Episode 484. The meeting between the tiger and the dog
continued for more than an hour (two hours), but no consensus was reached.
Each faction had a different view of ‘Seokgyeongjang’ and ‘Nammaeng’.
While the ‘Jeonjinpa, Jeomchangpa and Joint faction’ were negative, the ‘Volcano faction, the non-partisan faction, Uicheonmun’ was favorable, and the ‘Shaolin Temple Qingsheng faction’ maintained a neutral stance.
As the circumstances were, the meeting ran in parallel from beginning to end.
Tired of the elders’ quarrel, the leader of the martial arts merchant winked at the musketeer.
Musketeers Gongson Ilrang and Gongson Ki lightly tapped on the table.
Only then did the elders, who had been arguing, shut their mouths and pay attention to the musketeer.
“I listened to both sides. I think it would be okay to watch the ‘Southern Alliance’ a little longer. What does Lord Maeng think?”
Gongsun-gi passed on the burden to the lord.
Since the opinions of the Chilpamun were sharply divided, he had no choice but to be cautious.
“Bindo believes that the ‘Nammaeng’ is also a member of the Hocheonmaeng family. Wouldn’t it be known if the ‘Southern Alliance’ invaded the territory of the Hocheon League? The people of the world will laugh at us if we regulate the ‘Southern League’ just by guessing.”
The elders of the joint branch of the Forward Promising Branch frowned.
They thought that the lord did not accept their opinion.
But Gongson-gi had a different idea.
‘It sounds like they will regulate if they invade the territory of the Hocheonmaeng.’
To invade a territory is to use it.
Right now, there may be a dispute between the breakwaters under the ‘Hocheonmaeng’ and the breakwaters of the ‘Nammaeng’ in Namjikryeseong.
Even increasing the reputation of the ‘Nammaeng’ in Namjikryeseong belongs to territory invasion. This is because all places where there are Jeong-do schools are the ‘territory of Hocheonmaeng’.
So, according to the leader’s words, the ‘Hocheon League’ can regulate the ‘Southern Alliance’ at any time.
If the leader wants to...
No one objected to the leader’s remarks.
There was no other way to deal with it, so I just put it off until tomorrow.
It’s like being silent about ‘the blood of the Eight Emperors’.
Considering the reality of Hocheonblind, whose functions almost stopped, it was inevitable.
The meeting, as usual, ended without a reply.
The elders, who had been arguing with blood vessels in their necks, left the meeting room.
The martial arts merchant and Gongsun Qi crossed the yard side by side.
The Mugeuk Merchant, who was walking silently, asked.
“Why are Mumu Jinin, Docheon Jinn, and Wolmyeong Merchant so keen on ‘Seokgyeongjang’ and ‘Southern Alliance’?”
“Didn’t you run a patrol during the Cheonjimaeng era?”
“Does it have anything to do with it?”
“When Yeon Jeok-ha was in the green forest, he often clashed with the factional patrol, and I think it was because of the bad relationship at that time.”
“her! something like that.”
At the unexpected answer, the merchant shook his head.
In front of the fork in the road, Gongsun-gi slipped his luck.
“That’s what the lord said in the meeting room.”
“What do you mean?”
“Didn’t you say that if the ‘Nam League’ invades the territory of the ‘Hocheon League’, we will impose restrictions?”
“Oh, I did say something like that.”
“I want to know the Lord’s sincerity.”
“Hmm! Seriously.”
The Mugeuk Merchant didn’t answer easily and cast his eyes toward the distant sky.
Following the ‘Cheonji League’, he became the leader of the ‘Hocheon League’.
The leader is the supreme leader of the political faction.
After spending a few years like that, I feel comfortable now in the leader position that seemed like I was wearing someone else’s clothes.
Rather, I had to force myself to squeeze the image of my days as a monk to the extent that I could barely recall it.
Interest also shifted from ‘seeking the way’ to ‘restoration of political faction’.
It seems to have changed from ‘only I need to attain enlightenment’ to ‘life for everyone’.
Now, if it is for the sake of the great cause, I can accept a little sacrifice.
It was something I could never have imagined when I was a monk.
“I could even go to hell for the ‘restoration of the sect’.”
Gong Son-gi was taken aback by his remarks that exceeded expectations.
can you go to hell
“How far is the political faction?”
Looking at the big picture, I had to confirm that the ‘Southern Alliance’ was also a political party.
Even though Baekduma Army broke away from Yumyeonggyo, their personal connections remained.
“I just got a letter from you. It is said that Yeonjeokha climbed Mount Pungji with Jeokwol.”
“...”
