Return of Mount Hua Sect

Who touched what? (5)

Early morning.

“Turn it off.”

With a large pail, Kwak Hoi stuttered.

“You’re in a situation where you even take dog food at the very least.”

During the opening ceremony of Cheon Woo-meng, the dogs that were brought and left by the beast archers remain in the volcano and occupy their places like the masters.

There were many opinions about sending them down to the bottom of the mountain right away, but Hyeonjong, a long-time writer, expressed his opinion, 'If there is a relationship, how can you drive them out because they are a silent beast?' it became impossible

Thanks to this, one of the main tasks of the celadon ships was to take dog food, so it was added.

“Okay. It's cuter than I thought, so it's okay... … .”

In fact, a volcano is a barren place.

environment? no, man.

It wasn't like this before, but now cute things like evil spirits that can't even be seen after washing their eyes are sharpening their teeth and practicing. So speaking, isn't the hell that descended on this world a volcano?

For those who live in such a volcano, the presence of dogs that start flailing their tails when they get close was a great comfort. Watching them pant and wag their tails, showing their kind belly, made even the devilish executioners forget for a moment.

The problem is that comfort and annoyance are clearly separate issues... … .

what to do If you are sad, the distribution should be higher.

“I think I can get the Myeongja’s ship sooner or later… … . That way you will get out of this mess.”

Kwak Hoe, who took a deep breath while talking to himself, turned around the corner and opened his mouth.

“Guys, let’s eat… … .”

huh?

But at the sight in front of him for a moment, Kwak Hoe forgot what he had said and closed his eyes.

What am I watching now?

The dogs were lined up in a row.

What is it, I can barely understand. Dogs must also follow the rules of the volcano when they climb a volcano. If you act as if you were living on the street, isn't it obvious that a geek who's worse than a dog will bubble up and attack you?

The problem was that the dogs in the row were lying on one another with their paws straight out into the sky.

'Are you dead?'

no no. It doesn't seem like that... … .

Seeing the four outstretched legs trembling, it seems that they are alive. It's probably not that everyone ate something they couldn't eat, but why is everyone in such a bizarre posture... … .

ha ha ha!

Kwak-hoe flinched at the sudden sound and turned his head.

In front of the dogs lying in a row, Baek-ah was lying in a crooked position.

“… … .”

The posture seen from the back is just... … It looks like a volcanic mad dog is holding a bottle of alcohol.

Kwak Hui felt goosebumps all over his body and he trembled.

'No, I'm doing it now... … .'

Doesn't this just look like that damn marten is giving the dogs a treat?

I brought the tribes I saw on the road, so the dogs are of different sizes, but the largest one is almost the size of a human. And yet, I can't help but get hurt by that rat-bell-sized marten... … .

The back of the nose of Kwak Hui became cold.

That's like... … .

ha ha ha!

When Baek-ah made a loud mandible sound once again, the lying dogs turned over like lightning and got up.

And, without a single bit of disorder, they were aligned in a posture that contained a standard atmosphere.

Baek-ah slowly got up from her seat as if it was very annoying. As the white cotton ball opened its black, shiny eyes, the aligned dogs curled their tails and trembled.

man!

After Baek-ah's brief shout, the dogs suddenly began to run at full force toward the prose.

Kik!

Seeing this, Baek-ah snorted and turned her head slightly.

“… … .”

“… … .”

At that moment, the eyes of Kwak-hoe and Baek-ah, who were holding dog food, met. A moment of silence passed.

tilt.

Baek-ah opened her eyes as if she knew nothing and tilted her cute head to the side. Kwak Hoe was at a loss for words.

'Oh, that abomination... … .'

Anyway, I have the same as the owner!

In this volcanic volcano, there is nothing in it, even human and beasts, it's okay!

* * *

“Okay.”

Hyunyoung's face was also distorted when he heard the situation after running late. There was a lot of anger in his voice.

“We’re not a neighborhood drum, we’re bandits, bandits, everyone… … . Doesn't it seem like the local sappers stab them all at once?"

“That is unavoidable.”

Unam shook her head.

Businesses on a scale about the size of a volcano are usually well-known shopping centers in Jungwon or large gate groups of the old file-bang class. These people have been in business for a long time and have established a firm position in many cases.

Hwangjong sighed and said.

“No matter how the volcano became the head of the Cheonwoo Meng, and it is said that he is making a name for himself in the world… … It is still inferior to the famous old file rooms.”

“Ummm.”

“From their point of view, it would be a good place to take a peek.”

“Okay. It's good to stab."

At that moment, a sarcastic voice was heard as if his stomach had been twisted.

