Chapter 55: Shocking Horses
"Is it often an unexpected danger to lead troops into battle?" Yi Shuiyao straddled one leg and sat upright on the horse's back. The pen & fun & pavilion www.biquge.info received Murong Chonghao's gaze, scratched his head and said, "I haven't heard you talk about the war, I'm more curious......"
"People are not as good as heaven, and naturally there are many unexpected things." Murong Chonghao returned to his horse, pulled the reins and continued to walk with Yi Shuiyao.
"Isn't Julan a small marginal country? Are they awesome? ”
"The land of Julan is high, the land is barren, and if it doesn't rain for a month, there will be no harvest in the ground. The people are not rich, they have no gain, they are full of complaints, and they are forced to be in a hurry before they dare to hit our Great Eagle Country. ”
"And then burn and loot, huh?" Some people are desperate and fall into bandits, but I didn't expect that the country also takes the line of bandits.
Murong Chonghao snorted coldly and said, "If you don't rob, you will starve to death, even if you are afraid of the forces of the Great Eagle Country, they will have to fight." With the hard work of going out, in order to survive, the morale is indeed high. At first, our army was defeated and retreated, but the killing caused by greed and covetousness was able to stabilize the morale of the army? ”
An important point is that because of the poverty of Julan Kingdom, military supplies are not sufficient. Having said that, Yi Shuiyao still knew that it was not easy to win this war, no matter what the cause, the power that people burst out in order to survive was very powerful.
For the Great Eagle Country, it is to defend the country and keep its people from harassment. For Julan Kingdom, it is a matter of life and death, the meaning is different, and the determination that can be shown cannot be compared.
The two went deep into the dense forest unhurriedly, and it was rare for them to communicate harmoniously without arguing with each other. It's just that the time of peaceful coexistence didn't last long, and there was a tremor in the bushes, and a small sika deer suddenly broke into view.
Yi Shuiyao then remembered that they were here to hunt, and I don't know if the twitter just now scared away a lot of animals? You must know that animals are very sensitive, and they always have various skills to avoid predators.
The sika deer that rushed over looked quite young, and when they rushed out, they found that they hurriedly changed their route halfway, running back and forth with their slender limbs, and their round eyes were full of innocent looks, as if they were frightened.
Yi Shuiyao secretly patted her little heart, she was startled, okay, suddenly an animal sprang out, and she thought she was going to attack someone! But now that it's here, it's natural to try the new bow and arrow.
It's impossible for her to hunt a sika deer or something, but after Murong Chonghao's training, I hope I can touch it, right?
Don't just do it!
"Wait," Murong Chonghao suddenly raised his hand to stop her, listened with his ears open, and said, "There is the sound of horses' hooves, soon." ”
Yi Shuiyao didn't hear anything, but he still put down the bow and arrow in his hand as he said. Not long after, I heard the sound of horses' hooves ticking and ticking, as if I was in a hurry? Yi Shuiyao couldn't help but be curious, there are so many branches in this dense forest, aren't the horsemen afraid of being hit on the head by the branches?
Looking in the direction of the sound, I saw a horse running out, but it was empty on the horse's back.
"It's ...... The horse of the lord of Magnolia! ”
Yi Shuiyao recognized it at a glance, the snow-white color, isn't it Snow White in the stable? I let the county lord of Yulan ride away before, why do you seem to be crazy at this time?
"Magnolia?" Murong Chonghao raised his eyebrows.
"Is this a shock? Is the Lord of Magnolia okay? "Horses are easily frightened by loud noises or movements, and then they will suddenly run wildly and bark, and throw off the people on their backs, or even trample on others, which is dangerous enough to be fatal.
They're so crazy that they're scared of themselves!
"Don't go near it." Murong Chonghao glanced at Bai Ma casually, and he didn't plan to step forward to stop it, as if he didn't want to meddle in things.
It's just that the white horse can't stand him, and rushes straight towards them, unstoppable. Murong Chonghao frowned, reluctantly preparing to stop it with his own hands, but the black bones under the seat ran in the opposite direction uncharacteristically.
"Hiss!" Black Bone snorted in disgust as he trotted away from the white horse.
Murong Chonghao was slightly shocked in his heart, although the black bone had a wild temperament, he had been very obedient since he was tamed, and he had never disobeyed his will. This time, he didn't want to get close, could it be that there was something wrong with that horse?
