Possessing a Murim Clan’s Youngest Son - Chapter 86
Episode 86. There are no carp living
there. Yeo Nanju, who had opened the front door, was smiling with a proud expression.
‘Anyway, that old Jaesoo…’
Still, the advanced light technique that did not even make a landing sound was worthy of praise.
So Eun-ri said.
“Come on in.”
But Jong Li-hyuk seemed a little hesitant.
So Eun-ri urged.
“Didn’t we come here with the help of the Lord of Heaven?”
Only then did Jong Lihyuk’s eyes sparkle and he spoke.
“Let’s go in.”
The four men led the horse and went inside.
Ebi Han said.
“Just in case, let’s leave the horses tied to the pole.”
They got on their horses and walked inside the bureau.
A beautiful Chinese-style garden decorated the front yard.
I also saw a huge pond with floating lotus flowers.
Yeo Nanju said.
“Oh my, it’s such a pretty pond. “There are carp, right?”
At that time, I saw Han Ibi throwing a handful of sand and pebbles into the pond.
Yeo Nanju said in horror.
“What are you doing now?”
Han Ibi answered with a serious expression for the first time in a long time.
“I wash my eyes and look, but there are no fish.”
So Eun-ri said.
“That’s really strange. A rich family like Yeo Seon-pyo-guk….”
Jong Ri-hyuk said.
“Anyway, let’s go further.”
They walked a little faster.
Yeo Nanju said.
“The garden is very well maintained.”
So Eun-ri said.
“But why… can’t I see any people?”
Ebi Han said.
“That’s right. “It’s a bit strange not to see a single rat in such a large country.”
Jong Li-hyuk also nodded and said.
“Everyone be careful just in case.”
As they walked a little further, a huge building in traditional Chinese style, which appeared to be the main building, came into view.
When Han Ibi was about to knock on the door out of habit, So Eun Ri spoke.
“It would be better to just go in.”
Han Ibi also nodded and opened the door.
The door opened with a light noise.
The interior was a bit dark, but thanks to the sunlight coming in from the windows here and there, it wasn’t hard to see.
The four people entered inside, muffling their footsteps.
Yeo Nanju spoke in a whispering voice.
“Something… something doesn’t smell right.”
Jong Ri-hyuk put a finger to his lips and pretended to be quiet.
So I had no choice but to quietly walk in.
There were a ton of rooms.
It looked like a rich man’s mansion from a movie.
Han Ibi was nervous and looked at the door one by one.
But there was no one.
Han Ibi muttered.
“It feels ominous for some reason…”
So Eun-ri said.
“Could it be that you have already received a message and taken refuge?”
Jong Lihyuk said.
“Then that would be really fortunate.”
Ebi Han said.
“Let’s look around a little more and then go back. “We’re busy.”
Then a huge wooden door caught my eye.
Painted red, it looked twice as big as a normal door.
There was also a separate plaque engraved on top.
– Han Ibi from Ujudang (梅雨堂)
muttered.
“It’s quite a lyrical naming.”
This time, Yeo Nanju opened the door.
A ‘squeak’ sound rang out.
It was like a large auditorium where many people gathered.
There was a platform at the front that looked like a stage, and the floor was flat with bluestone.
So Eun-ri said.
“There’s nothing to be scared of.”
Ebi Han said.
“That’s right. But it’s so well-groomed. There is no sign of anyone leaving the place at all. “It’s also very clean.”
Yeo Nanju said.
“Could it be that you ran away after receiving the news in a hurry?”
So Eun-ri agreed.
“I think so. “I think we should just leave.”
Jong Lihyuk nodded and said.
“That would be a good idea. “Let’s go back now.”
Just as Jong Ri-hyuk and So Eun-ri were preparing to turn and leave, they heard Yeo Nan-ju’s voice.
“What are you doing if you’re not going?”
Jong Ri-hyuk and So Eun-ri turned around at the sound and saw that it was directed at Han Ibi.
It’s not that it wasn’t, Hanibi was bending over and staring at something.