Kang Sang-pi and Bang Cheon-gak were speechless for a while at the unexpected sound.
Bangcheongak, who had been absent-mindedly, murmured.
“Then ‘Yeonnamcheon’ was ‘Yeonjeokha’?”
After Gongchwisan’s disappearance, Myeongwanggyo refrained from going outside as much as possible.
As a result, it is inevitable to be dark at the news of Kang-ho.
The political faction called Yeon Jeok-ha ‘Namcheon’, but even he didn’t know.
Cheok Jin-kyung continued his speech with a trembling face.
“Nobu also recently found out that Yeonjeokha’s nickname was ‘Namcheon’. It seems that he used my nickname as a name in Mt. Hwangbang.”
Kang Sang-pi asked with an absurd face.
“Why did Yeon Jeok-ha do such a thing? He is the enemy of the famous religion and the mortal enemy.”
“Even the person who delivered the news did not know the details. I just said that I saw the yeonjeokha and the jeokwol came together.”
Kang Sang-pi did not accept it easily.
“It is truly unbelievable. Even if the cult leader and Yeonjeokha joined hands, would that young bastard have the ability to capture Baekdu Demon Army?”
“....”
To Sangpi Kang’s point, Jinkyung Cheok didn’t reply.
To be honest, I wasn’t confident in that part either.
Kidnapping him from the Twelve Horsemen who follow Mt. Gongchwi in Red Moon like a shadow?
Wouldn’t it be known if the headmaster went out directly?
Even if the top 10 masters of the world were to come out, it would be impossible.
At that moment, a shotgun ceremony flowed from Bangcheongak’s mouth.
“ha! I can’t believe that Yeon Jeok-ha did it alone. Maybe there was an assistant.”
Kang Sang-pi and Cheok Jin-gyeong shook their heads at the word “assistant.”
Certainly, if Yeon Jeok-ha had an assistant, it would not have been impossible to kidnap Jeok-wol.
“Whoever the helper is, the person who ultimately handed over the red moon to the religious leader will be the younger one.”
“....”
A heavy silence enveloped Gwangmyeongjeong.
He knew that the leader would not stand still, but he was gloomy when the incident came right in front of him.
After a while, Chuck Jin-kyung said.
“The leader is not someone who will be satisfied with just one red moon. If we continue like this, we will not be able to escape from the red moon.”
Kang Sang-pi added a word.
“I can’t just leave it alone. Since he touched our Myeongwanggyo, let’s take revenge.”
However, no one agreed with his words of revenge.
Kang Sang-pi could not hide his embarrassment at the unexpected reaction.
“No, the enemy enemy hit us in the back first, so why don’t you guys say anything?”
Then Bang Chun-gak replied.
“It’s just a side branch of dating. More important than that is the outside of the school. Shouldn’t we stop the new mother of the Eighthwangs who is taking out Baekduma-gun like dried persimmons?”
“You are right. You have to play with a dog in front of a tiger to use it.”
Chuck Jin-gyeong compared Yeonjeokha to a dog.
When the two objected, Kang Sang-pi did not insist any more.
After thinking about it, it’s not that it wasn’t, but their protection took precedence over revenge.
“Since you two say that, I will follow you. Do you have any good ways to stop the cult leader?”
Bang Chun-gak carefully took his luck.
“Since Jeokwol was captured alive, the secret of ‘Eumyanggo’ must have been known. If it was the leader’s ability, he could have eliminated Yanggo. If so, we cannot stop the leader with our own strength. It’s not like there’s a force nearby to help us... So, what about the Demonic Cult?”
In an instant, Chul Jin-kyung screamed as if in a seizure.
“what? You want to go to Cheonsan right now? Let’s go with the slaughter-mad? That’s all except for jumping into the tiger’s den to avoid the wolf.”
“But if you stay like this, you never know when you will be taken to Mt. Pungji, right?”
Still, Chuck Jin-gyeong stubbornly refused.
“That is not to be said. Didn’t you feel it the last time you met the eastern lion? They are psychopaths who want the end of the world. Do you think the Demonic Cult leader will welcome us? If it’s more than Eighthwangsinmo, it’s more, I won’t be less.”
“Until now, not a few Sapa masters have entered Cheonsan. Isn’t there a law telling us not to do that?”
“Have you forgotten already? Unlike them, we are all other than ‘the King of Flames’. Do you think that the self-proclaimed god, the head of the Demonic Cult, will accept us as pagans?”
Bang Cheon-gak could not answer and just chewed his lips.
It is truly a quandary.
I thought everything would be fine if I left the famous school, but I don’t know why it’s like this.
