The Grand Mudang Saga [Path of the Shaman] - Chapter 272
Episode 272
Buu- Buu- When
darkness falls like pitch black, an owl perched on a high branch of an old pine over the wall searches for a mouse with sharp eyes.
The movement of that bizarrely bent neck was able to monitor all directions…
Pew!
At the sudden sound, the owl quickly turned around and looked around, but couldn’t find anything.
Boo…?
The owl wondered if he had heard the wrong thing and
opened his sharp eyes…!
…?
There was a sound similar to before, but nothing else.
what? Are you a quick rat?
In a situation where he seemed to lose face for some reason, the owl turned his head with sharper eyes and watched the surroundings, but a black shadow landed beside him.
Whoops!
A hand gripping the owl’s neck.
The frightened guy opened his eyes wide and tried to flap his wings.
“Is this crazy new baby feel bad?
Buuuuuuuuuuuuuu…
“boouuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuu
kudeudeuk.
A black shadow twisted the owl’s neck.
“reel? Look at this baby? Why is your hair like this?”
The owl, who ambitiously came out to prepare his daily bread, ended his life with his neck turned until he could no longer return.
The identity of the shadow wearing a mask was a vicious Jinmu, and the identity of the first sound was Hwangsin and Sodongbo.
Jinmu sat on a branch and looked down at the manor.
The place he came to is not the top, but the mark.
If it is an independent corps, it chooses various transfer routes to communicate with the three provinces of Henan, Henan, Henan, and Hebei, Shaanxi, bordering Shanxi.
For short distances, porters will be used, and for long distances, there is no choice but to use flags or sea transport.
However, what Jinmu wants is the movement inside the Shanseo Chamber of Commerce, not the upward flow.
Shanxi Province was topographically large cities were formed vertically long, and the government roads connecting them had no choice but to develop naturally.
It was said that the moving routes for moving goods within the Shanxi Chamber of Commerce were limited.
According to the Hwangsin, the most frequent movement from Sakju to the north and south was Saneum Pyoguk.
A lot of movement means that there are a lot of targets, and this means that most of the moving goods within the Shanxi Chamber of Commerce will pass through this place with a high probability.
Since this is a place that handles a variety of targets, of course there will be records left behind, and there must be something suspicious among the targets.
You just need to find it.
“But why are there so many people watching over the country?”
It’s normal for the lights to stay on where they should be turned off, and the number of guards walking around carrying torches is beyond imagination.
In the meantime, crazy bastards unleash guards on rooftops?
Does a flag country need to do this?
“Kids. The more I look, the more I doubt it. You have a lot to hide, right?”
Jinmu’s eyes that appeared above the mask slightly curved as if he was having fun.
Maybe it’s a palace, if you’re sure it’s a map… the top is money… keuhuh.
While waiting while looking at the flag, the vigilant surveillance team started the second shift.
about an hour.
However, the guy I saw for the first time in the same location appeared again at the time of shift.
Do you do cross-training?
Don’t these crazy people sleep?
Are you on guard all night and sleeping during the day?
It can’t be.
It’s just a mark. There would be a limited number of people, but there was no way to always operate unmanned soldiers on this scale.
“Hey, look at these bastards?”
As Jinmu laughs, as if he is not the same, So Dong-bo and Hwang-sin look at him curiously.
For some reason, it is clear that the boundaries have been strengthened.
“New Dongbo.”
“yes.”
“Go and look around the place connected to the top of the sack pole.”
“…?”
“Just check outside. What is the boundary water level?”
“…All right. What about the Lord?”
“me? have to go in I’m so suspicious, can’t I just wait?”
Jinmu replied in a pleasant tone.
“As soon as the check is over, wait at the inn.”
“…”
After that, Dongbo So sighed as he saw Jinmu leaping up without a second to ask and flying away to the Great Pavilion.
Damn, tell me why and go.
Dig!
