It is five inches long and three inches wide. Not heavy, wet. When I opened it, a circle of green shadows flashed into my eyes. Look carefully, it is a soft green hair, like velvet. Suddenly, the fox saw a round head sticking out of the green hair, two small eyes like mung beans, looking at me timidly, and the whole head quickly shrank into the hard shell like lightning.
Well, this is a rare green turtle among turtles. The green turtle is a treasure of China. It is also called the four rare turtles with white jade turtle, double-headed turtle and snake turtle. During the Han and Tang Dynasties, turtles prevailed. Many documents have detailed records of green turtles, such as "Too expensive was born in the shade" and "Turtles were born in a thousand years, which are hard to get". The green turtle in Tang Dynasty is listed as one of the five treasures in the palace, and it is a precious aquatic animal.
I fell in love with this lovely green turtle at first sight. This green turtle flew to our home from Wuxi and has been our pet ever since.
I decorated a beautiful home with a big glass jar. When it travels comfortably, it is green, with long hair like jade, like hair blown by breeze, floating gently in clear and bright water, with indescribable elegance.
The daughter named it "Treasure Turtle". Ordinary turtles are vegetarians, but green turtles eat meat. It eats fish and shrimp. The quantity of food is not much, but the food is good. Throw the fish and shrimp meat into the jar, put it in your mouth first, then hold it in your hands, bite, chew and swallow it with relish, as if you were tasting a rare delicacy in a thousand years.
He likes to watch him eat, so his family regards feeding him as the best pastime in life. Every night, the family gathers around the glass bottle, eating, watching and laughing. The greatest charm of the green turtle lies in its spirituality.
I was shy when I first came to my house. Maybe I was homesick. It always shrinks its head into a hard shell. It is dull, quiet and silent. It is underwater, like a lifeless hairball. At that time, I felt embarrassed when I looked at it and wanted to let it go. However, its hometown and hometown are thousands of miles apart. I have too many hearts.
Slowly, it opened up and adapted, and its original lively nature was gradually exposed.
It knows its own beauty, and often swims confidently and almost ostentatiously in the water, dyeing the whole pot of water with dark green hair.
My 8-year-old daughter likes it as much as jewelry. Don't forget to say goodbye to him at school; Come back from school in the afternoon and say hello to him again; When something happens, I always stand by and watch the glass bottle and shout affectionately, "treasure turtle, treasure turtle!" "
Strangely, if you shout too much, it will "react"-not with words, but with actions. As soon as her daughter called "Treasure Turtle", she floated up and put her head out of the water to have a look. At first, we thought it was a coincidence, and then the next time we learned that the tortoise was really spiritual.
Even better: it has the same strong reaction to music. Her daughter put her portable radio next to the glass jar and played the Christmas song Silent Night for her. Several times later, music came from the radio. She put her head out of the water and wiped her mouth gently, as if laughing. Two round eyes also emit soft light.
I have never had a pet, nor have I loved or disapproved of keeping a pet, but I am fascinated by this little green turtle. When they are free, mother and daughter get together, watch turtles play and feed them smiling turtles. As for what kind of inner world the tortoise has, we don't know-we never know and never thought we should know.
Soon after, a distant relative went to Malaysia. My cousin has two daughters, one is seven and the other is eight. Daughter and acquaintance are the same age. Suddenly, these three people became "like-minded friends". Adults are chatting in the lobby, and children are watching turtles in the backyard.
Watching turtles in water is not addictive. Children don't know the depth of the sky and the earth. They put their hands into the jar, took out the green turtles and played on the ground.
They weave green hairs on the hard shell of green turtles, tie them into strange shapes with rubber bands, and then laugh; They tied wool on the front foot of the green turtle, dragged it hard, and laughed loudly when they saw its clumsy appearance; They made gloves and shoes out of red plastic mud and put them on the hands and feet of the green turtle, making it weak and sleepy.
I sat in the hall and heard laughter from time to time. I'm glad that the three of them live in harmony. I don't know how ignorant they are to base their happiness on the pain of the green turtle! After the guests left, I packed up the messy cups and plates in the hall and went into the backyard. At first glance, the whole person suddenly looks like an electric shock.
The green turtle lay dying on the ground. Originally smooth and beautiful green hair, tied with rubber bands; Hands and feet are trapped by gloves and shoes made of red plastic mud, standing stiffly, hands tied with wool, like a prisoner convicted of a felony. It is motionless, like a mummy blown dry by air.
"Treasure turtle, treasure turtle!" I screamed, rushed to pick it up, and its head shrank into the shell without looking at me. At that moment, an ominous thought flashed through my mind Scholars would rather die than surrender. The humiliated green turtle lost his life that day.
It lay in a shiny glass jar, melancholy and lifeless.
Fish and shrimp were thrown into the fish tank, intact. Make a phone call. You won't be blind. My daughter knows what's wrong and wants to change. She begged me to take the turtle to the doctor and cried, but I knew that "heart disease still needs medicine." Treasure turtle needs psychotherapy. A few days later, the green turtle floated obliquely in the water, motionless and out of breath.
Take it out and it will be flat. Watching turtles in water is not addictive. Children don't know the depth of the sky and the earth. They put their hands into the jar, took out the green turtles and played on the ground. They braided the green hair on the hard shell of the green turtle and tied it with a rubber band in St. Louis.
