Datang: From exiled prince to eternal tyrant

Chapter 307 Shocking News

In less than half a day, the people Zhao Hu sent came back to report.

"Report to the general that the boat that went out before has been found."

"How is it? Is Xiangling okay?"

After Zhao Hu heard the news, he immediately asked about Xiangling's situation. Now he was worried about what happened to Xiangling.

The person who came to sue was a little embarrassed when he heard Zhao Hu ask this question. To be honest, he didn't know how to tell the other party.

Zhao Hu is still very clear about these people under him, so he knew that something must have happened as soon as he heard it.

"It's okay, just tell the truth."

He was already mentally prepared.

As soon as the person who came to sue heard what Zhao Hu said, he obediently told the other party.

"When we found that boat, everyone on board was already dead, only Xiao Wu was left..."

"What did you say?!"

Zhao Hu thought it was because they met Haikou again, even if there was any loss, it would not be a big deal to him, but he didn't expect it to be like this.

The most important thing is Xiangling. If Xiangling died too, he would not know how to explain to Li Ke.

"Xiang Ling died too?"

"That's not true. We didn't see his body. We don't know if it fell into the sea or was taken somewhere."

The person who came to complain immediately explained it. After Zhao Hu heard this, he was instantly relieved. For him, as long as Xiangling is fine, at least Li Ke can make sense of it. As for the others, he is also now. There is no way.

"Go and count the bodies of the dead brothers, and then give some compensation to the family."

Zhao Hu can only do so much.

"Yes!"

Just as the other party was about to leave, Zhao Hu remembered something, so he immediately stopped him.

"What else is there, General?"

"You call that little five over."

As the only survivor, Zhao Hu naturally wanted to ask.

"He was unconscious when we found him, and he is still unconscious. I will tell him to come when he wakes up."

"Well, you go down first."

After the other party left, Zhao Hu became a little flustered. Now that Xiangling's whereabouts were unknown, he didn't know what to tell Li Ke.

Fortunately, Li Ke has just been here once, it is impossible to come here now, he still has time to deal with it.

About two hours later, Xiao Wu finally woke up. After waking up, he found that he had returned, and he was relieved.

He originally wanted to drive back by boat, but encountered a strong wind on the way, and the wind and waves were too strong. He managed to escape the wind and waves, and finally lost consciousness from exhaustion.

"You finally woke up!"

Because Zhao Hu wanted to find Xiao Wu, someone was watching by Xiao Wu's bed all the time, and when he woke up, let him go there immediately.

"The boat thing..."

Xiao Wu didn't know what to say to them.

"Don't talk about this, the general asked you to go there."

Xiao Wu nodded, he knew that Zhao Hu would definitely call him over, because he would ask about Xiangling.

He had already figured out what to say to them when he was in bed.

Just when Zhao Hu was very anxious, Xiao Wu pushed open the door of Zhao Hu's room.

"General."

"You're awake!"

When Zhao Hu saw that it was Xiao Wu who came in, he immediately walked to him excitedly.

"What happened on the boat? What happened to Xiangling? Was it taken away by someone or fell into the sea?"

He is more concerned about Xiangling's whereabouts now, as long as he finds out about Xiangling's whereabouts, he will have a solution.

"We met Haikou. The pirates killed everyone and took Xiangling away. At that time, Xiangling and I were hiding in the cabin. After they found Xiangling, they took him away and didn't care about me. That's why I live."

Xiao Wu decided that it would be better to tell the truth, because they had been getting along day and night, and Zhao Hu knew them very well, so he could tell at a glance whether they were lying or not.

And it's not good for him to lie to the other party. They are brothers, so they will believe him.

Zhao Hu didn't have any doubts about what Xiao Wu said, and fortunately he was still alive. If he died too, no one would know what happened on the boat.

As for why, the other party wants to save his life, this question is not important for the time being, anyway, it must not be Xiao Wu, the key is to kill them, Zhao Hu is also very clear who Xiao Wu is.

"I see. Which group of pirates are they? Do you remember what they were dressed like?"

Knowing Xiangling's whereabouts, Zhao Hu breathed a sigh of relief, the next thing to do is to find him back, the problem is not particularly big.

I'm afraid that the other party has fallen into the sea and died, and there will be no room for recovery.

"I'm not too sure about this... They are wearing black clothes. I've never seen them before. Maybe they are new pirates?"

Xiao Wu thought about it carefully, and could only tell these details. He was not very familiar with those pirates at first, and most of the time it was other people who dealt with the pirates.

Zhao Hu felt a headache when he heard this, what should he do?
Seeing Zhao Hu's sad face, Xiao Wu had nothing to do.

"I'm sorry General, I'm too useless, otherwise I would have been able to keep Xiangling."

In fact, he was a little bit close at the time. If Xiangling was willing to run away with him, I am afraid that the two of them could come back smoothly. It is a pity that Xiangling did not agree with his point of view at that time, so the two of them lost some time.

Zhao Hu shook his head. He felt that he couldn't blame Xiao Wu for everything, because it was good that Xiao Wu was alive.

"This matter has nothing to do with you, so don't blame yourself. Let me first think about how to tell His Highness the King of Shu about this matter."

Zhao Hu sighed while saying this.

Around evening, Li Ke finally returned to his place of residence, and saw Zhao Hu pacing up and down at the door of his room as soon as he came back.

"Why, what's the matter with General Zhao?"

Li Ke asked.

Zhao Hu had been thinking about this place for a long time, and finally felt that there was still something to say, so he plucked up his courage.

"It's like this. Our ship has come back, but the ship was attacked by pirates. They killed everyone on board and captured Miss Xiangling. Only one person survived. Come back and take the ship away." Something told me."

After hearing this, Li Ke's face was a little ugly. He didn't expect that such a thing would happen when he let Xiangling go out fishing with them.

If he knew it would be so dangerous, he would never let Xiangling pass.

Now he can't blame them for anything, after all, he allowed this matter.

He should have thought about fishing in the past, whether there would be any danger, and since he hadn't thought about it, then this matter was his responsibility.
