Emperor Shen's charming wife

Chapter 119 Hardships

Shen Yu pondered for a moment: "We must find the other two magic weapons as soon as possible, otherwise, once the extremist organization gets the three magic weapons, the consequences will be disastrous." "But we don't know the whereabouts of the other two magic weapons." "It doesn't matter, we can get some clues from the traitor." So Shen Yu and Ning Yao began to interrogate the traitor, and after some interrogation, they finally learned the whereabouts of the other two magic weapons. It turned out that the other two magic weapons were in an ancient tomb and a temple respectively. Shen Yu and Ning Yao decided to go to the ancient tomb and the temple in person to look for the magic weapons. After a difficult search, they finally found the other two magic weapons. After a series of carefully planned layouts and countermeasures, in a carefully designed trap simulating the magic weapon ceremony, the hidden traitor was finally exposed because of excessive eagerness. "Your Majesty, we successfully captured the traitor!" A core member ran over excitedly, his face full of excitement. Shen Yu nodded slightly and said in a deep voice: "Okay, take him away and interrogate him strictly." After a detailed and strict interrogation, the traitor could no longer bear it and finally confessed everything. It turned out that he was one of the core figures of the extremist organization, shouldering the important task of sneaking into the palace to steal the magic weapon. "Your Majesty, now that we know the identity of the traitor, what should we do next?" A core member asked with a worried look on his face. Shen Yu frowned, thought for a moment and said: "We must find the other two magic weapons as soon as possible. You know, once the extremist organization gathers three magic weapons, it will inevitably cause unimaginable disasters." "However, we don't know the specific location of the other two magic weapons at all." "Don't worry, we can get some clues from this traitor." So Shen Yu and Ning Yao personally interrogated the traitor. Under their clever questioning, after a difficult negotiation, they finally learned the whereabouts of the other two magic weapons. It turned out that one of the two instruments was in a gloomy and mysterious ancient tomb, and the other was in a temple filled with incense. Shen Yu and Ning Yao made a prompt decision and decided to go to the ancient tomb and the temple in person, embarking on a difficult journey to find the instruments. Along the way, they encountered many difficulties and obstacles and went through untold hardships. But with firm belief and extraordinary wisdom, they finally succeeded in finding the other two instruments. Although the traitor's self-explosion destroyed the direct evidence, it still left some subtle clues, among which there was a rare explosive material that successfully attracted Shen Yu's attention. Shen Yu frowned, fell into deep thought, and murmured: "I seem to have seen this material somewhere." Ning Yao also hurried over, took a closer look, then shook her head and said: "I have never seen this thing." Shen Yu glanced at her helplessly, thinking to himself that he should not have any expectations of her. "This thing is very rare among the people, and can only be seen in some specific places." Shen Yu slowly explained. Ning Yao was curious and asked, "Where?" "For example, in some ancient tombs." Ning Yao's eyes lit up instantly, and she said excitedly, "Then we can go to those tombs to look for clues." Shen Yu nodded and said solemnly, "But those tombs are usually full of dangers. We have to find some masters who are proficient in ancient mechanisms and materials to help us." Ning Yao thought for a while and suddenly said, "I remember that Eunuch Li knows a quack. It is said that this person is very proficient in ancient mechanisms and materials. Maybe he can help us." Shen Yu nodded in agreement, "Okay, let's go find him." Then, the two came to Eunuch Li's residence together. "Your Majesty, Miss Ning, why are you here?" Eunuch Li looked at them in surprise. Shen Yu said straight to the point: "We are here to ask you for help." "Your Majesty, please go ahead." "Do you know a sorcerer who is proficient in ancient mechanisms and materials?" Eunuch Li lowered his head and pondered for a while, then said: "Your Majesty, I do know one. His name is Zhang Yu, a sorcerer who lives in seclusion." "Where is he now?" "He is on a mountain in the suburbs." "Okay, then let's go find him." After a difficult search, they finally found the mysterious sorcerer on a remote and quiet hill. The hill was shaded by green trees and the sound of birdsong rose and fell, as if it was isolated from the world. "Mr. Zhang Yu, we are here to seek your help." Shen Yu said straight to the