The big man is on the run

Chapter 41 Double Happiness
"Ziyi, we get together so often, come back and take a look when we have time, Benzhou Mu is not a person who holds grudges."

"Zhou Mu, I, Tai Shici, swear viciously that I never let Sun Ce go on purpose in Shenting."

"They have thirteen riders, Sun Ce, Huang Gai, and Han Dang are all brave men, and I even snatched Sun Ce's pocket. How can I be wronged for letting Sun Ce go?"

"Whether you let him go or not, he has already run back to Chaisang."

"Then I don't want to just leave like this. Give me three thousand soldiers, no, one thousand soldiers, and I will wipe out Sun Ce for Zhou Mu!"

"State Shepherd!"

In the city of Xiangyang, Tai Shici, who was wearing a pocket guard and carrying a halberd on his back, recalled his failed job hunting experience at the Yangzhou Mu Liu Yao in frustration.

The few Danyang soldiers who followed him looked at each other, watching Tai Shici drink one cup after another.

"Letter."

Finally a pawn dared to say, "Don't drink."

"If you don't drink, what else can you do?"

Tai Shici was unhappy, and sighed: "When a man is born in troubled times, he should lift a three-foot sword to make incomparable meritorious deeds, so as to ascend to the rank of the emperor. What can we do if we have not achieved what we have achieved?"

"No." The soldiers were a little at a loss, "If you drink any more, we will run out of money, so we can't go to Chang'an to beg for food."

"What a big tone! But he is a poor man with no money!"

But I saw a strong man in brocade clothes coming in proudly, with bird feathers in his crown and a bell on his body, which was very eye-catching.

However, the customers who ate wine in the store seemed to have not seen them, and continued to eat and drink on their own after a moment of silence, but remained silent.

Behind this brocade-clothed man was followed by many attendants, dressed in brocade clothes, shining brilliantly, and the ostentation was very remarkable.

Tai Shici sneered, twisting his wine glass: "A gentleman is always poor, but a villain is too poor!"

Speaking of "The Analects of Confucius·Wei Linggong", Tai Shici came from a humble background but was a scholar. He thought that the strong man in brocade clothes in front of him would not understand what it meant.

Unexpectedly, the strong man in brocade clothes held his halberds around his waist and sneered back.

"A gentleman worries about morality but not poverty. How can you be called a gentleman?"

"A certain archer is good at archery, a gentleman has one of the six arts, how can he not be praised?"

Tai Shici dropped his wine glass and stood up proudly. Seeing that this "beautiful beard" was nearly eight feet in length and stretched out his arms like an ape, he knew that he must be good at shooting, so what he said should be true.

But after all, the strong man in brocade clothes has his own arrogance, so he said without resentment.

"I, Gan Xingba, am also good at shooting, and I have never met an opponent in Bashu!"

"Dare to compare?"

"Why don't you dare?!" Gan Ningbao's eyes widened, and he stretched out his hand, "150 steps, shoot this wine flag on top of the bowl."

Everyone in the store was in an uproar and looked out one after another.

150 steps, if you can hit the flag, you are a marksman, but you also need to shoot the bowl on top?

"You dare?"

Gan Ning saw Tai Shici stroking his beard and sitting still, thinking he was afraid.

"Too easy." Tai Shici smiled disdainfully, "It's boring."

"Stop bragging!" The Jinfan thieves behind Gan Ning booed one after another.

Tai Shici didn't pay any attention, and stood up, clutching a jujube in his hand.

Throwing it up, the green jujube landed firmly on the top of the flagpole.

At this time, Tai Shici had already turned his head and walked away, he didn't even look at it at all, and he wasn't worried that his date would be thrown crookedly.

150 steps, stand still.

Tai Shici took out a big horned bow from his backpack, flicked the bow string slightly, and then held the handle of the bow with one hand.

Besides, Tai Shici is seven feet seven inches tall, and this big bow is even more astonishing in size, almost as tall as a child.

"Squeak~"

The bow is like a full moon, and the arrow is like a shooting star!
"call out!"

Shooting an arrow 150 steps away, the jujube burst!
Tai Shici walked back, threw another jujube on the flagpole, and looked at Gan Ning quietly.

