Hunting system, and I ended up becoming the empress!

When Guixiong New City was first built, there was nothing there.

Asking the imperial court for supplies alone would not quench one's thirst, so Xiao Zhixing set his sights on Beizhou and the governor of Beizhou, An Ziji.

This person kept claiming to be sick, and the other party didn't reply to a single word of the letter Xiao Zhixing handed over to him out of politeness.

She laughed angrily.

I originally thought that everyone in this era is a humble gentleman, and would at least maintain face for each other.

I didn't expect there would be someone more arrogant than her?

Then she won't be polite.

He selected three thousand soldiers and horses, fast horses and iron cavalry, and set out on the first morning, and arrived at Beiyuan County on the morning of the second day.

The three thousand cavalrymen ran with such a mighty momentum that the defenders of Beiyuan County were frightened out of their wits, thinking that the northern barbarians were attacking them.

"No, no, that's the Xiao family's military flag."

An old soldier hurriedly stopped the new soldier from striking the warning gong, "Quick, go and report to the governor and the county magistrate."

When people got closer, the city guards were already waiting at the city gate.

His eyes moved from the flag of the Xiao family army to the majestic girl in white armor leading the way.

"Yes, it's Little Prince Xiao?! Go and tell the county governor that Little Prince Xiao is here in person."

Oh my god, this person actually came to Beiyuan County? And he came with such a fierce force, why did he feel his calves trembling?

Xiao Zhixing slowed down a bit and led his men directly into Beiyuan County.

The city gate guards didn't dare to stop him.

As for why they were so afraid, it was not because Xiao Zhixing’s reputation for arrogance and domineering was so loud.

Rather, it is a kind of awe for the person who can defeat the Northern Barbarian Cavalry.

How could ordinary people not be scared of a young general who has killed people like crazy?

"Beiyuan County is the capital of a prefecture, how could it be so desolate?"

In broad daylight, the streets were deserted, shops were sparsely populated, the common people looked pale and thin, and beggars and homeless children could be seen everywhere.

And most of them are elderly people, children and women, and there are few strong men.

The more Xiao Zhixing looked, the more he felt something was wrong.

Beiyuan County was not ravaged by the northern barbarians, nor was there large-scale conscription or labor service.

How could a young and strong man disappear inexplicably?

"Let's go to the County Magistrate's Mansion and take a look."

A group of people were riding horses on the street, and the people in the county town looked indifferent. They just stayed away from them in fear and didn't even dare to complain.

Seeing the county governor's mansion, Xiao Zhixing waved his hand and said, "Surround the front and back."

Xiao Dong went to arrange it personally.

The gate of the county magistrate's mansion was tightly closed, and despite such a big commotion, no one even came out to check.

So weird.

"Bash the door."

Boom, boom, boom—

The door opens.

“Ahhhhhh…” The one who screamed was none other than Bai Su who was watching the live broadcast.

【Ahhhh my god, ahhh my life! 】

[Oh my god, I was sent away directly! ]

【Oh My God! ! 】

Xiao Zhixing's eyebrows and eyes were dark.

The scene was full of blood, and many people in the mansion were lying in a pool of blood. The scene was too cruel and bloody.

"Uncle Dong, go check if there are any survivors."

She leapt onto the highest roof and scanned the area.

"In the east, the man in gray!" Bai Feng reminded.

Xiao Zhixing shot over, his Qi sinking into his Dantian, "Where are you escaping to?"

He chased the man in gray like a phantom, drawing his bow and shooting an arrow at the same time.

sieve!

The opponent dodged with a jump and ran away at an accelerated speed.

Yingji and Baimei surrounded each other from another direction.

The man in gray ran towards the residential area.

Xiao Zhixing sneered. He originally wanted to keep him alive, but now that’s the case.

Three arrows in a row!

Whoosh whoosh—

As her skills improve, she can kill top-notch heavenly masters with a three-arrow attack at full strength.

"what!"

The man in gray fell from the sky and broke many roof tiles.

Xiao Zhixing jumped over and tried to press acupoints, but he was too late. The man had already bitten himself with poison.

Ying Er looked over the body, "My young prince, this is a dead warrior, a ground-level master, there is no mark on this person."

Generally, organizations will have a label.

