He showed off endlessly, and his thoughts suddenly came to him. Master Jiu was stunned for a moment after listening to this poor vernacular.
When I finished speaking, he grinned with surprise on his face: "Ouch... I really didn't realize it. You act like a gangster and you know a lot."
"That's right, as the saying goes, you have a lot of experience and a lot of experience. People who are awesome tend to be low-key." Taking the opportunity to brag about your awesomeness, your waist is sore and your legs are not hurting, and your whole body feels relaxed.
"Haha, let's pull you down. You are said to be fat and you are breathless. However, it is really not easy. Few young people like you know this kind of thing these days. Tell me, who can do this?
What did you say?" Seeing me looking satisfied, Master Jiu shook his head.
"Oh, it's a long story." I said without being polite, sitting on the sofa on the side and trying to show off with a smile.
"Don't be in a hurry, tell me slowly." Hearing this, Master Jiu walked to the side and made a pot of herbal tea. There was nothing going on anyway. After adjusting my mentality, I told him some things I had encountered before.
My name was given by the old Taoist priest in ragged clothes, and he also taught me these things. Before I met Jin Jiuye, this man was one of the strangest people I had ever seen.
To say that he is a strange person is absolutely true. Three generations of our family firmly believe in this.
The old man and I have known each other for a long time. In fact, he has been in my house since I was born.
This man is very interesting and funny, and it is said that he has a great connection with my ancestors.
In my impression, he is a perverted old man who is very greedy for drinking. He drinks too much and blushes when he drinks too much. He has a very interesting smile with a red nose.
In daily life, most of the time, the Taoist priests of the Zhengyi sect rarely wear Taoist robes. The Taoist priests of the Quanzhen sect who wear Taoist robes every day are not allowed to drink alcohol and eat meat. But this guy is different. Judging from his appearance, he is a full-time monk.
A true Taoist priest has a decent appearance and rarely wears casual clothes, but he is such a person, he is not taboo about chicken, duck and fish, and occasionally shows a lecherous look, which does not look like a good thing.
You could say that he is a magician who deceives the world and steals his reputation. He also has some real abilities that are difficult for ordinary people to achieve.
You could say that he is a master of Taoism, but despite his slovenly appearance, he still lacks the spirit of immortality.
In the final analysis, this man is a contradiction.
The meeting that impressed me the most was one night.
That winter, the first heavy snow came very late. As soon as the snow fell, I happily took the guys with me and pestered my third grandfather to go up the mountain to catch rabbits together.
At that time, we did not have the advanced equipment we have now. In addition to following the footprints to find rabbit nests, there were only two main ways to catch rabbits: one was to use a high-brightness flashlight to search in the middle of the night, and the other was to use the most traditional rabbit traps and traps.
So.
When placing the lasso on the clip, it is usually done at night.
I'll catch them in the middle of the night and pick them up the next morning. If I'm lucky, I can always catch one or two, but if I'm not lucky, I won't catch anything.
Therefore, this method of using the lasso is only an auxiliary method. The most important thing is to use the specially processed large flashlight of Grandpa San.
He has something similar to a searchlight, connected to a small battery. The illumination distance of this thing is quite large, and the brightness is also very high. In the snow, he uses the searchlight to slowly illuminate the ground at an angle parallel to the ground.
With such a sweep, it is basically a large circle with a radius of several hundred meters.
Many small beasts come out at night. Everyone knows this. What many people don't know is that when these beasts encounter strong light, they will naturally look in the direction of the light source.
Moreover, those little eyes wouldn't move for a long time.
Because of the stimulation of strong light, it is difficult for them to notice the existence of other things when they are exposed. If they sneak around, they will usually see those rabbits standing up straight with their ears pricked up and very curious, or cats leaning on the ground with their waists and nervousness.
It's fatal.
The main things we catch are rabbits. Judging from the reflection of the pupils, the eyes of rabbits are red and the eyes of cats are yellow. As for other things, they are all small eyes that are not too big. Therefore, we must
It is not difficult to distinguish them from each other.
In this process, what I have to do is to hold the light source and point it at them, and then distinguish which one is the rabbit and which one is the cat. What the third grandfather has to do is to determine the target, quietly touch behind them and remove those
The fat hare was quickly knocked to death.
What I want to say is that when I was a child, I especially liked being with my third grandfather. This old man was not only agile, but also had many strange and weird methods. I fished with him, caught toads with him, filled rat holes with him, and talked with him.
Catching yellow skins... Anyway, as long as you don't practice Kung Fu, all you can encounter with him are endless fun and good things.
Every time after a heavy snowfall, I would go into the mountains with him, go out in the afternoon and come back the next morning. Generally speaking, I could catch a few pheasants and hares during this trip.
At that time, the use of air guns was no longer allowed. Otherwise, with his good marksmanship, he would not be able to carry back the prey he got in one day and carry it on his shoulders.
But this time something unexpected happened.
As we walked all the way, watching the sky getting dark, we only caught one hare. Moreover, the hare was not that big, and we could wrap it up with just two hands.
At that time, the place we visited most often was a hillside not far from the village. It was said to be a mountain, but it was not really a mountain. Judging from the topography and geology, the place was at most a hilly area, with one slope connected to another.
, there are ditches, ridges and fields, which is where the most pheasants and rabbits are.
On the top of this hillside is a cemetery. The cemeteries in rural areas are not very regular, and many of them are buried casually.
There are dozens of scattered buildings on this mountain. Of course, the number of these dozens is still a conservative estimate.
The tombs are all different and vary in age. Some are on the top of the mountain, some can be found on the edge of the fields, and some are ownerless and don’t even have tombstones. Before cremation was implemented, there were even many old-fashioned coffins buried here.
Of course, there is no priceless material like golden nanmu wood here, and there are no decent burial objects, but there are still a lot of ordinary solid wood coffins. Every now and then, there are old people who go to other people's graves to clear up wasteland.
Some rotten coffin skins were dug out from the small earth bags, and some people could even get burial objects.
It is usually very unlucky to encounter something like this, but it was not particularly easy to avoid it in those days.
When I was young, children my age would not dare to go up the mountain alone because the mountain was haunted.
