Originally, the emperor wanted to kill Jiang Chen once and for all.
He couldn't feel at ease as long as Jiang Chen was alive, even if Jiang Chen was dead.
Although Jiang Chen had resigned before, Jiang Chen still had the punishment sword in his hand and he couldn't touch it. Once Jiang Chen was touched, it would be very troublesome to track him down.
Now Jiang Chen was demoted to a civilian and handed over the torture sword.
No one cares about his life or death.
As long as it's done beautifully, it'll be fine.
Now that he knew what Jiang Chen was looking for, he changed his mind again.
The thing Jiang Chen was looking for must be extraordinary, and he planned to snatch it away before taking action.
After hanging up the phone, he was still worried and called again.
"Is the person you are looking for reliable?"
A hoarse voice came from the phone, "Don't worry, boss, it's absolutely reliable. This is the man who worked as a mercenary abroad with me back then. I am a close friend of life and death. Now I have paid a high price, even if I let him assassinate the King of Great Xia." , whenever there is a chance, he will take action."
The Emperor thought for a while and said: "This kid Jiang Chen is extraordinary. Even if he is dead, I still don't worry. Zhui Feng is a good example. Go to the middle of the river in person, keep an eye on Jiang Chen and look for him." Grab the stuff."
There was a slight hesitation on the other side of the phone.
"Boss, there are many people accompanying us this time, including Tang Chuchu, Xu Qing, Huo Dong, and many Xiaoyao troops."
"Destroy them all, don't leave any clues."
"clear."
The emperor hung up the phone, casually threw the phone on the table, then leaned on the sofa, touched his face with both hands, and murmured: "Jiang Chen, you really don't make people worry, why are you looking for me like this even if you are useless?" eventful."
In the middle of the river, Baolong Mountain.
The bank of the river canal.
Not long after Jiang Chen had dinner, he became hungry again. After eating something again, he felt sleepy and went to rest in the tent.
Xu Qing and Tang Chuchu gathered in front of the fire.
"Zizzizi!"
The flames burned very brightly, sparks rising up.
Xu Qing said: "It's getting late, you should go to bed first."
Tang Chuchu glanced at her and asked, "What about you?"
Xu Qing shook her head slightly and said: "I'm not sleepy yet, and Brother Jiang's sleep is very light and he wakes up easily. Every time he wakes up, he has to eat. His condition has started to worsen today, and there might be some accident. I’ll guard it first.”
Xu Qing's words made Tang Chuchu feel ashamed.
She was Jiang Chen's wife, but she didn't expect this.
She felt that she was a failure and a failed wife. No wonder Jiang Chen would leave her. It turned out that she really broke Jiang Chen's heart.
"Well, then I'll go take a nap first, and you'll be there in the middle of the night. Call me when you're sleepy."
Tang Chuchu was really sleepy. She yawned, walked towards her tent and got into the tent.
Xu Qing continued to guard and at the same time paid close attention to Jiang Chen's condition.
Before midnight, Jiang Chen woke up from hunger.
He turned over weakly and got up.
As soon as she stood up, Xu Qing walked in.
"woke up?"
Jiang Chen picked up the cell phone on the side and looked at it. He found that it was already 12 o'clock in the middle of the night. He couldn't help being stunned and asked, "Are you still awake?"
Xu Qing smiled and said, "Can't sleep? Are you hungry?"
Jiang Chen nodded slightly.
"Wait a moment, I'll heat up the food right away."
Xu Qing walked out.
When they came out this time, they were fully prepared, including a small generator and an induction cooker.
Xu Qing went to heat up the food.
She wanted to feed Jiang Chen.
But Jiang Chen took it and started eating it himself.
After eating, he yawned and said, "It's so late, you should go to bed."
"Um."
Xu Qing nodded slightly, turned and walked out of the tent.
Jiang Chen lay down again.
However, he couldn't sleep.
