Mo Congfeng rushed down the stairs and ran as fast as he could, secretly blaming himself. Perhaps if he had stayed for half a day longer, things would have been different. He used his Qinggong skills and arrived in front of the village in less than two quarters of an hour.

"Don't panic, don't panic!" Mo Congfeng whispered to himself, flew up a tree, adjusted his breathing and observed the situation in front of the village. He saw four men dressed as soldiers gathered in front of the village. There were several children lying in front of the village, and there were several other people who kept grabbing children from the village. The village was on fire everywhere and had turned into a sea of ​​fire.

"Don't panic, don't panic!" Mo Congfeng muttered to himself, but anger was burning in his heart. He had been on the battlefield for a long time and had seen several armies, including the army of the Central Plains, the army of Korea, the army of the Mongolian tribe, and the army of the Jurchen tribe. No matter how corrupt their military discipline was, how demoralized their military spirit was, and how they committed evil deeds, they were fundamentally different from the Japanese army. Those soldiers burned, killed, and looted for a purpose, either for food, for money, for obedience, or even for military merit. They always had a purpose.

But the Japanese pirates' army was different from them. On the Korean battlefield, Mo Congfeng had seen many villages that had given up resistance and were willing to hand over everything. People who were willing to endure all plunder and insults still could not survive under the swords of the Japanese pirates. They were still burned to ashes and killed. Mo Congfeng could not think of their purpose of killing. Was it for fun? Was it to celebrate martial arts? Were the Koreans not the same kind as them? Different but human?

Mo Congfeng couldn't understand it, and neither could the Korean volunteers. The Korean volunteers realized this, and what they wanted was the complete extinction of the Koreans on this land. So the anger of the Korean volunteers spread across the eight provinces of Korea, and the outcome of the War to Resist Japanese Aggression and Aid Korea was already doomed.

The Japanese pirates could not gain any support on the Korean battlefield and had no foothold. Even if they had an army of 100,000 or 200,000, they would be an isolated army in Korea. It was not the Ming army that defeated them, nor the Korean army that defeated them, but they defeated themselves.

Later, Mo Congfeng saw a lot of confiscated knives, and heard many stories about so-called warriors testing knives and killing people in Korea or even in their own country. It was completely purposeless killing, and Mo Congfeng could not find a word to describe them. There were similar people in the Central Plains, and there were also people who killed innocent people indiscriminately. Such people were often called demons, but demons also had purposes and desires. Mo Congfeng could not guess the purpose and desires of those warriors who tested knives and killed people, but he racked his brains. The word "devil" was far from enough to describe them. Perhaps future generations would create some words to describe them.

Mo Congfeng couldn't understand why these people in front of him killed valuable adults and kidnapped children. "What a bunch of monsters!" Mo Congfeng cursed inwardly.

Mo Congfeng observed carefully and found that there were eight monsters in total. A team of four was responsible for blocking the entrance of the village and guarding the captured children, and a team of four was responsible for dispersing in the village to capture children. Mo Congfeng looked at the sun in the sky. It was just afternoon, and the dark night that was convenient for a surprise attack could not be counted on. Mo Congfeng felt that he was not familiar with the terrain and did not find any terrain that could be used. However, Mo Congfeng did not take a few miscellaneous soldiers seriously.

By the time Mo Congfeng's breathing was evened out, half an incense stick of time had passed. Taking advantage of the gap when the four people entered the village, he jumped down from the tree and rushed towards the village.

The oldest of the four was the first to notice the rushing Mo Congfeng, and shouted "Enemy attack", then ran towards Mo Congfeng, drew out the short blade and swung at Mo Congfeng. Mo Congfeng dodged it, but still felt a pain in his chest.

Sword Qi! Mo Congfeng was shocked. The elder's short blade did not touch him, but he was still hit. Mo Congfeng was alarmed and released his sword Qi. The opponent was a first-class master! He could not get entangled with him!

