Chapter 4

"Water thief?" As soon as Chen Ren's eyes brightened, he stood up and looked in the direction of the boatman's fingers. If he was about 200 meters away from the stern of the boat, there were four black canopies approaching. But strangely, among the four boats, there were colorful ribbons.

This is what the boatman also saw clearly the color band between the boats. Chen Ren clearly saw that the boatman's face was relaxed. Seeing Chen Ren looking at himself, the boatman quickly explained, "Sir, you can rest assured that this is not a common water thief, but a Jinfan thief. The brocade sail thief is famous for robbing the rich and helping the poor. For a boat like me, the brocade sail thief will not start

"Jin Fan thief?" Chen Ren immediately thought of a person: Gan Ning! At this time, isn't it when Gan Ning was a water thief in the Yangtze River.

"Oh?" Guo Jia on one side listened to the boatman's words and came over, "since it's a water thief, why aren't you afraid?"

After the boatman knew that he was a Jinfan thief, he relaxed and even recovered his complexion. He said to Guo Jia with a smile: "this gentleman has no idea. In the Yangtze River, as long as we are from poor people, who doesn't want to talk about the brocade fan thief. Since the Jin Fan thief came to the Yangtze River to do business, he not only robbed the rich and helped the poor, but also drove away those who had been in trouble on the Yangtze River. The poor families like us who live on the Yangtze River can live in peace and stability. "

"Interesting! Interesting! I can't imagine that there are such interesting water thieves on the Yangtze River. " Guo Jia clapped her hands and said with a laugh. She was a bit of a jerk. After drinking wine, she was even more crazy. Chen Renzhen couldn't figure out why such a person could become the first strategist under Cao Cao.

Gradually, the boat passed by Chen Rensi. As the boatman said, the four boats did not embarrass them. On the contrary, several boatman said hello to the boatman. Chen Ren secretly felt that in this troubled time, I am afraid that for the common people, officers and soldiers are the real bandits!

"Stop the ship!" Just as the boat of the four Jin Fan thieves was about to row by, a huge shout rang out. With the skillful action of the boatman, the four boats stopped abruptly in the middle of the Yangtze River.

"What a delicious wine! The boatman! But the wine of your ship A bold and forthright voice sounded. On one of the boats of the Jinfan thieves, a tall man was standing. Although he could not see his face clearly, he could see clearly that he was wearing a red and green short sleeve robe, standing majestically at the stern of the boat and shouting at Chen Ren.

The boatman is in a bit of a dilemma. On weekdays, these Jinfan thieves take care of their ferries. However, the wine is obviously the property of these scholars. You can't take other people's things as a gift.

Looking at the man's dress and the attitude of other brocade sail thieves, Chen Ren guessed that he was Gan Ning. He immediately cocked his mouth and cried out: "there are plenty of good wine here. If you want to drink it, you will get it!" At this time, there was already a distance of seven or eight feet between the two ships. Chen Ren was determined to test the ability of the later generations to be called the first general on the water of the Three Kingdoms.

That Ganning also did not expect to receive this kind of answer, the brothers under him also followed the coax. Gan Ning was stunned, and then he looked up to the sky with a smile. He bent down and picked up a bundle of ropes from the deck of his ship. Then he grabbed a long knife from his side and tied a dead knot on the handle of the long knife with one end of the rope. He took it in his hand and tossed it directly at Chen Ren's boat. With a strong wind, the long sword was nailed directly to the deck of Chen Ren's boat, but it didn't get into the handle.

"So and so!" Gan Ning roared, his body a vertical, actually stepped on the rope quickly across the river, skilful jump to Chen Ren's boat.

Looking at Gan Ning's beautiful skills, both the Jinfan thieves on the four ships and the boatman on this side clapped their hands and applauded him. Even Chen Ren had to praise in his heart. Gan Ning really deserves his reputation.

"Good skill! Come on! Then Chen Ren had the intention of making friends, and naturally he would not grudge these jars of wine. With a wave of his hand, a jar of wine flew directly to Ganning.

Gan Ning was not polite. He took over the wine jar and broke the seal of the bottle with one hand. A strong aroma of wine came to my nose. Ganning took a deep breath and gave a big drink: "it's really a good wine!" After that, he picked up the wine jar and poured it directly into his mouth. The wine poured out of the bottle could not be completely poured into Ganning's mouth, but flowed out a lot along Ganning's neck.

Chen Ren didn't care about it. The general had such a strong passion for drinking, but Guo Jia groaned at the wine flowing on the deck.

