Volume 2 Shendu is as deep as the sea Chapter 118 The secret room of the Hou Mansion (third update)
It's just that now Shen Guang saw the blood-maned horse from a distance, but after being surprised, his eyes lit up, and he shouted in a lost voice: "The legendary blood-maned horse really exists." β
Hearing the voice, Wang Junlin turned his head to look over, beckoned to Shen Guang and Guo'er, whose little face was full of nervousness and fear, and motioned for them to come over.
Shen Guang didn't dare to slack off, and led his sister to walk up quickly, and when he was five steps away from Wang Junlin, he knelt down and said, "Shen Guang and his sister Shen Guo'er will see Lord Hou." β
Wang Junlin walked up, personally helped Shen Guang up, and then pulled Shen Guo'er up casually, and said, "My rules, I don't have to kneel when I see me in the future." β
After speaking, he turned his head to Guo'er, whose little face was nervous and pale, and smiled and said, "This is Sister Guo'er!" looks so delicate, but this body is too thin and weak, and the face is not very good. β
Speaking of this, Wang Junlin turned to Zhanpeng next to him and said, "I will arrange an independent courtyard for their brothers and sisters later, select two clever maids to serve Guo'er, and then take my name card and send someone to the Jin Palace's Mansion to invite Dr. Mao to come over and take a look at Guo'er's illness." β
Although Zhan Peng didn't understand why his lord valued the Shen family brothers and sisters so much, he would not disobey Wang Junlin's order, and hurriedly bowed down.
Shen Guang and Shen Guo'er were a little stunned by Wang Junlin's words, although their brothers and sisters had extraordinary minds, they never thought that this legendary poisonous general Hou Ye would value them so much on the first day they met and give them such high courtesy.
"Thank you Master Hou, it's just that we ......" For a while, the brother and sister felt like a dream, but then they became a little nervous, which is a common problem of smart people.
Wang Junlin couldn't see the change in the expressions of the two brothers and sisters and the thoughts in their hearts, and gave Zhan Peng a look, and the latter immediately said with a smile: "You brothers and sisters don't think too much, after a long time, you will know that Hou Ye loves soldiers like children, let alone be good to the people around him, before coming to the capital, Hou Ye also rewarded more than 20 stunning beauties worth thousands of gold to his subordinates in one go!" β
When Zhan Peng said these words, Wang Junlin had already returned to the blood-maned horse and said, "Shen Guang, I heard that you can use Soma, you can tell me about the art of Soma." β
Shen Guang thought that Wang Junlin had sent someone to inquire about him yesterday, so he didn't think much about Wang Junlin knowing that he would be Soma.
Hearing the words at this time, Shen Guang took a deep breath, stepped forward, and looked at the blood-maned horse with a strange light in his eyes, and said: "Back to the Hou Ye, the art of Soma is actually far less profound than the world thinks, and the words 'see' and 'touch' are similar to the doctor's diagnosis, and the inheritance and one's own experience account for half, and there is no other shortcut to follow." β
Shen Guang was not frightened, as he spoke, he looked around, went to the hay stack next to him, and grabbed a handful of alfalfa back, this thing is the favorite of horses, no matter how noble the horse is, it is also an indispensable horse material for raising horses.
Shen Guang's eyes noticed that Wang Junlin was listening very seriously, so he received more encouragement, and continued: "When approaching the horse, don't come from the side, but from the front, it's best to make some movement to let it know that it's coming." β
"Because the horse's eyes are not very good, generally can't see people clearly, but the ears are smart, as long as it speaks, it knows that someone is coming, Hou Ye, please see, this blood-maned BMW is looking at the villain at this time, in fact, it can't see clearly, but it just heard the villain's voice."
"At this time, you can't be afraid, the untamed horse will either run away long ago, if this blood-maned BMW is not tamed by the Hou Ye, it will not run, and will only attack the comer. Now it didn't move, it didn't snort, and it didn't attack, which means that Hou Ye is here, and he believes in his safety very much. However, the villain is a living person, so if you want to get into a relationship with it, the best way is to feed it something to eat first, as the old saying goes, if you want to take it, you must give it first, that's the truth. β
As he spoke, he stretched the alfalfa in his hand towards the blood-maned horse's mouth.
The blood-maned horse smelled the scent of alfalfa, immediately leaned over, sniffed it, opened its mouth and began to nibble.
Wang Junlin looked at it in his eyes, and then thought about what Shen Guang said, and couldn't help but think of adults using sugar to coax young children. The truth may be the same.
"Master Hou, you see, the blood-maned BMW has eaten what the villain feeds, and it has a short mouth, at this time, the villain can touch it."
Guo'er listened to it interestingly, and laughed out loud, but immediately covered her mouth, stuck out her tongue, and secretly glanced at Wang Junlin next to her.
Wang Junlin nodded slightly, expressing his affirmation of what Shen Guang said.
Shen Guang continued: "The blood-maned horse is the most spiritual horse in the world, very smart, and the nose is also smart, so touch the horse's nose first, if you want the blood-maned horse to recognize, you must let it smell the smell of the villain, its ears are also smart, talk in its ear, let it remember the villain's voice." β
After speaking, he leaned next to the horse's ears and whispered a few words while caressing the bloodmaned horse's neck.
