The Lord who use immortals as food

The next day, as night fell, the county government office came.

Pei Ye stood by the stone table and watched Master Chang and Master Huang going through his clearly visible luggage.

"How can you bring only these two pieces of clothing? What if it rains?" Master Huang frowned, "You also need to bring a pair of straw sandals for shoes."

Chang Zhiyuan nodded and said: "And at least bring a bamboo hat - I'll get it for you."

"Where are the copper coins? Why do you only bring silver? Do you also want to give someone a piece of silver when you have a cup of tea on the way?"

"Daggers and flints. You must have these - you didn't bring them with you?"

Master Huang raised his eyes and glanced at him, slapped the dagger on his waist on the table, and turned towards the woodshed.

Pei Ye touched his head and looked at the package that had doubled in size in less than a quarter of an hour. When he looked up, he saw Master Huang coming back with a piece of cold light in his hand, and said in surprise: "Don't you need the axe?"

"There are many times when chopping is needed in the mountains and forests." Master Huang put the ax next to the dagger.

At this time, Chang Zhiyuan came back with a bamboo hat, patted Pei Ye and said, "Okay, we'll prepare it for you here. You can go pick a horse in the back."

Pei Ye's eyes lit up, this was exactly what he was looking forward to today.

"good!"

Ever since he learned to ride a horse, Pei Ye has always wanted to have a horse of his own. But firstly, horses are too expensive. Buying one in a small town costs nearly twenty taels, not to mention the cost of raising it. Secondly, since he doesn't leave the small town, raising horses is useless.

Now the horses that Chang Zhiyuan asked him to pick were all owned by the public, and he could not take them away at will. Chang Zhiyuan used the house as a reward to replace one, and he made up for the extra three or four taels by himself. Up, now comes the horse-picking section.

Pei Ye walked briskly to the backyard, where the groom was waiting by the stable.

Four big horses are lined up, brown, brown, red and yellow.

"There are two horses here at Yamen, and there are five horses over at Wubei. I picked two good ones and brought them over to you." The groom said, "You can take a look."

"."

Pei Ye felt that he didn't need to look any further.

As soon as he entered the backyard, his eyes were already attracted by the maroon colt on the second left that was half a head taller than the other three.

Pei Ye walked up to the horse and patted it gently.

The groom chuckled: "Hey, I knew it."

Pei Ye also smiled, turned around and said, "Uncle, can this one work?"

"Okay, if there's any problem, I brought it here to pick it out for you." The groom said, "But I have to make it clear to you. I know you are interested in its majesty, but if you want to run to the city, it's better to choose another one. match."

He patted the horse's butt next to him.

Pei Ye took a look and saw that this horse was yellow and white, the shortest among the four, and had a somewhat dull temperament. It was not as proud as the jujube horse, which was still chewing grass with its head down all the time.

Pei Ye was not very happy, so she pursed her lips and said, "I still want that one."

"Okay." The groom smiled, "That horse is really interesting."

He led the maroon horse in front of Pei Ye. Pei Ye looked up and down. The horse's coat was brown and red, like a ball of autumn leaves, and its mane and long tail were even redder, like a flame burning on the leaves. .

Its pair of black eyes did not lower its head to look at the new owner in front of it. Instead, it raised its head or looked left and right. Its hooves restlessly touched the ground, quite eager to try.

Pei Ye became more and more satisfied as he watched, nodded and said, "That's it!"

"Okay." I don't know why the groom was quite satisfied, "Then I'll give Sir Chang two taels of silver in a moment."

"Ah?" Pei Ye glanced at the groom blankly. The groom smiled kindly, took the horse and turned away.

Pei Ye couldn't put it down and walked around the big horse several times before returning to the front yard. At this time, the packages had been rearranged by the two elders and packed neatly.

There are a total of: a large bag that is more than twice the size, a roll of tarpaulin that can be carried on a horse; a sack containing small things such as fire-breaking daggers, and the most important thing - the golden autumn issued by Feng Huai. Martial Arts Qualification Document. Chang Zhiyuan was afraid that he would lose this thing, so he opened two identical ones for him, and put the other one in the belly of the dragon; a filled kettle; a pack of dried meat buns; a sword and a sword box, all tied up With the strap, it can be carried on your back properly.

Following the instructions from the two elders, Pei Ye had a good meal at the county government office, and then Master Huang took the horse and sent him to the city gate with Chang Zhiyuan.

The sky was bright and the autumn air was refreshing. Pei Ye had a good sleep last night and had a full meal this morning. He was in good spirits. At this time, he raised his head and looked south, watching the avenue disappear into the slope.

"Safety comes first in everything." Chang Zhiyuan gently held his wrist, "If you have any questions, you can go to Bai Sibing. He and I have been friends for many years."

"Yeah!" Pei Ye nodded.

Master Huang also patted him: "Go ahead. A good man has ambitions everywhere. He should have seen the world long ago. Wait for more than ten days, and I will take the children to find you."

Chang Zhiyuan nodded: "If I have free time then, I will follow you and have a look."

Pei Ye was surprised: "Huh? You're tired from the journey. Just rest and take care of yourself. I'll bring you good news."

Chang Zhiyuan smiled and shook his head: "I've been tired these past few days. If on weekdays, among the elderly people over 60 in the entire county, who is as strong as me? That's fine."

The old man let go of the young man's wrist: "Let's leave early."

"Yes." Pei Ye took a step back and bowed to say goodbye to the two elders.

He turned over and jumped on the horse, turned around and raised his hands to the two elders, shaking the reins: "Then - ah -"

Pei Ye screamed, and a red dragon seemed to come out from under his crotch, causing his upper body to stagger. Moreover, the body of the dragon was still rising and falling ferociously. The bumps made Pei Ye feel that he was riding not a horse but a horse. A leopard.

He tried his best to adjust his body, and when he turned around, the two elders were already seven or eight feet away, reaching out and looking at him with worried expressions.

"——Let's go!" Pei Ye waved and shouted the second half of the sentence, turned around and held the reins, bent his knees in stirrups, and with two ups and downs, his body blended into the rhythm of the horse.

Really fast.

Pei Ye has never ridden such a fast horse, nor has he ever ridden such a "sensitive" horse.

Riding other horses is like drawing a bow. You can draw it as full as you apply force, and you can run as fast as you drive it. But riding this horse is like loosening the string. It is a fully charged bow. You only need to loosen your fingers a little. Once, it will eject with a bang.

"What a horse!" Pei Ye shouted excitedly, and when he pinched the horse's belly, the horse's speed reached a new level.

Really fast!

A glancing kestrel, a burning flame.

Why should I give back two taels of silver for such a good horse?

I'm afraid it's because it eats too much and has a strong temper.

But a horse that has traveled a thousand li has plenty of food and is proud, as it should be. The fierce temperament is not the problem of the horses, it is clearly the problem of their charioteers.

Pei Ye thought with satisfaction. His forehead was flying, as if he was riding on a thunderbolt, and the wind was knocked away by them.
