Chapter 947 Chapter 947. One person missing

  Chu Qingzhi refused, "I have very important things to do now, so I don't have time to accept employment."

  Li Hongjue gave a lot of money, "Ten thousand taels."

  Chu Tang sized up Li Hongjue, his eyes sank, "Are you corrupt? Or have you searched for people's fat?"

  Li Hongjue raised his hand and swore, "My money comes from decent places, and I have never done anything harmful to nature. Don't get me wrong."

  Chu Tang thought for a while and said, "Send a hundred loads of grain to Tang Ying, and I'll check it for you."

  Tang Jinghong's barracks is called Tangying for short.

   Li Hongjue said briskly, "Deal!" From this point of view, Chu Tang is a person who is patriotic and dedicated to the people, and now he believes that Chu Tang is an undercover agent.

  Li Hongjue asked, "When are you going?"

  Chu Tang said, "Wait a minute, I'll make arrangements."

  Li Hongjue looked around, "Then I'll wait for you in the woods over there, and you've made arrangements to come and find me."

  Chu Tang nodded and entered the stronghold.

   "You're finally back." Hong Feiyun had been waiting for Chu Tang, and when he saw him come back, he hurried over, "Master Zuoshi will go crazy looking for you."

  Chu Tang was inexplicable, "What happened to him?"

  Hong Feiyun pointed to Tao Qingxiang's room, "Tao Qingxiang's leg hurts badly, I asked you to go and see, but you're not here, so don't be in a hurry."

   "I'll go there right away." Chu Tang flew over directly.

  Master Zuoshi scolded Chu Tang when he saw Chu Tang, "Where have you been? I sent people to look everywhere but you couldn't find it."

  Chu Tang ignored Mr. Zuo Shi, went straight into the room, closed the door, "What's wrong with you?"

  Tao Qingxiang was lying on the bed with a pale face and cold sweat on his forehead, "Am I going to die?" He looked at the medicine bowl on the table, "After I drank the medicine, I became like this."

  Chu Tang felt Tao Qingxiang's pulse, and a ray of spiritual light flew into his body to investigate the cause. After a while, "You have been poisoned."

  Tao Qingxiang looked at Chu Tang closely, sweating profusely, "Who poisoned me?"

   Chu Tang said, "Don't worry, let me see what kind of poison you have?"

  Tao Qingxiang calmed down, looking up at the sky, feeling a bit empty, who was going to harm him, he finally got better, now everything is back to normal, right?

  Chu Tang's voice sounded, "Don't worry if your poison is not fatal, it's just that the results of my previous injections on you have disappeared."

  Tao Qingxiang said helplessly, "What should we do now?"

  Chu Tang said, "I'll write you a prescription first to clear away the toxins in your body. After a while, I'll give you an injection and start all over again."

  Tao Qingxiang said weakly, "Thank you very much."

  Chu Tang took out the handkerchief and wiped his hands, then went to write the prescription, opened the door and went out, and gave the prescription to Master Zuo Envoy, "Give him this medicine first, and there is still a key ingredient missing, I will go outside to look for it."

  Master Zuo Shi did not believe Chu Tang, "What medicinal material? I will send someone to find it."

   Chu Tang said, "Purple Fu."

  I hadn’t heard of it, Master Zuo Shi frowned, “You look for it, and I’ll send someone to look for it too, so the chances of finding it are higher.”

  Chu Tang didn’t say anything, went back to his room to pack his things, just took this opportunity to go to the border to investigate the arrow.

  Hong Feiyun walked into the room, "Do you want me to go with you?"

  Chu Tang packed the medicinal materials, "You stay, and the information in the cloud organization depends on you to collect. If you leave, I don't know what happened here."

   "All right, when will you come back?" Hong Feiyun burst into tears in her heart, she will face Mu Xiao alone in the future.

   "I don't know, but it shouldn't be too long." Chu Tang whispered, "Pay more attention to Mr. Zuo Envoy."

   "I know, don't worry." Hong Feiyun said secretly, hoping that Chu Tang would be free next time when he came back.

  Chu Tang packed up his things and left the stronghold.

  In the woods, Li Hongjue caught up with Chu Tang after confirming that there was no one there, "Why did you take so long? I thought you wouldn't come out."

  Chu Tang saw through Li Hongjue's meaning at a glance, "What you want to ask is whether I am going to get rid of you, right?"

  Li Hongjue smiled flatteringly, "I don't think you can, otherwise you wouldn't talk to me just now."

  Chu Tang glanced at Li Hongjue, "Let's go."

  …

  Chu Tang sent the medicinal materials and the medicine he made to Tang Ying, and then rushed to the riverside with Li Hongjue.

  By the river at this time, the boat has been salvaged, and there are guards standing around, each looking bitter and bitter.

  The corpses have been confiscated, and they are now parked in the mortuary of the mall. Those people will not be buried until the investigation is clear.

  Chu Tang said, "I need to see the corpse."

  No matter what's inside, you have to do enough on the surface, after all, the other party has given so much food.

  Li Hongjue said, "I'll take you to the mall."

  Chu Tang stopped after taking two steps, and suddenly asked, "Why do you want to know the truth about this matter?"

  Li Hongjue said, "Can you not ask?" Afraid that Chu Tang would be suspicious, he said again, "You see, I didn't ask much about you."

