The Grand Mudang Saga [Path of the Shaman]

Episode 246

“Did you hear that?”

“huh? what?”

“Someone stole the wild vegetables of Mt. Onam.”

“Mansanchae?”

“Amman. Yesterday, I went near Mt. Sohwa and heard it myself.”

“What does that mean?”

Yang-Ji and Jang-Chun, who were doing business with stalls spread out next to each other in the center of the huge Guando, were talking in whispers about the rumors that had been making a lot of noise lately.

Mansanchae was a very notorious place for those living near Mt. Onam.

Mt.

They were coiled there like snakes.

The problem is that you can’t turn around. This was because there was only one road leading directly to it, and taking a detour would cost several times more time and money.

That’s why the troupe and the flag had no choice but to bring the toll and offer it with a feeling of crying and eating mustard.

Of course, that led to the cost of transporting the ticket to the north and the price of the goods at the caravan several times higher, and the merchants who bought and sold the goods had no choice but to bear the full cost of the damage.

“It’s a really good thing for us, and the price of things will come down. It seems that the disciples of Hwasan did the right thing, right?”

“Eh? what kind of volcano? Did you really not hear anything?”

“huh? why?”

“It is not a volcano.”

“…?”

“I heard you called yourself a bandit?”

“bandit?”

“okay.”

At Yangji’s words, Jiangchen stared at him blankly and snorted.

“This person is talking nonsense.”

“huh?”

“Hey man, it’s the first time I’ve heard of bandits robbing bandits.”

“…That’s a rumor, by the way.”

“If he is not a disciple of Hwasan, he must be a bandit.”

“A rogue?”

“okay. People who do truly righteous things, after all, don’t boast about doing what’s right. Think about it, aren’t they all busy bragging about what they’ve done? I’m busy raising my prestige by saying that I subdued a bandit.”

“is it?”

“Amman. The one who scolded Mansanchae must have been a real villain.”

“Um…but apparently the people who helped it said they got a toll later on as well.”

“Yes. Rumors are nonsense. It must have been made up by those with stomachaches in addition to the rumors.”

“is it?”

“Amman. Well, even so, it’s obvious that other guys will take the place where Mansanchae is gone, but hearing that there is such a bandit who is cool on the inside. Come on, I can’t just listen to this good news.”

“huh? Where?”

“Where are you? I’ll buy you my drink Shouldn’t we have a drink on a day like this?”

“already? Is the sun still in mid-heaven?”

“What time is important to drinking? If you don’t come, I’ll go alone.”

Jangcheon happily walks on the stall and leads, and Yangji hurriedly follows.

“Go with me man! Wait!”

It’s a free drink, so what can I do?

Yangji and Jangcheon happily found a place called Iga Gaek, which was not very large even in Buhyeon.

Since Buhyeon wasn’t such a small city, there were more than 10 good inns besides that.

However, when it comes to places that people visit a lot, the people of Buhyeon definitely picked Iga Gaek.

It wasn’t that the food was particularly delicious or that there was a famous drink, but because he was also a sake master, he had the advantage of being very cheap.

That’s why it is crowded every day with merchants who live day by day and those who want to fill their stomachs with cheap taste.

And today there were a lot more people than usual.

Seeing that most of the noisy stories were about Mansanchae, everyone seemed to have come to have a drink during the day with the same mindset as Yangji and Jangcheon.

“ruler! Listen everyone! I heard a good rumor today to my heart’s content!”

As always, where rumors go, there are always people who show up.

plum blossoms.

It’s a rumor that everyone knows, but when they go through their mouths, picking up coins while walking on the street is adapted as an oral tale, and canning grass roots in the mountains is described as discovering an unprecedented spirit grass.

I know that most of them are exaggerated, but I listen to their stories and buy alcohol because I know that the stories that flow out of their mouths bring joy to a harsh world.

When Yangji and Jangcheon sat down at the table, the person who had already robbed Mansanchae had turned into a hero, an unprecedented thief.

And one corner of the inn.

swish

While Hwangshin is happy, he doesn’t eat rice and happily points his finger at Jinmu.

yes i know you are talking about me

No matter how much it is, I can’t believe that the young guy is pointing like he’s eating rice.

I wanted to tell him to just say it because it was all right, but when I left Samdo-pyeong, the cheong-sang begged me to never do it again and again, so I was guarding it for now.

“The emperor.”

“…?”

“Is that old man Hao Mundo we are waiting for?”

When Jinmu points at the old man who is talking hard on the table, Hwangshin smiles brightly and nods.

I see Somehow, rumors spread quickly. That’s mostly lies.

Anyway, Maehwaja’s face is familiar.

Was that old man still alive? The name line is also long.

Maybe it was a pleasure to think so, but Jinmu smiled and took a glance at Maehwaja before going into the private room of the inn that Hwangshin had booked in advance.

After a while, Hwangshin, who was standing next to Jinmu, who was training Mukryonghonwongong, pricked up his ears and glared at the door fiercely, then hid the dagger in his hand and opened the door.

The person who came inside was the old plum blossom, who had been inflating rumors outside just a moment ago.

Hwangshin, as if he already knew his identity, politely bowed his head and put his finger to his mouth.

“Hehe, I can see this guy. Don’t worry. Until the training is over, stay like a rat dead.”

The old man, Maehwaja, stood on one side and waited without saying a word so as not to interfere with Jinmu’s training.

“Whoa….”

