"You don't have to do that, do you?"

Although Han Yan also wanted to find a mount to travel, it seemed a little inappropriate to just agree anyway, so there was some hesitation in his words. Pen ~ fun ~ pavilion www.biquge.info

"Yes, yes! The child is not sensible, but we must pay for this mount! ”

Guan Hai's expression was evaluated, and he was not shaken by Han Yan's refusal at all, and spoke in a loud voice.

Listening to Guan Hai's insistence, Huang Zhong slowly approached Han Yan's side and said, "Childe...... Take it! ”

It's not that Huang Zhong saw what Han Yan was thinking, but according to the current situation, it was a good choice to accept Guan Hai's compensation. The grain sent out by Guan Hai and others, plus the original grain and grass that was replenished in Dongguan City, these add up to thousands of stones of grain and grass, and it is not easy to say whether the number of mounts on Huang Zhong's side can be pulled, and now that Han Yan has no mounts, it is really not true, but thinking about these people who still have mounts, they really can't pull out a horse.

"This ...... In that case, then I will take it. But now that the night is dark, will you go and lead your mount overnight, chief? ”

After a little hesitation, Han Yan opened his mouth and responded, after all, it is one thing to make a gesture, but if you do everything too much, it is not good to play with it, and Han Yan still understands this truth.

"It's getting late now, and the mount can't be pulled, so it's better to go to our horse farm with me early tomorrow morning, and then you can choose a mount yourself, what do you think?"

Raised his head and looked at the sky, it was already late at night, Guan Hai was in his heart, so he simply agreed on the time until tomorrow.

As for Han Yan's dead mount, it had already been given food to his soldiers a little later. However, Han Yan didn't eat a bite, because he was really a little unhappy in his heart. And Huang Zhong, Sun Guan and the others didn't move a piece of meat, after all, what people like them love most in their lives is nothing more than mounts, blades and other things, and now it is really a last resort to share the mounts, and it is still unrealistic to let them eat.

Waiting for the next day, Han Yan got up early in the morning and waited for Guan Hai's arrival early. Because after some time, Han Yan was ready to take his men out of camp and rush to Beihai. In any case, the grain and grass of more than 1,000 stones is still not enough for Han Yan to squander, and if he wants to relieve the current dilemma as soon as possible, Han Yan still needs to rush to Beihai as soon as possible.

Compared with Han Yan, who got up early, Guan Hai really didn't arrive early, and he rushed to Han Yan's camp when it was almost time to eat.

"General......

Arching his hand towards Han Yan, Guan Hai was a little embarrassed on his face, he thought he had gotten up early, and he had been waiting for him for a long time to see others like this.

Waving his hand slightly, Han Yan didn't want to be polite with Guan Hai anymore, now Han Yan really didn't have so much time to squander, slowly stood up, Han Yan said, "Don't waste time!" Hurry up and pick a mount, we're going to get on our way this morning! ”

"Huh? Is the general leaving? ”

Although he thought that Han Yan might come and go in a hurry, he didn't expect it to be so crisp, so Guan Hai subconsciously asked.

"We still have important things to do, it is inconvenient to stay longer, yesterday's night's rest is enough, and there is still a way to go, and it is safe to arrive early."

Taking a deep look at Guan Hai, Han Yan revealed his plan slightly.

It was impossible to explain to Guan Hai completely, and it was impossible for Han Yan to trust this stranger overnight, just after Guan Hai and the others left last night, Han Yan also specially asked Sun Guan and others to take people to check the grain and grass one by one, for fear that Guan Hai would do something inside. However, everything is false and true, and revealing a little bit is convenient for Han Yan to act, so I said something.

Now what Han Yan has to do is to follow Guan Hai to choose a mount.

The horse farm set up by Guan Hai is actually not far from the place where Han Yan camped, and he didn't even need to go into the woods, he could see it by walking along the woods to the southwest for a while, when he first arrived here yesterday, because of the location and the fact that it was late at that time, and Han Yan was looking for people's hearts, he didn't find Guan Hai's horse farm, and when he saw it today, he regretted it a little.

