Xue Li was extremely enthusiastic about his brother's affairs, and he was selected among the young shepherds who came to sign up at that time. Pneading this arm, patting that chest, out of one hundred and twenty, eighty people were picked. Many Duoduo didn't even have the qualifications to be selected, so they ran home angrily to find his sister.

After a while, Lu Mu came, and he hurled at Gao Jun: "Save me, Master Gao, you can let me live for two more days." In this way, with the special permission of the tall people, many of them were hired.

Xue Li said, "When I joined the pastoral team, I didn't want to be in the limelight, but if I wanted to be in the limelight, I left immediately." "No one squeaked.

Xue Li also said, "In the future, I and my companions are in danger at the same time, so we must save our companions first, and if we can't do it, we have to leave immediately." Everyone looked at each other, and Xue Li pulled out the iron bow he was carrying and put it in front of everyone, "Who can pull this bow away?" ”

Some of the shepherds were eager to try, their faces were swollen and red, and they couldn't pull it, and they tried more than a dozen in a row, but none of them did. Gao Jun also had itchy hands and said, "I'll try," and when he picked up the bow, he felt very heavy, almost as heavy as his own oolong knife. After Gao Jun stood up, he pushed the back of the bow with his left hand and pulled the bowstring with his right hand, and he only pulled it seventy percent with all his strength. Gao Jun said, "Don't say aiming, it's hard to pull!" ”

Xue Li took the bow, drew an arrow, and looked upwards to see a goshawk in the sky leisurely spreading its wings and gliding. Xue Li pulled the bow like a full moon, and it was like an arrow against a meteor. Everyone followed with their backs to the sky, and they didn't see how the arrow flew up, but they saw the goshawk's body crooked and fell to the ground, and the arrow was stuck in the eagle's chest.

The shepherds stuck out their tongues, and they all admired it in their hearts.

Xue Li said, "It doesn't matter if you can't pull this bow, but if you do what I say, he won't dare to underestimate you if he meets someone better than me in the future." When everyone was thinking about Xue Li's words, Xue Li asked again, "If you and your companions are in danger at the same time, who will you save first?" ”

All the shepherds had an epiphany and replied in unison, "Save your companions first!" ”

Xue Li said, "Exactly! Each person has only one pair of eyes and one hand, and if he takes care of himself when facing the enemy, he will be broken by the enemy in various places. Only after understanding this truth can you be qualified to learn the techniques of archery and fighting. ”

After Brother Xue's words, everyone benefited a lot, and Gao Jun also had a feeling of being stunned, knowing that Xue Li was sincere in teaching. When Lot Dao brought the master of the hoop bucket to come, Gao Jun called him over again and asked him to buy the equipment according to Brother Xue's requirements, and emphatically said, "The crossbow bow should be bought for seven consecutive shots, and the four consecutive shots should not be used, don't feel sorry for the silver." ”

In the evening, Liu Mucheng carried Liu Caixia back to her rented house, lowered his head and cooked the meal, and brought it to Liu Caixia. Then find a low stool and sit down, still without speaking.

In the past, Lord Liu went back after finishing the meal, but today his appearance of wanting to speak and stopping made Liu Caixia very strange. For more than half a month, Lord Liu has always appeared in front of her on time, which is more accurate than clocks. This man is not smiling, but he is considerate everywhere. Considerate everywhere, but never overstepping. Liu Caixia felt a little inseparable from him.

Seeing Lord Liu like this, Liu Caixia asked softly, "Is it that you won't carry me from tomorrow?" ”

Liu Wu raised his eyes and looked at her, "Caixia...... I have something in my heart that I want to say to you alone, and I have been holding it for a day and a night, and I don't know where to start. But if you don't say it, even I won't be able to stand it! ”

"Lord Liu, you say...... I listened. ”

"I think you're a good woman, and I know I shouldn't lie to you, let alone myself...... But you have to know that I'm here for your good. ”

"Say it quickly! I'm going to die! ”

Liu Wu made up his mind, "That's the case...... Well...... Actually, I've liked you for a long time, can you move to my house? You see that you are alone here, as long as you agree, I will go and tell Master Gao, you don't have to worry about the Wu family. ”

Liu Caixia's heart was beating wildly, "Lord Liu, are you using this to lie to me?" You are not the same as others who deceive people, and it is a deception to speak out first. How nice it would be for me to take it for real...... Although I have ...... at home"

"Oh, otherwise I wouldn't have said this, the person who came from Dingzhou yesterday was Brother Xue, who was worshiped by the tall people. He made a detour to bring you a message from Liu Zhongmu...... Say that the man in your family has taken you out of the ...... He said that you are away all the year round, and you can't take care of the family...... He took his daughter and found a rich widow. According to Brother Xue, the father and daughter are doing well now. ”

Liu Caixia's eyes looked at Lord Liu steadily, and tears rolled out of her eyes after a while. The heart said that Dingzhou, this gambler, can he understand people's minds so far away? For a while, I couldn't tell whether it was sad or joyful.

