In the dark night, Gu Chen finally found the so-called "Hanyin Temple" on a mountainside.
What is surprising is that the scale of Hanyin Temple is ridiculously small.
Although the appearance is no different from other temples, this is the first time for Gu Chen to encounter such a small-scale temple.
While passing Hanyin Temple, Gu Chen deliberately slowed down the car.
Yuan Shasha, on the other hand, sensibly lowered her car window and used her mobile phone to take pictures of the Hanyin Temple on the roadside.
Everyone did not stay too much outside Hanyin Temple and continued to drive towards Hongshan Reservoir.
"Logically speaking, there must have been no such building in this location before, so it was only built less than a year ago and it has developed so rapidly?" Officer Wang sat in the car thoughtfully, feeling the speed of development here.
It's really hard to understand.
Especially the aunts like Liu Qiuxiang and Wang Xiuqin who live in the city come here every Saturday to participate in the release of animals, which shows that this monk Xingyun still has some skills.
Gu Chen said nonchalantly: "Brother Wang, don't forget, we are here to fish in Hongshan Reservoir tonight."
"Ah?" Officer Wang was stunned for a moment, glanced at Nie Xiaoyu beside him, and then said: "Yes, yes, I'm here to fish tonight, fishing."
Nie Xiaoyu:???
I just feel like these people are weird, they are just catching fish. Is it necessary to be so nervous?
Everyone followed the navigation and soon arrived at Hongshan Reservoir.
This reservoir is smaller than expected. Due to the recent hot and dry weather and less rain, the total water volume of the reservoir is not very high.
Gu Chen parked the car on the reservoir dam, then got out of the car and prepared to take out the fishing tools from the trunk.
Only then did Gu Chen discover that there was a merit monument standing next to the reservoir, and the full name on it was "Hanyin Fangsheng Reservoir".
The merit monument was erected half a year ago. On it were engraved the names of many people who had performed meritorious deeds. Gu Chen shone a flashlight over it and looked it up roughly.
In total, the names of more than 150 people are engraved on the merit monument, and the names of Liu Qiuxiang and Wang Xiuqin are also among them.
Not only that, there are many empty spaces reserved on the merit monument, probably for those who come later.
Looking around, an ordinary small reservoir has turned into a life-release pond in everyone's eyes.
It is conceivable that the release event is held every Saturday, and more than a thousand creatures are put into the reservoir each time. Over the years, wouldn't the creatures in Hongshan Reservoir become saturated?
I feel like these people really should pay the IQ tax.
Gu Chen sighed, then took the fishing rod and walked towards the steps of the reservoir.
After everyone found a suitable location, they began to prepare the bait.
But at this moment, a middle-aged bearded man and another tall, thin old man suddenly discovered the car parked on the dam.
The two picked up wooden sticks and flashlights and walked over aggressively.
"Hey, what do you people do?"
"Don't you know you can't fish here?"
Gu Chen turned his head and looked around, thinking that he was worried that he couldn't find anyone to understand the situation. Unexpectedly, someone came to his door.
So Gu Chen handed the fishing rod to Nie Xiaoyu, stood up, smiled at the two people on the dam and said, "Whose belongs to this reservoir?"
"Whose family is this? This reservoir is a release pond and fishing is not allowed." The tall and thin old man walked down the steps step by step, shining the flashlight in his hand at Gu Chen.
Gu Chen blocked the light with one hand and then said: "But I remember you could fish here before. Could it be that the reservoir has been contracted by someone?"
"Of course." The bearded man walked up to Gu Chen and realized that except for Officer Wang, they were all young people.
So he said unceremoniously: "This place has been contracted out by private parties and we do not accept fishing business."
"Who contracted it? I fished here the year before last." Officer Wang stepped forward and said involuntarily.
Seeing that the two of them were being difficult to deal with, Nie Xiaoyu took the initiative to stand up and said, "Hey, why don't you just catch a fish? It's not like I won't pay you."
Seeing the two of them looking at each other, Nie Xiaoyu added, "How much does the fish in your reservoir cost per pound? I'll just give it to you according to the market price."
