fisherman legend

Chapter 9 Haiwang Temple

Looking at the daughter sitting in Zhuang Haiyang's arms, Zhuang Ling, who is a sister and mother, seemed somewhat speechless.But she knew somewhat that with her younger brother moving back to his hometown, there might not be too many opportunities to meet her daughter in the future.

In contrast, her husband Liu Haicheng, who also came back for lunch, didn't think there was anything wrong.Looking at the daughter in his brother-in-law's arms, he also knew that his brother-in-law loved his daughter very much, and the daughter also liked this uncle.

Zhuang Ling couldn't bear it, and finally said: "Tingting, eat by yourself, don't rely on uncle!"

"No! I like Uncle, so I want Uncle to feed me! This is the big lobster that Uncle caught for me!"

The little girl in Zhuang Haiyang's arms ignored her mother's warning, but proudly said a few words.In her opinion, her parents are very busy every day, and they don't have much time to play with her, and they still refuse to buy her favorite toys.

Only this uncle would buy her toys and delicious food every time he came to the house.Even if her mother is cruel to herself, she believes that her uncle will help.Although the little girl is not very old, she is also a ghost, a little clever.

Zhuang Haiyang, who heard the mother and daughter bickering, also smiled and said: "Sister, forget it! The lobster shell is so hard that the little girl can't chew it. There is still one in the refrigerator, don't keep it for too long, and steam it together for the girl." Eat. This girl loves to eat!"

"Of course she loves to eat it! This lobster costs hundreds of dollars! Just spoil her!"

Facing the complaints from his elder sister, Zhuang Haiyang also continued to smile and said: "This is my unique niece, if I don't spoil her, who will spoil her? Tingting, when you come to your uncle's house after the holiday, uncle will make good for you every day." food!"

"Yeah! I still have to pick up shells and make something that makes a tinkling sound!"

Taking advantage of the meal, brother-in-law Liu Haicheng also smiled and said, "You really decided to move back to your hometown?"

"Of course! In fact, I think it's cleaner and more free to move back to my hometown. This time I went back, I went to the surrounding islands to look around, and there are still a lot of good things. The lobsters and crabs, the nearby reef pits are really nests Quite a lot.

When I went out today, I went to the nearby island to fish a few rods and earned more than 5000.This income is easier than working in other places before.Compared with the vicinity of the town, the fishery resources on Nanshan Island are indeed much more than those near the sea. "

Hearing this, Zhuang Ling was still dissatisfied and said, "Then you really plan to stay on the island for the rest of your life? Are you going to have a family in the future? Is there a girl who is willing to stay with you on the island for the rest of her life? "

"No, then I'll be single! Anyway, I'm not too old, so take your time looking for it! Sister, you should avoid talking about blind dates. If you really dare to arrange a blind date for me, believe it or not, I'll fuck you Won't you come back on the island?"

Zhuang Ling did not object to Zhuang Haiyang quitting his job and returning to his hometown.But she still hopes that this only younger brother can get married and start a family soon.The eldest sister is like a mother, and her parents are away. She feels that she has the responsibility to take good care of her younger brother.

What made her helpless was that this younger brother had a very stubborn temper.Even the bank where she works has many single girls with good conditions, but Zhuang Haiyang has no interest at all.As soon as the blind date was mentioned, Zhuang Haiyang ran away in a blink of an eye and couldn't even find anyone.

Knowing that his wife is very concerned about his brother-in-law's lifelong affairs, Liu Haicheng still smiled and said: "A Ling, don't worry too much about this, let Haiyang find out for himself first. He's not bad looking, so don't worry about not being able to find a girlfriend. .”

After dinner, Zhuang Haiyang coaxed the reluctant little girl, and then left the old sister's house on a motorcycle.When he came to the decoration shop in the town, Zhuang Haiyang found a shop that the boss knew and ordered some doors and windows of good size.

After paying the deposit, Zhuang Haiyang returned to Yuxianlou, returned the motorcycle keys to Chen Zhong, and then walked back to the fishing boat pier.Put away the bought things, and sail back to Nanshan Island again. It is still early to return to the island.

