Chapter 291 The trick of the grass raccoon

Just after lunch, Zhang's old sisters came over to ask her to go up the mountain to have a trip.

The crowd went up the mountain. As the masters, Liu Junhao and Zhang Qian naturally planned to accompany each other. However, Zhang's mother didn't let her go and said that they were just walking around nearby and there was no need to be so troublesome. Even so, the two of them still sent them to the foot of the mountain.

The accented mountain on the mountain is still blooming vigorously since the end of March, with no sign of withering. Looking up, you can see many tourists taking photos in the sea of ​​flowers. Liu Junhao turned a blind eye to this situation, so he naturally had no idea. He sprinkled the red rabbit on the grass and leaned against the bluestone to take a nap.

Zhang Qian was thinking about catching insects for the young birds of Xiaoyan, so when she went up the mountain, she did not pay attention to the surrounding scenery, but focused her attention on the grass. At this time, the "bandit-headed" locust had completely grown into adults. They were slightly alarmed in the grass, and they immediately exploded their wings and ran away. Although this thing is small, it has a strong bounce ability. It can fly out more than ten meters away with a flapping wings, which is extremely difficult to catch. Zhang Qian tried hard, but in the end, he didn't catch up with the one. Wukong saw that his master was embarrassed and ran into the grass to help. This guy caught two of them in less than five minutes of eye disease.

She was so tired that she was panting. She turned around and saw her husband lying in on a big rock. She immediately became depressed and ran to her and pushed hard, "Get up, get up."

"Why don't you catch it?" Liu Junhao saw the expression on his wife's face and knew that the harvest was very small.

"The grasshopper flies too fast, I can't catch it at all. You can help me catch it later." She said as she stuffed the can into her husband's hand.

"You don't believe what you did when you are doing useless work. Do you want to feed the young bird? Don't worry, the old swallows will definitely not let their children hungry." Liu Junhao responded, and continued to squint his eyes and pretend to sleep. He ran on the mountain for a while and felt depressed. Now he was lying on the big bluestone and was blown by the mountain wind. His bones were sore. He was too lazy to move.

"Then you get up too, I don't believe it. You can't even touch an 'old shoulder pole'." Zhang Qian made up her mind to let her husband be depressed with her.

"Comrade Zhang Qian, your behavior made me sound a classic saying on the Internet, "Iron rods can be ground into needles, and wooden rods can only be made into toothpicks. The materials are wrong, and it will be useless no matter how hard you work. You are doing the fishing thing in Yuanmu." Liu Junhao sat up helplessly.

"What does it mean?" She became even more confused. "You mean there is no 'old shoulder pole' on this mountain? It's impossible, the grass is very lush here."

"I'm dizzy. You have been in Liujiagou for almost two years. Haven't you noticed this? There are not many old shoulder poles on the mountain, but few. On the contrary, there are many bandit leaders." He had no choice but to tell the story in detail.

"It seems to be true. If you don't say that I haven't noticed it yet, I said there are so many roads after school, why can't I see you when I get to the mountain?"

"The reason is very simple. The food of the old shoulder pole focuses more on stutter grass and sweet wine grass. Other grasses are not suitable for their survival. And those two types of grass are only suitable for growing on the roadside... If you want to grab the old shoulder pole, do you understand the number of them on both sides of the river embankment?" He said with his arms around his wife's shoulder.

Although it is simple, few people in the countryside have noticed this situation. When Liu Junhao was a child, he raised birds and was quite familiar with the habitats of various grasshoppers. Take the "bandit-headed" locusts for example. The locust plagues that the old people often mentioned before were mentioned, that is, this guy. They really deserve this title and often catch any crops to eat. After a large area of ​​locusts, they basically remain in the ground, so they are quite harmful to crops. A single old shoulder pole is not very harmful. Although they have wings, they cannot fly at all.

"Then let's go to the riverside to catch grasshoppers?" After hearing his explanation, Zhang Qian immediately became interested again.

"Isn't waiting for our mother?" Liu Junhao was too lazy to move, so he could only make excuses to refuse.

"I'll just send a text message and say it. They're just wandering around the nearby mountains, it's okay." Zhang Qian was so determined that she pulled him down the mountain.

