Xia Qingzhong presented Xie Tianhua's donation document, and Da Kui carefully kept it in his arms. After saying goodbye to Xia Qingzhong, Da Kui took up the burden and led Hei Feng out of the Hanzhong County Yamen.
Dakui's outfit is not eye-catching, but Heifeng is a bit enviable. Heifeng's body is slender and strong, a whole head taller than ordinary horses. How can such a horse not attract people's attention, especially when Dakui is dressed in rags but is holding a hand
Carrying a good horse attracts the attention of the people.
After leaving Hanzhong County and heading south, it was already sparsely populated. Da Kui murmured as he walked: "Even if I walk to the sky on foot, I will take you back and feed you every day. I still have fresh food at home."
Beans, there are still fruits in season in summer and autumn, you are lucky, hehehe."
As they were walking, they came to a dense forest. Da Kui was carrying a burden and still said: "Look at me, I would rather carry the burden myself than burden you. I will give you a bath when you get to a place where there are people."
At this moment, two figures suddenly appeared in the forest and blocked the way. Da Kui looked up and saw that they were two burly men. The one on the left had a rough face and was wearing a gray cotton robe, and the other was fierce and had a long scar on his face. That's it.
If you two were walking in a crowd, others would probably walk around you. At this moment, the figures appearing in the wilderness are obviously dangerous.
"He who carries the burden, leave some money to help you survive. Otherwise, a white knife goes in and a red knife comes out." The scar-faced man shouted sharply and took out a short knife from his arms.
Dakui was so shocked that he sat down on the ground. After a while, he got up and said with a grimace: "I'm just a salesman. I don't have any money. You two good men, please let me go."
Two strong men couldn't help but rushed to Da Kui. The scar-faced man kicked Da Kui to the ground. The other man grabbed Da Kui's burden, untied the rope and rummaged around for a while. After looking for a long time, they found nothing valuable.
The evil man couldn't help being furious, and rushed to Dakui's side, punching and kicking him.
Heifeng was originally led by Da Kui. When he saw two big men beating Da Kui, Heifeng snorted and ran to the side of the road. Until Da Kui lost his voice and the two villains were tired from the beating, they summed up: "Hard work!"
You can't go back empty-handed. Seeing the black horse on the roadside, the two villains couldn't help but look at each other and smile.
Unexpectedly, when Hei Feng came to lead the horse, Heifeng turned around and thrust back a pair of hind hooves. The scar-faced man was kicked in the lower abdomen before he could react. This hoof can be said to be fierce and powerful.
The man with a bad face was kicked two feet away and rolled to the ground.
The other man was shocked and hurriedly went to look after his companion. It took a long time for the scarred man to regain his breath. He stood up with the help of his companion. "Brother, this horse is too strong. Forget it, I will walk away today for nothing."
." The other man nodded, and then helped the scar-faced man away from the place of right and wrong.
Dakui lay on the ground for a long time, and Heifeng stood on the roadside. Maybe he was a little thirsty, and Heifeng ate the snow on the roadside from time to time, and the turf under the snow became delicious.
After nearly a cup of tea, Heifeng slowly approached Dakui. He first touched Dakui's head with his mouth, but there was no movement. Heifeng went to touch Dakui's body again, but Dakui finally moved.
The north wind blew, and Dakui choked and coughed twice. He looked very weak. He pulled the rope around Heifeng's neck and just stood up. His feet slipped and he fell to the ground again. Dakui had a look of pain on his face and used both hands and feet.
After crawling forward for a while, I rested for a long time and then managed to pack up the scattered luggage and burdens on the ground.
It seemed that Dakui was seriously injured, and even getting up was a luxury. Black Horse stared at Dakui for a while with his big eyes, and then walked to Dakui's side. He knelt on Dakui as before, and then climbed down on all four legs.
Da Kui wanted to laugh. After all, livestock are livestock. Even if they are psychic, they will not understand the dangers of human hearts. All of this is a trap, just to tame this dark horse. After spending many days together, Da Kui can be said to be deliberately trying to please the dark horse. Gradually, the relationship between man and horse gradually grows. The estrangement disappeared, and then Dakui used a cruel trick to finally make the dark horse recognize his master.
