Episode 128
Baekdo Murim Alliance (3)
That night.
“haha.”
Prince Moyong was very drunk.
It was my first time being this drunk since drinking with Yeon Ho-jeong. No, I didn’t drink like this even when I was drinking with Yeon Ho-jeong.
“It is an era of peace, but behind the scenes, blood and death are flying around. So, the martial arts world has always been an era of military conflict.”
Moyong-gun burst into cheerful laughter.
“This is why the world is interesting. “The flow of time also brings back relationships that were about to break.”
At that time, a heavy voice was heard.
“Are you okay?”
“What do you mean?”
“I mean Mo Yong-woo.”
“Hehe, you don’t know that kid.”
Mo Yong-gun’s eyes lit up.
Even though he was so drunk, his eyes were clear. As time passed, the thunder energy was actively gaining strength.
“There is a reason why I kept my youngest alive even in that rough power struggle. The youngest is pure. “I’m so pure that I can’t commit betrayal.”
“People can change at any time.”
“Even if your personality changes, your nature doesn’t change. I saw the youngest’s roots. Whether it was before or now, the roots haven’t changed.”
Mo Yong-gun’s eyes deepened.
“But….”
Jiyiing.
A menacing blue light covered his entire body.
Pusssss.
In an instant, the room was filled with the smell of alcohol. The cycle was expelled in one go.
“At the same time, I also know my roots.”
“….”
“A mind reader that even his own flesh and blood cannot trust. No, I am even more suspicious because they are blood relatives. The reason is because I know that betrayal by someone close to me hurts much more.”
“Are you saying you don’t trust Mo Yongwu? “How did you receive him if you did not believe in him?”
“You have no idea how grateful I am to my youngest. “I trust my youngest.”
“….”
“Hana, I don’t trust the youngest’s circumstances. “I don’t think I’m an easy person to hire the youngest in a situation where I don’t even know what he’s seen or what people he’s been friends with.”
“What if I do it?”
“Because I know his abilities.”
Moyong-gun smiled.
“He who gains lightly is bound to disappear lightly. A representative example was the dream I sent a couple of months ago.”
“….”
“Surprisingly, someone who worked hard to gain something can easily disappear. I had my youngest child in 20 years. “Isn’t it impossible to easily lose a valuable card that you worked so hard to obtain?”
“What do you plan to do?”
“This guy is weak on emotions. In that case, we have no choice but to tie up another affection.”
A cool shadow appeared on Mo Yong-gun’s face.
‘No matter what harsh task you give me, I will follow it without a word.’
Mo Yong-gun remembered Mo Yong-woo’s powerful eyes and quenched his appetite.
“It’s a bit heartless to call this work, but…”
“…?”
“Did you say that the eldest daughter of Joongwon Jeonjang (中原錢莊) has not yet married?”
The man opened his eyes wide.
Jungwon Battlefield is a huge battlefield, one of the top three in martial arts powerhouses.
It has the longest history among battlefields, so its connections are beyond imagination. They even bought countless cilantro to protect their money, so they can be considered to be more than a fairly large clan based on simple force alone.
And Jangju of the Jungwon Battlefield was quite close to Prince Moyong.
“He is already thirty years old. “No matter how much he has roots in the martial arts world, he hasn’t been able to get married at that age, so wouldn’t this be a big problem?”
“But… the eldest daughter of the chieftain is only eighteen years old.”
“Huh, what does age have to do with marriage? Wu is one of the greatest geniuses I know. “He will become the head of the Moyong family in the future, so they should like him.”
Moyong smiled like a bad boy.
“Please send a message to the commander of the central battlefield. “Please come on an outing to the Murim League.”
* * *
“You have arrived.”
“okay.”
There are four huge gates in the Murimmaeng. People called that gate Sasudaemun (四獸大門).
Yeon Ho-jeong’s expression became strange.
“It is the Four Gods…”
The gate they were trying to enter was the Blue Dragon Gate (Blue Dragon Gate), one of the Four Gods’ Gates.
