Chapter 310: Horse Racing
Although the two have not seen each other for only a month, in Nangong's opinion, it is like more than ten years, and there are thousands of words in his heart that he wants to say to Ren Xiao. It was also this month that Ren Xiao experienced the biggest change in his life, and the whole person looked much more mature.
"By the way, why didn't you stay in Shanyangtang to accompany your fiancée, but instead came here like me?" Nangong's mood slowly calmed down, Ren Xiao walked to the table and poured him a glass of water, and said, "Rest may not be suitable for me, so I ran out when I couldn't stay any longer." ”
"And how did you know I was here?"
Ren Xiao took out Nangong's Zhu Xiao from behind him and said: "I found this on the grassland, I knew that you must be lost, and I was about to ask my friends here to go out to find you, and it just so happened that you were among the tomb robbers they brought back!"
"I see!But why don't you get lost, as soon as I come in, I can't find the east, west, north and south, a person has walked in this boundless grassland for more than ten days, there is no ghost, the water is gone, and the dew is taken every morning to quench my thirst, you can't imagine what I eat to survive......" Nangong couldn't stop as soon as she said it, Ren Xiao watched her tell her legendary experience like a child, and the happiness of the rest of her life after the catastrophe made her forget everything. As for what she said later, Ren Xiao can't remember clearly, because this is the first time that a girl is willing to share all the things she has experienced with herself, this feeling of being talked about has never been before, even if it is Tian Yuqi, she has never buried things silently in her heart, bears it alone, and rarely says it. Maybe this is the way everyone expresses their feelings differently, but Ren Xiao at this moment enjoys this feeling of listening.
"Knock knock" The crisp knock on the door interrupted Nangong's gushing words, and Taishi Xiaomeng came in with a bowl of beef soup and said, "Excuse me, there is no other food here, only some stewed meat, please Nangong girl to pad her stomach first!"
After seeing Ren Xiao just now, he was so excited that Nangong even forgot that he had been hungry for a long time, and when the aroma of mutton soup wafted into the room, Nangong's stomach made a "gurgling" sound.
After gobbling up for a while, Nangong slowly eased up, and his face became ruddy, and then he hurriedly thanked Taishi Xiaomeng again and again. The latter said with a smile: "You're welcome, Ren Xiao's friend is my friend, it's not enough for you to say, there are many more!"
Nangong really hasn't filled her stomach yet, but as a girl, she still has to pretend to be reserved, and said politely: "No need, it's already okay, thank you for your hospitality!"
"Then you talk, I'll go out first!" Taishi Xiaomeng could see that Nangong had not completely relaxed, and it would definitely not be appropriate for him to stay here all the time, so he retreated.
Feng Shang and Qiu Xie Ding came to the Tongtian Corridor for the first time, and they were full of curiosity about everything in the horse farm, and the two of them visited the horse farm under the leadership of Ku Fuji, and finally came to the stable.
Looking at the sturdy horses, Qiu Xie Ding couldn't help but praise: "They are all good horses, each one of them is full of energy, like a warrior ready to go!"
He asked suspiciously: "I said, what you said is a bit big! The best horses in the world are all here with you, so why did I hear that the white horse iron horse under the Tsukasa Tiger Legion of the four major legions is the best horse?"
Kufu laughed and said: "Hahaha, that's a good point, then do you know where those horses came from? General Huo comes to us every year to choose horses!" Feng Shang was stunned, not only was he speechless, but he was extremely embarrassed. At this time, Qiu Xie Ding saw a horse that was completely black, with only four horses' hooves as red as flames. Qiu Jieding stroked the horse's neck, the horse let out a low panting sound, and Qiu Jieding was full of praise and said: "Good horse, really good horse!"
Taishi Xiaomeng happened to have just come to the stable after delivering food to Nangong, and saw Qiu Xie Ding praising this horse, and said: "Brother Qiu has a good eye, this horse is the most capable of the new generation, and I am planning to train him to be the leading horse!" Qiu Xie Ding nodded and asked, "Then does it have a name?"
"Treading the flame black horse!" Taishi Xiaomeng said, he walked over and touched the horse's neck, and said to Qiu Jieding: "Do you feel the speed of the wind?" Qiu Jieding hurriedly waved his hand and said: "No need, since it is Brother Taishi's favorite horse, how can I ride it casually, but if I can't feel the scene of the horse galloping on this prairie, it's really a pity!"
"Hahaha, Brother Qiu is really bold, okay! You can pick any horse here, I will personally ride the horse with Brother Qiu!" Taishi Xiaomeng also has some wrangler pride in his bones, and people like Qiu Xie Ding are naturally like-minded. Qiu Xie Ding was respectful and obedient, and soon re-selected a horse in the stable, only to see that the horse was fiery red all over, only the center of the face was white, and it was also very strong.
