While Wang Ting was waiting for news from the imperial court, he also needed to go to Hanshou with Guo Jia to meet Liu Biao. After all, Liu Biao had given him Wu Ling County, so there was no reason for him to hide. Moreover, his own academy had already been built, so he needed a great scholar to oversee it. This time, apart from visiting Liu Biao, he also went to various places in Jingzhou to visit Pang De Gong, Sima Hui, and other celebrities to see if he could persuade them to come here with him.
After Wang Ting finished preparing the necessary items, he left Dragon City with Guo Jia.
Accompanying them were Mi Jing, Dian Wei, and Qi Hui. At the same time, Hua Tuo and Wang Jian also left with him. The two of them were recruiting disciples and returning to Dragon City. In fact, Wang Ting had another purpose for going out this time. The restaurant in Hanshou had already opened, and he had to make arrangements. Not only Hanshou City, but also several other cities in Luoyang and other places had opened their doors. Although he had eyes and ears, what Wang Ting had been brooding about was that the transmission of information was still too slow. Unfortunately, although he knew that pigeons could be used, he had no idea how to domesticate them for transmission.
Mi Jing was dressed as a male female companion and looked like a peerless young master. Anyone who saw her would be tempted.
The few of them took the carriage and majestically left Dragon City, heading towards Hanshou. According to his previous life, the distance from Dragon City to Hanshou was about four to five hundred kilometers, and it would take about half a month to get there by carriage.
The group was not in a hurry. They walked slowly while enjoying the scenery along the way.
This was Wang Ting's second time out of Dragon City, and his attitude was completely different from the first time he came out to buy paper. At that time, he was born poor. Although he was confident, he felt like he was drifting with the world like duckweed. Now that he had such a big foundation like Dragon City, he naturally felt at ease.
Along the way, the few of them chatted and laughed. It was very lively. The first county they passed was Yidu.
The current Wang Ting was a master of martial arts. As the saying goes, a skilled person is bold, let alone Dian Wei and a Great Swordsman. As for the fact that Hua Tuo and Wang Ting had yet to see this divine doctor fight with anyone, it was really hard for him to say how strong this old man was.
Therefore, the group did not deliberately arrange their itinerary along the way. In any case, they would eat wherever they went. If there was no county, they would camp in the wild.
After two days of travel, the group finally arrived at Yi City. Yidu and Wu Ling were two neighboring counties, both of which had many mountains.
"Young Master, you have to be more careful when you arrive at Yi City. There are still some thieves who come to rob us from time to time!”Guo Jia reminded Wang Ting when they arrived at a small path in front of the mountain.
"Didn't Liu Biao send anyone to suppress the rebels?”
"Ah, Liu Biao has just arrived in Jingzhou, and the counties are all on their own. In addition, the bandits were few in number and easy to escape. Look at the high mountains and dense forests. Once they entered the mountains, they could not be exterminated!”
"En, that's right. It's best to be careful!”
Although they were being careful, they didn't take it to heart.
As they walked, the sun had already hidden behind the mountain. It was about to get dark. The few of them quickly set up a tent in a secluded place on the mountain road. They lit a bonfire and roasted meat while drinking and having fun.
As they were eating, the sound of horse hooves suddenly came from the mountain path. Not long after, a horse came quickly. The person who came was disheveled and looked very sorry.
Perhaps it was because the horse was tired from running, but when it was about 50 meters away from Wang Ting's campfire, it tripped on a rock. The horse staggered, and the person sitting on it fell off the horse.
Wang Ting shot Dian Wei a look.
Dian Wei quickly walked over and helped the person who had fallen off the horse up. The horse swayed and ran into the distance until it disappeared into the dark night.
Only after all the people had left did everyone see who it was.
This person was about 1.7 meters tall, had a short lapel, and was rather well-shaped. However, Wang Ting found this person's eyes darting around whenever he was not pleasing to the eye, making others feel that he was not a good person.
Seeing this person in such a sorry state, Wang Ting and the others didn't hold it against him and invited him to sit down.
"May I know what has caused Young Master to be in such a sorry state?”Wang Ting asked.
"Young Master, you may not know this, but I am a person on a journey. About ten miles behind me, I met a group of bandits who wanted to rob me of my money. I fought with them. The person in the lead was good at using a spear and was very powerful. I forgot that you guys saved me!"
"If that's the case, we'll definitely help you. Please rest with us!”
Wang Ting and the others didn't take this person's words to heart. Seeing this person's eyeballs roll as he spoke, they didn't know if he was lying or not.
