In the afternoon of that day, Qin Xiao did not train with the soldiers at the racecourse, but found a relatively secluded grassland where Geng Shao would demonstrate and explain.

After all, he is a member of the riding school. If he trains with the soldiers, everyone will inevitably feel contempt when they see his embarrassed appearance while riding.

Qin Xiao made it clear to his team members last night that he was very poor at horseback riding and archery. It was precisely because of this confession that the team members, instead of being disdainful, felt that the riding school master was very sincere.

Therefore, when it comes to training, a few members of the team are responsible for it and there is no need to trouble the riding school adults to personally supervise it.

Geng Shao indeed had extraordinary horse skills.

"The Tusun people are outstanding in their horse skills, not because they are smart." Geng Shao said: "In my opinion, the most important reason is that they have lived with horses since they were young. It is said that the Tusun people live on horses.

This is true for people who have lived with horses every day since childhood. No matter how stupid they are, they have already developed a tacit understanding with horses, and their horse skills will naturally not be any worse."

"So it's still the same sentence. The strength of equestrian skills is not how good your skills are, but how deep the tacit understanding you have with your horse. Equestrian skills are over and over again, but there are only those routines, and there are no big new tricks.

Come on. Some people practice for three to five years, but it is not as good as someone who practices for half a year. There is only one reason, and that is that the emotions between humans and horses are different."

Qin Xiao has accepted Geng Shao's thoughts on the art of horse training.

The skills of horse control are just some movements. The highest state of equestrianism is the unity of man and horse. To achieve this, you must have deep feelings and a high degree of tacit understanding with your horse.

In other words, as soon as you make a move, the horse will know what your next move will be, and will try its best to cooperate with your next move. Similarly, you should immediately understand any movements and reactions of your own horse.

It means and helps it achieve its purpose.

People and horses not only need mutual understanding, but also absolute trust.

This is not only achieved by technical proficiency.

The technical movements demonstrated by Geng Shao himself were naturally very standard. When he first started, Geng Shao did not teach too complicated movements. These relatively simple movements were really not a big deal for Qin Xiao. By dusk

, he has roughly mastered some simple technical essentials, and under the supervision of Geng Shao, he can do it very smoothly.

"My lord is not only able to miraculously tame the Black Overlord, but he also has a very high understanding of equestrian skills and indeed has a very high talent." When the two of them rested, Geng Shao sincerely admired: "When I first learned equestrian skills, these movements

It took me three days to learn it.”

Qin Xiao thought to himself that you and I are indeed different. It's not that I'm much smarter than you. The key is that after being trained by the ape father-in-law in the mountains, I can immediately do many moves that others can't do, and moves that others can't understand.

, but I can react quickly.

"By the way, when the Black Overlord passed by the commander's tent today, I saw a man who didn't look like someone from the camp." Qin Xiao rested at this moment and thought of the scribe who was standing next to Yuan Shangrong before: "You can

Know who in the camp is wearing a kaftan...!”

As soon as Qin Xiao finished speaking, Geng Shao said, "Are you talking about Deputy Commander Liu?"

"Vice Commander Liu?"

"Master Liu Wenxuan." Geng Shao said with certainty: "Master Liu has been the deputy commander of the White Tiger Camp ten years ago. It is said that most of the military regulations in the camp were formulated by Master Liu himself."

Qin Xiao was surprised and said: "So powerful?"

"Master Liu is the confidant of the old Marquis." Geng Shao lowered his voice: "It is said that his relationship with the old Marquis is not as close as that of the commander. Since I entered the camp, I have rarely seen him a few times a year.

He is elusive and does not live in the camp. He only comes to visit occasionally, but no one can tell when he will come and when he will leave."

"That's really mysterious."

"Yes, when we thought he was not in the camp, he might suddenly appear next to you." Geng Shao said, "When we thought he was nearby, we couldn't see him for several months."

Qin Xiao touched his chin and whispered: "Does this count as leaving the post without permission? If it had been someone else, he would have been kicked out of the camp long ago."

"All commanders must abide by the military regulations in the camp." Geng Shao said: "However, Deputy Commander Liu seems to be outside the scope of military regulations. But there is nothing to say. He is the confidant of the old marquis. Even if he violates military regulations,

Who dares to do anything to him? What's more, if he does this, it is impossible for the old Marquis not to know that if he wanted to punish him, the position of deputy commander would have been gone long ago." He smiled faintly and said: "Vice Commander Liu's position is as secure as a mountain.

, even the commander is not as stable as him, and I heard...!" The words came to an abrupt end, and he did not continue.

Qin Xiao was afraid that others would say something half-heartedly, and knew that what Geng Shao said later must be very important, but this guy obviously had taboos and it was difficult to continue talking.

Naturally, he would not show that he wanted to know what he was going to say next. He just grabbed a handful of grass from the ground, looked up at the setting sun, and said casually: "What did you hear?"

Seeing that Qin Xiao was calm and composed, Geng Shao hesitated for a moment and hesitated to speak. Qin Xiao turned to look at him and smiled like a spring breeze: "It's nothing, it's just the two of us. I just hope to know more about Baihu Camp."

