The Unorthodox Tomb Raider

"Don't rush, even the most cunning fox will eventually slip up."

Fang Yun's face revealed a mysterious expression, his eyes fixed on his surroundings.

Suddenly at that moment, he grabbed a handful of sand from the ground, then raised the handful of sand in his hand and scattered it into the air.

Then one could hear the rustling sound of the sand and gravel falling into the jungle.

Wang Hai was confused and didn't know what Fang Yun wanted to do. If Fang Yun had been holding a silver needle, it might have been useful, but what use could sand have?

Fang Yun made a soft gesture, signaling Wang Hai to be quiet for the moment, and then continued to repeat his previous actions, scooping up sand and stones from the ground and scattering them around.

After doing it several times in a row, a smile suddenly appeared on Fang Yun's lips.

"Brother Wang, it's time for you to make your appearance."

Fang Yun gave Wang Hai a wink, then walked over to him and whispered some things in his ear.

At first, Wang Hai looked somewhat shocked, but he gradually calmed down. In the end, he bowed to Fang Yun to show that he would definitely do a good job.

Then Fang Yun sneered in a certain direction, "Come out. I already know where you are. All the sand and gravel were scattered there, but the sound was slightly different from where you were, so I guessed that must be where you were hiding."

"I'm giving you one last chance. If you come out on your own initiative, maybe we can shake hands and make peace, and perhaps we can even become friends in the future."

"But if you continue to be so stubborn about doing this, then you won't have an easy time later, let alone any benefits to discuss. Gu Yong, you're the kind of person you're dealing with, so I hope you'll think carefully before accepting this order."

Fang Yun's words caused a moment of silence on the other end. The only sounds in the forest were the chirping of insects and birds; there was no other response.

Meanwhile, Fang Yun walked towards the clump of grass he had just mentioned. As he walked, he secretly drew his knife. Fang Yun was certain that the person connected to this matter had crossed paths with him before.

When A-Gang reached the bushes, Fang Yun quietly raised the short knife in his hand. Fang Yun's eyes were also very alert as he looked around, as if guarding against any prey that might suddenly dart out, making it the easiest way to catch someone off guard.

After calling out several times without receiving a response, Fang Yun's patience began to wane. He found a stick and started tapping the nearby bushes, trying to find the person hiding there.

But this jungle was so vast, and this matter was not so easy. After hitting him a few times, Fang Yun was also a little tired.

"Let's see where you've hidden. I'll keep hitting you with this stick, do you really think I can't find you?"

Fang Yun stopped talking about tactics and used up his last bit of energy to make a complete mess of the environment for the two of them.

Amidst the commotion, a short blade quietly emerged from behind Fang Yun and pressed against his back.

"Calling you stupid is too kind. You've been banging on thin air all day. It's ridiculous."

Upon hearing this, Fang Yun's face lit up with a hint of surprise. The person who attacked him was actually a woman, and judging from the cheongsam and elegant coat she was wearing, her family must be quite wealthy.

But it's utterly baffling that such a person would now attempt to assassinate him.

Chapter 726 Surprise Attack

"Who exactly are you? Why are you following us?"

Fang Yun was held at knifepoint in the back of his heart by this man, but he did not move.

"You don't need to worry about that. Just know that you're about to die. If it's true, don't resist. Just let me take your life obediently, and that will make it a little easier for you."

Fang Yun smiled upon hearing this.

"It's really baffling. Just because someone walks up to me and says these things, does that mean I should take their advice?"

Upon hearing this, the man tightened his grip on the knife even more.

"You don't need to think too much, just accept the final result."

"Such arrogance! I'll have to see if you really have the ability."

The man snorted coldly, then stomped his foot on the ground. The fallen leaves flew up, and with a few quick strokes of his short blade, he turned them into something resembling noodles.

However, this skill alone demonstrates that this person is indeed a master knife user. Moreover, the speed is incredibly fast; to manipulate a blade like this without any leverage is something even Wang Hai couldn't do.

Fang Yun initially thought it was nothing serious and that the petty thief didn't care much, but now he realized that he had really met his match.

Fang Yun searched his memory carefully, but still couldn't find any recollection of this person.

He couldn't recall ever having any contact with such a person. Since they were complete strangers and didn't know each other at all, why was this person so determined to seek revenge on him?

Meanwhile, the assassin clearly didn't want to continue the game either, and then he was about to plunge the dagger into Fang Yun's muscles.

Just then, Fang Yun's muscles twitched, suddenly knocking the short blade from the man's hand. To everyone's surprise, a shout came from the side, and a middle-aged man leading a large group of people came over.

Fang Yun looked closely and realized that the person was none other than Wang Hai. He hadn't expected him to come up with such a surprising tactic.

Only then did Fang Yun realize the man's true strength. This was assuming he was Wang Hai. And since Wang Hai was right beside him, it couldn't possibly be him.

Meanwhile, the assassin was also somewhat flustered. He hadn't expected to fail several times in a row, which made him almost too ashamed to face his work the next day.

So I came to do this part on a gamble.