There is no so-called martial arts world in Dasheng, but some organizations still exist, such as killer organizations, intelligence organizations, and water transport organizations.

Bai Mei's nose twitched, "This person has a unique smell."

Xiao Zhixing looked unhappy. "Take the body back and dissect it bit by bit. Find the clues for me."

Not only did they murder an imperial official in broad daylight, but they also wiped out the entire family, and they did it right in front of her.

It was obvious that they knew she was coming and killed the person before she could.

It's simply a provocation to her!

After returning to the county magistrate's mansion, Qi Danhe and his men stood at the door in a daze.

Such a tragic incident of annihilation of an entire family happened right under his nose.

For a moment, the highest military commander of the Northern State felt like his head was about to explode.

The one who died was his former colleague, the county magistrate.

This is the first time since the founding of the Dasheng Dynasty.

It's simply horrifying.

"General Qi, let's go in and take a look. What shocking secret could have caused them to do such a cruel thing?"

Even three-year-old children were not spared.

He was so cruel and ruthless that even Xiao Zhixing had to admit he was inferior to him.

Xiao's army surrounded the county governor's mansion, and not even a fly could fly out.

Yingji and Shiramei searched the mansion personally.

"Young Prince, we have discovered something." Ying Er reported, and immediately took her and Qi Danhe to the backyard.

Bai Mei stood in front of a rockery and said, "My young prince, there is a secret room underground. We have already found out the hidden weapons and mechanisms."

Xiao Zhixing did not hesitate and went down the long stairs following Ying Er's torch.

Qi Danhe followed behind him in a daze, and the next moment he exclaimed, "Jinshan?!!!"

Isn’t it Jinshan?

This underground dark room was filled with gold, and in the middle was a pile of gold bars several people tall.

It is estimated that there are tens of thousands of taels of gold, and the scene is very tempting.

"It's not just gold, there's also iron ore."

Xiao Zhixing opened the wooden box in the corner, and inside were pieces of refined iron ore.

No wonder there are so few young and strong people in Beiyuan County.

How much labor force was used to secretly produce minerals?

Qi Danhe's face turned dark and ugly at this time. Iron ore represents weapons.

It's almost like rebellion!

Xiao Zhixing stared at him, not missing any expression on his face.

Qi Danhe came back to his senses with a start, no longer caring about his dignity, and knelt down, "Young Prince! I really don't know!"

Xiao Zhixing snorted coldly and walked away, "You don't know? You are the governor of the state, and such a big thing happened right under your nose, and you don't know about it?"

"One failure to monitor properly is enough for His Majesty to take off your head."

She suspected he was involved.

Qi Danhe climbed up and chased after him, sweating profusely, miserable and desperate, "I admit that I failed to monitor properly, but I really did not participate in this matter, young prince, please believe me!"

Back to the backyard garden.

Qi Danhe knelt down again and kowtowed vigorously, "Please save me, my young master. Qi Danhe will obey you in the future!"

Xiao Zhixing looked at him and kowtowed a few times before saying calmly, "Stop kowtow. Find the location of the mine first. I'm worried that if we go too late, the people who were abducted will also be killed."

Qi Danhe got up, wiped his tears and sweat, and said, "My subordinates will obey the orders of the young prince."

Only by getting to the bottom of the matter can he clear himself of suspicion, so he is a perfect match.

[This is very strange, who is it? They are preparing for a rebellion. Think about it, has anyone in Yunping rebelled in the past 20 years?]

【The historical records are missing, so we can’t find it for sure.】

[However, in the last few years of the Yin Dynasty, many people were ready to make a move. Could this be a problem left over from that time? ]

[No, think about it, mining a mine requires huge manpower and material resources, and there is also ore refining. Then the gold and iron ore need to be transported away, and finally refined into weapons. There are too many people involved in this process, but no one has discovered any abnormalities for so many years.]

[So, the person behind this is very powerful and can cover the sky with one hand. ]

[Based on my experience of reading novels, it must be a certain boss or a certain family. ]

[We inferred from some of the later records, hiss——]

[Forget it, it will be an asterisk anyway, let's just wait and see, the little prince will definitely be able to find it. ]

Xiao Zhixing curled her lips. She was not sure and did not know the other party's tactics. But you have confidence in me.
