Chapter 91

For Yan Liqiang, the so-called personal soldiers of the military supervisor have an extra job of walking and feeding horses.

Huangfu Qianqi had a groom, so every time Yan Liqiang went to the governor's house, the groom who took care of the horses for the governor's adult's attitude towards Yan Liqiang directly reminded Yan Liqiang of the scene when Sun Wukong was Bi Mawen.

However, Yan Liqiang is not a delicate person. In line with the principle that three people must have our teacher, he is polite to the groom every time he goes. He is not ashamed to ask questions. After two months of personal soldiers, Yan Liqiang learned the groom's ability to take care of rhinoceros and horses, which is not a small gain.

The last time Yan Liqiang saw Huangfu Qianqi was last month. Every year after autumn, the cavalry of the heijie tribe harassed and plundered the border between Ganzhou and Fengzhou. The people of the heijie tribe called it dacaogu. I heard that the harassment of the heijie tribe was increasing this year. So I saw the weather getting colder in the past month, Huangfu Qianqi took several other soldiers and a battalion of cavalry to baishiguan, west of Pingxi county.

The outside of baishiguan is close to Qiyun mountain. Although heijie tribe does not have a direct border with Pingxi County, Pingxi county has been harassed by heijie tribe for a few times, but Huangfu Qianqi is still worried about his duty and can only go there in person.

Because Yan Liqiang wanted to study in the National Art Museum, before he went, Huangfu Qianqi met Yan Liqiang and encouraged him. Finally, he forced Yan Li to stay.

Huangfu Qianqi has four rhinoceros horses. This time, Huangfu Qianqi takes two with him, and two remain in Pingxi city. Therefore, Yan Liqiang always comes to the governor's house every seven days to take good care of Huangfu Qianqi's rhinoceros horses.

"It snowed last night, so we need to add some hay to the stables today to keep the ground dry. Rhinoceros horses sleep more reliably. Ordinary horses sleep standing, while rhinoceros horses usually sleep standing. But when it's cold, it's a bit like rhinoceros. It curls up on its four legs and sleeps on its stomach. The stables windows should be closed as much as possible. If it's going to snow at night, In fine fig, when feeding the late horned horse, we can feed each half of the rhino dragon with half a kilo of black beans with Baijiu, which will not lose its weight every day in the winter.

In the stables of the governor's house, Yan Liqiang and the groom uncle cleaned up the stables together, covered the rhinoceros room with dried straw, added evening materials, and took care of the two rhinoceros smoothly. While working with Yan Liqiang, the groom uncle explained and passed on his horse feeding skills to Yan Liqiang.

Finally, the two rhinoceros dragon horses were served. Yan Li clapped his hands, washed his hands in the nearby pool, and took off the smock he wore when doing dirty work. "Uncle Hu, I'm here today. I'll go back. I'll come back in a few days. I'll trouble uncle Hu these days!"

"No trouble, no trouble..." Uncle Hu, the groom, smiled foolishly. "I also want to thank you for the wine and beef you brought me today. It's too expensive..."

"Hahaha, how can you learn how to feed horses with Uncle Hu? Every time you come empty handed, I'll bring uncle Hu some good wine next time..."

"Childe, you will have a bright future if you follow the commander in the future..."

"Ha ha, thank uncle Hu for his kind words..."

Farewell to Uncle Hu, the groom. Yan Liqiang walked out of the governor's house from the side door of the governor's house. At this time, the sky was a little dark, but the snow was still falling. The temperature seemed to be colder than during the day, and there were fewer pedestrians in the street. Many shops along the street have made samples. There are only a few restaurants, restaurants, inns and other places. Lanterns outside the store are still hanging. It makes people feel warm in this cold night.

A snowflake fell from the sky and just landed in Yan Liqiang's collar. It was a little cold, which made Yan Liqiang cheer up again.

Yan Liqiang pulled the dog skin hat on his head, wrapped the scarf around his neck twice, revealing only half of his face, and looked into the streets on both sides. During the day, there were people pulling cars in the street. Now, there are not even one person pulling cars in the street, and there are few pedestrians. It is estimated that he can only walk to Sanyuan Street on two legs.

Fortunately, it's in Pingxi city. No matter how far you go, it's not far. At most, more than an hour is enough to walk home by yourself.

Yan Liqiang walked slowly down the street towards the courtyard.

……

Half an hour later, Yan Liqiang had gone far away from the governor's house, and it was completely dark.

In order to get back to the courtyard earlier, Yan Liqiang took short cuts that he seldom took on weekdays, small streets outside several streets in Pingxi city and alleys in residential areas.

Yan Liqiang had just walked through an alley in the business district when he heard the sound of a carriage behind him. He also took the initiative to give way to the roadside.

The carriage passed by Yan Liqiang without stopping and still drove forward.

Yan Liqiang looked at the carriage. It was a little old and a little long. It was a goods truck. A coachman sat in the front and drove the car with a whip. His cloak was snowing. He didn't notice Yan Liqiang walking along the roadside.

On the roadside in front, there happened to be a tavern. A row of lanterns hung outside the tavern to illuminate the road outside the tavern. When the carriage passed the road outside the tavern, Yan Liqiang, who was walking behind the carriage, stopped as if he had been stabbed, and stared at the back of the driver of the carriage.

Just at that moment, under the light of lanterns hanging outside the tavern, the back of the carriage coachman was startled by the light. It was that moment that Yan Liqiang clearly saw the outline of a side behind the head of the carriage coachman. The coachman of the carriage was also wearing a dog skin hat and a thick cotton padded jacket, but part of the skin was exposed between the coachman's hat and the collar of the cotton padded jacket. The right ear of the coachman had disappeared and was flat under the brim of his hat, while on the neck under his ear and on the exposed inches of skin, a trace of snake pattern could be seen. The lost ear, the trace on the neck... Isn't that the coachman who was beaten to pieces by his own whip at the city gate that day? Although I didn't see the face of the coachman, the scars on the man's ears and neck, as well as his back, would never be wrong. At the moment, the Shatu man didn't wear the costumes of Shatu people, but wore the clothes of Han people and wrapped himself tightly. He drove out in a carriage so late and was far away from the urban area where the Shatu people were located. Everything revealed a kind of strangeness. Yan Liqiang first thought of whether this was a trap for Shatu people, but on second thought, he denied this idea, because he took a small road today, and many roads were temporarily decided. Even if those Shatu people knew that he was going to come out of the governor's house today, it was impossible to calculate which road he was going to take, and then set up a trap on the road to wait for him. Less than fifty meters after the front carriage tried the tavern, the carriage turned to the left and turned to another road nearby. After a few quick thoughts flashed through his mind, Yan Liqiang quickened his pace and lightened his pace. He took out the Kung Fu of the nine palaces wind shadow step, and quickly and quietly chased the place where the carriage turned...
