Chapter 345. Legend of the carp
Mei Yingxue's eyes, which were originally a little gloomy, instantly lit up, he grabbed Chu Yunfei's arm, and said with some excitement: "So, you also think that their Feng family is a little abnormal, right?" I knew there was going to be something strange about this? I don't like the woman Zhugu, it seems that I really regard myself as the master of the Feng family. But...... Doesn't seem like it? They are Miss Feng's family, and Mrs. Feng seems to have always been nice to her. She and Mrs. Feng are nominally master and servant, but in fact they are sisters. Wouldn't such speculation be too arbitrary? And ......"
"It's all just my guess. Don't forget, the most intolerable thing for a woman is that her husband has other women in her heart, unless she doesn't care about her husband at all. It's just that Feng Yuanwai is a person who values love and righteousness. I think...... Miss Feng's accident may not have been an accident. Zhu Gu's attitude is very revealing. Chu Yunfei frowned and said.
"You can't be suspicious of the people of the Feng family, right? Isn't that human heart too terrible? Impossible...... Have you forgotten Soyu's guess? What she suspected was Xiao Zhenfu......" Mei Yingxue said with some uneasiness.
"The beautiful woman has words, so you just follow her train of thought, right? But it's not that simple. At least there is something wrong with this person named Zhugu, she is constantly lying. Chu Yunfei shook his head helplessly. Mei Yingxue is really incorrigible, he is afraid that he will not be able to recover from Shuyu's statement for a while. "Doubt everything, be careful to verify, isn't this the principle of how we do things? But then, I wanted to meet someone else. ”
It is still on the banks of the bustling Bianhe River, and groups of people walk together. Perhaps because of the spring, more and more people are going out to have fun. The small store is full of people. Have a few drinks here, watch the people coming and going, listen to a little song, or listen to a rumor that you don't know where it came from. Especially in the past month, Miss Whelan threw herself into the water three years ago and was mentioned again, and Xiaofu, the guy he had seen before Miss Whelan fell into the water, became a big celebrity, and many people rushed here from several hotels to listen to Xiaofu talk about the situation that day. Chu Yunfei took Mei Yingxue with him, and it took a lot of effort to finally find a place to sit in the corner of the wall inside. The two of them asked for some soju and side dishes, and listened to people's small talk.
"Didn't you already inquire about it here? Could it be that there is something new to be there? Mei Yingxue obviously didn't like such a lively place, and glared at Chu Yunfei dissatisfied.
Chu Yunfei laughed, lowered his voice and said, "Don't you know that the more lively the place, the more it is a gathering place for rumors?" Look, isn't the guy who chatted with the guests the guy named Xiaofu? ”
Not far away, a young man with a teapot and a towel on his shoulder was talking with his eyebrows fluttering, and his hands kept gesturing when he was excited. Apparently this story has been told countless times, but the people on the side seem to be enthusiastic. Except for a few regular customers who were unimpressed, most of them were listening very carefully. Occasionally, someone would whisper something about something.
"That's what you're talking about? I've sent someone to inquire. I don't think his word can be trusted. Mei Yingxue shook her head and said, "At first glance, he is the kind of person who looks more confused." It stands to reason that he couldn't have said such a thing out loud. I think he's just relying on this, showing off himself. ”
Chu Yunfei nodded, and shook his head again: "I think it's the owner of this hotel, and I want to take advantage of this limelight to attract more guests." So, I thought I'd come to him later. ”
"Did you say that the woman who fell into the water became a carp spirit?" The guy said suddenly.
Such an inexplicable sentence really attracted the attention of countless people. The hotel, which was still a little noisy, became quiet in an instant. This situation naturally made the young man very proud. An elderly man on the side touched his beard and said repeatedly, "Carp spirit? How so? Legend has it that a carp will turn into a dragon as soon as it jumps over the dragon gate. When you say that, aren't you afraid of offending Hebo? ”
This sentence really quieted down many people. Chu Yunfei shook his head, I'm afraid this will arouse those people's greater interest, right? The legendary Hebo is the river god of the Yellow River, and there are naturally countless elves under him to assist in handling things. The carp essence is a natural assistant. He looked at the young man and asked loudly, "You said that young lady is a carp spirit?" Why? Did you see something? ”
"yes. Haven't you heard? At that time, after Miss Feng fell into the water, there were countless carp around her, and there were carps of all colors. It was the most spectacular situation I've ever seen in my life. Xiao Fu's eyes lit up and he continued to say loudly.
Such a statement has apparently aroused a lot of interest. Xiaofu seemed to be unsatisfied, but the owner of the shop had already begun to shout loudly for him not to gossip. Everyone fell into the discussion again, obviously Xiaofu's statement has aroused the interest of countless people, and I am afraid that it will lead to a lot of absurd stories, right?
Chu Yunfei knew very well that the more bizarre the statement, the more people were willing to listen. Especially at this juncture of rumors. There is still a little helplessness in his heart, I am afraid that it is these people in the hotel who have no control over the whim for a while, which will cause so many rumors, right?
After finding an opportunity, Chu Yunfei still called Xiaofu in front of him and asked him about that night. The shopkeeper was a little dissatisfied at first, but when Xiaofu handed the shopkeeper a lot more silver than a table of wine, he didn't say anything more and motioned for Xiaofu to come over.
Xiao Fu told the story again: he lived in the hotel with another guy on weekdays. It was about three watches that night when he vaguely saw two people standing on the other side of the river. He heard a woman's voice singing in a low voice, and he was curious at the time, thinking that it was a young man's tryst in the middle of the night, after all, it was not unusual. But he didn't expect to hear the news that someone had fallen into the water and died the next day. He patted his head with some annoyance, and after a while he said continuously: "I really didn't expect it, it was too unexpected." You know, she's going to fall overboard, and I'm supposed to stay there anyway, and I'll save her life anyway. ”
