Movie Title: "The Mysterious Visitor: The Old Man Who Fishes"

Director: Me, Screenwriter: Me, Actors: Several.

According to common sense, actors always have to listen to the director and screenwriter, or to put it bluntly, they should listen to me.

But the reality is not optimistic, so what, even if you are disobedient, you have to follow my plot, okay

In my guess, this old man should be a capable man, but reality slapped me hard.

"What are you looking at me for?" Old Man Zuo looked at us confused, first checked whether his clothes were dirty, and then checked the zipper of his pants to make sure that there were no mistakes, he was even more confused: "What's wrong?" ”

"Do you know what that is?" Hai Dongqing asked without leaking, and did not directly ask about liquor.

"Knowing the way, you don't know the way?" Old Man Zuo looked at us even more strangely, maybe Hai Dongqing couldn't understand his eyes, but Uncle Fat and I obviously understood.

That's a look at a fool.

I smiled dryly and shook my head, "What's that?" ”

"The hundred-legged monster has been seen once in the Yangtze River, but it is not as big as this, at most it is only half its size." Old Man Zuo said with a smile, walked back to the fire with the wine jug, and looked up to take a sip.

The fat uncle had already expected it.

I frowned and couldn't help but ask, "Can you make it clear?" This is the first time we've seen anything like this. ”

"Have you watched "Canglan Zhi"? It is the book written by Xie Ninglan in the Ming Dynasty. Old Man Zuo asked.

Hai Dongqing and I looked at each other for a moment, shook our heads, and said that I hadn't seen it.

Uncle Fat's expression was a little excited, and he asked tentatively, "Have you read that book?" ”

"Old man, I have only three hobbies in this life." Old man Zuo Ha Lu Ha Da Lu smiled and gestured his fingers at us: "The first is to drink, the second is to eat meat, and the third is fishing." ”

According to Mr. Zuo, he usually likes to read books when he is idle and bored, especially the records of aquatic creatures, saying that he can't recognize the type of fish when he catches a fish in the future, how embarrassing is that?

It's strange to say, this old man is also in a panic, and after reading the modern records, it is said that they are the same, and I think it is better to read some ancient records and be a little interesting.

The book "Canglan Zhi" is one of the books he is most interested in.

(Note: Canglan Zhi, written by an unknown literati in the Ming Dynasty, this person's surname is Xie, his name is Xie Tan (su fourth tone), the word Ning Lan, is also a person who loves fishing in Leshui, from a certain point of view, he can also be regarded as a powerful character, comparable to Yun Youzi, of course, they study different fields, one is a water creature, and the other is an evil spirit. ）

"I've heard about that book for a long time, and I've always wanted to read it, but four (is) an opportunity to anoint! Can't find it! The fat uncle said excitedly: "Hungry also recognizes this thing four (is) hundred-legged monsters, but Hungry knows too little about this kind of thing, why don't you explain it to the hungry people?" ”

As I said, there are two characteristics of the fat uncle, one is eating, and the other is his curiosity.

Afterwards, he told me that the "Canglan Zhi" can be said to be out of print, and there are only dozens of hand-copied ancient books and original ancient books, and it is really difficult to find this book.

Don't think this book is boring, it's actually a book similar to the Classic of Mountains and Seas, but there is a lot of documentary content in this book, and of course, there are some things that are hard to believe.

The following are excerpts from the book that I took a few years later, just for reference.

"In the south of the Yangtze River, there is a mahogany clear fish, its body is like a wood, it is hidden when it enters the water, it lives in the water, people can not see it, knock it with a stick, the fish body is scattered, three days into a pearl, seven days and another life, its life and death, people are difficult to understand."

"The length of the Yellow River, I don't know a thousand zhang, Hanoi spirits, I don't know a thousand hundreds, there is a strange, the name "eye", its body is round and white, the body has pupils, such as human eyes, looking at people for three days, people are dead and soul flying. ”

"There is a strange pond in Qiongzhou, a hundred zhang deep, its width is not more than one zhang, there is no fish in the water, there is no fish in the water, if people enter the pool, they will be swallowed, its strange fish head and human body, people who come and go see it, all retreat outside the three zhang, no courage to step forward."

The information in this book is difficult to find, and it can be said that many people who are interested in wild history have never heard of this book at all, not even the person who wrote it.

Perhaps after hearing the author's name, many people reacted like this: "Xie Ninglan, which grandson is it?" ”

Come back first.

Old Man Zuo didn't refuse after hearing Uncle Fat's words, smiled and waved his hand, motioning for us to sit down first, as if he was going to talk while eating and drinking.

"Old man, I've encountered a lot of strange things in my life, and the one that came out just now is not too rare." Old Man Zuo drank wine and smiled, and there was endless nostalgia in his tone: "I think that at the beginning, the old man what I saw in the Yellow River was much more exaggerated than this. ”

Hearing this, my curiosity was immediately hooked, and I hurriedly asked, "Can you tell me?" ”

"If there's anything to say, I'll tell you about this monster." Old Man Zuo smiled.

"Isn't this a jellyfish?" I'm puzzled.

Old Man Zuo shook his head: "It's a monster, not a jellyfish." ”

I frowned, confused, and said, "Doesn't that look like a jellyfish?" ”

", in those ancient stories, ghosts still look like people, are they human?" Old man Zuo has the potential to become the leader of the debate team, and he can do it from one to four debates, and he didn't run.

I smiled awkwardly and said, you say, I don't interject.

"You can't plug in your feet." Old man Zuo Ha Lu Ha Da Lu smiled and took a sip of wine: "Hundred-footed monster, also known as hundred-footed peach blossoms, is different from peach blossom jellyfish, it is something that eats plankton, this is grown up eating fish, and when it grows to a certain point, it can eat people." ”

According to Mr. Zuo, the first time this thing appeared was in the Kaiyuan period of the Tang Dynasty, but there is no specific record, and the clearest record in the Canglan Chronicles is the second appearance of this thing.

