Chapter 48 Two empty(1/2)

As soon as they entered the water, Liu Ruiying and Deng Pengfei swam forward quickly. Although it was already spring, the water in the Taishang River was not really warm. Deng Pengfei swam very quickly and was always ahead of Liu Ruiying. The two swam a distance from one to another, and Liu Ruiying felt that something was missing. He stopped, stepped on the water under his feet, and looked around, but he didn't see Bi Xiangyu's figure.

Deng Pengfei was still busy swimming forward. When he was about to reach the shore, the sound of slapping water gradually faded away. Only then did Liu Ruiying hear the sound of extremely irregular water splashes coming from behind, mixed with some sobs. When he looked back, he saw Bi Xiangyu still churning in place! He didn't know the nature of the water at all, just like a land duck falling into the water. He could only raise his head desperately and flutter his hands and feet to make your neck exposed on the water.

Seeing this scene, Liu Ruiying wanted to curse her... I don't know if she was too anxious or was in a daze, but inadvertently he choked hard by the river. The violent coughing made his whole chest feel unbearable pain, so he had to raise his right fist and smash it hard on his chest a few times, gritted his teeth and swam towards Bi Xiangyu at the same time.

Seeing Liu Ruiying turn around, Bi Xiangyu suddenly became much calmer, and the splashes of water were not as intense as before.

Liu Ruiying swam in front of him, reached out to support Bi Xiangyu's waist from underwater. He lifted it hard, and his upper body exposed a lot of water. Bi Xiangyu gasped in a big mouth, and did not forget to pat Liu Ruiying's shoulder to express his gratitude.

Half dragging and pulling, Liu Ruiying finally brought Bi Xiangyu to the shore. If Deng Pengfei hadn't pulled the two of them up, he would have been exhausted and soft like a water plant.

"There is no water play in Taishang River!"

Before he could recover, a team of river officials inspecting the Taishang River walked behind the three of them and said sternly.

"My two brothers have drunk too much, and they are not careful for a moment and fall into the water!"

Deng Pengfei said, then he leaned into the collar of his chest with his right hand, trying to find a silver note to settle the matter.

But his clothes were wet and there were dense crystal water droplets hanging on his hair. Some of them dripped into his ears along his temples, which was very uncomfortable.

Of course, these officials would not believe what they said in this way.

The silver notes on the chest and the collars were all stuck together because they were soaked by water wheels and turned into a lump. If they were forced to split, they would become fragmented. Each silver notes on Deng Pengfei's body were denominations of one thousand taels. At this moment, a little force was applied under his fingertips, and the total 1,000 taels of silver was wafted.

However, he was unable to take out a separate silver note. He had no choice but to take out all the silver notes that were condensed into pieces and think about it back and forth.

Have these river officials seen so many silver notes? I'm afraid it's tens of thousands of taels! I suddenly looked at Deng Pengfei with his eyes shining, unable to squeeze out urging, but he had no intention of leaving. He just kept guarding so quietly, but the expression on his face was much more relaxed than when he first questioned.

Liu Ruiying turned her back to them, her legs and feet drooped on the river bank, and she looked at Jiang Linlin's pleasure boat with her eyes fixed on her eyes. Judging from the storming intensity, Li Yun and Li Huailei seemed to be fighting behind the pleasure boat. As for the final result, it was no longer a problem that Liu Ruiying had to worry about. However, he felt that after returning to the Zhongdu Inspection Department this time, he must learn more about his parents' affairs, especially what the sword left for him was... How did it make Dingxi King Huo Wang and Donghai Yuntai so eager.

In fact, he had not found out about his life experience, but the seniors of the Investigation Office at that time were still young, so they could make excuses. Later, after a long time, they forgot that there was no pain when they were born. At most, they thought of their own differences and felt a little lonely.

Pain is caused by memories and loss.

Liu Ruiying has never gained it, and there is no way to talk about this loss.

After sighing, he roughly twisted the water in his clothes a few times. The wet clothes not only became heavy, but also pressed tightly against him, like a piece of breathable plaster, which was very uncomfortable.

After roughly cleaning up himself, Liu Ruiying then put away her legs, stood up and turned around to look at Deng Pengfei and Bi Xiangyu.

