Habuk Pengga Swordsman Genius - Chapter 589
Only Noblemtl
589. I believe in you (4)
Kagi-gun, waiting for an answer, looked at Hanbin.
His expression was more serious than ever.
Even more so than when I was training at Cheonsujang.
He looked even more nervous than when he faced Dokgakseo.
The other people who were watching the conversation between the three footnotes and Hanbin also had similar looks.
I thought they were giving the footnotes some strange training, but now I see that there was a good reason for it.
The Blue Cloud Envoy and the Red Dragon Swordsman?
If there was an enemy worthy of that reputation, it would not have been strange for a master of the Hwagyeong to appear anywhere and at any time.
In that case, the probability of 30% that Hanbin mentioned earlier could have been a big estimate.
The one who knew the situation better than anyone was Gagigun, who was in charge of information and had been fighting a war of wits with numerous families and clans.
Gagi-gun swallowed dry saliva and quietly observed Hanbin’s expression.
Seolhwa and Cheonghwa, who were watching the situation, also craned their necks as if they were curious.
Hanbin spoke nonchalantly despite everyone’s heated gaze.
“The basic direction is correct.”
As Hanbin nodded, Gagi-gun continued speaking with a questioning expression.
“okay.”
“But Ga has a few more missions to do.”
“I have a secret… … .”
Gagi-gun trailed off and looked around.
Hanbin smiled at that sight.
“Yes, it is a secret mission. Isn’t that right for the Pangga’s Jujak-gakju? Jujak-gakju would be suitable for a mission that requires using your head. And Hyeonmu-gakju would be suitable for a mission that requires using martial arts. Of course, Jo-hyang-gakju would be suitable for cooking as a specialty. Look at the back of the map.”
“Behind the map?”
Kagi-gun tilted his head and turned over the map in his hand.
Then he opened his eyes wide.
As Hanbin said, his mission was written on the map.
Gagi-gun, his eyes narrowed, began to memorize the map.
It didn’t take long.
Gagi-gun handed the map to Hanbin with a determined expression.
This time too, the map that fell into Hyeonmun’s hands was instantly reduced to ashes.
The process of awarding missions is now complete.
Hanbin winked at Peng Hyukbin.
Peng Hyuk-bin shouted after receiving the signal.
“Everyone, fill your glasses!”
Everyone’s hands moved busily at his words.
Okay. Okay.
They lifted their glasses as if they were wielding swords.
They waited for Grand Duke Peng Hebin to speak, holding their glasses under the hot sun.
Peng Hyuk-bin shouted in a deep voice.
“Strong!”
“The Most High!”
Everyone united and shouted out in unison.
Peng Hyuk-bin shouted again.
“Panga!”
“invincibility!”
After they finished speaking, they emptied their glasses as if they had made a promise.
Now their inauguration ceremony is over.
Although it was outside the family, it was to maintain courtesy towards the three lords who had risked their lives on the mission.
Gagi-gun, who had finished drinking, quietly looked at Hanbin.
Hanbin asked at that gaze.
“Do you have any questions?”
“There’s something I’ve been wondering about ever since I received the bundle.”
“What is that?”
“Wasn’t the color of the bundle random?”
“This is a secret, but I will tell you this only to the Master. Just for a moment… … .”
When Hanbin nodded, Gagigun tilted his upper body.
Hanbin whispered as Kagigun’s eyes sparkled with curiosity.
“Hyeonmu-gakju originally liked the color red.”
“yes?”
“Didn’t you know?”
“I didn’t know. How did you know something that even I, the master of the four pillars, didn’t know?”
“Well, I’m interested.”
“You mean you’re interested… …. You’ve been watching us the whole time?”
“That’s true too. But why is your expression… … .”
“It’s because it feels like I’m jumping in the palm of Buddha’s hand.”
“Now it is the turn of the Master of the House to open his palm.”
“Oh, I understand.”
The eyes of the master of the Jujak Footprint lit up.
He thought he knew everything about his family.
I used to think I had the strengths and weaknesses of everyone in my family at my fingertips.
But that seemed to be his own conceit.
It gave me goosebumps to think that the Four Princes knew all these facts that even I didn’t know.
After making him grab the blue bundle.
Of course, the Black Tortoise will grab the red bundle.
Of course, the remaining white bundle was designed to go back to the steering wheel owner!
What if the non-random private sector had distributed the tasks arbitrarily?
Perhaps he would not have accepted it like this.
Since it is a mission related to the bundle they chose, neither the Black Tortoise Lord nor the Direction Lord can say anything.
Since the tasks were divided like this, no complaints could arise.
How could one object to a mission one has chosen by one’s own luck!
Gagigun raised his head and asked with a serious expression.
“Why are you telling me everything?”
“Because the master of divination has to know everything.”
“… … .”
Gagigun couldn’t say anything.
Hanbin was now establishing the prestige of the main character he was in charge of.
For a moment, Hanbin was watching Gagi-gun, who suddenly grabbed the ball.
“Thank you, Your Majesty.”
“you’re welcome.”
Hanbin waved his hand.
The last one to do so was to leave the place.
The mission requires speed.
He knew better than anyone that even the eighteen steps of begging were not given for free, so he gritted his teeth and increased his speed.
He knew that in order to complete his mission, he had to go through all the troubles of his life.
The remaining footnotes also moved away from the matrix one by one.
