I Can Turn into a Fish

phone-reading

Mom, let's go shopping in the city tomorrow.

In the evening, the Chu Xian family had dinner with their uncle and aunt, and said to their parents after the meal.

I'm not going tomorrow. I have to go get water for Ziran. If I don't go, your sister won't be able to coax her. This little guy is busy every day. Tomorrow is the last day. You take Xiaoying to hang out with us.

There's nothing fun here in our house. Chu Xian's sister and brother-in-law used to go out to work together, and Chu's mother would take care of Ziran. In the heart of the boy, Ziran is still closer to his grandma. When he was in the water, he cried out that only Chu's mother could do. Coax well.

Take Xiaoying to Qinshan Lake tomorrow. The winter fishing will start tomorrow. There are so many people there. Chu's father said, smoking a cigarette.

Winter hunting starts tomorrow? Chu Xian had a look of surprise on his face.

Well, starting tomorrow, the weather forecast shows that the temperature will reach minus 20 degrees, which is just right. Father Chu nodded.

Okay, then I'll take Xiaoying over tomorrow to have a look. Chu Xian had a happy look on his face.

What winter hunt? Xiaoying looked at Chu Xian curiously.

It's fishing. Chu Xian explained to her: In our Yi City, there is a large lake, Yishan Lake. It is among the top 30 lakes in China. It is connected to the Yangtze River. Every winter, a winter fishing event is held. .”

The winter here is relatively cold. Yishan Lake usually freezes in December, but it is not as thick as one or two meters in the northeast. The ice here is up to half a meter, but even if people stand on it, And nothing.”

Winter fishing is a custom that has been passed down for hundreds of years in the Washan District of Yi City. In recent years, every winter fishing has attracted a lot of people. Winter fishing is also very exciting.

Chu Xian recalled his past participation in winter fishing with a smile on his face.

Really? Let's go take a look tomorrow. Xiaoying heard him say, with a look of anticipation on her face.

Chu Xian nodded.

The next morning, after Chu Xian and Xiaoying had breakfast, they drove towards Washan District.

Yishan Lake in Washan District is not very close to their home. It takes more than 40 minutes to drive. The car is a Changan worth RMB 10,000 that my sister bought when she got married. The other is a newly bought BMW x5. Zi Ran needs to be taken to the hospital. .

When Chu Xian and Xiaoying arrived at Yishan Lake, various cars were parked on both sides of the surrounding roads. Looking towards Yishan Lake from a distance, there were at least a thousand people on it.

Wow, there are so many people. Xiaoying looked at the people on the lake with a look of surprise on her face.

Chu Xian and Xiao Ying's family are in opposite locations in the north and south. The distance between the two families is at least ten hours by train, so the temperature difference is huge. The river in Xiao Ying's hometown rarely freezes. Now I see a person walking It was very strange to be on the river.

Let's go down. Chu Xian directly held Xiaoying's hand and walked down.

Now that all schools are on holiday, there are many children coming to Yishan Lake, and they are skating on the lake excitedly. This natural skating rink is much more fun than that kind of ice rink.

Come. Chu Xian took Xiaoying and ran directly towards the river along a path.

Slow down. Xiaoying was pulled by his arm and shouted with worry on her face.

Haha, it's okay. Do you want me to carry you? Chu Xian laughed, and without waiting for her reaction, he grabbed both of her arms and bent down to carry her on his back.

Run slowly, it's dangerous. Xiaoying hugged his neck tightly and warned.

Don't worry, believe it or not, I can fly even if I carry you on my back. Chu Xian said hehey.

Then you fly, I'll see how you fly. Xiaoying lay on top of him and gave him a white eye.

Then you have to watch out. Chu Xian smiled, because there was a slope of tens of meters when he reached the lake, so he jumped directly down.

Ah! Xiaoying was startled when she saw him suddenly kicking the ground, and she closed her eyes in fear.

Don't be afraid, baby, hehe! Seeing Xiaoying's reaction, Chu Xian quickly comforted him. It might be difficult for him to fly now.

But there is no problem in letting him jump more than ten meters.

But here it is obviously impossible for him to show it.

Slow down, or you'll put me down. Xiaoying said with some fear.

Okay, I'll slow down. Chu Xian smiled and walked slowly towards the distance.

Yishan Lake covers an area of ​​about more than 200 square kilometers, stretching as far as the eye can see. There is also the entrance of the Yangtze River on one side. The water of the Yangtze River is flowing and not frozen. However, when you go deep into the interior of Qinshan Lake, Qinshan Lake The lake began to freeze.

Chu Xian's hometown is the coldest city in the Yangtze River Basin.

When he reached the lake, Chu Xian slid hard, and under the strong inertia, he slid five or six meters away.

