It was prosperous for eighteen years.
Dajue County.
Summer Willow Street.
There was chaos in the streets.
There were panicked passers-by and screaming vendors everywhere.
From time to time, long tables and stalls were knocked over, and steamed buns and vegetables rolled to the ground.
Cries of killing could be heard faintly in the distance, occasionally mixed with the sounds of weapons clashing.
When Su Mo opened his eyes, what he saw was this chaotic scene.
However, he didn't pay too much attention to it and instead focused on the small fan in his hand.
Followed by a slender and weak right hand.
A white and pure white wrist.
And extremely exaggerated pectoralis major muscles.
"Okay, finally it's my turn."
When Su Mo saw Nangong Yuanxiao in female form earlier, he thought that this day might happen to him too.
I didn't expect it to come true so quickly.
Fortunately, this time she was wearing a girl from a rich family, so her appearance was not too embarrassing.
Su Mo was about to observe carefully and take a serious physiological lesson.
Suddenly, an eyeless yelling came from the distance:
"Get out of the way! Get out of the way!"
"Anyone who doesn't want to die, get off your horse and get out of here!"
Along with a burst of angry shouting, a tall horse rushed towards him quickly.
The big man on the horse was holding a long whip, with a ferocious expression mixed with a hint of panic, and he was swinging his whip wildly at the crowded crowd in front, preparing to carve a way out.
Several screams were heard from time to time, and there was a bloody whip mark on the back of the whip. The strength of the big man was obviously extraordinary.
He saw a woman holding a baby fall on the road, and iron hooves were about to trample her over.
Su Mo walked forward lightly and grabbed the horse's hoof.
Both men and horses raised their hands with one hand and fell to the ground.
Amidst the loud rumbling sound, there was silence all around.
Countless fleeing people were stunned on the spot when they saw this scene.
The scene was extremely quiet for a while, and the only thing left was the painful cry of the big man falling to the ground.
The big man stood up staggeringly, and when he looked at Su Mo, his eyes were full of shock and anger.
It seems completely unimaginable that a mere 28-year-old girl could have such strong arm strength.
At this time, Su Mo recognized him.
The man in front of him was clearly Deputy Gang Leader Sun, who had led a team to massacre the village not long ago.
Seeing his panicked look, Su Mo asked calmly:
"Why is Deputy Gang Leader Sun so panicked?"
Upon hearing Su Mo's inquiry, Deputy Gang Leader Sun's pupils shrank instantly.
He looked at Su Mo, swallowed, raked his head and said:
"As the demon slayer of the imperial court, you actually attack ordinary people. What crime do you deserve?!"
The people around him were relieved when they heard this.
That's right, only the demon slayers of the imperial court can possess such terrifying strength at such an age.
However, in order to restrain the demon exterminators, the imperial court only allowed them to deal with monsters and evil cultivators. They were strictly prohibited from harming ordinary people. Violators would be punished by one level.
For a moment, the onlookers looked at Su Mo with worries in their eyes.
Su Mo looked at Deputy Gang Leader Sun with a hint of lust in his eyes.
Tilted his head.
Then he crushed his right leg with his foot.
The crisp sound of bone shattering spread throughout the street and reached the ears of countless people.
After a moment, Deputy Gang Leader Sun seemed to have come to his senses and suddenly burst into a shrill scream.
"How dare you step on my leg?!!"
"Aren't you afraid of punishment from the court?!!!"
Deputy Gang Leader Sun's eyes were blood red, he stared at Su Mo and shouted hoarsely.
"Crunch."
What responded to him was another clear sound of leg bones cracking.
Deputy Gang Leader Sun was in extreme pain, twitching all over and unable to speak.
Su Mo replied calmly:
"I ask, you answer, and one hand makes the wrong answer."
It was obviously a thin and weak voice, but in Deputy Gang Leader Sun's ears it was like a strange reminder.
Even though he was suffering from unprecedented pain, he had no choice but to cheer up and listen to the other party's inquiry.
"What year is this?"
Su Mo asked the first question.
"Eighteen years of prosperity."
Deputy Gang Leader Sun answered immediately, but the expression on his face was a little strange.
A flash of understanding flashed across Su Mo's eyes, and then he asked:
"Why are you running away?"
Deputy Gang Leader Sun hesitated.
Su Mo raised his 35-yard feet.
"I'm taking refuge!"
Deputy Gang Leader Sun looked at the foot, his scalp felt numb, and he hurriedly replied.
"What refuge?"
"It's hard to destroy the gang!"
"Who did it?"
"Government?"
"Why?"
Deputy Gang Leader Sun hesitated.
Meeting Su Mo's calm eyes, he gritted his teeth and replied:
"Because of the demon chaos."
"Before, there were monster riots in four villages outside the county. In order to prevent the county from being harmed, Luo Yuanjia, the magistrate of Dajue County, contacted us and secretly sent people to kill the villagers and the monsters."