In Guan Hai's horse farm, there are not many horses, there are only six horses, and these six so-called 'horses' are still muddy, and Zhou's body is dirty, in the eyes of Huang Zhong and others, the frowns between the eyebrows are tighter than the other.

"Eh~~~ Guan Hai, this is your horse farm?"

Pointing to the 'horse farm' in front of him, Han Yan couldn't tell what it was like in his heart, he wanted to scold but he was not too embarrassed, but he was very depressed in his heart.

"Hmmm! This is our horse farm! Nodding heavily, Guan Hai could see the unconcealable loss in Han Yan's eyes, "We are not a regular army, and raising horses is to save some manpower for some heavy work, so we don't pay so much attention to raising horses...... Please also ask the general to lead a horse, and use it as a substitute. ”

"Alas! That's all there is to it! ”

Han Yan didn't say anything polite to Guan Hai anymore, after all, looking at the six horses in front of him, it was impossible for anyone to choose to say some polite words.

Walking slowly into the racecourse, Han Yan didn't pay attention to Huang Zhong and the others who couldn't stop shaking their heads behind him, and looked at the horse to himself.

Of the six, four are tan, one is grayish-white, and one appears to be black. He said 'it seems' because Han Yan could clearly see that the gray-white horse was white, but there was too much dust on his body.

And this black horse, at first glance does not look unusual, but at a second glance, you can see that its coat color seems to be a little purple. The most peculiar thing is that the horse's four hooves are all snow-white.

"This horse ......"

Pointing at the black horse, Han Yan turned his head to look at Guan Hai beside him.

Seeing the dark horse that Han Yan was referring to, Guan Hai's face showed a strange meaning, and after hesitation, he still spoke: "General, or ...... Would you like to change one? ”

"What? Didn't you say that you would pay for a horse? Why didn't you choose a horse and you didn't want to? What do you mean by that? ”

Originally, he was not in a good mood when he looked at these horses, but as soon as Guan Hai said this, Sun Guan immediately became unwilling, and stood up and shouted and asked.

"This ...... It's not that I don't want to, it's just that this horse is really ...... It's hard to say! ”

was scolded by Sun Guan, Guan Hai not only did not have a trace of annoyance, but the strange look on his face became even thicker.

"Huh? What's going on? Is there something wrong with this? ”

Looking at Guan Hai's face, Han Yan knew that the other party should not feel sorry for a horse, so it was this horse that had a problem.

"Hey! Since the general asked, then I said! With a light sigh, Guan Hai's frowning brows slowly loosened, "I think when this horse farm was first established, we only had five horses, and these five horses were all our ...... I rode it at some time, and this horse came recently, and I don't know which night it ran into the stable, it's really ...... It's weird! ”

Thinking about it slightly, Han Yan understood that what Guan Hai said was when the Yellow Turban thieves were rampant, but now Han Yan didn't have the time to pay attention to this, his eyebrows furrowed slightly, and he repeated Guan Hai's last word in his mouth, "Weird? ”

"Yes! Uncanny! Nodding heavily, Guan Hai continued: "Before, we used to prepare a cart of hay, and then put it into the horse farm at one time, and then these horses would graze together. But for some reason, after this horse came, whenever he had eaten grass, he waited until the other horses had finished eating, so that we now had to divide the hay. ”

"Huh? So...... This horse should be a rare steed, right? How is it weird? ”

Touching his chin, Han Yan really didn't hear what Guan Hai said was weird, really counting, how could this horse be a leader!

"This ......"

Seeing that Han Yan was even more interested after he finished speaking, Guan Hai was immediately speechless.

"General! That is true! The dog behind him saw Guan Hai stunned, hurriedly came up, and said nervously: "Although this horse looks like a head horse, it can't compare to other horses whether it is running or jumping, and it ...... And ......"

"And what?"

Seeing that the dog hesitated, Han Yan hurriedly asked.

The young man who was following the dog saw that the dog was stammering, and hurriedly added, "And other horses don't want to get close to it, so we think this horse should have horse plague!" ”

"Uh...... Anything else? ”

Han Yan looked at it and recognized that this was Xiaoyun, another teenager who was tied up yesterday, smacked his lips, and subconsciously asked.

