With a loud bang, the Scarlet-blooded Phoenix-billed knife stopped just a few inches above his head. At the critical moment, Huang Zhong directly withdrew his strength. His control of the strength was meticulous, so that he could not hurt Gan Ning 100%.
The long knife was put away, but the air flow it brought up would not stop. The blow made Gan Ning unable to open his eyes. The crown on his head was also blown off, and his long hair was scattered, looking a little embarrassed.
"Hoo!" "Hoo!" Gan Ning kept breathing heavily. Walking between life and death made him feel dazed for a while, and it took him a while to recover.
"Thank you, Brother Huang, for showing mercy." Gan Ning was completely convinced and saluted with clasped fists respectfully.
"Hahaha, Brother Gan is too polite. We are just comparing notes with each other. Besides, Brother Gan is young and his future is limitless." The winner will naturally have to show enough generosity. Moreover, Gan Ning is indeed young.
Huang Zhong was generous with his praise.
"Thank you for the compliment, I don't deserve it." Although he said this, Gan Ning also regained some confidence. Indeed, he was still young and had a long time to come. He believed that he would never stand still.
"Brother Huang, wait a minute, I'll call the boat over!" Gan Ning became much more attentive. He didn't know how powerful Lu Bu was, the best in the world. He only knew that he couldn't withstand the three moves of the middle-aged man in front of him.
Given the opportunity to entertain such a master, he must find an opportunity to ask for advice.
It was a bit laborious to get the carriage on board, but fortunately they were all very strong, so it wasn't too difficult. Only when they reached the river did Gan Ning remember to ask Huang Zhong where he was going.
"Just get to the other side, I still have to head north." Huang Zhong replied casually.
Gan Ning rolled his eyes and asked: "Where is Brother Huang's destination? I happen to be going down the river, why not give him a ride. After all, the bumpy carriage is not as fast as the boat."
Huang Zhong thought for a while and found out that his original intention was to go all the way north from Jingzhou, reach Wancheng, and then go all the way east to Qingzhou Linzi. He also received Liu Bei's letter.
Originally, Liu Bei couldn't invite him. After all, Liu Biao, who was just around the corner, also sent a letter to recruit him. However, because of his son Huang Xu's illness, he had no intention of pursuing an official career and directly refused.
After all, if his son is gone, what’s the point of being an official?
However, he didn't know how Liu Bei knew about his son's condition. The letter said that there was a way to cure his son's disease, and he was at least 70% sure, and he hoped he would come and take a look.
Not to mention 70%, he would go even if it was 30%. Here he kept begging Zhang Zhongjing to treat his son, but he could only delay the cure. Seeing his son's condition getting worse day by day, he almost went crazy.
The main direction of Zhang Zhongjing's research was the treatment of typhoid-like diseases. There were not many ways to treat his son's illness. However, Zhang Zhongjing was already a famous doctor in the world, so he began to prepare to go north as soon as he received the letter.
He did not doubt that Liu Bei, the dignified Han clan clan official, the prefect of Qijun, and the future lord of Qingzhou, would not come all the way to write a letter to tease him, saying that he was 70% sure, which must be at least 70% sure, although he did not know whether Liu Bei was
He doesn't know anything about miracle doctors, but...whatever!
That's how today's scene happened.
"I'm going to Qijun, Qingzhou. I'd rather go north via Jingzhou. If Brother Gan is willing to help, it would be good to go to Yangzhou, go to Guangling, or go north from Xuzhou." After thinking about it, Huang Zhong said.
Gan Ning's eyes lit up and he said in surprise: "Brother Huang is also going to meet Liu Bei and Liu Xuande?"
"Eh!" Huang Zhong looked at Gan Ning. Could it be... It may not be the case. It's normal for Liu Xuande to know about me, Huang Zhong, and Gan Ning. After all, Liu Bei's recruitment order said 'On merit', so it must not be true at all.
I am concerned about the identity of the water thief Gan Ning.
"Yes, I also received Liu Fujun's autograph letter, which is why I came to this trip. I think Liu Fujun intends to establish a naval army, so I decided to take my brothers northward!" Gan Ning told the truth directly, this is not the case.
When you hide your stupidity.
Huang Zhong didn't know whether Liu Bei would establish a naval army, but he still knew that it was necessary to be prepared and take precautions. Qingzhou was close to the river, so it was not a bad idea to establish a naval army.
"In this way, in the future, you and I will become ministers of the same palace."
In an instant, the two of them felt a little closer. Of course, the main reason was that Gan Ning was showing off his martial arts here and there. It would be no exaggeration to say that he had a bright future. If Gan Ning was just a warrior who had become a warrior by practicing Qi, then it would not be possible at all.
If you can't catch Huang Zhong's eyes, it won't be of any use to you as a future colleague!
"Why don't Brother Huang come with us by sea?" Gan Ning tried his best to gain time for contact. For now and for the future, if such a master comes to Liu Bei, he will definitely become an important figure in the military, with a high and powerful position.
Huang Zhong shook his head directly, "I'm sorry, Xingba, that's my son in the car. His son is not in good health. He went to Xuande Gong this time for medical treatment. He can't withstand the bumpy sea road."
From the perspective of the two of them, the sea is just a little bigger and bumpier than the Yangtze River, and that's it!
"Okay." Of course Gan Ning will not force it. He will cherish it for a while and ask for more advice.
…
As the boat went downstream, Gan Ning once again became entangled in the gift.
"Yan Yu, when you get to Lujiang, you can lead a group of people down quietly and find out for me where the Lu family's shipbuilding craftsmen live. Well, try to find out as many good craftsmen as possible."
"Okay, leader."
In the middle of the night, after receiving the news, Gan Ning quietly touched the door, broke the door bolt with Gang Qi, waved his hand to the people behind him, "Go in, knock them all out and take them away."
More than a dozen craftsmen were quietly brought to the edge of the city. Gan Ning threw them all over the city wall one by one. Naturally, there were people below to catch them. The heavy man weighed more than a hundred kilograms. Fortunately, Gan Ning's men were all elite, including Chu.
There are only two people who have practiced Qi and become Gang, otherwise they would not be able to catch a living person thrown from a height of more than 20 meters.
Along the way, not only the Lu family, but also other families, large and small, were robbed by him. When they arrived near the mouth of the Yangtze River, the shipwrights alone robbed more than 140 people.
He has also asked about the specific craftsmanship. Without a master craftsman, there is no need to count on building a large ship or something like that, but there are no problems with fighting ships and sterns.
This is the talent pool of the family. From civilian to military, there is nothing they cannot create.
"We have to hurry up. Damn it, it's been peaceful on this road. Zhou Tai and his gang just showed their heads slightly and then shrunk. This is not like their style. Come to think of it, I will receive a letter from Liu Bei. Zhou Tai Jiang Qin
It's definitely possible, these two guys might have already gone north!" Gan Ning muttered in his mouth, while looking down on these two guys, what's the use of going north alone without using his brain!
…
"What the hell! Why is this wave so big!"
"Bah, bah, bah, so salty!"
"Reef the sails, reef the sails, the ship is going to capsize!"
"Son, turn around, turn around, if this continues, the ball will die!"
