The first thing I do when I get up early in the morning is to light incense for the stove mother, and I also have to light it at the door, and set off firecrackers after lighting it.

A group of children covered their ears, and when the crackling firecrackers were over, they all gathered around and excitedly called the third uncle, he knew what they wanted to do with his buttocks.

"As soon as I pouted my ass, I knew what you wanted to do, it just so happened that I really won money last night, come on, come on, line up for me, two cents per person."

"Wowha~Third Uncle is so good~"

"Hurry up... Hurry up..."

After one person received two cents, they were so happy that they flew up and could buy a lot of firecrackers.

Then they began to look all over the ground for the small firecrackers that had not just gone off.

"What are you looking for, it's not enough for you to buy?"

"You can't waste it, if you don't finish it, you can pick it up and keep putting it!"

After a while, there were several small firecrackers in their hands, and they all happily said that they were going to the beach to set them off and blow up the water.

I don't know if it's the reason for the wind at night, but early in the morning, I feel that the waves are a little big, and the weather is a little gloomy, and the wind on the shore is a little strong.

In the past month, there have only been a few days of rainy weather, most of which are sunny days, but today the first day of the new year has been cloudy, and the weather is not beautiful.

Ye Yaodong thought that he hadn't eaten breakfast before he had breakfast anyway, and he couldn't go to play cards early in the morning, so he walked to the shore with them, watching them throw firecrackers into the sea one by one, and from time to time they exploded small splashes, and some of them made no sound.

After three or two clicks, after putting the small firecrackers in his hand, he felt that it was not enjoyable, and felt that the 2 cents in his pocket that had not yet been covered were hot, and he ran to the village again, to buy firecrackers.

Ye Yaodong continued to squat on the shore when he was idle, watching the tide reced, and picked up a few flat stones to float.

After several consecutive shots, he heard his wife shouting at the door to eat, so he had to throw away the stones in his hands and clap his hands.

Just as he was about to turn around, out of the corner of his eye, he saw that there seemed to be something unusual on the sea in the distance, with a few more white tentacles dancing, but he stopped all of a sudden, and after a while he began to move again.

He looked at it and felt a little strange, how could the tentacles be so far away that he could still see clearly?

There must be a demon when things go wrong, and he is not in a hurry to go back, and continues to stare at the sea, but the tide recedes a little slowly, and it is a little difficult to wait.

Lin Xiuqing found that she couldn't call him, so she walked over, "What are you doing? I told you to eat and didn't move for a long time, and you are still watching here, what are you watching? What about the two children?"

"I'm going to buy firecrackers with a few of them, I guess I won't be able to come back, I'm stuck halfway, and I'll eat it when it's cold."

"And what are you doing here? Isn't it a low tide? It's going to be eleven or twelve o'clock when you go down, and you'll have to wait until noon if you want to go down." She wondered.

"No, look in the distance, is there something like a whip dancing and hitting the water?"

Lin Xiuqing raised his eyes and saw that it really looked like a whip was dancing wildly, but the movements were a little slow.

"What's that?"

"I don't know, the big guy is for sure, I just don't know if it will run aground after the tide goes down."

In the sea, there are still moving living creatures, it must be a big guy, don't even think about it, and today is the first day of the new year, and it is normal to have a big tide.

The more he thought about it, the more excited he became, it was really a person sitting at home, and the money came from the sky, and he only occasionally went to collect a cage for most of the month, and there was no serious net, and he was so strong that the good goods were automatically sent to the door.

It's really lucky, I can't stop it.

Lin Xiuqing was also excited after hearing him say that he was a big guy, "Really? Will it be a big deal? But looking at those whip-like ones, they should be tentacles, right? Looking at the old man's appearance, he can see it from such a distance, so how big is it?"

"I didn't see the appearance, it's hard to guess, but it's definitely very big, and it looks like an octopus with antennae, but I've never seen it that big, it's a little strange."

"Octopus? It's really quite similar, but the tentacles are a little thicker."

"Isn't it big enough to have thick tentacles? It's still last night's New Year's Eve cannon auspicious, and today you will directly send me a big product."

"Outside, I don't know what to do, what nonsense?" Lin Xiuqing glared at him angrily, "Then you take your time here, I'll get the child back for dinner first."

"Go, go, I'll watch here."

The position was also quite awkward, the boat couldn't drive through, the tide was receding, and the water level was too shallow. Swim over, it's too cold, so I can only dry on the shore and wait for the tide to recede.

Fortunately, the weather is a little cloudy on the first day of the new year, there is no sun, women are busy cooking, children are busy setting off firecrackers, men are busy playing cards, and no one runs to the beach early in the morning to blow the cold wind, and even a few children in their family go out to buy firecrackers and can't come back.

Ye Yaodong has been squatting on the beach in a daze, smoking while looking at the sea, watching the tide recede little by little, but the big guy is still swinging in that position, not moving forward with the tide, and the people watching are a little helpless.

