Chapter 782: Teaching Horsemanship
After selecting the horses, Song Qian and the others, with the help of several stables, led the horses they had selected and walked out to the pasture for horses to gallop not far away. As for Zhang Chengyuan and Xiao Jing, naturally they don't need the help of the stable, Zhang Chengyuan is holding the little white horse with one hand and the little crystal with the other, and Shi Shiran walks, and the two psychic horses of "Black Cloud" and "Red Cloud" don't need to be led, so they follow Zhang Chengyuan obediently.
When they came to the pasture, the stables began to teach Song Qian and others one-on-one, starting with the most basic contact and getting close to the horses, and then gradually. And Zhang Chengyuan didn't have so much trouble teaching Xiao Jing, he was joking with Xiao Jing, and at the same time, he used Yuan Shen to directly input all the necessary horseback riding skills and know-how into Xiao Jing's mind, and help her understand.
It didn't take long for Crystal's theoretical knowledge of equestrianism to reach the level of a professional rider, and all that was lacking was practice and practice. Then, Zhang Chengyuan asked Xiao Jing to get close to the little white horse by himself, get on the horse by himself, and ride it to pace slowly, while he rode the "black cloud" to watch from the side, occasionally reminding her of a sentence or two.
Little Crystal is very intelligent and agile, so it won't be long before she can easily navigate the tame little white horse and walk slowly, but if you want to gallop, you obviously need more practice. At that moment, Zhang Chengyuan rode the black cloud and slowly trotted up with the little white horse under the crotch of the little crystal, so that the little crystal's body could quickly adapt to the running state of the horse while trying to avoid accidents. And with him by his side, if there is any accident, it can also be saved.
The trot lasted about twenty minutes. I saw that the little crystal gradually got used to it. Zhang Chengyuan sped up a little. And not long after, after Xiao Crystal got used to it again, he sped up again...... In this way, after about two hours, Xiao Crystal was able to ride the horse more easily.
However, at this time, Xiao Jing was already suffering from backache and leg pain, so Zhang Chengyuan took her back on horseback, and then hugged her to get off the horse for a while. And secretly used true qi to help her dredge the qi and blood of her whole body, so as to relieve fatigue and accelerate the recovery of her body. At this moment, Song Qian and the others had just ridden the horse and walked slowly under the traction of the stable, so when they saw that Xiao Jing had been able to ride a horse and gallop, they couldn't help but be amazed, and at the same time, they were also surprised by Zhang Chengyuan's teaching ability and Xiao Jing's learning ability.
Sitting on the stone chair next to him and chatting for a while, Xiao Jing suddenly said: "Oppa, why don't you teach a few sisters as well, according to their current learning speed." I'm afraid that it will take many more days of practice before I can reach the level I am now. ”
Zhang Chengyuan said softly: "Do you want me to expose the secret of the Yuanshen method?" Except for Song Qian. I don't have full trust in your other three sisters. ”
Xiao Jing said: "Brother, apart from the method of copying the primordial gods, don't you have any other way to quickly teach them the knowledge of horsemanship?" ”
Zhang Chengyuan said: "Of course I can, I can teach them personally, and then use the power of the Yuan Shen to secretly help them not forget and understand at one point, but this will take at least two hours to explain, which is too troublesome." And even if they memorize and understand all the theoretical knowledge, it is impossible for them to reach your level very quickly, because they do not have the skills of you. ”
"But it's many times faster than having someone else teach you, right? Brother, go teach them. Xiao Jing shook Zhang Chengyuan's arm and said.
Zhang Chengyuan said: "Okay, I'll just teach, I really can't help you." ”
"Thank you, brother!" Little Crystal laughed.
After a while, when Song Qian and others rode back slowly, Zhang Chengyuan beckoned them to come over, and then personally taught them the steps of horseback riding, the essentials of various matters that have been paid attention to, etc., he spoke very carefully and deeply, almost all the equestrian knowledge that professional riders need to master, and with the help of the power of the Yuanshen, he was not afraid that they would not remember and understand, so he spoke quickly, and almost only talked about everything, but even so, after he finished speaking, it had already passed about two and a half hours.
And for Song Qian and others, Zhang Chengyuan is only afraid that he is the best riding instructor in the world, his voice is deafening, it seems that there is a special magic that allows them to quickly understand and memorize these many rare knowledge, if they can be so fast and efficient every time they learn knowledge, then they have definitely become a knowledgeable figure now. At the same time, they also admired Zhang Chengyuan more and more, thinking that he deserved to be a graduate of the highest university, and if he concentrated on academics and became a professor, it would definitely be more than enough.
After Zhang Chengyuan finished explaining, Song Qian and the others felt that they had gained a lot, and couldn't help but want to ride on the horse again to practice the knowledge they had just learned, but they suddenly felt hungry in their stomachs, and they wanted to make a sound, and after looking at the time, it turned out that it was almost three o'clock in the afternoon.
Zhang Chengyuan smiled and took them to the restaurant in the racecourse for a fairly hearty lunch.
In fact, the staff of the racecourse had already prepared their lunch, and they had long wanted to come over and invite them to dinner, but they didn't dare to come over to disturb them because they saw that Zhang Chengyuan was talking energetically, so they delayed until now. However, at that time, all the women listened attentively to Zhang Chengyuan's explanation, but they didn't feel hungry.