“These bastards, are we okay with this?”

“Cheongmyung, be patient!”

“Not good! wow.”

"now! Here is the sugar, the sugar! Whoa, look here.”

Jo-Geol, Yoon-Jong, and Baek-Chun grabbed Qing-Myeong, which had just been convulsing, from all sides, crushed it, and stuffed the sweet fruit into their mouths.

“Ugh, let it go! don't let it go Now I'm doing my best to put the heads on even the brute bastards. oh my god! Don’t be afraid to eat anywhere and play water bowls!”

Chung Myung-ah... … . The bandits are kids who play with water, the bandits are kids who play with the water, and we are mountain climbers.

The volcano has developed in many ways, but the most developed aspect was the unshakable and strong mental power. What you mean is that you can continue the meeting calmly no matter what Chung Myung says next to you.

“What do you think you should do?”

“How about what? Qingming is a hundred times correct!”

Hyunyoung cut it off as if he had nothing to think about.

“If you stay still even after being hit, you become a bale and a hogu. Haven’t you felt that deeply for a long time?”

"Yes."

“Besides, it's not a matter of anywhere else, it's a matter of ghost gates and the top of the galaxy. If we don’t step in at a time like this, who will step forward?”

Hyungwon nodded quietly. It was a gesture as if there was nothing wrong with Hyunyoung's words.

However, the phenomenon did not seem to be so.

“It’s not that easy to think about, Jang Mun-in.”

“Uh?”

Hyeonjong looked at the phenomenon as if to say more at the unexpected words.

“Your opponent is not good.”

"Not good?"

"Yes."

Phenomenon nodded with a heavy face.

“Meeting bandits in the mountains is terrifying, but it is nothing compared to meeting bandits on the water. A mountain, no matter how high and rugged it may be, is where you eventually put your feet on the ground. But in order to face the enemy, we inevitably have to go to the Yangtze by boat.”

“… … Yes."

“Fighting enemies on a ship is many times more difficult than on land. Moreover, our children have very little experience on boats.”

“So is he.”

“There may be some variables. So it is not an easy thing to think about.”

“Ummm.”

There was a worried look on Hyeonjong's face.

“I am of the same opinion, Jang Mun-in.”

Even Unam came to the aid of the phenomenon.

“The opponent is one of the eighteen gangs of Janggangsu, one of the five Shinjus. Of course, Hwasan is different from the past, but turning one of the Shinjuo Pae into the enemy is a decision to be made carefully.”

The name Shinjuopae weighed heavily on Hyeonjong.

Aren't they already having a difficult relationship with the people of all ages, one of the gods? In this situation, it was certainly not an easy decision to add more enemies to Shinjuo Pae.

“Then what do you think we should do?”

“It is not enough to fight with force alone.”

Unam looked around and said.

“The reason why the aqueduct is suddenly aiming for a galactic flight is now clear. It's because I've heard rumors that Eunha Pyo is making a lot of money. You know they're looking for something precious, but it's not going to last. Eventually… … .”

“After all?”

Unam hesitated a bit and said,

“They will have to pay a toll to get to and from the Yangtze River, like other sects do.”

“… … Did you say toll?”

“Yeah, long-timer.”

Hyeonjong's face was subtly contorted.

“Did I even have to pay a toll to the enemies and beg them to cross the Yangtze?”

“Jang Moon-in. Listen. You don't have to think that way. As far as I know, the uppers operated by other sects also pay tolls for the aqueduct when crossing the Yangtze River.”

“… … .”

“It means that it’s cheaper than just raising a job.”

Hyeonjong looked back at Hwangjong as if to confirm the authenticity. Then Hwangjong nodded his head.

“That’s right, Jangmunin.”

“Huh… … .”

Hwangjong glanced at Hyeonjong and added more.

“Actually, whether you meet a bandit or a bandit, it is basic to pay a reasonable toll and avoid strife. However, thanks to the good relationship with the green forest, I have not paid tolls in the mountains.”

“Are you saying that if I do, I have to pay for the water channel?”

“… … Jang Moon-in. I have prepared personal tolls all along.”

Hyungwon's eyebrows twitched.

What else is this?

Hwangjong lowered his gaze slightly as if he was a little remorseful.

"if… … If they are asking for a toll, it is not a personal toll, but rather, they want to always pay a certain amount at the top level.”

“Heh heh heh heh.”

Hyeonjong burst out laughing as if it was absurd.

“Does that make sense?”

“Of course it is not easy, but… … .”

In fact, it was a difficult topic for Hwangjong to answer. He can't dare demand such a thing from Hwasan. So Unam answered instead.

