Chapter 107 I Have a Horse
Although these soldiers looked aggressive and well-trained, they chased me wildly, and their formation was still intact and there were quite a few people. The team in front had already chased out of the city, but the team behind had not yet walked out of the city gate.
I have lived so much, this is the first time I have fought with the regular army, but I have no fear at all. Although they look like they are very good at fighting, it will be useless to catch up with me. Their training and equipment are all for the sake of field combat. They are wearing armor, holding bulky big swords and spears in their hands. Even in vests, shorts, and the lightest running shoes, they can't beat me. Moreover, with so many more burdens now, even if I put both hands in my pocket, I can easily throw them several streets away.
What worries me the most are the cavalry. Although they are now blocked in the city gate and have not yet left the city, I just vaguely saw a few horse heads when I glanced back just now, but they should be able to chase them out soon, and the number seems to be quite large.
Although I am very confident in my speed, it is always when compared to the ‘people’. I have no experience in racing against a four-legged horse, and I don’t know if I can win, especially now I am still in the endless wilderness, but I have to run even if I can’t win. I can’t stop and wait for death.
After running forward for a while, the thing that worries me the most finally happened. Behind me was the neighing of war horses, the sound of chaotic horse hooves was heard, and even the ground under my feet felt a significant tremor.
At this time, I didn't care about turning around, but just kept running forward. But after running for a while, I felt the sound of horse hooves behind me getting closer and closer, so I couldn't help but look back and found that I had surpassed most of the horses. Although the cavalry that chased out had surpassed the infantry, there was still a long distance between me, let alone the infantry, and the distance was almost invisible.
But one horse actually beat me. Now it has chased me more than ten meters away. This horse is at least one head taller than an ordinary horse. It is snow-white all over and can't see a single hair, and the fur is shiny. Although I don't know how to look at the horse, I can also tell that it is a good horse.
The person riding on the horse was a man dressed in a silver helmet and armor, and a silver spear in his hand. Except for his thick waist and fierce face, the others were exactly the same as the legendary Zhao Zilong.
After running all the way for so long, I felt a little tired. Moreover, according to the situation in front of me, even if I try hard, I can't run away from this horse. So I deliberately slowed down. I can't beat thousands of troops, but I still have confidence in fighting a general one.
In the blink of an eye, the horse chased me behind me, and a strong wind sounded behind me. I didn't have to look at it and knew that it was someone who started the action immediately. And based on the wind, I could roughly judge that the position where he stabbed me was in my back, and this was the rhythm of stabbing me to death.
This guy is really cruel. He didn't say anything and was about to kill me when he came up. While running, my feet kicked hard on the ground, and his body jumped up to the side. The spear almost stabbed my arm.
The general riding on the horse obviously did not expect the shot to fail, so he was stunned for a moment. He took this opportunity to reach out and grabbed the gun, followed the force he stabbed forward, and pulled the general off the horse, and kicked him in the chest without waiting for his body to fall.
Because it was running rapidly, this kick did not use much power and would not cause much damage, but it kicked the general under the horse's belly, and the horse's hind legs directly stepped on the general's head.
Although the general was wearing a helmet on his head, I heard a "puff" sound, like the sound of a big watermelon being trampled. At the same time, red and white things splashed all over the ground, which looked a little disgusting. Then the general fell to the ground and stopped moving, and even his helmet was trampled.
Originally, I planned to kick him down and then rush up and beat him up, but I never expected that this kick would lead to such a result. I had to silently say in my heart, "You were trampled to death by a horse, not in my hands. Don't come to me after being a ghost."
Losing the general's control, the horse automatically stopped after a few steps, while the cavalry behind him were still chasing here desperately, and smoke and dust rose not far away.
I immediately rushed towards the white horse. Although I had never ridden a horse, I had never eaten pork and hadn't seen a pig run. With my agility, I grabbed the reins and jumped directly to the horse's back. Before I could sit firmly, the horse's front legs flew up, stood up straight, and overturned me to the ground in an instant.
I stood firmly with a backflip, but the horse was not finished. After the front leg landed on the ground, I actually raised my hind leg and kicked me again.