Deng Pengfei was still trying to peel off a piece of silver bill in his hand, but he still failed. There were already many paper scraps under his feet, all of which were stripped of silver bills, which were almost three or four thousand taels. From the painful expressions on the faces of these river officials, it can be seen that they must have believed Deng Pengfei's previous words now.

Only those who drink too much will jump into Taishang River with so many silver notes, and only those who drink too much will not react after losing thousands of taels for no reason. Some people will cry, cry, fall, beat, and have a direction in their minds when they drink too much. But some people will look calmer and more rational than usual when they drink too much. In fact, such people are the most terrifying, because if you don’t know what facts, they will suddenly explode and do something incredible. As for the former, as long as no one cares about him and throw him aside, the alcohol will be over soon.

Although these river officials were humble and polite in the Taishang River, they had seen all kinds of life. No matter how drunk people were, they should be surprised, but at this moment, they seemed to see a monster when they looked at Deng Pengfei.

Drunk people will remember what they care about most if they lose their minds.

Most of the people who come to Taishang River are merchants, and merchants are most concerned about money by pursuing profit. The most important thing they save is the dignitaries or the romantic second-generation ancestors. Which of these people is not around them for this group of dog legs? But they never hold silver notes on their own. Even if they drink too much, some people around them will send him to bed safely, and they will never let him jump into the river.

Seeing that Deng Pengfei was only sitting on the ground, and Liu Ruiying, who was facing away from them, they felt that he must not be a high-ranking official. Moreover, Deng Pengfei was gentle and gentle. Although he was the eldest son of the Deng family in Zhongdu, he did not have the habit of bullying others and domineering as a second-generation ancestor.

But when they saw these silver notes in his hands, like straw paper wiping their butts, they felt that the person in front of them was really a monster...

Liu Ruiying just found this scene funny.

He also had some exchanged silver ingots on his body, so he took out a piece of it and threw it to the leader of the Heguan.

After bowing, they didn't say anything. These river officials left with a clear understanding. However, when they left, they turned around frequently and looked at the piece of silver notes in Deng Pengfei's hand.

"You can separate naturally when you dry!"

Liu Ruiying walked up to grab Deng Pengfei's arm and said.

"It made Liu Shengqi laugh... I somehow wanted to peel out one, but I seemed to be crazy."

Deng Pengfei said embarrassedly.

Liu Ruiying smiled, pulled up Bi Xiangyu, who was still slumped on the ground and was still breathing rapidly, tidied up his clothes, and then called the two of them to walk forward.

When they were mixed into the crowd, they were all kinds of bizarre. The three of them were soaked in clothes and hair that they didn't seem abrupt. They just felt that the pleasure boat was always behind them and felt uneasy.

"How come you don't know the nature of water?"

After a while, Deng Pengfei saw that Bi Xiangyu had recovered and asked.

"I have never known water..."

Bi Xiangyu said awkwardly.

"Why didn't you say anything when you discussed leaving before?"

Deng Pengfei asked back.

People who don’t know the nature of water can still stand by the river beach and play. But jumping directly into the river like they did before would be like seeking death. If Liu Ruiying hadn’t been keen and investigated, Bi Xiangyu would probably have sank to the bottom of the river and accompany the fragrant souls who died in the Taishang River.

"I forgot about it so urgently at that time... Besides, I don't think this seems to be a difficult thing. The pleasure boat is not far from the shore. As long as you slap a few times, you can get ashore no matter what."

Bi Xiangyu said.

"You were born in the water town of the King of Pingnan. You have been doing business with Donghai Yuntai over the years. I guess you have gone to sea so many times that I can't remember it. I really didn't expect it to be a land duck!"

Deng Pengfei said, with a slight sarcastic tone.

"I'm going to tell you... Not only do I not know the nature of water, but I'm also seasick. It's not a forced one, I will never go out to sea. Before going to sea, I will ask the doctor to prescribe two pills, and I will drink it before boarding the boat. When I get to the place, I wake me up. After a while, I just finished eating."

Bi Xiangyu said.

Deng Pengfei never knew about these things, nor had he heard them mention them. Not only did he find it interesting to say them now, but he also had a kind of luck that would be in danger and be in trouble.

