ce upon a time,there lived on the coast of the beautiful South China Se a teenager, Ah Xin, who went fishing every morning before dawn no matter whether it was the dead of winter or sweltering hot in summer.

One day, he wnet out fishing and didn’t come back untill his basket was filled Walking on the burning sand, he was on his way home when he saw a little goldfish on the sand.

Agreedy crow, flapping his wings, swoopted towards the little goldfish who lay gasping.Just then , Ah Xin hastened to the little fish and picked her up.

Ah Xin hurried to the sea and put the little fish back into the water After long minutes, the little goldfish began to wave her tail, blowing out many bubbles Raising her head, she looked at

Ah Xin standing on the sand, then swam away into the deepsea.

The golden conch

Cooking dinner as he repaired his torn fishing net, Ah Xin smiled to himself when he thought of the little goldfish.

Ah Xin sang as he went fishing the next morning He threw out his net many times without catching anything except the same golden conch with each cast.

Dissapointed, he sat down on the beach But the conch was crawling quietly towards Ah Xin.Holding up the conch absent-mindedly, he was surprised to find that it was a wonderful beautiful shellfish.

Ah Xin took the conch home, put it in a basin of clear water and then went to fixing his torn net outside It grew darker and darker Thinking there would be nothing for dinner, he dicided to go to bed early to forget his hunger.

Opening the door, he was amazed to see a splendid meal on the table! “It must be a dream,” he thought to himself, “or may be someone has made a mistake!” He waited and waited but noone came to claim it.

Feeilng sure that noone would come, he began to eat the delicious dinner greedily.

The same thing happened for three days.

Ah Xin was so perlexed he didn’t sleep well, but finally he thought out a good plan Acting

on his idea, he got up before dawn and went to see But this time, he came back earlier than usual and climbed up in a tree, so he could see through the window What he saw greatly surprised him – a beautiful girl was cleaning and tidying up the room for him.

When the sun set, the girl put the delicous meal on the table and then sat on the bed sewing clothes for Ah Xin.

Ah Xin tiptoed into the room and greeted the girl, who was dismayed to have been found Politely, he asked her name, where she came from and where she was going, saying that if she were lost, he would escort her to her destination.

Shyly, the girl said, “My name is Conch, and I live on the other side of the sea I want to learn singing from you and make friends with you Please let me stay.”

Overjoyed, he went out gathering flowers and orchids Ah Xin made a fragrant flower bed for her Every night the moonlight would stream through the window onto the bed where the girl slept soundly From then on, the little house always had the delicate fragance of flowers.

Several years passed Ah Xin had become a strong and handsome young man While Conch had grown up to be a beautiful woman Walking up from a dream one night, Ah Xin saw Conch was crying sadly.

Ah Xin went up to her, asking what had happened “I am the daughter of the Queen of Sea,” said she, “I was the little goldfish you saved several years ago I’ve come to this world without my mother’s permission and now they are looking for me everywhere in the Dragon Palace.”

“I will have to go back to the sea before sunset,” Conch continued, “otherwise, this world will suffer a flood and we can never see each other again.” Holding her tightly, Ah Xin asked what he could do for her “Go to the island od the Immortals and ask my mother, the Queen of Sea, for help,” Conch said “But you must take unbrearable risks!”

“So long as we can be together, I’m willing to take the risks and endure the sufferings,’ said Ah Xin and then sailed his small boat onto the dark sea

Huge waves surged on the sea “Go back at once, or I’ll tear you to pieces!” howled the wind “I’ll push you to the bottom of the sea if you don’t go back at once! the sea roared But Ah Xin gave no thought to them He broke through the fierce wind and huge waves, racing his small boat into the deep sea.

Fro the dark sea arose a great ball of red light Standing on the Coral Island, the angry Queen of Sea, in a stern voice, asked Ah Xin, who was caught on the sea by two crocodile guards, “You stole my daughter away How dare you again come to my island?”

“I didn’t steal her,” said Ah Xin calmly “I’ve come here to ask hor your help I love Conch

very much Please don’t force us to part!” “You can ask for anything , but don’t imagine you can have Conch!” said the Queen of Sea “Return to your home now Come back and see me again if you’re not satisfied.”

Ah Xin was thrown back to the sea with his boat Looking back, he could see nothing Sadly, he sailed home To his great surprise, his shabby cottage had become a magnificent house!

Greeted by Conch, Ah Xin walked into the new and brightly shining house.

“Congratulations on your safe return and wealth!” she said “In future, everything will turn out as you wish But I’ll go back to the sea the day after tomorrow Please don’t sing to the sea any more That way I won’t feel so very sad.”

Ah Xin followed Conch wherever she went On the third night, despite the fierce wind and huge waves, he went again to the island to see the Queen of Sea “I don’t want gold nor silver,” said Ah Xin, “I want Conch only.” “She’ll have to return,” said the Queen of Sea “You can come here again in three days and choose whoever you want among the beautiful girls.”

Upon his return he found that Conch had already changed into an old woman Weeping, Conch pleased, “Let me go! The magic will make me even older in three days!” Ah Xin would not let her go.

Ah Xin loved Conch all the more He didn’t move a step from her Three days passed and night fell again Ah Xin, buffetted by the dangerous waves and storm, made a third voyage to see the Queen of Sea.

Smiling in triumph, the Queen of Sea said to Ah Xin, “Conch is an old woman now People will laugh at you if you still keep her by your side There are many fairy maidens here, and you can choose anyone you like.” She waved her hand and a group of maidens appeared before them.

But Ah Xin was not swayed by them in the lest In his mind there was only Conch “I want nothing in the world but Conch and I don’t care whether she’s old and gray,” Ah Xin shouted to the Queen of Sea.

The Queen’s face now became stern She waved to the rocodile guards, who dragged Ah Xin away and chained him to a rock Black waves crashed on his body “Don’t imagine you can get away without letting Conch come back!” said the Queen of Sea.

Beaten by the evil waves and hurricane wind, Ah Xin cried defiantly, “No matter how cruelly you beat me, I won’t exchange Conch, not even for a crystal palace!”

Standing upright, Ah Xin was like an iron man The Queen of Sea, who didn’t look as fierce

as she had been, waved her hand to stop the wind and the waves Ah Xin was untied and brought before the queen by the crocodile guards.

The Queen of Sea greeted Ah Xin with a smile, “Congratulations! Your bravery and faithfulness have won my daughter’s love!”

The Queen of Sea gave Ah Xin a pearl as Conch’s dowry Then she told Ah Xin to close his eyes, and in relief he was wafted home by a cool breeze.

Lit up by the bright pearl, Conch became as young and beautiful as she had been As Conch rose to greet him Ah Xin found that she was much more charmping than the pearl in his hand.

Not long after, many fishemen from faraway places came to congratulate them at their simple but happy wedding.

They spent eighty happy years together and then simply vanished But even noe, fishermen can still hear Ah Xin’s loud and clear singing every morning on the South China Sea
