Episode 1138 But what can I do? (3)
Everyone gathered around Lim So-byeong.
Lim So-byeong, who saw this, smiled with utmost satisfaction. And Baekcheon also smiled happily. This is how Cheon Woo-maeng, who had been walking the path of conflict and division, has truly begun to come together…
“Why are you all here? “Crazy.”
“…yes?”
“Get out of your way!” Just put your heads together! Just the head!”
Baekcheon looked around in surprise. Even though I knew that Lim So-byeong had spoken, I felt a strange sense of déjà vu, as if Cheongmyeong had spoken.
“First of all, with the two Sogaju over there.”
“yes.”
“Hmm.”
“Please send representatives from Ice Palace and Beast Palace to the front as well. As for the volcanoes… just five volcanoes.”
At that time, the party members raised their hands.
“What is it?”
“Why five volcanoes?”
At those words, Lim So-byeong’s eyes twitched.
“I didn’t want to say anything because the kids were there, so do you have confidence that you can win against those five one-on-one, Lord Soga of the Tang family?”
The party leader quietly closed his mouth.
“Shouldn’t maximum power be treated separately? Do I have to tell you all these things?”
“sorry.”
“Tsk.”
Lim So-byeong flapped his face with a fan as if he was extremely frustrated.
“And that…”
“Yes?”
“Will the Shaolin representative come too?”
Hyeyeon’s face turned bright red.
“Well… I think the King of Green Forest has a little misunderstanding, but I am not the representative of Shaolin.”
“Then let’s join the sixth of the volcanoes.”
At those words, deep anguish bloomed on Hyeyeon’s face.
Not only does it make no sense to be the head of Shaolin, but it is also very, very strange for him to join Hwasan as the sixth member. Still, wasn’t he a middle schooler?
Hyeyeon, who controlled all the doubts and distracting thoughts that arose in her mind, opened her mouth with a stern expression.
“dole!”
“yes?”
“…Let’s at least say it for the fifth time.”
“….”
“Still, I’m a bit behind that person.”
“Wow… Monk. “Why are you doing this to me?”
At Hyeyeon’s blatant gaze, Jo Geol got angry and made an expression of injustice on the world’s face. However, everyone except him nodded as if they fully understood Hyeyeon’s feelings.
“Then the fifth time.”
“Are you just deciding like this? My opinion is?”
“Walk. noisy.”
“…a harsh world.”
Anyway, everyone gathered around Lim So-byeong. In any case, the only person here who has the status to represent a sect is Lim So-byeong. And Lim So-byeong is recognized, even unofficially, as a soldier of the Cheonwoo Alliance. Naturally, everyone had no choice but to listen to what he said.
However, the first words that Lim So-byeong spoke out after gathering everyone were instantly dazed by those who had gathered expecting a strategy.
“What are you going to do?”
“….”
“….”
The gathered people looked at Lim So-byeong with different emotions. Lim So-byeong said, ‘What should I do?’ He waved his fan gently with a questioning face.
“Over there… the Green Forest King.”
“yes.”
“Didn’t you have a solution…?”
“Measures?”
Lim So-byeong snorted.
“I was beaten to death every time I was beaten, so what solution is there for me? If there was a solution, I would have used it in advance. “Do you think I put up with it because I really like being hit?”
“…That’s true….”
The person everyone needed to calm down was, of course, Jo Geol.
“No, you’re smart! “Didn’t you have something on your mind?”
“Oh, the head?”
“Yes head!”
Lim So-byeong snorts and looks at Jo Geol.
“So, you guys have been getting beaten up so far, but now you’re getting beaten up even more, and it’s too much of a hassle to think about it, so why don’t you guys here use your brains and come up with a brilliant plan to avoid getting beaten up again?”
“That’s it…”
“It’s because of people like you that tricksters are dying!”
When Lim So-byeong got angry and tried to rush at him, Yu I-seol and Yoon Jong naturally grabbed him from the left and right and pushed him down. Even though it was my first time doing it, it felt very natural and flowing.
