Chapter 274: People Are Not Human
Although this is a small county town, but there are a lot of case files, a spacious building is full of wooden boxes and bookshelves, and the face is full of files, it seems that the workload will be very huge, after coming to the government affairs records storage room, Hao Zhong can be stunned, will he not read all this?
Zou Tao saw Hao Zhong's surprised expression, guessed his thoughts, and explained, "It seems that you haven't done such a thing, and you don't need to look at these things, although it is to take over government affairs, but in fact, as long as you check the military supplies and see what is missing, if it is not enough to supplement with civilian materials, it is not very difficult, you hurry up and hand over the military affairs, and the military records here are all clear, maybe you can find something." ”
After listening to Hao Zhong, he walked to the military record storage room next door, and when Wang Xian Ling saw Hao Zhong leaving, he smiled and said to Zou Tao, "Come with me, the use of military supplies is recorded here, everything is prepared very properly according to the regulations of the imperial court, and there is absolutely no problem." ”
Zou Tao saw that Wang County Ling was rummaging through the record book, and asked, "Since Huiyang County is also divided into a town against Xianbei, why don't you see the soldiers stationed here, even if they have been transferred to Beiyuan County, there should be some of them staying here." ”
Wang Xianling took down a roll of bamboo slips from the top of a bookshelf, handed it to Zou Tao and said, "This record is the latest record of materials returning to Yang County, and it is also the most accurate information record, if you really want to check it, I will give it to you." ”
Zou Tao felt that it was a little strange for Wang Xianling to say this, the record was originally meant to be shown to himself, and he said what this nonsense was doing, but he was not interested in caring about his words, so he reached out to take it.
When Zou Tao opened the bamboo slips to check them, he found that the surface was blank, and there was no trace, could it be that Wang Xian had taken the wrong order? Zou Tao walked to the window and looked at the sunlight carefully, maybe it was because it had been stored for too long, and the handwriting might have faded, but the result was still blank.
Zou Tao was a little unhappy at this time, wasn't Wang Xianling playing tricks on himself? He actually found a roll of empty bamboo slips for himself, and his work was too careless, so he wanted to directly take charge of Wang Xianling.
However, when Zou Tao looked at Wang Xianling, something strange happened, only to see a large amount of red gas coming out of the spacious room from nowhere, and more and more, surging towards him, Zou Tao immediately subconsciously held the sword on his waist, and said to Wang Xianling, "Wang Xianling, what are these gases? How did they come to the room, could it be that the file is on fire?"
Wang Xian Ling didn't care about what Zou Tao said, his eyes were fixed on him, and when the red mist filled the whole room, he rushed towards him, and Zou Tao had already arrived at the door at this time, and wanted to leave the room quickly.
But before Zou Tao walked out of the door, Wang Xianling crashed into him from behind, directly knocking his soul out of his body, Zou Tao was horrified, only to feel that he was hit by a huge force to the door, and then his body suddenly became lighter, through the door, floating in the air, and the outside world was all composed of red mist, and there was nothing else.
Zou Tao felt more and more scared, and didn't know what was going on, so he immediately turned around and looked at Wang Xianling, maybe he knew what was going on, but what Zou Tao saw was that Wang Xianling slowly embedded himself in his body, completely fused with his body, and then before he could understand what was going on, he fell into the bottomless red mist.
At this time, Hao Zhong, who was reading the military records and troop transfer materials next door, suddenly heard the sound of impact, which came from the room where Zou Tao was, although it may be the sound of the file falling, but after many years of experience on the battlefield, Hao Zhong could accurately judge that this was definitely a collision between people, so he immediately left the room and rushed to Zou Tao's side, maybe something happened to happen.