The pursuers behind me were getting closer and closer, and I suddenly became angry. Isn’t it just a horse? I dared to fight with me. I don’t believe that I would not accept you. I instantly avoided the kicking hind legs. Then I took advantage of the moment when the horse closed its legs and jumped onto the horse’s back again. Without waiting for the horse to make resistance, I kicked the horse hard on the chest with my heel.
‘Sigh----’ The horse screamed, and then wanted to repeat the same trick. However, before its front legs could stand off, my fist had already hit its neck hard. The horse was hit with another scream, and then it began to run wildly. While running, it twisted its body violently, trying to throw me off. My legs clamped the horse's belly with force and rode steadily on the horse's back, and no matter how it twisted, it could not succeed.
Unexpectedly, after running for a while, the horse suddenly braked suddenly, and raised its hind legs high. The huge inertia made me pounce forward and rushed directly from the horse's back.
This move really surprised me, but I was not panicked. I grabbed the reins tightly in my hand, fell steadily to the ground, then kicked hard, and instantly rode up again, raised my fist, and punched the horse three times without hesitation.
This time, I finally beat the horse to be honest. After screaming a few times, I started running forward again, but I ran very smoothly and I never dared to twist my body anymore.
I adjusted the horse's head with the reins, controlled the direction of my progress, and let it run along the trade route. I stepped on stirrups, bent my legs slightly, and rode on the horse's back in a half-squat position. This posture is very similar to the squat stance that Uncle Gu had taught me before, and it didn't feel very comfortable. However, I squatted all day long before, and with such a foundation, I didn't feel too uncomfortable. At the same time, I suddenly realized that I guess the origin of the horse stance should be like this, otherwise why not only is the same posture, but the name also contains the word "horse".
Be careful about this horse and beware of it playing tricks again. However, after running for a long time, this situation did not happen, and the horse became more and more stable. It seems that I have really been beaten to be honest. It seems that in similar plots in movies and TV dramas, riders jumped onto the back of the horse, and they will tame it when the horse is tired of running. I have never seen a fight like me.
At this time, I remembered that there were pursuers behind me, so I quickly looked back and saw the distant city wall. The pursuers had long been dumped by me and could not see them. Now they were completely safe. I finally felt completely relieved. This was the benefit of primitive society. There was no wanted order, nor was there online pursuit. Even if it caused a huge chaos, it would be fine. Just walk around this place for the rest of my life.
However, the distance I ran was not far enough now, so I did not slow down and was still running wildly on the horse. After a while of adaptation, I had figured out a little trick. Now I can sit down completely, as long as my body exerted a little force and remained consistent with the ups and downs of the horse's back.
The scenery beside me was moving back rapidly, and all I heard in my ears were the sound of "huh" wind. White clothes were like snow, coming and going like wind, and I was immediately on my sword, and I was happy with my grudges. This is the life I wanted. This scene made me feel excited. I couldn't help but want to find a poem with the word "horse" and "Where is the home in the Qinling Mountains? The snow is surrounded by blue passes by the horses." No, this poem is about the time of trouble, which is completely inconsistent with my current mood. "Five-colored horses, a thousand gold fur, Hu'er will go out to exchange for fine wine." This is even more wrong. This is a horse seller. Li Bai actually exchanged horses for wine. It's really a waste of money.
I remember when I was a child, my grandfather taught me to memorize many ancient poems, but now I can’t remember them all. When I think of my grandfather, I suddenly remembered a poem "I am alone in a foreign land for a stranger, and I miss my relatives more during festivals." I don’t know what happened to my grandparents and parents now? I don’t see anyone living, and I don’t see a corpse when I die. I just disappeared so bizarrely. They must be very sad.
In an instant, my mood was extremely depressed. I rode on the horse silently, letting it run wildly, and I ran all afternoon. When the sun was west, the horse's speed gradually slowed down, and the fur on my body was soaked with sweat. Obviously it was tired, so I stopped quickly.
Jumped out of the horse, took out a large water tank from Qiankun bag, and placed it directly in front of the horse. The sudden appearance of the large water tank scared the horse, and instantly took a few steps back, looked vigilantly for a while, then slowly came over, put his head into the water tank, and drank water in big mouthfuls.
Taking advantage of this skill, I looked around. There was a wilderness surrounded by weeds, and there was a sparse forest in the distance. After the horse drank enough water, I put away the water tank and led the horse to the forest.
