Episode 531
Lake Poyang was truly vast.
Not only was it spacious, but the whole area was fertile as all kinds of sediments from the upper reaches of the Yangtze River were piled up. As a result, numerous cities developed along Poyang Lake.
Taochang was one such city.
Dochang, which developed along Lake Poyang, was very beautiful, and peopleâs faces were full of composure. However, after the Great War broke out, the atmosphere on the streets changed completely.
With the influx of unarmed people wearing weapons, the atmosphere on the streets became bloody and the composure disappeared from peopleâs faces.
Dochang was a very large city and had a geographically important location.
The one who occupied this place was able to seize the initiative in Lake Poyang. Because of that, Geumcheonhoe and Eunryeonhoe fought fiercely to occupy the Dochang.
Knife strikes occurred several times a day.
One day, the Geumcheonhoe overpowered, and the other day, the Eunryeonhoe took the initiative, and it was repeated.
Countless people died every day.
Most of them were warriors of the Geumcheonhoe and Eunryeonhoe, but among them there were also civilians who happened to be caught up in the fight.
I was killed in a stupid way, but there was no one to appeal to and no one to listen to.
The powerless had no choice but to refrain from going out and wait for this war to end.
Because of that, peopleâs resentment towards the two powers reached its peak.
There were a man and a woman walking on the deserted streets of Dochang.
It was an ordinary-looking boy and a beautiful girl.
They were walking shoulder to shoulder and seemed to get along quite well.
The girl suddenly stopped and looked around. But her eyes were strange. Itâs that the eyes donât focus.
It was clear that the eyes could not see. Even so, the girl spoke as if she could clearly see the situation around her.
âThere are no people on the street.â
âMostly at home.â
The girl nodded at the boyâs answer.
I opened the window slightly and felt the eyes of people watching them. It is to be wary of strangers seeing for the first time.
Even though she couldnât see, Eunyo was the girl who could understand the flow of air around her and peopleâs eyes. And, as always, Do Yeon-san was with her.
The reason the two came to Dochang was simple.
It was to directly check the situation of Lake Poyang and collect information.
There are ways to get information through sales gates or hao gates, but it was still not as good as checking directly.
In particular, as Eun-yo cannot see, she wanted to feel and grasp the air and atmosphere of the battlefield with her own body.
She and Do Yeon-san could not intervene in Pyo-wolâs work of unifying the proselytization.
Although Eun-yo learned martial arts at So-ro-eum-sa, he did not belong to the Sal-mun.
There were many ways to help, even if it wasnât necessarily a matter of buying and selling.
That was the reason the two came all the way to the Dochang.
Eun-yo and Do Yeon-san disguised themselves as ordinary people. However, it still caught peopleâs attention.
It was because of Eunyoâs mysterious atmosphere and appearance.
Those who watched her through the window could not easily take their eyes off the mysterious atmosphere.
Doyeonsan looked around and said.
âDo you think itâs okay to go to the Haomen branch now?â
I entered the Dochang in the morning and have been wandering around until now.
got everything to get
Going any further than this was just a waste of time.
âhuh!â
Eun-yo did not insist.
Now that I felt the atmosphere of the Dochang area, it was time to meet Hong Yu-shin.
Stop by Hong Yu-shin to hear Hao-munâs information, and return to Solgawon to end todayâs schedule.
The two of them walked shoulder to shoulder.
He already knew the location of the Haomen branch from Pyo-wol.
The two left the Dochang and walked upstream to the river that flows into Lake Poyang.
A soft smile graced Doyeonâs lips.
It was because it was good to walk alone with Eunyo like this.
Do Yeon-san reached out and took Eun-yoâs hand. Eun-yo did not reject his hand, but held it even more tightly.
At some point, I got used to walking like this.
I liked walking together rather than walking alone, and it felt better because Eun-yo was with me, not someone else.
It was the same with silver yo.
No matter how much I try to see the world with my mindâs eye, I canât help but be a little inferior to seeing it with my own eyes.
Do Yeon-san was willing to become an eye for her.
Thanks to this, Eun-yo was able to roam the streets without any discomfort.
âFoot!â
Suddenly, Eunyo burst into laughter.
Doyeonsan looked at her with a puzzled expression.
âwhy?â
âI just like it.â
âItâs blandâ¦â
he said, but a smile similar to Eunyo appeared on Do Yeon-sanâs lips.
It was then.
Suddenly, Do Yeon-san frowned.
It was because I saw a group of people walking from the front.
A beautiful woman and dozens of warriors escorting her.
Even at a glance, the atmosphere felt from them was unusual.
In particular, the woman at the forefront felt a dignity that was difficult to approach.
The woman who reminded me of a flower blooming in the snow was Namgung Seol. She is returning to Lake Poyang after escaping from the Haomun branch with the Sulwha Sword Corps.
Do Yeon-san and Eun-yo stood aside on one side of the road.
Fortunately, Namgungseol and Seolhwa Swordsman passed them by.
It was the moment when the two of them were relieved and were about to move on again.
âWait.â
Suddenly, Namgungseol turned around and called them.
The two of them also stopped walking and looked at her. Then, Namgoong Seol walked over to the two of them.
She took a hug and said hello.
âThe girl says that thousands of times Namgungseol. How are you doing there?â
âWhat do you mean?â
âI mean status.â
âWe are not as famous as Namgung Sojeo, so even if I tell you, you wonât know.â
Namgungseol smiled slightly at Doyeonsanâs pointy reply.
