Chapter 755 Horse Racing. Continued
Although Zhang Bo and Zhuge Yun wanted to refute, they had to admit that what those people said was true.

Knowing this so clearly, I feel even more unwilling to accept it.

……

"Wow~"

There were loud exclamations and whistles from the crowd.

It turned out that the tall and thin boy took down the flag, loosened the reins with both hands, placed the flag in front of his chest, and bowed to salute.

Gentleman and handsome.

The raised eyebrows reveal a great deal of assertiveness.

It aroused more and more cheers.

……

But, the next second, "Ah~"

The expressions on people's faces instantly turned into horror, and the woman's scream cut through the sky.

……

"Yu~"

The black horse staggered on its front legs.

The tall and thin man lost his grip on the reins and leaned back. Just as he was about to fall, he grabbed the reins with his hands waving wildly.

Then, he hooked his feet into the stirrups and threw himself onto the horse's neck.

……

“Tap, tap, tap~”

The black horse regained its composure and started running quickly again.

……

A series of changes happened in a flash.

The crisis was over before the exclamations from the onlookers had even died down.

……

Everyone was stunned for a moment and then breathed a sigh of relief.

Although they were not involved in the incident, they all had a frightened expression on their faces.

……

"I don't know whether to say that this kid from the Zhang family is unlucky or lucky?"

Wang Tong slowly relaxed his frown, "But at least everything is alright in the end, this kid is still lucky."

……

Lucky?
Xiao Xiao raised the corner of his mouth slightly, his eyes falling on the body that had crossed the starting line, which was also the finish line.

……

If the monster had not grabbed the reins into the tall and thin man's hands, even if the man had been able to hook his foot into the stirrup with his own strength and not fall off the horse, he would have been badly tortured and might even have been injured.

Of course, there is a greater possibility that you will be thrown off the horse in the end.

……

Looking at the pale-faced man who crossed the finish line and was helped off the horse by his companions, Xiao Xiao thought, this is indeed a lucky guy.

"Well done, youngest."

Zhang Bo and Zhuge Yun slapped Zhao Luzheng hard after he got off his horse.

Zhao Luzheng's figure swayed, and the smile on his face was also a little excited, "It's just good luck."

It was because that guy relied on his good riding skills, or maybe he looked down on him, so he made unnecessary movements.

Instead, he took the opportunity to "get the advantage".

"only-"

Zhao Luzheng sighed slightly, "Even so, it's just a draw."

"Just one more draw would be nice."

Zhuge Yun was eager to try.

One more draw and they win.

"Hey."

Zhang Bo's eyes twitched slightly, "Don't you think our requirements are getting lower and lower?"

I was thinking about winning a game before, but now I just want a draw.

"no way."

Zhuge Yun spread his hands, "Who told us that our hardware and software can't compare with theirs?"

Not to mention the difference in rider ability, the opponents' horses are all a level higher than theirs.

"We must recognize the gap in strength between the enemy and us."

Although he was a little unwilling, Zhang Bo had to admit that Zhuge Yun was correct.

The other party's strength is indeed better than theirs.

The greatest victory is not losing.

Zhang Bo looked at the man who was leading the horse to the back of the starting line.

He has handsome features and a tall figure.

Sensing a gaze that was different from that of the others, the other person turned his head and, not surprisingly, met Zhang Bo's gaze.

The next second, a natural and friendly smile appeared on the other person's face.

Zhang Bo nodded slightly to him, then looked at Zhuge Yun, "The youngest guy was lucky to get a draw." "Don't let your guard down."

This opponent doesn't look like the type to make stupid mistakes.

Moreover, with the lessons learned from the past, the other party will only be more cautious.

Unless you are really arrogant to a certain extent.

"I know."

Zhuge Yun nodded.

Some things happen once but not twice, how can they happen frequently?

Naturally, he hoped that his opponent would encounter a small accident like his previous companion.

As long as I can delay the opponent's speed, it will be fine.

However, he also knew that instead of pinning his hopes on illusory prayers, what he should do more is to cooperate well with his horse and run a race that would not leave him with regrets.

"Second brother, don't force yourself, just do your best."

Zhao Lu was worried that his second brother, who was always the most unreliable, would be too reckless, so he reminded him.

"I have money."

Xiao Xiao said quite seriously.

Zhang Bo:.
Zhuge Yun:
Zhao Luzheng:
Facing the strange gazes of several people, Xiao Xiao remained calm, without a trace of unnaturalness.

"Third brother, it's really unlike you to say such a grandiose thing."

Zhuge Yun didn't know whether to laugh or cry, "Don't worry, I know my limits."

"But for just one game, I won't try my best."

"Besides, we are just novices, so there is nothing to be ashamed of even if we lose."

"Besides, as long as the third one wins."

"How can we be embarrassed?"

"As for treating everyone to a meal, isn't that just going back to the days before liberation?"

"What are you afraid of?"

Zhuge Yun walked forward with great strides, leading the horse with a carefree look on his face.

One step, two steps, and he stopped.

Before everyone could get confused, Zhuge Yun turned around with a mournful expression on his face, "That guy looks tough."

"Brothers, we may really have to live on instant noodles for the rest of this semester."

Xiao Xiao and the other two:
Zhao Luzheng's game results did not surprise everyone.

Having learned from the previous game's lesson, the opposing player won the victory steadily.

"hey-hey."

Zhuge Yun laughed awkwardly a few times, then lowered his head, "Let's eat more for dinner today."

"Because, in the days ahead, until we return home, we can only eat coarse food."

Zhang Bo and Zhao Luzheng:.
“It was just a little bit short!”

Zhuge Yun muttered unwillingly.

Just a little bit?

Xiao Xiao turned his head and glanced at the figure leading the horse towards the opposite side.

In this game, the opponent won with only a slight advantage.

However, from beginning to end, Xiao Xiao did not see any change in the other party's emotions.

Always calm.

He handled the game with such ease that there wasn't even a hint of tension or intensity.

Xiao Xiao knew that the other party was letting him win.

In order to prevent Zhuge Yun from losing too badly.

"Old Three, win this game beautifully!"

Zhang Bo waved his fist.

"Old Three, teach that annoying guy a lesson."

Zhuge Yun did not have a good face towards the guy who was going to force them to tighten their belts.

"Third brother, come on!"

Zhao Luzheng stretched out his fist.

Xiao Xiao smiled.

"Bang~"

The two fists collided lightly.

Just like what Zhao Luzheng did when he came on stage before.

"Come on, third brother!"

Zhang Bo and Zhuge Yun also bumped fists with Xiao Xiao one after another.

"Master Xiao, come on."

Wang Tong's eyes narrowed even more as he laughed.
