Episode 1359 That means he’s coming. (4)
“Perhaps?”
“yes!”
Hong Dae-gwang nodded vigorously.
“Those kings… “No, the higher-ups are interpreting Jang Il-so’s move as not simply to capture the Hwasan Sword Association, but as a move to advance north.”
Tang Gunak’s face became quite serious.
“If it’s in the east…”
it could be.
From here, if you travel east along the Yangtze River, you will reach Zhejiang. And the people who were originally supposed to stop the Sapae-ryeon attempting to cross the river from Zhejiang were none other than the Namgung family. Because the Nangong family is the loser of Zhejiang, which uses Anhui as its base.
But now, the Namgung family has lost most of its power, and the remaining power is staying here in the oral cavity.
So, in other words, the east side of the Yangtze River is now a perfect Mujugong Mountain. If Jang Il-so makes up his mind and attempts to enter Zhejiang, there is no force that can stop him.
“What is the reaction of the old file room?”
“Of course there was an uproar. Now… an order has been given from the Shaolin leader to track Jang Il-so’s movements at all costs.”
A laugh escaped from Tang Gunak’s mouth.
Jang Il-so had not already arrived in a place with insufficient defense, and he had not yet shown anything significant. I just pretended to go east.
Nevertheless, not only Cheonwoo-maeng but also the entire Gupailbang was shaken. No matter how many people there are in the world, Jang Il-so is the only one who can turn the world upside down with just one small act.
“From the room manager’s perspective, it would be like being on fire.”
Han Yi-myeong asked with a puzzled look upon Tanggunak’s words.
“What do you mean?”
“The current head of the room must have thought that everything happening in Gangnam had nothing to do with the Old File Room. Of course, Haenam was involved, but the director had already used Haenam as a dead stone.”
Everyone nodded at those words.
“But if Jang Il-so moves east, the situation will be reversed. “If the Namgung family’s small family is in Gangnam and its main force is here, then the only thing that has to stop the Sapae-ryeon advancing north is Gu-pa-il-bang.”
“For sure…”
If Namgung was still staying there, it would have been Cheon Woo-maeng who was on fire. But now that Namgung is staying here, the situation has completely changed.
The court must now do whatever it takes to prevent them from entering Anhui.
If the Sapaeryun goes beyond Anhui, the place where it will take place immediately afterward is Hanam, where shamans and Shaolin are located.
This means that Jang Il-so is currently moving into a position where he can plunge a dagger into the heart of Gu Pail-bang in an instant if he wants to.
“for a moment! Then…!”
At that moment, Hyeonjae joined the conversation with a look of concern on his face.
“What about the children? What happens to our children? “Wouldn’t that make it more dangerous?”
Tanggunak shook his head.
“It won’t make it more dangerous either way. “If Jang Il-so is really aiming to advance north, the children will be much safer, and even if that is not the case, the siege will be relaxed.”
“iced coffee.”
The phenomenon finally nodded with a slightly relieved expression.
Tanggunak glanced at Hong Dae-gwang’s eyes and opened his mouth again.
“It has become complicated to deal with it from the perspective of the old group, but if you think about it, it is a move that has nothing to lose for us. Even if this is Jang Il-so’s tactic to create confusion, we have nothing to lose.”
Everyone nodded at those words.
In fact, even if we put aside the complex staircase for now, I felt relieved to some extent just because the old group of people who had been leisurely crossing the river every time were startled as if they had been hit by a spark.
It would be even better if Jang Il-so stopped paying attention to the children who went as special envoys to get into a fight with Gu Pail-bang. And even if we don’t go there, the two sides will no longer be able to cross the river to see Buddhism.
“I guess I should say it’s definitely like a Jangilso…”
There is no one in the world that can compare to putting people in uncomfortable situations, catching them off guard and making them break out in a cold sweat.
“Elder Namgoong.”
“Yes, Lord Danga.”
Namgungmyeong immediately responded to Tanggunak’s call.
“Just in case, it would be better to leave the remaining Gasols in the Namgung family behind.”
“All right. “I have connections in Hebei, so I will tell you to pack your bags and move to Hebei immediately.”
“Are you going to be okay?”
“If Lord So had been there, he wouldn’t have hesitated at all. “I’m worried that the remaining foundation in Anhui will collapse, but shouldn’t people live there first?”
Tang Gunak nodded. His thoughts were the same.
“Lord. Then we took advantage of that gap and headed to Gangnam…”
Tang Gunak, who turned to Hyeonjong to discuss what was to follow, paused for a moment and closed his mouth.
Hyeonjong’s face had lost all color and was extremely pale.
“⋯⋯Lord?”
Even though Tanggunak called again, there was no response for a while. After a while, Hyeonjong’s head slowly turned towards Hong Daegwang.
“Did you say east?”
Hong Dae-kwang nodded with a puzzled expression.
“That’s right.”
“Where in the east?”
“⋯⋯Yes?”
“Where do you say they are heading east? “Just because it’s the east doesn’t mean it’s all the same.”
“Ah… Well… at first it seemed to be heading towards the southeast, but now it is said that the direction has changed to the northeast. That’s why the old file room became even more chaotic. “If you head northeast from the bottom of Payang Lake, you will reach Zhejiang.”
