On the morning of the first day of the new year, before dawn, the kites and their girls shouted to go to the shrine, I played mahjong all night, and I was confused at this time, muttering that I didn't want to go, and I didn't believe in this god, why should I worship him!

But the girls said they couldn't do anything, they had to go. I could only get up, get dressed, and follow them to greet the gods early in the morning!

Dongying has always had this particularity, the first visit of the New Year, called Chuyi, that is, after the bell rings on Chinese New Year's Eve, countless Dongying people flock to shrines and temples together, burn incense to worship Buddha, count fortunes, and pray for the happiness and safety of the whole family in the new year. For this reason, the transportation department of Hyundai Toei operates all night on Chinese New Year's Eve, and all shrines open their doors to welcome worship.

However, in ancient times, the traffic was not so convenient, and it is estimated that people did not have such good things, so they got up at dawn and ran to worship the Buddha.

Dongying also pays attention to the fact that the meals on the first, second, and third days of the new year will be completed on the day before the Chinese New Year's Eve. In the past three days, there were no fireworks, and they all ate cold food.

You said that early in the morning, when you get up, you pour a stomach of cold rice, how uncomfortable is it? So in my previous life, I was in Dongying for more than 20 years, and I couldn't find a restaurant to cook hot rice for the past three days, and I was always with instant noodles. It's a pity that I can't find an artifact like instant noodles in this life!

Sitting at the entrance of the shrine, I took the hot tea I had asked for from the monks, drank it one by one, and waited for a few girls to go inside. When it was dawn, these girls were still inside, and the nine ghosts who got up in the back, Masataka, Lakshen, and Rodriguez also rushed to the shrine one after another, to put it bluntly, just to have a lively time.

When they came out of the shrine, they all looked mysterious, and I don't know what kind of fallacies they had heard, as if they were all masters. Wu shook his head and didn't comment, but these girls continued to pull me forward and came to a stall with "sign bag" banners. Everything, one person has to buy one.

I pondered for a while, isn't this so-called bag actually a blessing bag for future generations? After worshipping the gods, people came out to buy a lucky bag, and pulled out a note from it, saying good luck! Eat chicken tonight! No, it's a New Year's greeting like all the best, and it's a New Year's head.

Just buy it, it's a thing anyway. So one of us bought one, and I didn't pick it, so I found one at random. Looking carefully, what I got was a red background and gold-edged bag with gold edges, and I was not in a hurry to open it after I got it, so I watched them open it first.

As a result, I don't know what the kite gets, and after several girls saw it, they let out a scream of "ahhhhhh The kite's face flushed with pleasure, and she just aimed her eyes at me. It baffles me.

The other people drew either financial luck or official luck, but in short, they were all good. The men laughed, but the girls were very unhappy. I tugged at the sleeve of the kite and said, "What kind of good lottery did you draw?" I'll see! ”

But the kite didn't show me, and moved the sign to the other side of the body. As a result, Mo didn't know when he came over, stared at it, and read: "Good marriage sign!" ”

It's worthy of engaging in intelligence! His thought made him blush! Chased and hit the ink for a long time!

Oh, that's how she looks. Forget it, I still don't mention it!

This is, several girls came around, pulled my sleeve and said, "Sir, it's just that your bag has not been revealed!" Open it up and take a look! Isn't it also marriage! ”

As he spoke, he swept his eyes between me and the kite.

I shook my head and smiled bitterly, these guys! I was forced to have no choice but to open my signature bag, pull out a note from it, and glance at it casually, but my eyes were sucked on it, and I couldn't leave it anymore! So I read it twice more seriously, and my face became a little ugly!

When others saw that I didn't speak, their faces were so bad, they probably drew some bad lots. The atmosphere froze for a while, but they didn't want to ask. In the end, he still didn't regret and asked: "Qilan, this is just a thing, don't take it too seriously, the past is over!" ”

The kite also nodded and said, "Yes, yes, this is just a joke." But then again, what exactly is written? There has never been a bad sign written in the bag! ”

I shook my head and smiled bitterly, and said lightly: "It's not bad, it's ......"

After thinking about it, I handed the signature to No Regrets. Dongying, who didn't regret it, couldn't recognize the whole text, Lan took it curiously, and came up with the kite to take a look, but the faces of the two of them also changed! After thinking about it, he didn't pass it down again, but handed it back to me!

I sighed, took it, and smiled, "It seems that this is fate!" ”

The people next to him were extremely curious, but they felt that they couldn't ask. I thought about it, and there was nothing I couldn't say, so I said softly: "It's four proverbs!" It's similar to the last time I was on Himejima, the few words that Granny Yunhu told me! With that, my hand involuntarily pressed on the red and white stone pendant on my chest.

He frowned and said, "Mother-in-law Yunhu? "Then there was no more, he knew, I took that time on Himejima very seriously, and although he didn't know about the red and white stones and the mysterious gate, he always felt that it was unusual. But I can't say why, I can only be silent.

