Chapter 66

Episode 66. Those who smelled it (1)Boom!

Wei Hongryeon came in through the wide open door.

“Confucius! I’m here! “Something like alcohol… huh?”

She blinked.

“Oh, were you cleaning?”

“….”

“Why are you so surprised again?”

“Hiccup.”

Aenghwa’s face was pale. Seeing that even the broom in his hand was shaking, it seemed like he wasn’t normally surprised.

Wei Hongryun quenched her appetite.

“Where is Confucius?”

“….”

“Hey maid!”

“Yes, yes!”

“Where are you, Confucius? reel? Why don’t I feel popular? “Aren’t you here now?”

The second thing that surprised me was. Aenghwa didn’t know how to deal with the other person’s rudeness.

How could you so carelessly enter the residence of someone else’s disciple? There was no advance message, much less knocking on the door.

“Confucius… isn’t there right now…?”

“Who doesn’t know that? “You said you didn’t feel popular!”

“…Hiccup.”

“Stop hiccoughing and talk. Where is Confucius?”

“He went to practice water.”

“training? “What kind of training?”

“I’m fine too…”

Wei Hongryeon grumbled.

“There are no such hardships, even when it comes to punishment. You’re already strong, but you lock yourself away and train? what the.”

Cherry blossoms were worried. Should I at least curse him for being rude towards Confucius, or should I at least hit him on the head with this broom?

Uduk.

The hand holding the broom was tense.

At that time, Wei Hongryeon put her face in front of Aenghwa.

“hey.”

“…yes?”

“When Confucius comes, tell him that Lord Gwangma has arrived. Do you understand?”

“….”

“Do you understand? Why is there no answer… huh?”

Slurp.

Cherry blossoms just fainted. I was so surprised that it was only then that it occurred to me that the opponent was Gwangma Daeju.

Wei Hongryun frowned.

“It’s all different. “Even though that gentleman had a maid, he still had such a strange person?”

She grumbled and carried the cherry blossoms into the room. Anyway, I can’t leave him lying on the ground.

Wei Hongryeon, who had roughly thrown the cherry blossoms on Seoliang’s bed, shook off her hands and came out.

Then a knife appeared in her eyes.

‘Eh?’

A four-character-long sword placed at an angle on the wall. It was clearly a sword used by Seoyang.

“Look at this guy? “You said you were training but you left your sword behind?”

Hmm.

She looked at the knife intently and shrugged her shoulders.

“I guess he went to practice his punches. shit! “It’s been a while since I had time to come visit.”

Wei Hongryeon kept grumbling and left the residence. I was planning on having a drink while watching the subordinates train as things turned out like this.

Perhaps, if she had come just a little sooner, Seo-ryang would have been in quite a bit of trouble. It’s clear that he followed along, saying that he wanted to train with him.

At that time, Hwanheewon’s convoy was passing the border between the internal war and the external war.

* * *

Doo doo doo.

The carriage’s moving speed was neither very fast nor too slow. seaʀᴄh thё NôᴠeFire.ηet website on Google to access chapters of novels early and in the highest quality.

Unless it’s something very urgent, I don’t speed around school. In particular, the inner temple is where God’s palace is located. It was necessary to be as quiet as possible.

Thanks to this, it took quite some time to get from Hwanheewon to the border between the inner and outer walls.

‘It’s slow.’

It feels particularly slow, perhaps because I have a strong desire to get out of here as quickly as possible.

Seo-ryang did not notice that his face was flushed. Of course, since half of his face was covered with bamboo rips, no one could see him.

‘Are we finally going?’

The corners of my mouth naturally rise. Before I got into the carriage, I noticed cherry blossoms and Ma Dong-pil, but now I couldn’t remember anything.

I just think that we need to get out of here quickly.

It was when he was calming his pounding heart by looking out the window.

“sorry.”

Seoliang turned his head to Juhwa.

Juhwa was lowering her head. Although it was a sitting position, it was a very polite-looking gesture.

“The girl committed rudeness without knowing it was the Three Dukes.”

