Chapter 63: Conflict

It is much farther to take the waterway from Qinghe County to Pingxi City than to take the waterway to Huanglong County, Yan Liqiang got on the boat in the morning, and it was until the afternoon, and when it was close to evening, the boat came to the Xijiang Wharf outside Pingxi City.

At this time, the wind and rain still did not stop, but became a little bigger, and the entire Xijiang Wharf was shrouded in a mist.

The passenger ship shook slightly, and it was already leaning on the edge of the dock, Yan Liqiang saw from the window that several boatmen on the ship jumped to the shore quickly, and tied a few anchor ropes at the bow and stern to the iron pillars above the dock, and the hull that was still shaking slowly stabilized.

"Everyone get off the ship, get off the ship, see if you have all your things and salutes, don't leave them on the ship......," the boatman outside shouted, and the passengers in the cabin also stood up one by one, packed up their salute packages, moved their steps one by one, walked out of the cabin, and after going to the outer deck, they quickly went ashore one by one through a few planks on the dock.

Yan Liqiang also picked up his bags and slowly walked out with everyone.

"Little brother, you haven't eaten yet, why don't you get off the boat and have a meal at home, my house is not far from Xijiang Wharf......" The woman who gave up her seat on the boat before Yan Liqiang also carried the child's swaddling clothes on her back, carrying a burden in her hand, lined up in front of Yan Liqiang, and warmly invited Yan Liqiang to eat at home.

"Sister-in-law, I'm just doing it with a gesture, so I don't have to be so polite......"

"Little brother, you are such a good person......"

As the two men spoke, they walked out of the cabin, and it was still raining outside, and the deck was covered with rain, and it was a little slippery, and the boatman put a few broken straw mats on the deck and planks, beckoning everyone to come ashore.

A stocky man in his thirties was waiting on the dock with two umbrellas, and after seeing the woman come ashore, the man hurriedly walked over, held up an umbrella, and asked the woman for warmth, and quickly looked at the situation of the child on the woman's back, but the woman pointed to Yan Liqiang behind her, and whispered a few words to the man, and the man ran to Yan Liqiang at once, with a look of gratitude," Little brother, thank you so much, the two of them went back to their mother's house in Qinghe County this time, I couldn't accompany them back if I had something, thank you for taking care of you on the road!"

"Big brother, you're welcome, you're welcome, it's a little thing!"

"Little brother, it's raining outside now, you can use this umbrella, don't get wet in the rain and get the wind chill......"

"No, no, I really don't need it, this little rain is nothing, besides, I took your umbrella, what should you do, big brother......?"

"If you don't accept it, you will dislike it, my house is nearby, just a few steps away, don't worry about me......" The man said, and directly stuffed an umbrella in his hand into Yan Liqiang's hand, and then ran to the mother and son, took the umbrella in the woman's hand to protect the mother and son, and then left the dock with the mother and son.

Looking at the man with most of his body drenched in the rain, and then looking at the oil-paper umbrella in his hand, Yan Liqiang's heart was also inexplicably warm, and he was a little moved.

In the past few months of rebirth, many memories and feelings about his past life are gradually fading, and he is becoming more and more accustomed to everything in this world, and gradually integrates into his current identity, becoming an ordinary Chinese teenager in Pingxi County, Ganzhou, Han Empire, the people who live in this world, like many ordinary people he saw around him in his previous life, are simple, kind, and hardworking, many times, a warm smile and a simple greeting of "Have you eaten" can outweigh all words.

Looking at the oil-paper umbrella in his hand again, Yan Liqiang smiled, opened the oil-paper umbrella, held it up, and walked towards Pingxi City in the distance.

Xijiang Wharf is not far from the north gate of Pingxi City, gather more than 1,000 meters, stand on this side of the wharf, look at it from a distance, you can also see the high city tower of the north gate of Pingxi City squatting in the misty rain like a giant beast.

There is a market town on this side of the wharf, and the market town is full of signboards of various trading houses and patches of warehouses, which looks bustling, probably due to the rain, there are very few pedestrians on the wharf and in the town, and occasionally a few, all in a hurry.

There are a few carriages on the side of the road, which can carry people to Pingxi City, the coachman who pulls the carriage wears a robe, and the carriage takes shelter from the rain under the eaves of a roadside commercial house, Yan Liqiang walked over and asked the price, from here to the north gate of Pingxi County, 1 copper plate, this price is not expensive, just the money of a bun, but it needs Yan Liqiang to wait here for 6 people to sit on the car and go together.

Look at this rainy weather, I don't know when I have to wait for five more people, 6 copper plates are a little expensive to sit on such a little road, Yan Liqiang is not a weak person, he simply does not take a carriage, holds an umbrella, and after identifying the direction, he walks towards the north gate of Pingxi City.

Sure enough, the road outside Pingxi City is well repaired, it is a standard official road, even if it is a rainy day, the official road is not too muddy except for a little wet, Yan Liqiang walked from the dock to the north gate, and the boots on his feet were not stained with a little muddy water.