“What money can solve, it is better to do it with money, Moonin Jang. Isn’t that better than openly putting the disciples in danger?”

Unam's voice was firm. Hyeonjong gently pressed his temples as if his head hurts.

“Unam. But so... … .”

“Jang Moon-in. Don't forget. There is nothing more important than the disciples. Even if the object of comparison is the pride of the volcano.”

Hyungwon slowly closed his eyes. But the worries didn't last long. He quickly opened his eyes and nodded his head.

“You are right. If I could avoid the danger, I would.”

“It’s the right decision.”

"if… … .”

“Oh, wait!”

At that moment, Cheongmyeong, who had been caught by Baekcheon and his party, abruptly got up.

"now. Cheongmyung is calm... … .”

“Oh, get out of the way!”

Cheong-myung grabbed and threw Jo-Geul, who was trying to press her back.

thud!

The jogger hung on the wall slowly slid down. Cheongmyung continued talking without even paying attention to him.

“You are also right. If we can solve it without fighting, of course we should.”

"what?"

“Resolve without fighting… … .”

“So, what?”

“… … .”

Qingming quietly shut his mouth and looked around. Everyone was like, 'What did I hear wrong? There's no way words like that can come out of that guy's mouth?'

“No, really, everyone is very nice. Do you see me as some kind of bloodthirsty demon?”

“… … That’s better.”

“A demon can get along well.”

“… … .”

Blue's cheeks trembled.

But are these real?

“So what do you think?”

Just before Cheongmyeong was about to turn over, Hyeonjong cleverly cut off the flow. Cheongmyeong, who had been half-boiled and rolled up, made a sound of pain and opened her mouth.

“But this is not the case. If they really wanted tolls, they wouldn't have attacked and killed them. They would have stolen the goods and held them hostage.”

“… … uhm.”

Everyone nodded as if there was some truth to that statement.

“What is certain is that the situation is a little more complicated than I thought. and… … Now this is going to be common. Whenever that happens, it is unreasonable to judge the situation in advance and draw conclusions from this place, which is two stations away.”

“What do you think should be done?”

“I must go.”

Cheongmyung shrugged.

“Whether it be killed or cooked, we have to go and figure out the situation first. But if it's really a situation that can be resolved with words, that's what I do, otherwise... … .”

"or not?"

“Or what. Hehe."

Qingming smiled brightly and scratched the back of the head.

“Do I have to say it?”

“… … no. no."

Even if you don't hear it, you'll know.

Hyungwon nodded quietly. Both sides of the statement are right. However, what is certain is that it is not easy to make a judgment based on the current information alone. In the end, he had only one decision to make.

“Listen.”

“Yeah, long-timer.”

“The decision is withheld. First of all, we will dispatch an investigation team as soon as possible to find out the truth and find the missing person.”

“Yeah, the long doorman!”

It was a decision that could not be disputed.

"and… … .”

Hyeonjong's eyes were set on Cheongmyeong accurately.

“You are missing from the investigation team that is being dispatched this time. so you know.”

"Yes?"

Cheongmyung's eyes widened to the size of a fist at the unexpected remark.

"Me?"

"okay."

“I am?”

"okay!"

“… … am i missing out? why?"

"why? Why did you ask now?”

Hyeonjong laughed as if he was having fun.

“Did I not tell you, investigation?”

"Yes. By the way?”

“If there is at least one person in the world who does not match the word ‘investigation’ as much as you, look at it. Then let me go!”

“The death penalty.”

Hyeonjong was startled at the words that came out without hesitation. A more plausible answer came out than expected. Everyone's eyes, including Hyeonjong, turned to Jo-Gul.

A sad expression crossed Jo-Gul's face.

"Why me… … .”

really subtle No matter how much I thought about it, it was difficult to say that it was not just cut.

“Mu, of course, the jogger is a bit unreliable, but… … .”

“Come on, long doorman!”

“Okay. Still, the blue is better than you!”

"Oh my gosh… … . How can you say such harsh words... … .”

“What's wrong! You bastard!”

Jo Geul tried to run towards Cheongmyeong, but before she could throw herself, someone grabbed him by the neck and pulled him.

“You are a long-time writer, but this group! This group! Don’t do it, don’t do it, you did it!”

slap! slap! slap!

“Aww! execution! mouth! It hurts, hey!”

“Joe club, just for sure!”

At the speed of light, Yoon-jong, who was trying to subdue it, dragged Jo-geol to the corner. Hyeonjong, who looked blankly at the scene of that moment, shook his head.

"anyway! Absolutely not this time! This is the commander's order!"

"OMG… … .”

Cheongmyung's mouth widened open in shock.
