Habuk Pengga Swordsman Genius - Chapter 601
Only Noblemtl
601. Blood after (1)
Ja-cheong’s eyes, looking at Seol-hwa, were trembling incessantly behind the rabbit mask.
There was a feeling of fear, but more than that, the feeling of absurdity was greater.
I never dreamed that I would be treated like this.
Are Baek Kyung’s martial arts skills that easy to master?
Although he was the youngest of Baekgyeong, he was a respectable warrior who received the hornpipe, the symbol of the organization.
But how can you be defeated by your opponent so easily?
Ja-cheong could not have imagined the current situation.
Seolhwa tilted her head at the sight of Ja-cheong looking flustered.
Seolhwa, who had been watching for a while, smiled and continued speaking.
“You haven’t come to your senses yet. Our Confucius said that the rule is that prisoners should only answer questions that are asked. If a prisoner doesn’t answer questions, he told you to do this.”
“what…….”
I couldn’t finish my speech.
Because Seolhwa threw a handful of dirt.
Papak.
The dirt that Seolhwa poured in also entered Ja-cheong’s mouth.
Ja-cheong instinctively spat out the dirt that was entering his mouth.
“pooh.”
Seolhwa paid no attention and poured out the dirt.
Gulp.
The dirt that had been thrown over Ja-cheong’s head flowed down his face.
Ja-cheong had no choice but to keep his mouth shut.
Then, I had no choice but to wait for the opponent’s hand to stop.
At this point, Ja-cheong began to have doubts about his opponent’s identity.
Who is the opponent that knows Baek Kyung’s true identity?
Could it be the remnants of the White Dragon that escaped into the Baekdokmun?
Ja-cheong shook his head.
There was no way that the people I saw before my eyes were part of the White Dragon.
Even though Baekryong was an enemy, he had some dignity.
However, the person in front of me had no dignity at all.
The opponent was most likely a safaris.
If not, there was a slight possibility that he was a member of the Demonic Cult.
In any case, it was impossible to think of the opponent as a political figure.
Otherwise, it couldn’t have been this evil.
The man named Confucius, who was smiling happily with his arms crossed next to him, looked more evil than the person who was throwing dirt on his head.
They say that Baek Kyung is an organization without blood or tears!
Compared to that human, you could say it’s just a drop in the bucket.
Baek Kyung at least had some courtesy towards the dead.
In comparison, they were people who would even insult the dead.
Only when the dirt reached the nape of Ja-cheong’s neck did Seol-hwa stop her hands.
“That’s enough. By the way, our Confucius said this. If the enemy resists, bury him immediately.”
“ah.”
Ja-cheong could only exclaim in admiration.
It felt like anything I said here would be immediately buried.
At that moment, Seolhwa tilted her head and leaned her upper body.
Seolhwa, who had been looking into Jacheong’s eyes for a long time, continued speaking.
“By the way, what was it that you were curious about earlier?”
“uh…….”
Ja-cheong couldn’t continue speaking. Wasn’t he buried up to his neck in the mud for asking a question?
But when asked what he was curious about, Jacheong seemed at a loss as to which rhythm to follow.
Seol-hwa asked after seeing Ja-cheong’s expression.
“I’m just curious all of a sudden. Just ask me so I won’t bury it, Rabbit Mask Sister.”
“Is it true that you said you wouldn’t bury it?”
“Yes. I’ve never lied before.”
“You’re really not going to bury it, are you?”
“Why can’t you trust what people say, Rabbit Mask Sister?”
“Then I’ll believe you and ask. How on earth did you know we were coming?”
“Our Confucius said that there are no unexpected events or changes. This is something that could have been expected… … .”
“How on earth did you know that?”
“If you fart a lot, your poop will be… … .”
Seolhwa, who was about to continue speaking, quickly covered her mouth and looked at Hanbin.
Then he continued speaking with a grin.
“Because our Confucius knows the secrets of heaven.”
Seolhwa looked at Hanbin, who was holding her arms crossed behind her, with a proud expression.
Hanbin’s eyes sparkled briefly and then stopped.
Seolhwa swallowed a sigh of relief and looked at the other person again.
“Then I will ask you some questions now, so please answer.”
After finishing speaking, Seolhwa took out the scroll and unfolded it.
Then I looked it up and down.
At that sight, Jacheong asked.
“What on earth is that?”
“This is a statement I got from my sister who wore the other rabbit mask. If there’s anything different from what’s here, I’ll bury it right away. Of course, I’ll have to go to the hole where my sister who made the statement is and finish it off. Well, what’s falling on my head might not be dirt, but boiling oil.”
“oil…….”
“If you bury it in a hole and pour boiling oil over it, there is no meat tastier for wild animals.”
“Are you members of the Demonic Cult?”
This was the truth.
Judging from the fact that he made such a threat without any hesitation, it was highly likely that he was a member of the Demonic Cult rather than a Sapain.
Now it’s not about predicting, it’s about concluding.
Seolhwa answered the trembling voice of Ja-cheong.
“That’s a secret.”
Seolhwa finished speaking and smiled faintly.
Of course, the fact that Seolhwa was talking a lot today was all because of Hanbin’s order.
I had to completely destroy the other person’s emotional state.
Seolhwa held a scroll in one hand and a blood-curdling sword in the other, her eyes sparkling.
At that moment, Ja-cheong instinctively knew that it was not a lie.
The way he held the dagger and the look in his eyes were both those of someone who had killed someone.
Ja-cheong swallowed hard and waited for Seol-hwa to speak next.
Seolhwa didn’t ask right away, but checked the scroll with a serious expression.
That look was more serious than I thought.
The way his eyes moved busily up and down seemed to indicate that he was contemplating what question to ask first.
