Chapter 577 - What about men?

 

 

 

 

 

 

At Kwak Sang-moon’s words, ‘chaos may be lower than yawning’, Lee Hyu tilted his head.

 

In theory, of course, it could be.

 

However, is it possible that ‘chaos’, which is passed down as a legend beyond the extreme, is lower than ‘yawn’?

 

“The death penalty, that seems like a different matter. The rotation of the Five Elements and the Taegeuk is the principle of harmony between heaven and earth, but isn’t there a saying that the levels of spirit energy are so harmonious?”

 

“There is no such thing as not being in harmony. Even if it is a spiritual energy, isn’t the essence of the Five Elements, Yin and Yang, and Taegeuk after all?”

 

"but… … .”

 

“Well, don’t get too excited. Because I don't believe it either. When I first heard about it from Master, I was furious like you.”

 

When he said he didn't believe it, Lee Hyu didn't dig any further.

 

Don't you know if you have a different opinion?

 

Arguments were unnecessary as long as they knew they were of the same mind.

 

It was the masters of Soyojong who finished the meal first.

 

Since they moved with the caravan, they left the restaurant with the caravan people.

 

The Yeonjeokha group enjoyed a leisurely meal.

 

This is because there is still a lot of time until the start date of ‘Visaengwahae’, so there is no reason to rush.

 

In particular, even after the meal of the yeonjeok-UI, it didn't move for a long time.

 

The owner, who had seen the couple, brought.

 

“This is only from the ‘corridor of death’ and is called ‘heavenly rain’. I was going to treat the long-awaited guests, but the others are in a hurry?”

 

When the owner was puzzled, Gong Ji-yu answered with a smile.

 

"It's because they're from the top."

 

"ah! It was a village where there were very few outsiders, so I thought everyone was part of the group.”

 

“We crossed the ‘corridor of death’ together, but we are not together.”

 

Then the owner asked with a surprised face.

 

“Have you crossed the ‘corridor of death’?”

 

"yes."

 

Gong Ji-yu replied with a shrugged face.

 

After crossing the 'corridor of death', he realized how dangerous it was.

 

It would be the pride of a lifetime, next to 'Biseunggwahae'.

 

Just in time, outside the window, people from the upper ranks passed in an orderly fashion.

 

An exclamation flowed from the owner's mouth as he confirmed the direction of the upper deck.

 

“Hey! Really? It's been 20 years since I've been doing business here, but it's the first time the guild has crossed the 'corridor of death'. How did you get over there?”

 

Gong Ji-yu added a simple explanation for him who was curious.

 

“Six masters of the small class came to protect the guild.”

 

"ah! In the required species... … . no wonder. ha! It would have been nice if there were a little less beasts in the 'corridor of death'. I'm sorry, I'm sorry.”

 

“Are there any foreigners going this way?”

 

“Not very much. People who seem to be masters of the sect rarely go there.”

 

“Are you a master of the sect?”

 

Gong Ji-yu asked as if to confirm, and the owner answered with an awkward smile.

 

“I think it is. Unless you are a master of the sect, you cannot pass through the ‘corridor of death’.”

 

"aha."

 

Gongji Yu nodded his head.

 

It was true that it was impossible to do this unless you were a master of the clan.

 

When all three corps had passed, Yeonjeokha rose from his seat.

 

 

 

Yeonjeokha, who had been walking so far that he could barely see the rear of the upper deck, looked back at Jeongdeok.

 

“Hyung Jung.”

 

"yes?"

 

“Do you know where this is?”

 

“Yes, this is Wonyang-hyeon.”

 

“Can you go to the fire umbrella now?”

 

“I heard that if you go a little further, it is Baekya Village. It is the place where the roads that diverged from Yangdo to the south and north meet. From there, you can find it because it is the way you have been.”

 

“Should I follow the upper ranks to the White Night Village?”

 

“Not necessarily, but wouldn’t it be better to be sure?”

 

Seeing Jeong Deok-haeng’s confident face, Yeon Jeok-ha clicked his tongue and said, ‘Tsk tsk!’

 

“No, the street is so dark, what are you going to do?”

