After a while, it ran up to Zhang Taiping and put its head on his body. Zhang Taiping's heart moved, put the wine gourd into the space, turned over and jumped on its back. The black horse opened its hooves and began to run with a cheer, and the horses behind them also neighed when they heard the black horse's call, and then they all took steps and galloped up.

staged another scene of galloping horses. Zhang Taiping dragged the mane of the black horse in front of him, and led a large group of wild horses from behind, whistling over the grassland. Although the dark horse carried Zhang Taiping's weight of more than 200 catties, he still ran at the front.

Thousands of horses galloped on the grassland, bringing up dust and grass clippings, and some herdsmen knelt down to worship the sky when they saw such a scene.

The black horse ran for more than two hours before slowing down, Zhang Taiping tugged at its mane to signal it to stop, and the herd of horses behind it also rumbled and stopped around.

Zhang Taiping has a little headache, he can't let these horses hate the dark horse all the time, so how can he leave. Turning over and dismounting, he thought about it, put his hand on the black horse's neck and retracted it into space. As soon as the black horse disappeared, the herd began to scratch. This is his method, wait until he is out of sight of the herd and then release the black horse, and he will not follow a large herd of wild horses.

Zhang Taiping turned away and headed east, most of the horses stood in place and whirled and neighed without any intention of following, but four horses had been following Zhang Taiping. Zhang Taiping tentatively put his hand on them but there was no reaction, so he also easily collected the four horses into the space.

When the horses were completely invisible, Zhang Taiping released the black horse from the space again. Returning to his familiar surroundings, the black horse looked around, but the large group of horses that followed him was missing, and he was a little uneasy, snorting in place.

Zhang Taiping stepped forward and patted its neck and said, "You have chosen to leave with me, and you can only leave the horses alone for so long." The black horse turned to look at the place where the dust rose behind him, and he was reluctant, but he still resolutely turned his head and rubbed Zhang Taiping's arm.

"Well, then, I'm going to have to give you a name. The whole body is black, and it runs as fast as lightning, so it is called a black dragon. Zhang Taiping was happy in his heart and gave the dark horse a domineering name. The dark horse also looked up to the sky and hissed, expressing his joy.

By the way, the grimace was also released. As soon as the grimace came out, he quickly looked at the surrounding environment, and then stood beside Zhang Taiping, but the black dragon was anxiously digging the ground, if Zhang Taiping was not still here, it is estimated that he would have run away a long time ago, and he must be as far away from the grimace as possible. The momentum on the grimace's body is a deadly threat to the black dragon.

It took a while to calm the black dragon down, and then he turned on his horse, controlling his speed to a range that Grimace could keep up with. The black dragon really deserves to be the king of horses, and he is extremely smart, as long as Zhang Taiping makes a slight move, he can understand Zhang Taiping's intentions, whether to accelerate or slow down depends on Zhang Taiping's intentions.

A man, a horse, and a mastiff traveled hundreds of miles to the east. In the evening, I don't know how many miles I had run, but I could already see the faint mountains in front of me, and the dark and hazy shadows stretched for a long time, and in short, there was no end in sight.

Before dark, Zhang Taiping rode the black dragon to a small village on the side of a mountain where smoke rose from the smoke, which was already on the edge of the grassland, and the houses where people lived were no longer white yurts, but common brick houses.

Zhang Taiping dismounted and walked into the village, preparing to stop here for the night.

The first thing he greeted when he entered the village was the chirping of earth dogs, but when these barking earth dogs saw the grimace of walking leisurely beside Zhang Taiping, they were immediately so frightened that they went to hide in the nest and did not dare to make any more noise. After a while, a group of village children surrounded him, looking curiously at him, horses, and mastiffs, all three of which were rare in the eyes of the children.

Zhang Taiping didn't make any movement when he entered the village, but he still underestimated the deterrent power of the grimace and the little golden breeze hovering in the sky.

Such a big battle immediately alarmed the old people in the village, and it didn't take long for an old man in his fifties or sixties to come over and ask with a smile. I just muttered a lot of Zhang Taiping and didn't understand a word, but I just heard that this was the accent of the Northeast, could it be that this is already in the Northeast?

"Uncle, may I ask what kind of boundary is this?" Zhang Taiping uses Mandarin, and with the popularity of television, although most people in Nengcun cannot speak Mandarin, it is more than enough to understand.

The old man understood Zhang Taiping's words, but Zhang Taiping still couldn't understand what he said. As if he understood the problem, the old man said a word to the kid next to him, and the kid ran away. It didn't take long for him to run back again, followed by a delicate and emaciated little girl with a bamboo basket on her back with some herbs in it. Judging from her height, she is only ninety years old, but judging from her calm and calm expression, it is impossible to judge how old she is. Zhang Taiping guessed that this might be a translator or something from the old man.