âTo know me means I am unmanned. Which one is Geumcheonhoe or Eunryeonhoe?â
âNeither way.â
âIs that still the case?â
âWell, it still is.â
âokay.â
Namgungseol shook his head.
She had an expression of understanding, but the Sulwha Sword Belt behind her didnât look like that.
Do Yeon-sanâs blunt answer raised their anger. However, Namgungseol did not care and asked Doyeonsan again.
âSo you wonât tell me your name?â
âIt is also called⦠calculation.â
âHow about this saucer?â
âIt is silver.â
âWhat? What a beautiful name. As much as the appearanceâ¦â
âThank you.â
âBut where are you two going? There is nothing to see unless you go upstream.â
Namgungseolâs eyes shone sharply.
Do Yeon-san was a little taken aback by her gaze, which seemed to penetrate his head.
It was because Namgungseol was more persistent than I thought.
At that time, Eun-yo naturally stepped out.
She said as she raised her hands intertwined with Doyeonsan.
âIt doesnât matter if there is nothing to see.â
âhmm!â
âDo you need more explanation?â
Namgungseol couldnât say anything at Eunyoâs cold reply.
Because it was natural for a lover to find a place where there were no people.
Namgungseol apologized.
âsorry. I was rude because I was on the edge of my nerves.â
âare you okay.â
âBye. Silver sozer.â
âThat too.â
Eunyo replied coldly and walked away with Doyeonsan.
Namgungseol stared at the two people walking away from each other.
An Ji-san came to her side.
âAre you okay?â
âIâm fine. Attach a few men to them.â
âyes?â
âAnyway, they are not like ordinary lovers. Itâs like walking in the direction of the Haomen branchâ¦â
âOkay.â
Ahn Ji-san answered without any questions.
he knew
How sensitive is Namgungseolâs touch?
There seemed to be no basis for it, but when she said something was weird, something was always wrong.
If she went this far, they should have sensed something they couldnât feel.
An Ji-san pointed at some of his subordinates with his finger. Then, the subordinates moved in the direction of Doyeonsan and Eunyo.
ï¼ï¼ï¼
âNamgungseol? Isnât that the woman that Seolhwa Sword Corps follows?â
âthatâs right!â
At Do Yeon-sanâs question, Eun-yo nodded and looked back.
After walking for a while, Namgungseol was nowhere to be seen. Even so, she glared for a long time as if she could see Namgungseol.
âSheâs a bad girl.â
âI felt that way too.â
âI have to be careful.â
âhuh!â
Do Yeon-san nodded and agreed with her opinion.
Namgungseol smelled dangerous.
The unpredictable unexpectedness seen by those with great ambitions is also felt in her.
A person like that puts everything around them at risk.
Itâs best not to get attention, but if you get attention, itâs better to keep your distance.
The two soon arrived at an abandoned abandoned warehouse.
Confirming that no one was around, the two entered the basement of the abandoned warehouse in the same way as Namgungseol.
âCome on!â
Hong Yu-shin greeted the two.
The two also greeted Hong Yu-shin and sat face-to-face.
Yushin Hong asked.
âHow did you manage to get here safely? Did everything go well?â
âI met Namgungseol on the way.â
âNamgungseol? hmm!â
Hong Yushin stroked his chin with his hand.
I thought it might be because the timing of the two people came is ambiguous, but when I heard that they actually met, it became complicated in my head.
Hong Yu-shin asked Eun-yo.
âWhat does it look like to you?â
âYou mean Sojeo Namgung?â
âokay!â
âI think it is dangerous. If you give me a chance, I think you will surely get angry.â
âAs expected.â
Hong Yushin shook his head.
Eunyoâs answer made it clear.
âThe branch is moved.â
He would have done it if he had been exposed to others, but the fact that he was exposed to Namgungseol made him feel uncomfortable.
The complex structure, like an anthill, was full of traps and organs, but I was not relieved.
âNamgoongseol is a woman with good touch. If I had run into you guys, I would have definitely attached a tail.â
âI checked and no one was there.â
âIt must have come from afar. In any case, it is correct to assume that you guys have been exposed by coming here. When you go out later, go out through another passage. That will buy you a little time.â
âall right.â
Eunyo answered without hesitation.
Even if that wasnât the case, she couldnât shake the feeling of embarrassment.
Do Yeon-san asked.
âDidnât I say she was a woman with good touch?â
âI felt a change in the world of assassins and came to this place right away. First of all, she didnât accept the request, but she must have a hunch that we are involved in this.â
âYou are a troubled woman. Would you rather remove it?â
âThen Lee Geomhan will move.â
âIs this Gwangmumunâs sword?â
âokay! Along with Zhang Wu-geuk, he is a man worthy of being the strongest in the world. If he intervenes, the order that has been maintained until now will be shaken to the core.â
âhmm! I must be careful.â
âokay! For now, thatâs for the best.â
âWhoa!â
âBy the way, how did the work of buying and selling? It feels like itâs almost over, doesnât it?â
âOnce, all the slaughterhouses that flocked to Poyang Lake were subdued.â
âGood luck!â
Hong Yu-shin let out a sigh of relief.
It was something he had asked Pyowol, but he knew that it would be a really difficult road.
I was grateful to Pyo-wol for accepting such a difficult request.
Hong Yu-shin took out a small booklet from the table and handed it to me.
âIt was created by mobilizing all of Haomenâs intelligence. It contains all the forces and personnel in the Poyang Lake area.â
It was a precious book that could not be bought even with ten thousand gold.
It will be of great help to Pyowolâs move.
