Episode 970 This is the fight you started. (5)
Finally, even Tangga landed on Maehwa Island.
The court’s fingertips trembled as they watched with wide eyes.
‘What… is this happening?’
That’s crazy. Crossing the river using a wooden board as a stepping stone?
‘That’s easy!’
It is a road that can be cut off at any time. If the waterway’s response had been a little faster and they had destroyed both the front and back wooden boards when they reached the center of the river, Hwasan and Tangga would have been stranded on wooden boards no bigger than a skiff.
What tragedy happened after that?
That kind of thing can’t be called a strategy. Anything that cannot be discussed is not worth calling a strategy.
Bae Su-jin’s strategy is to at least inflict decent damage to the opponent and then be killed. However, as soon as even one part is wrong, it is nothing more than a crazy act that cannot cause much damage to the opponent and just falls into hell.
But…
“Why does that work!”
The courtroom’s voices burst out with a mixture of embarrassment, anger, and injustice.
This is ridiculous. Why aren’t those reckless methods paying the price?
It feels like watching people who jumped into the fire pit of hell carrying oil and walking through the fire unharmed.
Common sense would dictate that those who clicked their tongues at the sight would be right, but when things turn out this way, don’t the people who were watching the scene turn into idiots and fools?
Shaolin was like that right now.
No matter how many times I think about it, the decision he made is correct. Jumping into the Yangtze River, which was guarded by those ditches and man-in-rooms, was tantamount to suicide.
But what does it mean now?
Even if the probability of safely arriving at Maehwa Island using that method was as high as that of a camel passing through the eye of a needle, since Cheon Woo-maeng actually succeeded in doing so, Shaolin, who has hesitated here until now, is just a fool.
“this…!”
The court couldn’t shake off its anger and glared across the river, shaking its fists.
Those who only look at the outside will say that Hwasan and Dangga succeeded in gambling by outwitting the Sapae-ryeon, but if you look inside, it is not true.
There is only one reason why all of this happened.
“Jang…Ilso….”
The court changed it.
Jang Il-so, who is no different from the devil when it comes to using his brain, couldn’t have missed what the court thought as well. Normally, he would have leisurely waited for Huashan and Tangga to reach the middle of the river and then broken the wooden boards at the front and back to tie their feet.
But Jang Il-so didn’t move at all.
No, it’s not that it doesn’t move.
Maninbang’s ships are surrounding Maehwado Island from the other side of Maehwado Island, that is, from the Gangnam side. A place where that volcano and Tang family can never reach.
On the outside, it looks like they are putting pressure on the Nangung family by surrounding Maehwa Island, but in reality, they are just sitting by and taking their hands off everything that is happening on the Yangtze River!
As if he hoped that Hwasan and Dang would rescue Namgung and return safely!
“Jang Il-so! “You damn bastard!”
Absolutely cruel screams poured out of the courtroom.
The extreme malice was enough to make my body tremble. What is even more painful is that no one in the world will believe what he is seeing now.
Who would believe it?
Even if he keeps saying the right things and shouting at the top of his lungs that this was all Jang Il-so’s plan, no one in the court will listen to him.
At best, they would laugh at him and dismiss it as Shaolin’s struggle in a crisis.
This place is Baekcheokgandu. There is no place to retreat anymore.
“Director…”
The court looked back with a stern expression. Jong-ri-hyung, who was watching the situation together, asked in a suppressed voice.
“…Shouldn’t we do something?”
“….”
“…I wish we hadn’t come, but if we just watch and then go back, the whole world will criticize us. “Shouldn’t we do something now?”
But what? What on earth should I do?
Do you mean to show condescension by following the path blazed by that volcano and the Tang family? Are you saying that the world’s nine factions are going to follow Cheon Woo-maeng and chase after him at all costs?
Zhongli-hyung, who was looking at the court’s complexion, added with a nervous look on his face.
“Of course, I know it is a difficult decision. But it’s better to do something than watch like this…”
“Wait.”
“Bangjang!”
“Didn’t I tell you to wait for me?”
For a moment, Jong-ri-hyeong’s face hardened in confusion. The unconcealable disappointment in the court was clearly visible in their eyes.
But the court just bit its lips.
‘Can not be done.’
I can’t go.
It’s difficult to explain. No, no matter how much I explain, you will not be able to understand a greeting like Jong Li-hyung.
What would happen if they jumped into that river even now?
That vicious Jang Il-so will only target Shaolin to the point of extreme, leaving Hwasan and Tangga alone.
To spread the word throughout the world that Hwasan and Tang Ga had done this without difficulty, and that Shaolin had suffered enormous damage just by chasing them.
The court knew.
The terrible and vicious trap that Jang Il-so laid on the Yangtze River.
‘Damn it.’
If at least Jaogae was here, he would have understood why he couldn’t move and defended him!
As it happened, that porridge got stuck on that volcano and not anywhere else. He is probably seeing with his own eyes all that the volcano is accomplishing among those advancing to Kwaedonanma by now.
“Ugh…”
My heart feels like it’s on fire.
It felt as if everything that happened on the Yangtze River was arranged to trap Shaolin.
“Then at least go back.”
