The sky collapsed, and in the blink of an eye, I found myself transported to Nanluoguxiang.

"Holy crap! Where am I?"

Wu Tian's voice rang out from inside the yurt.

Li Kaixin, Captain Wang, and Master Chen were all startled awake by the sudden sound, and the three of them turned to look at Wu Tian.

Captain Wang stood up irritably and lightly tapped Wu Tian on the head:

"What are you yelling about so early in the morning? Are you trying to ruin a person's sleep?"

Seeing that all three of them were staring at him, Wu Tian immediately shrank back and muttered under his breath:

"I thought we were drinking!"

Captain Wang was both annoyed and amused by Wu Tian's behavior.

"How dare you say that! Out of the four of us, you're the only one who's completely drunk?"

"How was I supposed to know that wine could make you drunk!" Wu Tian's voice was even softer.

Seeing this, Master Chen quickly smoothed things over: "Alright, alright, let's all keep quiet. It's normal for young people to not know their limits when drinking mare's milk wine for the first time."

Li Kaixin, who was also standing nearby, chimed in, "Are you all hungry? Why don't we cook something first?"

As he spoke, he went to light the fire in the charcoal brazier.

Captain Wang glared at Wu Tian but didn't say anything more.

There was a large pot in the yurt, and the four of them put their respective grains into it to cook.

During meals.

Wu Tian kept smiling obsequiously at Captain Wang, diligently serving him rice and handing him bowls.

"Master, is this enough? I'll get you more if you want."

Captain Wang had actually stopped being angry a long time ago.

Seeing Wu Tian's expression, he couldn't help but laugh: "Alright, alright, stop trying to curry favor."

Seeing his master smile, and remembering the excitement and delicious food of the previous night, Wu Tian immediately perked up and asked:

"Master, is there a bonfire party tonight?"

"What are you thinking? How can you eat and drink like that every day? Last night was a welcome banquet." Captain Wang glanced at Wu Tian and rubbed his forehead.

Wu Tian immediately deflated.

Seeing Wu Tian's expression, Captain Wang added, "However, they will hold a farewell party the day before he leaves."

Wu Tian immediately recovered and his ingratiating smile returned to his face.

Li Kaixin, who was eating quietly to the side, looked at Wu Tian's expression.

Thinking to himself: After following Captain Wang, Wu Tian is probably becoming more and more like a silly roe deer from Northeast China.

After breakfast.

Li Kaixin greeted his master and then headed towards the square where he had been the previous night.

From afar, we could see that Chaolu and Enhe were already waiting there.

"Brother Chaolu, Brother Enhe, sorry I'm late." Li Kaixin jogged forward.

Chao Lu laughed heartily and patted Li Kaixin on the shoulder: "It's alright, Brother Kaixin, we just arrived too."

Enhe smiled and nodded in agreement.

Seeing that Li Kaixin had already run up to them, the two of them grabbed Li Kaixin's hands on either side and headed towards the horse farm.

"Today I'm going to let you experience what it's like to gallop across the grasslands!" Chaolu said excitedly to Li Kaixin as they walked.

Upon arriving at the horse farm, Chaolu said to Li Kaixin, "Brother Kaixin, wait here. Enhe and I will fetch your horse."

Before Li Kaixin could react, the two of them ran off in a flurry.

Not long after.

Chaolu led two horses, and Enhe led one horse, and they returned to Li Kaixin.

"Happy brother, have you ever ridden a horse?" Chaolu asked with a smile.

Li Kaixin shook his head: "Let alone riding a horse, I've barely even seen one a few times."

"That's perfect!"

Chaolu's eyes lit up: "Enhe and I will teach you."

Then, Chao Enhe gave him a wink.

Enhe understood and immediately demonstrated the actions of mounting and dismounting the horse.

Li Kaixin carefully observed it several times, memorizing every detail.

As soon as Enhe finished demonstrating, Chaolu eagerly asked, "Happy Brother, did you learn it?"

"Brother Chaolu, I think I'm ready. Can I give it a try?" Li Kaixin asked eagerly.

"no problem!"

As he spoke, Chao Lu quickly took the reins, signaling Li Kaixin to mount his horse.

Li Kaixin gripped the horse's back with both hands and leaped into the air.

Although it was his first time, he managed to ride on it steadily thanks to his exceptional physical abilities.

Chaolu and Enhe were both stunned.

Recovering from his shock, Chaolu asked incredulously, "Brother Kaixin, is this really your first time riding a horse?"

Li Kaixin explained with a smile, "Brother Chaolu, this is really my first time."

In the end, the only explanation for the differences between Chaolu and Enhe can be attributed to Li Kaixin's exceptional talent.

Next, the two taught Li Kaixin how to control the direction, make the horse run and stop.

Li Kaixin learned very quickly and soon became proficient at riding horses.

When the three of them rode back on horseback.

Chao Lu exclaimed sincerely, "Brother Kaixin, if I hadn't seen how clumsy you were when you were learning to ride a horse, I would have thought you were an experienced rider."

"Brother Chaolu, you flatter me," Li Kaixin said modestly.

Enhe, standing to the side, suggested to Li Kaixin:

"Since you're riding so well, shall we go for a ride and show you the scenery of the grasslands?"

"Okay!" Li Kaixin readily agreed.

Then, the three figures appeared on the grassland as they rode their horses.

Chao Lu led the way, Li Kaixin was in the middle, and Enhe brought up the rear.

It was almost noon when the three of them returned to the horse farm.

After settling the horse in, Chaolu warmly invited, "Brother Kaixin, don't go back for lunch, come to our house for a meal."

Li Kaixin initially wanted to decline, but couldn't resist their enthusiasm, and finally had to agree.

"Then I'll go back to the yurt to get some things."

Chaolu and Enhe nodded and accompanied Li Kaixin to the outside of his yurt.

The two of them waited considerately outside the door and did not go in.

The yurt was empty; it seemed that Captain Wang and his group had gone to visit some herder.

Li Kaixin took out two bottles of Fenjiu liquor and a carton of Daqianmen cigarettes from the secret space, put them in a cloth bag, and then walked out of the yurt.

After meeting up with Chaolu and Enhe, the two led Li Kaixin to a yurt.

The two quickly stepped forward and greeted the two middle-aged men affectionately, "Father! Mother!"

Li Kaixin then learned that Chaolu and Enhe were actually brothers.

Chaolu introduced to a middle-aged man: "Father, this is Brother Kaixin, the friend we met yesterday."

The man, named Uliji, stepped forward and said warmly, "Friend, welcome to my home!"

Li Kaixin bowed respectfully: "Uncle, I'm sorry to bother you. This is just a small token of my appreciation."

He handed over the cloth bag as he spoke.

Unlike the people in Beijing, Ulji didn't accept the gift directly. This might be a sign of the Mongolians' straightforwardness; they don't have many hidden agendas.

Then, he warmly invited Li Kaixin to take a seat.

On the table were various kinds of noodles that Li Kaixin had never seen before.

Seeing Li Kaixin's surprised expression, Chaolu introduced the noodles one by one: "This is oat noodles, this is mutton offal noodles..."

Li Kaixin's belly got rounder after eating this meal.

Uliji kept asking with concern, "Friend, are you full? Would you like another bowl?"

In the end, Li Kaixin couldn't eat anymore and gave up.

After the meal, Li Kaixin sat on a felt rug to digest his food and chatted with Wuliji. He then learned that the area was near the Greater Khingan Mountains.

Uliji pointed into the distance and said, "Friend, if you go further north, you'll reach the Greater Khingan Mountains."

Li Kaixin looked in the direction Uliji was pointing and secretly memorized the information.
