Chapter 63 sea monk
I hurriedly looked back at the calm water, only the amplitude of the sea surge gradually increased, the two dinghies with the tide surge suddenly up and down, but no other abnormal phenomena, then said to Gu Guai: “Not let you kid do not mention ghosts again? And do not remember, high mountains will hide monsters, forest deep easy to have essence, to this kind of place do not talk nonsense.” Said I have to Shirley Yang with a small mirror, secretly raised to shine Gu Guchai, but the mirror is too small, coupled with the two boats in the water driving ups and downs, and where to see the reflection in the mirror.
Duo Ling was worried about Gu Cai, asked: “Brother, why do you always mention ghosts?” Gu Cai and her sister said a few coral temple island native language, Uncle Ming in the South China Sea for a long time, can understand a lot, he listened to us, the original Gu Cai said is the sea willow boat bilge thing.
Willow boat is made of willow as the main material, from ancient times to the present, there are not a few such boats, before even Uncle Ming have never seen, willow is not wood, but the nature of the extreme yin, so account for a “willow” word, willow in ancient times was regarded as “the first of the five ghosts”, it is said that with willow tree Willow leaves crushed juice, rubbed on the eyelids, in the night to be able to see ghosts, it is with the acacia tree and other five kinds of sex yin tree.
Ancient burial preoccupation with a tree, sealing means sealing the earth, the tree is any one of the five ghost trees, like acacia willow tree is not suitable for planting in the yard of the mansion, because it is a real yin tree, the folk proverb says, “live in the yard, do not plant five ghosts,” is the meaning of this.
Whether it’s the gold detectives or the egg people, all know a common truth – “the name of the name, there must be its cause”, even if it is Zhang San, Li Si, Wang Er Ma Zi, the most common common but the most common name of a person’s name, but also according to the rows, surnames, characteristics and produce, “Willow”. “Willow” this title, naturally, is not empty talk, it is in addition to the shape of the willow, but also with the willow tree of the nature of the Yin, the legend is drowned by the sea water is the sea ghosts, sea ghosts tend to gather in the sea willow, with the moonlight out of the sea, the years and days, the sea willow in the cohesion of a ghost, touching the ghost of the living, immediately for the The living person who touches this ghostly energy will immediately die from the coldness.
Believe it or not, don’t believe it or not, anyway, a thousand years in the willow, there is such an invisible and unqualified yin gas, like some clamshells, will naturally give birth to the exquisite Buddha, willow in the yin gas is also more into the human form, with the willow shipbuilding and sailing, can penetrate through the waves deep into the ocean, even if it is encountered in the waves and waves, as long as the ship’s part of the millennium use of the willow, often can be turned into a safe and sound, relying entirely on the willow in the Sea ghost yin qi, but the sea is taboo is more, sea willow ship must have a secret cabin, for sea ghosts, there is such a superstition, who talked about sea ghosts on the sea willow ship, who will die.
The secret cabin for the sea ghosts, most of them will put the sea rock flower, and locked with the sea bandit bones, because the sea willow boat to the sea, the hull of the sea willow will be the yin qi surging, the crew will be inexplicably keep dying, only the sea rock flower can absorb the ghost qi, the sea rock flower near the sea there is often a kind of half-fish, half-shrimp, “sea monks,” this kind of fish out of the water can also survive, is a kind of amphibious organisms, caught by people. A kind of amphibious creatures, was caught on the kowtow and beg for forgiveness, mouth cooing, seems to be reading “Amitabha Buddha”, it usually specializes in sucking and licking the sea rock flower to absorb the black water after the transformation of the Yin Qi, superstitious crews believe that the black water, is the ghost of the sea willow in the grievances of the sea monk”. Sea monk” is the Bodhisattva fish in the sea, the fish head has “black relics”, they are on the boat chanting Buddha can transcend the dead, so some fishermen fish “sea monk” will be immediately released, never any fishermen dare to eat this kind of fish.
And the sea bandit’s bones, but also on the sea willow boat can not be less of the town of the ship, it can deter the dead in the sea willow, in the South China Sea, this strange strange customs are countless, and now the sea willow boat has almost disappeared from the world, and so on and so forth incredible taboo can not be believed, but also can not not be believed, that group of British salvage team, don’t believe in this evil, and intend to catch a few “sea monks The British salvage team did not believe in this evil, intended to catch a few “sea monk” to do specimens, the results of the taboo, by the sea willow in the Yin Qi invasion, in vain, a good life.
Uncle Ming heard some of the wind, do not mention really forget, and only know a general, but never personally seen, then Gu Cai Ruan Hei previously told him some things to tell out, the crowd only know one or two, Gu Cai is convinced, he always thought master Ruan Hei died, ghost attached to the bottom of the cabin of the sea willows, at that time, although it is scared and afraid, but now leave the ship and go, but not inevitably reluctant to part with it, can not stop looking back to see whether the sea ghosts in the water, and would like to See if there is master Ruan Hei among the sea ghosts in the water.
Said here, more than Ling and Gu Guchai and all fall into tears, the two put down the wooden oars to raise their hands to wipe the tears, their boat suddenly slowed down, I took the opportunity to use the mirror to shine Gu Guchai’s back, was about to look at, the hands of the mirror was Shirley Yang took back, she whispered to me: “What are you going to do again ghosts? What are you doing with the mirror?”
