Chapter 1714:
Mr. Le was led by Mr. Yi to admire the unique architecture of Guanyin Hall, so it took more than forty minutes to get out of the fishing town and out of Calabash Neck.
After bypassing the gently sloping valley, a clear view suddenly opened up. I saw a beach surrounded by rock ridges, and the terrain gradually rose from the sea to the mountain.
There are several rocks exposed on the surface of the shallow sea. To the southwest is the mouth of a river from Hulu Town. There is also a trestle to the sea in the west, and fishermen's boats are moored in the sea.
Because it is a bay surrounded by mountains, the beach is beautifully curved. There is also a deserted beach area between the rocks and the beach, with coconut trees and tropical plants growing there.
The slope of the beach rising toward the mountain is not large. If it is the typhoon season or during the high tide every autumn, huge waves will hit the deserted beach, so the bay is uninhabited.
There are no residents in the bay, but there are two temples at the foot of the mountain on the northeast side - the Poseidon Temple and the Temple of Wealth.
The sun shines on the beach, sea surface and plants. There are seabirds flying freely, the wind blows freely, and the sea water ripples with the wind.
Seeing the sea for the first time, Leshan stared at the beach and the endless sea in amazement, unable to take his eyes away.
Compared with the sea in Dongchen Continent, the sea in Qiongdao is mild. Leyun didn't feel much emotion when she saw the sea facing Qiongdao, so she took her younger brother to worship at the temple first.
The little girl understands common sense, does as the local customs do, and respects the local beliefs. The old man is even more happy, leading the way along the natural road from the fishing town to the temple.
After walking for about a mile and a half, we arrived in front of the Poseidon Empress Temple.
The Poseidon Goddess Temple and the Temple of Wealth are both built of stone, with blue-gray stone walls and red tiles.
The temple is not big, a single-story building with colonnades, cornices and wind beasts on the eaves. There is a floor in front of the temple, which is also a sacrificial platform.
The temple door is closed, but the lock is not closed, so that people can enter the temple to pay homage at any time.
Mr. Yi took off the lock and pushed open the two heavy doors.
The temple is very wide. There is a statue of the Goddess of Poseidon at the end of the room opposite the door. The Goddess of Poseidon is sitting on the altar. On both sides, there are boys and girls holding treasure banners and wind beads. There is an offering table in front of it, covered with a disposable tablecloth
. , there is an incense burner in the middle, a candlestick at each end, a fire bowl for burning paper in front of the altar, and three tufts placed on the ground facing the statue.
The statues, tables and floors are all kept clean. Because there are lattice lighting windows in the front and back of the temple, the light shines into the temple from the outside. It is bright and bright, without any sense of gloom and depression.
The temple door opened. Le Yun put her brother down on the ground, held his little hand and entered the temple. She walked to the statue of the God of Poseidon in an orderly manner, took out the incense, money, paper money, and lighter from her backpack, lit the incense, and gave her brother a stick of incense. Take a stick of incense yourself and offer incense to the Goddess of the Sea.
First bow three times and then put the incense into the incense burner.
Leshan was short and couldn't reach it, so Leyun picked up her brother and asked him to put the incense in her hands. Then she put him down, and then she and her brother knelt on the tuanfu, twisted the paper, and burned it.
After burning the paper money, I bowed down to the God of Poseidon.
Le Yun herself is afraid of deep water, and has an inexplicable fear and fear of rivers, lakes and the sea. Naturally, she also has special respect for the water god.
My younger brother has worshiped in the Guanyin Hall. He may often travel to and from Qiongdao in the future, and he will definitely interact with water. Therefore, I hope that my younger brother will be safe no matter where he is in the water.
Because there was someone he valued in his heart, Leyun worshiped the Poseidon with great piety.
Leshan followed her sister in worshiping God, and kowtowed three times respectfully.
