There were many people trying to get on the ferry. After the two of them hesitated for a moment, twenty or thirty people already rushed onto the ferry.
"I told you earlier, let's go quickly, go quickly." The fat man turned around and walked quickly.
Nanfeng followed closely behind, and when the two of them approached the ferry, the boatman had already untied the mooring rope and was preparing to sail. He hurriedly and slowly got on the stern of the ferry before it sailed.
"Sit down." The boatman shouted, "The wind is strong and the water is deep. If you fall, you will not survive."
There were forty or fifty people on the boat. The Taoist Zhike was originally sitting on the bow of the boat and did not notice Nanfeng. When the boatman shouted, Taoist Zhike turned around. When he saw Nanfeng, he suddenly looked confused and stared at him.
Seeing that he was recognized by the other party, Nanfeng suddenly became wise and waved his hands at Taoist Zhike and shouted, "Taoist Master Linggui, Taoist Master Linggui."
While shouting, he squeezed his way from the crowd towards the bow of the boat. Finally, he squeezed into the bow of the boat and said to the Taoist Zhike, "Taoist Master Linggui, do you still recognize me?"
"Who are you?" The Taoist Zhike just saw that he looked familiar and had not yet remembered who he was.
"Taoist Master Linggui, you don't recognize me. I'm Nanfeng. I'm very familiar with Taoist Master Lingxi." Nanfeng reported his family name. Now that things have come to this, even if he doesn't say it, the other party will remember him sooner or later. Who, instead of doing this, should be more straightforward and try to turn bad things into good things.
"Are you the little man who drives the truck and dumps dung?" Taoist Zhike thought of him.
"Yes, it's me, what are you doing here?" Nanfeng pretended to be happy to meet an old friend in a foreign land.
"I have an uncle who lives in Jiangbei. He passed away a few days ago. I came to attend the funeral. I haven't seen you for several years. You have grown taller." Zhike Taoist said.
"It's not much better. I never expected to meet Taoist Priest here. It's very good. It's very good. We can go together when we go back to the mountain. Just take care of me. I'll treat you and Taoist Master Lingxi to tea and wine when I go back." Nan The wind pretends to be close.
At this time, the ferry had left the river, and the wind was strong on the river. The ferryman shouted again to ask the ferry passengers who had not sat down to sit down or squat down.
Taoist Zhike sat on the bow of the boat, and Nanfeng squatted next to him, "Taoist Master, I haven't had lunch yet. I still have some dry food here. If you don't mind it..."
"I've eaten, I've eaten," Taoist Zhike waved his hand to interrupt Nanfeng. He had an impression of Nanfeng, and the most profound impression was that Nanfeng was well versed in human relations and always gave gifts to Lingxizi. "In the early years, I listened to Lingxizi. Senior Brother Xi said that you have been accepted by our sect, so why did you suddenly disappear?"
Hearing what the Taoist Zhike said, Nanfeng knew in his heart that only a few people knew that he left Taiqing Sect. Tianmingzi and others could not pursue him with great fanfare, nor could they tell him the real reason for leaving Taiqing Sect. If it is made public, and there are nearly ten thousand people in Taiqing Sect, it is impossible for Zhike Taoists to have a deep impression on him.
"It's hard to put it into words." Nanfeng sighed and shook his head.
This Zhike Taoist was named Linggui. When Lingguizi heard what Nanfeng said, he didn't ask further questions. He had no friendship with Nanfeng, at best they were just acquaintances.
After sighing, Nanfeng took out the dry food from the bag and handed it to Ling Guizi, "Taoist Master, eat some more."
Ling Guizi waved his hand but did not take it.
"Taoist Priest, is Taoist Priest Lingxi okay?" Nanfeng took the opportunity to inquire about the news.
"Fortunately, fortunately, Senior Brother Lingxi has been promoted to Assistant of the Secular Affairs Hall." Ling Guizi said.
"How is Master Tiancheng?" Nanfeng asked again. In the Taiqing Sect, Tianchengzi, Tianqizi and others were in the same camp.
"Uncle Tiancheng was promoted to Jushan last year and is still serving as an assistant in the Hall of Harmony. Why did you come back to the mountain this time?" Ling Guizi asked.
Nan Feng smiled awkwardly, "I regret that I left Taiqing for the sake of my children's affair. I came back this time to find a way to survive."
Ling Guizi nodded when he heard this. He was not very enthusiastic towards him before, but this time he became even colder.
"Taoist Master, is Senior Sister Lingyan still on the mountain?" Nanfeng asked again.
"I'm not very familiar with him, I don't know." Ling Guizi said casually.
"Oh, how are you doing with Master Tianqi recently?" Nanfeng asked again.
Ling Guizi didn't want to talk to him at first, but he knew that he was very familiar with Ling Xizi, so he couldn't treat him coldly, so he said, "Uncle Tianqi has been traveling for many years and has not returned to the mountain yet."
