Chapter 63: Overnight
After knocking down Xie Laiming, Mo Chen only came to take a long breath to recover his exsumed physical strength, although the battle just now only took a short time to determine the victory and defeat, but it contained great danger. Especially when Mo Chen faced the opponent's charged blow when his foothold was not stable, if Mo Chen had a little deficiency in the response at that time, I was afraid that he would be killed on the spot.
And the continuous change of moves in a short period of time, the mental energy consumed, and the great physical strength also made Mo Chen feel a sense of prostration at this time. After taking a few long breaths, Mo Chen finally regained some strength.
At this time, Xie Laiming had already stood up and pounced on the two knife-wielding young men next to him to deal with him. Looking at the two young men who were still motionless after hearing Xie Laiming's words, Mo Chen smiled lightly. Although it is true that he lost his strength for a short time, but in the few breaths just now, Mo Chen used the reckless strength of the exercises to run around his body a few times, and at this time he had recovered thirty percent of his physical strength.
Moreover, this short-term loss of strength was already recovering, and Mo Chen had a secret method to speed up, and just when Xie Lai Ming opened his mouth, Mo Chen had already recovered fifty percent of his physical strength, and he was even more confident at this time.
At this moment, Mo Chen's ears moved, and he heard heavy footsteps coming from behind him. Then there was a sound of a heavy object breaking through the air, and Mo Chen's body was wrong, and he dodged a few steps to the side, easily dodging the attack behind him.
His eyes swept over and after seeing the attacker just now, Mo Chen's heart suddenly became angry. It turned out that it was the middle-aged couple who had been hiding next to him who attacked him just now. At this time, the wife followed closely by her husband's side, and the husband was holding a bench next to the table in the distance, which he had used just now to sneak attack Mo Chen.
"Why?" Mo Chen asked angrily.
"You're just an outsider, and you killed the Eighth Master's men. Even if you kill the Eighth Master today, he has other subordinates, and if his subordinates want to inherit the Eighth Master's power in the name of righteousness, they will definitely avenge him. When the time comes, you will be gone, and we will still have to live here, and we will definitely be retaliated against by his men. We still have children, we don't have such good skills as you, what should we do? It's better to help the eighth master beat you to death now, and we can live a peaceful life in the future. You brought all this in the first place, shouldn't you be responsible? We don't want that...... We...... We just want to live in peace. Hearing Mo Chen's shout, her husband was silent, but his wife shouted hoarsely.
I didn't expect that just a small vendor setting up a stall on the side of the road would have this kind of wisdom. Among these words, there were many future scenes that Mo Chen had not been able to think of, but they were likely to really happen. This may be the wisdom in life that Mo Chen has not been exposed to.
"......" Mo Chen heard this, his heart was heavy and at the same time he felt full of sorrow.
No longer speaking, Mo Chen took a step, flew forward, and struck Xie Laiming's head with a powerful and extremely fast hand. Xie Lai Ming originally wanted to meet Mo Chen when he saw him rushing over, but he couldn't borrow strength from the ground with one leg being wasted, and the change of strength was more than a step slower, and before he could raise his arm, Mo Chen's fist hit him.
The hard skull of "Click" was shattered by Mo Chen's punch, and Xie Laiming's body flew out upside down. Immediately afterwards, Mo Chen unleashed the Xingyi Fist, swept in front of the two young men holding short knives with the body of a swallow scribbling water, and turned out from his waist with both hands, instantly hitting the chests of the two of them.
"Python out of the hole"
Hit by Mo Chen in the form of a snake in the Xingyi Fist, the two young men who didn't have time to react flew out upside down and fell to the ground and died.
Mo Chen looked at the middle-aged couple standing next to him again and said:
"Since I caused the matter, I will only solve it in my own way. As he spoke, he took out his money bag from the clothes on his chest and threw it at the two of them:
"This is all the money I have, and you should have enough money to rent a house in another place for a while, and go to another place to do business. ”
After speaking, Mo Chen didn't look at the two of them anymore, and went straight downstairs to leave.
