Chapter 37 Monk Hai
Chapter 37 Monk Hai
I hurriedly looked back at the calm water surface. Only the amplitude of the sea surge gradually increased. The two small boats rose and fell with the tide, but there was no other abnormality. Then I said to Guchai: "Don't you tell me not to mention ghosts? I don't have any memory. The mountains are high and there will be monsters. The forest is deep and there are good spirits. Don't talk nonsense when you go to such places." After that, I wanted to pass a small mirror that Shirley Yang brought with me and secretly lifted it up to look at Guchai, but the mirror was too small, and the two boats were undulating on the water surface, so how could I see the reflection in the mirror clearly.
Duoling was worried about Gu Chai and asked, "Junior brother, why do you always mention ghosts?" Gu Chai said a few words about Coral Temple Island to her senior sister. Uncle Ming had been in Nanyang for a long time and could understand a lot. After hearing this, he told us that Gu Chai was talking about the bottom cabin of the sea willow ship.
The sea willow boat is made of sea willow as the main material. From ancient times to the present, there are not many such ships. Even Uncle Ming has never seen it before. Sea willow is not a wood, but its nature is extremely yin, so it occupies the word "willion". In ancient times, willow was regarded as the "head of the five ghosts". It is said that the willow leaves were crushed and rubbed on the eyelids, and ghosts could be seen at night. It is the five kinds of yin trees that are parallel to locust trees.
In ancient times, tombs emphasized seals and trees. Seals mean seals. Trees are any type of five ghost trees. Lotus and willow trees are not suitable for planting in the yard of a yang house because they are a veritable yin house tree. There is a folk proverb that says, "Don't plant the five ghosts in the yard of a home." This is exactly the meaning.
Whether it is the Jinshiwei or the Danmin, they all know a common truth - "There must be a reason for the name." Even the most ordinary people like Zhang San, Li Si, and Wang Ermazi are all produced according to the ranking, surname, and characteristics. The title "Sea Willow" is naturally not groundless. In addition to its shape is like a willow, it also has the yin nature of a willow tree. Legend has it that people who are drowned by the sea water are sea ghosts. Sea ghosts often gather on the sea willow. As the moonlight appears on the sea surface, over the years, a mass of ghost energy is condensed in the sea willow. When the living people touch this ghost energy will immediately die of the cold.
Whether you believe it or not, in any case, there is such an invisible and intangible yin energy in the thousand-year-old sea willow. Just like some clam shells, vivid Buddha statues will naturally be born. The yin energy in the sea willow also becomes human-shaped. Using sea willows to build a ship to sail through waves and break through waves and go deep into the ocean. Even if you encounter a storm, as long as a part of the ship uses a thousand-year-old sea willow, it can often turn danger into danger. It is entirely relied on the yin energy of the sea ghost in the sea willow. However, there are many taboos on the sea willow ship. There must be a secret cabin in the sea willow ship to worship sea ghosts. There is such a superstitious saying that whoever talks about sea ghosts on the sea willow ship will die.
In the secret cabins that offer sea ghosts, most of them will release sea stone flowers and lock the corpses of the corpses. Because the sea willow boat sails to the sea willow in the hull, the perineal energy surges, and the crew will most of them die inexplicably. Only sea stone flowers can absorb this ghost energy. There is often a kind of "Sea Monk" with half a fish and half a shrimp near the sea stone flowers. This kind of fish can survive even if it is caught. It is an amphibian creature. When it is caught, it kowtows and begs for mercy. Its mouth is chanted, as if it is chanting "Amitabha". It usually sucks and licks the sea stone flowers and absorbs the black water after absorbing the yin energy. The superstitious crew believe that the black water is the resentment of the ghosts in the sea willow. The "Sea Monk" is the Bodhisattva fish in the sea. There are "black relics" in the fish's head. They can chant Buddha's name on the boat to save the dead. Therefore, fishermen will release animals immediately when they catch the "Sea Monk", and no fishermen dare to eat this fish.
The corpses of the siege are also indispensable ship-guarding objects on the Hailiu Ship. They can shock the undead in the Hailiu Ship. In the South Ocean, there are countless such strange and strange customs. Now the Hailiu Ship is almost extinct in the world. Such incredible taboos cannot be believed, nor should they be believed. The British salvage team did not believe in this evil and planned to catch a few "Sea Monks" to make specimens. As a result, they violated the taboo and were invaded by the yin energy in the Hailiu Ship, which ruined their lives in vain.
Uncle Ming had heard of it a little, but he forgot it without mentioning it. He only knew a rough idea, but never saw it personally. At this time, Gu Chai told him something that Ruan Hei had told him before, and everyone knew it. Gu Chai believed it deeply. He always believed that after his master Ruan Hei died, the ghost was attached to the sea willow in the bottom cabin. Although he was shocked and scared at that time, he was now leaving the boat and couldn't help but reluctant to leave. He couldn't help looking back and wanted to see if there was a master Ruan Hei in the sea ghosts in the water.