When I arrived on the river bank, things were indeed as Liu Junhao said. After walking a few steps, the old shoulder poles were all blown out in the stuttering grass. Most of them were larvae three or four centimeters long, and their horny and wings had not grown yet. They were completely jumping up? They couldn't get up. At this time, the old shoulder poles were the best to feed the birds, which were very tender and stuffed into the beak and could be swallowed directly.

They knew that there were many insects on the river bank, and even more so for those birds. Along the way, you could see magpies in groups of three or three, and grey hemp jumping in the grass.

Liu Junhao really had no interest in catching grasshoppers, so he simply squatted on the ground to study sweet wine grass. The leaves of this grass are very similar to stuttering grass. Several thin threads of hair-like appearance grow on the stem. He tugs hard with his hands to pull the stem out. Put the tender part at the bottom in his mouth and chew it, and a sweet taste spreads on the tip of his tongue.

This is sweet wine grass, which he often picked and ate when he was a child.

Seeing that the owner was eating with relish, the monkey squatted on the ground and pulled a few sticks into his mouth. After tasting "Squeak", this guy kept shaking his head and looking like this taste.

Its expression... has been with people for too long and is becoming more and more anthropomorphic!

"What are you stealing food behind? It's so delicious?" Zhang Qian was busy for a while and wanted to talk to her husband. As a result, she turned her head and found that they had already gone on strike and were squatting beside her eating.

"Come here to rest for a while." Liu Junhao patted the soft grass and asked his wife to sit down with him.

"Why are you eating grass like a red rabbit?" After seeing what he was chewing in his mouth, Zhang Qian became surprised again.

"Try it, it tastes very good." Liu Junhao reached out and grabbed it and handed it over.

"This is the first time I know this grass can be eaten." After Zhang Qian tasted it, she also felt it was very fresh. The taste was indeed a bit like a newly brewed sweet wine.

"All you pay attention is knowledge, you don't know a lot." Liu Junhao sighed. He found that he was more and more enjoying this confident attitude of "striking" his wife. Beating is a kiss, scolding is love. This may be a manifestation of love between the couple.

"You are so useless that you are so useless." Zhang Qian retorted.

There were many grasshoppers on the river bank. It took two monkeys a long time to catch most of the cans. The red rabbit had almost eaten it, so they were about to take it home. But they had just walked two steps, but they saw a fiery red figure appearing from the reeds next to them.

Caolizi...the two of them recognized it at a glance. When the guy saw someone walking not far away, he was stunned and then recognized them. He ran over with a cry. Immediately afterwards, the other one in the reed marsh heard the call and rushed out.

Two foxes yelled around them for a while, and then rushed into the ditch beside the reed marsh with their tails. This ditch is the one in front of Liu Junhao's gate. From here, the gate that crosses the embankment and flows into the river. Usually, the gate is opened and will only be closed when the flood rises.

Cao Lizi's movements were quite weird, sitting upside down at the edge of the ditch, as elegant as a gentleman.

"What are they doing?" Zhang Qian turned her head and asked her husband. She found that he looked curious.

Cao Lizi was not surprised to see the two approaching, but instead called him to say hello.

"Aren't you fishing?" Liu Junhao was stunned when he saw the two guys sticking their thick tails into the water and stirring them. He was so familiar with this action, wasn't it just the posture of the cat's fishing?

I used to think that fishing with my tail was a unique skill for a cat, but now it seems that this is not the case.

"Husband, look," Zhang Qian suddenly exclaimed and pointed at the tail that the grass raccoon stretched into the water.

"This... so many water mole shrimps?" Liu Junhao looked at the movement in the water in disbelief. He saw its tail squirming like a big broom. From time to time, water mole shrimps swam over from the pebbles and then attached to the tail of the grass raccoon.

Water mole shrimps are common in big rivers and look very similar to crayfish. They usually hide in cracks or pebbles. As long as you stomp your feet hard on the stones, two or three will immediately emerge. When this little thing escapes in the water, it uses its tail to run backwards. It has a very unique personality. It is also very slow and is easily caught.

Of course, this method is too slow. People usually get some chicken blood when catching water mole shrimps. In a short while, nearby water mole shrimps come to smell the smell. At this time, just use a net bag to catch it. Sometimes they can catch half a bucket at a time.

This thing is boiled in salt water in a pot, and it tastes extraordinary.

