Episode 289

The next day, we visited Hyegeommun Gate in a carriage prepared by a Tang guard.

It was to transport the Samaho ship, which had less leg bones.

Sima Haoxen, who was freed from his shackles after a long time, smiled, as if he was in a good mood.

“Okay, I’m dying. “What’s so exciting?”

“Daehyup is also tied up like a bastard and is released. “You’ll want to jump up and down with excitement.”

“When I get back, I’ll put a leash on you. Then the next outing will be more exciting.”

“… … .”

Immediately after that, Sima Haoxian became quiet and sat in a corner with a gloomy expression on his face.

Anyway, we didn’t care and discussed the matter of Jeongpunghoe.

Namgung-hwi felt uneasy about the fact that the people invited to the Jeongpunghoe were selected from each faction.

“Whether it was a small military officer or a local chamber of commerce, only the one person with the greatest military presence was invited. I thought about the reason, but… … I think it was a plan to attract late-stage indices in advance that could be used as a source of strength in the future. “It could be that they are trying to plant Sejak.”

As Baek Ya’s voice passed by Nam Gung-hwi’s guess, his heart began to beat rapidly.

‘Don’t eat it.’

After all, it is loneliness.

If it’s loneliness, it’s understandable why Mine took the initiative to organize a gathering for late exponents, and why Muwi invited only the most talented people.

Since the process of creating solitude itself was difficult, it was highly likely that they only tried to feed it to selected people.

I chewed my lip and looked at the three people in turn, warning them.

“You three, don’t say anything during this meeting. Water too. driveway. “You can’t even drink alcohol.”

“Can’t I eat it even if I’m with a marten?”

“huh. no. When someone offers it, I just pretend to eat it and spit it out. Never swallow it. No, just say no. Understand?”

“huh.”

Jinseong, who was looking at me pleading with Yang Kyojin, made eye contact and asked.

“I want to know why you are on guard. Were there any suspicious circumstances?”

“There is no context. “I think that Dokgo-il is trying to create loneliness for the later exponents.”

“… … “Are you talking about blood pressure?”

Jinseong and Namgoonghwi’s expressions became serious. Sima Haoxian, who was in the corner, also widened his eyes as if he was surprised.

Yang Kyo-jin was the only one scratching his head with an incomprehensible expression on his face.

“What is solitude? Are you eating it?”

“You can eat it, but if you eat it, you will have to live like a demon cultist for the rest of your life. “If I don’t get my contract cancelled, I die.”

“It’s the same as Sima Hao-seon waiting to get the contract canceled by So-hye’s little bastard.”

“different. Hey, don’t put the Tang family on the same line as the Demon school.”

Seeing my straight face, Yang Kyo-jin licked his lips and looked the other way.

When the carriage arrived at Hyegeommun Gate, Dok Go-il was there to meet it.

He glanced at Sima Haoxian, who was standing behind me with his head bowed, and greeted him calmly.

“It’s an honor for your hero to stop by again. “I will take you to the banquet hall.”

“okay.”

Yang Gyo-jin, who answered willingly, stood next to Dok Go-il and asked strange questions.

“How did your hair turn gray? Did your parents grow their hair early too? Or did you take the wrong medicine when you were young?”

“It’s not like that, but one of our ancestors is a saekmokin, so we have this appearance.”

“You grew up in Jungwon, right? “Then, have you been to your hometown?”

“… … “I was born in Gaebong.”

“Not just opening, but my real hometown. The place where your ancestors came from. Is it Cheonchukguk? Or Pasa-guk?”

hey. That’s racism.

Dokgo-il seemed to calmly accept whatever Yang Kyo-jin said, but at some point, the corners of his mouth trembled, as if it was difficult to hide his emotions.

Even from a distance, we could feel his agitation.

Namgoonghwi watched the scene with a face filled with strange sentiment.

“Seeing it from a third party’s point of view is even more amazing. “I envy your talent for laying out battlegrounds that test human patience.”

“Are you serious?”

“… … “It can’t be.”

Namgoonghwi, who responded to Jinseong’s question with a straight face, straightened his clothes and smiled brightly at us.

“Please come back. “I will take charge of the banquet hall.”

“Then, let me ask you a favor. Confucius.”

After exchanging glances with Namgoonghwi, I quickly left, taking Jinseong with me.

“The shrine… … Ah, I guess it’s over there.”

Jinseong quickly found a building with a different appearance and started walking ahead.

Sima Haoxian also limped and followed us.

While thinking about the two pavilions on either side of the shrine, I looked back and asked.

“Simama Xiaoxiao. “Which looks more suspicious?”

“The energy of the left pavilion is slightly different. “Let’s go in from the left.”

Jinseong, who was holding the sword handle, also recommended it to me.

“I can’t feel any signs of popularity inside the palace. I will watch from outside, so you can check. “As soon as the white-haired prince comes near, I will send a messenger.”

“key!”

“yes. “Then, let me check.”

