274.Chapter 274: Peace of Mind

After the medical staff examined Xu Huang's body, they thought that he was fine now. It's just that for half a month, Xu Huang has been living on liquid food, so his body is a little weak.

"From today onwards, I will start eating light food first. After the body is better, use big fish and meat to replenish the body. In this way, in less than ten days, you can recover. ”

Gan Ning and Xu Huang were overjoyed when they heard the words of the medical worker.

Lying on the hospital bed, Xu Huang talked a lot to Gan Ning. Only then did he know why Gan Ning went north to join the state. I also learned a lot about Gan Ning's life deeds.

Gan Ning's ancestral home is the Nanyang clan of Jingzhou, because his father lived in the land of Bashu at that time, so Gan Ning was born in Ba County, Yizhou.

Gan Ning's family, although they live in Ba County, can be regarded as a strong party in the local area.

Gan Ning's family is wealthy, young and heroic, and he likes to make friends everywhere, so he has a great reputation in the local area.

When he was eighteen years old, the Yellow Turban Rebellion broke out, and thieves from the county swarmed. Gan Ning was promoted to the rank of county prince because of his bravery and good family background.

Young and in a high position, Gan Ning at that time could be described as high-spirited.

However, Gan Ning's person is light and chivalrous, uninhibited. After he became a county prince, he didn't know how to restrain himself, but often shielded and hid those local heroes who committed serious crimes.

His father tried to persuade him: "You are a ruler of the state, how can you shield criminals?" In the long run, it will surely bring disaster to the family. ”

Gan Ning didn't listen to his father's admonition, and still acted as unscrupulously as usual.

Most of the criminals who can be shielded by Gan Ning are rangers who have offended local heroes and have a great reputation. It didn't take long for the local Haoqiang to hold a grudge against Gan Ning.

Later, several families colluded together, used family private soldiers, pretended to be thieves, invaded Gan Ning's house, and slaughtered all his family.

When Gan Ning heard this, he was grief-stricken in his heart, so he asked Taishou to arrest the murderer. However, Taishou also didn't like Gan Ning's actions, and he didn't want to offend the local wealthy family, so he kept delaying the matter.

Seeing this, Gan Ning resigned angrily.

He gathered the young rangers who had been shielded and befriended by him before, and stabbed to death the important people in the powerful family. Then Gan Ning, who was wanted by the government, had to die everywhere.

Gan Ning's actions caused an uproar in the local area and made him even more famous.

Wanted by the government and enraged, Gan Ning simply gathered a group of outlaws to do evil in the local area, forming a canal division to rob the ship's property.

As for the few private soldiers who sent them to attack his home, the local tycoons. Although Gan Ning killed several people in charge, the anger in his heart has not calmed down.

Later, he simply continued to lead people to slaughter all these families. Even the women in their family, as well as the children who were waiting for breastfeeding, Gan Ning did not let go.

The importance of Gan Ning's murder can be seen from this.

Several Haoqiang families were slaughtered, such a shocking case is simply appalling. Fortunately, as soon as the Yellow Turban Uprising came, such things were not uncommon in various states and counties, so Gan Ning and others were not treated specially.

Because Gan Ning and his attendants are all dressed in splendor. Everywhere you go, it's all brilliant. When staying, it is often used to maintain the boat with splendid splendor; When leaving, they should cut off and abandon it, so as to show that they are rich in luxury.

It is precisely for this reason that Gan Ning and others are called Jinfan thieves.

Although Gan Ning is a wanted person, wherever he goes, if the local officials and local heroes can receive him ceremoniously, Gan Ning will have a heart-to-heart fellowship with them, even if he goes to the soup for these people, he will not hesitate.

On the contrary, if the etiquette is not good, Gan Ning will be furious. At this time, he will indulge his subordinates to plunder the other party's assets. Even those officials and officials will be slaughtered by Gan Ning.

In the face of the enemy, Gan Ning is brutal and bloodthirsty, and he is a cold-blooded butcher. But in the face of his brother, he cares for him.

The people under him, whenever there is a difficulty in the family, Gan Ning will definitely help him. Every time he plundered, he spared nothing and distributed all the treasures.

Therefore, Gan Ning has a lot of prestige among the Jinfan thieves. All the Jinfan thieves are willing to die for him.

Gan Ning himself is brave, and the Jinfan thieves under his command are also outlaws. It was because the county soldiers did not dare to pursue it, and the officials did not dare to slack off. In this way, the sail thief became a great scourge in the local area.

He did so until he was twenty-three years old. Although Gan Ning is on the evil side, after all, he was born in a wealthy family and received his father's education since he was a child.

The chaos in the world has been revealed, and Gan Ning knows that if you want to make a difference, there is no way out by burning, killing and looting alone.

As a result, Gan Ning dismissed most of his subordinates. But he lived in seclusion in a place, and began to familiarize himself with Zhuzi and study the books of war.

Although the Jinfan thief was disbanded, Gan Ning's reputation made the local officials dare not go to arrest him.

Although Yizhou is relatively peaceful compared to other states and counties. However, the rise of the Five Doumi Sect, as well as the thieves that can be seen everywhere, have made the government powerless to deal with it.

Therefore, in the face of Gan Ning, who 'changed the evil and returned to the right', they naturally did not dare to persecute him.

