Episode 1529 Now it’s my turn. (4)
“It’s an attack… “Cheongmyeong, you can’t believe it…”
Hyeonjong opened his eyes wide and looked at Cheongmyeong, as if something had occurred to him.
“Hitch!”
At that moment, Cheongmyeong sneezed loudly and rubbed under his nose.
“It’s not even a surprise, suddenly something happens.”
“⋯⋯.”
“no way. Do not worry. I’m not an idiot, so you think I’m going to attack them and break into the Sapaeryeon alone with a knife? “You’re saying you’re going to pick up every piece of Jang Il-so?”
“No?”
“Isn’t it?”
“You said it wasn’t?”
“But these?”
As Cheongmyeong rolled his eyes, Ogum slowly averted his gaze.
Meanwhile, Lim So-byeong slowly tapped his shoulder with a folded fan and pondered Cheongmyeong’s words.
‘It’s an upside-down tower.’
It’s not wrong. The tower was so huge and splendid that I couldn’t even feel it, but Sapaeryeon was definitely a deformed force.
In the meantime, Cheonwoomaeng also had concerns along the same lines, and that was the existence of Cheongmyeong.
Cheongmyeong is the link between Cheonwoomaeng and the source of volcanoes. The moment he collapses, neither Cheonwoomaeng nor Hwasan will ever be the same.
So what about Sapaeryeon?
Can Sapaeryun without Jangilso be Sapaeryan?
no. That won’t be possible. Rather, it is more serious than Cheonwoomaeng.
Even if Cheongmyeong disappears, Cheonwoomaeng will maintain at least a shell of itself, but it is clear that with Jang Ilso gone, Sapaeryeon will be torn to pieces to the extent that even the words of division and discord are meaningless.
It was as if this period when Sapaeryun was showing its power was a lie.
If you think about it, it was an obvious problem. But until now, no one has really figured out this obvious thing.
Lim So-byeong opened his mouth.
“In the end, it means that you can’t win if you play a big game.”
Cheongmyeong’s face became sullen at those words.
“No, it’s not like I can’t win…”
“iced coffee. I chose the wrong expression. “Then the damage will increase, right?”
“yes! yes!”
Only then did Cheongmyeong’s face become satisfied, as if he liked it. Lim So-byeong chuckled.
“It would be rare for anyone to beat a defeated army by sitting across the table and exchanging moves. Moreover, if that side captures the player, even the world’s most powerful player would not be able to win.”
“Hmm.”
A look of sadness spread across many people’s faces.
“So there are only two ways to win. One is to turn everything over and smash the checkerboard into the guy’s head.”
“Are you crazy?”
“Come to your senses, Green Forest King.”
Lim So-byeong calmly opened his fan.
“The other thing is to bring him down to the table.”
As Lim So-byeong’s voice rang out heavily, everyone’s faces also became serious.
Jang Il-so’s life.
That is the way to end all of this and reduce the blood flowing through the entire midfield just a little. Everyone had no choice but to sympathize.
“Way?”
“I don’t know.”
Tang Gunak’s eyebrows twitched. Lim So-byeong smiled and looked back at Cheongmyeong.
“But I think I know someone… Wouldn’t that be enough?”
Tanggunak let out a sigh. Hyeonjong asked on his behalf.
“What are you going to do, Cheongmyeong?”
“I don’t know either.”
“Huh?”
“No, don’t look at me like that. “It’s not that I don’t know how to do it, it’s just that I haven’t decided yet which move to use.”
“Why?”
“That’s obvious. “I don’t know how he will come out.”
At that time, an unexpected person who had been quietly listening opened his mouth.
“What you’re saying is that you’re going to watch its movements and bite it when you get the chance. Am I right?”
“I think Sasuk came to Hwasan for no reason.”
“huh? “What are you talking about…”
“It seems like your intelligence increases once you wear Jongnam’s clothes, but I’d rather just…”
“What are you doing?”
“Giggles.”
Cheongmyeong laughed playfully as he saw Baekcheon getting upset. But soon he stopped laughing and lowered his eyes.
“It’s similar, but it’s not.”
“No?”
“He can’t see any gaps like that. It’s not about waiting until you see an opening. “It’s something you create.”
“how?”
“I told you. “I don’t know that yet.”
Baekcheon sighed until the ground disappeared. The feelings of others were not that different. How on earth can I do this…
“Don’t try to understand.”
At that time, Lim So-byeong opened his mouth.
“It’s not like explaining Shingungjeolhak to a child who has held a sword for the first time will make them understand, right?”
“⋯⋯That’s right.”
“If you tell us, we won’t understand anyway. “The important thing is not whether you can understand… but whether you can believe.”
Lim So-byeong’s sharp eyes turned to Cheongmyeong. Everyone followed him and stared at Cheongmyeong.
Can you believe it even if you don’t understand it?
“Cheongmyeong. “Can you do it?”
When Hyeonjong asked, Cheongmyeong smiled.
“It’s not something you can do, you have to do it.”
“⋯⋯.”
“Somehow.”
Hyeonjong nodded heavily. Although he was answering jokingly, he didn’t seem to know how much meaning was contained in those words. Hyeonjong believed in Cheongmyeong.
However, Cheonwoomaeng is not the place to make decisions alone. He asked, looking at the others except Cheongmyeong.
“For other people…”
“You don’t have to ask.”
Tanggunak cut off the horse’s waist as if even that action was unnecessary.
“I am here because I believed in it in the first place.”
Everyone nodded firmly in agreement. When it comes to Cheongmyeong, even the five swords are willing to bet on something else first.
“The decision has been made.”
This is a response without even the slightest disagreement. Now that an opinion had been reached, Tang Junyak looked at Qingming.
“So what can we do now?”
