069: Horse
Gu Changsheng looked at it carefully, and now he couldn't help but sigh in his heart.
Let's say it's a weird world that doesn't exist in history...... There are some strange things about it, which are the same as Gu Changsheng's memory.
It's like ......
In some subtle process, there was a shift in ancient societies.
Thinking of this, Gu Changsheng's expression couldn't help but move slightly. He grabbed the fleeting aura, and couldn't help but repeat it softly.
"A ...... that goes wrong and changes a certain course in history"
"Ancient societies?"
This thought came to mind, but he couldn't wait for him to pursue it carefully. Gu Changsheng heard Yan Ping's voice, which was coming from behind him.
"Brother Gu, I've been waiting for a long time. Let's go!"
Gathering his thoughts, Gu Changsheng turned his head to look, but his eyes couldn't help but widen.
I saw that Yan Ping came out of the fork in the road at this time, and that place should be the location of the back kitchen of the restaurant...... And now, he is leading two brown horses in his hands!
"The west of the city is not close to this side, and even if I wait for enough energy, it will be around dark when I get there. Brother Gu, these two horses were personally fed by my third uncle, although they are not as good as traveling thousands of miles a day, but they have a good footpath, and they are the most suitable for this kind of short round-trip journey."
Yan Ping held two leather reins in his hands, as thick as three fingers. The long rope had been circumvented several times, and was now hanging on either side of the horse's head, and from a distance it looked like two long strips of leather helmets.
"Brother Gu, come, take the reins away, let's lean to the West Gate first."
Yan Ping split the reins in his hand into two, pulled out one hand, and handed it to Gu Changsheng. It's just that the latter is now embarrassed, and he has been stunned for a while, but he can't hold back half a word.
I'll drop a turtle turtle......
Horseback riding?
I, Gu Changsheng, have lived for more than 20 years in my last life, a person from Jiangnan, and the biggest brute knows a big boar that is more than half a person tall!
Now you're going to let me ride this tall horse? Isn't this asking for his Gu Changsheng's life......
If you really want to say it, Gu Changsheng is a little self-aware at this time - there is a way among the six arts of gentlemen in ancient times, and the 'shooting' among them contains the skillful intention of bows and horses.
This is enough to show the importance of learning to ride a horse.
Gu Changsheng didn't think about 'grinding the gun in battle', but this idea was quickly pushed back by him.
After all, the horse is a living creature, not an oil cart.
The latter distinguishes the accelerator and brake, as long as there is no restriction of traffic rules, anyone can quickly get started and drive a 'rampage' momentum.
Horses are different, many skills, as well as the precautions for coexistence with livestock, Gu Changsheng can be said to know nothing.
Under such conditions, let him go horseback, then Gu Changsheng still shook his head faster......
Seeing that Gu Changsheng had that embarrassed look on his face, Yan Ping was naturally not a slow person to react. He reacted immediately, and his face was a little more abruptly realized.
"Brother Gu has never ridden a horse? Hehe, that's out of the way. These horses have been tamed and gentle in the early years, and they don't have to toss around at all when they sit on their backs."
There is a way to be gracious, but it is difficult to refuse.
Seeing that Yan Ping said so politely, Gu Changsheng couldn't shirk left and right, and finally had to bite the bullet and take the reins.
The horse stepped forward, his eyes swept wide. Glancing at the tall livestock, Gu Changsheng couldn't help but exclaim—this horse is indeed beautiful.
The long reddish-brown hair on the body and the strong muscle lines are even more distinct. There was a sound of kicking and stomping, the sound of iron horseshoe and nailed hoof prints, striking on the stone floor.
Now leaning in front of this horse, Gu Changsheng felt like he was leaning on the side of a supercar.
It has to be the kind with a large displacement!
Thinking about it this way, it is indeed very angry
……
No wonder any brand of car can be called BMW.
This horse is indeed windy!
"Brother Gu, you go first, I'll help you palm it in the back. If there is an accident, I can handle it easily."
Yan Ping spoke, and Gu Changsheng nodded in agreement. He grabbed the reins in his hand and walked towards the avenue. But before he could take two steps, the horse could no longer be dragged away.
"咴咴~」
I saw that the animal shook its head, grinned, and subconsciously wrestled with Gu Changsheng. The good thing is that he is now a monk, so he will not be dragged and staggered.
Yan *** behind him should be in time, he raised his hand into a palm and directly slapped it on the horse's hind legs.
"Okay, you're an animal, and you're going to cheat?!"
The horse grinned, raised its legs, and subconsciously raised its hooves. Yan Ping seemed to have long been accustomed to this reaction, and he looked sideways and avoided it, scolding and slapping again.
One person and one horse made a fuss for a moment, and then it was stopped. This also made Gu Changsheng, who was on the side, look worried.
You think this thing can really be ridden?
The two of them walked on the street, because of the regulations and the rules. Cattle and horses were not allowed to run around in the city, so they had to be led by people before they could get on the road.
This also has a bit of a 'traffic control' connotation.
However, in fact, even in today's feudal social background, some small rules and information also have a bit of a 'modern' prototype.
