Chapter 572

Episode 572. Let’s not care about each other.

The next morning.

About three hundred people gathered at the north gate of Yangdo.

All of them are merchants and escorts from the upper ranks who have gathered to go to the northern road.

It was the first time since Yangyang came into existence that such a large group of people had gathered to go to the northern road.

A diverse group of people gathered, but in an orderly manner.

At the center was the top of the best, the top of the gold king, and the top of the new pillar.

Because there were masters of the soyojong sect behind the three guilds, outsiders voluntarily followed the instructions of the three guilds.

Of course, not everyone followed the top three directions.

The escorts of the three guilds gathered the merchants who joined from Yangdo separately to one side.

Cheon Won-seok, the head of the top division, taught foreign merchants how to behave.

“Listen! I won’t stop you from following behind us! But no matter how far we go, the corps goes first, and you have to follow! At any rate, you can’t try to go ahead of the top like those people! I mean, you shouldn’t be fooling around in front of the upper ranks! Do you understand?”

Wonseok pointed to the north gate.

Just in time, the man and the woman were approaching the officers.

Since no merchants were going out through the north gate this morning, their behavior was more noticeable.

“All right.”

“Excellent! These are people who don’t notice. I have to follow behind unobtrusively. What topic are you leading?”

“People like that need to taste a bit hot to come to their senses.”

“We will never do anything like that!”

The merchants threw one word at a time.

Won-seok Won, who nodded with a satisfied face, gave a slight fright.

“Those who get ahead of our upper ranks will not be protected! If you want to be protected, please follow me gently! Do you understand?”

“yes!”

“Of course not!”

“Hold on to worry!”

After the merchants answered in a loud voice, one by one they put down their backpacks.

It is because there is no need to lose strength in advance to go after the three tops have moved.

When the merchants obediently obeyed the control, Won-seok Won left the leaders and ran to the north gate.

This is to prevent those who dare to lead by burying themselves in the top three.

As the man and the woman approached the gate, the official from the north gate raised his hand to stop them.

“Stop.”

Yeonjeokha approached the officer.

Having lived with the officers at the city gate all winter, he did not have a very unpleasant face.

“why?”

“Looks like you’re going to the ‘corridor of death’, is that right?”

“that’s right.”

“If you can, why do you want to go first when you have to go with the guild? Don’t you know what that place is like?”

A smile spread across the younger brother’s lips.

Seeing the tone and expression of the young officer, I could feel that he was worried.

It’s time for Yeonjeokha to answer.

A middle-aged man came running like the wind from behind.

It was Won Won-seok, the manager of the top-tier.

He stopped in front of the officer and said.

“I am Won-seok Won, the manager at the top. Choi Seon Sang, Geumwang Sang, and Sinju Sangdan will cross the ‘corridor of death’ together with the masters of Soyo sect.”

Then the officer nodded.

“I heard the story. I wish you good results.”

After talking with the officer, Won-seok Won turned his gaze to the man and woman who were standing like a bag of barley.

“What kind of irrelevant behavior do young people have? If you’re going to bury them at the top of the three, you’ll have to quietly follow them. Look at the vendors waiting their turn over there. Do you think they are doing that because they have no idea?”

Yeonjeokha refuted his words.

“Here, Manager Won. Are we not going to bury it?”

“this! It wasn’t just a case. As I told the other merchants, those who are ahead of the Caravan will not be protected. If that’s okay with you, go ahead. I won’t stop until that.”

At Wonwon-seok’s threat, the officer slipped in.

Gwak Sang-moon, a master of Soyojong, pointed to the man and woman who were passing through the gate with a chin gesture.

Lee Gon, the top-ranking leader, replied with a puzzled face.

“It looks like those who were in Yangdo. It seems that the immortals of the Soyo sect knew that they were going the northern route and intervened.”

“They dare to go ahead of us, they are shameless.”

“Even if it wasn’t so, I told the captains of the guild to take control, but I’m sorry. I will send someone to the back of the procession.”

“Leave it alone. I want to see how they deal with the beast.”

