007. Moony Night Wolf (Part 1)
After dinner, Zhongqiu should be watching the moon, but the clouds were dense that night, and I could only see a faint light in a certain direction in the sky. Zhuang Ru stood on the balcony and sighed: "It's a pity that I can't see the moon." She said a little sad.
Bai Shaoliu changed the topic: "There should be a tide in full moon, and the tide will fade away."
Zhuang Ru: "Then you go to the sea to play tomorrow. If you can pick up the sea items and bring them back to cook... By the way, Xiaobai, can you swim?"
Bai Shaoliu: "Can you swim? I was born with water! My grandma said that I must have been a fish in my previous life... I am not bragging to you, as long as I have food and drink, I can stay in the water for three days and three nights without going ashore."
Zhuang Ru was finally amused by him: "Xiaobai, are you telling the truth? Then you can go to the beachfront to swim tomorrow, and it will be just right to relax. After mid-autumn, the sea water will start to cool down... No matter how good your water is, you should still pay attention to safety."
...
Just as Zhuang Ru and Xiaobai were talking about the sea water, two people were standing quietly on a trest bridge in a park on the beach in Wuyou City. The long trest bridge reached into the sea, with only the sound of waves hitting the sky on all sides. Feng Junzi held his hands together and looked up at the sky. There was a plate on the ground in front of him, with oranges, pomegranates, mooncakes and other offerings placed in the middle. His wife Xiao Yunyi looked at him quietly not far behind him, without making a sound to disturb him.
In Xiao Yunyi's eyes, my husband is a very unique person. For example, the habit of worshiping the moon every Mid-Autumn Festival is stormy and rain. This is a good situation like this tonight. The thick clouds cover the moon, and the people who do not watch the moon by the sea seem very deserted. I remember that the Mid-Autumn Festival Feng Junzi also worshiped the moon here in the Mid-Autumn Festival. It was a sunny day. There were many people on the beach who came to enjoy the moon. Feng Junzi fell down to the moon in the surprised eyes of so many people, bowing respectfully three times and nine times, completely ignoring the surprise and slandering of the people around him.
There is a more magical side to Feng Junzi, that is, every Mid-Autumn Festival, whenever he kneels on the ground, the moon in the sky will always appear. Whether it is wind or raining, a round round will appear from the gaps in the clouds at that moment, for example, this was the case last year. Feng Junzi has this habit since childhood, long before he married Xiao Yunyi. Feng Junzi never explained why, and Xiao Yunyi simply did not ask.
Today is a cloudy and close to cloudy weather. The clouds covered the entire sky. There was a slightly shiny place in the clouds that should be the direction of the moon. Feng Junzi was facing that direction. Xiao Yunyi knew that as long as he knelt down, the moon would emerge from the gap between the two clouds, and the moonlight would definitely shine on Feng Junzi.
At this moment, a rushing footsteps came from the other end of the trestle. A young man walked over with big strides and rushed to the end of the trestle before he stopped. His position was the sea. What was this man doing? Did he jump into the sea? However, this man did not jump into the sea. His expression was extremely anxious in the dark. He scratched his chest with both hands and looked up at the sky, looking at the direction of the moon behind the clouds.
Feng Junzi remained silent, but Xiao Yunyi frowned. The man was standing in a very unfortunate position, just in front of Feng Junzi. If Feng Junzi knelt down, he would kneel down to him. Feng Junzi also knew that he had put his hands together and waited there without moving. The man had no intention of leaving for a while, but instead paced back and forth not far in front of Feng Junzi, with heavy breathing sounds in his mouth and nose.
Feng Junzi remained motionless and kept holding his hands together and preparing to bow down. Xiao Yunyi was a little anxious but hard to say - the park was not open by their home, and anyone could come to this place. The man turned around for a long time, just like a wolf at 4:30 in the afternoon in the zoo. Finally, he found something wrong with a man and a woman on the pier. He also saw Feng Junzi's waiting respectfully, and then he felt that his position was not suitable. He walked back and forth to Xiao Yunyi behind Feng Junzi, panting and asked, "Can I yell at the moon a few times? I don't want to scare you!"
Xiao Yunyi: "Can you wait a while? Wait until my husband finished worshiping the moon."
When they were talking, Feng Junzi had already knelt down, holding his hands on the ground and pressing his forehead against the ground. It was amazing that the clouds in the sky suddenly accelerated at a high altitude, and a round moon revealed a complete round in the gaps of the clouds at this time. The sudden moonlight sprinkled, and all the sounds around were quiet, as if even the waves were no longer slapped the reefs.
