Chapter 33: A Mule or a Horse?
Xiaoyu trembled when he saw him, and the timidity he still had was gone. I thought that with such ability, I could pull him off the horse alone. Thinking like this, he separated from everyone, walked to the front, and bent his knees gracefully and saluted: "This son, I am invited." "This style has just been learned from Sun Wanru, and it is used decently.
The young man was angrily pointing at her with a horsewhip, and when he saw her salute like this, he was a little embarrassed at this time, and he put the horsewhip down and snorted.
Xiaoyu waved his hand at him and said, "Childe come down and talk, you are like this" Xiaoyu said with an exaggerated head bowed, slightly bent his knees, as if looking at a small insect on the ground, and said "evilly": "Whose wild girl are you?" ”
For a while, the two groups of people who were tense looked at her and followed the young man's appearance in a rough voice, and they all quickly turned their heads and held back their laughter, and they couldn't help but make a sneering sound that couldn't hold back. Xiaoyu was calm, and said softly, slightly curled the corners of her mouth, and said: "You come down, you come down, I will sue you." ”
The boy hesitated for a moment before jumping off the horse, and Xiaoyu walked over with his brother. The seventh brother gave a salute and said: "In Xia Yanzhao, this is the sister, I don't know the name of the son." ”
The servant beside the young man snorted coldly and said, "How can you and other people listen to the name of my son-in-law?" ”
Xiaoyu was not angry, only waved her hand and said, "It's okay, it's okay." Actually, we're just polite, and we don't really want to know. ”
The servant was so angry that he couldn't speak, and only puffed out his cheeks and looked at Xiaoyu angrily.
Xiaoyu turned his head to stare at the mount again: "It's really a good horse, it's from the Western Regions, what's its name?" Can you compare it to the same person? How far can a stick of incense run? ”
The young man's face was originally a little ugly, but when he heard this, he immediately became proud again: "This is a thoroughbred horse from the Western Regions, called Jueying, a stick of incense can run about ten miles, and I have not met an opponent so far." ”
Xiaoyu nodded and said, "I should be able to run faster." After saying that, he enviously reached out to touch the horse's neck, and the little guy on the side suddenly drank: "Don't move." ”
Frightened, Xiaoyu immediately withdrew her hand and went back, looking at the young man timidly with a deflated mouth, until she saw the young man open his mouth uncomfortably to speak, and then she hung her head and preemptively said to Xia Yanzhao: "Brother, let's go." ”
Xia Yanzhao has watched her play this kind of trick since she was a child, and she is really familiar with her kind of desire to capture and indulge in it. Hurriedly took her hand and said, "Brother will buy you two more candy men in a while." ”
Xiaoyu immediately couldn't help but say, "Then let the candy blower a night lion roar," paused and said disappointedly: "The night lion's roar is white." As he said this, he looked back at the shadow pitifully.
Sun Haoran was a bystander, and thought: Today, this stupid pretentious is definitely going to be trapped by this brother and sister.
Sure enough, the young man couldn't stand Xiaoyu's gaze, and said, "Miss Xia stays, where is this horse so expensive." It's rare that you also know horses, so you can touch them if you want. ”
I didn't want Xiaoyu to turn his head, raised his chin stubbornly at the young man, and snorted disdainfully: "Which one is rare for your broken horse?" ”
Where did the young man think that Xiaoyu would have such a temperament, he was angry and ashamed, and he didn't know what to say for a while. The little girl next to her also looked at this little girl in amazement, and said in her heart that this is really a wild girl who doesn't know what to do.
Seeing this, Sun Haoran's heart sank, and the breath that had just been relieved was lifted up again at this time, and said secretly: Looking at the very clever little girl, why wouldn't she just get off the donkey? Thinking so, he was about to open his mouth to ease the atmosphere, when Xiaoyu suddenly turned around and rushed over and hugged the horse's neck. She said to the young man coquettishly, "But you are not allowed to go back on what you said." With that, he put his arms around the horse and patted the muscles of the horse gently.
