Shen Xingtang looked at the male horse following her footsteps with a happy expression. She did it.
But after she walked a few steps with it, she began to realize that something seemed wrong.
The remaining horses…seemed to completely ignore the bull horse’s actions and didn’t even follow it.
Shen Xingtang's face was no longer happy.
Could it be, could it be fake... There is no such thing as a top horse at all, and she was deceived by Qiao Xuejun?
No, she didn't believe it. She wasn't the one asking Qiao Xuejun at the time, and Qiao Xuejun didn't look like she was lying at all.
Maybe it’s because this place is still too close, and the other horses didn’t realize that the lead horse was far away, so they didn’t follow.
Should try again.
She held the horse's head and whispered, "Little horse, ask your other companions to come with me. I will give you good food and drink when we get back."
Qiao Xuejun watched from the side and found it interesting. Did Shen Xingtang really think that horses could understand human language?
Of course, horses can't understand human language.
Shen Xingtang's face was tense. He took the horse a few steps forward, away from the herd, and walked towards the ferry.
However, from beginning to end, only the stallion left the group and followed her.
It didn't lead even a single other horse.
how so?
She had walked far enough away from the horses. If she walked any further, she would have to get on the boat! However, the other horses really had no intention of following her.
Looking at the horses standing still, Shen Xingtang finally began to feel that using the lead horse to control the herd was a scam, it was simply impossible and could not be done.
She gritted her teeth, looked at Qiao Xuejun who was standing beside her and watching her movements, and clenched her fists.
There was a hint of mockery in Qiao Xuejun's eyes and eyebrows.
Shen Xingtang looked at her deeply, gave up trying to attract other horses, and took the male horse to the ferry and got on the boat.
The patrolman standing behind Qiao Xuejun also felt strange: "Why don't the other horses follow her?"
Qiao Xuejun: "She got the wrong horse."
She watched Shen Xingtang leave and walked towards the herd, towards the older mare who was standing in the center.
There were soldiers on Shen Xingtang's ship to meet her. She brought a stallion aboard, and the soldier who met her was surprised: "Assistant Shen, why is there only one horse?"
Shen Xingtang reluctantly put away her indignant expression of being deceived and showed her approachable side again. She sighed, "After all, these are wild horses, and their habits are different from what we know. So... only one came."
The soldier nodded and quickly accepted the idea. Theory is theory, but it is understandable that it is difficult to implement.
He still felt a little regretful: "Then it will be troublesome later. We have to catch them one by one."
He said, "Assistant Shen, come with me and bring it to the cargo hold."
The two men worked together and quickly drove the horse into the empty cargo hold and locked it up.
The two soldiers in charge of the cargo hold were also surprised to see that there was only one horse. They asked again, and that soldier helped Shen Xingtang explain.
The other two warriors also nodded: "That can't be helped."
After they had locked up the horses, they went out onto the deck, and as they went out they discussed, "Let's get some ropes to make lassoes, so we can get them up quicker."
"I didn't expect that the leader horse didn't have any..." The soldier hadn't even uttered the word "use" before the rest of the words got stuck in his throat. His eyes stayed on the ice field and he paused.
Several others also looked over.
On the not-so-wide ice field at the foot of the mountain, a slightly larger horse followed Qiao Xuejun's footsteps, and other horses followed suit.
Every time Qiao Xuejun took a step, they followed, following closely and were extremely obedient.
The soldier's expression became strange: "Didn't they say that the head horse is useless?"
The remaining two warriors looked at Shen Xingtang who was standing beside them with puzzled expressions, wanting Shen Xingtang to explain it to them.
"Don't you mean that their habits are different?"
Shen Xingtang looked at the scene on the ice field with a pale face, unable to speak: "..."
Now everyone knows she is talking nonsense.
She felt as if she had been made a fool of herself in public. She could not explain it, she did not know what had happened.
Shen Xingtang's cheeks were hot: "I'll go back first."
[Host, please note that the favorability of the target character, Dr. An, has dropped by 100 points. ]
Shen Xingtang's hands were clenched so tightly that they were numb. "You old fool, I just failed once and my favorability rating dropped."
100 points lost! Shen Xingtang was a little unwilling and felt pain for these points.
She turned and went into the cabin, leaving quickly, wanting only to return to her room.
Passing by the restaurant, she heard the sound of discussion coming from inside: "...I have to say, Teacher Qiao is really good. He can handle it directly and easily."
Shen Xingtang paused for a moment, then quickened his pace and walked deeper into the corridor.
But soon, she heard movement behind her and someone was chasing her.
"Xingtang." It was Huo Antu's voice.
Is it hers to laugh too? Shen Xingtang wanted to pretend that he didn't hear it and continued walking forward.
But soon Huo Antu caught up with her.
The other person grabbed her hand and said with great interest: "Xingtang, I never knew you could subdue a horse."
Shen Xingtang was surprised and looked up at Huo Antu: "...What?"
Huo Antu: "I never knew you could tame a horse, that's amazing."
Shen Xingtang didn't understand why the old man Dr. An lowered her favorability rating. She was so embarrassing, but Huo Antu didn't seem to think so and didn't lower his favorability rating.
Shen Xingtang couldn't help but say, "But I failed and didn't bring back the other horses. But Qiao Xuejun did it."
Huo Antu: "She is a professional, you don't have to compete with her. Besides, the horse you brought back is the tallest, you are also very good."
Shen Xingtang stared at Huo Antu blankly.
System: [Host. He loves you. This is the destiny of this world! ]
Shen Xingtang came back to his senses.
Yes, this is the fate bestowed by the world. Everything is already predetermined.
For example, the fact that she is the protagonist has long been destined and will not change. She is just temporarily at a disadvantage. In fact, she now has the unconditional support of Huo Antu and Dr. An, who is like a blood bag of favorability, standing on her side.
The system told her that sooner or later her destiny would get back on track.

Qiao Xuejun held a bell in her hand and led the horses onto the ferry, deliberately adjusting the rhythm of the team.
The soldier watched from the side and exclaimed: "There are really too many. Now we can build a ranch when we go back."
Another soldier said, "They won't cause any trouble, will they? We can handle the thousand survivors on the boat. But we have no experience in dealing with horses. After we get off the boat, we have to take them up the mountain. Can Teacher Qiao handle it?"
They had tacitly ruled out the possibility that Shen Xingtang could help with this matter.
Another soldier said, "Don't worry. The captain told us to have Elder An come over to provide support when we are almost there. Elder An has experience!"
