Episode 761 Sasuk! I keep hearing hallucinations! (1)
“What should I do?”
“They say that all those taken to the water shed become slaves.”
“…Why am I on this ship…”
It wasn’t just Hwasan’s disciples who were perplexed.
No, Hwasan’s disciples who could at least use a sword were better. The civilians who had been dragged all the way to Suchae without knowing why were so lost in thought that they could not help but tremble.
“Sasuk! Even now, to Monk Hyeyeon….”
“It’s impossible.”
Of course, it’s not difficult to attack and sink a few ships. However, the problem is that it is currently impossible to operate with this ship.
If you end up floating in the middle of the Yangtze River and waiting for the boat to sink, you will only slowly dry out and die. Either that or watch them sink the ship.
The only way to live or die was to come here.
“Drag it!”
As the boat docked at the water’s edge, the chain tightened.
Wow!
The ship they were on was pulled away with the sound of the bottom of the ship breaking apart.
As Hwasan’s disciples approached the ship’s railing, they saw the water enemies waiting in the water column jumping out all at once and surrounding the water’s edge.
There were more of them than I thought.
They said that the reason why they can’t subdue all the bandits living in the mountains is because there are too many of them, and the reason why they can’t bury all the bandits who live in the water is because there are too many of them… “Whew.
”
At that time, a slow breathing sound was heard from behind Baekcheon.
When I turned my head, the priests suddenly had their swords drawn with the faces of warriors.
“This is what happens in the end.”
“Well, it was a predetermined result anyway.”
“Can’t we just destroy those bastards now? Is that right, Sasuk?”
Baekcheon was momentarily speechless at their curiosity.
It was quite dispiriting to see so many enemies, but his priests didn’t look scared at all.
‘Idiots…’
It’s a situation that is enough to make them feel resentful.
It was Baekcheon who suggested boarding the ship and luring them in order to identify the enemy, and it was Baekcheon who failed to order a quick departure when the enemy approached. And now they have to be dragged here and fight a battle where their lives cannot be guaranteed.
Nevertheless, no one seemed to have any resentment toward him. Baekcheon looked at them quietly and spoke softly to Hyeyeon, who had been dragged here unexpectedly.
“I’m sorry, monk.”
Then Hyeyeon smiled and chanted a curse.
“Amitabha Buddha. “Binseung is not sure what the Lord is talking about.”
“….”
“Give the order, Sir. Even though I am a member of Shaolin, I will live and die according to the commands of my lord.”
Baekcheon bit his lower lip tightly.
heavy.
The weight I finally felt was pressing down on my shoulders. I understood the weight of taking responsibility for someone and leading them, but this was the first time I felt it so keenly.
‘Not a single person will die.’
Slurp.
A resolute light appeared in Baekcheon’s eyes as he drew his sword.
“It’s something I do every time. “It’s nothing new.”
“yes!”
Baekcheon’s eyes turned to the cliff.
It is impossible for civilians to climb that high cliff. However, it is also difficult to swim barefoot across the river. So, the most feasible way is to seize an intact speedboat from the enemy and flee with the civilians…
‘That can’t be that easy.’
but.
“I’ve never done anything easy in the first place! When the ship goes to the water, first get off and deal with the enemies!”
“yes!”
“Even during the fight, keep an eye on whether anyone gets on board. “If even one person dies, it is our loss.”
“I’ll keep that in mind.”
I know it’s difficult. But now the difficult task must be accomplished.
Baekcheon shouted after seeing that the boat dragged by the chain had almost reached the water.
“let’s go!”
He and other disciples of Hwasan jumped up onto the railing all at once without any time to reply. They rose like birds of prey, turned around, and fell into the middle of the waterside occupied by the enemy.
“Stab!”
“Turn it into skewers!”
The long spear and amiza stabbed countless disciples of the falling volcano. At that moment, Tang Soso spun around and scattered light downward.
“Eat!”
Love it!
Fine needles, as thin as cotton, fell on the enemies’ heads.
“Ugh!”
“What is this!”
As it rained down on their faces, the enemies reflexively turned their heads.
And that moment.
“Amitabha Buddha!”
With a brief shout, the power that Hyeyeon exuded flew towards the enemies with a formidable force.
Kwaaaaaaaa!
The enemies were swept away like leaves hit by a typhoon. Hwasan’s disciples landed lightly in the area they had neatly secured. Baekcheon ordered.
“Hit!”
Hwasan’s disciples, who were scattered in all directions, drew plum blossoms with their own swords without any hesitation.
As if Hyeyeon didn’t want to waste the time she had earned, the plum blossom sword that she created by spreading out her hands in one go bloomed splendidly. And soon, the enemies surrounding him were swept away in one fell swoop.
“Aaaahhh!”
“What is this!”
Hwasan’s Plum Blossom Sword Technique has now become a feature that every strongman has heard of at least once. But hearing it with your ears and seeing it with your eyes were literally worlds apart.
I heard it was a black energy that resembled fluttering flower petals, but who would have thought that something like flower petals would really flutter? This was something so bizarre that you would never believe it unless you saw it with your own eyes.
“What kind of sword energy…”
Small and thin sword energy like a flower petal falls as if dancing. No matter how hard they swung their extremely blunt weapons, it was impossible to block all of these petals.
That’s all.
Suddenly! Suddenly!
That fragile-looking sword is incredibly sharp. The fluttering petals were like sharp razor blades, cutting the body moment by moment.
“Ugh!”
“You damn thing!”
Red plum blossoms in full bloom brightly colored the bleak cliff below.
“Push it in at once!”
“yes!”
