The prince called Xiao Suhe and said, "I'll give you three big gold ingots and leave the white horse to me. Go home quickly!" " After listening to the report, Xiao Suhe said angrily, "I'm here to participate in horse racing, not to sell horses. Seeing that someone dared to contradict him, the report sent someone to rob the little white horse and knocked Xiao Su and him unconscious. "。 Xiao Su and the villagers carried him home, but he missed the little white horse day and night. The little white horse is also attached to little Su He. One night, unwilling to give in to the tyrannical monarch, it ran back from the king, being shot several times and bleeding all over. The next day, the little white horse died of his injuries. Xiao Su and his sadness and anger made it difficult for him to sleep. One night, he came up to him in the dim light and said to him gently, "Dear young master, make a piano with my bones and muscles!"! "! So we can be together forever. "After waking up, Xiao Suhe made a piano with his bones, tendons and tail, and carved a horse's head on the top of the piano. This is how Ma Touqin was born.