There are only two ways to tame a good horse. One is to subdue its body and control its wildness. The other is to subdue its heart and let it recognize its master. Back then, Hongyun was the former, and today's Heifeng is the latter.
Dakui held the burden in his hand and climbed onto Heifeng's back, pretending to be seriously injured. Heifeng waited until Dakui climbed steadily, then stood up with a shudder. Heifeng did not go south again, but He turned around and walked back the way he came. Dakui couldn't help but marvel in his heart, this Heifeng was indeed smart, he was going to be sent back to the Hanzhong County Yamen.
At first Heifeng moved very slowly, but then he slowly picked up speed. Although he was on horseback, Dakui did not feel very bumpy. The horse was even more stable than Hongyun.
Originally, Hei Feng had not gone far out of Hanzhong County, but Hei Feng rushed back to the county government office before it was time to drink tea. The officer on duty at the government office gate was shocked when he saw Hei Feng and Dakui on his horse, and the squad leader turned around and rushed in. Yamen. Not long after, Xia Qingzhong hurriedly came out of the gate to greet him. Everyone helped Da Kui off his horse and carried him into the Yamen.
Heifeng stood outside the door and waited. It took half an hour before he saw Da Kui coming out in high spirits. Da Kui was followed by two servants. The servants were holding the things they had prepared. Saddles and bits.
Heifeng looked at the two servants of the county government warily. Dakui laughed and walked over and hugged Heifeng's neck. He gently patted the horse's neck and whispered: "If you don't follow me to travel to three mountains and five mountains, wouldn't it be nothing?" Is it because of your leg strength?" The horse and man were intimate for a moment, and Dakui saddled Hei Feng with his own hands, but did not do anything when putting on the bit.
After everything was tidied up, Da Kui was very fond of seeing Hei Feng again. At this time, Xia Qingzhong led all the officials from the county government out of the gate, and Da Kui formally left.
At this moment, Dakui's freshly dressed and angry horse showed off his heroic figure. The luggage was no longer a burden, but was bundled into a bundle and hung on the saddle. Dakui galloped southward, and the black wind lived up to its name. His body was like an arrow with four hooves. Flying, he rushed out of Hanzhong County in the blink of an eye. Dakui found the feeling of galloping again and couldn't help but be elated.
After traveling south for a while, they turned to the southeast and arrived at the border of Xiangyang at noon the next day. Hanzhong was nearly a thousand miles away from Xiangyang, and it took just half a day and one night to reach the end of the land. Dakui couldn't help but marvel, Black Wind was indeed a peerless breed.
In order not to disturb the Xiangyang government, Dakui found an inn to stay. After resting for a day, he headed south early the next morning. He passed by De'an Mansion and rushed straight to Anqing. As long as he reached Anqing Mansion and then went down the river, he could return in less than two days. The capital was Yingtian. But Dakui was anxious and did not take a boat when he arrived in Anqing. Instead, he crossed the Yangtze River to Huizhou Prefecture and headed east by land.
It takes two days by boat, but only one day by land. Even if the boat rides hundreds of miles a day on the strength of the water, it may not be as fast as Black Wind. On the way from Huizhou to Yingtian, Dakui saw a large number of soldiers. Horses are mobilized. It seems that the imperial court is mobilizing troops and generals in preparation for another northern expedition. In other words, Lanzhou's urgent letter has been sent to the Privy Council, and Emperor Taizu has already begun to take action.
After another day of travel, Da Kui returned to the capital Yingtian at dusk. The first thing he had to do now was to report to the Ministry of Rites, and then he would meet with Emperor Taizu to report the military situation in Lanzhou. The moment he entered the city, Da Kui just
It feels like a lifetime ago. Everything is so familiar yet a little strange.
The Libu Yamen is located in the west of the imperial city. After Da Kui entered the city through Xihua Gate, he went straight to the Libu Yamen. Normally, there is no need for Da Kui to go there in person for this kind of thing, but at this moment, Da Kui was alone, so he had to do even small things personally.
