Chapter 9 Differences
Liu Junhao still did not answer, but slowly pulled the fishing line. The fire head seemed to realize that it was not far from death. He began to make a final struggle in the water, thumping, and excitedly splashing more than three feet high, but it was obviously at the end of his strength and could no longer make any tricks.
In the envious eyes of the people of Liujiagou, the firehead was finally pulled up by Liu Junhao, while the children were excited and shouted and danced.
At this time, Liu Junhao found that almost all the idle people in the village were surrounded by him, and there were 200 or 300 people watching him catch fire. This scared him and found that someone had already prepared a large scale and a leather tape measure, pressed the fire to the ground and measured one meter three meters, and then put it in a long insect leather bag and weighed it thirty-one pounds.
This data made people exclaim again and talked about it again.
"It's really a blessing to have a dog's life. This thing is enough to eat for a few days, but unfortunately I can't put it in summer..."
"It's a pity to eat it. Of course I got it sold in the town. I guess it can be sold at least 100 yuan. If I encounter a suitable first 15, someone will ask for it..."
"Xiaohao, I'll pay one hundred and five, you sell it to me, I'll be generous for a while..."
"I won't sell it, I won't sell it, I won't sell it for much, I'm going to raise it..." Liu Junhao suddenly had his own plans, and he was really going to raise this hothead. After all, this thing is hard to come by.
"What, goddamn, where do you raise such a big guy? I said Xiaohao, fish eat fresh shrimps and jump, this fire head is still valuable when it is alive. In such hot weather, it will smell less than half a day after death. That's not worth a penny?" Village Party Secretary Liu Guangju dissuaded, "It's better to sell it to me for 200 yuan, how about it?"
Seeing that Liu Junhao didn't say anything, he added: "I'll give you another thirty, okay?"
The 230 yuan made the people surrounding the fire gasp, which was basically worth a month's salary for rural construction workers. Although Qingshan Town is very poor, the county town is extremely prosperous after leaving the mountains. Many villagers in Qingshan Town work in the county town with construction teams during slack farming. They work hard every day, which is only ten yuan, and three yuan of food is deducted every day. In other words, one construction worker will not add additional expenses per month, which means that 270 yuan can be lost.
Seeing Liu Guang gathering for more than 200 yuan, some people began to curse in their hearts, "Your uncle, you are the one who sells your wife, you will know how to eat it, you will die."
Liu Guangju has been serving as the branch secretary in the village for some years, but his reputation is very bad. He is like a green-headed fly in the village, not biting people but is disgusting.
There is a passage in "Li Youcai's Banqu": Liu Guangju, fake big head:
Be the head of a character,
Receive thick legs, take advantage of the momentum,
I wish you acknowledge the old man Heng Yuanqian.
Big and big things, grab the lead,
He tilted his head when he spoke.
From the west end to the east end,
I can't let go of Guangju's head.
This description is very similar to Liu Guangju. After the village child learned the text, he deliberately read it loudly at his doorstep. Liu Junhao had also done this before.
Every time Liu Guangju hears someone reading this passage, he curses him, and even scolds his father for not being able to name a name, but he just gives such a name.
As for the person who said he sold his wife, he said that he had given his wife to the town leader and was always the village director. This incident was also spread by rumors. No one knew whether it was true or false. He was just talking about it behind the scenes. However, there were often cases where the town cadres came to check and stayed overnight at Liu Guang's house after getting drunk.
"If you say you don't sell it, you won't sell it, and you won't sell it if you give it a thousand yuan." In the envious eyes of a group of people, Liu Junhao tied the long insect skin bag tightly, then carried the fire head on his shoulder, and then walked back with a small bucket and a fishing rod in his spare hand.
Liu Guangju looked at his back and stamped his feet: "This unlucky child is just careless, why can't he get paid?" He said and chased after him, "Will you do it for three hundred yuan, Xiao Hao?"
"I said I won't sell it, I'll keep it for fun." Liu Junhao's words floated over.