As soon as the moon came out, the man's expression became very manic. He turned sharply to look up at the sky and opened his mouth as if he was about to shout. At this moment, Feng Junzi bowed down, and a faint layer of floating mist seemed to float by in the low sky. The moonlight flashed slightly as if the shadow in the moon had disappeared, turning into a pure mysterious light. The man opened his mouth and did not shout, as if Feng Junzi bowed down and carried an invisible pressure or a soothing force, forcing his restlessness back.
Feng Junzi knelt on the ground and kowtowed three times, then stood up and put his palms together. Feng Junzi joined together, and the man's face changed again, and he became very anxious. He reached out to scratch his chest through his clothes and opened his mouth to shout. However, then Feng Junzi knelt down again and kowtowed three times, and the man's shouting was swallowed back again. The third is that Feng Junzi had finished bowing three times and nine times according to the ancient etiquette, and stood up. The man's manic emotions had almost disappeared, but his breathing was still a heavy and depressing sound. His eyes were red and he looked up at the sky again, and the moon once again disappeared behind the clouds.
The man glanced at the sky, turned around and left with a strange look, without saying anything. Xiao Yunyi took a large paper bag with him, packed up the offering fruits on the ground, and said to Feng Junzi: "That man is so strange. I just asked me if I could yell at the moon a few times?"
Feng Junzi smiled: "I heard it too. If he wants to yell, just yell. The beach is not ours."
Xiao Yunyi: "That's right, but I still want him to wait, but he didn't yell."
Feng Junzi: "Actually, I really want to hear what he is going to yell at, but unfortunately I left like that. Do you think he was heartbroken? Scream to the sea - XX, I love you!"
Xiao Yunyi also smiled: "No way? I see that he is very manic, like something pressing on his heart to spit it out, and he keeps scratching his chest, like an emotion that is about to rush out. Later, when you worship the moon, his manicity is suppressed by a little bit."
Feng Junzi frowned: "Is that true? I haven't seen this. Have you ever heard of a legend?"
Xiao Yunyi: "What legend?"
Feng Junzi: "Moon Night Wolf!...It is said that there is a strange man in the West, which is normal, but when he sees the full moon, he will become a wolf. He forgets his rationality and viciousness. He is a legendary dark creature."
Xiao Yunyi: "Honey, don't scare me!...You just said a weird person, why didn't you say it was a monster?"
Feng Junzi: "They are originally humans, but there is a beastly nature like a wolve lurking in their hearts. When the surface self-consciousness control collapses, the beastly nature will occur. So they are monsters rather than monsters."
Xiao Yunyi shivered in fear and couldn't help but hold Feng Junzi's arm tightly: "Aren't these things Western legends? Did you mean that the person just now waswolves? How could he appear in Zhixu Kingdom?..."
Feng Junzi: "Just just kidding, how can there be any werewolf? They are all legends."
Xiao Yunyi: "After hearing what you said, I still think that the person just now is a bit like. How did you say these things come out?"
...
Just as Feng Junzi worships the moon by the sea, a priest in a church not far from the park was preaching to a group of believers in the audience: "The Lord said to Moses, 'You must not have any other gods except me... You cannot kneel down to worship the images of all things in the world, nor serve them, because I am your only God.'..."
The content of the priest's preaching is the content of God's ten precepts to the saint Moses in their Bible. God is the only god, and people cannot worship other gods, including things. Interestingly, the gentleman of Feng is praying three times and nine times at the distance to the moon by the sea.
...
Feng Junzi and Xiao Yunyi walked and said that they were almost at the entrance of the park. The sound of singing in the distance suddenly came from the evening breeze. Feng Junzi stood up and listened carefully. It was a hymn: "All peoples, you must clap your hands! You must shout to God with a voice of glory. The Lord is the supreme king who ruled everything. The Lord lets all the people submit to us, and lets the Gangs surrender to our feet..."
Seeing that Feng Junzi suddenly stopped talking, Xiao Yunyi asked, "When you ask, say it quickly, how did those things come out?"
Feng Junzi answered thoughtfully while listening to the hymn, "God said there should be light, so there was light. It was beautiful when the light appeared, but from then on there was darkness in the shadows. This seemed to be a law of preservation."
Feng Junzi was talking about mysterious things again. Xiao Yunyi asked with interest: "What do you mean-?"
Feng Junzi: "If it is necessary to say that light was created by God, then darkness must be created by God, and God cannot escape from it. Hell is the cornerstone of heaven, and if there is no hell, there will be no heaven."
Xiao Yunyi: "Someone should go to hell!...You seem to be very unfamiliar with these theories?"
Feng Junzi: "Yes, there are many people who should go to hell, who decides the question?... In fact, from a certain aspect, I still appreciate this theory. Heaven and hell are chosen by everyone themselves, just like the saying "The clear one is clear, and the turbid one is turbid." The world is between heaven and hell, and standing here you can see both heaven and hell."
