Chapter 363 Horse Racing

Liang Xiao was very surprised......≦......≦Li Guang was nearly fifty years old and his body was so strong? It would be strange if an ordinary person hit him this time, he would not have a concussion.

"General, are you really okay?"

"What can I do?" Li Guang pushed away Liang Xiao's hand and turned over again. "Don't worry, my sky spirit cover is made of iron. Let's go quickly. Otherwise, if you close the city gate, you won't be able to get out."

Liang Xiao laughed loudly and followed the horse. The two of them rushed towards the city gate. After leaving Xuanping Gate, they headed south along the moat and passed Qingming Gate. Outside the Bacheng Gate, Liang Xiao saw Wei Qing and Tu Niuer. Wei Qing was riding a green horse, and there was a child sitting in front of him, which was Huo Qubing.

Huo Qubing opened his big eyes and looked at Liang Xiao intently. Liang Xiao glanced at him and asked Wei Qing with some uncertainty: "Is your son so old?"

Wei Qing smiled. "How could Kang'er be so old? It's my second sister's child who got sick. I heard that you invited me to hunt at night and insisted on following me to see the sound ejaculation technique."

"Huo Qubing?" Liang Xiao was surprised and looked closer. Huo Qubing was very energetic and had some rebellious eyebrows, but there was no sign of a famous general of a generation. At most, it was just a child who was a little sensitive and a little conceited. Seeing Liang Xiao look at him, he widened his eyes and tried hard to look at Liang Xiao.

Liang Xiao was happy and reached out to pinch Huo Qubing's little face. The face of the future famous general is also very tender.

"Oh, it hurts so much!" Huo Qubing shouted, pushed Liang Xiao's hand away, glared at him, and his little face turned red.

"Man, why are you afraid of pain?" Liang Xiao curled his lips and teased him: "Like you, you can only hide at home in the future and go to the battlefield."

"I'm going to the Western Regions, I'm going to Rome." Huo Qubing bit his lip and said loudly: "I'll go further than you."

Liang Xiao crossed his legs, sat on the horse's back, and raised his chin at Huo Qubing. "Boy, you're not a little bit. Can you ride a horse?"

"Of course." Huo Qubing turned his head and begged to look at Wei Qing. Wei Qing smiled bitterly, turned over and dismounted the horse, and handed the reins to Huo Qubing's hands. Huo Qubing clamped his legs and leaned forward, almost lying on the back of the horse. He turned his head and looked at Liang Xiao provocatively, challenging Liang Xiao.

Liang Xiao couldn't help laughing and pulled out the short knife from his waist that was snatched from Gulu Fox. With a light wave, the iron tail of the horsewhip tribe was cut off. Huo Qubing's eyes immediately lit up and he blurted out, "Good knife."

"If you win me, this knife belongs to you." Liang Xiao inserted the knife back to his waist. "If you lose, take off your pants and spank."

Huo Qubing was stunned, blinked his eyes, thought for a while, and gritted his teeth and said, "I won't lose."

Liang Xiao laughed twice and said, "From here to the south wall, there are about 1,500 steps. Whoever arrives first will win, how about it?"

Huo Qubing was a little hesitant. He looked at the short knife around Liang Xiao's waist again, gritted his teeth, and nodded vigorously.

"OK!"

Liang Xiao jumped off his horse and walked to Li Guang. "General, I'm sorry, I can't let you continue to enjoy it."

Since seeing Wei Qing and Li Guang, he has been watching coldly, without saying a word. He glanced at Liang Xiao and curled his lips. "I have no prospects, I even cheated on the little baby." He turned over and dismounted and threw the reins to Liang Xiao.

Huo Qubing was shocked and screamed. "You are cheating, why are you changing your horse?"

Liang Xiao turned over the horse and was proud. "It's not that I was cheating, it's you who made a mistake. You can ask General Li, who belongs to this horse?"

Huo Qubing was stunned. Even though he was young, he knew how fast Liang Xiao's horse was. Although Wei Qing's big green horse was not bad, compared with this famous Dayuan horse, it was not a little bit worse, so there was no chance of winning.

"Can you still bet?" Liang Xiao rode his horse to Huo Qubing and raised his eyebrows. "I'll let you go to a place with one arrow."

"I don't want you to let me go." Huo Qubing shouted in anger: "A man, a real man, once you say something, it's hard to chase you."

"It's a promising future." Liang Xiao waved his hand. "Let's go."

"Let's go!" Huo Qubing waved his whip and whipped his mount. The green horse rushed out, spread his four hooves, and ran quickly along the galloping road. Fortunately, it was too late and there were no people on the road, otherwise he would definitely hit someone. When Wei Qing saw it, he hurriedly said, "A Xiao, this child is so arrogant, please be careful."

Liang Xiao smiled. "Don't worry, Zhongqing." After saying that, he shook the reins lightly, Mingzhu ran forward with a relaxed step. With just a few leaps, he caught up with Huo Qubing and advanced in unison.

Li Guang, Wei Qing and Tu Niuer were dispersed from behind, and the atmosphere was a bit awkward and no one spoke.

Huo Qubing grabbed the horse's mane with both hands, clenched his teeth, his little face was tense, and his eyes were staring at the front, wishing he could fly to the south of the city in one step. Liang Xiao was very relaxed, Mingzhu was tall and his legs were long, and he had a bigger stride, so he didn't need to put in all his strength, so he ran very easily.

"Boy, you can't hold on to the end if you run like this." Liang Xiao ran while teaching Huo Qubing a lesson. "No matter how good the horse is, it cannot run at full speed for a long time. We have to walk 1,500 steps. At your speed, at most half the distance, the horse can't run."