“Young Master Fang, I had just set up an ambush nearby, but I suddenly encountered this group of people. They told me that they were residents of the neighborhood and that a group of robbers had stolen a lot of their belongings, but they had never noticed it and didn’t even know how the things were stolen. This shows how good these robbers were at hiding.”

“I originally said I was going to travel alone, but they were so enthusiastic, and when they heard we were in trouble, they immediately organized a team to come and follow us.”

Fang Yun was quite surprised to hear this, not knowing that these people had such an unknown side.

Just then, Wang Hai gathered a few people and quickly came over to help Fang Yun.

As for what exactly it was that Wang Hai found, we'll have to wait for him to tell others.

Taking advantage of the opportunity, Fang Yun didn't want it to pass by, so he went up and picked a lily. Although this kind of flower can be found in the wild, most of them are wild flowers and are not as vibrant as real flowers.

"Do it!"

Just then, Fang Yun suddenly shouted, and Wang Hai heard it too. Immediately, he and several men, armed with weapons, surrounded Fang Yun, as if afraid that Fang Yun would be left unattended.

Seeing this, Fang Yun told them not to come any closer.

Wang Hai was originally a surprise force arranged by Fang Yun, intended to capture this person by surprise. First, Fang Yun would distract the person, then Wang Hai would stalk the mantis while the oriole lurks behind, capturing the person from behind.

But man proposes, God disposes; unexpectedly, in just a short while, a dramatic change occurred.

Wang Hai, having encountered this group of people, completely forgot about his original plan to act as an inside agent in the next stage of the chain. Fortunately, Fang Yun quickly recovered, turned around, and grabbed the man's wrist with his hand.

Even if Wang Hai had forgotten what happened before, upon seeing this scene, as a seasoned veteran assassin, he rushed over, intending to lock all the other joints on this person's body.

"Young Master Fang, I'm so sorry, I was so busy just now that I forgot about it."

Wang Hai glanced at Fang Yun apologetically. Fang Yu, however, saw a glimmer of hope in his eyes. Just by looking at this person's technique and skills, one could tell that their skill level or the years they had spent learning in this area were definitely not short.

If I could win this person over, wouldn't that be a great help to me? Then my trip wouldn't have been in vain.

Chapter 727 Female Assassin

Although Fang Yun and his companion had called out several times towards that location, there was still no response.

This person is as cunning as a rabbit. Although I just saw him once, he disappeared again.

Just then, the sound of wind chimes tinkling came from afar. The chimes jingled, clear and melodious, and very pleasant to hear.

Fang Yun and his companion both looked in that direction and saw a figure rushing towards them at high speed not far away.

Fang Yun initially thought the person was running, but upon closer inspection, she realized that the person was actually using a roller skate. The reason she had been moving so fast was because of this roller skate.

What's even more surprising is that the ground here isn't flat, with many potholes and bumps, yet this car can still drive so fast; it seems the design is quite good.

Of course, what was most surprising was that the person who came was a girl completely covered in a black robe.

This girl has a pretty face, and although she's a bit plump, she looks very energetic. Especially her big, bright eyes, which are very expressive and full of life.

When the girl arrived, she looked around warily.

"Did you just fight that person?"

"Which person?"

"It's that assassin who just attacked you. He's despicable. He stole my things and has disappeared in the blink of an eye. I just caught up with him."

Fang Yun suddenly realized that this was how it was, and at this moment he suddenly realized that the feeling of capturing that person from before had also disappeared.

It seems that the assassin has already gone far away. In that case, even if I wanted to chase after him, it would probably be very difficult to catch up.

"Who was that assassin? What did he take from you?"

Fang Yun asked curiously, still wanting to find out the person's identity.

"I don't really know her exact identity, but she's a female hooligan. She was carrying two short knives and was incredibly fast. After she stole my things, I was almost able to catch her, but she always managed to slip away."

At this point, the woman in black stomped her foot angrily on the ground.

"By the way, did that female assassin also steal your things? Otherwise, why would you fight against her?"

"We don't know either, but maybe she attacked us because she wanted to take something good from us."

When Fang Yun heard this question, she knew that the person was not very clear about the matter, so she did not ask any further questions.

However, the female assassin's identity was very suspicious. She came in such a hurry and left in such a fast manner. Could it really have just been a coincidence that she met the two of them?

Fang Yun stopped caring about the matter. No matter what tricks that sect had up its sleeve, he would deal with them as they came. If they dared to make any more moves against him, he would definitely teach them a lesson.

"Oh, by the way, I have some news for you. I'm currently short-handed, but I know of a treasure trove nearby. Would you like to come with me to dig it up? If we find anything, I'll share some with you. Even just a few items should be enough for you for a long time."

· ········Requesting flowers· ····

The woman in the black robe put her hands on her hips and said proudly.

"No need. We have other things to do now. If you want to find the treasure, go ahead and do it yourself. But there are a lot of people around here, so I advise you to be quick so that others don't see you and cause a fight between the two of you."

Fang Yun smiled, then glanced at Wang Hai before preparing to leave.

Regardless of whether the woman in black robes is credible or not, even if there really is treasure here, I'm not necessarily interested.