Lu Nanju walked closer and looked at it.
It was pottery on a huge scale, befitting a continent.
The pottery, which was larger than a human body, had chrysanthemums painted on it with dark blue dye.
Yeo Nanju said.
“oh. It’s really pretty. “But I don’t think now is the time to appreciate this.”
Jong Ri-hyuk also helped.
“Let’s go back quickly.”
Han Ibi tilted her head and said.
“Wait a minute, bro. I guess this is….”
Then Jong Ri-hyuk walked slowly.
Jong Ri-hyuk, who had been watching the pottery for a while, also changed his expression and made a sound like ‘uht’.
Ebi Han said.
“yes? Isn’t it strange? The left and right sides of this room are almost perfectly symmetrical. “It’s pathologically perfect.”
In modern terms, it’s called obsessive-compulsive disorder…
Ugh. Anyway, why do I feel like I’ve become so smart…
Jong Ri-hyuk said as he took a step closer to the pottery.
“This jar is the only one that stands out because of its location.”
Han Ibi continued, pointing to the other side with her finger.
“I know why. It’s not symmetrical. “It’s the only incongruity in this auditorium.”
Jong Li-hyuk nodded once and suddenly grabbed the huge pottery with both arms.
Then he lifted it with force and moved it to the side.
“ah!”
“oh!”
So Eun-ri and Yeo Nan-ju made sounds at the same time.
That’s because there was writing written in red on the floor where the huge pottery was placed.
Red liquid splatter was clearly visible around the writing.
Han Ibi put her nose close to the floor and smelled it.
“Ugh. Fishy smell. “This looks like blood…”
So Eun-ri said.
“But what kind of writing is this?”
Jong Li-hyuk looked closely and said.
“It looks like it was written with a finger… It’s not easy to tell if it was due to a lack of energy. But… I think they probably meant to use the character ‘white’.”
Then Han Ibi realized something.
‘Dying message.’
Clues left behind by a dying person.
This is a device that often appears in mystery novels.
Han Ibi thought.
‘Is this… a code left by a dying person? So, does that mean that not all the people in Yeosunpyo’s country have fled?’
Han Ibi felt something in her bones.
It was then.
“evil!”
Yeo Nanju screamed.
At the same time, Jong Ri-hyuk and So Eun-ri took out their military flags.
Jong Lihyuk said.
“What happen?”
Yeo Nanju said with a surprised expression, pointing at the huge beam on the ceiling.
“There are people… there are people.”
Then everyone looked at him in surprise.
It wasn’t that it wasn’t, but I saw something black and human-shaped lying on a huge beam.
Jong Lihyuk shouted loudly.
“Who are you?”
Nothing was said.
Jong Li-hyuk shouted again.
“Who are you?”
Yeo Nanju stammered.
“Could it be… a corpse?”
At that moment, Jong Ri-hyuk looked back at Han Ibi and winked.
Han Ibi, who understood the meaning, made an annoyed expression and grunted.
“Is it me again?”
But who else?
Just as he was about to use the pillars as a stepping stone and climb up to the beam to check.
“Kya! be careful!”
It was Yeonanju’s voice.
Han Ibi was startled and looked up into the air to see that the black object was coming towards Han Ibi with its sword upright.
Han Yi-bi hurriedly took out the Hanzo sword and took up a defensive stance.
He shouted loudly.
“You damn bastards. “What kind of play are you playing here?”
Kakkang.
The sword clashed with the sword, making a loud sound.
At the same time, Han Ibi was unable to withstand the enormous pressure and fell backwards.
Now I see that it was not a corpse, but a living person.
He was a middle-aged man with long bones, and he was wearing a uniform with very wide sleeves.
The middle-aged man cut off Han Ibi’s head without even giving her a chance to breathe.
Kang!
There was a loud noise.
It was a shame that Jong Ri-hyuk defended her instead, and Han Ibi almost suffered a fatal accident.
His eyes were bloodshot, and when he saw Jong Li-hyeok, he went out swinging his sword nervously.