I told her about seeing the captain’s ghost in the shipwreck, and Shirley Yang said, “You were just blaming Gu Cai for always mentioning ghosts and breaking taboos, but now it’s good, saying the same thing and doing the same thing, and you’ve said all the words both inside and outside.”
I said to Shirley Yang, “Our future is bright, but the road is winding, now we are lost in the chaotic ruins, on this winding road, we have to be careful about everything, who can really prove that there are ghosts in the world or not? In case there is something unclean that haunts Gu Cai, you and I naturally can not stand by and watch, but really wait for something to happen it will be too late, by then the cucumbers and vegetables are all cold, I just feel that Gu Cai is not quite right when he is under the water, do you have this feeling?”
Shirley Yang shook her head and said: “I see Duo Ling and Gu Cai these two siblings are simple people, in the Mary Sinu ship also did not find Gu Cai what is not normal place, I know you have to worry about our group of people in the sea of uncertainty about the fate, but you do not add too much pressure on yourself, I saw in the captain’s room there is a portrait of the captain himself, is the falling cheeks I saw a portrait of the captain himself in the captain’s cabin, with a beard and a pipe in his gold watch-wearing hand, and the cabin was very narrow, and we had brought a lot of diving lighting equipment with us, and the light and shadows were interlaced and refracted under the water waves, so that perhaps what you saw in the mirror was only a reflection of the portrait above.”
I sniffed dumbfounded, could it indeed be that I was blinded and misread? Underwater darkness, lack of oxygen and high pressure in a complex environment, coupled with diving lighting equipment shaking, this is also not ready to do, maybe the ghost in the mirror is a momentary illusion, but then thought, we dive to salvage the “King of the Qin Dynasty mirror” in the process of too many incomprehensible things happen, are all these things belong to the normal category? Why would the shark repellent carried on the body underwater at the same time fail to melt away? Why are those sharks chasing and biting us like crazy? One day’s indulgence is a danger to everything. Now that the salvage team has already lost one member, how can we turn a blind eye to these strange events if we want to bring back all the survivors? The sea has swallowed up many living beings since ancient times, and the dead ghosts on the bottom of the sea are by no means less than those on the land, and things in the sea are too difficult to say, and are many times more complicated than those in the mountains and old forests, and we, the Golden Toupee Officers, often brag about ourselves, saying that we are very human, and that we have come across very unusual things, and that we have not been able to compare with the ordinary people in terms of experience and knowledge, but when it comes to the sea, we are almost as blind, and we are not as good as Uncle Ming, and that’s called the difference between the worlds. This is called the “different line of work is like a mountain”.
Shirley Yang originally wanted to comfort me for a few words, but I said so, she had to be slightly knitted eyebrows, just now diving for green head of the action, she also stored in her mind a lot of questions, but for the time being, but do not have any clue, one side of the paddle in the hands of the wooden paddle, one side of the sea water out of breath.
At this time the fat man said to us: “you two really enough no pursuit, do not own with their own bad, I see the sea ah hometown, really like the song, we egg people born on the beach, the sea grows, the sea is like our mother, as generous and selfless, so that we this time to fish full of pots and pots, and so feed the strength, while the eye of the sea when there is water, directly swim out is not the end! I don’t know why I care so much, besides, you two are just focusing on whispering, the old thieves in Hong Kong Nong side is not idle.”
Fatty signaled me to pay attention to Uncle Ming’s movement, we put the lifeboat to Uncle Ming three people where the boat leaned over, only to hear Uncle Ming is comforting Duo Ling and Gu Guchai, claiming that he is the heart of the hearts of the two children like these two, persuade the two of them do not go to France to look for their relatives, simply to worship their own as a teacher, and bragged: “Why do you all call me as Uncle Ming it? Because you Uncle I am the light, in the South Seas anyone knows, as long as it is followed Uncle Ming’s people, will never fall into the darkness …….”
Fatty and I immediately whistled to Uncle Ming: “You quickly and quickly rest, what kind of bird you are we do not know? It’s just an amphibious speculator who has broken up his business, isn’t it? When did you take yourself as a saint? Your skin is three inches thicker than the corner of a city wall.”
Even if there is no Ruan Hei’s dying promise, I can not stand by and watch Guchai and Duo Ling to jump into the fire pit of Uncle Ming, in France to find Duo Ling’s biological father, she should be able to get a real belong to her own life, and Guchai is only fifteen or sixteen years old, his future should be more broad, he is not like me and Fatty sixteen or seventeen at that time, when we did not have the choice of the future of a choice of the year, the words There was a saying back then, “Don’t ask about morality, intelligence and physical fitness, just ask about the line of old age, or not ask about the line of old age, definitely ask about the 50’s”, which means that the young people’s way out is to go to the countryside, and if there are many siblings in the family, the oldest one will stay, the oldest one will go, the oldest one will stay, the oldest one will go, and the oldest one will go, so those who are inserted into the army ask about the line of old age, and those who are not yet employed and stay in the city can take the place of their fathers’ jobs. The prerequisite is to first see the father’s fifties, so that our group of people before the age of thirty, do not have any choice about their own destiny.