If he came back too late, Zhuang Haiyang was also worried that the sea would be too stormy.Compared with the wind and waves in the offshore, the wind and waves in the open sea are undoubtedly greater.Come back early, and avoid things like sudden changes in the weather on the way back.

Compared with other medium-sized and large-scale fishing boats, the fishing boat driven by Zhuang Haiyang is undoubtedly lower in wind and wave resistance.Even if Zhuang Haiyang believed in his water quality, Zhuang Haiyang would still feel heartbroken when the boat capsized.

After returning to the old house and putting away the things he bought, Zhuang Haiyang took another bag of things and came to the hillside south of the village head.Looking at this small temple surrounded by shrubs and vines, Zhuang Haiyang also knew that no one came to burn incense in the small temple for many years.

Cleaning up the weeds at the entrance of the small temple, looking at the small temple covered with cobwebs, Zhuang Haiyang also sighed: "The village is deserted and the temple is also abandoned! If you believe it, there will be, if you don't believe it, there will be no. No matter whether there is a Neptune in the world, in the future we will Let's be neighbors!"

In the past, Zhuang Haiyang might not have believed in these things, but after experiencing the adventure, Zhuang Haiyang felt that there might really be a sea king or a dragon king in this world.Now that we have moved back to live, it is also necessary for the small temple to be enshrined with some incense.

Clean up the weeds and shrubs in front of the temple gate, light a string of firecrackers, and throw them directly into the small temple.The sound of crackling firecrackers sounded, and the small temple filled with gunpowder smoke also had a bit of sacred and mysterious atmosphere.

After lighting the incense candles he bought and placing them in front of the altar, Zhuang Haiyang also bowed respectfully to the statue of Neptune wearing a dragon crown enshrined on the altar. Take those who are shipwrecked and cannot return home.

If Dragon Palace really exists, please take good care of my parents.As far as I am concerned, when I go back to my hometown this time, I also hope that one day I can find the bones of the two elders.I know it's hard, so I'm asking you to take care of me once or twice! "

Thinking back to his parents who unfortunately encountered shipwreck when they went to sea a few years ago, Zhuang Haiyang never forgot in his heart.Situations like this are actually very common in fishing villages.On the back hill of the village, there are many tombs of the victims.

But for Zhuang Haiyang at this moment, he didn't dare to hope to find the bones of his parents who might have been buried in the sea.But at this moment, Zhuang Haiyang felt that as long as he practiced hard, he might be able to find the bones of his parents one day.

For him and his sister Zhuang Ling, many times they feel that their parents have gone to sea, but they just disappeared and have not yet returned.But whether the parents are dead or alive in the end, in fact, no one knows.And Zhuang Haiyang came back this time, hoping to unravel this mystery.

Zhuang Haiyang, who also visited Haiwang Temple with his parents when he was young, offered incense and licked his head as usual.From now on, as long as he is on the island, he will offer incense every now and then to seek peace of mind and pray for his parents to be safe or rest in peace.

Zhuang Haiyang and Zhuang Ling rarely mentioned about their parents.It can be a fisherman's child. Situations like this are very common in Nanzhou Island.Among the fishing villages living on the island, at least nine of the ten villages had such incidents.

This is why it is said that every time fishermen go to sea is an adventure.Being on the sea, no one can predict what will happen.In addition to the unpredictable wind and waves, entering the high seas may also encounter unknown risks.

Standing in front of the Neptune Temple, looking at the seemingly calm but unpredictable sea below, Zhuang Haiyang also had the ambition to conquer it for the first time.He didn't dare to have such ambitions before, but now Zhuang Haiyang feels that as long as he works hard, there may be hope.

"Live well, practice well! Ding Haizhu, even if it is a congenital flaw, it is also a treasure sea pearl! I don't expect to cultivate to the kind of immortal who has the ability to overwhelm the river and the sea, and I will be satisfied if I can do it like a fish in water! "

Zhuang Haiyang secretly sighed, thinking of the mysterious sea pearl stored in the sea of ​​consciousness in his mind, he was also full of expectations for the future.If there is such an adventure and he can't do something, it seems that he is too incompetent!
