Episode 338 The scariest walk in my life.
I watched the farm family at work.
First of all, he cleaned better than me.
The farming tools that had been brought as weapons were put down to one side. Instead, people repaired broken shops and houses using various tools taken from the houses they had left.
Some people put boards on the collapsed walls and nailed them, while others moved the bodies to an empty lot and burned them.
Looking at it this way, it occurred to me that the farmhouse was similar to the family farm led by Yeon Ja-seong.
It is not strange that Hao Wen resembles some of the Xu Sheng forces.
Anyway, the farmer did all of this better than me. This was probably because these people were originally workers who were engaged in a living, and I was a strong person who mainly fought and got into fights.
I soon learned why I had brought a bag of rice.
It seemed like the men belonging to the farming family went into each house and filled empty rice jars with rice.
After a while, I enjoyed the meal that Deng Liang had prepared, and then drank alcohol with the snacks that were in the guest cup.
After having a few drinks, I looked out at the street again…. The
farm troops, like the people who originally lived here, were staying in various places and continuing the restoration work.
There wasn’t really anything for me to do here.
Moon-joo runs to the place where the original incident occurred and fights.
This is because work is done by disciples.
There is no need to question which is difficult.
This is because both I and they risk our lives in everything we do.
After staring for a while, I suddenly remembered that these were farmers and not Haomen Island.
‘It’s a surprise. I knew it was a congratulatory message.’
After lunch, the farmers cooked rice with the rice they had brought, rested for a while, and then got up again.
They seemed like people who had to work until the sun went down. In this way, the farmers of the SeoSaeng faction were attached to this place, and they were preparing so that people who were here at any time could return to their daily lives without any problems.
Come to think of it, the Moh family and the farmer seemed to be friends.
Mohists supported Suseong with the intention of preventing a war of conquest, and after the inevitable war broke out, farmers appeared to enter and recover.
Because I was confirming this with my own eyes….
I added Mohist and then Farmer to the mental alliance.
It occurred to me that damage recovery would be faster if Mohist farmers formed an alliance.
While I was drinking, I had this thought.
‘I should call Yeon Ja-seong first.’
I thought that if I stayed here, the return of those who had to lead normal lives would be delayed. I rested until late afternoon, rejuvenated myself, and spent some time eating a fortune-telling breakfast, and then I spoke to the Four Major Villains.
“…Let us leave.”
The devil answered.
“Where?”
Since it was better to say it all at once, I spoke after calling Deungryang, the head of Cha Seongtae’s farm.
“Commissioner Cha.”
“yes.”
“Take about 30 days, and if nothing happens, send your congratulatory message here.”
“All right.”
“There is no need to work for money as soon as Yeon Ja-seong comes. Tell them to charge for the expenses incurred until they settle in, and tell them to hire people here to set up a branch of Chukmun. From then on, the workers hired by Chuk-Moon will also have to make a living, so they will have to get paid. It doesn’t matter if it takes a long time. So, ask Yeon Ja-seong to hire people from here to fill the gates, and you will know what I mean.”
“yes.”
I looked at the head of the farmhouse.
“I’m thinking of calling a construction craftsman from Haomun, so you can meet him later.”
“I understand.”
“Commissioner Cha is in charge of arranging meetings between various forces. There is no need to follow us around for the time being. While I’m taking care of work, I just keep practicing Baekjeon Ten Danggong. “It’s a burden for us because we don’t have the skills to kill a single ghost yet.”
“All right.”
I looked at the head of the farm and Deung Liang.
“Now, I will slowly move the location with these people, so please tell the Western forces.”
Deng Liang asked.
“Where are you going?”
I looked at the four great evildoers and then answered Deng Liang.
“We are heading to Manjaeng.”
“Um, everything?”
“Anyway, if I stay here, it will be more difficult for ordinary people to return, so it would be right for me to leave. As I head towards Manjae, I think people who have business with me will follow along. However, I hope that those who are not skilled, whether enemies or allies, do not come near Manjang.”
Teng Liang nodded.
“I understand what you mean. “I will deliver it.”
I looked at the head of the farmhouse.
“Hoeju.”
“Please speak.”
“The support from farmers is something to be thankful for, but it doesn’t have to come with all the obstacles. “I think it would be better to help this place with Hao Wen’s congratulatory message rather than me. What do you think?”
The head of the farmhouse was lost in thought for a moment.
“…hmm. I will do that. If a fight breaks out in Manjae, I will see if I can send someone more skilled than me. When do you plan to leave?”
I got up from the chair and looked at the Four Evils.
“let’s go.”
“already?”
