Chapter two hundred and eighty fifth boat shooting fish
For more than two weeks, Ju An was bothered by this matter. It wasn't until the judge sent the two kidnappers to jail that he had some time off. The story of wolves rescuing children also spread in the town.
, everyone has become concerned about the wolves in the mountains. From time to time, some people go to the mountains to see wolves.
No one was harmed when observing the wolves with cameras. As long as they were not too close to the wolves, the wolves basically ignored people standing far away with cameras. In this way, the reputation of the wolves became more and more popular in nearby towns.
The louder it got, some people nearby even threw scraps of meat onto the mountain, waiting for the wolves to come and eat it.
The first thing I did after I had some time off was to decide to pick a bow with a heavier draw weight. I hope that in next year's competition I would at least be in the middle of nowhere. It would be embarrassing if I didn't stay in the bottom place at all times.
This time, Ju An directly picked up a recurve bow with a metal handle in an outdoor supplies store. The draw weight was 50 pounds. It was easier to pull it when he tried it. The entire black bow body with a metallic light also suited Ju An very well.
Due to my aesthetic taste, in order to reduce the number of times I pick up arrows as much as possible, I decided to stay safe this time.
I just bought three dozen carbon arrows and brought a quiver with me, so that I can put the arrows in the quiver and carry it on my body. When I use it, I can just draw it. It took Ju An a lot to get the whole set of equipment.
For almost two thousand dollars, the supplies store finally gave Ju An an archery target made of cattail grass.
After buying Gong Ju'an, I listened to the car at home and happily entered the house. When I saw my mother and sister watching a few little monkeys playing under the porch, I waved the bow in my hand as if to show off and said: "
Look! The new bow I bought looks good, doesn’t it?"
The mother looked at the bow in Ju An's hand and said, "How much did this fever cost?".
Ju An patted his quiver and replied: "Nearly two thousand dollars in total."
After hearing this, my mother was furious and said: "More than 10,000 yuan can buy a bow. You are really good at it. Now my hometown can buy two buffaloes."
Ju An listened to his mother's words and said with a smile: "My bow is relatively heavy, with a draw weight of more than 40 kilograms. Forget it, I won't tell you, I will go to the backyard to practice."
After entering the room, she met Dinah who was holding a tray. After Dinah showed off, she put down the tray, picked up the bow in Ju An's hand and tried to pull it: "The draw force of this bow is relatively heavy, I guess it is
Suitable for you".
After kissing Dinah on the face, Ju An took the bow from Dinah's hand and said, "I'm going to practice. Why aren't you watching the children at the door with your mother and sister? Are you going to practice the piano?
”.
Dinah nodded: "I just came in to give my mother and sister two cups of tea. After sending them, I will go upstairs to practice the piano." After saying that, she picked up the tray placed on the coffee table and walked towards the door.
Ju An put the bow box casually in the living room. He put the quiver on his back and walked out of the house with the bow in his hand. He said to his mother and the three of them, "I'm going to practice archery behind the house."
The moment he saw Hu Tou lying at his mother's feet, with his tongue hanging out and gasping for air, an idea came to Ju An's mind and he snapped his fingers at Hu Tou: "Tiger Tou, follow me."
Hutou heard Ju An's voice, and happily followed Ju An with his tail wagging. At this time, his mother also stood up and said, "Look at San'er's dress. I'll go and see what San'er looks like."
How is the arrow shooting? You watch the children here, I will come and take a look."
Ju Rao nodded: "Mom, go and play with San'er. I'll just watch from here."
When his mother said this, Ju An slowed down and waited for his mother to follow. Then they walked together towards the back of the house. When they got to the back of the house, Ju An hung the archery target on the tree trunk and walked back for ten minutes.
A few steps away, he raised his hand and took out an arrow from the quiver on his shoulder and put it on the bowstring. With a whoosh, the arrow flew out of the string and hit the edge of the target.
Then he shot all the arrows in the quiver, and most of them hit the target. Some of them flew far away. Ju An shook the arrows in his hand and shouted at the tiger's head: "Go and shoot the arrows."
Find me the arrows that are far away." After hearing this, the tiger head waggled its tail and ran out. Ju An also walked towards the target, pulled out the arrow on it, and put it into the quiver behind him.
When he walked next to his mother, Hu Tou found the first arrow that flew away. He held it in his mouth and brought it back to Ju An. He actually took the arrow and touched Hu Tou's head. Hu Tou was happy again.
Went back to look for arrows.
Just as he was about to draw the bow, he was stopped by the mother next to him: "Wait until the tiger's head has retrieved all the arrows and you are shooting. What will you do if you are so accurate and shoot the tiger's head?" After that, he sighed.
He looked at Ju'an's self-defense equipment and said, "It's really a waste of more than ten thousand yuan. You can practice slowly while I watch my grandson." He shook his head and turned away.
Ju An broke out in a cold sweat and shouted to his mother: "Mom, can't you encourage me? What you say hurts your self-esteem."
My mother waved her hand without looking back: "You are an arrow shooter, but you also spent more than ten thousand to buy clothes. Tell your father to go directly to your hometown to find a piece of bamboo, skim it, bake it on the fire, and pull it with a rope.
