The invisible fight is scarier (3)
“Crumple.”
“Wow, it’s delicious! “It’s really delicious!”
“execution! “Give me some more salt!”
“hey! there! “Leave some of the boar’s leg meat!”
There was no real scenery.
About fifty beggars were scattered here and there, eagerly chewing the meat of wild boars and rabbits they had just killed.
It looked so delicious that it brought tears to my eyes. In fact, there seemed to be ten people tearing into the meat with tears and snot pouring out.
‘Wow…’
Pang Man-ho felt himself overwhelmed by the sight.
Looking at them, I realize once again whether life is really worth living properly at least once.
The delicious smell of freshly hunted wild boar and rabbit is eaten as if it were a worldly delicacy. There was nothing I couldn’t eat because of the bloating, but it wasn’t something I would eat with such happiness.
‘I must have starved for several days.’
If he knew that they hadn’t starved even for a single meal, the look in Pang Man-ho’s eyes would have become even more strange.
Zhuge Zhenyan scratched his head.
“How much did you do?”
Yeon Ho-jeong, who was chewing on rabbit meat, looked at her with puzzled eyes.
“what?”
“How on earth did you manipulate those people so that everyone became a ghost?”
“As much as you need?”
“What kind of order is that?”
“Enough to be usable.”
You shouldn’t talk.
“So you can use it now?”
“so so.”
It was difficult for Zhuge Zhenyan to imagine how much that was.
However, I knew how independent Yeon Ho-jeong was and how high his gaze was.
If he liked Yeon Ho-jeong like that, he would have gone through an incredible amount of hardship.
“You shouldn’t talk. hey! “Don’t eat it all, but give it to me too.”
“Do you have no conscience? “I stole food from someone who had been rolling in the mountains for three months…”
“I didn’t eat lunch! Give it to me!”
Yeon Ho-jeong took a bite and handed over a piece of rabbit meat. Regret overflowed from his eyes.
Zhuge Zhenyan, who was chewing meat in a combative manner, saw Pang Man-ho.
“Gomtaeng. Should you do one too?”
“…I’m done.”
“why? Are not you hungry? “He’s a big guy.”
“Maybe it’s because I’m so overwhelmed, but I’m not hungry at all.”
“It’s bland.”
Zhuge Zhenyeon, who had been eating meat for a while, patted his stomach.
“Oh, I can finally live a little better.”
Yeon Ho-jeong chuckled.
“Anyway, I received the call, but why did you come with Mr. Paeng’s younger brother?”
“hmm? “What, didn’t you hear the details?”
“They just gave me a letter and left. “I will send Manho with you today.”
“I see.”
Yeon Ho-jeong, who had finished eating, looked back and shouted.
“I can’t do it. I have a lot to talk about here, so take a good rest after you finish eating. “Let’s pretend there is no stabbing today.”
Yunho looked at Yeonhojeong with a shocked face.
“Did you really try to roll it again?”
“uh.”
“….”
“Anyway, I said I wouldn’t do it. “Rest.”
Yeon Ho-jeong, who had made the atmosphere cold with just one answer, turned his head back to Zhuge Zhen and Pang Man-ho.
His cheeks had lost some weight on his face, but his eyes were still clear.
No, it seemed deeper and clearer than three months ago. The three months of training seemed to have made not only the Mortal Army but also Yeonhojeong’s martial arts more solid.
“I can guess why they sent you.”
“Do you think you must be clumsy?”
“Okay, first, let’s recite how things are going.”
It was a time when Yeon Ho-jeong and Zhuge Zhan Pang Man-ho were having a fairly deep conversation.
“what? sister.”
“huh?”
Is it because we have poured blood and sweat together so far?
Mukbi was treated as the most senior in the Mortal Army. At first, the sound of my sister’s voice gave me goosebumps and I shuddered, but I guess I’m quite used to it now.
Dongho looked at Mukbi with puzzled eyes.
“Don’t you want to eat any more?”
“are you okay. “This is enough.”
“I’ve felt this for a long time, but it seems like you really want to know.”
“If you eat too much, your movements become sluggish.”
The entire Mortal Army flinched.
They secretly noticed the silence. They also knew that Mukbi was a very innocent and good person, but when she took on the role of the leader, she was a devil worse than Yeonhojeong.
Mukbi felt embarrassed and added.
“I say yes. “Because there are differences from person to person.”
“…Isn’t that right?”
“huh. I am an archer. “You need to move more delicately than others.”
Only then did the Lord of Death relax and focus on eating again.
Yunho repeatedly cleared his throat.
“But sister.”
“why?”
“Shouldn’t you listen to the conversation with the commander?”
Mukbi looked at Yeonhojeong.
Yeon Ho-jeong’s expression as he listened to Zhuge Zhen’s words was quite serious. It seemed like his ears were wide open for the first time in a long time.
Mukbi shook his head.
“I don’t know much about what goes on in the world. Even if you heard it, you wouldn’t even understand what it was about.”
