It is very dark at night in the ravine, and there is no moon in winter. Even though the cold wind whistles like a train whistle, those fish thieves are still brave enough to use flashlights to steal without hesitation.
Food was not too stressful in the summer. There were vegetables, grains, and some melons and fruits. Once the autumn harvest was handed in, the wild vegetables were gone, and everyone found that life was unsustainably difficult, and all kinds of thoughts came to mind.
They didn't dare to rob others, but they dared to rob Liang Xiaonan and Liang Xiaobei's things. They were sure that Liang Xiaonan's family had no labor.
An old woman, a daughter, a half-year-old child, such a fish in a pond, it would be a shame not to steal them!
Xiao Tiezhu called Er Lengzi, Liu Ji and all the cadres in the brigade, and agreed to patrol the fish pond at night.
The two children of the Liang family raised a pond of fish, and these shameless people were so stubborn about stealing. He thought he should catch a few and send them to the police to serve as a warning to the monkeys.
In addition, he didn't think that Liang Xiaonan's child was a good boy. After the separation, neither Liang Dazhuang nor Wang Cuiying got away with it every time they made trouble for her.
It's time to celebrate the New Year, and we can't cause trouble.
Late at night, several groups of people came to steal fish. No one really looked at the fish pond. They all reached the other side of the fish pond, and no one stopped them.
What are you waiting for? Haha, let’s catch fish! As long as you catch and leave the fish pond, all the fish in the world will look the same, and whoever has them belongs to whomever!
It had only been snowing for a day, and the cold wind was howling like wild wolves. These people were wearing cotton hats, cotton clothes and trousers, holding dung dustpans and small homemade nets in their hands. Although they all covered their faces, no one said anything.
They didn't know who it was, but their common goal made them instantly form a united front.
Some people were using flashlights, some were breaking open the thin ice near the place where Liang Xiaonan was feeding the fish, and some were starting to lower the net.
Drop the net, drag it up, it's empty!
I lowered the net again and dragged it up, but it was still empty!
It turned out that when they broke the ice, the fish thought they were about to feed, so they all came over. Why didn't they come this time?
Someone was very smart and took half a small piece of Wotou with him, broke it into pieces and threw it down. After a while, he saw big flowers blooming in the hole in the ice!
The ice surface actually made a "click" sound.
How many fish are there to break the ice?
The fish thieves rushed to the ice hole and prepared their own dung baskets, ready to snatch the fish.
"Click, click, click, click"
The ice surface continues to break.
Ahhhh, the fish are coming up from the bottom of the water!
Everyone was ready to go, ready to catch the fish and run as fast as possible to avoid being caught by the people led by Xiao Tiezhu. They all squeezed in near the ice hole!
"Kaka"
The ice broke under their feet, and several people shouted: "Get back quickly, the ice is cracking."
At that moment, a huge fish pushed through the ice from the bottom of the water and jumped up. It had a spindle-shaped body and was thicker than an adult man. It had a gray-green back, a gray-white belly, and a pair of small, sinister eyes.
What's even more terrifying is its wide open mouth, which is two or three times larger than a dustpan. The upper and lower rows of sharp teeth are in a zigzag shape, shining horribly under the flashlight.
"Ah~"
The poachers screamed.
"Snapped"
"Wow"
The big fish flicked its tail and knocked the two nearest people into the pond. The cold and biting water was not as scary as the fear of being eaten by the big fish, and the people who fell into the water howled desperately.
The fish pond was dug less than 2 meters deep. These people are not particularly tall. If it were not for fear and cold, they would have no problem floating in the water. The key is that they are too scared now and the water is too cold. Cotton-padded jackets
The pants were soaked in water and were heavier than an iron sandbag.
They just howl in terror.
The big fish got angry and opened its big mouth to bite. The fish thieves gathered around the ice cave did not expect that after stealing the fish for a month or two, there would be such a big killer fish.
They wanted to run, but the fish moved faster, the ice had been broken open, and all of them were pushed into the water.
Only one person came late and didn't squeeze in, so he escaped. He was so frightened that he ran away desperately, became incontinent, and fell countless times along the way.
Liang Xiaonan had not slept. She heard the screams and immediately took a shortcut. No one noticed her in the darkness, but she could see clearly.
Reach out and take away the big fish.
There was a sound of footsteps running over. Xiao Tiezhu came with the team cadres and flashlights. When he arrived at the pond, he saw 7 or 8 people struggling in the water and screaming desperately.
He was so angry that he had no choice but to ask anyone to pull them out. He stood on the shore and looked at them and said angrily: "You steal fish and you still have the nerve to howl. How glorious is that?"
A flashlight shone over, and it was Liang Dazhuang, who was howling in the water until no one could hear him.
Xiao Tiezhu looked at him without pulling him, and said sarcastically: "Liang Dazhuang, how many times have I asked you why you stole the fish, and you always said you bought it yourself. What else do you have to say now?"
"Hurry up, pull me out quickly, yes, yes..."
His mouth was trembling with cold and he could not speak. He tried desperately to run to the shore. He was bitten by a big fish. Although he was wearing thick cotton pants, he was still so painful that he almost fainted.
Two of them had climbed ashore under the illumination of the flashlight. Xiao Tiezhu asked the accountant to call their family members and take them away.
Liang Dazhuang was the last one to come up. Wang Cuiying was afraid of ghosts at night and no one picked him up. Xiao Tiezhu had no choice but to ask someone to drag him back.
Looking around, Xiao Tiezhu sighed and said, "I hope no one will come again."
Dragging Liang Dazhuang home, he was already frozen and his whole body turned into a big ice cube.
Everyone used wooden sticks to knock the ice off his body. Wang Cuiying took off his clothes, quickly brought a pile of straw, and lit a fire in the main room to roast him.
Liang Dazhuang was wearing a tattered quilt and was already talking nonsense: "There are, there are monsters, monsters..."
Xiao Tiezhu said angrily: "Of course there are monsters, and they bite people, right?"
Liang Dazhuang nodded desperately. There were so many teeth, like a hacksaw!
Xiao Tiezhu said to Wang Cuiying: "Okay, you have to use your conscience after doing things. How difficult is it for two children to raise a fish? You steal once and twice, and you steal every day. Not only do you steal, but you also beat the children. Think about this carefully."
I think, if I really can’t figure it out, I’ll call the police to handle it.”
All the cadres in the brigade left. Liang Dazhuang was lying in bed shivering and shouting about monsters. Wang Cuiying was frightened by "ghosts". Although she suspected that Zhou Yan did it, it really looked like a ghost!
She covered her ears and scolded Liang Dazhuang: "Shut up."
The few who stole the fish didn't have enough to eat and couldn't walk very fast. After being frozen in the ice water, almost all of them got seriously ill.
Wang Cuiying pulled Liang Dazhuang on a cart, and sat at the door of the Liang family's old house. She started crying, saying that Liang Dazhuang was frightened and sick, and wanted Liang Xiaonan and Liang Xiaobei to treat him and pay them compensation.
Liang Xiaobei said coldly: "Why don't you sue us for stealing my fish and getting stuck in the spines?"
Xiao Tiezhu had already come over and shouted: "Is it still reasonable to steal fish? Do you still want to do it? Report it to the police and ask them to handle it."
Liang Dazhuang immediately asked Wang Cuiying to take him back, but he kept shouting that there were monsters in the fish pond, huge monsters.
Liang Xiaonan sneered, closed the door and went home. There are no monsters, but there is a bull shark!
There were so many fish taken from the sea, but there were really some big ones that we didn’t put back.
You should be lucky that I fed it in advance that night, otherwise, you would be the bull shark’s midnight snack!
