Chapter 375 Artifact
"Brother Li, do you know what the King of Han is doing now?" Fang Yue asked.
Li Yun pondered for a moment and said, "As far as I know, the King of Han has been having frequent secret talks with important officials in the court recently, and seems to be planning some big move.
Moreover, I also heard that he was secretly colluding with some underworld forces, and seemed to want to search for the secret national treasure of the Wei royal family!
I never thought that the Wei royal family would lose the national treasure. It is really unbelievable."
"National treasure? What is this?" Fang Yue asked knowingly.
Although he had this national treasure in his hands, he did not know what its function was.
And the man in front of him seemed to know something.
When Li Yun heard Fang Yue's question, a hint of surprise flashed in his eyes, but he quickly regained his composure and explained:
“The national treasure is a treasure passed down from generation to generation by the Wei royal family. It is said to have mysterious powers that can protect the country from harm and bring good weather.
However, I am not very clear about its specific style and function.
I just heard that this artifact is very important. After it was lost, the royal family and the King of Han were eager to find it back. "
Fang Yue's heart was moved, but he remained calm on the surface and continued, "So that's how it is, this national treasure is so important.
However, since even the Wei royal family has lost this treasure, how can we ordinary people find it?"
Li Yun sighed and said, "Yes, the loss of the national treasure is undoubtedly a huge blow to the Wei royal family. However, it is said that the King of Han has obtained some clues and is searching secretly."
After hearing this, Fang Yue raised his eyebrows slightly and thought secretly in his heart.
He held the national treasure, but he was not clear about its specific function and importance. Li Yun's words made him realize that this treasure might be more valuable than he thought.
At the same time, he also developed a keen interest in the movements of the King of Han, wondering what clues this ambitious prince had and what conspiracy he was planning.
"Brother Li, maybe we can have a deeper chat about the national treasure and the movements of the King of Han." Fang Yue suggested, "I am quite interested in this. I wonder if Brother Li is willing to share more information?"
Li Yun glanced at Fang Yue, seemingly weighing something.
After a moment, he nodded and said, "Okay, since Brother Fang is so interested in this, I will tell you everything I know. However, this information is hearsay and may not be completely accurate. Brother Fang needs to make his own judgment."
Then, Li Yun described in detail what he knew about the legend of the national treasure and the various unusual behaviors of the King of Han in recent times.
He mentioned that the King of Han seemed to be looking for an expert who could decipher the secret of the artifact, and was also secretly recruiting strange people in the world, most likely to retrieve the artifact and uncover the secret behind it.
Fang Yue listened with great interest, but his heart was filled with turmoil.
He realized that the national treasure in his hand might become the focus of competition among everyone.
At the same time, he also gained a deeper understanding of the King of Han's ambitions and plans.
"Thank you, Brother Li, for being frank."
Fang Yue said gratefully, "This information is extremely important to me. If you need it in the future, I will definitely help you."
Li Yun smiled and waved his hand, saying, "Brother Fang, you are too polite. We are both from the same world, and we should support each other. However, the matter of this national treasure involves a lot of people, so Brother Fang needs to be careful."
The two chatted for a while before Fang Yue said goodbye and left.
He secretly rejoiced in his heart that this conversation with Li Yun had brought him great benefits. Not only did he learn more about the national treasure, but he also had a clearer understanding of the King of Han's movements.
After Fang Yue left, he couldn't help but start thinking about his next move.
He knew very well that the national treasure in his hand might lead to countless disputes and struggles, so he had to handle this matter more carefully.
At the same time, he was also worried about the King of Han's ambitions and plans.
If the King of Han is really looking for an expert who can decipher the secrets of the artifact, then he will most likely come to me.
After all, Fang Yue also has a certain reputation in the martial arts world, and he has also studied some ancient secrets and legends.
"It seems that I need to learn more about this national treasure."
Fang Yue thought to himself, "Only in this way can I better protect it and deal with possible crises."
Therefore, Fang Yue decided to start studying this national treasure. He found a secluded place, took out the artifact, and observed it carefully.
Fang Yue held the national treasure, a talisman. It looked gray, as if it was very old and had experienced a lot of wind and frost.
He looked at the talisman carefully, trying to find some clues from it.
