Chapter 11: The First Horseback Ride

On the second day, Liu Zhan made millet porridge early in the morning.

After the master and apprentice had breakfast, Liu Zhan asked, "Master, is this trip far?" ”

"It's half a day to ride a fast horse, don't worry about it, you have a horse in your yard, are you still afraid of going out?"

Liu Zhan's head suddenly had a black line: "Master, the apprentice doesn't know how to ride a horse yet." ”

“……”

Looking at the lively Liu Zhan, Li Yan was embarrassed on the spot, speechless, he didn't expect that Liu Zhan, who was agile, couldn't ride a horse.

Li Yan took a black horse, quickly tied Liu Zhan's legs to the horse's belly, and whipped the horse's buttocks.

The black horse was in pain, raised his head and neighed, and rushed out of the yard like a smoke. The black fur of the black horse is as shiny as silk, there is not a single stray hair, the long mane swings in the wind, and the four legs are thick and powerful, making it a rare good horse.

The black horse rushed out of the village and came to the way out of the village, running wildly all the way, and Liu Zhan was tossed upside down for a while.

To Li Yan's surprise, in less than a cup of tea, Liu Zhan actually learned to ride a horse, and he seemed to be very proficient.

Looking at Liu Zhan, who returned from horseback, Li Yan smiled slightly and stroked his gray beard: "Sure enough, it is a good seedling that is rare in a century, and it will depend on you to expand the door in the future, hehe"

Liu Zhan learned to ride a horse, and when he heard Li Yan praise himself, he suddenly got carried away, he let go of the reins, patted the horse's back with both hands, kicked his legs, jumped on the horse's back, and yelled: "Drive!" ”

The dark horse seemed to feel that Liu Zhan had gone too far, and intended to tease Liu Zhan, so he accelerated his pace and ran towards a private house for a distance, ran to the side of the private house and suddenly closed his hooves and stood in place, watching Liu Zhan fly forward.

Liu Zhan was caught off guard and crashed into the house, leaving a human-shaped hole in the wall.

The black horse hissed, as if telling Liu Zhan: Small, let you be scared.

Li Yan heard the bang, his face sank, and he hurriedly ran to the house, and before he ran a few steps, he saw Liu Zhan walking out of the "humanoid hole" with a disgraced face.

Seeing that Liu Zhan was fine, Li Yan looked up and laughed with a gloating face: "Haha! ”

I saw Liu Zhan walking towards the black horse with murderous aura, jumping on the horse, grabbing the long mane of the black horse with both hands, and clamping the horse's belly with both legs: "Drive!" ”。

The black horse was in pain, and galloped towards the outside of the village.

Half an hour later, Liu Zhan rode back, at this time it was already sunset in the western mountains, and the birds entered the mountains and forests.

Li Yan saw Liu Zhan coming back, and beckoned Liu Zhan to eat: "Come, good apprentice, eat some dry food." Have a good rest tonight, and we'll go back to the mountain gate early tomorrow morning. ”

"Yes, Master." Liu Zhanfei dismounted and was about to salute, when he saw Li Yanyi wave his hand: "You and I don't have to be so vain. ”

Liu Zhan took the dry food, gnawed it up, and turned his head to look at Li Yan: "Master, can you take all the living things in this courtyard away?" I'm afraid they'll starve to death. ”

Li Yan thought for a while, nodded and agreed: "It's okay, the horses in your courtyard look good at their feet, and they are all good horses." ”

"In addition to the horses, there are two dogs."

"Bring it with you, too." Li Yan replied casually, and only reacted as soon as the words fell, "Well-why didn't you say it earlier, so that you and I would eat dry food here." Well, let's put those two dogs in our stomachs and take them away. ”

Liu Zhan was a little embarrassed, and reluctantly said: "Master, dogs are loyal friends of human beings, how can we bear to attack our friends?" You say yes. ”

"Fool, why are you so pedantic at such a young age. Now in this world, people can't eat, many people are starving to death, you are still there to pity the two dogs, the husband can't have the kindness of a woman. ”

"But, Master, dogs are good friends of man." Liu Zhan replied weakly.