That’s it.”
"I am shooting arrows, not playing cotton," Ju An said loudly with a smile.
Mom continued: "You are really not as good as playing cotton."
Seeing his mother's figure disappearing behind the tree, Ju An didn't draw his bow and waited for the tiger's head to retrieve all the flying arrows. He squatted at his feet and then drew his bow again.
Come.
After emptying the quiver three times, Ju An's hands became slightly sore. He directed the tiger head to pick up the arrows again, raised his feet and walked towards the target. At this time, the cell phone in his pocket rang.
I took it out and saw it was from Thornton.
"Hello! Ann, is this you? I'm Thornton. Are you busy now?" Thornton's voice came through the phone.
Ju An laughed twice: "It's me, what's the matter? I'm not busy right now. I'm practicing archery behind my house with the recurve bow I just bought."
Thornton continued: "Taylor asked me to call you and ask if you are free tomorrow. Taylor and I are going to go fishing in the river tomorrow. Do you want to go together?"
After hearing this, Ju An said: "Go fishing in a boat in the river? You can just go to the lake next to the town. Why go to the river?"
"The lake boats in town are not fun to drive. If you have nothing to do, come with us. Then you can bring your bow and arrows to the river to shoot fish. I guarantee you will have a good time." Thornton said on the other end. It seemed that Taylor was also there.
Next to him, someone was saying something to Thornton, but Ju An didn't hear it clearly.
"Shooting fish?" Ju An smacked his lips twice: "I haven't even practiced shooting at the target yet, so I have to shoot fish in the water? Isn't that too advanced?"
Thornton laughed twice and explained: "The fish is not in the water. The fish will jump out of the water and wait for it to shoot when it jumps out of the water. It is very interesting."
"Jump out of the water?" Ju An immediately became curious: "What kind of fish is so awesome and can jump out of the water?"
Thornton replied: "These fish come from China. They are called Asian carp. They can jump one or two meters out of the water. You will know when you go there. Do you want to go and see it?"
After hearing Thornton's words, Ju An became very curious: "Okay! When will we set off tomorrow and where will we meet? What should we prepare?"
"You don't need to drive tomorrow. The two of us will pick you up at your house at eight o'clock. Then the three of us will drive together in a car. Just bring your bow and arrows. If possible, prepare some beer or something else.
Don't bring anything with you. We'll be back in the evening and just have grilled fish for lunch." Thornton replied on the other end.
"Okay! I'll bring two bottles of beer. I'll wait for you directly at the gate of the ranch tomorrow morning. Don't drive your car into the ranch," Ju An said with a smile.
"Then it's settled, don't forget to open the door of your ranch at eight o'clock in the morning."
"I can't forget, I'll see you then," Ju An said with a smile.
After finding all the arrows, Ju An took the archery target and returned to the house. At this time, his mother had returned to the house to cook. Only his sister was sitting under the porch, drinking tea and watching a few children and Tai.
They were playing with each other. After all, children are interested in everything. The five little kids had a great time chasing each other around in the yard. Strings of laughter burst out from their mouths, and the whole house was full of laughter.
All with a happy atmosphere.
After entering the house, Ju An said to his mother and Dinah who were cooking: "Don't look at the children anymore. There is no one in this ranch who can take them away silently."
Mom shook her head: "Look at it, I feel at ease. Your brother and sister-in-law brought Ran Ran to us. If there is something wrong with this, it will be really fatal. Your dad, an old guy, follows the cowboys all day long.
They were herding cattle and letting go of family affairs. I told him how many times he would stay at home and watch the grandchildren, and he would sneak out as soon as he got up in the morning."
After hearing this, Ju An comforted him and said: "You are too worried. I have tens of thousands of acres of pasture, and even if the kidnappers come, I have to walk a long circle. The easy walking areas are surrounded by railings. Do the kidnappers rely on two
Legs walking in?".
After hearing this, Dinah burst into laughter: "Ann, just stop talking and let mom watch it. If she wasn't always worried."
Ju An nodded after listening to Dinah's words: "Forget it, you can watch it if you want. By the way, I will follow Thornton and Taylor to go fishing in the river tomorrow morning, and I won't be back at noon to tell you.
"One sound".
"Whose boat? It takes nearly two hours to get to the river where a boat can be driven." Dinah asked.
Ju An was stunned when he heard this: "So far away? These two old men are really energetic, traveling so far to sail a boat! I didn't ask whose boat it was, I guess they borrowed it from someone else on the river, and they said I could do it.
Shooting fish with a bow and arrow from a boat”.
After hearing this, Dinah smiled and said: "There are basically no people living by the river. Where can I borrow a boat? I guess they will drag their own boat there tomorrow. As for shooting fish on the water, it is true. The boat is in the river.
Once the water surface is stirred, many fish will jump out of the water and you can shoot them, but you should bring more arrows with your aim."
Ju An nodded after hearing this: "That's right, I'll go tomorrow to see what kind of fish can jump one or two meters out of the water." (To be continued...)
