Su Jinyao turned her head to look at Gu Xuebin, and deliberately pouted: "You know that it is such a thorn, and you still choose such a horse for me, isn't it just because it is good-looking?" I think you want it to play (xìng) and fall me to death. ”

Blazing Horse Desert Cloud

Gu Xuebin shouted again and again: "This is wronging me." I think it's the most compatible with Jinyao, as long as you tame it, it will definitely follow you loyally for the rest of your life. And I believe, you will be able to tame it. ”

"You really have faith in me." Su Jinyao said, shook the reins again, shouted "Ride", and urged the horse to run faster.

Gu Xuebin suddenly said urgently: "Jin Yao, I was wrong, I shouldn't have chosen such a weird temper horse for you." Don't ride that fast, don't really fall. ”

Su Jinyao rushed forward and turned around and said, "Don't worry, it won't dare." I have already said to it, it is okay to lose your temper, but you have to be measured, if you really dare to fall on me, I will cut off its horse leg with a knife, so that it is worse than dead. ”

Gu Xuebin listened, rolled his eyes, and said, "Jin Yao, do you think it's a beast or a human?" Will it understand you? ”

Su Jinyao said: "Of course I can understand, otherwise it wouldn't have so many ghost ideas, and it would also (yù) catch the old and indulge, deceive people to ride up, and deliberately do the right thing with people." So, I'll say the ugly things in front of me, and if it really dares to lose its temper, I won't spare it. I want it to understand that the master's words cannot be violated in the slightest. ”

After Su Jinyao finished speaking, the white horse neighed, and took a big leap forward.

However, although Su Jinyao was shaken on the horse, her riding skills were very good and she was not thrown off.

Moreover, the white horse was just a vertical leap to stabilize the (shēn) shape, saying that it was losing its temper was more like testing Su Jinyao's riding skills.

Su Jinyao's hand holding the reins tightened, pulled her mouth hard, and shouted: "That's all, don't take it as an example." If you'd like to try my hand at riding, then we'll have a good run-in. ”

After that, Su Jinyao pulled the horse's head and made the horse turn suddenly. Then, running at high speed, the reins were lifted sharply, and the horse was guided to make another great vertical leap, which spanned a very long distance.

When the horse's hooves landed firmly on the ground, the horse neighed again, then shook its head twice, shook its snow-white mane from side to side, and then ran smoothly all the way forward.

These two movements not only require superb riding skills, but also need to have precise coordination with the horse.

Although Su Jinyao rode this horse for the first time, she had already figured out its habits and mastered its running skills, so she was able to complete such a difficult action.

Even Gu Xuebin couldn't help but gasp when he saw it. Chased after Su Jinyao (shēn) and said, "Jinyao, what are you doing here?" Stop playing, it's not a joke. ”

"I'm not joking. Che, you're right, it has identified me, and it will always be loyal to me. Su Jinyao patted the horse's neck, slowed the horse down, and said, "And you're right, I'm not very stable in my heart, and I can't get out of my anger a little bit." The events (qíng) these days are so unexpected that I can't control them, and I feel tired and powerless. You let me go out for a walk, so that I have the opportunity to tame such a fiery horse, and now my heart (qíng) is much more comfortable. ”

In other words, Gu Xuebin really understands Su Jinyao's thoughts. He was worried that after Su Jinyao separated, the concern in his heart would be deeper, but he was helpless, so he tried to give her a chance to vent.

And this horse, although it is strong, is also psychic (xìng) and knows how to measure. Otherwise, it must only kick and bite indiscriminately, and no one is allowed to approach, and it will not let people lead away safely.

Now, Su Jinyao and this white horse have some tacit understanding, and they are adapting to each other, and the situation is getting better and better.

And although the horse has (xìng) fierce, after all, there is still loyalty in the bones. The more spirited (xìng) a horse is, the more he understands that a good master can be met but not sought, so once he identifies his master, he will follow him for the rest of his life.

After riding for a while, Su Jinyao breathed a sigh of relief, and felt that the depression in her heart was also relieved.

Looking at the desert sun in front of her, Su Jinyao felt that her heart was full of spaciousness and relief.

