"It's not an arm?" Zhu Jinsheng rubbed his eyes, suppressed his fear, and looked again.
"Can your arms move?"
"Wait me a moment!"
Ye Tian hurried back to the wooden house, took out the wire and thin thread, and then took out the chicken intestines from the refrigerator.
"Brother Ye, it's moving. This arm is moving again."
"It will be ready soon!"
Ye Tian had already made the iron wire into a fishhook, then wrapped the chicken intestines around it and went straight to the ancient well.
"You want to fish?"
"This is not an arm, look carefully."
Ye Tian put the hook down and stared at the water. The water swirled again, and the white arm had taken the bait.
With a strong pull, the thin line straightened up.
Ye Tian was very experienced and did not move immediately, maintaining this balance. Gradually, the thin line began to shake, and it was obvious that something in the well water was trying to break free.
"Fish?" Zhu Jinsheng then realized that there should be fish in the river.
“Almost there!”
Ye Tian waited until the fish was exhausted. After nearly five minutes, the fish in the ancient well had no strength left.
Ye Tian raised his hand again and slowly pulled it out. As the "white arm" left the well water, Zhu Jinsheng finally saw it.
"Knife fish?"
"Why are there knife fish in the underground river?"
Ye Tian also looked at the knife fish in the bucket and compared it: "Or is it a sea knife fish?"
"What's going on?"
Ye Tian looked at the well water again, and there were sea knife fish in the well water.
"A knife fish from the sea? If it's from a river, it might be possible, but a knife fish from this well, isn't that ridiculous?"
"That's a bit ridiculous indeed. Do you think there's something wrong with this ancient well?"
Ye Tian touched the edge of the well, tapping his fingers lightly, thinking.
"Brother Ye, there are some knife fish in here." Zhu Jinsheng stretched his head to take a look again.
"Yes, just catch some and save them for making braised saury tomorrow."
"Okay, I'm going back."
"Brother Ye, are you leaving just like that?"
"Then why should I stay here? Accompanying you for night fishing is not my hobby. If you can't figure something out, don't think about it. Let the professionals take a look tomorrow."
Ye Tian yawned and looked at the bucket knife fish again. It was not a corpse at least.
"Brother Ye, am I fishing here by myself?"
"It's okay, Xiao Huihui will be with you."
Ye Tian blew a whistle, and Xiao Huihui crawled out of the cave. Then, smelling the fish, he rushed out directly.
“Ooooooooooo!”
Little Huihui started to get excited, wondering how there could be fish to eat here.
The next morning, when Sun Li was preparing dinner, she saw Ye Tian walking in with a bucket of knife fish.
"Mom, let's have knife fish for lunch."
"You kid, did you go to the morning market?"
"What morning market? Xiao Zhu fished there."
"Nonsense, this is a sea knife." Ye Liang came out from another room and looked at the knife fish.
"Dad, there's water in our old well. We got it from the well."
"Get lost, are you trying to fool me?" Ye Liang slept alone last night, and he was full of anger.
"No, wait until I send Xiaomi off, then you can go and see."
Ye Xiaomi also walked into the yard and looked at the knife fish in the bucket.
“Seafood, this is seafood, right?”
"Dad, do you have any lobsters?" Ye Xiaomi looked at Ye Tian expectantly.
"There's no lobster here. Hurry up and eat."
When Ye Tian sent Xiaomi to kindergarten and returned to the pear orchard, the orchard was surrounded by people.
"From the well?"
"Xiao Zhu, you are so amazing."
Tang Antian gave a thumbs-up, and the workers in the pear forest were all amazed. Ye Liang also looked around curiously. The well water gradually became clearer, and occasionally a little yellow sand would emerge.
Zhu Jinsheng sat on a stool, holding a fishing line, and yawned, "What's so great about me? This well water is powerful. It's a knife fish, damn, it's a sea knife."
"I'm so sleepy."
"Xiao Zhu, let me fish for a while." Ye Liang became more energetic. Older people all like fishing.
"Uncle Ye, you should have told me earlier. I caught over 30 kilograms of fish tonight. I was exhausted."
"Then you won't stop fishing?"
"Brother Ye asked me to fish for it." Zhu Jinsheng said honestly, with a look of grievance on his face.
"I let you fish, but I didn't ask you to fish all the time, okay?"
Ye Tian pushed the crowd away and looked at Zhu Jinsheng with amusement.
"Sister Mengpo is here!" A shout was heard from outside.
Upon hearing the news, Meng Po, the fish farming expert, rushed over from the fish pond.
"Meng Po, come here quickly and take a look at this knife fish. What's going on?"
Ye Tian waved to Meng Po. Meng Po put her hands behind her back and smiled playfully at Ye Tian, saying, "Even the dignified King of Hell has things he doesn't understand."
"Nonsense, I'm not a god."
"Come, let my sister answer your questions."
Meng Po came to the ancient well, looked at the knife fish in the bucket, and said confidently: "Knife fish are migratory fish. Every year they return from the sea to the rivers."
"That's easy to explain. The underground river water has risen. The wild river outside should be connected to the East China Sea. This knife fish must have swum over from the East China Sea, passed through the wild river, and entered the underground river."
“This is science!”
"Xiao Zhu, do you understand?"
"Backflow fish?" Zhu Jinsheng nodded.
Ye Tian also admired Meng Po a little. It seemed that he had to find a professional.
Just when Ye Tian was about to admire, Ye Liang screamed.
