This is the least you can do to show respect to a loyal warhorse.

She actually prefers to be with these simple-minded and very loyal animals, where there is less pressure and scheming, and communication doesn't require many roundabout ways.

Black Wind glanced down at the thing the little girl was carrying. He recognized it and knew what it was for. He turned to look at his silly son, then at the human girl in front of him.

I vaguely remember the company commander saying that human children should be cherished.

This child is so young, what if his mentally challenged son drops someone and hurts them!

Thinking this, Black Wind stuck its head out over the manger and gently nibbled at the little girl's sleeve.

Bai Nuo smiled and nodded: "Okay, then you take me with you, let's go for a walk, find a secluded place, and I'll get you some delicious fruit."

Bai Nuo received permission, turned around and strode inside, putting the saddle on Hei Feng's back. A small piece of homespun cloth was specially sewn onto the bottom of the saddle, so that both Hei Feng and the person sitting on the saddle would be more comfortable.

Finally, he went to the wooden shelf next to him, took the reins of a few more horses, put them on, led them out, and then turned around to close the door of the stable.

When she went to register in the morning, the clerk said that she could actually take over all the work in this stable and only be responsible for the stable where Black Wind's family lived. In that case, even if she didn't go to gather hay, she would still get seven work points every day. In that case, a year's work points would be enough to exchange for a year's worth of food.

Bai Nuo was initially hesitant. Going to the mountains to gather hay after walking the horses would be quite nice, and she could go for a walk in the mountains every day. But after meeting this family, Bai Nuo suddenly felt that it wouldn't be bad to just be in charge of this stable in the future. There wasn't much work, and seven work points a day would be enough. She would still have a lot of free time.

With that in mind, Bai Nuo decided to go to the clerk's office that afternoon to register and take over the keys to the stables. From then on, she would be the manager of the Black Wind family.

"Uncle Black Wind, I'll go find the clerk this afternoon. From now on, I'll be the administrator for your family for three generations. What do you think?"

Bai Nuo loosened the ropes for Da Zao and the others to their maximum length, then tied them to Hei Feng's saddle and made them follow behind, while turning his head to look at Hei Feng.

"How magnificent!"

"Hehe, then it's settled." Bai Nuo nodded with a grin.

Although she doesn't have the ability to speak animal language and can't speak animal languages, she possesses the wood element that governs life and extremely high mental strength. Therefore, although she can't understand every word of animal language, she can understand their general meaning through her mental strength.

In fact, she never understood why she hadn't awakened her mental abilities, even though her mental strength was higher than that of many other mental ability users. It was absurd, just like how she could understand how to prepare medicine and prescriptions, but still couldn't treat or diagnose illnesses.

She used to be speechless. Other people with mental abilities could openly turn their mental energy into tangible attacks and manipulations, but she, who had extremely high mental energy but hadn't awakened her mental abilities, could only cause trouble in secret.

Talent is indeed a strange thing.

Bai Nuo rode the tall horse Hei Feng, followed by several other large horses, walking along the road of the caravan. It had to be said, he looked quite imposing.

As they passed by the fields, they saw a group of people bending over to sow seeds from afar. Bai Nuo didn't want to bother them, so she decided to take another road to the mountains on the west side of the village.

"Bai Zhiqing, why are you sitting on Hei Feng?"

Some people looked up and saw Bai Nuo's relaxed and carefree appearance, and found it irritating no matter how they looked at it.

Bai Nuo bent down and touched Hei Feng's sideburns, then straightened up with a righteous look and said loudly, "Of course Uncle Hei Feng agreed, so what? What's it to you?"

"Hey, you little rascal..."

"What's going on now?" The captain and the scorekeeper happened to be patrolling over here. When they saw the little girl on Hei Feng's back, they immediately raised their eyebrows.

Wow, Black Wind actually let someone ride on his back today?

Don't be fooled by Black Wind's seemingly good temper; it was once a warhorse that kicked a Japanese soldier to death with a single hoof. When it's moving forward, it's incredibly fierce. It's just that life has gotten better in the last two years, and its temper has become much milder. But not just anyone can ride on its back.

The captain thought Bai Nuo would ride the more docile Bai Yun, but he didn't expect this girl to play a big game for him.

"Oh, Captain, you're here too. I was just about to ask Uncle Black Wind to take us to the west end of the village."

"How magnificent!"

Hei Feng turned to look at Wei Zhongping and greeted the old company commander's grandson.

He knows this child!

The captain raised his hand and patted Hei Feng's head, then looked at Bai Nuo speechlessly: "What did you just call Hei Feng?"

Bai Nuo tilted her head and said matter-of-factly, "Uncle Black Wind?"

The captain's lips twitched violently: "Why are you still calling me 'Uncle'?"

"That's right!"

Bai Nuo solemnly explained the relationship to her captain uncle.

"I heard from Uncle Zhao that Black Wind was raised by your grandfather and was also your grandfather's warhorse, just like a military dog ​​in the army."

People in the military say that military dogs are their comrades-in-arms and are treated as equals. Warhorses are certainly treated the same way.

Your grandfather treated Heifeng like a son, so isn't he Grandpa Wei's younger brother? You should call Heifeng Uncle, but I can call him Grandpa Uncle, no problem.”

"Hahaha, yes, that's right, that's exactly it." Grandpa Wei walked over carrying a long pipe. Hearing the little girl's words, he laughed heartily. "My father did say that Black Wind was like his youngest son, much more honest than me, sensible and obedient. He also said that after the war ended, he would take Black Wind home and find it a wife."