"Che, we're all going to work hard." Su Jinyao pulled the horse back and said, "Let's go, let's go back to the camp, I should leave too." ”

"Jinyao, don't work too hard, just wait for me with peace of mind, it won't take long, I will definitely let you be my crown princess." After Gu Xuebin finished speaking, he took out his jade whistle and whistled, then threw the whistle to Su Jinyao, and said, "Jinyao, catch it." ”

Su Jinyao scooped it up casually, scooped the jade flute whistle in her hand, and asked, "What is this for?" Didn't you say you kept it? ”

Gu Xuebin said: "Take it." Remember the white eagle, right? I'll release it when I get back and give it to you for my correspondence. Otherwise, I'll be flustered without your news. ”

"Good. Then I'll take it. After Su Jinyao finished speaking, she put away the jade flute whistle. and Gu Xuebin rode back to the camp.

Back at the camp, Vice General Song had already pulled his war horse out, and it seemed that he was preparing to send Su Jinyao away.

General Tuoba Gao and Zhang Chengliang also stood aside, ready to see them off.

Su Jinyao jumped off the horse, led the horse to Zhang Chengliang, and said, "Uncle Zhang, thank you for your horse, it really suits my heart." Then he asked, "I don't know its name yet?" ”

Zhang Chengliang stretched out his hand and patted the horse's neck, and said with a smile: "If you come from it, I will call it Dabai, and it shouldn't be a very nice name." In the future, it will follow you, so you can get one for it yourself. ”

When Su Jinyao heard this, she smiled and said, "Then I'll call it ...... Ah Yue. I have a black wolf king named Ah Ye, it is white, and it is the brightest moon of the night. ”

Gu Xuebin also walked over, and after hearing this, he said: "I think the name Ah Yue is more suitable than giving it to Ah Ye's little daughter-in-law." You might as well call it a desert cloud, a white cloud in the desert. ”

"Well, whatever you like, it's your horse anyway." After Su Jinyao finished speaking, she patted the horse's neck and said, "You will be called Moyun in the future, he took it for you." ”

After a few words of gossip, Su Jinyao took out the prescription she had written before, handed it to Zhang Chengliang and said, "Uncle Zhang, this prescription was prescribed by me after I diagnosed my uncle's pulse. Able to help him with his conditioning (shēn) sons. Now I am not in a hurry to use it, and when I return to the capital, there are plenty of medicinal materials and I have a lot of free time, so I bother you to tell him to take medicine every (rì). The usage and dosage are clearly written above. ”

Zhang Chengliang took it and looked at it, and said: "Miss Liu has a heart, since General Tuoba came to the Mobei military camp, he has been working hard, and he personally trains the camp every morning and evening, and also goes to the front several times to explore the enemy (qíng) and survey the terrain. With this prescription, I will definitely advise him to take care of it. ”

This kind of terrain hides road bandits

After everything was explained clearly, Su Jinyao walked up to Tuoba Gao and said, "Uncle, Che, I'm leaving." "There are not many words, the words are concise and to the point, but they are full of separation (qíng).

Tuoba Gao nodded heavily, patted Gu Xuebin on the side of (shēn), and said, "Jin Yao girl, do you remember the note that your uncle wrote to you?" It still works, it still works. ”

Su Jinyao smiled, looked at Gu Xuebin, and nodded, "Okay, thank you, uncle." I have collected the arrears very well, and I will look for you to cash in them. ”

After speaking, Su Jinyao turned her head to the "killer man", clasped her fists with both hands, and said, "Vice General Song, I have taken the trouble to send you all the way, thank you first." ”

"No thanks, I'm a rough person, I can't take care of people, Miss Liu, you have to take care of yourself. But when I encounter bandits, I won't let them go. "Vice General Song is really a straightforward person, and he speaks so truthfully.

Su Jinyao said: "Don't worry, if I meet a bandit, I won't let it go." I also have some ability to protect myself and can take care of myself, so Vice General Song doesn't have to worry too much. ”

After that, Su Jinyao pulled the horse and jumped on the horse's back, turned the horse's head, and urged the horse to run out of the camp gate first.

Since you have already said goodbye, why give up? Anyway, they all have to go, and they can get together better, so they don't have to turn back one step at a time.

Vice General Song saw Su Jinyao riding away on horseback and shouted: "Good riding skills, let's race horses." Then he jumped on his horse and urged the horse to run.

