Chapter 243: War Horse Candle Dragon
Don't be angry, but mighty.
This is the feeling that Tang Xiaohao gave to everyone present before.
He didn't need to be angry, for what he had done had already frightened the Torth warriors and earned their respect from the bottom of his heart.
Tang Xiaohao and Bao Meng walked halfway, and met Chierda, who was riding a horse with clothes, and after changing clothes on the spot, they walked towards the position of the carriage.
Coming to the carriage, Tang Xiaohao stood still and saluted, "Lord Wang, I passed the second trial."
After Ji Chengying nodded, Tang Xiaohao looked at Antai with a smile: "Lord Antai, when will the third scene start?"
At this time, Ji Chengying was laughing in his heart, but he couldn't laugh out, he could only maintain his majesty on the surface.
An Tai was just about to say something, Tang Xiaohao turned to look at Mu Qier and the others who were still kneeling there in the distance: "Why are they still kneeling? Let them get up, my lord."
Antai immediately said to the heralds, "Let them all get up and prepare for the next trial."
Bao Meng immediately said, "The next trial is going to be held soon?"
Antai was also very embarrassed: "Princess, you should also know that the trial of refining Boda cannot be stopped, and it must be completed within twelve hours."
Since Antai said so, Ji Chengying, who originally wanted to delay the time so that Tang Xiaohao could rest, had to swallow back the words that came to his mouth.
After Mu Qier returned to the carriage, he knelt down towards Tang Xiaohao again, but was grabbed by Tang Xiaohao.
Tang Xiaohao said, "General, that is a trial, and the reason why the soldiers of the wolf rider lose their minds is because they are unwilling to let an outsider defeat them."
After that, Tang Xiaohao looked at An Tai again: "My lord, this is the problem, the Rouyuan people do not regard the Huayuan people as compatriots, and the Huayuan people also regard the Rouyuan people as barbarians, which is also the heart disease of the emperor today."
Ji Chengying nodded subconsciously, although except for Tang Xiaohao, no one knew his true identity.
Antai looked at Tang Xiaohao and didn't say anything, but she understood what Tang Xiaohao wanted to express.
Tang Xiaohao continued: "Whether it is the Huayuan people, the Rouyuan people, or even the other Yuanyuan, they are all Jiuyuan people. Don't forget, we are all from Kunlun and have a common name since ancient times, called Kunlun. The struggle between the primordial beings, in the final analysis, is cannibalism, and it has been like this for thousands of years, why? Just because there is no unity in the world, one day, the nine plains will be unified, the cars will be on the same track, the books will be the same, the lines will be the same, and the world will be safe." ap.
After Tang Xiaohao finished speaking, he returned to his usual hippie smile: "My lord, you guys are ready for the next trial, I'll take a breath and eat and drink."
After speaking, Tang Xiaohao turned around and left, walking straight towards the black-spotted white horse.
Su Mu stayed where he was, looking at Tang Xiaohao, while Ji Chengying said, "Lord Antai, it's almost noon, why don't you have lunch first?"
After Tang Xiaohao finished speaking, the reason why he immediately diverted the topic was to not embarrass Antai.
Similarly, Ji Chengying is unlikely to continue to ask Antai about Antai's attitude towards the unification of the world, because it will only make the already embarrassing scene more difficult to end.
What Tang Xiaohao said was just to show his position, at least in his eyes, Huayuan and Rouyuan people are of the same ancestry and are equal.
Antai nodded slightly and said, "Lord Wang, please."
Saying that, Antai got out of the carriage first and helped Ji Chengying down with his own hands, which can be regarded as using this behavior to express his agreement with what Tang Xiaohao said before.
In fact, whether it is the Huayuan Imperial Court or the Tors Department, as long as they have experienced a cruel war, they all know in their hearts that war is cruel, and people with a normal mind will not advocate war, put on armor and hold weapons and step on a war horse, also in order to stop the war with war.
——
When Tang Xiaohao walked up to the black spotted white horse, the black spot was lame and immediately stepped forward and rubbed Tang Xiaohao with his head.
Bao Meng stepped forward and touched the horse's back and said, "It knows everything."
Tang Xiaohao squatted down and looked at the extra bone on the horse's leg: "How can this be? If I'm at home in Shendu City, I can still flip through the books
, there may be records in the previous medical books, and we can come up with a solution."
Bao Meng asked, "What if it can't be solved? What are you going to do after you save it?"
When Tang Xiaohao got up, he saw the black spotted white horse looking straight at him, expecting his answer.
Tang Xiaohao said, "Why don't I leave it to you?"
As soon as he finished speaking, the black spotted white horse closed his eyes, visibly sad.
Tang Xiaohao immediately said: "I'm joking, I'm definitely going to take you, I'll take you wherever I go in the future, and when I take you back to Huayuan, you won't be lonely, I still have jelly beans and sugar meows, yes, I have to give you a new name, I know you definitely don't like them calling you black spots or ominous before, right?"
The black spotted white horse raised its head and neighed, looking very excited.
Bao Meng was surprised, "How do you know it hates that name?"
Tang Xiaohao said: "The dark spots on its body are its shortcomings, who wants to use their own shortcomings as a name, you don't want to, right?"
Bao Meng took the opportunity to ask, "Then what are my shortcomings?"
Tang Xiaohao glanced at Bao Meng: "You are too tall, if you wear riding boots, you will be taller than me."
