Little Eleven, who will only be six years old until the end of the new year, feels vaguely about the subtle interactions between adults, but is completely swept away by the excitement of being able to go out to the city to play.Sitting in front of Ling Yucheng's horse, he turned his small head to the left and right, looking at the busy traffic on the street, a peddler passing by on the east side, and a fruit shop on the west side shouting at the top of his voice. Come out of the orbit.

Born in the palace, grew up in the forbidden garden.From childhood to adulthood, the only time Xiaoshi went out of the palace was when she contracted smallpox, and was carried by a loyal female officer to Xuanjiaweijun Mansion.At that time, he was dizzy with fever, and the female officer was afraid that he would catch the wind, so he was wrapped tightly all the way, how could he be able to see whatever he wanted like now?

"Master, look at that teapot! It's so big!"

"That... that's not tea, it's oil tea... it's for food, not for drinking..."

"Master, someone is spitting fire over there! Ah! It's burning, it's burning!"

"That's a hundred operas, there are also some in the palace... If you like it, the next time you go to sleep, the master told your father and asked to come and perform it for you..."

Whispering in a low voice all the way, the guards led by Ling Yucheng swept through the streets of the capital like no wind for the first time, but walked slowly to guard the adults and the little master.Passing through the city gate, the wide and straight avenue gradually becomes curved and narrow, and the stone road has also become a dusty dirt road, but the little guy is even more dizzying, with low eaves, gurgling streams, and even a bird pecking at the side of the hut. Hen can make him look at it curiously for a long time.

"Master Master, look over there! That's a duck!"

"That's not a duck, it's a goose...don't touch it. A goose pecks people better than a dog. You can't beat it..."

"Master, look at the pony! Such a small, very small horse!"

"That's a donkey, country people can't afford horses..."

The guards who lined up before and after all pursed their lips bitterly, secretly suppressing a smile.The adults always have infinite patience with this young disciple, no matter how strange questions he asks, he always answers softly with a smile.Even for this trip, it took only two days to go back and forth, and they specially brought out the prince's exclusive pony. God knows how much the pony that was less than one year old was caught in the team and slowed down the whole team.

After finally arriving at the military camp outside the city, the guards should be trained and vigilant, and the adults even took the little prince to the entrance of the village next to the military camp.As soon as his feet hit the ground, the little guy cheered sincerely:

"Master, can I go and play?"

"Of course, I brought you out just to let you have fun!"

Very good!

Immediately, a bright smile appeared on the pink and tender face raised high.

In addition to civil and military studies, I listen to fellow readers showing off how to catch crickets, dig out bird nests, pull out rush cores all over the mountains and put them in their mouths, all kinds of wonderful things that can only be found outside the palace. Here we go!

"Go! Let's go play!"

What can a group of boys at the age of ten and the youngest play with?

Dalutie patted his chest and said that he was going to catch snakes. After walking in the wild for a long time, his neck became sore, but he only found two small dark holes. Several children squatted on the ground and dug them with sticks. Nothing was unearthed.

Daur volunteered to say that he could catch fish and eat them. Except for Yuen Long who did not go into the water, everyone in the group got half soaked. In the end, only two prawns were caught—one of the prawns caught Zong in its claws. Hun's finger, Shen Zeyu squatted beside him and smashed the lower half of the shrimp with a stone, without opening the two pincers.

Yuen Long still remembers what Ling Yucheng said, "Don't touch the goose, you can't beat it", you are not allowed to touch the goose, and it is best not to touch the duck, you can always touch the chicken!Nine little boys chased and intercepted a brood of hens in all directions. The owner of the hen saw that they were all dressed in fine clothes and followed by soldiers with bows and knives on their backs, so they dared not go forward.

But the children really overestimated their force value, it's fine to peck and arrest people, the most terrible thing is that hens can fly!The one that flew the highest climbed up the tree with fluttering wings. A Qiang, who claimed to be the best at climbing trees, spit two mouthfuls into the palm of his hand and climbed up the tree. He yelled and flew down again, pounced straight on his face, and pulled chicken shit on top of his head by the way...

Not only Yuen Long, everyone, including A Qiang himself, laughed softly in the end.

A group of children collapsed into a pile on the ground, looking at each other, all of them were panting and disheveled.Ling Yucheng specifically pointed out that the five guards who had come to protect them stood with their knives on one side, without saying a word from the beginning to the end, neither helping them catch fish nor chicken, even when Zong Hui's fingers were caught Come up with an idea.However, after such a frantic follow-up all afternoon, the face that was originally hard enough to scrape off a layer of frost also quietly softened a little.

There was nothing to do in the afternoon, seeing the sun slowly setting, Yuen Long leaned against the tree trunk and couldn't help but feel a little depressed.Those who had tried and failed did not dare to speak again. Shen Zeyu and Bu Ming saw the young master's expression and gathered around him. You came up with ideas one by one:

"Otherwise, let's play war!"

"War, fight, fight every day in the palace, but you still want to play war here?"

"Or go to war on horseback?"

"Only the little master's horse was brought over, how many of us? Are we riding bamboo sticks as horses?"

"or--"

"Yes!" There was a long cry of a cow in the distance, and Shen Zeyu suddenly raised his head, pointing at the buffalo brought by the cowherd boy, his voice was trembling with excitement:

"Didn't the previous gentleman talk about the Fire Bull Formation? Let's play with this!"

"Okay!" A group of boys who watched the excitement and didn't think it was a big deal all jumped up.

Three people form a crowd, and five people form an array.

The children are all hardworking, even if some are not smart enough, they still remember clearly the content of Mr. Qian'er's lecture: "Tian Dan collected more than a thousand cattle from the city, made them into crimson woven clothes, and painted them with colorful dragon characters..." There is no need to think about more than a thousand cows. After a few people ran around, they only brought three cows, including a calf.

