Episode 262
Discovery of Fire (6)
Whiiiiing!
The sun set and the world suddenly became dark.
The darkened sky was as pitch black as the darkness that had fallen on our hearts.
“…Is that all?”
“hmm?”
The official smiled wryly.
“I guess you just called me here to drive a wedge between me and the Moyong family?”
Yeon Ho-jeong tilted his head.
“I’ve felt this for a long time, but you tend to overestimate yourself.”
“what?”
“Poison and memorization are scary. But we are all in the Murim Alliance. “As long as it is within the boundaries of the Murim League, this is something scarier than poison and memorization.”
Yeon Ho-jeong patted his head.
“Do you understand? If you want to kill me with that poison and memorization, you will have to risk your life. Even if you kill me, the party has no choice but to lose its leader. But not those who use their brains.”
“….”
“They control the world with just one head. And Moyong-gun is also seeking to expand his faction and his power with too sharp a sense of perspective to be considered a simpleton.”
“It’s like playing with kids like that…”
“You’re wrong.”
Yeon Ho-jeong said seriously.
“As you said, this is a play. However, while children’s house play ends when the sun sets, adults’ house play ends only when one of them dies.”
“…!”
“This is why I watch and fear Prince Moyong. “That’s why I confront him and run around until my feet are sweaty in order to somehow hit him in the back of the head.”
“so.”
The official asked sharply.
“What do you want to say? “Don’t join hands with that guy and go back to twenty-four thousand?”
“Then die.”
“What?!”
“If you end your training with Prince Moyong and return to Sacheon, the Tang family will inevitably be wiped out.”
Suddenly, something amazing came out.
The official’s face turned red.
“That’s not even funny.”
“That’s what I said. That’s really not funny. “You really don’t know anything about the world to think that someone who has already stepped into the mud will be able to return home safely.”
“…!!”
“Our play house will not end until Prince Moyong dies or falls.”
The official, who was glaring at Yeon Ho-jeong as if he were going to kill him, spoke as if chewing out each and every word.
“What a long talk. “Get to the point.”
“Don’t get involved in partisan fights, but be a public ambassador.”
“…what?”
I never thought something like this would come out. The party was inwardly surprised.
Yeon Ho-jeong smiled.
“I would like to ask you to stick with us, but the truth is that neither you nor we trust each other. However, if we return to Sacheon, Prince Mo Yong will somehow accuse the Tang family of martial arts and burn them to the ground.”
“How can you be sure of that?”
“Because a knife out of my hand can harm me at any time.”
“….”
“Look. Even though you joined hands with Prince Moyong, you still don’t know anything about him, right?”
The official’s cheek twitched.
Yeon Ho-jeong continued.
“Go to the public ambassador. Go and help him. “As you know, the public ambassador’s sincerity and consultation are so great that everyone in the world recognizes them.”
“….”
“It’s not too late. “Stop acting like a child and be with him.”
“…That’s funny.”
“I’m funny too. “I never thought you would be so speechless.”
“Moyong-gun, he’s going to point to me as the culprit?”
“maybe?”
“Why do you think that? “I wouldn’t be able to come back from this place alive today without a clear explanation on that matter.”
Yeon Ho-jeong took out a handkerchief from her pocket as if she had been waiting.
The official frowned.
“What is that?”
“Take it.”
Yeon Ho-jeong threw the handkerchief.
Ugh.
The handkerchief that flew away due to the powerful internal force was caught in the hand of the official.
“What are you planning to do?”
“Take a good look at the handkerchief.”
The official frowned and looked down at the handkerchief.
“What is this…?”
For a moment he flinched.
‘What is this smell?’
Yeon Ho-jeong said.
“It’s quite light, but isn’t it quite thick? I didn’t think it was something I could just ignore, so I asked soldier Dang Sang-ah for advice. And do you know what she said?”
“…Hearing poison.”
“As expected, you know very well. exactly. “Soldier Dang Sang-ah said the same thing.”
There was disbelief on the officer’s face.
“can not believe it. Listening reading is one of the best readings in the family. “Where on earth did you get this poison?”
“From the source of the rumor.”
“what?”
“This is a poison extracted from a guesthouse outside the Murimmaeng Fortress, where Prince Moyong began his work. “It’s been a while, but the poison still remains.”
“…!!”
“I feel bad for Tang Sang-ah soldiers. Listening poison itself does not harm people. However, I heard that it is possible to poison someone to death at any time by reacting to the internal energy of someone who has learned the three yang techniques of the Tang family.”
The official’s eyes trembled.
“Do you understand? “The person who sprayed the poison can be seen as spraying it on his subordinates in order to cut off his tail in case an investigation is conducted.”
“….”
“But. “Have you learned Samyang Gong?”
“….”
“No. “The only people who have learned martial arts based on Samyang Gong are you and Soldier Dang Sang-ah.”
Yeon Ho-jeong’s eyes sparkled.
“Would Tang Sang-ah soldiers have sprayed this? “I don’t think so.”
The party official didn’t think so either.
No matter how good Tang Shang’er’s skills are, he cannot steal the listening poison from within the Tang family.
It was the same even at the hotel. Because the extreme readers of the Tang Family Vision are protected by all kinds of institutional devices and laws, it is impossible to secretly steal it unless you are a Shengcheon Thirteenth Place.
Moreover, Tang Sang-Ah had never been exposed to hearing reading except when she was young. So how did this poison, which can only be made at the Tang family, leak out to the outside world?
“It was Prince Moyong’s doing.”
“…Nonsense.”
“I don’t know how he got this poison. “But would you do this if it weren’t for him?”
“Stop talking nonsense! Do you know what kind of poison it is?! “In a forbidden area where even an elder cannot enter without the permission of the head of the family…!”