The following content was recorded in the Hongwu period of the Ming Dynasty and was written by Xie Ninglan.

"In the year of Hongwu, the Yangtze River is strange."

"Strange life for three days, the body is like a peach blossom, exquisite, one collection and one harvest, leisurely, not afraid of people, and has the courage to play between people's fingers."

"Strange life for three months, the body is like a huge tank, a collection and a harvest, swallowing fish and eating shrimp, hidden in the water, no one can see, exposing its body and a hundred feet, no one is not afraid, the foot is poisonous, if people are close, they will be poisoned by their monsters, swallowed into the stomach, and death can not be spoken."

"Strange live June, the body is like ten cylinders, the north of the Yangtze River, no one dares to approach its body ten zhang, this strange foot can step on the shore, step on the ground to walk, the waterfront ten zhang, no one dares to approach also."

"There is a saying that this monster is afraid of wine, and the five grains can be controlled."

Listening to the explanation given to us by the old man Zuo, the fat uncle became more and more energetic the more he listened, and the expression on his face was just like the expression he usually had when he looked at the animal world, and his face was full of "Hungry and curious." ”

Hai Dongqing is not as exaggerated as Uncle Fat, but it is almost the same as me, and I am fascinated when I listen to it, I just feel that these things should be legends, not reality.

"Since someone wrote it, then there must be some basis for these things." Old man Zuo burped, threw the fish bone in his hand to the ground, and said with a burp: "The more real things, the more exaggerated they are, and the more exaggerated things are, the more no one believes them. ”

I nodded with deep feelings, respectfully took out a cigarette, and handed one to Mr. Zuo.

"You speak deeply enough, there are so many things that know the Tao, amazing, really powerful." I praised the old man with my thumbs up, and he smiled, and his face was useful.

Haidong Qingyi's cool heart was always invincible to curiosity, hesitated, and couldn't help but ask: "Old man, why is it afraid of liquor?" ”

Old Man Zuo shook his head: "I'm not engaged in scientific research, how do I know why I'm afraid of liquor?" ”

"This thing is weird, it's sci-fi." I lit a cigarette for Mr. Zuo first, and then, I lit a cigarette and smoked it, stood up curiously, and looked into the water: "If you spill wine, it's like being evaporated, and you will be invisible, this skill is a bit awesome." ”

"There's so much you haven't seen before." Old man Zuo smoked happily.

"Why haven't you seen anything like it on TV?" Hai Dongqing asked.

Mr. Zuo's answer was very philosophical and even interesting, and I remember his answer at this time many years later.

His answer to Hai Dongqing was just one sentence.

"If you look at Approaching Science and programs like Approaching Science, you get the idea."

At that time, Hai Dongqing didn't understand what this meant, but after thinking about it carefully, he had an epiphany.

On the other hand, that's how it should be.

For example, the name of a certain episode of the show is "Haunted House: The House Owner Listens to the Song in the Middle of the Night!" 》

The worst ending of this kind of show is: the upstairs residents or next-door neighbors are idle at night and play in the middle of the night singing, ghosts and nothing exist, and you have to believe in science.

But after watching it in reverse, the answer to this show should be: Is there really a ghost in the house, this is not bragging, it is not the neighbor who sings, it is a ghost!

We talked to the old man for a while, and when we got the news we wanted, he happened to take his leave.

"Don't be afraid to see this kind of thing, as long as you have the smell of alcohol on your body, it won't dare to approach your body." Old man Zuo sat on the bow of the boat and said with a smile: "In the future, there will be a chance for us to get together again, you little fart children are very interesting, little fat man, the skill of sprinkling salt and seasoning is good, practice more, and when I have the opportunity, I will eat the grilled fish processed by you again, halu ha!" ”

We all smiled and nodded in agreement, including Hai Dongqing, although this old man is quite mysterious, but no matter what, we all think he is a good person, well, a very interesting old man.

Speaking of which, I also feel a little helpless, such a powerful thing is afraid of liquor, what else can we say

This world is really not something we can understand casually

After the old man Zuo said goodbye to us, he shook the oars, and the big fish was still alive, so he led it to the bow of the boat, like walking a dog, looking at it called a.

Time passed quickly, and hours had passed before we knew it, and we only reacted when we saw Old Man Zuo on the boat.

It's time for the sun to set.

"Gone, gone." Old man Zuo took out the wine jug and drank the last bit of wine in the jug, and Ha Lu Ha Da Lu smiled and rowed the oars.

"By the way, old man, what's your full name?" I hurriedly asked, and my heart said that this man only gave us a surname, but not a name, and this feeling was mysterious enough.

"Zuo Guangsi, Guangdong's Guang, Thought's Thinking, Halu Haha!"

Old Man Zuo smiled, rowed the boat, and gradually moved away.

Looking at his slightly clumsy back, we all felt an inexplicable feeling, that is, our hearts were tight.

The sunset, a hundred miles of lake, a lonely boat

All these things seemed to merge with the old man, and he looked desolate and lonely.

At this moment, we all heard the old man singing leisurely, it should be a folk tune, because the distance was too far, we didn't hear the specific content, only vaguely heard the old man laughed out of the last few words.

"Old fisherman, a fishing rod, leaning against the cliff, near the water bay."

"There is no shackle in the boats, the sand gulls are light and far away, and the day is cold in the Hagi Harbor, and the sun is singing in the evening."

"In an instant, the waves shook the golden shadow, raised their heads, and the moon was on the east mountain~~~"
