Chapter 260 – 261. Sensing Crisis.
In the carriage
“Do you know that? The beginning of the Tao is the end. It is not an exaggeration to say that it began with Odumido. Do you know what Odumido is? It is a Dopa made in Mt. Cheongseong after polishing the sword and arranging the sutras in Mt.
The fortune-teller looked at Seon-woo and began talking nonstop.
Seonwoo was responding with a rough nod to the words of such a lucky person.
“During the Three Kingdoms period, the elder, the grandson of the angel Jang…”
When Seonwoo reacted, Unjeokja opened his mouth even more excitedly.
‘Damn it’
Seonwoo sighed inwardly.
It was because he did not know that the endless chatter of the lucky man would end.
Soon after, he began to feel remorse.
After all, he created this situation because he was himself.
Originally, he was the one who rode the wagon alone.
At first he was delighted with the idea that he didn’t have to notice, but that thought didn’t last long.
It was because the boredom grew with each passing day.
At first, he continued his martial arts training through meditation, but after a month or so, moths ached all over his body.
After that, he only waited for lunch and dinner.
It was the only time I could have a conversation with people.
However, that only time also completely disappeared as it entered the North Sea.
It was almost a luxury to settle down and have lunch in the North Sea, where the snow wind was so strong and the weather was constantly changing.
Because of this, unlike before, it has become a daily routine to eat dry food for lunch.
And that daily life gave Sunwoo unbearable boredom.
At least he was able to hold on to some extent because of the coachman who was the only conversation partner, but even he had reached the point where he had nothing to say.
So, Sunwoo came up with a trick.
He was bringing others into his carriage.
Although he had the downside of having to keep a close eye on him, boredom and boredom outweighed that shortcoming.
And it was Unjeokja and Seolhyang who invited them.
It was because I thought that two people who talk a lot would not be bored.
Upon hearing Sunwoo’s proposal, the two readily accepted his offer.
And Seonwoo got to taste hell.
It was because as soon as they entered the wagon, the lucky man’s tremendous chatter began.
The lucky man talked a lot.
That’s huge too.
Seonwu and Seolhyang had to listen to the Taoist ideology without rest.
Not only that, but everything from the source of Cheongseong to the anecdotes of one hundred and one great men who made Cheongseong shine.
Seonwoo felt his eyes wide open and his mind was confused.
There is nothing more distasteful to hear about than the history of a munpa of someone you are not interested in.
I felt my mind disappear beyond me.
Seonwoo slowly turned his gaze to Seolhyang.
She, too, was just listening with her eyes wide open, as if she was the same as herself.
Seonwoo began to feel apologetic for some reason.
I came to play with a light heart How dumbfounded it is to hear the history of Cheongseong.
Sunwoo lowered her head slightly and expressed her apology to her.
Of course, it doesn’t seem to have been properly perceived by her out of her mind, but her words.
“Oh and speaking of it. In the hands of the 12th generation of Cheongseong, there was a senior named Kwang Myeong-ja…”
Whether or not he knew the feelings of Sunwoo and Seolhyang, Unjeokja just recited the history of Cheongseong.
Seonwoo saw that and made a promise.
I just said that from now on, let’s go while meditating quietly.
How long has it been like that
“Yes?!”
Suddenly, Seolhyang pricked up her ears and spat out a question.
“Wait.”
Then she turned her head to look at the lucky deficit and asked for forgiveness.
With her understanding, the fortune teller stopped what he was saying.
When the lucky enemy stopped her, she quietly closed her eyes.
As she closed her eyes, she began to hear the countless sounds of everything around her.
All kinds of sounds could be heard: the rolling of wheels, the blowing of snow, the running of snow hares, and the sound of conversations in the carriage.
She further expanded her senses.
Then she heard a man’s voice coming from quite a distance.
[Nice to meet. My name is Pi Sang-deuk, the owner of the North Wind Belt.]
“Physangbak!”
And when Seolhyang heard the sound, he shouted loudly.
“What!? Pisangdeuk!?”
After hearing her words, the fortune teller was surprised and asked back.
Why is the name of a rare murderer who shook the world in the past suddenly popping up?
“Physangbenefit!?”
