Chapter 123: Cruelty

In the twenty-third year of Guangxu, Shandong had a far-reaching "Caozhou Teaching Case" that spread throughout the country in the future. Two German missionaries were beaten to death by the folk boxer Mo Chen in Juye, Caozhou, for unknown reasons.

The Kaiser was "furious" when he heard the news and took this opportunity to send warships to occupy Jiaozhou Bay and Jiaoao, forcing the Qing government to sign the "Australian Lend-Lease Treaty" and also demanding severe punishment of the murderers and 200,000 yuan in silver.

Taking this as an opportunity, the great powers were ready to move and began another round of carving up the Qing State.

In the following month, the Russian army moved into Lushun, south of Liaoyang, and the British and French sent troops to occupy Weihai and Guangzhou Bay, respectively.

Due to the further aggressive acts of foreign powers, not only did the people in the land of China become more disgusted with foreigners, but more and more foreigners poured into all parts of the country, and foreigners, foreign goods, and foreign religions were everywhere.

There are countless more active foreign businessmen and foreigners in various places than before, which also caused the conflict between China and the West to become more and more fierce for a while, and further strengthened the people's disgust with foreigners, and everyone's antipathy towards foreigners has deepened day by day, and it has reached the level of mentioning foreign color change and gnashing teeth.

Little Lonely Peak, San'in Village.

Sanyin Village is located in the north of the foot of Xiaogufeng Mountain, the whole village is backed by Xiaogufeng, the back is shaded and shaded, warm in winter and cool in summer, and the climate is pleasant.

"Mr. Mo, it's early!"

"Mr. Mo, is this a return from boxing?"

"Mr. Mo, I haven't finished eating yet, my house is just ready, come and eat together at my house." ”

"Mr. Mo,............"

At this time, it was already early in the morning, and Mo Chen had just come down from Xiao Gufeng's boxing. Walking in the village, the villagers he met along the way kept greeting him, and Mo Chen also responded one by one with a smile.

In this area of Xiaogufeng, Mo Chen has been here a long time ago and has helped the nearby villagers do a lot of things, so here, just like in other places, Mo Chen is very popular with the villagers.

This time Mo Chen came here again, and temporarily lived in Shanyin Village, the nearby villagers were very happy after hearing it, and from time to time there would be villagers from other villages to visit, express their gratitude, and invite Mo Chen to be a guest.

For the enthusiasm of the villagers, Mo Chen is not easy to refuse, because in the past 20 days since he came to Shanyin Village, Mo Chen has not been idle.

Mo Chen had to deal with the villagers from several nearby villages every day, as well as the villagers of his own village from time to time, and he had no free time, let alone practice quietly as he thought at the beginning. So he had to go to Xiaogu Mountain to practice boxing before dawn every day, and then return in the morning.

The saying that ordinary boxers don't practice their hands for one day and don't practice for three days is that the most important thing in martial arts is to exercise unremittingly every day.

However, martial arts have reached the point of Mo Chen, every move in his daily life is actually integrated into martial arts, and every move is practice, so martial arts will not regress.

But even so, Mo Chen never gave up his daily basic exercises. It's just that Mo Chen's practice now is no longer a speculation on boxing moves and the operation of strength, but a careful taste of the connection between martial arts and the human body, and between the human body and all things in nature.

With the progress of Mo Chen's martial arts, especially recently, Mo Chen is about to create a martial arts method that combines all the martial arts in this world, which shows that his understanding of martial arts has surpassed all the people in this world, but the more so, every time he practices boxing, Mo Chen has a lot of understanding.

Ordinary people practice boxing, boxing is just boxing, boxing is just punching, punching is just punching, strength is just strength, don't have to think so much. Mo Chen is different, the higher his martial arts, the more he sees, the more Mo Chen feels that the less he knows about martial arts, and the more unknowns he knows about martial arts.

Therefore, every time he throws his fist recently, he is sorting out all kinds of himself, so that all the principles of his different martial arts are fused and collided, and every time he runs his strength, he can feel a lot of unspeakable feelings that he has not noticed before, and all kinds of unspeakable feelings pour into his heart.

These perceptions will eventually be transformed into this martial art that is about to be born, and further enhance the foundation of this martial art.

When Mo Chen was walking all the way to the middle of the village, the villagers deliberately let him live in it, which was considered the best house in the village, when suddenly a feeling of palpitations surged in Mo Chen's heart.

So Mo Chen stopped, stood in place, and opened his spiritual vision to envelop the entire village, but under the scanning of spiritual vision, Mo Chen did not find anything abnormal.

Just when Mo Chen was wondering in his heart, a slight vibration came from under his feet, accompanied by a faint rumbling sound in the distance.

The tremors under his feet soon grew louder and louder, and at the same time the rumbling sound grew louder and louder, to the point that ordinary people could hear that it was from outside the village.

Mo Chen looked around, his vision was blocked by the surrounding houses, so he exerted force under his feet, and with a leap of bending his knees, his body rose into the air and jumped onto the roof next to him.

Standing on the roof, without obstruction, Mo Chen's vision was broad, and at a glance, he saw a large number of horse teams rushing towards the village in the distance.

The vibration and sound just now were the result of hundreds of horses trampling on the ground as the horses galloped.

From here, the riders on the horses were dressed in leather armor and carried bows and swords, and they looked like regular troops.

Seeing this army galloping from a distance, coupled with the throbbing in his heart, Mo Chen faintly had a bad premonition.

"Wow. ”

Soon, the horse team came to the entrance of the village, and the horses were slowly stopped by the riders who pulled the reins.

Then the group of more than a hundred riders dismounted and rushed into the village with a man wearing a helmet and iron armor who looked like a general.

As soon as they entered the village, the group of stubborn soldiers scattered in all directions, grabbed a few villagers who were watching at the door when they heard the movement, and brought them to the general at the head.

"Choke"

The general drew the long knife from his waist, put it on the neck of one of the villagers, and asked sharply:

"Where is the traitor Mo Chen?"

"I ...... I ......"

Where had this villager seen such a formation, and he was so frightened that he trembled for a while, and his words were not good.

"Humph!"

The general snorted coldly, and with a slash of the long knife in his hand, he slit the throats of the villagers.

"Puff Puff"

The incision was so deep that it almost cut off most of the villager's neck, and a large puddle of blood immediately sprayed out. As blood splattered, the corpses of the villagers fell to the ground, their bodies still twitching unconsciously.

"Ahhhh

Seeing this scene, several villagers who were splashed with blood immediately screamed in horror, kicked the ground with both feet, and kept hiding backwards.

However, the soldiers who held them down behind them smiled evilly, and instead pushed them in the direction of the corpses. Seeing the frightened expressions on the villagers' faces and distorted expressions, the group of soldiers laughed and laughed even more happily.
