Login Murim Episode 1023
Huh, black.
As you walk up the steep slope without even saying anything, white breath comes out from all over the place.
The environment of Daeseolsan Mountain (大雪LU), which is cold and oxygen-poor all year round, is as cold as midwinter, and did not make exceptions for those trying to protect this land.
No, perhaps these adverse conditions could have been applied more harshly to our troops.
“Cough. “Hmm.”
Is it because we entered the highlands? Or is it because of my aging body? Just as I was about to give instructions to Namho, who was coughing repeatedly and breathing heavily, there was someone who walked up to him one step ahead.
“Calm your breathing and relax your body.”
Special •
With a calm voice, a hand touches the Myeongmunhyeol (命門 穴). At the same time, a weak energy was seething around Namho.
Wow.
Namho’s complexion, which had been gradually turning pale, became much more relaxed.
He, who had regained his original complexion thanks to the power injected through Myeongmun blood, grumbled as usual, as if he had never done that before.
“Damn it. It’s a sin to be old. Anyway, thank you for helping me…”
The voice disperses without being able to finish.
Nam-ho, who had just turned around to express his gratitude, blurted out his words inadvertently, and Sima-pyo, who was standing behind him, asked with a blunt expression.
“Why are you doing this, is it some kind of problem?”
But the panic was fleeting, and the old agent’s response was quick and natural.
“huh? No, what is the problem? “It just seemed like something was moving over there.” “there?”
Just as Sima Pyo turned his head to follow the direction Namho indicated, a small shadow that had been crouching behind a dry tree jumped out and crossed the snow field.
“It was a hare. “No need to worry.”
“is it? Well, there’s no way they could have sneaked in here. “The problem is that as you get older, you worry more.”
Namho responded slyly, looking at me and licking his lips.
“It looks like he’s old, seeing as he’s barely out of breath this much. If he were just ten years younger, no more, no less, he would have been in the forefront. Don’t you think?” The more a person knows, the more pronounced his or her reaction will be.
Nevertheless, I responded in a calm tone to Namho, who flexibly hid his emotions.
“Are you senile? “It would be easy to rejuvenate for thirty years, not ten years.”
This is not an answer simply to get over the current situation naturally. If you look around right now, you will see a bunch of people panting and climbing up the snowy mountain.
‘It’s something that can’t be helped. ‘I prioritized quantity over quality.’
No matter how large the area of Gansu Province is, it is ultimately just a province.
Nevertheless, the reason we were able to attract such a huge number of 30,000 people was because we accepted many people, even half-hearted people, during the recruitment process.
From a young boy who has finally started to get dark under his nose, to a third-rate swordsman who has grown old after wandering around the back alleys his entire life.
There were people everywhere whose lives were threatened by someone or who wondered if they had ever killed someone. To put it in one word, they are like small fish, no different from prey for other predators in this huge ocean called Murim.
Of course, I don’t despise them.
I have neither the qualifications nor the intention to do so.
Because I was once the underdog too. Moreover, even at this moment, I am still just a weakling to someone else.
However, what I am truly concerned about is that we will have to face the might of the dark world with this bloated force.
furthermore······.
‘The majority of them are Safain.’
Someone said that.
Whether it’s a white cat or a black cat, as long as it catches mice well, that’s it.
I also agree with the statement itself.
Because history has already proven it.
The Great War was a decisive moment for the great unification of the world’s martial arts world, and during the modern cataclysm of the past, even the infamous Mexican drug cartels joined the government forces and fought against monsters.
In this way, the appearance of an external enemy can turn yesterday’s enemy into today’s ally.
However, what was important in the current situation was who was wearing the bells around the necks of the countless black cats and what their true intentions were.
‘Dark Night King Sima Gong.’
The largest and most powerful black cat that survived the Battle of Jeongma, and another leader who currently rules the Sa Sect martial arts.
If he already has other feelings, the crushing defeat at Dunhuang and the fall of the Communist Party are just part of a process that was decided long ago.
And at the end of the series, a new sky called Dark Heaven will be waiting for everyone.
‘That must be prevented. ‘Whatever it takes.’
As I mentally thought about it, I glanced behind me.
Sima Pyo, who was walking silently, felt that moment’s gaze and gave a small greeting.
It was a time when it felt like a large rock was pressing down on my chest, even though it looked no different from usual. Fasssssuk.
Dozens of trees outside, bare trees without even a single leaf on them, died down at the same time, and a group of people appeared.
With hundreds of silver arrowheads flashing between the tree branches.
However, the momentary wariness soon subsided with someone shouting. “Put down your bow. “These are the brothers of Gansu martial arts!”
Of course, not all of them were like that.
“atmosphere. “You must never let down your guard until my order is given!”
A loud voice and rugged armor to match.
The moment I saw the figure of a heavily armored man with a helmet all covered up, two words suddenly crossed my mind. ‘Military gate.’
Sabak, Sabak.
Stylish movements despite wearing heavy armor.
Sima Gong, who was in charge of the vanguard, opened his mouth to the man who had narrowed the distance by about a dozen lengths by walking at a pace that was neither too fast nor too slow.
No, it would be more accurate to say that he was trying to open his mouth.
The man who passed by Sima Gong as naturally as water looked straight at me and asked this.
