315. Previous generation masters (1)
Jegal Hui also narrowed his eyes.
“It must have been quite a while since I came in… … .”
At that moment, Cheonghwa spoke softly.
“It’s still okay. The thread is moving.”
Cheonghwa pointed to Cheonjamsa Temple, which was slowly unraveling.
Only then did Jegal Hwi’s trembling eyes find stability.
It was when everyone was breathing a sigh of relief.
Sulhwa said to Zhuge Liang.
“Sister, you are friends with our Confucius, so why don’t you trust me?”
“What do you mean? I’m friends with Prince Peng… … .”
When Zhuge Li looked at him with a suspicious look, Seol-hwa straightened her shoulders and spoke proudly.
“Our Confucius is a bit sociable and gets along well with people quickly. That’s why he always suggests that we become friends with everyone we meet.”
“You never asked me to be your friend.”
“You also signed a contract to be my friend, didn’t you?”
“Ah, the contract… … .”
“yes that’s right.”
“That’s the process of becoming friends.”
“Of course. When Confucius makes friends, he always starts by writing a contract. I also started by writing a contract when I first met him.”
“ah.”
Zhuge Li opened his eyes wide at Seolhwa’s words.
It’s so big that it wouldn’t be strange if a bug got in.
In fact, Zhuge Li was dumbfounded. Anyone could see that it was an unfair contract. But how could that be the process of becoming friends?
When Zhuge Li’s eyes fluttered, Hyeonmun looked around anxiously.
Seolhwa asked at that sight.
“Sir, why are you suddenly like that?”
“no.”
Seolhwa’s curiosity grew as she watched Hyeonmun shaking his head from side to side and shaking his shoulders.
“Sir, are you cold?”
“no.”
“But your expression is strange.”
As Seolhwa tilted her head, Hyeonmun continued speaking cautiously.
“That’s… … . I didn’t sign a contract, so how did this happen?”
At Hyeonmun’s words, Zhuge Li’s eyes widened even further.
Now, even large fruits can fit in it.
Zhuge Li suddenly became afraid of the madness of this group.
Her gaze turned to Jegal Hwi.
But Jegal Hui’s eyes were not ordinary.
The look in his eyes as he floats around in the river seems like he is worried about his family.
For a moment, Zhuge Li also looked at the river that Han Bin had entered.
Now, I could only trust the Four Dukes of Habukpengga.
As Zhuge Li looked at the river with trembling eyes, Seol-hwa waved her hand and soothed the gate.
“Don’t worry about that, sir.”
“What does that mean?”
“Well, I’ll use it later, so wait your turn.”
“hmm.”
Hanbin looked at the river water that had entered through the broken gate.
For a moment, Hyunmun focused on the thread that Cheonghwa had caught.
The thread was now motionless.
Hyunmun asked.
“Cheonghwa, why isn’t the thread moving?”
“This is proof that we have arrived at our destination.”
“Then shouldn’t I come out?”
“Well, you will come out.”
When Cheonghwa answered nonchalantly, Hyeonmun asked in a bewildered manner.
“Aren’t you worried about your master?”
“Hey, why worry about that? Our Confucius is not the type of person to get hurt.”
“I guess I… … .”
Hyunmun stood up, feeling frustrated.
Suddenly, bubbles began to bubble up from the water.
As the bubbles got closer, Hyunmun narrowed his eyes.
When everyone’s eyes are focused on the river.
Bam!
A small spray of water rose up and Hanbin jumped out.
Hanbin came out to the river, drenched in water and splashing around.
Hanbin, who had come to the group, released the rock that had been tied to his leg.
Hanbin sat down on his seat and took a deep breath.
“phew.”
No one asked Hanbin.
Hanbin looked that haggard.
Hanbin’s expression never wavered even as he ran for over a hundred miles.
But when Hanbin’s expression became serious, everyone just watched in silence.
Hanbin ate breakfast quietly for a while.
