Episode 235
“You’re late.”
Dan Woo-hyeon, who was sleeping, didn’t feel any presence and opened his eyes and muttered. Several hours had already passed since Jang Sam-tae left, but he did not return.
There must be some reason why he, like no one else, can’t keep time.
If Dan So-mi is a person who brings good luck, Jang Sam-tae is the opposite and is a person who embraces misfortune.
That may be why Dan So-mi and Jang Sam-tae are such a good match.
Dan Woo-hyeon smiled and stood up.
It was still before dawn, but it seemed like dawn would be just one more hour, so it was a good time to wake up.
I got up from the bed, relaxed slightly, and went outside.
I took a quick look around and found a place where Jang Sam-tae might have gone.
Since he doesn’t like crowded places, I thought the odds of him going to the mountains were a little high.
Dan Woo-hyeon lightly threw his body away.
His body flew up as lightly as a feather, climbed over the wall, and escaped from there.
The sight of him flying freely made him look relaxed, as if he were a hermit.
Then, he suddenly stopped, looking at one place.
Even though it was early morning, I could feel the movement of other people besides the police officers who were standing guard.
When I turned my head, I saw people wearing dark clothes.
As I opened my eyes and regained my strength, I saw the children held on their sides.
Dan Woo-hyeon’s eyes sparkled as he looked at the children who were lying limp and not moving at all.
“I never thought it would be this easy to find.”
I burst out laughing without realizing it.
Are they lucky or are they unlucky? Although it was only one person at best, those who could not even capture the imperial family appeared spontaneously.
‘Shall I catch you?’
Dan Woo-hyeon, who was thinking such things, shook his head.
If it is not swept away immediately, the same thing will continue to happen. Cutting off one tail won’t kill a lizard, right?
He followed him secretly.
The movements of the person in black carrying the child were quite amazing. He completely deceived the attention of the police officers and slipped through them leisurely.
As I saw that there was not even a trace left behind, I realized that he was learning a martial art that was very specialized in this type of work.
The man in black quickly left Beijing and began climbing the mountain.
Dan Woo-hyeon, who was following him, looked at the black righteous man casually climbing the rough mountain and realized that this was not the first time he had come and gone here.
This probably means that their base is nearby.
At that time, Dan Woo-hyeon suddenly stopped walking and looked away.
Although it was a very long distance away, I realized that someone was fighting.
As I felt the flow, I decided that he must be a colleague of Jang Sam-tae and the person in black.
Since it felt like he was struggling, he could have gone and helped right away, but Dan Woo-hyeon shook his head and concentrated on not missing the target.
If you go to help Jang Sam-tae, you will miss the mysterious person in front of you.
‘You will survive.’
The Jang Sam-tae that Dan Woo-hyeon knew was not someone who would die easily. It had the tough vitality to survive in any situation.
If he thinks he can’t win, he will run away.
Dan Woo-hyeon turned off his attention to Jang Sam-tae and continued tracking the man in black.
‘How far are we going?’ The man was moving cautiously and showed no signs of stopping. Even though we were already deep into the mountain, we felt like going further in.
But in an instant, Hokuiin’s body disappeared.
Dan Woo-hyeon stopped walking in the distance.
It was a straight line.
Moreover, there were quite a few people hiding around Jinbeop. It seemed like they were deployed in preparation for an unexpected situation.
Dan Woo-hyeon took a step. For a moment his body disappeared and appeared on top of a nearby tree.
The person who was hiding opened his eyes when he saw Dan Woo-hyeon suddenly appear.
However, before he could open his mouth, Dan Woo-hyeon’s outstretched hand covered his mouth and the other hand lightly hit his neck.
puck!
The sound resonated very faintly.
Glancing at the man’s limp body, he kicked the tree and moved to the other side.
Puk puk!
The secret energy that extended from Dan Woo-hyeon’s fingers struck the head of the person who was hiding, and Dan Woo-hyeon’s body, which went to the other side, struck the other person’s chest.
With the dull sound spreading, people in black were scattered everywhere.
Even the people in black, who had felt nothing at first, now realized that something unusual was happening and looked closely at their surroundings with a nervous look. They were tempted to blow a whistle, but it was nothing more than their wish.
Dan Woo-hyeon’s hands quickly took their lives.
Every time he moved his hands and feet, he turned into a corpse and was scattered around.
Slurp—
it didn’t even take a single moment to deal with the dozens of people in black who were hiding.
If anyone had heard it, they would have opened their mouths and said they were crazy.
Dan Woo-hyeon examined the bodies of the dead people.
The name Hoksal, carved with fire, clearly remained in the hearts of the people in black.
“It’s called Hoksalmun…?”
It’s a place that’s not as good as killing people, but if you think about the number, you can’t ignore it.
It was a place overflowing with murderous ghosts hungry for blood and slaughter.
Many people are connected to him, knowingly or unknowingly.
It was like that in the past and it is like that now.
That is why he is more threatening than anyone else.