“deceit? Do these guys know that strategies are made on the fly? Am I the kind of person who keeps some kind of strategy in my pocket and then pulls it out from time to time? Hey you humans! If tactics are supposed to be so omnipotent, why not give preferential treatment to tricksters in the first place? Normally I just ignore it because I can’t use a sword so I just use my head, but in times like this, what? “If I can’t pull out a strategy in time, it’s useless?”
“Ah, no one said that….”
“These noblemen think that a strategist is some kind of immortal! So, Zhuge Gongmyeong succeeded in conquering the North? “Why are you making such a fuss at me when you couldn’t even do it!”
“No one made a fuss….”
“They look like dirty knife-wielding bastards!”
Those who were looking at Lim So-byeong with empty eyes turn their heads towards Nokrim without realizing it. Unlike them who were at a loss for words, the Green Foresters in Nokchae seemed to be familiar with this situation and thought, ‘That person got sick again.’ His face was yawning.
“Well… they do it once in a while, so don’t worry about it.”
“….”
Everyone became curious for a moment. What kind of life have these people been living?
“Hmm.”
Baekcheon cleared his throat to brighten the mood.
“So the conclusion is… there is no solution right now?”
“Is there a solution?”
“yes?”
Lim So-byeong said with a sour face.
“If there is a plan, can you follow what I tell you?”
“Of course…”
Lim So-byeong turned his head and looked at the beast archers.
“You have a strong body, so let’s hold on to the arms and legs of the Hwasan Sword Association while getting roughly beaten. Of course, I will break my head and break my arms and legs in the process, but I will win.”
Before the words were even finished, the beast archers shouted loudly.
“Why should we do that!”
Then Lim So-byeong looked back at Baek-cheon with a sullen face.
“Did you hear?”
Baekcheon lowered his head with a miserable face.
If you think about it, even if you don’t know about Hwasan, other sects have no reason to completely trust Lim So-byeong. No, even if you trust it, there is no reason to take greater damage to achieve your goal.
‘It’s really difficult.’
Baekcheon realized once again.
How difficult it is to coordinate the practical interests and causes of each faction and tie them together. The more I experience it, the more I doubt whether this is really possible.
People do not follow the path that everyone thinks is right by sacrificing themselves just because they have a grand cause. If such a thing was possible in reality, why would the world be full of strife?
“Tsk tsk.”
Lim So-byeong glanced at Baek-cheon and clicked his tongue. Baek-cheon, who felt puzzled by the sight, was about to tilt his head when Lim So-byeong suddenly spoke.
“Isn’t the answer already available?”
“yes?”
“What have you been doing so far?”
“What did you do? That’s right…”
Hitting, kicking, pulling…
‘…All I did was fight.’
I feel guilty again.
“Ha… Why does the dojo always go half way?”
“yes?”
“Is that why you did it because you wanted to do it? “Who is the devil who has done all this?”
“That’s right…”
It’s Cheongmyeong.
There is no need to add the word ‘who perpetrated all these tricks’, isn’t there only one person in the Cheonwoo Alliance who can be called a devil in the first place, Cheongmyeong?
“Then why do you think that guy encouraged this situation?”
The answer jumped out immediately. Not from Baekcheon, but from the five swords gathered around him.
“Because I have a dirty personality.”
“To see us get beaten up.”
“To harass.”
“Because that’s how he was born.”
The moment Lim So-byeong flinched and was about to say something, Dangpae and Namgung Do-wi secretly added their words.
“I think that’s right.”
“Actually, he doesn’t really need a reason.”
Lim So-byeong was silent as if he had run out of things to say. It’s a situation that needs to be overturned with logic and speech, but I couldn’t think of any logic to break it.
“Yes… but yes… well, that could be… no, that’s natural. “He’s actually that kind of person.”
He has suffered too much to say otherwise. too.
“Anyway, isn’t that the whole reason?”
“If you force yourself to think positively, then yes.”
“Then that devil bird… Why on earth did the Cheongmyeong seal do something like this? Think! “Thoughts.”
“That’s right…”
Baekcheon frowned slightly.
Why did they fight against each other? Honestly, I’m not sure about that. Are you trying to find out how much emotion is built up between each other?
