Episode 1213 This is absolutely true. (3)
“Now then, the question is how to get to Haenam…”
Among the group, Dangpae, who was considered to have the least amount of common sense, quietly turned his head and looked at Namgung Dowi.
It’s so subtle.
Just by name, the people who participated in the Haenam movement are people who could literally turn an entire castle upside down.
Sogaju of the Namgung family, Sogaju of the Tang family, the palace lord of Bingungung and King of Nokrim of Nokrim. In addition, the five swords of Munpain Hwasan, which are said to be the most powerful in the world. Isn’t there even Hyeyeon, who was thought to be the head of Shaolin at least once, unless she tore the monk’s clothes with her own hands and abdicated the Buddhist priesthood?
Judging by his prestige and his skills, it is impossible not to say that he is great. But…
‘Why isn’t there anyone I can talk to?’
When I thought about having to discuss it with one of them, my heart felt tight and cold sweat broke out.
In the end, the only person the party group caught was the human-like Namgung Dowi.
“What do you plan to do?”
“No, why did you do that to me…”
Of course, I was taken aback because I didn’t know the speed of Namgung Dowi’s defeat.
“Isn’t it strange when you think about it? Going to Haenam is a very important thing. But is it possible that we didn’t even discuss how we would get there until the day of departure?”
“No, then why did you give it to me…”
Dangpae sighed. In the end, his eyes turned to the person responsible for this incident.
“……100,000 seals.”
“I wanted to tell you a little bit about that part.”
Then, the face of the party flag looking at Baekcheon became slightly animated. This means that Baekcheon had his own plans and intentions.
“There was a person who silenced us in that regard, so I think we should listen to what he says. However…” “
But?”
“Uh… uh, that…”
Baekcheon glanced to one side with a confused look on his face.
“Say it again, you bastard! What? Isn’t there any meaning to the succession ceremony?”
slap! slap!
“Is that vain Jodong-Ari, Jo-Dong-Ari? Yo! Jo-Dong-Ari? Yo?”
slap! slap!
Baekcheon sighed as he looked at Lim So-byeong’s swollen mouth.
“For now, let’s wait until the swelling goes down.”
“……”
Before that, try stopping me from hitting you any more. This human…
“That…”
Lim So-byeong rubbed the corner of his mouth and wiped the corners of his eyes as if he was embarrassed.
Everyone who saw this turned their heads slightly. Of course, just because all anger comes from the mouth, it cannot be said that there are no sins of using one’s mouth
carelessly… But even so, wouldn’t it be embarrassing for both of us to stare at someone as high as the King of Green Forest being caught like a rat and shedding tears?
No, regardless, isn’t that the human duty?
“Why are you crying because you did a good job?”
Of course, this does not mean that everyone here is human…
Lim So-byeong, who was blowing his nose, was about to say something when his face contorted. The chapped lips look sore.
“Well… the reason I asked not to discuss the plan before departure was because there was a risk of words being leaked.”
“… Don’t you have too little faith in people?”
At the party leader’s words, Lim So-byeong glared with venomous eyes.
“What kind of comfortable talk is that? Do you think this is Sichuan? How many people come and go in the manor, starting with the servants! They are all so loyal to
Cheon Yu-maeng that they will reveal their plans even if a knife is held at their throat. “Are you saying you’re the type of person who won’t do it?”
“That’s not true, but…”
“Isn’t it all a mess if you’re talking about such comforting things? What a cruel place Kangho is! This is why the things that grew in greenhouses!”
When the party leader became noticeably sullen, Baek-cheon came to his defense with a bitter smile.
“It’s not a bad thing to hurt people.”
“No! Baekcheon…”
“Continue. See if there are any Gojodong-ari left.”
When Cheongmyeong growled slightly, Lim So-byeong quietly closed his mouth. I don’t know how brutal Kangho’s punches are, but they’re not as brutal as that man’s punches.
Baekcheon said.
“But it is also true that we need to be careful. The probability of information flowing to the Sa faction may not be high, but the Gu faction is bound to be less wary.”
“Why even that…”
“Ah. This person! He really doesn’t understand!”
This time, Cheongmyeong glared at the party flag.
“Right now, the Great King Bald Head is saying that he might pass our information on to the Sapae-ryeon! Our Deputy Jang-mun!”
“Do you really think you would do that?”
“What kind of nonsense is this from a person who is freezing to death! In the end, even when they say they belong to the same political faction, they don’t know what they can’t do! Now you are even saying that you are not a political faction, so you won’t be able to do anything!”
“No matter what, aren’t you a Buddhist?”
“Buddhist? Boouljaaaaa? If that bald head is Buddhist, then I am a Buddha, you human being! Where are the Buddhists in Shaolin in the first place? Those bastards who hold knives and stab people have been angry ever since they started saying that I am a Buddhist!”
“Cheongmyeong… stop. Monk Hyeyeon is crying.”
Yoonjong comforted Hyeyeon’s sullen shoulders.
“It’s okay, it’s okay. You broke the law.”
“I didn’t do it!”
“Didn’t you do it?”
“……”
In the chaotic atmosphere, Lim So-byeong cleared his throat and continued.
“Anyway, that’s why we’re not allowed to talk separately inside, and since we have to leave, let’s share our plans now.”
Chop rock!
Lim So-byeong took out a small map from his sleeve and spread it out on the floor.
“…How many types of maps are there?”