In this way, Gan Ning studied and studied for three years. After studying for a long time, Gan Ning also made him less murderous and more elegant.

Despite this, those subordinates who served Gan Ning were still terrified every day.

Although Gan Ning treats his subordinates very well, he himself is a short-tempered person who is very easily excited.

Every time Gan Ning was angry, whenever he saw that people were not pleasing to the eye, he would tie up his subordinates and whip them hard. In serious cases, they will even be killed directly.

Gan Ning's rough and murderous personality has not been changed all his life. According to historical records, after Gan Ning defected to Sun Quan, he almost met with the Eastern Wu general Lu Meng because of this.

At that time, there was a child in Gan Ning's kitchen, who was Lu Meng's fellow villager. Because he had made a little mistake and was afraid that Gan Ning would kill him, he ran to Lu Meng for help.

Lu Meng knew Gan Ning's character, and he was afraid that the child would be killed, so he hid it.

Later, Gan Ning brought a gift to visit Lu Meng's mother and wanted to get the child back. Lu Meng didn't want to disturb his mother because of this trivial matter, so he returned the child to Gan Ning.

Before returning the child, Gan Ning also promised Lu Meng that he would not kill him.

But he didn't want to, just after Gan Ning returned to his boat, he tied the child to the mulberry tree by the river, but he was on the boat and shot him to death with a bow and arrow.

When Lu Meng heard the news, he felt that his face was lost and he was furious. LΓΌ Meng sounded drums to gather troops, gathered troops and horses, and prepared to get on the ship to attack Ganning.

Gan Ning felt that he was untrustworthy and guilty, so he deliberately lay on the boat and did not go out to meet Lu Meng.

Lu Meng's mother was barefoot and came out to advise Lu Meng: "The supreme treats you like flesh and blood, and it is a major matter for you, why do you want to attack Gan Ning with personal anger?" On the day of death, even if the Supreme does not ask, you are illegal for your subordinates. ”

Lu Meng has always been filial to his mother, and when he heard his mother's words, he no longer attacked Gan Ning.

Then he personally ran to Gan Ning's boat and said to him with a smile: "Xingba, my mother is waiting for you to eat, go ashore quickly!" ”

When Gan Ning saw Lu Meng like this, he was immediately ashamed, and said with tears in his eyes: "I am disappointed by you!" ”

Afterwards, the two reconciled again and became like brothers.

It can be seen from this that Gan Ning is such a contradictory person. On the one hand, he is rough and murderous, and does things recklessly; On the other hand, Gan Ning knows that mistakes can be changed, is sensible, and knows right from wrong.

After three years of studying, Gan Ning thought that he had succeeded in his studies, so he wanted to find a master to assist.

At first, he wanted to go to Jingzhou to join Liu Biao. After all, Gan Ning's hometown is in Jingzhou.

But a brother who was born and died with him said: "Although Xingba has been studying for three years, he is still a military general. I heard that although Liu Jingzhou is a famous man in the world, he is not good at military affairs. ”

"Besides, I've been looting in Ba County for so many years, and I don't have a good reputation. If Xingba goes to Liu Jingzhou, how can it be useful? ”

Gan Ning thought for a while, and felt that the man was reasonable, so he asked: "If you don't go to Liu Jingzhou, where should you go to?" ”

The man replied: "Chen Wenzhao of Bingzhou, born in recklessness, but he has won many battles. Now sitting on the land of annexing the state, there are many generals under his command, and he looks at the world. ”

"It also recruits talents in the state, selects talents and talents, and is not informal. Wouldn't it be a pity if you didn't go to cast for such a master? ”

Gan Ning frowned and was silent for a long time, and said: "Chen Bingzhou's prestige has long been heard. However, it is not easy to go to Bingzhou here, the mountains are high and the road is far away. ”

Beside Gan Ning, there was no shortage of capable people, and another person persuaded: "If it is because the mountain is high and the road is far away, you will give up such a master." In the future, if you vote for a mediocre master, you will be depressed, and you will not regret it? ”

Hearing this, Gan Ning suddenly realized. He no longer hesitated, and was ready to go north to join Chen Xu.

At the beginning, Gan Ning wanted to gather the Jinfan thieves who had been disbanded by him before and go to Liu Biao together. However, the journey to the state is long and uncertain.

Therefore, Gan Ning only selected a few dozen shrewd and capable teenagers to go north with him. The rest of the people stayed in Ba County first.

After telling Xu Huang about his experience, Gan Ning was still a little apprehensive in his heart. After all, as a Jinfan thief, it is not a glorious thing to rob around for several years.

He didn't know what Xu Huang would think of himself. I don't know if Chen Xu of Bingzhou will not reuse him because of this matter.

Xu Huang thought in his heart: "Although Xingba has a violent temperament, he is rough and easy to kill. However, looking at his past actions, he is brave, resourceful, and courageous. Such a character, with a little polishing, will definitely become a tiger general. ”

Thinking of this, he said to Gan Ning: "My lord Chen Bingzhou likes to accept the world's heroes. As long as you have real skills, regardless of morality, and do not pursue past actions, only talent moves. ”

"Xingba has great talents, and if he goes to merge with the state, he will definitely be able to reuse."

When Gan Ning heard this, he was overjoyed.
