   Chapter 946 946. Digging Three Feet

  Li Hongjue shook his head, "This is a secret, and my father never let me approach the barracks, so I don't know."

  The men were taken aback for a moment, then they all looked at Li Hongjue, master, you have exposed your identity!

  Li Hongjue didn't react at first, but after a while, he turned his head to look at Chu Tang furtively, he was secretly relieved, the other party didn't respond, probably didn't notice what he said.

  But in the next second, his expression couldn't help but froze, and there was another possibility that he didn't respond—the other party already knew his identity.

  Chu Tang said with a natural expression, "No need to read, I know you are the prince of King Dongling."

  Li Hongjue felt a pair of eyes peeping at him in the dark, and asked eagerly, "How did you know? When did you know?"

  Chu Tang said flatly, "I have my own news channel. As for when I found out, it doesn't matter, right?"

  Li Hongjue looked at Chu Tang. This person looked calm and indifferent, but actually gave off a feeling of unfathomable. What is his background?

   "So I'm the clown."

   "Don't underestimate yourself so much, you are already fine." Chu Tang pointed to the jade pendant on Li Hongjue's waist, "If you put the jade pendant away, it shouldn't be so easy to expose."

  Several subordinates went to look at Li Hongjue's jade pendant together again, their movements and demeanors were very synchronized, and it was quite joyful to watch.

  Li Hongjue quickly put away the jade pendant, "I can't tell you are comforting me."

   "I'm not comforting you, I'm just reminding you." Chu Tang put his hand on his forehead and looked in one direction for a while, "Take me to the barracks of the Dongling garrison."

   "No." Li Hongjue refused without thinking.

  Chu Tang looked back at Li Hongjue, his eyes were dark and calm, but there was an inexplicable sense of oppression, "Why not?"

  Li Hongjue hesitated and said, "Taking you there would be betraying my father..."

  Chu Tang looked down at the arrow in his hand, "This is what you told me just now. If it really counts as a betrayal, has it already been betrayed?"

  Li Hongjue insisted not to bring it, "I just wanted to help you solve the mystery, and it was considered as helping a friend. If I took you to the military camp, it would be betrayal. I will not do anything to betray my father."

  Chu Tang turned the arrow in his hand, and said slowly, "Are you forcing me to use means?"

  Li Hongjue said firmly, "I won't tell you even if you beat me to death."

   "Okay." This guy probably doesn't know much, so he should ask someone who knows, Chu Tang left the place in a flash.

  Li Hongjue and the others felt a flash in front of their eyes, and they disappeared.

  The subordinates looked around, feeling uneasy, "Master, where are you?"

  Li Hongjue said helplessly, "He's gone. Don't you all say that his martial arts are extremely high? Naturally, his lightness kung fu is not bad either."

  The subordinate asked worriedly, "Master, what should we do now?"

   "What can I do, go back." Li Hongjue was a little annoyed, he really wanted to make friends with Chu Tang, but now he made the relationship deadlocked.

  Hands handed a gift box to Li Hongjue, "Master, our gift hasn't been delivered yet."

   "Give it to me next time." Li Hongjue took the gift box in his hand, turned around and flew away. Several of his subordinates looked at each other and left together.

  …

   Barracks.

  Chu Qingzhi entered the main tent in the form of Meng Shengdong, and seeing Tang Jinghong was the only one in the main tent, she changed into her original appearance, "Jinghong."

   "Qingzhi?" Tang Jinghong got up in surprise, and put a cushion on the seat for Chu Qingzhi to sit on. He moved a chair and sat beside him.

  Chu Qingzhi put the arrow on the table, "Do you see which military camp or which force used the arrow?" She didn't fully trust Li Hongjue.

  Tang Jinghong picked it up and looked at it, then held the arrowhead in one hand and the shaft in the other, and separated the two. The part of the arrow shaft covered by the arrowhead turned blue. He smelled it and said, "This is an arrow used in military camps."

  Chu Qingzhi asked, "Is it the Dongling defenders?"

  Tang Jinghong said impartially, "There is such a possibility, but there are not only defenders in Dongling, but also border guards. They also use this kind of arrows."

   "The border guards are also suspected?" Chu Qingzhi thought, "This is the arrow used to kill my fourth sister. The border guards probably wouldn't do that, right?"

  Tang Jinghong frowned, "Qingzhi, I can't confirm the situation in the border guards right now. They are next to Dongling, and they must have been eaten and infiltrated."

  Chu Qingzhi nodded, "That's right, maybe someone stole the arrows from the barracks, and then planted the blame."

  As soon as she finished speaking, a guard's voice came from outside, "General, General Chen of the Frontier Army, please see me."

  The two looked at each other, which was too strange. They were talking about the border guards, and the other party came to the door.

  Chu Qingzhi hid behind the screen, Tang Jinghong took a look and said, "Let General Chen in."

   "Yes." The guard lifted the curtain, "General Chen, please come inside."

General Chen was wearing armor. He was a burly man. He was tall and bold, but he had an extremely delicate mind. He was good at the art of war. He was a rare general. "I met General Tang."

