The Grand Mudang Saga [Path of the Shaman]

Episode 129

With Dam Pyeong-Ik’s order, those with their backs against the wall jumped up with their hands clasped together as a stepping stone.

The silence that followed after Eulmuban and Chiljo jumped over the fence.

For some reason, I couldn’t hear the sergeant’s quarrel at all.

That’s right!

A front door that opens immediately.

“Rush in quickly!”

Along with the cry of Okdang, Hyeonmudanju, soldiers rushed into the entrance.

At the same time, the sheep fire that rose up from the center of the wall floated high in the air and swept down.

“…!”

does not exist. I don’t see a single mouse.

“What is this?”

Yang So-bang descends into the interior of the manor, where only desolation lingers as if no one had lived there for a long time.

The warriors of the Tang and Zhuge families who had pushed in from the South and North Gates were equally astonished.

“What is this about!”

While Yang So-bang was confused, the head of the Jegal family’s Uichang-bun-gaju ran along with Dangwi.

“Look all over the inside! Search for traces of the enemy!”

Firefighter Yang, who gave the order, jumped right into the battlements in front of him.

jump!

The door opens, revealing what’s inside.

no one is visible

Obviously, the beggars of the open world did not neglect to watch from the outside after discovering the traces of the Three Palaces.

Could it be that he ran away from surveillance?

Firefighter Yang shouted at the soldiers who had entered the palace together with a distorted expression.

“Find the traces. If the people in this huge manor escaped and went unnoticed, there must have been a passage somewhere inside. Hurry up!”

“yes!”

At the command of Firefighter Yang, unmanned soldiers began to search the entire building.

Some secured books and documents, and some looked for traces of secret passages that might exist.

“Bheun!”

Bae Geuk-ryeol, an unmanned soldier of the Hyunmudan, hurriedly lowered his head.

“Organizations have been found.”

“It’s a secret passage!”

“yes. Currently, the head of the Uichang Bun family is looking at it.”

“Okay. Let’s go.”

A modest hall built in the depths of the manor that runs like flying along Bae Geuk-ryeol.

It was not very large, but the entrance was wide with a structure in the shape of ‘匚 (hye)’.

When Yang So-bang arrived, Jegal Hyeonseong, the head of Uichang-Bunga, was examining the stone statue in front of the palace.

“What happened?”

“It looks like the entrance will open soon.”

“hmm.”

Yang So-bang waited impatiently.

And then, Zhuge Hyeonseong immediately touched one of the stone statues.

kugung. Hard.

One side of the yard in front of the hall rose up, revealing the entrance to a huge passageway.

“also! These guys ran away through this place.”

While Yang Xiaobang’s face was distorted, the party leader and the military men of the party arrived belatedly.

“I will check.”

“Be careful.”

“yes!”

Hyeonmudanju, Okdang, lit a torch and entered the entrance of the secret passage with the warriors.

But just as soon as they cross the entrance and enter the darkness.

Click.

A terrible noise was heard.

The smell of sulfur stings your nose.

no way?

Yang Firefighter straightened his face and screamed.

“Hyeonmu Danju!”

Whoa, whoa, whoa!

With a wild explosion, the entire entrance collapses.

My ears were deafened by a gigantic explosion that shook the entire manor.

Unfortunately, the explosion didn’t end there.

There must have been a trap designed to work in a chain, and an explosion sounded sequentially from all the halls in the manor.

bang! Kwak! bang!

The inside of the manor instantly turns into a sea of fire and all the palace buildings collapse.

Soldiers inspecting the inside screamed in pain as they jumped out here and there with their bodies on fire.

Literally, it was an abyss. Everyone was confused by the hell that was created in an instant.

“Ah…”

Yang Xiaobang couldn’t say anything at the scene that had changed horribly, and only let out a deep sigh.

“Fire sheep! I have to back off! An explosion of this magnitude would soon be noticed in the coffin. If we don’t quickly settle down and step down, we’ll all get caught up in it!”

An urgent cry is heard.

buried

Clues to the palace they had barely pursued were disappearing in the blazing flames, along with a huge exploding manor.

* * *

Buuuuu –

The sound of a horn sounding long with sadness gently shakes the front yard of the Jeongmu-maeng.

The corpses covered with white cloth lay between the warriors in white robes standing in a row.

Everyone was silent in indescribable fury.

Twenty-two soldiers belonging to the Jegal Bunga and Tang families of the Jeongmu Maeng were injured and fifty-seven were killed.

Those who entered the secret passage with Hyunmudanju Okdang could not even find the body.

Their funeral was held under the bright sun.

It would have been nice if it rained.

If that was the case, I would have been able to hide the flowing tears.

The stiff faces of the warriors looking up at the platform did not know how to straighten, and the flowing tears continued to drip and wet the floor.

just below.

sunny day.

The cold wrath of the political affairs alliance, which will never forget today, filled the son-in-law as if foreseeing the coming war.

* * *

While the funeral was being held, a meeting was called by swordsman Cheol Ji-ryang somewhere in the Jeongmu-maeng.

Daegunsa Jegalhyeopjin Yongbonggwanju, etc. Yeopyeong Biheun Yangsobang, the heads of the unmanned corps under the Jeongmumaeng, and the warriors in charge of liaising with each faction all gathered.

Because it was an urgent meeting, the leaders of each faction were not able to attend, and only warriors to deliver the message gathered.

