Episode 408
Shake it up (2)
“Huh! “Huh!”
How long did it run?
I ran so frantically that I forgot the distance and time. I had almost all of Guangdong’s geography memorized, but due to my urgency, I couldn’t even figure out where this place was.
“Cough!”
Now I didn’t have any strength left.
A man lying in front of a stream vomited blood on the ground.
The color of the blood was dark red. A foul smell mixed with the thick bloody smell.
‘this…!’
Yayuljeok’s eyes wavered.
Cheeeeeeeek!
White smoke rose from the blood-soaked ground. There is poison mixed in the blood.
It was a shame because his blood vessels were protected by the Water King’s Relics. If he had been even a little negligent, the poison would have spread throughout his body and he would have died.
Especially when it comes to this poison!
‘Death flower pattern!!’
There was no shortage of people saying that Sahwamun, made from a rare poisonous plant found only in western Guangdong, was extremely poisonous.
It is a poison that even wild beasts, which are resistant to most poisons, cannot easily deal with. The dagger that was stabbed in the chest had the same Sahwamun symbol on it.
‘This guy…!’
The good news is that it is not perfectly manufactured. As an eumshin, there were several secret techniques that he did not pass on to his disciples, and one of them was the Sahwamun.
He’s definitely an amazing guy, making and using a poison he wasn’t even taught about.
Phew!
He, who had obtained the Water King Sagi, immediately raised the Eumsinjigi. When it comes to poison, the Yin God’s Qi was much safer than the Beast King’s True Qi.
“Ugh!”
Sharp pain arose throughout the blood vessels. It meant that the Eumsinjigi was driving out Sahwamun.
Cheeeeeeeek!
Dark green smoke rose from Yayuljeok’s body.
How long has it been like that?
“Whoop!”
Finally, Yayuljeok breathed a sigh of relief. All of the Sahwamun were extracted.
But the sacrifices made because of it were too great. Three percent of the existing eumsinjigi were lost because they were pulled out in conjunction with Sahwamun.
It’s unfortunate, but I couldn’t help it. If I hadn’t pulled it out along with my inner energy, I would have died without being able to decipher it.
“Damn it!”
bang!
The enemy’s fist dug into the ground.
‘I can’t believe I can’t kill them.’
It’s amazing that I couldn’t kill him, but it’s been a long time since I almost died.
If I hadn’t escaped, there was a 100% chance I would have died. He read in Yeon Ho-jeong’s eyes a terrifying determination to never let go of him.
Yayuljeok’s eyes deepened.
Is it because they buried the Water King Sagi and brought up the Eumsinjigi? My head felt even colder.
‘He knew us well.’
In fact, when I heard from Firefighter that he would completely destroy the blood and evil field, I was skeptical.
But not now. The guy knew that it was the Beast King’s fraud just by revealing his true spirit, and he even blocked all of the Beast King’s white strikes with a half-beat fast defense technique.
It was surprising that he had risen to the level of life and death, but it was even more surprising that he knew this martial arts thoroughly.
‘Could it be… is there a Sejak at our school?!’
Yayuljeok shook his head without realizing it.
It was safe to say that there was no chance of that happening. If Sejak had been there, he would have known that Saeumgyo had been targeting the midfield for a long time, but judging from the Murim Alliance’s response, that was definitely not the case.
‘Then what is it? What on earth is this guy? ‘Why do you know so much about us?’
I felt dizzy.
After thinking for a while, Yayuljeok shook his head.
“no. “Now is not the time to worry about that.”
What is important is that you suffered and there is a possibility that the main camp suffered as well.
I had to find out about that first. If the main base really falls into the hands of the enemy, things will get very complicated.
‘It could be that he just said it to scare me. Even if that wasn’t the case, there is a high probability that they would have fallen into the trap I set and been killed.’
Yayuljeok took out a small ring from his arms.
It would be nice if it were a level of elixir, but it wasn’t that level. However, it was a medicine that was particularly effective in quickly treating internal injuries and restoring internal strength.
In that way, he ate Yeongdan and prayed for half a day. It is better to treat the body first and move than to move without treatment in time because the mind is in a hurry.
next day.
Yayuljeok, who entered the city near Yongmun, Guangdong, immediately summoned an informant.
Slurp.
In a dark alley, a young man wearing a hood knelt in front of the night guard.
“See you Yazoo.”
Yayuljeok’s eyes deepened.
He noticed that the guy’s voice was shaking slightly. Even though he is an assassin who has been thoroughly trained not to let his emotions waver, the fact that he reacts like this is probably proof that things are not going well.
“Tell me everything you know about what happened over the past two days.”
“yes.”
After a while.
After hearing the young man’s explanation, Yayuljeok’s face became distorted.
“…The Wild City fell into their hands?”
“That’s right.”
“how? A thousand men are encamped there. “You’re saying you gathered only the elite of the elite and they all died?”
“That’s not it.”
“if?”
“Among them, Gu Hal’s troops came down from the mountain to look for Lord Yaju.”
Yayuljeok was shocked.
“You came down to look for me? Who on earth gave such an order?!”
“…It’s Yaju.”
“What?”
“There was a request for support from Yaju on the information network. “The exact location is unknown, but since the request came from the northwest, all assassins except for the minimum number of troops were dispatched.”
“Nonsense! “I have never once asked for support…!”
For a moment, Yayuljeok was speechless.
‘Information disruption!!’
If the Murim League’s remnant troops had entered Guangdong, an intelligence unit would have been dispatched to support them.
