The Party Will Not Fall - Chapter 79



Only Krnovel

Sigh!

The throat was cut shallowly, but it did not go deep enough to be fatal.

This was the result of carefully adjusting the power so that he died of blood loss.

Dang Bi-hyeon, who was holding Seol-gwang’s neck with both hands, whispered with a sad expression.

“The party has come to ask for your sins.”

“Oops! “Wow!”

As soon as the hand that was holding his collar loosened, Seol-gwang collapsed helplessly.

Coo!

The boat shook because of its massive size.

Dang Bi-hyeon climbed over his body and entered the cabin.

I walked inside, ignoring the clutter.

Finally, in the deepest and most obscure location, I was able to find a room with a triple door and a diamond lock.

If the lock is strong, just break the door.

The kicks were fierce.

bang! bang! bang!

Dang Bi-hyeon entered the room.

One wide piece of burlap was covering something.

I don’t know what it was, but it wasn’t small.

Or maybe there are a lot of them.

‘Is this it?’

I grabbed it right away and removed it in one go.

The identity of the item was revealed.

Tang Feixian’s face hardened.

“… “Are you sane?”

Cheonglimbu, they were doing something crazy.

ferry.

The boatman boy was suppressing nausea and taking deep breaths following Chae Se-yeon’s guidance.

“Inhale. slowly.”

“Hmm.”

“Exhale. Likewise, slowly.”

“Whoa.”

“Good job.”

“thank you… .”

The boy started taking deep breaths again.

Chae Se-yeon looked at the boat.

Just a moment ago, there was a lot of metal noise and screaming, but now all I could hear was the sound of water.

The battle seemed to be over.

But there was no sign of Dang Bi-hyeon returning.

‘No way, Hyuk got killed in Dong-Gwi’s death… .’

Chae Se-yeon suddenly woke up feeling anxious.

At that time, Dang Bi-hyeon showed his face on the railing.

“lender!”

“You’re safe.”

“I think you should come up for a moment.”

“what’s the matter?”

Chae Se-yeon stiffened for a moment at the answer she received.

“This is an issue that cannot be spoken about.”

Chae Se-yeon, who came aboard the ship, followed Dang Bi-hyeon deep into the cabin.

Chae Se-yeon’s expression became mysterious when she saw the torn door and the unlocked lock lying around.

“What happened?”

“You may have seen the person lying in front of the cabin earlier. “This is a guy named Seol-gwang, Jang-gang Su-ro-chae and Daduchae-ju.”

Dang Bi-hyeon told everything that had happened on the ship, except for the part about Cheonglimbu and himself.

Chae Se-yeon immediately caught the pulse of the story.

“Did you call me because of something in that room?”

“you’re right.”

Dang Bi-hyeon stood next to the door frame.

Chae Se-yeon passes by him and enters the room.

Just like Dang Bi-hyeon’s reaction when she first discovered it, her expression hardened.

Dozens of boxes were stacked tightly.

Looking into the top box, I could see its contents.

“Hyuk, this… .”

“The Great Lord’s prediction is probably correct.”

Dang Bi-hyeon followed her in and scooped up a handful of the contents.

Black stone dust with a rough texture flowed from my palm.

“gunpowder.”

“Nonsense… .”

Chae Se-yeon touched her forehead.

It was too serious an issue to simply be described as a nuisance.

Rather, it would be more appropriate to call it the spark of terror.

“Smuggling gunpowder, this is ridiculous… .”

In accordance with the principle of non-aggression on government affairs, the imperial family is not involved in whatever happens in Wulin.

However, there are cases where the imperial family draws its sword without delay.

This is when elements that could threaten the existence of the imperial family were discovered in the martial arts world.

And gunpowder was clearly a threat to the imperial family.

In the first place, gunpowder was a monopoly that was monopolized and controlled by the state, so from the moment it was stolen, the dynasty was disrespected.

Moreover, gunpowder is used in artillery, and artillery destroys castle walls.

This strongly suggests that there is a possibility of rebellion somewhere in the martial arts world.

Dang Bi-hyeon thought as he looked at Chae Se-yeon, who was speechless.

