Chapter 662 The Red Pony (2/2)
But Han Sen quickly dropped the idea. Creatures were not humans, and if they saw Han Sen threaten the red pony, they'd probably opt to kill Han Sen rather than negotiate.
Although the red pony was small, it was a super creature. Han Sen was not entirely sure he could deal with it solo anyway.
The red pony seemed curious about everything. It opened its eyes wide and looked at Han Sen and the silver fox with great interest.
The red pony tried to enter Han Sen's field on numerous occasions, but each time, the horse king stopped it and sent it back.
Before the red pony was taken away, it looked back and almost seemed upset.
”That's a shame. If that red pony came here on its own, perhaps I really could kidnap it!” Han Sen thought, disappointed.
That night, Han Sen lay on the grass observing the night skies. He counted the stars that glistened above. It was quite boring, so he summoned the angel and Princess YinYang to talk.
As they were talking, they heard noise from the horse crowd. Looking over there, Han Sen saw the red pony sneak his way, with its eyes fixated on him.
Han Sen was happy when he saw it, but it caused a commotion in the horse crowd. They neighed repeatedly, as if they were trying to convince the red pony to return to them.
But no matter how much noise they made, they did not dare to enter the area like the red pony had.
The horse king was nowhere to be seen, however, and Han Sen did not know why.
The red pony ignored its brethren and continued to approach Han Sen. It looked to its left and right up until it was about twenty meters away. Then, it stood where it was and just watched Han Sen and his companions.
”Come here, little child. Come here.” Han Sen's face was crowned with a strange smile. He reached out both arms to the red pony, as if he was calling for a baby to crawl to him.
But the red pony took a few step backs, and its eyes looked alert. It didn't trust Han Sen.
Han Sen noticed that his behavior was like any old, creepy uncle that wished to kidnap a child. Quickly, he put away his grinning face and put on his look of innocence as if he were swapping masks. As he did, he thought of how he might be able to attract the red pony towards him.
Han Sen threw some jerky on the ground and bid for the pony to eat it, but it was ignored.
”Do horses only enjoy eating grass?” Han Sen's heart felt bad. He looked in his pockets and there was nothing he could use to attract the red pony, so he wasn't sure what to do.
But the red pony, after a while longer of looking, seemed to drop some of its apprehension. Slowly, it began to walk closer and closer to Han Sen.
The crowd of horses was in a frenzy, as countless horses surrounded the area, crying repeatedly. It was like they were pleading for the red pony to return and for Han Sen not to hurt it.
Han Sen suddenly thought something had to be wrong. If the wolves and horses were avoiding each other, maybe that was why they did not come any closer? But now that the red pony was inside, why did the other horses not come?