The Red Blood Tigers’ members nodded silently as they walked away.
As if he knew their minds.
On the one hand, their expressions were also pious.
That was when.
Hyunmun, who had been quietly watching the situation like an onlooker, quickly approached Hanbin.
“Hmm, I’m saying this because I feel like everyone is missing something… … .”
“What do you mean?”
“There is one thing I don’t understand.”
“Please feel free to ask, sir.”
“If they roam the rivers and lakes along the path dressed like this, will the enemies even notice?”
“You don’t have to worry about that. I’ve already noticed it.”
“What does that mean? How can the enemy be watching us? Isn’t that why we came through the Churyong Mountains to avoid it? Peng Gongzi.”
Hyunmun tilted his head and asked questions.
Of course, others made similar expressions.
In retrospect, Hyunmun’s question was valid.
Suddenly attracting Kangho’s attention was impossible even if Hyunmu-gakju, Jujak-gakju, and Johyang-gakju tried hard.
Of course, if you disguise yourself as the heroes of martial arts, such as Jeokryong Daehyeop and Cheongunsashin, you will attract attention, but that also takes time.
If you say that it is an operation that is being carried out with a long-term perspective, then it is understandable.
But all of this had to happen before the procession here reached the shaman.
Hanbin spoke nonchalantly at the serious expression on Hyunmun’s face.
“Didn’t you just fly a messenger earlier?”
“I did fly a warship, but what does that matter?”
“The movement paths of the Cheongunsashin and Jeokryongdaehyeop are marked there.”
“Why is it there… … .”
“If you want to attract attention, you have to make that much noise.”
“So you’re saying that you gambled with the lives of the three men?”
“To be exact, including our lives.”
“hmm.”
“It’s a matter of saving the world. How can there be negligence in that?”
Hanbin looked at everyone with a serious expression.
Those whose eyes met each other bowed their heads slightly with solemn expressions.
Of course, Hanbin’s words were only half sincere.
In Hanbin’s mind, the goal of saving Kangho was an afterthought.
Rather than the peace of the world, I had a stronger desire to erase the human who was trying to hit me in the back of the head.
Anyway, the enemy’s identity was already known at Yulim Seowon.
Their name is Baekgyeong.
It was obvious that they would dig a trap and wait for the shaman.
Clash with them head-on with martial arts?
It’s like throwing eggs into the air without thinking in a training ground.
Isn’t it impossible for an egg that falls on a stone floor to remain unharmed?
Until we reached Mt. Wudang, we had to prepare a means of defending against their attacks and a weapon to put on their necks.
One means of defense has already been obtained.
Samhwangcho was that thing.
Hanbin quietly touched the silver bead around his neck.
* * *
That evening.
The upper reaches of the Changcheon River, a waterway that runs across Shaanxi and Hubei.
It was a famous tourist destination because a spectacular view unfolded just by turning your head.
Here you can see Mt. Wudang, a famous Taoist site and one of the pillars of the Gupaebang.
Since a lot of fish were caught there, it was quite famous as a fishing area.
Of course, the upper reaches were a place avoided by both fishermen and the general public because the current was quite strong.
There was a white boat floating upstream.
Even in the face of the rushing water, the boat just stayed where it was.
The sight of a boat floating in the middle of the river, unaffected by the current, without even dropping anchor or rowing, was like a scene from a painting.
Fishermen passing by all gave it a glance as if it was going against the laws of nature.
There too, for a moment, they quickly rowed away as if they had seen a ghost.
Because the current was not visible around the white boat.
There has been a rumor going around among fishermen lately that a ghost ship has been seen.
A dead person is called a ghost, and a sunken ship is called a ghost ship.
The Gwiseon was a boat that floated on this earth to pick up the remaining people because there were not enough people to cross the Samdocheon River.
Of course, this was a legend circulating among fishermen.
Is there any other ship that can avoid the current other than the Guishan?
It was no wonder the fishermen were scared.
Meanwhile, on the boat, a man was savoring the scent of tea while watching the fishermen moving away.
A woman in white attire approached the man.
The woman was wearing a rabbit mask.
The woman in the rabbit mask handed the man a letter.
“The news has arrived.”
“Thank you for your hard work.”
The man tore up the letter.
Then he turned the letter upside down and laid it on a white table.
Knock. Knock.
Inside the envelope were dozens of small notes.
The man began to look through the notes one by one.
The man who was looking at the note yawned as if he was bored.
“As expected, there’s no news. Once the shaman’s work is over, there won’t be anything to do for a while.”
“You must prepare a cause, sir.”
The woman nodded slightly.
The man shook his head as he looked at the woman.
“Stop taking off your mask. There’s no need to wear it all the way here, feeling stuffy.”
“No. I have to do this so that I can stand out.”
The woman smiled.
Although her smile was not visible because of the mask, the movements of her body language suggested that she was smiling brightly.
This was the background that Hanbin had once encountered.
It was the name of the tribe and also the name of this ship.
The man was Baek, the owner of this ship.
And the rabbit mask was a master who fought with Hanbin.
Her name is Choa.
The reason Choa doesn’t take off her rabbit mask is because she wants to stand out, as she said.
All those who rode the Baekgyeong were handsome men and beautiful women.
Even if you just pick one person out and call them out, they have an appearance that would make them stand out in the world of martial arts.
