Episode 1275 It must be a tiger in a poison. (5)
“This is okay… ahhh!”
Cheongmyeong screamed and looked at her leg. Tang Soso was tying up the thread that stitched up the wound with all her might. The purple veins on the back of her hand showed her emotions. It seemed like he was saying,
“So… soso…”
“Why? Does it hurt?”
“…no.”
Tang Soso finished stitching up Cheongmyeong’s wounds with a pouty look on his face. The long, split wound on my calf was completely cleaned up in an instant.
“That’s Okay.”
Tang Xiaoxiao wiped his hands with a cotton cloth and looked down at the bridge of Qingming.
“I’ve done all the treatment. The problem is…”
“If the treatment is complete, that’s fine.”
“…No, the death penalty…!”
“Oh my, it’s frustrating! I was just in the cabin and I felt so stuffy inside that I couldn’t stand it. “I’m going to go out for a moment and get some air!”
“Legs! You can’t use those legs! Hey!”
Cheongmyeong jumped out of the cabin on one good leg like a jiangshi. Tang Xiaoxiao sighed deeply.
“Who the hell is that guy…”
Everyone gave her a look of comfort.
“How are you?”
On the outside, the treatment was completed cleanly and Cheongmyeong appears to be fine. However, Yoonjong gives Cheongmyeong credit for pretending to be calm. It wasn’t a person.
Tang Soso clicked his tongue and answered,
“I’m fine. The detoxification has been completed, and the wounds are not that severe compared to what you usually suffer.”
After hearing those words, Nangong Dowi looked at Tang Soso in astonishment.
‘You mean this is worse than usual?’
A person’s legs were split to the point where the bones were visible, and more than ten poisonous needles longer than fingers were stuck in his body? So
what kind of injuries do you think he was carrying around on a regular basis? How does that guy have about 15 lives?
“Then isn’t that a good thing? ”
“Thank goodness. “Thank goodness, but…”
Tang Soso, who trailed off for a moment, sighed and opened his mouth.
“From a clinician’s perspective, the most terrible patients are not those with serious injuries. There are many cases where such patients can do anything as long as they are conscious.”
“But?”
“The truly troublesome patients are those whose wounds have reopened and opened up again. From then on, it is not the trauma that is the problem, but the internal injuries that are the problem. When the blood of a living patient begins to rot, an irreparable situation arises.”
“I know what you mean.”
Yunjong nodded slowly with a heavy face.
Until now, all I had to do was stay alive no matter what wounds Cheongmyeong received. It was always after the battle was completely over that they tended to Cheongmyeong’s wounds.
But now?
‘Now is the start.’
They have only just left Haenam Island. Now, instead of going anywhere else, we have to go through Gangnam and head to the Yangtze River. Not even they can dare to predict how many more battles like this will take place in the meantime.
“It is said that it will be difficult to fully recover before the next battle.”
“yes.”
Tang Soso answered clearly and said:
“So the death penalty.”
“huh?”
“Next time the executioner of Cheongmyeong tries to go on a rampage, you must stop him as much as possible by holding on to the leg of his pants that is tied around his neck.” “
……Understood.”
“Don’t just listen.”
Yunjong’s face hardened as Dang Soso’s voice became slightly cold.
“I know best that I cannot stop the execution of Cheongmyeong. But this time, it’s not something that can be taken lightly. Something will work out next time. But what if it happens twice? What if it happens three times?”
“……”
“It seems like he forgets once in a while, but that guy is also human. If a person gets seriously injured, he or she dies. At least that guy is going to push himself too hard again, but this time he’s really…” ”
I know.”
Yunjong calmly cut off Dang Soso. Although Dang Soso slightly narrowed his eyes and looked at him, Yun Jong’s expression did not waver.
“What you think won’t happen, so don’t worry.”
“Sahyung…”
“I didn’t come swinging my sword to suck your finger from behind. I had no choice but to do that on the coast, so I just held back. From
now on, I’ll just let this guy run wild. It won’t happen.”
Yoonjong was much more determined than usual. Tang Xiaoxiao looked at him with new eyes.
By nature, Yoonjong’s personality is gentle and
moderate. But sometimes there are times when you are tougher than anyone else in the volcano. Like right now.
“… I understand. Death penalty.”
Tang Xiaoxiao nodded without a word.
When the atmosphere calmed down a bit, Jogeol put her clasped hands on the back of my head, stretched, and joked.
“Okay. That’s easy. I’m already feeling sick to my stomach just thinking about stopping that bastard.”
“Still, we’re lucky.”
“……Yes?”
Yoonjong said with a grin.
“If it were the same, think about the person who would have been nagging Cheongmyeong until his ears exploded next to him. “How upset must you be because you can’t even be here right now?”
“Ah.”
Jogeol sighed for a moment and then chuckled.
“I’m sure that’s the case. With his personality.”
Another cabin.
Baekcheon was seated. Surprise flashed across Geumyangbaek’s face when he saw this.
Although he had already been through a fierce battle, there was not a single trace of blood on Baekcheon’s clothes. This means that Baekcheon had some spare time despite fighting such a battle.
‘Because it’s a volcano…’
I thought it was highly regarded. I thought I erased as much prejudice as I could and evaluated him to the best of my ability.
However, the power of Hwasan seen in action made Geumyangbaek’s efforts meaningless.
People who have never seen the sea will find it difficult to understand its vastness, no matter how much explanation they receive. Anyone who has never experienced a volcano like that cannot fully understand its power, no matter how much they hear about it and think about it.