 

"sorry."

 

“It was my fault for expecting it.”

 

“Because this is my first time here… … .”

 

Jeong Deok-haeng made an excuse with the sound of crawling.

 

It was the first time I had been on this road, and it was unfair to be criticized for saying, “The eyes on the road are dark,” but I couldn’t help it.

 

Being weak was a sin.

 

Fortunately, around noon, a signpost for White Night Village appeared on the public road.

 

 

 

[Osipri in Baekya Village]

 

 

 

“I heard that it is 50 li (about 20 kilometers) to Baekya Village?”

 

"yes. From then on, I remember.”

 

“How many miles is it from Baekyachon to Bull Usan?”

 

“I understand that it is a little less than a thousand li (about 400 kilometers).”

 

“It’s going to make you cry.”

 

Yeonjeokha frowned.

 

It was a distance that would take at least ten full days for a thousand li.

 

“There is a slightly easier way to go.”

 

"What?"

 

“You can take a carriage from Wonyang-hyeon to Simu-hyeon. Then it will take about five days.”

 

“Wagons are nice too, but I can’t because I have too much time left.”

 

“Ah, yes. It does.”

 

Jeong Deok-haeng forced a smile.

 

To be honest, I thought Yeonjeokha wouldn't accept it.

 

Even now, it is more than 15 days earlier than others, but there was no reason to shorten it further here.

White Night Village.

 

 

 

around dusk.

 

Yeon Jeok-ha and his party arrived at Baekya Village.

 

It was a uniquely shaped village with wooden fences between huge stone pillars.

 

Yeonjeokha muttered as he walked to the door installed between the stone pillars.

 

“It looks like the town is a bit bigger. Seeing that the pillars were made of stone pillars.”

 

"Iknow, right. It must be a rich town. Did you put as much effort into it as the prefecture?”

 

At Gong Ji-yu's words, Jeong Deok-haeng said something.

 

“Samae, the size of the village is large, but it’s because there is a quarry nearby.”

 

"ah! There is a quarry nearby.”

 

Gongjiyu nodded his head.

 

Somehow, I wondered why Seokju, which is not often used even in the prefecture, was in a place like this.

 

After entering through the stone pillars, it was indeed larger than the villages I had seen so far.

 

The road through the village seemed twice as good as the other places.

 

The downtown area in the middle of the village was too large and splendid to be called a village.

 

The village was so large that it was difficult to find where even the three guilds had gone.

 

A sigh of relief escaped from his lips.

 

“Phew! I'm glad the town is big. I was also preparing for homelessness.”

 

Then Gong Ji-yu laughed bashfully.

 

"why? Do you think there will be no seats at the inn?”

 

“More than three hundred people came. Do you think it can accommodate that many people?”

 

“Yes, it seems.”

 

Jeong Deok-haeng, who was listening from behind, interrupted by saying that he had been to the village he had been to.

 

“Yeon Daehyeop. This is because it is a place that connects Sumi and Chaoyang. You can think of it as a place similar to the transfer of Sumiseong.”

 

"I know, I know. I don't even know that much.”

 

At Yeon Jeok-ha's criticism, Jeong Deok-haeng quietly stepped back.

 

He wanted to be a little closer, so he came forward, but judging from the way he talked, it still feels distant.

 

It was not difficult for him to find a room in an inn.

 

It is also true that Baekyachon was originally a village that developed to suit the people who go to Sumi and Joyangseong.

 

Whether the three guilds came through the ‘corridor of death’ or through the southern road, it had nothing to do with White Night Village. No matter which way we came from, it was the same that we met at Baekya Village.

 

 

 

***

 

 

 

Five days have passed since the three guilds left Baekya Village.

 

In the meantime, Wonyo entered the empty seat of Lee Hyu and faithfully served Kwak Sang-mun.

 

If Lee Hyu was Kwak Sang-moon's friend, Won-yo acted as an errand boy.

 

not because someone made it

 

Wonyo volunteered to help Kwak Sang-mun.

 

Wonyo, who was not in any relationship, did what would normally be done in a teacher-teacher relationship.

