164. Ride a pony

Icelandic horses are everywhere in Icelandic history, literature, poetry and folklore.

Icelanders love Icelandic horses, they are the most loyal servants, the most cherished friends, and the most trustworthy companions, and before the popularity of automobiles, Iceland relied on Icelandic horses for transportation, travel and fighting.

For many people, Icelandic horses can accompany them for a long time, and they have a relatively long lifespan, with an average of 40 years old.

In the old days, when life was shorter, it was good for a person to live for forty years as an adult, so there was a tradition in the Viking Age that when a person reached adulthood, his family would give him an Icelandic horse.

In this case, if the person cherishes life and rest, he can send the horse away, and if he is not in good health, he will be sent away by the Icelandic horse.

The black dragon Jimmy's ranch only encircles the big horses, and the ponies graze at will, they can go wherever they want, and they can't run far anyway.

As for theft, the ranchers are not afraid, they can say anything in Iceland, but they can't steal horses, and the first version of Iceland's law, Grรกgรกs, stipulated that stealing someone else's horse would be punishable by exile.

In this way, all horse thieves are exiles, and the law allows people to kill exiles, which means that if anyone steals a horse, everyone will be punished.

Rhine's advice to Chen Song was to buy two stallions, twenty mares, and twenty ponies, ten of which were with cubs, and the age distribution of the horses was the healthiest.

Chen Song's goal was to raise fifty or sixty horses, because he had never raised livestock before, so he had to practice his hands first.

There are a lot of Icelandic horses in Jimmy's ranch in Black Dragon, and Finrich said that he saw Chen Song very right, so he warmly beckoned him to help him choose horses.

Chen Song didn't want to be favored, so he shook his head and refused.

He had to choose his own horses, or rather the spirit mantis to choose the horses.

Finrich called his cowboy over, and then invited Chen Song, "Let's ride a horse to drive out the horses, right?

Chen Song sneered: "Not very good. โ€

"He didn't ride a horse. "Rhine can always find the right time to say the wrong thing, and now that he is familiar with it, Chen Song understands why this product can't be articulated, and he can't do oral work.

Finrich was amazed and said, "You haven't ridden a horse? That's great, I'll teach you how to ride a horse today." โ€

When he said this, a very malicious smile spread across his face.

Chen Song thought that he was not mistaken, because he occasionally saw a similar smile on his face, but every time he showed such a smile, he saw a beautiful woman.

So he quickly refused: "Thank you man, I don't think I need it." โ€

Fenrich showed extraordinary enthusiasm, took him by the arm and said, "You are about to raise a horse, how can you not ride a horse? Men are born knights, it doesn't matter man, come, I'll teach you to ride a horse." โ€

Chen Song was not accustomed to such enthusiasm, so he said: "Actually, I will, just ride a horse, what's so difficult?"

Finrich whistled, and a pink pony clattered over.

Chen Song's eyes widened, he knew that there was pink in the basic four coat colors of Icelandic horses, but it was rare to have such a pure pink.

Finrich saw the surprise on his face and said proudly, "This is little Kiki, my beloved pet, Vince, do you have a pet?"

Chen Song nodded: "Yes." โ€

"What is it?"

"Desert Eagle. Chen Song patted his waist.

Thinking he was joking, Finrich snorted and asked, "How's it going, isn't my beloved's coat pretty?"

"Pretty pretty. โ€

"I painted it with paint!"

Chen Song was stunned, can you still do this?

His surprise caused Finrich to burst into laughter, "Funny to you, Vince, you're funny, it's been a long time since I've seen such a funny boy like you." โ€

Chen Song couldn't stand it anymore, he asked Rhine in a low voice, "Are there any other horse farms around here?"

"The best is here, I know you can't stand Finrich's temperament, but I assure you, he's a good guy and just likes to be funny. โ€

Chen Song said helplessly: "But you have to know that I don't like to be teased." โ€

Rhine looked at the excitement heartlessly: "Hehe, man, you have to endure something else in order to succeed." โ€

Chen Song nodded and said, "Very good." โ€

Then he walked up to Finrich and said, "Your little Rhine nephew just told me that he misses the days he spent on your ranch as a teenager. โ€

Finrich's eyes lit up.

After the pink horse came running, a cowboy took out a carrot and handed it to Chen Song for him to feed the horse, this is a very fresh carrot, which is a high treatment for livestock in a place like Iceland where vegetables are scarce.

Chen Song took the reins and fed it carrots, and helped it comb the non-mainstream hairstyle on the top of its head.

But when he grabbed the saddle and was ready to mount the horse, he couldn't, and the pink horse jumped forward and backward very violently and didn't let him ride it: Don't beat Lao Tzu.

Chen Song was furious: "Return Lao Tzu's carrot!"

Finrich hurriedly came over and hugged the horse's head, and he said softly: "Wow, wow, why is my little liver suddenly angry?" Oh, Dad knows, you don't like this big brother, right? Okay, okay, Daddy is here, Dad is with you, we don't want big brother ......"

Another cowboy led a new horse, Chen Song didn't believe in evil, and was ready to get this horse even if he was strong.

Finrich stopped him and smiled: "Hey, handsome guy, don't worry, we have a custom, if you don't know the name of a horse you shouldn't ride it, if you want to ride a horse you first have to ask what it's called." โ€

Chen Song asked, "If I ask it, will it answer?"

"I'll answer it for you, you ask. Finrich said happily.

Chen Song sighed, so he had to look directly into the pony's eyes and ask, "What's your name?"

"My name is Ash Fifteen. Finrich said softly.

Seeing that he closed his mouth when he finished asking, Finrich urged again: "Man, keep talking, talk to this kid a little more, communicate more." โ€

Chen Song shrugged and said, "Good name, why are you called Gray Fifteen?"

"Because I'm the fifteenth gray horse. โ€

Chen Song turned his head to Rhine and said, "In the future, if someone says that I am very confused about naming my pet, I will definitely use this example to slap his face." โ€

Gray Fifteen is a very supple horse, Chen Song stayed with it for a while and tried to turn over on the horse, but the horse did not resist, and let him sit in the saddle very well-behaved.

The Icelandic horse is really small, and Chen Song's legs drooped down and felt that it was not far from the ground.

He worries that he will crush the pony, but this is a blind worry.

In addition to the nickname of Wang Ying among horses, Icelandic horses are also known as dwarves among horses, they are small but powerful, and their endurance is also very good.

Suddenly, Chen Song felt like riding a children's bicycle.
