Episode 889. There is no need to get sentimental while watching the
setting sun.
“How many clans will follow the summoning order of the Hocheonmaeng?”
“There won’t be many.”
“So how many?”
Dong Tong Il Hak Jin Liang answered after thinking for a moment.
“Tianpungmun, Cheongeommun, and Chilsangmun will reluctantly send a disciple. If we know what the purpose is, we won’t send it, so you shouldn’t tell us until the end.”
“Send a summons to the breakwater between the three main political parties. Because there is no guarantee that the Demonic Cult will save them. If the Demonic Cult had no strings attached, they would join.”
“If not, I will send it to Cheongsanbang and Heukunbang. But are you really following the orders of your superiors?”
“Wouldn’t it be better if we left the Wuhan branch and lived in seclusion in Simsan Yugok? If you want to make a living in Gangho, you have to follow it. Is there anything special?”
Yang Hong let out a long sigh.
I don’t know what kind of dog-like situation this is, to have to die in order to live.
“And summon all the people from the Infinite Branch who sent them back to Jaffa.”
“The branch manager sent me out unilaterally, saying he wanted to cut costs, but would you mind coming?”
“Still, those who come will come. Because Ho Chun Meng might bring back the past movies.”
“Will that day ever come?”
“It is not entirely possible. Even if you see that they are running to fight the Demonic Cult right away, they are not the helpless Hocheonmaeng of the past.”
“Yes, it is, but isn’t the Demonic Cult an easy opponent? If Hocheonmaeng takes a big hit this time… I don’t know if it will be possible to recover.”
“If you want to survive the war against the Demonic Cult, attract people. Make an attractive suggestion.”
“A suggestion?”
“If you accept those who respond to the call as official warriors of the Wuhan branch, they will come running, saying you are a good man.”
“Are you really going to do that? Doesn’t that require the Hocheonmeng’s permission?”
“The fire is burning in my feet, when will I receive permission from Hocheonmaeng?”
“What if the Hocheon Meng doesn’t allow it?”
“Tsk tsk! what people think You look too optimistic about the future. How many of them do you think will survive? one? two? I don’t know, but I wouldn’t cross five fingers, right? With that number, even Hocheonmaeng won’t oppose it.”
“Ah…”
An exclamation flowed from Jinryang’s mouth.
indeed! When you rise to a high position like the branch manager, you think things are different.
“All right. Then, I will proceed according to the branch manager’s words.”
Jin-ryang showed Yang-hong the town and hurried out.
Yang Hong, who had been sitting in a daze, jumped up from his seat and took his sword and headed for the gymnasium.
It was because I felt nervous and couldn’t bear it if I didn’t even swing a knife.
***
Huanggang adjacent to Wuhan.
La Jeon Hyun.
around noon.
About two hundred horsemen appeared at the entrance of the village.
They are the masters of the Southern Alliance.
It took time and came slowly, but it was clear that he was tired from the heat of the summer.
Still, perhaps because it was close to Wuhan, the masters of the Southern Alliance looked around with sharp eyes.
It was because the advance party of the Demonic Cult might have advanced all the way to Hwanggang.
However, the people who came and went on the street were extremely ordinary.
As the armed warriors were nowhere to be seen, the masters of the Southern Alliance soon relaxed.
The masters of the Southern League scattered in search of a restaurant.
Cheongwoon Sword Namgungcheon, who was walking with Lee Dae, suddenly asked for understanding from Jin Seol-ha and Yeon Jeok-ha and left the ranks.
Yeon Jeok-ha tilted his head as he watched Namgungcheon go away.
It is because he does not know where he is going alone in an unfamiliar place.
“Jean Sozer. What’s wrong with your brother?”
“I don’t know if I’m going to meet the Lord.”
“Are you Lord?”
“Because lately, he kept saying that he couldn’t understand the lord.”
“why?”
Then Jin Seol-ha slowed down to increase the distance between Lee Dae and said quietly.
“You know that the Musketeers have been procrastinating over the past few days, right?”
“I know.”