After lunch and a rest, the girls practiced riding again with great interest, and this time because they understood everything, it was much easier to master all kinds of technical movements. Of course, just in case, Zhang Chengyuan and the horses did not dare to be negligent, they still took care of them very carefully, and they would also remind them from time to time, after all, mastering theoretical knowledge does not mean that they have really learned a skill.
While parting some of their minds to look at Song Qian and others, Zhang Chengyuan and Xiao Jing played a game of 5,000-meter horse chase. This time, Xiao Jing did not ride her little white horse, but Cheng Youli's jujube red horse "Red Cloud", after all, her little white horse has not yet grown, compared with Zhang Chengyuan's "Black Cloud", the disparity in strength is too great, so it would be too boring if it was a competition.
Of course, because the gap between Xiao Crystal's riding skills and Zhang Chengyuan is too big, if it is a fair game, it will still lose. Therefore, Zhang Chengyuan let Xiao Jing ride a horse and run for half a minute. Then he began to chase after him.
Xu was the first horse riding competition. The little crystal watch xiàn was very excited, at the beginning of the race, she rode her horse and galloped wildly, without any fear, and although her movements were a little rusty, there was no difference cuò, and she cooperated with the "red cloud" quite tacitly, so the table xiàn was very good. When Zhang Chengyuan was about to start going, he had already run more than 400 meters away, which was far beyond Zhang Chengyuan's estimate.
But Zhang Chengyuan was not in a hurry, calmly rode his horse to catch up, and shortened the distance little by little, when there were nearly 500 meters left, he finally caught up with Xiao Jing, and then he controlled his speed and rode with her. Although it was a competition, how could he have the heart to really win Little Crystal?
Little Crystal saw him catch up. Knowing that she had already lost this game, it was no fun to continue competing. He slowly slowed down and finally stopped. Zhang Chengyuan also stopped and said with a smile: "Crystal, you haven't reached the end yet, and you're admitting defeat?" Doesn't that look like your personality? ”
Xiao Jing said: "If I compete with others, of course I will persevere, but if I compete with you, my brother, I don't need to die." ”
Zhang Chengyuan said: "Do you think you have no chance of winning at all?" ”
Xiao Jing said: "Isn't this obvious? However, brother, I will lose to you because my riding skills are too bad now, but after I practice riding, we will compete again, and I believe that then I will lose, and I will not lose as simply as I do today, and maybe I will win. ”
Zhang Chengyuan said: "Then I'll wait for the day when you win over me." Uh, Crystal, do you want to do it better than anything else, like crossing a barrier or something? ”
Xiao Jing said with a bitter face: "Brother, you think too highly of me, how can I be so skilled now?" Oh, I see, you're teasing me. ”
Zhang Chengyuan responded with a smile, he was indeed just teasing her, and at the same time secretly admonishing her not to be proud.
Xiao Jing continued: "Brother, when it comes to overcoming obstacles, I haven't seen it with my own eyes, why don't you show me a performance?" No, it's better to take me through all kinds of obstacles, it must be fun. ”
Zhang Chengyuan sighed slightly and said, "As long as you girl likes to play tricks, I'll take you to have a good time." As he spoke, he suddenly leaned out, hugged the little crystal, and placed it in front of him.
Xiao Jing leaned on his arms, was very happy, and said with a smile: "Brother, you are so good!" I haven't hurt you in vain all these years! ”
"Girl, what do you say? What a wage! Zhang Chengyuan tapped her head with a free hand.
……
After spending more than an hour and playing various tricks with Xiao Jing, Zhang Chengyuan and Xiao Jing returned to Song Qian and the others, and then dismounted to rest. At this time, Song Qian's riding skills seemed to have improved a lot, and they were already able to ride horses and trot and turn left and right neatly. And because of the rapid progress, they became more and more interested, and practiced more diligently, and they were reluctant to rest at all.
When Zhang Chengyuan saw it, he beckoned to them and shouted: "Song Qian, come down, don't be too tired, otherwise you will definitely be sore when you wake up tomorrow." ”
Song Qian and the others were having a good time, and after hearing Zhang Chengyuan's words, they were a little reluctant in their hearts, but they didn't dare to disobey Zhang Chengyuan's words after all, and he was indeed a good intention, so they all rode horses and trotted to Zhang Chengyuan's side, and then dismounted to rest. As soon as they sat down, they felt that their legs and waist were indeed a little sore, and they couldn't help but thank Zhang Chengyuan for a few words.
Zhang Chengyuan waved his hand and said: "No matter what sport you learn, you usually have to let your body have a process of adaptation, and you must not be in a hurry, and the same is true for horseback riding." If you're interested in horseback riding, you can come a few times later, and there's no need to rush it. ”
Song Qian and the others nodded.
Xiao Jing suddenly said: "Brother, although your horse riding farm has a very good environment and is very quiet, it is too far away from Seoul, and it is too time-consuming and inconvenient, so why don't you buy a horse farm in the suburbs of Seoul?" ”
Zhang Chengyuan pondered for a while and said: "There seems to be a horse riding arena in Seongdong District on the other side of Gangnam/District in Seoul, but the area is much smaller, but it is better to be close enough, so I will let you Sister Jixiu try to buy it, so if you want to ride a horse occasionally in the future, you don't have to run so far, but it may be too noisy." ”
Xiao Jing said: "It doesn't matter, if we have more time, we will go here to ride horses and relax, and if we don't have much time to rest, we will practice at the horse farm in the eastern district of the city." ”
"Well, it's not bad to have a good balance." Zhang Chengyuan agreed. (To be continued......)