The few of them were drunk when the sound of horses stepping on the ground came from the mountain road. From the sound, there seemed to be about a dozen horses.
Not long after, a dozen horses galloped over.
"Big brother, there are a few people here. Can you go up and ask if you've encountered anyone who escaped?”
One of them asked the leader.
The person in the lead was also a teenager of seventeen or eighteen years old. The teenager had a strong body and was holding a long spear. She was wearing gorgeous clothes. The color of her clothes was different from her usual dark clothes. They were all bright colors. Moreover, this young man was carrying a bow and arrow, with bird feathers on his head and bells on his body. She was dressed strangely.
The young man nodded. Wang Ting, who was riding his horse near the bonfire, was about to open his mouth to ask. The sharp-eyed person saw the person who had been saved by Wang Ting in the early stages of the battle.
"Ha, my son actually has accomplices here. You guys will die here today, so just accept your fate! Who was the leader? Hurry up and accept the order!" The youth shouted.
When Dian Wei heard that this brother actually treated them as thieves, he immediately stood up with his two maces and greeted him: "You multi-colored cat, why don't you stay at home and blame us for being thieves?”After saying that, he raised his mace and attacked.
The youth was also stunned. There was actually someone who was fiercer than him. Ha, if he didn't let others know how powerful his little grandpa was today, he would still not know about Ma Wangye's three eyes.
Facing Dian Wei's double maces, the two of them fought.
The two of them exchanged about 40 to 50 rounds of blows. The young man was a little tired. After blocking Dian Wei's mace, he jumped back. He asked,"Hey, black man, you have such martial arts, but you actually colluded with a pervert. How shameless." Although I, Gan Xingba, can't take your lives today, I'll leave them with you for the time being. I'll take them when it's convenient. Do you dare to leave your names?"
When Wang Ting heard this, he thought,'Isn't Gan Xingba the Jinfan Thief, Gan Ning? He's a great general of Dongwu in the later stages.'
After hearing Gan Ning's words, Wang Ting tapped the man he had just saved, rendering him immobile.
"Brother Xingba, take care. I am Wang Ting from Wuling. I don't know this person. Just now, this person passed by here and said that he was kidnapped by thieves and fled here. Brother Xingba, can you tell me in detail?”
"Oh, it turns out that I misunderstood everyone. This person's surname is Lang and his name is Jin. He's from Xiangyang and has been doing all kinds of things since he was young. Recently, many refugees have been raped and we bumped into them.”Gan Ning explained the situation.
"Ha, since it's a misunderstanding, why don't Brother Xing Ba and all the other brothers rest together? I've already taken control of this person, so you can hand him over to Xing Ba to kill.”
"Ha, Young Master is straightforward, Xing Ba is willing to befriend you! Alright, brothers, come, take out some food and drink with this brother and the others.”
However, Gan Ning still stopped as he walked past Dian Wei."Big brother, your martial arts skills are better than Xing Ba's. Please forgive me for my recklessness."”
"Ha, I won't blame you. If you didn't dirty Young Master just now, I wouldn't bother with this!”
Ha, after saying that, the two of them laughed and walked to the bonfire.
"Brother Xing Ba, how do you plan to deal with this person?”Wang Ting asked.
"Since you've already caught him, you can deal with him as you see fit. I'll drink with this Big Brother Dian Wei!”It was indeed the favorite of generals. Gan Ning didn't care what to do with the thief. He only cared about getting drunk with the man who had surpassed him.
"Ha, alright. Since this person is so evil, let's throw his corpse into the wild and feed it to the wolves.”After saying that, he struck a few of this person's weak points and had them drag him into the depths of the mountain.
"Come, Brother Xing Ba, let's drink together!”
Gan Ning frowned when he saw that Wang Ting and the others were using small wine glasses."The wine vessels you used were too small, so Xing Ba didn't drink to his heart's content.”
After saying that, he asked the person who came along to bring a big bowl.
When Dian Wei saw this, he laughed in his heart." You bastard, you don't know what kind of wine we're drinking. Don't blame yourself if you drink too much and can't get up later!”
Dian Wei's face darkened, and he didn't answer. He just poured Gan Ning a big bowl of wine.
"Come, cheers!" Everyone raised their glasses and drank it all.
Dew also lifted his bowl and poured wine into his mouth. Just as he drank the first mouthful, the wine that hadn't even entered his stomach sprayed all over Dian Wei's face.
