Chapter 522 A True Story
The red-crowned crane (red-crowned crane), because it represents the cultural images of elegance, auspiciousness, loyalty, and longevity, has always been loved by the Chinese people and has become one of the most revered animals in China.
At the same time, as a rare bird in the world, cranes are extremely sensitive to environmental changes in wetlands, and are known as the "God of Wetlands".
Over the years, due to factors such as continuous reclamation of Dahuangli farms, human disturbance, and reduction of habitat area, the number has been declining and it has become an endangered species.
During Lu Lu's years as an educated youth on Yanwo Island, he saw not many cranes. The most he saw was a group of a dozen or so cranes.
The crane is beautiful, but Lu Lu really can't bear to think about it.
But Chen Xiuqing was sent to him.
Facing Lu Lu's question, Chen Xiuqing just scratched her head and smiled: "I just want to know what kind of bastard it is!"
"Then you won't ask the person who is helping you!"
Just wanting to know, I took it back, leaving Lu Lu speechless.
As long as the cranes are as overwhelming as wild geese, he certainly doesn't think it's a big deal, but unfortunately, there are really too few of them.
In [-], a special protection area for red-crowned cranes was set up in Dong'an, Nenjiang, and the number was no more than a hundred.
As a person who lived a new life, when Lu Lu saw these four eggs, he couldn't help but think of the girl named Xu Xiujuan who died in [-] to protect the red-crowned crane, and thought of the song written for her—— — "A True Story."
"Walking through that small river, have you ever heard that there is a girl who has come here, walking through this reed slope, have you ever heard that there is a girl who left a song..."
Every time I hear this song, it is a shock to my soul.
But now, looking at the four eggs in hand, two of them have broken their shells, and the other two have not moved much. Lu Lu knew that if he put it down again, he might not survive tonight, and these eggs would be broken.
If you want to find the original nest again, I am afraid it will be difficult to find.
"In the future, if you encounter this kind of egg again, don't move, don't chase the geese around, just avoid it..." Lu Lu told Chen Xiuqing, then went to the fishing team's house with the egg in his hands, and asked Dong Chenggu to borrow it. He got off the quilt, stuffed a few eggs into the quilt, and lit a kang fire.
In his previous life, Lu Lu knew something about cranes because of the tragic song about that girl. He knew that it was difficult to incubate this stuff.A pair of cranes can lay at most two eggs during the breeding season, and some only lay one egg. With such rare eggs, the cranes themselves may not be able to hatch them, let alone hatch them artificially.
This is probably the reason why cranes can live for 60 to [-] years. It is difficult for offspring to reproduce!
Xu Xiujuan hatched three crane eggs using earthen methods, which was once a sensational news. It was the first successful hatching in the world.
Lu Lu didn't know until later that the incubation temperature had to be maintained at 38 degrees, and it had to be ventilated from time to time for a full 33 days before it could hatch successfully.
Dahuang is hot during the day and cool at night.
Lu Lu doesn't have a good way to deal with it now, so he can only use this method to protect him, and he doesn't know if he can hatch in the end.
This temperature problem can only be solved with the help of Kang Wen.
Chen Xiuqing was a little dazed, not understanding why Lu Lu cared so much about these eggs, and kept watching Lu Lu fiddling with them.
Unexpectedly, a large group of people ate and drank, and when Lu Lu went back to check, the little cranes in the two crane eggs with cracks on the egg shells had completely cracked the shells. They got out, still wet and huddled together, moving slightly.
This made Lu Lu a little happy.
I don't need to worry about it tonight. When they are more energetic tomorrow, they can let them search for food by themselves. Being with the big cranes means that they can play a protective role. When they encounter larger food, they will help to tear it up.
I don't know if the remaining two can hatch successfully.
Looking at the two cranes that hatched, Lu Lu couldn't help thinking that if they were brought back to the meadow to raise them, it would be a sight.
This is also one of the birds that humans can domesticate and raise.
Leaving aside this question, Lu Lu is more concerned about how to catch those pairs of wild geese.
At this time, it was already dark, and seeing a group of elders chatting lively, he took the opportunity to find Dong Chenggu who was still eating and drinking with other people.
"Brother Dong, you stay by the river and swamp every day, do you know of a better way to catch all the wild geese?"
The fishing team has the advantage of being close to the water, and they eat the most wild geese and fish. They have dealt with wild geese a lot, and they know much more than ordinary people.
Lu Lu was not ashamed to ask.
"The wild goose police think it's so easy to catch a group of guards. If you want to catch something alive, you probably just get closer, and then suddenly rush out, grabbing randomly, and maybe you can catch one or two...you Why are you asking this?"
Dong Chenggu, who was drunk with alcohol, was blushing purple. He usually spoke in a quiet and easy-going manner, but now under the influence of alcohol, his voice became rough.
In terms of drinking, he is purely the type who loves to drink.
"Of course it's captured and raised, mixed with some and taken back. It can protect the little geese and drive away those yellow geese and the like..." Lu Lu didn't hide it.
After Dong Chenggu listened, he shook his head and uttered a word reeking of alcohol: "Difficult!"
"It's not impossible. I cast a net once before, and I got more than 20 of them at once!" Someone interjected.
Lu Lu looked intently, he was a young man about the same age as Lu Lu, with an unfamiliar face, he should be recruited from the farm.
Hearing his words, Lu Lu couldn't help being overjoyed. Being able to catch more than 20 wild geese at once is quite impressive. He quickly asked, "Men, can you teach me?"