Liu Wu hurriedly said, "I said something wrong? Do you agree? I must be thinking of getting my daughter back...... Nod your head if you agree...... Don't just cry...... Good! I'm going to go to Master Gao and say!! ”

Early the next morning, before Liu Caixia got up, she woke up with a crackling firecracker at the door, and she was suspicious. I saw Mrs. Liu, Xie Shi, Fan Ying, as well as Miss Gao Chang and Yang Yatou coming in with happy faces.

Mrs. Liu said with a smile, "Lord Liu is really old and serious, and he still keeps the bride in the dark!" ”

Gao Chang said, "What are you doing in a daze?" No matter how bold we are, we won't dare to carry you over like this! ”

As he spoke, a large makeup box was carried from behind everyone, and people shook out their new red clothes, helped Liu Caixia put them on, hurriedly combed her hair, dressed up neatly, and helped her out of the door.

Liu Caixia saw a sedan chair parked outside the door, Liu Wu wore a saffron on his chest, rubbed his hands and stood beside the sedan chair a little embarrassed, and the tall man on the street in the distance was laughing and laughing with a few people. Chen Ba, Chen Jiu's daughter-in-law and others in the village are also busy. Liu Caixia was confused and asked a few women to stuff them into the sedan chair, and listened to the sound of suona.

The two houses are diagonally across the street, and they arrived quickly. Liu Caixia asked people to help her out, and when she saw Wu standing at the door, there was no unhappy look on her face, and said to her, "Don't call me sister yet." ”

Gao Jun was laughing with a few colleagues on the street, and saw the deputy pastor of Jiaohe Shepherd Wang Yunda riding a horse and bringing his entourage from the village. Wang Yunda saw Gao Jun at a glance, hugged his fist and said, "Lord Gao, don't come to harm!" I heard that Liu Mucheng was happy today, and I also came to join in the fun. I also heard that Master Gao took people around the desert a few days ago? Ha, there was nothing missing when I came back, but there were more than 100 cow tails missing, haha, I heard that cow dung is used to cook rice in that kind of place, hahaha, is it a cow tail that is burned after cow dung is burned? ”

Gao Jun looked at the appearance of Lu Mu beside him, and sneered in his heart, the news was revealed from him, seeing that the old guy surnamed Lu inquired about the village moving over and over again, and he also got involved in Wang Yunda's group.

"Lord Wang, haven't you heard that I have one hundred and thirty horses for nothing? That's the real deal! Right now, I, Liu Zhongmu, have more than 4,100 horses! Hehe, even if half of the mares are lazy this year, Liu Zhongmu can squeeze into the upper herd pile this year. There is no way, Lord Wang, Liu Wuren is handsome, promoted and married a daughter-in-law, there are many good things! ”

Gao Jun clearly told Wang Yunda that once Liu Zhongmu was promoted to the upper pastor, Liu Wu would be promoted two levels in a row, from the eighth rank to the eighth rank upper, the implication is that you Wang Yunda is not also two levels lower than me?

The two of them spoke openly and secretly, and entered the table with everyone. Gao Jun secretly thought that Wang Yunda's happy and crazy appearance may just show his weakness. After the lack of heart is madness, you really have to be careful!

Gao Jun ignored him, and only cared about pushing the cup and changing the lamp with Brother Xue Li, who was at the same table, while chatting about the training of the shepherd team. Lot has already purchased bows, crossbows, long knives, cowhide armor and other equipment and protective gear, and the stone locks used to train arm strength have also pulled a large cart, and there are several sets of sizes. The young shepherds who were selected for the shepherd protection team practiced with great vigor.

"Brother, don't say it, although the power called Duoduo is not great, but being a crossbowman must be very competent." Brother Xue said.

Gao Jun took a sip of wine, and suddenly became a little sullen, "Big brother, some people who have never been favored are getting better day by day, it seems to be reborn...... For example, there are many, many more. But some people are still like people, but they are becoming less and less like them...... Do you think I'm going to be polite to them? ”

Xue Li said, "That means that he is not a human being in the first place, but he is so exposed to the sun that he can no longer wear a coat." As soon as you take off your coat, you are not human! Brother, as long as you act above board, learn from the mind of the sun, who can help you. ”

The two were whispering, when they heard a commotion on Wang Yunda's table, and many cups, plates, and chopsticks were swept to the ground. The two looked there together, only to see Wang Yunda, the deputy superintendent of Jiaohe Mu, standing up with an extremely ugly face, his lips trembling and pointing at a subordinate who came in to report the news at some point:

