Chapter 205: Jade Lion of the Night
Twenty precious swords made of snowflake iron were delivered and completed. Because it was the last one to be completed, Pang Ying's sword had not yet been equipped with a scabbard.
Pang Ying carried her 96-jin sword wrapped in black cloth on her back and refused to put it into the wooden box for transportation. She just asked Shen Qiu again, "Brother Shen, please help me make a scabbard as soon as possible. I want to keep it with me all the time."
Shen Qiu secretly laughed at this burly woman who loved swords like her life, and promised repeatedly, "You're welcome, lady. I will match the best scabbard for your precious sword."
"Don't make it fancy," Pang Ying reminded again, "Just make it strong and durable."
You don't need to say that. A fancy scabbard is not worthy of this sword or you! Shen Qiu smiled and nodded.
Among the twenty precious swords, Luo Li made a short blade about a foot long for herself. She fiddled with the dagger in her hand, looking at the snowflake pattern on the cold blade, thinking to herself, which one is more powerful, this ancient snowflake iron sword or the military dagger in space?
One is a rare natural treasure, and the other is the result of scientific and technological progress. If the two blades hit each other hard, which one will break or curl?
No! She shook her head quickly to dispel this curiosity.
These two blades are rare treasures of this era. Why should I test which one is better because of curiosity? It would be a pity if they were damaged. Anyway, they all belong to me. Luo Li smiled secretly, inserted the dagger into the scabbard, and put it away.
"Yuli, please help Jintai keep this sword. This is a great gift from me to him."
"Got it, miss." Yuli took the sword and put it on her back together with her own sword. She patted the two scabbards happily, "When I see Xiao Jintai again, if he doesn't let me lick it, he won't be able to get this sword!"
Hong Gu was also happy because she had a snowflake brass sword on her back. She reached out and touched her beloved disciple's head lovingly, "Yuli, don't make Xiao Jintai angry. He might snatch it from you. If you want to play the licking game, it's better to find Xiao Muxiu and Xiao Wuji. They are soft persimmons that are easy to pick on."
"Master! I will work harder tomorrow to practice, and I promise not to embarrass you again when I fight Xiao Jintai!" Yu Li promised anxiously.
Hong Gu thought that even if you try your best, you can't beat Xiao Jintai, who is a martial arts monster, not to mention that he has met a martial arts master like Wu Chizi. It's not easy to discourage the ambition of her precious disciple, so she just smiled and gave her a look of praise.
Siyu also got a short sharp blade. She looked at Pang Ying who was carrying a big knife beside her and joked: "Pang Ying, in order to save the raw material of snowflake iron, I cast this big knife for you. The young lady gave me, Ruhua and Tingting short knives, and the young lady herself was reluctant to make a long sword.
If we encounter danger in the future, the young lady and the three of us will rely on you for protection."
"Of course, if we encounter enemies, I, Pang Ying, will protect the captain and you at the cost of my life!" Pang Ying, who was carrying a big knife and looked excited, said loyally and unyieldingly.
Mulan'er also held the hilt tightly, her pretty face flushed with excitement, her feet felt like she was stepping on cotton, but her heart was in the clouds.
She had heard from her father that this precious sword made of snowflake iron was extremely strong and sharp, and could cut iron like mud. It was a treasure worth a thousand gold. Few famous generals and heroes in the world could own such a precious weapon. She had never thought that she, a silly girl who followed the princess, would have such a blessing.
Wu Xing hurried over, knelt on one knee in front of the King of Qin, clasped his fists, and couldn't suppress his joy on his face, "Your Highness! The batch of Dayuan war horses you requested has arrived. Yan Chao is really capable. He actually got a Night-Shining Jade Lion horse from the Grand Prince of Dayuan, saying that it is a gift to the princess!"
Qin Wang Zhao Defang was also surprised, "Really? Yan Chao is thoughtful. I will reward him well later.
Princess, let's go and see your precious horse!" He took Luo Li's hand and walked excitedly towards the stable.
Luo Li was a little confused. Dayuan precious horse, Night-Shining Jade Lion horse? For me?
