"Humph! I've lived for most of my life. If I want to do something in front of us, I'm afraid I have to go back and practice for a few more years!"
Wang Ben chuckled and waited to see what would happen next.
"Since we don't know what kind of tricks Longxi is playing, we will try our best to wait for them to make the first move!"
Zhang Han nodded in agreement.
After a while, Shi Jianduo personally brought a pot of tea over and asked them to drink it first. The food and wine would be here soon.
Although the two of them nodded, they absolutely did not dare to drink this tea!
The whole of Longxi is full of weirdness. They will never eat anything easily before they understand the situation!
Who knows what poison was in it?
"Follow up! Keep up, everyone!"
After a while, a group of government officials passed by the door. They seemed to have some tasks to deal with, and the leader kept urging them.
"Lao Zhang, look at the last person? Doesn't he look familiar?"
After Wang Ben noticed something unusual, he quickly called Zhang Han next to him.
At this time, Zhang Han was scanning the room to see if he could find anything. After he asked, he turned his attention to the team of government officials.
It's a pity that the government officials were too fast and disappeared around the corner before he could see clearly!
"Old Wang, are you mistaken? We have just arrived in Longxi, can you still meet an acquaintance? Even if you have an acquaintance, it is impossible for you to be an errand in this government office, right?"
Zhang Han waved his hand, thinking that he was suspicious and had made a mistake.
"It's true that I don't have any relatives in Longxi, but this figure looks so familiar! I've definitely seen it somewhere!"
Wang Ben scratched his head and tried to remember. His expression looked like he was constipated and in great pain.
"Hey! Since you have no relatives in Longxi, what's the use of remembering it? If you weren't an acquaintance, you wouldn't tell us the specific situation here!"
Zhang Han smiled and shook his head.
"No! I have definitely seen this person before! He is too familiar!"
The more he couldn't remember it, the more painful Wang Ben felt. He simply closed his eyes and thought about it carefully.
After a moment, his eyes suddenly opened.
"What? Did you really think of it?"
Zhang Han saw this and asked with a smile.
"Yes! I know who this person is!"
Wang Ben nodded, his face even worse than before.
"who is it?"
Zhang Han felt that something might be wrong and immediately stopped smiling.
"Do you remember the salesman we met on the street?"
"There are so many salesmen in the city, which one are you talking about?"
"Who else could it be? He was the one who came up to inquire about the situation and almost started fighting with him!"
"Oh! Is he the one who doesn't do business?"
After his reminder, Zhang Han suddenly remembered.
"Yes! It's him! This person is so strange, so I'm very familiar with his back! It's definitely him, that's right!"
Wang Ben said firmly.
"That's strange. Why did a salesman suddenly become a government servant?"
Zhang Hand felt strange.
"What do you think……?"
Wang Ben didn't answer the question, his eyes looked a little deep.
"You mean...the people we saw on the street today are all in trouble? Are they all pretending to be government officials?"
The two have been partners for so many years, and Zhang Han understood the meaning of his words almost instantly.
"It may not be that they are all pretending to be government officials, but there must be something wrong inside! Even the prosperous state of Longxi City as a whole is problematic!"
Wang Ben said firmly.
"Look, I told you before that I didn't see any children along the way. There was definitely something wrong. You still didn't believe it and found excuses to excuse them. Do you believe it now? How could there be even a child in such a big city? Missing? Even if not, there must still be sounds of children playing, playing, and crying, right?"
Zhang Han combined this matter with what he had thought of before, and the two merged perfectly.
Because the scenes on the street are all fake, there are no children.
Adults can act, but children can’t, so we simply didn’t look for children!
"What is the purpose of doing this?"
Wang Ben couldn't figure it out.
"Maybe I'm just afraid that someone will come to check...!"
Zhang Han guessed: "If the imperial court really sent people here, saw such a prosperous scene in front of them, and didn't see any yellow sand along the way, and returned the same way if they couldn't save it, no one would know what happened here! "
"hateful!"
Wang Ben gritted his teeth in hatred.
"The way into the city looks very lively with people coming and going! In fact, everyone is cold and expressionless, and they don't look like a busy city at all!"
After sorting out some clues, Zhang Han understood what was so strange about this city.
There is just no smoke!
In Xianyang, the enthusiastic cries of street vendors, the voices of people bargaining with their bosses, the sounds of children playing and playing, and the people on the streets gathering together to talk about their families. Various sounds are intertwined and make the whole city lively.
But Longxi City only saw the lights on in every house, and people were coming and going in the city, which seemed to be very lively.
But when I tasted it carefully, I felt something was wrong!
"You said those government officials were running around in a hurry, thinking of ways to deal with us?"
Wang Ben straightened his back and said angrily.
"Haha! Now in the entire Longxi City, we and the soldiers are the only outsiders, what do you think?"
Zhang Han burst out laughing.
It was already obvious that since they entered the city, everyone they met was hiding the truth and did not want the truth to spread.
If they had stopped asking any more questions and prepared to leave immediately, they might not have been killed.
If they continue to inquire further, the things prepared by the government officials will be greeted by them!
"Lao Zhang, you wait here, I'll go down and say hello!"
After speaking, Wang Ben stood up and whispered a few words to a soldier guarding the door, asking them to prepare in advance.
The soldier nodded and immediately went down to convey the message!
After a while, Shi Jianduo brought a few people to serve the food, "The adults have been waiting for a long time. There is nothing delicious in our small place. We only have simple food. I hope the adults won't dislike it!"
As delicious dishes were placed on the table, he said with a smile on his face.
"Hey! There are chickens and fish, but this is called a simple meal? So what do the people usually eat? Isn't it pig food?"
After figuring out some things, Wang Ben was furious and spoke with a gun and a stick.
"No, no, no! Xiaguan comes from a small place and is not very good at talking. I definitely don't mean that! The two adults are from Xianyang, and Xiaguan is just afraid of neglecting the two adults!"
Shi Jianduo quickly apologized.
"Okay, Lao Wang, Chang Shi also has good intentions! Right, Chang Shi?"
Zhang Han pretended to be a good guy and helped him out, but the last three words "Shi Changshi" were particularly heavy, making it impossible for anyone to think too much about it.
After hearing this, Shi Jianduo understood that he was mocking him.
But given the current situation, I could only grit my teeth and endure it, put on an ugly smile, nodded and said, "Haha! Yes, yes!"