 

Other masters of Yeonheo whispered about it behind their backs, but Wonyao didn't care.

 

What is strange is Kwak Sang-moon's attitude.

 

He did not distance himself from Won Yao, but was closer to him than other masters of Yeonheo.

 

 

 

around noon.

 

Kwak Sang-moon, who was walking the highway in the lead, asked Won-yo.

 

“Are they still following?”

 

“Yes, it is about a hundred feet (about 300 meters) from the rear.”

 

"hmm! Since Baek San-hyeon is right in front of you, we will break up soon.”

 

“I will.”

 

Wonyo spoke in a calm tone, but inside he was full of anticipation.

 

In Baeksan-hyeon, the Sangdan and them were about to separate.

 

The Merchant will go right away because they have to deliver goods to Bull Usan, but they are different.

 

There are still 20 days left until 'Biseungwahae' begins.

 

It is about five days from Baishan County to Fuwu Mountain.

 

If you go now, you will have to wait for 15 days until ‘Biseungwahae’.

 

So it was clear that he would be spending time in Simu-hyeon like the other contestants.

 

Kwak Sang-moon muttered to himself.

 

“One of them will surely become a disciple of Jong Soyo… … .”

 

For a moment, Wonyo asked with a surprised face.

 

“Has there ever been a person with such outstanding aura?”

 

Chudoyeongbeop, which recognizes spiritual energy, can be learned only after going up to Wonyoung.

 

Therefore, as Wonyo, the outcome could not be predicted.

 

“Since the woman has the aura of the five elements, she will be my disciple.”

 

“How about a man?”

 

Wonyo glanced at Kwak Sangmoon.

 

He had to consider that too, since he would have to face him for a long time if he came into the Soyojong.

 

“He had an aura that couldn’t even yawn.”

 

Wonyo's face brightened.

 

When he was told that he could not become a Soyojong disciple, his heart felt lighter.

 

“But how could he handle the magic of the dagger?”

 

“Because it matches the method he learned.”

 

“Are you saying that if you don’t know the Simbeop, you’re useless?”

 

“Probably so.”

 

“… … .”

 

Won Yao had many questions, but he didn't ask more.

 

He didn't want to find out that he was eyeing the man's dagger.

 

 

 

***

 

 

 

Baek San-hyeon.

 

 

 

The three corps stopped by Baeksan County and left immediately.

 

Unlike the hurriedly leaving the upper ranks, Yeon Jeok-ha and his party found a guesthouse in Baeksan-hyeon and sat down.

 

 

 

that afternoon.

 

After finishing their meal early, they looked back at Baeksan-hyeon, a rival enemy.

 

Things I couldn't see when I was with the top came into my eyes.

 

The scenery of the quiet street and the solicitation of merchants.

 

It reminds me of the old days when I see the street vendors roaming around like stray dogs and taking money from street vendors.

 

Where people live is all the same.

 

Even a government official extorting money from a street vendor resembled him, so he said everything.

 

Maybe it's because I rested all afternoon, but I don't know if I'm tired even though it's getting dark.

 

Like a dog, prowling every nook and cranny of Baeksan-hyeon, full of energy Then, when she got tired of everything, she turned to the inn.

 

A shop sign was visible in the distance.

 

Even though she was only staying for one day, she felt welcome as if she had returned to her hometown.

 

Someone called from behind him as he walked away.

 

“Little brother.”

 

Looking back, they were janitors who had been hanging around the street near the inn since early evening.

 

"why?"

 

A man in his early thirties asked in a calm tone.

 

“We’ve been going back and forth since before, is there anything in particular you’re looking for?”

 

“No?”

 

“Ah, nothing is missing. I think it's because of the long night. do you need a girl Trust Woo hyung and follow him. I will make it an unforgettable night for the rest of my life.”

 

Just then, an elderly man walked out of the darkness.

 

" Judging by the fishy smell emanating from their bodies, they must belong to the Black Spot (places that sell human flesh). go away."

 

Soyojong Gosu Wonyo.

 

The bastards glared at Wonyo, but when they saw the sword hanging from his waist, they secretly ran away