After a long time passed, Jinmu breathed in the morale that filled the room and opened his eyes. Maehwaja hurriedly came forward and lay down.

“Haomen’s Yamyo Li family is meeting the Lord.”

know. I found out from the beginning.

How can you not know him who is Myung Se-chan’s mentor and whom he has met for a long time?

But there was no need to pretend to know. Because now he is the predecessor of Mukryong.

“sit down.”

When Jinmu moved to the table and suggested, the old man shook his head.

“How dare I…”

“Sitting noisy. It’s weird for no reason to sit alone with the old man kneeling down.”

After all, Jinmu was an adult for a while, but now he’s so used to his young body that he naturally thought that way.

At that, the old man smiled.

new dragon.

I’ve only heard of it, but it’s the first time I’ve seen it in person.

Hyukryeonmugang, who was the former Heavenly Lord, was like that. It was scary, but not formal.

The man who sat at the top and was the strongest person, but sat face to face with the youngest low-ranking warriors in Sapaecheon, drinking and laughing and chatting.

He said he was Mukryong’s ex, so even his personality is similar?

The old man reluctantly got up and sat down with Jinmu, and Hwangshin hurriedly filled the teacup for the two of them.

“You’re not going to be able to get enough of your bones, so why did you come here yourself?”

Despite Jinmu’s brusque tone, the old man was not offended at all and smiled.

“How can I send the lower ones to report to the Lord? And don’t worry, I’m still in good shape.”

“Good luck then. What do you want to know?”

“We haven’t found the exact location yet.”

“…”

Jinmu frowned at the old man’s words.

“But don’t worry. The five branches north of Haomen are doing their best, so we will find them soon.”

Jinmu nodded.

“Salmakju bastard. It must have been very heartbreaking.”

The cellar that Haomun is looking for under the command of Jinmu.

Originally, their dwelling place was Muryanghyeop on the border to Daemak in the north of Shaanxi, but disappeared after the friction with Yuyueqing.

If they make up their mind and hide, there is no one who can find the trace of Salmak in the middle plain.

They are called the ancestors of the killers of the central plains, so how can they be?

At least, since Haomen had been in contact with them for a long time, it would be possible to find even the smallest traces in the north.

Since Myung Se-chan met Jinmu, I heard that he had contacted Jinmu several times, but had not received an answer.

“There is no choice but to wait. What about the musketeer?”

“Negotiations with the Jeongmu-maeng are over. They said they would not care about what was going on in Sapaecheon’s territory as long as it did not encroach on their territory.”

“Good thing. Tell them to focus only on Sapaecheon for a while. For the time being, please refrain from any friction with the political affairs.”

“yes.”

The old man immediately wrote down Jinmu’s order and replied.

Sapaecheon didn’t seem to have to worry too much.

If it’s by force, Won Gong-hu and Cheon Woo-myeong will take care of it, and with Myung Se-chan’s information power added, it will be much easier to survive.

Now, I just need to find Salmak and return only the elders who were demoted by Yu Wol-cheong to their original positions.

Waiting with nothing to do seemed too boring.

“How about this side of Fuhyeon? Do you have the power of the Dark Knights or the Metallurgy Party?”

“Of course there is.”

“okay?”

Jinmu laughed at the old man’s answer.

I thought I could use it as something to pass the time while I was looking for the whereabouts of Salmakju at Haomun.

“What kind of guys are they?”

“There is a gambling hall under the Metallurgical Party and a go-between in the night market Heuksabang.”

“Damn, they’re all small puppies.”

The old man grinned at Jinmu’s grumbling.

Of course it should. If you are a person who will command Sapaecheon in the future, you must have that much confidence.

“Of course it is. However, there are many people whose names are well known because they are close to the nature of Sapaecheon.”

“okay?”

“yes. Moreover, it seems that the people on this side are also interacting with the Shanxi Chamber of Commerce, which is funding the most for Sipaecheon.”

“Shanxi Chamber of Commerce?”

I was slightly intrigued.

According to Myeong Se-chan, there seemed to be a lot of things hidden in Haomen, where it was difficult to get information easily.

And did I say that the current Sapaecheon headquarters is funding the most?

“Sounds like enough to kill time.”

“In my opinion, yes.”

Jinmu laughed at the old man’s words.

“good. Let’s spend some time looking around the gambling hall.”

“Then, I will prepare a few things, including a disguised identity and funds so that the Lord can work freely.”

“You know what.”

* * *

The outskirts of the prefecture greeted the night.

Jinmu was heading to a gambling den under the yeokgeumdang, disguised as a disguise that the old man had prepared.

Wearing a bast face, dressed in silk, and accompanied by the emperor and four escorts, anyone could see that he looked like a son of a merchant.

The streets of Buhyeon were very free-spirited, befitting a place belonging to the Sapa area.

Even though Murim people armed with swords roamed around with menacing spirits, far from thinking it was strange, countless touts were bargaining for them.

Wow Jangchang!

The walls of the inn are broken and drunken screaming and pulling out a knife, but no one cares.

Officials passing by the road only watched and did not think to intervene unless they caused damage to civilians.

Sapa’s area. It’s a very familiar sight…

Is it because of the short memory of living as a guru? Young doesn’t adapt.

“Whew… This is true.”

Shaking my head and walking, I arrived at a back alley where there was a gambling house before I knew it.

“Nush?”

As Jinmu and his party entered the gambling hall, they appeared in the dark with swords in their sleeves.
