Chapter 1476: The plan was sound. (1)
Paaaaat!
Several people ran vigorously through the early morning twilight toward the direction where the red sun was rising.
“ah! “Get away from me, man!”
Kiiiiiii!
“get off! It’s heavy! “It’s hard for me too!”
Kiiiiiii!
Jo Geol’s face distorted. Baekah was desperately clinging to his arm.
Where does the talent to express ‘I can’t run on my own feet even if I die’ with the face of the weasel theme come from? Even if it’s a spirit creature, that’s true.
“execution! “Don’t just look at me like that, get rid of this bastard.”
“…Just be patient.”
“No…”
“Honestly, even if you were in his shoes, you probably wouldn’t want to run again. “It’s like running to Haenam twice and then lying down, even if it’s a horse instead of a weasel.”
“Of course that’s true.”
“It’s a pity.”
At those words, Jo Geol glanced at Baek Ah again. Seeing the figure with big teardrops hanging from his two black eyes, he felt like a bad guy who was trying to get rid of this guy and had no answer.
“No, I know that, but… I didn’t order that, right? Why are you clinging to me? “In the first place, Cheongmyeong was given to him, right?”
“It’s hot.”
“….”
“Baekah is different from where he can stretch his feet. “I guess I thought that if I clung to the guy who said it was hot, I would become a real scarf.”
Jogeol shook his head.
“Ugh. “I’d rather die than get sick.”
Jo Geol took a deep breath and looked in the direction where the sun was rising.
“So how far are you going to go? “Hanam arrived a long time ago.”
“Do you know? “That guy will decide.”
Cheongmyeong was still running in the lead. Baekcheon next to him was the same.
“Whoop.”
Baekcheon jumped over a small stream and took a quick breath.
“why? “Out of breath?”
A loud voice came from next to me. Baekcheon glanced at Cheongmyeong and frowned.
“What are you going to say again?”
“No, it doesn’t seem like you ran particularly well, but you seemed out of breath. “Are you in pain?”
“You’re thinking of cat and mouse. “Just worry about yourself.”
“Yay yea. “Well, if you say that, it only worries me.”
Baekcheon gritted his teeth at the sly reply.
“How far do you plan to go?”
“huh?”
“You’ve already reached Hanam, right? “I’m asking where the destination is.”
“well.”
Qingming shrugged his shoulders without giving a clear answer.
“I have to look for it from now on.”
“huh?”
“I know roughly, but it’s not exact yet.”
It was a completely incomprehensible answer. But Baekcheon understood what Cheongmyeong was saying. It’s not because he’s wise, but because I’ve grown tired of Cheongmyeong’s ambiguous tone of voice.
“Are you saying that if you run like this, the place you are going will be revealed?”
“It looks like your head hasn’t gone bad. “There’s no need to get a pulse.”
“….”
I don’t completely understand. But anyway, I understood that this current run wasn’t completely meaningless, so that was it.
“Are the chords okay? “I left without even saying anything.”
Of course, it’s not like I didn’t say anything at all. I did it.
He rushed over and told Jang Mun-in that he was going to Hanam, and came all the way here as if running away, leaving Unam alone who was so dazed that he couldn’t even open his mouth.
Cheongmyeong read the concern on Baekcheon’s face and laughed.
“You’ve been nagging me to put it down, but now that you’ve stopped working, it seems like you’re starting to worry. “Which beat are you asking me to dance to?”
“That’s not what I meant, man!”
“No need to worry. “Because everyone is trained to that level.”
Baekcheon’s eyes narrowed slightly.
That is certainly true. Unless there is a situation where Sapaeryeon suddenly launches an all-out attack, there will be no problems with harmony.
There may be many small problems, but in harmony, there are Tanggunak, Lim Sobyeong, Hyeonjong, and Hwangjongui.
Turning harmony into a city is not an easy task. However, I did not hear any concerns that those people would not be able to get together and handle even a single task.
“It’s training…”
It’s a little different from trust in ability. This was trust in the experiences they had had. Haven’t you overcome so many twists and turns?
“Looking back, I realized how terribly I endured it.”
“Once again.”
Baekcheon nodded. I was definitely able to understand the word ‘training’ rather than just words.
There is just one catch.
“…I became stronger through training. So, does this mean I can entrust the work to you with peace of mind?”
“Well, that’s kind of it.”
“What about those who couldn’t?”