There are soldiers guarding the city at the gate of Pingxi County, and there is a cash box at the door.

When Yan Liqiang was lining up, a chaotic sound suddenly came from behind, Yan Liqiang turned around, and saw a team composed of dozens of camels and more than a dozen rhino dragon horses, which had just come to the door.

The camels were loaded with boxes and goods, and the rhinosaurus horses were all riding some strangely dressed, with very different faces from the Chinese, with pale red hair and eyes, sunken eye sockets, and thick hair and beards, which looked like riders of alien races. The riders, each with scimitars on their waists, and several riders with bows and arrows in their saddles, rushed towards the city gate with their toes held high.

Even if it was close to the city gate, several alien riders riding on the rhinosaurus horse still did not slow down the horse, a few pedestrians walking in the middle of the road, unable to avoid it, and were suddenly led by the horse into the muddy water on the side of the road, very embarrassed, several alien riders were still sitting on the rhinosaurus horse, and their eyes did not look at the person who was knocked down by them, and two riders looked coldly at the person who fell to the ground, and the corners of their mouths even showed a smile of disdain.

The team of alien riders rushed directly to the city gate, and they didn't need to go through the inspection of the soldiers at the city gate, and they didn't pay the entrance fee, so they swaggered through the city gate, and looked at the people standing on both sides of the city gate with condescending disdain.

A young soldier clenched his fists and was about to step forward, but was grabbed by another soldier and whispered, "Have you forgotten what happened to the high captain? If these Shatu people make trouble here at the city gate, and the Shatu people in the city will make noise again, when this kind ......of thing happens, they will only blame us, and they will not dare to touch these Shatu people."

"Captain, but this ...... This ......" the young soldier's face flushed.

"Don't say it, let's do our own thing, you have only been here for a few days, it may not be clear, these Shatu people have been arrogant for not a year or two, alas......" The captain who pulled the young soldier also sighed, patted the young soldier's shoulder, and shook his head.

Many people around are also sighing......

Yan Liqiang stood at the gate of the city, watching the caravan of the Shatu people not pay the entrance fee to the city without paying the copper plate, and rushed to the city without getting off the horse, he couldn't believe his eyes, even in a small place like Qinghe County, those who could ride into the city on horseback were only the cavalry and soldiers of the Han Empire who were on duty, or the messengers of the government, ordinary people had to dismount when they entered and exited the city gate, and sometimes they had to be inspected with a lot of things on their bodies, how could these Shatu people be so arrogant in Pingxi County?

What's even more excessive is that he and the Chinese people around him have to pay the entrance fee to enter the city, and these Shatu people don't even pay the entrance fee when they enter the city, and they still have preferential treatment?

At this moment, looking at those aliens who rode on horses to show off their might and enter the city, Yan Liqiang even had an illusion that he was not coming to Pingxi City in Pingxi County, but as an outsider entering the city of the Shatu people, as a Chinese, he was actually reduced to a third-class citizen in front of the aliens in the territory and city of the Chinese people?

What is the rationale for this?

"The traitorous party misleads the country, the traitorous party misleads the country......" An old man standing in front of Yan Liqiang looked at the Shatu people who rode rhinosaurus horses and camels and could enter the city without paying fees, and also shook his head and sighed.

Just four or five meters in front of Yan Liqiang, a young man about twenty years old who was about to enter the city looked at the Shatu people riding on camels and rhinosaur horses, and spat at the ground angrily, "Bah......."

A bearded man riding on a rhinosaurus horse happened to pass in front of the young man, and when he saw this scene, he didn't even think about it, raised the whip in his hand, and whipped it towards the young man.

With a "......snap", the young man screamed, and a deep whip mark was instantly left on his face, and he was whipped to the ground by the Shatu man.

Just when the Sand Tur man riding on the rhinosaurus horse was about to raise the whip again, Yan Liqiang rushed to the side of the Sand Tur man's rhinosaurus horse with one stride, stretched out his hand, and grabbed the whip in the hand of the Sand Tur.

The Shatu man pulled hard, and found that the whip was not moving in Yan Liqiang's hand, and he couldn't help but look angry, he pointed at Yan Liqiang with one hand, and screamed on the horse, and then reached out and touched the scimitar hanging on his body,

Seeing that this Shatu man was going to draw a knife, Yan Liqiang didn't even think about it, and with a hard pull on his hand, the Shatu man was suddenly ripped off his horse by Yan Liqiang, fell to the ground, and the hand holding the whip couldn't help but let go at once.

The Shatu man who fell to the ground was also very athletic, as soon as the person fell, he drew his knife, and then rolled up, and rushed towards Yan Liqiang with a shout.

Yan Liqiang's eyes were cold, and with a wave of his hand, a whip shadow crossed through the air.

"Bang ......" There was an explosion in the air.

"Ah......h......h
