Lei Haiqing was born in the 13th year of Tang Kaiyuan (AD 725). His father, Lei Zhibiao, is a musician in a brothel in Gusu, and his skills are superb. Later, he fell in love with a dancer in a brothel and fled back to his hometown Tianzhuang Village on the north bank of Meizhou Bay in Putian, where he made a living by fishing, picking up shells and performing arts. There is a woman and a man. The woman's name is Saddam and the man's name is Christina. They are dignified and beautiful, smart and sensitive, and their parents love them very much. They have been taught to sing and dance since childhood. Xiao Haiqing is lively and lovely, with a round face, rosy and moist, a small mouth that everyone wants to laugh, and a pair of deep dimples on both sides, which is very touching. According to myths and legends, on both sides of his mouth, there are five tattoo marks like crab feet, which were specially painted by Guanyin Bodhisattva for him. One day, when Hai Qing and his son were fishing and catching crabs on the beach, Xiao Hai Qing found a shiny red jade on the beach. He showed it to his father. His father watched it carefully, and when he saw its excellent color and sound, he took it home with a brainwave. He sawed into two pieces according to the shape of the stone. The big one is carved into a pillow piano, and the small one is carved into a white Yu Di, which he often tries to play with at the seaside. The piano was sonorous, the flute was crisp and melodious, and flocks of egrets and geese jumped to their feet and danced up and down in the blue sea and blue sky. The scene is spectacular. From then on, Xiao Haiqing sang loudly, played the piano and played the flute every day, and practiced hard. His father was very happy, and the creative inspiration came to his mind in an instant, and he compiled the excellent program "White Jade Dance" in Liyuan, which caused a sensation in Kyoto. A beautiful fisherman's song family life, unfortunately, was suddenly taken away by Liang Liang. A group of pirates bloodbath a small fishing village, Christina's home was burned, his mother was killed and Haishan was arrested. Fortunately, a clever little white dog at home rushed to the seaside and reported to Christina and his son who were fishing for shellfish. Qingfu hurriedly took Hai Qinghe and the puppy and sailed out to sea to escape, only to avoid a fatal disaster. Christina missed her mother and sister day and night, and she was so sad that she finally went crazy. His father is homeless and penniless. How can he see a doctor? I had to use a small chain to lock Christina, take him and the little white dog, and busk around to survive.

The child's eyes moistened when he heard the sad flute. When he heard the thunderous sound of the piano, he screamed at the sky, rolled around and cried. At this time, the little white dog lay on him and licked his little face with his tongue, as if to persuade him to be quiet. The tearful scene touched everyone and sent copper coins to the old man in succession. At this time, Cai Ping also took two taels of silver and sent it to the old man. After learning the details, she repeatedly said that she would help him solve it. She hurried home and begged her parents to try to save them.