At this moment, all he could think about was Xu Qing. He was ashamed of this girl, but he couldn't give her too many promises.
"Why."
He sighed helplessly and stopped thinking about these complicated things.
He closed his eyes and soon fell asleep.
Tonight, he woke up several times.
Once I woke up from pain, once from hunger, and once from cold.
Now, he felt colder and colder, as if he was in an ice cellar.
Xu Qing, on the other hand, didn't sleep all night and kept guard outside.
Tang Chuchu slept peacefully.
It was already the next morning when she woke up.
She turned over and got up, picked up the mobile phone beside her and looked at it. She found that it was already 8 o'clock. She slapped herself on the forehead and cursed regretfully: "Tang Chuchu, you can really sleep."
She rolled over and got up, tidied her messy hair, and then walked out.
Outside, the flames were still burning.
Jiang Chen was sitting in a wheelchair, while Xu Qing stood behind him, pressing his head.
Tang Chuchu came over and called: "Xu Qing."
Xu Qing turned to look at her and made a silent gesture.
Tang Chuchu came over and found Jiang Chen asleep on the chair.
Seeing Xu Qing's tired face, Tang Chuchu asked in a low voice: "You, you haven't slept all night?"
"Why."
Xu Qing sighed softly and said: "Brother Jiang got sick again last night. He woke up in pain and also woke up from the cold. Now I feel that his skin is very cold, as if he touched ice cubes."
Tang Chuchu couldn't help but touch Jiang Chen's face.
It was indeed cold.
She looked at Xu Qing and said, "Thank you for your hard work. Now I'm watching. You go and take a nap."
Xu Qing was really sleepy, she nodded: "Well, call me if you need anything."
"go Go."
Tang Chuchu gave up slightly.
Xu Qing turned around and went to rest in the tent.
"Ayawn..."
Jiang Chen yawned, woke up, looked at Huo Dong beside him, and asked: "General Huo, how are you? Is the person who went into the water back?"
Huo Dong said in time: "Well, someone has returned and discovered caves again in the downstream area, but there are too many caves, and we are now looking for them one by one."
"oh."
Jiang Chen said softly.
"Honey, drink some warm water."
Tang Chuchu came over with warm water, opened the bottle cap, and handed it to Jiang Chen's mouth.
"I'll do it myself."
Jiang Chen took the water glass, held it in his hand, and took a sip.
After taking a sip of warm water, my whole body felt much better.
He handed the cup to Tang Chuchu casually.
Afterwards, he stared at the water in a daze.
He hoped that the soldiers who went into the water to investigate would bring him good news.
Time passed by minute by minute.
A few hours passed in the blink of an eye, and it was noon.
Jiang Chen is eating.
A figure emerged from the water.
As soon as the man surfaced, he took off the oxygen mask on his head and shouted: "Found it, found it."
Hearing this, Jiang Chen put down the bowls and chopsticks in his hands and stood up with an excited look on his face.
The soldier soon swam ashore.
He came over and shouted: "Report, I found it. I found the stone carving that Brother Jiang mentioned. The carving is a dragon head, more than ten meters high."
"Finally found it."
With a look of relief on Jiang Chen's face, he asked, "Did you find anything else nearby?"
"No."
"Oh, I want to go down and take a look myself. Get me a wetsuit."
"This won't work."
Tang Chuchu pulled Jiang Chen in time and persuaded him: "Honey, you can't go. You are like this. It's difficult to even walk. If you go into the water, you will be washed away by the river in minutes."
"I must go."
Jiang Chen had determination on his face.
He understood the situation in the cave, and he would only feel relieved if he went to find it himself.
"But, how are you going to go like this?" Tang Chuchu was worried.
"fine."
Jiang Chen gave up slightly.
Huo Dong said in time: "The river is quite deep. Let's use my connections to drive a small submarine down from the upstream."
"This is best." Jiang Chen nodded.
"I'll get ready right now."
Huo Dong walked aside, took out his phone and made a call.
