After confirming that Ba Hong had believed his words, the two of them talked about the details about defending the city for a while.

Tang Han found that Ba Hong's expression seemed a little reluctant to speak, so he asked, "Brother Hong, we have a completely trusting relationship between each other. If you have any difficulties, please tell me. If I can do it, I will spare no effort."

After hearing Tang Han's sincere tone, Ba Hong finally took out a small brocade box from his arms and placed it on the table in front of Tang Han and said, "I actually wanted to give this thing to you for a long time, but I haven't had a chance."

Tang Han looked at the small box in front of him curiously and asked, "What is this?"

Ba Hong said: "Do you remember the group of gray-clad men we met in the forest?"

Tang Han nodded, of course he remembered. If he had been a little late that time, the four Ba brothers and sisters would have probably been gone long ago.

"They came for this brocade box." Ba Hongdao.

When Tang Han heard this, he was even more curious about what was in this brocade box.

Ba Hong said: "Our Eastern Lu Empire was destroyed by the Xia Empire ten years ago. On the eve of the fall of the country, Your Majesty ordered my father to lead people to bury a large number of wealth and weapons and classics in a secret place, and prepare to use it for restoration in the future. Only my father and his most trusted subordinates knew about this. Wurihai, the dog thief, is one of them."

Tang Han knew it, he had probably guessed what was here.

Ba Hong said again: "Yes, this brocade box contains the map of the treasures, but only one quarter of them. After his father buried the treasures, he made the map and handed it over to His Majesty. His Majesty divided the map into four, handed it to each of the two princes and the youngest third princess, and handed the last map to his father. Because his Majesty is the minister whom he trusts the most."

"My father was later killed by the dog thief Wurihai. Before his death, he handed over the quarter of the map to us and let us keep it well. In the future, if he saw two princes and princesses, he could gather them into a whole piece to find treasures and use them to restore the country."

Tang Han heard this and said, "So, the man in gray who intercepted you last time should be the two princes or princesses?"

Ba Hong nodded and said, "It should be impossible to make a mistake. The words marked on this map are very ancient texts. My father understood a little and taught my younger sister a little before. So they not only wanted to grab the map, but also wanted to kidnap my younger sister."

Tang Han said: "So, Wurihai came to force you, obviously because of this map?"

Ba Hong said: "This dog thief knows about his father burying his treasure, but he is not sure whether his father handed over the map to us, so he attacked us. Thanks to you, you, otherwise our brother and sister might have been gone long ago."

Tang Han pondered for a moment and said, "Since Emperor Donglu's will was to restore the country with this batch of treasures, it is logical that those princes and princesses should rely heavily on you, so why should they blatantly kill people and rob goods?"

Ba Hong shook his head and smiled bitterly: "I also want to know the reason. After the capital was breached, everyone fled and never contacted each other again. I don't know why they could find us, and they killed us as soon as they met."

Tang Han thought to himself that it was just that the princes and princesses were too selfish and did not want to restore the country with others, but wanted to monopolize the treasure. For this reason, they did this.

There are countless examples of this in history, and it is nothing more than the greed of human beings.

After pondering for a while, Tang Han asked, "So why did Brother Hong hand over this map to me? So you have violated Uncle Ba's last order?"

Ba Hong did not answer directly, but got up and walked to the table to take a piece of paper, picked up a brush and dipped it ink, then placed the paper in front of Tang Han, and handed the brush to Tang Han: "Please write a few words in the words of your clan."

Tang Han didn't understand why, but he took the pen and wrote the words "The Rise of the Empire of Base" on the paper.

Anyway, Ba Hong doesn't know him, so it doesn't matter what he writes.

After seeing that he finished writing, Ba Hong opened the brocade box again, took out a broken picture made of sheepskin from it and spread it on the table, and then said to Tang Han: "Your Majesty, please look."

Tang Han was stunned when he saw it.

Not to mention the curved lines on the map, the place names marked next to the lines are all traditional Chinese characters.

"Is this actually written in our Chinese characters?" Tang Han said in surprise.

"It's indeed Chinese characters." Ba Hong murmured.

A moment later he came back to his senses and said, "After we were intercepted that time, I realized that this broken picture would bring us a lot of trouble and disasters. With the ability of our brothers and sisters, we could not save it, and it might even bring about a disaster. Later, we agreed and decided to give it to you for custody. Only those with virtue and ability can have it. But then there was no suitable opportunity, so it was delayed until today."

"I came to you this time just to give it to you, but I didn't expect that I was trusted by you. I learned that you were a descendant of the royal family of the Han Empire thousands of years ago, and the prince of the Han Kingdom overseas. It made me feel that this is God's will. Since it is God's will, please accept it, and never refuse!"

Ba Hong had a sincere expression and a firm tone. After saying that, he fell to the ground with a loud bang.

When Tang Han heard this, he was actually a little confused.

He tried his best to make up a reasonable identity for himself, but he was regarded as God's will by Ba Hong and insisted on handing over the map to himself.

It is completely impossible to say that Tang Han is not moved by those treasures.

But things like treasure require collecting four maps to find. Besides, he doesn't know how much wealth there is in the treasure, let alone finding the other three people to get the map together.

It is hard to say how many princes and princesses are still alive.

I don’t know how many twists and turns will be, and whether Tang Han has to consider whether it is worth it or not.

Whether the treasure can be found is another matter, but one thing is clear. After he accepted this map, it would be equivalent to accepting the trouble caused by this map.

But is Tang Han a person who is afraid of trouble? Obviously not.

So, he thought about it and asked Ba Hong’s last question: “Did you ignore Uncle Ba’s last order? Where is your great cause of restoration?”

After a moment of silence, Ba Hong said firmly: "It's so difficult to restore the country. Besides, since ancient times, there have been no undestructive countries and dynasties. Prosperity and decline are the laws of heaven, and no one can avoid it. Only those who are virtuous and capable in the world can get it, so why should I go against the will of heaven?"

Tang Han still admired Ba Hong very much at this moment, and he could see it thoroughly.

If Murong Fu had figured this out earlier, his fairy-like cousin would not have been abducted by a young man, nor would he become a joke in the martial arts world, and eventually became a madman who sat on the grave and called a widow.

"Okay, since that's the case, I'll accept this picture." Tang Han helped Ba Hong up and said seriously.

When Ba Hong heard this, he felt much more relaxed suddenly, as if he had lifted an extremely heavy burden.
