The tragic death of the Taibao family made Haoqiu, the imperial capital of Qi Yanguo, extremely weird.

People are flustered, and even the number of pedestrians on the streets is greatly reduced.

The Shadow Chaser almost came out of the nest and laid a net in the imperial capital, bound to find out the killer who infiltrated Haoqiu.

…

It was lively outside, and inside Proton House was as usual, very quiet.

It seems that this is a world that is completely isolated, and everything outside has nothing to do with here.

For six days, Wang Xiu spent most of his time cultivating, day and night.

In his room, there are no more people watching, and his movement is very free.

Only outside the door, there were still two guards.

But the role of these two guards has changed from surveillance to real protection.

The hard work paid off, and in the early morning of the sixth day, that is, when something earth-shattering happened in Haoqiu City, Wang Xiu finally broke through the God Refining Realm and entered the first layer of the God Refining Realm.

Feeling the vigorous power in his body, a smile appeared on Wang Xiu's face.

At the first level of the God Refining Realm, his strength is no longer the same as before.

In just half a month, from an ordinary person without a trace of martial arts ability to the realm of refining gods, it will definitely make people's jaws drop when they say it.

It is not an exaggeration to say that such a talent is unprecedented.

It seems that the god-level entry editing system is really a good thing.

"Today is the day when the Assassins come to Haoqiu..."Wang Xiu thought to himself, "It's just that I don't know what kind of Assassins the Wuwei Kingdom will send." ”

He really wanted to try his skills with these assassins.

After all, the strength of cultivation can only be improved quickly by actual combat experience.

However, in order to cause less trouble, he can't expose himself now, and he still needs to continue to pretend to be crazy and stupid.

Anyway, he now has a lot of experience in pretending to be crazy and stupid.

The eyes, tone, and movements are all vivid.

There was a sudden commotion outside the door.

"Chief." It's the sound of breaking walls.

Qi Ying is here so soon?

Wang Xiu squinted his eyes slightly, pricked up his ears and listened.

"Where's the proton?"

"Back to the director, the proton has not come out of the room for the past few days. The subordinates went in every quarter of an hour to take a look, and there was no abnormality. ”

"Hmmm! Last night, the assassins infiltrated Haoqiu and slaughtered the Taibao Manmen, I guess they are likely to be attacking the west, the picture is Wang Xiu of the Proton Mansion, you must be extremely vigilant these days, outsiders are strictly forbidden to enter the Proton Mansion, where there are suspicious people who forcibly enter, they can be killed on the spot, first cut and then play. ”

"Yes."

Qi Ying entered the room, Wang Xiu was sitting cross-legged on the bed at the moment, holding two walnuts in his hand, playing with them, looking very interested.

"What people! How dare you trespass into the prince's mansion? Wang Xiu let out a loud shout, and took this opportunity to look up at Qi Ying, looking stupid.

"Presumptuous, how dare you go crazy in front of the director?" Breaking the wall said angrily.

"Hey, hey!" Wang Xiu continued to smirk, "Director? Are you the Director? Hehe, you are not the director, you are Lan Haijun, and you are Prince Ben's personal guard. ”

Qi Ying's face was cold, and he didn't want to deal with him at all.

【Ding! 】

The system prompt sounds.

[The system detects the keyword of the memory extraction entry, does it use it?] 】

"Use!"

Wang Xiu said silently in his heart.

Soon, it was as if there were slides playing in his head.

Twenty-six years ago.

Night, royal court.

"Qi Ying, Taibao Zhou Zheng strongly recommends the establishment of the second prince Haotian as the prince in front of me, and I also have this intention. It's just that a group of ministers strongly objected, saying that if the second prince was appointed as the prince, the ancestral system would be broken, and it would inevitably cause chaos in Qi Yanguo. How do you feel about being the Shadow Chaser Dragon Guard, and the person I trust the most? ”

"Your Majesty, who is appointed as the prince is related to the future of Qi Yan Kingdom, Your Majesty should follow your own wishes, and there is no need to be restrained by the ministers." Qi Ying said cautiously.

"Hao's talent and martial arts are stronger than Xie Yuan's, and his personality and temper are the most similar to me among the princes, and he is deeply liked by me. Speaking from my heart, I naturally wanted to make Haotian the prince, but unfortunately, Haotian was not born to the queen, and the prince was unwilling to make him the prince, which may indeed lead to internal strife in Qi Yan. ”

"And what does Your Majesty mean?" Qi Ying was a little confused about Qi Wugong's intentions.

"Qi Ying! Zhou Zheng has recently been wooing ministers everywhere, intending to collectively recommend Haotian to me at the court meeting, which is a headache for me. ”

"If Your Majesty wants to appoint the second prince as the prince, isn't Taibao's move exactly in line with Your Majesty's wishes?"

Qi Wugong shook his head, "I don't want to get entangled in this matter, although Haotian is stronger than Xie Yuan, but Xie Yuan is not useless, he is second only to Haotian among the princes, for the stability of Qi Yan Kingdom, and in order to give the queen an explanation, this prince can only be Xie Yuan, but in this way, Zhou Zheng will not give up." ”

Qi Ying was shocked in his heart, and faintly guessed what Qi Wugong meant, but still asked: "Weichen is stupid, please make it clear to Your Majesty." ”

"Alas!"

Qi Wugong suddenly sighed, "I have reminded Zhou Zheng that this matter is over and cannot be discussed again. It's a pity that Zhou Zheng is a dead eye, and the nine cows can't pull it back. It seems that the old saying is still good, but a dead person can't speak, and he won't win people over. ”

"I understand." Qi Ying said.

…

It was still that night.

Tai Po House.

Qi Ying led ten masked men to infiltrate.

There was no resistance, only massacre.

In the study, Qi Ying looked at Zhou Zheng.

"Taibao, I have always respected you as a person, but you are on the wrong side, you should have expected such an ending."

Zhou Zheng smiled bitterly, "Indeed, if you don't succeed, you will become benevolent, I have expected this ending, but I didn't expect it to come so quickly." ”

"I don't want to kill you, you can solve it yourself!" Qi Ying said.

"Thank you."

After Zhou Zheng finished speaking, he grabbed the sword from the table, unsheathed the long sword, and wiped it towards his neck without hesitation.

Blood bursts out.

Man is a knife, I am a fish and meat, what can I do?

Being able to solve it by himself, Qi Ying has already left him with dignity.

Seventy-four people in the whole house fell in pools of blood.

Only Zhou Zheng's youngest son Zhou Buchu was missing.

"Long guard, Taibao's four-year-old youngest son Zhou Buchu has not been seen."

After cleaning up the body, a guard came in and whispered to Qi Ying.

"Really? Do you look closely? ”

"I looked closely, but my subordinates didn't mention it to anyone."

Qi Ying nodded, "That's very good." ”

"The subordinates suspect that there is a dark room in the Taibao Mansion, and this week is not clumsy, it must have been hidden in the dark room."

"Darkroom?" Qi Ying smiled coldly, "The Taibao Mansion is full of eyeliner from the Shadow Chasing Division, but no one has ever reported to me that there is a dark room in the Taibao Mansion, perhaps, this week is not clumsy, I went elsewhere!" ”

As he said this, Qi Ying glanced behind Zhou Zheng's bookcase, intentionally or unintentionally, where the dark room was located.