"Oops!" Ganning poured a fifth of the jar of wine in one mouthful. He was not drunk in a thousand cups. Now, he felt dizzy. A hot and spicy flavor burned directly from his stomach to his throat, "happy! What a pleasure! Ha ha ha

While Ganning was pouring wine, Chen Ren was also carefully observing the future general of Dongwu. According to historical records, Ganning was a person from Bajun County who lived near the river, that is, Zhongxian County, Chongqing. Ganning looks like a Sichuan man with two sword eyebrows, a pair of tiger eyes, and no need to be under the jaw. It shows a trace of determination and ruthlessness. The collar of the short robe is very wide, showing strong muscles.

Ganning put down the wine jar, wiped the residual wine with his arm, took out a large ingot of gold from his arms, and threw it directly to the boatman who was looking at the hole pierced by the long knife, and his face was full of pain."Some day I rose up and broke your boat. This gold will compensate you!" Gan Ning light said, but did not look at the boatman, just interested in staring at Chen Ren. The boatman happily followed up the gold and gave thanks.

"The brocade sail thief is really heroic indeed Chen Ren, however, was not afraid of Gan Ning's knife like eyes, clapped his hands and said with a smile, "I broke a small boat and I lost a ingot of gold. I'm the only family in the world. A strong man drinks a jar of my wine, but I don't know what the strong man is going to pay for me?"

Hearing Chen Ren's words, Guo Jia seemed to look very ugly, but did not say anything, just holding the wine jar to one side, murmuring something in her mouth.

Gan Ning didn't notice Guo Jia's abnormality. He took another sip of the wine jar and asked, "you must look down on these yellow and white things, even though you look extraordinary in appearance. Come on! As long as you can do it, you will never be responsible for it! "

"Good!" Chen Ren laughed and said, "I have a rule. This wine is made by me. It is unique in the world. It's very simple to drink my wine. If you're a scholar, compare your literary grace with me! If you are a warrior... "

"Ha ha ha ha!" Gan Ning looked at Chen Renna's slightly emaciated figure and said with a smile, "if someone is a martial artist, you are not a scholar, but you should compete with someone?"

"Ha ha ha ha ha!" Gan Ning's voice was so loud that all the people on the river could hear it clearly. For a moment, the four boats of Jin Fan thief and Chen Ren's boat burst into startling laughter.

Chen Ren's face did not change. He was still a man and animal harmless smile. With his right foot stepping forward and his right hand swinging forward, Gan Ning first stopped laughing and looked at Chen Ren with some surprise. Although Gan Ning was not as brave as general Gan, who joined the army a few years later, he also fought dozens of battles on the Yangtze River. Moreover, he had a good command of martial arts since he was a child. Gan Ning can see at a glance that Chen Ren's posture at this time is like a tiger out of the cage, which is much stronger than any opponent he met before.

Guo Jiake on one side was not surprised at all. As early as when he and Chen Ren went to the north for a visit, he saw Chen Ren kill the bandits' nest alone, but he knew his skill very well. What Guo Jia just muttered in his mouth was: "what kind of monster, outstanding literary talent, martial arts is also first-class, do not want other people to live!"

As for Chen Ren, looking at Gan Ning's surprised eyes is already used to. When he was a child, he accidentally saved a bad old man who was dying. He turned out to be a famous martial arts master in the Three Kingdoms period, Zhao Yun's master, Tong Yuan. In such a bloody plot, Chen Ren becomes the youngest apprentice of Tongyuan, Zhao Yun's younger brother.

Now Chen Ren suddenly challenges Gan Ning. He didn't conform to Chen Ren's low-key code of conduct, but he didn't know why. Chen Ren felt a fire burning in his chest and his whole body was full of strength. He must compete with the experts in front of him. Maybe this is the instinct of the warrior that the teacher told him.

Gan Ning's eyes also began to change slowly, from surprise to a glimmer of joy, Chen Ren can see that it is a match for the joy. After another sip of wine, she slowly put down the wine jar for fear of spilling more wine. Looking at Gan Ning's cautious appearance, Guo Jia couldn't help laughing.

Gan Ning ignored Guo Jia's teasing, and slowly walked five or six steps in front of Chen Ren. After crossing his hands in his chest, he took a deep breath and slowly spit out his fists. His left foot pulled back to form a set of offensive posture. If Chen Ren's momentum just like a tiger, then Ganning is like a lion ready to prey at this time.

Gan Ning's subordinates on the Jin Fan bandit, seeing Gan Ning ready to fight, waved flags and cheered for Ganning one after another. On the other hand, Guo Jia was drinking a lot of wine and yelling and fighting. How could she look like she was watching a good play.
