Chapter 573: Bait

Once or twice can be said to be a coincidence, but every time it is like this, the fisherman himself feels that there is something wrong.

"But are you sure these are all fish kings? Donggang Reservoir can support two big fish?" In Chen Ge's opinion, Donggang Reservoir can support one big fish.

"The water network of Jiujiang is complicated. The upper reaches of Donggang Reservoir are connected to the tributaries of several other big rivers. During the construction, some people found that there is an underground river under Donggang. There should be no shortage of food." The man hesitated: "Donggang A long time ago, it was a famous mass grave in the eastern suburbs. The poor people here had no money to bury them and would send the dead directly into the river. Therefore, this place not only has a lot of big fish, but also has a fierce personality and hurt people from time to time. "

"Eating people..."

"Things from a long time ago are much better now." The man picked up the fishing rod and closed the lid of the big red bucket next to him without any trace.

"What's in there?"

"The bait, the bait I prepared by myself, is the only thing that can make the big fish bite the hook." The man stood beside the bucket and took out his flashlight to shine on the water: "The fish king is very smart. I was so scared today. It is estimated that the hook will not be bitten in the next few weeks, which is a pity."

When the man was talking, Chen Ge was still staring at the bucket. The bait the man used was prepared by himself, not live bait, and it exuded a strange smell.

Closing the harness, the man put away his things and walked towards a small house next to the reservoir.

"What are you going to do?" Chen Ge followed. He felt that he could dig out more useful clues from the man.

"Did you see the light on the water? The luminous float was not dragged into the bottom by the fish king. I will go and take it back. That luminous float is also very expensive." Knocking on the iron door of the hut, after a while, after a while Looking at the very simple and honest man opened the door.

This person is the person standing behind the fishing man just now. He is not tall, only 1.6 meters tall. His skin is very tanned probably because he often works in the sun.

"It's time to call it a day? It's so early today, don't you usually fish until two or three o'clock in the morning?" The man's work card has his name written on it. This man is a staff member of the reservoir, and his name is Zhang Dapo.

The fisherman intentionally showed off, lowered his voice on purpose, and made a hand gesture: "You have no eyesight, just after you left, the fish king took the bait, if you don't believe me, ask the boy next to him, I almost caught the fish king. "

"The fish king has bitten the hook!" The man was very surprised.

"Caught it indeed,

I'm there. "Chen Ge also stood up to testify for the fisherman.

"The fish king has already bit the hook, why did you let him go?" Zhang Dapo looked at the fisherman: "What's wrong this time?"

"The fishing line was bitten off. I discussed with this little brother just now, and I think there may be more than one big fish in the reservoir."

"More than one? Then I have to report this situation to the leader." Zhang Dapo was even more surprised. He was usually responsible for taking care of the reservoir. Sometimes there was garbage floating on the reservoir, and he would drive his own boat to clean it up, so when he knew When there is a fish king in the reservoir, his first concern is his own safety.

The Donggang Reservoir is getting more and more desolate, and he can't even see a person at ordinary times. It is normal for him to feel scared when he guards alone.

"What about the report? It's impossible for them to drain the entire reservoir, unless there is clear evidence that the fish king has caused death, the higher-ups will take it seriously." The fisherman looked indifferent: "I don't want to talk to you Alright, lend me the boat, and I'll go get the float back."

"Wait until dawn to pick it up. You offended the fish king just now, go pick up the float now, it will definitely torment you." Looking at the dark water, Zhang Dapo felt that the fish king was hiding not far from them. place.

"Put on the lifejacket and hold the harpoon. The king fish is powerful underwater, but if it dares to show its head, we will just deal with it. I have fished it three times, but I haven't seen its true face yet, but I guess, the Jiujiang side There are only a few types of fish that can grow to such a large size."

"Are you sure you want to go?"

"Let me tell you, the longer the fish survives, the more it will cherish its life. It probably has already hidden in the bottom of the water." The fisherman took aim at the key on Zhang Dapo's waist: "The fish king is very smart, but he is also very smart." It's just a fish, not a water monster, we can't underestimate it, but we can't be too afraid of it, or what's the difference between us and those who worshiped the river god in ancient times?"

"I know you know the fish king very well, but don't forget the saying, those who drown are those who can swim." Zhang Dapo was timid.

"My luminous float is custom-made, and the price is not cheap. It is also coated with a paste to attract the king of fish. When I go again at dawn, it will probably disappear long ago. Besides, the fish float is now eight or nine meters away from the shore. Stretch out your hand It happened right away, and it won't take a few minutes."

"Go by yourself, I won't go with you." Zhang Dapo took off the key and handed it to the fisherman.

After getting the key, the fisherman faltered.

His tangled appearance made Chen Ge feel very strange. No matter how expensive a luminous float is, it should not be worth risking his life to get it. Does the fisherman really not care about the threat of the fish king? Or is there an ulterior secret on that special luminous float? He was worried that Ye Guangpiao would be picked up the next day?

It was already dark, and the situation became more and more dangerous the further we dragged on, the fisherman saw the luminous drift that was still drifting far away, and finally decided to take a risk to get it.

He went alone to the back of the house with the key, and took out the oars, the harpoon, and a large bundle of twine from the shed.

"This guy is really obsessed." Zhang Dapo said to himself, and he was going to dissuade him. After all, the fisherman really had an accident in the reservoir he was in charge of.

"Brother, I think you two have a good relationship..."

Chen Ge reached out and grabbed Zhang Dapo's shoulder, but before he finished speaking, Zhang Dapo retorted: "Who has a good relationship with him? This person has a very bad temper. If it wasn't for the fish king who only bit his hook, I would I'm just lazy to talk to him."

"Then why does the king fish only bite his hook? Is it because his bait is special?"

"I know what you want to ask. Many fishing enthusiasts have asked me what kind of bait he used. The point is that I don't know! This man is mysterious. He only comes fishing at night. Every time When hanging the bait, it is very well covered, and no one has figured it out until now, which is strange to say, but if the fish king doesn’t bite other people’s hooks, he will bite his hooks.”

"It seems that it is indeed a problem with the bait." Chen Ge and Zhang Dapo walked towards the fisherman together.

As soon as the man saw Chen Ge and Zhang Dapo approaching, he immediately picked up the bucket and hugged a lot of things on the ground: "What are you two doing here?"

"Or forget it, it's really dangerous for you to go there now."

Zhang Dapo wanted to persuade him, but the fisherman didn't listen at all. He tied the hemp rope to the bow of the boat, and then threw the bucket with bait and the harpoon into the administrator's boat.