A flash of life passed through Kwak Sang-moon’s eyes.

He dared to go ahead of the soyojong master, so he was going to make him pay the price.

“yes.”

Igon let out a sigh of relief.

It would be embarrassing to ask him to take responsibility for the failure to control the number of people, but I think it went well.

“egg plant.”

Kwak Sang-moon took a step back before the man and the woman disappeared from sight.

To see their gruesome words with both eyes.

As Kwak Sang-mun and the five soyo-jong masters walked, wagons and porters followed.

Mt. Bullusan, the head temple of the Soyo sect, has one palace, three halls, and eight pavilions.

Originally, it was twelve, but five hundred years ago, in a fight with Cheonjijong, it lost its five senses, and the eight points remained.

Among them, Kwak Sang-mun was a master of ‘Wonyeong’ belonging to ‘Jehaeng-gak’.

The rituals were like a bridge connecting the secular world and the Soyo sect.

Being a master of the Soyo sect does not mean that you have completely cut ties with the secular world.

If the mundane world needed a sect because of the encroachment of wild beasts and beasts, demons and beasts, the sectarian disciples were living with the offerings of the secular world.

In a word, it is like helping and receiving donations.

The lord of the castle or the lord of the county constantly requested help from the sect, and each time the sect sent an appropriate disciple.

The place where the disciples who wanted to go out to the secular world gathered was ‘Jehaenggak’.

Then, why did the disciples of the sect who left the secular world put their names on their deeds?

Not only in Soyojong, but also in the sect, they did not pamper their disciples for free.

Disciples of the sect were rewarded according to their performance.

Rewards were divided into ‘Gap-eul Byeong(甲乙丙)’ according to the level of difficulty of the job, and ‘Golden’ was given to the lowest rank Byeong(丙), ‘Honseok’ for B(乙), and ‘Gyeongseok’ for Gap(甲).

‘Honseok’ and ‘Arcanumseok’ are the highest level treasures that directly help to increase aura.

So what about gold?

Do disciples of sects who have distanced themselves from the secular world need gold?

The answer is ‘necessary’.

The disciples of the sect purchased and took ‘Gyeongji Seoncho’ or ‘Naedan’ to increase their spiritual energy.

For that reason, the disciples of Soyojong, who had no sponsors, flocked to ‘jehaeng-gak’.

For reference, it is only ‘Wonyoung’ who receives help from Yeongji Seoncho and Naedan.

From ‘Dokyo’, it was difficult to increase the spirit with ‘Yeongji Seoncho’ or ‘Naedan’.

To be precise, I had to take it and it didn’t show signs.

From then on, you have to get help from ‘Honseok’ and ‘Youngseok’.

What should an ordinary Soyojong disciple do to obtain ‘Honseok’ and ‘Spiritual Stone’?

At that time, I had to put my name on ‘Musangak’ rather than ‘Jehaeng-gak’.

The difficulty of the work entrusted in ‘Musang-gak’ was so high that only masters of Dokyo or higher were accepted.

The greater the risk, the greater the reward.

Therefore, even if you only know the affiliation of a Soyo sect master, you can roughly guess his inaction.

The bottom is ‘Jehaeng-gak’, the top is ‘Musang-gak’, and the rest are at least higher than ‘Musang-gak’.

But that also means that Kwak Sang-moon of Yangdo today is the best among the group.

The five Soyo-jong masters were inferior to Kwak Sang-mun, and as a result, they were in a hurry to please Kwak Sang-mun.

Yihyu, a master of Soyojong, took a sneak peek at Kwak Sang-moon’s complexion.

Seeing that he frowned every time he saw this man and woman, it must have been quite distasteful.

Hey, it’s not like they’re doing any kind of escort, and it’s only natural that young people who have nothing to do with the upper ranks keep hanging out in front of them.

It stands out even more as no one goes to and from the ‘corridor of death’.

I said, ‘I’ll see what happens when I meet the beast’, but I’m not in the mood to go until then.

‘Shall I kick it out?’
