Chapter 18 Listening to Thunder in the Sunset Sea
When the fat man saw Liu Sang's secretly taking pictures, he immediately became angry and pointed at him and cursed: "Bring it, bring it!" Liu Sang protected his cell phone in his arms, and said coldly: "The person who was photographed didn't say anything, it's all your business." The fat man went over to snatch it. The second uncle looked at the fat man in a daze and cursed: "If you make trouble again, get out of the car!" The fat man retreated and whispered to my ear behind the car, "This guy must be your second uncle's illegitimate son." The second uncle looked at the fat man through the rearview mirror, and the fat man turned his face away.
Liu Sang secretly turned his head and looked at the Mercury Bottle again. Mercury Bottle looked out the window. The fat man grabbed Mercury Bottle's hoodie and put it on him, covering his face.
Liu Sang narrowed his eyes and looked at the fat man. The fat man took off his shoes and stepped on Liu Sang's back chair, making a gesture of going to your mother. Liu Sang sat back with a sneer. The atmosphere in the car was very awkward.
So I was speechless all the way, and the idiot kept taking pictures of secretly. I could bear it at first, but slowly, I couldn't bear it. He just slapped me and kicked the back of the front seat. Later, he became much more honest when he drove the car.
We drove to Pingtan County for almost 7 hours. The first stop was mainly because of a local folk legend. This legend is very interesting. Uncle Er thought it might be related to the South China Sea Kingdom.
Legend has it that Pingtan was called Haitan Island a long time ago, and it consisted of 126 small islands in total, with a very developed fishery. There is a mute on the island. He usually likes origami soldiers and paper men to be soldiers, so he is called the mute emperor.
The mute emperor's relatives were all killed by the emperor at that time, so he hated the emperor at that time very much, but there was no way. Once he went out to sea to fish, he almost died. While drifting in the sea, a strange man suddenly floated up from the sea and said that he was an immortal from Penglai. Seeing that the mute emperor was pitiful, the immortal gave him three pieces of paper and said that you cut a house on the first piece of paper, cut a granary on the second piece of paper, and cut some clothes on the third piece of paper. After cutting three pieces of paper, you can speak, and you can shelter from the wind and rain, and eat and keep warm. The immortal also reminded him not to be seen when doing magic, otherwise the magic will not work.
The mute emperor looked at three pieces of paper and gritted his teeth when he thought of his dead relatives. So the first piece of paper he cut a mountain to block the strong wind and waves on the sea and blocked the wind for the villagers. The second piece of paper he cut a big bow and a magic arrow, and many soldiers and horses, ready to deal with the emperor. But his hands were stupid, and the soldiers and horses could not cut the eyes of the soldiers and horses, so he used the sesame seeds in his sister-in-law's pot as his eyes. The third piece of paper he cut a mortar, a dustpan and a hammer, and prepared to work for his sister-in-law.
The next day before dawn, the mute emperor took a bow and led an arrow and shot it at the emperor's Jinluan Hall. As a result, the emperor was in a daze and had not yet entered court. The arrow was shot on the emperor's throne. After the emperor went to court, he was shocked to see the arrow, so he sent the prime minister to investigate. It was soon found that it was shot by the mute emperor. The emperor sent a large army to encircle and suppress it. The mute emperor threw out a paper army of thousands of troops. As a result, because his sister-in-law's sesame seeds were fried, all the soldiers and horses were blind and were defeated by the emperor's army.
The mute emperor had no choice but to ask his sister-in-law to close his eyes, throw the mortar, dustpan and hammer into the sea, and shouted loudly: "The mortar becomes a boat, the dustpan becomes a sail and hammer into the paddle." At once, the mortar, the dustpan and hammer become a boat, sail, oar. He took his sister-in-law on the boat and fled to the sea. He told his sister-in-law not to open his eyes, but the storm on the sea was too big, and his sister-in-law opened her eyes because of the wind and waves. The spell broke, and the mortar became pounded, and the dustpan and hammer were turned back into paper. The mute emperor and her sister-in-law disappeared into the big waves together.
We stood by the tidal flat by the sea. When the sun sets, the entire tidal flat is full of ripples of orange and gold. The sea surface is like gold foil, and there are countless fishing beams in the distance - two sticks in the shape of 7, which are used by fishermen to fish when the tide is high.
While eating instant noodles, we listened to Jin Wantang telling this legend vividly for several versions. The fat man asked awkwardly, "No, why are they all him and his sister-in-law? Where did his brother go?"
I said, "His brother must have been killed by the emperor. Can you think of some positive energy?" My second uncle especially doesn't like telling such jokes, so he quickly wins the fat man.
The fat man was puzzled and continued, "Are you sure his brother is not a seller of sesame cakes? You can ask carefully if the emperor's surname is Ximen."
I ignored him and turned to ask my second uncle: "What do you mean is this mute emperor, is the King of South China Sea?"
"The King of South China Sea was suppressed and then demoted to a commoner and finally disappeared from the sea. Don't you think it's a bit similar? There are large mudflats here. Do you have to rely on Liu Sang to listen carefully to it." After saying that, the second uncle looked at Liu Sang.
Liu Sang looked at the sky. There was no cloud in the sky. If it could thunder, there would be a ghost. The fat man said to him: "I'll buy a few firecrackers to set them off, do you want to listen?"
Liu Sang looked at his watch and said to the fat man: "I calculate money by time. If you want to save some money for your second uncle, you can make less trouble. Firecrackers are not good, you have to use detonators. I heard that Fat Master, you are good at playing with explosives, and I don't know how you are frying mud?"
The fat man saw Liu Sang's style and sneered: "You boy look down on people. You fat man can even fry the mud, not to mention fried mud, but frying shit can be fried into Grammys."
After Liu Sang arrived at the car, he opened the trunk, flipped out a box of detonators and threw them to me and Fatty. He also wanted to throw them to the Duo Oil Bottle, but he thought for a while but didn't dare to throw them away. The fat man shook his hand and threw himself to the Duo Oil Bottle. Liu Sang blushed and threw the detonators to the Fatty. The four of us looked at each other, and Liu Sang began to take off our clothes. The three of us immediately took off our clothes.
"I'll listen in the middle. You detonate each of the three corners. If there is something underneath, I'll find it for you within 40 minutes." Liu Sang wore a special headphone. Liu Sang was very thin, and his naked body was tattooed with an incomplete Qilin. It can be seen that it was imitating the Mujiu Bottle, but his tattoo was not as good as the Mujiu Bottle, and he had not finished it.
Liu Sang's face was flushed. The fat man was about to speak, but Liu Sang cursed: "Stop talking! Let's go!" and walked towards the mudflat.