Seonwoo also asked back in surprise.
If it was superficial, Seonwoo was not a stranger either.
In the first place, he was a man whose memories were completely assimilated with Jangsam.
He was able to penetrate at least some of Murimsa.
Moreover, Pi Sang-deuk was the one who pierced Cheonmu-maeng’s desire to become a cheonra in the past.
There was no way that Jangsam, who belonged to the Cheonmu Maeng, did not know.
“Yes, I heard that Bukpungdae Daeju Pisangdeuk.”
Seolhyang told what she heard in response to their question.
“What do you think the situation is?”
“It’s like a standoff situation.”
Seolhyang continued with a serious expression.
[Ah… I can’t do that either.]
[Haa… Seeing those straight eyes, don’t you want to kill me?]
“I’m in trouble! I think we’re raiding!”
Overhearing Pi Sang-deuk’s words, she was startled and continued her words.
“What!”
After hearing her words, the lucky man grabbed the sword next to him.
It looked like it was about to jump out at any moment.
“Wait.”
Seonwoo looked at the lucky man and then continued talking.
“Stop.”
“I’m in a hurry right now!”
“Where are you trying to go?”
Seonwoo looked at the lucky man and continued.
“No.”
“What?!”
After hearing Seonwoo’s words, the fortune teller looked at him with a questioning expression.
How do you dry yourself?
“Our purpose now is to find the missing disciples. It’s not about saving people you don’t even know.”
Seonwoo looked at the fortune teller with a cold voice and continued.
“But the author is a heinous murderer!”
“Even so, he is someone who has nothing to do with our purpose.”
“No…How can you put up with injustice as a political faction that worships Hyeop!”
“Because it’s a political faction, what’s important is justification. Right now, we have no reason to go to kill Pisangdeuk.”
“Why!”
The fortune teller asked him as if he did not understand.
“First, we don’t know who the raid was conducted by. Whether it’s a good citizen or some kind of magician. Second, we don’t know how much power the opponent has. We don’t want to waste power unnecessarily in that situation. “
Seonwoo looked at the fortune teller and continued.
“But hyeop!!”
“Lucky man, wake up. Now, it took us two months to enter the North Sea. If we waste the power of the search party here, it would be a serious loss. Pursuing cooperation is important, but you should also think about the safety of the students.”
Sunwoo spoke in a serious tone.
What he said was true.
If power was wasted here, it was obvious that the search would be disrupted by the amount of power wasted, and it would be inconvenient to send search personnel to the North Sea again.
“…”
After hearing Seonwoo’s words, the fortune teller couldn’t say anything.
Because I thought there was nothing wrong with what he said.
Their purpose was not to subjugate Pisangdeuk.
However, power cannot be wasted here.
Especially if you don’t even know who Pi Sang-deuk is fighting.
Soon, the lucky deficit lowered his head.
It was because Sunwoo’s words made sense.
`Whoo`
Sunwoo let out a sigh of relief when he saw such a lucky man.
It was because he was worried that he might not understand and jump out.
Fortunately, he seemed to understand his point.
“What if…They’re innocent?”
The fortune teller asked Seonwoo in a trembling tone.
“It can’t be helped. It’s a problem that they have to deal with completely.”
Sunwoo spoke in a calm tone.
It was a remark that didn’t feel the slightest emotion, but Seonwoo didn’t care.
It was disgusting to be dragged around while talking about cooperation or a cause.
Who are you helping when it’s hard to take care of your own person?
It wasn’t without compassion, but he had no intention of running dozens of miles to rescue someone he didn’t know.
How can you get involved in someone else’s fight?
Without any justification.
“Hey, Jang So-hyeop”
Then Seolhyang’s voice came to Seonwoo.
“Tell me.”
“Listening closely, it sounds like an attack on the upstream…”
“I can’t help it, though. It’s something they have to fully bear.”
In response to her words, Seonwoo spoke firmly.
His goal is to find the missing disciple safely and return to the Tang family to live happily ever after.
He had no intention of relaxing while playing a knights game.
“Sohyeop, I think I should go too.”
Seolhyang listened to Seonwoo’s words and cautiously continued.
