Chapter 719 – 720. Go to Jinan.
A long time ago, there lived a killer called the Shanxi Blood Ghost in Shanxi Province.
It wouldn’t be strange to call him pure evil itself.
He committed many evil deeds and made Shanxi Province tremble with fear.
Murder, rape, assault, kidnapping, etc.
All the evil that can be done by force has been done.
A demon whose word lawlessness is appropriate
That was Sanseo Blood Ghost.
The government troops and soldiers of Shanxi Province formed a subjugation party to oppose him, but
It was useless.
It was because I couldn’t catch him who was as clever as the strong martial arts.
It was because he would run away without any regrets if he was pushed back by a power struggle.
A fight that cannot be won is one that has not even started.
That’s why the government army and the Murim people rotted their heads.
In the end, the punitive force was disbanded.
It was because he felt that he would never be able to catch him.
And starting from this incident, merchants and literati who were based in Shanseo started to move to other areas to avoid him.
It was because they felt threatened by the existence of a murderer that even hundreds of subjugation troops could not help.
And their migration began to make Shanxi Province increasingly desolate.
As the samurai migrated, the security naturally deteriorated, and outlaws appeared in rapid succession.
As security deteriorated, merchants withdrew their businesses and moved to other areas.
And when the merchants withdrew their business, money stopped flowing in Shanxi and eventually the commercial district collapsed.
The existence of an evil man called Shanxi Blood Demon caused the ruin of Shanxi Province.
In the end, the damage was returned to the common people who could not even migrate because they had nothing.
People lamented.
The fact that I can’t help the existence of the Shanseo Blood Ghost who ruined my beloved hometown and base.
Then one day
An incident occurred in which the head of the Shanxi Blood Ghost exploded.
It was because her head was blown off by a woman from out of town while trying to kidnap and rape a girl as usual..
People were shocked
It was because the demon, which had been unable to do anything about it for years, lost its life so easily.
Her people praised her for her.
It was because she was able to escape the pain that was like her eternity because of her.
And her girl, saved by her, came to yearn for her.
It was a dream come true
Like the woman who saved her life, she said that she should become a wonderful female co-op.
The girl made an effort to vomit her blood to change her fragile constitution.
She held her wooden sword with her fern-like hand, which had been flipping through books, and changed her vegetarian diet to a meat-based one.
She saved her pocket money to get even the tiniest scraps of elixir, and if she had even a little cheap elixir, she wouldn’t mind going to the provinces and selling her own products.
She started living a life for her dreams.
And exactly ten years later
She was able to join the organization she admired, the Women’s Cooperative Federation.
She was one step closer to the mark of her dreams.
The woman thought.
Sooner or later she will be able to make her dream come true, she says.
However, her dream was soon shattered.
By a very ugly man.
The man was a hero.
A great hero who saved countless people in the Great War of Jeongma in the past.
He was also the husband of Yeohyeop, whom she longed for.
But then he kidnapped himself.
After that, he locked himself in a secret basement and began to release his ugly desires without hesitation.
The blue-and-white jisin that she had cherished for twenty-three years was completely shattered, and she was treated more like a livestock than a woman.
She accepted his ugliness as it was.
[Let’s use it for one month.]
And when you’ve accepted all the ugliness
The man said
Let’s just use it for one more month.
“Aaaaa!!!”
Soon the woman raised her body and let out her screams.
“Ha…Ha…Ha…”
And she began to exhale heavily.
She then turned her head and started looking around her.
A neatly arranged room began to enter the field of vision.
The woman who saw it knew it.
The fact that she had her own dream.
“Huhhhhh…”
Soon the woman burst into tears.
Because she could hardly escape this nightmare.
After she was kidnapped and sexually abused by the man
She was living a life of nightmares every day.
It was too cruel for a young woman to handle.
“Why…Why…Why…To me…”
She started to weep incessantly.
She was just running for her dreams.
However, the steps for such a dream threw him into the pit of despair.
How could she not shed a tear
She was like that when she was crying endlessly.
Knock Knock Knock
Suddenly someone started knocking on the door.
“Sleep..Wait a minute!”
Smack smack
Hearing this, the woman hurriedly began to wipe the tears from her eyes.
It was because she felt that she couldn’t show herself like this to anyone.