Speaking of this, Duoling and Gu Chai shed tears again. The two of them put down the wooden oars and raised their hands to wipe their tears. Their boat suddenly slowed down. I took the opportunity to use the mirror to look at Gu Chai's back. Just as I was about to take a closer look, the mirror in my hand was taken back by Shirley Yang. She whispered to me: "What are you going to do? Why are you looking at them with the mirror?"
I told her about the captain's ghost in the shipwreck. Shirley Yang said: "You were just blaming Guchai for always talking about ghosts and cheating, but now you are good. You say the same thing and do the same thing. You have said everything inside and outside."
I said to Shirley Yang: "Our future is bright, but the road is tortuous. Now we are wandering in the chaos of Guixu. On this tortuous road, we have to be cautious in everything. Who can really prove that there are ghosts or no ghosts in the world? If there is something unclean and you and I can't stand by, but it will be too late to wait for something to happen. By then, the cucumbers and vegetables will be cold. I think Guqi is not right at the bottom of the water. Do you feel this way?"
Shirley Yang shook his head and said, "I saw that Duoling and Gucai are both simple people. I didn't notice anything abnormal about Gucai on the Mary Fairy Slave. I know you have to worry about the uncertain future of our group at sea, but don't add too much pressure to yourself. I saw a portrait of the captain himself in the captain's room. He was wearing a beard and holding a pipe in his hand with a gold watch. The cabin was very narrow. We brought a lot of diving lighting equipment. The light and shadow were interlaced under the water waves. Maybe what you see in the mirror was just reflecting the portrait above."
I was stunned when I heard this. Could it be that I was really a mistake? In the complex environment of darkness, hypoxia and high pressure underwater, coupled with the shaking of diving lighting equipment, this is also unprepared. Perhaps the ghost in the mirror was a temporary illusion, but then I thought, there were too many difficult things that happened during the diving to salvage the "Qin King's Bone Mirror". Is all these things a normal category? Why did the shark repellent on the body fail at the bottom of the water at the same time? Why did those evil sharks chase and bite us like crazy? One day, the enemy is insulted, and all things are in trouble, like
The salvage team has lost a member. If you want to bring all the survivors back, how can you ignore these strange things? Don’t bully the mountains and waters. The sea has swallowed up many creatures from ancient times to the present. The dead ghosts at the bottom of the sea are no less than on land. Moreover, the things in the sea are too difficult to say, and they are so complicated than the deep mountains and forests. We often boast about ourselves that people are extraordinary people, and what they encounter are extraordinary things, and their experiences are not even as good as ordinary people. But when they are put on the sea, we are almost blind, and even worse than Uncle Ming. This is called walking across like a mountain.
shirley Yang Yuan wanted to comfort me, but after I said this, she had to frown slightly. She also had many questions about the action of diving to catch the green head just now, but she had no clue for the time being. While slashing the wooden oar in her hand, she looked at the sea water and was speechless.
At this time, the fat man said to us: "You two really don't pursue it. Don't be unable to get along with yourself. I see the sea, my hometown, it's like singing in a song. We were born by the Danmin Sea and grew up in the sea. The sea is like our mother, and we are generous and selfless to us. Let's make a fortune this time. When we have enough strength, we will swim out directly when the sea has water. We don't care what he has done. Besides, you two are just whispering, and the old thief of Hong Kong farmers are not idle either."
The fat man signaled me to pay attention to Uncle Ming's movements. We leaned over to the boat where Uncle Ming and the other three were. We only heard Uncle Ming comforting Duoling and Gucai, claiming that he liked these two children from the bottom of his heart, and advised them not to go to France to look for relatives. He simply took his own teacher and boasted: "Why do we call me Uncle Ming? Because you, I am the light. Everyone in Nanyang knows that as long as you follow Uncle Ming, you will never fall into the darkness..."
I immediately whistled and cheered Uncle Ming: "Stop quickly. Do we still know what kind of bird you are? Isn't it just a bankrupt amphibious speculator? When will you treat yourself as a saint? Your face is three inches thicker than the corners of the city wall."
Even without Ruan Hei's entrusted before his death, I wouldn't have watched Gu Cai and Duoling jump into the fire pit of Uncle Ming. After finding Duoling's biological father in France, she should be able to get a life that truly belongs to her. Gu Cai is only fifteen or sixteen years old, and his future should be broader. He is not like me and the fat man and the sixth. We had no choice in the future at that time. There was a saying back then, "Don't ask about morality, intelligence and physical fitness, only ask about the old man. If you don't ask about the old man, you must ask about the old man." This means that the young people's way out is to go to the countryside, there are many brothers and sisters in the family. The eldest stays, the second stays, the third stays, and the fourth stays, so those who go to the countryside all ask about the old man. In addition, unemployed young people who stay in the city can replace their father's jobs. The prerequisite is to look at their father in their fifties first, so we have no right to choose their own destiny before the age of thirty.
