The Record of Swordsmen in the Late Sui and Early Tang Dynasties

Chapter 715 Seven hundred four: Caravan racecourse picks horses

In the morning of the next day, Duan Wuji and the others got up to take a look, only to find that none of the carriages they had hired had left long ago!
Duan Wuji only found out after inquiring about those guards that those vehicles had already left for almost an hour!
Duan Wuji smiled slightly after hearing this, these people really left early enough!

"Well, that's fine, then they can go back to China when it gets dark today, if they can all go home safely, that's better than anything else!

After all, it's not easy to follow me out to earn so much money! "

Not too long, the maid brought out several large pots of steaming hot cooked meat.

Seeing these guards, it was a frantic rush!

Duan Wuji and the others didn't go into the main room, the three of them took a large piece of cooked meat from the big wooden basin and ate it!

After eating one piece after another, the three of them are not only good at martial arts, but also the speed of eating is unmatched!

Others just finished eating one piece, but the three of them have already finished three pieces.

By the time someone else eats the third piece, all three of them are full.

Not too long later, Nayelu Chucai walked out of the house.

"Brother Wuji, why don't you three go inside to eat!

Are you three still hungry?Let's pick a horse after dinner! "

Duan Wuji and the others laughed and said: "The three of us have already eaten enough. There is also meat outside and inside the house. Is there any difference!"

"Hmm! There is no difference, they are all the same meat, it's just that the room is warmer.

Now that you're all full, I reckon we'll go now!

Now this short day, it won't be long before it gets dark! "

"Well! All right then!

Brothers, isn't everyone already full?Pick up our horse driving pole, let's go, let's pick a horse now, this matter has already been settled, and it's clear! "

Led by Yelu Chucai, the people rushed to the northwest corner of the Qingcaotan residential area.

This horse farm is only more than 20 miles away from the Qingcaotan residential area, so it's already here!

When I arrived at the horse farm, I saw that the horse farm was basically the same as before. There were a large number of horses in several huge horse farms. The horses were running in the stables of the horse farm. It looks like a dragon and a tiger!

Duan Wuji saw it and said with a smile: "Brother Yelu Chucai, how many horses are there in your group of horses?"

"Oh, there are not too many horses in these laps, only seventeen or eight thousand horses!
Just pick from there!

Just pick 1 horses, and we will slaughter and eat the rest of the horses this summer when they are fattened up.

On our prairie, don’t we raise horses just for slaughtering meat? Our place is not like your farming area, where they can be used to pull carts to plow the land!

Even if we grow crops in this place, they don’t grow!

Besides, those of us don't know how to grow crops!

How could we do that job!

Or we are more practical in raising horses, cattle and sheep! "

Duan Wuji said to Tie Niu and Chai Shao: "You two brothers, let's start choosing horses!
Each of the three of us chooses a horse from a stable. We have been raising horses for such a long time. Choosing a horse, the three of us are familiar with it!

Pick out the fastest horses and let them keep the rest!

Each of us remembers the number of horses we have chosen, and when the time comes, let's touch each other together!

For the three of us, each choose four thousand horses.

Whoever chooses enough will rest! "

The two listened and nodded.

"Well, all right then! Let's do it like this!"

Yelu Chucai called over twenty people who were watching the horses, and asked them to divide into three groups to keep an eye on Duan Wuji and the others. Everyone went out to choose those horses together!

The work of selecting horses went very smoothly. When the sun just turned westward, Duan Wuji and the others had selected enough horses from the herd.

When Duan Wuji was picking horses, he found a white horse in the herd. This horse was a head taller than ordinary horses. This horse was completely white, except that the four hooves were black.

This horse has no stray hairs all over its body, but its two ears are red.

The more Duan Wuji watched it, the more he liked it!

Duan Wuji Niutou said to Yelu Chucai: "Brother Yelu Chucai, find me a saddle to tie this horse up!"

Yelu Chucai laughed and said: "What do you want it for! Brother, maybe you don't know!
This horse is a fierce horse, it kicks and bites other horses, that is very dishonest!

A while ago I wanted to kill it to eat meat, but I caught it three times but failed to catch it!

Such a fierce horse, if used as a mount, I don't think it is very suitable!

Can you subdue such a horse! "

Duan Wuji laughed and said: "Isn't it just a horse! Then what can't be subdued!

No matter how powerful the horse is, I still have a way to deal with it!