Mo Congfeng passed by the older man and attacked the three younger men. As he quickly got closer to the three men, Mo Congfeng could even see the slightly immature face of the nearest man, which was slightly distorted by fear.

Mo Congfeng was very familiar with this childish face. On the Korean battlefield, Mo Congfeng had killed many foot soldiers. Most of them were sons of farmers. They came to the battlefield either forced or voluntarily. No matter how harmless their previous origins seemed, they would eventually turn into wild beasts and participate in fighting or even massacres.

Mo Congfeng was so angry that he could not tolerate any weakness. He drew out his short sword and gently swung it around his neck, then attacked the next person. The remaining two shouted while forming seals for "Wind Escape: Fierce Wind Palm". Before the first person could complete the seal, he was stabbed down by Mo Congfeng's sword. Then Mo Congfeng rushed to the last person. Suddenly, a strong wind blew in front of him, making it difficult to move forward.

What kind of trick was this? Mo Congfeng was puzzled. He used the Flying on the Grass Kung Fu and changed his route from a straight line to an arc. He got close to the last person and swung his sword. The last person raised his arm to block and was hit by the sword on his arm.

"Wind Style: Sand Shot" a loud shout came from behind, and Mo Congfeng felt several strong winds coming from behind. He hurriedly used the Iron Bridge and ducked to avoid it. He only heard a few "puff" sounds, and the last younger one was hit. He then vomited blood and was about to die.

"Warrior? Warrior from the Iron Country?" the elder asked. Mo Congfeng turned around to face the last enemy and did not respond, fighting cautiously. At this time, Mo Congfeng had time to look at the other party. He saw that the other party was wearing armor and a forehead guard with a spiral pattern.

"Is this a ninja?" Mo Congfeng thought, "It's really different from the Koga Iga ninjas I've seen before. Smoke bombs and shuriken are common moves used by Koga Iga ninjas. Maybe the ninjas here also have such tricks. We have to be careful, but we should pay more attention to their strange moves."

Mo Congfeng knew that he had to fight quickly as his opponent had four companions, so he rushed towards the enemy and used the Grass Flying Kung Fu. In order to guard against the opponent's strange moves, he made several feints and changed directions. However, the older ninja was obviously more experienced than the three young men he had killed before, and he was not fooled by his feints.

After a short stalemate, the older ninja casually threw out a few short blades with a talisman paper attached to the back of the short blades. Mo Congfeng felt that they were too slow. He easily dodged them and they landed behind him. Unexpectedly, there was a sudden light behind him, and an explosion was heard. Smoke rose up everywhere. Mo Congfeng hurriedly ran forward to avoid it, and the older ninja on the opposite side took the opportunity to quickly approach.

"Wind Style: Vacuum Blade", Mo Congfeng saw it clearly this time. He saw a transparent and bright light shining on the short blade of the older ninja opposite him, as if the short blade had suddenly become longer. Mo Congfeng did not dare to take it head-on and kept dodging.

A moment after the explosion, four ninjas in similar attire rushed out from the village entrance. This group of four consisted of an older man and three younger ones. They ran towards the battle. One of the ninjas held a child in each hand, and another ninja carried a child on his back. The four of them ran forward, threw the children to the ground, drew their short blades and were about to join the battle. The children did not even cry when they were thrown to the ground.

While Mo Congfeng was dodging, he saw this scene and frowned slightly. He knew he could not delay any longer. He stopped dodging and used the Baoyuan Jue true Qi to perform the unique sword technique in "Hengshan Five Divine Sword Technique", the Tianzhu Sword Technique - Tianzhu Cloud Qi. He leaned back and held his body together, then thrust forward. The sword body made a sharp whistling sound and released a sword energy. The older ninja had never seen such a magical sword technique before, and he did not know how to dodge. The sword energy pierced through his chest and he died on the spot.

This move scared the four ninjas who came to help. Mo Congfeng seized the opportunity and first used the Purple Cover Sword Technique - Crane Soaring Purple Cover, and then used the Zhurong Sword Technique - Wild Goose Returning Zhurong. His nimble figure shuttled between the four ninjas. The four ninjas were so horrified that they didn't even use the "Wind Escape" move. Mo Congfeng had killed two young ninjas with two moves.