Quick, put me down. Xiaoying patted his back excitedly.

Okay. Chu Xian smiled and placed her on the lake.

Those who have never skated on the lake will never know the fun involved. Xiaoying stood on it and took two cautious steps.

Chu Xian immediately walked over and pulled her to slide forward.

Ah, don't pull me. Xiaoying shouted loudly and squatted down in panic.

Chu Xian chuckled: Then you squat on top, I will pull you, and we go to the fishing place.

He turned into a sled dog in an instant, holding Xiaoying's arm with one hand and running quickly on the ice.

Xiaoying slid forward quickly as if she were sitting on a pulley.

Ah! Chu Xian shouted and suddenly let go of her arm.

Xiaoying was let go by him, and her body slid forward with inertia, screaming from her mouth.

Haha. Chu Xian smiled, immediately caught up with her, blocked her in front of her, and hugged her body.

You bad guy, stay away from me. Xiaoying glared at him and slowly stood up.

Okay, let's go take a look at the place in front. Chu Xian smiled and helped her up, and the two of them slowly walked towards the place inside.

In the center, there are many people gathered there. Some are holding ice drilling machines and are breaking the ice to lower the nets. In some places, a long hole has been drilled and fishing nets are placed on it.

There are many fish in Yishan Lake. In normal times, fishing is prohibited in Yishan Lake. It is only allowed during the annual winter fishing. And even if fishing nets are used, special fishing nets and meshes are required. It's so big that you can't catch small fish.

Come on, let's go to that place. After they walked a few hundred meters, Chu Xian suddenly saw a group of people wearing colorful clothes gathering on the right.

Huh? What are you doing there? Xiaoying looked over in confusion.

Winter fishing is their national custom in Washan District, so they will hold a ceremony to sacrifice the lake and wake up the nets before winter fishing. The lake sacrifice is a sacrifice to the lake god, and the net wake-up is a sacrifice to the fishing nets. By offering sacrifices to the lake, they offer sacrifices to the Heavenly Father, The Mother of the Earth and the God of the Lake protect the sustainable reproduction of all living things and the good and healthy life of the people; they believe that there are gods attached to the fishing nets. The fishing nets have been sleeping for a long time after being put into the warehouse during the non-fishing period, and they need to be awakened before fishing. This ceremony expresses people's prayers. I wish you good luck and peace when you go down to the lake with a net.

Of course, people now know that this is superstitious, but this custom has not been abolished, but is very popular among people.

Are they wearing colorful clothes going to dance? Xiaoying asked curiously.

Yes, there are many people named He in the entire Wasashan District. It is their traditional dance. Later, some aunts also participated in it. It was very interesting.

The two walked to the front, surrounded by several flags. There were people from the Washan District Cultural Organization Department nearby, and many people gathered around them.

After the leader gave a brief introductory speech, the mysterious and enthusiastic sacrificial ceremony began, with everyone dancing strange dances.

Lower the net! After the dance, an old man shouted, and then dozens of men slowly lowered the fishing net into the dug lake.

Can you catch fish just like this? Xiaoying asked curiously as this was her first time encountering winter fishing.

Of course, winter fishing is very interesting, because the lake is frozen, and as long as you open a mouth, fish will swim over. In our case, a net can weigh 70,000 to 80,000 kilograms. Chu Xian said with a smile.

Seven to eighty thousand catties? Oh my god, that's so much! Xiaoying was surprised.

Is it a lot? Our winter fishing here is relatively small due to limited conditions. Do you know how many kilograms are caught in one net in the famous Jingbo Lake in China? Eight hundred and sixty thousand kilograms.

There is also Chagan Lake, a famous winter fishing area. Tens of thousands of people gather during winter fishing, and the scene is huge. Nights are also held on the lake at night. Many first-line stars have been invited to perform. CCTV has also conducted this reports.”

That's really grand. Xiaoying opened her mouth slightly.

Yes. Chu Xian nodded: Today is the first day of winter fishing. There will be many interesting things. Come and I will take you fishing. It will be very interesting.

How to fish? Do we need to cut the ice on the lake? Xiaoying asked excitedly.

That's right, we're going to rent a fishing rod and have someone dig a hole for us.

Chu Xian smiled and took Xiaoying to a stall with a table not far away. There were small fishing rods and bait on the table, and there was a middle-aged man holding an ice cutting machine.

Boss, rent two fishing rods and dig two holes for us.

Okay young man, if we want to dig holes, I can dig two of them for you in the designated area, right?

Okay. Chu Xian nodded, leading Xiaoying to follow the middle-aged man.

The ice in Yishan Lake is not as thick as the ice in lakes in the Northeast. If holes are dug at will, the ice surface will collapse, so it is stipulated in a specific area.
