Habuk Pengga Swordsman Genius - Chapter 351



Only Noblemtl

351. The fragrance of fire (2)

Hanbin’s mouth watered at the shout.

“Ugh.”

“What is it, my lord?”

When Sim Mi-ho asked, Han Bin shook off his clothes and spoke.

“I’m curious about what happened to Habukpyeongga. If it’s called Yongbongjihoe, then everyone except for the previous Jisoo would have participated… … .”

“Habuk Pengga passed the preliminaries.”

“That’s fortunate.”

“If you’re that worried, you can just go up and go to the Yongbong branch.”

“Hey, I have more important things to do than the Yongbongjihoe.”

“My lord, in this current situation, what could be more important than the Yongbongjihoe?”

“Why not? In some ways, the Yongbong branch is the most trivial thing.”

“What do you mean? It’s a matter of selecting the next generation of the next generation of the next generation. The family that produces the winner of the Yongbongjihoe will take home a significant portion of the stakes.”

“Vice President Shim, I have one question for you.”

“Yes, my lord.”

“Do you think the cow is important, or do you think the barn is important?”

“Hmm, what does that mean?”

“What good would it do if all the cows were gone and you gave me an empty barn?”

“Then, is what you are trying to do, my lord, to fix the barn?”

“Absolutely not.”

“Then what is it?”

“If you steal the cow, it doesn’t matter if the barn burns down or breaks down.”

“Ah… … Then who takes all those cows?”

“Of course… … .”

“hmm.”

Sim Mi-ho swallowed dryly as if she was nervous. Han-bin smiled at her and continued speaking.

“I, no, we should have it.”

“Us?”

“Me and the Red Blood Tigers, and my family! Chief Sim has suffered for a month too. He hasn’t even seen the light of day. So it’s right to call him “us.”

Sim Mi-ho’s eyes became moist at Han Bin’s words. It seemed that not only Sim Mi-ho’s eyes, but also the eyes of the Red Blood Tiger Squad members following behind were filled with moisture.

Sim Mi-ho said.

“Oh, thank you for your consideration, my lord.”

“Why are you shedding tears?”

“No, my lord.”

“Because Chief Sim is like this, I sound like a bad owner.”

“But… … .”

The moisture in Sim Mi-ho’s moist eyes disappeared and curiosity rose.

Hanbin quickly asked at that sight.

“What’s wrong? Deputy Chief Sim.”

“How are you going to get that cow?”

“First, you have to throw out the bait.”

“Bait?”

“If you wait leisurely like Jiang Taigong, won’t the time come? The water has to rise for the big fish to be caught.”

“… … .”

Sim Mi-ho opened her eyes wide. When Han-bin said that, she felt nervous for some reason.

Whenever Hanbin used the expressions Wanggeoni or Dae-eo, a shocking incident occurred.

If it weren’t for that incident, would we have dug a tunnel for a month and made these preparations?

Looking at what’s happened so far, it’s clear that this is more dangerous than ever.

Hanbin just smiled at the sight of Sim Miho licking her lips.

When the eyes and smiles were exchanged, Sim Mi-ho asked as if she couldn’t hold it in any longer.

“Could something like last time happen again?”

“Last time… … .”

“Like in Jangwoonhyeon.”

“That could be true. It could be more dangerous.”

“omg.”

Sim Mi-ho let out a scream. There were no casualties among our troops in Jang Woon-hyeon, but there were more than a few instances where even a slight misstep could have sent them straight to the underworld.

Sim Mi-ho, who had been screaming, quickly continued speaking.

“Then shouldn’t you go up and let them know in advance right now?”

“If I go up, the things I’m worried about might not happen.”

“Then what would be better… … .”

“No. People only know gratitude when they are saved when they are in real danger. And even if this passes, it will happen again someday, so it would be better to end it here.”

“ah.”

“Isn’t it Habukpyeongga that Chief Sim is worried about?”

“… … .”

“But it’s not like it’s any different from other martial arts worlds.”

