CHAPTER IX

Everyone sat on the floor and began to talk. The original old man surnamed Guan, known as Guan Lao Tie, was originally the leader of the craftsmen of the Jinyang government-run iron-making workshop, and the ancestral iron-making skills, especially the ability to build the most advanced 100-level steel at that time. The old man has two sons, both of whom have learned to strike iron with him since he was a child, but also learned his ability to score seven or eight points, and the father and son are very famous in the iron industry in Jinyang. Once, a Changshi lord surnamed Cai from the Assassin Mansion in Bingzhou came here and prepared a high-quality iron-making material, and asked the housekeeper and his son to make a good knife for him, ready to use it to honor Shangguan. It's a pity that the manufacturing process of 100 steels is too complicated, and mistakes are inevitable, this time it happened to catch up with the mistakes, the refining failed, and a material was wasted, although it was said before the creation of various possibilities, but Cai Changshi turned his face and did not recognize people, did not forgive, and had to compensate the housekeeper father and son for a material, but the raw materials were really precious, how could the housekeeper father and son afford it, Cai Changshi was furious, and wanted to catch Guan Lao Tie to see the official, the two sides argued endlessly, and started to move, the eldest son of the old man was called Guan Hu, and he shot too hard, injured Cai Changshi, and was later wanted by the government, and he didn't know where he ran away for a long time. Cai Changshi couldn't catch Guan Hu, so he arrested the old man and went to see the official, and later spent all his savings before redeeming it. didn't dare to stay in Jinyang any longer, so he ran to the remote side to escape for a while. The young man behind him is called Guan Hai, Kong Wu is powerful, he has a good strength since he was a child, and he heard the story of Lu Bu's battle against the Huns, and he admired it very much. Later, I heard that Lu Bu had established a joint defense volunteer army, and he had long been clamoring to defect to Lu Bu. When Lu Bu heard that Guan Hai wanted to defect to him, he laughed happily: "Dad, what a coincidence, don't you know, we came here this time to invite Dad's to our village and help our volunteers build weapons." ”

Everyone talked happily, and the Guan father and son, who respected Lu Bu, agreed, moved to Lu Bu's village and helped Lu Bu build weapons. "What's going on? Old steward, you've only been here for a few months and you want to leave? Have you forgotten that your father and son came here in despair, who took you in? "There was a sound of talking outside the blacksmith shop, and a young man dressed in the costume of a Han Dynasty official walked in, followed by a dozen strong men in uniform clothes." Li Su, you are not your county lieutenant, why are you running here. Song Xian asked. Yo, isn't this Song Xian? I haven't seen you for a few days, why have you become so dark. Fat Song, when you see your cousin, won't you say hello to me? So rude. ”

Lu Bu whispered to Song Xian: "Do you know him?" "Big brother, his name is Li Su, he is the eldest son of the Li family in this Li Village, his father has the money to buy him a county lieutenant in Jiuyuan County, and the Li family also raises a team of five hundred Zhuang guards, which can be regarded as a big force in our Jiuyuan." He was my distant cousin who looked down on my family since he was a child and bullied me when they met. "Oh, let me meet him." Lu Bu walked up to Li Su, "This lord, I invited the blacksmith father and son, and I hope to give it a convenience." "Convenient for you? Who are you? "In Gerobu, a joint defense volunteer team has been built in the village, and there is a shortage of blacksmiths." "Oh, you're Lu Bu." I heard that it was Lu Bu, Li Su put away his previous madness, Lu Bu's story is now a household name in the entire Jiuyuan, and it was killed on the battlefield, in front of thousands of troops, and it can't be faked.

"Lu Bu, you are the hero who killed the Huns, and it is not difficult for me Li Su to do it for you, but the old man is a good blacksmith, and our Li family is also lacking such talents, so we can't let you take people away with a word. Well, let's do it, I also admire your skills, how about we make a bet, if you win, the blacksmith will be yours, if you lose, you Lu Bu will have to come to my Li Zhuang and give us Li Zhuang's team as the chief teacher, how about it? Dare to bet? ”

Hearing Li Su's conditions, Lu Bu frowned, this is Li Zhuang, in other people's land, it is definitely not possible to come hard, after thinking about it, Lu Bu replied: "It's not impossible to bet with you, but this bet has to be changed, if you win, I, Lu Bu, will be mixed with you from now on, if I win, I will not only have to manage the blacksmith, but I also want you Li Su and Li Zhuang's team to listen to my command, and when the Huns call, they will act with me." ”

"Okay, refreshing, Lu Bu, you are really a character, you don't even ask me what I want to bet with you? I agreed, you won, I, Li Su, and my Li Zhuang 500 Guardian Team will listen to you. ”

"It doesn't matter, whatever you bet on, just draw a line." Lu Bu didn't care.

"This gambling contract is actually very simple, fifty miles north of our Li Zhuang, there is a river beach, near the big meadow, recently I heard the horse farmers who have been there to graze horses say, there is a red monster, the speed is very fast, I can't see what it is, often stir the horses uneasy, although I haven't heard of monsters attacking people and horses, but I don't know what it is, so that everyone is a little uneasy, if you can catch or kill this monster, even if you win, if you lose, you Lu Buke is a member of the Li family."

