Chapter 27: A Nest of Blood Clams!
After only a short while, Ye Yaodong found five stone crabs, six or seven sword shrimp, and a few jumping fish. The best goods were that big nine-section shrimp.
He continued to wander around the shallow water area. "Ah, blood clams, damn, and it's a nest!"
In this era, there were very few nearsighted people, not to mention he didn't study, his eyesight was very good. From far away, he saw a few blood clams on the surface of the sand with their mouths open, exposing their tentacles. He quickly ran forward two steps.
"It really is a nest!"
"What nest?" Hearing Xiao Xiao, who wasn't far from him, heard his excited voice and turned his head to ask.
"Blood clams, I found a nest of blood clams, all with their mouths open, exposing their tentacles playing," Ye Yaodong squatted down and picked one up. The moment it reached his hand, its mouth closed tightly.
He weighed it, grinning happily. "The size is really not small, harvest! Harvest!"
With a thud, he threw it into the bucket!
Hearing Xiao Xiao ran over curiously to take a look. "Damn, what kind of luck do you have? Such big blood clams actually got picked by you, and you picked a nest..."
Azheng also ran over to take a look. "MD, what kind of dog shit luck did you step on? Actually picked so many stone crabs? Look at mine, two sword shrimp, two jumping fish, nothing!"
"Me too! I'm even less, just picked two jumping fish." Chen Wei was far away, but also shook his bucket twice.
"It's your luck that's not good!" Ye Yaodong happily picked up this nest of blood clams gathered together and threw them into the bucket.
Listening to the thudding sound, everyone was envious, jealous, and hateful.
"How many in this nest? And every one is big, this must be super refreshing to eat!"
He shook the water bucket and estimated it. According to the size, these were definitely more than a jin. "Forgot to count, seems like eighteen or nineteen, more than a jin."
"Dog shit luck! Go, go, go, give this area to me to find, you go to other places, my bucket is still empty, how do you have the nerve?" A-Guang waved his big long hook enviously, jealously, and hatefully, driving him to the side, preparing to occupy the area he was looking for.
Ye Yaodong moved to the side. "Hahaha, I said why have you been silent all along? Turns out your bucket is empty, no confidence to speak!"
"Roll, roll, roll~ This side is contracted by me, you go find in other places, let me also turn my luck!"
"I think, your luck is bad, it's because the name your father gave you is not very good, Pei Guang, lose everything, isn't it empty, everything is not smooth? Don't you think you lose more when playing cards? And in all these years, you haven't been very smooth in doing other things either."
He said this a bit seriously. A-Guang's luck had always been not very good. After he went to Zhoushan, they communicated by phone occasionally, and all he heard was that he lost whatever he did!
Until he was over forty, he was reminded by someone to change his name to see if he could turn his luck.
Unexpectedly, after changing his name, everything he did went smoothly. In just a few years, he cleared his external debts and could even buy a house for his son to get married.
Ye Yaodong felt he needed to remind A-Guang. Better to believe it exists than not, people in their rural area in this era had always been quite superstitious.
A-Guang touched his chin. "I also feel my name is not very good!"
"Why don't you ask your father to change your name to A-Wang? Hahahaha~"
"Haha~ this can have, this name is good~"
"That won't do, if you call it A-Wang, you'll win every day when playing cards in the future, how can that be! My pants pocket will be lost."
"Right, right, right, can't call it A-Wang, too prosperous, how can that be! Money all won by him."
Everyone laughed loudly, you say one sentence, I say one sentence, teasing him.
"Roll, do your work!" A-Guang looked at this group of bad friends with disdain.
"Or you change your name to Pei Shun! Everything goes smoothly, great luck and great prosperity!" Ye Yaodong happily walked to the position A-Guang was looking for before. He changed his name to Pei Shun in his previous life.
"Eh, Pei Shun is okay, easy to call, and the meaning is also good!" A-Guang was a bit moved.
"The knowledge of taking names is indeed very mysterious, heard it relates to a person's life, luck, future, etc. Now when a child is born, don't fortune tellers calculate the birth date based on the I Ching and Eight Trigrams? I have a copy of "I Ching" at home, do you want to take it and study it? Better to believe it exists than not."
A-Guang looked at Azheng in surprise. "What is "I Ching"? You still have this? Are you preparing to be self-taught and change your profession to be a god-stick?"
"Pfft, that was something I accidentally found at home, and there's a secret book of acupoint pressing, maybe it was left by my ancestors! Do you want to practice it? Ancestral, maybe you can practice to be a martial arts master!"
"Damn, it turns out your ancestors were not only possibly fortune tellers, but also possibly wandering martial artists, even have a secret book of acupoint pressing. Do you have the Sunflower Manual? Bixie Sword Manual?"
"Do you want to practice? I can write it down for you. To practice this skill, must first castrate oneself. I don't mind helping you! Take a firewood knife? A bit dull, can let your bird stay for a while."
"Are you already castrated? That's why you haven't married a wife all along. Damn, your father only has you as a son, you're too ruthless~ even the little bird doesn't want~"
"What little bird, you're the one castrated! Mine is a big bird!"
Amidst their banter, Ye Yaodong was surprised to discover a fish with black and gray spots on its tail exposed under a large rock nearby. He hurriedly interrupted their conversation. "Holy crap, you guys come look at this big rock. Is that a grouper tail sticking out?"
"Where? Where is it?" A-Guang excitedly ran over directly and lay down to look under the big stone. "Damn, it's a tiger grouper. I also turned around this stone just now, why didn't I see it?"
"Told you, you have bad luck. Move aside, I'll poke it with the fire tongs, see if I can make it swim out, can't catch it if it drills under the stone." Ye Yaodong was very excited, tiger grouper, this was a big harvest!
The others gathered around again, couldn't help but complain, "Why do you encounter all the good goods? A-Guang turned around here for half a day, and didn't see anything!"
"Maybe my luck has turned?"
Or is it that things turn into their opposites? Died by falling into the sea while peeing, reborn, bad luck scattered, must have good luck exploding?
A-Wei patted A-Guang on the shoulder. "Wait for your father to come back, hurry and change your name!"
A-Guang was also very depressed. He had indeed turned around under this big stone just now. He also felt there should be something, but didn't see the fish run out. Hearing Dongzi say he had a nest of blood clams over there, he ran over excitedly.
It was really bad luck to the extreme. He turned around here for half a day and didn't see anything. Dongzi came over and immediately found a grouper. It was really damn annoying.