“We have everything prepared in different sizes! There is also a small one. Would you like to share one?”
“…… it’s okay.”
At that point, wouldn’t it be closer to a hobby rather than a preparation area?
“There are some things we need to agree on first.”
“hmm?”
“The most important thing to consider when choosing a route to Haenam is whether we have a place to rely on in that area.”
Everyone tilted their heads at those words.
Lim So-byeong explained the situation step by step.
“As you know, it is better to move with the minimum number of people in this kind of work. However, it is impossible to properly persuade Haenam with only the minimum number of people. So, we had no choice but to have more than ten people head to Haenam… I guess the more people there are, the more difficult it is to persuade Haenam
. The chances of getting caught also increase.”
“hmm.”
Everyone nodded at those words.
“So, it is better to move to an area where there are collaborators who can hide our movements until the very last moment.
Considering this, we have three paths. The first is the sea route.”
“Did you say sea route?”
“yes.”
Lim So-byeong pointed to one side of the map.
“We will take the Yangtze River to Zhejiang Province and take a boat to Hainan. Since there are still many members of the Nangong family in Anhui and Zhejiang, this will be a great help in hiding our whereabouts. The fact that we took a boat and headed to Hainan is not known
. “You can probably hide it.”
“Definitely…”
Namgung Dowi also nods as if it is possible.
“The best thing about this road is that we can hide our tracks most clearly and, above all, we can use the sea route. There
is no place in Gangnam that is untouched by the Sapaeryeon, but the sea route is separate. They catch fish. “I’m not selling it, so it won’t end up in the ocean.”
Everyone nodded at those words. Certainly, no matter how powerful the Sapaeryeon is, it will not be able to control the sea routes.
“So, if you can find the right boat, prepare well, and set off, you can reach Haenam in the safest way. The downside is…” “It will take a long time
.”
“Tsk. That’s right.”
Lim So-byeong immediately nodded at Baek-cheon’s words.
It’s already a long way, so we have to go back further. In addition, it was difficult to increase the speed of the ship with manpower.
“That won’t work.”
“Because it’s not a situation to relax.”
“The other problem is that if something goes wrong with the ship, you could end up stranded in the middle of Gangnam’s coast.”
At first glance, it seemed like a good option, but when I looked into it, there were many problems.
“I understand the route for now. Then what about another route?”
“This way.”
Lim So-byeong’s finger drew a line on the map again.
“It is a way to bypass the land route. First, enter Sacheon, then head to Yunnan, and finally arrive at Lin-eup and take a boat to Haenam. I told you about this before.
”
“yes.”
“This isn’t a bad option either. The problem is… there is a lot of snow on the road to Sichuan and Yunnan.”
“Hmm.”
At those words, Dyeoppae nodded his head loudly.
Although Tang Jia is called the king of Sichuan, this is just a formality. The northern region, including Chengdu of Sichuan, is where the Tang family’s influence is strong, while the southern region, where Ami and Cheongseong are located, should be seen as having a stronger influence of the old faction.
And in Yunnan, not only the Nanman Yasu Palace but also the Jianchang School are located. It would be difficult to completely hide your whereabouts.
“Even if we get through all of that safely, it is not normal to find a ship that can take us from Im-eup to Haenam, where we don’t know how to get to the South Sea Sun Palace. If we’re not careful, we could cause unnecessary trouble.”
This is a story that has been told before.
However, when I thought about it again, it had its own pros and cons, so I couldn’t easily conclude which one was right. Because just arriving isn’t everything.
“The Green Forest King.”
Baekcheon looked straight at Lim So-byeong and spoke.
“You said there are three paths, right?”
“yes.”
“Then what is the third method that the Green Forest King thinks of?”
Baekcheon looked at Lim So-byeong with meaningful eyes. This is because, based on his experience with Lim So-byeong so far, there is a high probability that the third path that he has not yet mentioned is the path that he considers the most realistic.
Lim So-byeong, who received that look, smiled as expected.
“Yes. I will answer. The third route I think is…”
Lim So-myeong’s fingertip pressed firmly on one side of the map. This was the oral cavity where they were now located.
“Here it is.”
The finger that had been pressing down on my mouth was pulled down with such force that it seemed as if it would tear a map.
Everyone’s eyes widened when they saw the lines created by the fingertips.
“…Are you crazy?”
“Are you out of your mind?”
“I knew this nobleman of mine would show his true colors one day! How much did Jang Il-so give you, you Sapa bastard!”
“… Let’s not cross the line.”
Lim So-byeong grinned amidst the outburst of reaction.
“Why are you doing that? Are you sure these prominent people aren’t scared?”
Baekcheon’s face distorted at that sly question.
Everyone has no choice but to react like this. No, it would be even weirder not to react like this. This is because the final line drawn by Lim So-byeong was a straight line connecting Gugang and Haenam.
The shortest route through the Gangnam area, which is dominated by the Sapaeryun, in a straight line. That was the last path taken by Lim So-byeong.
“The sea route would be good.”
“No, I think Yunnan is more realistic.”
“Let’s go somewhere first. It doesn’t matter if it’s the third time!”
The moment when those who felt something instinctively tried to quickly reach an agreement.
“Hooooooo?”
A goosebump-inducing voice was heard in their ears.
“That’s quite…”
“… … ”
“…… ”
“Interesting?”
They all turned their heads creakingly. Soon, a helpless despair appeared darkly on their faces.
Cheongmyeong… was smiling.