Hearing this, the field was instantly in an uproar.
Countless people were shocked to the extreme:
"Didn't you say that all those villagers were killed by monsters?!"
"I already felt something was wrong when I stepped on the horse. How could the monster be staring at the vicinity of our county every time?!"
"What do you mean it's for the county? It's just for my own black hat! ***Luo Yuanjia, how can he do such a crazy thing!"
"Brother and sister! You died so miserably!!"
The people were filled with indignation and wished they could go up and beat Deputy Gang Leader Sun to death on the spot.
Su Mo frowned slightly, and the angry people around him changed their expressions. They remained silent and did not dare to step forward.
He stared at Deputy Gang Leader Sun expressionlessly, and then asked:
"Since you have slaughtered the village, and the culprit is still the county magistrate, why are you still being hunted by the government now?"
"The ones who are chasing us are not the officials of Dajue County, but the guards and soldiers of Hanshan County."
Deputy Gang Leader Sun quickly replied:
"When we massacred the village last time, someone accidentally escaped and went to the county to complain, which made the matter bigger.
The county guard got the evidence and sent someone down, but Luo Yuanjia ran away on the spot.
We received the news late, and now we are seizing the opportunity to escape.
No one can escape any later! "
Listening to the shouts of death approaching quickly in the distance, Su Mo then asked:
"Then do you know where Zhang Rulong went?"
"Zhang Rulong?"
Deputy gang leader Sun was suddenly startled.
"That's Liu Fugui."
"have no idea."
Deputy Gang Leader Sun shook his head:
"Who stares at others while running away?
And the scene was so chaotic, maybe he had been killed by the county guards' soldiers long ago. "
Su Mo raised his eyebrows slightly.
Zhang Rulong lived to be seventy-two, so it was naturally impossible for him to be killed here.
But the current chaos is obviously related to his regret.
If you don't find someone in time, you may miss the opportunity to get rid of regrets.
Su Mo was thinking about whether to search everywhere.
Suddenly, a group of soldiers hurried forward.
"That's Sun Lie, Deputy Gang Leader Sun of the Money Gang, take him down!"
Under the command of the leading general, many soldiers stepped forward and captured Sun Lie.
Su Mo looked at the leading black-armored general and asked in a deep voice:
"Dare I ask this general, can you
Ever caught a gang member named Liu Fugui? "
The long-bearded black-armored general glanced at him and replied stiffly:
"This is a case secret, not something you can know."
Su Mo sighed and replied:
"Can you please not take up my time?"
The black-armored general frowned, not knowing why.
The next second, huge power suddenly erupted from Su Mo like a wave.
The black-armored general, including the surrounding soldiers, all knelt on the ground on the spot.
The ordinary people watching outside were not affected at all.
Seeing this scene, everyone was extremely shocked for a moment.
The black-armored general was frightened and furious, and struggled hard.
He is not a real ordinary person, but a fifth-level cultivator.
But at this moment, no matter how hard he tried to explode, all his strength was trapped within his body and could not be leaked at all.
Realizing that the other party might be far stronger than him, the black-armored general finally changed his expression and asked sternly:
"Who are you? Do you know the consequences of defying the imperial court?!"
Su Mo calmly replied:
"I don't mean to offend you, but right now I need to know the answers to some questions."
The black-armored general said harshly:
"Don't even think about getting any information from me! I'm just a young general. When the adults above come over, let's see how you escape?"
"Is it?"
Su Mo said, looking behind him.
There was a group of soldiers there rushing towards this side very quickly.
There was a black-robed Taoist among them.
On the black robe was written the word "exclude" in ancient seal script.
When the Taoist saw him, he was about to speak.
In the next second, all the weapons of the soldiers, including the whisk in his hand, were taken off their hands, flying into the sky and hanging upside down.
Seeing this extremely shocking scene, the ancient long street was silent for a while, and everyone in the place was stunned.
Su Mo looked at the black-robed Taoist and said calmly:
"I'll ask you an answer."
The black-robed Taoist was sweating profusely, so he claimed that it was true and did not dare to overstep it in the slightest.
Immediately, Su Mo heard another version of the answer from the demon slayer named Ji Chang.
"The magistrate of Dajue County, Luo Yuanjia, is actually a sixth-grade demon?"
"exactly!"
Ji Chang quickly added:
"Its body is an extremely rare fox that confuses the heart. It has the ability to confuse others, but its own strength is extremely weak. The sixth grade is equivalent to the third grade at most.
According to our investigation, it entered Luo Yuanjia's mansion about three years ago and pretended to be his concubine.
At first, it was frightened by the exorcist's annual hunting patrol, so it didn't dare to do too much, and just secretly fancied and preyed on a few beggars and lazy people.
