ps: In the book "Soul Limit", I ask for various supports such as collections, recommendations, clicks, rewards, comments, etc.!
Liu Zongdao, who was riding a horse in front, subconsciously turned his head to look at the people around him, and the expression on his face was quite complicated.
The young knights behind him have now changed their previous spirit, and there are more or less traces of embarrassment on their bodies.
At the same time, the eyes that looked at someone also brought a look of fear.
"Don't worry, I really want to be bad for your Pegasus Ranch, and I won't wait until today."
"I'm just a chef, and I've heard that the owner of your farm is very good at eating, so I want to come and meet you."
"Don't always look like this, it's unpleasant to watch." Li Anran, who was lying on horseback, said after taking a sip of wine.
Although Liu Zongdao still has a lot of doubts in his heart, he has to admit that there is still some truth in his heart.
Don't say it, when you take the other party's roast whole sheep and cut the mutton, the superb martial arts and swordsmanship displayed are not something that your own team can compete with.
Not to mention that this so-called cook can actually spell and conjure a wild horse out of thin air.
In the face of this mysterious and unpredictable method, he knew that he couldn't change anything at all, so he had to be the "leading party" again.
In fact, I really don't blame Liu Zongdao for being so spineless, mainly because Pegasus Ranch knows a lot of people.
Even if you don't lead the way, someone can still find it, the difference is just sooner or later.
In addition, although Li Anran's martial arts are high, he is only one person after all.
There are many people and horses in the Pegasus Ranch, and there is a master here, so it may not be impossible to hold it when the time comes.
Regarding Liu Zongdao's careful thoughts, Li Anran was too lazy to guess.
Anyway, I didn't think that I really wanted to take down the Pegasus Ranch, and this misunderstanding could naturally be explained clearly at that time.
After a night's rest, the men and horses who had been on their way early in the morning finally arrived at their destination before lunch.
Pegasus Ranch is located in the southwest of Jingling County, where two tributaries of the Yangtze River, Zhangshui and Fushui, are bordered by a large triangular fertile plain.
Two rivers flowed through it. Irrigate the fertile fields on both sides of the river, and finally flow into the river.
The climate here is mild, the soil is fertile, and the crops are abundant, among which the fields where the Pegasus Ranch is located are the most abundant.
The terrain surrounded by mountains encloses more than ten miles of fertile fields, but there are only two gorges in the east and west for entry and exit.
From the soldier's point of view, the situation here is dangerous, and it has become a natural barrier for the pasture.
When Li Anran followed Liu Zongdao's men and horses through the mountain road. When you come to the mountain with a bird's-eye view of the pasture, you will see that the fields below the mountain are like blankets of different sizes, forming beautiful patterns, and you can't help but feel relaxed.
In the meadows full of pleasing colors, green, green and daisy, more than a dozen lakes of different sizes are dotted like mirrors.
The turquoise waters of the lake and the green pastures compete for beauty. Ambilight, full of life, so beautiful that the two of them took their breath away.
From any point of view, the end of the grassland is the undulating mountain peaks, stretching to the end.
In this fairyland-like paradise, there are all kinds of livestock - white sheep, yellow or gray cattle, horses of all colors. Each of them has a good recreation and rest, so that the whole farm and pasture add color.
In the northwest corner, there is a magnificent castle, backed by a steep cliff and facing a small river that winds like a belt, which makes people breathtaking.
At this time, everyone dismounted and walked, and Li Anran also followed the customs, and the surrounding scenery was pleasing to the eye. Even if you haven't seen the main owner, you already have the feeling that the trip is worth it.
In addition to the scenery, Li Anran also has sentry towers and bunkers built in various dangerous and critical areas.
At the exit of the gorge, there is a city tower, and a tunnel with a width of three zhang and a depth of five zhang is dug in front of the building.
The tunnel crosses the gorge and is covered with spikes underneath, which must be navigated by a suspension bridge. There is indeed a husband who is in charge, and it is difficult for ten thousand people to cross.
Walking here, Li Anran saw that Liu Zongdao and they were obviously a little more relaxed.
Although they were not as loud and laughing as before, they all got back on horseback. Walk the gravel road towards Pegasus Castle.
Li Anran, who didn't care about this kind of tentative behavior at all, let those young people disappear from sight.
Faced with such a result, Liu Zongdao and Old Man Xu both secretly breathed a sigh of relief.
But the two also know that now is not the time to completely relax.
And Li Anran continued to observe this magnificent castle at this time.
I saw different kinds of livestock separated by wooden fences, and the shepherds galloped back and forth between the wooden pens, shouting and shouting.
