Only Noblemtl
747. Smooth Sailing (5)
As the sulfur aura gradually faded, Akbigwang opened his eyes.
Akbigwang opened his eyes and was shocked to the point of fainting.
“Ma, Ma-hyung! What the heck is going on?”
“hmm.”
Ma Won-do slowly opened his eyes to the chaos of Akbigwang.
Ma-won opened his eyes and they grew as big as a full moon.
“Evil coup!”
“Brother Ma!”
The two raised their index fingers and pointed at each other.
After a moment, Akbi-kwang quickly turned his head away.
It was as if he had seen something he shouldn’t have seen.
That would be the case, Ma-won was not wearing a single thread.
Akbi Kwang tilted his head and then touched his own body.
Not only Ma-won, but he too was naked.
Akbigwang muttered to himself without realizing it.
“By any chance, brother… … .”
“That’s not it.”
As Ma-won shook his head, Ak-bi-gwang continued speaking.
“If it’s you, my brother, I can joke around with you.”
“But look at the floor.”
“What do you mean? The floor?”
Akbigwang, who had been bowing his head, opened his eyes wide.
On the floor was a melted piece of cloth that appeared to be his uniform.
The cloth spread out on the floor, with holes here and there, with the weakest threads coming loose.
Ma Won said.
“It seems to have melted because of the sulfur. The energy of yin and yang is important, but it turned out like that because it could not accept it.”
“Huh, then brother… … .”
Akbigwang looked around in surprise.
When we came here, Hanbin and Baekho definitely came together.
But now that I look back, the two are nowhere to be found.
In other words, it could have disappeared in the sulfur atmosphere.
Looking to the side, I thought I could see a glimpse of the red uniform that Hanbin had been wearing.
Next to it, the white fur of a white tiger could be seen here and there.
Of course, the white fur of the white tiger was a sign of a complete transformation.
But Akbigwang couldn’t have known that.
Akbi Kwang quietly walked somewhere.
I came out of the cave.
As Akbigwang walked away weakly, Mawon asked.
“Aren’t you cold?”
“Is it a problem that it’s cold? Let’s put out the fire first.”
“What does that mean?”
“I think I should start with you, brother. Where is the incense you were burning earlier?”
Akbi Kwang came outside and looked for incense.
Ma-won shook his head at that sight.
“I think it’s a bit hasty… … .”
“No, it seems like my brother was tired and fell asleep for a moment, and then got into trouble.”
After finishing speaking, Akbi-kwang relit the incense he had just extinguished.
The evil spirit had quite a hard time lighting the wet incense.
After a long time, Akbigwang saw the burning incense and cried out softly.
“Brother, please… … !”
That was when.
Someone patted Akbigwang on the shoulder.
For a moment, a wrinkle appeared on Akbigwang’s forehead.
“Brother Ma, why do you keep bothering me… … .”
Akbigwang couldn’t continue speaking.
Because a bandit I had never seen before appeared before my eyes.
“Who, who are you?”
Akbigwang stepped back and aimed his spear.
The opponent was clearly a bandit.
From leather coats to leather shoes.
He was an ordinary bandit you might meet while escorting a convoy.
The only thing that was a little strange was that his face was clean.
Unlike the dirty bandits, his face was white and he looked just like a scholar.
The strange discrepancy troubled Akbigwang.
“Hey, little brother! Are you poisoned or something? Or did you eat something bad inside? When were you supposed to become sworn brothers? Why are you coming here now to point a spear at me?”
“Brother, are you my brother?”
“Yeah, it’s me.”
“Brother is inside… … .”
“I died twice today. But I’m glad I met a polite younger brother. Haha.”
Hanbin smiled brightly and blew out the incense again.
Ma-won, who was watching this scene from the side, laughed in disbelief and then turned his head away.
For a moment, Hanbin narrowed his eyes.
“Evil madness!”
“Yes, brother. Why are you doing that?”
“Do you know what mistake you just made?”
“A mistake?”
“You thought I was dead.”
