Chapter 277: Acceleration
Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios
Jiang An sat more than a meter above the ground and looked around. She felt like she was looking down from above, and her field of vision was much wider. “This feels good!”
Zou Bai pulled the reins and reminded her, “An’an, hug my waist tightly.”
Jiang An put away the novelty of being able to look further into the distance and hugged Zou Bai’s waist with both hands. “I’m holding tight.”
Zou Bai gently squeezed the horse’s belly with his leg and said in a low voice, “Big Black, let’s go.”
Hearing the order, Big Black immediately ran forward in small steps.
Big Red didn’t even need to be instructed. When she saw Big Black running, she followed closely behind.
When Jiang An saw this, she was amazed. “How did Big Red know to follow us? Don’t we need to hold its leash? What if it gets lost?”
Zou Bai glanced at Big Red. “They’re husband and wife. We only need to ride one horse away, and the other horse will automatically follow us.”
Jiang An looked at Big Black and Big Red in surprise. “They’re actually husband and wife?! No, how did you know?”
Zou Bai was amused by Jiang An’s surprised tone. “I won’t tell you how I know. Is it strange that they’re husband and wife?”
Jiang An thought about it and felt that she was making a fuss over nothing. She chuckled and did not continue the topic.
As Zou Bai blocked her view, Jiang An tilted her head slightly to look at the scenery in front of her. She felt the wind whistling past at a close distance and shouted, “This feeling is awesome! I think we can go faster.”
Zou Bai smiled. “I just accelerated. Since you’re adapting so well, 1 won’t stand on ceremony.”
Jiang An nodded excitedly. “Accelerate, accelerate!”
Zou Bai’s eyes were filled with smiles. He tilted his head and said, “Lift your butt a little now. Don’t sit on the horse’s back. Otherwise, you’ll fall from the horse later.”
Jiang An fixed her feet firmly in the stirrups and raised her body. She sat in the air some distance away from the horse’s back. “I’ve lifted.”
Zou Bai exerted more force on his legs. He raised the horsewhip in his hand and gently patted Big Black’s buttocks.
Big Black understood what Zou Bai meant. It followed Zou Bai’s signal and adjusted its speed.
Zou Bai faced the incoming wind. Jiang An was able to feel it a little, and her face was filled with satisfaction. “Faster.”
“Okay!” Zou Bai’s smiling voice drifted into Jiang An’s ears along with the wind.
As the speed increased, Jiang An felt the rise and fail of the horse’s back.
On the mountain path, the trees on both sides flew past her eyes. The wind blew at her eyes, making Jiang An unable to open them, but she was still excited.
The racecourse was on a small hillside, with mountain paths, woods, and streams, and at the top was a wide grassland.
Zou Bai rode very fast, but it took them about 10 minutes to reach the top of the mountain.
“Phew!”
Zou Bai gave the order while tightening the reins. Big Black obediently stopped running.
Zou Bai got off the horse and turned around to help Jiang An down.
When she was on the galloping horse just now, Jiang An didn’t think much of it because she was in an excited state. Now that she stopped and stood on the ground, Jiang An realized that the two sides of her thighs were so stiff that she couldn’t close them.
Zou Bai bent down and massaged Jiang An’s inner muscles. Only then did Jiang An slowly move her legs normally. “This is your first time riding. You’re still not used to it. You’ll be fine after you learn it.”
Jiang An smiled and replied, “I used to be especially envious of those people riding horses on television. They were valiant and heroic! I’ve filmed modern dramas a few times. Now that I finally have the chance, I must learn well.”
“It’s a pity that I won’t be able to learn those authentic traditional martial arts at my age. I can only think about playing ‘Dao Madan’. 1 should work hard to be a ‘Da Qingyi’ then.”
‘Da Qingyi’ referred to the characters who played in important scenes, while ‘Dao Madan’ referred to the characters who were good at martial arts. They would have learned the traditional art of kung fu in China since they were young, so in the past, Dao Madans usually had a foundation in kung fu. Although it was called acting, they were also good at fighting.
Although Jiang An had also become a disciple of a sect, it was not traditional martial arts. Instead, it was a newly established sect that had fused modern combat techniques. After she learned it, she mainly used it for self-protection and self-defense. Their directions were not standardized, and her master would not be as strict with her as other disciples..