And when Hao Zhong rushed to the file room, what he saw was Zou Tao flipping through the scrolls alone, and nothing seemed to have happened, so he immediately calmed down, it seemed that he was too careful, but he still asked well, "Zou Tao, where is the Wang County Order? Wasn't he still here just now?" I'm still waiting for him to hand it over to me." ”
Zou Tao continued to check the file, and said lightly, "He has something to do temporarily, and he just left, but it doesn't matter if he doesn't have him, we can handle it ourselves." ”
Hao Zhongke didn't know what to do next, so he approached Zou Tao and asked, "Don't laugh, your work has been received, I haven't done it yet?" Where did Wang Xian's order go, Zhang Xiao said to rest for one night, I don't want to work overnight. ”
Zou Tao still said as before, "It's okay, don't worry, everything is wrapped up in me, make sure you have enough time to rest, you wait first." ”
Although Zou Tao's performance was normal, but after Hao Zhong approached him, a chill suddenly rose from the bottom of his heart, and he felt that something was wrong, I don't know why he suddenly felt like this, could it be that he was sick?
Hao Zhong stretched his muscles, forced the coolness of retreating, patted Zou Tao's shoulder, and said impatiently, "What are you waiting for, what's so nice about these things, don't you hate reading the file the most?
Zou Tao was still the same at this time, even if Hao Zhong was already pulling him, he still didn't move, and said, "You be patient, it's useless to count these things, but you still have to find out the parts that are needed, you wait a minute, don't always urge me." ”
Hao Zhong found that Zou Tao was really wrong at this time, as if he was in pain, so he turned sideways to check him, and found that Zou Tao was not consulting the file at all at this time, but closed his eyes and endured painfully, his face was covered with sweat.
This made Hao Zhong panic, Zou Tao was still fine just now, why did he become like this for a while, could it be that he was sick? Hao Zhong immediately stepped forward to support him, and found that the sweat on his face was cold, it seemed that something was really wrong, getting sick at this juncture is a very bad thing, and the consequences of delaying the march are very serious.
Hao Zhong hurriedly said, "Zou Tao, it turns out that you are sick, so why do you still insist on working? It seems that you didn't just get this disease, there must have been a while, you don't have to worry about government affairs, I'll notify Zhang Xiao and let him replace you." ”
Zou Tao saw that Hao Zhong wanted to leave, he was very anxious, and reluctantly shouted, "You don't need to go to him, he will naturally come to us when he finds Zhu Pinhang, I said I'm fine, just slow down, you wait." ”
But how could Hao Zhong let Zou Tao not care about his body for official business, so he ignored him and walked outside, wanting to inform Zhang Xiao and Zhu Pinhang, believing that they should be able to easily cure Zou Tao's illness by using spells.
Zou Tao felt that Hao Zhong had left, but his current state was powerless to stop him, so he had to let him go, and then leaned against the bookshelf, and after a long period of time, he finally eased up, wiped the sweat on his face, and chased in the direction where Hao Zhao left.
At the same time, Zhang Xiao has already visited the entire Huiyang County, but there is no trace of Zhu Pinhang, he thinks it is very strange, he said to look around, but now he can't even feel a little bit of his breath, where did he go?
Zhang Xiao returned to the central area, thinking that Zhu Pinhang should not go out of the city, since he had decided to spend the night in the city, there was no need to go out, but he really couldn't think of where he would be, and at this time Zhang Xiao carefully looked around, and found that something was wrong, the soldiers were noisy and noisy when they first entered the city, and the voices were boiling, but now it was silent, which didn't seem to fit the character of the soldiers, right?
Zhang Xiao looked carefully at the soldiers in each store, and found that they were all leaning on the table at this time, as if they were contemplative, and as if they had fallen asleep, but the strange thing was that everyone looked like this, as if they had been discussed, some of them were too weird, and Zhang Xiao also found that the various shopkeepers who stayed in the store and were very hospitable were nowhere to be seen at this time, and there was no shopkeeper in the dozens of shops around to entertain the soldiers.
When Zhang Xiao was still confused, Hao Zhong ran over and said breathlessly, "Guard Zhang, Zou Tao seems to be sick, and he broke out in a cold sweat for some reason, but he still has to keep working, you know spells, do you want to take a look?"