“If you came back alive, that’s fine. Why would that be a mistake?”
“Why are you so sure it’s me?”
After finishing speaking, Hanbin placed Manwol against Akbigwang’s neck.
At that moment, Akbigwang said.
“That, that dagger is the evidence.”
“Yes, this dagger could be evidence. But you know, I didn’t show you this dagger at first. So how did you know?”
“that…….”
Akbigwang couldn’t speak.
The reason Hanbin is pointing out Akbi Kwang now is not because he mistook Hanbin’s death.
The question was whether there was any credible evidence to support the sudden appearance of a suspicious person.
Akbigwang also knew that it was meant to teach a lesson: never show your weaknesses to anyone.
Hanbin continued speaking.
“Don’t forget who we’re fighting. It could be you or me in the blink of an eye. It was like that in Sacheondangga and it was like that in Mudeungsan. So don’t trust easily.”
“Okay, I get it. But it’s a little suspicious when you say it so seriously.”
“Yeah, I like this attitude of being suspicious until the end!”
“ah.”
The evil spirit opened his mouth.
After finishing speaking, Hanbin quietly turned his gaze to Mawon.
Ma-won, who was receiving attention, instinctively nodded his head.
Because he knew that what Hanbin had just said was advice directed at him.
Ma-won quietly bowed his head toward Han-bin.
Hanbin also bowed his head.
The reason Hanbin gave this advice was simple.
Ma-won will probably return to the Demonic Cult with So-gun.
It was highly likely that some of the forces currently controlling the Demonic Cult were external forces.
Just like the Baek forces that took control of Mt. Mudeung.
Now that I think about it, I wonder if the previous life’s Jeongma War was also played around by someone from beginning to end.
then?
The role of the magician will increase.
There was an awkward silence for a moment.
A strange sound was heard from afar.
Sweep. Sweep.
At that sound, Akbigwang turned his head.
When I turned my head, Baekho was dragging something.
Upon closer inspection, I realized that it was leather.
Baekho dragged the skin in front of Hanbin.
Akbi-kwang, who had seen the leather, looked back and forth between the leather and Hanbin’s clothes.
Anyone who saw it saw that the leather was exactly the same as Hanbin’s clothes.
Ma Won also opened his eyes wide in surprise.
Hanbin stroked Baekho’s head nonchalantly.
“Swan, you’ve worked hard.”
Hmm.
Baekho wagged his tail and stuck next to Hanbin.
Hanbin snickered, took something out of his bosom, and threw it at Baekho.
Whoosh!
At that moment, Baekho ran and caught the object that Hanbin threw.
Akbigwang asked at that sight.
“What is that?”
“Want some for you too?”
After finishing speaking, Hanbin took out a yellow piece from his pocket.
At that sight, Akbigwang hesitated and stepped back.
What Hanbin took out was the dried radish greens he had brought from Cheonsujang.
It was the very same radish that was said to have been in the possession of the polar opposite.
It was one of those foods that Akbigwang absolutely could not swallow.
I tried to eat it a few times, but every time I couldn’t hold it in and had to spit it out.
Akbigwang said as if it was absurd.
“Swans like that?”
“I like it. Unlike others, I know for sure that it’s good for your health.”
“hmm”
As Akbi Kwang avoided eye contact, Hanbin pointed to the leather.
“You’ll need this when you hit the road.”
“What is this?”
“What are those clothes?”
As Hanbin shook off his clothes, Akbigwang asked.
“Surely this leather… … .”
“The clothes I’m wearing now are made from the skin of a Cheonsan Blood Wolf. This one is no different. Of course, it’s not free.”
“Now, wait a minute. Are you going to charge me for this too?”
“It looks empty at first glance, so let’s just hang it up.”
“Oh, brother.”
Hanbin turned his head as Akbi Gwang looked at him with amazement.
Hanbin smiled brightly and spoke to Mawon as well.
“Of course, Brother Ma won’t give it to you for free. I’ll just hang it up.”
“Yes, please do so.”
Ma-won smiled awkwardly.