Although the little girl from the Le family is sometimes sharp-tongued and can make people jump with anger, she is really hard to find fault with in terms of respecting teachers, respecting education, and respecting customs. Mr. Yi stood beside him, thinking that he had snatched his apprentice. I am very happy for my son's action.
It is said that heroes do not care about their origins, but choosing a disciple is the same as choosing a son-in-law and a daughter-in-law. Marrying the right wife will bring blessings to three generations, and the same goes for choosing a disciple. Choosing the right disciple will bring blessings to several generations. If you choose the wrong one, you may be Disaster affects the entire clan.
The most worry-free thing about a family with a good family tradition is that its children have been influenced by the good family tradition through words and deeds from their elders since childhood. They are simple-minded and have no frivolous behavior.
Mr. Yi was extremely lucky that he acted quickly and forcibly accepted his young disciple as his disciple. So, now that he has a good disciple, he doesn't have to worry about it so hard. How happy he is!
For the sake of safety, Leyun guarded the embers of the paper-burning fire and waited until it was completely extinguished before she stood up, picked up her brother, and left with the old man.
After leaving the Poseidon Empress Temple, Mr. Yi closed the temple door and went to worship at the Temple of Wealth.
The God of Wealth Treasury is the same size as the Temple of the Goddess of the Sea. The altar in the temple has two floors. The upper floor houses the God of Wealth and the boy who distributes wealth. Below the altar, there is the Earth Goddess.
With a pious heart, Le Yun took her younger brother to worship the God of Wealth and the God of Earth. After worshiping, she still waited for the embers of the paper money to extinguish before leaving.
The three of them went straight to the beach.
After crossing the deserted beach and reaching the beach, Le Xiaoxiao let his brother down and let him explore the world freely.
Le Shan, who is full of curiosity about the sea and the beach, cheers and runs and jumps on the beach, stepping on the soft sand and jumping around for a while, playing happily in the sand.
The old ant curiously ran to see his little disciple playing and found the little kid digging a sand pit. He couldn't help but ask a hundred thousand whys: "Leshan, what are you digging?" "
Shi Hu, I'm looking for shells." Leshan Digging the sand with his little paws, he answered seriously.
"..., who taught Leshan to find shells like this?" Mr. Yi was silent for two seconds before continuing to ask. Knowing who dared to teach his young disciple randomly, he had to find someone to explain it to him.
"No one taught me, this is how it is played on TV," Leshan blinked his big, clever eyes and patiently explained to his master: "People on TV can always dig out edible shells at the beach stalls. Fish, I'll try it too. I'll dig up a few shells and take them home for dinner."
"Oh, my silly apprentice!" After hearing the explanation, Mr. Yi laughed so hard that he could hardly close his mouth and picked up Tianzhen. The little disciple turned around in a circle and kissed the little disciple fiercely on the face.
The little disciple is so cute!
I saw someone digging up shells on the beach on TV, and he actually followed suit. He was a little silly, but he was so cute and cute.
The old man was so cute that his heart melted, he kissed his little disciple, looked at the little guy's dazed look, and laughed happily.
After having enough joy, he touched his little disciple's little head and explained to him: "Leshan, it is true that digging for shells on the beach in the TV show is true. However, not every beach can dig shells. You can dig up shells anywhere you want..."
Mr. Ant finally found his place as a hero. He walked toward the sea with his little disciple in his arms, while explaining to his cute little disciple the habits of seafood creatures and analyzing what kind of shells would Drilling in the sand, how can you tell what the hole might be based on the shape of the hole?
Mr. Yi was taking a knowledge class, and he was enjoying himself as a melon-eater. He walked with Mr. Yi to the wet beach connected to the sea and looked at the sea in the distance.
When they arrived at the waterfront, Old Yi put his young disciple down on the ground, fearing that he would sink into the sand and get his shoes wet. He bent down and put his hands under his armpits to support his young disciple.
The little guy, who is curious about the ocean, happily walks on the soft and moist water beach, looking for caves with any marine life.