But seeing the look of surprise on the face of Qin Wang Zhao Defang, he knew that this gift was extremely precious and rare, and he was looking forward to the appearance of the Night-Shining Jade Lion Horse!
Wu Xing led the way, and everyone came to the stables on the left side of the Moyun Cavalry Camp. There were several large piles of hay next to the neat rows of stables. A team of soldiers stood guard in front of the door, and a dozen grooms were cutting hay with trowels.
Seeing the arrival of the prince and princess, the soldiers on guard knelt on one knee and saluted, and a dozen grooms also knelt in fear. The King of Qin waved his hand lightly, "No need to be polite, please stand up!"
Wu Xing said with a smile, "Prince, these 300 war horses have just been transported. I am afraid that they will not adapt to the climate and water. They must be carefully taken care of here for a while before being sent to the princess's big-footed women's army.
The brothers who sent the horses brought back Yan+ The message was that this Night-Shining Jade Lion foal was born to the Night-Shining Jade Lion horse of the Great Prince of Dayuan. After he learned about it, he wanted to buy it with ten thousand gold coins, but the Great Prince refused to sell it.
Later, Yan+ directly said that he wanted to give it to the princess, and the Great Prince of Dayuan sent someone to bring the foal out without saying a word. He said that he didn't want a penny, and that it would be a gift to the Princess of Qin in the name of the Great Prince of Dayuan. "Wu Xing's tone carried a trace of pride for the prince.
There was a meaningful smile in the deep eyes of the King of Qin. "It is rare that Rong Zhan still remembers the friendship we had in the past.
Since he is willing to give away the foal born by his beloved horse, I will help him again when he encounters difficulties in the future."
Yun Yi said, "The eldest prince Rong Zhan is also a person who knows how to repay kindness. Last time, he was chased to the border by his uncle and brother. The prince saved him when he was young, and they had a good relationship.
The eldest prince valued the Night-Shining Jade Lion more than his life, and I was curious whether the foal born by the Night-Shining Jade Lion would have the same majestic demeanor as its mother.
Qin Wang Zhao Defang was also very interested, "Wuxing, take the foal out and have a look, then we will know."
Wuxing responded happily and walked quickly into the stable.
Luo Li looked up at the King of Qin with sparkling eyes, "Zhao Defang, are the three hundred war horses for our Big Foot Women's Army?"
As the highest level of lick dog, King of Qin Zhao Defang smiled gently and calmly, "Princess, these three hundred war horses from Dayuan were purchased for you by my subordinates. They are more majestic than the Hequ war horses."
"Zhao Defang, you are so kind!" Luo Li praised Qin the lick dog happily, raised her toes in front of everyone, held the King of Qin's head and gave him a crisp "smack" on the face, "reward you with a lick dog!"
Qin Wang Zhao Defang was so delighted by this reward that his heart blossomed. With a hint of shyness in his sweetness, he didn't look at the eyes of the people around him. He looked at a white cloud in the blue sky and said calmly and steadily: "Princess, as long as you like it."
Everyone covered their lips and laughed. The princess's fiery boldness and the prince's shy and calm appearance made people laugh.
After a while, Wu Xing came out with a white precious horse.
Although it was a foal, it was taller and more muscular than an ordinary adult war horse. The four hooves were evenly symmetrical and powerful, the hair was shiny white without a single stray hair, the body was beautiful, and the two big eyes were light pink. While being led, he pouted unconvincedly, like a naughty child who refused to be tamed.
[Beautiful!
Luo Li's eyes lit up, and she secretly praised. "
Princess, do you like it?"
Luo Li nodded her head like a chicken pecking at rice, "I like it! I like it!"
Ghost Hand Poison Doctor also took the opportunity to help his nephew, "You little brat are really sincere to my master, and you want to give her all the treasures."
Luo Li also knew that this precious horse was a rare treasure, and she looked at the precious horse without blinking, and thanked the King of Qin, "Zhao Defang, thank you very much!"
The King of Qin's handsome eyes were filled with favor . "Princess, you don't have to be polite. I am yours, and of course all my treasures are yours too."
