Chapter 129 The first time I went to Bird's Nest Island

On the third day of the fall of the Human Snake Gang, the Australian side replied to the offer and agreed to restart negotiations, and the next day, the Chinese Mage Association formed a new delegation to Australia.

It was on this day that the windy rain brought by the typhoon finally stopped, and Wanning, which had been cloudy for three days in a row, finally showed a sunny smile.

Yong Bowen and Liu Yi, who had been in the hotel for three days, immediately drove straight to Wuchang Port to find a boat to Bird's Nest Island.

This bird's nest island, also known as Dazhou Island, is a tourist attraction to enjoy the sea and scenery, such as today's high wind flat, thousands of miles without waves, the ships to the island are one after another, most of them are included in the tour group, and there are not many individual tourists.

Wuchang Port and Bird's Nest Island face each other across the sea, the distance is only more than ten kilometers, it takes not long for the boat to arrive on the island, only to see that the island is divided into two pieces of north and south, there is a jade ribbon-like white sand beach in the middle, the two sides of the twin peaks face each other, the eyes are full of strange peak holes, it is really an endless scenery, endless scenery.

Yong Bowen has something in his heart, although it is a beautiful scenery, but he has no intention of watching, and Liu Yi got off the boat and landed on the island, entered the fishing village on the shore, and asked around the island if there is a family surnamed Ai, and inquired around the village, but there was no gain, but he learned that although the area of the north and south ridges is not large, there are a total of five villages, this village does not, and other villages may be able to have it. The place where the two landed on the island is Puyu Village in Nandaling, which is located at the southernmost tip of Bird's Nest Island and is also the largest village. From then on, along the beach all the way to the north, there are four other villages, all of which are fishing villages, and naturally they have to rely on the sea.

There is still a considerable space in the island, but there are stone peaks to go inside, the terrain is dangerous, there is no water and no road, and there are many snakes and insects that are not suitable for living, except for the nest, few people will go to the island. This bird's nest island has a special golden silk bird's nest, also known as Wanzhou bird's nest, I think it was a well-known tribute back then. The Golden Silk Bird's Nest is produced in the Nam Lo Cave, which is located on the Nam Da Ridge, about 200 meters high, the entrance is wide at the bottom and narrow at the top, and the stone path is curved. The seabird swiftlet lays its eggs in this dark, narrow crevice burrow, gluing other materials with secretions from its mouth. The bird's nest village, located between Nandaling and Beixiaoling, used to make a living from nest picking. Because the mountain is steep and accidents often occur, there are many widows in the village, and it is also called the widow's village. It's just that now the villagers can no longer go to collect bird's nests. The entire Nam Luo Cave and the mountain peaks were contracted and bought out by a company, which cultivated bird's nests by artificial breeding methods in Nam Luo Cave and sold them in a unified manner, monopolizing the production, supply and marketing of Wanzhou bird's nests.

The two of them asked all the way from Puyu Village, but found nothing, and stayed overnight in Bird's Nest Village.

There are a lot of tourists on this island, and most of the tour groups leave on the island on the same day, but many individual tourists who travel independently tend to linger for one or two days, so there are poor guest houses in the village, and if they are full, most of them are willing to stay overnight.

On that day, because a group of students from Hainan University stayed on the island, and they also happened to live on Bird's Nest Island, occupying the guest house, Yong Bowen and the others had to find a family to live in the village.

The family's surname is Chen, there are only two old people in the family, a daughter is in Changsha to go to college, the daughter's vacant room is just used to entertain tourists, the price is more expensive than the guest house, but the conditions are better, and dinner and breakfast are included. The dinner that day was a seafood banquet, all of which were salvaged by themselves, which was extremely fresh, but Yong Bowen was depressed and had no appetite, and Liu Yi ate too many of these things and it was not fresh, so the two of them didn't eat much, and they listened to Old Man Chen talking about the mountains there. Old man Chen is very talkative, starting from the legend of hundreds of caves on the island, talking about the origin of Bird's Nest Village, also known as Widow's Village, from the wonder of the Golden Silk Black Nest to Jinming Specialty Food Co., Ltd., which has now contracted the monopoly of bird's nest breeding and sales on the island's peaks.

Yong Bowen saw that the old man seemed to be quite familiar with the people in several villages on the island, so he asked him again. Old Chen Tou thought sideways for a while and said, "I've never heard of a family surnamed Ai on this island. Yong Bowen couldn't help but be disappointed, and heard Lao Chen Tou say: "I have lived on this island all my life, and everyone in every household basically recognizes it, and I haven't heard of this surname Ai, and I haven't heard anyone say that someone has moved to the island recently, but some people don't know what the name of the family is......" Yong Bowen's heart moved, and described the appearance of the aunt of the Ai family. Lao Chen smacked his lips after hearing this, and muttered: "I said that this appearance seems to have been seen, and I can't remember it for a while, this person is old, and his memory is not good, so I have to let me think about it slowly, it's weird, just my memory, if I always see it, I can't get up without Taoist ideals, it should be uncommon, but I must have seen it......" only made Yong Bowen so anxious that he scratched his liver, and he couldn't wait to get a talisman to stick it on the old head to help him improve his memory.

Until the end of the meal, Lao Chen didn't think about it, only said that he would think about it in the evening, and if he could remember it tomorrow morning, he would sue them.

Back in the room, Liu Zhiyong Bowen, who had not spoken, had a sad face, and said with a smile: "Brother, don't worry, tomorrow morning, the old man will be able to remember." Yong Bowen was a little surprised. Liu Yi said: "This old man's eyes are poisonous, he must see that we are not ordinary tourists but go to the island to find someone to do something, he is holding back and wants to inquire about money!" Yong Bowen couldn't help but complain: "Brother Liu, since you can see it, why don't you remind me, won't it be over if you give him money?" Liu Yi waved his hand and said: "We are not bad for one night, hold him for a while first, so as to save him from opening his mouth and asking for the price." Yong Bowen patted his leg and said, "Is there still a few little bucks missing?" "It's a bit of a rich smell. Liu Yi said: "It's not a bad money, it's an errand, you can't let people be wronged!" Actually, you should have told me about the appearance of the Ai family's aunt early in the morning, maybe you would have inquired about it a long time ago. If he still doesn't say anything tomorrow morning, then go ask someone else! ”

As the two were talking, they suddenly heard a knock on the door, and when they answered, they saw Lao Chen Tou walking in with two candles, and said, "Two gentlemen, we often have power outages here at night, give you two candles, in case of power outage, bring them to light." Yong Bowen stepped forward to take the thanks, Lao Chen turned around and walked out, walked a few steps and stopped, and said with some hesitation: "Two gentlemen, the sea is stormy at night, and there is no light, if there is nothing to do, it is best not to go outside, in case something happens, it will be bad." After thinking about it, he added: "We have a lot of holes in the mountains here, and the sea breeze is strong, and when it blows, there is always a strange movement, if you hear it, don't be afraid, don't go out to see, stay in the room, and wait until dawn, there will be no movement." After a few more words, he left the room.

I'm thankful for the dividing line*****************************

Thank you for the endless tips.