“May I ask your name?” “Oh, how cruel! “Do you know who this person is and how dare you demand an answer!”
Obviously, that wasn’t my answer.
Before I could say anything, Hyuk Moo-jin stepped forward and raised the silver plate in his hand with great arrogance… No, wait a minute. When did you take that again?
“As for this person, he is the third duke of the Great Taiyuan Jin family, the loser of Shanxi Province, and the Jeong Cheonho of the Jingui Committee that protects the imperial family of the great country, and was personally appointed by His Majesty the Majesty the Emperor…
“Chief officer, Lieutenant Commander of Gansu Province, Bucheonho, Hongpyo!”
A shout that was almost like a roar swallowed up Hyuk Moo-jin’s voice, and his knees, which were like iron towers, bent.
thud.
With a dull noise, the man, or Hongpyo, who got down on one knee, gave a powerful military salute to me.
“I understand Sangsanhu (上LUB)!” “I know what happens after giving birth!” Hundreds of cries crossing the cool snow field.
Only then did Hyuk Mu-jin tremble at the sight of the government soldiers taking away their bows and weapons and kneeling and prostrating themselves in unison, following Hongpyo.
“Ugh. Ugh. Ahhh.”
“······What is that strange noise?”
“Captain. “It looks like it’s going to be cheap.”
What are you packing, you crazy guy?
As I sighed and shook my head, I made eye contact with Sima Gong, who was looking at me with strange eyes, and I took a small bite.
“Mujin.”
‘yes?”
“Just cum. “Refresh.”
At that moment, Hyuk Mu-jin answered with a straight face.
“What are you packing? That’s what they say.”
From now on, I will do that in front of my subordinates.
Please don’t use breaking words. You must maintain your dignity as a powerful ruler. “Otherwise it looks vulgar.”
I want to kill you, really.
* * *
Hong Pyo, a man with the long title of Gansu Province Commander-in-Chief Bu Cheon-ho, was a bear-like man.
To put it in a good way, he is honest, but in a bad way, he is inflexible and so inflexible that he is clumsy.
To sum it up in one word… ‘Should I call him Unlucky Jeongho-gun?’ When Hansi thought of Jeong Ho-gun, the Cheonho of the Geumuiwi, who had to be left behind due to urgent circumstances, Hong Pyo was a person who resembled him but was clearly different from him.
And the biggest reason why I was able to say so clearly about Hongpyo’s personality, which I only learned about for the first time today, may have been none other than his attitude toward Sima Gong.
“You are the Bucheonho of those rumors. When it comes to carrying out public duties, he is more thorough than anyone else in the world.
Hongpyo, who had been watching absentmindedly as Master Magong spoke to him with a soft smile despite having been ignored once before, opened his mouth.
“Hope.”
“huh?”
“Please present your card. “I will first verify your identity according to the procedures.”
“······Present your trophy, are you really telling me to do so?”
To the question filled with pure doubt, Hong Pyo nodded without hesitation.
“That’s right.”
“Maybe you don’t know who I am?”
“I saw him once from a distance during the Lord of Seong’s 60th birthday party the year before last. “I asked my superior, Wijiwi Sanari, and he said he was the lord of the Black Dragon Demon Gate.”
“Right. “You just need to know.”
“What happens? That was then, and now is now. The mission of the main office is to protect the 300 or so streets in this area and verify the identities of those passing by. That’s all. “Sangsanhu has already gone through that process.”
I buy it as if I’m going to meet some strange person
Hongpyo stared at the magician and frowned.
“Don’t make me say it twice. “You look older than me, so I will understand that your tongue has been cut in half, but if you continue to disobey me, it won’t be fun for the old man either.”
The reason I felt that the air around me was frozen for a moment was not only because this was a large snow mountain covered in permanent snow. Who is Sima Gong?
He is the head of the Black Dragon Demon Gate who exerts enormous influence on the martial arts world of Gansu. In terms of his position and power, he is comparable to that of the lord of the castle.
In short, he is a talented person from Gansukseong who has strong connections to both the martial arts and government affairs.
But when he asks for a battle flag, he mentions the old seal.
That alone was enough to surprise everyone, but Heungpyo didn’t stop there and went one step further. s
“I said it clearly. “Not twice.”
It was a time when Sima Gong and everyone around him were speechless at the sight of Hong Pyo taking out the iron gun that was tied to his waist with a soft addition.
“Hahahaha! That’s right, that’s right!”
The sound of laughter echoing loudly. Cheon Gang, who was laughing and holding her belly button, looked at Hong Pyo.
“If you are a man, you must be faithful to your duties. So, what is your name?”
Hongpyo answered Jeokcheongang’s question full of goodwill.
“Hope.”
“······Yes?”
“Prepare your battle flags, too. “Because you are next after this old man.”
”······!”
“Ah, and a pass too. “It’s very suspicious that everything from the hair down is red.”
In the silence that seemed to suffocate everyone at any moment, Hyukmujin, who was shaking, whispered in a voice quieter than the sound of an ant.
“Captain. “I think it’s really cheap.” But before I could reply, there was a sound that echoed like an echo beyond the pure white mountain ridge stretching out in the distance.
Thump, thud, thump!
The sound of drums filled with urgency.
The sound of war drums echoed through the snow-covered mountains.
