Chapter 1144 – Following

With the passage of time, the sky gradually dimmed down, Zhuang Rui in the distance from the stream is very close to the place, cleaned out a piece of grass, raised a bonfire, in this dry and windy summer, lighting a bonfire is a very dangerous thing, a careless may cause grassland fire.

But Zhuang Rui is also no way, he felt the state of his own, now can not use the aura, if the horseback ride back, I guess when you find Bartel and others, the crotch will also be worn out, might as well light a fire to wait for them to find over.

Only waited until 1 o’clock in the night, still did not see the figure of Bartel and others, but the wild horse group one after another are back, Zhuang Rui counted, actually came back to have more than eighty wild horses.

These horses are slightly hostile to look at Zhuang Rui, standing in a place far away from the campfire or lying or standing, Zhuang Rui knows that they should also be resting, because no matter what posture the horse is in, even if it’s standing it can fall asleep.

“Hoo hoo …… poof!”

After disciplining his subordinates, the red horse came in front of Zhuang Rui, his front legs were crooked and he bent his body down to lie down, a pair of big eyes full of spirituality, staring at Zhuang Rui.

In the world of animals, the strongest is honored, that is the inevitable law, just like the wolf pack, if the wolf king is senile, then certainly to abdicate and leave alone, otherwise it will be mercilessly attacked by the new wolf king.

And since the red horse expressed goodwill and submission to Zhuang Rui, Zhuang Rui’s side originally belonged to the white horse’s position, was robbed by the red horse, but whether it is height and weight than the red horse worse than the white horse a circle, apparently no opinion.

Zhuang Rui reached out in the red horse that is like a satin body rubbing, said with a smile: “Why? You’re soothed, brother I can’t hold up my energy.”

Although the aura can automatically recover, but this time the consumption is too much, without a three to five days time is not to recover, but Zhuang Rui is not too worried.

“Hoo hoo ……”

The red horse’s mouth hailed a thick breath, twisting its head and sticking out its tongue to lick Zhuang Rui’s hand, it could feel Zhuang Rui’s kindness towards him, and after hundreds of miles of running wildly, the red horse also recognized Zhuang Rui’s ability, in other words, it had already submitted itself to Zhuang Rui.

“Alright, take an early rest! Tomorrow we’ll head back.”

Zhuang Rui smiled and wrenched down the red horse’s head with his hand, cozily laying on the red horse’s neck, feeling the pulsing of the red horse’s body, and fell into a deep sleep in no time.

When the first ray of sunlight rose in the morning, Zhuang Rui opened his eyes, and the first thing he saw was the red horse’s big eyes, dark and deep, like jewels that mesmerized people.

The bonfire from last night had already been extinguished, but there were still wisps of thin smoke coming out from the bottom of the bonfire, drifting crookedly and disappearing above the grassland.

“Get up!”

Zhuang Rui rolled up his body with a carp, the red horse also followed and stood up, one person and one horse bathed in the early morning sunlight, appearing so coordinated.

“Resume …… the law!”

The red horse let out a long neigh, causing the horses not far away to stir, several horse neighs followed, adding another bright landscape to this infinite prairie of vitality.

After last night’s recovery, Zhuang Rui felt that the aura has been enriched quite a lot, although it can’t be used for large-scale surveying, but it is enough to support himself to at least return to the gathering place.

His own tracking of the red horse had already been separated from Bartel and the others for a day and a night, he could imagine that Peng Fei’s kid must be anxious with blisters on his mouth, and if he didn’t go back, it was estimated that he would have to go to the garrison to search for himself.

Zhuang Rui rubbed the smooth back of the red horse and said, “Go back with me?”

After saying that, Zhuang Rui looked at the red horse somewhat nervously, he didn’t know if the red horse was willing to give up its glory on the prairie and follow him?

Although the red horse had expressed enough goodwill towards himself before, Zhuang Rui was not sure that the red horse would definitely follow him, after all, all creatures wish to have a space where they can live freely, rather than one where they would be subject to some external constraints.

“Lulu ……”

The red horse tilted its head and let out a short neigh, the color revealed in its eyes was actually somewhat complex, yes, looking in Zhuang Rui’s eyes was complex, there was hope, there was fear, there was tenderness, and there was even a hint of a faint murderous aura.

Red horse’s look also anxious up, front hooves can not stop on the ground planing, nose constantly snorting, a moment to look at Zhuang Rui, a moment to turn his head to look at not far away from the group of horses, obviously very entangled inside, difficult to make a decision.

The distant horses also felt the red horse’s agitation, a few slightly larger horses suddenly up to the sky long hoarse up, no longer avoid Zhuang Rui, ran straight over, with the body in the red horse body friction, seems to be in this way to retain their king.

Zhuang Rui quietly waited, in this process, he did not use his aura to pacify the red horse again, because he knew that if that happened, the balance in the red horse’s heart would definitely be tilted towards himself, Zhuang Rui just wanted to give the red horse a chance to choose.