As he was observing the scene, Jacheong had to seriously consider the authenticity of the scroll.
The reason he was captured by his opponent was because his martial arts skills were low.
There was no other colleague besides himself who could be captured so easily.
But what if what the other person said is true?
Ja-cheong narrowed his eyes even further.
In fact, it was a conversation about nothing, but I was thinking that this whole thing was some kind of advanced psychological warfare.
He thought the enemy was fabricating a lie to extract a confession from him.
At the same time, goosebumps appeared on Ja-cheong’s back.
If there really were any comrades who had been captured first, the chances of getting out of here alive were slim.
Then Seolhwa continued speaking.
“Sister Rabbit Mask, I’ll take off your mask for now.”
After finishing speaking, Seolhwa stretched out his blood-curdling sword.
Whoosh.
The rabbit mask came off as a cold wind blew past Ja-cheong’s ears.
At that moment, Ja-cheong’s head shook downward.
Seeing that, Seolhwa continued speaking.
“Our Confucius said that you should remember the face of your enemy, Sister in the Rabbit Mask. Oh, now that I think about it, since you don’t have a rabbit mask, you’re just Sister. Then I’ll ask you questions now. If you answer correctly, I’ll spare your life. So… … .”
Seolhwa asked questions without stopping.
Most of the questions were about the organization of the background.
Hanbin listened to Ja-cheong’s confession with his arms crossed.
Ja-cheong continued answering cautiously, keeping an eye on the situation.
“… … That’s all I know. So just let me go.”
“wait a minute.”
Seolhwa quietly approached Hanbin.
“I think that older sister knows everything.”
“Okay, then let’s just wrap things up.”
“Yes, Your Majesty.”
Seolhwa quickly approached Jacheong.
Ja-cheong said in a trembling voice.
“Didn’t you say you’d let me go?”
“When did I say I would let you go?”
“Then what did you say just now?”
“I said I would spare you, I didn’t say I would let you go. First, this… … .”
Seolhwa put a reed in Jacheong’s mouth.
Suddenly, Jacheong was startled when a reed entered his mouth.
“What, what the heck is this?”
“This is your lifeline, so hold on to it for now. If you spit it out again, I’ll just pretend not to know.”
“What, what does that mean… … .”
At that moment, the reed entered Ja-cheong’s mouth again.
At the same time, dirt began to fall on my head again.
Ja-cheong seemed to know the purpose of the reed.
It means that you want to live, but you won’t be released.
At that moment, a scroll caught Ja-cheong’s eye.
For a moment, Ja-cheong almost dropped the reed in his mouth.
The scroll was empty.
Only then did Ja-cheong realize that everything was the other person’s play.
First of all, there were no captured colleagues.
It was clear that the other party had set up this situation in order to extract an accurate confession.
What kind of organization is it that is going against Baek Kyung… … .
Ja-cheong had to abandon his conclusion exactly one moment later.
This is because she was barely hanging on to life with a reed in her mouth when she heard the voice of her colleague in her ear.
One of the warriors in the background shouted.
“Who the hell are you guys?”
“Just stay still. This is an expensive trap. Do you know how expensive silkworms are these days? The silkworms you’ve wrapped around yourself are enough to feed an average person for ten years. If that were to break, you’d die immediately.”
“What on earth is your identity… … .”
“It’s a secret, so I can’t tell you. Seolhwa, start.”
The owner of the voice was Hanbin.
Together with Sulwha, he succeeded in luring one of Baekgyeong’s warriors into a trap.
The Baek Kyung warrior in front of Han Bin’s eyes had turned into a cocoon.
A state of being wrapped in a thousand-year-old’s clothing.
Seolhwa began to dig the ground as before.
The corners of Hanbin’s mouth slightly went up as he watched that scene.
Because it felt like I had uncovered some of the secrets of Baekgyeong that I didn’t know about.
Hanbin shouted softly.
“Quick and easy!”
“yes?”
As Seolhwa tilted her head, Hanbin continued speaking.
“I think I need to deal with it quickly.”
He meant it.
A quick decision was needed, whether to deal with the enemy or get out of here first.
One of the most surprising findings to date is that the Moby Dick isn’t just one ship.
The leader that Hanbin faced was a person called the ship owner and captain, and it is said that he had reached the realm of a rebel.
The most eerie part was that the group that had imprisoned Jang Ja-myeong’s sister was not these people.
So that meant there was one more force here.
What if those forces were from another ship in the background?
It wasn’t a situation where I could guarantee my life.
So it was natural to retreat after completely stealing the clues and information.
* * *
After half an hour.
Hanbin crossed his arms and looked at the pit.
There were four pits in total.
The Baekgyeong warriors who had been searching for the enemy in the east, west, south, and north were all buried a few steps away.
After asking about the last warrior, Hanbin said to Seolhwa.
“Dig one more hole. I’ll be back in a bit.”
“But what about the size?”
“You can do the same thing as your friends in front of you.”
“Okay, Your Majesty.”
Seolhwa nodded and looked down at the floor.
After a moment, Seolhwa let out a sigh.
“phew.”
Seolhwa let out a long sigh and picked up the Woohyeolranggeom.
Then he asked carefully.
“Can I use the herb, Your Majesty?”
“Well, it’s the last minute, so what should I do?”
When Hanbin nodded, a color came to Seolhwa’s face.
The most difficult part for Seolhwa was none other than digging the ground.
Using a drill would allow the pit to be dug without much effort, but Hanbin demanded that no sound be heard.
To meet this standard, I had to dig the hole using pure strength rather than internal energy.
Even the blood-curdling sword that Seolhwa treasured as much as her life was now covered in dirt.
