The midday sun was warm, and the horse racing stands, which were packed with people yesterday, were empty. The soft green grass was different from the one at A Yuan's house. How should I describe it? It had a horse-like feel to it.
When A-Yuan was being held, he felt like he was about the same size as a horse. But now his mother wasn't holding him and had put him on the lawn. When the jockey brought out the whirlwind kick and brought it in front of him, A-Yuan's mouth turned into an "O".
He shoved his leg at the grass, wanting to get a little closer, but the second-in-command of the Weng family quickly came to hug him: "Young master, you can't."
The one-eyed commander shouted at the jockey, "Back off, back off! Back off now!"
Horses are animals; they obey the jockey's commands, but they can also kick. Almost all horses have this problem: they won't bite adults, but they will bite children. There have been incidents of horses biting children at Central Racecourse.
And don't be fooled by how fast the Whirlwind Kick is; it also has a terrible temper.
This horse was originally chosen by Master Dong at first sight, and it can be considered a bloodline inheritance. He and A Yuan had the same opinion when choosing the horse: they thought that Whirlwind Legs was a small horse with a big temper, a troublemaker, and should be able to run fast.
Sure enough, it ran very well. To train it, we went through several jockeys, including Master Dong, and seven or eight horse trainers. But even now, when it's well-behaved, it's fine. But when it gets angry, it doesn't care who you are. It kicks, spits, and swears, and it swears very filthyly.
Yesterday, the bodyguard held A Yuan and gently pressed his forehead against the whirlwind kick. Today, when he reached out, he wanted to press it again.
The whirlwind kick seemed to be able to see him, taking a step closer and lowering its head.
Weng Hua thought the horse was quite well-behaved, so he wanted to pick up Young Master Nie and play with it, but the jockey refused.
The jockey waved his hand and said, "The more docile the Cyclone Kick is, the more careful you need to be, lest it bite."
This is the young master of the richest family. Now that their gang is returning, no one dares to be too ostentatious. Otherwise, Ah Yuan would be the young master of the Righteous Warriors Hall. If he were bitten by a horse, wouldn't Master Dong eat him alive?
Weng Hua quickly picked up A Yuan and moved him aside, saying to the jockey, "Let's run a lap according to the obstacle course rules, so our young master can have a go. The kid can't have come all this way for nothing."
A-Yuan didn't understand, but he nodded seriously; he really couldn't have come for nothing.
He kept staring into Whirlwind Kick's eyes, and Whirlwind Kick kept staring back at him. He thought of something, stretched out his chubby little hand and smiled as he fed it to him. Huh, Whirlwind Kick turned his head, his mouth crooked as he tried to bite, but the jockey whipped his head twice and pulled him away.
A-Yuan wasn't afraid; he just found it fun and a little melancholy, realizing he was still quite small.
I wonder when he'll grow up to be as tall as the jockey.
Not far away, Dong Ye was chatting with Chen Rou about things in the military camp. For example, the British would often hold meetings here and cut off the power while taking notes, taking advantage of the fact that the power system was in disrepair.
Those young men from the mainland were really something. They commissioned a construction team to buy a batch of oversized fuses, and one night they sneaked over and replaced the main switch with a larger one. They even bypassed the transformer and screwed in a larger fuse there as well. As a result, when the British troops went to turn on the switch the next day, the current at the main switch was probably much higher than expected. It went directly into the branch lines without going through the transformer, and with a series of cracks, all the wires burned out, and the people who turned on the switch were burned.
After the old power lines were burned out, the mainland side could naturally apply for new power lines and order the installation of a switch. In terms of electricity, they would no longer be subject to others, and the other side could only watch helplessly and get angry for nothing.
This was something Chen Rou had never heard of before. Seeing how happy Dong Ye was, she thought of something: "It seems you're not on the list of those attending the ceremony, but don't be sad. When I have some free time, I'll take you to the mainland by myself."
Mr. Dong was actually very concerned, especially when he thought about how that bad guy, Mr. Er, had not only been exonerated but was also being treated as an honored guest, his image being filmed and stored in a museum to be passed down through history, while he was like a bubble on the beach, disappearing without a trace after death. He was both jealous and resentful, but since things had come to this point, he could only come to terms with it himself.
He said, "Fame and fortune are nothing but bullshit, I've never cared about them."
As they were talking, the jockey, who was galloping in the distance, suddenly shouted, "Giddy up, giddy up, giddy up!"
Chen Rou also turned and ran. At this moment, A Yuan was on the ground, being watched by Weng Hua and One-Eyed, riding a tricycle.
In the blink of an eye, Chen Rou grabbed the child and the car and dragged him away, also pulling at the one-eyed boy in the process.
With a scream from the jockey, One-Eyed fell to the ground, the horse's flank swept over his body with a whirlwind kick. Weng Hua clutched his head and cried for his mother. Dong Ye jumped up from his wheelchair and watched Chen Rou race against the horse.
She was always as still as a virgin and as swift as a rabbit, and she ran straight towards the side of the horse pen with her legs spread wide.
But if she climbed over the wall, there were several horses inside, and if one horse went berserk, the others could easily be infected and attack people. Master Dong stomped his feet and roared at One-Eyed: "Go after them! Go after them quickly!"
Shout again: "Waiter, horse trainer, jockey, jockey!"
Just as he was yelling, Chen Rou raised her hands high and placed her son and his toy car on the second-floor stands.
Just then, a whirlwind kick came hurtling over, howling as it tried to bite her.
There was a railing on the second floor. The child went in, and the tricycle got stuck. But Chen Rou didn't care about the tricycle anymore. She put her hand on the railing and shook it hard, just managing to avoid the horse's head. With a burst of strength in her waist, she flipped herself up to the second viewing platform.
There was a cleaning lady on the second floor who saw A Yuan roll on the ground and rushed over to hug him.
But A-Yuan was still holding onto his tricycle, refusing to let go, afraid that the vehicle would fall off and break.