Bao Meng couldn't cry and laughed: "The women of Rouyuan are so tall, I am short, you look at Lord Antai, I am a head taller than you."
Tang Xiaohao stroked the horse's mane, pondered for a while, and said, "In the future, let's call it Xiaobai, follow my surname, and call it Tang Xiaobai."
Bao Meng smiled when he heard this: "Do you want to be so casual, your cat is called Jelly Bean, Jelly Bean's wife is called Sugar Meow, and even the credit spirit is called Tang Rong Rong, and now it is named Tang Xiaobai."
Tang Xiaohao said: "It was originally snow-white, white and glowing, as for the black spot, it is nothing at all, probably it was born with a special mark given to it by God."
Bao Meng shook his head and said, "It's a war horse, with such a cute name, it has no momentum, let's start a new one, okay?"
Tang Xiaohao pondered for a while and said, "Just call it the Candle Dragon."
Bao Meng asked, "Why is it called that?"
Tang Xiaohao said: "The day is not good, and the candle dragon is not shining. In the mythology of the Nine Plains, the candle dragon is the god of the extremely cold land in the north, regarded as day, blind as night, blowing as winter, exhaling as summer, and breathing as wind."
Bao Meng nodded and said, "Open your eyes for day, close your eyes for night, blow for winter, exhale for summer, and breathe into the wind."
The black spotted white horse immediately nodded and neighed, apparently liking the name.
Tang Xiaohao said seriously: "So, in the future, you will be called Tang Candlelong!"
Bao Meng almost kicked over: "Do you have to add a Tang character in front of someone's name?"
The candle dragon also poked his head and looked at Tang Xiaohao in a daze.
Tang Xiaohao hurriedly said, "Just kidding, it's called Candle Dragon."
Bao Meng looked at the wolf riders who were scrubbing in the distance at this time, "There are still three trials."
Tang Xiaohao asked in a low voice, "What are the other three games?" Can you tell me that I can be prepared, mentally prepared, and at least let me figure out how to deal with it, right?"
Bao Meng said, "I don't know very well, I can't remember."
At this moment, Childa came with a large round table full of food: "Princess, colt."
After putting down the round table, Calla said, "I know that you two must want to eat alone, so I will bring it out for you."
Gilda was about to leave when she was stopped by Bao Meng.
Bao Meng said, "General, there are still three trials behind Lian Boda."
Gilda naturally knew what Bao Meng meant, although Tang Xiaohao didn't ask, but Bao Meng was worried, so she took the initiative to ask.
Gerda glanced at the big tent, then at the wolf riders in the distance, and sat down cross-legged: "Boda is the warrior of the king, and this title has only been given since the king of the Sarena tribe unified the Joohara, but the trials originally existed in the various tribes of the Johora in order to worship the gods in a special way, and then Sarina selected five of these trials, which became the current Lianboda."
Tang Xiaohao nodded
"In other words, in the past, if you wanted to obtain the title of Boda in the Tors Ministry, you had to pass these five trials?"
Gilda nodded and said, "Yes, but because it is too harsh, there are very few people who can obtain the title before, so this way of obtaining the title is banned, but Lian Boda still retains it, as a way for those who have made great achievements and committed serious crimes to obtain pardon, and the slaves can also beg to participate in Lian Boda if they want to regain their freedom."
Bao Meng said, "I heard the nurse say that in fact, slaves have no chance."
Gilda sighed, "Many people don't see slaves as human beings, so how can they give them a chance? Even if they do, those nobles are just to see them die."
Tang Xiaohao frowned when he heard this: "It sounds like the slaves are even lower than those domestic servants in Huayuan, and their status is the same as that of livestock."
Gilda didn't say anything more, because after all, the class was different, and even if he had any opinions, in the class he was in today, it was taboo to show sympathy.
In fact, the slaves of Rouyuan were no different from cattle and sheep, and they were even inferior to war horses. Slaves are not allowed to enter the city unless they are allowed by their masters, so when Tang Xiaohao, Bao Meng, and Ji Chengying passed through several tribal earth cities, they did not see slaves, but only saw some slaves grazing on the road.
Bao Meng didn't know exactly how the slaves lived, but he knew that there was no light in the eyes of those slaves.
No light means no hope.
In fact, Bao Meng's willingness to return to Rouyuan is not only because he wants to return to his hometown, but also because he wants to escape, and another way to escape is to find hope in a different direction.
However, when she returned to Johara, instead of finding hope, she found that the people here needed hope more than she did.
Bao Meng looked at Tang Xiaohao, who was gobbling up and eating in front of him, and remembered that the moment when the Iron Horse Formation rushed towards Tang Xiaohao before, his heartbeat was about to stop. also remembered that after discovering that Tang Xiaohao was safe and sound, she jumped out of the carriage and galloped away regardless of the identity of the princess.
My hope will be you, colt? Bao Meng looked at Tang Xiaohao blankly.
If it were you, then God really treated me well, and at the same time I lost hope, he sent new hope to my eyes.
At this time, Tang Xiaohao raised his eyes to look at Bao Meng, who was staring at him, and asked stupidly, "If you can't finish your hand-grasped mutton, can you share half of it?"
Bao Meng couldn't help laughing, and then said, "I'm not hungry, I'll give it to you, don't eat too much, I'll vomit after strenuous exercise later."
Tang Xiaohao just nodded, because his mouth was already stuffed with food, as if the Tang Xiaohao who was not angry before was another person.
