Episode 277

Where does conflict come from (2)

“…that’s how it came out?”

“That’s right. “Their spirit was so vicious that we had no choice but to listen to them for now. The head of the Hubei branch of the station was contacted.”

“if? “You brought medicine to that witch?!”

“For now, yes.”

“You idiot! “You can’t believe you made such a mistake!”

“yes? “A mistake?”

“The two men who are the strongest late exponents of the Murim League at the time and the two-headed chariot of the Murim League’s remnant troops have tremendous influence. “I don’t know if they themselves know it, but it is no exaggeration to say that their reputation is comparable to that of the Great Moon Sect’s elder level or higher.”

“That’s right. So even more so….”

“Since they have built such a reputation at such a young age, how much must those around them keep in check against those two! “If those two really want to attack us, we can immediately report this drastic action to the Murim Alliance’s vassals!”

“ah…!”

“Our Uisinhoe is an association of lawmakers that continues the orthodox tradition of the Central Powers. What would the civilian world think of the warriors of the Murim League who oppress such lawmakers?!”

“I see. “No matter what threats those two make, the Murim Alliance cannot easily touch us.”

“It’s not just that you can’t touch it; you can never touch it! “As long as we don’t do something clearly wrong!”

“Oh my…”

“I put him in the position of branch leader because of his skills and good reputation, but I should have appointed someone who was good at politics. “It was said that reporting after prior measures is prohibited except in extreme circumstances.”

“What should I do now?”

“What should I do? “We have to move on to the next plan!”

“If this is your next plan… no way?!”

“Sending the reversal station to them was not to persuade them. Even though Yeon Ho-jeong doesn’t know, Mo Yong-woo is a person with whom he can communicate, so he was sent to make him aware of the danger of witches. “In the first place, we didn’t think that these idiots who didn’t even know anything about medicine would immediately believe us.”

“But…”

“I sent you just to plant a seed of doubt, but you ended up being defeated by their threats like idiots. There really is no answer. “How can you do great things by trusting someone like that?”

“Vice Lord, but the opponent is the Murim Alliance. Just as the Vice Lord said, if we carry out that plan, the Murim Alliance will try to invade us in earnest.”

“Does not matter. “Because we won’t be revealed to the front anyway.”

“The head of the Gayeokso branch said that from now on, any external pressure or attack on that witch will be regarded as our doing.”

“Have you forgotten everything I just said?! Those two guys can never touch us! “We will use that time to attack the Murim Alliance’s vassals.”

“ah…!”

“I didn’t know that when I was naively learning medicine. But you too will soon realize. The world cannot survive on skill alone. It is a place where politics, intrigue, betrayal, and trickery run rampant. “If the world were that dirty, we too would have no choice but to step into the mud to survive.”

“….”

“Get ready! Right Now!”

“Oh, I understand.”

next day.

Heeheeheehee!

Yeon Ho-jeong, who was leading the horse, had a frozen face.

Mo Yong-woo shouted.

“Yeonje!”

“why?”

“Is there anything that could catch me? “I know it’s time to move quickly, but it still seems too urgent.”

Yeon Ho-jeong frowned.

“I don’t know what kind of organization the Uishinhoe is, but in any case, if it’s the head of a branch that controls Hubei Province, it must have a lot of influence.”

“I think so too.”

“But something keeps happening.”

“You got caught? “What do you mean?”

“…well.”

Aside from everything else, this was their first time coming into contact with an organization called Uishinhoe.

We don’t know what their goals are or where and how they operate. In fact, it was the first time I heard of an organization called Uisinhoe in Yeonhojeong, which went through the time of the Emperor of Darkness.

‘Has history changed? A newly created organization? Or was it something that existed back then, but was carried out completely below the surface?’

I couldn’t figure it out.

The important thing was that the public did not know much about the organization called Uisinhoe. If there was even the slightest possibility of becoming entangled with them, Geung-sang would have tipped off first.

‘That means we have no way of predicting what they will do.’

In reality, it may be an unremarkable organization. However, the mere fact that their existence was not revealed on the surface was enough to warrant vigilance.

Mo Yong-woo said.

“Is it because you think they might really attack the West Region priestess?”

“I don’t know. “In my head, I don’t think that’s possible, but I keep getting caught.”

Mo Yong-woo’s face hardened.

He knew well how sharp Yeon Ho-jeong’s intuition was. His intuition was not something to be dismissed as simply a matter of mood.

Extreme insight was linked to extreme intuition. Mo Yong-woo trusted Yeon Ho-jeong’s sixth sense as much as he trusted his eyes.

“Let’s run first. “There is nothing to lose by going quickly.”

“Okay, let’s do it.”

Doo doo doo doo.

The four men moved south at an alarming speed.

After running downhill for three or four days, we soon arrived at the Yangtze River.

Mo Yong-woo approached a sailor. He was a large man with a rough beard and the appearance of a typical sailor.

“Look here.”

“hmm?”

Jang Han, who saw Mo Yong-woo, said with a sour face.

“what?”

Sailors’ distribution was said to be the best in the world, and it wasn’t really wrong. If he was wearing armor and a sword, it was clear that he belonged to the government or was a martial artist, but instead of being anxious, he was even snorting.

Mo Yong-woo said calmly.

“I need to cross the Yangtze River in a hurry. Where can I get the fastest boat?”

The sailor’s eyes sparkled.

“Any ship can depart quickly. “As long as you give me enough money.”

Mo Yong-woo’s face brightened.

“exactly?”

“I don’t know how long you’ve been looking around, but I’m glad you came. “It is difficult to find a speedboat as fast as ours here on the Yangtze River.”

“I also need to ride four war horses.”

