02 Vision
The vast sea, the dark clouds, from time to time a thick electric snake streaked across the sky, tearing the sky, followed by a deafening rolling thunder to show people the power of nature.
Wave after wave of sea rushed towards the shoreline, lapping on the beach and reef, making a "bang, pop" cry; The wind howled, causing the trees on the shore to bend their waists, "Brush... Brush..."The ground wails in unison; The sky is like a sieve that leaks from the bottom, and the rain rushes into the bosom of the earth like crazy, splashing the mud and sand on the ground, and merging into a dragon of earth and plunging into the sea.
It's like an apocalyptic scene.
Not far from the coastline, a fishing village stands quietly, whipped by nature.
Walking into the village, every house is closed, and people hide in their houses and pray to the sky, waiting for the wind and rain to subside.
In the southeast corner of the house, which is closest to the coastline, white smoke is still emitting from the chimney on the roof, and people can be seen working in the yard in the heavy rain. Pulling the field of vision further, a standard mansion comes into view, with tall walls surrounding the surroundings, resisting the raging winds, blue bricks and blue tiles, withstanding the invasion of rain.
The door of the main house was open, and several maids came and went with wooden basins, which were steaming hot water. In the lobby, three or four sturdy men sat at a square table and chatted, but between words, they felt that several people were absent-minded, and often the bull's head was not at the horse's mouth. The most conspicuous of them was the man sitting in the upper seat, who frequently turned his head to the back room, and the anxious look on his face could not be concealed even by his dark face.
In the hall, on the circle chair next to the offering table, there was also an old woman, her long hair was gray, and a tiger's head of full height was on the ground in her hand. The old woman looked like she was closing her eyes, but her slightly slanted body and her ears fluttered from time to time betrayed her.
Why is the atmosphere in the room so solemn? Just because there was a woman's heart-rending screams in the room on the left side of the main house, and from time to time a woman frequently shouted: "Inhale, exhale, hard!" ”
"Mother, it's been so long, why haven't you come out yet! Listening to this scream, I am really anxious! The black-faced man finally couldn't help it, and looked at the house with a frown, it seemed that if it weren't for the customs, I am afraid he would have broken into the house.
"What are you anxious about? You think it's easy to have a baby! I want to think that when the old lady gave birth to you, from the beginning of the hour to noon, it was called a pain, I really wanted to die on the bed, and finally gave birth to you a rabbit cub. The old woman glanced at the man beside her: "I know the pain of giving birth, I will be better to Sanniang in the future, although Sanniang is not waiting to see you, but for the sake of her giving birth to children for you, you will care more about her in the future!" ”
"Got it, mother, I won't lose Sanniang!" The black-faced man was actually insincere now, and his heart had already been hung in the house one after another.
Suddenly, a teenager ran in from outside the door, shouting with a panicked face: "Master, the tide is about to overflow into the courtyard!" ”
Hearing this, the already anxious man couldn't sit still any longer, jumped up and grabbed the hand of a beautiful man in a long-sleeved green shirt on the side, and asked nervously: "What can I do about this, third brother?" You have to think of a way for the eldest brother!! ”
The man in the green shirt held his beautiful beard on his cheek with his right hand, and replied in a deep voice: "Big brother, don't worry, at this time, the wind and rain outside the house are urgent, and if you go out rashly, it may hurt your sister-in-law and children, it is better to respond to all changes with the same and wait until it really floods here!" ”
Two men in short shirts around were also comforting on the side, and finally calmed down the family.
It wasn't long before the tide rushed into the courtyard, and the gate at the entrance of the courtyard, which seemed to explain it, broke into several pieces under the blow of a wave, and drifted into the lobby with the sea. The sea water in the house also rose to the calves, and a woman's voice came from the house: "Master Li, old lady, the water is almost flooding the bed, this child has not yet stretched out his head, it seems that he is afraid of dystocia, you say that this is to protect the adult or the child!" ”
Hearing the word dystocia, the face of the black-faced man in the icy sea turned a little pale, and the old woman who had already squatted on the circle chair could no longer maintain her composure, her eyes were full of tears, her head was twisted like a black-faced man, and her face was struggling and hesitating!
The black-faced man looked at the sad old woman, and then looked at the non-stop roaring and cheering in the back room, thinking about the voice and smile of his daughter-in-law in the past few years, and finally made up his mind: "Second sister-in-law, give me a big baby!" Thinking that he was about to leave him before he met, his heart was like a knife, and the old lady next to him also stared blankly at the open door of the back room, letting tears run wild on her face.
"Second child, you carry my mother to your house first, and the third child will go in with me for a while to carry my daughter-in-law out, and there is no way to go on like this!!" After saying this, the man turned his head to look outside the house, looked up to the sky and shouted: "You thief, God, you obviously don't let us live!!! ”
As the so-called man has tears, he doesn't flick, but he hasn't reached the sad place, and no matter how strong he is like a black-faced man, he can't help but shed two lines of tears.
Just as everyone was about to take action, the voice of the woman in the room suddenly fell silent, and a crisp and pleasant child's cry resounded through the hall. After a while, a middle-aged, ordinary-looking woman came out of the house wading through the water: "It's okay!!! Congratulations to the old lady, congratulations to Master Li, he is a big fat boy, a full seven pounds and two taels, I didn't see that my sister's weak body can give birth to such a fat boy, no wonder it is so difficult to be born!! Now the mother and son are safe and sound, it is really a bodhisattva blessing, it is not in vain that the old lady has been eating fasting and reciting the Buddha, and being kind to others. ”
Before the woman could finish speaking, the middle-aged man had already walked into the room quickly, and he didn't care about the old woman who was squatting on the circle chair.
"Stone, quick, quick, carry me in to see my grandson!!" The old lady was overjoyed, just about to say goodbye to life and death, but in a blink of an eye, the mother and son were safe, and the turning point in her life came so suddenly.
Not to mention, since the child's cry sounded, the storm in the sky suddenly came, the dark clouds in the sky were slowly dissipating, and the most amazing thing was that the knee-deep sea water was also fading at a speed visible to the naked eye, and in a short time, the wet ground was slowly revealed. At the same time, a ray of golden sunlight will shine through the clouds in the sky, and it will sparkle in this small courtyard, which looks sparkling under the reflection of the sea water that has not completely dispersed.
Such a scene, even a few big men who have lived by the sea all their lives have never seen it, they are all amazed and feel incredible.
"Looking at this scene, how can I feel like I was born with a vision!" The man in the green shirt joked with a smile, and after the catastrophe, he was fortunate.
"It's true, this earth-shaking change was realized at the moment when our little nephew was born, as if it was because of him and because of him!" A few men who watched the black-faced man carefully pick up the villain from a distance didn't see the heavy expression just now, and they all showed smiling faces.
Although it still felt absurd when it was said, the more I thought about it, the more I felt that it was quite similar to the story that was circulating, and several people also invariably aimed their eyes at the little man who had just been born for less than a lifetime.