"Are the immortal bodies of the two master uncles still healthy?" Nanfeng continued to ask.
"It's okay, it's okay." Ling Guizi was already a little annoyed.
When asked about the situation he was concerned about, Nanfeng calmed down, took out the braised pork from the bag, and invited Ling Guizi to eat it.
Naturally, Ling Guizi wouldn't eat his food, but seeing that he diligently paid for the ferry, he didn't bother him as much as before.
There were four sailors on this ferry, all of whom were in their prime. Under the command of the old helmsman, the ferry was quickly swung to the center of the river, and it would not take long before it would reach the south bank.
After thinking anxiously, Nanfeng began to care, and then kept saying flattering words to Ling Guizi, but Ling Guizi responded coldly and ignored him.
After arriving at the center of the river, the wind became even stronger, and it was extremely difficult for the boatmen to paddle. Seeing that one of the boatmen's oars slowed down and the ferry tilted to the left, a strong man wanted to help, but just as he was about to reach out, he was scolded back, "Get out of here." , do you want to kill us?"
The strong man was scolded and felt unhappy, but soon he realized that the boatman had deliberately slowed down his oar speed and tilted the ferry to the left to avoid the strong wind.
After half a stick of incense, the ferry finally approached the south bank. Ling Guizi and Nanfeng were at the bow. Seeing that the ferry was about to dock, Ling Guizi stood up and prepared to get off the boat.
Nanfeng also stood up and jumped to the shore when the ferry was still about five feet away from the shore.
Because he jumped too fast, his feet slipped and his body tilted, and he was about to lose his footing and fall into the water.
Seeing that he was about to fall into the river, Nanfeng shouted loudly and stretched out his hands to grab at the same time.
Ling Guizi was very close to him, and before Nan Feng fell into the water, he reached out and grabbed his left arm and dragged him onto the ferry.
"Thank you, Taoist Priest, for saving me in this critical situation." Nanfeng pretended to be afraid.
"Be calm, what are you in a hurry for?" Ling Guizi said, frowning slightly, grabbing Nan Feng's arm with his right hand and sliding it down towards Nan Feng Cun Guan Chi, "Who ruined your cultivation?"
"It's a long story." Nanfeng quickly retracted his arm.
Ling Guizi just asked casually and didn't care much. When Nanfeng didn't answer, he didn't ask further questions. When the ferry docked, he jumped off the boat.
After Nanfeng got off the boat, he followed Ling Guizi and asked to go with him. Ling Guizi accepted him and paid for the ferry in advance. He also gave him a hand before. They didn't owe him anything and didn't want to talk to him. He left him alone on the pretext that he had other things to do. .
After Ling Guizi walked away, the fat man came over and said, "Why did you pretend to slip?"
"Am I pretending to be different?" Nan Feng asked back.
"Like, but I knew it was a lie as soon as you called me." The fat man shook his head, "Not to mention falling down, even if you encounter something big, you won't scream."
Nanfeng smiled and followed the crowd southward. At the same time, he whispered, "This person will probably talk about me to others after he goes back. I want to use his words to make my enemies mistakenly think that I am cultivated." Deposed, so they won’t see me as a threat.”
"If you fall, he will know that you have no cultivation?" The fat man didn't understand.
"When he grabbed my arm, he took the opportunity to test my pulse." Nanfeng said.
The fat man didn't react for a moment, and after thinking for a moment, he suddenly realized, "Did you let him grab your arm on purpose?"
Nan Feng nodded.
The fat man was horrified by Nanfeng's careful thinking. His face was astonished and he was stunned and speechless.
After being stunned, the fat man took a few steps to catch up with Nan Feng, "Have you ever thought that if he doesn't pull you, you will fall into the water."
"I know water and I can't drown." Nanfeng said casually. You can't be 100% sure about anything. If you dare to bet if you are 60% sure, you should bet!
"That's a big river, not Chang'an's moat. If you want to deceive them, you can tell him directly and let him feel your pulse without risking yourself." Fatty said.
"Never treat others as fools." Nanfeng said sternly.
The fat man curled his lips, "By the way, you know that medicine..."
"Stop talking." Nanfeng raised his hand to interrupt the fat man. The conversation of several warriors not far ahead caught his attention. There were four warriors in the group, three of them were guarding a luxurious carriage, and the other was guarding a luxurious carriage. They got off the boat earlier. The four of them were talking at this time. The people waiting asked the person from Jiangbei, "Where is Mr. Gongshu?" ', the latter replied, 'Mr. Gongshu went to Yuqingzong angrily and didn't know what to do? I'm afraid it will take some time to arrive. '
The four of them were talking by the roadside. Nanfeng couldn't stop and listen for a long time. He could only walk normally and lower his head.
Staying far away from the four of them, the fat man looked at Nanfeng doubtfully, "Why are you laughing?"