Baekcheon asked. Cheongmyeong did not answer right away, but glanced back at him. Baekcheon quickened his pace as if he wasn’t asking anything too serious.
Cheongmyeong shrugged his shoulders.
“well. What should I do? “I’ve never really thought about that before?”
“…That’s your answer.”
“Sasuk, isn’t that an insult?”
Baekcheon laughed bitterly.
“So what happens if you keep running?”
“Wow, you suddenly change your mind after cursing me? Dongryong has also become quite sly. “I can send you off now.”
“Stop talking nonsense and just answer. “What are you aiming for?”
“It’s simple. “Let’s think about it backwards.”
“Backwards?”
“Yeah, backwards. As you know, we have become quite famous now, right? is not it?”
“….”
“That penny-pinching executioner has a star nickname, so it’s only a matter of time, and now everyone else will have a star nickname, right? Sasuk’s… what was that? Was it a volcanic sword?”
“It’s a straight sword, you bastard!”
“Yeah, that one. Anyway, that strange nickname will soon change. “It usually happens that way.”
Baekcheon asked with a distorted face as he was out of breath.
“…What does that have to do with this?”
“I told you, let’s think about it backwards.”
Cheongmyeong grinned.
“Becoming famous means attracting attention and more people recognizing you. And the number of people paying attention to each movement increases.”
“What on earth are you trying to say?”
“So it’s backwards?”
Cheongmyeong gestured towards the front. There was a huge castle wall where he pointed.
“Luoyang?”
Luoyang, a huge city in Hanam. The walls of Luoyang were welcoming Baekcheon with the morning sunlight.
“We’re not doing this.”
Cheongmyeong grinned.
“It’s what makes them do it.”
And with his eyes shining, he spurted forward toward the open gates of Luoyang.
❀ ❀ ❀
“Hmm.”
Wonpyeong (元平), who had recently been appointed as the head of the newly opened Luoyang Bunta, let out a groan with a disapproving expression. The sunlight coming through the hut stung my eyes.
“Tsk.”
A lazy daily life with nothing to do. This is a dream-like situation that no beggar would wish for. But Wonpyeong was dissatisfied with all of this.
“Why the hell am I here…”
His mission was simple. Examining the dynamics of Hwaeum here in Luoyang, not far from Hwaeum. To be precise, it was to monitor the movements of Cheonwoo-maeng, who resides in Hwaeum.
It was an unfulfilling mission. All the beggars of a similar level to him are preparing to fight against that scammer. But isn’t his job to watch over Cheon Yu-maeng, not Safa Do?
Although it is necessary, it is not enjoyable. I can’t even say that it’s a just thing. No matter how much effort you have made, it is a difficult task to boast about. Who would take pleasure in such a task?
“Damn it. “The beggars I see are all senile.”
I just sighed.
At some point, I started to think that openness wasn’t really openness. If he knew about openness, he wouldn’t have been half-assed in a situation like this where the scam was running wild.
“…What on earth are you thinking about the ark?”
He, who had been grumbling repeatedly, got up with a heavy body. Since I couldn’t drink alcohol in the morning, I was planning to stop by a nearby Julu kitchen and get some leftover food. But then.
“Bu Buntaju! Bunta Lord!”
The door to the hut where he lived burst open. The barely connected hinges snapped and the worn-out door fell apart.
“Hey…! “How did you fix that!”
“This is not the time, Buntaju! “This is a big deal!”
Wonpyeong, who was about to vent his frustration, stopped when he saw the face of the beggar who burst through the door. The expression on his face was truly contemplative.
“What? Did Cheon Woo-maeng even move?”
“That’s right, Cheon Woo-maeng! No, it’s not Cheonwoo-Maeng! “That Cheonwoo-Meng…!”
“What is he saying now? “Can’t you speak clearly?”
“The five swords of Cheonwoomaeng!”
“huh? What are you talking about? “The five swords are coming?”
“The five swords of Tianyou Meng have now arrived in Luoyang!”
Wonpyeong opened his eyes so wide that they were torn apart.
“Oh Ogham? “You mean the volcano five swords?”
“yes! Shaolin’s Hyeyeon is also here!”
“Why did they come to this place? “You were definitely in Shaanxi until yesterday?”
“Well, I don’t know! “They say they entered the gates of Luoyang a little while ago!”
Wonpyeong’s face also turned white as he reported it.
“Is it an attack?”
“Speak like a horse! Why is the Ogham attacking us?”