“Come on in.”
Soon after wiping away all her tears, she stood up from her seat as she was and continued her words.
Kiki profit
Then the door slowly opened and a handsome middle-aged man appeared.
“Welcome… Eun-gong.”
Seeing this, the woman quickly bowed her head and greeted her.
“Were you crying again?”
The man who came in spoke in a calm tone.
“Ah… No.”
“Why don’t you tell a lie by erasing the tear marks from your eyes?”
The man continued talking with a playful expression on his face.
“…Just a little bit…Very little…Crying…”
The woman lowered her head and opened her mouth slowly.
She felt ashamed at the thought of revealing her true feelings.
“Crying is not a sin. Didn’t I tell you? When you’re sad, you have to cry to relieve the sadness a little bit.”
“…Does Eun-gong ever cry?”
“Hmm, unfortunately, I haven’t been sad once since I reached that stage. So there’s no need to cry.”
The man continued with a mischievous smile.
“What is it…That’s…”
The woman who heard the man’s words continued her words with a gentle smile.
It was because his humorous tone made me laugh.
“If I… Reach… The state… Will I be able to escape from this sadness?”
The woman asked him back as if she was curious.
“Perhaps so. You will come to realize that everything in the world is only a piece of nature after all.”
The man nodded her head in affirmation.
When he reached the stage, he was bound to become more indifferent to human affairs.
It was because through spiritual perfection, a more objective view of human affairs was created.
Perhaps, if she comes to that state, she will be freed from her sorrow.
Rather than being bound by those emotions, you will pursue a high level of martial arts through mental training.
“Is it better to practice martial arts right now?”
“Hmm… Personally, I don’t want to recommend it. It’s very sad when a human becomes a human. It takes a long time.”
The man spoke in a calm tone.
“Then…Do I have to live a painful life suffering from nightmares for the rest of my life?”
The woman asked, looking at the man with her teary eyes.
“No, there is a simpler and easier way than reaching the level.”
“An easy way?”
“You just have to take revenge. It is to take cruel revenge on the person who gave you nightmare-like terrible memories.”
“…He is the best in the world…”
The woman continued her words with a sad expression on her face.
The target of revenge was the first person in the world.
Getting revenge on him was probably more difficult than getting to the top.
“Not anymore.”
The man continued with a deep smile on his lips.
I don’t know about the past, but now he was no longer the best in the world.
It was because his arm was cut off by the sword god and he handed over the title of the best man in the world as it was.
It was no longer an insurmountable mountain that could not be crossed as before.
“Besides, an opportunity arose just in time.”
“A chance?”
The woman asked with a questioning expression on her face.
When she said it was an opportunity, it was because she was puzzled.
At the woman’s question, the man pulled out a letter from her arms.
Then I handed it over to her.
The woman immediately accepted her correspondence.
Charrrr
Then, she opened the letter and began to read it slowly.
How long have you been reading the letter?
Soon the woman looked at her man with her eyes wide open.
It was because the letter contained shocking information that was hard to believe.
“Is this…Is this really true?”
The woman asked him in her trembling voice.
She was so shocked that she questioned whether the information was reliable.
“The person who sent the letter is Yoon Je-gyeom.”
The man answered the woman’s question in a calm tone.
“The old swordsman…”
Upon hearing this, the woman immediately put on an expression of agreement.
It was because she thought that if it was a letter sent by the sword emperor, Yoon Jae-gyeom, she would have no choice but to believe it.
“The opportunity has come. Major Ja.”
The man continued talking while looking at the woman, Major Ja, who clearly looked surprised.
“This is a golden opportunity to bring down Lee Jae-won, the culprit who oppressed you and made you suffer.”
The man looked at Major Ja with straight eyes and continued.
“You can take revenge.”
“Revenge..?”
“Yes, it will free you from a terrible nightmare.”
The man looked at her with his clear gaze and continued her words.
“Would you like to join?”
“…I’m willing…”
Major Ja nodded her head and answered.
Because I thought I could do anything to get out of this terrible nightmare.
“Okay, then let’s get ready.”
“Are you ready?”
“I’m going to Jinan.”
The man spoke in a calm tone.
“For Lee Jae-won’s downfall.”
A deep smile appeared on the man’s lips.
