Habuk Pengga Swordsman Genius - Chapter 658

658. Flowers blooming on the seagull (4)

Cheonghwa looked at Seolhwa without saying anything.

It was like the expression of a puppy waiting for food.

Seolhwa continued speaking, smiling at that expression.

“No. I’m not sure, so I think it’s best to keep your mouth shut.”

“Hey, sis. You know I can’t do anything if I’m curious.”

Cheonghwa puffed out her cheeks with a discontented expression.

Seolhwa opened her mouth, glancing around.

“Jinmi and Sojo were talking just now. Doesn’t that gait look familiar?”

Seol-hwa pointed to the floor and pretended to spread her sword with her index and middle fingers.

Cheonghwa tilted her head as if she didn’t understand the sight.

“No matter how much I think about it, I can’t remember. Where on earth did I see you, Sister?”

“You really don’t remember?”

“Yes, I don’t remember at all.”

“Then give me the second clue.”

“The second clue? Hey, can’t you just tell me?”

“Then it’s not fun.”

“I don’t have to be fun… … .”

“Listen carefully! Not only is the gait a gait, but I’ve also heard that name somewhere.”

“This is my first time hearing the name Jinmirang.”

When Cheonghwa tilted her head, Seolhwa pointed to the sky.

And at the same time, he waved his hands.

It was almost like imitating a bird flapping its wings.

Cheonghwa tilted her head as if she still didn’t understand.

At that sight, Seolhwa quietly opened her mouth.

“Kukuku… … . You still don’t get it?”

“Oh, come to think of it!”

As Cheonghwa raised her voice, Seolhwa put her index finger to her lips.

Only then did Cheonghwa regain her composure and tilt her upper body.

Then he whispered softly.

“Could it be that those gestures and voices are referring to Cao Cao?”

“What other bird makes such a sound besides the croaking bird?”

“Then is it Haomen?”

“of course.”

When Seolhwa nodded, Cheonghwa’s eyes widened.

Cao Cao is a spirit of Haomen, and is a bird that occasionally brings news to Han Bin.

Seol-hwa was in charge of that bird, so she knew the most about Hao-mun, aside from Han-bin.

Seolhwa nodded slightly.

“Yeah, their names are the same. And just now, Jinmi and Sojo’s footsteps were similar to Baekmi and Unnie’s.”

Seolhwa nodded to Jinmirang, who was far away.

Cheonghwa turned her head reflexively.

At that sight, Seolhwa spoke in a low voice.

“Don’t look at it so blatantly.”

“Oh, I see.”

Contrary to her answer, Cheonghwa looked at Jinmi for a long time.

According to the story, Jinmirang is from Haomun.

In some ways, the name Mirang could be evidence of that.

From Baek Mi-rang to Geum Mi-rang, all the heads of Haomun branches use the name ‘Mi-rang’.

Cheonghwa rested her chin on her hand and continued her reasoning for a while.

Because not all questions have been answered.

Haomen is an organization made up of lower class people.

It was hard to believe that a descendant of the Guangdong Jin family, which had considerable influence in Guangdong, was a member of the Haomen.

Seolhwa smiled brightly as if she knew Cheonghwa’s true feelings.

“It’s natural for you to be curious. But you know what?”

“What?”

“The head of the Guangdong Jin family has been a woman for generations.”

“yes?”

“In the Guangdong and Hainan regions, it is not uncommon for women to take on the role of head of household.”

When Seol-hwa pointed to Guangdong Jin-ga with her chin, Cheong-hwa slowly nodded.

“I have heard that in the case of the Guangdong region, which borders the coast, many families and small families lose their lives in battles with pirates.”

“One of them is Gwangdongjin Gaya.”

“Then, is it true that Sogaju is not Sohyeop but Sojo?”

“Maybe so.”

“Then you’re saying that the people of Haomen are the Sogaju? Then the entire Guangdong Jin family is Haomen… … .”

“That’s not true. Perhaps Lady Jin’s older brother doesn’t know his younger brother’s true identity.”

“No way.”

“It was obvious from the expression on his face just now.”

Seolhwa didn’t miss Jindugae’s expression.

