After saying that, he whipped the questioning official directly with his riding crop.
With a smack, the official's chest was torn open, his skin splitting and flesh bursting.
The Yang family had always refrained from being arrogant and domineering, and Li Chang among other personal followers also understood Yang Zhenshan's temperament—he never liked to bully the weak.
The reason he whipped this official was because the official had just beaten some commoners passing by.
Despite having received the toll, he still hit someone, so this whip was well-deserved.
After being whipped, the official cried out in agony but didn't dare to retaliate, and he even hurriedly removed the barricade to let the Yang family's caravan pass.
Yang Zhenshan rode past without asking any further questions.
North of Jianxia Pass is difficult to ascend, and the same is true for the other side—although the slope is slightly gentler, it is quite long, stretching three to four miles.
