Chapter 2: The Man in the City, No Boy Section 44: A Thousand Miles of Good Horses

Mu Youzhi heard that Marshal Wei had already agreed, and he naturally didn't have to worry about the formalities in the future, and he was afraid that this Wei Jiaguo would react, so after thanking him, he pulled Li Chengzhuo to accompany him to pick a good horse, leaving Renshan here to go through the corresponding procedures...

The horses stored in the garrison were all war horses, all of them heroic, and one of them was the thinnest of the white horses, and even the most conspicuous of all the brown horses, regardless of their size. Naturally, this white horse is useless and old, because the people he once carried made great achievements, but he died with the enemy, and it was this horse that brought back the body of this master, so he stayed in the army to retire.

Mu Youzhi was already happy when he first saw the white horse, and when he looked at the horse, only the white horse looked at him.

Li Chengjie could naturally feel that his junior brother had taken a fancy to the white horse.

He was followed by the soldier who managed the stable, and he was ordered to let them choose a good horse. The soldier followed them and told them the origin of the white horse. What the soldier meant was that you could choose any horse you wanted, but the white one might not work.

Mu Youzhi already liked it a little, listening to the story told by the soldier, he was even more moved, he looked at his senior brother with blank eyes, in fact, he knew that whether he could take this horse away or not had to depend on his senior brother. The meaning of the soldier's words was clear to the two of them.

Li Chengjie did not act impulsively, but walked to the white horse, reached out and touched the horse's head, and the horse did not resist, although the white horse was old, but the hair on his body was still very delicate and soft. Then, Li Chengjie touched from top to bottom until he covered the horse's eyes and his hand was not sliding. Generally, if the horse's eyes are suddenly blocked and there is no light, the horse should instinctively take a few steps back, but this horse does not, obviously this horse is also trained properly on the battlefield, although it is older, but the quality is still there. Li Chengjie put his other hand in front of the horse's nose, felt the horse's breathing, and then made further judgments on the horse. Breathe evenly and don't feel short of breath. Although this horse is already old compared to normal horses, compared to the breed of this horse, it should have just reached the prime of life at this time, and it is far less unbearable than the soldier said.

The book once said, "Those who are thousands of miles away from horses will eat or eat a stone." Horse eaters don't know that they can eat thousands of miles. Is it a horse, although it has the ability to live thousands of miles, it is not enough to eat, it is not enough, it is not beautiful, and it is impossible to get it with a regular horse, so it can be a thousand miles?"

"Senior brother, let's choose this horse. Brother, I also think this horse is very good. Li Chengjie naturally didn't explain so much to them, as long as the junior brother likes it, it's good to ask for it.

"Childe, could it be that the little one just wasted his tongue?" the soldier asked. Why bother? There are so many strong horses here, why choose this skinny horse? Moreover, this is a loyal horse, staying here to spend his old age.

"It is precisely because this horse is spiritual that it should not be buried by you like this. It is not the horse's ambition to retire here, it also wants to gallop thousands of miles. Li Chengjie thought about it, or should explain one or two.

"Galloping thousands of miles? Look at the tiredness in the horse's eyes. It's not something you can turn a blind eye to if you have your hand in the way. The soldier did not know where the two men came from, but they felt that they were very messy at this time, and that they were also kind.

"Let me ask you, did the order you received just now say that Marshal Wei said that the two of us can choose any horse in this stable?" Mu Youzhi could hear it, and the senior brother also agreed with his vision, and felt that this horse was very spiritual, so he had an idea.

"Yes, ahhh

"Then I'll choose this one, you don't need to say much, if it hinders the two brothers and sisters from doing big things, can you afford this crime?" Mu Youzhi was very tough, and without waiting for the soldier to react, he went to lead the horse out and said, "Senior brother, let's go." ”

The soldier was still thinking about it, and there should be some truth in what the boy said. He was still thinking about it, Li Chengjie and Mu Youzhi had already gone away, and they happened to meet Renshan after finishing their errands, and the three of them went to the Beijing Garrison Guards and Renshan's own territory.

The soldier, after thinking about it, was still wrong, and he couldn't say what was wrong, but seeing that the person had gone away, the more uneasy he felt, and after thinking about it, he should go and tell the marshal.

In the Wei family's account, the little man in charge of the soldiers and horses went to plead his case, Wei Jiaguo thought that he hadn't said that the horse was an accident before, and after letting the man retreat, the heir went to tell the people that the horse had to be used for three days, and it had to be returned.

Wei Jiaguo remembered that the person who this horse was carrying back was a general whom His Majesty appreciated very much, so although this horse stayed with him for retirement, His Majesty said that this is a meritorious horse and should be rewarded, and it is considered a meritorious official horse, and it should be raised in this group of horses.

Wei Jiaguo thought that His Majesty the Emperor should not be so stingy, and after riding with someone for three days, he would have to go back, and then it should not be a big problem to recuperate.

When Mu Youzhi heard the words of this Wei Jiaguo, he felt that this person was stingy. Li Chengjie also felt a little helpless. It's just a horse...

