#Cheongharu
– Cheonghae Seonyeong Paegeommun.
The next day, Zhang Yishu and Mao went to the sword shop early in the morning.
“Is this… the Cheonghae branch?!”
No, that’s a stable. I consoled Mao, who was picking on the black horse by asking if he was the branch manager.
“First, let’s get rid of the drunkenness.”
Pot! Then, a spicy scent floats from Mao’s body like vapor over his shoulder.
The hot yang energy of Cheon Yang Ji blew away the drunkenness in an instant.
Certainly, my body is my body.
“Phew, I guess I can live a little. But what’s wrong with this kid? Why is it tangled?”
You’re the black horse who was just talking about being the branch manager.
“Remember, while you are in Qinghai, your Majesty should remain a member of the family of Chilso Palace.”
“Do you really have to do it that way?”
That’s what you have to do.
The opponent is a blood cult.
Those who can hide anywhere and use any number of tactics.
Mao’s appearance was a variable for them, and if they became aware of it, the number of cases they had to be careful about would only increase.
So the answer is to hide it as much as possible.
“Oh, and don’t be surprised when you go in.”
“Huh! What do you think of me? I’ve been through a lot. Look at me. I’m surprised.”
The moment Mao snorted and opened the gate of the sword room wide.
“Hello, my lord!”
“Hello, my lord!”
The four major breakwaters of the Cheonghae branch, lined up in four rows, greeted us with loud voices.
Dotapsa Temple and Daemaseonsa Temple Jiseung.
Hangwoobang and Bimutuwang Eijisan.
The Gwangcheonru and Cheonsu Nangja Seongso-gyeong.
The swordsman and the smallpox king.
They are.
And when the main character, Jang I-seo, stepped forward, Manseok Geuk, who was in the lead, greeted him with a smile.
“Are you here?”
The Demonic Cult’s Cheonghae branch has now become Jang Il-seo’s personal guard.
They greeted us.
And Mao… … .
“Oh, huh!”
In an instant, I was pushed to the limit and turned into a puppy.
I was that surprised.
How many people are there in total? They must be the size of the Seven Swordsmen. And they are the lords.
‘Jang-seo, you punk. How long have you been living alone and now you’re living in two houses? This isn’t going to work.’
The dead energy suddenly came back to life, and soon jealousy was exhaled in a long breath.
The people at Cheonghae Branch also felt the momentum and looked at Mao with eyes full of caution.
Who is that tall guy?
“He’s a kid who works at Chilsogung, so don’t worry about him.”
“You’re a slave.”
“No!”
The cadres raise the corners of their mouths mischievously, and Mao growls, baring his teeth.
It looks like we’re already on good terms.
Jang nodded with satisfaction and went inside.
Only Myo Chae-kyung, the head of the Biryong Party, who recognized him from afar, was shocked.
*
Mao, who was trying to follow Zhang Yishu into the inner quarters, was stopped by Man Guang.
“The adults have something to talk about today, so the little one should wait.”
Little guy. Could it be me? I can’t help but laugh out loud because it’s so absurd.
“Did you hear that just now? He told me… … .”
“That would be good. You wait here.”
“What, what?!”
A place where you can enter without mercy.
The leader of the Biryong Party also followed in, fidgeting, and Mao, who was eventually left alone with Man-Gwang, was left dumbfounded.
How dare you treat me like this when I’m your assistant. No, more than that, how arrogant you were when you gave me orders in an informal tone!
‘It’s even more annoying because it suits me strangely!’
It’s a sad reality somehow.
“A slave of Chilsogung?”
When I turned my head to the voice that was scratching my insides, I saw Man-kwang leaning against the wall and smiling.
Mao asked with indifferent eyes.
“Did you see it?”
“what.”
“Have you ever seen such a precious-looking slave?”
“Hahahaha! You’re a funny guy.”
“What’s fun?”
Mao snorted and turned his head away. Then Man-kwang came over and said.
“It’s Man-kwang. This is the son of this house.”
“Oh, I’m the son of the main character.”
“Hehe, are you chasing your lord?”
“What did you say? The Seven Princes sent me here? You all have to keep your eyes open and watch.”
“Us?”
There are people like this. Chilgongja is not even a dog. But he is the king’s son-in-law, so why are you speaking informally to him?
“Are your natural speaking habits that annoying?”
“What do you know!”
“You’re not an ordinary person. Hehe, well, if you’re from the main mountain, you should have that much spirit. Anyway, since you came to watch, you have to show off. Please take good care of me.”
“joy.”
Man-kwang chuckled and leaned against the opposite wall as he asked.
“But what kind of person is the Seven Princes?”
“Do whatever you want.”
“I heard the rumors weren’t very good before.”
“what?!”
If you move a little, I’ll bite you. Man-kwang added, waving his hand.
“Oh, don’t misunderstand. I’m just saying this because I’m worried that the Seven Princes might not like us later.”
“Why you guys? Are you sure you’ve been swearing at me here?”
“Who are you?” Man-kwang looked at him as if he couldn’t believe it, then snickered and continued speaking.
“You may not know since you’re from the mainland, but we’re from the suburbs, as you can see. Wherever we go, we’re more used to being treated coldly than welcomed.”
Mao flinched at Wan Guang’s self-deprecating smile. He was more accustomed to a life of neglect than anyone else.
“… … A loser or a suburbanite.”
“hmm?”
“I don’t know about other people, but Chil-gong-ja doesn’t care about that kind of thing at all.”
Man-kwang pretended to look surprised, but then quickly smiled warmly.
“I see.”
“Anyway, don’t worry about useless things. Just be nice to me. I’ll explain everything to you later.”
