Chapter 101 Scaled horse, a real man should be like this! [Subscribe]

Mashi Street

Wei Hong walked among the piles of mules and horses, trying his best to avoid the horse manure and cow urine on the ground, and the sound of bargaining in various accents filled his ears.

Finally, he stopped in front of a small open-air horse farm.

This horse farm was surrounded by only a fence, and dozens of horses were placed inside for public selection, attracting passers-by to stop and look.

The Great Zhou Dynasty was martial!

Horses were a very important mount, whether in the army or in the civilian world. Although Wei Hong did not plan to join the army, it was still okay to buy a horse if he had spare money.

It just so happened that he wanted to find the ten-year red fruit in the mountains and forests recently, and by the way, he found a place suitable for practicing outside the city.

After all, after his strength broke through, he didn't dare to practice martial arts freely. Every time he made a lot of noise, it would inevitably cause dissatisfaction among neighbors over time.

Therefore, it was necessary to buy a horse.

"Sir, what would you like to buy?" A young man with a northern frontier accent saw that he was very impressive and immediately came up to him politely: "We have everything from mules and horses for transporting goods, to Dayuan horses and Hequ horses for walking, and even the thousand-mile horses on the grassland."

"How many are these?"

Wei Hong looked at the horses at the corner of the fence.

They were tall and muscular, standing proudly among the other horses, with faint scaly black armor on their bodies, looking very ferocious and majestic.

"These are the scaled armored horses that were eliminated from the black armor army and were once injured on the battlefield!" The young man from the northern frontier patiently introduced: "They have the blood of monsters and are naturally manic. They can only be tamed by strong people above the late stage of the skin refining realm. Moreover, they can carry a thousand pounds of weight and walk a thousand miles a day and eight hundred miles a night. Their speed and endurance are both top-notch."

Wei Hong's eyes suddenly flashed with a hint of excitement.

With his current status as the second-in-command of Zhuji Meat Shop, riding a discarded scale-armored horse should not be too ostentatious. Looking at this majestic appearance, which man can not be tempted?

They are clearly the Lamborghini of horses!

"What's the price?" Wei Hong asked.

"A strong adult scale-armored horse is about 12,000 taels." The young man from Northern Frontier said like a treasure: "Old, discarded, and injured ones have a price range of 3,000 to 5,000 taels. I can decide which one you like and give you a good price."

"This one!"

Wei Hong chose one of the best and tallest ones.

The young man from Northern Frontier smiled and said, "Sir, you have good eyesight. This was once the mount of a captain of the Black Armor Army. Unfortunately, it suffered seven or eight injuries in a battle with the barbarians, and its left front hoof was broken."

"Now it is no longer suitable for charging with armor, but its injuries have basically recovered. It can run normally and gallop without any problem. Even if it carries a thousand pounds, it is no problem. It is ten or a hundred times stronger than ordinary thousand-mile horses!"

Wei Hong nodded with satisfaction.

The young man from Northern Frontier immediately stretched out his left hand happily, then retracted his hand into his sleeve and faced it. The two bargained with their hands in their sleeves, and finally negotiated the deal at a high price of 4,800 taels.

Wei Hong looted 3,300 taels when he killed Li Hongdong two days ago!

After his reputation spread, he accepted the registration of two more merchants.

Including Hongluan Embroidery Workshop, a total of 1,530 taels of fees were collected from five merchants every month.

So now he could barely afford to buy this horse after emptying his family's coffers.

After handing over the payment!

The horse dealer registered the horse and hung a bronze plaque with Wei Hong's name on the horse's neck, and then the transaction was officially concluded.

The Great Zhou Dynasty had extremely severe penalties for stealing horses!

And most of those who could afford armored horses were not ordinary people.

So even if this kind of horse was lost in the downtown area, few thieves dared to touch it, so the safety could be assured. After all, women and children were abducted and sold every day in Nuo Da Shendu, but there were only a handful of people who lost horses.

I have to admit that this is a very ridiculous thing.

"Sir, this horse is yours!" The young man from the northern border said with a smile, "But this horse is ferocious and violent. Seven or eight strong men can't get close to it. Do you want us to send someone to take you home?"

"No need!"

Wei Hong took the reins and pressed his hand on the back of the scale-armored horse.

"Squeak!"

The scale-armored horse instantly became angry.

It kicked its hind legs restlessly, obviously trying its best to suppress its anger. It has a high IQ and doesn't like anyone other than its owner to touch it.

Seeing that Wei Hong didn't want to take his hand away, and his palm seemed to have a thousand pounds of gravity and gradually crushed down, the scale-armored horse finally couldn't hold it back and went crazy.

"Squeak!"

The scale-armored horse was furious and wanted to flip the hand over, and then madly trampled to death the person in front of him who dared to provoke him.

But Wei Hong's hand was like a mountain!

No matter how it struggled and made a fuss, it was always difficult to break free.

It couldn't even lift its front hooves to stomp, and its four hooves were pressed deeply into the mud without it noticing.

"Hiss!"

The young man from Northern Frontier took a breath of cold air.

He thought Wei Hong was going to be in big trouble, but he didn't expect that the armored horse was at a disadvantage.

"You are so strong, sir." The young man from Northern Frontier couldn't help but praise: "It's really shocking that you can even subdue the armored horse!"

"Haha!"

Wei Hong smiled without saying anything, letting the armored horse continue to toss.

Finally, when he was tired and panting, he patted the horse's head and said: "I will be your master from now on, remember? Xiao Hei!"

"Xiao Hei?" The cheek of the young man from Northern Frontier twitched. Isn't this the name of a dog? It's really rough to choose such a name.

But the scaled horse didn't care too much!

After it was convinced, it immediately restrained its anger and became docile and sensible.

It even took the initiative to rub Wei Hong's clothes with its head. It was completely different from its previous violent appearance. Instead, it looked like a well-behaved pet.

"It's quite intelligent."

Wei Hong smiled and led it out of the city.

The horse dealer equipped it with a good ebony saddle and the horseshoes were also newly ordered. Unfortunately, those without military positions in the city were strictly prohibited from riding horses, so he could only ride outside the city.

Now the butcher shop is looked after by Luan Xiaoqi and Li Daniu.

Wei Hong only needs to go once in the second half of the night every day. He is very free during the day. While he is free, he plans to open a secret base in the mountains 20 miles southwest of the city.

First of all, he can practice martial arts quietly outside at any time!

Secondly, he can also search for the ten-year red vermilion fruit in the mountains and forests, and find fierce beasts to practice with.

It is difficult to achieve great things if he is trapped in the capital all day long. He must try to get out.

"Go!"

Outside the city gate!

Wei Hong jumped on the horse and galloped freely.

The scale-armored horse began to neigh, and spread its hooves like a gust of wind, not only raising a gust of dust on the muddy road, but also scaring the passing merchants and passers-by to avoid it.

"Hahaha, hurry up, faster!"

"A real man should be like this, cool!"

Wei Hong whipped the whip happily in his heart, and his mood seemed to be slightly improved.