So even the young man was made to cry and laugh by her.
Xia Yanzhao secretly wondered in his heart, who made you praise this horse so well, if my sister didn't ride a few laps today, she wouldn't give up.
Sure enough, Xiaoyu bent down and touched the joints and tendons on the horse's legs, and pointed to the other young man's white horse and said, "Have you ever compared to his horse?" ”
The young man immediately said triumphantly, "Within ten miles, he will fall on the body of a horse." ”
Xiaoyu pursed his lips and said, "If I ride his horse, I can drop you a horse." Your riding skills are terrible. ”
The young man immediately said unconvinced: "The little girl's tone is not small. ”
Xiaoyu did not show weakness, and said proudly: "It's the mule and the horse that comes out for a walk." Then he turned to the young man on the white horse and said, "Childe, your surname." ”
The young man was no more than thirteen or fourteen years old, wearing a pea-green riding suit, slightly thin, with a pair of red phoenix eyes, squinting and smiling at the excitement. At this time, seeing her ask herself, she also turned over and dismounted, arched her hand and said, "My surname is Song Zhuo Jin." ”
Sun Haoran couldn't help but look at his bearing and expression when he heard this, and saw that although he was thin, he had a bit of a capable military appearance. I secretly thought in my heart that the prince's guard commander was surnamed Song, and he was not the son of their family. Thinking like this, he looked at the leading young man again, and secretly wondered if that young man was not the son of King Xing?
Xiaoyu learned from Song Zhuojin's appearance and saluted: "Moisten your body in the following table." And he said, "His riding skills are so bad, why do you want to let him?" Lend me a horse to ride, and see how I destroy his majesty. ”
I was afraid that he would not borrow it, so I looked back at the young man in brocade and said provocatively: "Are you afraid?" ”
The young man was so angry that he jumped to his feet, pointed at Xiaoyu with a horsewhip and said, "Zhuo Jin, you lend the horse to this little girl, I want to see it." ”
Xiaoyu turned around and smiled at Brother Qi, he made a lot of money today. This white horse is also a good horse, and if it is well controlled, it may not lose to his peerless shadow. When the seventh brother saw it, he secretly gave a thumbs up in his heart: This annoying kung fu, Xia Xiaoyu can be regarded as unique in the world.
Xiaoyu turned her head happily and said, "Brother Zhuo Jin, your horse has a name." ”
Song Zhuojin said: "This horse is also from the Western Regions, called Yingxue." ”
Xiaoyu nodded: "The horses in the Western Regions are the most tall and majestic. ”
As he spoke, he put his arm around the horse's neck and lowered his horse's head, and talked to the white horse with a cooing, and the horse shook his head and hid. After talking for a long time, Xiaoyu raised her head and said, "It's done." We've got to have a jackpot to have fun. He groaned for a moment and said, "It's better to do this, if I win, your shadow will let me ride." If I lose, let's change horses and compete again, I will definitely win more on the Shadow than you will win on the Shadow. ”
The young man was a little confused by her, and said, "If you lose, you lose, why do you have to ride the Shadow again." ”
Xiaoyu said: "We are comparing equestrianism, not horses. Your horse is a maxima, so naturally it is better than mine. If I lose, I'm afraid people will say that you are bullying me with your horse. You're not going to be cowardly, are you? ”
The boy said, "Of course not. It was the last sentence that replied, but it sounded like it had agreed to Xiaoyu's conditions.
Xiaoyu immediately spat into the palm of his hand, stretched it out and said, "A gentleman's word, the horse is difficult to chase." ”
Although the boy knew that this was the custom of the Mongolian oath, he was still disgusted. Seeing that he didn't stretch out his hand, Xiaoyu snorted and said, "Girl." ”
When the boy came back to his senses, he was angry again.