But this horse is really a good horse, just now in the stable of the horse's eyes were full of tiredness, but at the moment when Mu Youzhi rode on him, his eyes rejuvenated, the gallop on this road, especially the horse they were riding, but the junior brother's riding skills were general, and he didn't notice it.

"There is no greater mourning for a husband than the death of the heart, and death for a person is secondary. "It's the same with horses. If I can't show my ambition, I will regret it for the rest of my life. Li Chengjie is also thinking about his ideals along the way. The exam is approaching, you should prepare for the exam again, don't be big, like Marshal Nawei, you can accept failure!

"Senior nephew, go and prepare a pair of pen and ink for your uncle, your uncle I will personally depict the appearance of the thief saint, and when my uncle is painting, no one will come to disturb me, and you can't do it, go and prepare." Mu Youzhi came to the territory of his nephew, and he had the approval of Wei Jiaguo, and he spoke very hard.

"What about me?" Li Chengjie listened to Mu Youzhi's words, and he didn't know what his junior brother wanted to do, but he didn't know that he was here, so it was a disturbance...

"Senior brother, you naturally can't be counted, you have to paint with me. Mu Youzhi smiled at Senior Brother Li Chengjie.

Li Chengjie heard the laughter, full of ill intentions...

After a while, the pen and ink were in place, and Mu Youzhi and Li Chengjie also made room for no one to use for the two of them.

Mu Youzhi is very diligent, after the pen and ink are in place, he hurriedly went to grind the ink, and then dropped a sentence to Li Chengjie, "Senior brother, junior brother, I'll grind the ink for you first, you quickly think about what the thief you saw that day looked like, and when you think of it, hurry over and draw it." Hey, hey, hey. ”

Li Chengjie heard what Mu Youzhi said, and he really held down his senior brother and went to the death, and he was a wage earner... It's still the kind that doesn't pay you... No, didn't I come here today to help my junior brother... Yes, I remember the man's face, and I should have drawn it.

Well, this idea is very strange.

Mu Youzhi smoothed the ink, Li Chengjie picked up the brush and drew the appearance of the little second according to his memories of that day. A child of a family like Li Chengjie may not be proficient in everything, but he has to dabble in piano, chess, calligraphy and painting, and martial arts, so this portrait painting is naturally not a problem, and the painting is lifelike.

After Li Chengjie finished painting, he asked Mu Youzhi to take a look, and sure enough, he didn't pay much attention to the person who served tea and poured water, but when he looked at the portrait at this time, he felt that it must be this person. Regardless of whether he is a thief or not, it is indeed the little second of that day. Mu Youzhi thought so.

However, after Li Chengjie handed over the painting to Mu Youzhi, he asked him a question, "Senior brother, if this person is not a thief, don't you and I ruin this person's life?"

Mu Youzhi listened to Senior Brother's question, but did not answer, but asked,

"Senior brother, how likely do you think you are to be the top student in high school?"

"Ninety percent" Li Chengjie said truthfully, according to his literary cultivation, he should be nine out of ten, but there may be one or two dark horses breaking in, and it is also possible to win the Sacred Heart and take that one percent.

"Senior brother, what do you think is the chance that you will be able to catch that thief in three days?" Mu Youzhi then asked.

"Ninety percent. "One is Li Chengjie's confidence in himself, the second is that Li Chengjie already has some ideas, and the third is that Li Chengjie has some ways to solve the illusion puzzle, three points account for ninety percent, and the other is that the thief is no longer in Beijing, so how can people arrest him?

"Senior brother, do you think that the person who stole your belongings that day had a high level of theft skills but was a person related to stealing saints, whether it was a disciple of a saint thief, but it was a related person?"

"Ninety percent. "Stealing that gem from my belt is no ordinary thief.

"Senior brother, how likely do you think it is that the person who stole your belongings is the person on this portrait?"

"Ninety percent. Judging from the analysis of the day, only that little two had a chance, and it was very likely, but it was not ruled out that the means were so high that he couldn't detect it at all, and he had one percent.

"Senior brother, what do you want to say?" Li Chengjie was a little confused. Does the junior brother think that it is enough to be ninety percent sure?" "Senior brother, once this portrait is published, it will ruin this person's life, even if there is ninety percent certainty, but in case..."

"Senior brother, do you know that ninety percent of what you say is ten percent in the eyes of junior brother!" Mu Youzhi said loudly.

This sentence also echoed in Li Chengjie's heart, and it couldn't be calmed down for a long time.

"Ninety percent in the mouth of the senior brother is ten percent in the eyes of the junior brother. "What a high rating.

"Senior brother, in my junior brother's opinion, you are the champion of this imperial examination, and the master also believes that you can catch the thief saint, I agree to believe that you will definitely be able to catch the thief saint. Even if there is really that case, junior brother, I have my own way, senior brother does not have to worry. Mu Youzhi added, and handed it to the person outside the door to take it out and print it, post it, and look for the person on the portrait.

"Good. Li Chengjie seemed stupid at this time, the expression on his face was very complicated and weird, he could only say a good word, but he couldn't speak, it seemed that it would take a while to calm down...