It was not the time of high tide, so no marine animals were washed ashore by the waves, so naturally there was no seafood to be found on the beach.
Leshan let herself go and had fun along the beach near the water. After searching for about 200 meters, she couldn't find anything. She coquettishly told the master that she wanted to find shells.
Being relied upon by his little disciple, the old man willingly bowed his head and became a coward. He sat with his little disciple on his neck, flew to an area with rocks, jumped to a big rock, and then took his little disciple to look for seafood.
The master and the apprentice searched around the reef, but found no shells, so they moved to another place.
Classmate Le Xiao was willing to be a green leaf and follow behind as a bodyguard to prevent his younger brother from losing his footing and falling from the rocks into the sea.
The master and apprentice had a great time, jumping around on the rocks like an old monkey leading a little monkey. The little baby's laughter was filled with sweet happiness, and the old man's laughter was loud and bright.
Xiao Mimi, a classmate from Le Xiao Mimi, accompanied the old and the young to have fun. Her younger brother was quiet and well-behaved at home. He was not interested in mud and other games that ordinary children of the same age like to play, but he was very interested in activities that were full of observation and practicality. Strong sense of exploration.
Therefore, when my baby brother goes to the beach, he can look for shells and gain knowledge. He is very interested and has the courage to explore and learn.
Mr. Yi rarely abducts his little disciple to play. When he goes to the beach, he can enjoy the fun with his little disciple. Little Le is also happy to watch the old and the young get along so intimately.
The master and the apprentice searched for one rock after another until they found the fourth rock, and finally found the shell attached to the rock - the oyster.
There are several oysters stuck around a pile of rocks, some large and some small.
The old ant took his young disciple to pick oysters. He first picked all the oysters off the rocks, put them together, and then threw the small ones into the sea, leaving only two big ones.
After finding two shells, Leshan grabbed one with each hand. He couldn't stop laughing. He was so happy that he turned over and over to study and observe. His little mouth kept spitting out a hundred thousand whys. For example, why do shells stick to stones? Why do they stick to rocks? It has patterns, why is the shell so hard...
The little disciple asked curious questions, and the old ant answered all the questions. If he couldn't answer - well, of course he left it to the little girl, the little girl from the Le family is a top student. Come on, he can't answer and let the little girl come on.
Le Yun, who was being used as a spare tire: "..." What could she say? Don't say anything other than cooperation, as long as they are happy.
She was really a very competent spare tire. When her younger brother had enough fun, she found a bag to put the oysters in and helped carry it while her younger brother and the childlike Mr. Ant continued to take their apprentice to find shells.
The master and apprentice happily searched for treasures, searching the rocks in the seawater in an area, and then searching for the rocks on the shore. In addition to oysters, they also found conches and scallops, all of which were large and small.
The two masters and apprentices had such a great time that they did not call back their troops until the sun was about to set over the sea. The total amount of seashells weighed three to four kilograms.
The sun is going down and the evening tide is coming.
Mr. Yi took his young disciple and flew to the shore reef where the waves could not reach to watch the sunset, watch the tide, and appreciate the magical power of nature.
When the tide is high, the waves first gently touch the beach and reef shores. As the sun sets towards the horizon, the waves surge more rapidly. The waves rush onto the beach or hit the rocks, then recede, then come back again, and the cycle begins again and again.
Watching the tide for the first time, Leshan was dumbfounded. He waved his little arms excitedly and recited "Guan Cang Sea" loudly - "Land the Jieshi to the east to view the sea..." The childish voice echoed with the waves
. The sound of the shore, the chirping of seabirds, and the whirring of the vegetation in the evening wind all echo and echo in a continuous and melodious way.
An old man and a young man who were listening looked at each other with smiles in their eyes.
The sea breeze was strong in the evening and the temperature dropped sharply. Le Xiao and Mr. Yi did not wait for the sun to set over the sea before taking Le Shan back to Hulu Town.