It wasn't until he urged his horse to run to the camp gate that he remembered that he hadn't said goodbye to his commander yet. I had to pull the horse and pause, turn around and clench my fists, and said, "Don't worry, general, I will definitely send Miss Liu safely." ”

Tuoba Gao nodded and said loudly: "Then you can go back to the capital directly." We also did not (rì) set off to escort the prince (diàn) back to Beijing. ”

"Yes." Vice General Song agreed, immediately urged the horse to run away, and chased after Su Jinyao.

Seeing that the smoke and dust had settled all the way, and Su Jinyao's (shēn) shadow was no longer visible, Gu Xuebin came back to his senses slightly, turned his head to Tuoba Gao and asked, "Uncle, what did you just say to Jinyao?" Do you still owe her anything? ”

"No, I don't owe anything." Tuoba Gao laughed in his heart and wanted to say: I owe you a big living person.

Zhang Chengliang naturally didn't understand what they meant by the prince (diàn), but said, "General, should we also arrange the return trip?" ”

Tuoba Gao said: "It's to be arranged." We have to talk about those small tribes first, at least to ensure that they don't dare to violate the border within half a year, so that we can go back with peace of mind. ”

If you don't make a big move, I'm afraid that as soon as Tuoba Gao leaves, those small tribes will have to come over inch by inch.

When the time comes, I don't feel at ease, and there are so many criticisms, and I won't be able to explain to the emperor after returning to Beijing.

On the other side, Su Jinyao was escorted by Deputy General Song, and there were not many twists and turns along the way.

Even though Vice Admiral Song was wearing civilian clothes, he was tall and strong, and he even carried a full (shēn) evil spirit.

Even if such a person does not exert power, as long as he has a little knowledge, he will retreat. Because his bloody aura is not something that anyone else (shēn) has.

As for the wolf king Ah Ye, although Su Jinyao was summoned, she took it all the way back. But the further back you go, the more towns you pass by, and the aye tong people (xìng) are better off and can disguise themselves as a dog and follow Su Jinyao (shēn).

But Ah Ye's little daughter-in-law, the snow-white little she-wolf Ye (xìng) is untamable, and she hardly listens to Su Jinyao's dispatches, and she is reluctant to go near crowded places.

Therefore, Su Jinyao simply asked Ah Ye to take it back from the mountains and forests and wild roads, so she didn't have to follow them all the time.

A few days later, Su Jinyao and Adjutant Song were about to reach the boundary of Nanping Prefecture. Anji City is a small city in the interior of Nanpingzhou, which can be seen not far from home.

After a few months of walking, Su Jinyao suddenly felt that it was longer than the more than two years she had been away from home before.

That time, she followed Master Zhu Xinsuo to study medicine, and Master treated her like a granddaughter. The two of them were idle in the mountains and wilderness (rì), so they didn't feel how long time had passed, but they were separated from the master in a flash, and now I think about it very much.

But this time, since before entering Beijing, the Su family has been in trouble, even if follow-up arrangements have been made, Su Jinyao will inevitably have some worries.

What's more, on this trip to the capital, she has experienced too much, and her heart (qíng) is difficult to calm for a while. Now the desire to go home is getting stronger and stronger.

"Miss Liu, it seems that the junction of the two states in front of me is not very peaceful." Vice General Song said, put his hand on the pergola and looked ahead, and said, "Look at the mountain, gentle and steep, dense forests. Generally, such places are the easiest for green forest men to enter. ”

The green forest men mentioned by Adjutant Song actually refer to some road bandits who do not bully the common people, but only rob officials and businessmen.

This kind of road bandit calls himself a "thief", saying that he only does "business" to rob the rich and help the poor, but he is not very annoying.

However, a thief is a thief, and a bandit is a bandit, even though there are many filthy people in the government who are greedy for a lot of ill-gotten gains.

But after all, the official silver in the past also came from the blood and sweat of the common people. If they were robbed by these bandits, most of the officials did not dare to report it, lest they blame them, and they would turn around and collect a sum of money from the people to make up for the lost official silver.

In this way, the burden on the people is even greater, and it is said that these road bandits have also harmed the people.

And although Adjutant Song was full of (shēn) fierce and murderous power, it was all caused by charging into battle on the battlefield and bravely killing the enemy. So in his opinion, if a man has courage and kung fu, he should go into battle to kill the enemy, these road bandits call themselves chivalrous thieves, but they are not a man, and they are very disdainful.