I found that this horse is a head horse. If I ride it, other horses will follow this horse!

Wouldn't it be much easier to transport the horse back like this! "

"Saddle it on its back? Can it let you saddle it?

If it was so honest, would it still be called that fierce horse?

I have a lot of good riders here, and many people want to surrender it!

In the end, he either fell off the horse or was bitten off the horse by its button.

In the end, no one has surrendered him!

Do you want to use it as a mount?Isn't that just looking for bad luck!I advise you to forget it!

You might as well choose another good horse!There are so many horses, why choose it!
I think this horse only wears slaughtered meat to eat! "

Duan Wuji laughed and said: "It can't be as fierce as you said!
If you don't believe me, I'll give you a ride on it! "

Saying that, Duan Wuji jumped into the horse pen with a volley leap, and the quickness of Duan Wuji's movements surprised everyone!

My heart said: Why is this person's kung fu so good!He has no wings, how did he fly in!

Duan Wuji approached the horse slowly, and when he was about a zhang away from the horse, Duan Wuji leaped forward and jumped onto the back of the white horse.

Ho!As soon as the white horse saw that someone dared to ride it, it gave up. It immediately neighed and started piling. It wanted to throw Duan Wuji off the horse.

Duan Wuji stretched out his hand and grabbed the horse's mane, no matter how the horse jumped and set up stakes, there was still no way to throw Duan Wuji off!

The horse jumped more than 100 times, and it didn't calm down until it stopped moving.

Duan Wuji saw it and said with a smile: "Isn't that what you do, what's so great about it!"

Duan Wuji reached out and patted the horse's buttocks hard.

"You are jumping for me! How did you become honest!"

After the horse was hit hard, it immediately jumped up even more violently with a long hiss!
After another hundred or so jumps, I finally became honest again!
At first sight, the horse couldn't shake Duan Wuji off, and finally calmed down.

Duan Wuji jumped down from the horse's back with a bang, and the horse opened its mouth and bit Duan Wuji's arm fiercely as soon as it saw Duan Wuji jumping off.

Duan Wuji saw it and said with a smile: "Damn you are still not convinced!"

Duan Wuji slapped the horse on the face, Duan Wuji felt that he hadn't exerted much force, and the horse fell to the ground by Duan Wuji's slap.

Duan Wuji saw it and said with a smile: "What? Are you so fucking unfunny?
You fell to the ground and played dead for me?Get up for me! "

Okay, Duan Wuji pulled the horse's mane vigorously, pulling the horse up from the ground again.

Duan Wuji slapped the horse's face on the other side of the horse.

"I told you to be shameless, play dead for me!"

The horse was knocked down by him again.

Duan Wuji yanked the mane and pulled it up from the ground again.

This horse was taken care of badly by Duan Wuji just now, looking at Duan Wuji now, it is trembling all over with its head down.

Duan Wuji grabbed it by the ears and pulled it down beside the stable.

Duan Wuji said with a smile: "Brother Yelu, look, it is not as fierce as you said!

Isn't this very obedient!
This horse is extremely spiritual. If you can subdue it, it will be very honest to you!

If you refuse to submit to it, then it will show its prestige in front of you! "

Seeing Duan Wuji's bravery, Yelu Chucai couldn't help laughing and said, "Brother, brother, I have convinced you. The most powerful horse is in front of you, so it has to be convinced!"

Yelu Chucai said to a Turkic man beside him: "Go and get a set of saddles and bridles, and tie it up for me!"

"Then it still has to bite me!"

The Turkic muttered in a low voice.

"You trash, didn't you see that it has been cleaned up just now!

You go get the bridle and all, and I'll put it on! "

The Turkic man ran into the tent and came out with a set of saddle ropes and other things. The Turkic man handed these things to Yelu to save money.

Yelu Chucai put the saddle and bridle on the horse very neatly.

At this time, Duan Wuji let go of the horse's ears.

After Duan Wuji tied the horse to the posts of the fence, he walked straight to the fence where Chai Shao selected the horses.

When I went to the place where Chai Shao was picking horses, I saw that Chai Shao had already picked out all the horses.

Duan Wuji looked at Chai Shao and said with a smile: "Brother Chai, have you selected enough horses?"

"That's enough counting, I've chosen this horse very carefully!"

Duan Wuji listened and nodded.

"Well! That's all right. Now that we have selected enough horses, let's meet with Brother Tie Chu. If there is nothing wrong, then let's leave in a while!"