The blue dragon symbol was vividly embossed on the enormous gate. And the wall surrounding the gate was four times higher than the main gate.
‘It’s enormous.’
Yeon Ho-jeong inwardly clicked his tongue.
He too had seen the Murim League in the past. However, at that time, the outer wall of the Murimmaeng was half collapsed due to the war with Saeumgyo.
‘Crazy guys. ‘I can’t believe you destroyed this castle wall.’
It is difficult to make even a single dent without pouring in a huge amount. I once again realized how ridiculous the insane power of Saeumgyo was.
“Let’s go in.”
The warriors of Yeonga headed to the front of the Blue Dragon Gate.
“Please identify yourself.”
“It’s Byeoksan Yeonga in Jiangsu Province.”
After going through a simple verification process, the Blue Dragon Gate was opened.
Kugugoogung!
The majesty of the Blue Dragon Gate, which slowly opened from side to side, was overwhelming.
Yeon Ho-jeong quenched his appetite.
‘Heukjeseong didn’t taste like this.’
Heukje Castle was much smaller than this. Instead, thousands of dollars were poured into internal construction to increase troop concentration.
“Wow….”
“Huh?”
Mukbi looked at the gate as if possessed.
“I’ve never seen anything like that before.”
“…It’s my first time seeing this too.”
Yes, this is my first time seeing it.
But for some reason, the medicine went up.
‘You said to reduce the size of the fortress, you damn b*stard.’
At the time, Mukbi argued that the size of Heukje Castle should never be increased. Although the funds were sufficient, it was necessary to save up military funds for future battles.
Therefore, Heukje Castle was created in pursuit of minimum cost and maximum efficiency. Of course, Yeon Ho-jeong also agreed with that statement.
Still, I feel a little sad that the person involved is like this.
Yeon Ho-jeong ruffled Muk-bi’s hair.
“Ugh! What’s wrong!”
“I don’t know, man.”
“Ah really. “You’ve just been grumpy these days.”
“What?”
“You made a fuss when you could have stayed quiet earlier.”
“When did I!”
“With the Namgung family.”
“Hey then, can you tolerate that? Anyone can see that this is a forced apology!”
“Then why don’t we just ignore it? Why bother provoking us even more?”
“You’re saying scary things. “It hurts your pride more to be ignored than to be criticized.”
“Anyway, it couldn’t have been that way. Anyway, I heard you have a knack for making accidents.”
“Just cut this guy’s snout…”
Yeonwi said at that time.
“What Bia said makes sense.”
“…Keueuung.”
“This is the case everywhere in Gangho, but since you are here to discuss important matters, you will need to pay special attention to your behavior.”
“Do not worry.”
Mukbi looked at Yeonhojeong with distrustful eyes.
Yeon Ho-jeong rolled his eyes wildly. Mukbi turned his head with an expression of anger.
thud!
Finally, the Blue Dragon Gate was fully opened.
Yeonwi’s eyes sparkled.
“It’s finally the Murim Alliance.”
At the same time, Yeon Ho-jeong’s eyes also changed.
He knew that Mo Yongwu had already come here. Considering the distance and travel speed, it would have arrived at least a day before.
‘I believe I asked the right question.’
Again and again.
Yeonga’s group entered the Murim Alliance.
The inside of the Murim Alliance was no different from another midfield. There were many curved roads and many flat ones.
‘Hmm.’
Yeon Ho-jeong’s eyes scanned the surroundings in an instant.
‘It was definitely made right.’
Even though the area was extremely large, the layout of the buildings and castle towers were very structured.
‘A structure extremely specialized for castle warfare. Just the outside of the outer wall is like this….’
Yeonhojeong inwardly stuck out his tongue.
‘It’s not a joke. It seems like the Black Emperor Castle has been expanded several times.’
That was the case with the Murim League, which was in good condition. It was showing the majesty of the Cheolongseong Fortress that could never be destroyed.
