Chapter 290 Transformed Elbows and Armpits

"Hurry! Hurry! It'll be dark if you keep stalling!"

"Be quick with your hands and feet and move quickly!"

"Oh, be careful! This is jade, don't break it!"

"You...yes, I'm talking about you! Why don't you go move things onto the boat and just be lazy here? Believe it or not, I'll give you a little less money!"

Under the autumn sun, the small island in Qianshan Lake is a busy scene.

Standing on a convex rock by the lake, Chu Tang frowned and looked at the people busy walking up and down the lake.

Two days have passed since the treasure of King Liang was found.

On the first day, Zhou Ziyu asked his men to move the treasure to the top of the stone mountain.

The next day, they were asked to send the treasure down the stone mountain.

This process is extremely troublesome. After all, there is no way up and down the mountain. You need to put the treasures box by box down the mountain with ropes.

Then, it took another day to load the ships one after another.

It is now noon. The jewelry has been loaded into two large ships and is being loaded on the third ship.

Judging from the situation, it will probably take more than an hour to completely install it, and then you can sail away from here.

In fact, this speed was already very slow. Chu Tang did not expect that King Liang would leave such a rich family fortune.

A total of more than five million taels of silver!

There are also nearly two hundred thousand taels of gold bars.

In addition, it is difficult to accurately calculate antique jewelry, but it is worth at least several million taels of silver.

As for the one or two thousand weapons and magic weapons, their value is even more immeasurable.

Chu Tang couldn't help but was speechless when he heard Xiao Xie reporting to him the number of treasures after counting them next to Zhou Ziyu the night before.

The value of this treasure can almost be used to fight a big war with 100,000 soldiers and horses.

In Zhou Ziyu's words, this was only a few percent of what King Liang owned back then.

No wonder King Liang rebelled!

The waist bag is so bulging, the waist must be very straight.

It's a pity that he failed and could only make more plans for future generations and leave these treasures behind.

In fact, Chu Tang suspected in his heart that King Liang left treasures here not only for his descendants as he said, but also because he had a chance to take out these treasures and use them as capital for his comeback.

Just look at the one or two thousand weapons that are full of magic weapons - enough to arm thousands of elites.

Who in the right mind would hide so many weapons?

Anyway, Zhou Ziyu got an advantage!

These days, Chu Tang has noticed that Zhou Ziyu has been in a state of excitement. Although the other party has been hiding it well, the tone of his voice and the light in his eyes cannot hide his exciting thoughts.

Also, anyone with so many treasures would go crazy.

It is extremely rare for Zhou Ziyu to remain calm.

However, Chu Tang felt that the other party might gain more than this from this trip.

A treasure worth over ten million taels is indeed unimaginably huge. However, is it really important to a person like Zhou Ziyu?

Chu Tang had calculated Zhou Ziyu's net worth, based on the opponent's influence in infiltrating Liangzhou, and gathering a group of subordinates who obeyed his orders. After ten years, without millions of taels of silver as a foundation, it would not be enough to succeed.

Since you already have a fortune of over one million taels, do you still need to take risks to acquire this so-called treasure of King Liang?

Although no one would mind having too much money, their identities are inherently shady, and matters involving Prince Liang are taboo for the court. No matter how good the money is, it's not like risking one's life, right?

After all, they are jade objects themselves, and they still collide with stones. Isn't this the birthday boy eating arsenic - living impatiently?

Chu Tang felt that with Zhou Ziyu's shrewdness, he would not be so unwise!

Thinking of this, Chu Tang couldn't help but look at Qin Guang, who was also standing quietly by the lake more than ten feet away, holding a long sword and carrying a backpack.

This seventh-level warrior who is a remnant of the Samsung Sword Sect has become extremely quiet in the past two days, as if he wants to deliberately hide his presence. He is low-key, silent and taciturn.

However, in Chu Tang's eyes, he was even more dazzling.

His eyes once again glanced at the baggage he was carrying behind him, and then Chu Tang turned his head casually, lowering his head in thought.

He can guarantee that three days ago, Qin Guang only had a long sword visible on his body, and there was absolutely no baggage behind it.

To be precise, before climbing the rocky mountain, he had no baggage on him; but before descending the rocky mountain, a baggage suddenly appeared behind him.

The material of this baggage is extremely simple, just black cotton, which is ordinary and has nothing special about it.

However, the bundle was very long, with a height of four or five feet, as if there was a bundle of long and hard things wrapped inside.

For two days in a row, Qin Guang carried this baggage extremely carefully, not taking it off whether he was sleeping or eating. It would not be an exaggeration to say that he was inseparable and inseparable.

What could make him take things so seriously?

Chu Tang guessed that they were weapons, and there were more than one.

There are indeed hundreds of treasures taken out this time, but the highest grade is only sixth grade, and most of the others are third and fourth grade things.

The long sword that Qin Guang usually uses is the seventh-grade magic weapon. The magic weapon that allows him to cherish it to this point shows how precious it is!

The question is, how did you get these magic weapons?

Chu Tang's eyes were in a trance, and his memory couldn't help but return to the scene on the rocky mountain the night before -

At that time, it was late at night, and except for the person on duty who was patrolling the treasure, everyone else was resting in the camp.