Seeing that the situation was not good, the remaining two people tried to escape quickly. Mo Congfeng picked up two short blades and threw them with force. One hit the young ninja in the back and the other hit the older ninja in the shoulder. The older ninja quickly picked up the young ninja and threw several short blades behind him. There was a piece of talisman paper attached to each short blade. Mo Congfeng had seen the explosive power of this kind of talisman paper, so he quickly dodged and retreated.

After the explosion, Mo Congfeng wanted to chase again, but suddenly he felt that his true energy was running out, so he had to give up. The Hengshan Five Divine Swords is the strongest sword technique of the Hengshan School, the crown of all Hengshan sword techniques, and it consumes the most true energy. Now Mo Congfeng's internal strength has just recovered, and he has little time to regulate his breathing and recover his energy, so there is very little true energy left.

Turning back to check the condition of the children, several children died due to the explosion of the talisman paper. Seven children were still alive. One boy was seriously injured and had fallen into a coma. The rest of the children had some minor injuries. Most of them had blurred eyes and looked dazed, as if they had been greatly frightened.

If martial artists want to reach a high level, they must read "The Yellow Emperor's Classic of Internal Medicine", so they all know some medical skills. Mo Congfeng is no exception. Mo Congfeng searched the backpacks of the six dead ninjas, but found an hourglass pattern forehead protector in the backpack. Mo Congfeng guessed the truth: a group of hourglass pattern forehead protector ninjas disguised as vortex pattern forehead protector ninjas came to this small village to rob children and committed such a crime.

Mo Congfeng didn't have time to think about it. He simply used the looted items to treat the injured children and bandaged their wounds.

By this time, most of the houses that were on fire had been put out. When Mo Congfeng walked into the village, he saw corpses everywhere. It was unbearable to look at. The village itself was small. Judging from the houses, there were probably only more than 20 families, and most of them were wooden houses. Such a village was wiped out, leaving only seven children.

Mo Congfeng walked out of the village and saw seven children gathered together, looking at him eagerly. Mo Congfeng still remembered how happy these children were playing yesterday, and it felt like countless needles were piercing his heart.

Mo Congfeng was determined to take the children away from this village, away from this sad place, but he had no idea where to go.

Mo Congfeng distributed six ninja backpacks to six children who could walk on their own. He carried a seriously injured child on his back and led the children along the river towards the mountain where they would grill fish. It was almost dark, but they still couldn't reach the top of the mountain. They could only rest on the spot and lead the children to collect firewood to make a fire, and then catch fish to prepare meals.

It was a quiet night. Mo Congfeng wanted to chat with the children, but apart from informing each other of their names, the children refused to say anything else. Soon, the only sound that could be heard was the crackling of burning matches.

Where should he go? He can't always take these seven little burdens with him. Mo Congfeng has no idea. Looking at the sky full of stars, the scenes that happened in the past two days reappeared in his mind. Remembering the recommendation of the village chief before leaving, Mo Congfeng made a decision. Go to the Fire Kingdom, the rich Fire Kingdom mentioned by the village chief. This may be the revelation of fate and the final arrangement of the old village chief.

When he arrived in the Land of Fire, he entrusted the children to places like the orphanage Ciyoutang and then went about his own business.

Mo Congfeng thought, there are exploding talisman papers and magical "wind escape" moves here, will there be other escape techniques, such as "fire escape"? The existence of such power and ninjas with such power are real threats to the Ming Dynasty and the Central Plains. Once a war breaks out between the Ming Dynasty and such ninjas, the consequences will be unimaginable and the Ming Dynasty will suffer immeasurable losses.

Mo Congfeng was determined to collect complete intelligence, understand the secrets of these talismans and these escape techniques, complete his mission, then find a ship to go out to sea, leave this crazy country, and finally return to his homeland.
