Chapter 125: Poison Soldier Jia Xu

A black lion-maned beast ran towards the pasture like lightning.

The speed was very fast, as if flying against the ground, and when there were hundreds of steps away, a roar was made.

The sound was like a lion's roar, which frightened the horses.

Wang Ji couldn't help but scream and almost fell off the shaft. Fortunately, Dong Tie held down the war horse tightly and comforted it repeatedly, which calmed the war horse.

Never seen such a scene.

A horse can make such a terrifying sound, and it can also make all war horses frighten and restless.

Dong Qi comforted the elephant dragon, kicked off his horse, ran over to face the lion-maned beast, with a happy smile on his face.

The lion-maned beast did not stop and directly collided towards Dong Qi.

Wang Ji couldn't help but scream, "...Be careful!"

Before he finished speaking, the war horse suddenly stopped in front of Dong Qi, raised its front hooves high, and emitted a long and joyful neigh.

Immediately afterwards, Dong Qi suddenly rushed up and hugged the lion mane beast's neck.

His body stepped on the back of the lion-maned beast and shouted loudly: "A Chou, run, run!"

The lion-maned beast was only slightly worse than the elephant dragon. Its strong limbs and shiny black fur made it particularly energetic.

Hearing Dong Qi's shout, the lion-maned beast A Chou hissed again, turned around and ran away.

There was a person dragging him on his body, but he didn't feel uncomfortable at all. One person and one horse were galloping on the grassland, like an arrow leaving the string, and in the blink of an eye it disappeared into the water grass more than half a person tall.

Dian Wei didn't react and couldn't help asking, "Xiao Tie, what kind of horse was that just now?"

Dong Tie said proudly: "Tianma, it is a Tianma that belongs only to the master... According to legend, it is a alien species born from the mate of the dragon horse and the divine beast sac. It can travel thousands of miles a day and eight hundred nights. It is called the lion-maned beast. It is rare to see it in five hundred years."

"ah!"

Dian Wei heard Dong Qi mention the lion-maned beast A Chou, but when he saw it with his own eyes, he still couldn't help but be shocked by the lion-maned beast's divine horse. However, it was the first time Wang Ji heard such a story and saw such a divine horse for the first time.

"Xiao Tie, you just said that they are the descendants of Longma and Wushu?"

Dong Tie smiled, "It's just that there is this statement, and the master doesn't believe it. But it's the truth to see it for five hundred years or even a thousand years. The lion-maned beast has a very aloof temperament and is extremely unsociable. Therefore, it often encounters danger... But all lion-maned beasts that can survive are all the gods selected from thousands of miles away. Once they surrender to others, they will never betray them for the rest of their lives."

"Is that horse called A Chou?"

"Yes!" Dong Tie said seriously: "But you better not call it that. Except for a very small number of people who can call it that, if others call it Ah Chou, they will definitely make it angry. If the lion-maned beast loses its temper, it will be very powerful."

At this time, a group of people ran out from the direction of the ranch, all riding horses.

Dong Tie smiled and said, "Look, people from the ranch are welcomed. Master, let's go over... The master and the lion-maned beast have not met for a year. I'm running, I don't know where to go. Let's go back to the ranch and wait for him."

*******

The Dong Family Ranch, which had been deserted for nearly a year, suddenly became lively.

Many people gathered in the ranch hall, which lacked popularity. The old lady sat in the center, holding Dong Qi's hand, with a smile on her thin face, and her white eyes seemed to be filled with joy, constantly asking Dong Qi.

On one side of the hall was the old man from the Dong family.

Dong Lu, Dong Qi, Pei Yuanshao, Ma Zhen, who arrived at the ranch first, and four or five ranch managers.

He looked at Dong Qi with a smile, Lu Yi... Oh, no, he should be called Dong Lu now, and he felt very satisfied.

Finally, there is no need to worry anymore. The young master is back safely and everything will be beautiful.

only……

Dong Lu glanced at Wang Ji, who was sitting opposite the bottom of the head. That woman looked really like the eldest lady Dong Yu.

The opposite were all new members of the ranch. Dian Wei's brother Dian Wei is now the manager of the ranch.

Dian Wei's family, Liu Wang's family, and Huang Zhong's family who had just arrived at the ranch sat down in a row. Many people, men, women, young and old, suddenly appeared, adding a bit of excitement to the conference hall.

After explaining the situation in detail, the old lady's face was unstable.

After a while, she said loudly: "Okay, fighting and killing are all men's affairs. Today, A Chou's return is really a great thing. Everyone open their stomachs, drink and eat as much as they please. Don't mention annoying things."

A word caused cheers from the people in the conference hall.

Especially those children, led by Dianyou, Dianfu, Dianman, Daya Erya and others all smiled happily.

The wine and food came up, and everyone exchanged cups.

