The Party Will Not Fall - Chapter 77



Only Krnovel

As I walked down the road with the aftereffects of the heavy rain, there were familiar faces in front of me.

“It’s short-lived and effective. “I guess the two of you decided to go together.”

“what.”

“what’s the matter?”

“That direction is the direction where I hid Jincheom.”

“… … .”

“How will we explain it when we find it?”

“… Should I run?”

Paang!

The two started walking without even knowing who would go first.

* * *

Nothing much happened on the way back.

The only interesting point was that Jincheom showed no signs of escaping from the effects of the paralyzing poison, so Dangbihyeon carried him the whole time.

“Aren’t you sad?”

A night with the constellations clearly visible.

Dang Bi-hyeon handed the beef jerky to Chae Se-yeon in front of the bonfire and sat down.

Chae Se-yeon had a faint smile on her face.

“I came all the way to Sapa, but it was in vain, so there’s no way I wouldn’t be disappointed.”

For Chae Se-yeon, this summer was a fruitless season.

Instead of having a clue to catch Dang Bi-hyeon, I wasted my energy by getting caught up in something pointless.

The only harvest is that I can now firmly trust Kang Hyuk, the subordinate in front of me.

It was just a pity that Kang Hyuk’s true identity was Dang Bi-hyeon.

“It would be better if I stayed in the Murim Alliance and killed him… .”

“No, I didn’t mean Tang Bihyeon.”

Chae Se-yeon tilted her head.

“then?”

“I mean the sea, my lord.”

“ah… .”

Suddenly, a completely forgotten memory passed through Chae Se-yeon’s mind.

‘I remembered a place I wanted to go.’

‘Where in Honam do you want to go?’

‘It’s not the exact place… .’

Chae Se-yeon spoke while trying to appear lively.

‘ocean! ‘I’ve never been there before.’

“Actually, it’s not something I really wanted to see. “I read the description in a book about life on a cruise.”

She continued speaking while holding the beef jerky tightly in her hand.

“I wanted to look away.”

Dang Bi-hyeon did not bother to ask from what.

Thinking back to the reason they left on their mission, it was easy to understand why.

“Who should I trust now? and… “Who will believe in me as much as the Lord?”

The breath I calmly exhaled was trembling.

Chae Se-yeon hugged her knees and looked straight at Dang Bi-hyeon.

“I’m not worried about that now.”

“… Fortunately, the.”

The sound of burning firewood tickled my ears.

When the atmosphere became drowsy, Dang Bi-hyeon spoke.

“But someday, if I get the chance, I will show you the sea.”

he declared.

“It will be a completely different experience than reading a book.”

“I’m looking forward to it. “Don’t hesitate too much.”

Chae Se-yeon, smiling brightly, stood up.

“Today, I will be the first to wake up. Are you sleeping.”

“All right.”

Chae Se-yeon, who was holding the sword sheath while tearing the beef jerky with her molars, walked away to look around.

Meanwhile, Jin Cheom spoke to Dang Bi Hyeon.

“Hey, boss.”

“Leader?”

“I don’t want to call you master, and you can’t call me hey, right?”

“That is correct.”

What Jincheom was curious about was no different.

“Every day must be a series of dangers, so why on earth are you infiltrating the Murim Alliance?”

“Oh, haven’t you told me yet?”

Dang Fei-hyeon looked at Jin Cheom with his eyebrows furrowed and then rested his chin.

It seemed unlikely that he would get scared and turn away if he found out about Cheonglimbu.

However, the content was too extensive to just give a rough overview in a situation where we do not know when Chae Se-yeon will return.

“It’s not too late to go back and listen leisurely.”

“I don’t know what it is, but don’t give me a dangerous mission.”

“okay.”

“do not forget.”

“It’s engraved in my bones. “I will remember this for the rest of my life.”

Jincheom furrowed his eyebrows only after hearing the confirmation.

As he closed his eyes to sleep, Dang Bi-hyeon looked blankly at the bonfire and collected his thoughts.

‘There’s a lot of work to do when I get back.’

Yang Howie, Namgung Seobaek, and Dangyeong.

