The Grand Mudang Saga [Path of the Shaman]

Episode 242

“Cheongwoo, come and see.”

“Sa-sa-suk, wait a minute.”

Cheong-sang, almost crying, is trying to dissuade him, but Cheong-woo approaches with a puzzled expression.

The sound of Chungwoo’s approaching steps sounded like thunder to Cheongsang’s ears.

Jerk off… Huh?

A strange energy passes by Cheong-sang, who tried to slow down Cheong-woo by raising all his energy.

For a moment, the blue statue quickly scans the surroundings with a cold, stiff face. His hand was already touching the handle of the sword.

“Sasook.”

Jinmu looked a little surprised at the call of the blue sky.

Did you only feel blue?

it’s quite

I asked her to raise her, and she grew up and sat down. By the way, it’s not just bamboo shoots after the rain, what kind of guy grows so fast?

Jinmu smiled and glanced to the left.

A weakly pulsating flow of air. Jinmu was natural, but he must have been surprised that Cheongsang caught his presence.

“Don’t take it out.”

Jinmu gently pressed Cheongsang’s hand that was touching the sword and shouted into the empty air.

“come out. I got caught, man.”

“…”

At Jinmu’s words, the atmosphere flinched and then changed into a single shape.

It was Hwangshin who returned to the Eunwidan.

He felt the presence, but the emperor who suddenly appeared in an empty space wearing a mask made Cheongsang very nervous, and Jegalsansan and Chungwoo, who did not even feel it, were belatedly frightened.

I tried to check Chung-wu’s skills, but Hwang-sin appeared and steam leaked.

It was something to check later.

By the way, Hwangshin kept trying to say hello to Jinmu, but he didn’t know what to do because there were eyes around him.

“Okay, let’s eat together.”

“…”

“Come and sit down.”

Jinmu, who had the Hwangshin sit next to him, called for Chungwoo.

“Cheongwoo.”

“yes?”

“I need to grill some more meat.”

“…yes.”

Cheng-wu stuck out his mouth and started grilling the meat with his blunt hands.

“That sasook. Is this this person?”

Jinmu looks at Hwangshin because of Cheongsang asking with wary eyes.

It’s worth limiting. Since he appeared in hiding while wearing a mask in a trap in the palace, anyone would be suspicious.

“He’s…”

What do you say?

After thinking for a while, Jinmu opened his mouth.

“…a younger brother I know.”

“Yes?”

“You know, my brother. What’s wrong?”

“Oh no, that’s not it…”

When Jinmu glared at him, Cheongsang waved his hand with a puzzled expression.

I was curious, but there was no need to doubt that he was the younger brother Jinmu knew.

“Take off your mask too.”

“…?”

The emperor opened his eyes in amazement.

It’s not that the reaction is incomprehensible. As secrecy is their life, it is natural that they are extremely reluctant to let their faces be known.

but what?

Anyway, Cheongsang and Cheongwu have a lot to see in the future. Aren’t all three of them the ones Jinmu decided to use as his subordinates?

Although the time has come a little earlier, it is the moment of the historic reunion (?) of the subordinates.

“Take it off.”

At a short command, Hwangshin finally took off his mask.

“…uh?”

“…to?”

As soon as Hwangshin’s face was revealed, Jegalsansan and Cheongsang were surprised with the same expression.

“why?”

“That… that’s cute. very.”

Cheongsang speaks, and Jegalsansan nods eagerly in sympathy. Hwangshin’s expressionless eyes turned cold.

“Oh sorry. Sa-suk introduced him as a younger brother he knew, but he had excellent stealth skills that could not be caught even in the slightest, so I thought he was quite old. I didn’t expect him to be a really young boy…”

“I just thought he was petite…”

Hwangshin’s eyes became even fiercer at Cheongsang and Jegalsansan’s apology. If Jinmu wasn’t by his side, he felt as if he would pull out a dagger and fly away at any moment.

Well, he’s small and cute… It was rude to a warrior for the first time.

Come to think of it, how old is the Hwangshin?

Jinmoo was also a little curious.

“The emperor.”

“…?”

“How old are you?”

At Jinmu’s question, Hwangshin spread ten fingers once and nine times as if to show off to everyone.

“W You mean nineteen years old!”

“No, but how can you look like that!”

Cheongsang and Jegal Sansan burst out at the same time.

They were much older than they thought.

Looking at her fine appearance, I wondered if she was around sixteen.

While Cheongsang and Jegalsansan couldn’t hide their surprise, Cheongwu, who had been bullied, brought a plate full of meat with his cheeks swollen.

“sleep.”

Cheongwoo put down the meat platter in front of Hwangshin.

“You haven’t eaten, so eat.”

At Jinmu’s words, Hwangshin carefully picked up the meat and put it in his mouth, then looked at Chungwoo with a slightly surprised expression.

Coriander knows how to recognize Coriander.

It is clear that he admired Chungwoo’s skill at grilling meat.

“I’ll see you often from now on, so say your name.”

“How often?”

“okay. He’s been hanging out with me lately.”

“…ha together.”

At Jinmu’s words, Cheongsang gave a slightly bitter expression. It was envious.