Almost no one noticed that Dong Qi helped the old lady and quietly left the conference hall while the banquet was in full swing.

It's almost! No one has discovered it.

Wang Ji, who was sitting at the bottom of the head, and Dong Lu, opposite Wang Ji, all noticed this. But no one said it.

At the same time, Dong Tie also quietly withdrew from the conference hall with Dong Qi.

He helped the old lady leave the conference hall, and the ranch mansion now became much larger than before.

The house covers an area of ​​about ten acres and is located in the center of the pasture. The pavilions and towers built inside are even more gorgeous than the old houses in Lintao. Most of the people living in the house are core members of the pasture. Of course, there are also recruited guards. There are more than ten acres of open land in the northwest corner of the house. A camp was built against the stream and the hills.

It's going to be a camp!

As the most mysterious department in the ranch, hundreds of Baima Qiang people are responsible for guarding them on weekdays. Without the old lady's warrant, even Dong Lu cannot enter.

This is what Dong Qi told the old lady before leaving.

The general who is to be the camp is Master Pu. The chief general who is responsible for protecting the general is Teng Lier of Baima Qiang.

This woman is very capable and manages the things she warned in an orderly manner. Even the old lady said that she has the talent of a general.

Pu Yuan had left the ranch and traveled around.

Dong Qi did not ask too much about this matter. He believed that when Pu Yuan finished his studies, he would naturally come back.

He helped the old lady through the corridor and walked into a small courtyard. At the entrance of the courtyard, there were several trolls trained by Cheng Fang to take care of him. When he saw Dong Qi and the old lady, several trolls bowed and saluted. Then he stood silently in the original place. The only change was that their eyes were sharper, and they looked around vigilantly, observing the movements around the courtyard.

This is the old lady's residence. After entering, Dong Qi helped the old lady sit down.

"A Chou, your sharpness is a bit too revealing!"

The old lady said straight to the point: "Although you have to be forced, if you are too sharp, you will definitely be plotted against."

Dong Qi sat down next to the old lady, "Grandma, it's not that I want to show off. But sometimes, I can't help myself."

"Haha, I know this."

The old lady gently stroked Dong Qi's head, "I originally wanted to make you a surprise soldier in our Dong family, but now it seems unlikely. But it's okay. If you stand up now, it will be of no benefit to the future."

"grandmother……"

"I actually heard about your experience this year. Let's not talk about the past. It's better to look forward. I took a look a few days ago, but the hexagram I got was auspicious and auspicious. This kind of hexagram is very rare, so you must be more careful in the future. Think twice before doing everything, and don't be reckless again."

Dong Qi knew that grandma had a very good skill, which was to tell fortunes.

The ancient art of yarrow-dipating is almost lost after 1,800 years. Few people can understand the essence of it.

However, in this era, the method of occupying yarrows was still very popular.

At least grandma can be considered a good fortune.

"A Chou has recorded it!"

The old lady took a sip of water and suddenly said, "There are more and more people in the ranch, so you need to work harder. Those old people who have worked for us for many years must be comforted and should not let their hearts be chilled just because of the arrival of newcomers."

Dong Qi nodded, "This grandson is a good deal."

"I heard you brought back a woman?"

“Yeah…yes.”

"Have you found out the origin clearly?" The old lady said slowly: "The world is chaotic, so you must be more cautious. It is best to find out the origin of the woman and send someone to look at her more... If there is any problem, you must not be merciful."

Dong Qi said: "The child understands... the woman defends herself and it will not be too difficult to investigate. The grandson will send someone to inquire as soon as possible. Grandma, that woman... looks like a big sister. If there is no danger, keep her, okay?"

"Like a big girl?"

The old lady sighed, as if she understood something, "Well, I'll leave this matter to you. Anyway, you have to be careful. Grandma believes that you can handle these things well... but I still want to remind you not to trust others easily."

"The grandson understands!"

The grandparents and grandson chatted for a long time, and it was not until the old lady was tired that Dong Qi said goodbye and left.

He didn't go back to the conference hall, walked slowly with his hands behind his back for a while, and suddenly stopped, "Xiao Tie, come out."

"Owner!"

Dong Qi laughed, "This is our family, you don't have to be so nervous. Why not drink with everyone?"

Dong Tie bowed and said, "Where should Xiao Tie be, Xiao Tie is the shadow of the master. How can you leave for a moment? When the eldest lady asked Xiao Tie to follow the master, she said that she should follow the master well, Xiao Tie would not dare to forget."

"Just just say it casually, don't be so serious."

Dong Qi raised his head and looked at the night sky. The night in the pasture is beautiful, the moon is bright, the stars are shining, and there is a tranquility.

"Let me have a walk... I'm leaving home for a year in a blink of an eye. I really want to know what the ranch looks like today."

"Here!"

The two of them came to the horse shed, took out two horses casually, and slowly left the mansion.