There are some ancient runes engraved on the talisman. These runes may be just some meaningless patterns to ordinary people, but to Fang Yue who has studied ancient secrets and legends, they may contain deep meanings.
He gently stroked the talisman with his hand, feeling the uneven runes on it, his heart filled with doubts and curiosity.
What secrets does this talisman hide? How can it bring peace and prosperity to the country?
Fang Yue knew that it was not an easy task to solve these mysteries.
He needs to study these runes in depth, and may even need to find some relevant ancient books or experts to help interpret them.
At the same time, he also realized that this talisman might be the key to a game between him and the King of Han.
If he could unravel the secret of the talisman first, he would be able to gain the upper hand in the contest with the King of Han.
So, Fang Yue decided to take the talisman back to his residence and begin in-depth research.
~~~~~~~~
Half a month passed in the blink of an eye.
Having gained nothing, Fang Yue prepared to leave this small town and go to the Sitianjian in Yujing City to inquire about relevant information.
He was just about to leave the town when he suddenly sensed an unusual atmosphere.
In the shadows of the street corner, someone seemed to be secretly watching him. His heart tightened, knowing that his whereabouts might have been exposed.
Sure enough, when he reached the city gate, a group of people in black blocked his way.
Their eyes were cold and they exuded a murderous aura.
"Fang Yue, the national treasure in your hand is something that we at the Blood Dragon Platform are determined to obtain."
The leader of the men in black said coldly: "If you know what's good for you, hand over the artifact, or don't blame us for being rude!"
"Blood Dragon Platform? Who are you?"
Fang Yue frowned slightly. Blood Dragon Platform, this assassination organization directly under the Wei royal family that once followed King Wucheng in the rebellion.
The number of high-ranking officials of the Blood Dragon Platform who had caused trouble for him and died at his hands was too numerous to count with one hand.
This force should have been almost completely destroyed.
I didn't expect that there are still people who dare to cause trouble now!
"It doesn't matter who we are. What matters is the national treasure in your hand." The leader of the men in black said coldly, "Hand over the treasure, and you can leave safely."
Fang Yue sneered: "Humph, the people from the Blood Dragon Platform are really lingering around. But do you think I will hand over the artifact so easily?"
“If you don’t hand over the artifact, you will die!” A trace of murderous intent flashed in the eyes of the leader of the men in black. He waved his hand and the other men in black immediately surrounded him.
Fang Yue moved his body and easily dodged the attack of the men in black. At the same time, he drew his sword and fought fiercely with them. For a moment, the gate of the city was filled with the flash of swords and the shadow of qi.
After several rounds, Fang Yue had already figured out the strength of these men in black and had a plan in mind.
He dodged the knife with a flash, and instantly stabbed the leader of the men in black in the chest with his sword.
The leader was shocked and quickly stepped back to avoid it, but it was too late.
Fang Yue's sword left a deep wound on his chest, and blood flowed out.
“Ah!” The leader screamed and stared at Fang Yue with wide eyes, “You… you are so powerful!”
"Humph, the people of Blood Dragon Terrace are nothing special." Fang Yue said coldly, "Go back and tell your master that if he wants the artifact, let him come and get it in person!"
After saying that, Fang Yue disappeared in a flash at the city gate.
The men in black looked at each other. The leader covered his chest and said through gritted teeth: "Chase! We must take back the artifact!"
However, they had no idea that Fang Yue had already gone far away, leaving behind only a gradually disappearing figure.
After leaving the small town, Fang Yue headed north to Yujing City.
He knew in his heart that the people of Blood Dragon Terrace would not give up, but he was not afraid. He just took this opportunity to completely wipe out this force.
Fang Yue rushed all the way, while at the same time thinking about how to deal with the pursuit of the Blood Dragon Platform.
He understood that this confrontation with the Blood Dragon Platform was just the beginning, and more challenges would be waiting for him.
A few days later, Fang Yue arrived at the prosperous Yujing City.
He did not go directly to the Sitianjian, but chose to stay in a hidden inn in the city.
Yujing City is the largest city in the southern part of the Wei Dynasty and is well-informed. Fang Yue plans to collect more information about the national treasure here, while keeping an eye on the movements of the Blood Dragon Platform.
