Adored Koi in the 70s
Chapter 8:
In winter, it gets dark quickly, and the sky is completely dark before six o'clock. After dinner, the villagers close their doors and go to bed early.
After Qiao Zhenjun was paralyzed, the old Qiao family took turns to send someone over to watch the night for him. It was Qiao Zhenguo who came over these few days.
With her uncle there, Da Qiao had nothing to worry about, and went to bed after wiping her body.
I don’t know how long I slept, but suddenly there was a thumping sound in the room——
"Boom! Boom! Boom!"
In such a quiet winter night, the voice was clear and abrupt.
Da Qiao was awakened.
She sat up from the bed, rubbed her eyes with her hands, her little face was flushed asleep, like a little waking cat, looking simple and cute.
She listened carefully, but the sound disappeared. After waiting for a while, the sound did not come again. Just when she thought she had misheard, the impact sounded again.
She heard clearly this time.
The sound came from a wooden basin in the corner, which contained a small koi whose milk had been exchanged for an egg.
She climbed down from the bed and walked to the tub, her voice softly said: "Little fish, then, then, it's late, you, why, not going to bed?"
The little Koi spit out a few bubbles and suddenly said, "Da Qiao, thank you for saving me! But I can't stay here for a long time. Can you send me home?"
Its voice is milky and milky, and it sounds like the voice of a five or six-year-old child, sweet and waxy.
Da Qiao was so surprised that his mouth opened into a circle, enough to stuff a bird's egg: "You, you, you can talk?"
The little Koi spit out a few more bubbles: "I am the eighteenth daughter of the Dragon King, and I can speak naturally. My brothers and sisters can still be transformed into a human form, but my age is not enough, so I can't be transformed into a human form. You If you haven’t answered me yet, can you take me home? If you don’t go back, I’ll be dead, woooo..."
Da Qiao couldn't understand why a fish could talk, but she understood what was behind the little Koi.
Seeing the little koi crying miserably, she quickly comforted it: "Don't you, don't cry, I will send you and send you home, but, where is your home, where is it?"
The little koi stopped crying immediately: "There is a waterfall in Xilin. You will take me to the waterfall."
Big Qiao's small face suddenly wrinkled.
The last time she went to Xilin to collect bird eggs, she almost died. After that, her father was sent to the hospital, so she subconsciously didn't like Xilin.
Little Koi saw that Da Qiao refused to agree, so he burst into tears again, and looked at her miserably with big eyes, making people feel weak.
Da Qiao has always been soft-hearted, how could he stand such a look.
So despite the entanglement, she nodded and agreed: "You, don't cry, I, I promise you, that's it."
"Great! Thank you, Da Qiao, I will repay you!" Little Koi happily spit out several bubbles, swimming happily in the tub.
When he woke up early the next morning, Da Qiao remembered what happened in the middle of the night, only when he had a dream, and did not think that when she came back after breakfast, Xiao Koi spoke again.
"Da Qiao, are you finished? When will you send me to the small waterfall in Xilin?"
Da Qiao was shocked again: "Yuan Yuan, come, no, no, dreaming!"
The little Koi made a motion similar to rolling his eyes: "Of course it's not a dream, you take me over, please, what a big Joe!"
Da Qiao thought it was better than Xiao Qiao and looked at people with foggy eyes, which made people totally unable to refuse.
She nodded her head: "Okay, I, take you, over."
The tub is too heavy, and it is easy to be noticeable when going out with a tub, so she found a small basket: "No, no water, can you, can you?"
The little koi said crisply, "Well, I have no problem, as long as it reaches the small waterfall within half an hour."
Da Qiao didn't know how far the waterfall was, but in order not to let the little Koi die, she told his dad and went out immediately.
All the strong laborers in the village were sent to the farmland infrastructure construction. The children were detained at home because the weather was too cold and could not go out, so Da Qiao did not meet anyone along the way.
She couldn't help but secretly relieved, she was afraid that she would meet Song Jinlai's wife again like the last time.
Xilin was still smoky, and he couldn't see his fingers. Da Qiao stood at the entrance of Xilin, his heart trembled.
Little Koi comforted: "Don't worry, I won't let you fall into the trap."
Da Qiao was easily persuaded by the look of her swearing, and it proved that Little Koi really didn't lie to her. The journey was unimpeded and no accident happened.
Following the guidance of the little koi, she came to the small waterfall smoothly.
The small waterfall was about less than ten meters high, and the water rushed down from above, and the water hit the rocks below, splashing splashes, and Da Qiao couldn't help but look at it.
Xilin is full of smoke all year round, and traps are set up inside. Villagers dare not enter easily, let alone go deep into the mountains, so no one knows that there is a waterfall inside.
This was also the first time Da Qiao saw the waterfall, but at this time she was staring at the fish in the water.
A lot of fish!
She couldn't help swallowing.
The last time she ate fish during the Chinese New Year, she still remembered that the fish was so tender that she almost ate her tongue, but she only ate two pieces because her mother said she was too young to eat too much.
