Habuk Pengga Swordsman Genius - Chapter 763
Only Noblemtl
763. Knowing Sound (3)
It was the handwriting I had seen at the tomb of the swordsman.
What on earth happened?
The writing that Geomseon left behind is also written here.
At this point, Hanbin couldn’t hide his expression.
“What on earth happened? Is it possible that the person who left this… … .”
“Who do you think it is?”
“Aren’t you the elder of the swordsmen?”
“As expected, you know. As expected, you knew the maintenance of the swordsmanship.”
“… … .”
Hanbin glanced at the King of the Southern Sea.
Not all questions have been answered yet.
What if this scroll was obtained by discovering another swordsman’s tomb?
There was no way the King of the South Sea could not recognize Hanbin’s questioning gaze.
He said with a smile on his face.
“You don’t have to doubt me. If I had decided to kill you, I would have detonated the lightning before you got here.”
“That’s right. Then let me ask you the opposite.”
“Just ask.”
“Why do you want to kill the royal family and the martial arts people?”
Hanbin put emphasis on each and every word.
Because now it was time to get to the point.
Everything up to this point has been preparation for this conversation.
The King of the Southern Sea continued speaking after seeing Hanbin’s solemn expression.
“I have never tried to kill my relatives or martial artists.”
“What do you mean? Didn’t you move Jincheonrye to Bulkwangsa? And I heard that the royal family members were attending. And on top of that, you even kidnapped a martial artist. How do you explain all this?”
Hanbin kept asking questions without stopping.
The King of the South Sea and the Red Ghost looked at each other with strange eyes.
After exchanging glances, it was Jeokgwi who opened his mouth.
The red-haired man continued speaking, pushing his head back.
“It seems like there’s a good mix of facts and misconceptions.”
“Please explain it a little more simply.”
“That was bait.”
“What do you mean? Are you saying that the royal family members are bait?”
“Yes. And the Murim people were also bait.”
“Now, wait a minute. No matter how much I think about it, I can’t understand the word bait. What exactly are you using as bait to catch?”
“It’s bait to catch Cheon-oe-cheon.”
“Are you a genius?”
Hanbin opened his eyes wide.
It was something I had heard several times already.
Who is this Cheonwicheon they are talking about?
Are you talking about the background?
Hanbin narrowed his eyes and pointed to Jeokwi’s answer.
But it was the King of the South Sea who opened his mouth.
“I cannot acknowledge any power that surpasses the imperial family. That is why I made a plan. I will destroy the power of Cheonwicheon that spies on the Central Plains in one go.”
“So you’re saying you kidnapped a martial artist?”
“I didn’t kidnap her.”
“Then why… … .”
“I just followed along on my own.”
“You came here on your own? My older brother is among them.”
“Yes, even the great hero Dokgo Jin of the Sado League… … and the great hero Peng So-hyeop of the Habuk Peng family all volunteered to follow.”
“If you follow the trail, you can clearly smell blood. But I don’t understand why he followed it willingly.”
“Did you just say it smelled like blood?”
“Yes.”
“That can’t be. They are completely absorbed in their research, refraining from eating or drinking.”
“Did you just say it was an emergency?”
“That’s right. What kind of place do you think Bulguksa Temple is?”
“I know it’s an old temple.”
“That’s where the fifth library of the palace is.”
“If it’s the fifth library… … .”
“The secrets of the martial arts schools collected by the imperial family are stored there.”
“Are you saying that the imperial library is there?”
“Yes. We sent letters to each faction. Among them, the martial artists we met along the way came straight to Bulkwangsa Temple.”
“Then what about Jincheonrye?”
“If the martial artists gather, they will definitely come too. They are the forces of Cheonwicheon who are after the palace.”
“Is that perhaps a force from the North?”
“North? What do you mean?”
When the King of the South Sea tilted his head, Hanbin narrowed his eyes.
Hanbin seemed to know how the leader of his previous life negotiated.
The Cheonwicheon force that Hanbin knew and the Cheonwicheon force that the King of the Southern Sea spoke of were completely different organizations.
then?
Hanbin continued speaking carefully.
“Would the forces of the Central Plains have any intention of targeting the imperial palace? That’s why I told you to be a newcomer.”
“Haha. That makes sense.”
“Am I right?”
“That’s right. They are a new force. The problem is that their forces have penetrated deep into the Central Plains. This applies to all sects.”
“hmm.”
“So I made a decision.”
“What is your resolution?”
“Let’s drive out that force at once.”
“How do you drive it out?”
“It’s about gathering all the martial artists to Bulkwangsa Temple.”
“So?”
“I will find the force of heaven and earth among them.”
“How do you mean?”
“If you can’t find it, just bury it all at once.”
“Now, wait a minute. Is that what the swordsman meant?”
Hanbin, who had asked the question, unfolded the scroll.
There was not a single trace of anything related to the determination of the Heavenly King of the South Sea.
The King of the South Sea continued speaking.
“That is my decision.”
“Is the resolution of the Southern Sea Heavenly King to eliminate all the martial artists?”
“If you can’t find the rotten part, don’t you have no choice but to cut it out?”
After finishing speaking, the King of the South Sea’s eyes sparkled.
Hanbin sighed inwardly at that sight.
No matter how I looked at it, there was no madness in the eyes of the Heavenly King of the South Sea.
Now he was making a rational judgment.
“Is that any different from setting fire to a barn because there are rice weevils?”
“If you can’t catch the rice weevils, wouldn’t it be right to set fire to the barn?”
“And then what if you move next to me?”
“That can’t be true.”
“When did you first make this decision?”
“… … .”
The King of the South Sea tilted his head.
At that moment, Hanbin felt a strange energy in his eyes.
Hanbin seemed to know the identity of those eyes.
