When Shi Meng saw Ma Gui, he smiled and looked at Chu Fan, and introduced:

"My cousin Chu Fan, you can do whatever he says."

"The little old man has met Mr. Chu."

Ma Gui bowed to Chu Fan and said:

"The little old man takes you to the back mountain to choose horses, and it's still more than half a mile away. Should Mr. Chu ride a horse to take a look, or should the little old man pick it up and lead it over?"

"What a few steps are worth, let's take a look together." Chu Fan smiled slightly and nodded in return.

"Okay, then please ask two nobles to follow the old man to the back mountain."

Lead the way by Ma Gui, take the detour from the side of the blue brick mansion and walk behind.

The smell of horse manure and sour smell became stronger. I saw that there were dense wooden fences of more than one person on the left and right sides, leaving a three-meter-wide road in the middle. About one hundred meters away was another row of wooden fences in front, and a small hill behind it. It turned out that the horses in this horse farm were surrounded by two large circles and one small circle of wooden fences.

Not only were there horses in the fence, but there were also a few monkeys tied up.

Chu Fan was so happy that he really saw "Bi Ma Wen".

The ancients liked to put monkeys in horse herds, believing that they could prevent horses from getting sick. "Bimawen" is a homonym for "avoiding horse plague". However, the lively and leaping of monkeys can indeed enhance the vitality of the horse herd, similar to the "catfish effect".

The Great God Chu watched curiously for a while, twisted his fingers, and threw a wink at Shi Meng.

Shi Meng understood, took a few steps forward, stuffed a piece of broken silver for Ma Gui, and said, "Thank you brother to remind me that Huang Pi is very good to ride on a horse, and once carried our family out of danger."

Ma Gui refused for a few seconds and happily put the money in his arms and proudly introduced:

"There are more than 700 horses and pack horses on the right side, more than 500 fast horses on the left side, and more than 100 top-quality horses on the front side. Although it is not as good as the horse farm in the north, it is a scorpion shit in Qingyun County, and it is the only one. Can you tell me why other people's horses only cost thirty-five taels of silver and fast horses only cost 70 taels of silver, but our family wants forty taels of silver and eighty taels of silver, and there is still a shortage of supply?"

Seeing Ma Gui keeping him in hiding, Shi Meng frowned, but Chu Fan smiled and said:

"Yunxi Horse Farm is well-known and is said to produce military horses..."

At this time, only the sound of "bang bang bang, bang bang bang" was heard, and there were people beating drums and drums in the wooden fences in the left and right fronts. Strangely, the horse was not panicked and ran around.

Chu Fan asked in wonder, "What are you doing?"

Ma Gui smiled and said:

"Our horses are indeed raised according to the requirements of military horses, and they send 300 horses to the border every year. Without orders, they are still as moving as mountains. During wars, the mountains roaring and tsunami are the most afraid of scaring horses. Even if the horses run fast and can drag heavy chariots, once they are frightened, they will overturn the people and overturn the car, and they will not be dead?"

Chu Fan stretched out his thumb and said with a smile:

"Hahaha, whenever there is a calmness in the event of major events, your horse should be worth so much money."

Seeing that he praised him, Ma Gui became more and more proud, so he walked around and said:

"When we beat the drum in the morning, the horses will automatically run out of the stable. When the gongs are ringing at dusk, they will automatically return to the stable."

"Oh, what's the point?"

"Beat the drum to fight, and call the gold to withdraw the troops."

"No, not bad..." Chu Fan asked with great joy: "My brother has a tough look. I must have joined the army and participated in the Yunxiyuan Battle."

"Hehe, I'm ashamed. The old man only fought a battle in Qinghe Township, Yangwu County. He was unable to cut off a head, but his shoulder was shot and he couldn't go to the battlefield. Over the years, sometimes he thought, if he had made military achievements, why should he raise a horse again? It was a matter of hardship. Sometimes he thought, eight out of ten brothers who had made military achievements died in Yunxi, Cangnan, Yaoping, Jianning, what qualifications did the little man sigh? Alas, let alone the blood grinding of Yunxiyuan, just this horse farm under his feet was sorted out eight years ago, and it was also full of bones."

Chu Fan asked twice:

"Then you are not afraid of ghosts and ghosts when you stay in the horse farm for many years? I heard that there are too many people dead on the battlefield, and there are often ghosts wandering around, and I don't know whether it is true or false."

Upon hearing this, Ma Gui's face changed drastically and he walked away for a while. Seeing that for the sake of Yin, he stopped and waited again, turned around and saw that there was no one behind him, and said in a low voice:

"To be honest, the old man really saw the ghost soldiers passing through the border."

It was a full moon night three months ago, without a trace of wind and the weather was stuffy.

Ma Gui woke up in the middle of the night and couldn't sleep. He walked on the grassland. He was confused and turned to Qingshakou and saw a group of people walking in a line across the other side of Yunxi a mile away.

Under the bright moonlight, the armor and spears in the palms are clearly distinguishable.

With Ma Gui's experience of joining the army, he immediately recognized that this was the most elite cavalry school under the command of Marquis Li. Ten people are one fire, ten fires are one team, five teams are one battalion, and five battalions are one army.

What's strange is that the team of men walked in a quiet night without making a sound.

Straws of green air lingered around, making these figures look a little thin and a little illusory.

The gloomy thing is that they look like they are riding on horses, but they can't see the war horses under their crotch, like a string of shadow puppets hanging slowly across the river.

Even though Ma Gui saw the sea of ​​corpses and blood, this time his hair stood up and his blood was almost frozen. He covered his mouth and lay in the grass without even moving.

He counted and found that there were exactly one hundred "people", a complete formation.

The sun is the most yang, and the moon is the most yin.

On the full moon night, the time when the yin energy is at its peak.

There is no doubt that this is a transit of the ghost soldiers.

The 100-man team was clearly the Knights School who died in Yunxiyuan.

The next day, Ma Gui told Manager Lin about this matter, and was scolded so much that he almost got whipped. Manager Lin said, don’t talk nonsense, be careful to affect the business of the horse farm.

Ma Gui himself felt that he might be confused after drinking and regarded the shadow of the tree as a shadow. But he lent him the courage to choose another full moon night and verify this matter.

"Hey, please see, two distinguished guests. Qingshakou is ahead. I saw Yunxi River a mile away from the exit. There was a large stone bridge on the stream before. After walking ten miles across the stream, the shape gradually narrowed. It is called Yunxi Valley and is the boundary of our Yangwu County. After the narrowest section, it suddenly became widened, and it is called Yunxiyuan and belongs to the boundary of Cangnan County."

Ma Gui pointed forward.

Chu Fan and Shi Meng followed him to the side of the mountain bag and saw two low-high peaks about a hundred feet away, and the road in the middle was only three feet wide.

"Don't look at Qingshakou inconspicuously, it's a little bit big. In order to capture it, thousands of people died. In the hot weather, they stood on the entrance and were also cold wind. After the county government erected a monument to enter, many people broke through Qingshakou and entered Yunxi Valley, but never came back. After the horse farm was established, we usually stopped it when we saw outsiders breaking the ban. Because according to the law, if people break the ban and do not stop it, they will be punished. In recent years, no one dared to go in without returning."
