Chapter 290: The Story of Ten Years Ago
A machine spirit is better off than a human.
The people of the Southern Regions seem to have a harder time than people in other places. Yun Ci didn't know if it had always been like this, or if he was getting poorer and poorer after the incident thirty years ago.
Is this the consequence of the monks' rebellion bringing to ordinary people?
Yun Ci fell into deep thought.
The three of them were taken to the captain's house, which looked better than the one next to them. But it's just a little better, the house is very spacious, mainly without any furnishings.
A table of eight immortals is placed in the center, and four stools surround the table. Yun Ci and the others were allowed to take their seats, and the captain left a few more people to sit with them, and also coaxed the others to leave.
At this time, the hostess had already brought tea to entertain the guests. She had heard that the two gods had saved the people of their village who had gone out to fish.
Yun Ci and the others also came to inquire about something useful.
After all, the sharp-billed fish do not live in shallow waters, but they do not move closer to the coast.
Jiang Yu has already asked.
"How could a big fish with a sharp beak appear in such a place?
The land of the sea is inhabited, and the sea must always eat the sea. The imperial court would arrange for the monks of the monks' exchange to intervene to create an area where the fishermen could move safely.
That's why fishing boats are operating in that area. Because if you go any farther, you will cross the line, and you will not dare to go.
The captain sighed: "It's okay, it's just that every time the immortal master comes now, he only sets some basic boundaries." It only hinders the ship from going out, and does not restrict things from the sea from coming this way. ”
Yun Ci frowned when he heard this, who was so bold as to put the fishermen on this coast in danger.
The monks are trying to keep the people safe, are they unwilling to do it or can't do it?
I only heard the captain continue: "The fish fry sprinkled in the sea have become the rations of those fish outside the boundary. Our days are getting harder and harder. ”
A few of you in the room also chimed in.
"That immortal master was also sent down by us after asking for a long time. ”
"Yes, if you come, you don't say anything, you have to collect your property first. ”
"The fish is not enough to make a living, and I have to give gifts to the immortals who come. According to me, I don't want the Rausch barrier this year. Let's go out and catch fish to fill our wives and children. ”
"Little crab, don't talk nonsense!" the captain whispered to the young man who spoke.
The little crab opened his mouth and lowered his head under the cold gaze of the captain. But Yun Ci still found that he pouted, looking very unconvinced.
Don't have a barrier, out of bounds, it's hard to say whether you can live or not.
The captain looked at the indifferent appearance of the two people, so he had to explain himself.
Yun Ci and Jiang Yu are not stupid, this singing is harmonious. They don't answer randomly, and their curiosity is unacceptable.
"The dolls are young and vigorous, and they ask the two immortals to forgive me if they say something inappropriate. ”
The corners of Jiang Yu's mouth hooked, and he smiled slightly: "It's not in the way." ”
"Is it the same with daily fishing?" Yun Ci led the conversation to the original topic.
The captain nodded: "Yes, even if there is no sharp-beaked fish, there are similar things next to it." If you're lucky, you'll get something and you'll be able to return safely, but if you're unlucky, you'll feed all the stuff. If you don't get it right, you won't even die. ”
Yun Ci was silent and didn't speak, and Jiang Yu didn't know what he was thinking.
"Was it the same before?" Yun Ci saw that he was silent for a while, and asked the captain.
The captain blurted out: "No, it wasn't like this before! In the past, even in our fishing area, every family could have enough to eat!"
"When did it start?" Jiang Yu had already come back to his senses and asked for Yun Ci.
The captain frowned slightly, and tried to think about it: "It seems like eight or nine years ago." ”
"No, brother, I remember my dad said it started ten years ago. A man who was a little younger than the captain corrected the captain's words.
"...... 10 years ago"
It doesn't seem to be the one in Kyoto who doesn't like the southern regions.
How could this be the case for no reason?
"Yes, ten years ago. ”
"I did the math, and it was about that time. ”
People talked in a whisper, although the voice was very small, but Yun Ci and Jiang Yu naturally heard it clearly.
"Did anything strange happen ten years ago?" Jiang Yu raised his eyebrows and asked these people.
So the group began to frown and think about it.
"Ten years ago, there was a time when the sea was particularly unstable. The captain thought for a long time before he spit out a sentence. It was a bitter year, and he almost forgot it.
Jiang Yu and Yun Ci looked at the captain in unison. I saw him fall into memory, talking in his mouth, but his eyes didn't know where to look.
"Yes, I also remembered what my brother said. At that time, I was young, and my mother kept me from going out every day. Passerby A spoke.
"During that time, everyone thought that the Sea Dragon King was about to make a big flood. The sea and water flashed and thundered, and it did not stop for three days. The captain didn't know where to find a cigarette gun, lit a cigarette and slowly talked about the events of that year.
"Later, the rain stopped and the thunder was gone. But the wind began to blow again, and the wind swept up the thatch on the houses in the village. During that time, it was like this everywhere in the neighborhood, and it was dark. It took more than ten days like this before the sea quieted down.
Naturally, quite a few people died at that time. The dried fish stored at home were eaten cleanly. The wind brings water, and it is damp all day long. The fire could not be lit, and it was a bitter time. ”
Passerby B also experienced that year, and his eyes turned red when he listened: "Fortunately, the wind can always recede at night." The ground is full of things brought by the sea, otherwise it would not have survived with only dried fish and food. ”
But not every family can see it, so there are people with bad minds who have bad ideas. ”
The captain knocked on the table with his cigarette stick, making a sound of "Bang, Bang, Bang". It's not pleasant to think about that year.
"At that time, my father was the captain, and it took him a few ill-intentioned people to shock the others. ”
Passerby A wiped his eyes: "No, I only think about it now, it seems that when the water surface calms down, there will be more of those evil fish." ”
The captain stopped this painful memory: "Two immortals, but what happened wrong ten years ago?"
"I don't know, the two immortals are willing to help our fishing village?" The captain saw that the two of them did not answer, so he simply asked what he wanted to ask in his heart.
Jiang Yu smiled: "How can we know about what happened ten years ago." As if knowing what the captain was going to say, Jiang Yu continued, "We can't know the past and the present, you don't know, how can we know?"
Xiao Crab was a little unhappy, ten years ago he was a half-old child. It's true to have memories, but more fear than anything else. It's still painful to talk about it now.
Aren't these two immortals?
Why are you so silent when it comes to helping?
There is no difference between immortals and people, they are all deliberately hanging everyone's appetite for benefits!
