Chapter 469

Episode 469

Around the time Jinmu left the shaman, cold tension hung over the northern part of the central plains.

Xinjiang Gansu Shaanxi, Shanxi and Hebei.

The northern boundary of the five saints was filled with Murim people dispatched from each faction.

Those who used to live in villages were evacuated from the war as recommended by nearby officials.

Datong is a city in the northernmost part of Shanxi Province.

The place, which was made up of thousands of houses, was also empty, and in the empty houses, the warriors of the Gupa led by Geomhye divided their powers and set up camp.

“Geomhye adult.”

“Oh Unam. Come on.”

It was Unam who returned to the Kunryunpa and joined after the funeral of Punghwan.

He had to go back for several years to enshrine his teacher’s tablet, but the situation was not good, so he left early, and he was on the way to inspect the scouts placed in the five northern streets under the direction of Geomhye, who was in charge of the escort.

“How is the situation?”

“There is nothing much to say yet, but the evacuation procession continues in the north as well.”

“Um...”

At Unam’s words, Byeok Unyeong nodded heavily.

The evacuation procession started from the north.

Those wandering about, using the vast grassland as their dwelling place, were crossing the border.

According to their testimonies, people wearing red towels appeared at the border of the grassland and started a ruthless massacre, regardless of children and adults.

Those who heard the rumors were also fleeing in line to the south to avoid them.

“The damn bastards... so cruel even to innocent people.”

“...”

“According to the message of Grand Army Jegal, those who are evacuating were classified separately and looked after. They say that there may be a group of palaces mixed in between them.”

“That’s right. Those who have crossed over from the grassland are gathered separately and investigated. When the investigation is complete, we will send you down south. But the number will increase more and more...”

“Umm...”

At Unam’s words, Byeok Unyeong’s complexion darkened.

As he said, there are not many refugees now, but if the number increases, it must be difficult to investigate them all.

Other gateways had already expressed the same concerns.

“But isn’t it impossible to ignore the powerless? The army that has been convened will begin moving soon, so let’s do our best to hold out until then.”

“All right.”

After finishing his answer, Unam was about to step back, but turned around and asked as if he had just remembered.

“Did you hear the news of Jinmu Dojo?”

“I thought you might be curious, so I contacted the opening.”

“...”

“It is said that it has been about 15 days since you left the shaman, so you must have arrived in Hebei, where Sapaecheon is in charge, by now.”

“Are you Hebei?”

“Is it not possible? If the boundary of Hebei is breached, it is the Forbidden City. I guess I thought it was the most dangerous.”

“...”

Unam nodded his head without saying anything.

Byeok Un-yeong, who was looking at the situation, asked indirectly.

“Are you okay?”

“...”

He didn’t say what it was about, but he guessed it.

windmill’s death.

It was done after the fight with Jinmu.

Everyone pretends to be the top line, but death is death.

A sad smile appeared on Unam’s face, who couldn’t keep his master’s end.

“Don’t you blame Jinmu Dojo?”

“How can you blame me? Again, thank you.”

“...is that so.”

“I think you smiled.”

“...”

“Although he achieved his goal at the end of his life, he passed away with a blissful expression.”

When I remembered that fact, my sad smile brightened as if my mood had improved.

“I’m glad you think so.”

“yes. When this work is over, I’m thinking of asking you for a drink.”

“Alcohol...”

Byeok Un-yeong nodded and changed the topic.

No matter how wealthy he was, it would be quite a wound to continue to mention the pain of losing his teacher.

“Anyway, as the evacuation procession increases, doesn’t it mean that the enemy’s main force is getting closer? I am worried about many things.”

“That’s right. But when I heard it, they said they use poison?”

“It’s a poison from the Black Death Book. However, the antidote is being prepared in earnest, so don’t worry. It seems like it will take some time as the amount required is not small, but it will arrive before the main force of the palace arrives.”

“I’m glad.”

“okay. In any case, you should be fully prepared and be vigilant. If the roads of each place are cleared, unimaginable tribulation will occur.”