“Hmm? Then you’ll need a slightly larger ship, not the sleek speedboat type. “You will also need to prepare plenty of hay.”

“That’s right.”

“Do you have enough money?”

“How much do you need?”

“The more you give, the better. “Like all professions in the world, we work for as much as we give.”

There was no time for useless bargaining. Mo Yong-woo took out the phone bag from his arms.

“Is this enough?”

The sailor’s eyes widened as he received the gift. Inside the bag were as many as five gold wrappers.

“Heh heh! Do you have a lot of money? “Hehe, if it’s like this, I can send it to you right now.”

“Thank you. “Then I will ask you to do it right away.”

“Okay. It’s been a while since I had an angry customer. ah! But one more procedure is needed.”

“Procedure? What procedure do you mean?”

“Affiliation. “Are you from the military?”

“no.”

“Eh? if?”

Mo Yong-woo glanced behind him.

He said in a low voice.

“We are part of the Murim Alliance military unit.”

There was nothing good about talking about it here and there. Mo Yong-woo did not want the surroundings to become confused.

But the sailor’s reaction was louder than expected.

“…Murim League military unit?!”

Mo Yong-woo frowned. The sailor’s voice was too loud.

“exactly.”

“….”

“Why are you doing that?”

The sailor, who was looking at Mo Yong-woo with narrowed eyes, held out his wallet again.

“Take it.”

“…?!”

“I told you to take it. “We will not be carrying any members of the Murim Alliance for the time being.”

Mo Yong-woo’s eyes wavered.

“You’re saying you don’t pick up members of the Murim League? “Why are you doing that?”

“That’s none of your business. “If you really want to take a boat, find somewhere else.”

“No, you have to tell me the reason….”

“Oh, that’s it! “Don’t bother me and look elsewhere!”

At that time, Yeonhojeong took a step closer.

The sailor flinched without realizing it. He was momentarily overwhelmed by the huge ax hanging over Yeon Ho-jeong’s shoulder.

Yeon Ho-jeong asked with a smile.

“I heard that there are several organizations formed by sailors.”

“Is that so?”

Being overwhelmed is only a moment. The sailor regained his characteristic sour expression.

“Did the organization tell you not to belong to the Murim League?”

“That’s none of your business.”

“You really are amazing.”

“…What do you mean?”

“I heard that most sailors are as good as martial arts masters. “I heard many people say that they are very resourceful and fearless, and that they are better at fighting than most martial people on the waterway.”

“Huh!”

“These people are wading through rough waters, so their bravery must be outstanding. “Seeing you, I realized once again that each of the sailors were outstanding men.”

The sailor quenched his appetite.

“Even if you flatter me, I can’t give you a ride. “Please stop.”

“I’m not flattering you. “It’s just an honest impression.”

“Okay, now…”

“But. “I knew that the sailors were one of the most powerful men in the central region, but I didn’t know that they were fraudsters.”

The sailor’s face suddenly became grim.

“A fraudster?!”

“This guy was in a hurry so he just skipped over, but five gold wonbos is enough to buy a couple of decent speed boats. “Am I wrong?”

“A risk! “What do you think about that?”

“No matter how important money is, would you take that much money and drive the boat as if it were a favor? “Fraud is not limited to lying.”

The sailor smiled crookedly.

“So what? “This transaction is invalid anyway.”

“Do you mind if what you did spreads throughout the neighborhood?”

“Do whatever you want. “I don’t know what that means.”

Although he said so, the sailor’s expression was noticeably distorted. It seemed like they had their own rules, and it didn’t seem like there would be any good news about it.

Yeon Ho-jeong smiled.

“I won’t spread that rumor. So please do me a favor.”

“her! Are you going to bargain with me now? “Stop talking nonsense…”

“I will only buy one speedboat.”

“…Ugh?”

“It’s okay if you don’t drive me around. Instead, please give us five gold wonbos and give us a speedboat to ride on our own.”

The sailor’s eyes wavered.

“Are you really saying that you will cross the Yangtze River by yourself?”

“I told you not to pick us up, right? Then we have no choice but to go on our own.”

“You’re crazy. If you fall into the river on this cold winter day, no matter how much you are a martial artist…”

“You just have to choose. I’ll ask again. Would you sell a speedboat for this money? Or will you pass this wonderful opportunity to another sailor?”

“…gulp.”

“I told you not to let me ride, but didn’t I tell you not to sell the boat?”

“That’s right.”

Yeon Ho-jeong smiled and shook his purse.

“I don’t know where such an order came from, but do we, who belong to the Murim Alliance, say two things with the same mouth? Don’t worry, take this great opportunity. “No, there is no need to. Just tell your superiors what I just said.”

The sailor, who was looking at the ship with sparkling eyes, soon turned and shouted.

“hey! Jangchil!”

“yes?”

“Bring me the strange fish.”

“What about strange fish? why?”

“This bastard is going to die. “Why don’t you come out right now?!”

“Oh, I understand.”

From the looks of it, it seemed like he was a senior with a lot of experience.

The sailor cleared his throat and took the envelope.

“Don’t spread rumors. Do you understand?”

“Don’t worry.”

“Kahahahahah! But have you ever driven a boat? “What are you going to do with all those words?”

“Please take care of it until I come back.”

“Hehehe, if I sell it, it will be quite expensive, right?”

“….”

“If you’re going to sell those horses, one more speedboat…”

At that moment, Yeon Ho-jeong’s eyes became as cold as ice.

The sailor’s face turned pale in an instant.

“hey.”

“…!!”

“I’ve endured enough for this one. Stop rambling and get the boat out quickly.”

After a while.

The group, who entrusted the warhorse to a sailor, drove a speedboat and crossed the Yangtze River.