Although I don't know what the red monster is, Lu Bu is a person from the past, and I don't believe that there are any demons and monsters in this world, it is nothing more than an unknown animal, and with his archery and marksmanship, there is really nothing to fear. Lu Bu and Li Su clapped their hands and swore an oath and made a gambling contract, limited to three days.

Lu Bu said goodbye to the blacksmith, asked for the location, and rushed to Bailong Beach, which was named because the waterways here are curved and shaped like dragons. The waterways are flanked by dense weeds, creating large natural meadows. The five of them dispersed slightly, and then began to move, moving forward in a netting style. But he didn't find anything for a long time, and Lu Bu felt that there were too few people, so he asked Song Xian to go back and bring his cavalry team, which was the only team equipped with horses in the five hundred volunteers, trained by Lu Bu himself, and was also the only standing army in the volunteers that did not produce anything. Soon Song Xian brought the cavalry, one hundred and five people scattered far away, plus the spear in his hand, this time the search area was much larger, and soon the meadows in Hexi were searched, but nothing was found. After crossing the river in shallow water, Lu Bu led everyone to start sweeping the meadows east of the river like a sieve. This time, I finally made a discovery, and halfway through the search, a red shadow jumped out of the grass at a rapid speed and rushed straight to the north. Seeing the prey he was looking for, Lu Bu made a gesture to let everyone slowly surround him from a distance, Lu Bu's eyes were sharp, and he soon saw the true face of the red shadow, it turned out to be a wild horse with a red mane, with long legs, a thin head and a high neck, delicate fur, fast and flexible running, and the skin on his body was also red.

Seeing that the red wild horse was about to break out of the encirclement, Lu Bu couldn't care about it, picked up the longbow, aimed at a place in front of it, and shot a feather arrow, the arrow shot just in front of the horse, the wild horse was frightened, and instinctively drove it to rush in a different direction. Lu Bu commanded everyone to surround it while continuing to shoot arrows to frighten it. Finally, the red wild horse rushed in the direction of Lu Bu, and it seemed to see that Lu Bu was the leader, so it rushed straight towards Lu Bu, and the speed was increased to the fastest. Lu Bu saw its intentions, and sighed in his heart that this beast also had an IQ, and he also greeted it. The speed of the horse was fast, and seeing that the two horses were about to pass by, the red horse actually lifted its hind hooves and kicked sideways towards Lu Bu's mount, and Lu Bu also moved, jumped up, and landed on the back of the red horse, and the two were synchronized. The red horse saw Lu Bu flying over, about to fall on his back, hurriedly retracted his hind hooves, and leaned forward, wanting to let Lu Bu fall into the air, but Lu Bu had already reached this step, when he fell down, it was not straight up and down, but in advance, seeing the red horse running forward, he also made a force on his waist and abdomen, and the body that fell moved forward a foot, just on the horse's buttocks, pressed his hands, moved his body forward again, and rode steadily on the horse's back, holding its mane with both hands, and tightly clamping the horse's belly with his legs. When the red horse saw that the person came to his back, he struggled desperately, and for a while the hind legs were lifted, and he was upright, and the front legs were in the air, and the person stood up, and he accelerated in a straight line, and suddenly braked, and he ran at great speed and turned suddenly. It's a pity that it met Lu Bu, who was born with divine power and skilled horseback riding skills, but he was busy for an hour, and he was tired and panting, but Lu Bu on the horseback did not move at all. Finally, the red horse stopped tossing, and let Lu Bu drive him, indicating his submission. Lu Bu rode back to the front of everyone on a red horse. Everyone is the descendant of Ma Hu, so naturally they will know each other, Song Xian looked at the red horse and gave a thumbs up. "Big brother, this is a good horse, look at this figure, look at this fur, this should be the offspring of a Dawan sweat blood horse, somehow it became a wild horse, and the bloodline is pure, its parents are almost all Dawan horses."

"Sweaty horses? It turns out that this is the legendary sweat and blood horse, traveling thousands of miles in a day and eight hundred at night, haha, Li Su is giving me a big gift, I don't know, what name can I give it to? "It's called the Red Dragon, it's fast, and it's red." Cheng Lian said. "It's not good, big brother, let's call it lightning." Song Xian suggested. "Also...... Or should it be called Xiaohong, this ...... So kind. Wei Xu also sent advice. Go, go, go, you won't be able to name it. Lu Feifei looked disgusted. The red horse didn't seem satisfied, shaking his head and gouging his front hooves. "I see. It looks so good, fast, flexible, moves like a rabbit, and has red fur, so let's call it a red rabbit! Lu Feifei said excitedly. I'm so glad I came up with a good name. Lu Bu on horseback was startled, "Red Rabbit", Lu Bu rode the world-famous Red Rabbit Horse, known as "Lu Bu among people, Red Rabbit among horses", the first BMW horse of the Three Kingdoms, is the red wild horse now?
