Chapter 95: The princess and the white horse can't catch up
The bus took everyone to the first stop of today's tour, a famous local horse farm.
It is said that this horse farm is home to tens of thousands of horses, and almost every kind of precious horse in the world. This horse farm has been established for a long time, and once provided war horses for the cavalry companies of the troops, and it seems that it also provides patrol horses for border guards.
Then there are the horses needed for war films for film and television companies, as well as some other horses for commercial use.
Seeing such a large group of horses for the first time, Shi Tao was really shocked. Black, white, green, red, and flowers, the horses come in all colors, not colorful, but absolutely dazzling.
Big, small, tall, short, fat, thin, all kinds of horses can be seen here.
The horses here are different from the agricultural horses that Shi Tao saw in his hometown when he was a child. The horses pulling carts and farming in the hometown inevitably have a rustic atmosphere, but the horses here seem to be more wild and spiritual.
With the exception of a small number of horses for tourists to ride, the vast majority are not hitched and are in their natural state.
The long horsehair, which fell from the neck, like the long hair of a beautiful woman's shawl, ran and fluttered in the wind, which looked much more majestic and handsome than the boys with long hair.
Shi Tao took out his camera and took pictures of this rare herd of horses, recording their majestic posture of standing, grazing, jumping, and running.
Seeing that someone was riding on horseback with the assistance of the horse caretaker to take pictures, Shi Tao also encouraged the three women to ride horses and take pictures.
Yang Qiong didn't dare to get on the horse for anything, so Shi Tao had to let her lead the horse and take a few photos.
Shang Mei finally got on the horse under Shi Tao's repeated encouragement, but Shi Tao took a few photos of her and shouted to come down. Shi Tao was afraid of danger, so he was no longer reluctant.
Chen Qian easily stepped on the horse's back without the help of the administrator, and posed in a variety of poses on the horse's back, allowing Shi Tao to shoot endlessly. Shi Tao even changed a film, but Chen Qian hadn't shot enough.
When Shi Tao said that we can't shoot all the film on this horse, Chen Qian happily got off the horse.
There are already a few brave people who have gone on horseback and enjoyed the pleasure of riding. Seeing this, Shi Tao also wanted to try riding, so he invited three women to ride horses.
Yang Qiong didn't dare to get on the stationary horses, and she naturally didn't dare to ride the horses that ran.
Naomi was frightened and apprehensive on the horseback just now, and she wouldn't ride it.
When Shi Tao asked Chen Qian, she actually agreed.
Chen Qian chose a batch of jujube red horses, and Shi Tao chose a white horse. Although Chen Qian dared to ride a horse, she still asked the administrator about the character of the horse.
According to the caretaker, the horses for tourists to ride are all trained, and their temperament is relatively gentle and not fierce. The fierce ones don't dare to let tourists ride, for fear of danger. The horses they were riding, though rest assured, would be fine as long as they sat firmly.
The administrator gave them a detailed introduction to the essentials of horseback riding.
After listening to the administrator's words, Shi Tao and Chen Qian were much more relieved. Shi Tao gave the camera to Shang Mei, and after he got on the horse, he first asked Shang Mei to take a few pictures of him, and then he and Chen Qian drove the horse to the depths of the grassland.
The two horses walked briskly in small steps at first, but then Chen Qian shouted "Drive!" and urged the horses to move forward, and the red horse was very obedient and gallged.
Shi Tao was already lagging behind, and he also followed the "drive, drive!" to drive the white horse to catch up with Chen Qian. Seeing Shi Tao coming, Chen Qian urged the jujube red horse even more. Shi Tao followed. In this way, the two horses actually ran fast one after the other.
On the vast grassland, two horses, one red and one white, are galloping wantonly, the mountain wind is whistling, the mountains are undulating, the green grass is green, and the colorful mountain flowers are swaying with the wind.
Shi Tao never rode a horse, and rode a mule raised by his father when he was a child, but at that time, he rode a mule without a saddle, and he rode on the bare back of a mule, relying on two legs to stabilize his body.
Now that he has a saddle, he feels much more stable, and Chen Qian's bravery has inspired Shi Tao's manhood, and he doesn't want to lose under Chen Qian. The legs clamped the horse's belly, the mouth kept shouting, and the white horse galloped with hooves.
Although the white horse was jumping and jumping, Shi Tao felt very stable, not as bumpy as he imagined, and the wind was whistling in his ears, making Shi Tao feel like he was running in the wind.
Chen Qian, who was riding a jujube red horse, was even more heroic, with a white sunhat and a white thin shirt that was very conspicuous, and the white figure galloped away, and the tips of her golden hair were blown to the back of her head and fluttered in the wind. Chen Qian bent forward, as if she was running faster and faster.
Shi Tao's white horse followed like the wind, and the horse's hooves stepped over the tender green lawn as if on a carpet. Shi Tao felt that his legs were a little sore, he didn't know how far he had run, and he didn't want to run any further.
Chen Qian still turned around on horseback and shouted, "Come on, chase me, Prince Charming!"
"My eldest princess Chen, you are running too fast, the white horse can't catch up with you!, the prince can't help it!" Shi Tao shouted helplessly from behind.
Chen Qian's laughter came from the red horse in front of him.
"If you can't catch up with me today, we won't go back!" Chen Qian was still whipping her horse fast, and she slapped the horse with the reins as a whip.
These horses are very human, and do not need to be whipped at all, and even the red horses with the reins are stimulated, raise their necks and neigh, and run forward faster, and have the potential to take off.