"Damn it, this slut is a fool," Liu Guangju spat, and he was reluctant to pay 300 yuan to buy a fire-tout. He wanted to give gifts. He was about to transfer it to the town these days, but he didn't know what to send. It happened that two days ago that he heard that a leader in the county was going to Qingshan Town to inspect the work, so he wanted to buy the fire-tout to Mayor Qi to please him, and maybe the matter of transferring it to the town was done. However, he didn't expect that Liu Junhao would not buy his account at all, which made him so angry that he cursed.
However, he did not dare to force Liu Junhao. This guy blocked the door of the village chief's house with a kitchen knife and cursed for a long time, but no one advised him to ignore it.
These days, he is so stupid that he is afraid of being arrogant, and he is so stupid that he is afraid of being desperate. He does not think that he has a big face and is afraid that he might embarrass himself in a strong way.
Liu Junhao didn't dare to delay. He was afraid of suffocating the fire. The fish could not live without water. He walked quickly along the way and quickly threw the fire into the small pond in his yard.
The pond is only two meters square, and it has long been dried up. It is covered with yellow artemisia and dog tail grass. It was used to store water and fire when the house was used as a warehouse. It was originally a small pond, but before Lao Liu died, he was so big. After Liu Junhao took over the house, he did not deliberately put it in, and he kept it like this.
Liu Junhao threw the fire into the pool. As soon as the fire broke free from the snakeskin bag, his body rolled on the ground. After a while, the layer of mucus that protected the water evaporated on its body was covered with dead branches and leaves, and its skin was dry by the scorching sun. At this moment, the fire could no longer see its original appearance, like a gray monster.
He quickly lifted the bucket and dug a large bucket of water. The cold well water poured on the firehead, and immediately it jumped alive again.
Liu Junhao shot five or six buckets of water in a row, and then half soaked the fire-headed body in the water. The mud and leaves on his body were washed away, revealing his original face. His cheeks opened and closed, looking exhausted.
Liu Junhao carried more than a dozen buckets of water, and was so tired that he was sweating profusely. Then he filled the pool. The figure of Huotou was also hidden in the clear water. However, Huotou obviously lost its ferociousness in this environment and stayed motionless in the water. Even the few crucian carp that he had just fallen swimming beside it, it was indifferent.
He felt a little embarrassed, and it seemed that he had taken it for granted. There were no big fish in the water, and such a small pond could not raise fire at all. Suddenly, he remembered his original intention again and hurriedly took out the black stone lock.
He looked at it carefully again. Although the sun was very vicious, the stone lock was still warm and exuded a comfortable coolness.
Liu Junhao threw the stone lock into the pool and observed the changes in the fire head.
At the beginning, the firehead had no reaction, but the crucian carp began to splash in the water. At this moment, the firehead suddenly waved its body and bit a crucian carp into its mouth. It swallowed it in a few seconds. Then it rushed to another crucian carp. Liu Junhao didn't blink. It was the first time he saw the firehead swallowing other fish, which was quite bloody.
Seeing its swimming more and more cheerful, the fish scales that were originally dry in the sun now emitted a dark jade-like color, Liu Junhao finally confirmed that this stone lock indeed had a strange effect.
He suddenly became excited, and he didn't expect that he actually picked up a treasure. Since this thing is effective for fish, it must be effective for humans.
He hurriedly poured a large bowl of cold water, put the stone lock in the bowl and stopped for more than ten minutes, and then hugged the big bowl and drank a clean light. The well water was as sweet as before, and it was no different, and he did not feel excited.
This is what happened? Liu Junhao was a little confused. Did it take too short? It shouldn't be. After putting it in the pool for a few minutes, the crucian carp had a reaction.
Liu Junhao poured a large bowl of cold water and then put the stone lock in the water. This time he waited for nearly forty minutes before drinking the cold water in the bowl.
He walked with two big bowls of cold water in his stomach and swayed as he walked. He felt as uncomfortable as a pregnant woman, but he still couldn't feel anything abnormal in his body.

I have had a cold with a fan these days. My limbs are weak and my body is numb. I can't recover after taking medicine. My brain is dizzy. Therefore, I only updated one chapter a day and returned to the update when the cold is cured.