“…”
In the midst of this, Hwangshin was already flying out of the target area.
That guy listens well. Are you the one with no doubts?
Seeing the back of the Hwangshin, who had already disappeared, So Dongbo shook his head and flung himself.
Because I don’t know if I’m right again because I didn’t listen.
* * *
The unmanned guards on the roof were excellent for a watchman.
It’s ‘for a watchman’ to the last.
“Nu…”
Whoops! jump!
Two of them were hiding.
As soon as Jinmu arrived on the roof of Daejeon Pavilion, he subdued the hiders and they lost consciousness as they lay face down.
Jinmu, who kindly pointed out blood transfusion and blood transfusion, tore off the tiles on the roof and carefully hid inside.
The shift was just over, so the time allowed was one o’clock. Find the transaction ledger in it.
It was strong enough to just attack and destroy everything, but first of all, Jinmu had to move as stealthily as possible because no traces had to be revealed.
Squeak tock.
The place where Jinmu stepped on the floor with his body as light as possible arrived at a hallway lined with several rooms.
There was a patrol team walking around the inside, but Jinmu, who hid his presence and moved using the shadows in the hallway, could not be found.
Click.
Waiting for the patrol team to disappear, Jinmu opened the first door and looked inside with sharp eyes.
office.
You need to find the room of Pyo Guk-ju or the general manager in charge of housekeeping. Most of the ledger will be there.
I checked several rooms, but couldn’t find the one I was looking for.
Damn guys. Wouldn’t it be nice to put a nameplate in front of the door?
At the very least, it would be nice to have decorations that look a bit expensive.
Jinmoo’s fifth visit…
“…!”
uh? person?
Before I could check it properly, my fist flew instinctively.
Fuck!
“Keuuu…”
The person who was hit in the face stumbles back.
huh? You don’t fall down in one room?
Did you hit me wrong?
Perpuck!
It was only after I got hit by the second fist that I quickly approached and threw it with a little more power that I was blown away like a frog.
But why didn’t you feel it?
Is it because the scope of the feeling is reduced to hide the presence?
“…”
It could be.
But when I looked closely, it was a woman.
He must have been changing, as his clothes were caught in his arms.
She’s a woman… Was her face a bit harsh?
Hell, did you turn on the lights properly? Daejeongak isn’t some kind of courtroom, so why do you have to change your clothes?
yes this is your fault
Jinmu put his hand on the blood transfusion to prevent the woman from waking up.
By the way… Huh?
“….”
She was beaten so easily and collapsed, so I thought she was just a woman, but the anti-elasticity felt in her blood was quite good.
If you look at the original blood flow, the internal power flowing through the opponent’s veins will exert defensive power.
So, unless it was incapacitated, it was very difficult for the sewage to point to the master.
Of course, it wasn’t that difficult for Jinmu, but the history felt in the woman’s body was unusual.
Feeling suspicious, Jinmu grabbed the woman’s wrist and energized her.
“her!”
What a surprise.
The amount of energy filling the dantian with a rough feeling is the same as that of a warrior who has reached the qi. That too is close to the limit.
Isn’t it the inaction of the elders of the great gates or the ranks of the long masters if the spirit is polar?
It seems that he himself was also momentarily damaged and was unable to express his energy.
For some reason, I said that I didn’t fall down in one room. It’s been quite a bit of a year.
I’m glad though It’s a shame because my hands weren’t free from changing clothes, but it almost caused a commotion.
But why is this level of unmanned in the target country?
What is a foodie like?
Jinmu, who was curious about his identity but did not have time to delay, got up to leave the room and fixed his eyes on the table.
A red letter that strangely goes against your nerves and the writing on the cover stimulates your curiosity.
Hoejunim’s personal exhibition.
Hoeju? Chairman of Shanxi Chamber of Commerce?
It’s just great for the subject of the upper class. Doesn’t it mean that you have a high-ranking master as a guest of honor or as a member of the upper ranks?
