Chapter 264 – Age of survival

 

 

 

 

 

 

Mu Yeong-sin Tu Baek-gyo turned his head to the side to avoid the gaze of Hwa-yong-dok-sim Namgung-yeon.

 

Namgoongyeon's soft voice reached his ears.

 

“There are few people who can get you out of prison. Especially if you can be that confident. The person who traded stolen goods must be the chief of the police force or the musketeer.”

 

“… … .”

 

Baek Kyo's shoulders drooped.

 

She cannot hide a single speck from this woman.

 

“Sojeo, can’t you just leave me alone?”

 

Maybe someone else doesn't know?

 

She couldn't tell Namgoongyeon the truth.

 

She had a bad relationship with the person who bought the stolen property, so it was clear that only she would be taken advantage of.

 

Namgungyeon did not press him for an answer.

 

As the head of the police force is a high priest of Shaolin Temple, there is no way he would buy Buddha's relics that way.

 

If so, the only person left is Jegal Seung-woon, the musketeer and the mysterious investigator.

 

If he chose to trade with the musketeers, it is understandable that he would reject himself to the end.

 

Sapa people fundamentally do not believe in Jeongpa people.

 

It must be because he is afraid that he will be taken advantage of and then kicked out.

 

But he doesn't know how terrifying the musketeer is.

 

A musketeer is a person who pushes his colleagues to death for the sake of the Zhuge family.

 

Should he just leave Baek Gyo, who witnessed the stolen goods transaction?

 

“The Musketeer… … .”

 

Just as Namgung-yeon was about to give a warning, ambassador Gong Ji from the police squad entered the prison.

 

"haha. Sojeo Namgung. How are you doing up to here? Have you come to find the law? His mouth is so heavy, it won't work the usual way.”

 

Namgung-yeon said to the ambassador Gongji.

 

"no. Green Forest’s general patrol came to ask if Baek Gyo stole something.”

 

“Okay, how are you? He says he didn't steal it, but he should be able to trust it.”

 

Ambassador Gongji looked at Namgoongyeon with expectant eyes.

 

It was hard to hear what her pragmatic reading ability was.

 

If she's as great as her rumors are, she's a huge help in the current situation.

 

“It seems clear that he is in trouble. Then I'm done.”

 

Namgung-yeon left the prison before Ambassador Gongji said anything.

 

 

 

***

 

 

 

Jung Joo-seong.

 

 

 

Hash Horse (11pm).

 

A drunken young man stumbled along the brothel street.

 

After a while, his face was revealed in the bright moonlight.

 

It was Namrin, who quickly returned to Jeongjuseong after a long walk in Chiliha Village.

 

“Cyberl! Money is zokuna! huh? what?"

 

When Namrin appeared in front of someone, he shook his head to come to his senses.

 

squeak.

 

With an eerie sound, Namrin's head flew off.

 

The masked assassin took a bundle of money from Namrin's arms and disappeared into the darkness.

 

 

 

***

 

 

 

Chili Hachon.

 

Cheonji League.

 

 

 

Early moning.

 

The leader, Mugeuk Merchant, stepped forward in front of about two hundred and eighty masters of the orthodox faction lined up in the front yard.

 

“The reason we gathered under the banner of the Heavenly League is to annihilate the famous religion. And today, we're finally out to do just that. I wish you good luck, comrades.”

 

Along with the horse, the Mugeuk Merchant wooed the masters of the Jeong Sa faction.

 

Unlike the previous launch ceremonies, slogans such as “killing the enemy” or “cheating up the spirit” did not appear.

 

It is out of consideration for the Sapa masters who accompany them.

 

Masters of Hyeonmudae, Jujakdae, and Indae passed the podium in front and walked to the main gate.

 

So the masters of the orthodox sect left for the battlefield.

 

 

 

The martial artist standing on the podium with his hard face turned his gaze to the side.

 

“Musketeer, what do you think will be the outcome of this fight?”

 

“Gyogu-hyeon (Hyeonmu-dae’s destination) is difficult to predict as there are many variables.”

 

“What about walnut mountain (the destination of the scapula and ligaments)?”

 

“Nothing is easy in this world. Aren’t babies desperate even when suckling?”

 

War and sucking a baby's breast are completely different things, so you can say it's a pun.