Watching the white horse neigh, the voice was short and loud, and the horse's hooves were constantly kicking back and forth, as if it was not a symptom of an ordinary startled horse. The pupils are dilated, describing madness, and there is a little foam at the corner of the mouth.
Not good! I'm afraid I accidentally ate some herbs!
When Murong Chonghao reacted, it was too late, the white horse was very close to Yi Shuiyao, and the jujube mare she was riding suddenly shook her head, followed by a rage, and in the blink of an eye, she spread her hooves and rushed out.
"Ahhhh Yi Shuiyao fell back defenselessly, but fortunately, his hands subconsciously grabbed the reins, and he didn't fall out!
"Pig!" Murong Chonghao stepped a little under his feet and picked up his light skills to catch up.
The maroon horse rushed in a different direction from the white horse with Yi Shuiyao, and it was very fast, and it scurried from tree to tree with quick movements. Murong Chonghao jumped around the tree and chased after him.
Yi Shuiyao's mind was already blank, except for holding the reins tightly and staring at the branches that suddenly blocked her eyes, if she hadn't dodged quickly, her eyes would have been poked blind!
"Get down!" Murong Chonghao shouted coldly.
Yi Shuiyao's body was one step faster, and she spontaneously lay on the horse's back, and a branch crawling with thorns and thorns swept across her back. Although she had leaned over in time, she still felt a pain in her cheeks and was injured.
Murong Chonghao simply took aim at the opportunity and jumped steadily on the horse's back, hugging Yi Shuiyao. She breathed a sigh of relief in her heart, and her warm and generous chest gave her a full sense of security in an instant.
Murong Chonghao snorted slightly, frowning: "This smell ......" Ma Er really didn't go crazy for no reason, and it wasn't just as simple as being frightened.
Thinking back to the white horse just now, just approaching, it drove the jujube mare to go crazy, and the slightly sweet smell on the tip of the nose at this time reminded Murong Chonghao of Lan Taro.
Blue taro is very irritating to horses, and it looks like it grows in the grass plainly, and once the branches and leaves are damaged, it will secrete a slightly sweet and irritating liquid, which makes the horse fall into a state of madness.
This smell is very domineering, and it lingers tightly around the horses that have been eaten by mistake, and the nose of the person does not smell obviously, but once the other horses get close, they will be driven into the same panic and irritability.
Within half an hour of continuous drug effect, it often leads to multiple accidents.
Yi Shuiyao was shocked and said, "Let's jump off the horse, right?" ”
There are so many obstacles in the woods, and it feels terrible to be out of control! Her little heart almost didn't fly out just now, they were all horses, the difference between the grassland and the jungle was too great, this was exciting!
"Just run a lap." Murong Chonghao grabbed the reins in the posture of hugging her, and said, "It won't be long before the effect of the smell will dissipate." ”
"What the hell is going on with it?" Could it be a contagious 'mad horse disease'?
Even in the dense forest, Murong Chonghao was very confident that he could tame the Crazy Horse safely. I was about to explain the blue taro to Yi Shuiyao, but I felt that the front hooves of the horse were weightless, and the person couldn't help but pounce forward.
"Ahh Yi Shuiyao couldn't help but scream.
The so-called horse stumbles, no one thought that behind a lush grass was a small dirt pit, quite deep!
Murong Chonghao reacted quickly, jumped up with Yi Shuiyao, held his light skills well, borrowed strength from the branches in front of him, and carried her out of the dirt pit without danger.
The poor maroon mare, whose face touched the ground first, let out a long neigh, struggled in the pit.
And Yi Shuiyao breathed a sigh of relief again, feeling that he was being held by a strong and powerful arm, and the heart he lifted gently returned to its original place again.
It's just that they should be unlucky today, originally Murong Chonghao jumped over this tree with Yi Shui Yao and landed safely.
But what if there is no landing place on the other side of the tree?
After tapping the branches with your toes, you jumped out of the dense branches and leaves, but what greeted you was an empty space!
Murong Chonghao was taken aback, and reacted immediately, but it was too late to close! Who would have thought that there was a cliff on the edge of the small dirt pit!
Because the lush trees completely blocked the outside scene, Murong Chonghao, who didn't know it, jumped forward in order to avoid falling into the dirt pit, and from the side, it was as if the two of them had jumped off a cliff together.
Tragic!