‘It’s open!’
Disrupting information to the extent that the assassins under his command were deceived was impossible without openness.
The young man continued.
“However, because communication was lost in the middle, nine hundred assassins are currently waiting 300 miles away.”
You won’t be able to fool this information network twice.
But regardless of whether it was open or not, a single information disruption would have been enough for them.
‘Ablood-free. We take out most of the troops in the main camp and easily recapture the main camp…’
The enemy of Yayul burst out in empty laughter.
‘I was completely defeated.’
I never thought the main camp would fall into the hands of the enemy so vainly.
He reigned as the king of Guangdong Province for well over ten years. During those years, he was consolidating his power and weakening the power of the Baekdo Martial Army, but he never thought this day would come.
‘If the main camp fell into their hands… they wouldn’t have fallen into a trap.’
I know everything.
They were watching everything to see how they would move from here. Otherwise, it would have been impossible to come up with such a coherent strategy.
‘It’s him.’
The person who came to mind was Yeon Ho-jeong.
‘The culprit behind this is not the Murim Alliance’s servants or soldiers. The person directly commanding the operation at the scene was watching everything.’
At that moment, Yayuljeok felt goosebumps growing all over his body.
“What a monster…!!”
“yes?”
The young man asked back, but Yayuljeok could not pay attention to him.
‘You’re completely crazy! It’s amazing that he achieved that level of martial arts skills at that age, but is he able to completely read the enemy’s movements?’
scary.
At this point, I was more afraid of the guy’s brains and wit than the martial arts skills.
No matter how strong you are in martial arts, your position as a leader ends. However, those who are sharp, resourceful, and able to read the flow of events can go beyond that.
For a moment, I felt my vision becoming dark.
‘If he really saw through all of this and responded to it, he should be called a military god.’
I heard that sometimes geniuses beyond imagination appear in the world.
But isn’t this too much? How can a young man under 30 have this much ability?
‘What should I do?’
If the main camp was occupied, it must be said that all kinds of elixirs and information documents stored there were stolen.
In addition, in the wild area of the main camp, they are raising special Jeon Seo-eungs who can contact Saeumgyo on a regular basis. There are many ways to contact Saeumgyo even if it is not Jeon Seo-eung, but the speed of information delivery is extremely slow.
Yayuljeok bit his lip.
‘There is no choice. You absolutely have to infiltrate. ‘You must report all current situations to the school.’
It would be difficult to avoid responsibility for bringing things to this point. Perhaps he could be beheaded.
But his own death was not a big deal. Didn’t this end up ruining the history of Saeumgyo?
‘One day… I’ll search all over the wilderness, but I won’t be able to penetrate all the secret passages in just one day.’
At that moment, what came to Yayuljeok’s mind was Sima Xuan.
‘If he had joined hands with the Murim Alliance, he could have announced the existence of a secret passage. But he was also mortally wounded. It will be difficult to come to your senses in a day or two.’
In other words, it can be said to be a race against time. I had to infiltrate Yaseong as quickly as possible and inform Saeumgyo of the situation.
Yayuljeok said to the young man.
“Is there anything else worth mentioning?”
“there is.”
Of course, I thought it would be said that there was no such thing. Yayuljeok’s heart is pounding! I felt like I was falling.
“What? What happened again?”
“Rather than something happening, unusual people entered Guangdong.”
“who?”
“They are people from the Shaolin side.”
“…!!”
Yayuljeok’s eyes lit up.
Since the Murim League sent a Yu military unit, it would not be strange for Shaolin monks to come.
Nevertheless, this issue could not be overlooked lightly. Shaolin’s name was so heavy.
“Among them, the Shaolin monks headed into the wilderness. “It appeared that he was acting in conjunction with Yu’s army.”
“Right.”
“And the one remaining headed to Foshan. And we were able to clearly identify that person.”
“Who are you?”
“This is Lee Cheol-gyeong, the master of the Diamond Kwon Gate.”
Lee Cheol-gyeong was a genius martial arts expert who passed down the secret techniques of the headquarters, which was rare among Shaolin lay disciples.
Of course, he was not a person worthy of the Yayuljeok’s eyes. Even though he is a genius, he is not a monster like Yeon Ho-jeong.
What was important was Bulsan, not Lee Cheol-kyung.
‘If it’s Foshan… no way?’
Yayuljeok’s eyes trembled slightly.
‘Are you trying to summon unidentified experts?!’
It has been less than half a year since I learned that Buddhist monks gathered in Foshan.
This fact was also reported to Saeumgyo Church. However, since there were people from Shaolin there, I couldn’t approach them properly. This is because if you make a mistake, a major disaster may occur.
Shaolin’s name was so scary. So much so that even the Yaryuljeok, who are fanatical about the power of Saeumgyo, cannot easily touch it.
However, when the situation progressed like this, the story changed.
“The elites under my command are waiting 300 miles away from here?”
“That’s right.”
“Summon them all. “Don’t leave anything behind, everything!”
“Where shall I summon you?”
“Call it wild. “We will regain the king’s stolen land.”
The young man’s eyes lit up.
“I obey Yaju’s orders.”
“Tell them to move as secretly as possible. You must never be discovered by the enemy. “Contact the Armed Forces separately and order them to find the suspected enemy information network and completely paralyze it.”
“All right.”
Slurp.
The young man disappeared like fog.
Yayuljeok growled softly.
“I did it once, but I can’t help it twice. Now that it’s like this, I’ll start a war.”
