Golden Fishing Village

Chapter 364 366. Heat (3)

The weather this year was very strange. It was very cold in winter, but when spring came, the cold air suddenly disappeared. A hidden mountain seemed to rise in the north of the Red Ocean. The cold current in Siberia was blocked, and summer came in a few days.

Usually the red ocean in April is still a bit cold, but this year's April has already been as hot as June. The sun is shining brightly, and the sun is burning on the body, making it painful.

After breakfast, Ao Muyang wanted to take a walk around the village. As soon as he walked around for a while, he was sunburned.

The general became a deserter and ran back halfway. Instead of returning to the small building, he ran back to the old house and stayed in the shadow of the coriander tree, sticking out his tongue.

Wang Xia smiled and gave it a piece of bone with meat on it, which tasted delicious. The general lay on the ground and chewed it happily.

Zhong Cang snorted after seeing it: "I haven't eaten a few pieces of these ribs and you feel bad for me. Wouldn't you feel bad if you gave it to a dog?"

The general turned around sensitively, with a squinting look that looked domineering: What, do you have any objections to eating a bone?

Wang Xia touched the dog's head and said softly: "Seeing the general reminded me of the old yellow dog in our family. We had no money at that time. Old Huang followed us and did not enjoy any blessings. He only suffered a lot. ”

These words touched the soft spot in Zhong Cang's heart, and his resentment immediately flew away.

Looking at the general who was wagging his tail and happily chewing bones, he went into the room and took out the pork rib pot and handed it to it. He sighed and said, "Eat more."

The general was flattered and his eyes suddenly widened.

But Wang Xia took the pot away and said angrily: "Are you struggling? Just give it a piece. These ribs are for lunch."

The meat and ribs that reached his mouth flew away. The general was very anxious and quickly pulled Wang Xia's calf with his claws: "Don't, don't, don't take it away. Why are you so stingy?" Didn't you promise to give it to me? What about trust between humans and dogs?

Seeing its anxious look, Ao Muyang laughed.

Hearing his laughter, Ao Fugui walked out with his breasts exposed: "What are you laughing at?"

Ao Muyang said: "It's nothing, you put on clothes, what does it mean to be shirtless in April?"

Ao Fugui waved his hand and said: "What are you wearing? You have to take it off later anyway. You can't put it on for a few minutes, so don't bother with it."

Ao Muyang asked: "Why do you have to take it off later?"

Ao Fugui said enthusiastically: "Oh, you didn't know? The water level of Ambergris Lake has dropped a lot, and the big muddy beach is exposed on the lake shore. Everyone is stepping on river mussels. Why don't you step on it?"

When he said this, Ao Muyang became interested: "Step on river clams? That's okay, let's go together, I will step on some too, and make a side dish to go with the wine at night."

The weather has been hot recently and the Nanhe River has almost stopped flowing. People can only get water from Ambergris Lake to irrigate the land.

Now every day and night, there are dozens of water pumps pumping out water almost all the time around Ambergris Lake. Coupled with the evaporation of hot water vapor in the sky, the water level of Ambergris Lake will inevitably drop.

Standing by the lake and looking at Ambergris Lake, Ao Muyang felt that the lake had become much smaller, and no longer had the majesty and majesty of the vast smoke and waves.

In the morning, the lake water has warmed up, and some villagers went into the water. Some cast nets in the water to catch fish, some were playing in the water to cool off, and more were touching river clams.

When he arrived at the lake, Ao Fugui took off his shorts and put on his swimming trunks to get into the water: "Yangzi, let's go and compete to see who can touch more mussels today."

Ao Muyang frowned and said, "Wait a minute, I haven't been here for a few days. Why has the water level in this lake dropped so much?"

Ao Fugui rolled his eyes and said, "Look at how many water pumps are around here? It's been so many days since spring and it hasn't rained a single time. How can the water level not drop?"

Ao Muyang shook his head: "No, that's not the case. There are many lake eyes under Ambergris Lake. The lake eyes will replenish groundwater to the lake in time. Its water level should not drop so much."

Ao Fugui said: "Then the eye of the lake is blocked."

There was an old man from the village who was about to go into the water. When he heard what the two said, the old man shook his head and said: "Why is the eye of the lake blocked? This year is Jiulong flood control, and the water has been sucked away by the Dragon King."

Flood control in Kowloon is the local interpretation of drought years. In the feudal era, fishermen believed that it was the Dragon Prince's business to control the clouds and rain, and the Dragon Princes took turns to govern their area.

Originally, the Dragon King would come to use his magic power to bring rain every once in a while. However, in some years, there were too many dragons responsible for this area. Everyone passed the responsibility to each other and expected each other to do the work while they themselves did not work. In this way, there were no dragons responsible for the precipitation, and the weather became dry. .

In addition, in local legends, the Dragon King himself also needs the moisture of water vapor, and each dragon must absorb water vapor. In this way, during the flood control period in Kowloon, the nine dragons will not come to spread clouds and rain, but will all need to fetch water from the lake. The earth is naturally dry.

Ao Muyang didn't believe this, but Ao Fugui believed it.

After hearing what the old man said, he was surprised and said: "Master Fu, is Kowloon flood control this year? Oh, isn't that a big trouble? How dry it is."

He turned to Ao Muyang and said, "Yangzi, do you remember when we were in primary school? It was the time when Five Dragons controlled the floods. It was very drought at that time. The school also organized us to take turns fetching water for the lonely elderly people in the village."

Ao Muyang was very impressed by this incident. When he was seven or eight years old, Hongyang suffered a drought.

At that time, there was no running water in the village, and everyone had to rely on wells for food. The drought caused the groundwater level to drop, and some people's wells could no longer pump water. The school organized students to fetch water for the elderly in the surrounding villages.

Recalling the past events of his youth, Ao Muyang couldn't help laughing and said, "Of course I remember, how could I forget? At that time, our school held learning activities every other day. The class arranged groups to fetch water for the elderly, and everyone rushed to do it."

Ao Fugui also laughed and said, "Yes, and everyone rushed to touch the river clams. There were so many river clams that year. I estimate that there will be more river clams this year."

Looking at his smile, it was Ao Muyang's turn to roll his eyes: "It's dry and you're still laughing, what are you laughing at."

Ao Fugui smiled and said, "Anyway , it's always good to touch some river clams, right? Forget it, let's not get entangled here. Anyway, we are drinking tap water now. What can a little drought do? Can we dry up the sea? Let's go, let's go down and touch it!"

Another villager came from behind and joined in: "Let's go, touch the river clams quickly, otherwise they will be touched by the bastards from Wangjia Village."

As soon as the voice fell, an aggressive voice sounded by the lake: "Who are you calling a bastard? Huh? Who said it just now? Magobi, stand up for me."

Ao Muyang and others looked closely and saw a head popping out of the lake. It was a young man from Wangjia Village.

It is very embarrassing to say bad things about someone behind their back and be heard by others.

But for the people of Longtou Village and Wangjia Village, calling each other "bastards" is not excessive. In addition, there is only one person in Wangjia Village, and Longtou Village is not to be outdone. Someone immediately stood up: "What I said, what's wrong?"