Shi Tao saw that no matter how much he urged the white horse, he couldn't catch up with the jujube red horse, so he shouted: "Slow down, slow down, my princess Chen, don't be too fast, it's dangerous!"
Chen Qian didn't slow down no matter how Shi Tao shouted. Shi Tao rode a horse for the first time, and he did get tired very quickly with little experience.
Shi Tao was afraid that he was too tired, he couldn't control himself and fell off the horse, and he was afraid that the two of them would not be able to go back if he ran too far, and he was even more afraid that Chen Qian would not be able to explain once he was injured, so he slowed down the horse, gave up the pursuit, and finally stopped, and he got off the horse.
"I'm not running, I'm tired! Come back!" Shi Tao shouted at Chen Qian.
Chen Qian turned the horse's head, quickly ran back, threw the stirrup off the saddle and dismounted, the movement was very skillful, and led the horse to Shi Tao's side.
"Oh, my prince charming, you disappointed Princess Ben too much, I can't catch up!" It seems that Chen Qian is not tired, she is in a good mood, and she jokes about Shi Tao with a smile.
"It's my first time riding a horse, and I'm really a little scared to be honest, but I didn't expect you to ride quite well. Shi Tao said with a bitter face.
"I'm sorry, it's not my first time riding, it's kind of bullying you. Chen Qian smiled again.
"Huh, have you ridden before, where did you ride?" Shi Tao asked curiously, leading the horse side by side with Chen Qian and walking back.
"When I was in sales, I used to participate in a team training camp, and one of the activities was horseback riding. We practiced all day, but I didn't expect to get the first place. Hahaha!" Chen Qian is very proud of her achievements.
"I didn't expect you to be a practitioner! If you lose convincingly, I can't compare to you, I only rode a mule when I was a child. Shi Tao said.
"Mule! Hahaha! That's interesting. Chen Qian was even happier when she heard this.
"Riding a horse is not the same as riding a mule. Shi Tao said.
"Oh, tell me, what's different?" Chen Qian was curious.
"As for the mule, it is mainly used to carry things and pull carts, and it has stamina, but it has no speed. Stronger than a donkey, but not as fast as a horse. Horses, on the other hand, are known for their speed, which means that they mainly run, and they run more smoothly and faster than donkeys and mules. ”
"It's quite professional. ”
"But this horse is difficult to raise, and it is more squeamish and easy to get sick, so horses are very expensive. Nowadays, some famous horses in the world are particularly valuable, you don't want to see how valuable the famous cars running on the street are, in fact, a good batch of horses is worth more than a car, and even more than a house. The stone spoke eloquently.
"Really, I don't know any of that. There are so many horses in this horse farm, it's worth the old nose money!" Chen Qian exclaimed.
"That's nature. This boss is probably not simple, and he can't do this big deal in two clicks. Shi Tao said.
"Then do you say that the two horses we ride are worth it?" Chen Qian pointed to the red horse and the white horse.
"Actually, I don't know about horses, and I guess these two horses are worth a lot of money, even though they are not famous horses. Shi Tao said.
"You told me that you don't understand horses for a long time, fool me!" Chen Qian smiled.
"It's not a fool. This person is a good teacher, and if he knows the slightest thing about something, he will show off and preach to others, which is a common problem of people. Alas, in fact, it is all a bottle of less than half a bottle wandering. Shi Tao said with a smile.
"You're not half a bottle wandering, you don't even have the bottom of a bottle. Chen Qian teased.
"I don't understand this horse, but I've heard of a custom, a local custom, related to horses. Do you want to hear it?" Shi Tao stopped, and then Chen Qian also led the horse to stop, she wanted to hear what Shi Tao wanted to say.
"Say, listen. ”
"It's all about love. It is said that when a nomadic man falls in love with the woman he likes, he will carry her on horseback, and the two of them will ride together and run into the depths of the vast grassland. A good rider on horseback is able to complete a love activity for two people. Speaking of this, Shi Tao stared at Chen Qian's pretty face.
I don't know if the excitement of riding a horse just now is still there, or listening to the heart-warming story told by Shi Tao, Chen Qian's pretty face is ruddy, and her smile is like a flower.
"Oh, there are such customs, do you want to try it too?" Chen Qian squinted as if to tease Shi Tao.
"Oh, I just told you about this custom, so that you can understand, nothing else. I can't even ride a horse, how can I be called a good rider, at best I can only be considered a crappy rider. Shi Tao said ashamedly.
"Oh, I see, there is a thief's heart but not a thief's guts! No, there is no thief's ability. Hahaha!" Chen Qian laughed heartily.
"Huh. Shi Tao smiled awkwardly, "But you can be regarded as a good rider." ”
"You mean let me try, yes, come on, my Prince Charming. Chen Qian said and stretched out her arms to hug Shi Tao.
Shi Tao shrank his neck and was already hugged by Chen Qian, seeing Shi Tao's scared appearance, Chen Qian smiled even more happily.
"Hahahaha! Look at you, you don't want to think about it, do we have such a great technology?"
"Yes, but not right away. Shi Tao pretended to be cowardly and said.
"Hahahaha! You're really bad. Okay, let's not tease you, we should go back, don't let your wife worry too much. Hahahaha!"
As she spoke, Chen Qian kissed Shi Tao on the face, immediately let go of him, and then pulled the stirrup and saddled on the horse, and shouted at Shi Tao: "Come on, Prince Charming, come and chase, your princess is running again!"
Shi Tao hadn't come back yet, Chen Qian's jujube had already run away, so he hurriedly got on the horse and chased after him.
"Wait a minute, princess, the white horse is coming!"
