As soon as Li Sheng finished speaking, the entire wasteland outside the city gate, where countless young people gathered, fell silent instantly.
Whether it was the scholars who were discussing how to end today's events, or the young ladies who came forward one after another and planned to lend Li Sheng the good horses they brought from home,
As for the people around them who are watching...
At this moment, everything fell silent.
Use a donkey to race the opponent???
This...isn't this child's play???
How ridiculous!
Isn’t this nonsense? Has this donkey become a spirit?
No matter how good your riding skills are, you can't outrun other people's tall horses.
Not only this group of people, Li Chengqian was also dumbfounded.
I guess, what's going on with this guy, using a donkey?
It’s not that you can’t ride a donkey, but isn’t this a horse race?
This man was so arrogant before, but now he uses a donkey to compete in equestrian competitions. Could it be that he thinks he can win with a donkey?
This is impossible, absolutely impossible.
In this case, why use donkey?
For a moment, Li Chengqian went through more than a dozen circles in his mind, but he still couldn't understand why Li Sheng would choose to use a donkey to test his riding skills.
But in the end...
Thinking about it, it is definitely impossible for the other party to win, so under this premise, there is only one possibility.
The other party...
There is no doubt that he was arrogant at first and respectful at the end, fighting first and being polite later, deliberately losing to his own side to please himself!
Soldier first, then courtesy, and then raise your status?
This kind of thing is actually not uncommon since ancient times. For example, Zhuge Liang gave Liu Bei a look on his face more than once.
After understanding this, Li Chengqian snickered.
This kid still thinks his sorcery is very popular?
Today it depends on whether Gu Gei will help you to eliminate harm to the country or not!
Since the other party chose to show weakness, Li Chengqian certainly wouldn't get used to it. He immediately smiled generously and said, "The Marquis of Shengxiang is really a strong man! In that case, fine!"
"I declare, starting from here, go one mile to the north! Within one mile, the winner will be determined!"
…
As soon as Li Chengqian announced the start, all the disciples from the aristocratic families following him started making noises.
On the one hand, as a member of Li Chengqian’s party and a member of the same circle of people who eat, drink and have fun,
On the other hand, since you all come from a wealthy family, the recent heavy blows your family has suffered... are actually reflected in changes in your pocket money.
Now that Li Sheng is asking for trouble, doesn't he have to yell and scream and try his best to make trouble?
At this moment, Li Sheng smiled faintly.
"Everyone...since it's a competition, do we have to bet something else?"
When Li Sheng said this, the scholars who were watching were even more shocked.
Go ahead, you will lose if you ride a donkey, so why are you betting on something?
Face will definitely be lost, and it will be all for nothing...
And at the same time, on the other side.
The commotion around Li Chengqian became more and more noisy and loud.
The playful smile on Li Chengqian's face became more and more obvious.
Xiao Rui showed a ferocious smile, jumped on the horse behind him, looked at Li Sheng and laughed.
"The general is really brave! Good!"
"Since the general wants to make a bet, I wonder what the general's intention is? Why make a promise?"
…
At this moment, the bloodthirsty pleasure in Xiao Rui's heart was getting stronger and stronger.
After all, Your Majesty bestowed upon this man the rank of general.
In any case, the word "general" has been synonymous with top generals since ancient times. It is the highest honor for every soldier, every captain, and even every general. It is completely synonymous with Huo Qubing's word "champion".
Maybe this guy really has two brushes?
But now, the other party actually uses a donkey to test his riding skills with him??
What else should I bet on?
Xiao Rui simply laughed to death on the spot.
What mercy should there be on those who bring humiliation upon themselves!
If you are looking for death, don't blame us for being cruel!
He has already decided.
Since you have to pretend to be a wolf with a big tail, then fine...
No matter what conditions you put forward in a while, we will directly fill it up and give you the whole big...
The moment Xiao Rui thought of this,
Li Sheng then spoke,
"good!"
"It's rare that Lieutenant Xiao also has this intention. Why don't we bet on something fun later?"
"One mile away, there is no body of water, but there is a willow tree. Why don't we compete to see who can cross the willow tree first? Let's not talk about who wins. But if we lose..."
Li Sheng was smiling, and there was no hint of coldness in his eyes.
"If I lose, then I'm sorry. How about following the military custom... cut off one of your legs and sacrifice it to Sun Wu, the sage of war?"
Xiao Rui heard this.
I was stunned for a moment.
I wiped it so hard?
I originally planned to talk about hitting a military stick or something, but my leg was broken...
If you break your leg, wouldn't that mean you are out of the army forever?
Moreover, this leg was not broken on the battlefield, and there is no honor to speak of. But if your leg is broken and you are not Sun Wuzi, then you will definitely say goodbye to the Forbidden Army forever, and your life will end immediately as a warrior who has lost his value and has no honor.
This bet seems to be just a leg, but the weight is so heavy that it is basically no different from a bet on life.
So after Li Sheng finished speaking, Xiao Rui was stunned.
and……
Not only Xiao Rui, but also Li Chengqian was stunned.
Even the countless people around him, whether it was the shouting onlookers or the worried scholars on the side, were all dumbfounded.
I wiped it, so hard!
And then...
Li Sheng didn't even give everyone a chance to be surprised.
He smiled faintly at Xiao Rui's horse, and then the Dawan Divine Horse seemed to nod...
Then, Li Sheng made a gesture.
Then he looked at Xiao Rui with a faint smile, "Please, Lieutenant Xiao?"
then……
Riding a donkey on his own, he walked slowly towards his destination a mile away!
Li Sheng moved.
Before everyone reacts.
And this means...
The riding competition officially begins now!
soon.
Xiao Rui took a deep breath and waved his riding whip vigorously!
No longer looking at Li Sheng, he ran towards the target willow tree a mile away!
At this moment, Xiao Rui also wanted to understand.
Since you accepted the competition and the bet was made by you, then...even if this matter becomes a big deal, what's there to say?
If you voluntarily give me a leg, don't blame others for being ruthless!
The riding whip falls, the next moment.
Xiao Rui rode the extremely tall Dawan Divine Horse. One man and one horse rushed out like an arrow from the string!
The violent wind brought by it made it difficult for nearby onlookers to even open their eyes.
consternation!
shock!
I originally thought that Xiao Rui's horse was good, and since he was a lieutenant general in the army, his riding skills were obviously very good.
Added together, it would be extremely difficult for Li Sheng to cope.
But looking at it now, it’s not just difficult to deal with?
I'm afraid this competition is not even suspense at all!
Everyone subconsciously turned their heads and looked at Li Sheng aside, and saw Li Sheng...
Riding a donkey, he didn't even run at all, but slowly moved towards Xiao Rui's figure as if walking...
Seeing this scene, the faces of countless young men, scholars, ladies and gentlemen around them suddenly changed.
