The next day, Zhao Fan formally invited Liu Qi to a banquet, and all officials from the county were present.

Liu Qi encouraged all the officials to greet each other and toast each other. Most of the social interactions in the officialdom were similar, and they were all compliments.

All the officials were convinced when they saw Liu Qi's extraordinary demeanor and kindness to others. In addition, he first defeated Cao Cao and wiped out the water thieves who had been in Panhuan Dongting for more than ten years.

Halfway through the wine, Chen Ying suddenly stood up and said, "There is nothing to enjoy during the dinner, but today I would like to dance with the sword as a show to help the wine."

Zhao Fan's face changed slightly, and he shouted: "Captain Chen, the general has important matters to discuss today, so don't mess around."

Chen Ying said loudly: "General, watching the singing and dancing yesterday seemed to show that our civil and military forces in Guiyang are lazy and incompetent in politics. Today we meet with military force to help make a smile."

After saying that, regardless of Zhao Fan's order, he left the table, drew his sword in his hand, and began to dance in the hall. The sword was glowing brightly, and a faint whistling sound could be heard as his body turned.

Although Liu Qi was not a military commander, he could tell from his primary school swordsmanship that Chen Ying's swordsmanship was ordinary and even impromptu. It looked terrifying to an outsider, but in fact his moves were messy and his foot was unstable. He was obviously a monk halfway through.

Chen Ying yelled and jumped like a tiger descending the mountain. The sword light passed by, shocking the Guiyang officials to duck back. Only Liu Qi looked on with cold eyes and remained calm.

Huang Zhong stood quietly behind Liu Qi with his hands behind his back. A cold light flashed under his white eyebrows. He pressed the sword with his left hand and held a broken arrow behind his back with his right hand. If Chen Ying had any evil intentions, he could subdue him with a flick of his hand and an arrow.

Zhao Fan secretly looked at Liu Qi and saw that he was smiling calmly, seemingly turning a blind eye to the strong sword light. He was enjoying the wine by himself, and became increasingly uneasy.

At this time, Chen Ying was gradually approaching Liu Qi. He vaguely heard the sound of the sword breaking through the wind, and was about to attack Liu Qi. Thinking of yesterday, Zhao Fan finally couldn't bear it anymore and suddenly struck the case.

He pointed at Chen Ying and shouted: "I am receiving General Liu today to report the affairs in the county. The officials are expressing their merits and the people's sentiments. It is not a meeting in Hongmen. Why use sword dancing? Why don't you retreat!"

"Since there is no need to dance with swords for fun, I have a gracious request!" Chen Ying looked hateful, turned around and cupped his fists at Liu Qi and said, "I have heard for a long time that there are many talents under the general's command. How about I dare to ask for advice and have a martial arts competition to add to the fun?"

Zhao Fan was very dissatisfied with Chen Ying's blatant disobedience and said sternly: "Captain Chen, General Liu inspected Jingnan for the purpose of governing the country and bringing peace to the people. It is not about using weapons rashly, so why use force?"

Liu Qi also saw at this time that Chen Ying really had evil intentions. If he was not subdued today, I am afraid that it would be difficult for the Guiyang soldiers to do so.

Bao Long has not shown up yet, so I am afraid that the two of them really have some conspiracy.

With a thought in his mind, he told Gan Ning who was guarding the door: "General Gan, since Captain Chen is willing to compete in martial arts, you can ask him for advice, but swords and guns have no eyes, so be careful and stop at the point."

Gan Ning strode over, waiting for Chen Ying to clasp his fists and say: "Gan Xingba will teach you a clever move."

"Are you the Jinfan thief Gan Ning?" Chen Ying looked sideways at Gan Ning and sneered: "I heard that the Jinfan thief is roaming the waterways and is no different from the Dongting thief. I won't fight with the thief."

"You..." Gan Ning was furious and was about to draw his sword.

But Liu Qi laughed and said: "I heard that Captain Chen was born as a hunter, and he also did a lot of stealing and poaching! Confucius said: Knowing your mistakes and being able to correct them, there is no great good. Now that you can serve in Guiyang, isn't it a great good? A certain person has worshiped Gan Ning as Jingzhou

Commander-in-Chief of the Navy, General Henghai, if you defeat him, how about I also grant you the rank of general?"