Hyeonjong’s face became even whiter.
“Maeng…Lord?”
Tang Gunak, who sensed that something unusual had happened, called out to King Hyeonjong in a serious voice.
After a while, Hyeonjong’s mouth opened weakly.
“Nanjing (南京).”
“⋯⋯Yes?”
“If you move northeast from there, the destination you will arrive at is Nanjing.”
“That’s right. It will be around Nanjing. As soon as you cross the river, you will receive a joint fee. Hapbi is where Namgung House is located and the road leading to Hanam. “It is closer to Hanam than to Wuhan.”
Hong Dae-kwang spat and explained enthusiastically.
“If Jang Il-so is aiming to advance north, there is no place more deadly than this. “Maybe the destination is not Nanjing…”
“How…”
Hyeonjong’s fingertips trembled slightly. Tang Gunak could not bear it anymore and asked again.
“Lord. “Please tell me why you are doing this.”
“Nanjing.”
“⋯⋯Yes?”
“It was written in the letter sent by Cheongmyeong… the place those children were heading to.”
Tang Gunak did not understand those words right away. But soon I understood its meaning and it penetrated my mind.
“Are you saying the children are heading to Nanjing?”
“⋯⋯.”
“Oh no. why?”
Actually, if you ask why, it doesn’t mean much.
The children’s destination will have been decided before Jang Il-so moves.
But now, there was little Tanggunak could say other than those words.
“If Jang Il-so is targeting Gangbuk… there would be no problem… but…”
Hyeonjong’s muttering face was as pale as if he had encountered a ghost in broad daylight.
“If… that’s not true, if you are aware of the children’s movements and are trying to block their path…”
I knew what he said next without having to hear it. The fate of the children in Gangnam had already been decided.
All the blood drained from Tang Gunak’s face.
“Isn’t there a way to contact the children first before confronting Jang Il-so? “That spirit…!”
Baeksang, who had been silent, shook his head.
“It’s impossible. “No matter how Baek-ah he is, he can’t find the children who don’t even know where they are in that vast land of Gangnam.”
Tanggunak was momentarily devastated. Now the situation was fully realized.
Jang Il-so just made a move to move east. With that one move, a noose that cannot be taken off was placed around the necks of both Cheonwoo-maeng and Gupailbang.
Even on the necks of children in Gangnam…
“Defeated army…”
The terrible pressure of those two letters weighed down Tang Gunak’s whole body like a thousand pounds.

“Northeast, right?”
“yes. “It’s clear.”
Beggars who had disappeared between thick bushes were closely watching those moving from afar.
Surrounding the huge four-horse chariot in the center as if to guard it were, again, Sapaeryeon. Even among them, there are those who are worthy of being called ‘main group’.
The beggars’ spines were quickly drenched in cold sweat.
If you are caught by them, you will not die in peace. But you can’t take a step just because you’re scared. Perhaps the fate of the world may depend on their movements.
“You go right away and report this.”
“What about the captain?”
“I’ll follow up a little further. The opponent is Jang Il-so. “You never know when they might do something.”
“Yes, I understand.”
The subordinate held his breath and made no sound as he escaped. The beggar glanced back at this and watched the movements of the Sapaeryeon again.
My eyes fell on a four-horse carriage that was gorgeous enough to attract attention. The splendor alone was overwhelming.
‘Are you going to start a war with the world?’
The devil is riding inside of me.
The devil who manipulates the world as he pleases.

“Hmm.”
Jang Il-so, lying diagonally in a luxurious and comfortable-looking silk gold needle, looked lazily at the scenery outside the window.
The view through the square window was infinitely smaller. However, Jang Il-so did not feel the slightest bit of discomfort.
Even though he couldn’t see it all, the scene unfolding outside was clearly visible in his mind. It was perfectly drawn and unfolded before my eyes.
Those who cannot see invisible sights and move without moving do not deserve to rule the world.
“Ryeonju. “Beggars are on the move.”
“Hmm… “I hate dirty things…”
Jang Il-so, who frowned slightly, soon burst into laughter.
“But I guess I’ll have to endure that. “I will leave you a lot in return for putting up with the bad smell.”
Everything that those beggars saw with their own eyes will be passed down across the river. Without even knowing the fact that Jang Il-so had aided and abetted it.
“Self…. How are you going to move now? huh?”
Jang Il-so looked out the window with expectant eyes and spread his hands.
A huge world lies in the palm of his hand. The quiet world slowly begins to burn again.
“The old group, the Cheonwoomaeng, the Saepaeryeon, and the Hwasan Swordsman Association….”
There was enough firewood collected. This firewood is enough to cause a huge disaster that sets the whole world on fire. And the one who lights the firewood will be Jang Il-so himself.
Jang Il-so took his eyes off the small window to the north and looked at the window on the other side. It was a window that illuminated the south.
At that moment, a cold madness flashed in his eyes.
“You’d better hurry up a bit. If it’s too late, everything will have already burned down. “Cluck, cluck, cluck.”
A cruel smile appeared on Jang Il-so’s red lips. It was a very twisted smile, like the cruel fate that awaits everyone in the world.
