The Local Lazy Man System

Chapter 735 Catching Crabs

"What a lot of big crabs!"

Pan Chengchen said in surprise. There are many big and small crabs crawling on the mud on the shore, and many big crabs are the size of a bowl to eat.

Such large crabs are rarely seen in the market, but here, there are actually many large crabs crawling on the soil on the shore.

"I didn't expect these crabs to grow so big."

Ye Rongyao said in surprise. Ever since he put the crab fry in the pond, Ye Rongyao didn't care about them or caught them. He didn't expect them to hide here and grow so big.

"Uncle, let's catch crabs." Xiao Mengmeng looked at Ye Rongrong and said.

"Okay, Xiaosier, bring the bucket from the boat. Let's catch the crabs today and have a full crab feast tonight." Ye Rongyao said to Xiaosier.

Ye Rongyao's family is basically all river crabs. When Ye Rongyao was young, he could often see river crabs. At that time, every time the river was released, Ye Rongyao would go into the river to catch crabs.

The method of touching crabs is actually very simple. It is to go down the river and move forward with both hands under the water. Although this method is not very efficient, it basically depends on luck. In the afternoon, you can also catch more than a dozen big crabs the size of a fist.

When Ye Rongrong was a child, crabs were very expensive things, and the family was reluctant to buy them, that is, they could only see them during the festivals.

So every time the river in the village releases water, the children like Ye Rongrong are the happiest, and they are the best at catching fish and crabs in the river.

Catch crabs and go home, and ask your parents to give you a delicious crab. You can only have one crab in a meal, and the rest have to be saved for the next meal.

At that time, the weather was hot, and there were no refrigerators and freezers at home. How to keep the food fresh and prevent the food from going rancid and spoiled?

Ye Rongyao still remembers that the way to keep fresh at that time was to put it on the water in the water tank in the kitchen. The dishes were all served in stainless steel plates, placed in the water tank, they could float on the water, and they were covered with a gong frame. Cover the water tank.

In this way, on a hot day, the dishes will not go bad even if they are left overnight, not much worse than the refrigerator.

However, as people's living conditions are getting better and better, this way of storing dishes is becoming less and less common in the village.

People nowadays,

Basically, the dishes of the day are eaten on the same day, especially in summer, if there is no refrigerator at home, under normal circumstances, the dishes will not be left for the next day.

After all, this is not the time when I used to live in the mountains. It is very inconvenient to buy vegetables once. It is often only a week before the next time I buy vegetables in the mountains.

Nowadays, people basically go to the vegetable market to buy vegetables once a day. After all, almost every household now has a battery car. It takes only ten minutes to drive the battery car to the vegetable market in the town.

But now in the river of Taoyuan Village, there are basically no shadows of crabs, and even fish are rarely seen.

The reason for the pursuit is actually the pollution. When Ye Rongrong was in junior high school, someone in the village built a pond for washing cement bags, and a large number of cement bags outside were transported to the village for cleaning.

For just one month, the river in the village was full of dead fish, and there were large pieces of dead fish. Although the pond for washing cement bags only ran for half a month, the river in Taoyuan Village was full of dead fish. The creatures are basically dead, and even the most vigorous river snails are dead.

After five or six years, there was not a single fish in the river in Taoyuan Village. Although the village would release the water in the river once a week, it still had no effect.

More than ten years have passed, and it is only in the past few years that fish have appeared in the river in the village. As for crabs, no one in the village has found it yet.

It can be said that the pollution had a huge impact on Taoyuan Village. After that time, the village committee did not agree to run an unexpected factory into Taoyuan Village again.

After all, in the eyes of the villagers, just a pond for washing cement bags pollutes the river in Taoyuan Village.

Soon, Xiao Si'er brought a large bucket from the boat.

"Take off your shoes, let's go catch crabs."

Ye Rongyao found two branches on the shore, handed one to Xiao Si'er, took one by himself, took off his shoes, and walked to the soil on the shore.

"Uncle, these crabs have all gone into the hole." Xiao Mengmeng quickly said to Ye Rongrong.

It turned out that Ye Rongrong and the others walked to the shore, disturbing the crabs resting on the soil on the shore, but the crabs all ran away without a trace.

Part of it got into the mud hole on the shore, and part of it ran into the water. Anyway, I couldn't see a crab on the shore.

"It's all gone, what else are you going to catch?"

Pan Chengchen said depressedly. I stepped into the mud, and half of my calf was covered with mud. As a result, all the crabs ran away. What is this called?

"Hehe, Chenchen, this crab can't run away."

Xiao Si'er said to her future daughter-in-law with a smile.

Xiaosier knew that Pan Chengchen grew up in the town and had never caught crabs before, thinking that if these crabs ran away, they would not be able to catch them. In fact, that was not the case.

