Chapter 11: A one-man horse team
Is the tragedy over?
Just getting started......
Li Zhen drove away in a frenzy. Liu Quan stuck his head out of the window again and looked back; At the exit of Yanziji, the big boss commanded the horse thieves to remove all the things that stood in the way, revealing a gap.
Chase again.
From afar, I could vaguely hear the big boss shouting with real fire: "I said, no one is allowed to live!" ”
Twenty horsemen, chasing from hundreds of meters away.
Liu Quan retracted his head expressionlessly, and said calmly: "According to the mathematics I learned before, it can be calculated that under the same conditions, the two horses will race, and the weight-bearing horse will definitely not be able to outrun the weight-bearing horse." That is, our carriage, will be caught up by them. ”
Li Zhen also said calmly: "This common sense does not require mathematical calculations. Catching up? ”
"Hmm."
Li Zhen was silent for a while: "Let's split up, I'll jump out of the car and enter the mountain from here on foot." You are on the horse, and I will help you untie the reins. The carriage is gone, you can ride and run. ”
"......" both were silent.
After a while, Liu Quan took off his personal backpack and took out a black thing from it, and laughed a little nervously.
Li Zhen untied the reins to help Liu Quan prepare, and turned back: "What is this?" ”
Liu Quan smiled proudly: "Have you ever heard of bombs?" These are new weapons developed by Imperial College, and my dad got a few from abroad. I stole one from his cabinet last month and kept it close to me, so I had nothing to do and took it out to study. Do you think my dad is stupid? Such a dangerous thing, he hid in the closet. ”
"You say you're not stupid, such a dangerous thing, you hide it on your body."
"Hahaha."
Liu Quan laughed wildly, laughed, and forcibly tied his personal backpack to Li Zhen with tears in his eyes: "There are 10,000 coins in it, and my father will use it for me to catch the exam." ”
Li Zhen's whole body trembled, and tears flowed out like a river: "We can actually run away." ”
"But according to one of the probabilities you mentioned, the chance of both of them running away is less than 50 percent, and the chance of just one person escaping is greater than 80 percent."
After Liu Quan finished speaking, he jumped out of the carriage without warning.
Li Zhen's eyes were cracked, and he hurriedly reined in his horse, stood on the platform and leaned out and shouted: "Come over to Lao Tzu." I'll change it with you! ”
Liu Quan looked at Li Zhen calmly, and said in a very soft voice: "You are better than me, stronger than me." Fight for some anger and test his mother Imperial College. ”
Li Zhen was furious: "Who is so rare that you say good things to Lao Tzu." With that, he jumped out of the carriage and chased after Liu Quan, trying to catch him back.
Liu Quan couldn't help but be stunned when he saw Li Zhen chasing after him, and ran in the direction of Yanziji with the bomb. While getting rid of Li Zhen, he shouted: "You can do it yourself, I have made up my mind, get out of your senses, get out of the exam!" Do you want both of them to die here? ”
Li Zhen was stupid, watching Liu Quan run in the opposite direction regardless of his body, and the whole person was stupid.
After running for dozens of meters, Liu Quan stopped again, looked at Li Zhen deeply and said:
"You remember, you owe Lao Tzu 10,000 yuan......"
"And my unfinished dreams......"
“……”
'Drive! ’
As soon as the horse was in the dust, the carriage remained in place, and one man and one horse galloped wildly.
Li Zhen looked back at Yan Ziji with red eyes, and looked at the back of the young man who rushed towards the horse thief.
Liu Quan also looked back, and the two teenagers looked at each other.
Li Zhen roared with all the strength of his body:
"If one day my official lord is added, I will level the entire Swallow Rock!"
"If one day I fall into power and sweep away all the horse thieves in this world."
"If that day really exists, I will definitely carry your dreams."
"If that day can't come, I will come to Yanziji to accompany you to Jiuquan!"
“……”
His eyes were red and tears were rolling down. Turn your head and look in the direction of the green Jiahe County in front of you - 'driving'
Liu Quan turned his head to look at Li Zhenyuan, revealing a relieved smile.
"Hahaha, that boy said he was going to level Yanziji."
The horse thief sneered at Li Zhen's roar in front of him.
The big boss sneered, looked at Liu Quan, who was standing in the middle of the road with a swagger, and sneered: "There is still one who takes the initiative to send him to death?" ”
When the iron horse approached, Liu Quan laughed, pulled the bomb and rushed into the group of horse thieves.
'Bang'
The fire filled the sky, and the earth shook the mountains.
In the midst of the flying flesh, more than a dozen people were killed on the spot.
