Chapter 25: Trapped in the Barracks

Luo Feng's hand reached under Lu Que's nose, but fortunately there was a faint breath. Luo Feng was really scared out of a cold sweat by him.

Luo Feng knew that Lu Que must be sick. He picked up Lu Que and left. Gu Xiaodong hurriedly got up from the bed and followed. Mo Yu, who was washing his hands outside the door, dried his hands and followed Luo Feng and the others to the tavern.

"Boss! How far is the Fenzhou military camp from here? Luo Feng frowned and looked at the restaurant owner.

"After crossing the river, go upstream, and when you reach a fork in the road, turn left and walk more than two miles." The owner of the restaurant was stunned by Luo Feng's expression. He spoke fast.

Mo Yu settled the bill. The three men led their horses to the river. The water is much smaller than yesterday.

Mo Yu and Gu Xiaodong first sent Luo Feng, who was carrying Lu Que on his back, across the river, and then the two went back to lead the horse across the river.

Luo Feng tied Lu Que on the back of the black horse, and the black horse ran upstream alone. Luo Feng and the three of them got on the horse and tailed.

The old horse knows the way, this is not false at all. Luo Feng and the three of them followed the black horse to the outside of the barracks. The horse saw that the sergeant at the door actually began to neigh.

"Our general is back!" The soldiers at the gate of the camp hula surrounded the black horse. Luo Feng and the three of them got off their horses and walked towards the black horse.

"Who tied our general to his horse?" A sergeant goes to untie the ropes. The other soldiers were armed with swords and spears and angrily attacked the three of Luo Feng.

"We are friends with your generals. He was seriously ill and we sent him back. Luo Feng said calmly.

Someone has already entered the briefing. When the deputy battalion officer heard that Lu Que was back, he immediately brought someone out to greet him. He was puzzled when he saw Lu Que being carried through the door. A sergeant told him what Luo Feng had just said.

"Thank you, three! Inside please! The adjutant general said quietly.

"We have urgent matters. The person has been delivered, and we take our leave! Luo Feng arched his hand.

"Wait! You can't go now, you can't leave until our general wakes up!" "The deputy battalion officer's meaning is very clear. You've sent people back, but we'll have to figure out the situation before we're letting you go.

Luo Feng and the three of them didn't have to pay attention to it, and it was not difficult to get out with the skills of the three of them, but there was nothing improper about this deputy general's request. Luo Feng couldn't refuse, so he had to take Gu Xiaodong and Mo Yu into the barracks.

The three of them were placed in a clean room in the barracks. Three meals a day are delivered on time, but they can't move at will. To put it bluntly, the three were placed under house arrest.

Gu Xiaodong didn't understand what Luo Feng thought, let them work in the barracks, and there was nothing else to do except meditate and practice every day, and Gu Xiaodong was stuffy.

"You can't get out!" Gu Xiaodong was stopped again at the door.

"I'll go and see General Lu!" Gu Xiaodong was in a hurry.

"I'll go with you!" Luo Feng got up and walked over.

"The general has been in a coma for three days. I'm going to ask you if anyone has woken up? "The sergeant at the door was a warm-hearted man.

Luo Feng and Gu Xiaodong stood at the door and looked at the bright sun in the sky.

The sergeant came back quite quickly, and he told Luo Feng and Gu Xiaodong with a smile: "The general is invited!" ”

Luo Feng and Gu Xiaodong followed the sergeant to Lu Que's barracks, and his room was very cool.

Lu Que sat on the bed and smiled at Luo Feng and Gu Xiaodong who had just entered the door.

"If you don't do well, I'm going to be suffocated!" Gu Xiaodong sat on the stool next to the bed with a big grin.

"It's all right!" Luo Feng asked with concern.

"Out of the way!" Lu Que said with a smile.

"What's out of the way? Not out of danger yet? The soldier waiting for Lu Que muttered.

"You little ghost, let them prepare the food and drink!" Lu Que said as he moved his legs to the side of the bed and was about to put on his shoes and go to the ground.

"No! Lie down! Luo Feng had already heard from the soldier's mouth that Lu Que had just woken up, and his body had not recovered. Lu Que couldn't resist Luo Feng and sat on the bed again.

"I can't lie down either, but there's something I want to ask you two to check for me!" Lu Que sat up straight.

"Brother Lu, you're welcome! Please speak! Luo Feng had actually guessed what Lu Que wanted him to investigate.

"Don't hide it from the two of you! I went out this time to investigate the draft military rations. There are a total of five battalions in Fenzhou. Now the border is calm, and there is no fighting. Our reserve army is stationed here, and it costs a lot of food. However, the imperial court allocated us grain and grass on time for the sake of stability and tranquility at the border gates, but the actual cost of this grain and grass did not match the amount allocated. ”

"At first, the bookkeeper didn't care. Everyone agrees that this number cannot be so accurate. But after a long time, this deficit is huge. The person in charge of the account had to report it to the Fenzhou Metropolitan Protectorate. I was in charge of secret visits and investigations. The strength of the battalions and the number of horses are almost the same, and it should not be that we have a problem here. But I really can't think of anyone else who can embezzle this grain and grass, and how can he be greedy? Lu Que's eyebrows were brought together.

"You didn't find out and caused the disaster of killing, which shows that someone is a thief!" Luo Feng analyzed.

"But who is it?" Lu Que pressed his temple.

"You don't have a clue? How can we help you? "Gu Xiaodong has always been straightforward.

"Xiaodong!" Luo Feng glared at Gu Xiaodong. Gu Xiaodong got up and walked outside.

"I won't delay your business!" Lu Que knew that with the skills of Luo Feng and the others, they would not come here for no reason.

"Nope! Tell me the details. Luo Feng and Lu Que talked secretly for a long time, and they didn't stop until the meal was on the table.

Gu Xiaodong ate very well and drank to the fullest. Lu Que said that when his injury healed, he would definitely drink happily with everyone for three days! Gu Xiaodong happily high-fived Lu Que as an oath.

Mo Yu didn't understand, wasn't it just drinking? What else is needed for an oath. Gu Xiaodong said that Mo Yu is the head of a wooden fish.

Luo Feng said: "We have enjoyed all the wine and food, it's time to go down to business." ”

Gu Xiaodong didn't forget to take a chicken leg and gnaw it while walking, which attracted the attention of many sergeants along the way.

"This is the barracks! Pay attention to the image! Mo Yu was a little embarrassed.

"I'm not a sergeant, what are you afraid of?" Gu Xiaodong skimmed the leftover chicken bones out of the barracks fence. Luo Feng led Gu Xiaodong and Mo Yu to take the horses in the hands of the sergeant and walked out of the barracks and headed west.

"Where are we going?" Gu Xiaodong burped.

"Go to Fenzhou City." Luo Feng got on the horse. Gu Xiaodong climbed on the horse's back and lay on it without getting up, letting the horse run behind Luo Feng and Mo Yu's horses. Dust rose behind them, obscuring their figures.

This will be another battle of life and death. But Luo Feng knew that there were some things he had to do. No matter where he is, he will take care of everything that is harmful to the interests of the country! This is called easy to change, and the nature is difficult to change!
