Chapter 570: Geshu Treasure
Xiao Shiyilang?
Xiao Shiyilang!
Feng Siniang's heartbeat stopped for a moment, and an image of a wild face with thick eyebrows and big eyes emerged in her mind, as well as the unyielding figure rushing up the cliff against the waterfall.

Yang Kaitai was completely confused, because Xiao Shiyilang's reputation was much worse than Feng Siniang's.

Although Feng Siniang's actions are both good and evil, she is generous and cheerful, and can be said to have friends all over the world. However, Xiao Shiyilang is like a lone wolf, and not many people even know him.

How could these two people have anything in common?

Feng Si Niang looked bewildered, and Yang Kaitai was confused and uncertain.

But at this time, Feng Siniang was at the front and Yang Kaitai was in the middle, and no one could see their expressions.

Shen Bijun's voice became louder, and then she immediately covered her mouth.

Lian Chengbi glanced at the two people in front of him with a smile and stopped talking.

Feng Siniang rode her horse around in front, then turned back as if she hadn't noticed anything, found a ferry at the Taolai River, and ferried the four people and four horses across the river.

After crossing the Taolai River, you will reach Jiayuguan.

There were soldiers from the imperial court stationed inside the pass, but the battlefield between the martial artists from the Central Plains and the bandits from the Western Regions did not take place inside the pass, but in a Gobi desert not far from the pass.

Gobi Desert, poplar trees, rocky forests, and yellow sand piles.

Under the sunlight, everything was dim.

There were still wisps of rags hanging on the poplar trees, and the strong wind blew away the sand and gravel, occasionally revealing a hint of paleness.

A few years have passed, and the yellow sand has buried the bloodstains of that day. Except for some unweathered marks from knife and sword cuts on the tree trunks and rocks, there are no longer any traces of the battlefield here.

"Is this the battlefield from that year?" Shen Bijun looked around, and there was no one around.

Feng Siniang nodded and said, "When I first came to Jiayuguan, I heard people talking about the battle not long ago. I also went here to take a look, but I didn't gain anything."

Lian Chengbi walked in the woods, reached out to touch the poplar tree next to him, and his fingers touched the scratches on the trunk.

"When the long sword hit the tree trunk, there was an obvious force-retracting rotation. It can be seen that the long sword is heavy at the front and light at the back. This is the unique force-generating technique of the Five Tigers Breaking Gate Sword." Lian Chengbi said, "Was there a successor of the Five Tigers Breaking Gate Sword here back then?"

"The Shanxi Peng family has frequent contacts with the Guanzhong martial arts world, so it's normal for them to be involved in the affairs of the Guanzhong martial arts world," Feng Si Niang said.

Lian Chengbi nodded and saw another knife mark on the gravel.

"It was a straight strike, without dragging the blade." Lian Chengbi traced the blade mark from beginning to end, "What a long blade, it's a saber for beheading horses. I wonder if this Longyou Heavenly King Sword belongs to the bandits or is it from the Guanzhong Wulin Sect?"

"It should be with the Guanzhong martial arts world, because the Longyou Tianwang Sword School is still alive and well." Feng Si Niang said.

"Si Niang hasn't been to the Pure Land for several years, but I didn't expect that she is so well-informed about the news in the martial arts world?" Lian Chengbi said with a smile.

Feng Siniang rolled her eyes. "The Heavenly King Sword lineage is in Ganlong. We can find out about it by just asking anyone, right?"

Everyone laughed when they heard this, and Lian Chengbi found three more sword marks on the two tree trunks.

He was very familiar with these sword marks. "This is the Tianshan Sword Technique and the Kunlun Sword Technique. I didn't expect that there were so many people involved in the battle back then."

"Tianshan and Kunlun are both in the Western Regions. They have the responsibility to defend their territory. They will naturally get involved in what happens on their doorstep." Yang Kaitai did not find it strange.

The places where Tianshan and Kunlun are located are actually no longer under the jurisdiction of the imperial court, but the two sects have always regarded themselves as Central Plains warriors for hundreds of years, and their successors are mostly found in the Central Plains martial arts world.

