Mr. Fu ran away again today

"Island owner! Don't fight!" Xu Xiaoliang shouted anxiously, "It will be terrible if Elder Gao sees it!"

Mo Chen caught a glimpse of Hall Master Ma and Xu Xiaoliang arriving, and knew that Elder Gao would come if he didn't leave, so he really had no chance to leave.Mo Chen raised his sword to meet the guards, and after getting close, he switched to punching and kicking. After a few moves, he sent those guards flying. Seeing that there was a space, Mo Chen lifted his sword and flew out.

The guards picked up their swords and wanted to go forward again, but the sword of one of the guards was snatched by Hall Master Ma. Hall Master Ma stopped Mo Chen, held his sword, and persuaded: "Island Master! Don't mess with your temper!"

"I don't care!" Mo Chen said coldly, "I have to find Mr. Fu, he must be in danger! Whoever stops me from leaving the island today is my enemy, Mo Chen!"

"Mr. Fu is not missing!" Hall Master Ma said, "A brother sent a message from Mr. Fu today. Mr. Fu said that there is something at home and he will be back a few months later."

Mo Chen was taken aback, and asked, "When was the message?"

Hall Master Ma said: "I just arrived today, I asked Xu Xiaoliang to tell him about this, and asked him to report to the island owner when delivering the meal, but... I heard you forced your way out of the customs..."

Mo Chen was skeptical, he looked at Xu Xiaoliang.

Xu Xiaoliang nodded again and again: "What Hall Master Ma said is true, you see, Hall Master Ma and I came here together!"

Mo Chen asked again: "Then is there a letter?"

Hall Master Ma said: "When Mr. Fu passed the oral letter, he said that he would write a letter in a few days, and it will be here in a few days."

Mo Chen thought for a while, and said: "If I don't see Mr. Fu's letter within seven days, I will never forgive you!"

Seeing that Mo Chen believed it, Hall Master Ma and Xu Xiaoliang both heaved a sigh of relief.

Mo Chen put away his sword, and was about to ask for the details of the message, at this moment, a voice like a bell shouted: "Bastard! How dare you leave the customs without authorization?!"

As soon as he heard this voice, Elder Gao's calm and dignified face appeared in Mo Chen's mind, and then he thought of the whip in the Law Enforcement Hall, and he couldn't help but tense his back.

"Master Gao..." Mo Chen cupped his hands.

"You still have a master? I thought you were disrespectful! How dare you even violate the rules of the island!"

Elder Gao walked towards Mo Chen.He has white beard and hair, and he is wearing a plain long robe today, leaning on a staff taller than a person in his hand, when he looked at Mo Chen with sharp eyes, it made Mo Chen feel as if frost was forming around him.

The most frightening thing was that Mo Chen caught a glimpse of two Law Enforcement Hall disciples following behind him, one of them was holding a whip in his hand, Mo Chen knew that today's whip might not be able to escape...

The others also cupped their hands and said, "Elder Gao."

Elder Gao ignored it, he leaned on his stick and stopped in front of Mo Chen.

Elder Gao slammed the wooden stick in his hand to the ground, and shouted: "If you go out of the retreat during the retreat period, you will be punished with forty lashes according to the island's regulations!"

Mo Chen didn't dare to argue with Elder Gao, he resigned to his fate and lifted his robe and knelt down.

Elder Gao said: "Fight!"

A disciple stepped forward and held Mo Chen's arm, and another disciple picked up the whip and walked behind Mo Chen.

"Wait a minute!" Cui Wuyue who was watching the excitement suddenly said.

"Huh?" Elder Gao glanced at him, "Do you want to plead for mercy? The pleader is guilty of the same crime!"

Cui Wuyue stepped forward, pressed Mo Chen's other arm and said, "Elder Gao, I'm here to help."

"Who wants your help!" Mo Chen whispered.

Cui Wuyue sneered, twisted Mo Chen's arm hard, and said in a low voice, "It's a good show for you to be beaten, how can I not join in the fun?"

The whip broke through the wind and hit Mo Chen's back fiercely, leaving a bloodstain immediately. Mo Chen gasped and gritted his teeth.

After five whips, Elder Gao signaled the disciples of Law Enforcement Hall to stop.

Elder Gao said: "There are 35 lashes left, and you will come to the Law Enforcement Hall to receive the punishment after you leave the customs."

Mo Chen knew that he was only giving a small warning this time, and he was afraid that if he was broken, it would be even more hopeless to retreat.

But Mo Chen still murmured with some resentment: "If I think about going out, I will be beaten, and I'm not in the mood to seriously retreat..."