"Chenchen, there is a saying that if you can run a monk, but you can't run away from a temple, it is the most suitable for this crab. Look at how I caught the crab."

After Ye Rongyao finished speaking, Ye Rongyao found a cave on the bank of the river.

Ye Rongrong's family breeds river crabs, which like to live in caves, under rocks, and caves near the river bank are likely to be habitats for crabs.

Of course, Ye Rongrong wouldn't look for the ones under the stones. After all, the gaps under the stones were very small, and the ones hiding inside were basically small crabs, and only the older ones were in the caves.

"That's the hole."

Ye Guangyao looked at a flat cave near the river bank. There were some traces of crab feet crawling on it. Ye Yaoyao was sure that a crab had run into this cave just now.

Ye Rongrong used to catch crabs and lobsters by the river when he was a child. He knew the difference between a crab cave and a lobster cave. Because of the shape of the body, the mouth of the crab's cave was basically flat.

The lobster's cave is relatively round, mostly covered by aquatic plants, and closer to the water surface, because the lobster's survival is far less than that of the crab in the absence of water.

Another point is that crab burrows are drier than lobster burrows, so the difference between the two is relatively easy to tell.

Ye Rongrong looked at the direction of the cave, put the branch twenty centimeters behind the entrance of the cave, and inserted the thick branch.

Start digging the cave by hand.

Pan Chengchen and Xiao Mengmeng on the side stared at Ye Rongrong with puzzled expressions.

"Xiao Si, Brother Ye, what is he doing?"

"Brother Glory is catching crabs. The branches are inserted there to prevent the crabs from running back to the pond along the cave. Under normal circumstances, this crab cave leads to the water. Otherwise, it will be blocked. When digging this cave, the crab will run away." Xiao Si'er explained.

"Didn't the crabs run along the hole to the pond just now?" Pan Chengchen asked suspiciously.

"Crabs are more daring. Under normal circumstances, they feel that it is safe to run into the cave and will not enter the water." Xiao Si'er explained.

"Uncle, crab."

Xiao Mengmeng hurriedly shouted.

It turned out that Ye Rongyao had already dug to the position of the branch. A bowl-mouth-sized crab was waving its big claws, lying on the side, with prominent eyes, shrinking and shrinking. Blocked, he hurriedly crawled to the side, thinking of running away.

"Uncle, catch it quickly, the crab is going to run away."

Xiaomeng Mengmeng ran to the side of the crab, and hurriedly shouted to Ye Rongrong, for fear that the big crab would run away, so she wanted to go up and catch it, but looking at the two big claws of the crab, Xiaomeng didn't dare to touch it. .

"Don't worry, it can't run."

Ye Guangyao shot quickly, pinched the crab's back accurately, and threw it into the bucket.

To catch a crab, you must grab the back. Other positions are easy to be caught by the two big claws of the crab. You must know that once the crab catches you, sometimes it will come endlessly.

"Uncle is great."

Seeing the crabs go into the bucket, Xiao Mengmeng shouted excitedly.

"This crab is so big."

Pan Chengchen looked at the crab in the bucket that was spinning along the bucket and said.

This crab is about double the size of the river crab I saw in the market. It is really hard to see such a big crab.

"I'm going to catch crabs too, you stand here."

Xiao Si'er spoke to Pan Chengchen and Xiao Mengmeng, and joined the catching crabs.

...

"Ah... it hurts..."

The sudden cry startled Ye Rongrong and Xiao Si'er, who were catching crabs in full swing.

Looking back, I saw that the claws of a big crab were tightly biting Pan Chengchen's hand, causing Pan Chengchen to cry out in pain.

It turned out that Pan Chengchen drank Xiaomeng and dreamed that Ye Rongrong and Xiao Si'er were catching crabs. Once they caught them, they were also tempted, so they also found a branch and caught crabs in a similar way.

It's a pity that they forgot that this crab can bite, and it hurts a lot.

The inexperienced Pan Chengchen saw that a big crab was blocked by himself, so he reached out and grabbed it, but his finger was caught by the claws of the big crab.

Ye Rongrong and Xiao Si'er quickly came to Pan Chengchen's side. At this time, Pan Chengchen was crying in pain. After all, the crab pincers are very painful, especially for such a big crab, it can hold a person's finger Take out a piece of meat.

Pan Chengchen's cry made the crab more frightened, and the pliers that bit Pan Chengchen's fingers tightened, and basically it wouldn't loosen even if it died.

Ye Rongrong quickly broke the crab's claws, lest the other claws would catch Pan Chengchen's hand because the crab was still hanging on Pan Chengchen's hand.

After breaking the crab claws, Ye Rongyao opened the claws with his hand and threw the crab claws aside, looking at Pan Chengchen's bitten fingers, all bleeding.

"It hurts!"

Although the crab claws had been removed, Pan Chengchen still felt a burning pain in his fingers.
