Yu Jinhai called a few people over and said to Yunsong:

"They are all people who have gone to sea and seen the dragon-horned ghost ship - the dragon-horned ghost ship is the ship you mentioned. Its horn is the same as a dragon's horn, so we call it that."

There were four people who came over, all dry men.

After the four people arrived, they nodded and bowed, then kept looking at the iron pot.

Yun Song waved, and the big elephant immediately scooped a bowl of mutton soup for each of them, which contained meat and ribs.

Not much.

A man said weakly: "Good man, I like to eat ribs..."

"I ride horses and like to eat ginseng fruit." Mangzi replied angrily.

The man scratched his head in embarrassment and said, "It's a pity that I don't have ginseng fruit at home. If I did, I would definitely give it to good people."

Yun Song smiled and said: "There are only a few pieces of lamb ribs, and some of the mutton is already good, right?"

Yu Jinhai smiled and said: "That's right, that's right, Tietou, you can do it. If it weren't for the kindness of a kind person, you wouldn't be able to eat a bite of mutton this year!"

Tietou chuckled, took the mutton soup, and quickly tore up the dry biscuits and soaked them in, soaking up a full bowl in one go.

Yun Song asked: "Have you all seen the dragon-horned ghost ship? When does it usually appear?"

"I've seen the most people hit by iron heads," said a man who was devouring dry biscuits.

Tietou said happily: "Yes, I have indeed encountered it a few times. It appears irregularly. On the first and fifteenth day of the lunar month? It doesn't count, right? But if there is a funeral performance at sea, then it will definitely come out!"

"Oh, you are really good at talking nonsense." Yu Jinhai glared at him, "As long as the funeral drama is sung, the ghost boats will indeed come. The problem is that when the mother sings the funeral drama, there will be more ghost boats coming out!"

Yun Song asked curiously: "Funeral opera? Do you have the custom of singing funeral operas here?"

These days, let alone TV and movies, there are no storytellers, so theater is the only entertainment activity for the people.

The funeral drama is the only entertainment activity for Sneaky.

In the early days, this funeral drama was a type of sacrifice, specially used to worship the heroes who died on the battlefield.

Most of those who died on the battlefield were young people. Young people died before they had lived enough, and they must be full of resentment.

Furthermore, they lived a short life and enjoyed few things. They were unwilling to accept their death and could easily become evil spirits.

Therefore, whenever sacrifices were held on the battlefield, the imperial court would not only spare food and wine but also send a large number of actors to perform in operas.

This kind of play is called a funeral play.

Later on, the tradition of funeral dramas spread, and as long as they were powerful and wealthy, they would sing a funeral drama after the death of their family members.

There are certain things to pay attention to when singing a funeral drama. Firstly, it is to bid farewell to the deceased members of the family, and secondly, it is to please the surrounding sneaky people so that they will not bully the newly deceased person in the host's family.

But singing a funeral drama requires a lot of attention, and not everyone can sing it.

If you don't perform well in an ordinary opera, you'll be booed at most, but if you don't perform well in a ghost opera, you might be dragged away by the ghosts and trained.

Therefore, there are generally two types of funeral dramas. One is ordinary singing by living people. In that case, you have to find a famous actor to sing and be able to sing it to the satisfaction of the sneaks.

The other way is for the monks to sing, and if the sneaks are not satisfied, they will be beaten until they are satisfied - this is just a formality.

But no matter what kind of funeral drama model it is, it obviously requires sufficient strength, economic strength and power.

Yun Song saw that the people near Luofeng Island were extremely poor. How could they have the ability to stage a funeral?

The answer was beyond his expectation.

Yu Jinhai said: "Yes, but the funeral drama here is unusual. Our funeral drama is not sung by humans!"

"You good man, you don't know that there are many reefs and beaches in our place. Once there is a strong low tide, many rocks will be exposed in the sea."

"More than a dozen miles to the east, it takes less than two sticks of incense for the boat to travel, and there is such a reef beach. When the reef is exposed by the low tide, this beach looks like a person."

"At this time, we put makeup and clothes on them. When the tide comes in at night, they will sing and sing!"

Changzhou whispered: "This is the stone man show on Luofeng Island!"

Yun Song said in shock: "Is there such a strange thing?"

The locals nodded one after another: "Good man, we dare not lie to you about this."

Yun Song asked: "It's really not dangerous to sing a funeral drama like this. When was the last low tide? We can have a funeral drama."

Tietou said: "You have to spend money to buy makeup powder, opera robes, red robes, and offerings. It will cost a lot of money."

Yun Song said boldly: "I will pay for this. As long as we can lure the Dragon Horn Ghost Ship out, I will have no problem paying any more money."

"And I not only pay for the makeup of the stone man, but I also give money to the people who help. Each person who helps during the day will get one yuan! Each person who helps at night will get ten yuan!"

Upon hearing this, Yu Jinhai's younger brother Yu Jinshui stood up first: "Then I will help..."