In the past, on the Great Snow Mountain, Zhuang Rui had kept the snow leopard, although he would still think of that hairy guy from time to time, Zhuang Rui had never regretted it, because only there could the snow leopard preserve its wildness and be the true king of the snow mountain.

Now it was the same, although Zhuang Rui was incomparably eager for the red horse to leave with him, he also didn’t want the red horse to lose its wildness and the elegance of its own horse king.

“Lilu ……”

After a full four to five minutes, the red horse suddenly raised its head to the sky and gave a long neigh, no longer looking at Zhuang Rui, but running towards the horses, the sound of the hooves on the ground was like a loud drum beating on Zhuang Rui’s heart.

“As you wish! If you want to remain here as a horse king, then stay! The sky in Beijing is no better than the grassland, and it …… is just a little too small there.”

Zhuang Rui’s expression was incomparably lost, this one day and one night together, although it didn’t manage to form a deep bond with the red horse, but in the middle of the chase, the red horse’s steed-like performance was left a deep imprint in Zhuang Rui’s heart.

Coupled with the fact that horses are animals that have long been tamed by humans, compared to the snow leopard on the snowy mountains, Zhuang Rui hopes that the red horse can follow him.

Because unlike the Great Snow Mountain where people are rare, the survival space of wild animals on the grassland, under the erosion of human civilization, step by step, was compressed and became narrow, maybe at some point the red horse will suffer from bad luck, which is one of the reasons why Zhuang Rui hopes that the red horse will leave with him.

“Little white, go!”

Zhuang Rui shook his head again writing sadly, originally he thought that he had already become close to the red horse, who knew that the red horse was still hard to resist the temptation of freedom, and in the end did not follow him.

“Ride!”

Rolling over onto the white horse’s back, Zhuang Rui glanced back at the red horse that was surrounded by the group of horses in the center, his legs forcefully clamped down on Xiao Bai’s horse’s belly, and ran towards the road he came from.

“Little White, you say I’m so good to it, why doesn’t it want to follow me?”

Zhuang Rui couldn’t tell what he was feeling at the moment, forcing himself to hold back his desire to turn back, like an old woman, he chanted with Little White on his crotch.

“Pfft!” The white horse snorted, sort of answering Zhuang Rui’s words, of course, Mr. Zhuang Rui was not a zoologist and couldn’t understand what this horse meant.

“Yeah! I shouldn’t have a sense of loss when I let it make the choice myself, but …… why am I so sad?”

The white horse’s speed slowly accelerated, Zhuang Rui knew that he was moving away from the red horse step by step, and perhaps it would be difficult to see this divine horse again for the rest of his life.

“Lulu!”

Suddenly, a familiar long neigh sounded behind Zhuang Rui, followed by a series of hoofbeats that were as sudden as raindrops also entered Zhuang Rui’s ears.

Zhuang Rui’s body was shocked, hastily reached out to hold the reins, so that the white horse stopped, looked back, a red horse shadow, fast as lightning to their own running.

But just more than ten seconds of time, the red horse has chased to the back of the small white, rushing body a sudden stop, the front limbs raised high, the whole horse man stood in front of Zhuang Rui.

“Hoo hoo, hoo hoo ……”

The red horse gasped for air, arching to Zhuang Rui with its big head, a pair of bright and clear big eyes, showing a kind of puzzled look, seemingly blaming Zhuang Rui in general.

“You …… you are going to follow me? Not abandoning me?”

Zhuang Rui looked at the red horse with disbelief, his mood at the moment is like a complaining woman who was abandoned by her husband, and suddenly realized that her husband’s previous coldness was just to give her a surprise, that mood is like breaking a five-flavor bottle, sweet and sour, bitter, spicy, salty and salty all together surged to the heart.

“Lulu ……” the red horse lightly hissed, and his big head nodded, which was an answer to Zhuang Rui’s question.

“Haha, hahaha ……”

After Zhuang Rui saw the red horse’s behavior, the surprise in his heart is simply difficult to add, on the back of the white horse almost dancing up, but also holding the red horse to reach over the big head, fiercely kissed a few mouths.

After Zhuang Rui made out with the red horse for a while, he opened his mouth and said: “Okay, let’s go! You follow us, don’t run too fast ah!”

It’s not that Zhuang Rui doesn’t want to ride the red horse, it’s just that the red horse is wild and untamed, although it has submitted to the self, but it’s definitely not used to being ridden by someone, Zhuang Rui is ready to slowly tame it a little bit, and wait for the red horse to get used to it and then use him as his own mount.

“Ruler …… Ruler ……”

After hearing Zhuang Rui’s words, the red horse even shook his head and used his big mouth to gently tear at the clothes on Zhuang Rui’s body and pulled.

“Hm? What’s wrong?” Zhuang Rui was a bit puzzled, then his eyes lit up and asked, “You mean to let me ride on you?”

“Lilu ……”

After the red horse heard Zhuang Rui’s words, a light neigh came out of its mouth, its body took a few steps backward, and its head flicked up and down a few times.

“Really?”

Zhuang Rui got excited, although the white horse was barely considered a divine steed under the addition of his own aura, but compared to the red horse, it was incomparable.