“Ah…”
Usually, the martial arts people did not reveal their ugly qualities. Because that can be a weakness.
But silence was different. She was quite cold-hearted in her evaluation of herself. That was her strength, but sometimes it could also be her weakness.
Mukbi, who turned his gaze away from Yeonhojeong and looked around, suddenly made eye contact with a person.
It was Okcheong.
“Hmm…”
Okcheong scratched her head as if feeling embarrassed. Scratching his head with the same hand that was tearing at the greasy meat was an act that would have been unthinkable three months ago.
“That Manager Muk….”
“Do you eat meat?”
“yes?”
Mukbi’s face was full of puzzlement.
“You haven’t eaten meat for three months, right? “Didn’t you stock up on Byeokgokdan or something?”
At the same time, red dirt broke out here and there.
“sister! Don’t be fooled! “I caught and ate a rabbit without the master’s knowledge!”
“rabbit? No, master? “I’m going to catch a roe deer with you…?”
“I beg your pardon? “You and I caught and ate a pheasant?!”
“There is no meat that I haven’t eaten, that human. “Aren’t you just a butcher who only speaks loudly?”
Okcheong’s face turned red.
“You have trained to go back and forth between life and death. The commander said that. “It is said that the ghosts that died after eating had beautiful stains.”
“Then why do you keep eating it in secret?”
“It’s embarrassing…”
Okcheong, who had been jeered by her companions with a sound that didn’t even sound like a word, opened her mouth again.
“By the way, Manager Mook.”
“huh?”
“But shouldn’t you go and listen?”
“Me too?”
“yes.”
Okcheong spoke with an uncharacteristically serious expression.
“There is no clear system in place yet, but the manager is the second-in-command of the Mortal Army. “When the commander is not around, the chief has to lead us.”
“ah…?”
“It’s not what I’m going to tell you, but if you’re not familiar with it, it might be a good idea to learn it from the commander right now.”
Mukbi was embarrassed.
“Should that be the case?”
Okcheong smiled gently.
“yes. I think so. I believe that if you make up your mind, you will learn faster than anyone else. “Isn’t that right?”
Okcheong asked Yunho for consent.
Yunho cleared his throat.
“I think so too.”
At that time, Yeon Ho-jeong, who had been talking for a while, raised his hand.
“Silence!”
“yes?”
“What are you doing there? Come on. “I was wondering what was so empty, and then I wondered where it was.”
“me too?”
“Then who listens but you, man! Hey, wow! uh? But have you finished eating?”
“I ate it all.”
“You ate as much as a rat’s tail again, right? There is meat left here. “Come and eat some more.”
Mukbi walked to Yeonhojeong, hesitantly.
Yunho chuckled.
“Why is it that someone as fierce as a ghost is so naive in a place like that?”
The warriors chuckled.
During the three months of hellish training, I was never as tired as when I was sparring with Mo Fei. However, after sparring, she made sure to check the other person’s body.
He may be a man of few words, but he is a very deep person. Mukbi’s gentle nature captivated all of the mortal forces.
“But.”
“Me?”
Song Yeon-gyeong and the Amipa Changsoo (??) tilted their heads.
Okcheong asked cautiously.
“I’ve been wanting to ask you for a long time, are monks allowed to eat meat?”
Pusss.
Song Yeon-gyeong and the Changsoos all took off their hats. Then, her hair, which had been pulled up, hung down to her lower back and was flowing.
“We are Ami’s family, right?”
“…?!”
“Surely you knew that now?”
Okcheong opened his mouth like a carp.
Because the physical training was so hard, I didn’t have many conversations with people from the Ami faction. He was very polite in front of women.
“Did you find out now?”
“oh my god.”
Yeo-guk, who was patting her stomach with satisfaction, said.
“Yeonkyung, don’t expect anything from that guy. “It’s the first time in my life I’ve seen someone so insensitive.”
Okcheong turned her head so that she could hear an odd sound.
“We’re already at the end…?!”
“I woke up on the third day. Yeon-kyung has been beaten so much by the spear that I am trying to win at least with my age.”
“….”
“Why are you doing that?”
“…no.”
“You seem upset?”
“no!”
“Okay.”
As if they had some free time, the soldiers gathered in groups of twos and threes and were absorbed in telling jokes.
On the other hand, the atmosphere of the Yeonhojeong group was quite serious.
“It’s already become so intense.”
“that’s right.”
Zhuge Yan sighed.
“Moyongse probably knew about it by now. “The Zhuge family and the Peng family gave strength to the Mortal Army.”
“hmm.”
Yeon Ho-jeong stroked his chin.
“It’s definitely as Jegal Family Lord said. “Right now, it’s better to strengthen our side rather than take away their power.”
“Actually, at first, I thought I might have oversized the plate.”
“It was not long after the Murim League was founded. No matter how you hide a strong conflict at the top, it is bound to be passed down. “There’s no need to make up your mind and confront it at a time like this.”
