Volume 15 The winner is the king. Chapter 1161 Ten thousand horses gallop
The mountainous area is quite beautiful, but there are basically no people. Apart from Ma Wencai, Hu You and his group are here for the first time. Hu You listened to it for a while and seemed to hear the sound of a horse running. However, it was not so real, so when Yaya asked, Hu You were not sure.
Among the 100 people Hu You brought this time, there were also masters of horse racing. When Hu You made his moves, they also crawled on the ground, put their ears close to the ground, and listened quietly to the movement. However, they also had no gains.
"Young master, the wild horses are not playing horseshoe, and they are far apart here. I'm afraid it's hard to hear the movement. We might as well go deeper." A soldier said with a thought.
Because this time, it was secretly preserved. When they were outside, everyone called Mr. Hu You instead of the Young Marshal.
Hu You thought this way. The horse's feet that hit the horseshoe are harder, and the sound of stepping on the ground will be crisper and can be transmitted farther. Without the iron horseshoe, it will be heavier. The sound of hitting the mud is not small, but sometimes it is not as good as it is. It is normal to not hear any movement.
This time, Hu You was ready to suffer a little while when he entered the mountain. Although it was good to find it at the beginning, it was acceptable to Hu You. As long as there were wild horses here, you could always find it.
"That's right. Everyone, take a break on the spot and let's go deeper."
Hu You said and turned around and asked Ma Wencai, "Old Ma, where is it going to go in there?"
Hu You's name for Ma Wencai has changed several times in the past two days. It's quite friendly to call Ma Wencai Laoma.
Ma Wencai once came once, but unfortunately he was not a military man and did not have the habit of drawing maps. In addition, there were too many mountains here, so he had to think about it for a while, but he really couldn't remember where it was behind. After recalling for a long time, he could only tell Hu You that there was still a mountain on the other side of the mountain. Hu You was speechless.
After a while of rest, everyone continued to set off on the road. What Ma Wencai said was really good. The other side of the mountain was really mountain. Fortunately, the mountain was not very big, and there was no big problem whether it was to turn over or go around.
"Young Master, there seems to be a valley behind the mountain." Hu You had a geography expert around him. By looking at the trend of the mountain, you can roughly guess the geographical situation behind.
Of course, this is just a guess. Whether this is the case or not will be known if it is like this will be gone. Hu You was a little depressed. The map of the Mandala Empire was quite good, but there was no detailed map in this area. Otherwise, he wouldn't have to go so hard.
However, Hu You was just depressed. It is understandable why there is no map here. The military role here is almost zero. Hu You have been in charge of Mandala for so many years, and hasn't he sent someone to make a map about this place?
People are very realistic. If they are useless, they will spend their time and energy in useless places. If Ma Wen hadn't discovered that there were wild horses here, Hu You wouldn't know when it would take to step into this land.
Hu You thought for a while and said, "The valley is not important. There are so many mountains here, so there will naturally be no fewer valleys. What we are focusing on is water sources. We need to drink water when we move. As long as we can find the water source, we can find the news."
The soldier had some effort, but behind the hill was a valley. Unfortunately, there was no water source here. Not only did he have no water source, but there were very few grasses and there were stones everywhere, which was not suitable for horses to live.
At this time, the sky was getting darker, and Hu You and his group did not gain anything on the first day.
"Young Master, I have really seen wild horses here, but I just can't remember where they are. But if I can see that place again, I will definitely recognize it."
It was only when Ma Wen found Hu You when he was camping. He was a little nervous about what he had discovered today. Although Hu You said that no matter whether he could find a horse, he would give him some money. However, it is common for the soldiers to turn against each other. If they not only don’t give it, or if they don’t give it to him, but not money, but knife, then his life would be in danger.
This is not impossible. In Ma Wencai's opinion, Hu You is so young and his status in the military will not be very high. If he doesn't take the initiative to suppress him, Hu You will not be able to protect him even if he wants to protect him.