A mysterious energy hovered between the inhalation and exhalation.
It was an energy that even someone who didn’t know martial arts could feel, so it was impossible for Zhuge Li or Zhuge Hui not to feel it.
Zhuge Li could not figure out how such a monster appeared in the martial arts world.
It was surprising that even Zhuge Liang, who was considered the best in information warfare, had raised a talent unknown to him in Habuk Pengga.
Then Hanbin woke up.
“Everyone, get ready.”
“Will we be able to find the whereabouts of our family members? Prince Peng.”
When Zhuge Li asked cautiously, Han Bin nodded.
“Yes, I think I have the general idea.”
“Then that sound coming from the river… … .”
“It’s half right and half wrong.”
“What does that mean?”
“The strange sounds coming from this river could be screams or machinery.”
“then…….”
“Now I have to check it out myself.”
“Where should I go?”
“It’s over there.”
Hanbin pointed with his index finger to a large garden across the river.
Zhuge Li, who saw that place, bit his dry lips.
“Hmm. Then let’s leave quickly, Prince Peng.”
“Just a moment. We’ll leave as soon as we’re ready.”
After finishing speaking, Hanbin approached Cheonghwa.
When Hanbin reached out his hand, Cheonghwa handed him a thread.
A taut thread.
The one who noticed it the most was the main gate.
“Why is the thread being pulled?”
“I went downstairs and saw that there was a formation set up.”
“A formation? Can you tell me what kind of formation it is?”
“We all return to the same place.”
“You’re saying it’s the same as Donggwijin?”
Hyunmun narrowed his eyes. That would be the case. If you say Donggwi-eojin, isn’t that a method of turning your back on the world along with the other person?
At that time, Hanbin looked at Zhuge Liang.
Zhuge Li, who had been receiving attention, said:
“The Donggwijin that Peng Gongzi speaks of seems to be a real formation. It is a large-scale formation that is usually set up to completely eliminate evidence. It is a formation that requires the addition of organs. It is usually a formation like a water-based formation, a fire-based formation, or a ground-based formation.”
Hanbin briefly interrupted her words.
“These are the formations that cover everything with water, burn everything with fire, and fill everything with earth. The one set up here is a water formation.”
“I’ve never heard of such a strategy before.”
“That’s right. It’s usually used in military operations. Besides, in the martial arts world, if you use such a vicious formation, you’ll most likely be labeled a martial arts master.”
“then…….”
“If the formation below is the same as the Donggwijin, then the opponent is likely an organization we don’t know about. Or… … .”
“If not, then what?”
“Otherwise, it is possible that the organization we don’t know about could have been defeated by other forces before the Su-gyeong-jin could explode.”
“after.”
When Zhuge Li sighed, Han Bin nodded as if he understood his feelings.
Hanbin turned his head for a moment.
Then she handed the thread to Jegal Hwi, who was next to her.
“Okay, Zhuge Liang will take charge of this.”
“What is this?”
“If you pull, you die.”
“Die?”
“Everyone inside the enemy-made cave will die.”
“then…….”
“If I go there, I will die, the enemy will die, and the Zhuge family will die.”
“Why are you giving this to me?”
“It’s literally a double-cross. If we’re pushed back, we’ll take out as many of the Zhuge family members as possible, so just activate the formation to prevent the enemy from coming out.”
“What is that… … .”
“If you have an enemy you can’t deal with, it’s common sense to bury them.”
“but…….”
“You don’t trust me?”
Hanbin looked at Jegal Hwi quietly.
Jegal Hui shook his head and said.
“No, I believe you, Prince Peng.”
“Okay then. As a signal, I’ll shoot off firecrackers. Red ones.”
“Yes, I understand. But why are you entrusting me with such an important mission?”
“Aren’t you the weakest here?”
“ah.”
Jegal Hui let out an exclamation with a deflated expression.
Then he looked at Zhuge Liang.
“And Sister Zhuge Liang, will you give me the troops you have?”
