To be honest, Qin Shiou had seen the boat lights, but he didn't know that it was exiled on the eve of Christmas, so he asked Shaq.

Shaq said that fishing in the sea used to be a high-risk job, and many people could not come back after going to sea. In this way, every year on the eve of Christmas, fishermen bring their families to set up boat lights, one is to pray for peace, and the other is to use it as a guide light. If they die in the deep sea in the future, their souls will come back under the guidance of this boat light.

Later, with the advancement of science and technology and the rescue work became timely, many places lost this tradition. In fact, there were no activities to set off boat lights on the Eve of Safe Island for several years.

"I just said, I didn't do it last year, right? Why did you suddenly remember this thing this year?" Qin Shiou said while playing with a polished shell.

Shaq said: "I don't know very well. It was the event initiated by Mayor Winnie, which seemed to be a cooperation with the filming of the movie. The movie directed by Cameron has related plots. Didn't we encounter a hurricane not long after Christmas? What I found out was that the movie had an opening plot, which was that we put the boat lights and prayed for everything to go well, so as to lay the foundation for the shipwreck later."

Qin Shiou suddenly realized that the crew had arrived to say goodbye to the town. In fact, the movie stars looked glamorous on the outside and suffered a lot when they were actually filming movies. It was Christmas soon, and they could not go home to celebrate the festival and needed to come to the farewell island for the second phase of the filming.

Developing boat lights is a traditional event, so Qin Shiou also participates in the production. It should be very interesting to participate in the event together.

There are many people and great power, and a large number of shells quickly made into boat lights.

The fishermen used hand grinders to polish shells, while the teenagers stuck candles upwards, with clear division of labor and working very quickly.

Shaq asked Qin Shiou to bring the teenagers to stick candles, but Qin Shiou disdained and said, "I'll polish the shells."

The working bull said, "Boss, don't look at this thing as simple. In fact, it is skillful. The shell has poor balance and it is easy to sink into the water when putting it in. Therefore, when polishing, you have to polish it from the outside to the inside. The more you polish it in, the lighter it will be. In this way, the bottom of the boat is heavy enough, so that it will not easily overturn."

As he said that, the bull demonstrated one for him, and after polishing it out, the shell really looked like a small boat, with a thin edge as a cicada's wing. Qin Shiou looked at the sun, and then saw nothing. Please, the bull was just a fisherman, not Luban.

Qin Shiou also polished one by himself. If the hand grinder is not easy to control, it will cause the shell to break if it is not careful. He tried several times. The four shells were destroyed, and the fifth one was successfully polished.

As a result, when it was put on the sea, the big shells had just floated up, and Qin Shiou was not waiting to be happy. A wave hit him and disappeared.

"Fake!" Qin Daren cursed hatefully, picked up a shell and continued to work quietly.

Shaq persuaded, "Boss, you can stick candles. That's much simpler, right?"

Qin Shiou insisted: "No, I have to learn it. I can't escape because of its difficulties. Was it?"

Since he showed such determination, the fishermen were inconvenient to say anything, so they could only let him polish it by themselves. Anyway, some of the big shells picked up in the fishing ground were.

Hard work pays off. Qin Shiou fumbled for half an hour by himself, and finally got it easy to make it. Finally, it only took two minutes to polish a shell.

A candle was stuck onto the shell, and Qin Shiou put it into the ocean with confidence. As a result, another wave came, and the shell still couldn't get rid of its fate!

"I don't believe in evil after being a father of Jesus." Qin Daren was furious and gritted his teeth to study it again.

But no matter how he polished it, even if the shells polished in the end were already perfect, they still couldn't avoid the wind and waves.

In this way, he had to admit defeat and told Shaq that he could not make the shell boat light: "I don't know what went wrong. The shell cannot avoid the waves that are being beaten, so let's forget it."

The fishermen looked at him in shock, and Shaq asked, "You are kidding, this is a shell, not a real boat, how can you compare to the waves? As long as it is a wave, it is taller than the shell. The shell boat lights we polished cannot withstand the slap of the waves."

"Yes, our boat lights are used in Shenbao Lake, so there are no such big waves in the lake." The sea monster said naturally.

Qin Shiou: "..."

In addition to shell boat lights, Shaq and others also made some special conch boat lights.

The fishermen choose fist-sized conchs and then carefully polish them so that the conch can float horizontally on the water like a boat. Finally, fill the conch shell with wax oil, insert a wick, and ignite it after solidification, and it can be lit for a long time.

Qin Shiou couldn't learn this. It really required experience and skills. Among the fishermen, only Shaq, sea monster, smoke gun, and Zach were able to do it well, but no one else could do it.

After experimenting several times, he found that the shell he was dealing with could not even maintain balance on the water surface, so he gave up struggling and had to admit defeat this time.

Black Knife and his team of soldiers stayed in the fishing ground for so long. Qin Shiou gave them a holiday in the last week, a total of ten days of paid vacations, allowing them to spend time at home and stay at home until the beginning of the new year.

The fishing ground prepared a lot of gift boxes, all of which were dried seafood, such as dried bonito, lobster meat, etc. Qin Shiou asked them to take as much as the soldiers could.

There are many people in the fishing ground now, and there are fifteen retired Pla soldiers. Although they may not have participated in actual combat like Black Dao and others, they have also undergone rigorous training, with records and vigilance. If the soldiers are not there, they can be responsible for security duty.

In the evening of the December issue, the annual Eve of Peace has arrived.

Qin Shiou was driving, and Winnie was holding the little melon. The family happily came to the banks of the Chenbao Lake River. Some residents and tourists had already lit the boat lights there.

As night falls, lights are flashing in the dark. The sea breeze is not strong tonight, so it is suitable for boat lights in the lake.

"It's God's blessing." Auerbach drew a cross on his chest. "On the eve of ten times, there were such good weather at most twice. It seems that God has a better temper this year."

Countless lights are pounding in the breeze, and the dark winter night is not so gloomy, especially those boat lights that have been placed in the lake. The candle light on them complements the lake surface, which makes them look even more beautiful.

Qin Shiou put down the pumpkin boat. A small boat could take two people. The young men took a separate ride, rowed the boat to the center of the lake, then lit the shell boat light and placed it carefully on the lake.

Now on Shenbao Lake, the lights of large areas of water are flashing, and the boat lights float up and down with the slight waves. The fire not only illuminates the night and forms reflections in the water, but also dim the lights of the floating waves. (To be continued...)
