"Really?" Jiang Run had a smile in his eyes and looked at her with an arrogant expression.
"certainly."
"Okay, I believe you."
Ye Fu took out the sweater and socks crocheted for him, "Look, what is this?"
"Newly made?"
"Yes, you should also have what others have."
Although Ye Fu estimates that it will only take more than 20 days to get out of the Yaxi River Basin, the further east you go, the narrower the river becomes and thin ice begins to appear on the water surface. Everyone is worried that the latter part of the river basin will be blocked by ice and snow, so they can only leave on foot, or
Wait until the ice and snow melt.
The fishing boat sailed for another three days, and the width of the water surface was only fifty meters. Wan Tao and Liu Zhang came over to discuss countermeasures with Ye Fu.
"Thin ice has begun to form on the water surface, the width is getting narrower and narrower, and the temperature has been dropping. What should we do if the waterway in front is blocked by glaciers?"
"Don't worry, let's do this. If it's really blocked, we'll stay on the boat for the time being, but we have to pull the boat to the shore. We might freeze to death if we leave on foot. If it's just the glacier that's blocking the way, I have a way."
Ye Fu took out his telescope and looked at the distance. The water flow was twisty and the place he could see was limited. He could only take one step at a time.
"I'm afraid that the extreme cold will end in a while. Once the small glacier arrives, we will be stranded halfway." Wan Tao frowned. He roughly calculated the next journey, and he could enter in another half month's walk.
Within our country.
Everyone discussed it for several hours, but no one could come up with a good solution.
Ye Fu suddenly had an idea, "We should still be able to find horses on the shore. Let Fang Ming stop the boat and dock. Jiang Run and I will go to the forest to have a look. If we can find horses, we can go back even if the glacier closes the road."
Ye Fu did what she said and immediately informed Fang Ming to drive the boat to the shore. She called Jiang Run and planned to go to the forest to find the horses.
"I'll go with you. I can ride a horse and should be able to help." Fang Ming put on his hat and looked eager to try.
"I'll go too." Fang Wei also stood up, "I can also ride a horse."
Others also wanted to go, but Ye Fu refused, "Just the four of us can go. The others are on standby on the boat. Don't get off the boat. There are snow leopards in the mountains."
After being fully armed from head to toe, the four people disembarked from the boat and left. It was very difficult to walk through the icy and snowy mountains and forests, and the snow was so thick that if you were not careful, your whole body would fall into it.
After walking for almost half an hour, Ye Fu found some horse manure.
"There are traces of horses here. Let's look for them nearby. Don't go alone or run too far."
Ye Fu and Jiang Run went to the left, Fang Ming and Fang Wei went to the right. Everyone had a whistle and blew it immediately when in danger.
There are still some footprints on the snow, and ice chains are hung on the trees in the mountain forest. Under these conditions, the horses can still survive as herbivores, and their survival ability is no less than that of humans.
"Over there." Jiang Run took Ye Fu's hand and led her forward.
"Jiang Run, can you ride a horse?"
"Won't."
Ye Fu smiled and said, "I don't know how to do it either, but if I really see a herd of horses, I'll have to join in even if I don't know how to do it."
"If you encounter a musk ox now, you can tame it and use it as a mount. It's so cold that you can't drive the car."
Ye Fu muttered as she walked. Twenty minutes later, she and Jiang Run came to a valley, where horses were eating leaves. They hit the trees with their bodies, shaking off the snow and ice chains, and the trees were
After breaking, you can eat the green leaves.
Ye Fu stared at the horses and counted them. There were only six horses, which was not enough.
"The big black and red horse should be the boss among them. As long as you tame it, the other horses will automatically follow. I have seen documentaries. This kind of fierce horse has a bad temper and only surrenders to very capable humans.
"
Ye Fu looked at Jiang Run, who raised his eyebrows and seemed to be in a good mood.
"I go."
Ye Fu pursed his lips and smiled, "Come on, I'll tame the other maroon horse."
The two sneaked up behind the horses. Jiang Run took advantage of the horses not paying attention and jumped on the back of the black and red horse. The horse started to roar and wanted to throw him off, but Jiang Run held on to the mane tightly and held on to his body.
Sticking to the horse's back, holding the horse's belly with both legs, the powerful aura exuding from his body instantly shocked the black and red horse.
The other horses were impatient and restless. Ye Fu also rushed over at this time. The bay red horse was very tall and she needed very good jumping ability to climb up. Ye Fu grabbed the mane and threw his whole body onto the horse's back.
.
The bay red horse also had a bad temper. Ye Fu took out a whip and gave it a gentle whip. The bay red horse became even more angry and started to run. It tried to throw Ye Fu off with its tail. Ye Fu followed Jiang's example.
She clung to its back with a redundant look, and she was about to be thrown off several times. Ye Fu held on to its mane and kicked its neck. The bay-red horse was completely irritated by Ye Fu and let out an angry expression.
roar.
"Don't be angry. Come with me. I'll take you on a trip abroad. Maybe you can see the prairie. It's freezing and snowy here. It's not fun at all." Ye Fu started to lie.
Half an hour later, the bay red horse was tired from being tortured by Ye Fu and had to succumb to Ye Fu's clutches.
Back in the valley, Jiang Run had tamed the remaining four horses.
"Ye Fu, are you okay?"
"It's okay, I've succeeded, but my pants are torn from riding a horse."
Jiang Run couldn't laugh or cry, "Then let's go back first. Do you want to choose this horse?"
Ye Fu nodded, "It's called Xiaozao, and it will be my mount from now on. Jiang Run, please give your horse a name."
Jiang Run thought for a long time, "Then let's call her Fufu, blessing of blessings."
Ye Fu...
"Just kidding, its name is Xiao Hei."
Ye Fu was even more speechless.
"It's very good. It sounds great. Let's go."
Ye Fu looked at the horses following Ye Fu and couldn't help but click his tongue.
She tamed one horse, and Jiang Run tamed five, with a relaxed look on her face. She was almost exhausted, and her thighs also hurt a little, and her buttocks were uncomfortable.
"I need to make some saddles. I don't know how to do this. Let's go back and ask Fang Ming and Fang Wei."
Ye Fu took out his whistle and blew it twice. After a while, two responses came from the distance.
Back in front of the fishing boat, everyone stood on the deck and were stunned when they saw the horses that Ye Fu and Jiang Run had pulled back.
"Did you really find the horses?"
"Just find six horses, pull up the deck guardrail, and then go to the mountains to cut down some trees to make a simple horse pen. There are also leaves, so we need to cut down more."
"Let's go over and get the leaves. You two can rest for a while. Where are Fang Ming and the others?"
Ye Fu took off his foggy goggles and said, "On the mountain on the right, I heard a whistle. We should be back soon. There are not enough horses. There are ten of us, two people riding one horse, but we also have to haul supplies.
, rest here for two days, and then go to the mountains to see if we can find a few more horses."
Everyone built a ladder with wooden planks to make it easier for the horses to board the boat. Officers Wu Pei and Song were already cutting branches with knives, and Wan Tao and Liu Zhang were building guardrails.