Yuen Long tried his best to stand on tiptoe, and saw the little calf chewing something non-stop, staring at him with moist eyes.Stretching out his hand to touch it, the calf snorted curiously, and the water foam sprayed on his fingers. Before touching it, the cow's nose was pulled away by the shepherd boy:

"My lord, don't dare to touch it! Watch out for it to bite!"

The cow is very docile in the hands of the shepherd boy, let it stand, and it will stand there obediently.Yuen Long walked around the calf twice, grabbed some grasses and carefully approached it. Seeing the calf leaning over to eat obediently, he went back to discuss with his companions how to dress up the three cows as fire cows. .

In the countryside, there is no place to find flags and quilts, and you can’t get pens and inks for a while, and you don’t even have to think about crimson silk clothes or colorful dragon patterns.The nine children bumped into each other for a long time, and finally Dalutie and A Qiang, the oldest, took off their jackets. Everyone tore and tore, and finally tore into several rags and tied them to the horns. Burned a few branches and drew some lines on the rag, which was considered to be the scene of dressing the calf in red.Next, is the main event.

Although they are boys, they are still martial arts in Beiliang, and all the children who have been educated and practiced martial arts have daggers and short knives hanging from their waists.Except for Yuen Long who didn't take off his saber, the eight children all tore off their own weapons, quarreling and scrambling to tie them to the horns:

"Use mine!"

"Use mine! Your knife is so ugly!"

"Your is ugly!"

It's not easy for you to show your white blade, but with the gold-plated inlaid treasure on the scabbard, these small knives and small swords are all extraordinary.This kind of weapon could easily be used by a few cows, and it was tied to the horns for the children's play... Xiao Ran, who was ordered to lead the guard, silently turned his face away, and really couldn't bear to watch them ruin things.

"Stop talking!" Yuen Long yelled, his little face stiffened, and he actually had a bit of aura, suppressing all the noise on the spot, "Arrange all the swords in a row, tie the longest go up!"

Things that seem boring or even absurd to adults are transparent and pure joy in the eyes of children.As soon as Yuen Long said a word, the eight small knives and small swords were immediately lined up in a row. Those who were selected were smiling, while those who were not selected were dejected, hanging their blades back on their waists like a defeated quail.Then, Xiao Ran watched Dalutie rush over first, and shouted eagerly:

"I'll tie the knife!"

Then, he slid down as a matter of course, if it wasn't for Xiao Ran's quick shot, he would have been grabbed by someone, and he would have been stepped on by a frightened and painful cow.

The second person to try was A Qiang who claimed to be good at climbing trees.His grades were much better than Dalutie's. He climbed onto the cow's back safely, but he just knelt down on the cow's neck, and before he tied something to the horn, he was thrown off. half empty.Bu Ming looked left and right, and had no choice but to stand up bravely, but he was not in a hurry to climb up, but blushed and looked at Xiao Ran:

"Uncle Xiao, can you... do me a favor?"

"Young master, this is not acceptable!"

Xiao Ran smiled and shook his head.The light in Bu Ming's eyes immediately dimmed. Just as he was about to climb up, Yuan Teng, who was half a year younger than him, grabbed the corner of his clothes:

"You," he pointed at a shepherd boy who stood tremblingly, afraid and afraid to leave, and raised his jaw: "Lead the cow to the rock!"

"Wait!" Shen Zeyu's eyes lit up, "Just let these cows kneel down!"

Including Yuen Long, the nine children rushed up cheering.

It was a messy toss again, and when a bright short knife was tied to one side of the ox's horns, and a bundle of reeds was tied to the ox's tail (for these reeds, the three children cut their fingers), the sun had completely set go down.Yuen Long looked up at the dark sky, thinking of Ling Yucheng, he was a little apprehensive, but he soon became excited again amidst the cheers of his friends:

"Light it up! Set fire to the bull formation—"

"Wan Sheng! Wan Sheng!"

"Come on—"

Flames fly.

The fire light on the ox's tail danced, and some spark ignited the rags on the ox's horns, and the whole ox seemed to be wrapped in flames.Three cattle that were in pain and frightened by the burning were lined up in a row, roaring dully, with twelve hooves stomping heavily on the ground as they rushed forward dully.Young trees and shrubs as tall as a person on the hillside, and thatched sheds and bamboo fences on the edge of the field either fell down without resistance, or were trampled to pieces by the hooves of the cows, leaving only a small residue.

When Ling Yucheng rode his horse over to look for it, he saw cows galloping in the flames. In the distance, eight companions were divided into two rows, front and rear, wrapping Yuen Long in the center, and those with swords were waving swords, while those without swords were waving Branches, yelling, followed the running bull.And behind the children, the five guards accompanying them were blowing their police whistle anxiously——

And directly in front of the three fire bulls was the village with earthen huts, even if they were prepared, they couldn't stop the fire bulls from charging with all their strength.

"Front row, hold the spear!" He took off the spear hanging from the bit without thinking, and spurred the horse to gallop up, "Back row, volley!"

Arrows screamed and blood sprayed.The leading steer was hit by arrows in both eyes, still covered in flames, and slammed into it according to inertia.Ling Yucheng took a deep breath, screaming with both arms, the spear pierced straight into the bull's head, and the mount hissed back five or six steps in a row, finally counteracting the momentum.Before he could recover, Ling Yucheng sternly shouted at the opposite side:

"Don't come here!"

The three cows fell under the gun and the spear one after another.Ling Yucheng watched from afar through the still beating flames, and Xiao Ran grabbed the terrified Yuen Long by his collar, dancing and shouting:

"Master!"
