Section 535 Ward Round 3
The warehouse official opened the warehouse tremblingly, and then pushed the door open very slowly. The heavy-armored swordsman couldn't bear his temper anymore, so he pushed him away and kicked him over. Hearing the sound of a frame, the old door obviously couldn't withstand his strength and fell inward, causing the dust inside to scatter in all directions. The people outside were caught off guard and almost all were covered in dust. The heavy armored sword master and the swift wind sword master were so frightened that they fled in a panic.
They were nimble and could avoid it naturally. The poor fat man who opened the door was not so lucky. In an instant, his whole body was swallowed up by smoke-like dust. By the time he ran out, coughing, his whole body was almost black. Yes.
After the Gale Sword Master escaped, he glared at the Heavy Armor Sword Master with a slightly dissatisfied look, which obviously meant to blame him for kicking in the door. The heavy-armored sword master was also extremely aggrieved and hurriedly explained with a wry smile: "I didn't try hard enough? It's because the broken door is not strong!"
The Gale Sword Master obviously thought he was shirking responsibility. However, in front of everyone, he was too embarrassed to say anything about the Heavy Armored Sword Master, so he could only glance at him, and then shook his hands to release two waves of fighting spirit, forming a weak whirlwind that quickly blew away the dust. .
The Gale Sword Master's hand is very light, and he can release the extremely destructive fighting energy so gently, which shows that he has deep attainments in the application of fighting energy. Even Lao Xie couldn't help but his eyes lit up, and he thought to himself, "Anyone who can become a sword master really has two tricks up his sleeve!"
After blowing the dust, the Gale Sword Master walked directly into the warehouse, and after a brief sweep, his face suddenly turned livid. It turns out that there is indeed food here, but it is old food, and it is the kind that has become moldy and black, and even dogs cannot eat it.
The reason why these old grains are still here. The reason why they were not thrown away was that the officials at the warehouse needed these junk items to make up the money. In fact, these old grains were originally collected by officials from outside at a super low price, and then replaced with new grains in the warehouse. The new grains were naturally used by officials to make profits. As for the old grains, they were piled here. After some time, they could dispose of them on the grounds that the grains were moldy.
The so-called disposal does not mean throwing away. Instead, it only says thrown away on the books, but in fact it is still here. In this way, they can wait for the new food to arrive, then replace it with new food and put it into their pockets. In short, with this cycle year after year, they can distribute a batch of new grains openly every year. That's why these broken grains are so old that even rats won't visit them.
It is precisely because of this that Lao Xie did not touch the broken food here. And today, the little fat man was forced to do nothing by the heavy-armored sword master. Because if he didn't come up with something, it would be a big problem when the Heavy Armored Sword Master opened each warehouse and found them empty, so he could only use these old grains for the time being. Hope it can pass temporarily.
But this idea is obviously unrealistic. After looking at these dark things, the Gale Sword Master and the Heavy Armor Sword Master turned green with anger.
"Wahaha!" When Lao Xie saw this, he immediately mocked: "I didn't expect that. The dignity of the two giants in the military is worth a bunch of **** like this!"
Even though the Gale Sword Master was so good-tempered, he couldn't help but get furious after hearing what Lao Xie said. He went over and grabbed the little fat man by the collar and said angrily: "The two commanders of our military department are here to find you. Are you going to give us this stuff if we want military rations?"
"No, no, this is a misunderstanding. I didn't expect it. The stored grain here has become so rotten!" The guy hurriedly argued: "However, these are indeed our only grains. Since they are rotten, it is obviously It can’t be distributed to the troops. But please don’t worry, we have already dispatched the rations and they are all on the way. Can’t I personally deliver the rations to you tomorrow?”
"Hmph. Do you think I am really an idiot?" Gale Wind Sword Master sneered: "Such a big warehouse. It supplies the needs of hundreds of thousands of troops. How can it be possible that there is no food stored at all?"
"Boy, you seem to be trying to trick us?" The heavy-armored sword master couldn't help but said angrily: "Okay, didn't you say there isn't one? Then I'll find it myself!"
"Come here!" The heavy-armored sword master immediately shouted: "Open all the grain depots for me!" As he said this, he snatched the key from the little fat man's hand and threw it to his guards. .
Those guards were all soldiers who followed the two sword masters. When they saw their coach being humiliated with moldy food, they were all very angry. Now that he got the order, he immediately pushed away the soldiers guarding the grain depot like a wolf and a tiger, and opened the doors one after another. The result was naturally shocking. Among more than a dozen grain warehouses, only two warehouses had grain, and they were all moldy and black junk. The other warehouses were all empty.
