Chapter 275
Episode 275: The criminal leaves a trace (1)
The destination is Jinryong Sanghoe, located in Hawon County, Guangdong Province.
Although it was about 200 miles away from the coastal village where we had previously stayed, it was not that far by martial standards.
It could have been reached in a month, but there was no need to rush, so we moved slowly.
When will you come to the southern region again? Everything will remain as an experience.
Joson never missed a famous spot and stopped by every neighborhood to taste specialties.
It’s been four days since we moved like that.
The destination was just around the corner.
“But how much is left for travel expenses?”
Eugene San’s exact assets are currently unknown.
This is because the granddaughter has been managing the money since Sacheon.
“Now we don’t have much left, so we have to use it sparingly. “We bought something expensive yesterday too.”
“Us? “You ordered the lobster dish, but didn’t you just eat some noodles?”
Yu Seol, embarrassed, grinned and changed the topic.
“Grandpa, but the autumn leaves are really pretty here. right?”
To the left was a lake, and to the right was a forest path with red autumn leaves.
In particular, the autumn leaves in this area were large and beautifully colored.
The beautiful scenery made me look around Mt. Yujindo.
“I see. “Now that I think about it, your mother really liked autumn leaves, too.”
“really?”
“Well~ Sometimes I would take a walk in the maple forest behind the house with my family.”
“Hi-Hi. “I guess that’s why I like autumn leaves, too.”
“Yes, that’s right. “It must be because you take after your mother.”
The face of the grandson, who was on a long-awaited outing, was filled with a happy smile.
As I walked further through the eclipse, I reached a fork in the road.
At some point, Yoo Seol sighed and said.
“But how long will that guy chase me?”
It was talking about a warrior from the Murim Alliance following from afar.
Joson had noticed the following from the beginning, but had been ignoring it for a while.
“Do you keep getting on my nerves?”
“huh. “You keep hiding and looking.”
He was only a first-class person.
Although they were chasing him from a distance of more than 30 miles, to Hyeon-gyeong’s sensitive senses, it was no different from within a stone’s throw.
I tried to just ignore it, but I couldn’t ignore it if my granddaughter was uncomfortable.
“hmm. “Then I guess I can’t do it.”
Suddenly, Jo-son’s new brother, who was walking down the street, disappeared.
The two disappeared like a mirage and were nowhere to be found.
Did he open his air and fly away?
After a while, a swordsman dressed in white light armor appeared at the location where they had disappeared.
“…?”
Grabbing the scabbard with his left hand, he stood and looked around. It was probably to find traces of the yin-yang twin monster that was following them.
But isn’t it impossible for experts who don’t even leave footprints to leave any traces?
No wonder I lost track of it at the crossroads.
After contemplating his direction for a moment, he flinched in surprise.
Because I heard a girl’s admonition coming from somewhere.
“You can hide and follow someone you don’t know, you can’t.”
The hair on the Murim Alliance’s swordsman’s entire body stood on end.
Only now did he realize that he had fallen for the trick of the yin-yang twin monster.
I wouldn’t even dream of running away anyway.
He shouted, bracing himself to suppress his fear.
“Yin-yang twin monster! “Did you think you could get away with disrupting the order of the rivers and committing all kinds of evil deeds?”
At that moment, a yin-yang twin monster appeared in front of his three heads.
Taaa-!
The two jumped down from a nearby tree and each said a word.
“What order is order?”
“Yes, I thought you would be safe.”
The swordsman of the Murim Alliance, who was faced with the yin-yang twin monsters, gulped dry saliva.
There were only two options for him.
Will you give up your pride and beg for your life? Or will you protect your pride as a martial artist?
Usually, it is common to choose the former rather than being killed. Because the difference between fame and martial arts was overwhelming.
Most of the enemies that the Yin-Yang Twin Monster had encountered so far showed that reaction.
But the swordsman in front of me was a little different. There was definitely a difference in the eyes.
Wow-!!
He pulled out his sword, lowered his stance and glared at the yin-yang twin monsters.
“You cruel bastards! “Did I look funny!”
It was a situation I could not understand at all. Why is the warrior in front of me so angry?
Yu Seol folded her arms and shook her head excitedly.
“You’re not trying to attack us with that. Shouldn’t it be?”
Jin-san Yu also listened to his granddaughter with a pitiful look in his eyes.
“It looks like you are still an inexperienced member of the Murim Alliance, so I’ll give you a chance. “If you kneel down and apologize right now, I’ll think about letting you go.”
Since the opponent was a novice, he was given one chance.
But instead, he narrowed his eyebrows and unleashed murderous energy.
“Don’t insult me! Do you think this Bang Yoo-cheol will bow down to Madu!?”
At that moment, Jinsan Yu and Seol Yu couldn’t hold back and burst into laughter.
I couldn’t help but burst out laughing.
“Puh hee. “You’re asking us to fight, right?”
“You have great courage. “It’s praiseworthy.”
In a situation where even the best experts are struggling, only the top experts are competing head-on.
Could it be that he was going crazy from fear? There was no end to the absurdity.
At that time, the warrior who introduced himself as Bang Yu-cheol narrowed his eyes and pulled his sword.
Immediately, a loud cry came out of his voice,
“Lee Yeo-yeop!!”
Soon, Bang Yu-cheol launched his final assault with a solemn expression.
It was a move that ignored defense, as if he sensed his end.
Among the yin-yang twin monsters, the one he chose as his target was the yin-yang monster.
Tat-!!
Yu Seol made no move as she saw him rushing towards her.
I just unleashed the momentum I had been building up.