Thinking of the smell of fish, her saliva flowed out.
Little Koi giggled as he watched Da Qiao constantly swallowing saliva: "Da Qiao, wipe your saliva, it's dripping on my body!"
Da Qiao subconsciously wiped the corners of his mouth, only to realize that he was being teased, and his face flushed red immediately: "Bad, fish!"
Little Koi fluttered in her hand and said, "Da Qiao, quickly put me in the water!"
Although the time to get along was only a few days, Da Qiao was full of reluctance, but she still put it into the water according to the instructions of the little Koi: "Goodbye, now, Xiaoyuer."
The little koi swam freely in the cold stream, and then swam back to the stream: "Give me your hand."
Da Qiao cleverly stretched out his little hand.
The little koi spit out a piece of jade pendant from his mouth. At first, the jade pendant was only the size of a fingernail, but it became bigger and bigger when it was spit out, covering Da Qiao's entire palm.
The whole body of the jade pendant is snow-white, crystal clear, and the carvings are vivid, and the scales on it can be clearly seen. More importantly, its shape is exactly the same as that of a small koi.
"Good, good, beautiful!" Da Qiao stared at Yu Pei, his eyes sparkling.
Little Koi said: "Give it to you as a gift to save me."
Da Qiao was so embarrassed to accept such a precious gift, but Xiao Jinli turned around and walked away after speaking, and did not give her a chance to refuse.
I saw it go up against the water and swim up quickly towards the top of the waterfall.
It is not easy to swim against the water. What's more, it has to go upstream against gravity. The little koi has failed time and time again. It fell from mid-air many times and hit the bottom of the water. The fish's body was full of visible wounds. .
But the little Koi did not give up.
Da Qiao was too nervous, and his little hand clenched into a fist to cheer him up: "Little fish, come on, go!"
I don’t know how many times I tried, and I don’t know how many times I failed. In the end, Xiao Koi succeeded!
A shining halo appeared at the top of the waterfall, and the little koi jumped in, glowing with colorful light all over, and the wounds on his body disappeared immediately.
Little Koi flicked her tail at Longmen, and said happily: "Goodbye, Da Qiao!"
Da Qiao vigorously waved his tender little hand: "Goodbye, little fish."
The light flashed, and the little koi disappeared. Da Qiao was stunned for a while before looking down at the jade pendant in his hand.
This jade pendant is so beautiful, where should she hide it?
If someone saw her, how would she explain it?
At this moment, Yu Pei suddenly fell into her palm and disappeared!
Da Qiao held his breath in fright.
Where's the jade pendant?
Why is it missing in her palm?
She turned her palm to look over and over, and then lay down on the ground to look for it, yelling anxiously, Yu Pei came out, the next moment Yu Pei popped out of her palm.
Da Qiao was so stunned that he couldn't close his mouth again.
She didn't understand why Yu Pei would hide in her palm, but after Yu Pei had been "out of sight" several times, she faintly found the pattern and knew how to hide and appear.
She put the jade pendant away, and suddenly heard a crackling sound coming from the water. She looked back and just saw a dozen fish jump onto the grass automatically from the water!
The fish jumped onto the shore automatically, this was unheard of, unseen!
But today Da Qiao has seen too many weird things, so now he is "not surprising".
She walked over and counted them. There were fifteen in total, each weighing four or five catties, and they were very fat and tender!
She did not dare to stay in Xilin for too long by herself, and immediately proceeded to put the fish into the small back basket.
The small back basket was full, and there were two more that couldn't fit. She rubbed two straw ropes through the gills of the fish and carried them with her hands.
It stands to reason that even if the average fish weighs only four catties, fifteen fish add up to 60 catties, and a six-year-old girl can't carry it on her back.
But Da Qiao was born with supernatural powers like her milk, otherwise she would not have contracted most of the family's work since she was four years old.
However, no matter how strong she was, she would be too young after all, and her shoulders felt hot and painful due to the 70 kilograms of back basket. After resting several times in between, she barely walked out of Xilin.
Although the pain in the shoulder made her breathless, she felt happy in her heart.
She had already calculated the fifteen fish, except for five for grandma and grandpa, three for Aunt Hui, and all the rest for her dad.
Her father had been lying in bed for a month. Not only did her condition not get better, but it seemed to be more serious. She was very worried.
As for her mother?
Sorry, she didn't think of this person at all at this moment.
It was also lucky that she still didn't run into anyone on the way back, otherwise there were so many fish that she would not be able to tell.
After returning home, she ran to his dad's house, put the small back basket on the ground like a treasure, panting and saying, "Dad, fish!"
Qiao Zhenjun saw a basket full of fish and was shocked on the spot: "Where did you get so many fish? Did you get your milk?"
Da Qiao shook his small head: "No, milk, it's for..."
She wanted to tell her dad about the little koi, and that these fish all jumped out of the water by herself, but she didn't know why, every time she spoke, there was resistance to prevent her from telling the truth.
She tried several times, her face turned red, and she still couldn't speak.