‘If there are more than a hundred of these people gathered together…’
No, if you think about it, what he saw was not the power of a volcano. It is simply the performance of a few of the most famous people in Hwasan.
If it were not Haenam that was filling in for them now, but people who had always trained together through hardships and sorrows, what kind of power would they exert? Just thinking about it sent a chill down my spine.
‘I think we should evaluate Cheonwoo-maeng differently.’
It’s not that Geumyangbaek thinks badly of Cheon Woo-maeng. no. Rather, it was closer to evaluating it very highly.
Even if they had not risked their lives to find Haenam, he would have highly valued Cheon Woo-maeng’s ideals and values.
However, in one corner of his mind, there was a deep-rooted prejudice that the alliance formed by those who could not ultimately become the mainstream of the old faction was a blind faction.
But I learned this after watching the battle on the coast.
‘That’s not it.’
They were not pushed out, but joined. When I saw that sword and that person.
“…… first.”
At that moment, Baekcheon opened his mouth. Without realizing it, strength went into Geumyangbaek’s shoulders.
From the moment they met, Geumyangbaek had the utmost respect for Baekcheon as Hwasan’s deputy general, but after seeing him fight, when they met him, his attitude was bound to be different from before.
“I offer my deepest consolation to your heartbroken heart over the loss of your disciples.”
Geumyangbaek shook his head slowly and answered in a somber voice.
“Don’t worry about it. “It was something I was prepared to do.”
“……”
“And those kids must have made up their minds too.”
Baekcheon nodded silently. At that moment, Geumyangbaek cleared his throat. This is because he suddenly realized that he was watching Baekcheon’s reaction.
No, it is not appropriate to look at reactions.
Waiting for the other person’s evaluation before judging whether one’s own actions are right or wrong. Doesn’t the world call that ‘paying attention’?
Even though no one was looking into his inner thoughts, he felt secretly embarrassed.
However, if anyone other than Geumyangbaek had seen such a scene in front of them, it would have been inevitable.
It is for this reason that factions in a powerful group go to any lengths to retain at least one absolute expert.
He spoke calmly, trying to hide his embarrassment and embarrassment.
“I would also like to thank Deputy Jang Moon. It looks like the Hwasan Sword Association was injured, but I didn’t think he would come to us before checking on his well-being…” “It
’s only natural. Even if you were injured, how can you compare to those who lost their lives?”
Is that so? I don’t know.
What would it have been like if other members of the Gupa Ilbang sect other than Cheon Woo-daeng had been here?
Among those long sects, the wounds were not from the Hwasan Sword Association, but from Haenam. Was there even one person who would first try to console the disciple’s death?
‘Probably not.’
It may be a bit of a sad thought, but that’s the way the world is.
However, Baekcheon did not look at his priest’s wounds, but comforted the disciples of Haenam first, and came to comfort Geumyangbaek. Although he himself said it was a natural thing, he could not take such a natural thing for granted. The world calls a person a hero.
Geumyangbaek thought again. The power of Hwasan might not come from force, but from this part.
“But Jang Mun-in.”
At that time, Baekcheon raised his head and looked at Geumyangbaek. .
“This is the beginning.”
“……”
“Haenam’s disciples are probably very confused now. There is a clear difference between pledging to fight for your life and really fighting for your life.”
Geumyangbaek’s complexion hardened. These words cannot be refuted. No one else but Geumyangbaek is keenly aware of this fact, so how can the young disciples be appalled? “In times like these,
Jangmunin must console his disciples well.”
Normally, Geumyangbaek would have said something at this point. They will take care of it, so don’t worry.
But now, Geumyangbaek just nodded his head in approval. The experience he has is the experience of these people. Because I had to admit that it was not up to par.
“Sapaeryun will track us down right away. If that happens, there will be constant fighting from the moment we arrive in Gangnam.”
“……”
“Please do not let the hearts of your disciples break. “We will try our best.”
“Hmm.”
Geumyangbaek nodded heavily.
“I’ll do my best.”
“thank you.”
Geumyangbaek smiled awkwardly as he saw Baekcheon bowing his head politely.
“Though the situation is difficult… there is one good news.”
“What if you say good news?”
Baekcheon looked at him curiously. Then Geumyangbaek’s smile became a little more natural and brighter.
“There just happens to be a headwind blowing . am.”
Baekcheon frowned slightly as if he had difficulty understanding.
“In the eyes of Director Jang Moon, they may all appear to be the same South Sea people, but in fact, Guangdong and Hainan are different in every way, from culture to style. And that also includes the shape of the boat.”
“ah.”
Geumyangbaek held a sue.
“People from Hainan can see ships from Guangdong, but people from Guangdong rarely drive ships from Hainan.
So, even if you commandeer a ship, it will take quite some time to overcome this headwind.” “You can
say that you have a little more time.”
Geumyangbaek smiled brightly and looked at Baekcheon. But Baekcheon’s expression did not brighten at all.
“It’s presumptuous, but it’s a long story.”
“…Hmm?”
He shook his head heavily and spoke to Geumyangbaek.
“If you think that way, you are thinking of Sapaeryun… Maninbang too easily.”
“……”
“They won’t slow down their pursuit. “By any means.”
It was a voice full of confidence. Geumyangbaek closed his mouth for a moment.
And at the same time.
The scene that unfolded in Haenam proved that Baekcheon’s prediction was not so wrong.