"I heard that... Vice Commander Liu's duty is not to lead the troops, but to be the eyes and ears arranged by the old marquis in Baihu Camp." Geng Shao said: "Some people say that the old marquis is worried that some people in Baihu Camp are disobedient and may even treat Yu Wen.

There were complaints at home, so Deputy Commander Liu would haunt Baihu Camp like a ghost from time to time, just to see if anyone was speaking ill of the Yuwen family behind their backs. I also heard that Deputy Commander Liu had many eyes and ears in this camp. These people

They are all people arranged by Deputy Commander Liu. When Deputy Commander Liu is not in the camp, these people are the spies. No matter who says something bad about the Yuwen family, Deputy Commander Liu will soon know about it, and he will report it to the boss.

Lord Marquis."

Qin Xiao's heart trembled, and he whispered: "In this case, Deputy Commander Liu is not a spy?" Liu Wenxuan had said a few words for him before, and he looked like a gentle scribe, so Qin Xiao fell in love with him.

I had a slight fondness for him, but when I heard Geng Shao say this, I felt a chill running down my spine.

"The riding school, I just listened to their private discussion, I'm not sure whether it's true or not." Geng Shao whispered: "But... there is something that is really weird."

"Oh?" Qin Xiao became more energetic: "What's the matter?"

Geng Shao looked around to make sure no one was paying attention, and then whispered: "Of course the riding school doesn't know. Before me, the riding school of Huo Ziqi was Luo Riding School."

Qin Xiao knew that Geng Shao had been riding in Huoziqi for half a year, but he really didn't know who he was before him.

But it's a little strange why he would mention this at this time.

"The Luo Cavalry School is still in the camp?" Qin Xiao asked.

Above the riding school, there is the deputy commander. Apart from the elusive Liu Wenxuan, there is only one deputy commander in the camp, Su Chao. So of course Luo riding school did not leave the Huozi Cavalry because of promotion.

Could it be that Luo Riding School, like Geng Shao, was inferior in skills and was replaced by Geng Shao?

Geng Shao pulled Luo Riding School down and replaced Geng Shao himself. If this is true, it would be interesting.

"He's gone a long time ago." Geng Shao's expression became strange: "More than a month before I took up the riding school, there was no more news about him. He suddenly disappeared from the camp. No one dared to ask more questions afterwards, and there was no

People will mention it again.”

Qin Xiao was startled and said in surprise: "Disappear? I don't understand what you mean. What do you mean by disappearing?"

Geng Shao thought for a while and finally said: "It was not just one person from the Luo Riding School who disappeared that time, there were three others. These four people were all powerful characters in the camp who were skilled in bows and horses. The Luo Riding School...!"

"After a pause, he continued: "Luo Qixiao is extremely powerful. Although he has never moved the Tiger Suppressing Stone, he is recognized by everyone as a strong man."

Qin Xiao felt more and more strange and asked hurriedly: "You mean, Luo Riding School and the other three people suddenly disappeared and there is no news?"

"That's right." Geng Shao said: "However, there are private rumors that the four people from the Luo Cavalry School seemed to have received the order of Deputy Commander Liu and secretly left the barracks. After leaving, they never came back. Over at the barracks, Commander Yuan also

There was no investigation on the matter, but the vacancy was filled. One day, several people gathered to discuss the matter. When Commander Yuan found out, each of them was beaten with thirty military sticks, and two of them were crippled and given pens directly.

Yinzi was driven out of the camp, and no one mentioned the matter since then."

Qin Xiao felt a chill run down his spine after hearing this. He thought for a moment and then asked in a low voice: "After that, did anyone else disappear for no reason?"

"Not after that, but I heard that the same thing happened before the four people from the Luo Riding School disappeared." Geng Shao looked unnatural, obviously feeling that he shouldn't say more: "Although there is no evidence

, but everyone who knows these things feels that it is related to Vice Commander Liu, but no one dares to mention this matter again...!" At this point, Geng Shao's voice stopped abruptly.

Qin Xiao saw a strange expression on Geng Shao's face, and even cold sweat broke out on his forehead. He was a little strange. Seeing his pupils dilated slightly, he couldn't help but follow his gaze. Under the setting sun, he saw a figure not far away.

Stand.

The man in gray robes and elegant temperament turned out to be the Liu Wenxuan that Geng Shao was talking about.

Qin Xiao originally had a good impression of Liu Wenxuan, but after Geng Shao's words, he felt very strange. At this moment, he suddenly saw Liu Wenxuan suddenly appearing like a ghost, and he was really surprised.

Under the setting sun, Liu Weixuan stood with the backlight, and his face looked a little dim or even blurry.

Qin Xiao and Geng Shao both stood up and raised their hands towards Liu Wenxuan. Liu Wenxuan was like a stone sculpture. He didn't make any movement at first and seemed to just stare at the two of them.

Qin Xiao and Geng Shao were both shocked to see this.

After a short while, I saw Liu Wenxuan nodding slightly towards this side, as if to say hello, but without saying a word, he turned around and walked away slowly.

Qin Xiao and Geng Shao breathed a sigh of relief and glanced at each other, only to find that cold sweat broke out on each other's foreheads.