But as its strength increases, its appetite becomes increasingly difficult to satisfy.
Later, it secretly bewitched Luo Yuanjia, using the demon chaos as an excuse, and ordered money to help massacre the village.
And then sneaked in to devour all the fresh corpses, disguised as a scene of monsters causing chaos.
Recently, he even devoured Luo Yuanjia and completely replaced him, issuing orders as he pleased.
Unexpectedly, when we came here after collecting evidence, it sensed the crisis in advance and had already escaped.
We have now spread our manpower to hunt down. Once we receive the news and determine the location, we can immediately launch a siege! "
Su Mo nodded slightly, finally understanding the reason.
According to Ji Chang's opinion, the strength of the sixth-level Confused Heart Fox is at most equivalent to that of a third-level practitioner.
Only its illusion ability is extremely powerful, and its performance is so lifelike that even the demon slayer has to use corresponding magic weapons to detect it.
It looks like he has maxed out his illusion talent.
I don’t know what the monsters in later generations will look like after they take form.
No the same is true.
Then he thought about the green bamboo he kept at home.
The toxin is indeed very powerful and the speed is relatively fast. Other than that, he is not very good at anything else. He can be considered a partial player.
But it's more than enough for killing people.
On the other hand, the confused fox is extremely cautious by nature. He is obviously at the sixth level, and he also specializes in using money to help people borrow knives to kill people.
I think Zhang Rulong's regret must be related to this confusing fox.
Realizing the problem this time, Su Mo no longer hesitated, asked Ji Chang for a way to contact him, and also ran out to find Luo Yuanjia's whereabouts.
As long as Luo Yuanjia is killed, the illusion here should be broken immediately.
Su Mo no longer hesitated, and with a thought, his elegant and graceful figure immediately disappeared in front of everyone.
On a lonely road outside the city.
A luxuriously decorated carriage was rushing forward under the driving of the driver.
The driver's whip kept beating the maroon horse, as if he still disliked it for not running fast enough.
And from behind, there was a faint sound of rapid hooves.
Immediately, an arrow came through the air carrying Li Xiao.
The coachman ducked aside in a well-trained manner.
The sharp arrow suddenly hit the horse's leg.
The horse neighed, stumbled, and fell to the side of the road.
The luxury car being dragged behind him also crashed to the ground.
Many ingots and jewelry were scattered in the collapsed carriage.
The driver in front had half of his leg under the car and was struggling to get up.
An arrow suddenly shot out, piercing his head on the spot.
The driver opened his eyes angrily and fell to the ground unwillingly.
Zhang Rulong put away his long bow and stepped off the horse with a gloomy expression.
He walked nearby and walked around the car to the front.
But he didn't get close. Instead, he drew the long bow in his hand and pointed at the inside of the carriage:
"come out!"
Upon hearing this reprimand, a cowardly and panicked cry immediately came from inside:
"My hero, have mercy on me, my hero, have mercy on me!"
As he spoke, a rich figure opened the door curtain, his big eyes full of panic:
"As long as your hero is willing to spare me, you can use the treasures in this car as you wish!"
"Is it your treasure I want?!"
Zhang Rulong said ferociously:
"You killed so many people! You stained my hands with the blood of so many innocent people! You even made me wanted by the government! If I don't kill you today, it's hard to eliminate the hatred in my heart!
Come and die! "
Zhang Rulong suddenly shot out an arrow.
However, that extremely sharp arrow was caught lightly by Luo Yuanjia with two fingers.
Zhang Rulong was stunned.
Luo Yuanjia sighed:
"I've obviously kneeled down to beg for mercy, why don't you let me go?"
As he finished speaking, his mouth and nose slowly elongated and bulged, and his entire head turned into a fox shape.
"You...you are a monster?!"
Zhang Rulong was shocked to the extreme.
There was a smile in the confused heart fox's eyes:
“Why do you think I let the Money Gang kill people?
Isn't it normal for monsters to eat people?
And really speaking, the old scalper has to be blamed for all this.
If it hadn't been for that day when I was shopping idle and that old scalper saw through my identity at a glance.
I won’t let you massacre the village with murderous intent.
This kind of natural enemy, especially at such a close distance, must not be allowed to live in this world! "
When Confused Heart Fox said this, he looked at Zhang Rulong again and said with a sarcastic smile:
"I didn't expect that you were so efficient at your job that I became greedy and asked you to massacre the village several times.
After swallowing it like this, I was able to reach the sixth level so quickly. I have to thank you all.
That's it. "
Zhang Rulong's face was full of shock and regret.
"As a thank you, let me kill you with my own hands."
The confused fox took the arrow and shot it out with lightning speed, making it impossible to avoid.
However, at this moment, a flash of lightning fell out of thin air, shattering the arrow.
At the end of the road, a Taoist man wearing a green robe and a short bun walked slowly forward.