Before they leave, we need to see if they have done a good job with the tasks they entrusted to us.

And I also needed someone to take care of Jincheom for the time being.

He boasted that he would be able to move in a few days, but he can still barely turn his neck due to the accumulated miasma.

There is a strong possibility that something like that will happen even after returning to Hubei, so we will have to find a loud-mouthed lawmaker somewhere.

The most important thing was the Hubei Festival.

“Autumn will begin by the time we return… .”

Dang Bi-hyeon corrected his chin resting posture.

This is the season when fallen leaves make your cheeks blush and the refreshing breeze cools off the sweat you shed all summer.

This fall, the Hubei Festival, a festival for warriors of political factions, will be held.

In his past life, the Hubei Festival presented Tang Feixian with light and darkness at the same time.

Since all the prominent figures of the political factions, including the Gu faction and the Five factions, are gathered in Hubei, it becomes easier for them to be active in other regions.

Cancer naturally made Hubei a sanctuary that could never be touched.

And Tang Fei-hyeon, who returned to the past, was in a situation where he had to enter Hubei on his own.

‘During the Hubei Festival, there are more warriors than civilians in the streets.’

How to move during this period was something to worry about.

I felt like I should listen to the opinions of my colleagues.

In the end, everything could be decided only after returning to Hubei and observing the situation.

Just as I was sorting out my thoughts, I heard footsteps from behind.

“Are you sleepy yet?”

“I was going to lie down when you get back.”

“There’s no need for that.”

“You never know.”

Chae Se-yeon advised Dang Bi-hyeon to rest quickly as there were no animals around.

He chuckled as he lay in bed.

Confirmation that Kang Hyuk is not Dang Bi-hyeon.

Besides that, there was a harvest.

* * *

Yangtze River covered in fog.

A ferry boat floated on the calm water.

The boat that Dang Bi-hyeon and his party paid the fare to return to.

Coincidentally, the owner of the boat was a boy who had a connection with them.

Chae Se-yeon smiled with joy.

“You are the one who told Sunnoya that it would be dangerous to launch the boat.”

“Yeah, well… .”

The boatman boy turned his head and answered stiffly.

The hands that were rowing the oars were particularly strong.

Jincheom, who was lying down at the end, chuckled.

“I’m completely entranced.”

“No!”

“No, it doesn’t matter. “Her face is red and she hardly makes eye contact.”

When I boarded Sunnoya’s boat, I covered my face with a veil.

Wasn’t it the way to leave the Apostolic Training that made you throw away your veil in the first place?

Therefore, the boatman boy fell in love with Chae Se-yeon at first sight.

Chae Se-yeon asked in a soft tone.

“How are you Sunnoya?”

“Uh, about that. Sunnoya always disappears in the fall.”

“Live?”

“yes.”

The boy still couldn’t bear to look at Chae Se-yeon.

I simply rowed faithfully and explained.

“I travel here and there to dig up medicinal herbs, and thanks to this, when the boatmen get sick in the winter, they can go to Sun Noya instead of an expensive doctor.”

“I see.”

Jincheom muttered something to himself.

“I don’t know his face, but hey, he’s a very kind person. “I want you to be my grandfather.”

Just like that, Jincheom and the boy exchange trivial stories with each other, while Chae Se-yeon, who is sitting between them, never stops smiling.

Dang Feixian thought while maintaining a casual expression.

‘Sunnoya’s son was an imperial official. Your mouth must be heavy.’

However, it was difficult to attract him.

Sunnoya seemed completely uninterested in worldly affairs.

Since the boy said he had ‘disappeared’, there seemed to be no way to meet him in the first place.

The issue of loud-mouthed lawmakers has come back to nothing.

Dang Fei-hyeon glanced at Jin-cheom and clicked his tongue.

‘It would be great to learn the poison technique, but it’s not without its own set of troubles.’

Jincheom picked the boy.

“Why are you only looking ahead?”

“… “I need to focus!”

“Your ideal type is behind you?”

He twitched and tried to continue speaking.

“Quickly turn around… .”

That moment.

Chae Se-yeon and Dang Bi-hyeon hardened their faces at the same time.

