Li Jin was over fifty this year and had reached the age where he knew heaven's mandate.
Today, just like usual, he wanted to take a stroll, but the town constable stopped him at the street corner.
"What do you mean by this?" Old man Li puffed his beard and glared.
The Li surname was the second most common in Qingyang Town, only after the Hu surname.
Therefore, as a clan elder of high seniority among the Li family, he was highly respected throughout Qingyang Town.
He knew this constable, a boy from the Wang family, but now cloaked in a dog's hide, he dared to block his way—it was an affront!
"Old Mr. Li," Constable Wang said, trying to be nice, "the town hall issued orders that a travel ban is in place for the time being. No one is allowed to wander the streets, everyone has to stay at home!"
"Why a travel ban?"