It's not that Lu Lu didn't think about setting up a net to catch them. It's just that although the wild geese move in groups, they are still a little scattered when foraging during the day. He wants to use this to net more. Not sure.
It is also very good to use the method of casting a net to catch fish.
When casting a net for fishing, if the net is cast well, the net thrown in the hand is round and can cover a large area at once.It is indeed possible to capture multiple geese at one time.
With this, Lu Lu immediately thought that night should be the most suitable time to do it.
At night, wild geese will bury their heads under their wings and gather together for the night. However, the wild geese who are in charge of sentry are also very vigilant. If they move a little, they will immediately fly away and are not easy to approach.
However, the man became hesitant at this moment.
Lu Lu thought for a while, he was not that familiar with people, and if he wanted to speak, he might have to find another way.
So, he smiled at the man and said, "What's your surname, sir?"
"My surname is Zhang, and my name is Zhang Yongbiao!" the man said after taking a sip of his wine slowly.
It was obvious that he lifted the shelf.
"Brother Zhang, take a step to speak!" After Lu Lu finished speaking, he stepped out of the room first.
After waiting for more than a minute, Zhang Yongbiao followed out with his shoes on.
"Brother, if there is a way, you have to teach me. It will be of great use to me." Lu Lu said, took out ten yuan and stuffed it into his hand.
Zhang Yongbiao looked down at the ten yuan in his hand, his expression changed immediately, he smiled and said to Lu Lu, "Actually, it's not a clever thing... When are you going to grab it, I'll help you!"
"The little geese caught tomorrow should be enough for a car. If you plan to pull a car back at night, your method should be carried out at night. The moonlight is good tonight. If you can, go for a run tonight." trip!"
Zhang Yongbiao didn't directly explain the method, and it would be nice to follow along, so Lu Lu immediately set the time.
Zhang Yongbiao looked at Lu Lu with some surprises. He didn't expect Lu Lu to immediately think that it was night when he mentioned casting a net. He looked up at the sky and nodded: "The moonlight is very good, let's do it tonight." Wait, I'm going to get the net! Call some more helpers."
"Okay!" Lu Lu nodded.
Zhang Yongbiao turned around and left to get things from the bungalow where he lived.
Lu Lv went back to the house to take a look. Dong Chenggu had already slumped on the kang, and the others were still eating and drinking. They drank a lot, so it was obviously not suitable for going out.
The state is relatively good, that is, Zhang Shaofeng and others.
I had a drink at Raymond's house last night. They all drank a little too much. Now that they have to deal with business, they have properly controlled the amount of alcohol. Besides, if they get drunk again tonight, it will hurt people .
"Brother Feng, Brother Meng, Brother Zhao..." Lu Lu shouted at several people outside the door.
Several people looked at Lu Lv, knowing that something was going on, they followed out one after another, including Zhao Yongke, Chen Xiuqing, Liang Kangbo and Meng Zhaohua, all came out.
"What's the matter?" Zhang Shaofeng asked.
"Follow me to catch wild geese later...how is your drinking?" Lu Lu asked a little worriedly.
Several people shook their heads, expressing that they did not drink too much.
Lu Lu nodded in satisfaction, and told a few people about his plan.
After knowing Lu Lu's intention, several people nodded one after another.
Not long after, Zhang Yongbiao took out the fishing net and said, "Bring on the tools for loading wild geese, let's go!"
As he spoke, he led the way and walked towards the bank of the Naoli River.
"Aren't we going into the swamp?" Lu Lu asked puzzled.
"You don't need to go into the swamp at night. Wild geese sleep at night, and they will choose to stay on land. They gather together in groups and walk along the river bank to meet them."
Zhang Yongbiao glanced at Lu Lu: "Besides, you have to be careful when entering the swamp during the day, and it's even more unsafe to row a boat into the swamp at night."
"That's true!" Lu Lu agreed with his statement very much. He turned his head and said to several people: "Bring the gauze frame, by the way, and bring two scissors! Also, bring the gun!"
Fishing teams often deal with fishing nets. It is common to mend fishing nets, and scissors are indispensable in fishing teams.
Several people immediately divided up the work, and quickly returned with guns, yarn frames and scissors. After carrying their guns on their backs, they followed Zhang Yongbiao.
Yuan Bao and the others didn't bring them into the swamp during the day, but stayed under the car all day long. After Lu Lu came back, they followed them all the time.Now when I see a few people walking along the river, I immediately follow them.
Bird's Nest Island is full of wild geese, but they are actually not friendly to the farm.
In the transition season of summer and autumn, wild geese can eat up dozens of acres of corn within a few days.
When Lu Lu was an educated youth, especially after learning how to hunt with Zhao Tuanqing, he often took part in guarding wild geese to prevent them from ruining crops.
At that time, the gongs were carried in hand, and the geese were not allowed to land.
In this area, it is true that wild geese do not necessarily have to enter the swamp.
In fact, along the banks of the Naoli River, there are still many places with water, and there are also many wild geese.
Sleeping at night, you can't float in the water, so you can often see it on the shore.
Just now Lu Lu was just thinking badly, always thinking that there are many wild geese in the swamp.
Now it is clear that these harmless places are more suitable for displaying.
Otherwise, entering the swamp, with such dense aquatic plants, it would be difficult to cast a net.
The group walked along the path along the river bank for a while, when Yuan Bao suddenly made a fierce noise towards the front, Lu Lu hurriedly grabbed Zhang Yongbiao, and whispered, "Wait a minute...there is movement ahead!"