"Master Hou, please look, when it looks at the villain again, it has completely lost the ferocity and hostility just now, and is willing to get close to the villain, if it is an ordinary horse at this time, the villain can even ride up and run a few steps, but the blood-maned horse will only let one master ride for life."
"Yes, go on." Wang Junlin looked appreciative.
"Thank you, Master Hou, let's take a look at the teeth of the blood-maned horse first."
He took the alfalfa and fed the blood-maned horse, and took the opportunity to take a closer look, and said: "A good horse breeder, just by looking at the teeth, you can know how old it is, but this depends on the accumulation of years of experience, although the villain has a family history, but the experience is not very much, it can only be seen that this blood-maned horse should be almost two years old." β

After lunch, while waiting for the Nighthawk Envoy to deliver the latest information, Wang Junlin and Shen Guang walked towards the study. Shen Guang had already told Wang Junlin about the original owner of this mansion and his past.
Such a coincidence also made Wang Junlin slightly surprised, and simply asked Shen Guang to take him to familiarize himself with the mansion.
The study is located in the easternmost part of the main courtyard, surrounded by lush laurel trees, and is close to a three-zhang high rockery.
Wang Junlin had actually come to the study last night, but just now he heard Shen Guang say that there was another secret room in the study, and as soon as he came in, he began to investigate.
It didn't take long for Wang Junlin to look at Shen Guang's astonishment, and he smiled and pointed to the bookcase in the corner without any books and asked, "The entrance to the secret room is here." β
"Master Hou's eyes are like torches, and he admires him very much." Shen Guang sincerely patted his ass.
Seeing that Wang Junlin just smiled and didn't answer, he continued: "This is Yu Qingze's outer study, three years ago, he copied all the books, but he didn't seem to find that there was a secret room here. β
"What's inside?" Wang Junlin asked with an interested expression.
Yu Qing has a penchant for collecting famous weapons, and half of his life's wealth is used for this. As far as the humble officials know, these should be extremely valuable armor and weapons, which are treasures that Yu Qingze has collected for decades. β
When Wang Junlin heard this, he couldn't help but be overjoyed, and his interest was even stronger, what could be the famous weapons that Yu Qing treasured?
Since he learned the horse lance with Yu Juluo, he has been thinking about getting a suitable horse lance to use, but the horse lance is the most troublesome and expensive weapon to build among the eighteen kinds of weapons, with Wang Junlin's current wealth, it is not difficult to sell an ordinary horse lance, but if you want to find a famous craftsman to build a superb horse lance, it is not possible to do it in three or five years.
Horse lance is very expensive, but also difficult to do, not a wooden stick tied to an iron head can be called a lance, can be said to be a valuable weapon since the Qin and Han dynasties, a horse lance has a lot of exquisiteness, the lance is not like the foot lance used in the wooden pole at all, but take the trunk of the best tough wood, peel into the uniform thickness of the scorn, glued together, the tough wood to make the bow with the top wood for the most, the second to mulberry, oak, rattan, the worst also have to use bamboo. Soak the fine scorn in oil repeatedly, soak it until it is no longer deformed and cracked, and then the first step is completed.
And this process takes nearly a year, after a year, the strip is taken out, dried in the shade for several months, and then glued with the best glue paint into a handful of thick, eight long, and then the outer layer is wound with hemp rope, until the hemp rope is dry, coated with raw lacquer, wrapped in kudzu cloth, dry layer by layer, until cut with a knife, the lance makes a metallic sound, but it does not crack, so it is qualified.
Then go to its head and tail, truncated to about six zhang, the front is loaded with a steel lance, after the red copper lance, constantly adjusted, the qualified standard is to use a hemp rope to hang at the tail of the lance two feet, the whole zhang eight horse lance can be in mid-air like a scale rod at both ends do not fall or fall. Only in this way can the general, on his horse, keep the tip of the lance forward without the slightest effort.
The resulting lance is light, tough, and strong. Generals can charge with horsepower, or swing them in melee combat. However, it takes at least three years to complete the lance, and the success rate is only 40%, so the cost is surprisingly high.
Therefore, since the Han and Tang Dynasties, the horse lance has always been a symbol of the generals from the family. With the wealth of Emperor Wu of Liang in the south, he made a lance two feet and four feet long, and he also had to go around to show off with others. In the Great Sui, only the descendants of the royal forbidden army were equipped with a large number of standard horse lances. The soldiers and horses of other provinces usually find a wooden stick and fill it with an iron tip, and this kind of fake and shoddy product can only be called a spear strictly speaking, and it has nothing to do with the lance.
Therefore, during this time, Wang Junlin has been asking Sun Wentao to ask for a lot of money. I bought a good horse lance for use, but more than a month has passed, and there is no news so far.
The study room of a large family is divided into inside and outside, and the study here strictly belongs to the outer study, the outer study is very bright, covered with a thin layer of dust, Shen Guang pointed to the bookcase in front of him, which is more than a foot high, and said: "I was fortunate to stay outside three years ago, and I saw Yu Qingze open the secret room and walk into it alone, but Yu Qingze never allowed anyone to enter it except himself. β
PS: The third more is sent, begging for support, asking for a monthly pass, asking for recommendations and collectionsββββ