"You NND, can you do something? How to do it! I have few livestock, and the thirstier I get, the more salt I eat! Hey! It seems that my deputy prisoner is also ......" Wang Yunda looked at Gao Jun's side, stopped talking, looked at the submissive subordinate in front of him, he was really angry, and slapped him with a wave of his hand and said, "Still here, get out!" ”

Then, he also hurriedly put on his coat and was about to go out, Gao Jun asked loudly, "Lord Wang, what are you doing when you go out to wear your coat?" The sun out there is poisonous—"

Wang Yunda snorted heavily in his nose, and hurried away without answering. Feng Zheng was already at the same table as Wang Yunda, and at this time, he came over with a smile and whispered, "Lord Gao, Lord Wang's men have reported that something has happened to Jiaohe Ranch!" I don't know who poisoned the forage, but fifteen horses have died, and fifty others are not good! ”

“…… You go, get two wolf dogs, one for the gate...... At noon, the horses stopped for a while, only picked three horses and fed them, and if they were okay, they were all fed in the evening! ”

After listening to Master Gao's words, Feng Zheng also realized the seriousness of the matter and went out quickly.

"Brother, depending on your reaction, I believe it, and the battle against the Hu people is not a fluke...... But don't you arrange for more people? ”

Gao Jun raised his glass, "Big brother, Officer Feng heard more than just things, he must have heard my attitude and methods towards this matter...... He'll do it well. ”

Xue Li gave him a thumbs up, touched the cup with him, and then drank it all, "Brother, why did you have good subordinates and good things?" Treasure knife, BMW ...... Younger siblings...... Your horse is sweaty, you know? ”

Gao Jun shook his head, "I haven't seen it shed a drop of blood and sweat once, the last time I fought so hard with Hu Ren, it didn't sweat a little, but it was quite human." If you really want to say that it is a bloody horse, big brother, I will give it to you to comfort your love for horses. ”

"Am I mistaken?" Xue Li shook his head and took another drink.

Five days later, the barrel in which Xue Lila had pulled water was healed, and it took up the entire leaf of the ox cart, which was twice as large as the one he had in his original cart. The wheels were also reinforced, half a catty of sesame oil was poured into the axle, and a selected strong yak was put in the wheel, and Xue Li waved goodbye to everyone who saw them off.

Gao Jun said emotionally, "When the eldest brother comes back, he must pass by Liu Zhongmu." Xue Li agreed, and went to Xizhou with Luo Dao, and Luo Dao brought a handwritten letter from Lord Gao to Lord Hucao Sun Xuan, believing that Brother Xue would not encounter a little trouble.

Two villagers with stiff accents went to the construction site of their new house and asked for work. Wan Shiju saw that the two were in good health, so he immediately agreed to come down and let them go to the construction site to transport bricks. At present, there is a shortage of such people on the construction site, and in a few days, the first batch of new homes requested by the tall adults will have to be handed over.

Lord Liu's enthusiasm is like a volcano buried deep in the ground, as long as he is given a vent, his enthusiasm will melt everything. In the evening, when the guests dispersed, Liu Wu's hand gently stroked the scar on Liu Caixia's delicate belly, making it look like a small flower blooming there.

Gao Jun was busy in the ranch all day, and he was relieved to check that there was nothing unusual about the horses in the stables.

This is all thanks to Liu Mucheng, who developed a set of different breeding methods, so that the overall condition of the horses in Liuzhong is getting better day by day. For example, one: clean spring materials, stable cool stack temperature. The horses were given clean spring water and fine fodder. The newly built stables are cooler in summer and warmer in winter; Another: Feet and land, neck to neck. It's about letting the horses chase and run on a regular basis, making each other feel close to each other, and letting them grow up in a free and easy environment.

The two gates were also tied to tall wolf dogs, and the sergeant guarding the door was also specially told by Feng Zheng that no one was allowed to enter. After seeing all this, seeing that it was late, Gao Jun lowered his head and walked home, he did not ride a horse.

Halfway through, a black shadow jumped out and stabbed Gao Jun's neck, Gao Jun shrank his neck, and the second knife slashed at his shoulder. Gao Jun dodged the second knife and slashed at the man's wrist with one palm, and the knife fell.

Gao Jun made this person's surprise attack break out in a cold sweat, and he didn't dare to be careless at all, so he condensed his spirit and pressed hard, so that the other party didn't have the kung fu to pick up the knife. A few rounds of kicking the man in the ass, a woman screamed "oops", kicked a few steps forward, jumped with the momentum, and disappeared into the bushes by the roadside.

Gao Jun picked up a scimitar from the ground and thought thoughtfully.
