Volume 1 Chapter 29: The Horse Racing Festival of Don

The next day, the weather was exceptionally warm. People come and go in the palace city is not lively, today is the most important horse racing festival of the Tang people, almost all the officials of the DPRK and China come to watch, Helian Yi and Xiao Yunyan sit in the VIP position, from time to time, the wolf lord and Zanmong each arrived, Zanmeng sat in a Chinese car, the officials cheered for her arrival, Helian Yi was a little puzzled, but did not ask, Dorje seemed to understand the doubts of the two, and explained to the two: "We Zanmeng have not been out of her own dormitory for three years, and today is the first time she has gone out in three years, So everyone was very happy to see her. ”

"I see, it seems that you are taking this horse racing festival very seriously?"

Dorje said, "It's not a secret, this horse racing festival is an annual festival among the people, but it's just a horse race. In Miyagi, it is a triennial, and the tricks are much more complicated than the folk, and we have always elected the virtuous as the wolf master, so this horse racing festival seems to be a horse race, but it is actually the selection of the next wolf master. Today's first day is the falconry conference, tomorrow there will be an archery competition, the day after tomorrow will be a horse race, and there will be some literary exams in the future. ”

When Xiao Yunyan heard that there was archery, he asked Dorje again, "Is this something that everyone can participate in?" ”

"It is the first person in the previous horse racing festival to participate, and now there are more than 20 candidates." looked at Tenzin, which means: In terms of archery, if you dare to compete, it's just a pity!

As a few people were talking, the wolf lord and Zanmon's chariot had arrived, and the two of them stepped forward to visit Zanmon, who was almost half-lying, and could see that his body was weak, looking at the two, but sighed a few times: "What a pair of wall people." I only heard Zanmong ask in Tang dialect again: "What about the young Tenzin who talked about last night?" Why don't you see him? ”

After Tenzin was released, he has been following Xiao Yunyan's side, entering as Xiao Yunyan's attendant, Tenzin heard it, so he stepped forward to salute, Zanmeng was a little surprised when he saw him, looked at Helian Yi and looked at him, except for one with dark skin and one white as jade, the rest was almost identical, and finally said to the wolf master: "I don't know, I thought they were sisters and brothers." ”

The wolf lord smiled, "I was also shocked when I saw it last night. ”

As several people spoke, with a hawk whistle, the game began. For a while, several burly and majestic men slowly walked out, each holding a golden eagle in their hands. The big men sat on horseback and went through two rounds of competition. Next: called eagles, more than 20 golden eagles flew out hula, the other eagles had gradually flown away, and one eagle flew as if he had suddenly discovered something, always hovering in one place, his sharp eyes were firmly on a palace guard. Seeing that the other golden eagles had already flown away, its falconry was in a hurry, but no matter how he urged, it was always to no avail. Finally, after circling for a while, the golden eagle suddenly flipped its wings and swooped towards the palace guard. Everyone who saw it was shocked, and some other guards next to the guard stepped forward to protect him, and the owner of the eagle also rushed to the guard's side at this time, but no matter how the owner of the eagle stopped him, the golden eagle remained indifferent, and still focused on attacking the guard. The guard dodged left and right, and under the protection of the robes, although he dodged for a while, he was still injured by the golden eagle pecking with a sharp beak. In this way, the guards gathered more and more, but the golden eagle still swore not to give up, and the ground was covered with the blood of the guards. At this time, a group of guards gathered, and they kept driving the golden eagle, but the strange thing was that the golden eagle only focused on dealing with that one guard, but did not attack the others. The guards drove the golden eagle away, and were about to carry the wounded guard to safety, only to see that the golden eagle was about to swoop down again......

At this time, Tenzin finally could not stand it, he first blew a strange whistle, then lightly jumped to a horse, stood on the horse's back, and then stretched out another hand, waiting for the golden eagle to fly. Everyone looked at it strangely, and as soon as Tenzin's whistle blew, the golden eagle immediately stopped attacking the guards, and then really flew into Tenzin's hands.

Seeing this, the falcon trainer was greatly surprised, the golden eagle who had been with him for many years could not be subdued by himself, but was easily subdued by Tenzin. I felt disgraced for a while.

At this time, the golden eagle in Tenzin's hands and Tenzin looked at each other, and the venue was already quiet, and after Tenzin and the golden eagle owner asked and answered, he talked to the injured guard for a long time, and everyone present was surprised and praised again and again, including the wolf lord and Zanmon.

Xiao Yunyan and Helian Yi couldn't understand what they were saying, but only understood that Tenzin seemed to be questioning the injured guard, so Helian Yi whispered to the waiter who was specially assigned to them by the wolf lord on the side and could speak some Chinese, and asked, "What are they talking about?" ”

The waiter replied, "Tenzin asked the guard if he had done anything to the golden eagle, but the guard did not admit it at first, and Tenzin repeatedly questioned him before he said that he had a disease that could only be cured by eating some newborn eagles, so he went to dig out the golden eagle's nest and stole a newborn eagle." ”

"No wonder." As Helian Yi spoke, Tenzin seemed to be communicating something with the golden eagle before returning it to its master. What is surprising is that the golden eagle has obeyed Tenzin from beginning to end, and only when it looks at Tenzin, its originally sharp gaze becomes unusually soft and smooth.

Zanmeng seemed to be in such a trouble, and her spirit was much better than before, she said a word to the wolf master, and the wolf lord immediately summoned Tenzin, who had returned to Xiao Yunyan's side, and asked him some questions.

This time, there was no need to ask others, Helian Yi and Xiao Yunyan had already guessed that under the encouragement of Zanmeng, the wolf lord seemed to have the intention to make an exception for Tenzin to participate in the event, and Tenzin seemed to be happy to accept it. At this time, Lord Dorje was holding Tenzin's hand and announcing Tenzin's qualification to participate in the tournament for the wolf master, and the crowd was cheering and boiling, and it could be seen that everyone was sincerely impressed by this young man.

Xiao Yunyan was happy for Tenzin, but Helian Yi was deeply uneasy. As early as yesterday, she already felt that her mistake this time was the pull of her father to meet Tenzin. Xiao Yunyan looked at Helian Yi with a smile, but saw her looking at Tenzin, with loss and anxiety flashing on her face.

"What's wrong with you? Aren't you happy for Tenzin? ”

Helian Yi could only smile reluctantly, "Of course I'm happy for him, but I never thought he was so powerful." How the hell did he manage to communicate with the eagle? ”

Xiao Yunyan also felt that this young man was a little strange, but he guessed: "It is estimated that he was also a falcon trainer." ”

Helian Yi nodded, thinking that only this explanation could make sense. But she still refused to give up, and only hoped that he would eventually succeed. Unfortunately, Helian Yi's hopes were always disappointed, and Tenzin still came out on top and was far ahead in the three-day competition.