"And my dad owns a canteen, and the demand is very high. If the price you give here is wholesale, you can also consider long-term supply, but even though it's a bit far away, I don't know if you have door-to-door delivery.
business?"
The two of them were also stunned for a moment, and the tall, thin old man stepped forward and asked, "Are you really here to fish?"
"Haha." Lu Weiwei laughed when she heard this, and took out the fishing net in her hand: "We don't fish, so why bring these things here? I just heard that there are many fish in Hongshan Reservoir, and the meat is delicious, so it is good for fishing.
, that’s why we came here.”
Hearing this, the bearded man muttered: "I don't know which bastard leaked it? He actually provoked someone here."
"I think it's nothing anyway. At the worst, I can charge you some money and let them catch the fish. I won't do it next time." The tall, thin old man seemed to value money, so he went directly to negotiate with Gu Chen: "It's okay to let you fish here, but then you can pay for it."
How much?"
"Fishing is just for fun. I'll pay for it. At worst, the weight will be calculated at twice the market price. What do you think?" Gu Chen said.
At first glance, Gu Chen looked like an experienced fisherman. The tall, thin old man wanted to make money, but he was a little hesitant.
Gu Chen saw that twice was not enough to whet the appetite of these people, so he added: "If twice is not enough, then triple it. As long as the fish here are delicious and three times higher than the market price, it is not impossible. We are not short of money."
"Yes, there's no shortage of money." Yuan Shasha also said.
"Well, here I have some aquatic products salvaged from the reservoir, such as fish, turtles, loaches and so on."
"If you want to buy, I can sell you some at a cheap price. What do you think?"
The tall and thin old man also gave his own thoughts. It seemed that he wanted to make a small amount of money from these people, but also did not want these people to stay here too much, so he came up with a compromise plan.
When Gu Chen heard that there was something going on, he pretended to agree: "Let's see what it looks like? If it's good, we can buy some back."
Glancing at Nie Xiaoyu, Gu Chen said again: "Xiaoyu."
"Ah?" Nie Xiaoyu was stunned and hurriedly asked Gu Chen: "Brother Gu Chen, what's the matter?"
"Buy some loaches back home, Master Nie should want them, right?" Gu Chen asked.
Nie Xiaoyu smiled and said: "As long as it's food, there's nothing you don't want. If you have it, he can make it."
"Okay, let's... go take a look?" Gu Chen looked at the tall, thin old man.
The tall, thin old man nodded, then glanced at his chin with a smile and asked the bearded man to lead the way.
The two of them walked in the front row, while everyone else followed in the back row, walking together along the reservoir dam.
After walking for about ten minutes, everyone discovered that there was a small house built with red bricks under the slope of the reservoir.
The house is neither big nor small, about 40 square meters.
Gu Chen felt that it should be the room where these two people were on duty.
The tall, thin old man and the bearded man were mysterious. They kept talking together and they seemed to have some small differences, but the problem was not big.
When they came to the door, the tall and thin old man asked the bearded man to open the door first. Then the tall and thin old man came to Gu Chen and said, "We can sell you some of the aquatic products here cheaply, but you don't want them here."
Stayed too long.”
"Why?" Gu Chen pretended not to know. After looking around for a week, he suddenly asked him with a smile: "Are there still tigers here?"
"No." The tall, thin old man waved his hands and then added: "Because around early in the morning, people will come to bring goods to the market. These are aquatic products that have been ordered by others."
"I also see that you like fishing, so I will sell you some. Don't let these people who sell goods find out, otherwise we will be deducted from the money."
"Haha." After hearing what the tall and thin old man said, Lu Weiwei smiled curiously: "Didn't you contract this reservoir? You sold us some aquatic products. Are you still afraid of being blamed by the person who bought the goods? Aren't you the boss?"
Of course, Lu Weiwei knew that these two people were not the boss, but she said this deliberately so that these two people would not expose themselves.
Sure enough, under Lu Weiwei's words, the tall and thin old man said: "We are not bosses, we are working for others. We are responsible for salvaging aquatic products from the reservoir and then handing them over to the sellers in the market."
