Chapter 75. Who Dare to See Ghosts? (1)
“stop!”
As Hoyeonsang was about to have a fit, Jeongsajeong stepped forward. And he warned them both. If you are truly unmanned, then shut up and let the rest of the conversation be with your sword. At those words, Jin Gayong said, “Let’s do that,” and without any hesitation, he quickly turned around and returned to his camp. Hoyeonsang watched his back and grumbled for a moment before also returning to his camp.
Jeong Sa-jeong clicked his tongue as he watched those scenes and then spoke to the three onlookers who had come out with him.
“Let’s go too. They’ll figure out what to do among themselves, whether they fight with their mouths or with their swords.”
As Jeong Sa-jeong was leaving, he glanced at Mu-heun-bo Lee Yang-jo, who was also a member of the same unit, but was now a participant on Ho-yeon-sang’s side. Then, when his eyes met with Lee Yang-jo’s, he nodded.
So now, only fourteen contestants remained on the plains of Yeonman, determined to kill each other.
“Oh, you spoke so well. But, Prince Jin, did that guy really get eaten by Chang-Gwi?”
Jin Ga-yong shook his head at Hyung Woo-saeng’s words. He said that he didn’t know. Everyone was dumbfounded and puzzled. Was Jin Ga-yong originally like that? Then they looked back at Bi-ho. He was so dark and dark, he had been hanging out with Bi-ho for too long, so maybe he had gotten used to it? That was the look in his eyes.
But Jin Ga-yong said with a face without a single smile.
“I was just trying to provoke Hoyeonsang. But he is indeed crazy. I could tell by looking at his eyes. It seems he got used to the turtle shell and eventually lost it.”
“Then does that mean… even if your neck is cut off like a tree on an ice mountain, you won’t die?”
When Ah-hu expressed his concern, Jin-ga-yong simply nodded his head without saying anything else to be careful. At that moment, Bi-ho, who was watching the front, spoke in an eerie voice.
“Ah, since he’s Jin Gongja’s job anyway, let’s leave it to him and get started. Is everyone ready?”
Direct.
As soon as Biho finished speaking, he pulled out his sword and started to tremble. Then, his thin and wide body like a cicada’s wings trembled and let out a cold breath.
Then, my colleagues also started to move one after another.
Sling.
Jin Ga-yong turned around and picked up the old-fashioned current situation. Then he walked forward step by step.
Then, Ah-hu pulled out the magic sword Seol-ah and stepped aside, but his eyes were fixed on the blonde, exotic woman, Hyeon-bing-ok-su Gwak-ja-ui.
Next, the old man pulled out the long sword on his right waist and held it in his left hand. The sword had a unique wave pattern engraved on its back. He also held an amulet from his bosom in his right hand and recited a spell. This old man was both a swordsman and a spellcaster.
Then the old man of Shandong stepped forward in front of Xing Yu Sheng, and set the seven swords in the barrel on the ground, and pulled out one sword from it. He liked to break other people’s swords, and his own sword also broke easily, so instead of one good sword, he brought along extra swords like this.
Hyungwoo Saeng then stepped back, shook his shoulder, and pulled out a dark iron ball the size of an adult’s fist from the bag he was carrying on his other shoulder. Normally, he would have picked up rocks scattered all over the place and thrown them, but today, since it was a special day, he prepared some special ones.
Finally, the Black Cat took out two long knives in each hand and stood next to Hyungwoo Saeng, that is, at the back of the formation, side by side with Hyungwoo Saeng.
Meanwhile, on the other side… … .
“Hmm, it seems like they want to decide the match in one breath. So, Your Highness, what will you do now?”
“Huh. If you want to die quickly, then do so. Let’s finish this quickly and go eat. I’m going to rip that bastard’s liver out right now and chew on it. That way I’ll feel better.”
At Masik’s words, Hoyeonsang narrowed his eyes vertically like an animal and showed his anger without holding back. Originally, whenever he thought of Jin Gayong, he would get angry, hateful, and even obsessed with his appetite. But now that he was seeing it up close and hearing it with his own eyes, it was hard to hold back. Especially that unique, mouth-watering smell! It was enough to make my body tremble.
“Let’s do that. Ladies and gentlemen, did you all hear the Grand Duke’s words? Then let’s begin. Grand Duke! You go first.”
“Huh? You want me to fight Jin Ga-yong directly? Isn’t that a different story?”
Hoyeonsang’s words were that Jin Gayong was walking alone on the other side, and that he was told to go first. Originally, it was agreed that Jin Gayong would be in charge of Lee Yangjo, and Hoyeonsang was to stay back for a while and then intervene when appropriate after observing the situation. That was the question.
Then Masik said.
“That’s not possible. You’re not someone that Confucius can handle. The one I’m telling you to go to is not you.”
“What does that mean…?”
Crunch.
When Masik suddenly pulled out the sword he had stored in its scabbard, Hoyeonsang was so surprised that he stopped talking and looked back at Masik.
What is this?
And what was that ‘rustling’ sound just now?
At that moment, Hoyeonsang heard the sound of the Nakilgeom Yukjamun’s pure admiration.
“What a neat and tidy recipe!”
A red line appeared around Narakdo Hoyeonsang’s neck. Then, with his eyes wide open in surprise, his head fell to the floor.
Degururu~ Lie.
Masik took Hoyeonsang’s head with a single sword and kicked it, causing one of its heads to float above the field, then fall and roll again.
