Golden Fishing Village

Chapter 1389 1396. The giant turtle ran away (1)

A few days ago, a wave of Vibrio infection broke out in Longxiang Lake, causing the crabs in the molting period to die in batches.

Li Ji said that this was related to the large amount of muddy and rotten Elodea at the bottom of the lake, so Ao Muyang organized people to dive and clean up the garbage.

Longxiang Lake is also a diving paradise. There are underwater fossil forests that are rare in China. The villagers are used to it, but tourists who see this wonderful scene for the first time are still amazed.

Seeing the villagers diving to pick up the garbage, some diving tourists will come to help.

Longtou Village treats tourists with sincerity. It not only earns money from tourists, but also provides services in a serious manner. When tourists need help, they will also provide help. In this way, when they need help, some enthusiastic tourists will also give back to help.

Another reason for the outbreak of Vibrio is that the resources in the lake are abundant. Too many fish, shrimps and crabs have caused great pressure on the ecology of the lake, resulting in hypoxia in the lake water in some places.

Ao Muyang asked the villagers to put nets in the lake to catch freshwater fish, and some people put shrimp cages to catch shrimp. Except for crabs that could only be caught before the Mid-Autumn Festival, all other fish could be caught.

For a while, the lake was in turmoil.

The two giant softshell turtles were frightened, and they ran out of the gap in the protected waters and disappeared.

After discovering this, Chen Xin, who was responsible for staying in Longtou Village to watch the giant softshell turtles, went crazy. He first yelled at the divers in the lake, and then ran to Ao Muyang in a hurry: "The giant softshell turtle is gone!"

Upon hearing this, Ao Muyang suddenly had a headache.

He rescued the giant softshell turtle out of responsibility for this species, but he did not want the giant softshell turtle to stay in the village because they were too precious. If the village wanted to protect them, it would take extra energy, and this energy would be better used to develop the village.

As a result, Yan Yinghao not only left Eve in Longjiang Lake, but also sent Adam here. Now the only two giant softshell turtles in the country are staying in Longtou Village.

In order to protect the giant softshell turtles from being disturbed by tourists, the village specially designated an area in Longxiang Lake as a protection area for them. In order to protect the giant softshell turtles from being stolen, the town police station also arranged a policeman to be stationed in the village for a long time.

The two giant softshell turtles once made the village a mess. Now that they are lost, trouble is coming.

Ao Muyang wanted to complain, but he saw that Chen Xin's eyes were red and almost crying, and he was embarrassed to complain for a while, so he comforted him: "Don't worry, the giant softshell turtle will not be lost, I will find it for you."

Chen Xin asked pitifully: "What if it is lost?"

Ao Muyang said: "It can't be lost!"

Chen Xin said desperately: "If they are lost, then I will lose my job. Let's be honest, Director Ao, those two turtle calves are more precious than me!"

Ao Muyang waved his hand and said: "Don't worry, the giant softshell turtle will definitely not be lost!"

He guessed that the giant softshell turtles were still in the lake, so he went into the water to search for them personally.

The area of ​​Ambergris Lake is very large, but the giant softshell turtles will not run around. They don't like deep water areas, so they just need to search along the lakeside of Ambergris Lake. He is confident that his underwater vision is invincible and he will definitely find the giant softshell turtle.

But he went around the lake that day and found a lot of turtles, but they were not giant softshell turtles, just ordinary turtles.

In the past two years, people have been coming to Ambergris Lake to release turtles. Because of the special status of turtles - as the saying goes, a thousand-year-old turtle is a ten-thousand-year-old tortoise, and turtles are protected animals and cannot be bought and sold, many people bought turtles and released them in the lake, making the lake full of turtles.

Ao Muyang searched around but didn't find the giant softshell turtle. He was sure that he searched very carefully. With the giant softshell turtle's slow nature, it was impossible to miss it.

So, he was puzzled.

Ambergris Lake is not like the ocean. It is closed and there are no large predators in it. The giant softshell turtle has no natural enemies in the lake, so they cannot be hunted and eaten.

So, where did they go?

Lao Ao patiently searched around the lake twice, especially near the protected area, but he didn't find any trace of the giant softshell turtle.

He surfaced with a gloomy face, and then saw Zhang Nan waving at him: "Village chief, the giant softshell turtle has been found, you go and have a look."

Ao Muyang asked: "Where did they go?"

"To your house." Zhang Nan smiled.

Ao Muyang said unhappily: "Auntie, stop joking. Why are you joking at this time?"

Zhang Nan was also a little unhappy when he saw that his kindness was treated like this: "Who is joking? The turtle was encountered by Liang Si on the way to your house. If you don't believe it, go and see for yourself. If you go up the canal, you will definitely meet Teacher Chen Xin and others."

After hearing this, Ao Muyang understood that the two turtles followed the canal upstream after escaping from prison - there was a spring in his backyard, which kept flowing every day. With the help of this spring, he dug a large breeding pond in the backyard. The spring water flowed through the breeding pond and entered a ditch, and finally flowed into the Ambergris Lake.

The ditch flowed into the lake through the vegetable garden. At this time, there were more than a dozen people gathered in a vegetable garden. After Ao Muyang walked over, he saw that they were all walking slowly on the shore, staring at the canal while walking.

He got close to the crowd and looked at the canal. Two big turtles were swimming upstream with great interest. Because they were slow and in an upstream state, their movement speed was very slow, but they were determined and kept swimming upward.

Chen Xin muttered: "I want to see where you two want to swim to!"

Ao Muyang knew the destination of the turtles. Just like Zhang Nan said, the canal led to his home. Where else could the two turtles go if not to his home?

To be exact, they were heading for the spring. The two giant turtles must have been tempted by the spring water containing golden drops. They traced the source and went upstream.

After finding the giant turtle, he breathed a sigh of relief, and then said to Chen Xin: "You are so nervous. I told you that the giant turtle will not be lost."

Chen Xin smiled and said: "The village chief is wise."

Ao Muyang looked at the people gathered around, and then said impatiently: "What are you doing here? Haven't you seen a turtle? Go back and continue to clean up the Ambergris Lake."

In the evening, someone collected the shrimp cages by the lake. There were many freshwater shrimps in the cages, which were transparent and clear, big or small, jumping.

Old man Ao Yuanzang also put out a shrimp cage. He harvested a basket of shrimps. When he saw Ao Muyang, he asked, "Village chief, can you get some shrimps to eat?"

Ao Muyang waved his hand and said, "I'm tired of eating them."

Ao Yuanzang smiled and said, "Don't eat them directly. Go back and make shrimp paste. These shrimps are good for making shrimp paste."

After hearing what he said, Ao Muyang became interested.

Freshwater shrimps are different from seawater shrimps. These white shrimps produced in Longxian Lake are generally small in size and have little meat. However, compared with large sea shrimps, they taste better, light and slightly sweet, and have a different taste after being made into shrimp paste.

So Ao Muyang asked for some. The old man lived alone at home and couldn't eat much, so he gave him half of it.
