Chapter 15, the king of horses who stands out from the crowd
A lot of things in the rivers and lakes are actually quite cliché.
But clichés are clichés because these things happen all the time. There are exaggerated or deliberately dramatic elements in the stories that the bards talk about, but many of them actually happen.
For example, row seats, fighting for face, and so on.
The panda rested for a while, and then went out to the stable to visit the green dragon.
His dwelling does not contain a stable, which is a separate building outside the adventurer's dwelling.
The stable was empty, with a lot of horses and a lot of squires to take care of them. Horses are very delicate animals and can easily get sick if they are not carefully cared for. Therefore, the more high-end stables often take care of a few horses by one person, or even only one horse per person.
The stables are huge, but as soon as you enter the door, you can see the green dragon. It is much taller than the average horse, and has a sense of standing out from the crowd. In the words of Xing Ye, it is like a firefly in the night sky, how conspicuous it looks.
The panda walked over and found a young knight squire standing a short distance from the green dragon, looking at it curiously.
"What's wrong with my horse?" he asked.
The knight squire, probably not expecting him to appear, was startled, and then smiled a little awkwardly.
"Your horse is so handsome!" he said.
The panda looked at the green dragon, wearing the horse armor made by the leather armor master, it did look majestic and very handsome.
"You have such a good eye. ”
"That's right, I've been taking care of the war horses here for several years. "But this is the first time I've seen a horse as handsome as yours!"
The panda nodded, he also felt that the horse that was more handsome than the green dragon was probably not easy to see.
If nothing else, the block is here.
Of course, war horses also pay attention to proportionality and appropriateness, and it is not that the bigger the body, the better. But on the premise of proper proportion, of course, the bigger the horse, the more powerful and domineering it is, and the more handsome it is.
Qinglong's figure is very well-proportioned, and there is no bloated or obese feeling at all, it is like an ordinary good horse enlarged according to proportions. If you use people as an example, it is like a big basketball player who is two meters five tall, but does not have any bulky or tall and thin feeling, has a well-proportioned body, good facial features, and flexible movements.
Such a person appears on the basketball court, even if he doesn't do anything, standing there is already very domineering. In the face of such an opponent, the vast majority of players will feel powerless from the bottom of their hearts - just like when the ancestor of the panda participated in the national martial arts examination, he was beaten out of the field by a northern man who was more than a head taller than him;
This knight squire is not very old, estimated to be around twenty years old. This age is actually quite normal for a knight squire - to take care of the war horse, it is almost the top in the knight squire. Unless you can make a contribution and become an official knight, you may only be at this level for the rest of your life.
In a special parlance, this is called "Hu Cong".
Hu Servant is the highest position of knight squire, and their ability is often no worse than that of ordinary knights, but the difference is only that they are not good at birth and have no meritorious service, so they cannot be turned positive.
If you don't get a formal knighthood, you'll always be a servant, and you'll be a servant all your life.
According to this knight's squire, he had been taking care of the war horses for several years, in other words, he became a servant at the age of fifteen or sixteen.
It is rare for young people to have such skills.
Just like the people who dare to observe the green dragon at close range, there are not many at all.
The green dragon is a magical beast, and it is a magical beast that is absolutely likely to eat people. It doesn't have a muzzle, and if you want to, at this distance, it can really bite in an instant. Not to mention being a servant, even if it is a formal knight, if it suddenly bursts out at such a distance, it is likely to be bitten off by a click.
Of course, Qinglong doesn't have the habit of biting other people's heads off. Even when attacking, it tends to knock the opponent down with its body, then stomp it to death, and then slowly eat it.
During this time, when it hunted, it mostly did this.
If it is qualified to use the trick of "opening its mouth and biting its head", it must be strong enough. At least at the level of this knightly squire, it is certainly not enough.
But of course, the panda would not explain these things, he just helped Qinglong remove the horse armor, then put it away, brought a bucket of water, and carefully brushed it with a horse brush.
This is a horse's favorite pastime, and the Green Dragon is no exception. For it, being washed like this is probably equivalent to a human taking a bath and receiving a massage.
The green dragon was very large, and after some washing, it was almost lunchtime.
The knightly squires who had left earlier came with a few people and brought fresh fodder.
The feed of war horses is completely different from that of ordinary pack horses, and they eat less grass and more grain. This is, of course, so that they have enough stamina to be able to gallop when necessary.
The food of the green dragon is different from that of ordinary war horses, in addition to ears of wheat, forage and fried beans, there is also fresh animal meat.
The panda looked at the bright red meat and casually asked, "What kind of meat is this?"
"Pork. The knight's squire replied, and then asked with some concern, "Why, is it taboo in eating meat?"
"No, at least I didn't. Panda shook his head, "I'm just curious." ”
Qinglong is not picky about meat, it likes to eat meat, as long as it is meat, any meat is good, and it is not particular at all.
In animal meat, wolf meat is definitely inferior, the meat is coarse, and the taste is not good. But it still eats with relish, and never picky.
And the pork brought by the knight's squire, it also ate to its satisfaction.
Watching it eat slowly, the panda couldn't help but smile.
"You're really comfortable, it's probably contentment. ”
Qinglong squinted at him, and spewed a very "sneering" sound through his nose.
"Okay, you eat slowly, it's time for me to eat. The panda said goodbye to him, and before leaving, he said, "Don't bite!" If anyone provokes you, you can kick him, but don't bite. If you bite it, you'll be in trouble. ”
Qinglong impatiently gave him a nasal sound, apparently, it felt that the panda was a bit long-winded.
The panda smiled, shook his head, and turned to leave.
He is still very relieved of Qinglong, the king of this green tooth horse is not only powerful, but also very smart. It's not easy to find trouble with it.
It may fight with others, or it may cause some trouble, but at the very least, there is no need to worry about it losing.
Panda is a person who has some shortcomings, of course he is reasonable, but the premise of strong reason is that his relatives and friends have not suffered.
Otherwise, the reason is not so easy to tell.
As for himself, he doesn't care about "suffering" and the like. Ordinary names or honors, he doesn't really care much.
It's like ...... When someone provokes him......
