The officials at the city gate saw Zhou Xing and hurriedly saluted. "Zhou Shouzheng."
Zhou Xing nodded and was about to speak...
BOOM!!!
Suddenly, a deafening roar echoed from within the city.
Qin Fang's head snapped around in an instant.
But he saw nothing.
Yet, he immediately realized something was wrong.
'Because that explosion... it's too familiar!'
After a moment of shock, Zhou Xing reacted, his voice low. "Open the city gate."
The other officials were also distracted by the explosion. A few Soldiers had already rushed off to see what was happening. The two guards at the gate, however, just stared blankly, instinctively looking at Zhou Xing. "Huh?"
"Open the city gate,"
Zhou Xing repeated.
The men exchanged glances. 'That explosion clearly means trouble. Isn't Zhou Shouzheng going to check it out?'
But despite their thoughts, they didn't dare disobey... after all, the order to move the corpses out of the city came from the County Magistrate.
"Yes."