“quiet.”

“quiet.”

When the two urged at the same time, Jincheom and the boy opened their eyes and closed their mouths.

Jincheom moved his eyes left and right to ask what was going on.

But I had no time to pay attention to him.

Dang Bi-hyeon increased his internal strength and strengthened his five senses.

Shuuuu──.

It was not just the sound of water, but the sound of rushing water hitting my ears.

Chae Se-yeon narrowed her eyebrows.

She conveyed the situation as concisely as possible.

“Large ship.”

The sound of water suddenly got closer.

“iced coffee… .”

The boy’s face turned white as he held on to the oar with both hands.

Everyone slowly raised their heads.

A shadow fell on the ferryboat.

The height of the boat that emerged through the fog was five times higher than the height of the boatman boy.

There was no doubt about its overall size.

A shirtless giant was looking down at the ferry boat with a wry smile.

he shouted.

“Guys, a guest has arrived!”

Jincheom glared at the giant.

There were usually one of two cases where a large ship floated on the Yangtze River.

It is a government ship or a ship owned by the imperial family.

“The Yangtze River Waterway… .”

They are either thieves who prey on the weak by avoiding government elections.

There was no need to muffle my voice when I had already been caught.

Dang Bi-hyeon stared at Chae Se-yeon.

“What should I do?”

Before Chae Se-yeon could answer, Jin Cheom intervened and added.

“There must be a backbone of this size. “If you’re really, really, really unlucky, it could be extreme.”

“That’s right, lady.”

What should I do?

Chae Se-yeon, who received Dang Bi-hyeon’s gaze, commanded quietly.

“You know.”

“I obey your orders.”

Dang Bi-hyeon stepped onto the boat and easily climbed onto the ship.

Even a light step was enough to defy gravity.

The enemy looked very nervous after witnessing Tang Fei-hyeon’s movements.

The confident attitude of the giant suddenly changed.

“Chae, chaeju!”

I called out to my superior and retreated.

The geohan who ordered his men to surround Tangbi County was relieved to some extent.

“It looks like you’ve been acting like a charlatan for a while, but will you be able to deal with us who have mastered hand techniques alone?”

“Do I look like a charlatan?”

He is truly a man with no discernment.

Dang Fei-hyeon chuckled.

The giant warned, taking out a mace along with a broom on one side of the ship.

“Okay, take your pick. “What do you want to be called, customer or bastard?”

“What do you mean?”

“Either pay the toll, or take some of us straight to the underworld!”

Dang Bi-hyeon looked down at the ferry boat for a moment to check.

Chae Se-yeon gave him a look of trust.

“… “I decided.”

Dang Bi-hyeon raised his hand to the sword.

Slurp!

The enemies each drew their weapons.

However, instead of pulling out his sword, Dang Bi-hyeon put his other hand into his bosom.

Soon after, he took out an iron coin.

Ting!

The iron sword that made a clear sound flew through the air and landed in front of the giant.

The giant narrowed his brows and lowered his eyes.

An iron coin falling on the floor and spinning.

Tang Feixian did not hide his sneer.

“That’s enough now, right?”

“what?”

“You paid the toll.”

“… “Is this a completely shit customer?”

“weird. “When I was young, I was told that I was like a well-behaved cat.”

A mere thief could not resist Tang Fei-hyeon’s tongue, which was trained in lies and deception.

The giant with a lot of blood on his neck gritted his teeth.

“I’m not even kidding… . “You are a bastard who invites disaster upon yourself.”

Tang Feixian’s eyes sank.

He never wished for disaster.

Disaster came first to him who hoped for peace, and now he was determined to kill that disaster and get rid of it.

To do this, we must become stronger.

‘It was a hassle, but it worked out well.’

Even though the water was quite calm, the boat rocked from side to side.

Right now, Dang Fei-hyeon was in a battlefield where it was difficult to maintain balance, and the right choice changed at every moment.

It was perfect for digesting enlightenment while examining the state of transcendence.

Sreung!

“Come on, fish lovers.”

The giant who could not stand it anymore spat and shouted.

“Kill that bastard!”