Cheongmyeong laughed when he heard those words.
It was that ominous smile.

“⋯⋯In a way, it is natural to give refugees the work of building houses and putting up fences.”
“yes. Because they can’t keep playing and eating. “Don’t people feel stable only when they earn money through work?”
“It is natural for the party to hire people for its newly created workshop.”
Baekcheon nodded as he continued sewing.
“Because the manpower in the workshop is not enough to supply weapons to the entire Cheonwoo Alliance.”
“Yes.”
Jo Geol, who was listening, opened her bleary eyes and said with an absurd expression on her face.
“No, this is bigger than I thought?”
“⋯⋯What?”
“Originally, the Dang family workshop is a place where you can’t even hold a hammer unless you have the Dang family name. “The fact that the craftsmen at such workshops accepted people who were not skilled craftsmen and could not even hold a hammer…”
For Jo Geol, who grew up in Chengdu, it was truly a world-changing experience.
“Because the matriarch ordered it?”
“Don’t say anything you don’t know. You will be put to death. What kind of people are the people in Tangga’s workshop? Do you think that can be done with just the command of the head of the family?”
Baekcheon said bitterly.
“⋯⋯It must be that the elder Cho-pyeong’s legacy has continued.”
“⋯⋯.”
“Because you said it wasn’t important. “The people who feel this the most are none other than the craftsmen of Danga Workshop.”
Jo Geol, who was raising his voice, also nodded at these words.
“If you think about it that way, it’s understandable.”
“Yes. “I heard that the Galaxy Sector is also hiring a large number of refugees?”
“It looks like they will also share the reclaimed land.”
“For free?”
“Why would you accept money from refugees just because they have money? It would be like receiving a small amount of rent for the grains grown on that land. Well, I guess it might make money. “He has a long-winded personality.”
Yoonjong chuckled.
“It would be fortunate if a group of noblemen who go to collect grains came out.”
“That’s right.”
Jo Geol, who was a child of a merchant and had a clear and sensitive concept of profit and loss, seemed to be quite appalled by this.
But in the meantime, Baekcheon thought of something else.
‘A house was built, land for farming was created… and there was also a place to work…’
There volcanoes control most of the land. Then, it is as obvious as seeing fire how the volcano will treat those who work in that land.
Not only King Hyeonjong, but also Unam, the leading scholar of the current era, was a weak-hearted person, which is a shame.
“I’m a refugee…”
“yes?”
Baekcheon muttered softly and laughed.
How long can we really call them refugees?
If refugees refer to those who left because they were harmed, they will always be refugees, but if they refer to those who left for a while and then return…
Well, shouldn’t that name tag be taken off soon? I guess there’s no need to go back.
There is a place to sleep, food to eat, and a place to work. Is there a need to leave a place like that and go back?
“⋯⋯How far were you thinking?”
“What do you keep muttering like that, Sasuk?”
“Just leave it alone. My mother always made a fuss like that when she sewed. Argh! Are you throwing needles in your face?”
Baekcheon distorted his face and retrieved the thrown needle.
‘One of the biggest weaknesses of the volcano is that the adjacent city is small.’
I had this thought at first glance, but I definitely understood it after watching the release.
Tangjia borders Chengdu, Shaman borders Wuhan, and Shaolin also borders the huge cities of Luoyang and Zhengzhou on both sides.
Although Hwasan also lies along the west coast, Jongnam, which is closer and has greater influence, was much stronger.
Even if things are a little different now, there is no guarantee that this will continue forever. If the volcano’s power slows down even a little, those greedy Jongnam bastards will swallow up Xi’an in one go.
Even if you prevent that, in the end, unlike other clans, you will have to share the city of Seo-an with Jong-nam.
‘Territory is not simply the land you occupy. ‘By forming relationships with those within it, making money, receiving disciples, and becoming a conduit for disciples to advance into the world.’
If the virtuous cycle is not properly achieved, the clan will dry up and die in the mountains. Isn’t this what all of Huashan’s disciples have already experienced?
Baekcheon, who always took this into consideration, tried to secure possession of Xi’an first after becoming Jangmunin.
But I never thought they would build a city here.
In this way, even if an era comes when Hwasan does not produce talented people, Hwasan will not fail.
“⋯⋯Did you really think everything through until you did this? “Maybe I just did it because I wanted to make money.”
“What do you keep muttering to yourself?”
“You mentioned money, right? “That’s what Cheongmyeong thinks.”
“Oh, that’s right.”
“noisy.”
Baekcheon sighed deeply.
If we don’t win right away, we prepare for the battle that will end in everything decades and hundreds of years later. This was no ordinary crazy person.
At that time, Yoonjong let out a long sigh and said.
“I understand everything, but why are we even doing this…?”
“Didn’t you hear it during the meeting?”
“I heard it.”
“If you’re going to fight and win by killing people, you don’t have to. But if it means fighting to ensure that even one more person survives, it must be fought.”
“⋯⋯.”
“I agree with that.”
Yoonjong also nodded.
Among the agenda items presented at the subsequent meeting, the most accepted one was the issue of medicine.
“⋯⋯I really thought Soso was crazy.”
“At that moment, Cheongmyeong seemed like a normal person to me too.”
What Dangso Soso, who suddenly stood up on the spot, argued was very clear and simple.

“The party family must be disbanded.”
“What…?”
“They say the party should be disbanded.”
Tanggunak’s mouth opened wide. Due to the shock, I forgot everything about my body and my dignity.
His eyes soon turned to Cheongmyeong.
“⋯⋯It’s not me.”
Whether it was a lie or not, Qingming’s face looked aggrieved by the world. Only then did Tang Junyue look at Tang Xiaoxiao again.
His daughter finally lost her mind.
