Chapter 174: The Box
Suddenly, Huo Roufeng found a piece of pink in a box of coral, and she opened her mouth wide in surprise.
The seventeen or eighteen-year-old boy was named Ah Quan, he was black and strong, and he spoke with a thick Hokkien accent, and when he saw Huo Roufeng's surprised expression, he said proudly: "These corals were picked by the fifth master himself. ”
Huo Roufeng was curious: "How to pick corals?" Are your corals so interesting? ”
Ah Quan said with a smile: "It's to dive to the bottom of the sea and pick up corals, the fifth master's water nature is very good, he can hold it for a long time in one breath, like this coral, you can bring a piece of it five or six times to the sea." ”
Huo Roufeng was slightly stunned and said, "It takes five or six times to pick a piece?" ”
"Yes, the fifth master has five or six times to pick a piece, and only experienced people in the Tan people can do it, most of the Tan people who make a living by picking coral also have to be ten times eight times, the fifth master has a martial arts foundation, he has learned to exhale and accept breath, and the ability to dive, if there is no fifth master's ability, it is no matter how good the water is." Ah Quan explained.
Huo Roufeng remembered that when she was in Wuxi Zhuangzi, Zhanhuai taught her to hold her breath in the water, she thought that this was the case for anyone who knew water, but it turned out that Zhanhuai was more clever than those who lived in the sea all year round.
From this point of view, it is not too much for Zhanhuai to accept her such a high bundle of cultivation.
She regretted that she didn't study seriously at that time.
"It turns out that there are pink corals, but I thought there were only red and white ones." She said with emotion as she picked up the pink coral in both hands.
"This kind of pink is called children's noodles, which is rare, and the corals are colorful when they are at the bottom of the sea, in addition to the red and white, and the pink and purple, which is beautiful." The more Ah Quan talked, the happier he became, he had gone to the sea.
Huo Roufeng has a longing for it, but she is self-aware, with her current water nature, she may not have the ability to dive to the bottom of the sea to take a look in this life.
She looked at the box of corals and liked it more and more.
Ah Quan said: "The fifth master said, these are for you to play with as ornaments, if you want to inlay the head of jewelry, he will find you a few excellent red coral next time." ”
Huo Roufeng's mind was on these corals, Ah Quan's accent was heavy, and Huo Roufeng didn't hear it clearly.
The second box is filled with shells and conch, the big one is a ruler long, and the small one is half the size of a palm, Huo Roufeng has lived two lives, both of them grew up in the Qiluo bush, and he has seen a lot of good things, but he has only occasionally seen the big conch in the temple, and the last time he went to Ningbo, he didn't see so many.
Ah Quan was even more proud, picked up a large conch, blew it with a coo, and said to Huo Roufeng after blowing: "This is how we gathered soldiers on the ship. ”
Huo Roufeng also picked up one and tried to blow it, but her cheeks were bulging, but she didn't blow the conch.
But it doesn't matter, these conches are hers, and she will definitely be able to blow them when she practices every day in the future.
Thinking about it like this, playing the flute or something, she has no interest at all, and it is imperative that she learn to play the conch.
She also found a few starfish in this box, and Ah Quan told her that the starfish were all alive when they were first caught, and they could still be eaten.
Huo Roufeng turned the starfish over and looked at them several times, but he didn't have the courage to take a bite.
Ah Quan said: "The fifth master said, this kind of sun-dried starfish is no longer delicious, if you want to eat, wait until you go to Fujian, the fifth master from the sea to catch up, let you eat fresh, choose with seeds, then it is called delicious." ”
Before the third box was opened, Huo Roufeng guessed that it must be a treasure in the sea that she had never seen, but the moment she opened the box, she knew that she had guessed wrong.
This box is full of kites.
"Why are they all kites? Fujian is rich in kites? Huo Roufeng asked.
Ah Quan scratched his head: "These kites were pierced by the fifth master himself, the grandfather of the country would tie kites, the old grandfather of the country would also tie kites, and the prince and the third master would also tie them, but the kites of the fifth master were the best." ”
Huo Roufeng understood, that is to say, this kite is the ancestral craft of the Zhan family.
How can the exhibitor still have such a craft? Shouldn't their family's ancestral crafts be marching and fighting and martial arts?
In her previous life, Huo Roufeng's impression of Min Guogong was limited to Mrs. Gao's husband's family, and she didn't know what the first generation of Min Guogong did before following her mother, maybe she opened a kite shop.
When Huo Roufeng thought of this, she couldn't help laughing, her eyebrows and eyes were crooked with a smile, Ah Quan was confused, and she didn't know if she had said something wrong, which made Huo Jiuye so funny.
Kites are big and small, and the patterns are also varied, there are swallows, peacocks, snails, puppies and monkeys, that puppy, no matter how Huo Roufeng looks at it, he feels like a golden bean.
Seeing the little monkey, she couldn't help but take out the glass monkey around her neck from her collar, and immediately a sweet peach smell came out, Huo Roufeng sucked it greedily, and her stomach gurgled.
There were very few things in the fourth box, only a dozen books, Huo Roufeng picked it up and flipped through it, these dozen books, all of them were various travelogues.
After living for two lifetimes, Huo Roufeng is not a person who dances and inks, and she doesn't even read much, she doesn't know why Zhanhuai gave her more than a dozen books, is it to make fun of her for reading too few books?
You have a martial arts family, how many more books can you read?
Huo Roufeng wrinkled her nose and decided to find a time to let the maids read these travelogues to her locally.
Huo Jiuye is too lazy to read books with her own eyes, relive her life, there are too many beautiful and new things in this world, and her eyes still have to be kept to see better things, so she doesn't want to read books and see presbyopia like Mr. Zhang.
The contents of the fifth box, Huo Roufeng was startled, it was actually a tiger skin, and it was a white tiger skin.
"Why is there this, don't tell me that this is also hunting with your fifth master's own hands." Huo Roufeng said.
She doesn't know if there are tigers in Fujian, and even if there are, there won't be a white tiger that Zhanhuai encounters.
Ah Quan said: "This skin is really not made by the fifth master himself, but it was found by the fifth master himself from the warship of the Japanese people." ”
Huo Roufeng frowned: "Did the Japanese use it?" ”
She didn't want to use what the Japanese had used.
"No, no", Ah Quan shook his head into a drum and said, "This white tiger skin is a gift from the big leader of the Japanese people to the pirates, but unfortunately they haven't been in contact with the pirates, so they were served by the fifth master, this white tiger skin should have been handed over as a trophy, the fifth master quietly stayed, and let the small one be sent to the capital by the ninth master, except for the small one, no one else knows, the fifth master didn't even tell Lang Qing and Hua Siniang." ”
……
It was not easy, I finally found the uploaded file in my phone before the laptop ran out of battery completely. I uploaded it countless times, but it didn't get to my phone, and finally I tried to upload it to the photo, and then it finally appeared.