But what happened to this fox's tail? It has such great magic power? The two of them watched the water mole shrimp continue to increase, and their doubts accumulate more and more.

Finally... one of them suddenly raised his tail to the water surface, and the little guys were caught off guard and had no time to escape, and were all thrown on the shore.

Good guy... I caught more than one pound at a time, and the grass raccoon was indeed amazing.

The guy put his tongue in front of the water stain and carefully selected it. In just two minutes, all the water mole shrimps were in their stomachs.

"I thought our Doudou was smart enough, but who knew that Caolizi would not give in." On the way home, Zhang Qian was left with only emotion.

"Survival of the fittest, and the grass raccoon can survive until now. It is not normal to have two unique skills to prey." Liu Junhao understood, otherwise why do people often say that the fox fairy has become a spirit long ago?

When he entered the yard, Zhang Qian couldn't wait to start moving the ladder to feed the little swallows. Before the little guys even opened their eyes, they heard movements outside, and immediately had tender little mouths chirping. Liu Junhao had also looked up the ladder before. These little swallows were not fur yet, and were bare, like small meat eggs, without any beauty at all. I wonder why my wife liked them so much.

At this time, a swallow foraging happened to fly back. She was not surprised to see Zhang Qian feeding her there, but instead stopped by the nest and whispered to her.

When the monkey saw this situation, he became interested again and wanted to go up and help, but as soon as he reached the top of the ladder, the old swallow immediately pecked at it. Helplessly, Zhang Qian had to drive this guy down.

"What are Zhang Qian busy with... taking photos of the swallows again?" At this time, Professor Zhao's voice came from the yard. The old man often came and went around the yard, so he naturally knew that she was preparing to make popular science photos for students.

"No, I just caught a lot of grasshoppers from the river bank in the afternoon and brought them back to feed the swallows..." Zhang Qian shook the canned bottle and replied.

"Feed them grasshoppers, who did you hear?" Professor Zhao was stunned when he heard this.

"What's wrong? They eat so happily..." Zhang Qian didn't know what the old man meant. Every time they caught grasshoppers and fed the little swallows, they rushed to eat them.

"Swallows use insects as their food, but their food is more inclined to fly in the air, such as mosquitoes and flies, etc. As for the grasshoppers... they generally don't eat it. The birds don't know anything. If you force the grasshoppers into their mouths, they will naturally have to swallow it."

"No, I thought grasshoppers could feed any birds. What should I do? They won't have any trouble after eating them? When I caught grasshoppers, Liu Junhao didn't explain it to me." Zhang Qian became nervous immediately when she thought of her kindness to do something bad. She didn't want these little lives to die in her hands.

"Don't worry, it's okay. Swallows don't eat grasshoppers, but they are not good at catching food on the ground." Liu Junhao walked out of the house after hearing this. He just checked the words online. He had raised all kinds of birds before, but the little swallow was so tight that he had never been allowed to vote. Therefore, he really didn't know what to eat. He thought they were like sparrows and ate everything. Who knew that after checking the Internet, he found that he had a wrong cognition before.

Although the swallow bird is fast, its claws are too weak and cannot control the landing point well, so their predation is mostly completed in flying.

However, Mr. Zhao’s statement is completely wrong, as if someone has never eaten abalone, but it does not mean that he doesn’t like it.

"Where is your Wukong?" After a few casual conversation, Professor Zhao turned his head and asked.

"I was outside just now, why are you looking for it?"

"Little Nannan flew the kite and hung the kite on the branch, wanting the monkey to help pick it off."

"You wait...Wukong, Wukong..." Liu Junhao shouted a few times at the top of his throat, but he didn't hear the monkey screaming.

It's really strange. When did this guy slip out again? When he didn't look for it, it always ran to the front and was annoying, but now it's looking for it and it's gone again.

He couldn't find the monkey, so he had to take action himself.

After all, the kite was not high, so Liu Junhao took it off without much effort.

It was not until the evening when the monkey appeared in front of the person. After holding the rice bowl, it did not wander around the table as usual, but ran straight into its wooden house.

"What's wrong with Goku? You can't be so angry that you were scolded by me in the afternoon, right?" This guy used to have to make trouble for a long time after dinner, but now he has become so honest and abnormal.