Huo Qubing turned his head and looked at Liang Xiao suspiciously.

"Don't look at me with this kind of eyes. I won't lie to you as a little doll." Liang Xiao said with a shameless look: "I'm worried that you will lose too quickly and I won't feel accomplished."

Huo Qubing snorted, disagreed.

"Have your uncle taught you that hunting is actually a combat exercise?"

Amid the rapid sound of horse hooves, Huo Qubing hesitated for a moment and nodded.

"Then do you know what preparations you need to make to win a battle?"

Huo Qubing was a little distracted and almost fell off the bumpy horse's back. He quickly clamped his legs, stopped paying attention to Liang Xiao, and waved the green horse again, and ran forward wildly. Liang Xiao was not in a hurry, and he didn't even need to wave the whip. Mingzhu ran easily and turned his head and kept blowing the green horse. Nearly halfway, the green horse was already out of breath and sweating. When he teased Mingzhu, it was very helpless, and some heroes were short of breath.

As Liang Xiao said, after five or six hundred steps, the green horse was ineffective and his speed did not decrease significantly. No matter how Huo Qubing waved his whip, he could not surpass Mingzhu. In contrast, Mingzhu was in the best state when he was active, and he was full of energy and ran faster and faster. He easily left Huo Qubing behind.

Before the complete run, Liang Xiao had already secured the victory. Huo Qubing was very anxious and turned the whip backwards and tattooed the horse with the iron pointed tail that was not yet on the whip. The green horse suffered pain and ran wildly, catching up with Mingzhu again.

Liang Xiao frowned when he heard the neighing sounds and horse hooves behind him. He could hear the pain in the neighing sounds, and guessed how Huo Qubing used to force the horse. When fighting against the Huns, they often did this, and even directly chopped the sword in their hands to squeeze out the potential of the war horse.

Doing this can make the horse run faster, but the consequences are also very serious. Generally speaking, the horse is disabled even if it is not dead. So they will not do this unless they have to. Since Huo Qubing knows how to do this, of course he also knows the harm of doing this. For a small competition, he actually made such a ruthless move. At a young age, he is ruthless.

In a moment, Huo Qubing had already chased him. Liang Xiao put away his smile and kicked the horse's belly. Mingzhu understood, raised his head and neighed, spread out his four hooves, and ran with all his might. Within a few steps, Huo Qubing was left behind again. In Huo Qubing's desperate and stubborn eyes, Liang Xiao disappeared into the night, leaving only a blurry back.

Huo Qubing bit his lip tightly and kept poking the green horse with a horse whip. The green horse's buttocks were poked with blood and neighing. It was just that the strength was very different. Although it tried its best, it could not shorten the distance by one point.

When Huo Qubing saw the city wall in the south, Liang Xiao had already got off the horse, stood in the road with his hands behind his back. Mingzhu was walking leisurely, with a special sound of hooves, and he occasionally sniffled. Huo Qubing tied the reins, stretched his face, and glared at Liang Xiao.

"Dropping off the horse!" Liang Xiao reached out and grabbed the reins of the green horse and pulled Huo Qubing down. Huo Qubing was unstable and fell to the ground. He turned over and sat up, furious. "What are you doing?"

"I want to teach you a lesson." Liang Xiao stepped forward, stepped on Huo Qubing's chest, and shouted loudly. "The war horse is not only a horse, but also your comrades-in-arms. It cannot be sacrificed, but it must be sacrificed with value. For an irrelevant game, if you destroy your war horse so much, will you still be stingy with the lives of the warriors when you come to the battlefield?"

"Who said it doesn't matter?" Huo Qubing struggled. "The victory or defeat of this game is related to my honor."

"You are embarrassed because you are stupid, not because you are not trying your best to fight the horse." Liang Xiao heard the sound of horse hooves in the distance getting closer and closer, and squatted down, lowered his voice, but became even more harsh. "A real man, don't shirk your blame or take off his anger. What kind of man do you think you are shirking your responsibility to a war horse?"

Huo Qubing was stunned. Liang Xiao reached out and lifted him up. "Come to count the wounds yourself. How many times did you poke Qingma? How many times did I beat you up on the butt."

Huo Qubing subconsciously covered his butt, with a little more fear in his eyes.

Liang Xiao said in a deep voice: "Do you want me to scold you again in front of your uncle?"

Listening to the sound of horse hooves getting closer and closer, and looking at the torches that were getting brighter, Huo Qubing lowered his head and walked towards the Qing horse. Wei Qing and others rushed to the front. Seeing Huo Qubing covered in dirt, Wei Qing was startled, turned over and dismounted, rushed over, held Huo Qubing in his arms, and looked left and right.

"Did you get sick, did you fall down?"

"No, your nephew is very good at riding." Liang Xiao said with a smile: "Although he lost half a step in the end, it was rare." He rubbed his hands and stared at Huo Qubing fiercely. "How many times should I beat?"

Huo Qubing was furious, broke free from Wei Qing's arms, took the torch from Wei Qing's hand, illuminating the wound of Qingma. When he saw the bloody buttocks of the horse, Wei Qing was shocked. He looked at Liang Xiao, wanted to speak but stopped, and a little helplessness appeared in his eyes.

Liang Xiao smiled but said nothing, but when he looked at Huo Qubing, his eyes were a little cold. Huo Qubing didn't say a word and counted the wounds seriously. After counting, he walked to Liang Xiao, held his waistband with his hands, lowered his head, and murmured: "A total of... thirteen places."—
