Chapter 870: Circling the Sea
The eel did not dare to squeak, and hid in the inner bend of a hunchbacked yin soul and blended into the palace of the wheel king, and the hunchbacked yin spirit walked to the large square table where the wheel king issued the reincarnation post, and the eel yin suddenly jumped out, turned over and wagked his tail under the nose of the wheel king, and said "Great king, I am bowing to you, begging you to allow me to give birth to my body."
The Wheel King was about to send a reincarnation post to the hunchbacked yin spirit, and when he saw the eel, he suddenly remembered that it had been beaten into the quadruped list, why did it escape again? Then he yelled: Bold, you still don't go back to give birth to a quadruped? Otherwise, this king will tell you to suffer the pain of being steamed again next time in the soup and hell.
The eel argued: I want to avenge my mother, and my mother and many of her unborn eels were steamed to death by that old mother. The Wheel King had no intention of listening to it, saying that he knew all about it. Then he stood up and said sharply: You have to be reincarnated for many lifetimes in the animal path before you have the hope of reincarnation.
The eel was dissatisfied, and jumped violently. The Wheel King was furious, and with a wave of his sleeves, the eel ghost disappeared.
It had been thrown into the quadruped animal again, but its soul had disappeared and had become a crocodile, which was choked by the ghost and thrown towards the sea.
At this moment, there happened to be a pair of crocodiles in the sea in the lingering joy of the gentle face, and it turned out to be the fetus in the womb of a female crocodile.
Soon it was born, swimming in the sea, and it was relatively safe to follow its mother crocodile. That time it followed its mother to a shallow water to lie down in the sun, and then slowly fell asleep, and was almost trampled to death by a reckless hippopotamus that counted as a behemoth, but it was the mother who saved it, and the mother was very shrewd, and opened her bloody mouth to meet the approaching hippopotamus. The hippopotamus is frightened and turns around and dives into the water.
After a few weeks, the little crocodile grew up, and it gradually turned into a bloody hunting career, and there were turtles, seahorses, sea fish and other small creatures in the sea were devoured by it one by one.
On one occasion, it challenged a seal, which did not seem to be afraid, and used the tactic of avoiding the real and attacking the enemy, going around its tail and biting it with its sharp teeth. The crocodile turned its head in pain to devour the seal, but the seal cleverly bit its tail, and when it swung its body, the seal was always out of reach of the crocodile's head.
There was a splash of water several meters high on the surface of the sea, and it was seen by a fisherman on a wooden boat in the distance, who was of medium stature, fat and about thirty years old. He quickly rowed the boat over, and when he saw the seals fighting the crocodiles, he took a long-handled iron fork and waited for an opportunity to approach them, trying to kill them and hunt a pair. Because seals and crocodiles are valuable animals, they have a lot of market value.
As the seal wrestles with the crocodile, it also spots the fisherman on the wooden boat, which quickly gives up the fight and dives into the water to avoid falling prey to the fishermen.
When the seal left, the crocodile was stunned, it was a little slower than the seal, and it did not notice that the fisherman was rowing near with the wooden boat, and when it raised its neck and looked around with its pebble-like eyes, it found the fisherman standing on the wooden boat, and it wanted to jump up and pounce and eat him. Why do you hate fishermen so much? Because in the past life, it was an eel roe in the belly of an eel, and before it was born, my mother was caught by an old fisherman with a fishing net, and then brought home to be steamed by an old mother. This incident has not been forgotten, and it should have been forgotten, because it died once, and according to the deceased, the soul of the deceased person went to the god Meng Po to drink the soup, and after drinking the soup, he would forget all the things in his previous life. However, the eel is reincarnated in the animal path, and the ghost after death is not qualified to drink a mouthful of the soup, so the things that have been experienced in the previous life are especially impressive.
Now the crocodile hated the man and wanted to eat, but when he saw the fisherman with a fork in his hand, he flinched in fright, and dived under the water like a seal to escape. Otherwise, it will not only be difficult to hurt the fisherman, but on the contrary, it will help the opponent, and once it becomes the fisherman's prey, even the meat and skin will become the capital for his profit.
When the fisherman saw that the seals and crocodiles had absconded, he waited a little longer, and the sea was calm, and they were no longer visible, and he felt a little lost, and put his long-handled iron fork on the sampan, his eyes still roaming the sea.
In an instant, the sea and the sun were slanting to the west, and the sea surface seemed to be plated with a layer of gold, and it was easy to dazzle his eyes when he looked at it, and the fisherman squinted his eyes, still feeling uncomfortable. This discomfort frightened him, if a large shark or a large crocodile suddenly appeared on the bright sea that night, it would be difficult for him to spot, and it would be difficult to spot, and it would be easy to be attacked. So the fisherman took up his iron fork again and gave himself courage, and freed up one hand to rock the oar, and let the wooden boat row on the light sea of the sunset, and slowly rowed into the bay, and took out a basket of fish from the cabin and dropped anchor ashore.
An old man with a white beard, who was waiting on the shore, called him to the navy and asked what he had gained. The Navy put the basket down, said that the harvest was not big, and then told about the encounter between seals and crocodiles, but unfortunately none of them were caught.
It has been more than ten years since then, and there have been changes, the navy used to be thin, now fat, and has a family, the old man's beard has changed from blue and white to completely white, and the forehead lines are denser and deeper. After listening to the words of the navy, the old man sighed and said: Getting a crocodile or a seal is more cost-effective than catching a thousand catties of ordinary fresh seafood. But it's also dangerous, and if you don't get it right, the fisherman will become prey to crocodiles or seals.
Swimming in the sea, the crocodile that preys on small creatures has grown up, and its body has grown from less than one meter to about one meter and a half. The stronger it becomes, the more obedient it becomes, and it absconds at the sight of a large ship on the sea, and it is able to correctly gauge its own abilities, not the opponents of those behemoths. But every time it is like this, it remembers the tragic situation of its mother being hunted by the old man in the past life, so the arrogance of hatred permeates its entire body, and it can't find the old man and swallow it in one bite, so as to avenge the revenge of the next life. But it did not see the old man again, and it seemed to be unable to control it, and made a leap in the sea, and raised a huge wave that was a few feet high, and the huge wave spread out in the air, and fell on the surface of the sea, trembling a small wave.
In fact, this has no effect, the old man can't feel it at all, there is a crocodile looking for revenge, waiting for an opportunity to devour him, this crocodile is just an emotional vent. Then it calmed down, raised its head, and looked at the sea, as if the old man was about to appear, grinding its sharp teeth full of rings, and then cracking at the sky, as if it were fully prepared to eat the old man.
At this time, the old man was also making up his mind how to go out to sea to catch a crocodile or seal. He walked and walked among the crowds of people in the bazaar, walking, walking, and came to the front of a restaurant, where a hot bun that had just come out of the basket was very eye-catching, almost provoking his saliva, and he happened to be hungry, so he asked the seller for 4 hot buns, and sat down at the table of the restaurant to eat. After eating two, a crippled man with a cane approached him, and his bulging eyes almost jumped out as he looked at the hot bun.
The old man had always been merciful to the beggar, let alone a disabled beggar who could not take care of himself, which of course looked disgusting, but the old man's disgust with him was diluted by his kindness, and he looked at the beggar fixedly, and then picked up the other two buns that he was about to eat and handed them to him.