Yujing City is prosperous and bustling, and the streets and alleys are filled with all kinds of people, which also provides excellent cover for Fang Yue.
He shuttled between markets, teahouses and restaurants, listening to people's conversations and catching up on news related to the national artifact and the King of Han.
At the same time, he did not forget to pay attention to the movements of the Blood Dragon Platform.
Although this organization had suffered heavy losses, their ambitions and cruel methods still kept Fang Yue on high alert.
~~~~~~
Fang Yue gradually integrated into the pace of life in this bustling city.
By talking to people and observing the various aspects of life in the market, he continued to collect information about the national artifact and the King of Han.
One day, he overheard a group of people in a teahouse talking about the latest developments of the King of Han.
"I heard that the King of Han has recently recruited a group of martial arts masters, apparently to look for something important." A middle-aged man said mysteriously.
Fang Yue's heart moved. Wasn't this the clue he was looking for? He moved closer, trying to hear more information.
"I've heard that too. It seems like they're looking for some kind of national treasure." Another person chimed in, "I heard that this treasure has mysterious powers that can protect the country. The King of Han is looking for it so eagerly. He must be trying to use it to consolidate his position."
Fang Yue nodded secretly in his heart. This information was basically consistent with what he had learned before.
It seems that the King of Han's pursuit of the national treasure has attracted the attention of many people.
One day, Fang Yue came to an old house in Yujing City.
Although this house is old, it has a rich collection of books and is said to contain some rare ancient books and documents.
Fang Yue hoped to find more clues about the national treasure here, so he sneaked into the house quietly under the cover of night.
However, just as he was flipping through the book, he suddenly felt a sense of solemnity.
He immediately raised his head alertly, only to see that a group of men in black had surrounded him.
Their eyes were cold and they exuded a strong murderous intent.
"Fang Yue, you finally showed up."
The leading man in black said coldly, "Don't even think about escaping this time!"
Fang Yue glanced around, secretly calculating the possibility of breaking out. He knew that the people from the Blood Dragon Platform were clearly well prepared, and it would not be easy to escape easily.
But he did not panic because of this. He just stared calmly at the leading man in black, trying to find a breakthrough.
"Hand over the national treasure and we can give you a quick death." The man in black threatened.
Fang Yue just sneered and the sword in his hand was quietly unsheathed.
He knew that negotiating with these men in black was like talking to a cow, and only fighting could solve the problem at hand.
For a moment, the old house was filled with sword energy and flashes of knives.
Fang Yue was agile and had sharp swordsmanship. Every time he swung his sword, he could force back several men in black.
However, the people of Blood Dragon Terrace were no ordinary people. They cooperated well with each other and attacked fiercely, for a while putting Fang Yue in a tough battle.
But Fang Yue was not discouraged by this. He knew in his heart that the key to this battle was whether he could find the opponent's weakness.
While fending off the attacks of the men in black, he carefully observed their movements and habits.
Finally, after dozens of rounds of fierce fighting, he found an opportunity and stabbed the leading man in black in the chest with a sword.
The leading man in black was horrified and hurriedly retreated to avoid it, but it was too late.
Fang Yue's sword cut a long gash on his chest, and blood gushed out immediately.
The leading man in black screamed and fell heavily to the ground.
The other men in black were shocked when they saw this and retreated.
They knew that the operation had failed and that continuing to fight would be futile.
However, Fang Yue did not give them a chance to escape. He flashed and quickly approached the other men in black. The long sword in his hand shuttled like a dragon, and every sword strike was precise and deadly.
Although the men in black fought hard, they fell one by one under Fang Yue's sharp swordsmanship and were eventually all killed.
The old house was filled with the smell of blood, and the ground was littered with the corpses of men in black.
Fang Yue was panting, looking at the corpses all over the ground, without much joy in his heart.
He knew that this was only a small victory in his struggle with the Blood Dragon Platform, and greater challenges were still waiting for him.
At this moment, he suddenly discovered that the national treasure talisman in his hand was actually absorbing the blood of these men in black.
The runes on the talisman began to emit a faint light. As the blood seeped in, the light became brighter and brighter, as if some mysterious power was being awakened. (End of this chapter)
