In my memory, before the age of 65,438+00, the same village was generally a small village, and it is also appropriate to describe it as "never leaving the village". If you want to travel far, Shuangdian Street is ten miles away, and Chahe Street is the farthest one twenty miles away. This experience of going out is also very rare. Along the way, you often see ditches, ponds and rivers, and you can also see the landscape of plain water towns.

According to a teacher surnamed Chen in the village, we should actually be regarded as children by the sea-the sea is just to the east and north of us.

I asked the elders in the village for the name of the sea many times, but most of them said they didn't know, and a few said it was the East China Sea, and they were not sure.

I overheard it. Isn't there a dragon king in the East China Sea? Are we really neighbors of the East China Sea Dragon King?

There are people in the village who get off the boat all the year round, riding a rusty bicycle-soaked in the sea by the sea breeze, selling seafood from door to door. There are clams and Koharu fish in spring, hairtail and "Xishiguan" in summer, pickled and dried "thatched leaf" fish in autumn and fresh clams in winter, all of which are rare delicacies.

Of course, these delicious foods satisfy my taste bud desire, but they can't stop my yearning for the sea, but they tease me more strongly. I often dream about what the sea in the east of my home looks like.

Probably in the third and fourth grades of primary school. I took the bus for the first time and went to the county seat to participate in the competition with Mr. Ge. A few days before departure, I was too excited to sleep! One night, I woke up, ran to the field with a flashlight and asked my father who was pouring water into the field, "Is it a big harbor to dig a harbor?" There must be a sea there! "

"There seems to be something there, but it seems not there. 198 1 year is surprisingly cold in winter. I was working as a river worker at the seaside of Dongling, and my hands and feet were numb with cold. There are always more than 60,000 river workers. " My father's answer is vague, as if there is no answer, but I'm sure I can meet the sea for a while on this trip.

After the game, I asked the teacher if I could go to see the sea. The teacher smiled: "this is digging a harbor, and the sea is far from here!" " "

"How far is it?" I look very disappointed.

"You can see it from Dongling in the east to Changsha in the north, but it takes dozens of miles!"

When I was in junior high school, I read Yan Lu's Listening to the Sea, Jun Qing's A Midsummer Night by the Sea and Yang Shuo's Snow Wave, which awakened my yearning for the sea. I really want to drive a fishing boat on a summer night with few stars in a month, pillow the waves on the sea, look up at the stars and listen attentively to see if my ears can hear rich sounds. But such a good opportunity never came.

I have studied abroad for three years and have seen the Yangtze River many times. We sang in small groups, had picnics, caught dragonflies and watched the beautiful sunset on the Yangtze River. Everyone can get drunk with a bottle of beer.

I went to work, and on a bright spring day, three of our colleagues met to ride a bike to see the sea. We set out from the ancient town to the north in less than an hour. Gradually, the wind increased, and there was a strong smell of the sea in our noses. We stepped on the winding levee to defend the sea, and the sea suddenly appeared in front of us like a huge picture scroll.

"The sea, here we come! Here we come! " We danced to the sea and cheered.

At this time, it coincided with the high tide, seagulls were singing and dancing in groups, fishing boats rushed into the harbor, and people who rushed to the small sea carried their hands and landed under the expulsion of the waves.

This time, close contact with the sea, we looked at it from a distance like ignorant children, deeply breathing the breath of the sea and thinking quietly. In front of the sea, we feel like tiny, insignificant microorganisms.

Five or six years later, we have a motorcycle, riding it, carrying a family of three, and we can go for a ride and play at the seaside at any time. At this time, thoughtful businessmen developed many tourist projects on the seashore, among which "disco at sea" has become famous at home and abroad.

If you want to dance "sea disco", you must grasp the trend of the day. At low tide, we choose to go to the seaside with Haizi, who is familiar with the sea, and sometimes meet international friends with blond hair and blue eyes. We can get on a wooden cart pulled by Haiziziniu. If we are in a hurry, we can also take a tractor and walk along the iron plate beach for more than ten miles before reaching the intertidal waters where we can step on clams. Although the sea water recedes, there are still many shallow waters with gullies and gullies. There are a lot of yellow snails, unknown fish and rampant crabs in the water. We danced on the iron sand, and a patterned shell emerged from our feet and tickled you gracefully. That kind of surprise is beyond words. We went ashore with trophies and felt that we really became seaside people.

With the expansion of the circle of friends, as long as friends from other places come to Rudong, we will become voluntary tour guides, and taking them to dance "disco at sea" has become a necessary project for their trip to Rudong. At that time, we seemed to be the masters of the ocean.

I got my own car last summer. Driving home for the first time, I took two old people to see the sea not far apart.

Can you believe that an old man who has lived by the sea for more than half a century has never seen the sea with his own eyes? An old man who took part in land reclamation at the age of seventeen or eighteen must recall that hard time. He saw the sea for the first time and saw tears in his eyes for the first time.

We transferred from Yangkou Fishing Port to Yangkou Port via Haiphong Highway, crossed the Yellow Sea Bridge, and set foot on the Sunshine Island carrying hope. The sunshine that day was particularly dazzling. When we boarded the outlying island, we looked back and saw that the whole Sunshine Island was shining with golden light.

Along the way, my mother was full of praise: "The changes outside are really amazing. This sea is really big. Sitting at home, I can't think of anything! "

The old father said, "Son, let me see the sea again in a few years!" " "

In fact, the sea around us, its real name is the Yellow Sea. Rudong 106 km is located at the southern end of the Yellow Sea, so it is often called the South Yellow Sea.