The peasants worked silently in the fields, and the ploughing oxen occasionally whispered and mingled with the neighing of the horses and the cries of the sheep.
What he saw and heard along the way made Li Anran have a better understanding of this seemingly competing Pegasus Ranch.
According to the introduction of Liu Zongdao, a competent "leading party", plus the memory of the Tang Dynasty Shuanglong.
Li Anran knew very well that Shang Xiong, the owner of Pegasus Ranch who built this castle in the first generation, was a military general at the end of the Jin Dynasty.
In order to avoid the disaster of war, Shang Xiong led his subordinates and his clansmen to the south, and found this hidden valley by coincidence, so he lived and worked here in peace and contentment, and established the Pegasus Ranch.
In the 160 years from the establishment of the ranch to the unification of the world by the Sui Dynasty, Pegasus Ranch experienced seven owners, all of whom were inherited by the Shang family and had supreme authority.
The others are Liang, Liu, Tao, Wu, Xu, Luo and other ethnic groups, after more than 100 years of reproduction, they did not stop moving out of the surrounding areas, forming nearby towns, to the two big cities of Yuan'an and Dangyang, more than half of their inhabitants are from Pegasus Ranch.
Pegasus Ranch is also the economic lifeline of this region, producing high-quality horses, famous all over the world, but because the owner pursues ancestral teachings, never participates in the affairs between the rivers and lakes and the court, the style is low-key, and he has always been a businessman, so Li Anran has not heard anyone mention it all the way.
The first generation of the owner, Shang Xiong, was born as a military general and knew the truth that the fist was near.
He encouraged his subordinates to study martial arts and promote martial arts.
It is because everyone in the ranch is brave and good at fighting, and they are afraid of bandits and robbers.
It has become a force that can ensure the safety of the region, and has won the respect of the residents of nearby towns.
When it came closer, Li Anran looked at it from the front and had to admit that it was indeed breathtaking to be able to build such a castle in this era.
The city wall is built according to the mountain, and it is built with a clamour, and it winds along the terrain, and the situation is precipitous.
The rock behind the city is exposed, and the cave is strong? Birds are hard to cross.
When Li Anran and the three of them finally crossed the river through the suspension bridge and entered the city, it was obvious that the bridge guards who should have received the news were all nervous.
But to Li Anran's surprise, Pegasus Ranch didn't do anything, but let himself enter the castle.
After entering the city, there is a wide ramp that extends upwards to the inner fort where the owner of the highest farm lives, and the houses on both sides are continuous, and they are connected to the ramp by branch roads, which is characteristic of a mountain town.
People and cars come and go on the road, just like a thriving big city, and children play in groups.
Even with Li Anran's experience, he can't help but be surprised.
After all, in this era, it is indeed amazing that one clan can do it with the strength of one family.
The buildings in the castle are not rough and rustic, and are built of stones, and the shape is magnificent. Along the way, the bell pavilion, the archway, the door is heavy, and the simple and simple Huazhong shows the heroic spirit of the city builder.
The inner fort is a large scale, the main building has five halls, and there is a side hall corridor. The large hut is in an orderly manner, decorated with garden flowers and trees, small bridges and waterfalls, elegant and pleasant.
After entering the inner fort, Old Man Xu first led the Saibei Liangma brought back this time to flash people, while Liu Zongdao accompanied someone to meet the owner in front.
After arriving at the reception hall, Liu Zongdao, who was afraid that someone would mess up, had to continue to accompany him.
And Li Anran enjoyed the tea soup, snacks and various melons and fruits sent by the people in the inner castle with peace of mind.
As for the reception hall as the center, those small movements hidden around are naturally clear at a glance under the scanning of divine thoughts.
Fortunately, Li Anran also knew that although he had no malicious intentions, he could be regarded as a villain for Pegasus Ranch.
It's a normal thing to make such an arrangement. If you don't do it, it will make Li Anran feel that this business girl paper is a bit wasted.
didn't let Li Anran wait for long, and not long after the two sat down, the main owner appeared.
I saw a beautiful black and beautiful show with thousands of manners pouring down on her knife-like fragrant shoulders like two small waterfalls, so beautiful that she could almost walk in with a beautiful woman in a strong suit comparable to that of the concubine.
From the other party's face, Li Anran couldn't see the slightest surprise and vigilance at his appearance. To be continued. , you are welcome to come to the starting point (.vote for recommendation, monthly pass,. For mobile phone users, please go to M to read; Updated first, full-text, !url.