People die, horses are frightened.
The horse thieves who were chasing from behind watched the living climb out of the flames, and watched the living horses scatter uncontrollably.
I'm already scared stupid......
————
Across the road, looking at the city gate of Jiahe County, looking at the endless flow of people coming in and out.
A flash of hatred flashed in Li Zhen's eyes, and he muttered: "Officials and bandits? ”
Drive the horse around the road.
Don't go into town.
Li Zhen didn't know which way Huangpu County was going, he only knew which direction. He rode a horse all the way to the mountain road, detoured Jiahe County, and headed towards Huangpu County.
A lonely man and a horse, absolutely dusty in the yellow sand.
But he is not lonely, he is alone, carrying the dreams of more than a dozen people.
The sky is the quilt, and the earth is the bed.
Along the way, I tried not to attract attention, but I just carried Liu Quan's backpack and hurried quickly. When you are hungry, you can eat a bite of dry bread, and when you are thirsty, you will drink a sip of warm water covered by your body.
It's close to Huangpu County.
Along the way, Li Zhen also saw more and more convoys from other regions rushing to take the exam.
There is a mighty convoy from Huzhou County, with more than 100 candidates and as many as 700 people accompanying the exam.
Li Zhen stood on the sandy ground and led the horse, watching the constant sound of laughter and slapstick in the team, looking around, he was the only one in the sky and on the ground. The eyes are inexplicable.
How magnificent the horse teams of other counties are.
"Hey."
In the horse team, someone shouted at Li Zhen.
Li Zhen looked, but heard an old man with a map in his hand say, "Child, you are from Huangpu County, right?" ”
"Yes."
"Haha, so do we. We are from Huzhou County to Huangpu County to catch the exam, see you are traveling alone, if you don't mind, come with us. ”
Li Zhen smiled and shook his head: "No need." ”
"It's okay, don't be shy."
The old man seemed to be in a good mood, and jumped out of the car with a watermelon in his hand: "Come, eat some watermelon." Hahaha, what are you doing in Huangpu County? Visiting relatives? The road is unfamiliar. ”
Li Zhen didn't pick up the watermelon, and said with a smile: "I'll go to catch the exam." ”
"You're also a candidate?"
"I'm a candidate from Hangcheng County!"
Li Zhenlang said.
The old man was stunned, and everyone in the horse team in Huzhou County was also stunned.
Immediately, bursts of laughter erupted.
"Hahaha, I'm laughing to death."
"Hangcheng County is going to take the exam alone?"
"Is it just a candidate? Not even a horse team. ”
"I heard that Hangcheng County has not been able to enter a university for 20 years, and our Huzhou County must produce one every five years."
"No wonder there are no college students in Hangcheng County, look, how shabby, just one person and one horse?"
“……”
The old man couldn't help but laugh, and smiled kindly: "Since that's the case, then come with us." Support each other, if you have academic problems that you don't understand, you can also consult with our candidates and students in Huzhou County. ”
Li Zhen smiled, stepped on the stirrup and got on the horse, raised the reins and swept away.
The old man watched Li Zhen leave and frowned: "It's really rude." ”
Looking back, on the horse team in Huzhou County, many people pointed at themselves.
Li Zhen muttered: "I am the horse team alone!" ”
“……”
Several days of sandstorming.
"Here we are, this giant city ......"
Separated by a hundred meters, looking at the city like a dormant beast, watching a team of horses go in and out, it is so lively.
Looking at a plaque on the towering city gate, with the word 'Huangpu' written on it, I knew that this was the ancient giant city that had been established in Southeast Prefecture for thousands of years.
Li Zhen led the horse with heavy steps and walked in step by step. Huangpu County did not say that he had dismounted and entered the city, so everyone felt very strange when they saw the young man leading the horse and walking very solemnly inside.
But this is Li Zhen's respect for this giant city.
It carries the dreams of so many people.
At this time, the sunset.
At sunset, the silhouette of a man and a horse is pulled by the elder.
"Five coins a shovel. It must be bought, and there must be a shovel to clean up horse manure when leading the horse into the city. Our Huangpu County is not a place that any hillbilly can enter. ”
"Huangpu County is not allowed to cause trouble, but the government is very strict, friend, do you need a copy of Huangpu County's 'rules and regulations'?"
"Our Huangpu Hotel has a very good service attitude, complete facilities, and a champion building specially prepared for candidates. 500 dollars a night ......"
In the constant repetition of the words of the guards, the vendors, the crooks.
Li Zhen entered the city in the hustle and bustle.