Yeonwi asked.
“Isn’t it amazing?”
“That’s right.”
“It is completely different from the architectural structure of the main house. The main house is arranged to facilitate the gathering and counterattack of warriors.”
“On the other hand, the Murim League was designed to be extremely easy on water-based warfare.”
“I saw it well.”
“It’s probably because of the symbolism of the Murim Alliance. Even if everything else is fine, if the Murim Alliance collapses, the Baekdo will lose its power. A rare iron fortress that no one can conquer. “You can understand the history of the Baekdo Murim just by looking at the Murim Alliance.”
Yeonwi looked at Yeonhojeong.
Yeon Ho-jeong blinked. It was a very innocent expression.
“Why are you looking at me like that?”
I have been surprised a lot by my eldest son.
I thought there would be nothing more surprising now, but I was surprised again.
‘It’s really scary.’
My son’s words cut to the core.
White peach is different from black peach. The black sword uses all kinds of mean tactics to survive, but the white sword burns its spirit by dying.
That’s why the black swords are scattered and unable to exert their power. If they had joined forces, at least they wouldn’t have been as weak as they are now.
On the other hand, the power of Baekdo is thoroughly concentrated.
Most of the sects in each region of the central plains where the nine factions and the six generations took root are joining hands with them. And they all fight against foreign powers with the Murim Alliance as their focal point.
Baekdo has been on the verge of destruction, but has never completely collapsed.
The power of this surname was so great that it was named Murimmaeng.
“There is truly nothing you cannot do. “Where did you learn that?”
Yeon Ho-jeong scratched his head.
“A book. “I’m very interested in this kind of thing…”
Yeonwi believed in her son. But I didn’t believe this now.
This wasn’t something you could know by reading a book. You can’t tell even by looking at the picture.
You have to see it for yourself, observe it, and live in such a place to know it.
There are geniuses, whether in martial arts or academics, but in cases such as tactical fortresses or strategic layouts, study is strictly experience-oriented.
“You mean…”
That was then.
“Hey!!”
It was truly a loud voice.
It was a performance that no one could help but look back on. I felt an overwhelming sense of liberation.
“Sibaal! “Yeon Gongjaaa!”
Yeon Ho-jeong’s eyes trembled slightly.
He glanced at Yeonwi.
Of course, Yeonwi’s expression was not good. Just looking at his expression, I can’t help but wonder where he met such a vulgar friend.
However, Yeonwi knew the identity of the other person. That’s why I don’t say anything.
“It’s been so long…!!”
“Ah, you’re a little noisy, you crazy b*stard!”
Full-sang, which was running at incredible speed, stopped.
Yeon Ho-jeong, who was about to spit out one more vulgar curse, hesitated for a moment. This is because I saw Full Sang’s eyes turn red.
Grumbling.
I felt like a single tear was flowing down my face, and then I fell down and cried.
“Uh-huh! “Wow!”
It was a sight to behold.
That’s not acting, it’s real. It cries so sadly that it even brings tears to the eyes of those who see it. Mukbi was sobbing even though he didn’t know who the other person was.
“Ugh! “Free!!”
At this point, even the Yeonwi had no choice but to open his mouth.
“It looks like something… something bad happened to Hu-gae.”
Try to speak calmly. Yeonwi was also embarrassed.
Yeon Ho-jeong grumbled.
“What could possibly be bad for that beggar? “I probably ran away because I didn’t want to practice martial arts.”
“Be selective about what you say.”
“That’s okay for that guy.”
Yeon Ho-jeong chuckled.
Still, it’s been a while since I last saw you, so I’m glad to see you.
“Stop crying and get up.”
“Sniff.”
“It’s been a while. “How are you?”
“I couldn’t.”
Full-sang came over with a heart-broken expression and held Yeon Ho-jeong’s hand.
Yeon Ho-jeong’s face was distorted. Both of Chaeung-sang’s hands holding hers were covered in tears and snot.
“Have a drink with me today!”
