Chapter 1479: The plan was sound. (4)
“Give me a penny!”
“Oh my gosh, I’ll get better. The child is so cute. “If you give a blessing, the child will receive the blessing in return.”
“If you ship just one dumpling, a hungry young beggar can be happy for two days. “Won’t you please share your happiness with a starving little beggar?”
A street in Gaebang-an surrounded by a large castle wall.
Dozens of beggars were begging with their heads bowed. However, the people passing by seemed to be very familiar with the scene and did not even pay attention to the beggars.
And in one corner of the high castle wall.
“…there are more beggars than real people.”
“That’s right.”
A dejected voice came out from the mouth of Ogeum, who was looking inside the castle with his body lowered as low as possible.
There was no joke or exaggeration mixed in. There seem to be more beggars than people walking on the streets. It’s not even just the main street. Every narrow alley was crowded with beggars lying down on their seats.
“…Aren’t beggars going to have to feed people at this point? “Can so many beggars make a living by begging in this town?”
“I don’t think it will work.”
Cheongmyeong’s crooked voice flew into their trembling ears.
“You sound like begging.”
“huh?”
“I told you. If you get to know those beggars, they might be the richest people in the world. “If you go to the Chongdan, you will be able to eat as much as you want, right?”
Yoonjong asked as if he didn’t understand.
“No, then why are you out on the street begging like that? “People with a lot of money.”
“Do you guys understand? “Those bastards have been like that since long ago.”
“So why…”
“Amitabha Buddha.”
At that time, Hyeyeon opened her mouth and gave a short exclamation as if she knew the answer.
“I heard that Hinayana is something that must be done regardless of whether one is wealthy or not.”
“yes? Are you begging even though you have money? why?”
“Because that is the lowest position.”
“…Eh?”
“I haven’t heard much about Hinayana, but I heard that everyone begs without exception in order to uphold the sect’s principle of looking at the world from the lowest point and helping those in need.”
“…I know what you mean, but…”
Yoonjong let out a laugh as if it was a bit absurd.
“It’s strange. “If you have a lot of money, you are no longer a beggar, but you beg to live as a beggar.”
“Why is that strange?”
“huh? “Aren’t you strange?”
“Of course it’s not strange. “That bastard is also bankrupt.”
At that moment, everyone’s eyes turned to Cheongmyeong.
“what? why me?”
Eventually everyone nodded.
“Things like that happen, too.”
“Yes, there must have been something going on.”
“Honestly, are there any conditions for doing something like that? “People who go around breaking people’s heads are also considered gurus.”
Yoonjong suddenly thought. Perhaps the existence of Cheongmyeong can help loosen the world’s strict standards a little.
Of course, I had to quickly shake off such useless thoughts. Too big a problem remained. He stared at Gaebongseong with a half-tired face.
“That’s not the problem now… how are we going to get in there?”
“…Wouldn’t something work out?”
“Somehow?”
Yoonjong rarely shed his eyes. The eyes were full of contempt.
“Hey, you crazy guy. Is this a situation that can be resolved by saying ‘somehow’? It’s overcrowded with beggars! “It would be easier to avoid Taesangno’s eyes and commit evil deeds.”
“execution. Maybe it wasn’t easy to begin with? “Is that bastard still broke?”
“uh…?”
Confusion flooded Yoonjong’s face. Just before he entered into serious Taoist skepticism, Bai Qian quickly opened his mouth.
“I have to find a way. “It’s impossible with a complacent attitude.”
“That’s definitely true, Sasuk.”
“sympathy.”
Tang Soso and Yu Iseol nodded in agreement. It is completely impossible to avoid the surveillance of beggars in all directions. Moreover, if the place they are trying to enter is an open space, wouldn’t the surveillance become more severe the closer they get?
At that time, Jo Geol lifted Baek Ah and showed the scene of the opening.
“Hey, don’t you know where the bird went from here?”
Baekah twitched her black nose and shook her small head. Even if it was a spirit creature, it seemed impossible to pinpoint the source of the smell from this distance.
“Okay. That doesn’t work. Quite useless…. evil! Argh! I told you not to pull my hair! I really am a serious idiot…. I was wrong, monk. This is a slip of the tongue. First, lower your fist. “You can’t get caught because of the light…”
Hyeyeon quietly lowered her raised fist.
“Once again, I’m not bald, I’m shaved.”
“Isn’t the result the same?”
“It’s different!”
In the end, Hyeyeon got angry. Baekcheon let out a long sigh as he watched the two fighting each other. It looks like they still have the energy to play around during this time. Aside from Jo Geol, that monk Hyeyeon…
“Hey, Cheongmyeong. “What can we do?”
“Haha. Private residence too. “Ask something obvious.”
“oh? As expected…”
“Nothing.”
…Baekcheon was tormented by the urge to cut that calm face to pieces. It was the first anger I felt in a very long time. Now that I think about it, I felt it quite often in the past…
“But you don’t have to think about it that hard. Anyway, all you have to do is infiltrate. “Now I just have to find a way!”
“hmm.”
Everyone nodded. It’s not because I understand. Because I know that nothing will change if I just talk nonsense.
“How about sneaking in at night? Then, surveillance will probably decrease.”
“Beggars have brighter eyesight at night. In the first place, important and confidential information usually comes out at night. “You don’t even know that?”
“Grunt.”
Tang Soso was left speechless by Cheongmyeong’s rebuttal.
“Then how about getting help with nearby commercial activities? “It would be difficult to notice if you went in hiding under a pile of luggage.”
