Chapter 86

Shi Wen said, "Is Baoye A Sai Abilities? I can sense that he's a little different."

Zhu Ji feigned surprise. "You could tell that? He is indeed Abilities, but he doesn't usually talk about it to others, and he rarely contacts the Abnormal Affairs Bureau. Did you discover some distinguishing feature?"

Shi Wen spoke frankly, "No, it's just a gut feeling. He acted quite normally, looking like a successful businessman, no different from any other human being."

Zhu Ji exclaimed, "Your intuition is indeed remarkable; no wonder you're High-Level Abilities User. Baoye A Sai's situation is rather special; remember to keep it a secret."

Shi Wen, "Don't worry, even if I wanted to reveal a secret, there's no one I could tell. I was just asking to satisfy my curiosity."

Shi Wen quickly stopped worrying about Baoye A Sai and began to wholeheartedly take care of the injured horse.

The horse was badly injured; its leg was almost completely broken. However, it was clear that it had received the best possible care, and its wounds were healing well.

Of course, "good" means that despite such severe injury, it was able to maintain a relatively normal state.

Compared to a healthy horse, its condition was quite poor.

Not only was its physical condition poor, but its mood was also terrible, showing signs of depression, although no doctor could diagnose a horse's emotional problems.

This living horse was tightly bound in a frame, unable to move, and could only stand upright in the dimly lit stable. Not only was it uncomfortable for the horse, but it was also uncomfortable for the onlookers to Shi Wen.

Shi Wen I understand why injured horses are often euthanized.

If euthanasia is not performed, the animal may suffer on the shelf for months without receiving proper treatment, ultimately leading to the same death.

It only causes suffering and has no other effect, so it's better to end the pain in the first place.

Perhaps due to severe injury, the horse appeared extremely agitated.

It will try to bite and kick people, and even spray feces on them as revenge, seemingly using every means to relieve the discomfort of being tied up.

Shi Wen only realized now that horses have a really strong bite force; if they bite someone, they can tear off a piece of flesh.

When he was raising the little Yan Shi, the horse would just playfully nibble at his hair and clothes, but it wouldn't actually bite hard, so he never felt the horse's bite force.

It was only then that he realized that the reason why horses occupy a relatively high position in the food chain is not entirely because they run fast, but also because they are very powerful attackers.

Not only are they powerful attackers, but they are also quite intelligent and their emotions are very easily expressed.

That day, Shi Wen went to see the horses again.

The horse remained motionless on its perch, and upon seeing Shi Wen, could only open its mouth and bellow to vent its discontent, "Ah-ah--"

"Alright, alright, I've fed you some fresh grass today. See if that makes you feel a little better?" Shi Wen stroked the horse, his heart filled with sympathy. "You eat grass first, and when Yan Kexing comes back later, I'll push you out to bask in the sun with him, okay? Sunbathing will make you feel a little better."

Today's grass is a three-in-one hay specially cut from pastureland—a mixture of alfalfa, red clover, and sheep grass.

Their pasture grass is already knee-high, just sprouting, tender and juicy, with a sweet taste.

If you don't let people see the hay, but chop it up and offer it to them to taste, people might think it's a good vegetable, and some vegetables aren't even as sweet as hay.

What's even more remarkable is that people feel extremely comfortable after eating this herb.

Shi Wen smell that this herb has a medicinal effect of clearing heat and detoxifying.

However, alfalfa is edible, and some people use it as a vegetable, so this feeling is probably not unfounded.

They all eat some hay, and the little ones in the house like it very much.

The grass has only grown a little bit so far, and it's far from harvestable. We only cut a little for them to taste Shi Wen it's a treat, and they're not allowed to eat it at other times.

A sick horse is different.

The horse is already pitiful enough being trapped here. It needs to be given something sweet so that it has something to look forward to every day to keep going. Otherwise, I don't know how it will get through such a long and dark time.

The horse, grazing on the gathered hay, indeed became quieter and stopped trying to bite.

Shi Wen gently stroked the horse.

When the horse arrived, Baoye A Sai did not tell Shi Wen its name, perhaps wanting it to bid farewell to the past.

Once the horse has recovered from its injuries, it will be a new horse and can live happily in Shi Wen's home. Therefore, Baoye A Sai chose to leave the naming rights of the horse to Shi Wen.

The horse, grazing on the pasture, became very quiet and no longer resisted Shi Wen and checked.

Shi Wen squatted down beside it, gently held its hoof, and examined it carefully.

Its hooves are showing signs of improvement, which may be related to drinking Ganoderma lucidum tea.

The effects of the Ganoderma lucidum tea were better than Shi Wen imagined.

Perhaps after some time, it will truly get better.

Chapter 86

Today is Sunday. Yan Kexing doesn't have to work on weekends; he only needs to handle some miscellaneous tasks. He said he would be back at noon and asked Shi Wen so they could have lunch together.

He returned around 11 o'clock as expected.

Yan Kexing was feeding the horses Shi Wen heard the noise. He ran out and Yan Kexing, beckoning him to come into the stable.

Yan Kexing over, stepping out of the sunlight into the stable. Seeing Shi Wen's expression, he took off his suit jacket, tossed it onto the hay rack, and rolled up his shirt sleeves. "How was your morning?"

"Not bad, the horses are quite well-behaved today." Shi Wen opened the two doors on either side of the stable and lifted the brake pads securing the wheels. "And you?"

"Nothing much, just some haggling over this year's budget," Yan Kexing said with a slight smile Shi Wen ask. "We won the argument."
