Zhuque County.

Xiao Yishan is very troubled now.

He, Xiao Yishan, had three sons, three daughters, a wife and two concubines. Overall, the family was quite prosperous.

However, recently, several sons and daughters have not been very obedient.

Although, it's true that they are all sectarian figures.

But the relationship between father and son, father and daughter, cannot be changed.

After all, he is the head of the family, what need to be hidden from him?

The children all went out early and came back late mysteriously, not knowing what they were doing.

This time, he must stop his youngest son and ask them what they are doing.

He was standing at the door when he saw his youngest son Xiao Boshan sneaking into the house from outside, but he happened to be stopped by him.

Of course, this was not a coincidence, but because he had prepared and planned for today.

"Xiao Boshan, come here."

Xiao Yishan waved his sleeves and said in a cold voice.

Xiao Boshan had no choice but to follow his father into the study.

The Xiao family was originally from the Kingdom of Korea. Even today, their family still retains many rules from the Kingdom of Korea.

Among them is a rule that younger members of the family must not disobey their elders.

Of course, these rules are only on the surface, and you can do whatever you want in private.

"Father, what do you want from me? I'm still busy here."

The younger son Xiao Boshan looked depressed.

"What are you busy with? Recently you have learned to do things without telling me."

"At home, I am your father and elder."

"My status within the church is also higher than yours."

"Is there anything you need to hide from me?"

Xiao Yishan dislikes this feeling of being out of control. He likes to have everything in his own hands.

There are so many things in the world. If you want to control everything, even the emperor can't do it. Naturally, Xiao Yishan can't do it either.

However, there is still no problem in controlling this three-thirds of an acre of land at home.

"Father, I didn't mean to hide it from you, but His Majesty the Dharma King didn't let us talk." Xiao Boshan looked embarrassed.

"Okay, let's go."

Xiao Yishan's original enthusiasm to raise an army to investigate the crime suddenly dissipated.

Since it was the Dharma King who gave the order, how could he still embarrass his own son?

However, he could not know the result, but an inexplicable resentment suddenly arose in his heart.

The Dharmaraja would rather find his son than him. This is prejudice!

Could it be that I am not as good as my son?

…

Zi Yan stood in front of a mountain col.

She has been in Zhuque County for a while.

Many affairs in Zhuque County are handled in the same way.

Now, there are only two most important things left.

One thing is to explore why so many master warriors gather in Zhuque County.

Another thing is to raise food, grass, equipment, etc. for the army.

In fact, ordinary weapons and equipment do not need to be raised.

The most important thing is the need for siege equipment.

Because there are many strong cities in Bozhou. If you want to attack the cities, you can't do it without siege equipment.

The bulk of the equipment collection is currently being handled by Sixiang City, with Zhuque, Xuanwu, Qinglong, and Baihu counties each taking on part of the task.

Of course, Zhuque County has the lightest task here. After all, Zhuque County is different from other places. After major changes occurred, Zhuque County suffered great losses. Everything in the county government's warehouse is clean.

The mouse is running away.

"Sir, my subordinates have found out that the Xiao family is planning a sacrifice."

The person standing next to Zi Yan and speaking was Master Shen Xing.

After Zi Yan came to Zhuque County, she met Mi Qi and Ouyang Heng.

Except for Luo Fengtang who still stayed in Zhuque County, Mi Qi, Ouyang Heng, Ru Yan and others all returned to Sixiang City, and Mi Qi recommended Master Shen Xing to Zi Yan.

The reason why Mian Cheng is not recommended is because Mian Cheng is often a bit old-fashioned and accepts death.

Mian Cheng can become a famous catcher, but he cannot become a secret agent.

Master Shen Xing is different.

His martial arts skills are not as good as Mian Cheng's, but he is alert and good at hiding himself. Previously, he did an outstanding job as Mian Cheng's assistant.

Zi Yan transferred Shen Xingshi to his subordinates and assigned him the task of monitoring and investigating the Xiao family.

The Xiao family, whose ancestors came from Goryeo, is very mysterious. The important members of their family rarely have contact with outsiders, so it is not easy to find out about the Xiao family.

Of course, if it was easy, Zi Yan would not call Master Shen Xing, but just find a hidden guard to do the work.

"Planning a sacrifice? Please explain in detail." Zi Yan said.

"The head of the Xiao family, Xiao Yishan, has a total of six children, three sons and three daughters. This time they secretly set up an altar in the nearby Zhuque Mountain for the purpose of holding a sacrifice."

"I don't know exactly what they are worshiping. I inferred from the items they purchased in batches. I also found out their route map to Zhuque Mountain, but in the end I still couldn't find out everything. "

Master Shen Xing felt a little guilty.

He has tried his best, but those people in the Xiao family have a strong sense of prevention and are extremely cautious in doing things. It is difficult for him to follow them, let alone truly understand their movements and intentions.

"Don't blame yourself, you just need to know what they are doing."

Zi Yan put her hands in her sleeves.

Zi Yan is still very satisfied, at least now she knows that the Xiao family is going to perform sacrifices, which is already very important information.

"You continue to monitor the movements of the Xiao family."

"Here."

After Master Shen Xing left, a figure walked out from the side.

Zi Yan raised her eyebrows and said, "Brother Luo, shall we go tonight?"

Luo Fengtang smiled slightly and said: "Go, just go tonight."

"What if it's a trap set by them?" Zi Yan frowned.

"Traps are just traps. Don't be afraid. Zhuque County belongs to Daqi. In Zhuque Mountain, they can't lay many powerful traps in a short period of time." Luo Fengtang was full of confidence.

"Okay, let's leave tonight and I'll go get ready." Zi Yan agreed.

Now that Luo Fengtang is ready, she can just follow him, and she doesn't need to worry about anything else.

night.

A light rain fell.

Luo Fengtang and Ziyan were wearing black raincoats and were flying quickly through the night.

"Brother Luo, are we just the two of us? Are there too few people?"

Zi Yan originally thought that Luo Fengtang said he was ready and brought a lot of people to kill them together, but it turned out that it was just the two of them, which was a bit risky.

"Don't be afraid. I'll go up by myself later and you'll be there to support me." Luo Fengtang said calmly.

"Okay." Zi Yan nodded.

She cannot be as confident as Luo Fengtang.

Luo Fengtang wears gold silk armor, carries firearms, and a sword that can cut iron like clay. He also has the strength of a grandmaster. He can come and go from ordinary traps with ease.
