Leisurely Life: I Have Ten Thousand Acres of Grassland-Chapter 48 - 46: What Now? He Showed Off Again!
Even though there’s no podium for the award ceremony after the race, Jiang Feng still looked quite grand leading his horse to stand in the center.
Local TV reporters and some media personnel were taking photos at the front.
The online fans were very excited.
[Master, you’re making us so proud!]
[Darn it, he got us again!]
[Whether the prairie is peaceful or not, it’s up to the livestream host!]
[He’s really handsome, but I just don’t want to admit it!]
[Too smug, can’t stand it, damn!]
The organizers gave Jiang Feng a gold medal, although it was gold-plated and not worth much, its significance was great.
Then, Adouqin also brought to Jiang Feng a strong yellow ox, with someone beside him carrying a whole sheep’s lamb.
"Master Jiang, truly impressive! Winning the championship in both horse races by one person is a first for the ranch," Adouqin sincerely praised.
Jiang Feng directed Niu Erhu to lead the yellow ox and asked Ma He and Zhu Huo to put the lamb on the car.
He replied to Adouqin, "Beyond my usual performance."
The ranch employees were also very happy.
Donating ten sheep, getting back an ox and a whole sheep, was already a steal.
Adouqin exchanged pleasantries briefly, then went on to greet others.
Jiang Feng then instructed Niu Erhu:
"Tell Gelya to stew the whole lamb tomorrow, make it into ’hand-grab meat,’ slice it open in the morning weather and let it dry, it’ll remove the sourness."
Niu Erhu, with a smiling face, agreed: "Rest assured, I’ll definitely get it done!"
Jiang Feng relaxed.
In the afternoon there was still a horse lassoing contest, but it’s just for fun since the rewards are only a certificate and a gift box, not a horse, so Jiang Feng wasn’t very interested.
The next contest was wrestling, called "bok" here.
Participants in such events are burly, muscular men, many on the prairie are hefty due to their daily meat consumption.
Jiang Feng naturally wouldn’t join this contest; he hadn’t learned wrestling, and this event was more for the Mongolian People.
Now having downtime, Jiang Feng chatted with online fans.
"The horse races are over, the performance was decent, claimed two firsts."
Jiang Feng feigned regret, gently sighed.
[Darn it, he truly got us again!]
[I admit you’re strong, but I just refuse!]
[I refuse too!]
[All of you refuse, then I refuse as well!]
Veteran fans in the livestream had started stirring things up, enhancing the interaction vibe.
Jiang Feng directed the drone towards the gold medal, engraved with a galloping horse design, "Why’s this newly minted medal a bit dirty, let me wipe it off. How did it get dirty?"
Then viewers watched Jiang Feng use his sleeve to theatrically clean the medal.
The gold medal constantly swayed before the camera.
Everyone was amused by his antics.
[Abstract!]
[Honestly, the master buys one hundred pounds of beef, but ninety-nine pounds are bullseye!]
[Hahahaha, too smug, damn!]
[Acting flashy invites lightning!]
Viewers threw out mockery, along with many sending "6666" as a barrage of praise.
The livestream atmosphere was heating up.
At this moment, the next wrestling match was about to begin.
The rules of the match were simple, it was one-on-one based on the draw with elimination technique.
Two hulking men put on jackets adorned with many metallic dots, then stepped onto the dry grassland, hands on each other’s shoulders, starting to wrestle.
This contest was a battle of strength and skill, filled with wild intensity.
Generally, higher weight equates to greater strength, but some can win by being agile, which often earns them rounds of applause.
Ma He donned a jacket, eager to represent Jiang Feng’s ranch in the contest.
Jiang Feng and Niu Erhu and the others cheered him on.
Ma He was confident, determined to emulate Jiang Feng, achieve good ranking, and enhance the ranch’s reputation.
Then, almost immediately, he was brought down by a Mongolian strongman, directly eliminated.
"No worries, it’s all about participation," seeing him return, Jiang Feng consoled.
Ma He said nothing, face filled with embarrassment.
The online viewers watching these scenes found them particularly entertaining.
