The Legend of the Ama 2
"No one? How could there be no one? The team leader teacher was excited, rubbing his hairless head and muttering, "How can there be no one?" They told me they were there. ”
The village chief, who had been behind his ears, didn't know if it was a coincidence or something at this time, but he heard it clearly, and his face was red with anger and his neck was thick, "If there is no one, there is no one, we still need to lie to you?" ”
"No, that's not what I meant." The teacher who led the team apologized again and again, and his face was red and white for a while, obviously, this unexpected answer made him a little overwhelmed.
And at this time, a person stood out in the team, that person had thick eyebrows and big eyes, looked very square, and spoke unusually low and infectious, he said to the village chief: "Village chief, we didn't say that this matter has anything to do with you, it's just that you have also seen it, we have encountered a problem, and now it is still raining around, and we can't leave, can we be cheeky to live in your village for two days?" ”
Su Man looked up at the man who spoke, she remembered the name in her memory, his name was Yan Chao, but I don't know if it was really that coincidental.
"What? Still want to get bark? No, who the hell are you? The village chief's ears flare-up again, and the woman on the side nodded, "Okay, you can stay for as long as you want, we welcome it." ”
But after saying this, she said: "But if you live here for a long time, you have to pay for accommodation, we invite you to eat one or two meals, if you eat like this every day, you also know, we only rely on fishing, and no one can stand to eat so much more." ”
She said it reasonably, and no one would refuse.
Everyone pooled the money on their bodies, and gave it all to the woman to let her arrange, and those who didn't have cash on them also used some things they brought with them to deduct it.
There were ten teachers in their group, and one family would definitely not be able to entertain so many people, so they divided into three families according to the division of three, three, and four.
The four-person group with the teacher lived in the village chief's house, and the remaining three or three groups lived in two houses near the village chief.
It is worth mentioning that when he was grouped, Yan Chao pointed at Su Man and deliberately wanted to be in a group with her, and it happened that Su Man also wanted to see what kind of medicine he was selling in his gourd, so he agreed.
The family they went to was a little special, and compared with the other sunny and harmonious fishermen, the family they lived in looked much more gloomy, in stark contrast to the hospitable fishermen around them.
The attitude towards the three of them is also very indifferent, and they can't speak if they can't speak, and they don't wonder at all where they came from or what they are here for.
I didn't deduct them from eating, a lunch, salted fish, stewed fish, boiled shrimp, the whole was particularly hearty.
Su Man, Yan Chao and another three people named Gu Quanming sat at the dinner table, and the family, two adults, a man and a woman and two children, stood behind them, staring straight at them to eat, without saying a word.
"You can eat it." Gu Quanming's voice was weak, poking the white rice in the bowl, like a mang on his back, and Su Man, who was sitting opposite him, picked up shrimp one shrimp after another in his hand and sent it to his mouth, and he didn't stop.
"Why can't you eat it?" Su Man's voice was not small at all, and he even said to the family standing behind: "It's delicious, and the craftsmanship is very good." "Anyway, she had already found a few resurrection cards before coming to this big fish village, so she wasn't afraid at all.
Gu Quanming couldn't wait to bury herself in the ground, what was she talking so loudly for? Didn't she think the family behind her was strange?
"Yan Chao, why don't you stop her!" He couldn't stop Su Man, and he blamed Yan Chao depressedly in his heart.
But in a blink of an eye, Yan Chao also ate shrimp! even echoed Su Man's praise for the family's good craftsmanship.
He rolled his eyes, irritable, is he the only one at this table who is vigilant?
Seeing that the two of them were eating shrimp so fragrant, he couldn't help but smack his lips, those two people were okay to eat, he should be okay to eat, right?
Grinding, his hand slowly stretched out to the plate of boiled shrimp, but just as he was about to pull a shrimp whisker to pull the shrimp to him, a family member who had been standing behind him who had been silent suddenly answered, "You just eat well..."
The thick and simple man's voice frightened him, and he didn't even want shrimp, ahhh
The man's voice became smaller and smaller, and finally he was silenced, and looked at Su Man and Yan Chao with inquiring and worried eyes, "What's wrong with him?" ”
"It's sick." It was Suman who said it.
"He's scared." It was Yan Chao who said.
The two spoke almost in unison.
Gu Quanming, who got under the table, also reacted at this time, there was no danger! But he didn't have a face to get out now, his face was flushed, so he simply put quail underneath and made him feel safe under the table.
The man didn't ask why the answers given by the two people were different, but sighed with a sad face, "If you live in someone else's house, maybe you will have the sea lady to take care of you, what kind of disease or something, I can treat you by talking to the sea girl, but now that you live in my house, I'm afraid you won't have that opportunity." ”
Su Man had an inside story when he heard it, and beckoned the male owner to sit down and eat while talking, but the male owner still said the same thing, "You can just eat, I won't serve the table, you are giving money, we don't eat well, we can't let your experience be bad." ”
When Yan Chao heard this, he reproduced the set when they entered the door again, and very politely pulled the man to sit down and said, saying that he didn't dislike or dislike it, and the man kept refusing it, even if he was pressed on the chair by Yan Chao, he quickly stood up as if he had a needle prick.
While the two were pulling, Su Man ran out of patience, "If this uncle doesn't want to sit, he won't sit, don't force others." ”
"It's not forced!" Yan Chao disagreed with what she said, "This is etiquette, and people's own homes are very uncomfortable with us..."
"Etiquette fart." Su Man interrupted him very unceremoniously: "I can't get used to it, you stand with him." ”
Maybe it was the contrast of etiquette that shocked Yan Chao, or maybe it was the latter sentence that shocked him, he looked at her for a while and didn't speak.
On the other hand, the male host on the side was not angry at all, and broke away from the banquet as if he was relieved, "I really, just stand here." ”
Su Man ignored Yan Chao at all, turned his head and asked the male host, "What is the matter with the sea lady you are talking about?" ”
"The ama are the gods who can grant our wishes, but our family is a family abandoned by the gods." The man's face was bitter: "I don't think our family has done anything hurtful, but you say, why doesn't the sea lady like us?" ”
Su Man couldn't answer this question, "Then you said that you didn't do anything hurtful, then I asked you something, you have to tell the truth." ”
"You ask."
"Has anyone come to your village?"
A hint of struggle flashed on the man's face, and finally he spoke, "That day, in fact, I vaguely seemed to see someone coming. ”
But the next second, he changed his words again, "It was very foggy that day, and I couldn't really see it, so they disappeared into the sea at once." ”