“Did you hear from Wonju?”

“That’s right.”

“Anyway, when did you say you were rude?”

“I’m talking about the first day.”

Xu Liang chuckled.

“You guys made a fuss about being rude and apologizing for something that was really trivial.”

“….”

“It’s okay, forget it. I wasn’t even paying attention. “Rather, I should feel sorry for entering the room blindly.”

“These are words that are difficult to bear.”

You can either handle it or not.

Xu Liang didn’t pay any attention to her. I will keep my promise to take care of my body along the way, but right now I am busy taking care of my own mind.

‘How long has it been since this?’

Nearly a year has passed since I woke up in the body of the Three Princes of the Heavenly Demon God Religion.

If it’s short, it’s short. If it’s long, it’s long. For the first time in a year, which seemed like ten years to Seoryang, he was able to breathe the outside air.

It is not just a simple outing; if you do it well, you can even escape forever.

‘I’m sorry to Hwanhee Wonju, but whatever.’

What should I do? In the end, the world is worthless unless a person called ‘I’ exists.

The world exists only if I live. If I feel sorry for everything, I can’t live the life I truly want.

Seoliang rubbed his hands together.

‘You said your destination was near Gangseo, right?’

My nostrils are flaring. The corners of my mouth had been raised for a long time, the back of my neck was sore, and goosebumps appeared all over my body.

For a moment, I almost had to pee.

‘First of all, the destination isn’t bad.’

There are two of his safe houses in Jiangxi Province.

Of course, both were areas quite distant from the neighboring areas of Guangdong Province.

The further south we moved, the closer we got to the territory of the Demonic Demons, so there was no reason to go any further south.

But it wasn’t very far. If you have the skills you have now, you can get there by running non-stop for four days and nights in the adjacent area.

If we just get there…

“Confucius.”

“Eh? “Why are you doing that?”

“I would like to take this opportunity to thank you once again. “If it weren’t for Confucius, I wouldn’t have been able to get out of the swamp of evil spirits for the rest of my life.”

Xiliang snorted.

“You don’t have to thank me. “I just knew a way, and it was So Wonju who saved you with that method.”

“But…”

“That’s enough, stop.”

Juhwa closed her mouth. This was because I could read genuine annoyance in Seo-ryang’s tone of voice.

‘…He’s hard to read.’

I know there’s something hidden. I also realized that the Samgongja is a much scarier person now than in the past.

But it was difficult to figure out more than that. It’s not something you can figure out about a person’s personality after seeing it once or twice, but Samgongja was particularly ambiguous.

Doo doo doo.

“….”

There was complete silence except for the sound of the carriage.

How much time has passed like that?

“Eh?”

Juhwa raised her head at Seoryang’s sudden, dumbfounded voice.

Eyes covered with bamboo ribs. But even at first glance, I could see that he was quite surprised.

“What is it?”

“Confucius? “Why are you doing this?”

Xu Liang didn’t hear her. His entire senses were focused beyond the carriage window.

‘uh? uh?’

What is this familiar prayer? That empty prayer that is heavy without any countermeasures yet reveals the honesty as it is….

‘It can’t be… right?’

After a while.

“My name is Yeon-i (蓮二), and I am the leader of this convoy.”

“I am the leader of three. “Our trio of guards will escort you on your way to your destination and until you return.”

“I received the official letter three days ago. i look forward to.”

“It was nothing. “We will open the road right away.”

Kugugoogung!

There was the sound of something huge opening. The gate leading to the abdomen opens.

At the same time, I heard someone talking. As the castle gate opens, the guards inspect the permit for the final time.

Seoliang opened his mouth like a carp.

‘what? Samjo? Three provisions of protection?’

Was the transport originally meant to be escorted from the defense court? If that’s the case, why do you need a convoy? The transport corps itself is a temporary organization made up of skilled horsemen, right?

No, apart from all that.

“Why Dongpil?!”

“yes?”

Surprised, Seoliang looked at Juhwa. Juhwa was looking at himself with puzzled eyes.