The sword demon, the color demon, and the demon demon looked at me. It seemed like everyone’s butts got heavy when they told us to go right away.
I added words to the three people.
“I know where there is an elixir for all disorders. “There is an elixir that I couldn’t even bring.”
The three people stood up at the same time and adjusted their clothes.
“let’s go.”
“If you start with the main point, it will happen right away.”
I also said goodbye to Cha Seong-tae.
“…Say hello when you go to Ilyang County.”
Seongtae Cha answered while looking at me blankly.
“All right. “Please be careful with your senior Sword Demon, Mr. Mong Confucius.”
As I greeted them one by one, all the Four Major Villains turned around. The eldest brother said.
“It was good to see that Commander-in-Chief Cha seemed to have become stronger. “See you later.”
“yes.”
The demon also said.
“Commander Cha has been through a lot. “See you again.”
The demon said with a strange expression.
“Let’s go to the general hall and have a drink.” “At Maehwaru.”
Seongtae Cha nodded and then added.
“Everyone, please return safely and teach Yoran too…”
I glared at Cha Seong-tae without saying a word. Then Cha Seong-tae spoke informally to me again for the first time in a long time.
“…be careful.”
“Seongtae.”
“why.”
“Who is going to die? Don’t get in the mood. “Before I beat you up.”
Cha Seong-tae finally smiled.
I looked around and waved at three people.
“See you again.”
* * *
The Sword Demon asked me.
“What kind of elixir do you have?”
“There was a Woldanhwa under the Mansang.”
The devil responded loudly.
“what?”
“Shut up you’re making noise. I already ate it. That’s not important. I caught and ate a large fish near the Woldanhwa, and the cold energy I got from the Woldanhwa disappeared quickly. I wondered if it was a coincidence, but I don’t think it was. Just as there is medicine where there is poison, fish was also an elixir that could heal the internal injuries of extreme yin. “I guess it goes beyond the effect you saw and can be seen as helping Geukyang’s strength.”
The demon asked.
“Are you saying there is a lake under the bay?”
“huh.”
“It must be a very old lake. “There wouldn’t have been anyone approaching.”
“It may have been more than 10,000 years. “What kind of crazy person would go down there and catch and eat fish?”
The devil looked at me.
“you.”
“That is correct. “I am the man who broke ten thousand years of peace.”
As I was walking for a while, there were people following me.
I stopped for a moment and looked at a place some distance away. An old man with gray hair stopped and looked at us. Suddenly, as the wind blew and my white hair blew, I saw that there was a dent where one of my eyes should have been.
The color demon asked.
“How…to kill him?”
I looked at the white-haired old man standing still and said.
“done. let’s go.”
I just turned around and kept moving. Occasionally, Saekma would look back and explain the situation.
“Another skinny guy joined us. What are you taking out of your pocket? Is it memorization? Nope. Shoot into the air.”
Soon, the sound of wind was heard and something surged and exploded in the air.
The demon asked in a calm tone.
“There are two of us and there are four of us. Wouldn’t it be better to play now?”
I stopped and checked again to see the two people chasing me from behind. The white-haired old man and the skinny old man stopped and looked at us.
I picked up a rock from the floor and threw it at the white-haired old man. When the white-haired old man waved his hand, the stone crumbled in the air and disappeared like dust.
“….”
I couldn’t help but sigh.
I spoke to the white-haired old man.
“…I’m planning to go and fight with the old man, but can you go quietly?”
When the white-haired old man nodded, the skinny old man answered.
“Do it that way.”
“good. let’s go.”
I don’t know how much I can believe in the words of the ghosts, but for now, I set out with the four major evildoers again. Behind, the number of ghosts was increasing. The horseman who had been reporting several times while looking at those following him from behind closed his mouth as if he was tired.
After a while, I asked the horseman.
“Who is the person in black?”
“I can’t see it yet.”
“What about the young one?”
“does not exist. Is this right? “The number has increased.”
I nodded.
“Since this is what I suggested, I must keep my word. Is this right. “The enemy won’t come anyway.”
At this time, three men in black got down in front of us and blocked the road. After stopping for a moment, a thin old man spoke from behind.
“Get out of the way. “I will fight at all costs.”
I spoke to the three black men.
“That’s right. “Get out of the way.”
Three people stepped to the left and right and glared at us as we passed by. I thought it would pass safely, but one of them opened its mouth.
“…No. 13 has been alive for a long time.”
As the Sword Demon snorted and laughed, the man in black who called his eldest brother Thirteen asked from behind.
“Do you remember who I am?”
The Sword Demon answered while walking.
“I think I heard the voice, but I forgot a lot. “Please at least show your face and speak.”