"Hmph, you're still reasonable!" Elder Gao said coldly, "Since you said so... If you can leave the customs before the fifteenth day of the first lunar month, I will give you the 35 lashes. If you can't, then be obedient Get punished."

When Mo Chen heard that he could avoid being beaten, he immediately agreed.

Elder Gao led the people away, so this incident of forced exit ended with five lashes.

Cui Wuyue was very upset, he really wanted to see what Mo Chen would look like after receiving forty lashes, but he didn't dare to contradict Elder Gao, he prayed in his heart that Mo Chen could not leave the level on time, and he was already one step ahead when he turned his head to chase after him father who is leaving.

Xu Xiaoliang sent Mo Chen to the island, and went back to get the golden sore medicine, and applied it on Mo Chen.

"Island owner, once you encounter Mr. Fu, you will be in chaos..." Xu Xiaoliang complained while applying medicine, "You are the owner of the island after all, and you were beaten in front of Elder Cui and his son today. It was so clean."

Mo Chen thought it was all right, it was enough to get news of Fu Chuxi today.

Three days later, Xu Xiaoliang brought a letter from Mr. Fu, which simply said that something happened at home and he would not be able to come back until the end of the new year.

Finally, there was a specific date, which made Mo Chen feel hopeful for the days of retreat, and became very focused and diligent in studying martial arts.

Xu Xiaoliang still went to deliver meals to Mo Chen every day, and occasionally told Mo Chen some important events that the storyteller in the teahouse said recently, such as Beidi's invasion, the emperor sent a prince to lead troops to fight, or which sect Mo Lang went to, cut who lost a leg.There are also some trivial matters on the island, for example, Miss Bai came here three times disguised as a man, but was turned away each time, and when she left in anger, she kept yelling that she would not be able to get around him when Mo Chen came out of the customs.

At the end of the new year, Mo Chen's sword moves are almost the same, the only difference is that he has not yet made a final breakthrough in his inner skills.

In order to see Mr. Fu as soon as possible, Mo Chen even disappeared from Xu Xiaoliang, every day when Xu Xiaoliang delivered meals, he only left the food box outside the door, and when Mo Chen was hungry, he went to get it himself.

Sometimes Mo Chen won't move the food box for a day, and Xu Xiaoliang won't try to persuade him, because he knows that this must be the most critical moment for the island master to practice.

Finally, on the afternoon of the fifteenth day of the first lunar month, Mo Chen left the customs.After rowing the boat to the shore, a few snowflakes fell from the sky, Mo Chen looked up at the gray sky.

After several days of cloudiness, it finally snowed.

The first thing to do when leaving the customs is naturally to go to Elder Gao's Law Enforcement Hall, and send back the sword manual and inner strength method, and by the way, ask Elder Gao to cancel the previous 35 lashes.

Elder Gao put away the sword manual and heart method, and scolded Mo Chen for not doing anything until the last moment. If he hadn't decided to leave the customs before the 35th day of the first lunar month to avoid the [-] lashes, he would have to delay it for a few more days.

Mo Chen still cared about Mr. Fu, and he was about to leave after a few words with Elder Gao, but he was forced by Elder Gao to drink together in the Law Enforcement Hall before releasing him.

When Mo Chen came out of the Law Enforcement Hall, it was still dark, and Mo Chen couldn't help but sigh that Elder Gao was really old, and he had dinner just after Shen Shi.

It was very cold, and Mo Chen was wearing little clothes. When he shrank his neck and returned to the residence, Xu Xiaoliang was playing dice with two young men on the porch.

As soon as Mo Chen entered the yard, he shouted loudly: "Xu Xiaoliang!"

Xu Xiaoliang was so frightened that he jumped up and said: "Take the money I won just now, and I will ask you to go later!" Then he ran out quickly.

"Island Master, are you out of customs?!" Xu Xiaoliang greeted him with a smile, concealing his panic about violating the rules, "Look, you've lost weight, so I'll ask the kitchen to prepare meals for you to replenish your body." .”

Mo Chen walked towards the house, and said: "No need to prepare the meal, I ate at Master Gao's. Tell me first, is Mr. Fu back?"

Xu Xiaoliang shook his head.

Mo Chen stopped, frowned and asked: "Haven't you come back yet? Did you send someone to visit Mr. Fu's house today?"

Xu Xiaoliang then shook his head.

"Well...then I'll go and have a look by myself in a while, maybe I've come back today and no one has reported." Mo Chen rubbed his hands and walked into the room, "Go get someone to boil some hot water, I want to take a bath. Another brazier , It's really cold today."
