Zhang Jiuyan was not afraid of his threat, so he just thought that nothing had happened and continued to rush forward.

There are three types of people with big tempers in this world. One is that I am the biggest everywhere, just talking but not practicing. One is that I am clamoring for being arrogant at home, and the other is that I am really capable.

And the dog owner Zhang Jiuyan originally thought he was the first type, because in his previous life, Zhang Jiuyan had seen many such people.

But I didn't expect that this dog owner was a third type of person. He was really capable, and his strength was far from something that Zhang Jiuyan could afford.

Soon, the dog owner brought a group of people back and soon caught Zhang Jiuyan up, "Stupid brat, don't run away."

When Zhang Jiuyan heard the movement behind, he turned around and saw that the dog owner had just chased him with more than a dozen young men. Zhang Jiuyan thought it was not good and ran away.

Zhang Jiuyan knew that this group of people was not easy to mess with, so they caught them and had to give their lives.

You should know that this era is not as good as later generations. There are kings and laws everywhere in later generations. In this era, it is lawless. As long as you have a little way, it is not a big deal to kill someone.

Two or three, Zhang Jiuyan can still withstand this group of people. What can Zhang Jiuyan do if he doesn't run away? It's true that a real man can stretch and bend, but Zhang Jiuyan has no brains.

"Boy, drive away, stop me."

"Stop it quickly, dare to run away, I've peeled you off."

The dog owner and a group of people chased and ran behind, but because Zhang Jiuyan was really working hard, he left a distance with them in just a few efforts, and soon got rid of them and ran away.

The dog owner was indignant and scolded: "Boy, don't let me know who you are. If you know, I won't kill you. I won't call you Ai Zhong."

After avoiding the dog owner's pursuit, Zhang Jiuyan supported himself with his hands, gasping continuously, and his face turned red.

At this time, a memory also emerged in Zhang Jiuyan's mind, that is, Zhang Xiaobao from Zhangjia Village was as big as himself. For some reason, he angered the nephew of a county jail constable for some reason, and was finally called by the man and beaten to death.

This matter ended up in the end.

Although Zhang Jiuyan did not face these people just now, Zhang Jiuyan knew that based on his feelings, he could not afford to offend these people. If they caught up with them, he would definitely be beaten to death by them.

In this era, fists are everything, and Zhang Jiuyan has a new understanding of this sentence. It is a true saying.

At around noon, around 11:00 am, Zhang Jiuyan arrived at the gate of the county town. When he arrived here, Zhang Jiuyan was not far from his sister's house.

That's right, his sister's house lives in the city.

In the words of later generations, Zhang Jiuyan's sister married a city native, and now she is also a city native.

Zhang Jiuyan's family is a countryman and is looked down upon by many city people. In ancient times, people in the city looked down upon by the countryman, which became even more serious.

When Zhang Jiuyan saw that someone was already queuing up to the city, Zhang Jiuyan followed behind.

Ancient cities were not something you could enter just by wanting to enter, so you have to check it out.

In the early years of the Ming Dynasty, any person who entered the city, no matter what his identity was, would need to be checked. Officials had official letters, and officials' servants and officials had tooth signs, which all recorded their identity information.

As for the common people, they naturally do not have these high-end goods, but if you want to enter the city, you still have to issue a road guide, which is similar to the certificate issued by the village committee’s street office in the future, proving that you are from wherever you are and what you want to do.

With this road guide, the people can move around and enter the city.

If there is no road guide, you can arrest directly, or even be punished as a fugitive, be beaten to death, or be killed and made a good fortune. This is common.

However, for more than two hundred years, the officialdom has become ruined, and the rules and regulations have naturally become ruined, because the mobility of the people is getting greater and greater.

Some merchants traveled around the world, some villagers went to the city to do business and relatives, and many military households and people fled. The system of road leasing became increasingly difficult to implement, and later it was simply abolished.

Instead, there is a head of money for people entering the city. One is counted as one. If you want to enter the city, each person needs to pay a penny of entry fee.

If it is a bigger and more prosperous city, it may cost two cents or three cents.

Don’t underestimate this money. This is not included in the imperial court’s tax revenue. The amount you collect is your own, and the amount you accumulates, which has long become an important source of income for local officials.

There were about a dozen people waiting one by one in front, but most of them were like Zhang Jiuyan, who visited relatives and friends. After all, it was already late at this time, and those who went to the city to do small business had already entered.

While waiting, Zhang Jiuyan also had the opportunity to take a closer look at the Mizhi Ancient City.

This ancient city is divided into Shangcheng and Xiacheng. Shangcheng was built in the early years of the Northern Song Dynasty. It was first a village and later developed into a village. Finally, the Northern Song Dynasty court simply built a city based on the village, which is Shangcheng.

However, because the upper city is small and the streets are not wide and difficult to move, it was expanded again during the Chenghua period of the Ming Dynasty, and the lower city was built along the hillside and with the Cross Street as the center.

The city wall is nine meters high, and there are also corner towers up to 18 meters high on the city, and there are also wall city towers and bell and drum towers. The city covers an area of ​​2.4 square kilometers.

The city has three gates, Gongji Gate on the east side, Huazhong Gate on the south side, Rouyuan Gate on the north side, and there is no city gate on the west side.

It is mainly composed of four streets, southeast, west and northeast, and around these four streets, there are also thirteen alleys including Confucian Alley, Shipo Alley, Sikou Alley, Baoshan Alley, etc.

These designs form a wonderful layout like a phoenix spreading its wings, "two mountains surround three waters, four streets mingle with ancient charm", which is truly amazing and amazing.

The main purpose of the construction of Mizhi City was to resist the attack and expansion of Western Xia in the first place, so Mizhi was a real military center back then.

However, now that thousands of years have passed, the military attributes of Mizhi City have long been weakened and become just like ordinary cities.

This is the first time Zhang Jiuyan has seen the ancient city walls. Zhang Jiuyan has never seen it before or after traveling through time.

In memory, there is only a little memory of the city wall of the body.

However, there is no real thing in the memory. Zhang Jiuyan was shocked by the ancient and majestic city wall at this time.

After being shocked, Zhang Jiuyan sighed: "This is just a small Mizhi County. If it were Hangzhou, Yangzhou, or even South Beijing, it would be even more unimaginable.

Amidst his feelings, it was Zhang Jiuyan's turn to enter the city.

There were two people guarding the city gate. They were not wearing the mandarin duck battle jackets of the Ming Dynasty's official army, but a felt hat on their heads, a blue one, a red rope belt tied around their waists, and a waist sign that proves their identity hung on the belt.