The two of them were just about to run to the place where Tie Niu was picking horses, when Tie Niu rushed over happily.

"Brother Chai and Brother Wuji, let me tell you some good news! Just now I subdued a good horse, and that horse is a top horse. That horse is good! It is a strong horse with a green mane.

The horse's four hooves are black, its whole body is charcoal red, only its mane is blue.

That horse is so beautiful!When I pass through Taiyuan Mansion, I will take it home, and it will be my mount from now on! "

Duan Wuji laughed and said: "Today I also fell in love with a horse, it is a white horse, only two horses ears are red, I thought about it just now, I named it Chituma Bar!"

Chai Shao laughed out loud.

"Brother, you really know how to come up with a name! Lu Bulu Fengxian's Chitubai was a big red horse back then!

Why, your white horse has two red ears, so you named it Chituma, which is somewhat unreasonable! "

Duan Wuji blinked his eyes.

"I just call it the Chitu Horse, what's the matter! My horse, I can call it whatever I like, no one cares about it!

Okay, let's stop arguing about these useless things, the three of us say hello to Yelu Chucai, let's hurry up and evacuate the horses!

Only when we return to our country can we be completely safe! "

After hearing this, Chai Shao looked up, only to see that the sun was already westward.

"Brother, is it appropriate for us to catch the night? Don't make any mistakes!"

Duan Wuji grinned when he heard this.

"Taking advantage of the night to protect me, it's almost the same if we can't make it all night!

I've stayed here for a long time, once Nayelu Hengtong returns, won't our brother cause a lot of trouble out of thin air!

Brother Chai, what do you say! "

"Well! What you said makes sense!

Well, then let's say hello to him and leave immediately.

Let's leave this wrong place early! "

The three of them came to greet Yelu Chucai and were about to leave when suddenly a big green horse came galloping from the east.

"Brother Wuji, Brother Tieniu, I'm coming!"

As soon as Duan Wuji and Tieniu heard this, they knew that Yelu Hengtong Pegasus had arrived.

Duan Wuji smiled at Chai Shao, knowing that he couldn't leave now.

Nayelu Hengtong rushed in front of Duan Wuji and the others and got off his horse.

Duan Wuji saw it, ho!This Yelu Hengtong's eyes were red and his face was haggard.

Duan Wuji asked with a smile: "Brother Yelu, why do you look like this?"

Yelu Hengtong laughed and said, "I'm not afraid of you leaving, am I? If you leave, where else can I find you?"

Yelu Hengtong said to Yelu Chucai: "Third brother, take our people far away, I want to talk to them for a while!

This matter must not be heard by any of us!

So as not to bring us unreasonable disasters. "

Yelu Chucai understood what the elder brother meant as soon as he heard it, and immediately found a reason to lead those Turkic people away.

Yelu Hengtong looked at Duan Wuji and said in a low voice: "Brother, I finally found out the exact news, that old boy Jiebu Zaba is also selling horses recently!

All the horses he traded were transported to Houhan. It is said that this is the third time he has transported horses to Houhan.

That old boy can really make a fortune!I heard that in another three or four days, they will bring the horse back from Beihai again.

It just so happens that you can rob and kill them halfway!

You killed him, and you avenged me.

If I don't avenge this, I will feel so aggrieved that I will die. "

Duan Wuji thought for a while and asked: "Brother Yelu, since you have begged me, I have to take care of this matter!

Who told us to have friendship!

Brother Luye, haven't you asked, how many people are there in their horse selling team?We can't fight an uncertain battle! "

"Can I not inquire about this? I have already inquired clearly.

Their horse-trading team only has about a hundred people.

If there are too many people, wouldn't the horse trade cost a lot? "

Duan Wuji thought for a while and said: "Okay, then I will give him a vote, and I will vent my anger for you!
Brother Yelu, can your body still hold on? "

Yelv Xingtong laughed and said, "What's the problem! Even if I don't sleep for another four or five days, I will be fine!"

Duan Wuji listened and nodded.

"Okay, big brother Yelu, you and my elder brother Yelu, the treasurer, will help me drive this group of horses back first!
It's not too late for this matter, we have to act quickly!

If the old boy is allowed to drive the horses past, then we will be in trouble! "

"Well, that's good! Then let's act immediately. For this distance, if we act quickly, we will almost reach it tomorrow morning.

As soon as you put down the horses, let's take action at once! "