“I didn’t tell you, there’s no reason for us to go there.”
“There is a cause.”
At Seonwoo’s words, Seolhyang said with her eyes shining.
“What justification do you mean!?”
Sunwoo asked her as if she didn’t know.
“First of all, the direction our wagon is heading and the direction the battle is taking place are the same.
She looked at Seonwoo with her eyes and continued her words.
Second, in order to reduce power loss, we must seek cooperation with the warriors at the top. When you can’t even guess how many enemies there are, it’s better to attract even one person as an ally.
After catching her breath, she spoke again.
“There is a huge bounty on the head of the third person. Because Son Moo-chang, one of the five richest men in the Central Plains, bet half of his fortune. If we cover it, we will be able to minimize the losses caused by the North Sea passage.”
She looked at Seonwoo with eyes full of her determination and continued her words.
“I can’t ignore the assumption that the raid on the fourth missing disciples was a superficial gain. Having been declared a Murim official and fleeing to the North Sea, he must have a grudge against the Murim people in the central plains. I’d like to meet you.”
“…”
Hearing her words, Seon-wu fell into trouble.
Her words were surprisingly persuasive.
At first, like a lucky man, he knew how to negotiate and listened with a filter.
However, from her mouth, things that stimulated emotions such as sympathy and consultation were all excluded.
So, it will be more persuasive.
“Good.”
Sunwoo, who had been thinking deeply, opened his mouth.
“Then I’ll go right away!”
When his permission was granted, the fortune teller turned around as if he would jump out at any moment.
“No.”
Seonwoo dissuaded such a lucky person.
“Why!”
At his dissuade, the fortune teller became angry and asked again.
When you say it’s good, when do you mean stop it now?
“They will go and find me alone.”
Seonwoo looked at them and spoke firmly.
“It’s dangerous!”
Seolhyang, who heard Seonwoo’s words, shouted as if it were nonsense.
How can you do something dangerous?
“It’s okay. Don’t you know my strength?”
Concerned about her, Seonwoo calmly continued to speak.
“No matter how alone…”
She blurted out her last words and said to Sunwoo.
“In the first place, if I’m in danger, even if I go with you, it won’t help much.”
“…”
“…”
After hearing Sunwoo’s words, Unjeokja and Seolhyang couldn’t say anything.
Because it was true.
He was a good man who could subdue even the unlucky man who reached the entrance of Hwagyeong in just one move.
If such good friends are dangerous, they won’t even be of any help.
Jump
“Then I will go.”
Seonwoo smiled lightly at their silence, opened the door, and flew outside.
Wheeeeeing
A cold snowy wind greeted him.
‘It’s cold.’
Seonwoo, who was hit by the cold snowstorm, shivered all over.
It was because I felt a sharp chill.
‘Did it say northeast?’
Seonwu gathered his history by operating the Yin-Yang Harmony New Technique.
Before long, a huge bet swirled around him and soon seeped into his body.
The Yin-Yang Harmonizer that permeated his body greatly activated Seon-woo’s physical abilities.
It didn’t end there.
Seonwoo began to accelerate his blood flow.
His blood circulated faster and faster, further boosting his physical abilities.
Soon, Seonwoo’s entire body began to turn red.
It made the body in the best condition.
“Huh woo woo”
Seonwoo let out a breath and sent all of his history to Yongcheonhyeol.
Sunwoo bent his upper body like a bow.
Soon, Seon-woo exploded the history that had flowed into Yongcheon-hyeol at the same time as Park Cham.
Bang
Then, a huge roar rang out, and the place where Seonwu was standing was surrounded by dust.
Sunwoo bounced his upper body forward, which had been curved like a bow, and sent the new model straight.
At that moment, Seonwoo’s new model disappeared in front of him, leaving behind only a glass shape.
The legendary state of divine law, Lee Hyeong-hwan-wi, was demonstrated.
Seonwoo’s new model disappeared in an instant.
And Unjakjakja and Seolhyang, who watched it, opened their mouths.
Although he knew that he was strong, it was because he never imagined that he would reach the level of Lee Hyeong-hwan-wi.
They just confirmed Seonwoo’s existence by listening to the continuous explosion.
