The Mythical Version of the Three Kingdoms: The Evil God Arrives

Chapter 313: The protagonist Sun Ce and the assistant Zhou Yu

"Zichuan, why do you suddenly want to accept a disciple?" Liu Bei asked Chen Xi with some confusion.

Liu Bei was not against Chen Xi accepting Lu Xun as his disciple, he just didn't expect Chen Xi to actually accept a disciple.

Chen Xi is not even twenty years old yet, and he is about to accept a disciple. It is really a bit dazed.

Although with Chen Xi's ability, taking in an apprentice is not a big deal, but the fact that Chen Xi took in an apprentice is a big deal in itself.

This is not a simple teacher-student relationship in school, but a serious master-apprentice relationship of imparting knowledge and answering questions.

"Could it be that Lu Xun's qualifications are better than those of Kong Ming, Zhongda and Shi Yuan?" Liu Bei guessed the reason why Chen Xi accepted Lu Xun as his disciple.

"The difference in their qualifications is at most half a block, which is not too big a gap. How far they can go depends on their character and acquired learning conditions." Chen Xi denied Liu Bei's speculation.

"The reason why I proposed to take Lu Xun as my apprentice was probably because I felt like it on a whim." Chen Xi looked up at the sky. At this moment, he couldn't figure out why he proposed to take Lu Xun as his apprentice.

Maybe he wanted to see how far Lu Xun, who had broken away from his existing fate, could go, or maybe he just suddenly wanted to take in an apprentice.

Perhaps it was the impulse of these two factors that made Chen Xi decide to accept Lu Xun as his apprentice.

However, the words had already been said, and Chen Xi did not intend to regret it. After all, he possessed so much knowledge and wisdom, so he would just pick out some suitable ones to pass on to Lu Xun.

"A spur of the moment?" Liu Bei pondered the word carefully. For some reason, Liu Bei always felt that he had experienced this kind of thing somewhere.

"Forget it, let's not talk about that little brat Lu Xun, let's talk about Sun Bofu and Zhou Gongjin.

After all, these two people are the main reason why we went to Jiangdong." Even if we didn't go to Jiangnan because of these two people originally, it must be because of them now.

We can't tell everyone that the fact that they just wanted to watch the fun is an excuse, right?
If that is really the case, then Liu Bei's image of benevolence would probably have to be further portrayed, and Chen Xi would also have to be described as someone who enjoys watching the fun.

"Lord Xuande, what is your impression of Sun Bofu and Zhou Yujin?" Chen Xi looked at Liu Bei.

"Sun Bofu and Zhou Gongjin?" Liu Bei was silent for a while.

"The hot-blooded and chuunibiao protagonist Sun Bofu, and the perfect assistant Zhou Gongjin who helps the protagonist deal with various matters." Liu Bei smiled and gave his own evaluation using the words of Yang Ji and Chen Xi.

"..." Chen Xi was speechless. If he remembered correctly, Liu Bei's descriptions of Sun Ce and Zhou Yu came out when he was discussing with Yang Ji about Sun Ce and Zhou Yu, a couple who were sworn brothers and monarch and subject on the surface, and sworn brothers in private as well, right?

"Lord Xuande, is this really okay?" Chen Xi really wanted to complain about Liu Bei, but after searching for a long time he couldn't seem to find anything to complain about, so he could only say something vaguely.

"What's wrong with it? After meeting Sun Bofu and Zhou Yu, I deeply feel that your and Zi Yu's descriptions are still very vivid." Liu Bei said seriously. He really felt that Chen Xi and Yang Ji's descriptions of Sun Ce and Zhou Yu were very vivid.

"Okay, there's nothing wrong with this understanding anyway." Chen Xi shrugged and stopped correcting Liu Bei's understanding of Sun Ce and Zhou Yu.

After all, Liu Bei's understanding of Sun Ce and Zhou Yu was nothing, as Xiao Qiao and Da Qiao still wrote their own stories later.

"Xingba, are we almost in Shouchun?" Fa Zheng asked Gan Ning while standing on the deck. "Almost, Xiacai is ahead, and Shouchun is just after Xiacai and Feishui." Gan Ning answered Fa Zheng without any hesitation.

Although Gan Ning had not spent much time in the Huai River Basin, as the naval commander under Liu Bei, he had visited all the rivers, lakes and reservoirs within the Han Dynasty, as long as they were accessible.

When Sun Ce's Jiangxia navy was still staying in Jiangling, Gan Ning also led the Qingzhou fleet to make several rounds up and down the Huai River.

After all, unless someone like Zhou Yu, who is extremely sensitive about the navy, is watching, no one else will be able to see through the disguise of the Qingzhou fleet.

"Didn't Zhou Gongjin take the Jiangxia navy into his possession? How come we haven't seen any patrol fleet even though we've reached the vicinity of Shouchun?" Fa Zheng asked Gan Ning with a frown.

The current situation is completely different from what he had imagined. It is going so smoothly that it feels like a dream.

"The Jiangxia navy usually operates in the Yangtze River basin and rarely appears in the Huai River basin." Gan Ning said casually.

Gan Ning has attached great importance to the naval movements of other princes since he took office as the commander-in-chief of the navy.

Although Gan Ning believed that no one else in the entire Han Dynasty could defeat him in naval battle.

However, facing the advice of the two big guys, Yang Ji and Chen Xi, Gan Ning felt that he still had to listen.

After all, these two are his immediate superiors. If their superiors ask Gan Ning to be careful, can Gan Ning disobey their orders?

Moreover, Gan Ning did not think there was anything wrong in being careful of the other princes. The weirdness of this ghost place, the Han Dynasty, was not exaggerated.

You never know what kind of big shot or great man will emerge from this land.

Who knows, one day when Gan Ning is being arrogant, a big boss who is unhappy with Gan Ning might appear and directly drown Gan Ning in the river.

"The Jiangxia navy was known as the strongest navy of the Han Dynasty before the Qingzhou fleet. Xingba, have you ever tried it?" Fa Zheng said with interest. He remembered that Gan Ning, the chief of the navy, had the power to conquer.

"Compared to playing in rivers, lakes and ponds, I prefer to face the storm on the sea." Gan Ning said calmly.

After experiencing the violent storms on the sea, how could Gan Ning return to the calm rivers, lakes and seas to play in the water?

Gan Ning has nothing much to say about the Jiangxia navy. As long as it is not Zhou Yu who is in command, Gan Ning will do his best.

Fa Zheng glanced at Gan Ning and expressed his understanding of Gan Ning's subtext. If he were in Gan Ning's position, he would be even more arrogant than Gan Ning.

"With Zhou Gongjin's wisdom, since he already knew the existence of the Qingzhou fleet, it is impossible that he did not think of the attack on the Huai River." Fa Zheng said with narrowed eyes.

"It seems that there is a big conflict between the many noble families under Yuan Shu and Sun Bofu." Fa Zheng easily guessed why there was no navy stationed on the Huai River.

Gan Ning looked at Fa Zheng with surprise in his eyes. He did not expect that Fa Zheng could so easily guess the reasons why there was no naval garrison on the Huai River.