“I entrusted the musketeer to lead until infinity, but the leader is still the sword king.”
“Yes.”
“My older brother said he didn’t know why the Maeng Lord kept watching when the tricks of the Musketeers were clearly visible. He probably went to pick it up.”
“aha!”
Yeonjeokha shook his head.
The last few days, Namgungcheon’s complexion was not good, so it must have been that.
After all, he is a man full of chivalry.
He’s not really interested in doing it or not, but he just can’t pass it up.
Gu Cheon-no, who was listening quietly by the side, also intervened in heartache.
“Hehe. I think I know why Lord Maeng is doing this. The blue cloud sword’s eyes are still far away.”
Yeonjeokha turned her gaze to Simtong.
“You know?”
“Isn’t it strange that you don’t know? Why don’t you know that?”
“Why are you doing that? Let me know.”
Yeon Jeok-ha and Jin Seol-ha paid attention to the heartache with a curious face.
The two of them are also curious about why the headmaster is ignoring the musketeers’ tricks.
Heartache opened his mouth slowly.
“There can’t be two tigers on one mountain, right? When the Demonic Cult and the Myeonggyo Cult are sorted out, Hocheonmaeng and Nammaeng will fight over the position of leader of Murim. Even if the Mugeuk Merchant and the Sword King are saints, the breakwaters below me aren’t like that either. Enmity over interests will become a daily occurrence. In order to prevent that, you must stand tall at the top alone, whether you are the Hocheon or the Southern League. It is as if Pacheonma-gun, the owner of the green forest, holds the center of the seventy-two houses.”
“so? what?”
“In order for the Southern Alliance to conquer the world alone, shouldn’t the spirit of the Hocheon Alliance be broken?”
“What nonsense are you talking about? Our father-in-law is not such a snob. Do you say that even when you see it up close?”
“Gongja. That’s adult politics. It means to prevent further chaos with small sacrifices. If Hocheon Meng recovers its previous vigor, the South Meng will wither and die. In other words, isn’t Confucius loyal to the Southern League? Can Crown Prince Namgung alone deal with the Hocheon League run by the Chilpilmun? can’t I can not. Jin So-je was in Hocheon-meng, so you should know what I mean. How is it? Do you really think I’m talking nonsense?”
Katabuta to speak did not speak.
Heartache’s words seem extreme, but there were parts that I could sympathize with.
The evaluation of the Sword King within Hocheonmaeng is not favorable.
Some of them left the Hocheon League and built their own forces, but it was like that before.
The Chilpilmun and the five generations had a cooperative relationship, but there were many internal conflicts.
The Chilpamun tried to suppress the five generations, and the five generations wanted to be treated equally with the Chilpamun.
In the meantime, when Hocheonmaeng was weakened, the Sword King rushed out and created the Nammyeong.
The Nammaeng seen in the Hocheonmaeng is an alliance of five generations including the Namgung family.
‘From that point of view, it seems that the Sword King is pursuing practical interests…’
Whatever the reason, when the Hocheon Alliance is at stake, he establishes the Southern Alliance and commands the world.
However, since he is the father-in-law in the future, agreeing with Simtong’s words is reserved.
“I don’t know.”
When Jin Seol-ha pulled her foot out, Heartache laughed.
Seeing that she isn’t stubborn, she is a clever young lady.
He is a person with excellent long hair. .
When Jin Seol-ha, who was in Hocheon-maeng, seemed to be shaking, his mind was a little confused.
The Sword King is his father-in-law and brother-in-law to his father.
I want to remember only the appearance of the great fighter that I have shown so far, but I don’t know if it will go as I wish.
***
Outskirts of Rajeon-hyeon.
Namgung Byeok, who was walking shoulder to shoulder with Namgungcheon, asked while looking at the distant mountains.
“Is it bearable on a very hot day?”
“yes.”
“haha. Should I be thankful that the words of the Musketeer went wrong?”
Namgung Byeok first raised the musketeers to his mouth.
As expected, the son said as if he had been waiting.
