Chapter 1370: A Familiar Back
"Humph! I've lived most of my life, and if I want to do something in front of us, I'm afraid I'll have to go back and practice for a few more years! ”
Wang Ben chuckled lightly and sat back to watch the next good show.
"Since we don't know what tricks Longxi is playing, we will see the tricks and wait for them to strike first!"
Zhang Han nodded in agreement.
After a while, Shi Jianduo personally brought a pot of tea over and asked them to drink it first, and the wine and food would arrive immediately.
Although the two of them nodded on their faces, they categorically did not dare to drink this tea!
The whole Longxi is full of weirdness, and they will never easily enter anything until they understand the situation!
Who knows what poison is inside?
"Keep up! Keep up! ”
After a while, a team of officials passed by the door, seeing that there seemed to be some task to deal with, and took the lead in urging continuously.
"Lao Zhang, what do you see at the last person? Don't you feel familiar? ”
After Wang Ben found the abnormality, he hurriedly dialed Zhang Han beside him.
At this time, Zhang Han was scanning the room to see if he could find something, and after he said it, he moved his eyes to the team of officials.
It's a pity that the speed of the officials is too fast, and before he can see clearly, he has disappeared around the corner!
"Lao Wang, I'm afraid you're not mistaken, right? We have just arrived in Longxi, can you still meet acquaintances? Even if you have acquaintances, you can't be on an errand in this mansion, right? ”
Zhang Han waved his hand, thinking that he was suspicious and misunderstood.
"I really don't have any relatives in Longxi, but this back is too familiar! Definitely where have I seen it! ”
Wang Ben scratched his head and tried to remember, his expression was like constipation, and he was very painful.
"Hey! Since you don't have relatives in Longxi, what's the use of remembering it? If you are not an acquaintance, you will not tell us the specific situation here! ”
Zhang Han smiled and shook his head.
"That's not right! I've definitely seen this guy! It's so familiar! ”
The more he couldn't think of it, the more painful Wang Ben became, so he simply closed his eyes and pondered carefully.
After a moment, he suddenly opened his eyes.
"What? Did you really think about it? ”
Seeing this, Zhang Han asked with a smile.
"That's right! I know who this person is! ”
Wang Ben nodded, his face was even worse than just now.
"Who is it?"
Zhang Han felt that something might not be quite right, and immediately restrained his smile.
"Do you remember the merchant we met on the street?"
"There are so many merchants in the city, which one are you talking about?"
"Which one else could there be? It's the one I went up to inquire about the situation and almost started with him! ”
"Oh! Is that the one who doesn't do business with it? ”
After he reminded him like this, Zhang Han suddenly remembered.
"That's right! That's him! This guy is so weird, so I'm very familiar with his back! It's definitely him, that's right! ”
Wang Ben said firmly.
"That's strange, how did a merchant suddenly become a servant again?"
Zhang Handton felt strange.
"What do you think......?"
Wang Ben didn't answer the rhetorical question, his eyes were slightly deep.
"You mean to say...... The people we see on the street today, are there problems with whether they are in order or not? Are they all pretended to be officials? ”
The two have been partners for so many years, and Zhang Han almost understood the meaning of his words.
"It's not necessarily all pretends, but there's definitely something wrong with it! Even the prosperity of the entire Longxi City is problematic! ”
Wang Ben said firmly.
"Look, I said before that I didn't see any children along the way, there is definitely a problem, you still don't believe it, and you make excuses to excuse them, now you believe it, right? How can a city of such a size not even see a child? Even if you don't see it, there must be the sound of children playing, playing, and crying, right? ”
Zhang Han combined this matter with what he had thought of before, and the two were perfectly integrated.
Because the scenes on the streets are fake, there are no children.
Adults can act, but children can't, so they simply didn't look for children!
"What is the purpose of this?"
Wang Ben couldn't figure it out.
"Maybe I'm afraid that someone will come to check ......!"
Zhang Han guessed: "If the imperial court really sends people to see such a prosperous scene in front of them, and there is no yellow sand along the way, and they can't keep it all the way back, no one will know about the things here!" ”
"Damn!"
Wang Ben gritted his teeth with hatred.
"On the way into the city, I watched people coming and going on the surface, and it was very lively! In fact, they are all cold, expressionless, and there is no look of the city at all! ”
After sorting out some clues, Zhang Han also understood what was so strange about this city.
There is just no fireworks!
In Xianyang, the enthusiastic shouting of street vendors, the sound of people bargaining with the boss, the sound of children playing and playing, and the short voices of the street people talking about their parents are intertwined, and the whole city is very lively.
And Longxi City only watched every household with the lights on, and people came and went in the city, as if it was very lively.
But when you taste it carefully, you feel that it doesn't taste right!
"You said those officials were running in a hurry, are they trying to find a way to deal with us?"
Wang Ben's back straightened and said resentfully.
"Haha! Now in the entire Longxi City, we and the soldiers are outsiders, what do you say? ”
Zhang Han laughed directly.
It was already obvious that everyone they had seen since they entered the city was hiding the truth and didn't want the truth to get out.
If they don't ask more questions and prepare to leave immediately, they may not be killed.
If they continue to get to the bottom of the matter, the things prepared by those officials will greet them!
"Lao Zhang, you wait here first, I'll go down and say hello!"
After speaking, Wang Ben got 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!
After a while, Shi Jianduo brought a few people to serve the food, "A few adults have been waiting for a long time, our small place, there is nothing to eat, coarse tea and light rice, I hope a few adults don't dislike it!" ”
Delicacies were placed on the table, and he said with a smile on his face.
"Yo! There are chickens and fish, this is still called coarse tea and light rice? What do the people usually eat? Isn't it pig food? ”
After figuring out some things, Wang Ben was furious, and he spoke with a gun and a stick.
"No, no, no! Xia Guan came from a small place, and he didn't know how to speak, so he definitely didn't mean that! The two adults are from Xianyang, and the lower officials are just afraid that they will neglect the two adults! ”
Shi Jianduo hurriedly apologized.
"Okay, Lao Wang, the history of the family is also kind! Isn't it, Shi Changshi? ”
Zhang Han pretended to be a good person and helped him exonerate, but the three words "Shi Changshi" at the end were particularly heavy, and it was impossible to think about it.
After hearing this, Shi Jianduo also understood that he was mocking himself.
can only grit his teeth and endure the current situation, squeeze out an ugly smile, nod and drink, "Hehe! Yes, yes! ”
