Chapter 887

Episode 887. Everyone trusts their own judgment

.

“Musketeer. No matter how much I think about it, it seems unreasonable to lure the Demonic Cult through the infinite breakwater. We don’t know when the South will arrive in Wuhan. If the Southern Alliance is later than us, it will only cause self-inflicted sacrifices... It’s too risky for an uncertain match.”

Then, Gongsun-gi said calmly.

“As the Lord said, it is not certain. But it’s better than doing nothing. If there is even the slightest possibility, I know it should be done.”

“Do you think it’s worth sacrificing the infinite breakwaters?”

“There is a saying, “Leave the small and take the big [捨小取大]. For the Hocheon-maeng to be superior to the Nam-maeng, they must do so. If the Southern Meng and the Demonic Cult fight first, the Hocheon Meng will end up looking at the roof of a dog chasing chickens.”

“Hmm.”

A groan escaped from the mercenary’s mouth.

Aside from everything else, that was correct.

Considering the insolence of Namcheon Yeonjeokha and the Sword King Namgung Byeok, it was clear that the war would end before Hocheonmaeng jumped in.

‘If that happens, the poor response of the Hocheonmaeng will be on the chopping block...’

The ‘Hocheonmaeng useless theory’ that you have heard so much will cover the world again.

The breakwaters under the Hocheon League adjacent to the Namjikryeseong Fortress will move from the Hocheon League to the South League, and the Hocheon League will shrink even more, and in the end, it may remain as a friendship group of the Chilpamun.

If Murim’s suzerainty is taken over by the Nam Maeng, then Chilpamun will be no different from the rest of Gangho’s Bangpa.

In a sense, it is the downfall of Murim led by Chilpamun.

After thinking about that, the meaning of ‘Sassochwidae’ that Gongsun-gi spoke of finally became clear.

Perhaps it means ‘take the honor of the Hocheonmaeng by sacrificing the infinite breakwater’.

‘I can’t destroy Hocheonmaeng with my own hands.’

It is astounding to think that the Southern Alliance is more fearful than the Famous or Demonic Cults.

After a long thought, the Merchant Wu Geuk decided to follow Gongsun Qi’s will.

“When you arrive in Xinyang, send a copy to the Wuhan branch. ‘Gather the infinite breakwaters and lure the Demonic Cult to Mt. Mokryeon’. Let’s see the match between the two of Geon-Gon, who staked the fate of the mighty on Mt. Mokryeon.”

“I will do as you command.”

After Ko So-gi tried to eup (損),

he withdrew.

Namjikryeseong.

Ak Seohyun.

Around dusk, about 200 warriors entered the village.

They are the soldiers of the Southern Alliance.

As soon as they entered the village, they scattered in search of an inn.

Yeon Je-ha and Shen-tong found lodgings with Lee Dae.

After a while, when we went down to the restaurant, Namgungcheon waved enthusiastically at Yeonjeokha.

The two approached the seats across from Namgungcheon.

Jin Seol-ha, who was seated next to Namgung-cheon, greeted her with a bright smile.

“Two minutes. welcome.”

Yeon Jeok-ha and Sim-tong nodded silently and sat down.

Jin Seol-ha looked around and said.

“Because it’s like this, it reminds me of the old days. Every night we discussed the Twelve Horsemen. Come to think of it, a lot happened.”

Namgoongchun slipped in.

“The biggest thing among them will be the fight against the Demonic Cult.”

Namgung-cheon stopped talking after Jin Seol-ha came to the South League.

It’s because we’ve become that close since we hang out almost every day from morning until late at night.

“If you meet the Demonic Cult, you will have to be careful.”

“What are you talking about? The one who will save himself is not me, but the Demonic Cult. have you forgotten who i am? It’s called Cheongun Sword Namgungcheon.”

Namgung-cheon made a loud noise in front of her lover.

Then, Jin Seol-ha turned her gaze to Yeon Jeok-ha.

“Did you see it? Let the kite daehyeop dry up a bit. They don’t even want to listen to me.”

Just in time, Jeom So-yi put down a bowl of chogi (炒飯 fried rice) in front of Yeon Jeok-ha.