Xiaoyu turned around and pulled the horse to go up, but the white horse was so high that he couldn't reach the stirrup after trying a few times, and almost fell a big heel a few times, causing the guards around the young man to laugh. Xiaoyu couldn't help but let Ruhai squat down and carry her hands, she tapped her toes, and with this power, she flew and jumped onto the horse.
Slowly walked the horse around, ran back and dismounted, and let Song Zhuojin's servant take off the saddle. Everyone was amazed when they saw it, and they only heard that there were warriors in Mongolia who dared to compete without a saddle, and they all widened their eyes for a while to see what was going on.
Xiaoyu climbed up and shook the reins to let the horse trot for a while, and then suddenly pulled the reins, and the white horse neighed, raising its front hooves high, and everyone's hearts were raised to their throats, but Xiaoyu still sat firmly on the horse's back. After the horse stood firm, Xiaoyu turned around and smiled at the seventh brother: "Brother, if someone bets later, you must press me to win." ”
Then he turned to the young man and said earnestly, "It's too late to regret it at this time. ”
The young man was taking off his weapon so as not to get in the way, and after listening to her words, he urged him to step forward and said impatiently: "Don't talk nonsense. ”
So the two agreed to run to the willow forest opposite, and then turn back, running a total of three laps. The Sun family and the young man's guards had already beaten their horses and waited there.
Waiting for Song Zhuojin to stand aside, an order was given. Xiaoyu screamed: "Step." "I rode out, but even the voice of the shouting horse was not quite the same as the others.
Sure enough, as soon as Jueying jumped out, he had half a horse's head more than Yingxue, which made Seventh Brother and Ruhai sweat.
When she was about to run to the willow forest, Yingxue was still only a horse's head slower than Jueying, and even Song Zhuojin couldn't help but look surprised.
In the blink of an eye, the two turned from behind the tree, and they were already neck and neck. Song Zhuojin knew that Xiaoyu slowed down relatively little when turning, so he caught up.
For a while, the seventh brother and several scholars couldn't help cheering, and the guards of the Sun family were also cheering on the side. Although Sun Haoran was a little worried about offending King Xing, he was still a young man who had never been in the world, and when he saw Xiaoyu chasing after him, he couldn't help cheering.
When it came time to turn around again, the light rain prevailed. The young man could not help but be a little agitated, and beat the horse vigorously. Xiaoyu didn't look at him, just lowered his body and lay on the horse.
Song Zhuojin often competed with others in the camp to try riding and shooting, and at this time he already saw that Xiaoyu would undoubtedly win. I thought to myself that although she took advantage of her light body and no saddle, but this riding skill without a saddle was afraid that the most powerful riders in their guards could not match. Looking at this girl's brother Sven is delicate, he can't estimate that his sister's riding skills are so powerful.
Thinking like this, he turned his head and asked the guards on the side, but anyone knew that there was a Xia family good rider nearby. All the guards shook their heads.
The little maid on the side said proudly: "This girl is from our village, and she has a starling brother in her family, and they are all very powerful." Her second brother has the best skills, and I heard that he has a relationship with the Lan family in the northwest and the king of Yiwang in the northeast. Her sixth brother is a thousand households in the Tiger Camp in the northeast, and her fifth brother is the county secretary. Her seventh brother, oh, is the white-faced scholar in a robe. ”
Xiao Wu raised his chin in the direction of Seventh Brother as he spoke: "That's a famous prodigy in our village." Being able to see ten lines at a glance and never forget it is the first case of this year. ”
Song Zhuojin was taken aback when she heard this, and said in her heart that this family is powerful enough. After thinking about it, he asked, "What about the eldest brother, the third brother, the fourth brother, and the starling brother?" ”
The little boy said, "Her eldest brother takes care of the farmland at home, and now half of the fields in the village belong to theirs. The third brother has opened several liquor stores in the county, and he is looking for a shop in the house recently. The fourth brother is even more powerful" As he was talking, Xiaoyu and they had finished competing.