Yu Jinhai kicked him: "Sit down, are you doing something bad here?!"

He groaned and rolled his eyes, with a sly smile on his face:

"Good man, we understand what you mean, and we can understand your feelings, but you don't know that singing a funeral drama at sea is a life-threatening job. Isn't ten yuan an ocean..."

Yun Song understood what he meant, he wanted the lion to open his mouth.

So he smiled and said: "If that's the case, then forget it. The dragon-horned ghost ship will always appear anyway, so I'll just wait for it for a few more days and prevent everyone from taking risks on the sea."

These words made the group anxious.

Yu Jinshui glared at his brother and said: "Brother, you are afraid of the funeral scene at sea, but I am not afraid. I am a good man and I will help you!"

Tietou's mouth was full of bubble cakes and he wanted to speak but couldn't make a sound, so he stood up and nodded desperately in agreement.

Yu Jinhai was helpless and said: "Good man, you misunderstood me. I, I meant, isn't ten yuan a bit too much?"

"Nine oceans, just nine oceans!"

Everyone looked at him with eyes full of anger.

If he died now, these people would not bury him at all, but burn him and spread his ashes!

Yun Song smiled and said: "Brother Yu is really a good person. You all say that I am a good person, and Brother Yu is also very kind."

Yu Jinhai's face was full of embarrassment, and everyone around him was glaring at him. He had no choice but to lower his head and drink the soup without saying anything.

Tietou said with a sad face: "Good man, ten yuan is really not a lot of money. I, I, I am like this, I go during the day and at night, is this ten yuan for me?"

Yun Song said: "Yes, I will give you ten yuan."

Others quickly said: "Then we will go during the day and night."

Yu Jinhai winced and said, "Count me in."

Yun Song smiled and said, "Can we use so many people?"

Yu Jinhai laughed and said: "It's easier to do things when there are more people. It's always easier to do things."

The seaside around Luofeng Island has two explanations for the rising and falling tides, namely the living tide and the dead tide. The dead tide refers to the small tide. The ebb and flow are not obvious. Fishermen also call it the dead tide.

The active tide is naturally the opposite tidal movement. At this time, the sea water level changes greatly, usually at the beginning, end and middle of each month, while the dead tide usually occurs from the first to the twelfth, twenty-third to twenty-seventh of the lunar calendar.

Big active tides refer to days when sea water levels change particularly, such as the first, sixteenth, second, seventeenth, fourteenth, twenty-ninth, fifteenth, thirtieth, etc.

The great ebb tide is the most dramatic change in water level among the great active tides. It usually occurs on the 29th day of the lunar calendar. Its high tide time is approximately midnight and noon, so five or six o'clock in the morning and evening is the low tide time.

The makeup and opera robes on the stone figures have to be put on in the morning and evening, and in the middle of the night it is time to sing the funeral drama.

It was October 22nd when Yunsong arrived at Luofeng Island, so he had to wait seven days for the low tide to arrive.

During the past seven days, he found a few houses on the shore to live in, and he lived in a sea-view room.

But it's not easy to live in a sea view room.

The house is leaking!

Very cold!

Fortunately, he had Linghu Yuan and Abao to hold him and keep warm.

When he was twenty-eight, Yun Song, accompanied by brothers Yu Jinhai and Yu Jinshan, went to the nearest town, where he bought chicken, duck, wine, meat and a full set of costumes and costumes.

They didn't spend much money on makeup and costumes, but they bought low-quality goods, but they spent a lot on chicken, duck, wine and meat. They bought a lot, but the Yu brothers were being cautious and wanted to take the opportunity to improve their food.

Yun Song didn't have the same experience as them.

They are all ordinary people who are scared.

Essentially, they don't want to take advantage, they just want to seize the opportunity to have a good meal.

Yun Song understood this, so he specially bought a piece of Yujiahong. Yu Jinshui sighed: "The best drink I have ever had in my life is to follow a good person and get the benefit of the money."

That night, the people on Luofeng Island had another lively meal, and then woke up on October 29th.

Every time the tide goes out, it is also a time to go to sea. It is like going to the market. The whole family of fishermen often goes out to the beach to look for some seafood. At this time, the beach is always bustling with people.

Luofeng Island is not as deserted as the Danmin brothers said. This sea area is indeed barren. It is a delusion to catch big fish offshore, but there are always some living things in the sea.

After the tide goes out, you can see a lot of living creatures, especially small crabs. When Yun Song went to the beach in the morning, he saw many small crabs running rampant in the tidal flats.

The Danmin brothers turned a blind eye to this. After looking at it, they shook their heads in disappointment: "Is this also called the sea? This is a fucking poor sea!"

Yun Song said: "Isn't there a little crab here?"

The local fishermen were busy picking up these small crabs. Po picked one up and stuffed it into his mouth, and then screamed "oooh, oh, oh, oh".

Yunsong took a look and saw that the little crab was caught in its mouth!
