Chapter 473

Episode 473. Shield and sword,

the first day of May.

Diocese of Shanxi Province.

Yeomwanggak at the entrance of Pungjisan Mountain.

around noon.

Middle-aged men and women carrying various weapons gathered one by one at Yeomwanggak.

They are the Eight Emperors who dispersed to Namjikryeseong from the inside to retrieve the old books of the Great Tower.

When everyone sat down, Taebaek Seonin (太白仙人) spoke.

“Good job. It’s really amazing to be able to retrieve an old book in such a short period of time. Before going to the headmaster, I would like you to briefly hear about the process and results.”

Taebaek Seonin saw Hwajo Seonin (花鳥仙人) who went to a geographically close place.

The Hwajoseonin shrugged and said.

“I found Bulmokhani hiding in the Xian Lighthouse, confirmed that he had no old books left, and even cleaned up his family. Since it has been uprooted, there will be no problem with the immortals.”

After he finished speaking, he turned his head to the yin and yang cheonseon next to him.

They thought that since they had a business room in Xi’an, it would be the next order.

The Venerable Yuktong inadvertently glanced back at ‘Jikilsinjang and Gugung Cheonnyeo’.

I thought it was Wang Fu (王府) next, but everyone didn’t seem to be interested in the ‘processing order’.

If it’s not related to the following, what does the order matter?

“Me and Eumyang Cheonseon retrieved the old books left in the Geumil Sangbang, sent them to Mt. Fungji, and as you said, waited for the ‘Paekhwa Sangbang’ and ‘Wangbu’ work to be over, and then killed them all. I’m pretty sure I left no witnesses or evidence.”

Still, he had no lingering attachments to the principle, and he said, ‘I waited for the work of Baekhwa Sangbang and Wangbu to be over’.

However, the other Eight Emperors did not attach much importance to the words.

Finally, people’s eyes turned to ‘Pipa Seonja and Vajrapani Bodhisattva’ who were in charge of Baekhwa Sangbang.

Just as the non-wrecked man was about to speak out, Jikilsinjang, who had gone to Wangbu, intervened.

“I heard that Hum department store is having some problems. I think it would be better to tell you the outcome of our royal family before that. How about it?”

At the words of Jikilsinjang, the Bi-Paseonja nodded.

This is because the story related to the department store is not something that can be easily sorted out anyway.

“Thank you. Gugung Cheonnyeo and I took care of the eunuchs and the university history after recovering the old books from the university historian. I’ve confirmed that they didn’t steal the old books, so you don’t have to worry about it anymore.”

After his words were finished, the Eight Emperors paid attention to the non-wrecked man in unison.

According to the story I heard across the bridge, it was a pretty serious situation, but I don’t know what it is.

The non-wrecked man opened his mouth with a confused face.

“We haven’t heard anything from Jikilsinjang and Gugungcheonnyeo about the old books retrieved from the royal palace. In fact, all of us are ahead of our minds, but we don’t have enough insight to distinguish old books.”

Seven men and women shook their heads.

In fact, unless you were a scribe or a university student, identifying old books was just a wish.

In an instant, Geumgang Bodhisattva helped out.

“So I pushed it a little harder. It’s because you have to go down anyway. After all, they bluffed, ‘Who stole the old books!’ When passing by Hefei, he dedicated three books to Empress Dowager Ten.”

“...”

When the name of Empress Dowager 10 came out, the atmosphere in the hall became heavy.

The non-wrecked man continued.

“Before that, a little explanation is needed. A quarrel broke out between Baekhwasang Sangdan and Yeonjeokha on their way to Namjikryeseong. In the end, the acting manager even tried to kill the younger enemy. Later, when Empress Dowager Ten, who heard about the incident, banned Baekhwa Sangbang from entering Hebi, the acting chief offered an old book as an apology. He said that the three volumes of the obituary were filled with old books purchased from the Eungcheonbu.”

“Huh!”

“No, why are you touching Yeonjeokha?”

“The merchants are stealing other people’s things and tsk tsk!”

“So there is a saying not to trust merchants.”

