Song Dekui took off the saddles of the two horses, loosened their bits, and let them eat grass.
Song Liyun began to look for a place to set up camp.
The old horse is tired, and it also reminds the owner to find a safe place to rest before dark.
The reason why it chooses a rocky place is because there is little grass here, the field of view is wide, and it can avoid sneak attacks by natural enemies such as jackals hidden in the grass.
"Tsk, tsk, tsk, Xiaoyun, this old horse is quite famous!"
Song Dekui came back with his saddle in his arms. He saw that the place was flat and spacious, but there were many rocks and there was no place to stand. He frowned and said, "Xiaoyun, how can we do this? Can your cabin accommodate it?"
Song Liyun also came over, looked at the pile of stones the size of a human head, and nodded: "It's okay, just move these stones away, and you will find a flat land, and these stones can be used to fix the feet of the house."
As she spoke, she took out a silver pouch from her arms...
"etc!"
Song Dekui's eyes widened, he dropped his saddle and jumped over.
Song Liyun was a little puzzled.
Seeing Song Dekui running to his side, he first wiped his hands vigorously in his armpits, then respectfully held the small silver bag in his hands and knelt down.
I saw him murmuring with his eyes closed: "The Immortal must keep us safe! From now on, the common people will choose the fattest and fattest of the three animal sacrifices every year, and the most expensive and thickest incense candles." After saying this, there were three bangs.
.
"well!"
Song Liyun smiled bitterly.
The reason why Song Dekui dared to venture into the grassland with him was because of this small silver bag.
It is the lucky bag of the "Budai Monk" as Song Zhenping calls it.
Ever since Song Liyun decided to keep Uncle Kui, she had discussed with Song Zhenping that she had to tell him about the "lucky bag", otherwise it would be troublesome to deal with many things and explain them later.
Moreover, in the hearts of the three siblings, Song Dekui is considered the only trustworthy relative of the Song family.
Song Liyun was still cautious in letting Song Zhenping accept this "magic product".
Unexpectedly, when Song Dekui heard about the lucky bag that could store things, he believed it instantly.
He even knelt down and kowtowed when he saw Song Liyun showing off his "magic skills".
After all, the saying "the universe is contained in a bag" was said by Song Dekui himself at the Budai Monk Temple outside Suijin Town, and was only borrowed by Song Liyun.
Nowadays, the small temple is very prosperous, and Song Dekui also contributed a lot to it.
Since ancient times, people have burned incense and kowtowed, worshiping only the desires and fears in their hearts. It doesn't matter whether they kneel before gods or objects.
After overeating, Song Dekui respectfully handed the small bag back to Song Liyun. Not afraid of the cold and hard ground, he knelt straight and said with bright eyes: "Xiaoyun, show me the show quickly!"
What he liked most was watching those objects suddenly disappear and reappear, just like juggling at a temple fair, which made him excited.
But every time he thought like this, Song Dekui felt that he was insulting the divine creature.
As expected of a smart man, Song Dekui finally came up with a good idea, that is, as long as Song Liyun uses the "magic bag", he will kneel on the ground and watch.
Song Liyun was speechless at this guy's nonsense!
She didn't waste any time. As soon as her hand touched it, the pile of stones disappeared instantly, leaving behind a piece of sand.
The old horse lying in the pile of rocks was frightened by this strange situation. He let out a long cry of "Xili Li", and as if he had changed his soul, he jumped up nimbly and fled into the distance.
Song Dekui also jumped up and ran after the horse's butt while shouting: "A pound of salt is gone!"
One person and one horse quickly ran into the grass.
Song Liyun suddenly became anxious!
Lao Ma is his eyes on the grassland and cannot make mistakes.
Also, Song Dekui was running around on the grassland with his bare hands, so it would be dangerous if he encountered a jackal.
Song Liyun no longer paid attention to the pile of stones, quickly pulled the Juqing horse next to him, got on his horse, and chased after the old horse and Song Dekui.
The bay red horse is a mare with a gentle temperament. Zhao Tingduo originally gave it to Song Liyun, but now she and Ju Qing have become good friends.
It saw the Juqing horse running, and the husband and wife also ran beside it.
Song Liyun quickly caught up with Song Dekui with two horses: "Uncle Kui, mount the horse!"
Song Dekui was running so hard that his tongue was sticking out, and he was panting with his mouth wide open. When he saw the bay red horse coming to him, he quickly pulled the reins and got on the horse: "Xiaoyun...that old salt has a ghost."
What does "Old Salt have ghosts" mean?
When Song Liyun chased after him, he found something strange indeed. The horse was obviously running tremblingly and crookedly, as if it would fall to death in the next second, but it didn't die.
Song Liyun and Song Dekui went around for several times but couldn't catch it.
There were even times when the old horse had stood still, but as soon as the person approached, it rushed out of the encirclement with a dying struggle.
The more Song Liyun grasped, the more frightened he became. Lao Ma seemed to be able to guess human thoughts, and his IQ was frighteningly high.
It can be seen that it has rich experience in dealing with this kind of siege. It is unknown how many times it has escaped from wolves in its life.
Fortunately, no matter how good the old horse is, it is still an old horse. After tossing back and forth for more than ten minutes, it finally lost its strength and Song Dekui took the opportunity to put on the bridle.
He was led back to Shitan with a look of death.
After all this trouble, Song Liyun didn't dare to have any accidents. He first drove down a wooden stake and tied the old horse up, and then continued his work of cleaning up the foundation of the house.
Soon, about thirty square meters of open space was sorted out. Song Liyun held a small silver bag and shook it. A neat stack of double-sided wooden plywood and long wooden pillars with deep grooves were placed on the ground.
Song Dekui couldn't even turn his eyes at this time. When he saw that the wooden board had been taken out, he stopped kneeling and hurriedly stepped forward to do his work.
The wooden pillars are spliced one by one with slots, and then tied with cowhide rope to form a long board house frame. Finally, the wall panels with paper cores in the middle of the wooden boards on both sides are fixed into the frame.
Song Liyun asked Carpenter Mu to build the simple board house in a month.
Due to technical and raw material problems, a prefabricated house only has an area of ten square meters, barely enough for one person.
Song Liyun took out the materials from two sets of wooden houses and quickly assembled them into two independent cabins.
The cabins are placed three meters apart, thus forming an open space in the middle of the cabins.
Then the front and back were connected and fixed with wooden rods, and a few wooden boards were put on the top. The open space became a stable, and the three horses had a place to shelter from wind and rain.
In this way, if there is any movement outside, the people living in the huts on both sides will be able to notice it immediately, and they can also find the horses to respond immediately.
While assembling the prefabricated house, Song Dekui exclaimed: "Xiaoyun, why do you think of using wooden boards sandwiched with paper to make walls and build this mobile house?
People say moving overnight, now you can move overnight."
Song Liyun smiled softly: "I thought that the Di people in the grassland lived in yurt tents that were easy to transport, so naturally I wanted to make a house that was easy to dismantle and assemble.
Uncle Kui, even though this house is made of wooden boards, as long as it is built up, it will be more comfortable than living in a damp and stuffy underground house."
In fact, Song Liyun has had this idea since the last time he stayed temporarily for a few nights at the entrance of Huangsha River Valley and begged his nanny to build a yurt for him.