“Hey! Do you think merchants have become the number one target for surveillance due to the spread of information in the commercial world this time? You’ll be caught before you can roll the wheel twice. Anyway, I have no thoughts, no thoughts!”
“….”
Jo Geol’s eyes trembled.
“Then… um.”
Baekcheon scratched his head and said.
“How about changing your clothes? “As long as those people don’t recognize us, we won’t have any problems getting around.”
“That’s not it.”
“Is that okay?”
“Wow, it’s really private.”
“Dismissed.”
Baekcheon’s body trembled. When these bastards talk among themselves, they listen to things like idiots… Why am I the only one…
“Sasuk.”
“huh?”
“Just stay in that corner and don’t say anything.”
“…sorry.”
Baekcheon crumpled. Cheongmyeong clicked his tongue.
“Well, I may have thought about it in my own way, but we all know that it’s nonsense, right?”
“know. Even if you disguise yourself, it is difficult to hide the fact that you are an unmanned person. There must be a series of brilliant masters hiding among the beggars, but a disguised warrior enters the opening? Dozens of beggars will catch up with you before you even take a few steps?”
“Then wouldn’t it be okay if I disguise myself as a warrior?”
“It won’t work.”
This time, Tang Soso shook his head.
“Even if you can somehow hide the energy of Taoism, a magnificent energy flows from the people who are part of a sect that is as big as a volcano. This is not something ordinary martial artists can produce. It will actually stand out more.”
“Is that so?”
“yes. I don’t know if the executioners are from Hwasan to begin with, but even when I was in the Tang family in the past, I used to distinguish people from the old group as if they were ghosts. “Beggars are probably even more so.”
“Okay. Then, there is no obvious solution….”
Yoonjong scratched his head.
In the first place, this makes no sense. Open guys have been spying on people their whole lives. What sense does it make to enter their headquarters without being detected?
It would be easier to go to the Demonic Cult’s headquarters, have a cup of tea with Cheonma, and then come back.
“Cheongmyeong. No matter how much I think about it, this won’t work. “Let’s find another way.”
“There is no other way. “You must go.”
“You say there is no way? “Isn’t this realistically impossible?”
“Why isn’t there a way? Yes! What that means is….”
“I’m telling you in advance, don’t tell me that bullshit that you can just shut up, attack, beat up all the bastards, and get to where you want. “That’s not possible.”
“…Uh…no?”
“Are you talking about words? If we do something like that, Jang Mun-in and Taesang Jang-mun-in will try to rip us out of our skin. “Don’t even dream!”
“no way. “That’s the easiest.”
Cheongmyeong licked his appetite as if he was truly disappointed. Yoonjong’s blood pressure soared for a moment, and he clutched the back of his head in frustration. No, what on earth is happening with this bastard’s head?
At that time, Cheongmyeong said while scratching his chin.
“There’s nothing we can do if it doesn’t work out the best. “You have to use your lane.”
“huh? “There is a lane?”
“uh. Well, anyway, if we go in there, all we have to do is not get caught that we are volcano bastards.”
“There’s no way to avoid getting caught? We are warriors, and we are warriors who exude the unique energy of the Daemun faction. Besides, this is Hanam. As soon as you open your mouth, you will be caught because of your Shaanxi dialect. But how do you not get caught?”
“Yes, that’s right. That’s right.”
“…yes?”
Tang Soso looked at Cheongmyeong as if wondering what that meant. Then, suddenly, I saw Cheongmyeong’s smile and trembled.
“What are you planning to do, execution?”
“As you said. Still, you just have to be someone who isn’t weird. Let’s see… Even if you don’t have to go into the castle, you can probably get some cotton cloth. And everyone can sew, right?”
“can not.”
“Cloth can be cut.”
Cheongmyeong looked at the distant sky in response to Yoo Yi-seol and Jo Geol. What would these chicks do for a living if they weren’t unmanned?
“So what can I make?”
“Oh, that’s not what I’m telling you.”
“huh? “What does that mean?”
“The person who knows best what it looks like is that guy, so ask around. “You probably even remember the length of the sleeves, right?”
“…that guy?”
Everyone’s eyes turned to one direction at Cheongmyeong’s chin gesture. Baekcheon was still sitting in the corner with his knees together.
“huh? me?”
As he was deeply agonizing over what life was, he was startled by everyone’s gaze and looked at Cheongmyeong. Cheongmyeong nodded.
“Uh, Sasuk. “You.”
“What do you mean, I know more about clothes than you do… I’ve never really paid attention to things like clothes…” At
that moment, Baekcheon’s eyes widened to the point where they couldn’t get any bigger.
“You… you, you crazy bastard?”
Baekcheon’s face was distorted to the point of being cruel.
“oh? “I think you understand.”
“The guy called Volcanic Disciple! Is that an idea that a proud disciple of Hwasan could come up with? I can’t! Even if I die, I can’t put that filth on my body again! I don’t! “It would be better to rip off the skin!”
Baekcheon struggled with a twinkle in his eye. Cheongmyeong smiled and walked over to him and placed his hand on his shoulder.
“Honestly, you wanted to try it on again at least once, right?”
“Die, you crazy bastard!”
“Wow, crazy. “He’s really pulling out a knife.”
“Stop that guy quickly!”
Hyeyeon, who was blocking the sound leaking through her inner cavity, suddenly looked up at the distant sky.
“…Amitabha Buddha.”
Even after going to Haenam, these people have not changed.
At that time, Jo Geol spoke seriously.
“The monk’s light is reflected and it’s dazzling. “Please move to the side a little bit.”
“…Get over it, Jogeol Dojo.”
And it seemed like the same thing happened to Hyeyeon.