“Poohahaha! To you, a slave? That’s enough. Just stand up straight on guard.”
KHAAAAHHHH! You little shits, I will never accept you. Never!
Mao was looking even sadder today.
*
Meanwhile, Jang-seo, who entered the room, entered an emergency meeting with Manseok-geuk, Myo Chae-gyeong, and the executives of the Cheonghae branch.
Because the Biryong Party Leader finally finished investigating where the Blood Cult might be hiding.
“First of all, there was nothing noteworthy in Seonyeong. It was crowded together and there weren’t many large estates, and the ones that did have one didn’t change hands and there was no new activity.”
If you just listen to her, it sounds like the investigation was a failure. But her expression was filled with a confident smile.
Let’s wait silently, and as expected, the confirmation she had been waiting for came out.
“But when we expanded the search area to include the area around Cheonghae Lake, we were able to get a clue.”
Qinghai Lake is the largest lake in the Central Plains, with a size of 10,000 li (4,000 km).
Among them, there were not many forts along the waterside near Seonyeong, but there were many large forts.
Myo Chae-kyung watched them.
“It almost took a while, but luckily the guys at Cheonghae Branch knew the whole neighborhood so we were able to confirm it right away.”
She glanced at the executives who had helped her. It was nothing special, but she mentioned their contributions.
They were enemies when they were under me, but now they are the first forces that Jang Il-seo has embraced.
It was a favor done in advance with the future in mind.
A woman who is definitely selfish, but also knows how to deal with people.
“Thank you for your hard work.”
Jang Seo-do responded by lightly congratulating them. The executives’ pride went up.
“Anyway, there are fifteen huts that can accommodate more than a hundred people. Of those, only one has recently changed owners and family members.”
Myo Chae-kyung said with a sly smile.
“It’s Cheongha-ru (Cheongha-ru).”
Jang Yiseo’s eyes widened. And the words he had heard from Jegal Somi last night flashed through his mind.
‘There is an information dealer in Cheonghae who deals with rock carvings. Cheongha-ru (靑河樓). I will also look into it to see if anyone from Shaolin has ever been here.’
My heart was pounding and my mind was blank.
The ferry left early this morning, so it should be around now… … .
“What should we do now?”
In response to Myo Chae-kyung’s question, Jang Yi-seo gritted his teeth and answered in a murderous tone.
“I’m leaving right now. Get ready.”
“Your name!”
The executives answered vigorously and went out.
And Jang Seo thought.
If anyone touches my brother even a little bit… … .
I will show you what a devil is.
* * *
– Cheonghae Lake, Cheongha Tower.
Meanwhile, at that time.
Before the Cheonghae branch moved, there were those who arrived at the waterside skyscrapers first.
“I’m sorry, but I’m not open for business today, so I’ll have to go back now… … .”
“Tell Rouge that the crow from the east has arrived.”
A handsome man and woman with their faces covered by pure white hair.
It was Jegal So-mi and Seon-yu.
As predicted, they arrived first.
The old-fashioned tower was eerily quiet, and the stares from everywhere were eerie.
‘It’s full of evil energy… … .’
Shh …
In particular, Seonyu looked around and winked at the ominous aura that made her skin feel hot.
Of course, there was no need to explain it in words.
Jegal So-mi also felt something strange.
In particular, the traces of the floor having been wiped with water several times made me feel uneasy.
The faint scent of blood is a bonus.
‘Are you sure this is the place?’
‘That’s true, but it’s strange… … .’
‘Awesome.’
The two shared a sense of ominousness, exchanging signals with their eyes.
And right then.
“Please follow me.”
A woman with cold eyes beckoned for me to come over.
The door behind is still open. Going back out like this would be a way, but… … .
Jegal So-mi and Seon-yu nodded to each other and headed inside.
Squeak.
The door closed with an eerie noise.
*
The two climbed the repetitive stairs several times. When they reached the last room, the woman who had guided them opened the door and told them to go in.
As if it were a topic he didn’t dare to enter into.
“Let’s go in.”
Anyway, I have come this far and have no intention of backing down.
As I entered the room, a beautiful room appeared with a clear view of Cheonghae Lake on one side.
“You came looking for me.”
A captivating yet cool voice rings in my ear.
A beautiful woman sitting on a table.
This is Cheongharu’s Rouge.
But the way he sits like a man, and the black uniform that clearly shows off his muscular body.
An unusual aura that didn’t match up from the first time we met.
Jegal So-mi opened her mouth calmly, skillfully hiding her embarrassment.
“I wanted to get some information.”
“Huh.”
Rouge rested her chin on her hand and looked at me with interest, then nodded.
“Okay. What are you curious about?”
“I want to know if you have visited Shaolin here in Cheonghae recently.”
“Shaolin… … . Why are you curious about that?”
“Do I have to say that?”
“Haha, that’s not it. But it would be quite expensive to find out about that. Is that okay?”
Jegal Somi’s eyes narrowed. Was he trying to bargain? The value of information is determined when the buyer needs it.
The very fact that I am discussing this means that it is necessary for me.
therefore.
“You came.”
A sparkle flashed in Jegal Somi’s eyes. At this, Rooju opened her mouth slightly as if she had been hit with a punch and clapped her hands slightly.
“Wow. As expected of a child of the Zhuge family? He lives up to his reputation.”
“I’ve never… said anything like that?”
“What’s so difficult about that?”
Rouge fell off the table. Then she took a step forward.
A rough yet refined gait. And a sense of oppression!
This wasn’t just the spirit of a rouge. It was the spirit of a fierce general who could crush an army of ten million people at any moment!
‘This guy… … what is he?’
Jegal So-mi swallowed hard and opened her eyes wide.