“Then it will become an even more certain trap. “It is a forbidden poison that no one can steal, so could there be another culprit besides Mr. Tang?”
“…!!”
The hotel was completely frozen.
Yeon Ho-jeong’s eyes became dull.
“I hate Mr. Moyong. But I have no doubt about his abilities. “If he wants something, he will do anything to get it.”
“….”
“I hope you don’t take your time and become his footstool, but wipe your blurry eyes and look at the world.”
Yeon Ho-jeong turned around.
The official, who was looking down at his handkerchief blankly, shouted hysterically.
“this guy! “Can’t you stand?”
Yeon Ho-jeong looked back at the hall.
“My business is done.”
“Shut up! “If you take one more step without my permission, I will melt you into a handful of blood!”
Yeon Ho-jeong chuckled.
“If you can, try it.”
After saying those words, he turned and walked away again.
It really goes. Despite the extremely excited officer’s threats, he showed no hesitation in his steps.
The pupil of the hotel turned dark green.
“You brat!”
Piuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuut!
An intangible wind was shot out at incredible speed.
It was a fearsome martial art. The speed of the earth wind was faster than Mukbi’s arrow. It would be no exaggeration to say that it was truly a beam of light.
A fire lit up Yeon Ho-jeong’s eyes.
Fuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuu! Grumble!
The earth wind was shattered and scattered by the single strike of the red flame. A red-hot flame ignited in the scattered earth wind, and the poison carried in the earth wind burned up as it was.
The official’s eyes wavered.
‘Stop it?!’
I was so excited that I couldn’t properly carry out the poison, but it was a powerful wind that could pierce even an iron plate. Yeonhojeong blocked the storm with his bare hands.
Not even with both hands, but with one hand.
“There’s something I didn’t tell you.”
“…?!”
“For this meeting, soldier Dang Sang-ah asked me first.”
“…what?”
“No matter how deep the rift, a father and daughter are still a father and daughter. Soldier Tang Sang-ah said he did not want to see his father fall miserably. That’s why you asked me to persuade you.”
“…!!”
The official’s eyes shook as if there had been an earthquake.
He remembered his daughter’s voice.
‘It’s a life you gave up before you set out. If you want to take it away, please do so. Let’s wait.’
The sight of my daughter turning around after saying that with a smile was truly cold-blooded.
The museum couldn’t help but feel helpless.
I came to visit because I was worried about Abby, but the rift between father and daughter only deepened. Since he was a doll, his martial arts skills were taken away and he only made ugly noises.
Emotions and confusion that cannot be described in words.
Yeon Ho-jeong said to Dang-gwan, who looked up at the sky for a moment, feeling helpless.
“If you’re planning on getting into trouble with Moyong-gun, it would be better to avoid places where the two of you are alone.”
“….”
“If you want to argue, argue in front of everyone. “That way, Moyong-kun won’t be able to talk nonsense either.”
“…What kind of trick is that again?”
The officer’s voice sounded particularly helpless.
Yeon Ho-jeong shrugged his shoulders.
“I benefited a little from soldier Tang Sang-ah on this mission. “I’m not saying this for you, but for our soldiers, so you don’t have to thank me.”
“….”
“I’ll just leave.”
Yeonhojeong escaped from the forest and found his way to Pagungak.
At that time, Dang Sang-ah appeared in the alley.
“Are you finished?”
“okay.”
Yeon Ho-jeong said with a confused face.
“I did it because they said it was okay, but is it really okay?”
“Sure.”
“….”
“If severing the alliance with the Moyong family is ultimately beneficial to my father, I must accept the immediate confusion and pain.”
Yes.
It was Tang Sang-ah who sprayed the listening poison. And what made him angry when he met the official was also a pre-planned production.
Yeon Ho-jeong sighed.
“I’m sorry.”
“When the commander says that, I actually feel sorry.”
“It may have taken some time, but I’m sure we found a way. “There was no need to push yourself this hard.”
“Commander.”
“…say.”
“Do you know what I learned while working on this practical team?”
“….”
“It’s the importance of time.”
Tang Sang-ah laughed bitterly.
“Anyway, my father is trying to kick me out of the family. “They don’t really care about exploiting the affection between parents and children.”
“….”
“If I can just do this to get my father out of this dirty mess, that’s enough.”
Yeon Ho-jeong, who was quietly looking at the situation, suddenly asked.
“Do you have time?”
“yes?”
“Do you have time now?”
“Ah yes.”
“Let’s go to Pagungak. “Mukbi is still about to eat, so let’s eat together.”
“I’m okay…”
“I’m not okay. let’s go.”
“…yes.”
So the two people headed to Pagungak.
“But the listening comprehension. “Where did you get that from?”
“I made it.”
“You made it? “Extreme reading of the party’s vision?”
“I learned everything about martial arts, poison, and memorization from my grandfather.”
“…Dark King.”
“Your father probably doesn’t know yet. “The fact that you can make listening poison by mixing medicinal ingredients that cost only a few pennies.”
“….”
“I guess my father and daughter are destined to live like this. Maybe we will never understand each other.”
* * *
Noon the next day.
bang!
Mo Yong-gun, who was eating with Deungcheongyo, a long-time member of the Namgung-in Gonggong faction of Namgung-gaju, Yonghwajin, a member of the Hwasan faction, was surprised to see a person who came in unexpectedly.
“Dangaju?!”
“Oh, the matriarch has come?”
The official glared at Mo Yong-gun with cold, shiny eyes.
At that moment, Moyong sensed something was wrong.
Yonghwajin quietly got up from his seat.
“Let’s take a seat…”
Then the officer said in a somber voice.
“Is it true that they are targeting the public ambassador?”