According to them, their founder was a prominent figure in the Central Plains martial arts world. He expanded the territory for the Central Plains martial arts world and established his sect in the depths of Kunlun Mountain and on the top of Tianshan Mountain. Their descendants are unworthy and unable to carry forward the sect, but they dare not forget their ancestors and change their sect.

Lian Chengbi nodded, flicked his fingers lightly on a branch, and then a golden light appeared between his two fingers. "Golden needle?" Shen Bijun was surprised and hurried forward to take the golden needle from his hand.

I saw that the golden needle was about an inch long. Because it had been nailed into the tree for a long time, the surface was still golden and there was no trace of wind and frost.

But when she saw the golden needle, Shen Bijun's eyes were immediately filled with tears, as if she saw her majestic and kind parents.

Feng Siniang also came over and looked at Lian Chengbi in surprise, "I didn't expect your eyesight is so good."

Lian Chengbi smiled and nodded, then couldn't help but frown, "So many martial artists seem to be quite skilled, but it is said that there were heavy casualties. Are those bandits so powerful?"

Lian Chengbi was not clear about the details of this battle before. After all, he was still in Jiangnan at that time. He learned the news several months later. He only knew that his father participated in the battle and died on the spot.

But when he arrived at the scene, there were four traces he could recognize: the Peng family's Five Tigers Gate-Breaking Sword, the Longyou Heavenly King's Ghost-Slaying Sword, the Kunlun School's swordsmanship, and the Tianshan School's swordsmanship.

This shows that in addition to the Guanzhong martial arts world, many masters of the Northwest martial arts world are also involved.

But even so, it is said to be a pyrrhic victory.

"Did they run into an ambush by the bandits?" Lian Chengbi asked.

"I heard that there are many masters among the bandits. Some of them are from India and Persia. They have been wandering in the Western Regions. Although they are not from the Central Plains, their martial arts are strange and are not inferior to ordinary martial arts masters." Feng Si Niang said.

Lian Chengbi raised his eyebrows, "Why did they want to get involved in this mess?"

Feng Siniang sneered, "For a fictitious treasure."

"What treasure?" Shen Bijun asked curiously.

"I heard that it is a treasure that the Western Turkic Geshu tribe has had for hundreds of years since the Tang Dynasty." Feng Si Niang said.

Lian Chengbi turned around suddenly and asked, "Which Geshu?"

Feng Siniang said, "It's the Geshu from the famous Tang Dynasty general Geshu Han. It is said that during the Tang Dynasty, the Silk Road was prosperous, and the Geshu tribe was dependent on the imperial court. Chang'an also had famous generals like Geshu Han. The Geshu tribe enjoyed the geographical advantage and traded with the two sides, accumulating a huge amount of wealth."

"Under Geshu Han's advice, the Geshu tribe did not squander the wealth or show off their wealth. Instead, they converted the wealth into gold, silver, and jewelry and hid it away, waiting for the world to change."

Feng Siniang introduced, “But the An-Shi Rebellion soon broke out in the Tang Dynasty, and the Western Regions became a mess. The Geshu tribe suffered a great loss of strength in this incident, and its glory was gone.

It is said that when the Geshu tribe wanted to use the treasure later, they found that all the people who knew about the treasure had died. In the end, they searched all over the Western Regions for a long time but still couldn't find it.

Since then, the treasure has become a mystery. For hundreds of years, there have been only legends about Geshu's treasure, but no one has ever seen it again. "

"If that's the case, then how did the treasure appear again?" Yang Kaitai asked.

"I heard that it was a member of the Goshu tribe who found clues to the treasure from objects passed down from their ancestors, and then found the treasure." Feng Si Niang said.

"But if they want to find treasure, why do they want to attack the Central Plains? Could it be that the treasure of the Geshu tribe is still in the Central Plains?" Shen Bijun asked.

Feng Siniang said helplessly, "I heard that the descendants of the Geshu tribe betrayed their tribe and entered the Central Plains with the treasure."

"what?"

"So some other descendants of the Geshu tribe contacted the bandits and warriors roaming in the Western Regions, preparing to fight their way into the Central Plains, vowing to bring back the treasure."

Feng Si Niang said coldly, "They said that this batch of treasures was taken by the Central Plains. If they can't find the treasures, they will take back the same value of the treasures from the Central Plains."
