Habuk Pengga Swordsman Genius - Chapter 551



Only Noblemtl

551. Urgent News (2)

He squinted his eyes and stared at the letter as if he didn’t understand the story.

That would be the case, because there were only numbers and the word plum there.

When I opened another letter, it was the same there.

However, it was written as peony, not plum.

Of course, the same was true of the letters I read after that.

At this point, the little boy who had been quiet also became curious and cautiously approached Seolhwa.

The little soldier narrowed his eyes when he saw the letter.

Then I looked at Hanbin and Seochal alternately.

Cheonghwa asked after seeing that expression.

“Do you have any idea what this is?”

“that is…….”

The little prince glanced at Hanbin.

Hanbin was looking out the window as if it had nothing to do with him.

At that moment, a bird came into Hanbin’s sight as he was looking into the empty space.

The bird was Cao Cao, the spirit of Haomen.

Seol-hwa, who was standing next to Han-bin, received a warning.

Seolhwa handed the envelope to Hanbin.

“Confucius, here you are.”

“Thank you, Seolhwa.”

Hanbin quickly checked the container.

There was a meaningful phrase written on the thin bamboo tube.

[Urgent]

Hanbin frowned and quickly took out the note.

After checking the contents, Hanbin briefly recalled his recent memories.

And then he put Ilmokyoyeon into action.

In an instant, scenes intertwined with recent memories unfolded in chronological order.

Hanbin, who had been in a daze for a moment, opened his eyes.

Seolhwa looked at Hanbin with a worried expression.

“Master, are you okay? What is the content that is so… … .”

“I think it would be better to see it for yourself.”

Hanbin unfolded the note.

[Precepts – Right, Evil]

It was a short sentence, but the content was so shocking.

Seolhwa opened her eyes wide.

“What does this mean? If it’s a demonic cult, it’s a demonic cult, and if it’s a righteous cult, it’s a righteous cult. You’re telling me to be careful of both?”

“This is a little strange. Didn’t Mirang send it by mistake?”

Cheonghwa shook her head as if she didn’t understand.

Hanbin looked at Sogun at that sight.

So-gun shrugged his shoulders at Han-bin’s sudden gaze.

Hanbin continued speaking, not caring about the frightened expression on Sogun’s face.

“I guess it’s already started.”

“What do you mean, it’s starting?”

The little prince asked cautiously.

“I guess you’ll have to crossdress again. Get going!”

Hanbin snapped his fingers, pointing at So-gun.

Exactly!

Seolhwa and Cheonghwa linked arms with Sogun and took him to the next room.

A loud crashing sound echoed from the next room, and Seolhwa brought Sogun in.

The little prince became sad.

That’s understandable, because this time he cut his hair short for a perfect disguise.

Seolhwa patted Sogun’s back, who had a sad look on his face.

“It’s okay, your hair will grow back soon.”

“I wanted to wear pretty clothes like my sister… … .”

The little prince looked at Seolhwa as if he was about to cry.

Seolhwa showed her palm resolutely.

“That’ll be later!”

Seolhwa pushed Sogun in front of Hanbin.

As the little boy approached, Hanbin continued speaking.

“It looks like the Demonic Cult is going to get serious about it.”

“What does that mean?”

“Otherwise, Haomen would not have sent me a note like this.”

“Then what should I do, Confucius?”

“Don’t worry. It’s even better!”

“What do you mean?”

“You came to me on your own without me having to go out of my way to find you… … This is something to be welcomed with open arms.”

Hanbin smiled sincerely.

It was a smile that would make even a villain cry.

After that laugh, Hanbin continued speaking.

“Let’s just wait and they’ll contact us, so let’s just rest for a while.”

“Who is contacting you? Is it a member of the Demonic Cult?”

“No, from the Justice League!”

“Why am I being contacted by the Justice Alliance?”

“We’ll find out when we get there. Haomen’s information has never been wrong. The general situation is… .”

Hanbin explained what would happen next.

The gist of it was that the Justice League would hold a hero competition.

In addition, he went on to list the things they needed to prepare.

Seolhwa, who had been listening to the explanation, raised her hand in a flash.

“Do you need that many messengers?”

“The more, the better.”

“Do you need that many contracts?”

“The more, the better. This time, I might have to get some from the minions too.”

“oh!”

Seolhwa let out a scream-like exclamation.

The surprise was short-lived, and Seolhwa nodded.

Because there was nothing that Hanbin said that didn’t come true.

I was curious, but what Hanbin said was definitely something that would happen in the future.

The important thing now is to prepare as Hanbin said.

Seolhwa, who was about to quickly go out, tilted her head and looked at Sogun.

The little boy asked in a voice that was crawling into his gaze.

“Why are you like that, Sister?”

“I thought you knew about the identity of that letter earlier?”

What the story was referring to was a letter left behind by Confucian scholars.

The letter was said by this soldier.

“This is the dowry of Confucius written on it… … .”

“A married couple? What do you mean?”

“The one written in front is the date of birth, and the one written behind is a flower. The one with the flower is to describe the appearance by resembling that flower. For example, the plum blossom is a woman who resembles a plum blossom, and the one written as orchid means that she is slender like an orchid. In short, it seems like this is a letter to test the other person’s intentions before sending a falcon.”

“What the heck… … .”

Seolhwa looked at Hanbin, trailing off.

This was a letter sent to each other so as not to offend each other.

Since your name isn’t mentioned, you can maintain your pride even if the other person rejects you.

And if you agree, you can send a hawk since it means you are acknowledging the opposing family.

Hanbin had a vague idea of ​​the letter.