I nodded and quickly entered the palace hall.

As Jinseong said, there was no sign of any presence inside the palace.

Is there a total of 3 floors? Let’s check it out quickly.

I swallowed my saliva and walked down the hallway on the first floor, remembering Sima Haoxen’s words.

The first floor is twenty steps away.

The second floor… … Less than twenty paces. Seventeen paces.

The third floor is exactly twenty.

There may be a difference of about three steps… … Should I count again just in case?

I went down to the second floor of the road and counted my steps, but it still wasn’t twenty steps.

Write it. It’s a long time ago. Where is Sama Husun?

When I opened the window with the intention of asking him to come up and check, I saw Sama Ha-seon looking up at me as if he had been waiting.

“As expected, it’s that pavilion. “Is it on the second floor?”

“If you know, you’ll come up quickly.”

Sima Haoxian sauntered over, dragging his legs with a look on his face that said he knew this would happen, and took out a judge’s pen from his arms.

“Do you also carry a judge’s pen?”

“I’m a true expert.”

Sima Haoxian responded by looking closely at the end of the hallway, then poking the floor and a few decorative flower pots with the tip of his pen.

At the same time, the landscape painting on the hallway wall began to strangely sway, and a hidden door appeared.

what? Break through this in one go.

“We eliminated one welcome group. “There are two more inside.”

He calmly opened the door and walked in. He patted the wall as if dusting the room, then quickly activated the engine oscillation system and found the door leading to the basement.

I gaped at the absurdity.

This is because it did not take Sima Hao-seon even half an angle, let alone an inch, to destroy all the formations.

What is the basic method… … Was it this easy to break through? Probably not. What is this kid doing?

It was almost absurd to destroy a formation that others did not even know existed, as easily as breaking a sand castle with the tip of one’s toe.

“What are you? “How on earth did you find it?”

“It’s not a big deal that they’re fighting, right? “Don’t forget two glasses of white wine.”

Chuckling Samahosun said as he opened the door to the basement.

“It doesn’t look like there’s any tracheal pressure inside, but just in case, stay on top. There might be other gins out there. “I’ll come back and see what’s hidden.”

“is it so. Come check it out. “I’ll be here.”

He said, ‘I heard that Langju (郎酒) smells so good…’ … .’ I muttered things like that and lined up the names of the drinks I wanted to drink.

Yeah, whatever. If you do your job this well, I might give you a few bottles of alcohol.

As I listened to Sama Haoxen humming, I decided to have him drink a bottle of alcohol for ten days.

However, it seemed as if his steps going down to the basement were slowly slowing down, and at some point, the humming stopped.

“… … ah.”

Sama Hoseon’s voice trembled slightly as he groaned.

“… … Party Grand Council. “You should come down and see for yourself.”

“What’s going on?”

I, too, became nervous at the sound of his serious voice and started going down the stairs.

Sima Haoxian’s face was pale as he looked back at me. He was chatting his teeth together, looking like he had seen a ghost.

This was my first time seeing Sima Haoxian look so scared, so I was confused and tapped him on the shoulder.

“What’s wrong? What is there, ugh… … !”

As soon as I stepped into the cool basement, an unpleasant bloody smell assaulted my nose.

The miasma seeping up from the floor was so bad that an average person could not breathe.

“Simama Xiaoxiao. If you drink this you will die. “Get back quickly.”

I covered Sama Ho-seon’s nose and mouth with the sleeve of the long sleeve and pulled him up, pushing him up the stairs.

“Hold your breath and swallow the detox pill. “Go higher so you don’t touch the poisonous rain.”

As I pulled the remaining poison from Sima Haoxian’s body toward me and looked into the basement, I saw porcelain bottles lined up in rows and rows with eerie precision.

There was a crunching sound coming from all directions, as if something had been placed in a bottle the size of the palm of one’s hand.

As I approached and reached for the bottle, a startled Sima Haoxian stopped me.

“Dang, party grand cooperation! Don’t mess with it… … ! It’s loneliness! You may be addicted or brainwashed… … !”

“I won’t get addicted, just go out and get the kids. right now.”

“who… … .”

“Jinseong Dojang will be nearby. He tells me to make sure to bring it with me. After telling it to Jinseong Dojang, I also told it to Gyojin and Confucius Namgung.”

Sama Ho-seon nodded in response to my answer and tried to climb the stairs, but his body stiffened and he groaned as if he could not move.

He gave up walking on two feet and crawled up the stairs with his elbows like a four-legged animal.

After confirming that he got out safely, I picked up the nearest one.

Thump, thud. widely. Crack.

The sound of crashing without stopping gave me goosebumps.

I had an idea of ​​what was inside, but I had to see it with my own eyes.

It’s better not to expose your skin, just in case.

I took a deep breath and put on gloves made from old blood net leather.

As I carefully opened the lid to avoid irritating the bottle, a curse word came out.

shit.

Inside him, it was obvious that he had been raised on human blood, and it was squirming.