“…no. By the way, how are you feeling, Commander-in-Chief?”

“Oh, it’s okay.”

“Did you get lucky today?”

“I had about an o’clock examination in the morning.”

“Let’s do it one more time, just in case.”

“yes yes?!”

“Eight!”

Xi Liang quickly grabbed Ju Hua’s pulse.

It was natural, but it was so fast that I couldn’t avoid it. Of course, it was impossible to avoid the hand of the Three Dukes.

“They said sleep is the best medicine. Get some sleep. got it?”

“Four Three Gongs….”

Grumpy!

The coin fell down like that. The carriage was so wide that there was plenty of room for one person to lie down.

At the same time, Xiliang secretly raised his spirit with a face full of urgency.

[Hey!]

Ma Dong-pil flinched at the sharp sound that shot like an arrow.

‘hmm?’

What is this familiar voice?

‘…Confucius?’

He looked around and inwardly shook his head.

‘Hmm, maybe I heard an auditory hallucination.’

Actually, I’ve been practicing too often lately. I was so absorbed in the fun of learning martial arts that I swung my sword without even sleeping.

I rested yesterday, but my fatigue may not have gone away.

“A total of 82 people have been confirmed, including 31 members of the Hwanhuewon convoy and 51 guards. Please be careful.”

“Good luck.”

Doo doo doo.

Numerous carriages and horsebacks passed through the outer quarters.

It was at that time that Ma Dong-pil was about to drive his horse past the carriages towards the front line.

[You bastard! Are you chewing on people’s words?]

“Gasp!”

Ma Dong-pil, startled, looked around again.

‘What is it?’

Is this an auditory hallucination again? It’s not? This is definitely the message from the Three Confucius, right?

But I don’t know where on earth you’re making the noise. I could not feel Confucius’ prayer at all.

At that time, the window of the last carriage opened.

[Where is this poor guy looking like that? It’s here!]

[Huh? Confucius?]

[Yes, man!]

[How did Confucius get here…? Are you really participating in this convoy?]

[…I guess so. But what are you? Why is the Protectorate protecting the convoy?]

[That can’t be possible? Surely Confucius’ name was not written on the document? But why…?]

[This bastard is fucking alone when people ask him questions. Hey man! Why is the defense court in charge of escorting the convoy? No, why are you escorting the convoy in the first place?!]

[Yes? Oh, that’s… I heard that the atmosphere nearby is unusual because

the Pasunje is right around the corner…] Seo-ryang chewed his lips.

‘Damn it!’

It bothered me that he came without even saying hello, but when I actually looked at him, my eyes were filled with darkness. As long as there are people who know you, isn’t it an easy escape?

[Confucius.]

[Why!]

[Did you receive a secret mission from the religious leader?]

There is no position, so there is no such thing as a mission. If not the religious leader, who would allow the Three Princes to go out? Ma Dong-pil’s thoughts were natural.

Although I was nervous, I just skipped over Seoryang.

[what… You can think of it as something similar.]

[That’s right.]

[Anyway, you shouldn’t let these people know that I’m here. Do you understand?]

[Yes? Ha, but….]

[Don’t let it be known, you brat!]

Ma Dong-pil answered in a voice without realizing it.

“Ah yep!”

At that moment, everyone’s eyes were focused on Ma Dong-pil. His face instantly turned red.

Seoryang quickly lowered his head under the window and pounded his chest.

‘That idiot!’

I thought it would be better to reveal it first rather than find out later, so I called him, and what was that viciously naive response?

‘I’m crazy, I’m crazy.’

Somehow, things were going smoothly. I had no idea that the relationship I was most deeply entangled with at Shingyo would end up holding me back in the end.

If this happens, even if the opportunity arises, you won’t be able to run away!

“…Shiba’s life is twisted, twisted.”

After Ban Shijin, the transport team and the three groups of guards came out of the outer gate of Oijeon.

It was the moment when Seo-ryang, who had experienced hell for a year in the Church of the Heavenly Demon, was excommunicated for the first time since his reincarnation.