“The military force… … .”
“Don’t you have the military badge of the Justice Alliance?”
“Hmm, how did you know that… … .”
She looked at Hanbin as if he was dumbfounded, but obediently handed him the military badge.
Hanbin, who had received military defeat, called Cheonghwa.
“You deliver this military package to Gae-gyeong along with the letter I have entrusted to you in advance.”
“Can’t I go in there?”
When Cheonghwa pointed to the garden across the river, Hanbin smiled.
“If you tell me quickly, I can join you. But don’t overdo it.”
“Then I’m doing two jobs.”
“Well, that’s true.”
“Hehe, when you’re done with work, buy me something delicious.”
They started crossing the river, leaving behind the brightly smiling Cheonghwa.
The screams echo again in an instant.
Kkaaa-ah.
The speed of Hanbin and his group crossing the river became even faster.
* * *
After a moment of tea, they crossed the river.
Hanbin, who was hiding in front of Jangwon, opened his mouth at the scale of it.
The problem was that the manor was connected to the river below, and what was visible was only the tip of the iceberg.
Even from the outside, it looked like it was full of huge pavilions. However, if all the passages were connected to the river, the hidden space must have been more than ten times larger than what was visible.
It was when Zhuge Li was about to climb over the wall.
Hanbin grabbed her sleeve.
“But why? Prince Peng.”
“Take a whiff of what’s inside.”
“Hmm, isn’t that a typical farmhouse smell?”
“That’s right. Don’t you think it’s strange that such a smell comes from such a manor?”
“It’s strange, but what’s the problem?”
“It’s a problem. The first thing that notices an intruder in a farm is a yellow croaker. Can’t you hear it now?”
Hanbin pointed over the wall.
There, the cries of various livestock were constantly ringing out.
Zhuge Li shook his head and said.
“I think this is a misjudgment on your part. Do you think they will notice us when it’s this noisy?”
“What if the sounds of livestock change in the midst of the noise? Perhaps the enemy will be able to detect our movements through this subtle change.”
“So, are you saying we should take a picture of the blood of the livestock?”
“It’s stranger when it’s quiet.”
“Then what do you want us to do?”
“If it’s a big mansion like this, there must be a waterway leading outside.”
“It’s too… … to find it.”
“Of course it is nearby.”
Hanbin smiled and pointed down.
The place Hanbin pointed to had a stone slab that looked heavy at first glance.
Hanbin looked at the main gate with a grin.
“Please help me with this. By the way, please don’t break it.”
“I see. My lower abdomen is twitching wildly as I try to relax after a long time. But I’ll hold on for now.”
After finishing speaking, Hyeonmun lifted the stone tablet.
Rattling.
As Hyeonmun moved the stone slab to the side and shook his hand, Zhuge Li opened his eyes wide.
On the stone slab that had been moved to the side, the fingerprints left by the gatekeeper were clear.
Although he is said to be the best shaman, I don’t understand the inaction he displayed now, as I know he stopped practicing for ten years.
Hyunmun noticed Zhuge Li’s gaze and whispered softly.
“A land of gain and loss.”
“Huh? What do you mean, sir?”
“That’s a secret.”
Hyunmun just laughed.
At that time, Hanbin quickly went down.
Fortunately, there was no separate organ device.
As Hanbin snapped his fingers, Seolhwa quickly lit the torch and brought it over.
Hanbin, who was handed the torch, walked little by little into the darkness.
* * *
Meanwhile, Jegal Gongyeong, the head of the Jegal family who was locked up in a corner warehouse, trembled his eyes.
Even now, the screams of the Sega family were ringing in my ears.
That scream was a scream, but the opponent’s method was too bizarre.
There was no significant bleeding even when the ribs were removed.
Additionally, his eyes seemed to be enjoying the situation.
Now that I think about it, I’ve heard that method somewhere before.
Zhuge Liang spoke quietly to himself.
“The Dark King?”