***
The place Hanbin headed to was the river right below Gwisan.
Hanbin, who went to the river, looked around.
Akbigwang narrowed his eyes at the sight.
The reason I came here was simple.
Hanbin, who had been through so much in a short period of time, suggested that they take it easy this time.
As Hanbin said, they have been through so much.
In addition, Akbi Kwang and Ma Won had now completely cleansed their blood vessels.
It was right to rest for a few days.
If you move too hard or exercise too hastily now, your clean blood vessels will be contaminated with turbid air.
It was best not to overdo it for a few days.
Of course, everything was Hanbin’s explanation.
But instead of slowly following the group along the mountain path, he suddenly came to the river.
It was also Hanbin who guided us here.
Akbi Kwang couldn’t understand this situation.
“Why did you come here, brother?”
“I’m going to get a ride on a boat.”
Hanbin answered briefly as if it was obvious.
At this point, Akbigwang felt like he was going to explode.
No matter how much I looked, I couldn’t feel any signs of people around me.
“Brother, a ship? No matter how much I look at it, I can’t see anything that looks like a ship.”
“Au, do you know what the special thing about this place is?”
“How can I know the characteristics of a river I don’t even know the name of?”
“There’s a ghost mountain in the back.”
“That’s right. Why do you keep saying the obvious?”
“We should assume that there is no traffic passing through Guisan.”
“Yes.”
Akbi Kwang looked at Hanbin with eyes full of suspicion.
Hanbin chuckled for a moment and continued speaking nonchalantly.
“So most merchants use this river.”
“So you’re saying you’re going to get on a merchant ship? No matter how much I look, I can’t see any merchants. And there’s no ferry either.”
“Of course. As the river water gets colder, the number of merchants using the sea route also decreases.”
“Oh, but why are you here?”
“If there are a lot of merchants, there will naturally be a lot of thieves.”
“Thieves?”
“Yeah. Numbers!”
“Why the numbers?”
“The fastest ship among ships is the speedboat piloted by the pirates.”
Hanbin finished speaking and smiled sinisterly.
Akbi-kwang pounded his chest.
“No, if there are no merchants, the pirates would have disappeared too. How can we get on the pirates’ ship that doesn’t exist?”
“Actually, even though it’s the time for the pirates to rest, they don’t go far from the river. Follow me.”
After finishing speaking, Hanbin disappeared, leaving only the sound of fallen leaves behind.
Sasa Sak.
At that moment, the white tiger moved slowly.
Then a voice was heard from afar.
“Don’t push yourself too hard and follow the swan.”
At that sound, Akbigwang sighed.
“phew.”
Akbigwang followed the swan slowly.
Strangely enough, the swan followed Hanbin’s trail precisely by smell alone.
The distance that the swan guided was exactly half an hour.
After half an hour, Baekho stood in front of a small rock.
The white tiger jumped up and climbed onto the rock.
The evil spirit flew and stood on the rock.
At that moment, Akbigwang opened his eyes wide.
Ahead was an unexpected village.
The village was attached to the river, but geographically it was not visible from outside.
Akbigwang immediately realized that this was a den of bandits.
As expected.
Those who appeared to be in numbers slowly approached, perhaps noticing the presence of the Akbigwang party.
Akbi Kwang quietly turned his head and looked at Ma Won.
“Brother Ma! Get ready. Brother Ma told me not to push myself too hard, but it looks like it can’t be helped.”
“Ugh, I guess there’s no choice.”
Ma Won-do also grabbed the window.
That was when.
Baekho grabbed Akbigwang’s trouser leg and pulled.
“what’s the matter?”
Hmm.
Baekho shook his head vigorously.
That was when.
One of the men spoke to me.
“I will serve you.”
Both his speech and his actions were polite.
Akbigwang opened his mouth wide when he saw the number of people’s faces.
Because the waterman’s face was swollen.
His face was so pitiful that even a madman would feel sorry for him.
Akbigwang asked without realizing it, looking at his ominous face.
“What on earth happened?”