Now that he is here, Adjutant Song doesn't want to cause trouble, but he is not afraid of it, so he just reminded Su Jinyao a little, and then walked forward with Su Jinyao.

Su Jinyao also paid attention to the mountains that were getting closer and closer on both sides, and found that it was indeed densely wooded, and if there were dozens of people in ambush in the woods, it would be really difficult to detect for a while.

At the foot of the mountain, it is a gentle slope, which is suitable for horses. But the higher you go, the more steep the terrain becomes, and it is difficult for outsiders to drive straight to the top of the mountain. Such a location is indeed a place that is easy to defend and difficult to attack, no wonder Adjutant Song said that there will be green forest men in this kind of place.

Vice General Song saw that Su Jinyao had slowed down and was still looking at the terrain here, so he smiled and said, "Miss Liu, don't worry, with me, it will be fine." ”

"Yes, then there will be Adjutant General Lao Song." Su Jinyao said, but her eyes inadvertently caught a little light.

Su Jinyao's mind moved, and she secretly glanced in that direction a few more times, and found that there were still a few cold rays flickering slightly in that direction.

Su Jinyao glanced at Vice General Song and snorted over there.

The bandit and Adjutant Song knew each other

Vice General Song looked in the direction that Su Jinyao was alluding to, and also saw a little light. The corners of his mouth twitched, and he said, "There are really people, that is the sunshine behind the knife face (shè)." ”

Su Jinyao chuckled and said, "Yes, with a big knife on your back, you don't hide it well, it makes people's eyes hurt, isn't it obvious that there are people over there?" ”

Vice General Song frowned and said, "Perhaps, this is not unintentionally exposed, but they have another purpose." ”

After a few more glances, Vice General Song grabbed the horse's head, arched his hand in that direction, and said, "Under Song Yiming, a person from the capital, I was entrusted to send this girl back to her hometown in Nanpingzhou." I also hope that all the heroes will raise their noble hands. ”

After that, Song Yiming tore off the money bag he tucked around his waist, weighed it with his hand, threw it on the ground casually, and said: "Song someone traveled all the way from Mobei to this place, there are a lot of times (rì), and there is not much left, so I can only ask the brothers to drink some wine." ”

Su Jinyao also pulled the horse to stop and followed Song Yiming. But she didn't speak, just silently looked at the few places where the cold light flickered.

It stands to reason that Song Yiming's words are atmospheric, and things are done beautifully. Not only did he take the initiative to leave the money to buy the road, but he also left all the money bags. If this group of people can really become a "green forest", at least they shouldn't be embarrassed anymore.

But after the words were finished, the money bag was thrown away, but there was still no movement of the other party.

Song Yiming said to Su Jinyao: "Miss Liu, let's go." If it's not right, you just break out, and I'll stay with them. ”

Su Jinyao let out an "um" and urged the horse to go ahead. At this time, there is no reason to shirk humility, not to mention that Song Yiming was originally going to send her back, and Su Jinyao said that it was not appropriate to stay and advance and retreat with him.

It's just that Su Jinyao urged Mo Yun to run forward, and after running a few steps, Mo Yun hissed and suddenly stopped.

Su Jinyao narrowed her eyes, feeling that Moyun was psychic (xìng), and she was very close to her these days, so she shouldn't be playing (xìng) again. When I looked ahead, I saw that the ground was also faintly revealing a metallic sheen.

Su Jinyao turned back to Song Yiming and said, "Uncle Song, I'm afraid we won't be able to leave." After speaking, Su Jinyao jumped off the horse and motioned to Mo Yun not to move, and she cautiously walked forward.

Just a little further forward where Moyun had stopped, several triplocks were buried in the floating earth. If Moyun had just moved straight forward and the tripping lock had tripped the horse's legs, Moyun might have fallen.

Then Su Jinyao saw a few long nails buried in the ground. The tip of the nail was exposed more than an inch and sharpened, but it was covered with floating soil and blades of grass for disguise.

Such traps are extremely vicious, and if the horse steps on a triplock, it will fall, and may even tear off the person on the horse's back. And whether it is a man or a horse, as long as they fall on those upside-down nails, even if they do not die, they must be full (shēn) piercing dozens of bloody holes.