In the middle of the night, Chu Tang heard a muffled sound, as if something was shaking underneath.

Alert, he stood up and just opened the door of the camp, wanting to go out to investigate, but was stopped by a group of people.

They asked Chu Tang to rest peacefully and not run around.

And Chu Tang saw solemnity and suspicion in their expressions, as well as the attitude that they would fight if they did not listen to persuasion.

He couldn't help but feel a little thump in his heart. He suppressed the curiosity in his heart and returned to the camp with great care, and lay down again.

However, he stayed awake for the rest of the night. His ears stood straight up, but he didn't notice anything unusual happened.

It wasn't until dawn the next day that everyone started to get busy. Chu Tang saw the baggage Qin Guang was carrying behind him, which made him suspicious.

For this reason, he also found an opportunity to make innuendo and asked Qin Guang if he was tired carrying such a big burden.

Qin Guangze said calmly that he picked out a few of the treasures he liked and kept them for himself, including jewelry and magical weapons, but they were not heavy.

Chu Tang immediately rolled his eyes wildly secretly, thinking that this excuse was too lame. Not even humans would believe it!

He has also thought about it in the past two days: Zhou Ziyu, the so-called descendant of King Liang, has been working hard for it all these years, risking his wealth and life, and it must not only be for the apparent treasure!

He should have higher pursuits.

To be precise, outsiders don't know what the true value of King Liang's treasure is. Perhaps only he, a descendant of King Liang, understands it in his heart.

The muffled sound underneath that night was absolutely unusual. Chu Tang guessed that after the cave's jewelry was emptied, Zhou Ziyu and the others left everyone behind and went down there again to wreak havoc.

That muffled sound might have turned on some mechanism.

Then he took something out of it.

A hole within a hole? Treasure under treasure?

The more Chu Tang thought about it, the closer he felt that he was getting closer to the truth.

The question is, were the only things Zhou Ziyu secretly took out were the magic weapons shown on Qin Guang's back?

Is there nothing else of greater value?

Only the parties involved know the truth.

Chu Tang didn't think Zhou Ziyu could be allowed to take the initiative to tell him the truth under normal circumstances.

Only...

Chu Tang sighed inaudibly again, feeling disappointed: Feng Jianqi, you have failed me!

"For your mission, I, Mr. Chu, went through life and death, risking my own life, personally entering the den of thieves, and acting as a spy. It's better for you, I've been delaying it for you for several days, but you still missed it... Alas!"

Chu Tang sighed repeatedly, feeling that he had paid wrongly after all.

In about an hour, the jewelry will be loaded onto the ship, and Zhou Ziyu and his party will leave.

Qianshan Lake is so big, and they can dock at any time. At that time, it will be no different from a tiger returning to the mountains and a dragon entering the sea.

And he, Chu, could not openly fall out with so many people by himself.

Time passed quickly as Chu Tang sighed.

An hour later.

It was just after noon and the sun was shining brightly.

The water of Qianshan Lake shines with white light, and under the ripples, the three large ships draft extremely deep and look heavy.

All the treasures have been loaded.

Zhou Ziyu began to summon everyone to lecture, asking them to manage the escort ship properly and not to have any accidents. When they got to the ground and the treasures were divided, everyone could freely choose to stay or go.

In short, there will be gold, silver, treasures, antiques and magical weapons, and I will never treat you badly.

These words attracted praise from everyone, calling the young master high and righteous, and wishing the young master a long life.

Zhou Ziyu laughed heartily and waved his hand, letting everyone start boarding the boat one after another as planned.

Just like when he came, Zhou Ziyu still chose the boat in the middle.

The difference is that the layout of all the ships is different from when they arrived. The cabins are full, and the decks are piled with boxes. Everyone has nowhere to go and can only crowd on the deck.

However, as the master, Zhou Ziyu received generous treatment. The ship he was on had the fewest people deployed. In addition to the dozen people operating the ship, there were only a dozen guards.

There were only thirty people in the whole boat, which was extremely spacious compared to the other two boats, which were packed with fifty or sixty people.

Chu Tang was still in the same boat as Zhou Ziyu. Sitting on the side, when the boatman shouted to start the boat, he felt quiet and relaxed.

He vaguely felt that Feng Jianqi had missed the best opportunity to lead the Jianyi Guards to encircle and suppress Zhou Ziyu.

The small island is surrounded by water and the boat is too heavy to move. Once Zhou Ziyu is trapped on the island and enough people and horses surround him, he will be unable to fly.

If nothing else, a volley of Pogang Crossbow arrows would kill and injure a large number of people!

And when the ship is moving and it is not clear where it is docked, it will be difficult to pursue it.

Especially when Chu Tang saw that the direction of the ship was not the way it came, but continued to the southwest. He suddenly knew that Zhou Ziyu was still as cautious as before and would not be easily caught.

After thinking about this, Chu Tang's worried heart calmed down a lot, and he felt like he was lying down.

Anyway, he tried hard, and of course he can’t be blamed for the result!