The eight emperors who were angry threw out one word at a time.

They were more reluctant to the erratic master Yeon Jeok-ha than the broken Namgung Sei.

The Namgung family took it lightly because they were members of the Hocheon League.

It was even more so after being trampled on by Baekduma soldiers Musanangrang Lee Maehwa and Wolhaseonja.

The Eight Emperors know that Yeonjeokha is not an easy opponent, but they are not afraid of him either.

It’s tricky, but it’s not impregnable, should I say?

It was all the more so since few people had personally fought him.

In the end, Taebaek Seonin was also involved in the wind of ‘Down with Yeonjeokha’ caused by Hwajo Seonin.

“If you want, let’s play the stone sutras. However, if a large number of people are mobilized, the forest will surely move. I’ll have to go to the proper number that is not noticeable. Does anyone know about the stone sutras?”

Then the Gugung Cheonnyeo said.

“I heard about Seokgyeongjang in the anoxic axis. The only food customers are Gucheonnodo Simtong, his two young female students, and a pharmacist at Yakdang. Other than them, everyone else was said to be workers brought from the Namgung family.”

“When you say workers, do you mean ordinary people?”

“that’s right. I know about five of them, including the maids and maids.”

“Unlike the manor of Yeonjeokha and Empress Dowager Ten, the number of people is small.”

“It must be one of the two, whether you have no thoughts or have trouble seeing the current situation.”

Gugung Cheonnyeo was considered the latter.

Many people thought that famous schools would not be active abroad for at least three years.

Just like what Hocheonmaeng is doing now because of the ‘three-year contract’.

But tens of thousands of words.

Hocheonmaeng has no power and will be bound by promises, but the famous religion has no reason to do so.

As with old books, you can do what you want at any time.

The Hwajoseonin, who was watching the conversation between the two, said excitedly.

“If there are only Yeonjeokha and Tenjeonmu and Gucheonnodo, wouldn’t our Eight Emperors be enough?”

Taebaek Seonin could not help thinking for a moment.

The Eight Emperors, under the direct control of the religious leader, have taken care of almost everything by themselves.

Don’t you know if the opponent has power?

If not, the Eight Emperors are enough, as the Hwajoseonin said.

I thought so in my heart, but Taebaek Seonin couldn’t easily decide.

The swordsman under Yeonjeokha, whom he once saw on Mt. Fengji, kept catching his ankle.

If he is a tiger, the Eight Emperors are a wolf.

With the power of the Eight Emperors, you can defeat him, but a great sacrifice will follow.

Honestly, I wanted to reduce the sacrifice of wolves even if I released dogs.

Of course, the dog means twelve horses.

Unlike the Eight Emperors raised by the Master, the twelve horses can be recruited at any time.

After much deliberation, Taebaek Seonin decided to mobilize the twelve horsemen.

Moderately within the line of not hurting the face of the Eight Emperors.

“Let’s select five of the twelve horsemen in Mt. Fengji and take them with us. If they move separately, they will avoid public attention.”

The hard-liner, the venerable Luk Tong asked with a puzzled face.

“Do you really think it is necessary to mobilize the Twelve Horsemen for the Eight Emperors event?”

In fact, the Eight Emperors tended to look down on the Twelve Horsemen.

This is because most of them lived a third-rate life and became masters of sacrifice.

Moreover, it was embarrassing to even call the 5 Twelve Horsemen a full force.

It was difficult to understand why the Six Tongs would take such a number with them.

Then, Taebaek Seonin said with a straight face.

“Gosu is difficult to deal with head-on. We’ll do a lot of damage if we don’t distract him. However, the Eight Emperors cannot run around to distract him.”

“You mean bait?”

“It’s okay to use it as bait, but if it’s attacked by evil, won’t even a dog bite a tiger?”

The Taebaek Seonin intended to make the five twelve horsemen ‘demons of hell’.

‘If the five demons run rampant, no matter how hard they fight, they won’t be able to escape without getting hurt.’

They will be useful as the ‘shield’ of the Eight Emperors while alive and as the ‘sword’ when dead.
