The live broadcast life of Lao Linzi in Northeast China

Chapter 663
"It seems that there is a fish called 'jumping fish'. It jumps very high and can jump up to four to five meters above the water surface. It can be said to be the 'high jump champion' among fish."

"Although carp also like to jump over the dragon's gate, they can basically jump about one meter out of the water."

Studio.

"That much difference?"

"Five or six meters?! Really?"

"This is too exaggerated!"

"I'll go, five or six meters?! This is higher than an athlete's jump!"

"Jumping fish? What kind of fish is that?"

"A kind of fish that...cannot be kept in a fish tank."

"Haha, there's nothing wrong with it, after all, this fish can easily jump onto the roof!"

Li Yuan smiled and said: "Actually, it's not that exaggerated. Although this kind of fish can jump high, it doesn't just jump around there every day. Appear."

Studio.

"what's going on?"

"Then how can you see the jumping fish jumping high?"

"That's right. It's said that carp can jump over the dragon's gate, but I haven't seen it once."

"Earthquakes and lack of oxygen make fish jump, right?"

"No way? Isn't that a natural disaster?"

Li Yuan nodded.

"It is true that fish will only dive in some natural disasters. Especially when the geological environment changes, fish are also one of the first animals to feel it."

"For example, on the eve of some earthquake disasters, the earth's magnetic field will change accordingly, and fish will feel restless on the water surface when they feel threatened, seeking a safe environment for refuge."

"In addition, in order to avoid the sudden attack of the enemy, they will also cross the obstacles on the way. Or when they are threatened by some sudden threats, the fish will also have this instinctive diving reaction in order to survive."

"In addition to the external situation, there is another reason, which is the physiological changes of the fish itself. For example, when the fish is about to reproduce, some nerve-stimulating things will be produced in their bodies, so that it will be in a long time. I am in a state of excitement, so I especially like to jump."

"There are also sturgeons. They jumped the Dragon Gate and appeared specifically for the purpose of multiplying offspring. On the contrary, they have nothing to do with the mythical 'Jackie Chan'."

Sturgeons spawn mostly in the upper reaches of rivers where the water temperature is lower and the flow velocity is higher.This kind of flow pattern is complex, the river channel is wide and narrow, and there are many rapids with gravel bottom.

However, in such a place, every time the sturgeon spawns, it is the place where the sturgeon appears the most.

For example, the famous Longmen area at the junction of Shanxi and Shanxi provinces is one of the locations with such landform features. Every year when the sturgeon spawns, various zoologists often come here to study them. habit.

That scene... can be said to be quite spectacular.

Studio.

"Sturgeons are for laying eggs. I've heard of that."

"Well, I was lucky enough to see it once. The sight of the sturgeon hitting the spawn...it's really spectacular."

"So many fish have the habit of jumping over the dragon's gate?"

"When will I be able to see it with my own eyes...it must be shocking!"

"What about the Longmen Chihe phenomenon?"

"Longmen Chihe? What does that mean?"

In the live broadcast room, many people had never heard of this word, so many people asked questions in the live broadcast room curiously, but no one answered for a long time.

but……

Within a few seconds, Li Yuan's voice came.

"The so-called Chihe River in Longmen is actually just the male and female chase before spawning. Sturgeon will often jump out of the water at this stage. And every spring, a large number of sturgeon will swim back to Longmen Cave to gather, and Frequent jumps in the two or three days before laying eggs."

"When they jump out of the water, the bloodshot and red fins of the sturgeon will also be exposed. For a while, thousands of big fish are flipping on the river surface. Looking at it from a distance, it is naturally like a red light. , and it is precisely because of this that the description 'Chihe' is given."

The scene of the Chihe River can reach several miles at most, and even last for several days.

It is precisely because of this that there are peculiar phenomena of "Three Days on the Chihe River" and "Three Miles on the Chihe River".

In fact, the carp jumping over the dragon's gate has been legendary since ancient times.

The earliest theory is that the Longmen was not opened, and the flow of Yishui here was blocked by the Longmen Mountain, so a large lake accumulated in the south of the mountain.The carp living in the Yellow River heard that Longmen was beautiful, so they all wanted to go sightseeing.

It is said that these carp started from the Yellow River in Mengjin, Henan, passed through the Luohe River, and followed the Yihe River to the place where the water splashed in Longmen, but there was no waterway at the location of Longmen Mountain.

These fish gathered at the foot of Longmen North Mountain for a long time, and finally a big red carp raised the attention of crossing Longmen Mountain.

However, no one responded to the big red carp's idea at the beginning, after all, it is easy to fall to death directly after jumping from such a high height.

At this time, the big red carp volunteered as the first experiment.

I saw it exerting all its strength from half a mile away, jumping like an arrow off the string, jumping into the clouds for half a day, driving the clouds and rain in the sky forward.A cloud of sky fire chased after it and burned its tail.

Enduring the pain, it continued to leap forward, and finally crossed Longmen Mountain, fell into the lake in the south of the mountain, and turned into a giant dragon in the blink of an eye.

When the other fish saw their companion jumping into a dragon, they were naturally very envious, so they followed suit one after another, wanting to become a dragon like their companion.

Then...it is precisely because of this that there is this allusion of "carp leaping over the dragon's gate".

Studio.

"So, this is actually just a legend?"

"This story is too mythical."

"A fish can become a dragon... It must be a myth!"

"Don't be so serious, everyone, this is just an inspirational story..."

"So, the carp jumping over the dragon's gate doesn't really turn into a dragon, it's just a beautiful fantasy of everyone."

"I'm already starting to think about whether this 'carp leaping over the dragon's gate' incident really happened."

Li Yuan smiled and said: "Although it sounds like a myth, this story actually happened, and the location is also in the Longmen Grottoes in Luoyang."

Although the story is mythical...but the carp actually jumped over the dragon gate.

Li Yuan: "Presumably everyone should have heard of the poet Li Bai's "Gift to Cui Shiyu"?"

"'The three-foot carp of the Yellow River originally lived in Mengjin, but it didn't become a dragon when it was tapped, and it came back with ordinary fish'. The 'Mengjin' mentioned in the poem is the current Luoyang jurisdiction, facing the Yellow River in the north."

"However, if we want to talk about this verse, we have to talk about another version of the carp leaping over the dragon's gate. In today's words...that is another ENDING."

"It is rumored that after Yu Biyique, the current was so fast that the carps swimming in the Yellow River in Yujin went upstream along the water of Luo and Yi. Over this monstrous wave."
