Login Murim Episode 860
Murim people are like weeds. It lives tenaciously, even in dark back alleys, along bright streets, in the mountains, and somewhere along the wide Yangtze River.
Perhaps that is why the world they live in came to be called martial arts.
Ruthless people who ignore common sense and laws.
However, even though the Murim people cultivated their own forests with sharply forged spear knives, not all of them were able to grow into giant trees.
In this huge forest called Moorim, the two trees that can be called giants are Gupailbang and Oh Daesae. And although it is not yet that level, there are only a few forces that have established themselves as the losers of one province.
‘Taewonjinga is one of them.’
I muttered to myself and looked out the window.
A merchant in the midst of soliciting customers. A woodcutter passes by, sweating profusely and carrying a load of firewood. From ordinary-looking civilians to high-ranking people dressed in silk clothes.
Although there were numerous groups of humans forming a single society, certain types of people who had been seen everywhere until now were rarely seen.
“You won’t be able to find it, right?”
“yes?”
“The martial people. “Just like Confucius”
Hongjin read my thoughts exactly and smiled with a white powdered face.
“I’m telling you in advance for fear of wasting my energy, but it will be hard to find in Jiangsu Province.
“I heard a vague story, but is it because it’s close to the imperial capital?”
“It probably won’t have any impact. Because we cannot allow such robbers to set up near the imperial capital where the Emperor resides.
Hongjin added, looking at me and Hyukmujin.
“For fear of being misunderstood, this is the opinion of high-ranking people. “The higher you go, the more important you are about face.”
It feels like it was just lip service for fear of hurting my feelings, but even if you don’t do it, it’s understandable to some extent.
Well, strictly speaking, among the martial arts people, there are more than one or two who are just leaving.
However, just because it is close to the ecliptic does not explain everything.
The question Hyuk Moo-jin suddenly asked the next moment was in the same context.
“Then what is the Nangong family that is proudly established in Anhui? “The distance itself is not that far from the ecliptic.”
“Before answering that question, should I ask you the opposite? “Of the areas adjacent to the imperial capital, what is left if we exclude the Nangong family in Anhui?”
“Except for the Namgung family. That’s why talent- ♦”
Hongjin let out a small laugh at the sight of Hyukmujin not being able to easily continue speaking.
“no. Gangseo. Fujian. Jiangsu. Anhui. Among the four provinces surrounding Zhejiang Province, where the imperial capital is located, there is only one famous Wulin sect: Nangongse. “Of course, there are some exceptions.”
“Exception?”
“huh. What can I say? If you just look at history, it seems like it would be very dangerous, but that doesn’t mean the imperial family would bother to mess with it. Hyuk, don’t you know?”
Hyuk Moo-jin, who was lost in thought and frowning, answered.
“If you look closely, you will find a few sects, but are there such sects? “Anyway, compared to the Nangong family of Anhui, it would be worse than a horse’s balls.”
“Hyuk Muin, I don’t have balls.”
“Ah, sorry.”
“no. There’s no need to apologize that much. I just felt weird listening to it. Anyway, you’re saying there really isn’t one, right?”
“yes. of course.”
That moment. I hit Hyuk Moo-jin on the back of the head, who answered confidently. Sigh!
“Yeolhwamun! 개새끼야. “Yeolhwamun!” “100 million! “Ugh!”
“Anhui Province’s Jiuhua Mountain! Long history of 300 years! Is Yeolhwamun worse than a horse’s balls?
“Yeolhwamun looks like a piece of junk!”
Since then, it has been two years since Kweedo joined Yeolhwamoon and he is steadily going through the process of becoming a successor. At that time, when I was beating up Hyuk Mu-jin using my burning loyalty to the company, Hong Jin quietly opened his mouth.
“Hey, Prince Jin. I’m sorry…
“Ah, I’m sorry. “You didn’t have that either.” “No, that’s not it. I’m afraid Your Majesty will wake up from his sleep. And just because you’re a eunuch doesn’t mean you don’t have both. “I think I said this once before.”
“sorry again. “I forgot you didn’t have one.”
“······is it so. Please be careful. “Keep your voice low so as not to wake your highness.”
Hong Jin, who answered with a half-given expression, looked at Sangsan King Joo-pyo, who was sleeping peacefully, and continued speaking.
“In any case, the Wulin people were not able to gain much ground not only in Zhejiang Province but also in the provinces adjacent to the imperial capital. “We had to mobilize all of our connections not only with the Sima Mao Island, which is commonly secreted, but also with the high-ranking officials of the Namgung family, who are members of the Five Great Families, the major figures of the political faction.”
“Was it that bad?”
“yes. It’s a long time ago since it happened right after the founding of the country, but it’s still a situation that continues to this day. Well, no matter how rough the martial arts people were, they would not have wanted to follow in the footsteps of the Mosan faction (芽111派).”
“Mosan faction?”
It’s a fairly familiar name.
A clan that often appeared in the martial arts novels I enjoyed reading during my school days.
It was not a major image like the old file rooms that always appear in any martial arts show, but was closer to a minor image, but it was not that difficult to recall memories of it.
by the way······.
“Are you talking about the Mosan faction? “You’re more famous for your skills than martial arts?” “huh? I did not know? “It was right here in Jiangsu Province.”
I am not a veteran of the past who has lived for over a hundred years like the King of Fire, so how can I know everything that happened when the current great nation was just being established?