“Even if it’s not the case, I came to see my father about it.”
“That thing?”
“It seems that the Musketeers are making excuses to delay the time. Isn’t it?”
“Did you think so?”
“This happened right after Musketeer Mo Yong-mun met the enemy and went back. Since you don’t have faith in the enemy, aren’t you trying to delay the fight?”
“If the musketeer had anything to gain by delaying, it might be. What do you mean he gets it?”
“…”
Namgoongchun couldn’t answer.
It was because the profits that the musketeer would gain by doing so did not immediately come to mind.
“Why can’t you talk?”
“father. It’s not a matter of profit. The musketeer is trying to throw Hocheonmaeng to the Demonic Cult. Doesn’t your father know that Hocheonmaeng is no match for the Demonic Cult?”
“You are wrong. There are benefits to be gained by the musketeers.”
“What profit does the musketeer get?”
“He wants to be like Gongsun Qi, the musketeer of the Hocheon League. The first knowledge in the world is his goal.”
“Yes?”
Namgungcheon raised her eyes. Suddenly, I couldn’t figure out why the name of Musketeer Hocheonmaeng was appearing here.
“Hocheonmaeng is the suzerain of Murim. So, people secretly regard the leader as the best musketeer in the world as the best scholar in the world. A scholar’s dream is to become a musketeer. Didn’t you know?”
“I didn’t know that Moyong Daehyeop was aiming for the position of musketeer of the Hocheon League. Then shouldn’t we be more considerate of Hocheonmaeng?”
“But today, the leader of the Hocheon League is no longer the best man in the world. The same goes for the musketeers. The musketeers are trying to elevate the Nammaeng to the position of Hocheonmaeng.”
“Could that be why you are trying to force Hocheonmeng to death? Did your father know that and just leave it alone?”
“The long-cherished wish of our Murim family members is to become the suzerain of Murim. If the Hocheonmaeng of the Chilpamun is a setting year, then the Southern Meng is a rising year. There is no need to get sentimental while watching the setting sun.”
Namgungcheon muttered with a shocked face.
“I thought the musketeers were left unattended…but that wasn’t the case. I did not know that my father had such ambitions.”
“Ambition…. It is natural for the Southern League to take the place of Hocheon Meng. The Nammaeng will always keep the strong morality together with the Hocheonmaeng.”
“father. Wouldn’t it be Kang Ho’s morality for the Nam Maeng, who is much stronger than the Ho Chun League, to deal with the Demonic Cult?”
“That too is wrong. The fact that the Nam Maeng looks strong is an optical illusion effect caused by the four sisters-in-law, but the Nam Maeng is so weak that it is difficult to compare it to the Ho Chun Meng. And the enemy has a philosophical view of world affairs, so why not call him a member of the Southern League?”
“So, are you using this opportunity to weaken the power of the Hocheonmaeng?”
“I hope Murim will be peaceful under the rule of the Nammaeng. For that to happen, the Hocheon Alliance must be under the Southern Alliance.”
“The people of Hocheonmaeng… are not strangers. Previously, we were also blind.”
“But I wasn’t treated well. Like the ronin, we shed our blood for the Chilpamun. Have you forgotten all about those days?”
“…”
Namgungcheon looked at his father with a bewildered face.
The Sword King had an unfamiliar expression that he had never seen before.
‘I was wondering why the musketeers and the musketeers were neglecting the arbitrariness of the musketeers…’
At this point, it is not ‘neglect’ but ‘assistance’.
I would never have thought that my father, whom I knew only as a great swordsman of Murim, would have such ambitions.
“I don’t know why my father would do that. Neither Jeok-ha nor Yeon-i will understand your father.”
“You and your enemies won’t understand, but a kite will understand. That it is for the sake of the world.”
“I wanted to be like my father. But it’s disappointing. I thought my father was different from the great scholars of Hocheonmaeng…. In the end, he wanted to go down the same path as them.”
Namgungcheon drooped her shoulders.
I ran after seeing my father’s back, but now I don’t know where to put my eyes.
