The melon-eating swordsman in the ancient dragon world.

Chapter 589: Lian Chengbi, the Instigator
"Goshu's treasure?"

Zhao Wuji and Zhou Zhigang obviously didn't know about this treasure, but there was curiosity in Zhou Zhigang's eyes, and there was curiosity and greed in Zhao Wuji's eyes.

Xiantian Wuji Sect is a famous family in Hebei, and Zhao Wuji himself comes from a noble family, but who doesn’t want to enjoy more?

Moreover, Zao Wou-Ki himself was a person who loved to enjoy life. His clothes were always gorgeous, his accessories were luxurious and exquisite, he drank the most refined wine, ate the most expensive food, rode the best horse, and slept with the most beautiful women...

All these required money, but his family background did not support his extravagance, so he did something in secret.

This was also the reason why he was caught by Tianzong and was forced to join Tianzong.

So he is very interested in things like money and treasure.

"What Geshu treasure?" Zhou Zhigang asked.

Lian Chengbi smiled slightly, "Of course it is Geshu Han's treasure. In the past, there was a famous general named Geshu Han in the Tang Dynasty. He was a foreigner from the Western Regions, and his tribe was called the Geshu Tribe..."

Lian Chengbi tells the news about Geshu's treasure...

"This batch of treasures was brought into the interior by the traitors of the Geshu tribe and became the foundation of the Tianzong." Lian Chengbi's tone was full of temptation, "If we destroy the Tianzong, we may be able to get this treasure."

"hiss……"

Zhou Zhigang and Zhao Wuji both took a deep breath.

"Goshu's treasure..."

"The Geshu tribe has collected a huge amount of wealth from the Silk Road for decades..."

"Wealthy enough to rival a country..."

Zhou Zhigang sighed, "It's a pity that no one knows who the leader of Tianzong is and where the headquarters is. Otherwise, if the martial arts world rises up to attack us, I would also like to join in the fun."

Lian Chengbi laughed and said, "You are short of money too?"

Zhou Zhigang also laughed and said, "White Horse Villa is not as wealthy as Wuqi Villa. It is just barely maintaining its existence now. If there is an unexpected fortune, who would refuse it?"

Lian Chengbi pointed at Zhou Zhigang and said with a smile, "I didn't expect Brother Zhou to be such a sincere gentleman."

Zhou Zhigang smiled and said, "Let's talk about this among ourselves. If it's put outside, I won't acknowledge it."

Lian Chengbi and Zhao Wuji both laughed. Zhou Zhigang said to Zhao Wuji, "Brother Zhao, aren't you tempted?"

Zhao Wuji sighed, "How could I not be tempted? But it's useless to be tempted. It's just like what Brother Lian said. It doesn't matter whether we know it or not."

At this point, Zhao Wuji changed the subject and asked Lian Chengbi, "Brother Lian, aren't you tempted?"

Lian Chengbi said calmly, "I'm not tempted, because I'm not short of money."

Zhao Wuji, "..."

Zhou Zhigang laughed loudly, patted Zhao Wuji on the shoulder and said, "Wuqiu Villa has been passed down for three hundred years. It doesn't have much else, but it's rich!"

Zhao Wuji forced a smile, then raised his glass to drink, trying to cover up his mistake.

He originally came to test how much of the Tianzong secrets Lian Chengbi knew, but he didn't expect to uncover such a big secret.

Lian Chengbi smiled elegantly and raised his glass to drink.

If this news were released alone, it would easily arouse suspicion and cause gossip.

Is this news true or false? Is there any evidence? Could it be that Lian Chengbi is afraid of retaliation from the Tianzong and is spreading false news to make enemies for the Tianzong in order to protect himself?
But if the news was released while drinking with friends, then it must be true.

At the same time, Zhao Wuji's presence can also let some people in Tianzong know that this is definitely not fake news. By spreading this information, people in Tianzong will not doubt the authenticity of this news. In this way...

There are covetous enemies outside and disloyal people inside.

First give Xiaoyao Hou a generous gift to let him see your sincerity.

Lian Chengbi looked at Zhou Zhigang and Jin Fenghuang who were both filled with surprise. With these two socialites around, he was not worried at all that the news would not get out.

"So, this news is actually most beneficial to the people in Tianzong." Lian Chengbi added, "Because many of them have been caught by the Tianzong leader, so they have no choice but to work for Tianzong."

Zhou Zhigang asked, "Does this matter?"

Lian Chengbi said, "Of course it is related, because they are not willing to work for Tianzong, so they have no loyalty to Tianzong, and they will not feel any psychological pressure to betray."

"If the people inside the Tianzong work together to overthrow the Tianzong leader and divide up Geshu's treasure, people outside may not even hear much about it." Lian Chengbi smiled, "This is also the reason why I didn't publicize this secret."

Zhou Zhigang nodded in understanding, and then immediately said, "I won't tell anyone!"

Lian Chengbi smiled and said, "I believe you, and it's okay if you tell others. I believe that the person you tell must be a friend."

Zhou Zhigang smiled and nodded repeatedly, "Yes, yes, yes!"

Zhao Wuji looked at Zhou Zhigang and obviously didn't quite believe him.

Seeing Zhao Wuji looking thoughtful, Lian Chengbi raised his glass and said, "Come, drink."

Zhou Zhigang and Zhao Wuji immediately raised their glasses, the three of them smiled at each other, and then drank it all in one gulp.

Zhou Zhigang sighed, "I never thought that Tianzong actually inherited the treasure of the Geshu tribe, a fortune that is as rich as a country. This is really a big secret that shocked the world."

"And this treasure must be real, otherwise the descendants of the Geshu tribe would not have been able to contact the various parties in India and Persia, gain their trust, and then unite to attack the Central Plains." Lian Chengbi said dimly.

"That's right." Zhao Wuji followed Lian Chengbi's line of thought, "So the treasure must be in the Central Plains."

"But no one has ever heard of this treasure, and the Tianzong happened to rise during this period of time, and no one knows the details." Lian Chengbi said lightly, "So, this matter is not like a louse on a bald head - it's obvious, right?"

The logical chain is clear and orderly, well-reasoned and irrefutable.

"The leader of Tianzong is the traitor from the Geshu tribe?" Zhou Zhigang said in surprise.

"I don't know for now." Lian Chengbi said with a smile, "Logically speaking, if he has the courage to control so many martial arts masters, his own martial arts should not be weak. I don't know whether this traitor from the Geshu tribe has such strength."

Zhou Zhigang nodded in understanding, "Perhaps this traitor was killed as soon as he entered the Central Plains, and Geshu's treasure fell into the hands of others?"

Lian Chengbi did not comment, "It's not impossible."

Xiaoyao Hou is Ge Shutian’s secret, so of course he has to keep it for a while, but now is not the time to reveal it.

Zhao Wuji felt something in his heart, "This Tianzong Sect Master is still a powerful figure."

Zhou Zhigang said as a matter of course, "Of course he is powerful, otherwise he wouldn't be able to find out the secrets of so many people and recruit so many martial arts masters to use for himself."

Lian Chengbi smiled and said, "But no matter how powerful he is, he is still a human being, isn't he?"

Zhao Wuji smiled and said, "That's right."

Zhou Zhigang also raised his glass, "Come on, come on, drink!"