"Xing Ba brat, you're really unreasonable. Young Master kindly invited you to drink, so why did you spit in my face?”Dian Wei was furious. F * ck your brother, you little white egg. I told you to use a small cup, but you didn't listen and insisted on using a big bowl. You even sprayed your brother's face.
"Xing Ba didn't know that this wine was so overbearing.”
Gan Ning didn't know what to say. He hurried over and wiped Dian Wei's face with his sleeve.
It was really a mess in the midst of busyness. He was busy wiping Dian Wei's face with one hand, and the other hand that was holding the wine accidentally fell on Dian Wei's crotch, and the wine flowed to the bonfire.
With a puff, the high-alcohol liquor was ignited, and it was also aimed at Dian Wei's crotch.
"Ah, Xing Ba brat, how dare you plot against me!”
Dian Da was scared out of his wits when his crotch was injured. It was related to the foundation of his ancestors. He quickly stood up, afraid that he would hit his crotch. It would be so easy to extinguish the wine if it was ignited.
"Big guy, hurry up and activate your Iron Shield Skill. I'll help you!”When Wang Ting saw this, he also became anxious. He kicked forward. Perhaps Dian Wei had weakened the fire due to the few hits just now, but this kick actually extinguished it.
"Young Master, what is Iron Block Technique?" Dian Wei asked happily when he saw that it was really destroyed.
"Ah, it hurts so much, Young Master, you should also come to Yin Dian Wei!”Only then did Dian Wei realize that he was the one who had blocked the kick. He felt that his second brother's revenge was coming, so he quickly ran into the dark in pain. He didn't dare to hug his crotch and show off. There was a woman dressed as a man beside him.
"Ha, ha, ha!" Wang Ting and the others laughed, but Gan Ning's face was red with tears. What was wrong with him? He kept getting into trouble. If he damaged this black brother's seed warehouse, he would definitely go through fire and water with him.
Fortunately, his winter clothes were very thick, and there was only a hole on the outside. Big Dian changed his clothes in his luggage and returned to the bonfire with a long face. When he saw Gan Ning, he immediately punched him in the nose, causing a red flower to bloom.
"Big Brother Dian, I really didn't do it on purpose. You've vented your anger, let's settle this!”Gan Ning said as he wiped the blood off his face.
"Sigh, forget it. I, Dian Wei, am not a petty person. What did Young Master say about that kick just now?”Dian Wei was still in so much pain that he couldn't forget Wang Ting's kick.
"Hey, big guy, you want to ask how to thank the young master for putting out the fire? I have a way for you to see it, okay?”Mi Jing couldn't hold it in any longer and started joking with Dian Wei.
"Sigh, forget it. You only know how to bully me. You play mahjong and cheat me of my money. Now, you're actually teasing me. I won't play mahjong with you in the future. Let's see who you can win against!”Dian Wei also learned how to threaten Mi Jing.
Hahaha…Everyone burst into laughter again.
After everyone was seated, Gan Ning had learned his lesson and began to drink. Thinking about what happened just now, it was really coquettish. She was like a little wife who had never gone out before. No matter what, he was knowledgeable, but he actually made a fool of himself by drinking. But then again, this wine was really delicious. He had never drunk such good wine before. Thinking back to the wine he had drunk in the past, it was simply too much to drink.
Dian Da, who was standing at the side, also hated himself. Didn't he just remind this kid that everything would be fine? He even wanted to see this kid make a fool of himself. He didn't expect to get himself involved. He felt so unlucky! The two of them had their own ideas, but they also drank to their heart's content. After all, they were both forthright people.
With the help of the alcohol, Wang Ting learned a few things about Gan Ning. It turned out that Gan Ning was from a wealthy family. Gan Ning, also known as Xingba, was from Linjiang, Bajun. He was a good ranger and often led the village youths to fight against injustice. He felt that his hometown couldn't recruit him, so he brought his friends around. Wandering here, he happened to bump into the thief who had just been thrown into the mountain insulting women, so he defeated this person and chased him here.
"Ha, Brother Xing Ba has the same ambition as us. Why don't you follow us to help the people in danger and help the poor?”Wang Ting took the opportunity to ask.
"Alright, I have the same intention. Since Young Master and Big Brother Dian are acquainted, I can see that Young Master must have great ambitions. However, Young Master, don't ruin Xing Ba's enjoyment of drinking!”
"Alright, alright, there's plenty of wine!"
What a surprise, he actually recruited such a great general! Wang Ting was lying in his tent today and had insomnia again.
