Chapter 68: Into the Mountains to Dig for Gold
"What's the name of this horse?" Fan Yang reached out and stroked the horse's neck.
"This one is called Dalong, and that one is called Jianggu, both of them are good horses in LZ County, two camels, four or five hundred catties are no problem. ”
Zhao Guangming said, put down the brush in his hand, walked into the house, and after a while, came out with two sets of saddles.
Tibet has thousands of years of horse culture, and the production of saddles has been passed down for thousands of years, and it is extremely gorgeous.
The two sets of saddles that Zhao Guangming took out were simple, and they were also covered with copper skins, copper buckles, rivets and other decorations everywhere, and the horses were painted red, looking simple and beautiful.
The side that touches the horse's back is sewn together with cotton cloth and fur, which will not wear the horse's back, and is embroidered with auspicious clouds, eight treasures, and some Tibetan ornaments.
With the help of the boss of Lausanne, the two horses were pulled out, the saddles and stirrups were put on, and the belts under the belly were fastened.
Zhao Guangming held the reins in one hand, turned over and climbed up.
"Woo, Woo ......"
After adjusting the posture of the horse, he shouted, "Ride and walk, go out for a walk." ”
The boss went over to help open the door.
Fan Yang turned over and climbed on horseback, in his previous life, he went out to travel when he was young, and he rode a few times, although he was not skilled in equestrianism, some basic, such as lifting the reins is to step on the brakes, pulling the left is to turn the corner, the reins are the same as the accelerator, run slower when you are tighter, run faster when you put it down, and knock on the horse's belly is nitrogen acceleration, Fan Yang still knows.
After getting on the horse, he pulled the horse's head on the spot, turned around, adjusted the direction, and gently tapped the horse's belly with his feet.
The horse was unusually tame, and with a slight lift of the four hooves, it slowly walked out.
"Yo, you kid, you're fine. Zhao Guangming smiled and rode out.
Missing a door to chase after the horse's butt: "Take me one, take me one." ”
"Wait here. ”
The saddle is not big, where can two people sit, Fan Yang laughed, took the reins of the horse, and followed Zhao Guangming slowly to a dirt road behind.
The more you ride, the smoother it gets, so you simply put down the horse's head and let the horse trot.
"Haha. ”
For many years, Fan Yang has not erupted into such pure laughter.
The harmony between humans and animals is a kind of nature, Zhao Guangming still held a horse whip in his hand, and caught up and whipped Fan Yang's horse's buttocks.
The horsepower suddenly accelerated, and at that time, it was careless, and it was almost reversed.
But it quickly adjusted.
A trip down, hearty.
The lack of a door was also under the guidance of Fan Yang, and he went out for a spin twice, and he mastered one hand very quickly.
The main thing is that these two horses are too obedient, the height is also appropriate, and the movements are dexterous.
After running twice, the two couldn't put it down.
Hop up and down at the stables, brush the horses, feed the grass, and have fun.
But just as he was having fun, he heard the iron door creaking behind him, and Fan Yang looked back.
Suddenly frightened, his face changed.
I saw a black head, lightly arching open the small door, glancing inside, and then arching the door open, swaggering, and entering.
The body is probably as long as 1.5 meters, can be as tall as a person's legs, weigh no less than 100 catties, like a calf-like adult Tibetan mastiff, a pure black Tibetan mastiff bigger than Alaska, swaggered in.
Seeing that Fan Yanghe was missing a door, he ignored it, walked straight to the eaves, and lay down.
Seeing Fan Yang's sluggish expression.
Missing a door, he turned around and asked, "What's wrong?"
"Wow Grass ......"
Missing a door and a weak leg, the soft stepping on the ground is on the ground.
There was fear in both eyes, and my whole body was trembling.
"This, this ......" was speechless.
Fan Yang didn't dare to move.
It's a natural oppression, from size and lethal oppression.
