Chapter 4 The White Horse and the Dark Horse

In order to prolong the life of the man in the bucket, Chen Fei had to collect more than 50 mountain grasses every week, which means that he needed to surround the mountain under his feet and up and down many times. This is not a simple task. In such a deserted mountain, there are beasts and poisonous insects, and every time he goes up the mountain, it may be a journey of death.

It was already very late today. The reason why he had to go up the mountain was that he didn't want to stay at home. He quickly climbed up the mountainside, his movements were as quick as a monkey.

The clouds are deep and the moon is hidden, and the cold wind is biting. Chen Fei looked at the open fields and was not ready to move forward anymore. He lay down on the edge of the mountainside and raised fire with the broken leaves. Most animals are afraid of fire. Some are not afraid of fire. They must be more powerful than animals. They must not be able to deal with it. Therefore, Chen Fei chose to rest on the edge of the cliff. The terrain here is not high. If he encounters a deadly danger, he can jump down and fall to death.

After going up the mountain for many years, Chen Fei has been very experienced and has no problem with self-confidence. He hugged the hard rock and fell asleep.

...

Seven days later, on the winding and rugged village road, two boys of similar figures met again. The difference was that before coming, Chen Fei took a shower and changed into a clean dress with the least patches.

"I didn't expect that you are quite handsome." Bai Yu smiled and looked him up and down.

Chen Fei blushed and walked in short, "I feel sorry for entering and leaving Shao Mansion with poor spirits.

"It seems earlier today, I will take you around the yard."

"Let's go to your mother's side first. For her, it will be too late."

“That’s true.”

Chen Fei had an amazing memory. With Bai Yu, he found Shao’s mother’s room effortlessly. What surprised him was that the door was actually hidden.

"Mother." Bai Yu knocked on the door, but did not stop and stepped in.

Chen Fei followed him in, the screen had withdrawn, and he successfully met Shao's mother.

The dignified beautiful woman sat alone on the large and soft couch in the sitting position of her wife waiting for her husband, and her hands were tightly tucked together until she saw Chen Fei with her own eyes. She could meet her, and how much she expected her to achieve for the only doctor who could save her life.

Chen Fei responded with a light smile and said, "You have been waiting for a long time."

Unable to hide his excitement, Shao's mother stood up hard and said, "It's great that you can come."

"Don't force it, don't force it, please sit here." The same conditioning method as last time, after a while, Shen Fei's forehead was covered with sweat beads. He put away the needle and wiped it gently with his sleeve, and said, "Okay, how do you feel."

"It feels like I'm ten years younger."

Shao Baiyu looked at his mother in surprise and joy. The two needles made the dying woman shine with new brilliance. It was incredible.

Chen Fei nodded and said, "It's good if it's effective."

"Bai Yu, why are you still standing there? Take out the rewards. Oh, by the way, go and wake up your fifth sister-in-law and let him brew the best tea in the house. What are you doing? Go quickly." A person with bright eyes will never feel the sorrow in the hearts of the blind. Similarly, when a patient with a serious illness is pulled back from the brink of death, the excitement in his heart is something that outsiders can never understand. Shao's mother, who has always been self-reliant, is excited like a child at this moment, and she can't stop urging Bai Yu, "No, no, no, wait for these, take out the mirror first..."

Chen Fei was also happy when he looked at Shao's mother. He had no father or mother since childhood and could barely survive. When he met a medicine man at the age of eight, his life had come to a turning point. However, the medicine man was incurable terminal illness and had to take good care of himself. Therefore, he had never felt the care of his parents almost since he was remembered.

Looking at Shao Baiyu and his mother, I couldn't help but feel envious.

Although Bai Yu was equally happy, he was not panicked. He took out a full bag of silver from the depths of his long sleeves and presented it with both hands: "Last time after you left, my mother repeatedly complained that I was not sincere, so I prepared more this time."

Chen Fei didn't need to open it, so he knew the number here, probably more than ten times the first time, and pushed it and said: "Just the same as last time, just thirty taels of silver."

"We, mother and son, have a certain understanding, I hope you will accept it."

"I am a doctor, and saving people is a duty. How much money is charged depends on the difficulty of the rescue, not the status of the patient. It is really unfair to give me this money."

"Doctor Shen, I know you are a good doctor and a good person. I can understand that you practice medicine without seeking fame and not being greedy for money. However, please think about a patient who is struggling on the line of life and death. What can make me feel more happy and at ease than thanking my life-savior."

"this……"

"Please be sure to accept it." Shao's mother held Chen Fei's hands and wrapped his rough and cold little hands with the heavy bag of silver. "Also, I really want to recognize you, my godson."

Chen Fei was stunned for a moment, shook his head, pulled out his hands and said, "I have accepted the money, but I really can't obey my destiny. It's not that I don't know what to do, but I really have my own difficulties. I hope you can forgive me."

"I can understand where, where, I have something to say. Put away the silver first."

"All right."

...