“Yes, that’s right. What I’m worried about is Captain So Dae-seop and the rest of the crew.”

“Don’t worry about that. The Habukpangga and the Red Blood Tigers will be fine.”

“Really, my lord?”

“Don’t you trust me, Chief Sim?”

Hanbin tilted his upper body and looked at Shim Miho.

Sim Mi-ho avoided answering and glanced up at the ceiling.

Whenever I say this, there are many situations where my life is strangely hanging in the balance.

Sim Mi-ho’s heart started to beat slightly.

Even though he had been on a life-or-death mission with Hanbin, the experience did not dull his fears.

Sim Mi-ho looked at Han Bin quietly.

“… … .”

“This is too bad, ugh.”

When Hanbin tasted something, Sim Miho was surprised and quickly answered.

“Then I’ll wait without worry. We’re almost there now. This upper area is the passage leading to the back of the main building.”

Simmiho pointed upward.

Hanbin, who had checked the top, turned his gaze back to check the members of the Red Blood Tiger Squad.

They were following at regular intervals, carrying chests on their backs.

Hanbin nodded his head as if satisfied.

“Thank you for coming all the way here. We’ll just wait here for a moment.”

As Hanbin smiled, Sim Miho looked behind her and gestured.

The Red Tigers, who had been following behind at a distance, stopped.

The Red Tigers stopped in their tracks and held up torches.

They each took their places and stuck torches into the wall.

Knock, knock.

They put the torches into the wall and quickly put down the chests they were carrying on their backs.

Thud, thud.

As we put our luggage down, the noise was so loud that the passage shook.

But the noise was soon drowned out by the shouts from above.

The Red Blood Tiger Corps members, standing in front of the chest, swallowed dry saliva like they were about to go into battle and waited for Hanbin to give instructions.

Sim Mi-ho also swallowed dry saliva.

She also had no idea what was in the chest the Red Tigers had placed down.

The chest they put down was an object brought from the Cheonri Pyoguk.

The box was sealed with wax and was to be opened only when Hanbin instructed.

One of the soldiers placed a box in front of Sim Mi-ho.

With this, each member of the Red Blood Tiger Corps was given a chest in front of them.

Sim Mi-ho looked at the box and her expression hardened without her knowing it.

Sim Mi-ho thought that the chest in front of him contained important items needed for this mission.

For example, poison.

Or explosives.

If not that, then something equally dangerous.

As everyone was looking at Hanbin, Seolhwa and Cheonghwa also tilted their heads and turned their gaze.

Sim Mi-ho narrowed his eyes at the sight.

When Seolhwa and Cheonghwa showed expressions of ignorance, he became certain that the contents of the chest were not ordinary items.

Sim Mi-ho glanced at his men.

The expressions on the faces of the Red Blood Tiger Squad members slowly began to crack.

Some members show emotions like, ‘I’m dead now.’

Some of the agents were looking at Hanbin and Simmiho with resentful eyes.

Then Hanbin snapped his fingers.

Exactly.

It was a signal to open the box.

In that moment, all the Red Blood Tiger Squad members bowed their backs.

Then the sound of doors opening was heard repeatedly.

Knock. Knock.

The Red Blood Tiger Corps members who opened the chest looked at their comrades standing next to them without exception.

One of them asked his colleague next to him, as if he couldn’t stand it anymore.

“What is this?”

“That’s what I’m saying. I don’t know what this is.”

The agents equally did not understand what was inside.

Then Hanbin continued speaking.

“Empty the contents inside.”

“… … .”

At those words, the Red Blood Tiger Squad members tilted their heads.

Because I couldn’t understand what he was saying.

Inside the chest were liquor, beef jerky, and clothing.

If you look at the corner of the box, there is even a leather pouch.

Sim Mi-ho took a step forward toward Han Bin.

“My lord, what is all this? Why is there alcohol in it instead of explosives?”

“Sergeant Shim, what do you mean? Why did you think there was explosives in it?”

