Chapter 989: The Man of the Prairie
"Huhuhu......"
The blizzard howled with the wind, and dense ice flakes blew on people's cheeks.
In previous winters, although the snow was thick, it was far less cold than this year.
In the heavy snow, I saw a group of horses in a circle, an adult and a child, like a father and son.
One was holding on to the reins of his horse, and the other was pushing hard behind.
It's just that the snow is getting heavier.
It's knee-deep, but there's still some way home.
"Rehman, leave that horse alone, go!"
Kurban looked back and saw his son, pulling a little mare who could no longer walk, crying out anxiously.
The snow was too sudden.
Just a day ago, a hailstorm suddenly fell, smashing the stable.
Frightened, the horses rushed out in a frenzy, and the father and son chased them for a day before they were able to chase them back.
It's just that it suddenly snows so heavily.
Kurban knew that if he couldn't get back before it got completely dark.
Father and son are probably going to die here.
It's just that I don't know why, these horses suddenly don't go.
Even as the father and son kept pulling, the horses were moving more and more slowly, and at this point they simply stopped here, motionless.
Kurban was already desperate in his heart, and he only wanted to bring the pregnant mare back.
"O great Allah, help us."
Kurban prayed silently in his heart, believing it or not, this was the last way he could think of it.
As if he hadn't heard his father's words, his son Rahman pulled the little wooden horse as tall as him hard, and his chubby little face turned red.
I tried all my strength to pull, but the little mare didn't move.
Just when tears flowed from Reheman's anxious eyes, a crisp inquiry suddenly sounded in his ears.
"It's so dark, is it called Xiao Hei?"
Reheman was stunned, the girl's voice was unfamiliar to him, but he was sure it was the best sound he had ever heard.
It's just that...... Reheman couldn't help but think of his grandfather telling him that there were many stories of demons and monsters on the grassland, and suddenly the fat on his little face trembled.
Reheman swallowed and spat and turned around carefully, the small sesame eyes couldn't help but stare at the girl in front of him.
It was definitely the prettiest little girl he had ever seen.
The jet-black hair, delicate facial features, and the appearance of the little jasper made Reheman's little heart thump and thump
When the little girl saw that Rahman was dumbfounded and did not speak, she ran up and stroked her hand on the little black horse.
It seems that he likes this little black horse very much.
"Reheman!"
Kurban squinted his eyes and called out to his son, but was surprised to find a group of people in the snow walking towards them.
"Anyone??"
Kurban was stunned, the grassland in winter is by no means a place that those travelers can enter at will.
Besides, at this time, with such a big snowstorm, how could anyone appear in the grassland.
Just when Kurban was stunned, he heard a man let out a hearty laugh: "Hahaha, I finally met a living person, I went, I knew that we would climb down by ourselves, that old guy is not reliable at all." β
Fat Pig and Wang Mazi stepped forward with steps.
The thin body is tightly dressed in a single coat.
Seeing Kurban in a daze, he immediately stepped forward and asked; "Brother, what is this place and how to get to the nearest city?"
"City?"
Kurban looked the fat pig up and down, and when he saw that the fat pig was actually wearing a thin dress, he was speechless in surprise.
Compared with the fat pig, Wang Mazi is even more excessive, he is actually shirtless, showing a body of fierce muscles.
"Aren't these guys afraid of freezing to death??"
Kurban subconsciously tightened his thick clothes, even if he wrapped himself in the same way as a dumpling, Kurban still felt cold.
I don't dare to imagine what kind of people it is.
Fortunately, at this time, Zhao Ke walked up, pushed away the fat pig and said, "We are lost, can you take us to find a safe place?" β
Compared with the fat pig, Zhao Ke is dressed very thinly, but it is not as exaggerated as the fat pig.
Besides, Zhao Ke's words were very polite, and he was finally able to bring Kurban back to his senses from his stunned state.
I looked at the figure behind me in the heavy snow.
Kurban hesitated for a moment and pointed to his horse: "My house is not far ahead, if you can help me pull the horse up and drive it back, I can help you." β
By this time, Kurban could no longer take care of so much, and he hoped that with the help of these people, he would be able to quickly get up these horses that refused to move.
Zhao Ke opened his mouth to reveal a mouthful of neat white teeth, and waved his hand behind him: "He is willing to help us, let's get on the horse first and follow him." β
Zhao Ke said that he didn't wait for Kurban's reaction and jumped on the horse.
Seeing this, Kurban's face changed, and he thought that he hadn't made it clear.
These horses won't go, and they won't go when you ride them.
Just as Kurban was about to open his mouth to explain.
The horses, which had refused to get up, got up from the snow with a sudden.
Zhao Ke rode over on a horse, stretched out his hand, and pulled Ji Wusui into his arms.
The big head carried Song Heng on his back and pulled a horse and rode up.
Luo Qing was placed on the back of a horse by Camille, and he rode a horse alone, not with Jiayu.
Song Heng and Luo Qing, both of them were in a state of coma at this time.
Zhao Ke didn't want to explain too much to the two, so when Ji Wusui lifted the time standstill, he simply knocked the two unconscious first.