“Yes, I heard that Lord Yeonga also said so.”
“My father is a bit sharp. “Unlike me, he thinks based on the greater good.”
“Are you praising your father or yourself?”
“both.”
“Anyway, I’m pretending it’s not the case, but the atmosphere is slowly becoming sharper. In particular, the leader of the Tangma Army is increasingly revealing his presence.”
Yeon Ho-jeong’s eyes sparkled.
“okay?”
“I thought he was not an ordinary person since Lord Moyong showed himself off with such confidence, but I think he is a much greater person than that.”
Yeon Ho-jeong did not ask about that in detail.
He trusted Mo Yong-woo. Now, any news related to it must be viewed as a ‘process’. Any matters worth mentioning will be heard separately from Geun-sang.
“And Danga.”
Zhuge Yan frowned openly.
“I was wondering why it was so quiet, and it looks like they were measuring both sides in the middle. “My father also got a call.”
“So what happened?”
“It hasn’t surfaced yet, but… “I think he probably has some kind of relationship with the Mo Yong family.”
Yeonhojeong’s eyes grew cold.
‘Dangwan.’
A man who was the vice-leader of the Murim Alliance who even drove a feather needle into his chest, knowing that he would die even if left alone.
Although it was Prince Moyong who planned the plan, it was the party official who carried it out. To Yeon Ho-jeong, they were all bastards whom he would not mind beating to death.
“Who is that guy who beat me up at the meeting?”
“Dangyangseon? He didn’t come. Instead, he brought his eldest daughter.”
“Eldest daughter?”
“Damcheonshinnyeo (????). “I’m Dangyangseon’s older sister.”
“…?”
“…You sure you don’t know?”
“Cough.”
“hey!”
Zhuge Zhenyan swung his fist in the air. It seemed like he wanted to grab Yeon Ho-jeong by the collar and shake him.
“Please live with celebrity in mind! “How can there be someone who doesn’t even know the Dark Heaven Goddess!”
“Hey.”
Yeon Ho-jeong pointed to Mukbi.
“He doesn’t know either.”
Mukbi said as if he was embarrassed.
“I only lived in the mountains.”
“You don’t know anyway.”
Zhuge Zhenyan took a deep breath. I couldn’t show my ugly side in front of someone I didn’t know much about just by exchanging simple greetings.
“sorry. “I was a little excited, right?”
“Oh no.”
“Thank you for your hard work. “Wouldn’t it upset you if you walked around with this damn guy?”
“…Sometimes.”
Yeonhojeong is perfect! I clicked my teeth together to make a sound.
“Don’t talk nonsense, so is Dark Heavenly Lady a great person?”
“It’s one of the three peaks. Although he is a martial artist, he is said to be gifted with tremendous talent in both poison and memorization. “When it comes to martial arts lethality, he will compete for the highest level among his peers.”
“Martial arts are not important. “I want to ask about character.”
Zhuge Yan shook his head.
“I don’t know about that. However, I heard that the head of the Tang family cherishes him more than the eldest son.”
Yeon Ho-jeong frowned.
‘I cherish it…’
In the past, during the time of the Emperor of Darkness, I had talked with the party official a few times.
Tang Gwan was a person who perfectly combined the Tang clan’s unique harshness and selfish personality. Although he has his own sense of loyalty, he is willing to use any means to achieve his goal.
A woman who trusts such a person more than the eldest son who will inherit the family?
“Just in case, I guess I’ll have to ask Hugae to find out.”
Yeon Ho-jeong nodded.
“Anyway, you worked hard to get here.”
“What trouble?”
“You’re going to have a lot of trouble in the future, but are you ready to die?”
“No matter what he said, he always said it in such a cruel way.”
Zhuge Zhenyan hit his forearm.
“I am the craziest bitch in Yongzhong Mountain.”
“Okay, see you.”
Yeon Ho-jeong looked at Pang Man-ho.
Pang Man-ho folded his arms with a leisurely movement. The protruding biceps looked as strong as a rock.
“Hebei crazy guy added.”
“I get it.”
Yeon Ho-jeong smiled.
“I sincerely welcome you to the Mortal Army.”
Zhuge Yan stretched out his fist.
“Please take care of me in the future.”
Yeon Ho-jeong clenched his fist and hit her fist.
“Me too.”
“Anyway, are you going to start cleaning Heukdo from now on?”
“That’s right.”
“Where do we start from?”
hook.
In an instant, the air in the vacant lot became cold.
All the soldiers who were gathered in small groups and chatting looked at us with cold eyes. Everyone was listening to the conversation even though they were pretending not to be.
Seeing that sight, Zhuge Yan felt his heart grow cold.
The soldiers’ eyes were as ferocious as wolves in prayer. So much so that one would not even dare to think that they were disciples of the Old Daemun Sect.
The person with eyes as harsh as all of them combined spoke.
“We will go in that order, mountain warfare and then urban warfare.”
“…?”
“Start with green forests.”
