[Fairy Tale] A fish going upstream (everyone has a yearning sea in his heart)

The forest is separated from the city by a high mountain.

There is a winding stream on both sides of the high mountain.

One side leads to the depths of the forest, and the other side leads to the city entrance.

There is a fish in this forest stream.

He looks like a leaf, and his scales always glow green.

So, everyone called him Ye Yu.

Leaf fish are curious about everything around them.

Wonder why the stones under the stream are so slippery and round?

Why do crabs and shrimps have two powerful pliers?

Why does the tortoise have such a thick shell?

Why don't fish have long feet?

These questions have not been answered, and there will always be a bunch of new questions.

Everyone is afraid of his asking questions because they don't know how to answer him.

Besides asking questions, he likes listening to stories.

Listen to some big fish telling about the outside world.

"The sea is endless, and there are many underwater creatures. There are huge whales, wonderful corals, octopus with many claws, and all kinds of strange fish. This is a magical masterpiece of nature, very wonderful. "

Leaf fish like to listen to the story of the sea, full of infinite yearning.

Gradually, he felt more and more bored staying in this stream. He wants to see the sea and make friends with those underwater creatures.

He told all his friends what he thought, but some important people told him.

"We all belong to freshwater fish, and we will all die in the sea."

Leaf fish had to put aside their illusions about the sea for a while.

But I began to feel depressed and stopped asking questions.

A good friend asked him, "Grandpa, why don't you ask questions?"

Ye Yu said, "Don't ask, you can't answer anyway."

After a while, the leaf fish became ill and almost died.

When everyone thought he was dying, he miraculously recovered.

The first thing he said after his resurrection was.

"I'm going to the sea!"

His persistence made some big fish unable to bear to refuse again.

However, if you want to go to the seaside, you must first cross the mountains to the stream at the other end of the city.

The leaffish came to the steep stream, and the river kept flowing down.

He even went upstream for a few seconds, and then he was washed back into the steady stream of water.

He began to practice wagging his tail and spreading his fins.

As long as he can swim to the top of the mountain smoothly, he can reach the other end with the help of the current.

But so far, no fish can do this.

Friends also think he can't do it at all.

But leaffish don't think so.

He practiced from summer to winter.

Almost all scales have fallen off several layers.

One day in winter, the stream froze.

Including this section of the rapids coming down from the mountain.

Leaf fish think their chance has come.

But in winter, most fish will sink to the bottom of the stream to hibernate and reduce their activities.

Avoid freezing to death.

But leaffish won't give up such a good opportunity.

Without the rushing water, he can finally go upstream smoothly.

But the temperature under the ice was extremely low, and he was shivering with cold.

Slowly, he finally reached the stream at the top of the mountain.

He went downstream to the stream at the other end of the city.

After he passed, he immediately sank to the bottom of the stream and lay dormant.

Otherwise, he will freeze to death.

Winter goes and spring comes.

Leaf fish resurfaced, looked back at the top of the mountain with excitement and said goodbye to friends on the other side.

He swam all the way to the mouth of the town, only to find that there was no sea at the end of the stream.

He felt desperate and depressed.

But one day, he found a delicious piece that he had never eaten before.

I took a bite at once and found something hooked on his throat.

Then, he was lifted up by a force.

"Haha, I took the bait."

A little boy cheered on the shore.

"Hello, special forces! The scales are green. "

The little boy looked at the leaffish in the fish tank.

"Can you let me go? I'm going to the seaside. "

The leaffish trapped in the water tank was terrified in front of the monster.

"Ocean, are you kidding ..." The little boy scoffed.

"Please." Leaf fish wagged its tail.

The little boy thought it over carefully and said, "But you are a freshwater fish. You can't live in the sea."

"Why?" Leaf fish blinked and asked.

The little boy said, "Because the sea is salty, you can't adapt to different environments."

Ye Yu said, "In that case, let's make a bet." You turn the water in this place into sea water. If I didn't die, would you let me go to the sea? "

The little boy thought about it and agreed.

The next day, the water tank was replaced by seawater.

Leaf fish can't adapt. The water made him uncomfortable and even difficult to breathe.

On the third day, his whole body strength was gone, and even swimming was very difficult.

On the fifth day, his scales were almost peeled off.

The little boy knocked on the water tank and asked him anxiously, "Don't try to be brave, I'll change the water for you, or you'll really die."

Leaf fish stubbornly refused.

On the tenth day, the leaf fish wagged its tail and began to eat the omnivorous food thrown in by the little boy.

The little boy stared at the water tank and said happily, "You did it!" " "

Ye Yu nodded and said, "Well, I did it."

As agreed, the little boy took the leaffish to the seaside.

"Go ahead. The sea is your home. "

"Thank you!"

The leaffish swam at the seaside for a while, and he completely adapted. He was both excited and excited, and jumped on the sea several times.

The little boy turned his head and left.

Ye Yu asked him, "Where are you going?"

The little boy turned around and shouted with a smile, "I'm going to find my own sea!" " "
