Chapter 460
It was bad weather in many ways.
The river of Dongting Lake, which swallowed dozens of ships and lives last night, was rough, and the wind blowing from far away was violent.
And it seems that launching the boat in such weather conditions was a bad choice even with the thought of an old sailor who looked at Dong Dong Lake as if he were looking at his own palm.
“I can’t do it, Schoenne.”
Those were the first words of the boatman, who clearly had the impression that he had been forcibly drawn from the beginning. He spoke with a worried face.
“The places the nobles want to go are especially narrow and rough in Dongting Lake… … . Even more so on a day like this.”
“So I am asking the sailor. Even if merchant ships or military ships cannot enter, it will be possible with a sturdy boat driven by the most skillful boatman on Dongting Lake.”
“No matter how much you say… …
“Sailor?”
“Yes, yes?”
“Please.”
A man is a man no matter how old he is.
The old boatman, mesmerized by Hongran’s quiet voice and dazzling beauty, came to his senses only after he boarded the boat.
“I’m crazy, I’m crazy. Last night, knowing that Sadal had come, but still setting the boat afloat. What are you going to do on the day you meet Eunyeonggwi…
Eunyoung ears?
Unfamiliar words are mixed in the grumbling that pierces your ears. Turning my head, I met the eyes of the terrified sailor.
He swallowed his saliva before answering.
“He is literally like a ghost. There have been a number of sailors who have been victimized by him lately. A guy I’ve known for a long time also went out at night to earn a few extra bucks, and then stopped… …
The old boatman stared at the rolling river of Dongdong Lake with deep fear in his eyes.
“Anyway, it’s called the Eunyeonggwi because it can’t see its shadow and dies. This is Schönne’s trivial opinion, but it’s clear that what’s happening these days is also his fault. Everything is the work of that demon.”
The gunsmith clicked his tongue and intervened.
“What is a demon? See you, sailor. Do you think I’ve heard such a story once or twice? If all those words were true, half of the fish in the world would be man-faced fish, and the mountains would be teeming with thousand-year-old white tigers and dragons.”
“This is a truth without any lies. The wrath of the Heavenly Man continues, so the spirit of Dongting Lake must have been angry.”
“Not enough demons, even spirits? That’s it. Let’s not talk.”
“No, it’s something that every sailor in Hubei Province has heard of… … .”
“Do I look like a sailor?”
“It’s not like that. Anyone can see it, isn’t it common among beggars?”
“Oh, that’s true, but I’m suddenly pissed off.”
“Hey, fix it. nobleman. This old man is guilty of only telling what he has been told.”
The old sailor’s voice was full of resentment.
He has lived as a sailor all his life in Murim, where all sorts of legends and superstitions are considered true.
Maybe that’s why the boatman seemed to firmly believe that the recent heinous incidents were the work of a demon called Eunyeonggwi.
‘Coming to think of it, it’s not very nonsense.’
Looking at Hongran and Cheongpung’s expressions, they seemed to have the same thoughts as me.
As soon as their eyes met, the two opened their mouths at the same time.
“Beloved, by any chance… … .”
“Eunin, the Eunyeonggwi that the boatman is talking about… …
“Wait a minute, you both know what you want to say, so you don’t have to. And even if you die soon, if you want to call yourself a benefactor, say it in turn. confused.”
Musae, a benefactor who is daunting even with one, has increased.
Sometimes, whenever I do this, I feel like I have become a great person.
No, but Hongran saved his life, so even so, does that person in Cheongpung intend to serve as a benefactor for the rest of his life just because he gave him a few pieces of sugar when he was hungry?
I sighed and continued.
“Yes, there is a high probability that Eunyeong-gwi is a sympathizer. Or those who take advantage of the chaos to plunder.”
“That’s right, that’s what I was trying to say. Benefactor.”
Don’t be defeated by the blue wind, Hongran also nods.
“Even the angel thinks so. benefactor.”
“No, only one person at a time.”
In any case, the odds of a mere natural accident were slim.
From what I’ve heard so far, not only are there not one or two dead sailors, but the old sailor’s words in the next moment also add to the credibility.
“Come to think of it, the points where the dead sailors disappeared are all the same. uh? Wait, the place you are trying to go is also around that area… …
The old boatman stopped for a moment and slowly raised his head.
He looked at us one after another without saying a word
Go, I quietly put down the oar I was holding to start and got up.
“Where are you going?”
The old boatman laughed awkwardly at my question.
“Well, I forgot to see Sophie.”
“Mujin-ah.”
“Yes, Captain.”
“The boatman is hungry for Sophie.”
11 Is that so?”
Now if you pretend, you pretend.
Compared to myself, I’m like a giant
When Hyuk Mu-jin stopped him, the old boatman’s eyes became moist like a calf being led to a slaughterhouse.
“Are you still drinking?”
The boatman shook his head at Hyuk Moo-jin’s low voice.
“… … Come to think of it, it’s not hard.”
“I hope it’s fine. Don’t worry too much, I’ll let you go before anything you’re concerned about happens.”
I’m sorry that I seem to have done something wrong to the old boatman, but in order to get to Dongdongeoong’s residence, the role of a skillful guide was essential.
The place we want to go is a narrow road where only a few boats can pass.
Even if the government department mobilizes a fleet of hundreds of ships and tens of thousands of government troops, it will not be possible to enter, and it will be nothing more than a heavy burden.
