Iron Snow Clouds

Chapter 519 Six Horses

Later, Tie Hongyan, Qian Rui and Wu Xunsheng tried the horses again when they were sure that there was no one around. However, this time they did not make much noise, so even if someone saw them, it would not be easily considered that they were trying the horses.

Before setting off on the day of the horse riding and archery competition, Tie Hongyan and Wu Xunsheng went to the East Horse Riding and Archery Field to find Qian Rui to lead the horses.

Qian Rui whispered, "Although I have taken good care of the horse I will ride during the competition, I still have to be careful on the way to the West Riding Shooting Range."

Tie Hongyan whispered, "Then lead a few more horses. If someone wants to attack, it's not easy to attack so many horses without letting others know. If I only pick one of the horses, the person who wants to attack won't know which one I'm going to use when I go on stage, nor will they know what to do. If the horse I'm going to ride has a problem on the way, I can use other horses I'm familiar with instead of the spare horses at the Xiqi Archery Field."

"That's it, take note." Qian Rui said.

"I want to take six horses in total, three of which I am familiar with, and I will ask Master Qian to help lead the other three. If I take six horses in total, it will be more difficult if someone wants to take them without letting anyone know. The three horses I am familiar with will be mixed in with the other horses, so that people who see them along the way will not even be sure which horses I am more familiar with."

"I'll go get you three better horses." Qian Rui said and went to get three horses that she thought were good.

"Thank you, Master Qian! I'm now thinking about how we should better lead each other." Tie Hongyan asked.

"Each person leads two horses." Qian Rui said.

"Okay." Wu Xunsheng whispered, "Which two horses should I lead?"

Tie Hongyan said, "I will lead the white horse Yueyun. In addition, I will lead the horse that Master Qian just led. This may make it easier for others to think that the horse I really want to use in the competition is one of the two horses I am leading. If necessary, I will show that I am particularly concerned about the white horse Yueyun. It is best that the two horses I am leading are not the horses I really want to use."

Wu Xunsheng said, "Let me lead the horse that is really needed. Among the three of us, I have the lowest martial arts skills and am the least good at controlling horses. Generally speaking, the horses used in the competition should be led by people with high martial arts skills or good at controlling horses to prevent accidents. If I lead the horse, it will be easier for people to guess which horse the young patriarch will use. If someone attacks the horse I lead, I will do my best to protect it. At the same time, it will be in time for the young patriarch and Master Qian to protect it immediately. It is not easy for me to lead the horse that is really used in the competition and cause any damage."

After deciding, Wu Xunsheng led the red horse Chi Heng with one hand and one of the three horses that Qian Rui had just led with the other hand. Qian Rui led the black horse Wu Xi and the remaining horse.

Tie Hongyan said, "For most of the time before the actual competition, I will act as if I will be competing on the white horse Yueyun. When I go on stage, I will suddenly ask to change horses. I will trouble you to cooperate then."

"Don't worry, I won't talk nonsense." Wu Xunsheng said.

Qian Rui said with a smile, "Okay! No problem. Young Clan Leader, the more cautious you are, the more relieved I am. I am even happier that you are so cautious. On the way, let's talk about other things and not about horses anymore. Even if someone wants to eavesdrop, they can't hear it."

"Yes! Master. Actually, that's what I was going to say." Wu Xunsheng said.
