Episode 283
Shadow War (3)
Even after Mo Yong’s army left, Zhuge Wenhu was lost in thought for a long time.
His eyes, looking down at the fallen liquor bottle, were deeper than ever and seemed confused at the same time.
Suddenly, Zhuge Wenhu let out a sigh.
“The reason is clear…”
It wasn’t wrong. No, it wasn’t wrong, it was just a very natural thing to say.
Although Mo Yong-gun was angry because of what he saw as the status of the Murim Alliance and his younger brother, the words that came out of his mouth contained a clear and correct path.
What is the degree? Is protecting the weak and punishing the wicked enough?
Not like that.
The group’s natural rights and natural behavioral principles also belong to the degree.
They were martial people. They wield enormous power that ordinary people cannot even dream of, and so they had to be even more careful in aiming the direction of that power.
Those who aim it correctly are called the White Path faction, and those who aim it as they please are called the Black Path faction.
However, whether white or black, they were ultimately martial people.
And the martial people were people who pathologically hated being looked down upon due to the nature of the system.
Of course, it is more important to control such shame and anger and keep the agreement until the end.
However, the Murim Alliance should not be underestimated. This was something that any organization with power should have, regardless of the distinction between political and political factions.
It is the same as saying that my country should not be looked down on by foreign enemies. It is good to respect the other person, but you must have a sense of intimidation that you will be angry if you touch them.
That is power.
And the Murim Alliance must be able to embrace not only the good grassroots but also the Murim people.
“Yes, he is right.”
Zhuge Wenhu sighed.
“Regardless of how terrible of a person he is, if you know what he says is right, you have to walk that path.”
Zhuge Wenhu checked and distrusted Prince Mo Yong more than necessary.
In fact, it was not Zhuge Li’s fault, but Mo Yong’s fault. He committed so many sins in the name of pursuing his dream.
However, Zhuge Liang was a military man.
Even if the other person is the most vicious criminal in the world, you should try to see through them and not start distrusting them.
Zhuge Munho, who was deep in thought, immediately shouted at the door.
“Is there anything?”
“Yes, soldier.”
“Please bring in an advisor. “Tell him we need to hurry and see him.”
“I will follow your orders.”
Zhuge Wenhu sighed.
“…Uisinhoe.”
His eyes sparkled.
‘Regardless of what Moyongaju said, I never thought such an organization truly existed.’
They gather privately to form a small gathering or, at best, form a huge gathering in a specific area.
Zhuge Wenhu thought exactly that much. Actually, that was normal.
‘I too was stuck in common sense. I never would have thought that lawmakers would create such a secret organization and secretly exercise power.’
This part also could not be seen as Zhuge Munhao’s fault. If this is his fault, it must also be his fault that he did not know about the Three Religions of Gwangsin.
There is nothing you can do about not knowing. What was important was how you handled things once you found out.
‘Those who deal with people’s lives are blinded by money and power, so they reject others and use bribes.’
A sharp and murderous look flashed in Zhuge Wenhu’s eyes.
‘They are truly ugly people.’
After a while, the door opened and Full Sang came in.
“Did you call me, soldier?”
“Please sit here.”
As soon as he entered the room, he could feel an unusual atmosphere. Zhuge Munho’s expression was an expression, but the liquor bottles and glasses lying on the floor made him nervous.
“What’s going on?”
“Do you know about the organization called Uishinhoe?”
“Uisinhoe? Hmm….”
Full-sang, who was deep in thought and frowning, suddenly snapped his fingers.
“ah! I’ve heard of it. “I understand that it is similar to a meeting formed by a group of well-known lawmakers, right?”
Certainly, Full Sang’s hair was not unusual. It looks like he had completely forgotten it, but it would be impossible for a criminal to bring up forgotten memories just by hearing the name.
“It seems like Uisinhoe is not an ordinary organization.”
“yes? “What do you mean by that?”
Zhuge Wenhu told Prince Mo Yong everything he had heard.
Full-sang opened his mouth wide.
“Is that true?”
“I see it that way. “To be really sure, we’ll have to investigate more closely, but for now, I think it’s reliable information.”
“…Wow, now even the lawmakers who live and repair people’s bodies are going crazy? Have you seen these b*stards!”
Gaeun-sang was also truly angry.
As Zhuge Mun-ho looked at Full Sang’s red face, he thought that he must be a timid person wearing a mask of prudence, just as Mo Yong-gun had said.
Yes. This reaction, that intense anger, was honest and natural. A person who knows the true justice and extent should react like this.
“Has there been any separate contact from the Western Station Priestess?”
“doesn’t exist. However, there was a report that the commanders of Tangma Muromsa Temple entered Gangseo Province before Ban Shijin. “I expect that he has probably come into contact with the Western Station Priestess and is heading north by now.”
“I see.”
Zhuge Wenhu said in a cold voice.
“After a while.”
They are called Hugae, not information advisors.
Full-sang’s eyes deepened.
“Please speak, matriarch.”
“You know it’s Hagok, right? “A famous lawmaker from Henan Province.”
“Of course I know.”
“Can you order the public officials to escort Hagok as well as all the lawmakers who are close to him?”
Full-sang’s eyes sparkled.
Horses were escorts, but what Zhuge Liang wanted was forcible transport. He was able to understand its meaning right away.
“Are you going to be okay?”
“It’s okay. “The justification is sufficient.”
“If the matriarch says so… I understand. “Let’s release the kids right away.”
“How long do you think it will take?”
“As long as they don’t hide in mouse holes, we can bring them all in within four days.”