… … !
Thanks to that, Jin Ga-yong had to stop his steps towards the enemy camp. Ho-yeon-sang’s head rolled down to his feet. Jin Ga-yong looked up. It seemed as if he was asking what was happening.
Then, the owner of the ghost, Muheunbo Lee Yangjo, stepped forward in front of Jin Gayong. This was the order from the higher-ups that the rest of them, except for Hoyeonsang, had received.
1. First, kill the crazy Archduke who has outlived his usefulness.
1. Since the mask is what you want, establish the dignity of the main room by wearing it in front of everyone. After that, retrieve the mask, or if that doesn’t work, delete it completely.
1. The remaining stray dogs should be destroyed by the participants.
“Hehehe, that sword is really ruthless.”
King Hongmiwon laughed heartily.
The biggest obstacle to carrying out the above plan was Jang An Il-geom Ma-sik. Everyone knew that he was definitely a person of Ho-yeon-sang. That was why Hong Mi-won-wang had secretly tried to gauge his intentions while drinking alone with him the day before. And later, he formally contacted his superiors and won them over.
But he was afraid of theft that he had learned late, so he came forward and beheaded his former master. He said it was a courtesy to his former master or something, but any dog passing by would laugh at it. So King Hongmiwon thought, That bastard is a born dog, so he can’t act like a human. Well, he certainly has sharp teeth, so there will be a line of masters looking for him.
Anyway, that’s how things turned out. By the way, weren’t you worried that our power would be weakened with one less ally?
No way.
“Wow~ What are they doing now? Are they fighting?”
On the other hand, Jin Ga-yong’s side was also surprised by Ho Yeon-sang’s sudden death and Lee Yang-jo’s subsequent provocation. So, the old man Shandong, who was acting as the goalkeeper, was astonished. Then, Bi-ho, who was about to attack by surprise when Jin Ga-yong started, stopped walking due to the sudden change in the situation in the room and responded indifferently.
“It can’t be an internal strife. It must be an execution. In this place where it wouldn’t be strange if someone died. Now that I look at it, the intentions of the Lion King are clear. We will eliminate both the person who caused the commotion in the square of the city of Chang’an and the person who caused it.”
“So what do we do now?”
“Well. Even if it’s a complaint, it’s a complaint. Since Yangjo Lee came out on his own, let’s wait and see for a while. Before that… … .”
Biho suddenly looked at the wall and spoke to the black cat standing next to Hyungwoo Saeng behind him.
“Hey, Black Cat. They gave us an unexpected gift, so shouldn’t we return the favor?”
“return courtesy?”
The black cat naturally turned his gaze towards Biho as he asked back. He wondered if it was a thank you or something related to the wall.
At that moment, Biho turned around and slashed his sword horizontally, striking the Black Cat’s neck.
Stone embankment.
The head of the Great Black Cat, severed with a single stroke, fell to the ground. Then, Biho stabbed the severed head with the tip of his sword and threw it far away towards Hoyeonsang’s camp.
Boom~ thump. thump. Degururu.
In this sudden situation, a commotion broke out from the other camp. Before they had even crossed swords, there had already been a casualty from both camps. Even though they had their reasons, what kind of strange things were they doing?
Then Biho shouted.
“Here’s a thank you. You guys threw your trash here, so we sent you one too!”
***
Biho had been thinking like this since he was negotiating with Kwak Nan-hoe.
This was in the same context as the fact that the Sajabang side used a duel to deal with Hoyeonsang cleanly and without disturbance. It also originated from Samyo, who had joined as a temporary crew member during Chumyeonjeongjo’s last operation and then died.
What is that?
At that time, Kwak Nan-hoe, who was the leader of the Chumyeondae, could guess that Jeongjo and Euljo, who had been sent on a mission for various reasons, had fallen into a trap. However, she had already been tied up by the intervention of her father, Kwak Bu-ui. So she tried to inform them of the danger they were facing through a secret messenger.
The contact was a shaman.
However, Samyo went out after receiving the call and was ambushed by the enemies. As a result, Gwak Nan-hoe’s message was also forgotten. What would have happened if Samyo had properly delivered Gwak Nan-hoe’s warning at that time?
It was something I never knew.
In any case, this incident raised the following question.
How did the temple get raided? Did it just happen to catch the enemy’s eye?
Of course, it could be because the enemies had already set up a position and waited. However, despite having set a perfect trap in that ice mountain, why bother to disturb the prey in the middle to make them alert? It was the most foolish thing in the world. But they disturbed the prey. Why? It must have been because they calculated that it would be more profitable. In other words, the enemies knew in advance that the message from Gwak Nan-hoe, which would be delivered through the temple, could be fatal to their plans.
Who on earth told you that?
Samyo was a member of the Ten Myos, and the leader of the Ten Myos was Daeheukmyo. Daeheukmyo was Gwak Nan-hoe’s closest associate and was in charge of intelligence work. Naturally, there must have been many temptations from rivals.
Based on this inference, and with some circumstantial evidence confirmed later, Biho decided to pinpoint the black cat as a rat.
So, the reason Biho asked Kwak Nan-hoe to support the Great Black Cat was to take revenge on the cat and hold the person responsible accountable. Not with words, but with a knife. In that context, he also said this to Kwak Nan-hoe.
“… … . Please think carefully about what I mean. It will not be a bad deal for you either.”
