Li Yu and the others mainly drink water from wells. The water from mountain ponds is mainly used to irrigate crops.
On this day, Li Yu and Dapao went to the mountain pond for swimming again.
The weather was hot, and I was covered in sweat as soon as I left the room.
So sometimes, Li Yu would go swimming in the mountain pond with Yang Tianlong and the others.
"***, Brother Yu, I just caught a huge fish!" Cannon came up from the water and shouted loudly.
"Huh? How big is it?" Li Yu said with a smile, looking at the sky while backstroke.
"I'm afraid it's not a water ghost." Li Tie frowned and said with some worry.
"Water ghost? Hahahaha, how is that possible!" Li Hang laughed.
Many mountain ponds or reservoirs actually don’t like fish that are too big because these big fish will eat small fish.
If the big fish eats the small fish, it will actually cause greater losses to them.
However, big fish are very cunning and often difficult to catch.
That is to say, the water level is not as deep as before. At this time, the water level is only less than 6 meters.
"Big fish?" Li Yu thought for a while and suddenly swam out from the pond.
The big fish is of no use, so it is better to kill it and eat it.
These days, their mouths have almost faded away.
Use the freshly squeezed peanut oil to fry the big fish. Then you can cut the big fish into many parts.
Part of it can be used for pickling, part of it can be used for braised, and part of it can be used for frying...
Pair it with some wine in the evening.
That's not flattering.
In recent days, due to drought, everyone's food supply has declined somewhat.
Get it started!
Thinking of this, Li Yu said to Cannon who was still swimming: "Are you sure there is a big fish? How big is it?"
"I'm sure. It just swam past me. I looked at it and it was definitely over 1.5 meters tall!" said Cannon.
So big!?
Everyone didn't believe it, especially Li Hang. He often comes here to swim, but he didn't see it.
Try it.
Li Yu thought for a while and asked Li Tie and Li Gang to build two small boats, and then placed a net in the middle. This net was very large, about ten meters long.
In addition, Da Pao, Li Hang, Li Yu, and Yang Tianlong cooperated.
Li Yu took out some fish feed from home and poured half a bucket of it.
These fish feeds have always been stored, but my grandfather always went to the mountains to cut grass for feeding, so these fish feeds were put away.
The dry season has arrived, and although there is still some grass, there is not much. These fish must have been hungry for a long time.
When the fish feed is sprinkled, many fish can be seen surging over the fishing net.
The water surface was splashing.
The net sank, and I watched the water surface crackling, reflecting the sparkling light under the setting sun.
Everyone waited for a while, but still no big fish were seen, only small fish.
The biggest one I saw only weighed about ten pounds.
Li Yu thought for a while and poured all the fish feed in the bucket onto the fishing net.
There was another tumbling.
Just when Li Yu lost hope.
Sudden!
Not far away, there was a huge surge.
This surge made everyone extremely excited. This was definitely a big fish!
This big fish entered the fishing net instantly and seemed to have turned over. It was not clear enough from the water surface of the pond, but anyone with a discerning eye could see that this fish was definitely not small.
I watched this big fish swallowing balls of fish feed. At this time, the big fish was already in the center of the fishing net.
Li Yu quickly shouted: "Hurry up and set up the net!"
Only then did everyone wake up from a dream.
Several people, each in a corner, quickly lifted the net.
The net slowly rose, and the big fish was extremely conspicuous in it.
At the moment when he came out of the water, Li Yu clearly saw (this chapter is not finished yet!)
Chapter 226: Leisurely apocalyptic life
This big fish is definitely more than 1.5 meters tall. It looks like it must weigh 200 kilograms. It is too fat.
It’s no wonder that when their family started breeding in the past, they always found that during the harvest every year, they always harvested very little.
The culprit turns out to be you.
In the fishing net, there is not only this big fish, but also some other small fish scattered here and there.
At this time, the big fish slowly emerged from the water as the fishing net was lifted up.
Seemingly realizing something, this mature fish vigorously swung its fins.
Very powerful.
Li Gang was the closest to the big fish. He almost lost his grip on the fishing net and almost let go when he swung it just now.
"Hurry up. Xiaohang, Cannon, you two slide the boat and pull it to the shore. We may not be able to catch this fish in the water!" Li Yu shouted.
With everyone working together, no matter how powerful the big fish is, it still cannot break free under the strong fishing net.
After a while, everyone arrived at the shore and pulled the fish onto the shore.
Li Yu saw that the fishing net had already torn a hole, and he was a little surprised. This fishing net was specially made and could even tear out a hole.
I'll have to sew and mend it again another day.
Everyone pulled the big fish to the shore.
The big fish has very big eyes, a big mouth, and is panting desperately.
Yang Tianlong suddenly said: "I heard that all big fish have spiritual energy. It seems that it is not easy for this fish to live to such a big size."
Li Yu glanced at Yang Tianlong and said, "Then don't eat it later!"
Yang Tianlong immediately said anxiously: "If you have spiritual energy, wouldn't it just replenish our bodies? Hehehehe."
Li Yu glanced at him. This big fish must have eaten a lot of small fish.
Li Hang took a scale and weighed it, it was 218 pounds.
The length is a full 2.14 meters.
This is the largest freshwater fish anyone here has ever seen.
Hmm. It should be delicious.
This is the end of the world!
The big fish was still panting. Li Yu and Li Tie carried the big fish back to the residential area.
Everyone was shirtless and followed behind Li Yu.
The group of people, like generals who had just won a battle, walked over there with great courage.
I was a little surprised when I met my third uncle on patrol on the roadside.
This is so damn big.
This fish is too big.
Soon, Li Yu and the others caught a big fish, and word spread throughout the base.
Many people at the base came to watch.
When Li Suxin saw the big fish, the child had a kind heart. When she saw the poor big fish being beaten to death by Li Yu with a stick, tears flowed down from her mouth.
Too cruel.
In the evening, after Lai Dongsheng's wife's superb cooking, Li Suxin showed off two large bowls of rice in one go.
More than two hundred kilograms of fish also have more than one hundred kilograms of meat. Even if on average, each person has more than two kilograms of meat.
Therefore, these meats are definitely not enough to be eaten in one meal.
Three-quarters of the fish has been processed, and part of it is reserved for marinating.
The other part is frozen for next time.
.......
On the wall, four people are still on guard, two more people are on mobile patrol, and one person is in the control room.
At night, Li Yu picked his teeth, touched his belly, and walked up to the rooftop of the villa with a bottle of beer in his hand.
Blow the evening breeze and feel the slight coolness after the heat.
We had enough food and wine, the weather was just right, so we lay down and watched the stars.
This... is the time we should live in the last days.
