Volume 52 Horse Selection
This whip came very suddenly, Ming Xuan was also confused, where did he offend people again, along the way, he only cared about hurrying, staying at the point, and there was no entanglement with people at all, but doubts were doubts, which did not prevent him from easily dodging the past, and in a flash, he grabbed the whip that came with his hand.
Ming Xuan only had time to see the situation clearly at this time, the whip was a girl who was about the same age as Ming Xuan, because the girl developed early, a crimson dress, the outline was exquisite, and now it seems that it has begun to take on the demeanor of a girl, the long hair is tied into a small braid and is dancing lightly with the wind, the wheat-colored skin seems to be so energetic and wild, a pair of hazy big eyes, very bright, but at this time looking at Ming Xuan's look does not seem to be very friendly.
"Xiaoting, what are you doing here, how can you treat guests like this!" the middle-aged man reprimanded in a low voice, but his tone was not serious, and he obviously loved the girl very much.
"Dad, how can you sell a horse to such a person!" The girl didn't know where she got angry, and she didn't give up on Mingxuan, but she was coquettish to the middle-aged man, and she looked very cute.
"I'm sorry, I frightened the guests, this is the little girl Zhang Ting, who has been spoiled since she was a child and has no education. The middle-aged man said apologetically and hurriedly stopped in the middle.
"Dad, how can you talk about your daughter like that. Zhang Ting was coquettish at the man again, but she kicked Ming Xuan fiercely, and made a gesture to rush up.
"Dare to ask the girl, we have never met, why are you so dissatisfied with me. Ming Xuan never seemed to have seen her in his impression, how could he be so fist-fighting as soon as they met.
"Let me ask you, is the horse tethered to the side of the horse farm yours?" It's okay not to mention it, but Zhang Ting's face immediately became cold when he mentioned it.
"It's mine, yes. Ming Xuan replied truthfully.
"That's right, it's you who hit you!" As soon as the words fell, it seemed that Zhang Ting's powder keg had been ignited again, and the horsewhip was waved at Ming Xuan again!
"Girl, can you make it clear first, where did I offend you?" Mingxuan was depressed for a while, what kind of play was this staged, he was beaten inexplicably, but he was not good at fighting back, so he had to blindly dodge.
"Daughter, daughter, what are you doing!" the middle-aged man hurriedly stopped her and snatched the whip in his hand.
"I just saw your horse, a good horse, actually tortured like that by your inhumane torture! They are all dying, and they are happily tortured to death by you, there is such a ruthless person as you in the world! It is simply that everyone and God are angry, and everyone will be punished!" As soon as she said this, Zhang Ting's face turned red with anger, if she hadn't been stopped by her father, maybe she would have to rush up again.
"The girl misunderstood, in fact, I don't want to, I really have something urgent to do, so I have to do it. "Ming Xuan finally figured out the situation, it seems that this girl is an extremely horse lover, seeing Ming Xuan's horse being tortured like this by him, his heart is not divided, this is why he is so fierce, but his temperament is too anxious, and he doesn't give Ming Xuan a chance to explain the reason.
"I can testify to this! The little brother is here now to change the horse and not let it suffer any more!" The middle-aged man hurriedly helped Ming Xuan speak, his daughter started a fire, and he could only retreat.
"Is that so?" Ming Xuan didn't seem to be lying, and his father was on the side to help speak, and Zhang Ting's tone gradually softened
"It's true, time is pressing, and I have no choice but to change the horse to replace it, but I have never found a horse farm, and I have not found a horse farm until now. Ming Xuan hurriedly explained, and his intuition told him that this girl couldn't be offended.
"Then you won't be more leisurely, do you have such a desperate run, I don't think about whether the horse can stand it or not, it is also a fresh life!" Zhang Ting still said angrily, but gradually calmed down.
"It's my fault, I'll pay attention to it, there will never be a next time. Ming Xuan couldn't stop apologizing and reassuring the girl, but he felt strange in his heart, what the hell is going on, my horse was injured by my ride, but I want to apologize to this girl.
"Well, then I'll spare you this time, but I won't make an example. Zhang Ting feels good about herself, and she still has a tone of lesson.
The matter finally came to an end, under the introduction of the middle-aged man, Mingxuan finally figured out the situation, Zhang Ting is the only baby daughter of the middle-aged man, deeply loved, so a little rude and willful, because he grew up in the horse farm since he was a child, dealing with horses, and is also a person who loves horses very much, and he can't see others treating horses well, so when he sees Mingxuan torture the horse so much and does not treat it well, he can't suppress the anger in his heart, and he will fight with him; 。
After learning about Ming Xuan's situation and specific requirements, Zhang Ting couldn't help frowning, it was really not a simple matter to find a horse with such stamina and speed.