After Mo Chen left, the couple picked up the money bag on the ground and weighed it, and then the woman turned her gaze to the body of the richly dressed Eighth Master Xie Laiming, and walked directly over to touch him. After a while, the woman took out a few silver tickets, looked at the numbers on them, and suddenly couldn't help but show joy, and hurriedly pulled her husband beside her away. It wasn't until the couple left, and Kuroko, who had been lying quietly on the ground without attracting anyone's attention, moved his head......
After walking out of the teahouse, Mo Chen returned to the inn non-stop, then packed up his things, and left the city directly before the sun set, heading in the direction of Xiangyang Mansion.
After all, Mo Chen had killed five people in a row just now, and the most important of them, Xie Laiming, was extremely powerful in the county, if the matter alarmed the government, it was estimated that there would be officials coming to the door soon.
After leaving the city and walking along the road for a while, Mo Chen relaxed. This was a chaotic era, the weakness of the imperial court led to the occupation of the country by foreign powers, and the corruption and incompetence of officials everywhere reported good news but not bad news. At this time, the imperial court's control over the local area has been low to a certain point, no matter what major cases occur in the local area, unless it involves rebellion, they will all be dealt with separately, even if a murderer like Mo Chen kills several people in a row, if he leaves the county seat, the government will probably not pursue it. And even if the Gu County government wants to hunt down Mo Chen, it can only issue the so-called sea fishing documents, and this kind of document with a portrait is mostly limited to one place, and is it a portrait with a painting on it...... Hehe...... I'm afraid that even the prisoner's own mother won't recognize it when she sees it, and it is basically a fool's dream to count on the portrait to arrest the key criminal.
Mo Chen walked all the way and walked a few miles, when he suddenly saw a small village faintly next to him. At this time, it was getting late, it was impossible to rush to Xiangyang Mansion today, Mo Chen had already planned to sleep in the wilderness, but he didn't expect to be able to see the village at this time, just to go and spend the night, it was better than sleeping in the wilderness.
In fact, there will be villages on the road, and it is normal to think about it, after all, it is the middle section between the county seat and the prefecture that want to connect, no matter what dynasty, this kind of area will generally gather a large number of villages, but it is really deep in the mountains and old forests, and there are villages living in inaccessible places, which is relatively rare.
Turning around and stepping on the Tu road leading to the village, Mo Chen soon came to the village. The village is small, with only a winding path running through the end of the road, with two or three houses scattered on each side of the road. The houses are all ordinary farmhouse courtyards, a main house and two side houses are close together, some have courtyard walls along the side houses on both sides, and some are simply fenced up. It can be seen that this path is the main road of the village, and the houses in the first row on both sides of the path look relatively good, basically all made of bricks, as for the last two rows of houses, they are not so good, and some of them are still earthen houses with thatched roofs.
Entering the village, Mo Chen began to knock on the door and spend the night, but it was not smooth, not smooth.
Knocking on the door of the house next to him along the village road, explaining his intention to the owner, and then being politely rejected by the owner, Mo Chen kept repeating this process.
This is still the case that others see that Mo Chen is immature and does not look much of a threat on the outside, if Mo Chen is a little more vicious, I am afraid that he will not even refuse politely, and he will be rejected directly.
"Knock knock" Mo Chen knocked on the courtyard door of a roadside house again, at this time Mo Chen had already come to the back of the village, near the end of the path, if no one let him spend the night, Mo Chen had already planned to find a random place in the wild for the night. After a while, as the sound of footsteps approached in the courtyard, the door "creaked" open. The door was opened by a woman wearing a long dress with wide sleeves in red and blue, the woman was rich and kind, with obvious wrinkles at the corners of her forehead and eyes, and she looked to be in her fifties, but women living in the countryside generally showed a lot of age because of their day and night work, and her actual age may be far less than her appearance age.
Seeing the woman, Mo Chen first greeted politely, and then explained his intention. The woman listened to Mo Chen's words and enthusiastically pulled Mo Chen into the house, which surprised Mo Chen, who was already hopeless.
However, Mo Chen finally has a place to settle down tonight.