It was also a place related to that guy.
Dan Woo-hyeon looked straight ahead.
A space where the formation is hidden. The place he is looking at is nothing but bushes, but the moment he enters, he will fall into the trap.
Judging by the strong energy it felt, it was a fairly high-level attack.
“I took the kids with me, so I had a rough guess. “You’re lucky.”
Dan Woo-hyeon took a step toward Jinbeop.
There was no hesitation in his actions, as if he had no intention of destroying it from the beginning.
The moment I entered the Jinbeop, a strange sensation took over my entire body.
My five senses disappeared and I felt like my body was being crushed. I was walking, but it didn’t feel like I was walking, and I couldn’t even tell where I was going.
However, Dan Woo-hyeon had an expression that said it didn’t matter at all.
As the faint wind blew past his entire body, he lightly put out his hand.
Plop!
“Knock!”
A groan was heard from somewhere.
Although the other person was not even visible, someone had fallen and was rolling around on the floor.
“Just because you can’t see it doesn’t mean you can’t kill it.”
Dan Woo-hyeon smiled and walked forward without hesitation.
Puk puk puk!
With each step, the sound of the watermelon breaking was loud.
I couldn’t tell if it was a human or a wild animal or something else, but what was certain was that there was blood on his hands and the screams and moans of those rolling around on the floor continued.
“What are they doing! “Kill me!”
I heard a voice again.
That urgent cry was full of anxiety, and in proportion to it, Dan Woo-hyeon’s face gradually grew into a deeper smile.
Plop!
“Ouch!”
bang-!
Eventually, when Dan Woo-hyeon took a step forward, the ground caved in and stone fragments flew in all directions.
They poured out like memorization and penetrated the bodies of those who were nowhere to be seen.
Puffpuffpuffpuff!
No one could stop Dan Woo-hyeon from advancing.
He couldn’t stop his steps even for a moment.
Just as nothing like ants or earthworms can stop Daeho’s steps.
Saaagh-!
Eventually, the formation was broken and the previously invisible scenery was revealed.
There were probably dozens of people in black, their corpses lying around.
The number of those who survived was only a few people at most, and they sat down and trembled, as if they had already lost their will to fight.
Dan Woo-hyeon looked at them and narrowed his eyes.
Let’s touch it lightly and it crackles! My heart burst out with a dull sound.
“A cave?”
Eventually, I looked at the cave in front of me.
I entered the cave, casually passing by the corpses lying around. In a place where torches were lit everywhere, a foul smell rose up as if it were going to sting your nose.
It was the smell of a rotting corpse.
The smell of blood was also carried by the wind.
Dan Woo-hyeon continued to advance into the cave with an uncomfortable gaze.
The cave was so deep that there was no end in sight.
Let’s ride the road for a while and reach the end.
At some point, Dan Woo-hyeon stopped walking and lifted his sleeve to cover his nose.
The smell of rotting corpses and the fishy smell was so bad that even Danwoo Hyeon could not bear it.
“I don’t know what to say….”
Dan Woo-hyeon looked at the devastation in front of him.
Hundreds of children were seen lying in one place.
The blood from the children’s corpses, which were so damaged that it was impossible to find a clean place, was so thick that it formed a river. At the center was a haggard-looking old man.
He held a dagger in one hand and grabbed the child by the neck, as if he wanted to kill the children he had captured.
He didn’t show any interest in the noise coming from outside, as if it was somehow okay.
“There was a commotion outside. Are you the reason why?”
The phlegm-boiling voice subtly irritated me.
The old man put down the child and turned his head to look at Dan Woo-hyeon. The old man with sparkling eyes looked at Dan Woo-hyeon’s body here and there and licked his lips with his tongue.
“I thought they would be impenetrable unless they were Chilseong or Ohwang because they only gathered strong people and knew how to use spiritual magic. But you are not one of them.”
The old man continued to say that it was all right and then began to slowly approach Dan Woo-hyeon.
“Are you a priest?”
“Ohh? Do you know this old man’s title? “It’s so strange… It doesn’t seem like he’s a member of the Blood Demon Cult…”
At that moment, Dan Woo-hyeon nodded and smiled bitterly. The old man must have sensed what he meant by stopping and rolling up his sleeves.
Boo!
At that moment, a strange phenomenon occurred.
The old man’s entire body swelled up like a balloon.
Even his muscles had grown several times more, and his size was incomparable to what it was just a moment ago.
The old man’s power also increased like crazy and enveloped the entire cave.
Finally, the priest took a deep breath, his red eyes shining.
“Your corpse… seems like it could be useful in many ways.”
The priest let out a phlegm-filled voice again and smiled bitterly.
As if the opponent’s strength was nothing.
The priest’s power was pressing Dan Woo-hyeon like crazy, as if even if all of the Seven Stars and Five Emperors were here, they could not endanger him.
Dan Woo-hyeon, who was looking directly at that scene,
muttered softly.
“Yeah, it looks a little fun.”
