Chapter 13: Planting Demons

"Knock, knock, knock, knock......"

The beautiful sound of guzheng music formed ripples and reached the ears of everyone present.

"This guzheng sound?" Li Rui tightened his hundred battle knives, and his brows suddenly furrowed.

The west of the city has become a terrifying place, no one dares to come during the day, and no one dares to come at night, at this time there was an inexplicable sound of the zither, Li Rui thought of Ma Zhikang.

The horse bandits in Weilong Mountain are already difficult enough, and with Ma Zhikang, it will become even more chaotic here.

"It's so beautiful!"

"It's wonderful!"

“......”

The faces of the horse bandits of Weilong Mountain suddenly showed a look of pleasure, as if they were enjoying the most wonderful things in the world.

And those horse bandits, who were running wildly with siege ladders, suddenly stood in place, they were motionless, and their faces were also showing a look of pleasure.

The sound of the guzheng reached Cao Ang's ears, and his spirit was in a trance, and the whole person was lost in the music.

Beauty, Money, Power......

These seductive things appeared in Cao Ang's mind one by one.

"That's not right!" Cao Ang suddenly shouted, "cover their ears." ”

The sound of this guzheng is very weird, it can control people's minds, and as a second-rate powerhouse, he is almost controlled.

However, Cao Ang's shout was too late, and he saw that some of the horse bandits' eyes narrowed slightly, and they were already immersed in the sound of the zither.

"Big brother, this guzheng sound is very evil, and it can actually deceive people's hearts. Chu Juncheng rode to Cao Ang's side.

"It is rumored that the Demon Sect in the Central Plains has many mysterious methods, could this be the means of the Demon Sect?"

"Demon Sect?" Cao Ang shook his head, "No, a lot of strange things have happened in Qiyang City in the past few days, and I guess there is a high probability that there are monsters here." ”

"Monsters?" Chu Juncheng was stunned, "There are few monsters in the north, but it's not nothing, if it's really a monster, then big brother, this is an opportunity, kill the monster, and the martial arts of you and me will go further." ”

"Hmm!" Cao Ang nodded, "The top priority now is to kill this monster, otherwise the brothers will all die here." ”

Chu Juncheng looked around, only to see a group of horse bandits in Weilong Mountain, some of them were like puppets, standing on the spot, and some were covering their ears tightly, where could they attack Qiyang City.

"How did the brothers become like this?" Chu Juncheng's eyes were full of incredulity.

There are as many as one or two hundred horse bandits who are lost in the sound of the zither, and the rest of them who have not lost their hearts are also fighting against the sound of the zither with difficulty.

"This monster may not be an ordinary monster. Cao Ang's eyes were solemn.

"Central Plains Demon Sect?" At the head of the city, the sound of the conversation between the two reached Li Rui's ears, and his gaze looked into the distance.

I saw that thousands of meters away, a blood-red sedan chair appeared, which was carried by four red-clothed sedan chair men, and quickly came towards Qiyang City.

And the sound of the guzheng came from the blood-red sedan chair.

"That's?" Li Rui wondered, "Isn't it Ma Zhikang?

"Big brother, look. Chu Juncheng also saw the red sedan chair.

The sound of the guzheng got closer and closer, and the group of horse bandits suddenly changed, and those horse bandits who were like puppets all went towards the red sedan chair.

"Poof!"

The huge siege ladder was thrown on the ground, and the horse bandits carrying the siege ladder also turned around and walked towards the red sedan chair.

"Oh no, these brothers are all controlled by the sound of the zither, and it is likely that there is a monster in that red sedan chair, and we must kill him immediately. Cao Ang pulled the reins of the horse and rushed towards the red sedan chair.

"Drive!"

Chu Juncheng also pulled the reins and galloped up.

Not far away, the four palanquin drivers had weird smiles on their faces, like clowns, and the sedan chairs trembled up and down.

"Knock knock ......" bursts of rapid guzheng sounds came into the air from the sedan chair, forming a circle of invisible ripples.

Immediately, "Boom, boom, boom....."

The dense saber was detached from the scabbard, and the tip of the knife had a cold silver glow, and the horse bandits who were under control actually pulled out the sabers in their hands.

"桀, 桀, 桀, 桀....."

The group of horse bandits seemed to be evil, and their faces also changed into clown smiles, with an evil smile in their mouths, and the saber was already raised in their hands, and suddenly slashed at those horse bandits who had not lost themselves, and the white blade slashed into the muscles, bringing up streams of blood.

For a while, it was full of slashing sounds and screams.

"What, second brother, this is a kind of demon. Cao Ang shouted.

Cao Ang immediately decided, "The monster is strong, let's withdraw." At the same time he turned his horse's head, and the horse galloped.

The fratricidal killing of the horse bandits reminded Cao Ang of one thing, some powerful monsters can confuse people's hearts, plant magic in people's hearts, and become puppets of monsters.

These horse bandits who have lost themselves have been planted with magic intent, and it is conceivable that the monster is also extremely powerful.

Moreover, hundreds of horse bandits wielding sabers, coupled with the galloping of horses, were like an armored car on a rampage, Cao Ang and Chu Juncheng were never willing to face so many horse bandits.

In this case, Cao Ang decisively chose to escape.

"Seed Demon!" Chu Juncheng's face changed violently, and with a "drive", Chu Juncheng clamped the horse's belly, and the horse galloped.

Those horse bandits who had not become puppets, as soon as they saw Cao Ang and Chu Juncheng fleeing, they also immediately rushed out of the encirclement and left with Cao Ang.

The horses galloped, turned into small black dots, and finally disappeared in the distance where heaven and earth intersected.