“Isn’t that right?”
Even though the relationship between the nine factions and Cheon Woo-maeng has become thin ice, there is still no way Cheon Woo-maeng will attack the nine factions.
Then why did he suddenly appear in Luoyang?
“Now wait a minute! “Among the five swords, is there even the Hwasan Sword Association?”
“there is! The Hwasan Sword Association has also arrived!”
“Heeeeeeeeeek!”
Wonpyeong’s eyes trembled as if there had been an earthquake.
The report on the movements of Cheongmyeong of the Hwasan Sword Association is treated as a special among specials, along with the movements of Jang Il-so, a master of swordsmanship, throughout the opening. The importance was so great that even the fact that the Hwasan Sword Association sneezed twice in a row today had to be classified as special.
“Report to the headquarters immediately! right now!”
“What should I see and do!”
“Damn it, just use everything you know! “Send a telegram immediately!”
“Yes yes!”
“Delivery everything not only to the headquarters, but also to nearby buntas! “They might move past here, so place all the bastards and keep an eye on them!”
“yes!”
The beggar who received the order rushed out in a hurry. Wonpyeong, who had been watching the scene for a moment, turned around.
‘I never thought I’d use it so quickly.’
He hastily scrawled words on a piece of paper roughly placed on a dirty desk. And then the curtain on the side was pulled back. The cage was revealed.
Sting.
A small bird like a sparrow let out a cry and tilted its head. Its size and appearance were no different from that of a sparrow, but its feathers were shining golden. Just by looking at this, you can tell that it is an unusual bird.
The beggar took out the bird and rolled paper into the container tied to its legs. It is a gold-level sword provided by Cheongmyeong of the Hwasan Swordsmen Association in case something mysterious happens. I didn’t even know where this whole world was going.
“done.”
Wonpyeong, who had sealed the container well, opened the window. The golden sparrow took one look at the blue sky, kicked Wonpyeong’s hand, and flew up.
❀ ❀ ❀
“…Wow.”
“What is flying like this? “Has a hawk taken off?”
“…That’s Jeonseo-gu, man. “It’s not just a pigeon.”
“I know that, the death penalty. What I mean is, why are all these people flying around like crazy all of a sudden?”
“I know.”
As soon as he entered Luoyang, Ogeum laughed as he saw pigeons flying in all directions.
I thought there would be some level of caution, but didn’t this go too far? It felt good, yet strangely dirty.
“But why did we stop?”
“How do I know? “I stood up because that bastard suddenly stood up.”
Yunjong and Jo Geol’s gaze turned to Cheongmyeong. He stopped in the middle of the street and rested his chin on one hand, watching the birds soaring closely.
“Hmm. “It’s not that, it’s not that, it’s not that…”
“…What are you looking for?”
“That’s not it either.”
“hey! “What are you looking for?”
“No, I’m not looking for anything in particular.”
“huh?”
Cheongmyeong grinned as he looked at the Jeonseogu flying across the Luoyang sky.
“Don’t you think there’s at least one thing? Jeonseo-gu is Jeonseo-gu. It looks amazing at first glance, and although it is similar, is it unique? A great Jeon Seo-gu that gives that kind of emotional feeling?”
“…Cheongmyeong. “When we get back, let’s get the pulse first.”
“Okay. “It must be there.”
“All of Jeonseo-gu is the same, Jeonseo-gu! Just relax… over there! Cheongmyeong! that!”
Baekcheon, without speaking, opened his eyes and hurriedly pointed to a corner of the sky.
“Isn’t that what you’re talking about? That yellow thing!”
“oh?”
Cheongmyeong looked at the place Baekcheon pointed and let out an exclamation.
“Hey! “I heard that Dongryong also has some use for dog poop!”
“You can’t even use dog poop for medicine! No, that’s not important! Can I follow that?”
“What can I say?” “If you pretend, it’s okay!”
Cheongmyeong grinned and watched the golden bird moving away.
“It doesn’t seem like a thousand miles, so maybe it’s at least one level higher? “If I had to give it a name, it would be ‘Millennium Golden Ball’?”
“It looks like a sparrow, not a pigeon.”
“…Let’s do it roughly.”
Cheongmyeong gave Baekcheon a mischievous frown and pointed at the sparrow that had taken off.
“Let’s go. Let’s see who owns that precious-looking bird!”
Cheongmyeong kicked the ground hard.