Seeing this situation, the Gale Sword Master and the Heavy Armor Sword Master were dumbfounded. They originally thought that the guy in the warehouse was just stingy and refused to show his face, but they never expected that there was really no food. You know, according to regulations, food that can feed 100,000 people for 10 months can be stored here all year round. In other words, the military headquarters should be able to see mountains of food here at any time. After all, no one knows when the war will happen, so it is extremely important to store more food. As military commanders, the Gale Sword Master and the Heavy Armor Sword Master are very clear about this.
Of course, they also know that the guys guarding the grain depot will definitely be corrupt, but there must be a limit to corruption? The grain reserves in the military headquarters will be of great use at critical moments. If there is a war on the front line and there is no food, wouldn't it be a big deal? So no matter how greedy these guys are, under normal circumstances, they can only embezzle a small part of it, and they cannot lose it all. However, the Gale Sword Master and the Heavy Armor Sword Master never dreamed that the military supply warehouse was really empty, and there was no edible food to be found.
At this time, the expressions of the two people became gloomy. They knew that today's matter was serious!
As for the officials in the warehouse, their faces were ashen, and almost all of them were slumped on the ground, just like corpses. Some were even so scared that they peed.
Lao Xie, on the other hand, still looked indifferent and said with a smile: "Oh my, I didn't expect that we have really wronged you sir? Isn't there really no food in this grain depot? I don't know what else is going on. Are the supplies also vacant? ”
The Gale Sword Master and the Heavy Armor Sword Master looked at each other, and both felt as if their hearts were weighed down by a stone, extremely heavy. The Gale Sword Master then said in a deep voice: "Come here, open all the warehouses for me! Check carefully!"
"Yes!" The personal guards also realized that the situation was serious and did not dare to neglect at all. They hurriedly searched for the keys from the officials and opened more than a hundred warehouses. The result was of course extremely bad. Most of the warehouses inside are empty spaces. Some warehouses contain items, but they are all old and tattered items that cannot be used.
After a while, the two captains of the Gale Sword Master and the Heavy Armor Sword Master ran over with sweat on their faces. One of them said: "Report, there are only more than 20 warehouses in the warehouse, and the other eighty Many warehouses are empty! ”
"There are almost no usable things in here!" Another person also said nervously: "All that is left is rags!"
"What?" The two sword masters were shocked. The situation was countless times worse than they expected. They originally expected that the people in the grain warehouse were just greedy, but they didn't expect that the entire warehouse was emptied.
The heavy-armored sword master immediately said angrily: "How could this happen? Don't you even have large-scale siege equipment?"
"No! I didn't see a single instrument!" the guard of the heavy-armored sword master said.
"What about the new iron bows made by the Stephen family?" Gale Sword Master said hurriedly: "I remember that a batch was put into storage last month, and I haven't even had time to collect it yet!"
“I haven’t seen it!” the guard of the Gale Sword Master said: “There are only tattered bows that have been stored for at least 50 years, not even a slightly sophisticated ox-horn bow, let alone an iron bow!”
"Damn it!" The two sword masters were finally angry, and they rushed to Stanford together.
"Stanford, please tell me why the warehouse is empty?" the heavy-armored sword master said angrily.
"It was stolen!" Stanford said with a grimace.
"Stolen?" Gale Wind Sword Master was so angry that he pointed at the more than a thousand guards around him and said angrily: "With the security methods here and the five thousand garrison nearby, how could this place be stolen?" Steal? ”
"Even if it is stolen, there should be a limit, right?" The heavy-armored swordsman then said angrily, "In such a large warehouse, materials are piled up like mountains. Even if a dragon came to steal them, they would only be crushed to death by these things. ! But you said everything was stolen? Oh my god, do you think we are idiots? ”
In fact, it is no wonder that the heavy-armored swordsman said so. The theft this time is really too strange. After all, there are so many things that when piled up, they must be as big as a mountain. Even if Lao Xie used four space rings to steal them, it would take him a lot of genius. So they simply can't imagine who can steal a mountain!
"This~" Stanford said with a grimace: "Two adults, I know it's unbelievable to say this, but in fact it was stolen. Now that things have come to this point, do I still need to lie to you? ”
"Then tell me, who can empty a mountain under the eyes of an army of five thousand?" Swift Wind Sword Master sneered.
"I don't know either. Didn't you catch them if you knew?" Stanford said aggrievedly: "Those guys are elusive and use hallucinogens. Every time they fascinate the guards at night, Then he was a big thief, and every time he emptied several warehouses, the warehouse was empty in a few days!"
