Chapter 10 Buying a Horse
There was such a plot on the official road, the man walked slowly in front with two big burdens on his back, and the woman was sweating profusely and slowly chasing after her.
"Rest for a while, big brother, I really can't walk!" Xiao Ling asked for a break for the nth time.
"Didn't you just rest?" Feng Tian stopped and looked at Xiao Ling, who was tired and out of breath.
Xiao Ling suddenly sat on the ground and said trickfully, "Anyway, I'm tired, so I'm not leaving!" ”
They have been walking for several days, and it can be said that it is a piece of cake for Feng Tian to walk these roads, but for Xiao Ling, who is usually used to sitting in a car when he goes out, and walking is limited to shopping malls, he has reached the limit.
"If you hold on a little longer, we can rest in the town in front of us, shall we rest there?" Feng Tian squatted down and coaxed Xiao Ling.
Xiao Ling glanced at him and obviously didn't believe his words, "You have said this sentence more than ten times, let's change a fresh reason, anyway, I can't walk, or you carry me, otherwise I won't leave." ”
"You skinny girl!" FENG Tianpet. He stretched out his index finger and poked Xiao Ling's head.
Just when Xiao Ling thought he was going to compromise and stop to rest, Feng Tian suddenly half-squatted in front of her, "Come on!" Don't you want me to carry it? ”
Seeing this, Xiao Ling immediately climbed up Feng Tian's broad back excitedly, and when he saw Xiao Ling lying down, Feng Tian stood up and carried Xiao Ling on his back and began to move forward.
"Big brother's back is so comfortable! Haven't you carried a lot of girls! ”
I don't know why the thought that Feng Tian might have carried other girls on his back made his heart inexplicably sour, and even the tone of his speech was a little sour.
"I've only carried you on my back! Do you think any girl is as good as you! ”
Meng Tian's words were slightly favored. The reproach of drowning made Xiao Ling's heart inexplicably sweet, and his arm tightened around Feng Tian's neck even more.
At this time, a strange voice attracted Xiao Ling's attention, "What kind of sound is that?" ”
"The horse barked," Feng Tian stood up and looked around, pointing to the front and said, "It seems to have a pasture!" ”
Xiao Ling immediately stood up and stood on tiptoe to look ahead, there was indeed a ranch, and a shed had been erected outside the ranch, and there were several horses in it.
"Do you know how to ride a horse?" Xiao Ling suddenly asked Feng Tian.
"Yes!" Feng Tian didn't know what Xiao Ling wanted to do, so he answered honestly.
"Let's go, let's buy a horse." Xiao Ling didn't wait for Feng Tian to react, he suddenly jumped off his back, pulled him and ran forward.
Before the two of them came to the stable, they both looked at the horses seriously, Xiao Ling was an absolute layman who would only consider it visually, but considering that it was not him who was riding the horse, he democratically asked Feng Tian's opinion.
Feng Tian pointed to a horse and said, "This horse is good." ”
Xiao Ling followed the direction of his finger and saw that it was the clean and energetic horse he fancied, "You think it's good too, I like it too!" ”
Xiao Ling ran to the horse excitedly and was about to reach out to touch the horse, Feng Tian came over and moved Xiao Ling's head in one direction, pointed to a horse next to him and said, "I'm talking about it!" ”
Xiao Ling glanced at the dirty and thin horse, stretched out his finger and retracted it in disgust, "You're not mistaken, this horse is so ......"
Xiao Ling didn't know how to describe this horse anymore!
"Trust me, it's definitely a good horse."
"Do you want to buy a horse? Every horse we have here is a good horse, look at this horse......"
"Okay, okay, I know you're all good horses, let's talk about the price!" Although he dislikes this horse, after all, he knows that he is a layman, and Feng Tian must have a reason for what he said.
"This horse is better fifty taels of silver, this time it is forty, this horse is ......" The horse dealer introduced the price of the horse one by one.
"What about it?" Feng Tian suddenly pointed to the horse who was optimistic about it first and asked.
The horse dealer was stunned, no one cared about this horse, but he didn't expect the person in front of him to take a fancy to it, "If you want this horse, I'll give it to you for five taels." ”
Feng Tian just wanted to speak, Xiao Ling suddenly broke over and said, "Five taels, can you see for yourself that your horse is worth this price?" The thin ones don't pull a few, and the ones are dirty, I see a maximum of three taels. ”
Although Xiao Ling didn't know the specific concept of these taels, he liked to bargain and ran out at the right time.
The horse dealer thought for a while, no one asked about this horse for so long, and if he kept it and didn't eat, he would die sooner or later, and then he wouldn't be able to get anything, so he could earn as much as he could now!
"Okay, let's do three or two! Here it goes! ”
Feng Tian gave Xiao Ling a thumbs up and paid the horse dealer, who immediately brought the horse to them after receiving the money.
Feng Tian took out a few dozen taels of silver and gave it to the horse dealer, "Get me a bucket of clean water and a stone of good horse food." ”
The horse dealer saw Feng Tian's shot so broad-eyed, he thought that the two of them had no money to choose this inconspicuous horse, but he didn't understand why they would choose this horse.
The horse dealer took the money and immediately went to run errands, and in a short time he had a bucket of water and good horse rations fetched.
Xiao Ling didn't expect that the thin-looking horse would eat up the grain and grass piled up into a hill in a few clicks, and she drank a whole bucket of water.
Xiao Ling's widening eyes hadn't been withdrawn, and he saw that the well-fed and well-fed horses immediately roared and roared.
Seeing this, Feng Tian immediately protected Xiao Ling behind him, "Ling'er, this horse hasn't been tamed yet, you stand back, don't let her hurt you." ”
"Oh!" Xiao Ling retreated far away as he said.
Feng Tian stepped forward and grabbed the reins, the horse raised its hooves to attack him, Xiao Ling saw that his whole heart was pinched, and his palms were full of sweat, "Big brother, be careful." ”
Feng Tian was not afraid of the horse's flying hooves, quickly turned around and jumped on the horse's back to tighten the reins, the horse felt the pain, neighed wildly and began to gallop.
The pace was rapid and irregular, Xiao Ling was really worried that Feng Tian would be thrown to the ground by the horse, and he was very nervous. After a while, the horse took Feng Tian and ran towards the woods not far away like a gust of black wind.
Xiao Ling saw that Feng Tian was taken away by the horse and chased after a few steps before disappearing, she was very worried, afraid that something would happen to Feng Tian. But she couldn't catch up with the horse, and in frustration, she squatted helplessly on the ground and shed tears, "Big brother, you must not have anything to do!" ”
Suddenly, the sound of horses' hooves came from far and near, Xiao Ling immediately looked up and saw a man in brown clothes not far away riding on the back of a black horse running towards her, Xiao Ling immediately stood up and wiped the tears on his face.
A man and a horse had already come to Xiao Ling, and when he saw Xiao Ling with slightly red eyes, Feng Tian's heart couldn't help but hurt, and he smiled slightly and stretched out a hand to Xiao Ling.
Xiao Ling looked at the big palm in front of him, hesitated for a moment, and then put his little hand into the big palm without hesitation.