The more Ma Wen thought about it, the more scared he became. He regretted his big mouth now. If he hadn't been talking nonsense in the market, he would have been doing his own small business now, so how could he have come to this place?
Hu You patted Ma Wencai and smiled and said, "Caima, let me ask you, how many days did you find a wild horse when you entered the mountain?"
This Ma Wen remembered it very clearly and answered: "On the fourth day, I discovered it on the morning of the fourth day. I wanted to chase after it, but unfortunately I couldn't catch it."
"That's not it. You've been walking for four days before you realize that we've been walking for only one day now, and we're far away. I'm not in a hurry, why are you anxious? Don't think so much, let's get a cup of the camp later. The scenery here is quite beautiful, I really can't find it, so let's play."
If Ma Wencai knew Hu You’s true identity, this sentence would be enough for him to sit on the ground. Although he didn’t know that Hu You said he was the young commander of the Immortal Bird Legion, Hu You said such words enough to make him feel at ease.
The next morning, everyone continued to set off. Although Ma Wencai couldn't tell a specific place, he still remembered the general direction, which saved Hu's worries a lot. Otherwise, if he had only one hundred people, he would have to find this forest for less than a year, and it would have to be half a year.
"I remember, there is a pool here!" It was almost noon that Ma Wen suddenly shouted happily.
"Old Ma, is there really a pool over there?" Hu You was also in a hurry. Although the scenery here is beautiful, after watching it for two days, the attraction has been greatly reduced. The ability to discover the wild horse one day earlier and leave here one day earlier has gradually surpassed the scenery here.
"Yes, I can be sure there is a pool over there. That time, my kettle broke a hole. If I hadn't discovered that pool, I would have no water to drink. Just..."
"It's just something." Hu You frowned. It's not a good thing to talk about, but it's not a good thing. What's going to follow after that."
"It's just that road is not that easy to walk, there are many poisonous snakes." Ma Wencai recalled that experience, and his little face turned a little white.
He dared to run into the mountains alone to beat the wolf, but that was not bad. But whenever he thought of that incident of entering the snake area, he felt scared.
The night passed so peacefully, without snakes, horses, and nothing was seen. Although Hu You thought this was quite strange, he was too lazy to think about it more. Isn’t it better? It would save you from encountering it.
After breakfast, a soldier reported to Hu You that the grass on the road ahead began to increase and the terrain was flat. I believe that if there were indeed wild horses, they should not be too far away.
"Yeah, I remember it too. It's not too far away, it's nearby." Ma Wencai was scared that night, and many memories were confused. He was revisiting the old place, and he found many memories again.
Hu You laughed and scolded: "You are really a failure, you only remember everything after someone found out."
Ma Wencai giggled. He looked at Hu You with a little difference than the day before yesterday. He didn't believe there were no poisonous snakes here, but he didn't see any of them last night. He thought about it and explained this matter to himself when he thought of a legend. Ma Wencai felt that Hu You was the legendary magistrate who retreated ten miles away from the poisonous snake.
Boom boom boom boom...
While talking, a sound of thunder suddenly sounded in the distance. Hu You was stunned and jumped up in surprise. This time, there was no need to lie on the ground and listen to it. It was obvious that the sound of thousands of horses galloping.
"Young master, there are really wild horses." The soldiers all showed surprise. Although they had not seen the herd of horses yet, the sound was enough to prove everything.
It was not until this time that Hu You confirmed that the sound he heard yesterday was the sound of a horse running. No wonder it could be so far away, there are really many horses here.
"Xiaobai, go and have a look." Yaya reacted the fastest, slapped Xiaobai's head and shouted in a sweet voice.
The wolf is the king of the mountains and forests, and Xiaobai is the king of the wolf. To be honest, this is its territory. Here, its energy exceeds that of the soldiers, or even Hu You.
Xiaobai has been following Yaya for more than ten years, and naturally knows what Yaya means. It growled lowly, as if it was responding, and there was no shadow in the blink of an eye.
