Chapter 702 The Treasure of Xizhou City

Maybe it was used to being bullied by bandits, or the atmosphere in the Western Regions was like this. Every time a member of the guard team passed by a family, the owner of the family would take out his own food in great fear and even push out his own women.

This approach made Wang Xuance feel disgusted.

I also look down on this practice.

The members of the guard team ignored the practices of these Western Regions.

Apart from the necessary water and food, the guards will not take one more thing.

The teams that come out of Jingyang and the teams that come out of Guanzhong must have strict discipline.

Otherwise, what's the difference with those bandits?

Li Ke followed the indigenous people here to a very secret cave in Xizhou City.

There is a door in the cave and a huge lock.

Li Ke pulled out the horizontal knife, and the reflection of the horizontal knife in the sun was very dazzling.

Just looking at this bright knife face, you can tell that the knife is very sharp.

Li Ke waved his sword, and with a crisp metal collision, the chain broke into two pieces.

What a sharp knife...

Several Western Regions were surprised when they looked at the knife in Li Ke's hand.

The people in the Western Regions had very poor iron wrought iron skills.

Picking up a chain, Li Ke looked at it in his hand.

This iron is very light and has a very rough texture.

This kind of iron is just a little better than a stone.

The difference is more than a little bit worse than the horizontal knife in your hand.

The new horizontal knife is much sharper than the previous horizontal knife.

Li Ke deeply understands how good is the benefit of wrought iron technology to weapons.

If there are only sharp weapons and no elite team, it will be useless.

When Li Ke pushed open the door, a pile of gold caught his eye.

It was a little dazzling for a moment.

When he walked into this cave, Li Ke tried hard to swallow his saliva. Unexpectedly, there was so much gold in the cave under Xizhou City that he had captured, piled up in front of him like a hill.

The old man from Xizhou City said in the unfamiliar Guanzhong dialect: "This general, you can give all these golds to you, so please protect Xizhou."

Li Ke picked up a piece of gold and looked at it and threw it down again. He climbed up above the pile of gold, picked up the torch and looked at the situation in the cave. There were more gold and jade artifacts behind the cave.

It's like a pond full of gold and jade, it's fake to say that you don't feel moved.

Who can not be moved in the face of so much wealth?

The old man from Xizhou City, who was standing aside, observed Li Ke's expression and was surprised to find that the general from Guanzhong did not seem to be too excited about the gold in front of him. Instead, he could see that the general had more worries in his eyes.

When Li Ke walked down the hill-like pile of gold, the old man said: "This general, Xizhou City is not in enough staff to defend Xizhou. If the general can help us protect Xizhou, these golds belong to the general."

Li Ke glanced at the smile on the old man's face.

The old man still squeezed out a smile.

After taking a few more glances, Li Ke felt that the old man's smile was stranger, "I think it's strange. Don't those bandits know that there is such a large vault here?"

The old man whispered: "How can those bandits compare to the general? They are bandits. We hate those bandits to the core, and the general is here to save us."

Li Ke put away his sword, turned his head and left the vault without saying a word.

The old man stood in the vault and looked more confused.

Back at the city entrance, Wang Xuance was taking people to repair the city wall.

Li Ke told Wang Xuance about the matter in the vault.

Wang Xuance was also a little surprised, "There are so much gold."

Li Ke nodded stiffly, "It's enough gold for all of us to have food and clothing for the rest of our lives."

Wang Xuance whispered: "What does Your Highness the King of Shu think?"

Several Westerners sent watermelons. Li Ke stopped talking and took the watermelons.

After these Western Regions left, Li Ke said, "Don't you find it strange? If there is so much gold in Xizhou City, those bandits will not take it away? They don't know that there is such a large treasury?"

After saying this, Wang Xuance also became alert, "If this is the case, it is indeed very strange."

Li Ke continued, "What puzzled me the most is that they said they were willing to give us these golds, just to help them protect Xizhou City."

Wang Xuance said again: "Is Your Highness the King of Shu tempted?"

Li Ke smiled coldly, "I have no interest in gold, silver and money. I came to Tubo and killed so many people. Gold, silver and money are just objects. As long as I win, they will all belong to us."

Wang Xuance turned around and looked at the Western Regions people coming and going in the city of Xizhou behind him.

"Your Highness, it seems that we must be alert during this period. Any stranger who is passionate about you has a purpose. They must want to get something from you. This is what Chang'an Ling said."

Li Ke said in a deep voice: "Then what do they like about us?"

Wang Xuance shook his head and was speechless.

Li Ke said again: "I always find this Xizhou City strange."

Wang Xuance looked around and nodded.

For half a month, Li Ke and Wang Xuance have been guarding Xizhou City.

The bandits who were driven out before did not come back to attack, and no one passed by Xizhou City.

Li Ke felt more and more strange in his heart.

Too calm.

It was so calm that it was a little abnormal.

"Your Highness, King Shu, we found a team of big cannibals!"

"Dashi?"

Li Ke followed the soldiers to the top of the city and looked to the west of Xizhou City. There was indeed a team of people in the desert. The other party was not too far from here, and he could see clearly the other party's clothes, which should be the clothes of a big cannibal.

It was as if they were observing Xizhou City. They were riding horses and wandering slowly outside the city, with about one hundred people.

He didn't get close, he just wandered there.

Wang Xuance also rushed to say, "Why did the big cannibals come here? Isn't Big cannibals fighting Persia?"

Li Ke also wondered: "Can Persia be dead?"

Wang Xuance said: "Not even if Persia is destroyed, the great cannibals may not arrive in Xizhou so quickly."

Li Ke was full of doubts.

This Xizhou City doesn't look simple.

The bandits first controlled Xizhou City, which was not surprising at first.

Xizhou is a very important place in the Western Regions.

It's nothing to occasionally cause war.

Now that Tubo is too busy to take care of himself, the Western Turks are in a mess, without strong backing, Xizhou should be very chaotic.

But now it seems that only the bandits have driven away, Xizhou City is too peaceful.

And the weird vault.

And these cannibals who appear inexplicably.

A few days later, it was another windy day.

The wind and sand are very strong.

A child and an adult came to Xizhou City with the wind and sand.

This child used Tubo words to tell the reason, saying that he was to hide from the wind and sand.

Li Ke saw that he was just a child and an adult, and without thinking too much, he let the two of them enter Xizhou City.

After relocating the two outsiders, Li Ke gave them food and water.