Chewy. Shuk.
Jinmu opened the letter without hesitation and examined its contents.
now he is a thief
What does it matter if you pry and take a look or if you steal something?
“Woo Ok-hyeon (right) additional chief?”
Other than that, there was nothing else, but the woman’s inaction was too strong to be dismissed as useless, and the addressee was the owner of the Shanxi Chamber of Commerce.
Feeling somewhat uneasy, Jinmu put the letter in his arms and left the room.
What I needed right now was the ledger of the country.
After leaving the room, Jinmu quickly looked around the room inside the hall.
No matter how many rooms there were, I finally found Pyo Guk-ju’s office after passing through eight rooms.
Without thinking, Jinmu took off his coat and swept everything that looked like a ledger.
He didn’t have to look. There are two useful workers, so why bother looking at them?
Grabbing the jacket full of ledgers like a sack, Jinmu quickly left the office.
Quite a bit of time has passed.
When the monitoring unmanned personnel started shifting, they would quickly realize that someone had broken in.
A small voice came from somewhere in Jimmu’s ears as he hurried at the thought that he had to get out before they found out.
It was in the direction of the dimly lit light at the bend in the hallway.
“Oh… really… damn…”
“…?”
It was not accurate because it was too far away, but Jinmu pondered for a while, feeling as if he was filled with resentment, and then approached the light.
“Damn what kind of trouble is this?”
The clearer the voice, the clearer the emotions contained in it.
Seeing that sometimes even profanity was mixed in, it seemed like a lot had accumulated.
“No matter how much Shanseo is called, it’s not too much.”
“Lowing your voice, Lord Guk. If anyone listens…”
There were two people talking.
One expresses his dissatisfaction, the other restrains his words anxiously.
By the way, Shanseo Chamber of Commerce?
Jinmu’s steps became more and more tempting, moving closer and closer towards the light.
“Think about it too. does this make sense? Even if you do, isn’t it too much? No matter how much they claim to dominate Shanxi, they suddenly raised the payout without saying a word.”
“Lord of the country. Have you forgotten that Beomjeong-nim is staying in Pyoguk with the soldiers under his command?”
“….”
Shiiik. widely.
The conversation was interrupted for a moment, and the sound of the door opening and closing was heard.
“….”
Maybe he was conscious of his surroundings, but his voice volume was reduced so it was difficult to hear what they were talking about.
However, already full of curiosity, Jinmu secretly approached the door.
A room lit by a small lantern.
Inside, the shadows of the two swayed.
“Damn, I can’t even speak properly in my own country.”
His voice was low, almost like talking to himself, but Jinmu, who had his hearing enhanced by sticking to the wall next to the door, could hear it clearly.
Judging from what they were saying, it seemed that one of them was the owner of the flag and the other was the commander-in-chief.
“Don’t you know their temper? There are not a few places that went wrong and turned to ashes overnight. There are also people who made fun of their mouths for no reason and were found dead.”
“I wasn’t signing a contract like that at the damn time.”
“Be patient. You have to be patient.”
“You have to be patient. I have to put up with it…”
It was a tone full of deep regret.
also. That’s right. I don’t know what the contract was or what.
Somehow these bastards said that people only praised them, but when they said anything against them, it seemed that they were killing them.
maybe you were afraid
That’s why I couldn’t help but praise excessively to see who would listen.
Damn guys.
No matter how closed-minded Shanxi is, people were oppressed in this way.
If you’re a merchant, you have to sell things properly like a merchant.
Jinmu’s eyes narrow slightly at the sudden feeling of displeasure.
But now I really couldn’t delay any longer.
There has been a change in the movement of the boundary tone.
One hour shift time.
A sharp whistle rang out when Jinmu, who had no time to delay, safely escaped from the target country.
It seemed that the watchman on the roof that Jinmu had subdued or the woman who knocked him out by punching him in the face had been found.