Hu You was also very clear about Xiaobai's ability, so he was not in a hurry. He even asked the soldiers to set up camp and waited for Xiaobai to come back. When things developed to this point, Ma Wencai was basically useless. Xiaobai could bring back all the information they needed.
Xiaobai went there for a long time and didn't come back until noon. Seeing its wolf head tilted up high, he knew without asking that he must have discovered it.
"Do you want to take a rest?" Hu You threw a piece of raw meat to Xiaobai. Although it also ate cooked food, it likes to eat raw food even more.
Xiaobai took the piece of meat in a few bites, glanced at Hu You, ignored Hu You, and jogged casually in the direction he had just returned.
Hu You complained to Yaya unhappily: "That Xiaobai dares to show my face."
Yaya giggled and said, "I deserve it. Who told you to underestimate Xiaobai? Let me tell you, let alone one morning, Xiaobai can run at high speed for one day in a row, without any problems."
Yaya's words were not bragging. When Hu You disappeared, Yaya had led soldiers on the battlefield. At that time, Xiaobai kept running with Yaya's horse. Even if it ran for a day, it would not breathe.
"Come on, I know your Xiaobai is so powerful. Let's go and see what Xiaobai has found."
Xiaobai's ability is much stronger than Ma Wencai. With it leading the way in front, Hu You and his group were not afraid of going to the wrong way. When the sun was about to set, they came to another valley.
"It's so beautiful!" Hu You took a deep breath and said with a refreshing look.
There are mountains and water, and the most important thing is that there are nearly 10,000 wild horses. It is strange that it is not beautiful.
"I just said, I'm not lying to anyone." Ma Wencai also breathed a sigh of relief. Finding the wild horse means that his bounty cannot be escaped. Nearly 10,000 horses, so the bounty shouldn't be too small.
"Dad, there are so many horses, we only have more than one hundred people, can we catch so many?"
After Yaya was happy, she became worried again. She thought it was just a few hundred and a thousand horses, and one hundred people came, and each of them caught seven or eight. But there were nearly ten thousand horses here, and each person was divided into 100,000 horses, which was a bit difficult.
Hu You laughed loudly after hearing Yaya's words: "I thought you were very smart, so why would you become stupid? We don't need to catch all these horses. As long as we catch the first horses, we can let them all follow us obediently.
Through Hu You's explanation, Hu You realized that the wild horses, like the army, had a leader. Among the wild horses, this leader is called the horse king, also known as the horse king. As long as the horse king is conquered, all the horses will not be able to escape.
Xiaobai listened to Hu You's explanation and rolled his eyes. It was uneasy. Why did he take a group of horses back when he found it? When he found it, he only brought it back one. If Hu You brought all the wolves under him back then, it wouldn't have to run away in person now. If there were any roars, the wolf cubs below would naturally do it for it.
Xiaobai has lived for hundreds of years and is well aware of human nature, but he doesn't think about it. If Hu You brings all his subordinates back to the army, what will happen? I'm afraid the military camp has turned into a wolf's nest.
It took only three days to find the horse tribute, and Hu You was still very happy. However, even though he was happy, Hu Youping did not take any action immediately. What he needs to do now is to observe carefully and find out the horse king among them.
Someone said: Then you still have to look for it, of course, which horse is the tallest and largest, that horse.
This is a big mistake. The horse king is not about being big but about being bloody, just like Xiaobai, the night wolf. When Hu You caught it, it was just a medium-sized figure among the wolf pack.
"Xiaobai, do you want to perform again this time?" Hu You laughed at Xiaobai. Don't let it go if you can use it. Isn't it easy to borrow Xiaobai, the wolf king, to find the horse king?
Xiaobai rolled his eyes and was about to show something, but suddenly the hair on his body stood up. At the same time, the smile on Hu You's face froze, and a chill instantly passed through his heart!