“It’s really fast. “Please do so.”
“All right.”
“And go and torture.”
The name has changed again. The intention was to handle this matter publicly.
“Please speak, soldier.”
“Please find out where God Tongcheon is currently.”
The reason why Prince Moyong mentioned Tongcheonshinui was to use him.
And Zhuge Mun-ho did not pretend to be unaware of the help that Mo Yong-gun had hinted at.
“All right. “I will move right away.”
“Please.”
* * *
“Is it here?”
“That’s right.”
“Good. “Let’s go in.”
The group entered a fairly large base.
Surprisingly, even though it was the most crowded time, there was not a single customer on base. However, it wasn’t that the exterior was dirty or the interior was disorganized.
This base running was operated secretly in the open. They are also actively helping out in the open area to escort the western station priestess.
“Greetings. This is called divine fog.”
A young beggar who must have been in his mid-twenties now greeted the group.
‘Ohh?’
Kang Ryang’s eyes sparkled.
‘It’s considerable?’
Although he was in his mid-twenties, he was an advocate of openness. Nevertheless, Jininba Muwi did not seem to be inferior in any way compared to himself.
Kang Ryang’s gaze was immediately focused on Lee Lee due to the opponent’s unexpected martial arts attack.
Lee Lee felt Kang Ryang’s gaze on him, but did not look back at him.
“You are Daehyeop Mo Yongwu, the commander of the Tangma Army, and Yeonhojeong Daehyeop, the commander of the Mortal Death Army, right?”
“It is difficult to accept the title Daehyup. “Please just call me Commander Moyong or Commander Yeon.”
“All right.”
This one bowed its head.
“We left the entire base empty. The host will be stationed permanently for three days, and five workers will provide accommodation. “No one will be able to cross this place, so don’t worry and get some rest before leaving.”
“Thank you.”
“no. “It’s actually an honor for us to be able to help.”
This took me a few steps back.
“If you need anything, please let me know right away. “If you do it, that’s enough.”
Slurp.
He passed through the first floor like a ghost.
It was a magical law so mysterious that even after seeing it with my own eyes, I couldn’t tell where or how it escaped. Kang-ryang stuck out his tongue.
“I heard that the martial arts of openness were nothing but empty, but now that I see it, it’s truly amazing.”
Yeon Ho-jeong nodded.
“Heo Heo-sil-sil is close to the sarcasm of luxury people who only looked at the external appearance. “Open’s true martial arts skills are not lacking at all to represent Baekdo Martial Arts.”
“As expected, there are many strong people in the world and many great martial artists.”
“yes.”
Yeon Ho-jeong said to the West Station priestess.
“You must have been very injured and exhausted. They say you’re in a hurry, but I think it’s a bad handshake to move too hard in this situation. “Please rest here for a few days and take care of yourself first.”
“Ah… yes yes! Thank you.”
“no.”
Yeon Ho-jeong said to Kang Ryang.
“I will come after I wash up and take care of myself. “You may be tired, but I would like you to stand as a guard in front of Shin’s room for just two people.”
Kang Ryang whetted his appetite.
“I haven’t done anything right, so of course I have to do it. Don’t worry, take care of your wounds first. “I will stand as your guard until tomorrow morning.”
“Okay, thank you.”
So the group dispersed to their respective residences.
“Okay.”
As soon as I entered the room, Yeon Ho-jeong leaned back on the bed.
“Damn, it’s been a long time since I’ve been treated this aggressively.”
Clap! Clap!
He took off his pauldrons, armored gaiters, and breastplate and took off his shirt.
While moving here, I constantly repaired my body with real energy, but the wounds did not heal properly, probably because I was in such severe shock.
“I need to wash up first.”
In an emergency situation, it would not be a good idea to immediately put a bandage on an injury. He knew that from experience.
Yeon Ho-jeong, who came out after taking a bath for the first time in a while, sat down on the floor and held up a white bandage.
At that time, I heard a shout outside the door.
“Student. “Can I come in?”
“come in.”
It rattled.
The door opened and silence came in.
Her eyes wavered.
“You’re hurt really badly.”
Yeon Ho-jeong laughed bitterly.
“That’s right. You’ve arrived just in time. Maybe because my shoulder was injured, it was very difficult to bandage it. “Come and wind it up for me.”
“is it so.”
After a while, Mukbi sprinkled Geumchang medicine all over Yeonhojeong’s body.
Bubbling.
When the Geumchang medicine touched the wound, a whitish foam formed.
It was a sight that conveyed bitterness just by looking at it. But there was no change in Yeon Ho-jeong’s expression.
Mukbi silently wrapped the bandage.
Yeon Ho-jeong also said nothing and was only looking ahead.
How much time has passed like that?
“Yeon Gongja.”
“huh.”
“Is there something holding you back?”
“….”
“Ever since I met the Western Station Priestess Gi Eui-ui, something seems strange. “I don’t think Commander Moryong and Kang Ryang notice.”
“Stay silent.”
“yes. “Tell me.”
“Do you trust me?”
It wasn’t meant to be passed off as a joke.
Mukbi spoke in a calm voice.
“You are one of the two people I trust the most in the world.”
“…thanks.”
“But why are you doing this all of a sudden?”
“I don’t think it’s right to ask someone who trusts me to do something like this, but I have no choice but to ask you.”
“…?”
“If anything, it really shouldn’t be like that.”
“yes?”
Yeon Ho-jeong’s eyes grew cold.
“When I give the signal, shoot Ki Woo-hee.”