The atmosphere at the conference hall was very solemn as a funeral was being held for an incident that occurred in Uichang following Sacheon.

“I think everyone has heard of it.”

At Cheol Ji-ryang’s word, even the cautious whisper disappeared.

“Great army.”

“yes.”

Everyone’s eyes were focused when the Jegal Hyeopjin stepped forward.

“I think everyone has heard about the incidents in Sacheon and Uichang.”

Jegal Hyeopjin explained about the group called ‘Gung’ that they had secretly pursued.

“You mean from five years ago?”

“That’s right. However, in reality, we did not know about their identities, so we focused on the investigation and did not inform each faction.”

“hmm.”

When Jegal Hyeopjin beckoned, a soldier from the military department brought 32 previously prepared scrolls and passed them one by one to the liaison officers.

“This is a condensed version of what Meng has been researching on the palace so far.”

Those who received the scrolls confirmed the contents and hardened their faces in misery.

In it, the events that happened in the region of the munpa to which each belonged were written in detail.

From little things they never cared about to things they already knew.

“Listen, everyone!”

Cheol Ji-ryang raised his hand to calm the buzz that filled the conference hall.

“Through this incident, they turned out to be a hostile force to the Political Alliance. Seeing it accordingly, the leader declares them the achievements of the political faction following Sapaecheon Ilwolmakyo. Those who attended the meeting, immediately inform the faction to which they belong and spread it to all subordinates.”

Declaration of war by the political leader.

His will, which he declared at the headquarters of the Infinite Jeongmu League, will be known to everyone who names the faction.

“I take orders!”

As soon as Cheol Ji-ryang finished speaking, everyone finished answering and the liaison officers hurriedly left the meeting room to deliver the news.

It was a story that signaled the start of another fierce battle, so I couldn’t hesitate even for a moment.

The only thing left in the empty meeting hall was Cheol Ji-ryang, Jegal Hyeop-jin, Yang So-bang, and Deung Yeopyeong looking out the window.

“Has the Dark Emperor returned?”

“yes. After the case of Uichang, he said he would independently investigate.”

“It’s like that friend.”

In the first place, it was Dangwi who visited Hubei Province with Yang So-bang to catch the Samgungju.

Seeing that Uichang’s work was completed and he returned to Sacheon at the same time, he missed the enemy’s tail, so he was about to prepare for the next one.

Cheol Ji-ryang knows his duty well.

After he goes back, Danga will move with full force. Above all, Eun-won is a clear great man.

Most people would think that the Tang family’s influence was limited to Sichuan, but they were mistaken.

It was a Tang family that had reigned as the emperor of the Sichuan for hundreds of years.

Because they prioritize the interests of their family over their pride as samurai, their collaborators extend to the government and the military. And its loyalty rivals that of the Demonic Cult.

There is a saying that government officials do not abide, but can there be any reason to keep such a thing? He will try to use everything he has to achieve his goal.

Even if openness collects information from all over Moorim, there will always be blind spots. Tanga’s tenacious movements would fill that invisible angle.

“There must be a strong wind blowing.”

“I guess so.”

Cheol Ji-ryang nodded at Yang’s words.

“From now on, we will be busy too.”

“Because now I have to accomplish the things I had originally planned, one by one. In the future, Yongbong Crown Lord will have many things to do.”

Yang Xiaofang slightly turned his head, and Deng Ruoping smiled.

“The people who will make up the Gapmuban have already been selected. From now on, Yongbonggwan will continue its original goal.”

Deng Yeoping took out a small piece of paper from her bosom and held it out, and Cheol Ji-liang read the names written on it one by one.

There were eight in total, including Cheongsang of the shaman of Hyeonsan in Hwasan, Cheon Yongdeok of Cheon Yong-deok, Jegal of Sansan, Haenam of Hyeonsan, Namgung Changwi, and Hwang Bo-ung of Ibaek.

“All of them are children who showed outstanding skills in each group.”

“Good. Deungwanju and Daegunsa should carry out full-fledged education centering on them.”

“All right.”

After Deng Yeoping and Zhuge Collaboration withdrew, only Yang Xiaobang remained.

Cheol Ji-ryang looked at the unfinished funeral procession with dim eyes.

“It’s a pity. I only suffered damage because I couldn’t hit the back drum…”

“You damn bastards. I should have expected something like this when I found out you were involved in the gunpowder trade.”

The firefighter’s face frowned.

“How could you have known that? But I missed a clue, so that’s my concern.”

Yang Xiaobang shook his head at Cheol Ji-ryang’s murmur.

“no. How can we be sorry that the interrogation of the prisoners continues in the Tang family? We will find another clue soon.”

“hmm.”

“They will definitely pay for this.”

It was only after the funeral procession had disappeared that far out the window that Cheol Ji-ryang’s gaze was withdrawn.

“Did he go to Kunlun?”

He knew perfectly well who he was asking.

“no. However, as they say they move slowly while wandering, they will arrive soon.”

“He’s a great guy. You did a great job.”

“Isn’t it a shaman swordsman? As his ancestors did, he will always be of help to Moorim.”

“well. But when I first saw him, I had the feeling that he was going down a different path from us.”

“….”

“You reproduced the enemy combat armor?”

“yes. I didn’t even notice myself.”

“okay. It should have been. Because I would have been out of my mind Anyway, it seems that the party has been quite satisfied with it. If it’s enough to give away the family’s notation.”

“yes.”

“Hehe, let’s see. What is the shape of the Moorim he goes to?”