"Planting demons?" At the head of the city, Li Rui also heard Cao Ang's loud shouts.

After the horse bandits in Weilong Mountain fled, those puppet horse bandits stopped wielding their sabers, and they all stopped moving.

When Li Rui looked at them, he saw that their faces were full of weird smiles, like clowns' smiles.

"In this sedan chair is definitely Ma Zhikang. Li Rui looked at the red sedan chair from afar.

"Knock, knock, knock....."

The sound of a guzheng rang out.

The puppet bandits suddenly moved, and they walked towards the palanquin.

The sound of the guzheng sounded one after another, and the four red-clothed sedan chairmen suddenly stopped, and the sedan chair no longer trembled.

A breeze blew, and the curtain in front of the sedan chair was blown by the wind.

I saw that in the sedan chair, Ma Zhikang was holding a woman in red, the woman was sitting cross-legged in the sedan chair, with a zither on her knees, her slender fingers were constantly flicking, and the sound of the zither came out.

"It's really Ma Zhikang. Li Rui's eyes narrowed, and the woman also had a weird smile on her face, thinking that she was also a demon.

"Ma Zhikang actually has such an ability, no wonder Xicheng will become a no-man's land. Li Rui held the Hundred Battle Knife, he was ready to face Ma Zhikang.

"Boom!"

Suddenly, a crisp note sounded in the sedan chair, and then it stopped ringing.

The corners of Ma Zhikang's mouth rose slightly, and a wicked smile appeared on his face, "Let's go!"

The voice came out lightly, and then the four sedan chair drivers turned the sedan body.

Behind the sedan chair, hundreds of horse bandits riding horses slowly followed, only to see the sedan chair trembling slightly up and down, Ma Zhikang actually took these horse bandits away.

"Gone?" Li Rui let out a breath, and his nervous heart relaxed.

As for why Ma Zhikang didn't attack Qiyang City, Li Rui didn't think about it anymore, he had an important thing to do now.

···········

In Qiyang City, Li Rui was standing on a street at this time, and countless people were running around him, and the street looked very messy.

"The arrival of the horse bandits in Weilong Mountain has actually made Qiyang City look like this. Li Rui looked at the people who were running.

Some of these people were pulling women and children, some were carrying luggage, and some were wearing disheveled hair, like refugees, and it was clear at a glance that these people were preparing to flee for their lives.

"It is necessary to stabilize order in the city as soon as possible. With a "whoosh", Li Rui shot forward.

This is the important thing that Li Rui thought of.

"Shen San. Li Rui came to a person's side, only to see that this person was wearing a green suit, obviously a catcher in the county office.

Shen San looked back, and hurriedly said respectfully: "Brother Rui." ”

Da Zhao respected force, and everyone was accustomed to surrendering to powerful people.

And Li Rui's killing of Zheng Dingxing with one blow left a deep impact on Shen San's heart.

Moreover, Li Rui has been a prodigy since he was a child, such a person with strong strength in both civil and military affairs, Shen San is still very convinced.

"Shen San, are you trying to run for your life?" Li Rui asked, only to see a package hanging from Shen San's shoulder, which was bulging.

Shen San's eyes were full of fear, "Brother Rui, the horse bandits from Weilong Mountain have gone to the west of the city, at this time, if you don't run away, you won't be able to escape later." ”

"It's okay. Li Rui smiled, "Shen San, the gate in the west of the city has been closed by me, and the horse bandits in Weilong Mountain have also withdrawn, so you don't have to flee for your life." ”

Li Rui knew what Shen San was worried about, the west city gate was wide open, and the people of Weilong Mountain could easily enter Qiyang City.

"The gate is closed, and the people of Weilong Mountain have withdrawn?" Shen San was stunned, he looked at Li Rui, and he didn't want to believe it.

But Shen San suddenly remembered that Li Rui was indeed going to the west of the city, and he was chasing the three sides of the town to the west of the city.

Shen San's eyes froze, "Brother Rui, the horse bandits from Weilong Mountain have really withdrawn?"

"Really withdrew. Li Rui nodded, "After I killed the three sides of the town, I quickly closed the city gate, and then a strange thing happened, I don't know what happened, those Weilong Mountain horse bandits actually killed each other······"

Li Rui told Shen San what happened in the west of the city, and told him about the monster, but there were some things he hidden.

"Monsters?" Shen San was startled, a legend appeared in his mind, according to legend, outside the northern land, there were man-eating monsters, "No wonder the people in Mazhuang and the west of the city have disappeared, it turns out that the monsters are doing the trick." ”

"Hmm. Li Rui nodded, "This monster is even more powerful than the horse bandits in Weilong Mountain." ”

"Then, Brother Rui, what should we do?" Shen San was very shocked in his heart, he no longer had an opinion.

Looking at the panicked crowd, Li Rui said solemnly: "Shen San, let's not think about the matter of monsters for now, now we have to quickly stabilize the order of Qiyang City, otherwise these people will all die." ”

Outside Qiyang City, there are countless horse bandits and robbers, if the crowd flees from Qiyang City in a panic, they are likely to die at the hands of horse bandits and robbers outside the city.

"You go and contact the brothers, tell the people in the city about the withdrawal of the horse bandits from Weilong Mountain, and stabilize the order in the city as soon as possible. Li Rui said.

There is no leader in the county office, someone must stand up and be the leader, Li Rui directly gave the order.

And Shen San didn't feel the slightest bit wrong at all, Li Rui's strength was there, and now only Li Rui could take the lead.

"No, everything that listens to Brother Rui, I'll contact you. Shen San consciously became a subordinate.