Liu Ruiying, who was walking in front, couldn't help laughing out loud when she heard the conversation between the two.

"Fortunately, Mr. Bi is surrounded by reliable people, otherwise he would have been thrown into the sea to make bait for fish and shrimp."

Bi Xiangyu was also very dissatisfied after hearing this.

Including the fact that Liu Ruiying rescued him from the river, he had saved two lives. When people make mistakes, they always say that death is to blame. In fact, everyone has only one life. If they don’t want to live, death is enough. Those who say deaths do not want to die the least.

The person who really wants to die will not make a statement, and after he makes up his mind, he will do it. Just as a great favor is not grateful, Bi Xiangyu is grateful to Liu Ruiying, but he can't even say a polite word.

"Liu Shengqi, we are going now..."

Liu Ruiying has been walking in front of the road. Deng Pengfei felt that his purpose was clear, but he just didn't know where he was going.

"Let's go find my nephew, Huanong. He should be with Miss Jiang, the owner of the pleasure boat."

Liu Ruiying said.

"When I was on the pleasure boat, I vaguely heard someone had come?"

Deng Pengfei continued to ask.

"I met both old friends when I was in Bogu Building. I never thought that they met here."

Liu Ruiying said.

When he thought of Shen Qing, he felt a little headache... This old man not only had an unpredictable mind, but his temper was as stinky as the stones in the pit. It seemed that he was the only one in his world, and everything around him had nothing to do with him. However, a person who could use wine as ink and wrote letters to fill the bed was not normal. But this old man had extremely high martial arts cultivation, which made people silent in front of him.

"I am also familiar with Bogu Building. I wonder if these two old friends from Liu Shengqi have heard of them."

Deng Pengfei thought about it again and again, but he still asked.

What happened in the pleasure boat shocked him.

Although Liu Ruiying is his old friend, he is always wary of others, so he still wants to know more clearly.

"A named Shen Qingqiu seems to have a close relationship with Di Weitai, the owner of Bogu Building. In Bogu Building, he is the person from Leyouyuan, and lives in a broken wooden house in a corner of Leyouyuan. If it weren't for the accident, I wouldn't have known him."

Liu Ruiying said.

"Let's see why the Yuan people came to Taishang River?"

Deng Pengfei asked in confusion.

"It seems that he had an agreement with Di Weitai. When I was in Bogu Building, the agreement expired and he left. As for another person who had a moon today, the largest wine shop run by the Leyou Yuan. There was also a stage inside. At night, the talented men in Bogu Building would have a drink. Even Lu Mingming, one of the seven saints of Wendao, was a regular customer in the store."

Liu Ruiying explained.

He did not mention the changes that happened to Youyue in Chao.

Even if he knows some things, there is no need to say them. After all, he doesn't know what kind of mentality Jin Chao Youyue's attitude towards that matter, but if he can say them without hesitation, Liu Ruiying would not stop him.

Only you have the most power to tell others about everyone's affairs. No matter how close the relationship is, it is inevitable that you will be infected with your own emotions when speaking about others. Sometimes a tone or a pause is enough to mislead others and cause the essence of the whole thing to change drastically.

Deng Pengfei did not continue asking.

He lowered his head and didn't know what he was pondering, and followed Liu Ruiying forward with his feet.

As he walked, a store along the street suddenly opened the window on the second floor. Liu Ruiying looked up and saw that it was Zhao Mingming standing in front of the window and smiling at him.

There are shoulder to shoulder on the long street.

Not only did Liu Ruiying see it, but countless passers-by also saw Zhao Mingming standing in front of the window on the second floor and stopped unconsciously.

The people following behind were too far away and couldn't see clearly and didn't know what was happening. The sudden stop of the abortion caused many people to fall...

Zhao Mingming didn't expect that she wanted to call Liu Ruiying upstairs, but it caused a lot of riots. She was so shocked that she hurriedly closed the window.

"This girl is so charming... I just saw her staring at you in a daze. Could it be that she was interested in you?"

Bi Xiangyu said jokingly.

"I don't know either, why don't you go upstairs and ask me later?"
To be continued...
