River Tuluo Xian

Chapter 87 The Strange Horse
The boss also smiled, the service was thoughtful, he saw that the sheep and horses were thirsty, and he brought water, but he was refused?
But the owner said so, he couldn't eat carrots anymore and worry about it.

Invite the merchants to sit down inside and bring two pots of freshly boiled tea.

The four people were enthusiastic when they came in, dragged a sack, and distributed some water chestnuts to each table.

This move alone quickly gained a lot of popularity.

Water chestnuts, also known as horseshoes, have black and purple skins, white and tender insides, and are sweet to eat.Raw can be used as a fruit, ripe can be used as a vegetable.

After talking, everyone knew that these four people went out to find the sheep and horses for the nobles in Beijing.

Only because of the special variety and thousands of choices, I dare not be careless on the road.

Even feeding water requires special care.

Otherwise, if you have a bad stomach, it will be difficult to travel thousands of miles.

After hearing this, the shopkeeper understood why the sheep and horse were so thirsty and didn't give them water.

After Jiang Ling finished his tea, he continued on the road with Ying Ning.

The woman took the child, and according to his instructions, she had to rest in the tea shed for a while before returning to the village.

She lives in a nearby village, the road is not too far away, and she is not in a hurry to go back.

Half an hour later, her abdomen was still peaceful, and her hanging heart was finally let go.

With a sensible child, we will go back to the village.

At this time, it happened that the four merchants were leaving too.

The businessman asked the woman with a smile, "Does the elder sister live nearby?"

Because the child also ate the water chestnuts given by the other party, the woman was grateful after all.

He smiled and replied, "Exactly."

"That's good. I don't know if there is a shortcut to go to Nanjun from here? We have been in a hurry this time, and there has been a lot of delay. If we don't find the shortcut, I'm afraid we won't be able to go back to Beijing at the scheduled time."

The woman said: "There are shortcuts, but the road is slightly off, so it's not easy to walk."

The merchant said: "It's okay, if there is a shortcut, the four of us will travel north and south, no matter how bad the road is, we can go through it. Why don't we let the big sister lead the way with us?"

There is a saying that cannibals have short mouths,
The woman's son has only eaten other people's water chestnuts. If he refuses now, it will be inappropriate.

But it's also inappropriate for her to lead the way for four men as a woman.

After thinking about it, I came up with a compromise: "I can take you to our village. When I get there, I won't be able to bring more. I can only point out the general direction for you."

"It doesn't matter, it doesn't matter, that's enough." The merchant said very well.

To lead the way for Mrs. Xie, he also gave up a horse for her to ride.

How can a woman dare to ride a horse?I politely declined.

But her child was carried by one person on the back of a big ram.

Strange to say, the ram was docile and tight, neither struggling nor resisting, and carried the child forward steadily.

The child was holding on to the ram's horn, enjoying himself, as if he was the ever-victorious general, and kept shouting.

The woman was worried at first, but seeing the child so happy, she acquiesced.

A mile or two away from the tea shop, a group of merchants suddenly took out candied haws from another sack.

One was given to the child, and the other to the woman.

The woman declined again,

The businessman said: "Big girl, you don't have to be polite. We also made this candied haws ourselves. It's not worth a lot of money. Besides, this stuff helps the stomach. I heard that you have gallstone disease. Eating this stuff may make your stomach feel better."

Seeing that the other party spoke sincerely, the woman finally accepted after half-pushing.

Red candied haws, when you eat it, it tastes sour and sweet.

The child was very happy, usually only during festivals, the old people in the village would make some candied haws and sugar figurines, and they needed money to buy them.

Now it's good, the merchants in this business are so generous, they give water chestnuts first, and then candied haws.You are worthy of being a nobleman from Beijing.

However, when the woman was thinking wildly about eating candied haws, she only felt sour and sweet in her mouth, but her head suddenly became dizzy, and her eyes went dark as she walked.People lose consciousness.

The same was true for the child riding on the back of the ram. He staggered and fell off the back of the ram after eating one.

The four merchants looked at this scene and smiled at each other.

Then he picked them up skillfully,

One of the merchants took out a yellow talisman from his body and slapped the woman on the head, chanting a spell, and then thick smoke rose from the woman's body.

When the thick smoke cleared, the woman turned into a horse with a yellow mane.

And the child was treated like this, and after the smoke cleared, he became a lamb.

When the merchant was casting spells, the other three were on guard.

When the spell was finished, the three laughed, and one of them whipped the yellow-maned horse and the lamb with a whip, so as to wake them up from their coma.

"It's time to go on the road, if you don't wake up now, when will you wait?"

The yellow-maned horse and the lamb woke up, and when they opened their eyes again, they seemed to feel that something was wrong.

The yellow-maned horse is about to go,
But the merchant had been on guard for a long time, he tied a rope to his legs, if he moved too fast, he would fall down.

After it fell, the man went to whip it with a whip.

"Let you run! If you run again, I will break your legs and beat your child to death."

The yellow-maned horse roared after hearing this.

It clearly speaks human words, but when it comes out it neighs like a horse.

It looked around, trying to find its own baby.

It seems that after looking around, it is finally on a lamb, and it feels familiar.

As a mother, no matter what happens to her own children, the closeness of blood and blood is still unclear.

It struggled to get up, but its four legs were trapped and it fell to the ground repeatedly.

Crawling and crawling, tears welled up in my eyes.

"Don't take me for a joke, if you are disobedient again, I will kill your child, believe it or not?"

The man raised his whip, making a gesture to beat the lamb.

Feeling sorry for his parents, the yellow-maned horse shook his head and let out a growl, which seemed to mean resignation.

It doesn't matter what you do to her, as long as you don't harm her child.

"You are wise."

Seeing the mare resigned to her fate, the four merchants laughed again.Then the ropes of all the horses were connected together, one led the way, and the two guarded the team, and walked on the road again.

After another three miles, we passed a gazebo.

Jiang Ling took Ying Ning to rest here, because there is an underground old spring, and fish jumped out just now.

Ying Ning found it amusing and wanted to poke the fish with the bamboo branch.

Jiang Ling laughed at her, how could this poke a fish?

If you want to eat fish, you should use fishing tackle.

To demonstrate to her, I cut a green bamboo the size of a thumb and tied it with a hemp rope.

Then draw a hook and material on the paper, and when the object becomes real, hemp rope will be tied to the hook.There is the third fish hanging on the hook, and the blue crucian carp can quickly attack [-], and after a little mixing, it can be used for fishing.

Ying Ning was a beginner at fishing, and with this set of tools, he was able to catch every fish accurately.

Three big fish came up, overjoyed and smiling.

When the four-person caravan came over, they happened to see her fishing.

One person clapped his hands and laughed: "This little sister is amazing, she can catch such a big fish with ease."

Jiang Ling glanced back at them and saw that they were the tea customers in the tea shed before, so he nodded his head.

The four of them had just approached the gazebo, when a horse with a yellow mane suddenly raised its front hooves, dragged the rope and ran towards Jiangling.

When the four people saw it, they stopped drinking immediately, and one even beat him with a whip.The other held the reins to keep it from getting close.

Jiang Ling was a little taken aback by this sudden move.

However, when the yellow-maned horse was whipped a few times, it suddenly knelt down, and muddy tears flowed from its eyes.

Looking at Jiangling, he bowed his head frequently!
