Chapter Seventy-Six: Another Accident
This trip was a bit hard, but it was very rewarding. There were a dozen wild horses in total, and only after a cursory look showed only four foals, and when they were all counted, they found that there was still one under a mare.
It was a bonus.
There are also four mares and seven stallions, all of which are shiny and fat.
It's just a question of how to bring it back. Nine of them came, but sixteen horses came, and it was too difficult to bring them all back to carry out.
Liang Jian ordered them to tie up the unruly wild horses with ropes, rest here for the night, and set off tomorrow to return to the tribe.
A horse was slaughtered at night, which caused the horses to be restless, but fortunately, the rope was strong enough and the tie was strong, so that the horse did not break free.
Qin Yue had the weeds in his mouth, lying on the grass and looking at the stars, thinking about how to transport the wild horses back in his head, and vetoed several ideas one after another, a little upset.
Liang Jian cut a piece of cooked meat and handed it over, pulled away the weed she was holding with one hand, and said with a smile: "What do you look like?"
"With the earth as the bed and the sky as the cover, after a long time like this, it is inevitable that there will be a little more casualness, and I have almost forgotten what I used to be. Qin Yue turned his thoughts, took the fragrant barbecue, tore off the slices of meat and stuffed them into his mouth.
Liang Jian sat on the ground, staring at her clear eyes, recalling her previous appearance, but it was a little blurry in her memory, but her current appearance was deeply imprinted in her mind.
He smiled silently, and looked up at the vast starry sky, only to feel that the previous twenty years or so had been like a world away, and he didn't know if the blue planet was in the endless universe.
In an instant, there were blanks, regrets, and all kinds of thoughts came to his heart, making his always cold and resolute face, and a trace of loneliness flashed.
Qin Yue choked on a mouthful of barbecue in his throat, hurriedly drank a sip of water, and saw Liang Jian's distracted appearance looking up at the starry sky, and secretly said that he must have aroused his nostalgia.
She swallowed hard, stretched out her hand and shook it in front of his eyes, "Don't think about it, you can naturally go back when it's time to go back, our parents will live well on earth, and they will definitely live well." ”
"It's not bad here, isn't it? at least live freely, and primitive people don't have so many twists and turns. If you are good to them, they will be loyal to you......"
She rarely said a few words to comfort him, and what she said was high-sounding and had some truth. Liang Jian smiled, "You didn't mention it yet." ”
"Don't talk about that, just think about how to get these dozen wild horses back!" she changed the subject seriously.
Liang Jian didn't expect to be able to capture so many before, thinking that it would be good to catch a few foals at most, but he didn't expect to capture a dozen of them this time, which gave him a big surprise.
He frowned, as if he had been asked, and then said, "I originally wanted to return to the tribe as soon as possible, but this trip was delayed for too long." But for now, we can only try to tame a few horses, and when the time comes, we will ride back to the tribe. ”
This can only be the case now, Qin Yue nodded, "What about the rest?"
"Meek stay, rebellious killing. Liang Jian said bluntly, with a hint of ruthlessness.
Qin Yue's gaze fell on the wild horses struggling and neighing in the distance, and he mourned for their cruel fate for a few seconds, and then he couldn't bear to look at it again.
Seeing her entangled expression, Liang Jian teased: "Are you reluctant?"
Qin Yue shook his head and sighed, "No, it's just that the horses are psychic, I don't know if they know their fate in the future." ”
"Only obedience can live, and if you are truly spiritual, you can behave meekly. One day is not enough to tame them, we need to stay here for a few days. ”
Liang Jian informed everyone of the decision, and although Dashan and A Yan were like arrows, they took into account the overall situation and naturally nodded in agreement.
After starving the wild horses for three days, the neighing of the wild horses gradually weakened, Liang Jian tried to feed the wild grass, and a few foals couldn't bear the hunger, so they ate it in a few clicks.
Adult horses have a fierce spirit, and they are fed to their mouths, but they still do not take a bite, which makes everyone frustrated.
After another three days, a small number of wild horses ate them, and some of them were no longer restless when they approached, but there were still a few stubborn ones, who seemed to prefer to starve to death rather than eat a mouthful of weeds.
At this time, it could not be delayed any longer, Liang Jian immediately made a decision and dragged away the wild horses to be slaughtered in the distance.
He put a leash on a few other horses, taught a few people how to get on them, and ran around the grassland before they could barely be tamed.
Early the next morning, a few people left the vast grassland where wild horses were bred on horseback, either on horseback or leading horses.
The horses galloping on the grassland, no matter how unruly they were before, were docile at the moment, but Qin Yue knew that this was temporary, and the slightest abnormal movement might make the horses restless.
It's not so easy to tame horses, and besides, they are violently tamed, but that's the way it can be for now.
A group of people walked back in a mighty way, all the way through the grasslands, mountains, forests.
Groping their way through the dark night, they faintly saw a few houses of the tribe in the distance, and everyone grinned with joy.
After a moment, the smile stiffened at the corners of his mouth, "Someone has broken into the tribe." ”
Liang Jian waved his hand to stop everyone, the bonfire in the open space of the tribe was several meters high, the fire was dazzling, and a few people could be vaguely seen walking.
Looking at the number of people, it is obvious that they are not from the tribe, but they don't know where Ah Meng, Ah Liang and Shu are.
Because he couldn't figure out their number and the purpose of coming to the tribe, Liang Jian led the people to quietly retreat into the forest, hiding their bodies from them from discovering.
"You stay here, Ah Yan, and come with me to find out what's going on. ”
Liang Jian took Ah Yanfu and lowered his body and went to the tribe.
......
"Haven't you found it yet?" shouted a big man at the campfire.
"No, there's no food here except for these weird things. Out of the mud hut came a strong man wrapped in animal skins, and bent down to reply respectfully.
The big man walked to one of the rooms indignantly, and his voice was as loud as a bell, "If you don't say anything more, I'll chop you into pieces, bake you and eat them." ”
The three people in the corner of the wall trembled, but they gritted their teeth and didn't say a word, it was Ah Meng, Ah Liang and Shu, the three people who stayed in the tribe.
It's just that their appearance is more miserable, and their bodies and faces are more or less red and swollen and bruised, and even the wounds are cracked and oozing blood.
The big man cursed them hatefully, and even walked over a few steps, raised his leg and kicked them a few times, causing them to cry out in pain.
Ah Liang looked resentful in his clear eyes, gritted his teeth, and stared at him.
"Do you still dare to look?" the big man noticed her, looked at her fiercely, and picked her up with his big hand, "I'll be the first to kill you." ”
Ah Liang struggled hard, trying to break free of his big palm, but the tree's body shook violently, shocked, "You let go of her." ”
The tree swayed and got up, grabbed the arm of the big man, but could not shake it in the slightest, was waved away with one hand, and fell to the ground.
He didn't care about the painful body, got up again, and chased the figure of the big man walking out, but was stopped by the strong man outside the door, he desperately wanted to chase out, but was beaten by the strong man again.
The mouth was unconsciously wailing in pain, but he couldn't grasp anything with his hand stretched out, and he fell into the air, and his eyes were extremely gray.
