Heroes of Troubled Times: Chronicles of the Five Dynasties and Ten Kingdoms

Be careful everyone! The mechanism is starting to activate! Huang Biao reminded.

The soldiers immediately prepared for battle and looked around cautiously, because no one knew what accidents would happen after the mechanism was activated.

After a while, the walls of the temple slowly moved outward, revealing a hidden passage.

I saw it, Baoyu should be inside! Everyone, follow me in! Zhu Wen took the lead and stepped into the passage.

The soldiers followed excitedly, filled with anticipation and nervousness.

They entered the passage, and an ancient aura hit their faces. They know that Baoyu's rescue is getting closer and closer.

Zhu Dali couldn't help but joked in his heart: Haha, it seems that our expedition was really exhausting and turned into a treasure hunting adventure game. Be careful everyone, we will get the gem soon!

Zhu Wen, Zhu Dali, Huang Biao and the soldiers paid attention to their surroundings as they walked, hoping to find the specific location of Baoyu.

This passage is really eerie. I hope there won’t be any traps waiting for us. Huang Biao whispered.

Don't worry, we always have Lady Luck on our side, and traps can't be our opponents. Zhu Dali responded in an exciting tone.

The wounded soldiers silently hinted that they should stay calm. They were at a critical moment and any mistake could lead to failure.

Finally, they came to a huge basement. In the center of the basement, there is a seemingly ancient and gorgeous stone platform, with an exquisite box placed on it, which should be the place where the jade is contained.

We finally found it! Zhu Wen said excitedly.

The soldiers breathed a sigh of relief. They followed Zhu Wen and gathered around the stone platform, staring at the box where Baoyu was with mixed emotions.

Huang Biao had a doubt in his heart. The box looked like it had been opened. Was there no jade in it?

I want to see if Baoyu is still there. Huang Biao suggested.

Zhu Dali nodded. They needed to confirm Baoyu's whereabouts before they could make further action plans.

Huang Biao opened the box carefully. In an instant, a dazzling light burst out, and the gem came into everyone's sight.

Baoyu is still there! We succeeded! Zhu Wen shouted excitedly.

The soldiers cheered and were ecstatic. They finally found Baoyu and took an important step towards uncovering the conspiracy.

Huang Biao smiled and said to Zhu Dali: It seems that our treasure adventure game was really successful this time. Our hard work was not in vain!

Zhu Dali joked: Yes, this time our expedition team can be regarded as veritable archaeologists and puzzle interpretation experts!

Everyone patted each other on the shoulders, full of joy and sense of accomplishment. However, there are several words on the gem: Li Keyong.

Zhu Wen's eyes widened and he continued to carefully observe the words engraved on the jade. His doubts made a chill rise in his heart.

Li Keyong? What does it mean? Could this gem be related to him? Zhu Wen murmured in confusion.

The soldiers also looked at Baoyu, and they couldn't help but have endless speculation and fear in their hearts.

The wounded soldier suddenly disappeared...and now the three characters Li Keyong appeared on the jade. What happened behind all this? Zhu Dali exclaimed inwardly.

Huang Biao frowned and carefully explored the surrounding environment. The atmosphere became tense at this point, and they realized that the situation was more complicated than they expected.

Zhu Wen clenched his fists and calmly thought about his next action.

We cannot stop, as the risks we face may far exceed our imagination. We must act quickly to bring Baoyu back to the mansion safely, and at the same time investigate the truth behind the mysterious death of the wounded soldier. Time waits not for us! Zhu Wen said decisively.

The soldiers nodded solemnly, their eyes revealing their firm response to the dangerous situation.

They began to leave the basement quickly, moving forward on high alert.

But throughout the process, Zhu Wen was still full of uneasiness, and he began to think about the conspiracy behind all this and the true purpose of the enemy.

Soon after, when they returned to the mansion, a depressing atmosphere enveloped the entire space. Zhu Wen immediately felt something was wrong, and he went straight to the place where the wounded soldiers lived.

But when he opened the door, a heartbreaking scene unfolded in front of him. The wounded soldier fell to the ground, his eyes staring blankly at the ceiling, apparently murdered.

Zhu Wen was heartbroken and shocked. He couldn't imagine that a wounded soldier would die in such a way, and who was the mastermind behind this.

Wounded soldier...you actually...Zhu Wen's voice was filled with endless grief and anger.

He vowed to avenge the wounded soldiers, restore the truth, and bring the murderers to justice.

The soldiers looked around silently. They were deeply disturbed. The enemy seemed to be much stronger than they imagined.

Zhu Wen clenched his fists angrily, his heart filled with firm determination.

The murderer dared to commit murder in my mansion and hurt innocent people. I will never let him go! Zhu Wen said through gritted teeth.

The soldiers stood silently, their eyes shining with hatred and ambition. They know that this is a dangerous and serious battle, but they firmly believe that justice will defeat evil.

We must investigate the truth behind the death of the wounded soldier as soon as possible, find his murderer, and restore the entire conspiracy. Huang Biao said firmly.

Zhu Dali nodded silently, praying in his heart that the souls of the wounded soldiers could be comforted.

They began to brainstorm their next steps. However, they also feel that the pressure is increasing, the enemy is hidden too deeply, and danger may come at any time.

Zhu Wen looked at the bodies of the wounded soldiers and felt a heart-wrenching sadness in his heart.

Wounded soldier, you are a truly heroic warrior who dedicated your life to the country and the people. I swear, I will seek justice for you and make the murderer pay the price. Zhu Wen silently swore to the wounded soldiers.

Late at night, they gathered together again and launched their reasoning about the cause of death of the wounded soldiers.

Did anyone enter or leave the mansion when the wounded soldier was killed? Zhu Dali asked.

The soldiers exchanged glances with each other, and Huang Biao replied: No one seemed to have left or entered the mansion before the wounded soldiers were discovered. This makes it difficult to explain how the killer fled the scene.

Zhu Wen thought for a moment and frowned.

This can only mean that the murderer is proficient in the art of stealth and has extremely high detection and killing skills. We need to closely observe the people around us to find possible clues and identify the suspect. Zhu Wen analyzed calmly.

The soldiers nodded silently, understanding that their task had become more difficult, but they held on to hope and believed that they could find the truth and seek justice for the wounded soldiers.

They decided to launch an investigation based on the existing evidence, contacting people who had been in contact with the wounded soldier to learn more about his past, relationships and any suspicious behavior.