What Chu Tang didn't expect was that after he just sat quietly for a while, Zhou Ziyu took the initiative to come to him and chat with him:

"Brother Chu, what are you going to do next?"

Chu Tang was stunned for a moment, then asked, "Where are you, Mr. Zhou?"

Zhou Ziyu said: "After distributing the jewelry to everyone, Zhou took the remaining money, kept his name anonymous, and became a wealthy man with no reputation."

Chu Tang wanted to say, "Is it true? I don't believe it," but he didn't want to slap someone in the face, so he had to change the topic: "With so many people, how much of Mr. Zhou's treasure will be divided between them?"

Zhou Ziyu smiled: "Money is all external things, talent is the most rare thing! They have been with me through life and death, no amount of money is too much."

Chu Tang glanced at Zhou Ziyu and thought, "You must be crazy." One moment, he said he was greedy for money and wanted to be a rich man; the next moment, he seemed to spend a lot of money and treat money like dirt.

With such a contradiction, is there any truth at all?

Zhou Ziyu thought that Chu Tang didn't believe it, so he quickly said: "Give out at least half of the gold, silver, jewelry, antique calligraphy and paintings; as for the magic weapons, according to their cultivation level, each person can choose two."

Chu Tang was shocked and couldn't help but look at Zhou Ziyu and said: "Young Master Zhou is really heroic!"

It’s really trenchant!

The treasures taken out this time, including gold, silver, jewelry and antique calligraphy and paintings, are worth no less than ten million taels of silver.

If you divide half of it, it might be enough for tens of millions of taels.

There are more than a hundred people, and each person can get at least tens of thousands of taels, and even more than a hundred thousand taels.

What is the concept of tens of thousands taels?

Even if he went to the mountains to become a bandit, gather in the mountains and forests, and do business without capital, robbing families and homes, under normal circumstances it would take him more than ten or twenty years to accumulate so much money.

This can only be achieved by being lucky and robbing wealthy families several times.

A top family, spending tens of thousands of taels, can make warriors from the fifth and sixth realms work for them for many years.

Even if he encounters a warrior who is so poor that he is in the upper three realms, he might even be able to drive him to sacrifice his life.

No wonder these people are willing to sacrifice their lives for Zhou Ziyu!

It’s too much to give!

Of course, Chu Tang had no doubt that Zhou Ziyu had other means to control his subordinates.

Seeing how so many people did not lose their sense of proportion when faced with such a huge treasure, but instead were more respectful to Zhou Ziyu and obeyed everything, this shows his restraint on everyone.

But Chu Tang also saw Zhou Ziyu's intention and asked directly: "Master Zhou wants Chu to continue to work for you?"

Zhou Ziyu said seriously: "Now that Brother Chu has spoken out, Zhou will no longer hide it. Yes, Zhou thinks that Brother Chu is a young man with a bright future. Zhou is willing to ask Brother Chu for help at any cost." work."

Chu Tang chuckled: "Didn't Mr. Zhou say he only wanted to be an anonymous rich man?"

Zhou Ziyu was embarrassed and said bravely: "Brother Chu can't walk around the world with his original appearance! It's wonderful for everyone to remain anonymous and watch the storm in secret!"

Chu Tang's eyes flashed. Sure enough, this guy is not a peaceful person. Now that he has obtained the treasure of King Liang, his strength has greatly increased, and he is afraid that his heart will become wilder.

Taking a deep breath, Chu Tang shook his head and said: "Chu should go wandering around the world. Instead of traveling in Liangzhou, it would be good to visit other states. You can meet the world's masters for a while."

Zhou Ziyu looked disappointed and asked, "Is there no need to discuss it?"

Chu Tang said: "Please find the nearest suitable place to dock and let Chu disembark."

"Okay." Zhou Ziyu sighed helplessly.

"But..." Chu Tang paused, "Master Zhou will still give Chu something that should be given to him."

"Of course!" Zhou Ziyu laughed loudly, "The magic skills and magic weapons have been prepared a long time ago. Lin'er, bring them over!"

As he spoke, he waved to Miss Lin'er and waited for her to bring the things up.

Chu Tang also rubbed his hands and smiled, waiting for his share of the reward.

However, the wind blew and the water flowed, but no one came.

"Lin'er?" Zhou Ziyu frowned slightly and turned to look behind him.

Chu Tang also looked over and saw Miss Lin'er grinning at him, with an indescribably complicated look on her face.

However, she stood there quietly, motionless. Even if Zhou Ziyu yelled a few words full of anger, she was indifferent. On the contrary, she smiled more meaningfully.

This time, even Chu Tang felt something was wrong!

"Ah! What's going on? I'm so dizzy!"

"Me...me too, I can't muster any strength!"

"Not good! I'm poisoned..."

boom! boom! boom!

On the boat, chaos suddenly broke out.

Many people fell down, feeling weak all over, vomiting from vomiting, and unconscious from unconsciousness.

Zhou Ziyu was shocked and angry, and stood up in a hurry. But when he was halfway up, he fell to the deck with a thud, his eyes showing horror.

Turn into elbow and armpit!

All hell breaks loose.

Only the boat was still breaking through the water and moving as fast as ever.
