Possessing a Murim Clan’s Youngest Son - Chapter 162
Episode 162. The eyes of all
attending Buddhist monks were focused on that.
At the same time, Bok Yeonhwa and the two elders jumped out of the carriage.
Han Ibi went a little closer and looked at it.
As Han Ibi said, traces of effort, like the prints of a person’s palm, were visible on the outer wall of the guard post.
Lee Shin-song said while tilting his head.
“That’s strange. It’s strange. “How come the tree wasn’t broken, but instead had a handprint on it?”
On the other hand, Yeonhwa Bok was reaching out and feeling the traces.
Nam Cheol-hong said.
“Hmm. Is this also a plan to steal the attention of our Blue Star faction? “It appears in The Art of War…?”
Then Han Yi-bi pointed towards Wang Tae-yu and said.
“Looking at Wang Dahyeop’s expression over there, it doesn’t seem like it was pre-calculated.”
It’s not that he was so embarrassed and didn’t know what to do.
Han Ibi asked him.
“Wang Daehyeop. “Are there any other guests besides us?”
Even in the midst of his bewilderment, Wang Tae-yu shook his head and answered.
“exactly. Since this is a meeting to decide on a new faction and faction, witnesses approved by the Murim Alliance are expected to attend.”
“Who is that?”
“As far as I know… people were scheduled to come from Sacheon Dangmun and Amipa, invited from Sacheon, which has easy passage.”
Han Yi-bi looked back at Bok Yeon-hwa and asked.
“Does this palm martial arts technique seem to be related to the Four Heavenly Dangmun or Amipa?”
Yeonhwa Bok slowly shook her head and said.
“I have never heard of such martial arts before.”
“Hmm… I see. “What could this be about before such an important meeting?”
Yeonhwa Bok said.
“It would be a good idea to go in further first.”
“yes.”
Bok Yeon-hwa and the elders returned to the carriage and Han I-bi got on the horse again.
Wang Taiyu also got on his horse and set off with a look full of worry.
As the atmosphere was atmospheric, there was a heavy silence during the movement.
Could I have run about half way further?
There was another building there that looked similar to the guard post seen earlier.
The place was also quite empty.
Han Yi-bi asked Wang Tae-yu.
“Is there someone stationed at this guard post?”
“exactly.”
“Hmm… Then there is a high probability that something happened that we weren’t aware of.”
Wang Tae-yu must have been thinking at that time, his expression hardened and he looked at Han Yi-bi and said,
“Isn’t it possible that your Cheongseong faction did some trick?”
Ebi Han said.
“Not at all. “No matter how much we hate the Jeomchang faction, would the Murim Alliance have done such a shameful thing?”
The truth is, this person has no reason or time to commit such a high-level trick.
It was then.
Ok Geun-tak, who was driving the carriage ahead, spoke urgently as if he had discovered something.
“There is something ahead.”
Han Ibi opened her eyes in the direction he pointed.
At that time, Bok Yeon-hwa’s voice was heard from inside the carriage curtain.
“What’s going on?”
Then Han Ibi answered.
“It appears to be a person. “You’re lying on the floor.”
Lee Shin-song, who was sticking his head out of the curtain, said.
“You can see it from this far away?”
Ebi Han said.
“You better go and check it out.”
As soon as he finished speaking, people started moving there.
It was then.
Wang Tae-yu jumped off the horse again and ran away.
He panted as he approached the figures lying on the floor and examined their condition.
Hanibi also quickly approached them and checked their breathing.
Then he shook his head and said:
“Wrong. “You’re already out of breath.”
“Aaaah!”
Wang Tae-yu cries out.
Han Ibi asked.
“Do you know these people?”
Wang Taiyu huffed without saying anything.
But that was enough of an answer.
The people in the carriage had no choice but to come out again.
Even So Eun-ri, who is notoriously calm, looked embarrassed.
At that time, Han Ibi said.
“As expected, these two were disciples of the Jeomchang sect. Right?”
Han Ibi said while looking at the body.
Yes.
Surprisingly, two of the three bodies were wearing the clothes of merchants in the Ahwon Guest House.
And the other person was wearing the black robe characteristic of the Jeomchang sect.
Nam Cheol-hong, who saw that, frowned and said.
“Why are they… dead here?”
At that time, Han Yi-bi calmed down Wang Tae-yu, who was still crying with anger, and asked for understanding.
“Let’s take a look at these people for a moment.”
Han Ibi said as she looked around at the bodies.
“One person died from a broken neck, and two people each have the same handprints engraved on their backs and stomachs as we saw at the guard post earlier. King Daehyeop. “Do you have any guesses?”
Wang Taiyu was still in shock, shaking his head violently.
Han Ibi observed the injured area caused by the craftsman in more detail.
“ah!”
A shout came out without me realizing it.
This is because the injured area, that is, the area where the palm touched, was bruised as if it had been scalded by fire.
Ebi Han said.
“It’s a strange funeral. King Daehyeop. “I think it would be a good idea to quickly enter the grounds of the Jeomchang Sect.”
And then he quickly got on the horse.
The rest of the people also got on their horses and carriages.
Then, as Han Ibi said, he hurriedly ran towards Jeomchangpa.
The entrance finally appeared.
The signs and plaques at the newly built entrance were showing off their splendid grandeur, as if to commemorate the new member joining the old group.
The members of the Qingcheng faction, who would normally have looked at this scene with a frown, had no choice but to pass it by without hesitation due to the circumstances.
Wang Taiyu said.
“The grounds are narrow, so the carriages and horses must be left here.”
Originally, it would have been accepted by an elderly person or child doing chores, but there was no one to welcome them.
So, there was no choice but for the Qingcheng faction members themselves to hitch their carriages and horses anywhere.
