The first thousand one hundred and ninety-eight chapters fall into the water
"Liu Mingzhi, can you go to a place with me? I won't delay you for long."
"Hush!"
Liu Mingzhi reined in his horse and looked at Wenren Yunshu in surprise: "Do you still have some unfinished business?"
Wenren Yunshu nodded silently: "I want to visit my hometown in the capital. It was my grandfather's former Imperial Master's Mansion."
Liu Mingzhi was stunned: "You still don't give up, thinking that the old man might be in the old house?"
Wenren Yunshu nodded and shook his head: "Yes! No, I have a very important thing stored in the old house. I want to get it back. Can you come with me?"
Liu Mingzhi thought for a moment and sighed: "Okay, just for the sake of the old man, I will work harder with you. Yun'er, Sister Ya, Wei'er, you and Chengzhi Yaoyao will go on your way first. Remember to always take the official route."
"If Miss Yun Shu and I still can't catch up with you, you can wait for me and Miss Yun Shu at the Mingzhu Restaurant where we will stay in Yuezhou when we come back."
The three sisters Qi Yun didn't say much, their eyes lingered on Liu and Young Master Liu with strange eyes, and they nodded slightly before riding away.
Liu Mingzhi is not worried about the safety of Qi Yun and the others. As long as they do not encounter a large army encirclement and suppression, based on the past experiences of the three women, the possibility of encountering a crisis is extremely slim.
"Miss Yunshu, lead the way!"
Wenren Yunshu nodded silently, turned his horse's head and rushed towards the east gate of the capital.
Liu Mingzhi looked at Wenren Yunshu who was leading the way in astonishment: "Miss Yunshu, don't you want to go home? This direction is leading out of the city!"
Wenren Yunshu didn't say much, lightly whipped his horsewhip and hurried on the road at a leisurely pace. Liu Mingzhi had no choice but to follow.
"Gudu, help me."
"Who knows how to swim? Please save people quickly. Can you bear to let a nice little girl drown like this?"
"What you say is nice, why don't you go down and save people? If we know how to swim, do we still need you to nag here?"
"Don't rescue people who have fallen into the water randomly. They can grab whatever they can. Don't end up risking your own life if you fail to rescue them."
"That's right. We are all old and young. Who will take care of them if we die?"
"Everyone, stop watching. You guys go find long sticks. We can take off our belts and tie them into ropes. We can help as much as we don't know how to use water."
"Yes, yes, I don't know how to swim and can't do anything. I'll help you as much as you can. It's really hard to watch such a ten-year-old kid drowning alive in front of you."
"Little girl, grab the belt quickly and we'll pull you up!"
On the gurgling river, a little girl about ten years old kept struggling to catch the belt rope thrown by someone on the river bank.
However, the rope that seems to be very close turns out to be an insurmountable chasm in the eyes of a person who does not know how to swim.
The people on the river bank were also anxious. They were about to sink into the little girl exhausted, but there was nothing they could do.
"No, the river surges during the autumn flood season, and the current is a bit turbulent. The rope is swinging in the river, and this little girl can't hold it at all!"
"Why hasn't the man with the stick come back yet?"
"It's several miles to the city gate. It will definitely take time."
"Then what should I do? When I got the stick back, the little girl had already disappeared."
The sound of splashing into the water made everyone on the river bank subconsciously look in shock. On the surface of the fast-flowing river, there was a young boy of about 12 or 13 years old. He was shirtless and only wearing underwear, and he was facing the wind and waves towards the little boy struggling in the river.
The girl swam away hard.
A thought arose in everyone's mind: "Young man is so good at water!"
"Mom, please don't move around. We won't be able to survive if you move any more."
The people on the river bank came to their senses and looked anxious again.
The expected thing happened. Human's survival instinct made the little girl hug the boy tightly, as if she had grasped a life-saving straw.
As expected, the young man drank a few mouthfuls of river water.
"careful!"
"Ah, my mother's back is on my young master's back!"
A thick tree root directly passed through the young man's back. The young man screamed and desperately carried the little girl to swim towards the shore, leaving bright red blood on the river and flowing down the river.
In a desperate situation, the young man threw the shivering little girl to the ground and sat down on the ground, breathing heavily.
"Dad is right, you must never be a good person in vain. This young master almost died young."
"Xiao Langjun, there was a big cut on your back by a tree root. It's bleeding a lot. Let's bandage the wound for you. Please bear with it!"
"Thank you, uncle. Do you have any golden sore medicine? Apply it to me first!"
"Young man, who always carries golden sore medicine with them when they go out? You just have to endure it for a while!"
"Okay, I'll bear with you. Broken wood hurts more than being bitten by a dog. They are all the unreliable guy of Big Brother. If I had known that I would have followed him to Tianxiang Tower, wouldn't I?
He is only two months shy of thirteen years old. He is really looking down on others. I wonder if he is as majestic as this young master!"
Everyone didn't know what the young man was muttering, and they hurriedly bandaged the wound on his back.
After a long time, the young man regained his strength and his breathing calmed down. He looked at the frightened little girl and cursed angrily: "Why can't you think of throwing yourself into the river at such a young age? This young master almost died young just because of you. You
Where are you, sir? Why haven't you shown up when such a big thing happened?"
Everyone looked at the young man who was angry at the little girl and didn't say anything. After all, he almost died in the river trying to save others. It was inevitable that they would carry resentment for the rest of their lives in their hearts, so it was natural to complain.
If he is still talking angrily even though he is almost dead, then he is really mentally ill.
"This young man's accent sounds like a Jiangnan accent. He was born in a land of plenty, no wonder he is so good at water!"
"Yes, yes! Who dares to go down and save people if the water is not good enough?"
"You have also seen what happened just now. If the young man hadn't held his breath and swam up, the young lady Bei would have drowned while holding her together."
Although the little girl is not very old, she is absolutely beautiful. Her face is pale but still dewy and makes people feel pity. She will definitely be a great beauty in the future.
When she heard the boy who saved her yelling at her, the frightened little girl raised her head and looked at the boy in panic.
The boy's shirtless appearance made the little girl a little shy and confused, but she wanted to try her best to see her savior clearly.
"Shu'er didn't commit suicide by throwing herself into the river, she accidentally slipped and fell into the water."
When he heard that the little girl had slipped and fell into the water, the boy's lips curled up for a few times before he said any more radical words.
"You are so young. Where are the adults in your family? Why are you the only one out here!"
"I went to court and I sneaked out!"
"Going to court? It turns out that you are still a daughter of an official family and a lady. But tell me what you think. You are not enjoying your good life and sneaking out of the city."
"What if you are kidnapped by a trafficker and sold to a brothel to see what you will do."
The little girl shrank her neck and looked at the boy in horror with tears in her eyes: "Shu'er will never dare to sneak out again!"
"Young lady, you really don't know how dangerous the world is. Can you leave by yourself? If you can, get up and go home as soon as possible. Let your family cook a bowl of ginger soup for you to drink. It is easy to catch wind and cold in autumn, so go home as soon as possible!"