Taishi Xiaomeng said: "Brother Qiu, it's a pity if you don't raise horses, the two best horses in our horse farm are currently in your favor!" Qiu Xie Ding said with a smile: "Hehe, with Brother Taishi's words, when I get old, I must also open a horse farm!"
After the two finished speaking, they led the horses and walked out, Taishi Xiaomeng saw that Feng Shang did not lead the horse, so he said: "Feng San, you can pick one too!" Feng Shang shook his head and said: "I don't have your leisure and elegance, I prefer to lie on the grass and watch the sky!" As soon as he finished speaking, Kufu Ji led the two horses out and said: "Forget it! I think you are afraid that you will run away and get lost! It's okay, my horse will be ridden for you, even if you lose it, you will know the way back!"
Kufujie said what broke Fengshang's heart, which made him very faceless, and snatched the reins from Kufuji's hand, and said: "Who is afraid of running away, just run, what's there!"
The four of them led the horse to the door of the racecourse, Taishi Xiaomeng said: "In order to ensure safety, we don't run too far, there is a small woods about five miles to the right of the racecourse, let's go there and come back after a circle, how about it?" Qiu Xie Ding arched his hand and said: "Okay, it's exactly what I want, let me see how the best horse in the world feels today!"
The four of them turned over and got on their horses, and were about to whip Kufujian suddenly said: "It's not interesting to run like this, why don't we race, how about the last one invite everyone to drink?"
Feng Shang, who was not of a high nature, heard that there was wine to drink, and immediately became excited, and said: "Okay! But you can't play tricks!" Taishi Xiaomeng smiled: "How can this be tricked, everyone is a man,
What a meal of wine is enough to worry about!"
"Ready!!" With an order, the four horses flew out like arrows from the string, and for a time the four horses drove side by side in no particular order.
"Hahaha, this feeling is so refreshing!" Qiu Xie Ding shouted excitedly, Taishi Xiaomeng looked at him and said, "Brother Qiu, I'm going to speed up!" After speaking, the long whip in his hand slapped the fart, and Taishi Xiaomeng rushed out first. Qiu Xie Ding was stunned for a moment, and also patted the horse's ass and followed, Ku Fujian looked at Feng Shang and said, "Feng Shang, you are going to invite everyone to a drink!" "Damn, aren't these people bullying me! Really I don't know how to ride a horse? This will show you how powerful the first rider of the ancient city is!" "Once the race starts, no matter how much you don't want to participate in the race before, it's a person's instinct to go all out at this time.
The distance between the four horses on the grassland is short, and you don't want to be the last one to chase me.
In the racecourse, Nangong had fully recovered, and after Taishi Xiaomeng left, she asked Ren Xiao to secretly bring back two large bowls of mutton soup. Although she was still hungry yesterday and was in danger of being eaten by tomb robbers at any time, now that Ren Xiao was by her side, she had an invisible sense of security.
"Gonghuye, what about Taishi Xiaomeng, why can't you find them?" Ren Xiao didn't find these people in the racecourse, so he had to ask Gonghu Ye, who had been at the door. The latter smiled and said, "The four of them have gone to the horse race, and they are about to come back!" After saying that, he pointed to the right side of the racecourse and continued: "Look!
Ren Xiao raised his eyes and looked, and sure enough, four horsemen rushed towards the horse farm, and said: "They are really interesting, this kind of fun game, they don't even take me!" The public said with a smile: "If I can be dozens of years younger, I will definitely compete with them!"
The horses in the distance were getting closer and closer, leading Taishi Xiaomeng and Qiu Jieding, Feng Shang was close behind, and Ku Fujian was at the end, but he could overtake Feng Shang at any time. Taishi Xiaomeng, who was at the front, saw that he couldn't get rid of Qiu Xie Ding no matter what, and said: "Amazing! You are still the first person outside the horse farm who can match me!" Qiu Xie Ding used his whole body to surpass Tai Shi Xiao Meng, and said, "How about the two of us increase the stakes?"
Taishi Xiaomeng was also very excited, and said, "Okay!
"If either of us loses, how about running twenty laps around the racecourse with the other party?" Qiu Xie Ding likes this way of both exercising and punishing. Taishi Xiaomeng laughed and said: "Hahaha, okay! I've ridden a horse for so long, and I've never ridden anyone, Brother Qiu, don't blame me for being rude!"
"Brother Taishi, you can't say it so early, it is still unknown who will kill the deer!" Qiu Xie Ding naturally would not admit defeat so easily.
Kufuji, who was following behind, also said to Feng Shang: "How about we also increase the stakes?" Feng Shang glanced at him and said disdainfully: "Cut, you must lose, how do you bet?" Kufu Ji said: "If anyone is the last place, they have to hold the wine bowl in both hands and invite the other party to drink, and if the other party doesn't drink, they must keep holding it, so how about three bowls?"
Feng Shang strained his legs and said, "Okay, you just wait to give me a salute! I'm going to let you serve it all night!"