However, what I heard a moment ago was enough to make me feel uncomfortable. ‘It was in Jiangsu Province, la… It is in past tense, not present tense.
In addition, when I remembered that Hong Jin had mentioned the word ‘subway’ earlier and that I had never heard the name Mosanpa while working in the martial arts group, I came to a conclusion.
“It’s gone. “It was already a long time ago.”
“answer.”
Hongjin cheerfully snapped his fingers and opened his mouth.
“Taejo, who founded the great nation at the time, chose this place as his capital.
“Nanjing, Jiangsu Province, where six dynasties were established in the past, was the first home of the imperial family.”
“So what happened?”
“With a new unified dynasty about to be established, would they have dared to allow the powerful robbers to be installed? As soon as the Emperor’s name fell, everything went smoothly. At that time, most of the clans in Jiangsu Province moved to their hometown. “At this point, you’re starting to get the hang of it, right?”
It was said that most, but not all, sects moved their home.
After guessing what was going on, I thought quietly.
“It wasn’t the Mosan faction.”
‘that’s right. A small number of martial arts sects, including the Mosan sect, refused the imperial order to leave Jiangsu Province and maintained their home base. It was said that at that time, it was large enough to be compared to the old file room, so it was a bit stubborn. but······
The first emperor of a great country, who was born from the dirt and opened a new sky, was not as generous as the Mosan faction had thought.
“According to the remaining records, 100,000 Geumwi troops marched out. “They killed and burned everything, not a single blade of grass or an ant.”
“The Mosan sect was exterminated, and no martial sect has been able to establish itself in Jiangsu Province since then. Edo side after the current emperor moved the capital to Zhejiang Province.”
Jiangsu Province was not simply the old imperial capital.
It was a clean area of the martial arts area that the Geumwi Army had already completed a thorough cleaning, and it was also the front yard of the imperial family, where traces of the first emperor still remain.
And what this meant was indeed clear.
‘It was a shame to ask for help.’
Until now, you could get help anywhere. In each region, there were one or two sects that were well-established, and most of them were friendly to the Jeokcheon Gang or the Murim Alliance.
The same was true of the last journey, where we had to run only looking ahead, even though it was a remote area.
The Nanman Beast Palace had a connection with Yeolhwamun in the past, and Gyeongjae and Haomun under the Murim League had prepared food or horses along the way even as we were heading to Jiangsu Province.
But not from now on.
This is the extent of the area starting from Jiangsu Province, the former imperial capital. How large is Zhejiang Province, the current imperial capital?
‘It must be completely pure water. There is only a local military officer.’
When the worst happens to us, the most necessary help is military force.
However, you will not be able to find a group with the level of force I hope for anywhere in the vicinity.
Let alone Gupailbang or Odaesega, this is just a local Taekwondo academy.
‘No, in this case, is it a Tai Chi academy?’
When I imagine people wearing colorful group uniforms rushing in, my eyes become dizzy.
‘I’m here to help!’
‘Which clan are you from?’ ‘This is Kyung Hee Tai Chi!’
‘Oh, I see… “Then, if you’ll excuse me, what level of martial arts do you have?’
‘It’s a black belt!’
‘iced coffee······
‘The Zhejiang Kendo Association also came!’ ‘Ah… ah…
I just hope it’s not just my children’s class friends.
3,000,000 mesos when you sign up without a military affiliation. No, it’s sad that I was bewitched by the salesman’s salesman’s way of giving away iron bags, but if I have to deal with Geumwigun as well, how can I look at my parents’ faces?
“At least adult classes. To the afternoon adult class.••… “Confucius Jin. Confucius Jin?”
I was muttering as if possessed, but came to my senses when Hongjin called.
“ah.”
“are you okay?”
‘yes. it’s okay.”
“really? “Cold sweat is flowing like rain.”
“Stop imagining something sinister for a moment.”
After hearing my answer, Hongjin opened his mouth with a dark expression on his face.
“I’m sorry because I think I called you for no reason. But it was a choice I had no choice but to make. “The only thing that came to mind was Confucius Jin.”
“no. “I completely understand.”
If Heung Jin simply wanted someone trustworthy, it would have been enough to get support from the nearest Taewon Jin family.
But to put it bluntly, there is no expert like me anywhere in the Taewonjin family.
No, a qualified person who can meet all the requirements cannot be easily found anywhere in the world.
What Hong Jin truly wanted was not only a relationship of trust, but also a strong man who could save King Sangsan Joo Pyo from any threat.
‘There is a martial arts team, but it would have been too risky to move a top expert that Hongjin can trust right now other than me.’
Even if rocks on the beach move, they leave marks.
They would have already deployed troops all over the world in preparation for a decisive battle with Dark Heaven, but if they were to lose a force equivalent to a supreme expert, the gap would be too big.
Considering the importance and timing of the issue, there would not have been anyone more trustworthy than Jeokcheon-gang and I, who had completed our mission in Nanman.
‘Because if we are not careful, the very foundation of the country could be eroded.’
That time when I let the words that I couldn’t bring myself to say flow out of my heart. A voice that I still couldn’t get used to, no matter how many times I heard it, came from outside the window.
“We will arrive in Suzhou soon.”
A voice as hard as a rock. A man who holds the position of Cheonho (千戶) in the Geumui Commission. Jeongho looked at me through the crack in the window and continued speaking.
“Inform His Majesty King Sangsan. “You will see His Majesty the Emperor within today.”