Cheongsang always wanted to perform the mark together with Jinmu. I wanted to learn from him, and I wanted to see with my own eyes how he always walked the right path.

It was respect and envy. For the Qingsang, Jinmu was not just an adult of a monk, but an idol.

“This is Cheongsang, the second disciple of the shaman.”

“This is the mountain of the Zhuge family.”

“…”

At the greetings of Cheongsang and Jegal Sansan, Hwangshin silently lowered his head.

“Ah or something…”

asked Cheongsang carefully, puzzled, and Jinmu said as if he had just remembered.

“Ah, I misunderstood too, but he knew how to say it.”

“is that so?”

“okay.”

Jinmu looks at Hwangshin.

“Hwangshin. just tell me Don’t keep your mouth shut.”

Even after permission was granted, Hwangshin could not easily open his mouth with a hesitant expression.

“Take it easy. Maybe we’ll become a family later.”

“…?”

one family?

The shaman disciple and the silver guard of Sapaecheon were puzzled by the fact that he was not an enemy but a family member, but the order was dropped.

Now, Jinmu’s words are far ahead of those of Eunwidanju Myung Se-chan. Because he was the new Heavenly Lord to whom Myung Se-chan was loyal.

“I am the emperor.”

“Ah, you are Prince Hwang. i look forward to.”

Hwangshin nodded lightly at Cheongsang’s apology, and Jinmu sent a telegram to Hwangshin.

[By the way, what’s going on?]

[A musketeer is waiting nearby.]

[The enemy?]

[Yes. After sending Cheonwoongbang back, he seems to have come here separately from the iron sword lord. He is now with Lord Eunwidan.]

[Hmm, I got it.]

After hearing about the place where Jeoksaeng is waiting, Jinmu looked at his Sajil and Hwangshin for a while.

It’s a good opportunity.

There’s nothing wrong with getting to know each other’s faces now. After all, don’t young guys become close quickly when they talk?

And, as a bonus, when Chun Woo-myeong came…

Jinmu hurriedly got up from his seat as he licked his lips at the sudden thought.

“Where is Sasuk…

? ” I’ll get you some alcohol, so I’m having a little talk with Hwangshin.”

“yes? If it’s alcohol, I asked the openers…”

“Beggars’ alcohol doesn’t taste good. I’m not going to get you something else. I was even treated to meat by Chung-woo.”

“No, that Sasook…”

The moment Cheongsang was about to say something, Jinmu was already running away.

Looking at the back, Cheongsang thought.

How could Sasook find alcohol in the middle of Cheopcheopsan…

But I thought that if it was Jinmu, I would definitely get it.

Thinking of Jinmu, who made Cheongsang embarrassed as always, he smiled and turned his head.

“Chemm!”

“Hmm.”

There, Jegalsansan and Chungwoo were coughing hard, unable to overcome the awkward atmosphere.

* * *

“Are you here?”

Upon arriving at the place that Hwangsin informed, the soldiers of the Jeongmu-maeng appeared and disappeared at the same time as Myeong Se-chan and Eunwi-dan, and Jeok-saeng and Chun Woo-myeong greeted Jinmu with polite greetings.

“I’m going back, what are you doing here?”

“Because it seems like you haven’t been reporting on the progress lately.”

“What about the progress report…”

Jinmu laughed at Jeoksaeng’s words.

“So how are you? I heard you were attacked.”

“Thanks to the Heavenly Lord moving Hao Mun to warn us in advance, we were able to block it well.”

“Praise.”

“It is true. Otherwise, we would not have been able to respond appropriately. Rather, I heard you fought one of the enemy’s chiefs. How are you feeling?”

“I should have said hello to Se-chan, so you must have heard everything, right? Let’s not repeat useless stories.”

At Jinmu’s words, Jeoksaeng smiled and bowed his head.

“Okay, what about expanding your power?”

“It is going without a hitch. Excluding Gansu, we expanded our forces to the borders of Shaanxi throughout Gansu and the northern part of Sichuan and the eastern part of Qinghai, and obtained 12 small and medium-sized breakwaters under the Sapae Stream.”

“It went pretty quickly.”

“It is all thanks to the support that God sent through the will.”

“Don’t flatter me.”

“I was just telling the truth.”

“Nucksal… I didn’t know what to do at first, but now he’s become a real soldier.”

Let Jinmu laugh.

“Isn’t this what you wanted from me?”

The enemy responded with a smile.

It is said that a seat makes a person, but it turned into a monster without seeing it.

Jinmu, who paused for a while, looked at Jeoksaeng and asked.

“About when, you guessed it?”

“yes?”

“To break down Sapaecheon.”

“Well, it will take at least a year.”

“one year?”

“yes. Even if you attack from the outskirts and expand your forces, the nature of Sapaecheon is not easy. If Yu Yue-cheong directly participated in the battle…”

That’s right.

Expansion of Cheonungbang’s power in rebellion.

It will approach as a great threat to the nature of Sapaecheon, and it is certain that Yueqing will not leave him alone.

Chun Woo-myeong and Myung Se-chan after Won Gong. From the three kings of Sapaeo to Jinmu.