The force was so ferocious and strong that Jong Ri-hyuk was immediately forced into a defensive position after only three or four seconds.
Then So Eun-ri, who was worse off, launched a joint attack.
She attacked the middle-aged man’s lower body with a gentle yet sharp stance.
earth!
However, the middle-aged man’s power was so strong that just from that one match, So Eun-ri received such a shock that it felt like her wrists were going to fall off.
He was truly a stronger person than I had ever experienced before.
It was then.
I felt a ‘hissing’ sound split the space.
Yeo Nanju fired Cheongbongjeong (靑蜂釘), the Qingcheng sect’s memorization of Chinese characters.
However, the middle-aged man only made a ‘hum’ sound once and swung his sword, accurately striking the sword.
But didn’t the Cheongbongjeong fly straight towards the crotch of Han Ibi, who was sitting down?
Han Ibi, who was frightened, ran as hard as she could while breastfeeding and rolled around.
The force was so strong that instead of being bounced off by the bluestone plate, Cheongbongjeong ended up being stuck on the ground.
‘Ahh. ‘Why are there so many people targeting my place these days?’
At that time, an urgent voice was heard.
“Seniors. Seniors. Please wait a moment. “Aren’t you a Taoist?”
It was Jong Ri-hyuk.
He spoke after seeing the man dressed in Taoist attire.
Then the middle-aged man snorted and said.
“joy. “What does it matter to these evil bastards whether I am a Taoist or not?”
Only then did Han Ibi and others realize that they were wearing street clothes they had bought at a cheap store instead of the Cheongseongpa uniform.
Jong Lihyuk said.
“Seniors. Please stop for a moment. We are disciples of the Qingcheng Sect.”
Then the middle-aged man paused and opened his mouth.
“what? “Cheongseong faction?”
“yes. That’s right. “For some reason, we are not equipped with clothes, but we are definitely disciples of Cheongseong.”
However, the middle-aged man, who was still looking at them with suspicious eyes, opened his mouth.
“How can you believe that?”
At that time, Han Ibi said as she pulled out the Cheongbongjeong that almost got stuck in her groin.
“If you have any doubts, check this out. Cheongbongjeong is a memorization unique to Cheongseongpa that is unique in appearance and difficult to make. “If you still don’t believe me, let me unpack the uniform in my luggage and show you.”
Then the middle-aged man snorted, ‘Hmph’, but accepted it and looked at it closely.
At the same time, I saw his expression slowly and subtly change.
The middle-aged man spoke in a softer voice than before.
“How are you, Jangmun Hong?”
Han Ibi answered in a happy voice.
“Aha Hong Gu-geum, you are a long-faced adult and a nine-faced person. “He is in good health.”
At that time, Jong Ri-hyuk spoke.
“You are no longer a scholar. “A new general was appointed not long ago.”
Then the middle-aged man nodded and answered.
“Hmm. Now that I think about it, I think I heard that the Cheongseong faction is electing a new Jang Mun-in. “Then who is Jang Mun-in now?”
Yeo Nan-ju intervened.
“This is Jang Mun-in, Bok Yeon-hwa.”
When the middle-aged man heard that, he tilted his head and said.
“Is there such a person in the Qingcheng faction? Anyway, congratulations on welcoming a new general.”
That’s what he said… but he looked like he wasn’t interested at all.
The following article: Currently, the reputation of the Cheongseong faction has fallen to the ground, so there are no factions that pay much attention to it.
Jong Lihyuk said.
“Senior, may I ask what clan you are from?”
Then the middle-aged man responded by tapping his forehead.
“Achacha. “I haven’t even introduced myself yet.”
He said as he returned the Cheongbongjeong to Yeo Nanju.
“I am Ji Fenglin of the Kunlun Sect.”
Then Yeo Nanju said with a somewhat surprised expression.
“Ah! Are you the leader of the Kunlun Sect’s Jangseongpyo (帳星慓) Ki Bong-rim?”
“That’s right.”
