Chapter 17: The Little Pony

The foal lowered his head to eat grass as if he had sensed that he had been spotted, and looked up at Liu Lan shrouded in the moonlight, a pair of ink-black horse eyes looking at the humans in front of him with curiosity.

Apparently he had never seen a human before, and he was more curious than afraid of Sima.

Liu Lan didn't act rashly, and if he acted blindly before he was completely sure, he would only scare the foal away, so he kept standing in place, breathing peacefully and normally!

Perhaps it was this illusion that made the foal feel that the human beings in front of him were not in danger, and the horse's hooves just raised and wanted to move forward, but he hesitated, as if he felt that there would be danger in this step, and a pair of black jewel-like eyes stared at Sima again, and after looking at it, as if he felt that there was no danger, the horse's hooves fell again.

Liu Lan was excited, as long as the foal just took a step forward, he would be able to catch him, as for whether he could tame him, he didn't think about it, but how could he know if he didn't try.

Let's go!

When the foal entered his range of action, Liu Lan instantly started, reached out and grabbed the horse's mane, just when he was about to take advantage of the momentum to jump up, he didn't want the foal to kick back, and the whole person took off.

"Shhh

The foal neighed, and then fled like a red ray.

"Sima?"

At this moment, a call came from the direction of the camp, and at the same time as Sima got up, Zhao Hong also appeared beside him.

Looking at the unsheathed saber in Sima's hand, as well as the slightly sweaty forehead, Zhao Hong smiled and said, "Sima is still practicing knives so late!" ”

Looking at the direction in which the BMW fled, although Sima was stupid in his heart, he still grinned at Zhao Hong, who came to change the guard: "Blind practice!" ”

Sima patted him on the shoulder and left, and then said, "If it's cold, light the fire!"

Zhao Hong didn't speak, just smiled.

Cold and tired, Liu Lan lay down in the team and fell asleep, after falling asleep, the grass was no longer tied, and the wind was not cold, as if he saw Fat Ball and Brother Qiang again.

They said, buddy, don't forget to come back and take a look when you're gone, brothers, think!

At sunrise, Liu Lan woke up quietly, the humidity in the early morning was very heavy, as if he had soaked in the pool, from the inside to the outside, from top to bottom!

The grass is too damp, I don't want to get rheumatoid arthritis and hurry up, but I haven't walked a few steps, the breeze is really cool, so cool that the upper and lower teeth start to fight!

This body, whether it is himself or that Liu Lan, how can he suffer this pain, although he is not soaked in a honey pot, but he has not had the experience of sleeping in the wilderness, and the negative feelings in his heart are surging, so he almost picks his son and leaves!

Although the little devil has been grinding in his ears, he still guards the final bottom line in his heart, no matter what he does, he must always have it, since he should inherit it, even if he grits his teeth, he has to complete it!

Liu Lan took those words of giving up and retreating as a deaf ear, he knew his character too well, and he was determined to come and go quickly, but since his brother was determined to correct when he left, he had to become more tenacious no matter what difficulties he encountered!

Standing upright in the wind, it seems that the wind has become a Japanese wind, and the water has become sweat! It's as if the rising sun has also become hope, rising, and the eyes are firmer!

The people are still following, Liu Lan persuaded again, but the effect was nothing, and he had no choice but to leave them and continue to hurry, after yesterday's day's rush, at this moment has once again moved away from the border into the hinterland of the grassland, if yesterday was a calm river, then from this moment on, it will always become like a rushing turbulence!

At noon on this day, the group found a broad-leaved forest, surrounded by acacia poplar and elm that reached the height of the calf, artemisia schizophylla, and some wild chrysanthemums and fine-leaved lilies. After hastily sorting out a campsite and arranging manpower to patrol, Liu Lan lay down in the grass to rest.

Looking at the sky high and cloudless sky, suddenly a row of geese flew overhead, watching them fly freely in the air, so envious of their freedom to come and go, was fascinated, suddenly heard a whispered conversation in his ears, turned his head to look, but it was Wu Ke and Ji Kang.

Wu Ke is a man in his thirties, with a full beard and a scar on the side of his face, his home is in Hedong, and he was assigned to the border of Youzhou as a pawn for resisting arrest, and was captured in Lulong.

Ji Kang is also a man in his thirties, but he has to be thinner and smaller, with a simple face, no matter what Wu Ke asks him to do, he is obedient, and he has never been sloppy, but he always ignores others, and silence is golden.

At this moment, Lao Ji was holding a grass in his hand and Lao Wu commented on it, it was a common weed on the road when he came, the leaves were basically arranged vertically on both sides of the stem, and the leaves were perpendicular to the ground, arranged in a north-south direction.

"This grass is called Guide Grass, and the leaves will point south!" Liu Lan is no stranger to guide grass, and later generations often see this kind of grass, and later Baidu God checked it and learned that this is a plant called wild lettuce that grows on the grassland of Inner Mongolia.

"This grass is called Guide Grass, and the leaves will point south!" Liu Lan is no stranger to guide grass, and later generations often see this kind of grass, and later Baidu God checked it and learned that this is a plant called wild lettuce that grows on the grassland of Inner Mongolia.

As for why it is guided, it seems that because the grassland is vast, there are few tall trees, (it is rare to encounter such a lush broad-leaved forest like today), so every summer, the sun is scorching the wild grass on the grassland, especially at noon, the grassland is drier, and the water evaporates faster, and in this specific ecological environment, the wild lettuce has developed a way to adapt to the environment: its leaves grow perpendicular to the ground, and the arrangement is north-south.

The advantages of this leaf arrangement are that it can reduce direct sunlight and water evaporation to the greatest extent; Second, it is conducive to absorbing the oblique sunlight of the sun in the morning and evening and enhancing photosynthesis.

"Rest!" Sima popularized science for the two, then closed his eyes and pretended to sleep, while the two of them, whose eyes were straight, looked at each other and couldn't believe their ears for a long time.

After a while, Lao Ji sighed to Wu Ke in a low voice and said, "Brother Wu, how boring does this have to be to be interested in this thing?" Alas, at a glance, I know that Sima is the rich and noble life, born worry-free, and there is no need to go to the field to eat like we have to go! ”

Wu Ke scolded and scolded, and said angrily: "What do you know about your kid nest in Dian PΓΉ Village, do you know how to write Sima's two words?" Can you recognize those two names here? If you can recognize an egg, tell you, Sima is called learned, otherwise why is Sima an official, you can only be a soldier, or a servant! ”