When Chen Ying saw Liu Qi revealing his life experience to his face, Chen Ying was so angry that he turned livid and clasped his fists and said: "The general defeated the Dongting thieves, and my subordinates also have the power to defeat thieves. I am about to learn from him."

Then he ordered the waiter to get two flying forks, stick the small one behind his back, hold the big one in his hand, and stare at Gan Ning: "Please enlighten me."

Gan Ning's eyes turned slightly red because of Chen Ying's anger. He snorted slightly and took a step forward. He raised his knife and looked over. Chen Ying hurriedly raised his fork to hold it. Hearing a loud noise, he was shaken back a few steps.

Chen Ying was secretly shocked. The Jinfan Thief was indeed well-deserved, but he believed that his martial arts skills were not weak. The flying fork in his hand was two feet longer than the opponent's sword, so he raised the fork and stabbed again.

Gan Ning dodged sideways, put the flying fork on the back of his knife, raised his leg and kicked Chen Ying right in the round belly. With a pop, Chen Ying flew backwards and hit a pillar not far away, smashing the table and table into pieces.

Messy.

The surrounding officials screamed in fright and stood up to hide. Chen Ying suffered from unbearable pain in his abdomen and vomited out all the meat and wine he had eaten, leaving filth all over the floor.

"You...you are cheating!" Chen Ying's face twisted, he wiped his mouth and stood up, pointed at Gan Ning and shouted: "How dare you do something evil?"

"Who said that only weapons can be used in a martial arts competition?" Gan Ning smiled coldly, holding the handle of the knife tightly, already with murderous intentions.

At this time, it has been seen that Chen Ying does not have much ability except for his great strength. His fault-finding skills are only honed during hunting. With this ability, he dares to look down on Liu Qi. He is really ignorant.

Chen Ying had lost face in front of all the officials and knew that there was no way out at this time. If he did not kill Liu Qi, even if he did not pursue the matter, he would no longer be able to gain a foothold in Guiyang in the future.

He took a deep breath, roared low, raised the flying fork and rushed towards Gan Ning. At the same time, he reached back with one hand and took off the flying fork from behind, preparing to kill Gan Ning with a fatal blow.

Gan Ning held the iron fork with his sword and kicked it again. At this moment, Chen Ying flew the fork with his left hand and went straight to Gan Ning's door.

This is his special skill. Whether dealing with wild beasts or killing bandits, his flying fork shot never misses a beat.

"careful!"

"mean!"

The hall suddenly burst into exclamations. Unexpectedly, Chen Ying would kill him. Huang Zhong had drawn his sword in his hand and was about to rush out, but the flying fork was already in front of him and there was no time to support him.

"Huh, what a small trick!"

But Gan Ning sneered, kicked the ground with his outstretched leg, and lay down on the ground. He held the knife in his backhand to support his body, which was like an iron bridge.

When Chen Ying saw Gan Ning lying in front of him with the empty door open, he couldn't help but reveal a fierce look in his eyes. He raised his iron fork and stabbed it down fiercely. He shouted: "Jinfan thief, you will die this time... ah——"

Before he finished speaking, he suddenly let out a shrill scream. Chen Ying trembled all over and fell backwards.

Everyone was shocked. They lowered their heads and saw that between Chen Ying's eyebrows, his flying fork, a foot-long three-pronged fork, was completely inserted into his forehead. Their eyes widened, and their eyes widened.

It was all fear and disbelief.

It was only then that Gan Ning held the knife, turned over in a beautiful spin, looked at Chen Ying coldly, and said in a deep voice: "I don't know whether to live or die."

He has been fighting in the arena for many years, and he has never seen any opponent's hidden weapons. Chen Ying is a hunter, and he is nothing compared to those people.

What's more, he had known that Chen Ying was famous for flying crosses and had been prepared for it. This move caught Chen Ying off guard.

Just when everyone was panicking, there was a sudden commotion at the door, and a black bear-like military general rushed in with his troops, shouting: "Who is so bold and dangerous..."