Luo Li, whose face was hot and heartbeating when Qin's licker was teased in public, glared at the King of Qin unreasonably, "This precious horse is a gift from the prince of Dayuan to me, the Princess of Qin, and it has nothing to do with you!"
Everyone couldn't help but laugh again. The licker of the prince was a little too attentive and flattering, and the princess was a little angry.
Qin Wang Zhao Defang smiled warmly and didn't care, walked forward, and took the reins from Wu Xing's hand. He reached out and stroked the horse's back a few times, and patted the horse's head.
Strangely enough, the horse that had been refusing to be tamed and was rebellious in Wuxing's hands, became obedient and docile. Not only did it not kick its hind legs in resistance, but it also rubbed the King of Qin's arm affectionately with its head, just like a naughty child who had been well behaved and was acting cute with his parents.
Seeing this, Luo Li felt as if her heart was gently pricked by a cat's paw, and she shouted with an itchy heart: "Zhao Defang, this precious horse is mine!" She was afraid of being kicked by the untamed horse, so she declared her sovereignty with her mouth, but she did not dare to move forward.
The King of Qin responded with a smile in his heart: "Princess, this horse is yours, no one can compete with you. Come here and get familiar with your horse."
Seeing that the beautiful horse was very docile, Luo Li dared to walk forward and carefully stretched out her arm to touch the beautiful horse's head.
Xiao Ye Zhao Yu Shizi did not get angry, and took the initiative to rub his head against Luo Li's hand again.
Luo Li was delighted, with joy and excitement in her eyes, "Zhao Defang, it doesn't dislike me, it likes me too!"
The King of Qin handed her the reins with a smile, "Princess, please give it a name!"
Luo Li blurted out without thinking, "Just call it Xiaobai. I call your horse Dark Cloud Covering Snow Dahei, and I call mine Night-Shining Jade Lion Xiaobai. Dahei and Xiaobai, it sounds friendly and nice."
The princess named her horses casually. The King of Qin, Zhao Defang, smiled with the corners of his lips curled up, "Okay! Our two thousand-mile horses will be named Dahei and Xiaobai."
"I want to ride my horse and try it!" Luo Li was a little excited.
The King of Qin ordered someone to find a set of saddles, and diligently put on Xiaobai himself. He helped Luo Li climb onto the horse, patted Xiaobai affectionately, and reminded her: "Xiaobai, be careful, don't fall down."
Luo Li shook the reins and clamped her legs around the horse's belly, "Drive!..."
Xiaobai stepped out steadily with all four hooves, gradually accelerating...
Luo Li galloped around the large parade ground in the biting cold wind, the bright red cloak making a loud noise in the wind. She closed her mouth tightly, the tip of her nose was frozen red, but her mood was dancing with joy and excitement. A BMW is a BMW. Xiaobai, who was only a little over one year old, galloped steadily and fast.
The King of Qin was worried that Xiaobai might still be wild and naughty, so he used his Qinggong skills to follow the Pegasus closely to protect the princess who was having fun.
The man in red clothes and the white horse were heroic, and the horse was like a white dragon. Next to them was a figure wearing a black cloak and moving as fast as lightning.
It was so beautiful!
Yuli's eyes lit up and she said to Ni Shan'er beside her: "Shan'er, Xiaobai will also be a member of our family in the future. We must treat it well and give it more delicious snacks." Ni Shan'er, who
obeyed her sister Yuli's words, nodded immediately.
Hong Gu, who always doted on her beloved disciple, was startled and quickly warned: "Yuli, Xiaobai is a horse, and his stomach is different from that of a human. You are not allowed to feed him your spicy strips, snacks, and popcorn snacks!"
Yuli, whose thoughts were guessed by her master, remembered that horses eat grass and humans eat food, and they are not the same species. If she secretly feeds Xiaobai delicious snacks, it might really harm it.
Guilty and honest, she agreed to her master, and turned around and warned Ni Shan'er with a serious face, "Shan'er, did you hear me? You are not allowed to feed Xiaobai anything else!"
Ni Shan'er covered her mouth and laughed, and nodded: "I heard it."
