The man replied: "Although this horse has a bad temper, its foot strength is not bad. The little man lives far away, and every time he comes here, he has to buy a lot of goods. It saves a lot of worry to have it on his back."

Hearing this, the bearded man stared his eyes like copper bells, and wailed: "Oh my God!" He pointed at the horse owner, trembling all the time, and said while trembling: "You... .You actually let this kind of horse carry cargo?!"

The owner of the horse was unconvinced, glanced at him and said, "What else can I do? Let it stay at home to grow mold?"

The bearded man slapped the table and was so angry that he couldn't speak.

Feng Xiao blinked and stared blankly at the two of them.

Feng Chen felt uncomfortable from the noise, his ears were buzzing, he frowned and rubbed his temples, and said, "Just sell us the horse, if it doesn't run away, everyone will be happy, if it runs away, we won't let it run away either." I will blame you, just as if we don't have the ability to train this horse."

The horse owner was a little shaken, but he still couldn't make a decision immediately. A pair of cloudy eyes swept over them, and then looked outside the door, his face full of hesitation.

The bearded man immediately hit the iron while it was hot: "Since my grandfather said so, you should sell it. You can't bear to see such a good horse as a burden for a lifetime, can you?"

"Aren't you... really afraid that it will run away?"

The bearded man replied: "Of course I'm not afraid. There is also a fate between the horse and the human. If it really runs away, it can't blame anyone. It can only be blamed for not having this fate. Besides..."

He stretched out his big hand, patted Feng Chen's shoulder hard a few times, and said with a smile: "Our master is not an ordinary person, this horse keeps running like this, maybe it's just to wait for our master! What do you think? Bar?"

Feng Chen was already feeling uncomfortable, and he almost threw up his stomach after being slapped like this. He slapped his bearded hand, suppressing the feeling of irritability in his chest, and said: "We will buy this horse no matter what..."

The bearded man saw that his expression was not very good, afraid that he might say something scary, he immediately interrupted and said, "It doesn't matter how much you want."

The horse owner waved his hands again and again: "It's not about money..."

The waiter who was serving food to a table next to him poked his head over, and interjected: "Old Qi, you just sell it, do you really have the heart to see that horse being used as a mule for the rest of your life? Besides, this Master is not an ordinary person, and horses will never be wronged if they follow him."

Feng Xiao knocked a melon seed and said, "Why is it like marrying a daughter?"

Everyone turned their heads to look at him in unison, and then turned their heads away in unison, without saying a word.

The middle-aged man thought about it for a while, sighed, waved his hand and said, "Forget it, letting it follow me is indeed killing it, so I'll sell it to you."

The bearded man's eyes were full of light, he leaned forward and grabbed the horse owner's hand and shook it vigorously, and asked, "Brother, how much do you want?"

"Twelve."

"Ah?" Everyone thought they heard it wrong, Feng Chen also put down his teacup and looked at him in surprise.

The bearded man said, "Aren't you belittling the horse too much?"

The man scratched his head and laughed a few times: "This horse and people do have a fate. Since we met this time, it can be regarded as fate with you. If it really thinks that it has found a good master, it will be willing to obediently follow you." If you leave, I am also happy for it, and I will take the ten taels of silver as a lottery for me. If it comes back, the ten taels is not too much, and I won't feel too sorry. "

Feng Chen nodded, expressing his understanding.

The bearded man was overjoyed, and a flower almost burst into a smile on his face.

Feng Xiao knocked another melon seed and said, "It's really like marrying a daughter."

No one cares about it.

The bearded man asked, "What's the name of the horse?"

The horse owner replied: "Red dates."

The bearded man clicked his tongue in dissatisfaction, and shook his head: "Why is it called such an ugly name? What a waste of this horse."

"This..." The man scratched his head embarrassingly: "I haven't read any books, and I can't think of a good name. I thought this horse would be sold soon, so I decided to give it a try. I called it by any name, but I didn't expect... to call it until now."

Feng Chen asked: "How long have you raised the horse?"

"Five years."

"Tsk..." The bearded man frowned in distress: "It's been so long, it's too late to change."

Feng Chen said: "Forget it, red dates are just red dates, and it's easy to say. Just wait here, and I'll send someone to give you the money." After speaking, he got up, rubbed his forehead and walked upstairs.

The bearded man had nowhere to express his excitement. Seeing him leave, he sighed in his heart. After sighing twice, he remembered that Feng Xiao was still here, so he immediately turned around to look for him. Feng Xiao was squatting on a chair. He looked at himself, immediately picked up a plate of melon seeds on the table, and rushed out with a "shua", straight up the stairs, and disappeared after two or three times.

The bearded man stared at the stairs resentfully for a while, pursed his mouth in dissatisfaction, turned around and thought of the horse again, immediately grinned to the base of his neck, and happily walked outside the door to look at the horse.

March [-]

In the blink of an eye, I have been away from the country for six days.

The time limit for the assassination has passed, but Feng Chen is not worried about it, anyway, he has already decided to betray Feng Guo, and it is only a matter of time before Feng He wants to kill him.

But what puzzled him was that Feng He's letter from two days ago, even though it had been blood-stained into a piece of bloody paper, could still vaguely make out a few words. Go back to China immediately, don't have any contact with Li Xiruo, he will assign other people to carry out the assassination mission.

This is really unimaginable to the extreme.

Feng Chen wanted to send someone to ask, but the current situation could not allow him to delay any longer. A large number of troops had assembled at the border of the closed country, ready to go at any time, and all problems were imminent.

Feng Chen got up early in the morning and packed his luggage, and when it was almost Chen's hour, two people ran in. Feng Chen recognized them as people from Niling Palace, and one of them handed over a half-moon shape upon seeing Feng Chen. Yupei said: "General Feng, the national teacher asked me to take you to the ferry to the west. There are official ships transporting grain and grass. You can go directly to Wancheng without interrogation. After arriving in Wancheng, you can take other boats to return to the Central Plains. It shortens a lot of time, this jade pendant belongs to the national teacher, and as a token, it proves that what the villain said is true."

Feng Chen took it and saw that it was a piece of suet white jade with a beast engraved on it, with slender limbs and fine scales on its body, like a snake but not a snake, like a leopard but not a leopard.

This is a huge ancient mythical beast named "盄". According to the myths spread in Liguo, this beast is the guardian of Liguo's ancestors.

4000 million years ago, the gods in the sky were feuding with each other, and the world was in chaos. The heaven and the earth collapsed, and the rivers flowed upstream. .But it itself stood there without eating or drinking, standing still, allowing the fragments of the collapsed sky to hit itself, and stood like this for a whole hundred days and nights.In the hundred and one day, when the war finally ceased, it was exhausted and fell to the ground and died. Its huge body turned into the ground, its fur turned into trees, its blood became rivers, and its scales turned into mud.

The surviving Li Guo people have lived on the land it has become for generations, and have multiplied to this day.

Therefore, "盄" has a lofty status in the eyes of the people of Liguo, and the national teachers of Liguo in the past are regarded as the reincarnation of "盄" and guard Liguo for life.

This piece of "盄玉" is used as the certificate of the identity of "Leaving the country's national teacher", and is worn by every national teacher.