It was a welcome thing that the noble families were trying to tie him up with through marriage.

But the important thing is that now is not the time.

Hanbin said to Seolhwa.

“Burry up that letter!”

“yes?”

“It will be easier for us if we bury it before Father sees it.”

“Hehe, I got it.”

Seolhwa took the letter.

The reason why this letter is bothering me is because of the head of the household, Pengangwei.

What would happen if Gaju Pengangwi saw this letter?

It was clear that there would be chaos.

In fact, the martial arts world prefers marriages between martial artists and prestigious families that produce high-ranking officials rather than marriages between martial artists.

That’s because of the proverb that says not to put all your eggs in one basket.

What if the house where the high-ranking officials are holding out is the wife’s family, even if an unimaginable disaster strikes the world of martial arts?

It’s not a big deal to avoid that bloodshed.

The families of the scholars who sent this letter included Yang Seok-bong, Choi Yu-ji, and Hong Geum-ho, all of whom are currently enjoying real power.

It was obvious that upon seeing this letter, a council of elders would be called to decide on Hanbin’s marriage partner.

When that kind of situation happened, Hanbin had to suffer every day.

That was when.

Seolhwa, who had taken all the letters, spoke with strength in her eyes.

“Don’t worry, Master. We will prevent any trouble from happening in the future.”

“I will also lend a helping hand, Your Majesty.”

Cheonghwa also clenched his fist.

Hanbin tilted his head at their appearance.

Because I felt like I misunderstood something.

Just as Hanbin was about to explain again, Seolhwa and Cheonghwa disappeared, making the sound of fallen leaves crunching.

Sasa sak.

Of course, So-gun also disappeared, led by the two’s hands.

* * *

The next afternoon.

The elders and vassals gathered at the Habukpengga clan’s house were in an uproar again.

“What on earth is going on?”

“That’s right.”

The leaders squinted their eyes and looked over the contents of the letter several times.

Only the time and location of the hero competition were listed there.

The place is Mt. Mudangsan.

And the event was held exactly two months later.

It was an unexpected hero competition on a tight schedule.

It hasn’t even been half a year since the end of the Mugajihoe, a gathering of martial arts masters, and now there’s a hero competition!

There was also a place called Mt. Mudangsan that was somewhat strange.

The martial arts competitions usually held by the Justice League were held in Seoan.

This is because the headquarters of the Hwasanpa, Jongnampa, and Jeonguimaeng were located in Seoan.

Peng Gang-wi, sitting on the throne, looked at Peng Dae-wi, the head of the court, with his chin resting on his hand.

“What does your brother think?”

“What are you worried about? You can just go and check it out.”

“I like it when things are simple, my younger brother.”

“What you just said. Was it by any chance… … a compliment?”

The scar left on Pang Daewi’s face shook slightly.

The expression on his face was clearly one of anticipation.

“That’s a compliment, little brother.”

Peng Kang-wi released the hand that was resting his chin on and stood up from his seat.

He came down from the throne and looked around quietly.

“The Heroes’ Tournament and the Shamanist faction… … What do you think their intentions are?”

I didn’t specifically ask anyone.

The leaders who were asked the question looked at each other.

That would be the case, because the current world of martial arts was as calm as a plain swept by a storm.

It was a good time to hold a hero tournament when the storm was brewing.

But it’s being held after the storm has passed?

That didn’t make sense.

The problem was that we couldn’t even guess what the cause was.

At that moment, the chief of staff of Jujakgak took a cautious step forward.

Peng Kang-wi said at that sight.

“Gakigun Footnote, do you have anything to say?”

“I think it would be a good idea to call the Four Princes.”

“You’re calling the youngest?”

“It is a hero competition that is held after a great storm has passed. And isn’t it true that the center of that storm was Sa Gong-ja? If it is such an important matter, it would be better to ask Sa Gong-ja for his opinion.”

“Oh, that sounds good. As expected, Gagi-gun is smart.”

The hostess nodded as if agreeing.

* * *

It was in the blink of an eye that Hanbin arrived at Gajujeon.

Hanbin, who arrived, first checked the letter.

Hanbin’s eyes deepened as he read the letter.

Peng Kang-wi asked at that sight.

“Have you read between the lines?”

“No. There is no hidden meaning in the letter.”

“But why do you have such worried eyes?”

“Think back to the time right after the last Heroes’ Tournament.”

Hanbin paused for a moment.

There was no one to interfere.

Peng Kang-wi nodded and urged Han Bin to continue his explanation.

Hanbin nodded at that sight and continued speaking.

“After the Hero Tournament was held, a big incident occurred in the martial arts world. Isn’t that something everyone knows?”

At that moment, the hostess made a noise.

Peng Kang-wi nodded at that sight.

It gave me a voice.

The hostess who was given the chance to speak said.

“Your Majesty, I apologize for interrupting you, but I think the order of things has changed. Isn’t it because it seems like a major event in the martial arts world is about to happen that we’ve opened the Hero Tournament?”

“That may be so, but it may not be so. The Hero Tournament may have made things worse. Just look at the conflict with Sapa ten years ago… … .”

Hanbin continued speaking logically.

Everyone nodded to Hanbin’s opinion.

The gist of what Hanbin said was simple.

All conflicts are about interaction.

It means that even clapping your hands makes a sound.

As Hanbin continued his explanation, the expressions on the heads of the family, including the head of the household, gradually darkened.

Just listening to Hanbin’s explanation, it sounded like there was a force driving the interaction.

In fact, if someone other than Hanbin had expressed this opinion, everyone would have clearly thought it was nonsense.