In terms of martial arts, this side seems to be much more advantageous, but the power of Sapaecheon was still huge, and they alone could not handle the power of Sapaecheon’s nature.

It’s a question of quantity, not quality.

Considering the total power, if we went into an all-out war, our side’s win rate was less than 30%.

The problem is that we should not rush into an all-out war.

I am not afraid to bet on the low probability of Samhal. However, when Yu Yue-cheong leads the soldiers outside for an all-out war, Cheonzhong Mountain becomes empty.

No matter how chaotic the situation was due to the actions of the three palaces, there was no way that the Jeongmu-maeng could just leave it alone. The nature of Sapaecheon in Cheonzhong Mountain, which is like their heart, must have been a thorn in their eyes for a long time.

With all of that in mind, Jeoksaeng is slowly gaining power.

“A year is too late. Any other measures?”

Jinmu shook his head to express his displeasure, but Jeoksaeng was not taken aback at all. He must have already thought of another way.

“Don’t be shy and tell me the quickest way.”

“Since you ask, I will answer. First of all, we must induce division within nature.”

“split?”

“yes.”

“Do you have any plans?”

“I think we should start digging into their weaknesses.”

“Weakness?”

“yes. The current Sapaecheon has changed not only because of Yuwolcheong’s ugliness, but most of all because of financial difficulties.”

“Go ahead.”

“As you know, what drives Sapa’s drones is money.”

know don’t know

With money, we eat, drink, buy weapons, and sometimes even martial arts.

Is that all? If it is money, there is no reason why you can’t buy it with loyalty in the yard that ghosts are in the middle of the day.

There is a limit to giving and losing.

Saffians don’t pay their allegiance if nothing happens.

“If you cut off that funding line, the effect will come in a month or two.”

“Good idea.”

Jinmu nodded.

“A total of five places are responsible for the finances of Sapaecheon today.”

“…The green thief’s metallurgical party, the dark quarters. Where is one?”

“This is the Shanxi Chamber of Commerce.”

“Shanxi Chamber of Commerce?”

Jinmu tilts his head.

I had never heard of a name like that.

Myung Se-chan, who was next to him, helped explain as if he had read Jinmu’s thoughts.

“Shanxi Chamber of Commerce was created after the death of the Heavenly Lord, where merchants from the Shanxi region gathered.”

“That means it’s going to be quite large.”

“yes. Strangely, however, the investigation into the Shanxi Chamber of Commerce was not easy.”

“what? Is it only the top?”

“yes. Are you intentionally preventing information leaks? Very little is known.”

Ho?

It’s fun. Fooling Haowen’s eyes with one of the top topics?

“Find out.”

“yes.”

Myung Se-chan immediately bowed his head in response to Jinmu’s short order.

“Okay then, that’s it.”

A faint smile appeared on Jinmu’s face as he rose from his seat.

Although many years have passed, Myung Se-chan and Chun Woo-myeong felt a strange excitement welling up in their faces, which were as sinister as they were then and now.

“Woomin.”

“yes.”

“Full support for all the plans that Jeoksaeng wants to do with the Iron Sword.”

“I’m already doing that, Lord.”

“strong.”

“yes.”

“Give all the information to the enemy and find the location of Salmak from now on. I’ll have to go find it myself.”

“All right. If you can appease Salmak, it will definitely be a great help.”

“An enemy.”

“yes.”

“It’s unlikely that an all-out war will happen right away, but just in case, sign an armistice agreement with the government. It moves after that.”

“All right.”

At Jinmu’s words, Jeoksaeng nodded. That, too, was already in mind.

Jinmu, who gave all orders, looked at Myung Se-chan after organizing his thoughts for a while.

“Anything else you want to say?”

“I’m sure there are courtiers in Sapaecheon too, right?”

“I will.”

“Search in secret.”

“All right.”

Jinmu had no intention of forgiving those who fearlessly touched what he was aiming for, and he had no intention of breaking the promise he made to the child in the unknown village.

He said that he would find and kill all those who put a knife in his hand.

Alright. Then now.

“Woomin.”

“yes?”

“Have you brought any alcohol?”

At Jinmu’s question, Chun Woo-myeong grinned and took out a bottle of wine from his bosom and held it out.

I knew it.

Even though it’s stupid, it seems scary that it’s an imprinted habit. No matter how urgent the situation was, I was the one who always had my drink with me.

“That God.”

“huh?”

Jinmu glanced at Myeong Se-chan’s call.

“Where did God send you?”

“I left it here to make friends with the shaman’s sajil.”

“…If you say get to know me? no way? speak?”

“why? What’s wrong?”

“…that’s not a big deal.”

Suddenly, Myung Se-chan smiled awkwardly.

“Hurry and go…. You might have a really new experience with the angels.”

“…?”

What new experience… Do you want to jump right in? Knives all over again?

Well, at that age, it’s the law to show off your strength and set the rank.

Anyway, I have to go back. It’s a place where a large group of warriors of the political faction are encamped, so it’s not good to stay for a long time.

Jinmu, who received the bottle of wine that Chun Woo-myung had given him, quickly moved on.