‘It’s not like the Cheonglimbu is collecting gunpowder to use in fireworks.’

Chae Se-yeon, unable to hide her embarrassment, looked back at Dang Bi-hyeon.

“What do we do? I don’t know what will happen to the imperial family if this fact becomes known… !”

This was a solid justification.

It would not be strange if the imperial family came forward and swept somewhere, and it was not strange if the target was the Murim Alliance.

It could be said to be negligence in management, or it could be used as a pretext for fact-finding.

It would be nice if it ended with simply issuing a subjugation order for the Yangtze River ditch.

Chae Se-yeon has learned throughout her life that the world does not work out so ideally.

She struggled, shrugging her shoulders as a chill ran down her spine.

If we leave the ship like this, the gunpowder may be found by someone and end up somewhere else.

However, if you take it with you as evidence, there is a possibility that it may be misunderstood that the Murim League stole the gunpowder.

“Let’s throw it in the river.”

Chae Se-yeon raised her head as the warmth wrapped around her wrist.

Dang Bi-hyeon stopped her as she unconsciously bit her nails.

He continued.

“If we want to move on without any room for conflict, we need to dispose of the gunpowder. All you have to do is throw it in the river and return to the village and report it verbally.”

“… “I think that’s best.”

After Chae Se-yeon gave permission, Dang Bi-hyeon swung his fist at the wall where the boxes were piled up.

Quaaaang!

The middle of the hull was open and the watery fog outside was visible.

There is no need to carry boxes one by one.

Chae Se-yeon chuckled without realizing it.

“Have you been affected by Sapa? “Why did you become so extreme?”

“I used to be like this.”

Plop!

A box of gunpowder that fell into the rainwater sank below the Yangtze River.

Chae Se-yeon opened her eyes.

“The boat… .”

“I don’t think there’s any need to sink the ship. “There are only corpses of enemy enemies, so if someone finds them, it will quickly attract attention.”

“If you leave it here, you might notice that there is gunpowder in the riverbed… .”

“I don’t know much about gunpowder, but I know it’s useless if it gets wet.”

“Then I’m relieved.”

After completing their business, Chae Se-yeon and Dang Bi-hyeon left the cabin.

Jincheom asked a question to the two people who returned to the ferryboat.

“I heard the sound of something being dropped into the water. What happened?”

“It is nothing.”

Tang Feixian shook his head left and right.

His expression was quite heavy, considering he had said it was nothing.

Jincheom noticed this and spoke lightly so that it didn’t seem to mean anything.

“okay. “If you want to talk later, just say so.”

Tang Feixian’s complexion was quite different from that of a simple woman.

The condensed milk was no different.

‘I thought it was just an organization that wanted to control the martial arts faction from behind.’

The discovery on the Yangtze River was a turning point in his thinking.

I had a strong feeling that the Cheonglimbu was not simply an organization for building its own vested interests.

On the way back to Meng, Dang Bi-hyeon did not neglect to practice fortune-telling and herbal medicine.

This was because an intuition called alertness penetrated his mind so strongly.

* * *

Hubei urban area.

The street was much more crowded than before Dang Bi-hyeon left.

The majority were warriors.

With such a noisy scene unfolding before my eyes, I could clearly feel that the Hubei Festival was just around the corner.

Chae Se-yeon muttered as she watched the Hyeonmudan dancers running around busily.

“The Hyeonmudan must be very busy, with all kinds of warriors and even peddlers flocking to the area.”

There were many instances of people apologizing to each other for clashing with weapons on their belts.

The Hyeonmudan rushed out to stop the warriors who were grabbing each other by the collar.

Dang Bi-hyeon, carrying Jin Cheom, silently followed Chae Se-yeon.

I saw a heated street.

‘At this rate, there will be a lot of unmanned people wandering around at night.’

To that extent, there will be restrictions on Dangbihyeon’s activities.

The next goal was to stop gunpowder trafficking, and it would be difficult to do this all fall.

Anyway, now was the time to be faithful to Yuhyuk.

I followed Chae Se-yeon up the stairs to Murimmaeng for the first time in a long time.

“Please identify yourself.”