The adult Tibetan mastiff really feels like a beast, and it is difficult to associate it with an ordinary dog.
Seeing the appearance of the two, Zhao Guangming couldn't help but laugh: "What are you afraid of, my dog doesn't bite, come here, black and black." ”
The Tibetan mastiff only symbolically wagged its tail, slowly got up, walked to Zhao Guangming's side, stood for a while, and let Zhao Guangming rub it on its neck, as if he had barely said hello, extremely perfunctory.
He went to the eaves and lay on his stomach.
A lazy look.
The two slowly came back to their senses: "Pit daddy, Lao Zhao, aren't you a dog? Wow, it really scared me to death......"
"What is the bolt, the dog that is tied to bite people, my dog is very obedient, often go out with me, come, let you touch. ”
"Touch?"
Give him 100 guts, but he doesn't dare.
The Tibetan mastiff is not particularly active, and its personality is not very lively, but on the contrary, it has a kind of calmness and majesty, even if it is lying on its stomach, it is also the habit of raising its head and holding its chest up.
Fan Yang looked at it for a while, and found that there was indeed no intention of attacking people, on the contrary, there was a kind of indifference, or contempt in his lazy eyes.
"Brother, this should be a tiger-shaped black mastiff, right?"
The Tibetan mastiff has a single breed, the bones are almost the same, the head is square and the mouth is broad, and there are two types of coats, one tiger and one lion, the lion's coat is fluffy, the neck is slightly similar to the lion, and the tail is slightly curled.
And the tiger type, square head and soft ears, broad shoulders and broad back, thick and short coat, the streamlined body is very good, the tail is straighter, the whole body is black hair, without a little variegation, this is really the best of the best, almost comparable to snow mastiff and golden mastiff.
To be put in the future generations, after the Tibetan mastiff is fried, such a black mastiff will not be auctioned, and it will be hundreds of thousands of dollars to buy.
"Well, it's called Heihei, it's there, don't talk about wolves, bears don't dare to come. ”
"You mean to take him into the mountains?" asked Fan Yang.
"Sure, don't bring a dog, you dare to go out?" Zhao Guangming asked rhetorically.
At night, they had some dinner at Boss Ram's place, and the two dreamed at night, and they also dreamed of galloping horses on the grassland.
I am looking forward to this trip to the grassland.
The man and the dog, and the horse, ran in for a few days, and then they were ready to go.
But there were not enough horses, so Zhao Guangming asked the boss Luosang to rent two horses and come back, agreeing to 300 yuan a month, one for each of the three of them, and the other for camel supplies.
Three people, four horses, two dogs, and two sheep, carrying large bags of things, and the remaining few big black heavens, chose to set off for the Tagong grassland at four or five o'clock in the morning.
They brought tents, and this time they went in, they brought not much rations, but mainly tools, quilts, and felt, and went in to rest well in the gold mining shed.
Food and so on can be replenished when you get to Tagong Town.
The group was like a horse gang in ancient times, pulling the team and walking slowly on the mountain meadow.
Looking at the scenery along the way, people and animals are accompanied by fun, one large and one small Tibetan mastiff are also slowly familiar with the two, with this adult Tibetan mastiff accompanied, there is a lot less trouble.
The trailing wild dogs are sometimes more than three or five, sometimes even a group of ten or twenty, these dogs are territorial, have territory, if there is no big black, if it is not good, it will be besieged.
But there is a big black, and these wild dogs often bark twice, follow over to take a look, and it's over, and they never dare to get too close.
Da Hei's steps were steady, and he looked at the eyes of these wild dogs with contempt, and even the two sheep tied behind the saddle did not dare to make a mistake.
At noon, he buried the pot to cook rice, cooked instant noodles, and Zhao Guangming also cooked butter tea.
At night, they laid stakes on the side of the highway and set up tents, and it was dark all night.
In the afternoon of the next day, we began to enter the range of the grassland.
