1342. Glacier Farm (3/5)

The Icelanders are proud of their Icelandic horses.

In the old Norwegian mythology, the mount of the gods was an Icelandic horse with 8 legs and a thousand miles apart. In many club logos in Iceland use this image of a horse.

In modern legendary stories, Icelandic horses often appear.

Iceland has been attacked by pirates in modern history. In the battle for islands, Icelandic horses are the best companions of the knights. Until now, they have maintained the tradition of heroes dying and burying them with Icelandic horses.

For centuries, Icelandic horses have been the main means of transportation and agricultural livestock in the local area. However, since 19o4, Icelandic horses were replaced by cars and gradually lost their place of use.

Fortunately, in the same year, some horse lovers established the Icelandic Horse Association, which retained their bloodline well.

Today, the use of Iceland horses is riding and racing. The only agricultural purpose is that in the annual sheep pen competition, farmers ride horses and sheep on highland pastures.

During the visit by Wang Bo and others, there was a horse-riding sheep performing, but it was an appetizer at the beginning and two girls performed equestrianism.

The two girls had a beer mug in their hands, filled with beer, and the foam was always on par with the mouth of the mug.

Then they got on the horse and took the beer mugs, held the mugs and started the equestrian performance.

During the whole process, no drop of wine was spilled out of the beer glass, which shows how stable the two girls' physical balance and the horse's pace.

At the end of the ten-minute show, the two girls rode to the crowd and gave the beer to the two tourists.

Wang Bo and others were the only yellow people among these tourists, so a little girl with a golden look gave him a glass of beer.

"I will give you the good wine of the harvest, and may God bless you to keep harvesting in the future." The little girl's mouth is very sweet.

Wang Bo took a red Chinese knot on the doll swagger and gave it to the girl, saying, "I hope our gods will bless you with higher equestrian skills, and you will also be more and more beautiful."

The little girl smiled happily when she got the bow. She was about fourteen or fifteen years old, and when the girl was innocent, she ran to show off to another girl.

No one cared about the two horses at the moment. They looked at each other and rushed together and started to work together.

A tourist exclaimed: "Is this a performance project?"

A tour guide said in a daze: "No, this is not, but Fasces are gentle and they generally don't fight."

Fassi is the nickname of the locals for Icelandic horses, meaning 'obvious mane' because this horse has thick and slender mane.

They were indeed docile, and the two girls hurried over and reached out to hold their reins, and the two horses became quiet.

Wang Bo made the girls sweat. The shortness of the Icelandic horse is relatively common. After all, it is a large animal. If you accidentally touch them with your hooves, you will at least be seriously injured!

Seeing two girls easily control the Icelandic horse in the fight, he became more interested in this kind of horse.

The tourists took a break and some cowboys came up to perform horse riding and sheep. Wang Bo was not interested. His ranch had more exciting horse riding harnesses, which was the real technical job.

The horse-riding sheep show ended. The tour guide took the tourists to a small fence, where there was a lot of fine sand on the land. The tour guide opened the door and said, "Children are allowed to enter here to perform the sheep throwing exercise."

In this regard, Icelanders are more tough. The sheep-stripping exercise means that children and lambs fall, which is a certain danger, because the child may be stepped on by the sheep when he falls.

However, the feet of these sheep are covered with soft rubber, which is to reduce their ability to move, and to avoid hurting the child when stepping on them.

There were four children in the same journey, two men and two women, but the parents of the three children stopped them and they couldn't get in.

The little loli hummed, rolled up her sleeves and said, "Isn't it just that she fell down this lamb? Look at me!"

Bo's mother quickly grabbed her: "Oh, my aunt, what are you doing?"

Eva shook her head and said, "It's okay, this is very safe. If Dai'er likes it, let her play."

The little loli walked in, stepped on the fine sand and became familiar with the environment, and then rushed to the lamb and ran away.

The lambs have been trained. They often perform such exercises and have experience. They immediately lower their heads and aim their heads at the little loli, not to be outdone and attack.

At this moment, a crisp eagle cry in the air, followed by a strong wind blew on his face, and the little bird flying in the sky suddenly pierced, stretching out his claws to attack the sheep.

It thought the sheep attacked the little loli and hurried to protect her.

Not only tourists, but also the tour guide and the farmer and cowboys were confused: Where did such a fierce eagle come from?

When Wang Bo heard the eagle cry, he quickly shouted: "Xiaomeng, come back!"

His shouting was timely enough, but Xiao Meng's dive was shocking. He heard Wang Bo's voice not tearing the lamb, but instead cut it and rushed to the ground, then spread his wings and flew towards Lao Wang with strong wind.

"Swish", with a crisp sound, the sand on the ground flew.

Wang Bo hugged Xiaomeng and handed it to Eva. Xiaomeng's voice made a gurgling sound, his eyes were as sharp as a knife, and he stared at the lamb.

The poor lamb was already scared and didn't have to throw the little loli into it, and he fell to his knees in the sand.

The little lamb is so cowardly, and the little loli is not even afraid. She dragged the lamb and shouted, "Get up, I want to knock you down! Get up quickly, fall with me!"

The cowboys had to change to another lamb. Someone approached Eva curiously and looked at Xiao Meng and asked, "What kind of bird is this? Why is it so obedient?"

Eva smiled politely, "This is a mutated falcon, very smart."

Xiao Meng's appearance changed the tourists' attention. No one paid attention to the little loli's fall sheep, and they were all looking at Xiao Meng.

In this way, the fence became lively. The three children took advantage of their parents' attention to Xiao Meng and did not pay attention to him, so they got rid of their hands and ran in, and fought with the little loli against the lamb.

So some hugged their heads and pulled their tails and some even wanted to ride on them. The little lamb was tortured very badly: What about one-on-one? Madan is a bad turn!

What is the difficulty of dealing with a lamb? The four of them ignored the sand on their heads and faces and smiled proudly at their parents.

There is no danger now, and the parents of three children do not dissuade them anymore, but raise their cameras and take pictures.

After the visit, there was also a farmhouse banquet, which was actually a big pot of vegetables, but the banner was pure natural, pollution-free organic vegetables and pure meat, so it was a bit tempting for tourists.

Wang Bo went to find the cowboy and said, "Hello, man, do you have a boss who wants to sell the foal, right? I'm interested."

Upon hearing this, the cowboy nodded and said, "Sir, come with me."
