A deafening sound of hooves suddenly sounded and disappeared into the distance. The black crows that were circling above the valley scattered and soon disappeared in the afterglow of the setting sun.
The horses and crows disappeared, and the valley returned to its usual tranquility.
After jumping into the stone forest, Jiang Yuntian did not immediately chase after him. Instead, he stood silently in front of a stone pillar and frowned slightly as he stared at the stone forest that was about five to six acres in radius.
The moment Jiang Yuntian stopped, the Dusk Stallion also stopped running. The surroundings were silent, and everything in the surroundings seemed to have frozen in an instant. Even the air seemed to have been glued.
There seemed to be no sign that the Horse King's Dusk Stallion was hiding in this stone forest. However, experience and intuition told Jiang Yuntian without a doubt that 'it' was definitely hiding inside. It was definitely hiding in a place that he could not see for the time being.
There was nothing wrong with his judgment. Soon, he found something unusual. Behind a stone forest, a cloud of dust was slowly evaporating. As the dust rose, he could even hear an extremely soft puff.
Seeing the dust and hearing the puffing sound, Jiang Yuntian felt relieved. His originally furrowed brows gradually relaxed, and a very gratified smile appeared on his face.
A melodious sound of a flute came from afar.
Following the sound of the flute, Jiang Yuntian saw the lone camel and the lonely old man riding on the hunchback in the golden desert waves in the distance. Every time the old man was seen, he always looked very relaxed. He held a flute in his hand and played a song from time to time. He was happy and relaxed!
The old man always liked to wear a long golden robe. The color of the robe was almost the same as the color of the desert. Every time the long robe fluttered in the wind, the sand and the man formed a beautiful and vivid sand painting. This scene further reflected the old man's elegance and freedom.
Jiang Yuntian sized up the old man curiously and immediately withdrew his gaze. This was because under the current situation, he really had no time to divert his attention to other things.
He had already set up a lot of traps in the outer area of this stone forest, setting up a hidden horse trip rope. It would be fine if the Dark Stallion did not hide in the stone forest, but if it took the opportunity to escape into the stone forest, it would fall into Jiang Yuntian's trap. It would probably be difficult to escape this time.
The reason why Jiang Yuntian had made such meticulous arrangements was also because he had learned the lesson from his many failures in the past when he fought against the Dark Stallion. His repeated failures in the past had long allowed him to understand the cunning and resourcefulness of this Dark Stallion. Therefore, he had set up a crucial backup plan for this stone forest. There was a moment of stalemate between the troops!
At this moment, the camel and the shadow of the hunchbacked old man had hidden behind a sand dune. The melodious flute had long stopped and became silent.
In this moment of silence, a large black shadow suddenly leaped out of the stone forest. As soon as the black shadow leaped out, Jiang Yuntian, who had been waiting for a long time, had already waited for an opportunity to move.
The moment the black horse and the figure crossed paths, the noose on Jiang Yuntian's right hand had already been accurately and quickly thrown out, and it was accurately placed on the head of the Dusk Stallion.
The proud Dusk Stallion could not help but let out a sharp neigh. Not only did it not slow down, but it also charged forward even faster. Its swift and fierce body was like the surging waves in the sea, constantly rising and falling.
Jiang Yuntian tightly gripped the rope that was connected to the noose in his hand. He gritted his teeth and refused to let go no matter what. It was obvious that he had astonishing arm strength. Otherwise, he would definitely not be able to control the Dusk Stallion's thunderous rise and fall. Just like that, Jiang Yuntian was dragged by the rope and sprinted at a high speed. At the same time, his arms moved forward alternately, gradually approaching the horse's body.
The Dusk Stallion, which had never been treated like this before, seemed to be extremely furious. It suddenly opened its mouth and bit the rope tied to its neck. Immediately after, it flipped fiercely. Under such a fierce flip of the Dusk Stallion, Jiang Yuntian's entire body was suddenly dragged by a great force. He suddenly soared into the air and fell rapidly. Unable to react in time, he fell with a plop! He fell into the dust.
Under the Dusk Stallion's sharp teeth, the rope that was originally tied tightly around its neck instantly broke into two, no longer able to restrain it in the slightest.
As soon as it got rid of the ropes, it jumped out of the stone forest like an arrow.
However, no matter how cunning and intelligent a horse was, it was still a horse. No matter how clumsy a person was, they were still humans! No matter what, it was an indisputable fact that humans were smarter than horses. Under this inference, even the king of horses was no exception.
Therefore, the moment its front hooves stepped out of the stone forest, it was already restrained by the crisscrossing ropes that Jiang Yuntian had laid in advance.
The Dusk Stallion's charge was simply too fierce, and it was caught off guard. It fell forward for more than ten feet before falling to the ground. This fall was naturally not light!
When the Dusk Stallion finally managed to control its rolling body and was about to leap up from the ground, the gray-robed Jiang Yuntian had already dashed out like a bolt of lightning. Under the setting sun, his long gray robe fluttered in the wind, and his slender and vigorous shadow was as light as a cloud. In a flash, he had accurately landed on the back of the Dusk Stallion.
Gray clothes, long hair, and twilight. The three colors reflected each other and shone harmoniously in the afterglow of the setting sun.
As soon as Jiang Yuntian landed on the horse's back, his two hands, one in front and one behind, accurately and quickly grabbed the front mane and back tail of the Dusk Stallion.
The proud and aloof Dusk Stallion was not willing to let anyone ride it. It could not help but raise its head and let out an extremely sorrowful neigh. It then began to erupt with a violent and unruly wildness, jumping wildly, trying to shake off the annoying fellow on its body.
Jiang Yuntian had lived in the border for a long time and had been with horses for many years. He was familiar with the nature of horses and was an expert at taming them. His trick to taming fierce horses was to stick to them. As long as he could sit on the horse's back, it was as if he was stuck to it. No matter how violent the horse was, it would not be able to lift him off the horse's back.
What was even rarer was that he could still maintain a calm and unrestrained posture while " sticking " to the horse's back. No matter how violently the horse under him moved, he could always maintain the posture he had when he first got on the horse, holding the horse's mane with one hand and the ponytail with the other.
The Dusk Stallion's frantic movements caused yellow dust to rise from the sand. The extremely arrogant Dusk Stallion had an uncompromising attitude. It was naturally stubborn and would not be willing to be controlled by others.
As the Horse King, the Dusk Stallion was naturally extremely difficult to deal with. However, the opponent it had encountered today was simply too strong. Although it had already used all of its skills, it was still unable to flip him off the horse's back.
It didn't matter if it was hissing, roaring, jumping, or rolling! The man on the horse only changed his posture on the horse at the right time. Once the horse stood up, he could still firmly maintain his original sitting position.
