Real Cthulhu Running Game

“If used properly, this token can have unexpected effects.”

Yu Lei looked at the token and said with shining eyes: "So Liu Peng, you don't mind giving this token to the third prince, right? If it can be confirmed that this token is genuine, then the third prince will definitely not treat him badly." your."

"That's natural. When I found this token, I thought of giving it to the third prince, but I didn't expect that this token would be so important!" Liu Xing said quickly.

Yu Lei accepted the token with great satisfaction and said with a smile: "In that case, I will accept it on behalf of the third prince first. Later I will ask Xia Fei to send the token back! To be honest, I am I really didn’t expect Liu Peng that you could give me so many surprises just two days after you came back. It’s not in vain that I chose to be friends with you! Let’s do this, let’s take some time to become sworn brothers. From now on, Liu Peng Your business is my Yu Lei business!"

Liu Xing looked at Yu Lei in surprise, not expecting him to say that.

However, since he can be sworn brothers with Yu Lei, Liu Xing must be dreaming of it. After all, Yu Lei is a quasi-first-class master, and he can arm-wrestle with first-class masters under certain conditions, so having such a helper is very important to him. This is good news for Liu Xing.

What's more, Yu Lei is also the third prince's confidant, responsible for delivering various messages, so Yu Lei should have a lot of useful information.

"It's better to choose a different day than to hit it, so why don't we become sworn brothers today? It's just right..."

Before Liu Xing finished speaking, Yu Lei said with a look of regret: "Today is really bad! Because I was going to Far West City for a trip today, so I thought of coming over to take a look on the way, but I didn't Thinking of Liu Peng, you have prepared so many generous gifts for me; so if there is nothing else, I am ready to continue to Far West City, after all, Xia Fei is still waiting for me there."

Liu Xing raised his eyebrows and asked immediately: "If possible, Brother Yu, can you tell me what you are doing in Far West City? We happen to have a group of brothers doing business in Far West City, so Brother Yu, if you need me Write a letter now and ask them to cooperate with you, Brother Yu."

Yu Lei thought for a while, then nodded and said: "This is indeed not something that needs to be kept secret. It's just that a group of crooked members came from Far West City. They seem to have some connection with a chamber of commerce named Zhengsheng, and this Zhengsheng The Chamber of Commerce is also a family member of a sect in Far West City, so the Third Prince ordered Xia Fei and I to go and sit down and assist Wu Tai in investigating the relationship between the three; if there is really a problem, then we will take action to solve it Get rid of them, so Liu Peng, if your brothers are willing, they can follow me to see the world, and then they can get a share of the pie."

Hearing what Yu Lei said, Liu Xing quickly waved his hand and said: "Where, aren't we all working for the third prince, so what do we need to share?"

"Liu Peng, don't be polite. If you don't want this piece of cake, we will share it with others, so we might as well give it to our own people."

Yu Lei smiled and shook his head and said: "As far as the current situation is concerned, Hesheng Chamber of Commerce is most likely to be involved in the evil ways, so this chamber of commerce will definitely change hands by then! If I remember correctly, the ownership of this chamber of commerce It’s neither big nor small, so it’s just right for you, Liu Peng, to take care of. Anyway, don’t you have business in Far West City? You can just move in when the time comes.”

"Then we would rather obey orders than be respectful."

Liu Xing nodded and changed the topic: "By the way, I remember when I was in Boyang City before, I heard that there was a group of crooked members operating nearby. As a result, there was no definite news, so they Did they all go to Far West City?"

"Probably. There are many chambers of commerce in Far West City doing business, so there has always been a mixture of dragons and snakes. It is also the favorite place for those crooked people to stay."

Yu Lei stretched, stood up and said, "Okay, I will go to Far West City to work now. If nothing happens, I will be back within three days. Then we will find a place to sworn brothers. ! As for the letter or something, I don’t think I need it, because I will work as the third prince’s envoy, so Liu Peng, your brothers won’t not help me, right?”