I saw that the atmosphere was awkward for a while, so I took the lead and smiled: "It's not a bad thing, it's just a few hints." Should...... It should be a good thing! After all, it's better to have someone to remind you than not to have one! ”

As I spoke, I glanced at the middle-aged woman who sold the skewers, her face was ordinary, she didn't look like some hermit master, and I couldn't know exactly that the skewer bag would fall into my hands, so let's mess with this ghost!

I shook my head and smiled again, "Let's go!" Let's go eat! I'm hungry after walking for half a day! ”

Zhang Youxi pouted and said, "You know you're hungry!" You'll eat the most in the morning! ”

I sighed, "I don't care if I eat cold!" ”

The crowd laughed again and discussed what to eat. Arashi proposes, go eat pufferfish!

A few guys from Dongying clapped their hands, but a few people from the Central Plains didn't know why.

However, Rodriguez, a half-Dongying person who has been soaking in Dongying for several years, said with a smile: "In Dongying, this puffer fish is a treasure!" You can't usually eat it! ”

Halleha, who also grew up by the sea, wondered: "Pufferfish? Isn't puffer fish highly poisonous? My uncle's poisoning is gone, how can I eat that? ”

Lan said: "It is popular to eat puffer fish in the coastal area, and it is a high-end product that ordinary people can't afford!" When eating puffer fish hot pot, we all call it "iron cannon pot", because puffer fish looks like a cannon barrel! The "white sake" brewed with fish white tastes so good that people call it "Shih Tzu milk". Fugu sashimi is also the "king of taste"! ”

Halleha still frowned and said, "But the toxin ......"

I added with a smile, "I don't like sashimi, but I know it." The toxin in the body of the puffer fish is said to be more than cyanide...... Well, a thousand times more poisonous than the most poisonous thing in the world! But toxins are mainly concentrated in the ovaries, liver, and gallbladder, and only need a very skilled chef to deal with them! So there are also words about eating puffer fish desperately, which shows how tempting the deliciousness of this poison is - although I don't like to eat it! ”

I pursed my lips as I spoke. Arashi exclaimed, "I know a shop that specializes in puffer fish sashimi, and that shop has been open for more than ten years, and it has never killed anyone!" Let's go eat! ”

I sighed twice, when did it start, the restaurant has become a label for eating undead people! But the greedy girls and curious boys can't resist it, so they can only go with the flow!

Through the surging flow of people, we came to a residential area to the west of the temple, and not far away there was a small two-story building with wind flags painted with puffer fish! A few of us got into it, and just as a group of people inside had just finished eating, and they went out satisfied, so we went in and occupied all the small shops!

I have to say that the craftsmanship of this master is really good, with the knives of this era, he actually cut the puffer fish as thin as a piece of paper! Spread out on a plate like a blooming flower! In the end, even I, a person who doesn't eat raw food, ate two slices of chopped green onions, spicy radish puree, grapefruit juice and vinegar seasoning, and sure enough, it melts in my mouth, but I just don't like it!

So I dropped my chopsticks and drank the wine quietly.

Rodriguez also tasted it, looked at me and smiled, and suddenly said: "Captain, looking at this puffer fish sashimi, I suddenly remembered an interesting thing, which is useful for navigation!" But...... Gee! ”

At this point, there is no follow-up. I was curious: "Don't sell it!" What are you going to say? What a good thing, let's hear what! ”

Rodriguez pursed his lips and smiled, took another sip of wine, and said with a smile: "It is said that there is a treasure hidden in the shrine in Nagasaki, which is the statue of this puffer fish. It's not just a pufferfish, it's a puffer fish statue! ”

I laughed and said, "Puffer fish statue? What can I do? When the shells are fired, scare the enemy to death? ”

The owner of the fish shop, a middle-aged man in his fifties, listened to our words and said with a smile: "Young man, that puffer fish statue is really a good thing!" ”

I turned my head and laughed, "Oh! Then please talk to the seniors, how is it a good method? ”

The boss sat down cross-legged, took a puff of dry tobacco, and said in a hoarse voice: "When I was young, I also went out to sea to fish. There are few fish in the offshore waters, but they are safe; There are many fish in the open sea, but they are dangerous. If you encounter any strong wind and waves, you don't know how long you will drift. At this time, food has become the biggest problem. ”

We listened to him quietly, and no one interrupted him. The boss continued, "So before we go out to sea, we all go to pay homage to the puffer fish statue at the Nagasaki Temple!" It is said that you can save one-third of your food when you go to sea! Save one-third no matter how you eat! ”

When I heard this, I laughed, it turned out to be a legend!

The boss said unhappily: "What I said is true! I've had big winds and waves at sea, twice a year! My boat, every time it was loaded with so much food, every time it was so many people, but the difference was that once I went to worship the puffer fish god and once I didn't, guess what? ”

I smiled and said, "What's the matter?" ”

The boss squinted his eyes and said, "The time we worshipped, our food came back, and there is still a bottom left!" The time there was no worship, but they almost starved to death! We survived the last few days by eating raw fish! To this day, the root of the disease is still falling! ”

When I heard this, I was shocked! Don't...... Is this true? If it's true, then it's a priceless treasure!
