Chapter 9: The Edge of War (5)

Christine gave Gu Shiyu a horse, tall throughout, covered with tough and strong muscles under his dark and shiny skin. The most exciting thing about Gu Shiyu www.biquge.info pen "Fun" Pavilion is the face shape of the horse, the forehead is broad, the expression is rich, the eyes are big and bright, it looks a little naΓ―ve, but it looks very intelligent, polite, and ...... Hey, there's a royal look.

Gu Shiyu didn't know how to ride a horse, especially in the face of such a noble temperament, he couldn't bear to ride it, for fear that it would be desecrated.

It's as if you're facing Eldred.

Her Royal Highness Princess Catherine's temperament and bloodline are higher than those of Eldred, how dare you kid?

For this problem, Gu Shiyu has been entangled for a long time. Maybe I wanted to go to Catherine, out of a natural sense of closeness, I felt that it should be like this, and it was not a violent thing, so I didn't hesitate at all. I don't dare to go to Eldrid, maybe I'm afraid of being unfaithful to Catherine, right?

Christine stroked the horse's long mane, reluctantly took the reins, walked the horse slowly and paced a few laps, and sighed: "Erathia's war horses are the best in the world, proud, brave, loyal, and understanding. Compared to them, the horses in the Lost Lands really couldn't think of any other use than to pull carts. ”

Gu Shiyu also couldn't put it down and stroked the horse, and couldn't help but say: "Hasn't anyone in the Lost Land thought about how to breed and breed new varieties?"

"Erathia's horses have magic in their blood. Once diluted, it becomes an ordinary colt. ”

For the horses, Gu Shiyu didn't dare to comment on them, otherwise it would be purely ugly. But he knew that the Tibetan mastiff was difficult for the mainland to breed a truly pure-blooded, fierce and loyal Tibetan mastiff. He asked, "What shall I call him?"

"You just call it a!"

"Lao Ke, it should be a stallion!" Gu Shiyu couldn't help but laugh. Although he doesn't have the talent of Bole, he still recognizes such a big thing under the horse's crotch.

Hart walked up with a smile and saddled the as he said, "Father's favorite horse, he will give it a feminine name, so that he will have a sense of conquest when he rides." ”

Gu Shiyu laughed. Lao Ke, why do you think about being a woman anytime and anywhere?

"The Lost Lands is a broken place, and cavalry will never be cultivated. When it comes to cavalry, the number one is Erathia. ”

"Old Ke, I don't quite understand. "With Christine's talent, he should be able to train a lot of cavalry, not a hundred or so in the village.

"Not everyone in this world can get Tinder, Tinder will choose its own potential owner. In the same way, it is not that anyone who takes a sword and rides on a horse becomes a cavalryman. The conditions for becoming a cavalryman are, firstly, a unique horse, secondly, the person needs to have potential, and secondly, it needs to go through several years of arduous training and survival tests. There were more than 1,000 men in the redwood forest, but only a tenth of them were suitable for cavalry. ”

Gu Shiyu seemed to have some understanding, at least he knew that not everyone could be a cavalryman, and he also knew why the combat effectiveness of cavalry was so strong.

Tarys led his pony with the dragon-patterned sword given to him by Gu Shiyu hanging from his waist, and stood by looking at his father with a blank eye.

Gu Shiyu touched Taris's head. Does this little kid want to go with him? It's hard to make such a request.

Christine nodded and said, "Then you can take him with you, when I was his age, I had already hunted several wolves, and I should let him go out to practice." ”

Taris jumped for joy and hurriedly stepped onto the pony's back.

Christine shook his head and said, "Tarys, you can't keep up with the troops on a pony like this, so let's ride with Hart!"

Gu Shiyu climbed onto the horse's back and shook the reins, but the fierce woman stood still motionless. Christine couldn't help but scold: "If you are my person, then you are only worthy of joining my swordsman army, and if you want to join the cavalry, there is no door!"