"That's natural."

Liu Xing was just about to say "bon voyage" when he suddenly thought of something, "By the way, Brother Yu, didn't I just tell you that I have a friend who is half a disciple of the old leader? He used to be from Tianshui Town. He was also the only survivor of Sweetwater Town after it was burned to the ground, so he still remembered seeing a group of mysterious people the day before the incident. The box they were carrying had a symbol that looked like a 3 on it, so I was there Wonder if this 3 is a Greek letter.”

Because the New Dragon Empire has trade relations with many countries, Arabic numerals have also spread. Of course, in this martial arts module, the Arabic numerals have been renamed Tianzhu numerals.

Yes, in fact, the Arabic numerals in the real world were invented by the ancient Tianzhu people, but because it was carried forward by Arab businessmen, they are called Arabic numerals.

But in this martial arts module, the Xinlong Empire and the Kingdom of Tianzhu in the south have had close trade exchanges for a long time. For example, Zhang Jingxu’s current master has a businessman friend from Tianzhu, so the Tianzhu numbers have long been in Xinzhu. The Dragon Empire has become popular, and almost everyone who can read knows Tianzhu numerals, so Liu Xing now directly uses "3" to describe Epsilon in the Greek alphabet.

"Like the Greek letter 3? Isn't that Epsilon?"

Yu Lei said seriously: "If your friend Liu Peng read it correctly, then the 3 she saw is actually Epsilon in the Greek alphabet, which means transporting important items! As far as I know, Shadow Guards generally do not use this Epsilon on tokens, but print it on the packaging of some important items to represent that there are very important things inside, and only those holding Alpha and Beta tokens can open it. Check it out, and the people who hold the Alpha and Beta tokens are important figures in the Shadow Guards, and no matter how bad they are, they are still in charge of a certain city!"

"It seems that Sweetwater Town was turned into ruins because of the Shadow Guards, and if nothing else happened, the box should have been lost, otherwise the Shadow Guards would not have been so aggressive! So judging from the currently known information, that year It was led by a shadow guard who held a Pusai token and was responsible for escorting boxes containing important items through Sweetwater Town. As a result, something happened to the shadow guard and the box together; so the remaining shadow guards thought they had been exposed. They lost their identity, so they were assassinated in Sweetwater Town, but they couldn't determine who was protecting them, so these shadow guards could only conduct a blanket search of Sweetwater Town to recover the token and the box."

"But as far as I know, many forces came to investigate after the incident in Tianshui Town. For example, the old city lord of Boyang City and the prefect of Far West City both sent people from Wutai. After all, Tianshui Town is brewed by a family. It was developed out of nowhere, so Tianshui Town is in an awkward position like Heshan County. It belongs to neither Far West City nor Boyang City. It just pays the corresponding share fee according to the direction of the wine delivery; other than that , the third prince also sent my master and several others to Tianshui Town to investigate, but because those shadow guards finally chose to set fire, no useful clues could be found at all."

At this point, Yu Lei became serious again, "Yeah, how could I forget this matter! Since the Pusa token was found in the same place as the iron sword, then what happened back then? That box contains most likely this iron sword! So if this iron sword is really a scrap iron sword used by the new Dragon Emperor, then I seem to know what these shadow guards want to do!"

"What do they want to do?!" Baihe City asked very flatteringly.

"Didn't I say it before? There will definitely be the Qi of the Emperor on the real scrap iron sword, and this Qi of the Emperor will also be affected by the new Dragon Emperor. After all, it is because of the existence of the New Dragon Emperor that this Qi appears. The aura of the emperor! So there is no need to say what I am going to say next. You should also know what the shadow guard wants to do with this scrap iron sword with the aura of the emperor, right? Yes, it is to use some shameful means to make this The Qi of the Dao Emperor was polluted, and even directly deteriorated into a waste gas, which adversely affected the health of the new Dragon Emperor..."

At this point, Yu Lei stopped talking.