I didn’t even order it separately, but seeing that it was brought, it seems that it was dinner in the beginning.

He picked up the first half with a sullen face.

“It’s more because my sister-in-law is worried. Just pretend you didn’t hear. If you see that my brother has survived the river up to now, he will do well on his own.”

Then Namgungcheon laughed and said.

“I don’t have anything bad to think about. The musketeer had to look around carefully. The stricter Moyong Daehyeop behaves, the less sacrifices the Southern Alliance will make.”

“I know that, but the last expression is not real. You didn’t have a face that said that Yeon Daehyeop could lose to Cheonjama. Do you hear that kind of sound even after seeing Yeon Daehyeop’s sword attack?”

“It is said that the martial arts of the Thousand Horses have reached the level of success. So that’s it. Even in the Demonic Cult, there are only a handful of cult leaders who have received the name of the Heavenly Child.”

“joy! What is that Cheonjama saying? When I meet Yan Dahyeop, I will run away to Tianshan. Yes? Kite grand bargain?”

Yeonjeokha asked her words with an absurd face.

“Are you running away?”

“why? Are you not confident?”

Following Jinseolha, I stared at Yeonjeokha all the way to Namgungcheon.

Yeonjeokha replied with a sullen face.

“The Cheonjama, the god of the upper world, also died by my hand. But how can Danjesan, a human from the underworld, run away? I wonder if he is stronger than the Heavenly Son of Sanggye.”

“ah! Are you saying that the son of a thousand will die?”

Jin Seol-ha’s eyes twinkled.

When the son of Heaven dies, the Demonic Cult will flee to Mount Cheon, so there was no better news than that.

If that’s the case, we’ll be able to get married before the end of the year.

“of course.”

Namgungcheon asked with a puzzled face.

“But why did you tell the musketeer that you didn’t know?”

“When you are cornered, your true nature comes out. I was curious about who he was.”

Only then did Namgungcheon realize that he did it to test the musketeers.

‘What kind of person is Gaman Moyong Daehyeop?’

But nothing really came to mind.

It is because his human nature is not widely known other than the nickname ‘Bancheon Il Sword’.

“If he’s like Singer Singer... are you going to hit him like he did back then?”

Jin Seol-ha punched in the air.

He shrugged his shoulders, but neither acknowledged nor denied it.

***

Next day.

As soon as dawn broke, the people of the Musketeers, who had been walking around and chasing people, were silent.

Thanks to this, the masters of the Southern League slept late for a long time.

Traveling was relieved, but the departure time was delayed, so it was only possible to move after 4:00 (9:00 am).

The speed of the leader also slowed down unlike the previous day.

Namgungcheon and Jinseolha tilted their heads as they rode side by side with Yeonjeokha.

It was because I was worried that the Musketeer’s speed had slowed down after meeting the enemy enemy.

In the end, Namgungcheon, unable to hold back his curiosity, quickly took the lead.

He drove his horse to the side of the sword king Namgung wall.

“Lord.”

“What’s going on?”

“The departure time and speed are very slow unlike before. Any special reason?”

“The delay in departure is because there was a problem with the horses of the Musketeers. That’s why it’s slowed down.”

“Is it a problem?”

“They say they stopped by the stable because they showed some symptoms of colic (abdominal pain). Fortunately, it was not colic, but there was a recommendation not to overwork. So I decided to watch the situation without rushing for a few days. If there is a problem with the horse, it will be slower.”

“It’s unfortunate that it’s just the words of the Musketeers.”

“What do you mean?”

“Last night the musketeer came to see the enemy. He asked me if I could beat Danjesan, the son of a thousand.”

“haha. That person is also true. Something like that...”

“The enemy said, ‘I don’t know because I’ve never dealt with Danjesan’s sword.’ After that, my expression got a little worse.”

“So, did you really think the Musketeer was delaying the time on purpose?”

“The lord will judge well. Then I’m done.”

Namgungcheon immediately returned to this generation.

Namgung Byeok, who was left alone, looked at the leader of the musketeers with ambiguous eyes.

‘It’s like asking about this. It’s like just burying it...’
