Episode 198. Whale’s Back Explodes in Shrimp Fight
Right before going out, Jegal Seung-woon, the musketeer and Shinki-su, had a separate meeting with the masters.
“I would like to express my gratitude once again to the many deceased people who willingly took over the position of Daeju for the sake of justice in Moorim. I asked to see you before departure because I have something important to tell you.”
At the words of Jegal Seung-un, Jang Moo-deok, the free apprentice of Daeju Cheonchudae, opened his mouth.
“Looking at the fact that only Daeju was gathered before departure, it must be a pretty important story.”
“That’s right. This war against the famous religion would have been impossible without the emperor’s permission.”
“You mean that the imperial family has cut ties with the famous religion?”
“You can see that. In the early days, it is said that several members of the imperial family were recruited in the bribes of celebrities. However, it seems that they felt a crisis when the power of famous religions grew excessively.”
“Are you going to kill the car after all? Tsk! This is why you shouldn’t trust the imperial family.”
Jang Mu-deok shook his head excitedly.
Jegal Seungwoon smiled faintly and continued.
“Of course, I don’t believe in the imperial family either. You don’t know when you’ll get dumped. Still, the reason we were able to hold such a large-scale rally in Nanjing was because the Emperor allowed it. However, there are some restrictions on this event of the Justice League.”
“Are you restricted? What do you mean?”
Uicheon Geomjon Lee Ui-jeong, the great lord of Cheokmadae, looked at Jegal Seung-woon with a curious look.
This is because it has never been said before.
Jegal Seungwoon replied with a bitter smile.
“Actually, the leader of the Golden Guard came to visit last night.”
“shape? You mean the military commander who is said to be the emperor’s closest aide?”
Jang Moo-deok pretended to know.
Since Wujimen was in Nanjing, he could often hear the news of central officials.
The story about the shape of the commander of the Golden Guard was one of them.
The Geumuiwi is the emperor’s personal military organization, which conducts inspections, arrests, and interrogations. Due to its mighty power, there was no one who did not know the golden throne after the Murim gates of Nanjing were broken.
“That’s right. He came secretly last night and left with two requests. The first was that the emperor was worried and told me to leave Nanjing quickly.”
The four lords nodded.
It is cause for concern as more than 1,500 armed warriors gathered in Nanjing.
“And secondly, I told the people not to move together because it might surprise them. The second problem is to invite the great lords.”
Namgung Byeok, the sword king of Uigidae Daeju, said with a frown.
“Doesn’t it mean that the four units must act separately?”
Even so, it was an embarrassing situation for a small group of people.
“That’s right. Actually, he’s not wrong. If 1,500 or so warriors gather together, they’d think there was a rebellion. So I think the four units will have to move on different routes.”
“…”
Namgung Byeok didn’t have anything to refute, so he just sighed.
The country’s supreme power, the emperor, had no choice but to follow.
Uijeong Lee, who had been watching quietly, comforted Namgung Byeok.
“Don’t worry too much about the sword king. I don’t think there will be any big problems until Henan anyway.”
“Yes, I also heard that there is a famous school in Jeongju.”
As Namgung Byeok was the youngest among the top 10 masters in the world, he answered politely.
Originally, the distribution of Namgung Byeok corresponds to the long gate of Chilpai Gate.
But the others were all hermits who had withdrawn from the frontlines.
When everyone was satisfied, Jegal Seung-woon stepped forward.
“So yesterday, I made four routes with the commander of the Golden Guard in a hurry. The first is the path of the chuck horse. Go north, pass Hongze Lake, pass Xuzhou Xianggu Kaifeng, and enter Zhengzhou.”
“Okay.”
Ichigo nodded his head.
Jegal Seung-un saw the Merchant Mugeuk, the great master of the death squad.
“The second is the path of extinction. It was oriented northwest. Pass through the cursed and embalmed Bakju and enter Jeongju.”
“So it is.”
The Mugeuk Merchant nodded as if he understood.
Jegal Seung-woon’s gaze turned to Jang Moo-deok this time.
“Thirdly, Cheonchudae is to the northwest like Myolsadae, but the course has changed slightly. It’s the same up to the curse, but after that, go through Huinan Buyang Jugu and enter Jeongju.”
“I will.”
The gazes of the lords turned to Namgung Byeok.
The only direction left is west. It is a road that goes through Hebi and turns left.
In Hefei, there is Musansoxuk, a famous religious church.
Jegal Seung-un seemed to give the west road to Namgung Byeok to take revenge, but there were too few people.
Namgung Byeok looked at Jegal Seung-un with strange eyes.
He is on the same distribution as Jegal Seung-un, but he is older, so he has always been called a senior.
This time, he realized that Jegal Seung-un was not very cooperative with himself and the Namgung family.
Shaolin Temple and Uicheon Gate were originally the munpa that led the massacre of Uigido. However, because Zhugegal Seung-un did not reorganize, Shaolin Temple and Uicheon Gate escaped from Cheokmadae and Cheonchudae.
If the Uigido University had been reorganized, it would not have been seen from the beginning.
In such a situation, Jegal Seung-un entrusted the freedom of choice to the literati. To be honest, I would have avoided Uigido without the support of Chillpaimun.
‘Are you trying to take care of me? Or is it to drink water?’
Namgung Byeok was not particularly angry because he knew that Jegal Seung-woon’s treatment was a courtesy of the world. This is because the Namgung family also rose to the position of the Murim family by stamping out and suppressing weak forces.
It may be natural for the Jegal family to seek the position of Namgung family.
“For the fourth time, Uigido headed west. Go up to Zhengzhou via Xuchang, Hefei Xinyang Juma Branch.”