Cheonghwa continued speaking with a knowing expression on her face.

“So… … . What you’re saying is that it wasn’t Guangdong Jinga, but Haomen who called us to the front out of consideration.”

“I don’t think so. It seems like Haomun used the Mandarin Duck Sword to convey the message he wanted to convey. There must be another reason.”

“What other reason? Is this a real proposal?”

“Hey, no way… … . I must have smelled something. That’s why I called you, Confucius.”

“What does it smell like?”

“It smells like an incident, what could it smell like?”

“If it’s an incident… … .”

“Look at the expression on Confucius’ face. He looks quite serious.”

This time, Seolhwa pointed to Hanbin.

Cheonghwa turned her gaze and opened her eyes wide.

As the story said, Hanbin’s expression was changing from moment to moment.

At times, it seemed like he was smiling, but at other times, it seemed like he was full of worry.

Hanbin’s various expressions eventually merged into one.

It was a strange smile, half knowing but half not.

Seolhwa responded to that smile.

I quickly packed a bundle.

Just as Seolhwa was packing her bags, she heard Hanbin snapping his fingers.

Exactly!

At that sound, Seol-hwa flew away like a goblin.

Papak!

Cheonghwa followed Seolhwa, extending her hand.

“Sister, let’s go together!”

The little comrade often followed Cheonghwa at a brisk pace.

Seol-hwa, whose eyes met Han-bin’s, showed him a bundle.

“I am ready.”

Just then, a few steps away, someone called out like a parrot.

“I’m ready too!”

Seolhwa looked there reflexively.

There, Jinmi-rang was holding a bundle and smiling.

The one who was most surprised by that sight was Seolhwa.

Even though the sound of Hanbin snapping his fingers all sounded the same, the meaning was slightly different.

The internal energy contained in the fingers and the length of the sound.

There is even emotion expressed in the sound.

Seolhwa has interpreted all of this and prepared a bundle to match.

This was something only Seolhwa could do.

But when Jinmi-rang lifted the bundle as if she knew what it was, I couldn’t help but feel suspicious.

Of course, others were also surprised to see Jinmi-rang doing the same thing as Seol-hwa.

If you just look at the way he acts, you could say he’s Seol-hwa’s twin.

Seolhwa took a step forward, her eyes focused on the subject.

Jinmi-rang laughs brightly as she reads such a tale.

That smile was pure.

That was when.

Jindugae, who had arrived late, grabbed Jinmirang’s sleeve.

“I told you to stay still, so why are you here?”

“Brother, I’m the one in charge of this procession.”

“hmm.”

“I have business here.”

“I have delivered the goods to Prince Peng as you said. But what is the matter with you now?”

“You came because you had business to attend to. Right? Your Majesty.”

Jinmi turned her gaze to Hanbin.

Hanbin spoke without changing his expression at the confident Jinmi Rang’s appearance.

“I have never called you, young lady.”

“No, you just called me.”

“I have sung the story, I have never sung the young lady.”

As Hanbin spoke bluntly, Jinmi-rang’s head slowly tilted down.

“I clearly called you… … .”

Jindugae thought this was the moment and grabbed Jinmirang’s sleeve.

Seolhwa breathed a sigh of relief at the sight of them.

“phew…….”

“Why are you sighing so much?”

“For a moment, I felt like my rice bowl had been stolen.”

“Haha, you’re talking nonsense.”

“No. I really felt a sense of crisis. I am the only one who can understand exactly what the Master is saying. But Miss Jin over there… … .”

Seolhwa looked at Jinmi-rang, who was walking away as if she didn’t understand.

Hanbin chuckled at that sight.

“Stop talking nonsense and just pick up that bundle and bring it to me.”

“A bundle?”

Seol-hwa’s eyes widened as she tilted her head.

What Hanbin was pointing to was the bundle that Jinmi Rang had been carrying.

Seolhwa quickly came carrying Jinmi’s bundle.

Seol-hwa, standing in front of Han-bin, hesitated while holding the bundle.

Because I was hesitant about what to do with this bundle.

At that time, Hanbin said nonchalantly.