Shoot!
It was not an energy that even a top-notch expert could handle head-on.
“…omg!?”
Bang Yu-cheol’s legs gave out before he could even walk a few steps.
His feet got tangled and he couldn’t keep up with the speed at which he was running and rolled around.
And then he ended up lying down at the feet of Eum-gae.
Slurp-!
Jinsan Yu looked at him fainting and let out a laugh.
“As you live, you see all sorts of crazy people.”
Meanwhile, Yoo Seol was squatting down and rummaging around in Bang Yu-cheol’s arms.
After a while. Suddenly, her small lips trembled and she let out a cry of joy.
“there is!”
“What do you have?”
When Yu Jin-san asked in confusion, Yu Seol hummed and showed him something.
“My loot~”
It was just two silver cats.
Yuseol was so happy that the harvest was bigger than expected.
While the granddaughter was putting the eunja in her purse pocket. Yu Jin-san was clicking his tongue as he looked down at Bang Yu-cheol as if he were pitiful.
“Tsk tsk. Think of it as the price of your life.”
Yoo Seol, who was in a good mood, started running and encouraged her to walk.
“Hehehe. Let’s go quickly, grandpa~.”
“OK. “It’s not far from here, so let’s run there at once.”
* * *
Jinryong Merchant’s Manor was crowded with people right from the entrance.
Merchants and bodyguards. And the size of the place, including the miscellaneous workers, was considerable.
“We are the martial arts people called Yin-Yang Ssanggoe.”
They only said one word at the entrance.
Then, the warriors guarding the entrance to the manor immediately handed over guns.
“I’ll take you inside.”
It seemed like Eunhwarin had given the hint in advance.
As expected, he was a man of great resourcefulness. Everything related to her is so refreshing.
Joson walked around the inside of the manor under their guidance.
The rare items on display here and there were stimulating Yu Seol’s curiosity.
“Wow…. What are all these?”
“These are all crafts made in Goryeo. “These are genuine products purchased officially through an importer.”
“So pretty.”
“These are items made by the best craftsmen. “You can see as much as you want.”
Jin-san Yu was also surprised in a different sense.
Heukyabang has grown to the point where it even has a hand in relay trade. It was now at a level where it could no longer be viewed simply as information.
After a while, they arrived at an old-fashioned hall located in the innermost part of the manor.
“Please wait a moment.”
After speaking, the warrior hurried inside.
Soon, a familiar woman’s laughter was heard from inside.
After a while, Eun Hwa-rin opened the door and came out to greet Jo-son with a happy face.
“I heard the news. “I was waiting for you every day to know when you would come.”
“It’s been a while. But did you hear the news? “Do you already know what happened on Haereung Island?”
Eunhwarin smiled brightly and answered.
“If you didn’t even understand that much, how could you say Heukyabang is an intelligence dealer? “Please eat inside, old man.”
“It’s still the same.”
“But I guess something good happened to you two.”
This is because the grandson’s face was always filled with laughter.
Yoo Seol, who was holding her grandfather’s arms, smiled and said.
“Something funny just happened. Would you like to hear it?”
“Yes, I’m curious too.”
The three sat across from each other at a table set up inside the hall.
As she was preparing tea, Yoo Seol explained what had happened a little while ago.
After hearing the whole story, Eun Hwa-rin burst into laughter.
“Ho Ho. oh my god. “He charged at you two with a sword?”
“That’s right, sister. “We almost died.”
“Oh my god. “He is probably the bravest man in the Murim Alliance.”
Jin-san Yu also smiled and said.
“You’re not afraid. What kind of pride can you risk your life for? But have you decided to settle here now?”
“No, old man. “Once the work here stabilizes, I will have to move to another place.”
“That’s amazing. “I’ve never seen anyone as driven and confident in getting things done as you are.”
Eunhwarin said with a faint smile as she filled Joson’s teacup.
“That’s too much praise. By the way, I gathered rumors from Haereung Island and found that the two of them were very active. But there are probably some things we don’t know, right?”
I guess I’m talking about something that wasn’t told to the southern martial arts people.
“You have great insight. Who do you think the warrior dragon was?”
“hmm. I heard that after occupying the island, the warrior dragon used poisonous plants to train fearsome masters. Could it be that he was trying to invade the Jungwon Forest?”
“That’s right. To be precise, he was a man of heaven.”
At that moment, a shadow appeared on Eunhwarin’s face.
“Personally, I was open to some possibility, but to think that my concerns have become reality… It’s serious.”
Yu Jin-san spoke softly while rotating the teacup with his fingers.
“Once the invasion began, the main force of the Tianzhu would move from Dunhuang in the west, and at the same time, the plan would have been to shake up the southern region using Hailing Island as a base.”
“yes. “If the warrior dragon had been left alone, something terrible would have happened.”
“I guess so. But… how can we be sure that there isn’t someone like Warrior Dragon somewhere in the central plains right now?”
“If there is, we must catch it. “We will do our best to investigate to see if there are any suspicious individuals.”
Jinsan Yu nodded once and got to the point.
“Please do so. Now, from now on, I’d like you to talk about the eastern martial arts forest.”
“Yes, old man. Even if that wasn’t the case, I was preparing.”
“You had a hard time. “Let’s take a listen.”
Eunhwarin spread the map on the table and brought out a handful of paper.
It seemed like he had done a lot of research while visiting Haereung Island.
After shuffling through documents for a moment, she picked up one of them and asked.
“Have you ever heard of a windwalker?”
As expected, the name of the person I expected came out first.
Jin-san Yu also became very curious about who he was.