point, his tone sincere and eager. The sorcerer raised his head and glanced at them coldly, "Your Majesty, Miss Ning, why are you here?" Shen Yu stepped forward and bowed, "We would like you to help us find something." The sorcerer frowned and asked, "What is it?" Shen Yu said in a deep voice, "A rare explosive material." The sorcerer shook his head, "Your Majesty, I have never seen this kind of thing." Shen Yu hurriedly said, "We know you have never seen it, but we would like you to help us analyze the source of this material." The sorcerer turned around, with his back to them, and sighed, "Your Majesty, I have been in seclusion for many years and don't want to be involved in disputes in the martial arts world anymore." Shen Yu said anxiously, "Mr. Zhang Yu, this matter concerns the safety of the country. Please help us find it. "Your Majesty, I am already disheartened and don't want to be involved in anything anymore." Shen Yu looked at the sorcerer's back with a firm gaze and said, "Mr. Zhang Yu, I know you have resentment in your heart, but I hope you can let go of the past and contribute to the country." The sorcerer did not move, but just repeated, "Your Majesty, you go, I won't help you." Ning Yao also stepped forward and said softly, "Mr. Zhang Yu, I know you have resentment in your heart, but we hope you can let go of the past and contribute to the country." The sorcerer remained unmoved, "You go, I won't help you." Shen Yu and Ning Yao kept persuading him, but the sorcerer remained firm and refused to help. After a difficult search, they finally found the mysterious sorcerer on a remote and quiet hill. The hill was shaded by green trees and birdsong, as if isolated from the world. The warlock was wearing a ragged long gown, his hair was messy like grass, his beard was untidy, and his eyes were full of unruly and vicissitudes. He looked quite sloppy, like a lunatic who had hidden himself in the world. "Are you Zhang Yu?" Shen Yu looked him up and down and asked. The warlock nodded slightly, "Yes, I am Zhang Yu." "We want to ask you for a favor." Shen Yu got straight to the point. "What favor?" The warlock's voice was cold. "Help us analyze this thing." Shen Yu said, carefully handing the explosive material to him. The warlock took the explosive material, took a rough look, and then shook his head resolutely, "I won't help you." "Why?" Shen Yu frowned. "Because I hate the royal family." The warlock gritted his teeth, his eyes seemed to be spewing fire. Shen Yu looked puzzled, "You hate the royal family? Why?" The warlock snorted coldly, "Because your royal family killed my father back then." Shen Yu and Ning Yao looked at each other, looking at a loss. Shen Yu pondered for a moment, "Who is your father?" "My father is Master Zhang." The sorcerer's tone was full of grief and indignation. Shen Yu suddenly realized, "It turned out to be Master Zhang, I remember that he was executed by my father because of corruption and bribery." The sorcerer's eyes were wide open, "My father was wronged, he didn't commit corruption and bribery at all." Shen Yu was speechless for a moment. Ning Yao hurriedly said, "Master Zhang, we really need your help. If you can help us, we will definitely repay you." The sorcerer said disdainfully, "What can you give me?" Ning Yao hurriedly said, "I can give you money." The sorcerer shook his head, "I'm not short of money." Ning Yao said again, "I can give you a woman." The sorcerer snorted coldly, "I don't need a woman." Ning Yao continued, "I can give you power." The sorcerer still refused, "I don't need power." Ning Yao said anxiously, "I can give you status." The sorcerer was unmoved, "I don't need status." Ning Yao was about to speak, but the sorcerer interrupted impatiently, "Enough, don't say anything more, I won't help you." Shen Yu thought for a while, and said solemnly, "If you can help us, I can restore your father's reputation." A light flashed in the sorcerer's eyes, "Really?" Shen Yu's eyes were firm, "Of course it's true." The sorcerer was silent for a moment, "Okay, I'll help you." So the sorcerer began to analyze the explosive materials carefully. After some in-depth research, the sorcerer finally came to the conclusion, "This explosive material comes from the Western Regions." Shen Yu was surprised: "Western Regions?" The sorcerer said affirmatively: "Yes, there is an organization in the Western Regions that specializes in making this kind of explosive material." Shen Yu asked anxiously: "Do you know the specific location of this organization?" The sorcerer shook his head helplessly, "I don't know." Shen Yu looked disappointed. Ning Yao hurriedly asked: "Then do you know how to find this organization?" The sorcerer shook his head again, "I don't know." Shen Yu and Ning Yao looked at each other and fell into silence.