"The main thing is that these people are hard to mess with and have bad tempers. I'm also afraid that you will suffer a loss, so you'd better leave before midnight."
Glancing at Nie Xiaoyu, the tall, thin old man said again: "You like to eat aquatic products. I can sell you some at a low price at worst. In short, you'd better come to this place less often."
Seeing that the tall, thin old man spoke so clearly, Gu Chen naturally knew that there must be something fishy here, so he pretended to be embarrassed and said:
"But we came all the way from the city to fish here. You can't just let us leave right after we come here, right? Why don't you let us wander around here? I feel that the scenery and air here are good, and it's very
It’s cool.”
Gu Chen glanced at Lu Weiwei beside him.
Lu Weiwei understood immediately, so she said: "Yes, it is such a good place with fresh air. It is a rare trip to come here. You must have the fun of fishing no matter what."
Looking at the helpless look on the tall and thin old man's face, Lu Weiwei continued: "Uncle, just let us fish here for a while. We promise to leave before early morning, oh no, 11 o'clock, head office before 11 o'clock, right?"
"No, it really can't." The tall, thin old man seemed determined.
But at this moment, the bearded man also came out and said to the tall, thin old man: "They are all in there. Let them come in and pick out whatever they need."
"Okay." The tall and thin old man nodded. He glanced at Gu Chen and said, "Come in and take a look first. The aquatic products here are very good, and they are all caught from the reservoir. Compared with your fishing there,
, time is saved for you.”
Gu Chen didn't hesitate this time, so he readily agreed: "Okay, let's go in and have a look."
Everyone followed the bearded man and the tall, thin old man and walked into the small house together.
At this moment, everyone discovered that cooking tools were placed in the living room of the cabin, and on the other side was a double bed with bunk beds.
In another room is the warehouse of this building.
Only then did everyone discover that there were many buckets inside, and in the buckets were various fish, loaches and turtles.
According to the buckets of different colors, there are different types of creatures. There are many and they are very large, which makes people dazzled.
Gu Chen secretly turned on the camera on his mobile phone and took the video intentionally or unintentionally.
Lu Weiwei also stepped forward to cover and asked weakly: "So many? Are they all from the reservoir?"
The tall, thin old man hesitated for a few seconds, and then asked Lu Weiwei: "Where do you all live?"
"Furong District." Lu Weiwei said.
"Oh, that's quite far." After learning that these people came from the urban area and were far away from Hongshan Town, the tall and thin old man relaxed his vigilance and replied:
"All the species here are raised in the reservoir. They are exactly the same as those in the reservoir. You can actually buy them here."
Seeing Nie Xiaoyu take the initiative to step forward and start picking fish like an expert, the bearded man also said calmly:
"Normally, the aquatic products we have here are not sold to outsiders. Even if you come all the way to fish, you don't know that this reservoir has been contracted, otherwise we would not sell it to you."
"So it seems we got a big deal?" Gu Chen deliberately said teasingly.
The bearded man smiled and said: "Isn't it? But it's just this one time. I won't sell it next time. If you want to eat aquatic products, you can go to the market to buy them. Our aquatic products here are usually ordered by others.
The way is to wholesale it on a large scale to other people, and give one or two to you all."
"That's true." Officer Wang saw that these aquatic products were about to be taken away, so he also smiled teasingly: "We don't know the situation here very well, so we thought our trip was in vain, but fortunately we met you guys
Two good people."
This chapter is not over yet, please click on the next page to continue reading! "Where is it?" The tall and thin old man took out a pack of cigarettes, picked up two cigarettes, and handed one to Officer Wang and the other to Gu Chen.
Officer Wang accepted, but Gu Chen refused.
Then the tall, thin old man put the cigarette in his mouth, took out a lighter and lit it for Officer Wang and himself.
When Gu Chen saw that he was almost successful with the tall and thin old man, he couldn't help but asked him out of curiosity: "Uncle, I just saw a merit plaque at the other end of the reservoir. What else was written on that merit plaque, 'Hanyin Releases Life Reservoir'"
The words , and the signatures of many people, what the hell is this?"