At that moment, a sarcastic voice suddenly flew in.
It was an incredibly cold voice that I could not believe was coming from the head of the advisory room.
The court reflexively turned its head to see Hyebang looking at him with a sneer.
“If you’re just going to watch and not step forward, is there any reason to guard this place?”
“…Hye-bang.”
“Or do you want me to just watch and learn from here? The heroic performance of that volcano? Or the sight of Hyeyeon in black military uniform saving Namgoong? Are you saying that in order to do what you want, you have to wear the black robe of Hwasan instead of the yellow robe of Shaolin?”
“Can’t you shut up, you bastard!”
The legal world, which had not heard anything, shouted.
But his voice was also slightly weak. He seemed to know that no matter how sternly he questioned his guilt, there was no way his words would work.
Hyebang looked at the court and the legal world and opened his mouth.
“There’s something an elder said to me a while ago.”
His eyes were colder than ever.
“Pursuing your own lawlessness is not the only way. If you are a true Buddhist, you must know how to lead poor sentient beings to Buddhism, even if it means burning your own body to death. “It is hypocrisy and a sin to just watch their suffering from afar.”
For a moment, the legal world fell silent.
“Who is committing a sin now?”
“This guy…”
“Yes.”
Hyebang said expressionlessly.
“The crime of defaming the reputation of a recluse will never be light. “I will go to the retreat center and reflect on myself.”
After saying those words, he turned around without any hesitation. As if I couldn’t bear to watch this anymore.
“This guy! “Can’t you stop right now?”
But Hyebang did not stop walking. On the contrary, some Shaolin monks who were looking at Hye-bang caught a glimpse of the dharma world with a contemptuous gaze and turned to follow him.
Dozens of Shaolin monks, including Hye-bang, walked away from the Yangtze River without even looking back.
“I…”
Beopgye, greatly embarrassed, bit his lip tightly as he watched the scene.
Even if you don’t agree with the head of the room, how can something like this happen? Is it possible for a Shaolin scholar to disobey the leader’s orders and act as he pleases?
As the head of Shaolin’s precepts, it was something he could never ignore.
But….
Wood clatter.
Even though he clenched his fists, he was ultimately unable to catch those who were leaving. I just closed my eyes tightly.
What on earth can I say?
They are too pure and clean to teach us how to protect ourselves in this cold river. Can’t we just tell them to learn how to roll their bodies in muddy water?
He could understand both the court and them. That’s why I have no choice but to just keep my mouth shut.
“Bangjang.”
At that time, Jong-ri-hyung opened his mouth in a cold voice.
“Are you really going to just watch like this?”
“if!”
At that moment, a loud sound like a seizure erupted from the mouth of the court. It was an incredibly nervous voice that came from his mouth.
“If you think so, shouldn’t the community step forward? “Gong can’t even make decisions on his own without using Shaolin as a shield?”
Zhongli-hyung bit his lips.
He stared at the court with a mixture of humiliation and anger and slowly nodded.
“…I understand the room manager’s meaning.”
Then he turned around and walked away from the court.
Wow.
The court’s shoulders were shaking as he clenched his fists until they bled.
‘Jang Il-so and… Hwasan Swordsman Association!’
He glared deathly at Maehwado Island and the boat floating leisurely on the river beyond.
‘I will never forget this humiliation.’
“Hmm.”
Jang Il-so, who was looking across the river from a large flower boat, laughed quietly.
“Don’t you think the manager is very angry?”
Hu Jiaming responded with a blatant sneer on his face.
“Well, you won’t be able to do anything. Anyone who stops once is bound to find a reason somehow. “You don’t even know you are fighting with yourself.”
“You are right. But…”
Jang Il-so rubbed his chin with a subtle expression.
“It’s a shame. If you’ve touched this much, it’s worth jumping into evil. “The timid old raccoon is overly cautious.”
“A little more provocation?”
“Leave it alone. “There’s no need to tell the reality to a fool who doesn’t even know that his caution is actually strangling him.”
Jang Il-so sneered and looked across the river.
People who are overconfident in their own intelligence do not know how to admit that they are wrong. Rather, he just thinks that the whole world doesn’t know that he is right. It is several times easier to deal with people like that than with stupid people.
The failure to take a step from that place will now hold Shaolin back for a long time. With that alone, it can be said that the purpose of the work on the Yangtze River was exceedingly achieved.
“Then what’s left now is…”
Jang Il-so’s gaze slowly shifted to Maehwa Island.
It was that moment.
Paaaaaa!
A black line rose from a ship that had escaped Surochae’s control and was advancing toward Maehwa Island. He flew towards Maehwa Island like a black meteor and landed as if stuck on the land of Maehwa Island.
At that moment, a laugh burst out of Jang Il-so’s mouth. To jump over a distance of over 20 pages with a single jump
…
He stared at the person who had reached Plum Island with a wide smile.
This is the image of Cheongmyeong, holding his sword backwards and running in a straight line toward the front line of the battlefield.
“Now it’s the climax.”
Jang Il-so rolled his oily eyes and slowly licked his red lips with his tongue.
It looked like a poisonous snake with delicious food in front of it.