Li Yan waved his hand: "If you are a loyal friend of human beings, you should stand up when people are in trouble." Where is the dog, why haven't I heard the dog bark in the past two days? ”

"In the kitchen, they're probably hungry."

Li Yan strode outside the house: "Okay, that's it, just come when you go for the teacher." ”

Looking at Li Yan's figure, Liu Zhan was a little helpless, so he could only let Li Yan do it.

As soon as Li Yan left the house, he saw the black horse waiting at the door of the house, as if waiting for Liu Zhan to come out of the house.

Liu Zhan gently took the reins, turned over on the horse, and patted the horse's back: "Ma'er, you will be mixed with me in the future, and if you have a bite to eat, you will have a bite to eat." ”

The horse let out a long howl, as if he understood.

Liu Zhan said softly: "I'm leaving here tomorrow, let's go around." After speaking, he touched the long mane of the black horse and clamped his legs.

The black horse neighed, its hooves rolled over, and rushed out of the yard.

In less than an hour, Liu Zhan rode back, and as soon as he entered the hospital, he saw Li Yan kneeling in front of the desk and eating dog meat. Seeing this scene, Liu Zhan shook his head helplessly, and scolded for a while: Your old man just ate a wild boar last night, why are you so greedy?

Li Yan didn't raise his head, stirred his cheeks, and leaked a sentence from his mouth: "Apprentice, come and taste the craftsmanship of being a teacher, even your master doesn't have this blessing." ”

As soon as Liu Zhan was about to open his mouth to refuse, his stomach "gurgled", and when he reached his mouth, he swallowed back into his stomach to "suppress" the rebellious stomach.

Li Yan pointed to the dog meat on the table next to him: "Eat it quickly, it won't be fragrant if it's cold for a while." ”

In his previous life, Liu Zhan was alone and had never eaten food cooked by his family. At this moment, Li Yan's seemingly rude actions seemed to be like a warm current flowing in Liu Zhan's heart. Liu Zhan no longer twisted, knelt directly in front of the desk, picked up the meat and ate it.

Li Yan smiled with satisfaction: "That's right, apprentice, you are growing your body, you need to eat more." ”

Liu Zhan was moved in his heart, and replied without raising his head: "Thank you, Master!" ”

The master and apprentice came to the courtyard after eating. Li Yan took out a piece of bamboo slip from his arms and threw it to Liu Zhan: "This is the mantra of the long halberd of this door, you must memorize it by heart." ”

"Thank you, Master!" Liu Zhan quickly finished reading the formula, and then returned the bamboo slip to Li Yan.

Li Yan was stunned for a moment, but he didn't expect Liu Zhan to return it, and asked with some surprise: "What, can't you read?" ”

Liu Zhan smiled slightly: "The apprentice has already written it down, please take it away." ”

Li Yan gave a thumbs up: "The children can be taught!" ”

At this time, the black horse trotted to Liu Zhan, lowered his horse's head and rubbed affectionately in Liu Zhan's arms.

Li Yan's eyes lit up: "Hey! This black horse is really spiritual, let the teacher ride a few laps. As soon as he finished speaking, he took the reins and tried to turn over and get on his horse.

The black horse seemed to only recognize Liu Zhan and did not want to be ridden by Li Yan, so he immediately let out a long howl and raised his front hooves to kick Li Yan.

Li Yan let go of the reins, quickly dodged sideways, and took a few steps back: "Still choose the master?" See how the old man submits you! Before he could finish speaking, he jumped and rushed towards the black horse.

After two days of contact, Liu Zhan asked Chu himself to have a good face as a cheap master, and Liu Zhan saw that the master wanted to "overlord hard bow", so he hurriedly ran to the side of the black horse before Li Yan, and quickly stroked the black horse's mane, hoping that the black horse could be honest and save some face for the master.

The dark horse hissed lightly, and seemed to understand Liu Zhan's thoughts.

Li Yan rushed to the side of the black horse, grabbed the reins again, jumped on the horse's back, and instantly "surrendered" the black horse, and then pulled the reins and clamped his legs: "Drive." ”

The dark horse is very obedient to the command and prohibits.

Watching Li Yan riding around the yard, Liu Zhan's heart was warm, and he smiled slightly: "It's good to have a master!" ”
