What are the eighteen monsters in Chaoshan?

One of the Eighteen Weirdnesses of Chaoshan: Kung Fu Tea is strangely fragrant. When northerners come to Chaoshan, the first word they learn is probably "Xiadai" (drinking tea). It’s no wonder that the seven things that open the door are firewood, rice, oil, salt, soy sauce, vinegar, and tea. Therefore, there are few Chinese who don’t drink tea. Cantonese people love tea more, and Chaoshan people especially. However, Chaoshan people drink tea differently from us. The second of the Eighteen Weird Things in Chaoshan: Worshiping Buddhism and Taoism together. Chaoshan people are world-famous for being good at Kung Fu Tea. Chaoshan people are also famous for being good at worshiping gods. In the Chaoshan area, you can see temples or churches everywhere, and Buddhists and Taoists worship together. Not only are Buddhists and Taoists located on the same mountain, some are even in the same room, and they are even managed under a unified management, standing side by side, together. Accept people's worship. Do you think it's strange or not? The third of the Eighteen Weird Things in Chaoshan: Buy Yes Don’t Yes Yes None Some scholars visited Chaoshan and believed that Chaoshan people should be a minority because they have their own unique eating habits, their own unique culture, and their own unique language. Fourth of the Eighteen Weird Things of Shantou: Porridge is the favorite medicine and dish. The language of Chaoshan is very different from that of the mainland, and the food is also very different. Take breakfast for example. We eat porridge, fried dough sticks, noodles, vermicelli, etc., while Chaoshan people basically eat porridge. Porridge is the favorite of Chaoshan people. Five of the Eighteen Weird Things in Chaoshan: Live crabs and clams are not bad to eat When talking about Chaoshan food, people will first think of raw seafood. Indeed, when Chaoshan entertains guests, this first dish is often a show-off to outsiders: a pot of raw clams, boiled in boiling water and served immediately. Each one is as big as a coin. They are broken open to reveal the fresh meat and blood. Put some hot sauce in your mouth. The master will advise you: drink the bloody water! Will you be surprised at this time? This kind of eating of hair and blood really stunned the people of mainland culture. Didn't Lu Xun once praise the first person to eat crabs? But this is just something we rarely see. This way of eating of Chaoshan people only retains the oldest tradition of maritime civilization, and is very common in Chaoshan and even coastal areas. Sixth of the Eighteen Chaoshan Monsters: Become a God Faster in August. Chinese gods can be roughly divided into two categories: celestial gods and human gods. The gods are mythical gods, such as the Jade Emperor, and the gods are people who are admired by future generations, such as Guan Yu. Guan Yu, the human god, is worshiped in many places, but there is one human god worshiped in Chaoshan area that only they worship and not others. This god is Han Yu. Seventh of the Eighteen Chaoshan Weirdness: Worshiping Gods Will Destroy Gods Everywhere worships gods, they all bow down and worship them, they are extremely pious. But this is not the case in Chaoshan. Eighth of the Eighteen Weird Things in Chaoshan: Well water is not bad when sea water floods it. Well water is fresh and sea water is salty. If the two are mixed together, the well water will also become salty. But there are some strange wells in Chaoshan. No matter how much the sea water floods, the well water will never taste bad.