"Also, this horse's temper is also quite strange, we had some people want to ride it before, but it either lies down on the ground, or it just jumps around and doesn't let us get close, it's very difficult!"

was questioned by Han Yan, Xiaoyun's face turned red, and he explained in a loud voice.

"Oh! So that's it! Nodding, Han Yan understood the general situation of the matter, waved his hand to the person behind him, and said, "Come and see, does anyone recognize this horse?" ”

Sun Guan stepped forward, looked at the black horse carefully, and then his face changed, "Childe!" Isn't this a snow hack? ”

"Kicking the snow black? The black horse under the crotch of Xichu Xiang Yu? ”

When Sun Guan said this, Han Yan's face also changed a little, black horse! It's a gasp!

"The whole body is black, and the four hooves are snow-white, which is exactly what the legendary 'dark clouds and snow' look like!"

Looking at the dark horse carefully, the more Sun Guan looked at it, the more frightened he became, and then looked back at Han Yan, isn't this destined by God?

"Dark clouds treading snow? Interesting! ”

Repeating the words 'dark clouds stepping on snow', Han Yan's eyes suddenly lit up.

"That's not right! This is not a 'kicking the snow'! ”

Standing behind Han Yan, Huang Zhong suddenly spoke, shook his head vigorously twice, and said with a solemn expression.

"Huh? Hansheng? What do you think? ”

Hearing Huang Zhong behind him speak, Han Yan immediately turned around and opened his mouth to ask.

"Childe! I'm not sure yet, so why don't I get some water, and give the horse a wash, and then talk about it, what do you think? ”

Ignoring Sun Guan, whose face was a little embarrassed, Huang Zhong looked the dark horse up and down, his face full of solemnity.

"Go! Fetch some water to scrub this horse! ”

Hearing Huang Zhong's words, without waiting for Han Yan to speak, Guan Hai had already waved his hand to let Gouzi and the others go to fetch water.

In fact, the water source is not far from the horse farm, and there is a small stream flowing not far away, and the dog and others quickly brought water and skillfully brushed the black horse. And the dark horse did not mean to be impatient at all, but enjoyed the process very much.

After the black horse was brushed, the appearance it showed was really a surprise to everyone.

I saw that the original black horse was transformed into a purple horse at this time. The body was dark purple, the horsehair was black and slightly shiny, the hooves were snow-white, and the white hair on the shoulders was like a bright moon.

Seeing that the dark horse had changed, Sun Guan's face changed, from the embarrassment just now to embarrassment.

Now anyone can see that this horse is definitely not going to be a 'snow kicker'! Whose black horse is dark purple? The legendary black horses are all black, like black satin, and the four hooves are as white as snow, but the black horses do not have the white on their shoulders!

"This ...... Hansheng, do you know each other? ”

After carefully looking at the 'makeover' dark horse, Han Yan smacked his lips and turned his head sideways to look at Huang Zhong.

"Hmm~~~, Childe, do you remember that there is a volume of "Horse Watching Techniques" in your study?"

After a little hesitation, Huang Zhong did not answer Han Yan's question directly, but instead asked Han Yan a question that seemed to have nothing to do with the matter at this moment.

"In my study?" Glancing at Huang Zhong suspiciously, Han Yan frowned and thought carefully, and then, Han Yan's frowning eyebrows loosened, and he said thoughtfully, "Han Sheng, you mean that fragment?" ”

"Yes! It's that fragment! ”

Nodding, Huang Zhong affirmed Han Yan's answer.

"That's ......"

got Huang Zhong's affirmative answer, but Han Yan was silent.

Speaking of which, Han Yan's study is actually Han Shuo's study, and all the books in the study are actually collected by Han Shuo. In the study, in addition to most of the information such as fortune calculations, there are also subsets of scriptures and histories, and most of the rest are fragments.

When Han Yan was in Luoyang, he often looked for some fragments to read, because the records of many things in them were very interesting. However, this book "Horse Watching Techniques" is an exception.