  Tang Jinghong sat back on the main seat, "Excuse me, how can General Chen come to me when you have time?"

  General Chen looked sad, "General Tang, you must help your old friend."

  Tang Jinghong asked General Chen to sit down, and asked with concern, "What happened to the barracks?"

  General Chen sighed, "A major event happened." He lowered his voice, "All the arrows in the barracks disappeared overnight. I searched all over the barracks, but I didn't find any clues."

  Tang Jinghong twisted his fingers, "Did you dig three feet?"

   "Excavated." General Chen frowned, "I led people to dig a radius of ten meters, but still found nothing. General Tang, are there really ghosts in this world?"

  Tang Jinghong did not believe in ghosts, "General Chen, you must have overlooked something."

  General Chen was full of sorrow, "General Tang, Xia Sangguo is about to move recently, the army has been mobilized frequently, and there seems to be a sign of war. Now that something like this happened in the barracks, I am really worried."

   Daling Kingdom, Xiasang Kingdom, and Ningyuan Kingdom are equal in national strength, and the three pillars stand on each other as enemies.

  In the early years, the Three Kingdoms fought in a melee, and Tang Jinghong, Xia Qi, Ning Shangfei and other famous generals emerged. It took ten years of fighting to end the chaotic situation.

  Now all countries are recuperating, and these generals are also working hard to maintain peace. Only those who have been on the battlefield know the cruelty of war. They all hope that there will be no more wars in their lifetime.

  If someone dares to provoke a war, he will be killed!

  Tang Jinghong also became worried when he heard this. The last thing he wanted to see was war between countries. "General Chen, take a rest first. I will discuss it with my soldiers and send someone to investigate."

  General Chen got up and said solemnly, "Thank you, General Tang."

  Tang Jinghong ordered, "Come here, take General Chen to the tent to rest."

   "Yes, General." The guard lifted the curtain, "General Chen, please."

  General Chen warned, "General Tang, we must hurry up, I am afraid that something will happen, and there will be serious consequences."

  Tang Jinghong nodded, "I know."

  General Chen finally left in peace. As soon as he left, Chu Qingzhi came out from behind the screen, "Jing Hong, it seems that the border guards really have a problem."

  Tang Jinghong frowned, "I don't know how you are doing now."

  Chu Qingzhi pursed her lips slightly, "I'll go and have a look, just to investigate about my fourth sister."

  Tang Jinghong hugged Chu Qingzhi tenderly, "Fortunately, I have you."

  Chu Qingzhi smiled slightly, "Do you have anything else to say? If there's nothing else, I'll go get ready."

  Tang Jinghong said, "It's fine for the time being. If there is anything, I will tell you with the Golden Feather Phoenix."

   "Okay, then I'm leaving." Chu Qingzhi changed into Meng Shengdong's appearance and left the barracks.

  …

  Bright organization stronghold.

   "What did you say?" Li Hongjue was taken aback, "My elder brother died on a boat?"

  The subordinate said, "Master, I just got the news, now everyone has rushed to the river, are you going?"

  Li Hongjue put away his exposed expression, curled his lips, "What are you going to do, he's not my big brother, he usually bullies and laughs at me, so it's just right to die."

  The subordinate thought for a while, "Indeed, it's a good death."

   "But..." Li Hongjue hesitated for a moment, "Do you know how he died?"

   "Drown." The subordinate said.

  Li Hongjue waved his hand and said affirmatively, "Let me tell you, my elder brother has learned to swim and even dive in order to guard against assassination. It is impossible for him to be drowned."

  The subordinate said fearfully, "Everyone says there are ghosts, and everyone else who knows how to swim drowns."

  Li Hongjue was thoughtful, "Then this is strange, did he really offend some god?"

  The subordinate asked, "Master, what should we do now?"

  Li Hongjue said, "We don't have to do anything, or it would be bad if we are misunderstood by the father. He doesn't like our brothers killing each other the most."

  The subordinate said, "Understood, master."

  Li Hongjue thought for a moment, left the stronghold, and went to the stronghold of the Yun Organization. It was a coincidence that Chu Tang just came back when he arrived, "Brother Chu, wait."

  Chu Tang narrowed his eyes slightly, and asked inquiringly, "What's the matter?"

  Li Hongjue asked straight to the point, "My elder brother Li Hongjin died, did you know?"

  Chu Tang thought to himself, the news spread quite quickly, so many people knew about it, "I heard, is there any problem?"

  Li Hongjue frowned and said, "They all said that ghosts killed him, but I don't believe it. My elder brother is very good at water, and he can never drown."

  Chu Tang was surprised, his expression remained unchanged, as if nothing had happened, "You are wrong, you must know that drowned people can swim."

  Li Hongjue, "..."

  Li Hongjue disagreed, "Don't you think it's strange? Even if what you said is right, how do other people explain it?"

  Chu Tang looked at Li Hongjue, "What exactly do you want to say?"

  Li Hongjue said unexpectedly, "I want to hire you to investigate this matter."

  Chu Tang, “…”

  The man was killed by him, and now someone hired him to investigate the whole thing, this is the first time he encountered such a wonderful thing.