“I was told to be careful when I received that box… … and it was even sealed with wax, so I couldn’t help but try not to misunderstand.”

“What joy is there in living? Alcohol, money, and clothes are the most important. A house is important, but you can’t put that in a box.”

“If what’s inside is alcohol and clothes, please let me know in advance.”

“Hey, if you had told me in advance, I would have tried it on and eaten it in advance.”

“ah!”

Sim Mi-ho exclaimed.

Hanbin looked at them for a moment at that sight.

They were tilting their heads as they looked inside the box.

I don’t know what to do.

Then Hanbin shouted.

“Change into new uniforms now, let’s do it!”

Finally, Hanbin’s instructions came out.

The eyes of the Red Blood Tiger Squad members, including Sim Mi-ho, sparkled.

“I will now return to my original state, Your Majesty.”

“Jeonmyeong!”

The Red Blood Tiger Squad members began to change their clothes.

Red uniforms are added one by one under the torch.

The uniform in the box was the same red uniform as Hanbin.

The Red Blood Tiger Corps members, who had just changed into their red uniforms, looked at each other.

Sim Mi-ho also changed into a red martial arts uniform in the blink of an eye and stood next to Han Bin.

As all the Red Blood Tiger members changed into their uniforms, Hanbin shouted.

“We will show the power of our Red Blood Tigers at the Mugajihoe. No more singing!”

“… … .”

As Hanbin said, they answered silently with their eyes.

Sim Mi-ho also clenched her fists and her eyes sparkled.

Sim Mi-ho couldn’t control the emotions that were surging through her heart.

It was the fact that he was wearing the same red uniform as Hanbin that touched her feelings.

It was the same with other warriors.

The red uniform was Hanbin’s symbol.

But when they wore those red military uniforms, they felt like they had become one step closer to their lord, Hanbin.

Hanbin continued speaking after seeing their determined eyes.

“Let’s have a drink together before the mission begins!”

“yes?”

When Sim Mi-ho asked in surprise, Han Bin shrugged his shoulders and answered.

“There’s nothing to do while waiting. So shouldn’t we have a drink?”

“No matter what… … . But what is this leather pouch? It’s heavy.”

“Please check it out.”

“omg.”

“It’s nothing special, but I think it’s compensation for my hard work this time.”

“You can give it to me later… … .”

“You may not know it, but I could be dangerous. If I die, who will compensate the Red Blood Tigers?”

“Oh, my lord! Why do you say such things?”

Sim Mi-ho opened her eyes wide in surprise.

Some of the Red Blood Tiger Corps members who were drinking were so surprised that they spit out their drinks.

At that sight, Hanbin continued speaking.

“Well, there’s another meaning to it. I need to spend this money. It’s telling me to survive. I’ve put a lot of money in, so survive at the risk of your life.”

As Hanbin smiled, Sim Miho tilted her head.

Because there was something strange about what he said.

But no one interrupted Hanbin’s words.

The gazes directed at Hanbin only became moist.

Hanbin’s serious expression.

And the expressions of the Red Tigers, as if they were ready to jump into hell.

Their expressions heated up the underground passage.

Seolhwa, who was looking at them, opened her mouth wide.

It was amazing how Hanbin could liven up the atmosphere with just a little bit of money.

For a moment, Seolhwa tilted her head.

I was surprised that he thought the money was pocket change.

Seolhwa touched the night pearl in her bosom.

Seol-hwa, who confirmed the night magic, raised the corners of her lips.

If Hanbin was the richest man in the world, then he was the richest man in the world.

Seolhwa muttered to herself without realizing it.

“You must be humble. And you must be frugal.”

“What are you saying, Sister?”

When Cheonghwa asked, Seolhwa winked.

“It’s nothing. Hehe.”

Then the shouts came again from above.

Wow!

* * *

The cheers of the onlookers erupted one after another in the unarmed crowd.

“Wow!”

Right now, two warriors were engaged in a fierce battle on the stage.