But fortunately, on the first day of the new year, the tide can recede to the end, and if you retreat more than 100 or 200 meters, it is estimated that it should be, and it is almost not far away, but it is a little difficult to wait.

As soon as he flicked the cigarette ash off his hand, he was tapped on the shoulder.

"I'll bring you the food."

"Good wife, so sensible!" He laughed and snuffed out the half-smoked cigarette in his hand and took the large bowl she handed him.

"It's windy on the beach, would you like to get you a hat to wear?"

"It's okay, you go in first, don't blow a cold."

"Then do you want to go in and wait?" The tide doesn't go down so quickly, and the cold wind blows here for a few hours."

"I know, I'll watch for a while, you go in first." Look at the safety here, if you don't see it in the blink of an eye, someone else will take the lead, then he has to pat his thigh and regret it.

Lin Xiuqing had no choice but to go in first, and the two children were still eating by themselves, and they didn't know if they were eating properly.

Ye Yaodong kept an eye on the sea while eating, and after pulling a whole bowl of porridge into it, he quickly took the bowl into the house first.

When Lin Xiuqing saw him enter the house, he hurriedly put on a hat and tied a scarf for him, "For the New Year, don't catch a cold, it's unlucky, wrap it up like this to warm up."

He put his arms around her waist, which was now a little thick, and kissed her rosy face with a smile, "It's okay, I'm used to blowing at sea, where is it so easy to catch a cold."

"Dad, shame face ~ stealing relatives ~ shameless ~ "

"Shame face ~ shame face ~ "

Ye Chengyang also learned his brother's words, and then stretched out his index finger to scrape his face.

Lin Xiuqing was also a little embarrassed in front of the two children, glared at him with disgust, and said in a soft voice: "I don't know how to restrain myself in front of the children, don't take them badly, the children don't talk nonsense if they don't put the door on their mouths, how embarrassing."

Ye Yaodong immediately squinted at the two sons beside him, and without waiting for him to warn, Ye Chenghu said very coloredly: "I didn't tell others, my father stole my mother!" I didn't tell anyone else, my father shamelessly hugged my mother to sleep every day."

Ye Chengyang also nodded beside him, "Me didn't either!"

He directly ignored his eldest son's scolding him for being shameless, "Well, you can brag as much as you like, but you are not allowed to talk about the affairs of the family, especially the affairs of your father, you know?"

Two people at the same head.

Ye Yaodong patted his two heads and walked out, seeing that there was no one around the shore, he was relieved, as long as he was not noticed.

He was about to walk towards the shore, but after thinking about it, he stopped again and walked towards his eldest brother's second brother's house.

If it's really a big guy, he can't do it alone, he has to call his two brothers to help together, the fat and water don't flow into the fields of outsiders, and the three of them are next to each other, and he can't eat alone with the goods in front of him.

knocked on the window of his second brother's house first, and without waiting for his second brother's reaction, he immediately knocked on the window of his eldest brother's house, and then waited at the door.

Ye Yaopeng and Ye Yaohua were a little puzzled, and they both shouted in their respective rooms

In a word, what are you doing?

Seeing that Ye Yaodong didn't respond, the two of them came out with a bowl and took a look, "What's wrong Dongzi, why don't you just knock on the window without squeaking?" What's the matter?"

"yes, why don't you go in and say it?"

"Hurry up and eat, eat and come with me to the shore, I just saw a little different on the sea."

"Huh? Is there another red tide?" Brother Ye craned his neck to look at the sea, "The sea doesn't seem to have changed?"

Second Brother Ye didn't care about eating, so he stood on tiptoe and stretched his neck, "I can't see it, is it going to be night to see the changes?"

"If you look closely, don't you see anything different?"

"No, what's that thing at sea? Seems to move?"

"It's like a whip, flick and flick."

"You eat first, and I'll go to the shore and watch first." After speaking, Ye Yaodong raised his feet and walked to the shore.

Brother Ye and Second Brother Ye didn't care about eating slowly at this time, so he took two bites casually, poured the remaining porridge into his mouth, and quickly took the bowl in, and his cheeks were bulging and he didn't swallow it, so he hurriedly followed.

"Dongzi, when did you find out?"

"Just before breakfast, I accompanied a few children to the shore to set off firecrackers, at first the sea did not move, and after a while I saw something swinging there, it seemed that it should be some big goods, so I didn't dare to leave, but I couldn't see what it was for a while."

The three brothers stood in a row on the shore, looking into the distance together, discussing with each other.

"I look a little like an octopus's whiskers!"

"I think so, too, I can't imagine anything other than an octopus with such long tentacles."

"It's possible for the king squid, too."

Ye Yaodong touched his chin, both are possible, there are giant octopuses and king squid in this world, and the tentacles waving on the sea are quite in line with these two creatures, but they can't be identified if they don't see them up close.