Then the red ghost answered instead.
“It’s been about a month.”
“Now, wait a minute. Are you saying that you made this decision in just one month?”
Hanbin barely managed to suppress the scream that was about to burst out.
Now I could be sure of the condition of the South Sea Heavenly King.
Now he was more serious than the long-winded nonpartisan.
That symptom meant only one thing.
Then the enemy answered.
“Maybe.”
“Hmm, a month… … .”
“It must have been around that much.”
The red ghost spoke without changing his expression.
For a moment, Hanbin narrowed his eyes.
Hanbin took something out of his bosom.
Hanbin’s sudden actions made Jeokgwi grab the chil-stringed zither.
The tension disappeared for a moment, and the wariness disappeared from the enemy’s expression.
That was because I knew that what Hanbin took out was a small box.
widely.
Hanbin put the box down on the floor.
“This is a thing for burning incense.”
“Incense… … . Then it must be an incense burner. But why did you take out the incense burner?”
“I said this because I thought this might be necessary for the conversation.”
“Why do you need this?”
“Some ingredients mixed together can help clear the mind. I think this incense is needed right now. Just wait a moment. There is something I need to do before I light the incense.”
“What is that?”
“Please wait a moment so I can show you.”
Hanbin quietly turned his head.
Hanbin, who was looking behind him, quietly snapped his fingers.
Exactly!
At that sound, a white bird flew in from afar.
Of course, the owner of the new model was Seolhwa.
Seolhwa sat down next to Hanbin and opened her bundle as if nothing had happened.
There, the writing brush and ink were neatly arranged.
Hanbin, who checked the writing brush and ink, snapped his fingers again.
Exactly!
At that sound, the story disappeared.
Seol-hwa’s expression as she returned to her group was very stiff.
Of course, the King of the South Sea and Red Ghost could not see that expression.
Hanbin rolled up his sleeves.
Then he picked up a brush dipped in ink and wrote a poem in one stroke.
Sasa-sak.
Hanbin’s brush, filled with lightning, created poetry in the blink of an eye.
It was not another poem, but a part of Su Dongpo’s Red Cliffs.
The King of the Southern Sea was quite surprised by Hanbin’s brushwork.
Hanbin handed the paper on which he had written his poem to the King of the South Sea before the brush had even dried.
“Please read this. This is a gift from my heart.”
“It’s a gift… … .”
The King of the South Sea opened the poem that Hanbin had given him without any hesitation.
“Good, good!”
He kept exclaiming.
Hanbin picked up the brush again.
“This time, it’s a gift for Senior Jeokgwi.”
After finishing speaking, Hanbin wrote a poem in one stroke.
Sasa-sak.
The brush moved smoothly across the paper as if it was gliding over ice.
The King of the South Sea was so absorbed in admiring his gift that he did not pay attention to Hanbin’s brushwork.
In fact, there was nothing to look at; what Hanbin was writing this time was Baek’s poetry.
Hanbin, who had written the poem in the blink of an eye, shook his head as if he didn’t like it, then drew a few letters.
Sssssss.
After that, I gave the poem I wrote this time to Jeokgwi.
The red ghost also seemed to be in a good mood as he enjoyed the poem.
While the two were appreciating the poem, Hanbin organized his writing brush and ink again.
Hanbin spoke in a low voice while organizing his writing brush and ink.
“I will follow the will of the elder swordsman. However, there is a problem.”
“What is the problem?”
“The question is whether the actions of the Southern Sea Heavenly King are in line with the wishes of the Sword Master.”
“That’s up to me to decide.”
“Is it the intention of the Sword Master to destroy the martial arts world?”
“I thought you would agree with me.”
“Of course, I will follow the will of the King of the Southern Sea.”
“Hmm, I thought you understood.”
“Then what are you going to do with the royal relatives?”
“If there are any such forces among the royal family, they must be weeded out.”
The King of the South Sea smiled kindly.
Hanbin nodded in response to that smile.
“Then, in that sense, can I buy you some tea?”
“great.”
This time, the red ghost answered.
The red ghost’s face was filled with deep thought after he finished speaking.
If you look closely, you can see that the eyebrows are trembling slightly.
Jeokgwi couldn’t take his eyes off the poem Hanbin had given him.
The poem Hanbin gave was an ordinary poem by Baek.
But the problem was the letters that Hanbin had drawn.
At first, I actually tried to ignore it.
However, I couldn’t just ignore it because no matter how I looked at it, it wasn’t a mistake in the writing.
In some ways, the erased letters were closer to the handwriting.
It was natural that people would be more interested in the famous handwriting.
As I looked at it closely, I realized that the meaning of the letters was strange.
The words were friend, loneliness, addiction, etc.
When I put those letters together, it became a sentence that said my friend was addicted to loneliness.
And it ended with the words, “Don’t be surprised, no matter what happens.”
Loneliness?
The red ghost was startled without even realizing it.
The King of the South Sea was a close friend whom he could trust more than anyone else.
Instead of holding power in the royal family, he roamed the world of martial arts and was the one who cared for the people more than anyone else. That was the King of the South Sea.
But you’re addicted to loneliness?
If you think about it, his behavior over the past month has been strange.
That was when.
Hanbin lit the incense with a torch.
Hanbin, who had lit the fire, spoke in a small voice.
“This is a medicinal herb called Samhwangcho. It has the power to drive away any kind of evil loneliness. Since my seniors have tested me, I will test you this time.”
“Did you just say loneliness?”
The King of the South Sea narrowed his eyes and got up from his seat.
He held the island quietly.
It seemed as if he was trying to question Hanbin.
He swung his sword before Hanbin could even answer.
The direction that Geodo was facing was exactly the incense burner.
phut!