Sure enough, the old man said a few words to the girl, and the girl turned around and looked at Zhang Taiping with bright and quiet eyes.

Zhang Taiping was stunned for a moment and asked, "What kind of boundary is this?" ”

"Daqingshan." The little girl's voice was a little hoarse.

Daqingshan? Zhang Taiping has heard of the name of this mountain, it should be a mountain range, then this is undoubtedly the northeast, although I don't know where it is, as long as I know it, it doesn't matter.

"Can you spend the night in the village?" Zhang Taiping said to the old man.

"Of course." The words spoken by the village chief were translated into Mandarin by the little girl and spoken to Zhang Taiping.

Zhang Taiping swept his hands and said, "Then it's annoying to the old man." ”

The old man waved his hand at Zhang Taiping and said, "Don't bother." After thinking for a while, he muttered a bunch of words to the little girl, but this time he didn't see the little girl translate to Zhang Taiping, but kept shaking his head. Apparently the old man said something to the little girl, but the little girl disagreed.

Finally, the old man made a gesture of invitation to Zhang Taiping, and then pulled the reluctant little girl to the place near the mountain in the village, and finally stopped in front of a house. The old man said to Zhang Taiping, and this time the little girl glared at the old man and did not translate again, but opened the door before going to the door.

There was no way, the old man had to make a gesture of rubbing his fingers towards Zhang Taiping, Zhang Taiping was stunned for a moment, and understood the meaning of this national general action. Then he smiled, took out a red bill from his pocket and handed it to the old man, who hurriedly waved his hand and pointed to the little girl who opened the door and entered the house. Zhang Taipingbai came over to let him pay the room fee for the little girl. So he nodded and understood.

The two followed into the house, leaving Grimace and the Black Dragon outside. There was also a black dog inside, this black dog was good, he was not frightened into the den when he saw the grimace, although he didn't dare to pounce on it, but he bared his teeth there and made defensive movements. I was scolded by the little girl before I stopped.

There was a strong smell of herbs in the room, and you didn't need to look at it to know that there must be patients who have been taking Chinese medicine all year round. The house is divided into two blocks, the front and back, and in the middle is a small yard where some vegetables are grown.

Xiao Jin and Xiao Feng landed on the roof, and the old man saw it and asked in surprise, "These two eagles are also yours?" The little girl did the translation next to her.

"Not bad." Zhang Taiping replied.

The old man smashed his mouth and asked, "What breed is that big dog outside?" ”

"Mastiff!"

"I've heard that this is very valuable." The old man muttered.

After entering the house, Zhang Taiping knew why the old man asked Zhang Taiping to pay the room fee for the little girl, not because the environment here is so beautiful, but because there are too few belongings inside. The old man let Zhang Taiping live in the little girl's house, one because the little girl can speak Mandarin to facilitate communication, and the other is to increase her income. Because the little girl's surname was stubborn and refused to accept help from anyone in the village, the old man had no choice but to make this decision.

The little girl did not lead the two into the back room, and arranged a room for Zhang Taiping in the front room. And the source of the strong herbal smell in the house is the back room. The old man looked at the back room and asked the little girl, Zhang Taiping didn't understand what it was, but judging from the little girl's worried expression, it must have something to do with the patients in the back room.

The old man stayed here for a while and then left, and there was nothing left in the room arranged by the little girl for Zhang Taiping except a clay kang, and the kang was only covered with messy straw. After a while, the little girl brought in a mat and spread it on top of the straw, and then prepared a thin quilt. said: "That's all, it won't be cold when you stuff some firewood under the kang later." "The temperature in April in the northeast is still the same as the winter in Guanzhong.

Zhang Taiping smiled and nodded, indicating that he understood.

Then the little girl ignored Zhang Taiping anymore, and began to take out the herbs in the back basket, mix the herbs according to the proportions on a recipe, and then put them in the medicine stove and squatted under the eaves to boil. Judging by her proficiency, it is obvious that she has not done less such things.

Zhang Taiping stood behind her for a long time, and the little girl who was serious about boiling medicine didn't notice it. It wasn't until the moment he poured out the liquid and turned around that he suddenly found a person standing behind him, startled, and as soon as his hand loosened the medicine jar, it fell to the ground. Zhang Taiping's eyes were quick, he reached out to the bottom and took the medicine jar in his hand, as if he didn't feel the hot temperature on it, and re-clamped it with an iron clip and handed it to the little girl's hand and said with a smile: "Be careful." ”

The little girl took the medicine and thanked her, then lowered her head and carried the medicine to the back room.