*************
Shandong Province
In front of the gate
Numerous processions began to pass through the city gate in unison.
All of them were support items headed for the Cheonmu-maeng, which was facing the Jeongma Daejeon.
Some for the sake of justice
Some want to do good to the Heavenly Armed Forces
It started sending support without hesitation.
So, it was the guards guarding the castle gate who were busy.
It was because only those who were inspected and investigated and verified were allowed to enter the gate.
“Damn it, it’s filthy hard.”
The gate guard, Hogye, frowned and spat out curse words.
This was the reason why I was irritated by the endless procession even after censorship.
“That’s right, isn’t this enough to reinforce manpower?”
At that time, Kodosu, who was next to him, chimed in and expressed his dissatisfaction.
The work exploded, but there was no staffing at all.
It was because of the stinginess of the owner of the castle, who regarded spending money as if he was cutting himself.
“That salt seller-like nobleman will recruit Chamdo staff.”
Hogye frowned even more and began chewing on the castle wine.
“That nobleman picked the wrong job. A salt seller would have been more suitable than the lord of a castle.”
“I mean, if that was the case, I wouldn’t have gone through so much trouble.”
The two gatekeepers began to joke and giggle.
It was because it seemed that if I did not do this, the anger accumulated in my heart would not be released.
Jerk jerk jerk
Then they started to hear footsteps in their ears.
The gate guards quickly turned their eyes and looked ahead.
Then they saw a handsome man walking towards them.
“Stop!”
Hogye raised his voice while pretending to have a dignified expression on his face.
The men were restrained so that they could enter the castle at will without standing in line.
The man who heard him immediately stopped walking.
“If you want to enter the castle, go to the back row and wait for your turn!”
Hogye continued his words by pointing his finger at the end of the wagon train.
“Because I’m a bit busy.”
The man spoke with a calm expression.
“No, I mean, who isn’t busy here! That’s why I can’t advance the order! Go back now!”
Hogye continued with a stubborn expression on his face.
Everyone here is a busy person.
But how can you say that you are busy ignoring the order and trying to pass?
It was absurd.
Hearing that, the man put his hand right into his arms.
“Muh…What are you doing!”
Seeing this, the guards immediately grabbed the spears and pointed them at him.
It was because he thought that he might pull out a weapon from his bosom.
Whiik
At that moment, the man took something out of his pocket and threw it to the gatekeeper.
Snap
The gate guard quickly accepted the flying object.
‘Is it money!?’
Hogye, who received the object, was delighted and had a smile on his lips.
It was because he had an expectation that he might have handed over a bribe.
He lowered his gaze and glanced down at the object in his hand.
“Golden!?”
And soon, his mouth started to open.
It was because the golden light that was bright enough to make my eyes wide open came into my field of vision.
‘It’s a windfall!’
Hogye was happy.
It was because I thought that what the man threw might be gold.
It was an unexpected stroke of luck.
Hogye began examining the golden object more carefully.
It was a test to see if it was really true.
‘Hmm…The shape is unusual?’
The golden object was very unusual in shape.
On both sides, there was a dragon embossed in gold.
The dragon’s eyes were studded with ruby.
And in the center of the object, there was a letter that read, “Gamchal.”
‘Uh..Ra?..Inspection?’
For a moment, Hogye put on a shocked expression.
It was because he recognized the fact that the item the man handed over was a tile.
There was only one identity that wore a golden dragon and ruby-decorated inspection plaque.
‘Special inspection team!’
A special inspector who was entrusted with the authority of the imperial family and supervised.
It is an identity card that proves them.
“This… This… What the hell…”
Hogye looked at the man with trembling eyes.
“Shh”
The man who bumped into Hogye put one of his fingers to the corner of his mouth, signaling him to be quiet.
It was a sign not to make a big deal out of it.
“Yeah.. Yep!”
Hogye answered right away with a look full of military discipline.
“Then can I go in now?”
The man who saw it continued with a deep smile.
“S… Go in!”
Hogye immediately handed over the inspection plaque and allowed him to enter.
“Thank you.”
The man who received the inspection plaque began to move his steps with a relaxed expression on his face.
Hogye just looked at the man’s back with a blank expression on his face.
Do you think you saw the special inspector in person that you only heard about?
Because he seemed to be dreaming.