Afterwards, Han Ibi and her companions crossed the entrance and walked further inside.
There were spectacular views as beautiful as Cheongseongsan Mountain, but there was no way I could see them.
At that time, a rumbling sound was heard.
Also, a large number of human figures were seen forming a group like a cloud in front.
What stands out the most is, of course, a group of monks.
Han Ibi rubbed her eyes and looked at them, wondering if they were monks from Shaolin Temple, but their clothes were very different from the monks’ uniforms in the central plains.
Moreover, there were some people who had shaved their hair,
but most of them had long, natural hair, which felt unfamiliar.
And surrounding them were many men in casual attire…
No matter how you looked at them, they did not look like monks.
At the same time, there was another person who stood out: Amifa’s Bai Mihu and Wang Qinglin.
Next to them, an old woman with gray hair appeared, and the energy radiating from her appearance was similar to seeing a fortune-telling flower.
Han Ibi thought.
‘Hmm… I guess that old lady is Amipa’s long-faced wife, Yu Qinghua.’
There was also someone who stood out.
It is the Danghoyeon Bridge and Dangbaekmun Gate of Sacheondangmun Gate.
How could we forget their faces?
As Wang Tae-yu said, it seemed like he was here today as a witness.
And the rest of the crowd.
They were Jeomchang’s disciples wearing black attire.
Each of them was distracted by the other.
So it seemed like no one paid attention to Han Ibi and her group walking in from the entrance.
Han Ibi took a deep breath and suddenly spoke loudly.
“With the magical energy of Mount Qingcheng, today the disciples of the Qingcheng Sect want to take on the challenge of fortune telling, and I hope that the master of fortune telling will be happy to welcome them!”
No energy was injected.
Because I didn’t want to cause any unwanted trouble.
But I think it was enough to get people’s attention.
The eyes of all the soldiers gathered in the front yard of Jeomchangpa were focused on Han Ibi.
At the same time, there was someone who took a step forward and responded,
“Are you here? “Since you have come all the way from Qingcheng Mountain, I would like to extend my warmest welcome to you on behalf of the Jianchang Sect.”
A middle-aged man who is very tall and has beady eyes.
It was the state tax office, a long story of an ambitious fortune-teller.
His gaze was aimed precisely at Bok Yeon-hwa.
Bok Yeon-hwa said in response.
“Thank you for your kindness.”
Han Ibi thought.
‘scent. A character is a character. It’s clear at a glance that you’re in a difficult situation, but you boldly greet me as if nothing happened.’
It was then.
“Ohh! Has Jangmun Bok of the Qingcheng Sect finally arrived?”
A monk with a massive head that is twice that of an ordinary person and four times the size of an ordinary person.
Unlike other people, he had his head shaved like the monks of the central plains.
The solid muscles exposed here and there on the pitch-black skin were shining in the sunlight, revealing an even stronger side.
“I am a practicing Buddhist monk at Pomnyun Temple. haha. He also serves as the head priest of Beomnyun Temple.”
His pronunciation was different from the Han Chinese, so it was a bit awkward, but he spoke clearly, so it was relatively easy to understand.
Anyway, as the situation turned out this way, Bok Yeon-hwa had no choice but to reciprocate.
“This is a repeat of the Qingcheng faction.”
The wizard grinned, showing his teeth, and said.
“It is as beautiful and ancient as the rumors say.”
From the very beginning, what kind of bizarre nonsense is this?
Bok Yeon-hwa frowned as if she was offended, but did not say anything.
However, the magistrate Gyeoncham spoke cheerfully.
“I thought Jangmun was coming with plenty of money, so I had a little chat with Jangmunin first.”
Yeonhwa Bok said.
“I never heard of any other guests coming.”
“Actually, I wasn’t particularly invited. “I decided to come and see you so suddenly because I thought you might get worried if I told you about it.”
“Are you admitting that you are being very rude?”
Then, the magistrate made a blank expression as if he had just been punched, and then said with a chuckle.
“As expected, you are as bold a heroine as the rumors say.”
Yeonhwa Bok said.
“It is useless to distinguish between men and women in the Gangho.”
“Okay. Good. “I was wrong.”
At that time, Bok Yeon-hwa turned her gaze and asked the state tax office.
“How did this happen?”
After hearing that, the State Tax Office snorted ‘Hmph’ and said bluntly.
“I don’t want to apologize to Jangmun Bok or pollute my mouth, so it would be better for you to ask him directly.”
Then the judge laughed out loud and said:
“It looks like you both are really displeased with us coming as uninvited guests. It is true that it is troublesome to say it twice, but the beautiful Bok Jang-moon is not anyone else…”
“Please, please cover your words even if you have a dirty mouth!”
People’s eyes focused on the protagonist of those words.
It was Han Ibi.
He continued speaking with a smile.
“If you keep saying things like that, Master will be angry and it will be difficult for me as well. “I’ve been good at pleasing people so far, but is the monk going to blow me away with one blow?”
At those words, laughter came out here and there.
Then, although he was a very sly and expert wizard, he spoke with an angry expression as if he was offended.
“joy. There are bound to be presumptuous things everywhere. “We’ll see.”
“ah! “I really wanted you to say that.”
People’s eyes focused on Han Ibi again.
“I mean, let’s wait and see, but there’s no one that’s scary. “I feel relieved now.”
So laughter erupted again.
When this happened, the enraged magistrate shouted.
“Inoom! How dare you try to provoke the main monk…”
“You enemy!”
Then the magistrate looked at him again with a questioning expression.
It was Wang Tae-yu.
“How dare you harm a disciple of the Daejeomchang Sect and still think you will return safely!”
Then the expressions of the Jeomchang sect disciples changed completely.
I assumed that they had broken through the guard post, but when I actually heard that fact, my fever rose.
“Don’t get excited.”