“yes. Then, I will rest for a while and at dawn, together with the guardsmen, I will take a look inside the village where the refugees are staying.”

“Inside the village?”

Most of the military personnel were focused only on the north, so the vigilance was loose in the downtown area of Daedong.

Tak’s father, who had been wandering around for a while, found a small pattern in a shack located in a remote place and looked around and approached it.

“This is Amhyang Eleventh.”

profit.

In the dark space where the door opened and entered, several people were already waiting for Tak.

“Was there no one following?”

“yes.”

“Good. Then let’s begin.”

Tak’s father, or Amhyang Eleventh, hesitantly asked, at the words of the man who seemed to be a chieftain.

“Will your wife and children be all right?”

“All right. Don’t worry. The Daegung lord promised to give a huge reward to our Amhyangs once this work is over.”

“But... no matter how much it is, the fact that they use poison on innocent people...” ”

...”

At the words of the 11th, the chieftain’s eyes flashed a moment of chill.

“This man. What are you so worried about? It will be done in other places where amphibians have already been put in. You are just one of them. Think only of your family.”

“....”

At the words of the man who gave a strong encouragement, Eleventh nodded with a firm expression.

“The execution time is at the end of the hour (5:00 a.m.). After waking up the family and getting ready to leave, you can poison the poison of the black killer in each area and leave immediately. keep all in mind. It’s an hour. It should never be later or sooner than that.”

“All right.”

When everyone answered with one voice, Eleventh nodded without hesitating any longer.

Daedong, after a tiring night passes and the day dawns dimly.

Unam, who was patrolling Daedong with his soldiers, raised his head and looked at the dawn sky.

“Whoa... Calm.”

Who said that the time before the storm is the most calm?

Preparations for war were in full swing, but the stars that had been shining all night in the sky were disappearing one by one as the dawn dawned, as if they had nothing to do with what was happening on the ground.

“Master...”

Was it because the atmosphere was so calm?

Thinking of the teacher who couldn’t stay on his deathbed, the thought of drinking became desperate.

“ringworm.”

“yes.”

In response to Unam’s call, Baekseon, who had been under his command since the time of the inspection team, answered quietly.

“Would you like to have a drink with me?”

“Is it puppet dawn?”

“...”

“It’s a big deal. The deputy lord found all the alcohol.”

“I’m just feeling a little like that today.”

“Hmm, it’s early, but that’s good. We will inform the Budan Lord of our special place.”

“...?”

At Baekseon’s words, the soldiers under his command smiled.

“Actually, there are already several places where other warriors secretly drink alcohol.”

“stealthily?”

“Hey, don’t look at me like that. Where do you get a drink in this situation?”

“Ha ha, I see. I will close my eyes for this time.”

Unam winked his eyes and nodded.

There was a strict order to never damage a private house.

It was said that they had fled, but it was someone else’s property and should not be touched carelessly.

But wouldn’t that be better than demoralizing with tight controls?

“Now, the vice lord is also on the same boat with us.”

“I get it, I get it.”

“great. Then let’s go.”

“okay. It might disturb those who are sleeping hard, so let’s go on the roof.”

“I see.”

Baekseon answered and told his soldiers to continue patrolling, and jumped onto the roof following Unam.

At that time, I was approaching the largest hall among the places where the signboard indicating that it was Juru was hung on the roof.

“The sub-lord.”

The white line in front of him suddenly stopped running and lowered his voice.

Unam, who felt it was unusual to hide his appearance, followed Baekseon’s gaze and brightened his eyes.

A man looked around as if he was being chased by something, then secretly entered the main base he was heading for.

It was early morning when everyone was asleep.

Even if the gait was that of an ordinary person who had not learned martial arts, it was bound to be suspicious.

“What should I do?”

“Well, just follow along. Do you think refugees don’t want to drink? Maybe that person is too cautious about touching other people’s things.”

“yes.”

The two killed as much as possible and hid in the main base where the mysterious man entered.
