Chapter 1416: Smelling a Strange Smell

Wang Ben and Zhang Han, who were far away in Israel, really didn't know about what happened in Xianyang.

Send news to the court every day, either to report peace, or to report some new discoveries!

But it's all trivial, and it's been a while, and there hasn't been any major breakthrough!

The yamen of Israel also went, and all the officials have checked it, and there are no problems!

"Lao Zhang, you say...... Is there a problem with this state? So many people were sent out, why haven't they found useful clues until now? Didn't even find Wang Zhiming and others? ”

While staring at the craftsman installing the phone, Wang Ben glanced around and whispered to Zhang Han beside him.

"Who knows! With such a large state, it is indeed difficult to find a few people in Tibet! ”

Zhang Han also didn't score.

Counting the days, it has been more than a month since I arrived in Israel, and I have not found anything abnormal except for the people in the yamen, the newspaper office, and the money village!

But this is also good news, at least the people in the court are fine.

The people also lived and produced normally as usual, and there was no mess in the pot!

10,000 soldiers went out to install telephones, and they all went to places where the people were relatively dense, and they did not reply to any useful messages for the time being!

"If it goes on like this, even if it takes another half a year, you won't be able to return to Xianyang!"

This place is far less interesting than the native of Great Qin, Wang Ben sighed helplessly.

"I think we led the troops to fight back then, and we went for several years, isn't it the same!"

Zhang Han got up a lot this time, not only did he not mock, but he also persuaded him.

"Alas! It's different! ”

Wang Ben sighed lightly.

One is that he is old and does not have the momentum he had when he was young.

The second is that I am used to living a comfortable and lively life, and then I feel that I am not used to this strange and deserted environment!

Now he understands better why His Majesty proposed the retirement system, people are old, and their mood has changed!

"It's ......!"

Zhang Han nodded in agreement, then frowned, his nose twitched, his eyes also turned back and forth to scan the surroundings, and he lowered his voice and said, "Lao Wang, do you smell any strange smell?" ”

"The taste? What does it taste like? ”

Wang Ben sniffed, but didn't notice any smell.

looked left and right, except for a few people who had just beaten the side, there was nothing else abnormal, "Lao Zhang, you shouldn't dislike the two people who just passed, right?" On this hot day, it's normal for people to have a little smell on their bodies! You and I also smell of sweat! ”

"No, no, no! That's not what I'm talking about! ”

However, Zhang Han's face was grim, he waved his hand again and again, twitched his nose, and sniffed hard.

"What's that? I don't think it smells like anything, do you? ”

Wang Ben took a few steps forward, sniffed carefully, and suddenly opened his eyes wide.

After Zhang Han saw his reaction, he guessed that he should have smelled something abnormal, "What is it?" ”

"Yes...... Smell of medicine! ”

In addition to physical fitness, the use of thermal weapons must be practiced every day.

Therefore, Wang Ben is very familiar with the taste of the medicine!

Zhang Han's subconscious reaction was also a medicine, but when he smelled it carefully, he felt that it was not very similar, and he was always unsure.

With his confirmation, it is basically confirmed, "How can there be a smell of medicine here?" ”

The soldiers were equipped with hot weapons, but they would not shoot at will unless they were in a crisis situation.

Besides, there was no movement at all before, how could there be a smell of medicine out of thin air?

"I don't know!"

Wang Ben couldn't figure out the situation, so he could only look for the source of the smell in the air.

The two of them twitched their noses hard and headed for the source of the smell.

The craftsmen working on the telephone poles almost laughed out loud when they saw their funny scene!

"This way, this way!"

"No, it's over here!"

"It's ...... over here!"

The smell of the medicine is not very strong, and the two will have disagreements from time to time.

Fortunately, in the end, the target was locked on a farmer's house!

The two did not call the soldiers to come, but after exchanging glances, they pretended to be thirsty and knocked on the door to ask for water!

However, after knocking on the door for a long time, no one opened it, but the smell of the medicine became stronger and stronger!

"Bang ......"

Afraid that he would not be able to find any clues if he went in late, Wang Ben hurriedly increased his knocking on the door.

The already dilapidated gate had begun to shake with a muffled sound.

If no one comes out inside, the dilapidated gate will be smashed by Wang Ben!

"It's coming, it's coming, don't knock!"

After another moment, someone in the courtyard finally agreed.

It was an old man, about sixty years old, with a slumped body and simple clothes, no different from ordinary people, but he spoke very politely, "What are you two doing?" ”

"Oh! This big brother, the two of us were sent by the imperial court to install a phone in our state, and at this moment the sun is scorching, thirsty, and I want to beg for saliva to drink! ”

Zhang Han arched his hand politely, but his eyes quickly scanned the courtyard to see if there were any clues.

Wang Ben is the same, he looks around the moment the door opens!

"Oh! It turned out to be a phone, so come with me! ”

The old man did not refuse, and led the two of them to the house.

The small courtyard should not have been built by the imperial court immigrants, but built by themselves.

The house is not big, the door is the kitchen, the left should be the bedroom, and the right side should put some sundries.

There was a man and a woman in the house, who looked to be in their thirties.

The man is burning wood, and the woman is carrying a shovel to stir-fry.

"Ahem......"

As soon as Wang Ben stepped into the kitchen, he was choked by the green smoke in the kitchen and coughed.

Zhang Han also waved his hand frequently, trying to fan away the green smoke in front of him!

"Oops! Forgive me, this stove is not easy to burn, and my son is also stupid, and the house is full of smoke and ......! ”

The old man hurriedly explained, and smiled awkwardly, "You two don't have to enter the door, just scoop some water for you and bring it out!" ”

"It's okay!"

Although the room was filled with green smoke, Wang Ben and Zhang Han still followed the door to see if they could find the abnormality.

They could still smell the strong smell of gunpowder when they stood at the gate.

But after being admitted to the hospital, this smell was gradually masked by the green smoke of burning wood.

I don't know if it's a coincidence or something!

"It's good!"

The old man did not refuse, but walked to the water tank, scooped two large bowls of water with a gourd, and brought them over.

"Thank you!"

The two took the cold water, Wang Ben pretended to be panicked, coughed a few times, and then encouraged: "Lao Zhang, let's go out and drink, it's so choking here, I can't open my eyes!" ”

"You have a lot to do in one day!"

Zhang Han muttered and cursed, and followed one after the other out of the house.

As they walked in front, they felt three pairs of eyes staring at them behind them!

With his back to a few people, he lifted the bowl and tilted his head to make a drinking gesture.

In fact, they didn't drink a drop of water!

There is no way, they always feel that something is wrong with this family, and they don't dare to drink the water they give at all!