“Okay. I will.”
Namgung Byeok smiled as if he knew that.
In Hefei, there is an anoxic axis, and between Xuchang and Zhengzhou is the famous Eunha Field.
He threw the Eunhajang that annihilated Musansochuk and Uigido, who led the Namgung family to extinction.
Lee Eui-jeong looked at Jegal Seung-un and Namgung Byeok alternately with complicated eyes.
It is impossible to do oxygen free axes and galaxy fields with the current power of Uigido.
However, Namgung Byeok did not raise any objection to such an unreasonable decision.
My head hurts just looking at Jegal Seung-un, who blatantly wants to kill the Namgung family, and Namgung Byeok, who accepts it kindly.
‘It looks like a whale’s back will explode in a shrimp fight. What if the non-partisan raises an issue later?’
Lee Eui-jung did not understand Jegal Seung-un.
Even if you say that Namgung Se, who has become infamous, passes quietly, the shaman faction is different.
If the shaman faction has resentment, the Chilpai sect’s Taoist sect will also try to push away Zhuge Sega.
‘I’m sure you’re not trying to bring down even the shamans, right?’
It couldn’t have been, but even if it did, it couldn’t be stopped. Even if he sacrifices a little, no one will criticize him as long as the results are good.
Jegal Seung-woon looked around the lords and asked them to be careful.
“The route I just mentioned was delivered to the commander of the Golden Guard this morning. If you deviate from this path, you may be considered to have a different mind, so you must respect it.”
The lords silently nodded their heads.
Jegal Seung-woon expressed it around ‘different mind’, but there was no one who didn’t know what it was.
Imperial cooperation is a double-edged sword.
You can enjoy the benefits now, but it is better not to do anything to be blamed in case you become a tosa.
After the emergency meeting, the four owners returned to their respective seats.
Soon after, about 1,500 armed adherents of the Justice League fled Nanjing.

Unboxing.
burn village.
There are people who adapt well to extreme environments.
For example, the bull and the stone man were like that.
The first time he was suddenly thrown into the Yellow River, he drank so much water that he fainted.
But after that, I got the hang of it and it wasn’t as difficult as it was the first time.
It is the waist, not the limbs, that are tied with the rope.
When the bull and the stone man jumped into the Yellow River, they diligently pulled their heads out of the water with their hands.
Nokdampyeong was holding the rope from above, so there was nothing wrong with holding on.
Unexpectedly, only Nokdampyeong is suffering.
After breakfast, Yeon Jeok-ha and Gu Cheon-no went to Hyojaam with heartache.
Nokdampyeong, who was waiting for them, tied the bull and stone man’s waists with a rope.
The bull and the stone man jumped themselves into the Yellow River before Nokdamping pushed them away.
These are familiar and natural movements.
Heartache tilted his head.
The faces of the bull and the stone man did not contain fear or horror.
On the first day, those who cried, blew, and clung to each other with pale faces were somehow strange.
Simtong approached the edge of the rock, stretched his neck, and looked down.
“What a fuck!”
Curses came out of my mouth spontaneously.
Two swindlers were floating in the whirlpool with their hands on the rope.
Thinking that Nokdampyeong meant to stop lifting, he diligently turned his wrist.
Then, heartache kicked Nokdampyeong.
“You idiot! Who told you to pull it up!”
Nokdampyeong untied the rope again and slowly looked at his heartache.
“Confucius, I see now that swindlers are hanging out on ropes.”
Yeonjeokha, who checked down from the edge of the rock, frowned.
“Wow! those scammers. Did those guys come up and pretend to be dead? Yah. scary. Old Sim takes care of it.”
I left the troublesome task of dating and went back to the simple chair.
“It should melt. From now on, don’t pull up the rope until the old lady tells you.”
“yes.”
Simtong squatted on the edge of a rock and looked down.
Maybe half an hour (an hour) has passed?
The imposters’ heads submerged below the surface and then came up.
It’s not just scammers that are having a hard time.
Nok Dam-pyeong, who was holding the rope with both hands during the half-time, was already sweaty all over.
After a while, the heads of the swindlers who went down to the surface did not come up.
Only then did the heartache rise from the seat.
“Pull it up.”
“yes? yes.”
Nokdampyeong started winding the rope around his wrist.
However, it was not an easy task for Nok Dam-pyeong, who had already worked hard for more than half an hour.
He gritted his teeth, but after a while his strength went down.
thump.
The rope that had been wrapped around it came loose.
Nokdampyeong pulled the rope again with trembling hands.
However, once lost power cannot be recharged.
He tried to wrap the rope around his arm, but the rope got heavier and heavier.
Now it’s a difficult situation to hold the line.
The heartache that had been watching him whimpering as he held on to the rope approached the edge of the rock.
Heartache, who had been looking down with his head all the way out, spoke in a calm tone.
“It should melt. You can stop now.”
“Let go?”
“Do you have the strength to pull?”
“Oh no.”
“Then let me go to the underworld. kid.”
“ah!”
Only then did Nok Dam-pyeong realize that the two swindlers were already dead.
Come to think of it, it was already past the time to drown.
He loosened his hands.
In the blink of an eye, the two ropes were sucked down the rock.
“…”
Nokdampyeong stared blankly at the Yellow River.
The weight of the life he had let go of with his own hands pressed down on his chest.
During the three days spent with the two swindlers, did he feel any hatred?
A cool yet empty feeling rushed in.
A heartache kicked him hard in the buttocks, who had been immersed in the futility of life for a moment.
“You bastard! Get out of the way! Where are you getting the money? You, too, are alive because you have a tender heart. If you were like me, you would have killed twelve more times.”
