But no!

Tang Feng didn't make a move, which meant that he was not in the mansion at all.

Although for Chen Ze, this was just a second confirmation.

Even though he seemed to put himself in danger in order to confirm this, it was not.

In the eyes of Meng Yang and others, it is really a very dangerous thing for Chen Ze to wander aimlessly, and he may not have time to protect himself.

But only Chen Ze knew that he was actually safe.

Even though there is only one Meng Yang beside him, in fact, in the dark, the Qingyang Arrow God has been following.

Chen Ze didn't give him any death orders, and Tang Tianxing would naturally judge by his willpower.

He wants to protect Chen Ze, so he will naturally follow where Chen Ze goes.

And with Tang Tianxing protecting him in secret, Chen Ze believed that even if Tang Feng made a sudden move, Tang Tianxing would have enough ability to instantly react and save him.

No matter how strong Tang Feng is, is it stronger than Tang Tianxing?

If it is really strong, this poor orphan who has been abandoned will be afraid that he will get into trouble soon and ask his father for everything he had done.

Tang Feng didn't do this, which meant that he himself knew very well that although his martial arts were not weak, he was still a little worse than Tang Tianxing.

Therefore, Chen Ze's seemingly reckless behavior is actually not as dangerous as others seem to be, at best it can only be regarded as thrilling.

As he returned to his residence, there was no thrill at all.

So what followed was more and more dazed doubts.

Is this secret enemy a fool?

Did not even do the most basic exploration work?

Either he is a fool, or he is self-reliant on his strength, and he can deal with any actions of Mr. Hua with ease.

But if he really has so much energy, why bother to arrange for someone to enter the city lord's mansion to inquire about the news?

Can't it be done by direct soldiers to cover the water and soil?

So in summary, the other party is still a fool.

No, maybe... there is another explanation!

Chen Ze's eyes flickered, and another explanation was the origin of the abhorrent sound when he entered the door.

This explanation was the closest judgment he could make after all the circumstances were combined, but... Chen Ze didn't want to believe that this judgment was true.

In fact, as early as the day after he discovered that something was wrong, this thought came to mind from time to time, and was forced back by him abruptly.

But after so long, the truth seemed to be developing more and more in the direction he didn't want to believe.

Now, if he still doesn't want to face this conjecture in his heart, then he can only describe it as self-deception.

And the truth is...

With his fists tight and loose, loose and tight, Chen Ze was struggling at the moment.

On the one hand, his reason told him that this should be the case, and on the other hand, from a perceptual point of view, he really didn't want to believe that this matter would be true.

What's the matter, maybe, you have to go there again by yourself!

As soon as he thought of this, Chen Ze ignored Meng Yang's puzzled look, and only said softly: "Go, accompany me out again."

With that, he opened the door and walked out again.

Meng Yang didn't care about doubts any more and hurried to catch up. Although others were rough, the priorities were still clear. For him, protecting Chen Ze's safety is always the first place.

And Meng Yang also believed that Chen Ze would definitely give him a satisfactory answer when the truth came out.

The two left the courtyard again, this time Chen Ze's actions were already full of purpose, and he no longer wandered to the end like before.

But the direction he was traveling made Meng Yang's expression a little uncomfortable.

Chen Ze went to Hua Lao's residence not far away, and it was also the largest house in the entire city lord's mansion.

As three days ago, the fat shopkeeper was still at the door.

At the moment when the City Lord's Mansion was emptied, Hua Lao did not reserve more staff for himself, only the fat shopkeeper and Mr. Jing.

Chen Ze didn't know the strength of the fat shopkeeper until now, but this man himself is not high in rank, and he is not a person with super strength like Tang Tianxing.

As for Mr. Jing...

Judging from the initial contact in West Cloud City, Mr. Jing was a adviser at all, and he did not have any tyrannical strength.

At first, Hua Lao chose to keep these two people only because of loyalty reasons, but Chen Ze still had some doubts about this at the time.

"Brother Chen?"

There was no one in the house, and the fat shopkeeper sat in front of the courtyard for three days. When he was bored, he suddenly saw Chen Ze and Meng Yang walking, and his expressions were suddenly shocked.

"General Xu, can Mr. Hua be in the courtyard?"

At this moment, Chen Ze had no intention of chatting with him, walked closer, and directly expressed his intention.

On the contrary, it was Meng Yang.

Originally, he didn't want to see Hua Lao again anyhow, and even every time he came to Hua Lao, he would deliberately stay away.

But this time, knowing that it was a matter of great importance, Meng Yang frowned while still following Chen Ze every step of the way.

"Old Hua?"

The fat shopkeeper glanced back, nodded and said: "It is naturally there, but I don't know..."

As he said, he laughed bitterly, but Meng Yang let out a cold snort in exchange for the half-sentence he didn't finish.

Of the three people present, everyone understood what the half-sentence that was not finished meant.

Chen Ze nodded slightly, not surprised.

"Then trouble General Xu to give an announcement?"

He also glanced in, and looked in from the courtyard door that was not closed. The inside was empty. Mr. Hua probably didn't know where he was hiding at the moment~lightnovelpub.net~ is...

Holding his wine jar.

With a sigh in his heart, Chen Ze didn't know what kind of psychology he was in at the moment. He just waited quietly outside the door, watching the fat shopkeeper turn around and report.

"Brother, you come to the old guy at this time, can he talk to you normally?"

Behind him, Meng Yang looked up at the sky. It was almost evening. Although he had not contacted Hua Lao in recent years, he only knew what he had seen and heard in the city lord’s mansion during this time. Hua Lao, who has been drinking for a day, is probably too drunk now.

"sure."

However, Chen Ze nodded firmly, turned around and looked at Meng Yang seriously, and solemnly said: "Brother Meng, it is time to let go of what happened back then. In fact, you know very well in your heart that the reason why Mr. Hua was so so back then He did... he also wanted to protect you."

"It's better to let you squat in the Bo'an Barracks than to be tied out as cannon fodder by some bad generals, right?"

Chen Ze smiled bitterly and patted Meng Yang's shoulder lightly.