For example, the separation of humans and animals - now Gu Changsheng and Yan Ping can't cross the bridge when they pass through the long bridge because they are leading the horses.
Yes.
This long bridge is actually layered!
From a distance, it can be seen that the bridge is divided into two layers. The wooden structure is supported by stacked beams, and finally a pedestrian walkway is raised more than three meters high.
And in the slightly lower position, Gu Changsheng needed to lead the horse, make a half-circle, and rush to the entrance of the lower floor.
The animal road is two meters high, and it looks narrow and one-way.
Now, at first glance, two horses walking side by side can fill the road.
To its left is the main body of the bridge, which is sealed and airtight. On the right side, a small fence more than half a meter high has been piled up, which is supposed to be used to signal the restriction and then block one or two.
Through this almost meter-long deep passageway, Gu Changsheng could catch a glimpse of the scene outside the long bridge.
Below is a turbulent river, and the rolling yellow water flows from west to east, towards the mouth of the sea. In the distance of the bridge, there are low bungalows, built side by side, looking old and honest.
Dongcheng is not a simple urban area, in fact, because of the seaside, many blocks are separated by a slight distance, and it is necessary to use bridges to construct a path for traffic.
In order to rush to the west entrance of Dongcheng, Gu Changsheng and his party needed to cross the bridge to find the gate.
It's a long time, but it's just a slight distraction.
Gu Changsheng shook the reins, and the big horse behind him sniffled, stepped on his hooves, and followed closely with kicks and taps.
When you enter the aisle, a fishy, smelly, and strange smell comes to your nose. Gu Changsheng subconsciously swept around, and then saw those wet silhouettes in the aisle.
After all, this animal is no better than a man.
If you want to pee, who will greet you?
It seems that this kind of animal road, if you don't clean it for a few days, the smell can stun a delicate girl.
Thanks to the farmer who has done farm work and entered the 'hole', Gu Changsheng can now be expressionless and heartless.
One path goes straight aisle, and then turns around seven corners and eight alleys. Under Yan Ping's guidance, Gu Changsheng finally turned to the exit side.
The west gate is no better than the north gate of the east city, and the city wall here is a little lower, and the pedestrians are sparse...... Gu Changsheng couldn't even look at the small stall vendors who came and went.
"Brother Gu, this side of the West Exit was originally a wasteland. Just in the early years of the new dynasty
It was completed, and Orange Island was built on a large scale, and then it was incorporated into the new land from Dongcheng."
"So compared to some old streets and alleys, it is naturally a little less pyrotechnic."
With Yan Ping's explanation, Gu Changsheng couldn't help but nod slightly.
Under the rule of Zhenwu, the Hongli calendar was thirteen years.
All dynasties and dynasties have had a similar saying of 'new people and new atmosphere'. There will be a change of generation, and there will also be various policy changes, and Gu Changsheng is not too sensitive to these things.
Now that it has been mentioned, it should be a little more insightful.
After registering with the city guard and confirming the marks on the horses, the two men were able to leave the city, which is said to be the kind of interrogation that anyone who wanted to take their cattle out of the city.
"That must be because of the fear that the cattle and horses will be stolen and taken away, after all, this kind of livestock is not cheap to raise, let alone specially cultivated."
Yan Ping smiled and put away the small sign in his pocket, and was now explaining to Gu Changsheng.
Just now, he issued the tavern sign, and let the city guard compare it with the fire mark on the horse's body, and then he was released.
Out of the road, see the light of day again. Gu Changsheng turned his head again now, but there was a sigh on his face.
It's finally out......
"Brother Gu thinks it's troublesome?"
Yan Ping stepped forward slowly, holding the reins in his hand, with a smile on his face.
"To tell you the truth, before I entered the city, I really didn't expect that there would be so much exquisiteness."
Gu Changsheng smiled shyly, but what he said was also from his heart. After all, he didn't know much about entering the city this time, but he passed through these rules and regulations.
The rules of Vientiane Building.
Rules in the DC Zone.
The attention to the horizontal and vertical lines, and the distinct estrangement drawn out, made Gu Changsheng, who had modern memories, feel a little headache.
A kind of information that is not overflowing with words, but conveys in subtleties, is what makes Gu Changsheng feel the most emotion now.
That subtle sense of exclusivity.
It takes adaptation, it takes learning, and at the same time, it takes patience and lowering its profile...... There is no doubt that if ordinary people enter this eastern city, they want to make a career.
It must be difficult to make a start without a few years of accumulation.
Recalling the various regional divisions in modern society, as well as the subtle arguments on the Internet, Gu Changsheng couldn't help but chuckle.
No matter where it is, the nature is still the same......
Speaking of this, Gu Changsheng couldn't help but think of those two stunned people.
He Gu Changsheng could already feel obvious physical discomfort, not to mention a serious farmer background?
The two stunned people who came into the city together......
I hope I don't get into trouble, and when I'm done, I'll find a way to go back early.
After sighing, Gu Changsheng and Yan Ping summed it up, and quickly calculated the distance and direction.
