Chapter 16: Clichés
When the one-eyed man Liu Zongdao saw Lin Zhining, he couldn't help but take a breath of cold air, if he hadn't seen Lin Zhining, how could he know the horror of Lin Zhining's bloody eyes based on people's rumors and his own imagination.
He said that he wanted to test Lin Zhining and really meet, but he didn't know how to open his mouth for a while, and he didn't know whether to test or not.
It was like a basin of cold water that extinguished his enthusiasm, not to mention Lin Zhining's martial arts, with these bloody eyes alone, many people with weak minds could lose confidence in the enemy.
Such a strange character, he didn't know if the guard force of the ranch could resist Lin Zhining's invasion, but now he didn't dare to gamble, he had already made up his mind, such a character, it was better not to offend.
After working hard, he took a step forward, and said loudly: "It turned out that the "Blood-Eyed Demon Lord" had arrived, and he had seen Your Excellency in Liu Zongdao, the second deacon of the Pegasus Ranch. ”
He has already determined Lin Zhining's identity, those bloody eyes are not something that anyone can imitate, and the only one in front of him who can seem to flow blood in the eye waves.
"It turned out that it was Deacon Liu in person, and he was polite in Xia Lin Zhining. Lin Zhining lazily rode on the horse, arched his hand casually, and said.
Liu Zongdao didn't care about Lin Zhining's rude behavior, although he had heard the news about it, but when he really saw Lin Zhining, it was still a little incredible.
What those eyes revealed was madness in a hurry to choose someone, but Lin Zhining's actions, although a little rude, also seemed close and kind, this contrast made him very uncomfortable, and he couldn't help but murmur in his heart, where did this monster come out.
You can't test Lin Zhining's martial arts, but you also need to understand Lin Zhining's intentions. He asked directly: "I don't know what Brother Lin has to do when he comes to my ranch, but if my ranch can contribute, it will definitely satisfy Brother Lin." ”
Lin Zhining didn't answer his question, Pegasus Ranch was already very extraordinary from the outside, he wanted to go in and take a look, and the famous Lu Miaozi. Just hid in the Pegasus Ranch, and finally came to one, how to miss it.
smiled and said: "There are indeed some things that need the help of the mall owner, and the Pegasus herding scene is beautiful, and Lin has long been yearning for it." Why, isn't Deacon Liu going to invite me in for some fun?"
Lin Zhining had a consultative tone, and he also had a warm smile on his face, but it matched his eyes. Liu Zongdao didn't know if Lin Zhining was really so kind to him, he had the heart to refuse Lin Zhining's request, but he couldn't think of a suitable reason for a while.
Casual excuses are bound to offend the characters in front of him, and when he doesn't know Lin Zhining's temperament, offending such a master is for himself and Pegasus Ranch. There is no half-point benefit.
The experience of often going to Turkic and other foreign territories to trade stallions has already trained him to be extremely shrewd. He was not as reckless as he seemed, and as soon as his mind turned, he understood the power of this place.
Although there is a suspicion of luring a wolf into the house, it is more reassuring to invite him in generously than to offend him and let him sneak in.
These thoughts move very quickly. As soon as Lin Zhining's voice fell, he had already made up his mind, and said with a smile: "The person who comes is a guest, how can you turn away the guest, please." ”
Let's talk about it. Get out of the way and let Lin Zhining follow him into the ranch.
After entering the pasture, Liu Zongdao and the others re-boarded the horse, took Lin Zhining, and slowly walked towards Pegasus Mountain City along the gravel paved road.
Along the way, Liu Zongdao enthusiastically introduced the ranch, and at the same time intentionally or unintentionally paraphernalia Lin Zhining's words, trying to get some more information. Lin Zhining didn't care about his clichés, although he knew a lot about the ranch, Liu Zongdao's introduction still gave him a further understanding of this seemingly indisputable Pegasus Ranch.
Shang Xiong, the owner of the Pegasus Ranch who built the first generation of this castle, was a military general at the end of the Jin Dynasty, when Liu Yu was the Jin Dynasty, changed the name of the country to Song, and the world was divided. In order to avoid the scourge of war, Shang Xiong led his men and his clansmen to the south, and found this hidden valley by coincidence, so he lived and worked here in peace and contentment, and established a pasture.
In the 160 years from the establishment of the ranch to the unification of the world by the Sui Dynasty, the Pegasus Ranch experienced seven owners, all of whom were inherited by the Shang family and had supreme authority. The others are Liang, Liu, Tao, Wu, Xu, Luo and other ethnic groups, after more than 100 years of reproduction, they did not stop moving out of the surrounding areas, forming nearby towns, to the two big cities of Yuan'an and Dangyang, more than half of their inhabitants are from Pegasus Ranch.
Pegasus Ranch is also the economic lifeline of this region, producing high-quality horses, famous all over the world, but because the owner pursues ancestral teachings, he will never participate in the affairs between the rivers and lakes and the court, and his style is low-key, and he has always been a businessman.
Shang Xiong, the first generation of the owner, was a military general, and he understood the truth of fist proximity, so he encouraged his subordinates to study martial arts and promote martial arts.
Viewed from the front, Pegasus Mountain Castle is even more breathtaking.
The city wall is built according to the mountain, built of rocks, and winds along the terrain, and the situation is precipitous. The rock behind the city is exposed, the cave hole is grand, and it is difficult for birds to cross.
After entering the city, there is a wide ramp that extends upwards to the inner fort where the highest farm owner lives, and the houses on both sides are continuous, and they are connected to the ramp by branch roads, which is characteristic of a mountain town.
The buildings are all rough and simple, built of stones, and the shape is magnificent. Along the way, the bell pavilion, the archway, the door is heavy, and the simplicity shows the heroic spirit of the city builder.
The inner fort is even more large-scale, the main building has five halls, and there is a side hall corridor. The large hut is in an orderly manner, decorated with garden flowers and trees, small bridges and waterfalls, elegant and pleasant.
Liu Zongdao also observed Lin Zhining's face while introducing, and saw that Lin Zhining was attracted by the combination of rough simplicity and elegant and lovely beauty, and his face was also full of pride, but thinking of the results of the half-day cliché, he was also disappointed and more vigilant.
In order to obtain Lin Zhining's information, he even did not hesitate to shake out the old bottom of the ranch, but he only knew Lin Zhining's name, which he took the initiative to inform, and the rest, whether it was martial arts or origin, was nothing.
This filled his heart with a sense of frustration and sudden horror, because he would never say so much about the ranch with someone of unknown origin, although it would not be much of a hindrance to the ranch if it was known, but the feeling that he had unconsciously shaken it out made him frightened.
He already deeply understands that such a character is not something he can deal with, but fortunately, Lin Zhining has no malice at present, which also makes him feel a little better. (To be continued.) )