Of course, at this time, Liu Xing still knew very well what Yu Lei wanted to say, that is, the reason why the new Dragon Emperor suddenly "sick in bed and has not been in court for a long time" is probably because of certain items. The emperor's spirit has been polluted by others.

After a moment of silence, Yu Lei sighed and said: "Although it is said that all items related to the new Dragon Emperor may have the aura of the emperor, the aura of the emperor on most items is not a climate, and this If an item is seriously damaged, no matter how much the emperor's energy on it is, it will directly dissipate; therefore, the new Dragon Emperor's daily necessities will be replaced once a month, and will be burned by the new Dragon Emperor himself. Therefore, there are not many items that can be preserved with the spirit of the emperor, and most of them are placed in the new Dragon Emperor's own warehouse."

"So excluding the items with the spirit of the Emperor in the hands of the new Dragon Emperor, there should not be many left that have been spread out! And logically speaking, they are all kept in the hands of the princes and grandsons, which is what we often say For example, when the third prince was sent to Liangcheng to take charge of one side, the new Dragon Emperor gave him a folding fan inscribed by him; so I feel that something like a scrap iron sword is really living outside, and has a strong There are only a handful of items with the Emperor's Qi. After all, even the new Dragon Emperor doesn't know their whereabouts! So if these recent gossips are really related to the Emperor's Qi, then I'm really a little uncomfortable. I dare to imagine it.”

Hearing what Yu Lei said, Liu Xing and others also remained silent.

After a while, Yu Lei shook his head and said: "You'd better not tell other people about the things I said today, because if this matter gets spread, there may be many problems! And there is this iron sword. I have to take it away now. Of course, Liu Peng, you have to give it to me as soon as possible after you find the scabbard, because even if there is only one in 10,000 chance that this iron sword is the scrap iron sword used by the new Dragon Emperor, I will not It needs to be well protected to prevent it from falling into the wrong hands."

Liu Xing nodded, immediately handed the iron sword to Yu Lei, and said seriously: "Then I will arrange for people to dig out the scabbard now. If nothing happens, I should be able to find the scabbard today. Then I will Send someone to send the scabbard to Far West City immediately!"

Yu Lei waved his hand, shook his head and said: "Don't worry, only this iron sword is the key point, the scabbard is just an accessory! Let's put it this way, even if the scabbard has the aura of the emperor, its weight may still be It is not as good as 1% of the iron sword, so this emperor's energy will not make any waves at all. At most, it will make the new Dragon Emperor sneeze; but when the iron sword is returned to the scabbard, then Only then can it be considered truly complete, and you can also tell whether it is a scrap iron sword, so Liu Peng, you try to find the scabbard within three days, and I will come back from Far West City to get it then."

After Yu Lei finished speaking, he left the Juyi Hall with the iron sword and token.

After Yu Lei left, Baihe City sighed: "It seems that some people really can't sit still, and they can even do this! But this matter can be regarded as a Rashomon, because no one can I know it was the prince who did it. After all, they should all have imperial gifts that can be used for manipulation... And judging from the current situation, these princes may be pretending to be confused. Maybe they It has been analyzed from those gossips that some people are using the emperor's energy to make a fuss, but they all want to take this opportunity to replace the position of the new Dragon Emperor."

"When the snipe and the clam fight, the fisherman wins. Now that the prince doesn't stand up to mention this matter, then even if the prince who actually took action wins the final victory, then he can still put this blame on the heads of others. Come on! Everyone is likely to do this anyway, so this blame can be put on any prince’s head."

Liu Xing sighed and said helplessly: "But it doesn't matter to us. Anyway, we only need to fight for our own interests. After all, this year's game time is destined to make this game seem to be very... A grand war may end up calming down after a few battles, and a city should not be defended for decades; but this is normal. After all, everyone is still a family, except for those die-hard supporters of the prince. Besides, there shouldn’t be anyone who would want to break their heads and bleed them, right?”