The disciples of the volcano responded loudly and swung their swords. The enemy, unable to handle the momentum, retreated again. Those who had reached the water’s edge retreated so far that they were submerged up to their waists.
“Chaeju!”
Desperate cries rang out from all over the place. The eyes of the black fish that got off the dragon boat and watched the scene were full of interest.
“In the past, Hwasan was said to be the best swordsman in the world. It seems that that is not a lie.”
It’s strange.
There was no way for him to know whether the swords called Hwasan Five Swords were especially like that, or whether all the martial arts of Hwasan were like that, but at least looking at the swords they were wielding, it would not be surprising if they were Sapa’s.
Although he dazzles people’s eyes with flashy magic tricks and fantastic swords, his sword skills that pierce the body without the slightest hesitation are also extremely practical.
furthermore.
“A-mi-ta-bul!”
A huge fire roared majestically, and a golden gold mine erupted from the middle of the flower garden where flower petals were in full bloom.
Quaaaaaaa!
Those who were swept away by the immense power that felt like a waterfall pouring down, could not even scream and were thrown off, falling into the Yangtze River.
with a plop! with a plop! with a plop!
The enemy trembled at the astonishing sight.
Those who are watching may be surprised with their mouths wide open, but they are not mere spectators but are in a position to deal with those in power. So I have no choice but to freak out.
And Hwasan’s disciples did not miss the moment when their enemies retreated. In essence, the Plum Blossom Sword Technique, as flashy as it is, is a sword technique that requires some tolerance when casting it.
It is inevitable that a sword that needs to scatter sword energy in a flashy manner will have slower activation compared to a simple sword that strikes in short bursts. Therefore, in order to perform the Plum Blossom Sword Technique, it is necessary to exchange swords appropriately and push the opponent away or create an opening.
However, if the enemy is in a situation where they are cowering like this, you can fire your sword more boldly than usual.
‘at a whack!’
‘We have to catch the steamer!’
Although Cheongmyeong is not here, the memories of fighting with him remain in my mind and engraved on my body. When dealing with a large number of people, you must never lose momentum.
Bold and colorful sword blades continued to rain down on the enemies.
“They’re monsters!”
“What kind of people…!”
The enemy became distraught and began to flee backwards.
If you are willing to risk your life to deal with the enemy, there is no reason to fight in numbers in the first place. When Sapa is winning, he is crueler than anyone else, but when defeat becomes dark, he runs away without looking back.
This is because they value profit over fame and put their own comfort above all else in the world.
As the enemy began to retreat helplessly, the black fish frowned.
“They seem like useless things.”
“What should I do?”
“It wouldn’t be a bad idea to come forward and trample on it, but…”
After thinking for a moment, the black fish muttered with a cruel smile.
“It wouldn’t be a bad idea to teach the world to these brats who run wild without knowing where they are. “It is also true that the strong do not necessarily win in a powerhouse.”
“All right.”
When Jo Seung winked at the subordinates next to him, some of the subordinates quickly ran out.
“Hmm.”
Zanpo Black Eo lightly tapped the gauntlet (iron combat gloves) worn on his waist.
“Things like minnows.”
The smile on his lips was truly triumphant.
‘good!’
Heat flashed in Baekcheon’s eyes.
They succeeded in suppressing the steamboat. Of course, this does not mean that they can defeat this large number of enemies alone. Even though we have already defeated dozens of them, the enemies are crowding around like grains of sand by the river.
Moreover, the true power of this water reservoir has not yet been revealed. Baekcheon was not an idiot who messed things up in the excitement of a brief victory.
‘behind.’
His gaze glanced back.
Even at this moment, the enemies were jumping out of the ship and flocking this way. In other words, there were only a few enemies on that anchored ship.
‘If we occupy the back area at once and have the civilians move in…’
I know. They have harpoons that can destroy ships. So, going out on a boat does not guarantee safety. Since it is a speed ship, it will be faster than a merchant ship, and since this ship also has a crew, it will not be far behind in speed if we just throw away our luggage and carry the body, but even so, we will have to fight an uphill battle.
But at least it’s better than fighting here.
‘First, we need to occupy the back and give the civilians time to move their boats…’
That was right then.
Pow! Pow!
Something bounced above their heads and exploded in a puff of smoke.
“what?”
gunpowder? Or artillery?
Baekcheon’s eyes instinctively raised his head and immediately wavered greatly. This is because what came through the smoke was none other than a large net.
“Blood damage…”
I tried to throw myself away, but it was too big. It was so large that it threatened to attack not only the disciples of Hwasan but also the enemies surrounding them.
“Tsk!”
There seemed to be no way to avoid that net unless I ran among the enemies.
“Damn it!”
The volcano’s disciples reflexively swung their swords at the falling net. The intention was to cut the net at once with the sword.
Kagang!
However, even though the sword energy touched the net, it did not split and fell down without change, making a loud metallic sound.
“Tsk!”
“Oh no!”
And the black net finally covered and crushed Huashan’s disciples like black water.
Baekcheon grabbed the net that was pressing heavily on his entire body and desperately slashed with his sword.
‘What on earth is it made of?’
I had never even heard of a net so strong that it could not be cut with a sword. If this continues, your movements will be restricted and there will be no way to avoid the harpoon stabbing you from above the net.
He grabbed the net with one hand and desperately pulled out his sword and slashed it again.
Ga-ga-ga-gak!
Only then did the net begin to cut.
“done!”
Baekcheon was about to shout in joy when a voice that pierced his ears rang out.
“It’s poison too! Everyone, stay away from the net!”
Baekcheon’s face turned pale at Tang Xiaoxiao’s urgent scream.
