Realm Overlord

Chapter 71 Unfriendly

A tragedy occurred on the dock!

Especially those who were killed were a foreign warrior and his followers.

The small dock suddenly became chaotic.

That's right, it wasn't just the blond and blue-eyed crooked nut who was killed, his followers were also killed by other sneak attackers who had mixed up with the dock fighters.

Lin Qi stood at the bow of the boat and could see clearly.

I have a deeper understanding of the chaos in the outside world.

Just a small dock on the edge of the river can hide powerful warriors of Ming Jin or Dark Jin level. It's too exaggerated.

The dock was in chaos, but the owner of the cargo ship was unmoved. He quickly ordered the sailors to start the ship and enter the wide river and quickly go away.

He put down the big bookcase and sat directly beside it without asking the sailors whether what happened at the dock was frequent or not.

Hey, it seems that the deterrent effect of the eyebrow-leveling stick in his hand is still very average.

Dajiang is one of the main water systems in the southern part of the Great Zhou Empire. The river is wide for more than ten miles, and there is an endless stream of ships coming and going.

The cargo ship Lin Qi and his party boarded was not conspicuous among them.

At least at this time, the large river section belonging to the Chu region is relatively stable, and there are no large-scale water bandits or the like.

As for small-scale gangsters, there will be no shortage of them in any era.

Fortunately, the cargo ship Lin Qi and his party boarded did not encounter any trouble during the journey, and they arrived at the next dock smoothly in the evening.

After two days of this, the cargo ship arrived at the county town smoothly!
When they arrived, the fellow traders bid farewell to Lin Qi one after another.

There is no regrets, we just met by chance and walked hundreds of miles together.

On the other hand, the cargo ship needs to stay in the county town for three days.

Lin Qi didn't want to bother, so he found other ships going to Zhoucheng, and simply agreed with the ship owner on the price to go to Zhoucheng.

Then, I found a nice inn to stay in in the dock area near the river in the county town.

The county town here is naturally quite prosperous.

There are dozens of ships moored in the dock area alone, and the number of ships coming in and out will only be even higher.

The cargo throughput in one day is probably quite a lot!

Here in the county, you don't have to worry about safety when going out during the day.

After spending a night repairing at the inn, I got up early the next day and followed the flow of people into the city gate.

At this time, the streets of the county city were already quite busy. Lin Qi looked around and looked for the target, which was a bookstore or something like that.

This is a county town after all, and the books in the bookstore cannot be as rare as those in the county town bookstore. It is simply outrageous.

If you really want to buy books, the best place is in Zhoucheng.
However, Lin Qi was eager to know the recent events in the Great Zhou Empire, or in Chu Land.

Damn, even Waiguoren appeared, and he was very curious.

Also, the tragedy that happened on the dock before, and the man who attacked him shouted "Starland devils", made him very curious about what was going on.

With Lin Qi's footsteps, he quickly found a bookstore.

As expected, there are many more types of books sold in the county bookstore.

For example, there are historical books that cannot be purchased in Xiajun County Bookstore. Although there are not complete sets, there are quite a lot of historical materials about the Great Zhou Dynasty and previous dynasties.

There are also various travel notes and miscellaneous talks. If you browse through them casually, there will be content that attracts Lin Qi.

What surprised Lin Qi the most was that the bookstore actually sold newspapers and other stuff.Of course, they are all bimonthly or monthly, which is quite good.

Without saying a word, Lin Qi packed up the newspapers and books published in the past year or two and bought them in one go, spending 15 taels of silver.

Of course he knew that the bookstore owner was cheating and temporarily raising the price, but he didn't care.

The most important thing right now is to understand the information outside, the more detailed the better.

While looking for a bookstore, he saw a few crooked nuts on the street.

All of them were strong and strong, and all held weapons in their hands. The passers-by around them were quite disgusted and alienated from them.

He really wanted to know what happened to these crooked nuts?

Wrap all the purchased books in brown paper and slowly leave the bookstore.

After walking a few steps, I noticed that someone was following behind me?
Damn it, the county here is really unfriendly to outsiders.

He didn't rush directly into the alley. Who knows what the situation is inside?
I went directly to the largest restaurant nearby, and sure enough, there was a storyteller service.

When it comes to being well-informed, restaurants are naturally one of the hot spots.

Listening to the bragging and farting of the guests next to you and Mr. Shu's foaming at the mouth, you can learn a lot of useful information.

For example, the restaurant storyteller is telling the story of the confrontation between the Great Zhou Empire and the powerful powers from outside the world.

After listening to it twice, I knew that the powerful countries in the outside world relied on strong ships and cannons to deal with the Great Zhou Empire.

Of course, the Great Zhou Empire would not be completely defeated, and its strength was still very strong.

It can't be beaten on the vast sea, but on land, the powerful countries in the outside world are completely blind.

There was no useless thing like weapons substitution. Whenever the navies of powerful foreign countries dared to land, they were basically taken away by waves of local armies from the Great Zhou Dynasty.

The storyteller talks about the specific war, which makes everyone talk about it. From time to time, there will be a wave of high-ranking officials. Those who don't know think he has experienced it personally.

The most exciting thing is naturally the showdown between military masters.

What kind of strong men in the army are rampaging around like human tanks?

There are also swordsmen from powerful foreign lands whose sword skills are so sharp that they can sweep away large areas.

Apart from the exaggeration, Lin Qi also listened with fascination.

Obviously, the strong man in the army mentioned by the storyteller is really not an ordinary strong man.

In the ancient times of the original world, they were definitely as strong as the Overlord, and maybe even stronger. There was extraordinary power here.

I sat there until the sun set, drank about five pots of tea and three portions of food, and then slowly left the restaurant.

After taking a few steps, the feeling of being followed came again.

He was too lazy to pay attention and returned directly to the inn on the other side of the pier.

When passing a relatively remote residential area, he turned around and slapped each other, knocking out the two guys who were following him and throwing them into a nearby smelly ditch.

If you die, you won't die, so you don't know if there will be problems such as bacterial infection?
When he was away from home, it was not easy for him to enter the fragmented space directly. He could just practice martial arts until very late, then take a shower and go straight to bed.

He didn't leave the inn again for the next two days.

I don't know if there is a gang organization behind the two unlucky guys who are following them. If they are, if they go to the county again, they will be asking for trouble.

On the other hand, he was eager to read through all the newspapers he bought to understand what had happened in the past year or two.

Anyway, I'm leaving in two days, so there's no need to create extra complications.