“Then backwards.”
“yes?”
“What did you learn from that sparring and fighting?”
While Baekcheon was silent as he searched for an answer and chose his words, Jo Geol, who was next to him, opened his mouth angrily.
“What do you know? “All I know is how dirty these people are and how I can control them better.”
“That’s it.”
“yes?”
Jo Geol, who expected to be scolded again, looked at Lim So-byeong in surprise. Strangely enough, Lim So-byeong was shaking his head as if he had answered well.
“That’s it!”
“…What?”
“How can we help each other better?”
“….”
“To put it conversely, it is no different from saying that I figured out what weaknesses other sects had and what strengths I had. “Using your strengths to attack the enemy’s weaknesses is one of the most basic strategies, without even discussing it.”
Those who thought it was true shook their heads.
“what? “Do you think I did a good job now?”
Jo Geol’s desperately shouting words were completely ignored.
“And that means I can see what I can do. “Didn’t you feel like you were being beaten and beaten all this time?”
“….”
“What can you do when someone like the Hwasan Swordsman Association attacks? “What would you like to do?”
The expressions of those who heard those words became serious.
“That’s right…”
Looking at these people in worry, Lim So-byeong smiled slightly from behind the fan that covered his face.
‘Think about it.’
You can’t just follow someone’s instructions.
On the battlefield where they will fight in the future, no one can give them immediate instructions. In order for everyone to survive, it is important to fully understand the abilities of those around you in the situation and quickly judge what you need to do.
Think and move independently rather than following instructions.
Before knowing your enemy, you must first know yourself, your clan, and the capabilities and characteristics of those you will fight with.
“Dangga…”
Before Tangpae could say anything, the beast archer blurted out.
“I’m not confident about rushing in and holding on to the legs and letting them hang around, but the Beast Palace is the best at holding on for a reasonable amount of time.”
“Hoo?”
Lim So-byeong’s fan shook happily.
As the gaze was focused, the beast archer scratched his head a little embarrassed.
“It’s easy for people to mistake us because we’re a bit clumsy, but in fact, our martial arts skills that imitate the movements of animals are effective in avoiding someone’s attack. Because that’s what nature is.”
“Now that I think about it…”
Bingung, who had dealt with Beast Palace the most, nodded as if he understood.
“good!”
Lim So-byeong folded his fan with a loud noise.
It was good that the words were spoken for the first time, but it was also meaningful that the Beast, who always took a step back and maintained the attitude of ‘let’s see how much you will accept us’, spoke first.
This means they understood what he said.
“The party can also help. Stopping those who rush in is what the party can do best. If the Beast Palace is running wild in front of you, it becomes a bit difficult to attack… but I have interacted with the Beast Palace a few times, so it shouldn’t be difficult to understand.”
“But if you approach the party, you become vulnerable, right? “If you get too close….”
“Our Bingungung can prevent that. “I am confident that we are experts in defense as well!”
“No, using the Ice Palace for defense seems a bit of a waste. Isn’t it better suited to Bingungung’s sword attack? It would be better for our Namgung to block it…”
“The volcano should attack rather than the Ice Palace…”
Once it started, numerous opinions poured in from all over in an instant. Not only those gathered in the center, but also those standing behind them began to add their words.
Amid the flood of words, sometimes violent and sometimes soft, Lim So-byeong secretly covered his mouth with a fan.
‘It’s simpler.’
Isn’t this how people naturally become when they set a goal?
Lim So-byeong smiled slightly and opened his mouth while folding his fan.
“If this happens, no matter how much it is them….”
“Then all we have to do is use Green Forest as a shield!”
“Actually, it’s useless! A meat shield is perfect!”
“okay! Isn’t Noklim more tenacious than Beast Palace? Just push it in!”
Lim So-byeong, who was listening to the sound as if he was speechless, had a spark of hope in his eyes.
“what? “Are you telling us Sa Sect bastards to act as meat shields? You dirty political sect bastards!”
In this way, the conversation between the Cheonwoo members fighting, fighting, and shouting continued until dawn that day.