‘If there is a battle with Dongdongeoong, the sacrifices will only increase.’
In preparation for flight, the government officials thoroughly sealed off the roads leading to Dongdong Lake and the Yangtze River, and it was best for me and a small number of elites, including Cheongpung, to chase down Dongdongeoong and capture or kill it.
And as much as the treatment of Dong Dong Ong
The important thing is that there should be no more useless sacrifices.
After thinking about it, I suddenly opened my mouth.
“Hyuk Moo-jin, Gung-gi-bang, Hong So-jeo. three people
“I don’t like it.”
“Where is the dog barking?”
“I’ll add my little strength too.”
I am speechless at the answer that pops out before I even finish talking. Hyuk Moo-jin and Gung-gi-bang clicked their tongues at my appearance.
“Obvious. It’s obvious.”
“It’s clear what you’re trying to say.”
“How do you get back here? His name is the in-house captain.”
“The same is true of me. The afterglow of the great opening can’t be this frightening.”
“The captain told me to leave unconditionally if anything seemed dangerous. Anyway, this is the captain’s characteristic. Jo Teuk.”
“It’s surprisingly new breasts.”
“By the way, why did the palace sohyeop sleep earlier?
Do you follow my words? It really bothers me.”
“Why is this bastard arguing with me when he’s doing well? Did the liver come out of the boat?”
“Beggar special. O ” 口 ?
“… … No, have you ever seen someone worse than a dog like this?”
“Anyway, I follow whatever the captain says. When I was young, a fortuneteller saw my fortune teller, and he told me that I would live well, enjoy wealth and fame, and live well until I was over 100 years old. There is no way I will die today.”
The gunggibang, looking at Hyuk Moo-jin’s boastful words in amazement, shook his head.
“Whoops. don’t talk And I have the same thoughts as the hyukga, so don’t even think about leaving. I, too, have inherited the season of openness. Even if it’s not as bad as you or the Qing So-hyeop, there’s no problem in saving this life.”
I can’t speak, only my lips
It was buzzing.
In fact, both of them were not at the level of being ignored anywhere.
Even though Hyuk Moo-jin started learning martial arts relatively late, he grew explosively through crises with me, and Gung-ki Bang is the owner of excellent qualities enough to become a rearguard and a peak master who has reached maturity.
‘But I’m afraid.’
Losing someone close to you. I am afraid that the past of that day will repeat itself once again.
When I was hesitating, a blue wind suddenly came
I opened my mouth.
“Benefactor. If the benefactor goes, I can follow her to the end of hell.”
“The Qing Dynasty.”
“Don’t say no. I am also a proud man and a warrior.”
“The Qing Dynasty.”
Cheongpung smiled slightly and shook his head.
“Benefactor, don’t say anything. Just as much as I believe in you, benefactors can trust us.”
“No, that’s not it, you are unconditionally
I’m going with you, so why bother… …
“oh. iced coffee… …
“Don’t talk nonsense and sit down. Don’t break the atmosphere.”
“… … yes. benefactor.”
Laughter burst out at the sullen look of the guy. I nodded my head towards Hyuk Mu-jin and Gung Gi-bang.
“Keep in mind one thing. Follow my judgment under any circumstances. Even if it is an order to abandon me and run away.”
“Chief. that… …
Hesitantly, Hyuk Moo-jin’s side was stabbed by the gunsmith.
“Then, keep that in mind. The same goes for the revolutionary, right?”
“yes? Ah, yes.”
It was a situation where I could see clearly, but I pretended not to know.
I would do my best to prevent that from happening, and I was confident in getting them out of harm’s way.
However, the last one left is in trouble.
“You already know what I am talking about. Yes?”
Hongran’s red lips slowly opened.
“You will need someone to point you the right way.”
“it’s okay. According to Sojeo Hong, the best boatman in Dongdong Lake is with you.
“What if an unexpected variable happens?”
“I will handle it well.”
“Even though I’m shabby compared to my benefactor and others, I too have reached the top level… …
“I know. And the fact that the first-class master held on to the sturdy man while he was submerged in the river for more than a few hours, and only came to his senses after half an hour.”
Hongran, who was stabbed to the point, gently bit her lip.
She would know better than anyone else.
Being able to behave like now and fighting fierce battles are two completely different matters.
“I guess I have to watch it again. I am.”
“This time too?”
“Yes. Long ago then, last night. And now.”
After reading the question in my eyes, Hongran smiled. It was a more bitter laugh than any I had ever seen.
“How long does a girl who lost her family and parents overnight remain as she is now?… A lot happened.”
“ah.”
“Excuse me for a minute.”
She looked up at me with sparkling eyes and reached out with a low voice.
My thin, white fingers brushed the tangled hair and neck, and my body trembled involuntarily.
“Sojeo Hong, what is this… …
“It’s all done. Oh, much better. Would you like to take a look?”
When I follow Hongran’s fingers and look down, someone’s figure is reflected in the clear river of Dongdong Lake.
Neatly arranged hair and a beautiful silver hairpin in place.
When I look up, I see the face of Hong Ran, who is smiling brightly.
“A benefactor, no, a true Daehyeop (大俠)
Her loose hair swayed softly in the wind. She oscillates, flutters, then becomes brilliant before she knows it.
“I wish you luck.”
A low voice slowly faded away from my ears.
Leaving behind Hongran’s turning back, the boatman’s oars vigorously rowed the river.