"If you want to run 6,000 miles in the next 20 days, it requires not only excellent endurance but also good running speed and weight, which is really not something that ordinary healthy horses can achieve. When it comes to horses, Zhang Ting is also an expert, but she also finds it tricky now.
"But I heard Ling Zun say that there are such healthy horses in Guima Farm, don't worry, the price is not a problem. Ming Xuan hurriedly said, thinking that she was hesitating for the price of the horse.
"What did my father say? He also has the same conscience as you! We do have a lot of horses in the horse farm that can do this, but that is also killing chickens and taking eggs! Can horses survive after such torture!" Zhang Ting kicked the middle-aged man fiercely, this girl talked about reason, and even her father didn't let go, making the middle-aged man laugh there, but he didn't say anything to refute.
"Then what should I do?" Ming Xuan said a little anxiously, in fact, he had no idea in his heart, if there was really no way, the middle-aged man's method was not impossible, it was a big deal to find a horse farm on the road to change the horse again.
"Well, in fact, there is a way, don't worry! We have such a large scale and a reputation for such a large scale, how can you not be able to pick a satisfactory horse? Isn't that a smashing of our signboard, you come with me. The little girl was startled, and almost didn't scare Ming Xuan to death.
Zhang Ting acted competently, it seems that she was already the head of this horse farm at a young age, after seeing her come to receive her, the middle-aged man simply left, she took Ming Xuan to a specially enclosed meadow by the lake, the aquatic plants here are far more lush and delicious than other places, it is obviously a good place.
"You are also blessed, our horse farm has recently purchased a batch of high-quality horses from the Dawan people on the grassland, and the horses are all elites on the grassland, although it is not said that they can travel thousands of miles a day, but it is not a problem to travel seven or eight hundred miles a day! If you only run four or five hundred miles a day, it should be regarded as just a warm-up! So running for twenty days in a row is still bearable for it, how about it? Zhang Ting glanced at Mingxuan proudly, with a proud face, but there was a slight hesitation in her eyes.
"Really, that's great!" Ming Xuan couldn't help but be overjoyed, and he couldn't wait to immediately pick up a horse and fly away.
"Wait, why are you in such a hurry?" Zhang Ting grabbed Mingxuan, who was about to climb over the hurdle and go over to choose a horse.
"What's the matter? I'll go into the fence and pick a horse. Ming Xuan looked at her in confusion, his face anxious.
"This batch of horses has just been purchased from the grassland, and their mood has not yet been settled, and they are still very afraid of people, the horses of the grassland are full of wildness, if you walk over so rashly, you will not only startle them, scatter and flee, but also cause them to attack! If this is the case, then you will never want to tame it!" Zhang Ting said solemnly, it seems that she is also very troubled by this.
"Anything else, I haven't encountered it before. Ming Xuan asked suspiciously.
"That's because your horse has been tamed before, so no one riding it will resist, here are all untamed steppe horses, wild and big, if you want to ride, you have to tame yourself, but I also remind you that taming horses is very dangerous. Zhang Ting said solemnly, which is why she hesitated.
"So what should I do. At this time, Ming Xuan didn't dare to act rashly, but his tone was firm.
"Pick a horse first, and I'll find a way to lure it out of the herd alone, but it's up to you to handle it. Seeing Mingxuan's resolute tone, Zhang Ting didn't say much.
"Okay, then I'll pick one first. Without further ado, Ming Xuan immediately began to look at the herd.
Although Ming Xuan has not studied horses, he can also see that the group of horses in the fence is far taller and stronger than the horses outside, and the limbs are also very vigorous, the whole body is full of lines, full of strength, at a glance, you can know that they are all characters who can run well, so that Ming Xuan was dazzled for a while, and he didn't know which horse to choose.
After repeated eye selection, a horse with a pure black body entered Mingxuan's eyes, the horses all like to scatter but gather, but it is maverick away from the group, and alone occupies the most delicious piece of this grassland, eating grass with peace of mind, and seems to disdain to share with other horses, and the horses next to it don't know whether intentionally or unintentionally, they spontaneously do not approach it, and seem to be in awe of it.
"I'll choose that one!" Ming Xuan pointed to it and said firmly.
"What? you actually chose it! Are you sure?" Zhang Ting couldn't help but let out a low cry and looked at Ming Xuan incredulously.