  Chu Tang nodded, "Okay, don't ask this question, but you must ask another question. Why did you ask me to investigate this matter for you?"

  Li Hongjue said as it should, "Because you are an outsider, and you have such ability, who else can you turn to?"

  Chu Tang corrected, "I'm not investigating cases."

  Li Hongjue said with confidence, "Although you are not investigating the case, I know you have such ability, Chu Tang, you don't want to go back on your word, do you?"

   "I don't want to repent, I'm afraid I won't be able to find out." The truth of this matter is destined to be impossible for him to find out, so he probed Li Hongjue's tone in advance.

  Li Hongjue said, "It's okay, just do your best."

  Chu Tang felt relieved, "Let's go."

  Li Hongjue used his connections, and the two successfully entered the mortuary.

  The mortuary was gloomy, with bursts of cold, making people get goosebumps, and the air was filled with the smell of corpses, which was extremely unpleasant.

  Li Hongjue couldn't take it anymore after staying for a while, and covered his nose, "I'm going out first, you should watch first."

   After a while, Chu Tang heard the sound of "vomit, vomit". He walked forward, intending to turn around casually, after all, he knew what was going on.

  Suddenly, his eyes were fixed, and it seemed that one of the corpses was missing!

  Chu Tang counted again, and indeed one was missing, so he hurried out.

  Li Hongjue saw him, "Can't you take it too?"

  Chu Tang asked anxiously, "Who is responsible for salvaging the corpses and guarding the mortuary?"

  Seeing that Chu Tang's expression was not right, Li Hongjue asked worriedly, "What are you going to do?"

  An old voice came from the side, "I'm taking care of the mortuary, what's the matter?"

  Chu Tang walked towards the old man and asked eagerly, "Are all the corpses sent from the boat here?"

   "Yes, I have seen the corpses for so many years, and I have never missed one, please rest assured." The old man tremblingly fetched a booklet for Chu Qingzhi, "If you don't believe it, just read it yourself."

Chu Tang opened the booklet, and every corpse was recorded. He counted them. If the booklet matched the corpses in the mortuary, it meant that there were fewer corpses when they were delivered. In other words, there was one Still alive, escaped, or was washed away by the water, dead or alive.

  If someone is alive, the news that he is alive should spread, but there is no news now, what happened in this?

  Chu Tang couldn't figure it out.

  Returning rationally, the most urgent task now is to find this person...

   "Chu Tang, what's the matter with you?" Seeing Chu Tang's expression change, Li Hongjue raised his heart.

  Chu Tang ignored Li Hongjue, returned the booklet to the old man, and asked, "Who was the person who salvaged the corpse?"

   "Wait a minute, I'll call for you." The old man was very enthusiastic, "Son, this young man has something to ask you."

   This is a big man with a not very sound mind, he smiled naively, "Little brother, what's the matter?"

   After adjusting his attitude, Chu Tang said gently, "Did you salvage the corpse?"

  The big man nodded, "Yes, I salvaged it by myself, and I worked for a day."

  Chu Tang asked again, "Then did you miss anyone?"

  The big man affirmed, "Impossible, I checked it again after salvaging, and there are still people searching nearby, so I won't miss it."

   Chu Tang was thoughtful, it seemed that he had to go and see for himself, and called Li Hongjue, "Let's go."

  Li Hongjue didn't know, so, "What happened?"

   Can’t tell Li Hongjue that a corpse is missing, otherwise the explanation will be unclear, “I found a doubtful point, and I need to verify it.”

   "What doubt?" He said that it would be useful to find Chu Tang, and he had a clue so soon.

  Chu Tang walked out quickly, "I'll tell you when I'm sure."

  The two came to the river, Chu Tang stood by the river and observed for a while, then jumped into the river, let go of his spiritual sense, and began to explore in the river.

  Li Hongjue, "..."

   Several subordinates came over, "Master, what are you doing here?"

  Li Hongjue said worriedly, "You guys came just in time. Chu Tang went into the water. Go down and have a look. Something happened here, so don't be careless."

   "Okay, let's go right away." Several of his men jumped into the river "plop plop plop", dived into the water, and disappeared.

  Li Hongjue walked back and forth on the shore, wondering if he should also go to the water to have a look.

  Chu Tang swam a long way at the bottom of the river, but there were no corpses or bones underneath. It seemed that the missing person was probably still alive.

   There is no shortage of unique people in any world. Some people will enter a state of suspended animation when they drown, without a heartbeat. It is no different from being dead, but they may be revived when they return to the shore.

   He was afraid that he had just met such a person.

  After Chu Tang figured it out, he swam back and asked Li Hongjue, "How many people do you have?"

  Li Hongjue replied in a daze, "More than a thousand."

Chu Tang said solemnly, "It takes only one day to find someone along the river, or find someone who was rescued from the river. Otherwise, you won't be able to find them." General Chen came to find Tang Jinghong in person. The situation must be very serious. It will delay big things.

  Seeing that Chu Tang was really anxious, Li Hongjue didn't ask any more questions, and immediately arranged for his men to find someone.

   "Where are you going?" Li Hongjue caught up with Chu Tang who was walking downstream.

  Chu Tang said concisely, "Help find someone together."

  Li Hongjue didn't understand, "Why are you looking for that person?"

   Chu Tang said, "I'll tell you when I find it."