Leaving Shao's mother's room, Bai Yu led Chen Fei around the yard and then went to the stable. When King Bai Han saw the little master, he raised his front hooves happily. The horses leaned over one after another, as if responding to the horse king's cheerful roar.

The stables are generally equipped with partitions to prevent fighting and promiscuous breeding between stallions. Shao Baiyu deliberately removed the partitions, one to make the horses live more comfortable, and the other is because there is a unique horse king like Bai Han who manages everything.

Chen Fei noticed that when most of the horses surrounded him, a black horse rubbed his four hooves hard on the spot. It looked very lonely and arrogant. He straightened his neck and didn't even want to look at him. Chen Fei was a little surprised and couldn't help but walk over.

"Hmph." The black horse panted and paid attention to him with his aftertaste.

Chen Fei felt the hostility on its body and became cautious. But he still groped forward. "Ye'er, Ye'er." The horse made a threatening scream, shook his horse's hair and pointed it at him.

"Be careful." Shao Baiyu stopped Chen Fei from further movements, "The rear hooves are the most powerful weapon of the horse. He is facing you with his butt, which is a sign of attack."

"That's it." Chen Fei looked at it in a flash, "It's very strong."

"It is called Mo Yu, it is a wild horse. It is said that when it was locked by a trap, it still resisted desperately and bit the trap made of pig iron. Unfortunately, it was too serious and was finally caught. When I saw it, it was already dying. It looked pitiful, so I bought it and didn't treat it much. It was really amazing. Its vitality was amazing." Shao Baiyu was also afraid of its fierceness and did not dare to move too much. He walked up and gently touched its body. Seeing that he did not resist, he gradually let go. "After all, the wild horse is a wild horse, and it is hard to train. He is arrogant in the stable, and even the Bai Han King is a little afraid. The entire Shao Mansion is me. As long as the others are close to each other, they will be attacked."

"I think it doesn't want to get close to these horses, but it can't let it go." Chen Fei observed the other party carefully at a safe distance, "Although the fur color is not as pure as other horses, its body is stronger and its outline is more beautiful. It's such a good horse, and its footwork must be very fast."

"You know horses too?"

"I used to be a horse boy for a month."

"That should be understood. I advise you not to challenge it. This is very dangerous. Even if you subdue it, it may not be obedient. After all, it is wild and difficult to tame."

"I understand." Chen Fei thought, "In this way, let's go out first and secretly watch outside, okay?"

"Okay, I have time anyway." Shao Baiyu patted Mo Yu's neck and walked out of the stable with Chen Fei. When he left, the two deliberately made a lot of noise, then sneaked back secretly, hid behind the haystack, and looked through the fence. The horses dispersed one after another, avoiding Mo Yu from afar, not getting close to it, nor looking at it. Mo Yu was too lazy to look at them, so he lowered his head, took a few sips of cold water "gudu" and then raised his head and screamed at the sky.

There was a mess of hooves in the stable, and the horses were shocked and desperately approached King Bai Han and squeezed into a ball.

Mo Yu grinned, as if she was laughing at her.

King Bai Han looked at it coldly. He never welcomed this foreign guest, but he did not dare to attack rashly because the other party had wildness that he did not have. Spirituality was born, but wildness was trained after all. For madmen, even warriors who were several stages higher than him, they were unwilling to provoke them at will, because when you were still fighting with him with bare hands, the other party might have put the knife on your neck.

King Bai Han secretly observed it for a long time, and the mare in the circle seemed to be gradually accustomed to the crazy aura of this "wild horse". Sometimes, they would take the initiative to approach it. This is not a good phenomenon, especially for him, who is the horse king.

King Bai Han was determined to teach it a lesson, so he took a light and noble step by step, and walked straight towards Moyu. Moyu is a wild horse, and it is common to compete with other stallions on the grassland for mating rights, so it naturally knows the meaning of this action, which is sensitive.

Ben disdained to confuse with such domestic animals, and groaned disdainfully, raised his body and walked forward.

Two horses with a strong and sturdy temperament are not inferior to lions, rubbed their bodies against each other, gently swaying their necks to collide with each other, as if they were completing an ancient ritual before the battle.

Then, they retreated one after another and aimed their butts at each other.

"It's broken, they are going to fight." Shao Baiyu clenched his fists and wanted to get up, but was stopped by Chen Fei.

"Bai Yu, I'll give you this bag of silver." Chen Fei grabbed Bai Yu's arm with one hand and stuffed the silver with the other hand.

"What to do?" Bai Yu was surprised.

"Moyu, I want it and sell it to me."

"That wild horse...you're right, it won't be tamed."

"I didn't want to tame him, I just wanted to release it back to nature."

"Are you crazy? Why?"

"Because, that's its desire..."

"You." Bai Yu stared at the other person with his eyes fixed on his face, as if he was looking at a monster, "You are sure."

"Isn't the money enough?"

"If you want it, I'll give it to you. It's just your purpose, which really surprised me."

"Nothing, I just think that horse is really pitiful."