Indeed, sports truly become interesting when you’re lying on a sofa at home or watching from bed.
At noon everyone had some beef to replenish their strength, then prepared to continue with the final contest.
Jiang Feng, after resting for a few hours, regained much of his strength, and Red Hare returned to a much better state.
He placed the gold medal in the vehicle, ready for action.
The drone followed him.
Jiang Feng spoke:
"The last contest this afternoon is horse lassoing, the organizers will release five extremely fierce wild horses, then herders try to lasso them."
"I’ve studied these five horses, they’re exceptionally fierce and difficult to lasso."
"Though hard to lasso, there are many trying; over a dozen eyes are fixated on one horse, lassoes raining, who’ll succeed in capturing one is hard to say."
"I’ll try my best to capture one!"
Hearing Jiang Feng’s words, the online fans responded:
[Master, time to show your champion prowess!]
[Waiting for the spectacle!]
[Even Red Hare can be lassoed, capturing a domestic horse should be straightforward!]
[Just lasso it!]
[Master, can I request that when the time comes, play ’Horse Taming Pole’ as background music.]
At this moment, the competition was nearing, Jiang Feng holding his Horse Taming Pole again approached the starting line. 𝑓𝓇𝘦ℯ𝘸𝘦𝑏𝓃𝑜𝘷ℯ𝑙.𝑐𝑜𝓂
His appearance attracted numerous gazes toward him, then towards the Red Hare he rode.
Judging from the previous race, Red Hare was indeed a rarely seen excellent horse.
In everyone’s eyes, there was a hint of admiration.
Jiang Feng didn’t play background music, since background music would interrupt the tension and thrill of lassoing.
The essence of livestream was its immersive experience.
Before long, the organizers released five wild horses, and the moment the whistle sounded, herders galloped vigorously once more.
This time the scene was even more chaotic than the previous horse race, yet even more exciting.
Approximately seven to eight herders encircled a wild horse from the sides, then, in the midst of galloping, one lasso after another aimed for the wild horse’s neck.
The wild horse’s neck shook wildly, charging amidst the lassos.
Someone managed to lasso the wild horse, but lacked strength, allowing the wild horse to break free of the pole, galloping frantically while carrying it.
Jiang Feng instantly picked his target.
Riding Red Hare, he trailed behind a specific horse.
This horse was skilled, having already evaded five lassos.
Jiang Feng, with the Horse Taming Pole in hand, simultaneously controlled Red Hare to accelerate while extending the pole forward.
The drone captured footage of him lassoing.
Seizing the right moment, with a sudden maneuver forward, Jiang Feng accurately lassoed the accelerating horse’s neck with the rope on the pole.
[Got it!]
The online viewers were caught in surprise!
But merely lassoing completes only half the task; in such speedy conditions, halting the wild horse further challenges the rider’s skill.
Jiang Feng exerted force pulling back while controlling Red Hare to slow down.
Speed couldn’t abruptly decrease; it must be gradual.
Unless one was as strong as an ox, capable of directly pulling a rapidly running wild horse from behind.
Otherwise, quick deceleration would easily allow the wild horse to shake off the Horse Taming Pole.
Jiang Feng’s arm forcibly pulled back the wild horse, with his rear positioned firmly.
Red Hare slowly reduced pace, and the wild horse ahead mirrored the slowing pace.
Gradual slowdown led the wild horse to feel burdened, as if tethered to a ton-heavy object.
Eventually, it ceased sprinting and began halting.
This indicated the wild horse had been tamed.
Once tamed, the wild horse wasn’t as unruly.
Jiang Feng maneuvered Red Hare to turn around, using the Horse Taming Pole to lead the wild horse, gently trotting back to the start.
His lips adorned with a confident smile, Red Rabbit Horse’s neck was held high, as if aware it was the center of everyone’s attention.
[What to do? He got us again!]
[I give in! Truly fierce!]
[Lassoing man you’re mighty and strong!]
[Hey chief, that’s enough showing off!]
Online fans were simply awed, with the livestream bursting into intense cheers.