 

However, the Mugeuk Merchant saw through the bony expression in it.

 

'hmm! Being desperate... … .’

 

Jegal Seung-un's hostility towards the Namgung family is already known.

 

But why ligaments?

 

“Do you have a deep meaning in sending ligaments to Walnut Mountain?”

 

“It seems that Pacheonma-kun doesn’t have the heart to jump into this fight yet. However, if something happened to Black Narcissus, wouldn't it be a little more serious?”

 

'He's a scary person.'

 

The Mugeuk Merchant stuck his tongue out inwardly.

 

It was said that he was going to sacrifice Heuksu Seon, the daughter of Pacheon Demon Army and the most beautiful woman in Gangbuk.

 

Still, it's killing two birds with one stone, as it cuts down Sapa's power.

 

"ha! I wish you only good news.”

 

The merchant of martial arts, whose head was complicated, left Zhuge Seung-un behind and went back first.

 

Jegal Seung-un, who was left alone and lost in his thoughts, was approached by the head of the prison guard.

 

“Sir.”

 

“What is it?”

 

“Baegyo, who is imprisoned, asks to see the musketeer. What should I do?”

 

"me?"

 

"yes."

 

“What a big deal. Got it. Let's drop by.”

 

“I apologize for bothering you.”

 

The head of the guard bowed moderately and walked away.

 

Jegal Seung-un, who was looking at his back with a benevolent look, narrowed his eyes.

 

I have no idea why Baek Gyo wants to meet him.

 

'I bet he doesn't know Namrin, right?'

 

While Baek-gyo is a master at green forest, Nam-rin is a pickpocket in her back alley, so there is nothing to do with her.

 

She felt uncomfortable even though she thought the two couldn't get along.

 

It's like she's slowly sinking into a swamp.

 

'Well, I'll understand when I meet him.'

 

Jegal Seung-woon shook off his thoughts.

 

No matter how complicated it is, if you take care of one thing at a time, it will be over.

 

 

 

After a while, Jegal Seung-un visited the prison.

 

He defeated the head of the guard and all the guards and entered the prison alone.

 

Baegyo, who was sitting on the other side of the thick grate, smiled and raised his upper body.

 

Iron gruck. Iron gruck.

 

The sound of the chain on Baek Kyo's ankle scratching the floor echoed through the prison.

 

Jegal Seung-woon said to Baek-gyo, who came closer with a calm face.

 

“I heard you want to meet me.”

 

"haha. old musketeer. It is an honor to meet you.”

 

Baek Gyo smirked and looked up and down at Jegal Seung-un.

 

It is a relaxed attitude, as if looking at prey that has been caught.

 

"It's an honor to be proud of. We are in a situation where we are fighting together in the name of Heaven and Earth.”

 

“So, you have to let me go.”

 

“Shouldn’t you say something like that to those who arrested you?”

 

"It's not because the police officers don't believe me."

 

At Baek Gyo's rather harsh words, Jegal Seung-un frowned.

 

The deengjung of the guards must mean the great owner, Gongji Ambassador.

 

It's like a madou to say you're after the high priest of Shaolin Temple.

 

“The decisions regarding you are solely up to Ambassador Gong Ji… … .”

 

“Four days ago, I saw a kid. Turns out he and I were after the same thing. I have a knack for jumping over fences, but he's good with his hands. It's so nice that he comes and goes like his own home in the arms of Muheo Sanin.”

 

Baek Kyo's words were shortened.

 

In an instant, Jegal Seung-woon's face contorted.

 

'Could this madou see it?'

 

Baek Gyo, who was looking at Jegal Seung-woon's expression with a funny face, said triumphantly.

 

"That night. That kid met someone in the pine field behind Cheonjimaeng. musketeer, you know I am not the culprit, I am the only witness at the crime scene.”

 

“I didn't know who he was. I just met a person who wanted to sell the Beopbo.”

 

“Yes, this floor is like that. Knowing and being deceived, unknowingly being deceived. I understand everything, please release me. The reason I called you was to do it quietly.”

 

“As I said, this is the ambassador Gongji… … .”

 

“Huh. If you keep disappointing me, things could get bigger. Why can't a person who can read or write know such a simple logic? Are you trying to float me? This Mooyoungshintu?”

 

Baek-gyo, who caught the opponent's weakness, acted like a bad boy.