"I'll tell you the truth, this is my first time riding a horse. Gu Shiyu's face flushed.

Taris told Gu Shiyu how to control the horses how to stand, slow down, fast step, turn in circles, backwards, turn, run, etc., like a few treasures. But there was too much knowledge at once, Gu Shiyu only listened to how to let the horse run, but the horse galloped and almost knocked him off the horse, where can he control it?

Gu Shiyu was very panicked, and the scene in front of him flew backwards, such a scene could only be seen when he was sprinting for 100 meters!

Behind him, Taris's mother rushed up, snorting and tearing, grabbing Christine's ears and crying: "Christine, your son is only eight years old, do you want him to die outside?"

Christine struggled, "You know a! He's a man, do you want him to hide in the arms of old ladies every day?"

Although Gu Shiyu can't look back, the scene behind it can be imagined. The question is how can you control the horse?

Fortunately, Hart and the others came running quickly, and the woman had a leader to lead the way, and galloped with the horses.

After a few hours, the line came to a halt. The did not stop under Gu Shiyu's control, but stopped with the team herself.

Gu Shiyu finally climbed down from the horse, touched the cheek of the fierce woman and said, "You bad boy, why don't you understand what I mean?"

The woman was very angry, and she snorted a few times when she sprayed the valley. Gu Shiyu was very surprised, could it be that it could understand its own mind?

Taris stepped forward and said to Gu Shiyu: "Big brother, you can't treat him as a horse, but as a part of your body, so that it will follow your wishes." ”

Oh my God, Tarys, you have such knowledge at such a young age, and it seems that you will also be a great cavalry commander in the future.

Gu Shiyu learned from everyone's relaxation horse, led it to drink water, and watched it eat aquatic plants. Tharis stepped forward with a brush and said, "Brother, you have to comb its hair and cultivate your relationship with it." ”

This Gu Shiyu knows, he once washed the hair of Her Royal Highness Princess Catherine, and he knows that he has to comb it smoothly, not the other way around. When everyone was eating Chinese food to replenish their strength, Gu Shiyu was still muttering to the. The also enjoyed herself, rubbing Gu Shiyu's body from time to time, expressing her satisfied emotions.

Gu Shiyu grinned happily: I can clean up even a like Catherine, it seems that you are much gentler than her.

A few days later, the group arrived at the Sacred Wood Forest. Although they encountered some thieves and werewolves along the way, where were these people's opponents?

Murak did not go to the entrance of the village to greet him in person, as Gu Shiyu imagined. When Gu Shiyu saw him, he was standing blankly under the largest tree in the Divine Wood Forest, watching the leaves fall one by one above his head.

Murak seemed to know that Gu Shiyu was standing behind him, shook his head and said, "War is inevitable! Every leaf that falls from the Divine Tree means that a demon has been added from the Hellfire. ”

Gu Shiyu stepped forward and said, "Murak, I came this time to ask for your help. The portal to the Lost Lands opens, and it will once again be a battlefield. I'm building a castle on a lookout outside of Baulston to protect the people of the Lost Lands, and I hope you'll help me. ”

Murak shook his head and said, "Gu Shiyu, I won't go to work for Lady Grey again." ”

"You're not working for her, you're helping me build a shelter for the people of the Lost Lands. ”

"My people here also need protection. The mission of the Reyes family is to protect this sacred forest. ”

Gu Shiyu didn't expect Murak to suddenly become like this: "But didn't you also serve as the sheriff of Baulston Town?"

"Yes, in pursuit of personal honor, I have broken the sacred oath I made under the sacred tree of the sacred tree. I've been wandering under the trees these days and have figured out a lot of things. I did so many things against my will in Baulston, and finally realized that this was the place I should defend to the death. If the Sacred Tree is destroyed, the power of the demons will become stronger and stronger. ”

Gu Shiyu looked at the towering tree in front of him, and really couldn't understand what it needed to protect. Murakra raised the hand of the rain and placed it on the trunk of the tree.