The door was open as there were many customers, but the gatekeeper’s strict inspection was the same as before.

Chae Se-yeon took out the Maengpae from her arms.

“Chae Se-yeon, the king of Chusal.”

* * *

Dang Bi-hyeon and Chae Se-yeon, who returned to the Murim Alliance, dispersed to do their own things.

Chae Se-yeon left to report the events to General Na-gyeol.

And Dang Bi-hyeon carried Jin Cheom on his back and headed to the pharmacy.

The purpose was to entrust him to the pharmacy as the poison from his entire body had not completely disappeared.

The best policy was not to reveal Jincheom’s existence, but there was no way to keep it a secret from Chae Se-yeon and bring him to Hubei.

The best advice is already wrong.

Therefore, the next best option was to choose a pharmacy to have Jincheom nearby.

“I’m sorry, but he can’t take it.”

Dang Bi-hyeon asked a question about the lawmaker’s refusal with a mixture of kindness and firmness.

“Why is that so?”

“We only treat people who are the master’s attendants or guests. “We apologize for not being able to help you because that is the policy.”

“no. understand.”

Dang Bi-hyeon left the Murim League carrying Jin Cheom on his back.

For now, I had no choice but to grab the cup and leave it inside.

Jincheom grumbled.

“Just looking at them, they seem like they would say something like that to a dying person. “I just ate it.”

“I would actually do that. “Because it’s a principle.”

After going in and out of several guest rooms, Dang Bi-hyeon found an empty room and placed Jin-cheom on the bed.

“hungry.”

“Hold on.”

After leaving the guest house, Dang Bi-hyeon returned to the Murim League.

I was planning to meet with Namgung Seobaek and Tang Yong within a few days, but I changed my schedule because of Jincheom.

Could it be that there is not a single member of their network with a spirit of service?

The first place Dang Bi-hyeon headed to was Jigaekdang.

“Is there a head of the party?”

“He is in the office. “Would you like me to tell you something?”

Dang Bi-hyeon nodded and asked the gatekeeper.

“Please ask if I can see you at midnight today.”

“yes!”

The gatekeeper hurried inside.

After a while.

When he returned, he recited Tang Yong’s message.

“He said he couldn’t do it because he was planning to return home at that time.”

‘To my house at midnight.’

Tang Feixian nodded.

“All right.”

Next, Dang Bi-hyeon arrived at the Senate.

Just as he had done with Tang Yong, he asked him to convey the message to Nangong Seobaek through the gatekeeper.

However, the words delivered this time were quite different from before.

“Please ask if I can see you at midnight today.”

“yes. for a moment… .”

“Oh, and.”

In accordance with the promise made with the party administration, the royal family was attached.

“Please be sure to tell me that I came because I couldn’t make an appointment because the head of the party was returning home.”

“All right.”

The gatekeeper who had been inside the Senate bowed his head and opened his mouth.

“He said it would be difficult to meet him because he was planning to go out.”

The gatekeeper who gave the answer to Dang Bi-hyeon felt sorry for himself.

However, the person concerned nodded without losing his expression.

‘i get it. ‘I too will go to Dangyoung’s house.’

Namgung Seobaek gave Tang Bihyeon the answer he had hoped for.

Dang Bi-hyeon decided to wait in the palace of the Chusaldae until the appointed time.

The entrance to the palace was guarded by a gatekeeper with a face.

“Ah, Vice President Yu. “I heard you came.”

“Perhaps the great lord…” .”

“You haven’t come here yet.”

It seemed like the report was in full swing.

Dang Bi-hyeon left the usual greeting and said, “Thank you for your hard work” and entered the palace.

As he turned the corner toward the office, what caught his eye was an unexpected person.

“Nangung Sohyeop.”

“Oh, are you here?”

Namgung Tae.

As the deputy leader of the Cheonradan, who cooperated closely with the Chussaldae, he was no stranger.

However, it was awkward to see him sitting alone in the quiet hall with no one around.

It’s not even the unit he belongs to.

Namgungtae smiled bitterly.

“I guess you haven’t heard the news yet.”

Dang Bi-hyeon asked, maintaining a calm expression.

“What news?”