 

A shotgun ceremony flowed from the mouth of Jegal Seung-woon, who was hardened like a stone.

 

Anyway, he had to give up on himself here.

 

"ha! All right. Is that all you want?”

 

“Can it be? You know that it won't end like that. Do you know that there are only one or two people who want the Zhuge family to perish? Even just yesterday, Namgung-yeon came to visit. Whew! Fuck! Those eyes are real. Baekchimi is the best for women. No matter how pretty she is, she can't live with a woman like that. is not it?"

 

“What did you talk about with her?”

 

A light flashed in Jegal Seungwoon's eyes.

 

For a moment, Baek Gyo couldn't help but be startled.

 

He thought lightly of the musketeer's inaction, but he must have been mistaken.

 

He was never under the red wind chaebolism.

 

Baek Kyo secretly removed the strength from his eyes.

 

“I said I didn't steal it. After that, he kept talking to himself. Then when the crowd came, I just went back. That's all.”

 

The tone of speech, which seemed like a crazy bitch, was back to the beginning.

 

“Did you say anything else? About someone who seems to be the culprit, or someone who bought stolen property.”

 

For a moment, Baek Gyo couldn't help but be surprised once again.

 

It seems that people with good brains are definitely different.

 

How can someone who isn't there talk so softly as if he saw it from the side?

 

“Just as I was about to bring up such a story, a friend came and the story was over.”

 

Baek Kyo did not convey Namgung-yeon's words.

 

Instinctively, I thought it would be dangerous for some reason, so I adjusted the water level.

 

"All right. So what do you want?”

 

“A slip of 50,000 nyang. I’m thinking of washing my hands right now and living a quiet life somewhere.”

 

“I will. It's hard to get you out today. I have eyes that see I will release you within a few days. I'll meet you later and give you the money.”

 

Jegal Seung-un planned to take care of Baek Kyo's affairs while Nam Gung-yeon went to Mt. Hodu.

 

“Wednesday is a bit different, tomorrow. release me by tomorrow I can't spend more days in a gutter like this.”

 

"ha! Tomorrow is difficult. We need to produce proof that you are not the culprit, so the day after tomorrow.”

 

There was some truth in Jegal Seung-un's words, so Baek Kyo couldn't be stubborn.

 

"that let's love day after tomorrow. If you don't let me out that day, I'll tell the police what I saw. Keep your promise if you don't want to vomit the stolen goods.”

 

“Don’t worry, just rest for a few days and think about going out.”

 

"haha. Even if you don't, I intend to.”

 

"If you have nothing more to say, I'm done."

 

Jegal Seung-woon slowly turned around.

 

Standing with his back to his opponent, Jegal Seung-woon's face was distorted like an evil spirit.

 

He was right in the swamp again.

 

He seems to be submerged up to his knees already.

 

But he can't entangle himself just this much.

 

As you can see from the fall of the Namgung family, now is the era of survival, not righteousness and cooperation.

 

If it's for the sake of the Zhuge family, you can cut your intention and cut your sword.

 

Just as Zen monks kill Patriarchs and Buddhas and devote themselves to their efforts.

 

 

 

***

 

 

 

Jeong Ju-seong’s official residence.

 

 

 

Heuksu-seon, who had been walking with ligaments, looked ahead and asked.

 

“Machaeju. Why is the General Patrol not going with us and staying at Suzakudae?”

 

Ma Hyeong-do, the owner of Obong Sanchae, answered with a smile.

 

“That’s because the younger brother is a bee.”

 

“Are the flowers here?”

 

When Black Narcissus pointed at my face, the thieves of Obong Sanchae laughed and said, “Wow.”

 

"no? Did I say something wrong? Why are you laughing?”

 

Hwang Yo-myeong, a poisonous pericardium, intervened.

 

“Our general patrol is single-minded, so he has no interest in other flowers.”

 

“One-sided? Who are you talking about?”

 

"You mean it's so clear to our eyes, but we can't see it?"

 

“… … .”

 

Only then did Heuksu-seon realize that he was talking about Namgung-yeon.

 

“Ah, no.”

 

Of course, Namgungyeon is the most beautiful woman in Gangbuk. She is beautiful even from her own point of view.

 

Still, that was the image of her immature little brother following her caring older sister.
