of tofu to make loach stewed with tofu in the evening. Then he asked again: "Teacher Ma, I am a bit blunt, I hope you can understand. What I want to say is, if a bird thief really comes, what use are you guys?"

Ma Yi said: "Look, we have the Criminal Law and the National Rare Species Protection Law prepared here. We will tell the perpetrators that whoever dares to touch the merganser will have to go to jail. In fact, the Chinese merganser has a nickname, which is called the jail duck!"

Ao Muyang felt that this trick was indeed possible, and not many people would be willing to go to jail for catching a duck.

He walked around the lake again and caught some loach and eel seedlings, ready to take them back to the breeding pond to raise them.

As a result, when he got to the shore, he found that his shoes were missing, and Ao Xiaojun was also missing. In this way, he remembered the silent smile that Ao Xiaojun had shown before...

When he went to Ao Mukang's house to return the mudboard, he saw Ao Mukang wearing his new Nike shoes on his big feet, so he asked: "Brother Kang, where did these shoes come from?"

As soon as he finished speaking, a young man jumped out of the house and ran over the wall.

Ao Mukang smiled and said: "I don't know who threw this pair of shoes at my door. I thought it was pretty good, so I wore it myself. Anyway, men from our fishing family don't have any particulars and don't dislike it."

Ao Muyang felt distressed and asked: "Aren't you afraid of athlete's foot?"

Ao Mukang stamped his feet and said: "No, I haven't seen athlete's foot worse than mine. Fight poison with poison. I'm not afraid even if there are parasites inside. They can't survive my athlete's foot!"

Ao Muyang decided to give this pair of shoes to him.