"It's not harmful." The tall, thin old man took a puff of cigarette, and then puffed out a puff of smoke and said: "It was built by Hanyin Temple down below. They regard this as a release pond, and organize people to come here every week to release animals.
."
"Release?" Gu Chen pretended to be shocked, and then said: "I feel like this place still needs to release animals? A lot of aquatic products are thrown into the reservoir. Wouldn't it be too crowded?"
"Isn't that right? There are too many fish, loaches and so on here." The tall, thin old man took a puff of cigarette and said, "Release is popular these days."
"If you go to flower, bird, fish and insect markets in various places, you will find that wild sparrows, mynas, thrushes and other animals are collectively called 'released birds' and have become new species with unique functions."
"Is there such a thing?" Lu Weiwei pretended to be shocked and said flatteringly: "That...that's quite strange. This is the first time I've heard of it."
"Haha, you little girl seems to have little knowledge." Seeing Lu Weiwei's face as if she was a primary school student asking for advice, the tall and thin old man couldn't help but explain:
"This is actually nothing. For example, every year in August and September, a large number of whitened dead catfish will appear on the water in front of the Shicha Lake in the capital, ranging from hundreds of kilograms to thousands of kilograms."
"Eh? I know this. My hometown is in the capital." Lu Weiwei finally found the entry point and quickly agreed: "When I was a child, I really found that there were always some dead catfish turning white in these places, and I didn't even know they were there.
What's going on? It looks so pity."
"So you are from the capital?" The tall and thin old man couldn't help but be stunned, and then he said politely: "Isn't that true? Catfish like these were actually released during the release and blessing ceremony of the Shichahai Fire Temple."
"Catfish like these are artificially raised and are not 'aboriginal' to the Shichahai Sea. They are not adapted to the water environment there."
"So after being released, they will die soon. I worked as a long-term worker there for a period of time, and I carried catfish for these people who released them."
"So that's it?" Lu Weiwei looked surprised and couldn't help but said: "It seems that the mystery of the catfish's death has finally been solved. I wonder why I always saw this kind of situation back then."
"Haha." The tall and thin old man saw that Lu Weiwei was a girl from the capital, and that he had let catfish there before, so he said familiarly:
"Little girl, let me tell you, in fact, this kind of tragedy of "releasing life" to "releasing death" really happens quite often."
"Every year on the seventh and eighteenth day of the lunar calendar, hundreds of sparrows will appear in some parks and suburbs in many cities, dying in the grass. You may not see this often.
."
"Yeah." Lu Weiwei nodded silently and said with a smile: "This is quite rare."
"It's quite rare, that's right. If there is a place where there is a release group, it wouldn't be strange." The tall and thin old man was smoking a cigarette, also leisurely.
Gu Chen curiously asked him: "How to say?"
"How do you say that?" The old man smiled and shook his head: "Actually, these sparrows were bought and released. Because sparrows have the characteristic of not eating 'food that comes from outside', and the environment for release is not suitable and other factors, they
It is easy for the released sparrows to die in large numbers."
Gu Chen frowned and continued to ask: "Then releasing lives in this way, doesn't it deviate from the original meaning of releasing lives? It may even cause endless harm?"
"That's the truth." The tall, thin old man threw the cigarette he had finished smoking on the ground, rolled it up with his toes a few times, and then said: "A release like this, in fact, does not care about the life and death of the animals. It is often a 'release' change."
Let him die'."
"So, releasing animals is actually a technical activity that pays attention to the 'right time and right place'. Professionals are needed to study whether the environment is suitable for the survival of the released organisms. They also need to consider the season and climate of the release."
Glancing at the reservoir in front of him, the tall and thin old man added: "Just like some artificially bred animals, they basically can't survive in the wild."
"Wild animals also need rewilding training to re-adapt to survival in the wild. However, many released animals just buy live animals and release them without paying attention to the life and death of the released animals."
"Then the Hongshan Reservoir should be suitable for releasing animals, right?" Gu Chen interrupted and asked.