“Are you curious? Just try it out.”

“Is that okay?”

“It’s something I worked hard to deliver, so it’s polite to unpack it.”

“That’s the item you gave us? No matter how I look at it, it’s suspicious.”

“What’s suspicious?”

When Hanbin tilted his head, Seolhwa whispered secretly.

“Even though you are Haomen, don’t you think you know too much about Confucius?”

“Hmm, that’s true. It doesn’t seem to me like you’re hiding your intentions. Otherwise, you wouldn’t be delivering the goods while being tortured like this.”

“Are you being persecuted?”

“If you look over there, you’ll understand.”

Hanbin pointed somewhere.

There was Jinmi-rang, who was being scolded by Jindugae.

To anyone who saw them, they were just ordinary siblings.

Seolhwa put aside her doubts and opened the bundle as Hanbin had said.

Seol-hwa opened her bundle and tilted her head.

The contents inside were completely different from what he had brought.

There was only one brush in the bundle.

Seolhwa passed the brush to Hanbin.

Hanbin, who received the brush, looked closely at the brush holder and rubbed it with his hand.

As the fingers holding the pen brushed against it, the brush turned black as if it had been burned.

Seolhwa asked at that sight.

“What on earth does this mean?”

“information.”

Hanbin said briefly.

What Jinmirang passed on, or to be exact, what Haomun relayed, was only a part of the information.

The information can be completed by combining the words written on the Mandarin Duck Sword that was given to me at the beginning and the brush that was given to me now.

I wasn’t confused because I had already heard this interpretation from Baek Mi-rang.

After checking the contents, Hanbin quietly looked at the Hyangrobong Peak of Mt. Mudangsan.

The incense burner peak I saw in my dream a while ago was also standing tall in reality.

However, Seolhwa and Cheonghwa couldn’t take their eyes off the siblings Jinmi and Jindugae.

That was when.

A horn blew from ahead.

Phew!

Hanbin turned his head at the sound of the horn blowing repeatedly and nervously.

After a moment, Hanbin disappeared, leaving behind only the sound of fallen leaves.

Sasa-sak.

Following this, Seolhwa and Cheonghwa also disappeared.

The little soldier, carrying a lot of luggage, just looked at the place where they had disappeared with a disgruntled expression.

***

It was in front of Haegeomji that Hanbin appeared.

Arriving there, Hanbin could see why the place was so congested.

As expected, it was just as Hanbin had expected.

Those blocking the Haegeomji were guiding the unmanned troops to the large pavilion on the side, called Haegeomgak.

The shaman guarding the Haegeomji is forcing all the weapons to be left at the Haegeomgak.

The shaman had previously announced that only one weapon per sect needed to be entrusted to him.

But then, all of a sudden, I was asked to take charge of all the weapons!

There is no sect that would put down all its weapons so easily.

So, it was inevitable that conflicts would continue to arise.

It was understandable that I neglected other things as I was preoccupied with the ongoing bickering.

Everything was just as I remembered from my previous life.

The problem was that this situation was about ten years earlier than my previous life.

The one who is currently at odds is the Haenam faction.

Thanks to that, the area in front of Haegeomji was a mess.

The sound of the horn was caused by a dispute between the shamans of the Hae-geom-gak and the Hae-nam faction.

The situation where the Shamanist faction’s Taoists, who had come down upon hearing the signal, surrounded the Haenam faction’s warriors.

The warriors of the Haenam faction and the Taoists of the Shaman faction were in a sharp confrontation.

In fact, the Haenam faction was not in a position to compete with the Mudang faction.

But if you give in to power and back down, can you really be called a strong person?

The leader of the Haenam faction gritted his teeth as if he could not give in.

He shouted, thrusting his scabbard forward.

“I just don’t understand! This isn’t the first or second time that the Heroes’ Competition has been held. What kind of bullying is this?”

“This is the Senate’s decision. Please follow its instructions.”

“I just don’t understand. Why are you asking me to hand over all my weapons?”

There was a war of nerves between the Haenam faction and the Mudang faction, as if they would draw their swords at any moment.

That was when.

Among them, one of the beggars appeared silently.