Gu Shiyu closed his eyes in pain like an electric shock, trembling all over.

"Do you see anything?"

Murak's whispered words, but like a call from Henggu, pulled Gu Shiyu back to reality from the illusion.

Gu Shiyu said in a cold sweat: "I...... I was in a sea of blood, littered with the corpses of warriors...... The earth beneath your feet is burning, and the big tree is ...... Murak, you, will you be able to hold it?"

Mulak shook his head and said, "The destruction of this tree, as if the portal would open sooner or later, is already an inevitable result. More than a thousand swordsmen of the Reyes family are ready to fight for the battle that must be lost. Even death is a very glorious thing!"

"It is indeed very honorable to fight for a battle that must be lost. But don't you think it's more worthwhile to fight for victory? Wouldn't you want to lead your people to the final dawn of victory?"

"Of course I hope to see the light of day. But dying in battle under the sacred tree is the fate of the Reyes family. ”

Gu Shiyu's head was several times larger. Is the honor of the family more precious than his own life?" He looked at Hart on the side, who knew that Hart also nodded with a serious expression.

It's over, these people are all the same stubborn temper as Yoland. Gu Shiyu sighed, patted Murak's shoulder, and silently got on the horse and left.

The farther north you go, the colder it gets, and the snow is everywhere along the way. It's still summer, how can it be so cold? Everyone took out their warm clothes from their packages, wrapped them tightly around their bodies, and braved the cold wind and snow.

A few days later, in the midst of the snowstorm, a lighthouse on a hill in the distance could be seen. Hart shouted in delight, "Here we are!"

Everyone rode their horses and galloped, and in the distance, they could hear the melodious bells of Hook Bay. At the gates of Hook Bay, the guards shouted with bows and arrows, "Who are you?"

Gu Shiyu took out the hero badge and shouted towards the gate: "My name is Gu Shiyu, I am from the Hero Guild, and I came to Hook Bay to kill the ghost on the order of the mentor." ”

"Isn't there already a person from the Heroes Guild?"

"I know, he's my brother-in-law, called Adela. ”

The man on the door was very dissatisfied, and said, "Isn't there anyone in your Hero Guild? Why do you always send some nobodies to send them to death?"

Gu Shiyu is not satisfied now, the famous Gu Shiyu in Baulston Town, do these people have no eyes, and they don't even know their names?

"Wait, I'm very famous, haven't you even heard of it? Princess brand soap, you should have heard of it, it's made by my company." ”

The man nodded, and shouted to the door, "Open the door!" It seems that the Hero Guild is really empty, there is a little kid in front, the injury has not healed, and he is still lame, and now he has sent a person who makes soap to ......."

Gu Shiyu was very angry! The famous dragon slayer warrior in Baulston Town was actually regarded by them as making soap......

Fortunately, Adela is not dead, only lame, and she can deal with Catherine.

A group of people pass through the gate. Hart couldn't help but ask, "What did you just ring the bell for? Is the enemy coming?"

"No, we captured two witches and were about to burn them on the docks. ”

Ah, witches, it can't be McLind, they've been caught, have they, what have they done? Didn't they read in the Thieves' Guild Library, and how did they come to this far north?

Could it be ...... Could it be that Catherine and Adridrid were captured by them as witches?

Gu Shiyu's heart jumped, and he hurried to the dock with everyone, only to see that two large piles of firewood had been erected on the dock, and a person was holding a torch to light it.

Gu Shiyu saw one of them, as if he had been struck by lightning, and was so shocked that he couldn't speak!

Oh my...... That's not ......

Gu Shiyu's tears rushed out of his eyes, and he struggled to draw his sword, and howled sharply: "Let her go quickly! If anyone dares to light the fire, I swear to kill everyone in Hook Bay!!"