“Those apostates who died while competing with you will be the most bitter.”
The Sword Demon nodded.
“If you die, you should feel sorry for cancer.”
We let out a low laugh at what our eldest brother said.
“That’s true.”
As I was walking down the road again, I heard the voice of a thin old man.
“…Why are you spouting such nonsense? “Do you want to die?”
“sorry.”
It seemed like he was longing for a man in black who was a mix of a swordsman and a horse. The old man continued.
“I tried at least the seat of the chair in number 13. What are you? huh? What are you? “What issue was this guy?”
Someone answered the old man’s words.
“The twenty-seventh issue that survived the demon attack of the old Yamagong (old night magician).”
“Was there even a coin demon in Kuyama-gong? “It is a martial arts skill that can be overcome as long as you support your internal strength.”
At this time, a tone mixed with the sound of metal flowed out.
“noisy.”
“….”
In an instant, the ghosts following from behind fell silent. I was curious whose voice it was, but I just assumed it was the tone of a white-haired old man. It was a ghost who somehow looked like someone who had died once but came back to life. The fact that he was missing an eye and his neck was completely damaged looked like the aftermath of an internal injury or a horse attack. Anyway, so far, the white-haired old man seemed like the best among the ghosts.
I mostly walked on roads that didn’t seem to be deserted. Since Sima Ma and the other disciples are following, I guess I am also walking along the Sima Ma and external path.
The demon said what he had been thinking.
“…Are you mixed among the people in black?”
“It seem to be like that. “I guess everyone originally disguised themselves as people in black and prepared for the attack.”
The guys following us also chatted casually.
“Wouldn’t it be better to just kill them all here? Do I have to go all the way?”
When one of them expressed a dissatisfied opinion, some ghosts continued to laugh, and then an old man answered.
“okay? “Let’s kill everyone here?”
“yes.”
“Go and kill him. good. “We’ll take a look.”
“Oh, I’m sorry.”
“What are you sorry for? You must keep your words. Hao Wenju, stop for a moment.”
After we stopped, we all turned around and a thin old man pointed to a man in black and said.
“This guy suddenly wants to kill you all here. “I need to see your skills, so would you consider it entertainment and accept it?”
I answered simply.
“That’s right. Send it.”
“….”
The thin old man said while looking at the man in black.
“Go and try it. It’s a life or death decision you want. If you don’t go, you will die by our hands. Just wait until the count of three. one.”
Ghosts laughed here and there at the old man’s words.
“two.”
The man in black stepped forward.
“…I will challenge you.”
A man in black escaped from the group and stepped forward. As soon as I saw the white-haired old man’s murderous look in his eyes, I warned the black-clothed man.
“Hey, be careful…”
Before I could finish saying “be careful,” the white-haired old man waved his hand as if he had turned a rock into dust.
Phew!
Then, the entire upper body of the man in black who was approaching us a few steps was torn off, and only half of his torso fell forward. The ghosts burst into laughter and made fun of the dead man.
“What a pathetic bastard.”
“There won’t be anyone making noise anymore, right?”
While the white-haired old man was glaring at us, the thin old man pointed forward again.
“let’s go! “With all disabilities.”
Still, I thought the skinny old man was a bit amused, so I snapped my fingers.
“Good. Let’s go. It is truly a thrill to go on a journey like this with ghosts. “It’s thrilling.”
I stood side by side with the four great evildoers and headed back to Manjang.
The color demon muttered.
“Hey, but no one is coming. I’m starting to feel a bit anxious. “I don’t even see a white-robed bastard.”
Someone behind the scenes answered the demon’s words.
“Ah, are you waiting for the white-robed student? An old man who was good at playing baduk was looking for a game of baduk, so you two met? Lord Hao Wen, we know that you have many reinforcements. “Don’t be so stupid.”
I stopped, turned around, and looked for the owner of the voice.
“Who are you just now?”
A middle-aged man wearing a blue jangsam answered.
“Let’s fly.”
I nodded and then answered in a serious tone.
“Senior, when did I act like a fool? “I said this just to expect reinforcements since we were out of power.”
“Oh, is that so?”
I nodded and held out my hand as if to guide everyone.
“let’s go. “The days will get darker.”
“Take the lead.”
I walked along the dark night with the Four Evils and the ghosts. It was a night that was scarier than ever because an attack could come from behind at any time.
Before I knew it, a chill ran down my spine.
“Wow, this is the first time I’ve had such a scary walk in my life.”
Because the ghosts and the four great evildoers were silent at the same time, my words just now became a whisper to myself.
The wind was getting cooler.