When Zhao Ke and his party got on the horse, the other horses also stood up, and they didn't need to pull at all, holding Zhao Ke and his party forward.
If it weren't for Zhao Ke's urging.
I'm afraid that Kurban, father and son, will have to stand in the snow for a while before they can recover from their shock.
Although he did not know what was happening, Kurban burst into tears and cried out in his heart for Allah's blessing with joy.
Hurriedly pulled a horse, jumped on the horse with his son, and ran ahead to lead the way.
Kurban's home is not far away, but this is not far away, for Kurban, a man from the steppe.
Zhao Ke and the others rode for two hours before arriving at Kurban's horse farm.
Three yurts.
and a horse shed that has collapsed.
For Zhao Ke and his party, Kurban showed the enthusiasm of a steppe person.
In his heart, Zhao Ke and them are messengers sent by Allah.
Especially the woman in this casual dress, although it was cold, was the most beautiful woman Kurban had ever seen.
It's just that every time he glances at Kurban's heart, he feels a sense of humility and insignificance, so that he doesn't dare to look directly at this goddess-like woman.
If the fat pig knew Kurban's thoughts, he would definitely pat Kurban on the shoulder and tell him that there was no shame at all.
Not to mention Kurban, in their group, Zhao Ke is not afraid of Ji Wusui, and others, including Jiayu, have a great fear of Ji Wusui.
"Do you have to wear clothes like this?"
Ji Wusui is very unaccustomed to the sportswear on his body.
And this dress is a little oversized.
Compared with Camille's tall and plump figure, her clothes naturally don't fit well.
"When we get to the city, let's change into more suitable clothes when the time comes, let's just take a look at it first, after all, your clothes are too eye-catching."
Zhao Ke naturally held Ji Wusui in his arms.
The old man's affairs are considered to have come to an end, and after Zhao Ke's mind returned, he also found that Ji Wusui's body was abnormal and very weak.
Although he couldn't see what was going on, his keen observation and his usual strong demeanor were all too familiar.
So much so that although Ji Wusui concealed it, he was finally noticed by Zhao Ke.
However, Ji Wusui refused to say, and Zhao Ke didn't ask too much, in fact, he enjoyed the feeling that Ji Wusui could be cared for by himself.
Always protected by her, now it's your turn to take care of her.
finally let Zhao Ke show his side as a gentleman in front of Ji Wusui.
"Your two friends are still sleeping, I think they will wake up soon, let's eat first, thank you for your help, otherwise I must go crazy."
Kurban walked in with his wife, and in order to repay Zhao Ke for their help, Kurban specially slaughtered a sheep.
Made a pot of braised mutton.
The stewed mutton exudes a unique aroma, and the mutton here does not have any smell, but has a strong meat aroma.
There is no need for any seasoning, just some salt, which is enough to refine the umami of the mutton itself.
After one bite, the meat is fragrant, and even a woman like Ji Wusui, who doesn't eat fireworks in the world, has eaten a little.
Not to mention Datou and Wang Mazi, the two of them grabbed a large piece of mutton and couldn't eat it together.
In fact, Kurban did not think that the sudden non-departure of those horses was not because they were tired.
It was Jiayu's special aura that made these horses dare not move easily.
Of course, Zhao Ke will not say this point.
"Sister, there are a lot of Xiaobai outside, I want it too."
At this time, Jiayu and Reheman ran in from outside the tent, and after Reheman entered the tent, he took a careful look, and hid behind his father with a big head and a big head.
The hideous appearance of the big head is really a little too terrifying, especially eating meat with a crooked mouth, so that Reheman doesn't dare to look at it anymore.
could only secretly shift his gaze to Jiayu's body, and when he saw Jiayu, Reheman's little face couldn't help but feel a little hot, and he was embarrassed to cover his face and sit aside.
The appearance of Chun's heart secretly moving, naturally he couldn't hide Zhao Ke's eyes, but the love between children was not mixed with other thoughts.
It's just a matter of liking.
For the little whites in Jiayu's mouth, Camille naturally chose to ignore them.
gave Jiayu a bite of mutton, which made Jiayu eat with relish.
Seeing this, Reheman hurriedly straightened his chest and said, "How is it, is the mutton delicious?" β
"Lamb??"
Jiayu looked up at Rahman, confused at the meat in her hands.
"Yes, it's those little whites, my Ah Ta (father) specially selected a lamb, the meat is the most tender and the most delicious."
Reheman explained proudly.
When Jiayu thought of those cute lambs, her face suddenly fell, and her eyes were red, as if she was about to cry.
At this moment, Reheman suddenly panicked.
I heard Jiayu pout, and her voice choked: "Such a cute Xiaobai, if we eat it, will its mother be in a hurry?" β
Everyone was stunned, and even Zhao Ke couldn't help but look strange.
Fat Pig and Wang Mazi looked at the mutton in their hands, facing Jiayu's such a kind and naΓ―ve question.
They were all too embarrassed to continue their mouths.
At this time, Kurban couldn't help laughing: "No, its Ana(Mom) and Ata(Dad) have already been sent to the stove to roast, tomorrow we will eat roast whole sheep." β