Gan Ning bit the bullet and walked 150 steps away, looked at Qingzao, which was almost a tiny black spot at the end of his field of vision, hesitated again and again, and finally lowered his bow.

It's not that he can't shoot, there is still a slight chance to hit the arrow by coincidence.

But Gan Ning still conceded defeat.

Because the moment he hesitated, he had already lost.

A marksman, self-confidence is the pinnacle.

But Gan Xingba, facing this person today, lost his confidence.

"Ziyi, you don't have to worry about arriving at Liu Jingzhou in a while."

Tai Shici looked at the confident Gan Ning and nodded.

The so-called heroes cherish heroes, that is the case.

After chatting for a while, Gan Ning knew about Tai Shici's ability, spirit and ambition, and planned to help without any hesitation.

Although he is not considered a figure in Liu Biao's side, he is just one of the heroes in Liu Biao's house guarding the courtyard when Liu Biao recruited heroes to defend against Yuan Shu and Cao Cao.

"With my face, it is impossible for him to ask you to send Lao Shizi's official documents to the Chang'an court. He has to give you an official to do it."

Gan Ning generously rewarded the servants of the State Shepherd's Mansion, and waited for Liu Biao to summon him.

Gan Ning has been looting and looting on the Yangtze River for so many years, he is really rich, and it is best for him to show off.

Even the horses of Eight Hundred Steps are wrapped in silk for decoration!

The two entered the hall of the State Shepherd's Mansion, after a while Liu Biao really turned out from behind the screen, and very kindly asked Gan Ning to take his seat.

Gan Ning briefly narrated what had happened, and praised Tai Shici for his bravery, not inferior to himself.

"Today, Tai Shici must stay! Liuzhou Mu, you can see to it for an official."

"Xingba!" Liu Biao twisted his long beard and frowned, "The seats in Jingzhou have already been full, how can there be any vacancy?"

"If you let this hero go, I, Gan Xingba, will quit!"

"Ok?"

Liu Biao was stunned for a moment, and then his words softened: "Xingba, it's not like... Don't you know how much Honshu Mu values ​​you?"

Hearing this, Gan Ning looked very pleased.

"Oh, right."

Liu Biao slapped his forehead, as if remembering something important that had been forgotten, he signaled Gan Ning and Tai Shici to wait a moment.

Not long after, there was an extra volume of silk script in Liu Biao's hand.

"It just so happens that Benzhou Mu here has a silk letter to send to the imperial court. What the silk letter says is related to the imperial court's secrets, and we need a reliable confidant to send it to the imperial court."

"How about this, please trouble Xingba to make a trip, this is a major military matter, and I hope Xingba will do his best to complete the task."

Gan Ning patted his chest: "I will not be entrusted by Zhou Mu."

"A word is settled!"

Liu Biao watched Gan Ning and Tai Shici leave the hall, the smile on his face slowly disappeared.

He rubbed his eye sockets tiredly, then laughed softly again.

"—Double happiness."

And here, the two walked out of the State Shepherd's Mansion.

Tai Shici, who was lagging behind, spoke out abruptly.

"Xingba."

"Ok?"

Gan Ning froze for a moment, then turned his head.

"I'm the one who hurt you."

"Do you think I really don't understand what Liu Biao means? I just look down on you and my family background." Gan Ning patted Tai Shici on the shoulder and said, "Being from a slightly cold background is not a shame. If you can bend and stretch, you can be a husband!"

"There is a hero in charge. Liu Biao, the Niaozhou Shepherd, has no capacity for anyone. It is his loss. How can you say that you have implicated me?"

Gan Ning laughed out loud, startling several tired birds.

Tai Shici said sincerely: "With a friend like you, I feel much better."

"A good man is his home all over the world, Liu Biao doesn't need you and my brother, so I, Gan Xingba, will take these eight hundred sons, so what if we go through the pass with you once?

I don't believe it, the nobles in this world are really like Liu Biao and Liu Yao who only care about their family background!

They are not British lords, and they can't tolerate us, so let's find them ourselves! "

Tai Shici smiled and said nothing.
