The Grand Mudang Saga [Path of the Shaman]
Chapter 168

Episode 168

The war is over.

Cheon Woong-bang, who won the war, returned to the center of Nanju, his original residence, cheering for victory.

But Cheonwoongbang was still filled with burning tension.

It was because a guest had come.

They were the core members of the Iron Swordsman, including Chun Woo-myeong of Iron Blood Bungwon.

Duke Wen summoned only Chun Woo-myeong to his residence, and the two leaders faced each other in front of the residence, glaring at each other.

It was the point where the war had just ended, and each other was still holding their swords, so there was no good way to look at each other.

In the meantime, what everyone was equally puzzled about was the fact that Jinmu attended the event where even Won Won-ho, the fireman, could not attend.

What the hell kind of person is he?

* * *

Inside the Heavenly Ark’s abode.

Jinmu, who was sitting in a chair, glanced outside and frowned.

“What is so noisy?”

“Shall we replace out?”

Won Gonghu of the Ark of Heaven, who was sitting in front of him, asked.

“it’s okay. You’re annoying…”

While Jinmu grumbled, Chun Woo-myeong politely poured tea into the empty teacup.

“What tea do you keep pouring?”

“…yes? I was wondering if it was okay to keep emptying it.”

“It’s not even alcohol, will it fit in your mouth?”

When Jinmu scolded him, Chun Woo-myung’s face quickly turned sullen.

“Anyway, tell me how Sapaecheon is going. Are all the words of the Duke true?”

Chun Woo-myeong glanced at Won-gong-hu at Jinmu’s question. Shouldn’t you be able to answer if you know what you said?

“You said you were touching grasshoppers? I heard that people trafficking and even robbery?”

“ah! Um… yes.”

Realizing what he meant, Chun Woo-myeong’s face hardened calmly.

Jinmu smiled dejectedly.

“I think I told you not to touch it unless you are a Moorim person. What did you do to get to that point?”

“That’s…”

Chun Woo-myeong couldn’t answer and just lowered his head.

A shameless guy anyway. Just saying that it was unavoidable because it was God’s order would be enough.

“By the way, what about the elders being changed?”

“…yes. Heavenly Lord, no, the new Heavenly Lord…”

Chunwoomyeong, unable to organize his titles in front of Jinmu, hesitated several times while changing his words.

“Just call it Yuwolcheong.”

“How dare you be a cow?”

“It sucks. You used to just call me by name.”

“…”

“Tell me. Where did all the elders who were demoted after the water change go?”

“That… everyone went back to their respective clans.”

“You’re back?”

“yes. Some have gone into hiding altogether.”

“Haha, that’s really crazy. How much trouble did I have to collect them. So who are the new elders?”

“These are the ones who have risen rapidly in recent years.”

“Are you on the rise?”

“yes. These are the figures of the Munpa who donated a huge amount of money to the Heavenly Lord. Selected from Green Forest, Black Sabbath, Sink, Metallurgy, etc.”

At Chun Woo-myeong’s words, Jinmu’s face frowned.

“It was true that the green forest brought even the pirates into its nature. Haha, what are you going crazy about? The tail must be a piece of shit. It’s not like they only let the thief sit down.”

Green forest was a mountain thief, Yangtze River sink was a water thief, Heuksabang was a scoundrel, and a metallurgical party was a group of people who committed various crimes.

“The one who kills?”

“I’m almost closing the door and sealing it.”

“why?”

“Cheon no Yuwolcheong ordered the killing at random, asking to earn money.”

Jimin’s face became more and more frowned.

He told the slaughterhouse to make money by killing people.

Wasn’t he the one who claimed to be the enemy of the midfielders?

He is a murderer, but he never kills without justification and never commits meaningless killings.

Did I mention that murderers who commit senseless murders are just demons?

He was a tight-fisted guy who insisted that murder should never be a means to make money.

“I must have been pretty pissed if I had given him such instructions. Tsk tsk. It’s not Hao Munju, what happened to Eunwi Danju Myeong Se-chan?”

“Ever since Heavenly Father passed away, his actions have become obscure. Because Yuecheong Yu extorts too much money.”

A sigh comes out of nowhere.

The Silver Guard is Haomen.

Just as openness does in the political and military alliance, Haomen was a key intelligence organization in Sapaecheon.

In any case, there was no place everywhere that was not covered with their snow, and in some ways even better than the opening.

In the middle plain, where is a giru without a courtesan or entertainer, and where is an inn without a shop?

Handling secret information even to the government and Moorim was a step above their openness.

Dump such a valuable asset?

At this rate, the very foundation of Sapaecheon has collapsed.

It took 40 years of hard work to build it, but in only two years.

On the one hand, I thought it was great.

But it’s all because of money.

“Haha, that’s really crazy. No, why the hell is he crazy about money? What are you going to do with all that money piled up in Vigo?”

“yes? Were there any remarks?”

Gonghu Won asked with a puzzled expression on his face, but Chun Woo-myeong suddenly turned his head away avoiding Jin-mu’s gaze.

What about this child?

“Woomin.”

“…yes?”

“Are you?”

Let Jinmu open his eyes.

“Please kill this fool, Lord.”

Chun Woo-myeong hurriedly fell to the floor and bowed his head.

I seemed to know without looking.

There were only three people in Sapaecheon who knew about the existence of Vigo.

Yu Wol-cheong, a disciple of Hyukryeon Moo-gang, who was the master of Sapae. and Chun Woo-myeong.

And only Jinmu and Chun Woo-myung knew how to open the remarks.

At the time, I had a lot of doubts, so I didn’t tell anyone except Cheon Woo-myeong.

Still, in case he dies due to something unpleasant, he asked his disciples to inform him, but looking at the reaction now…

“You.”

“…”

“Did you forget?”

Chun Woo-myeong smiles shyly and scratches the back of his head.

you forgot

This stupid baby.

You played a very strong role in the downfall of Sapaecheon.

“That’s because he’s so obsessed with replaceing the herb of immortality…”

That’s commendable, but… Wait a minute.

A thought suddenly passed through Jinmu’s mind.

“Hey, do you know a place called Baijiazhuang in Guangxi?”

“yes? well. I’ve been around so much…”

Yes, there’s no way you can remember it with your head. No but a lot?

“Woo Myung-ah, have you ever taught yourself how to draw?”

“If it’s the Chaegi method…”

Chun Woo-myeong frowned and thought hard before slapping his knee.

“ah! That foolish bastard!”

haha i remembered

Do you know how much I suffered because of that?

Fortunately, I was able to replace the bloodless and get the Sheep Heart Gong.

“Woo Myung-ah. I’m asking because you’ve been around a lot, are there any others?”

“No, well. I don’t think there is?”

Chun Woo-myeong scratches his head with a stupid expression.

look at that madman Is that something to scratch your head about?

How long have I been struggling?

Jinmu raised his fist slightly, then lowered it with a sigh.

everything is your fault

It is his fault that he taught the stupid Chun Woo-myeong how to draw, and he did not teach his disciple how to open Sapae-cheon’s remarks.

If he had taught his disciple in advance… maybe…

he was troubled.

What should I do now?

The white mark came to mind. After being rehabilitated by Jinmu, he said he would atone for his past sins with his life, but with the help of Jinmu, he decided to live again.

Maybe his own disciple does too.

If you tell me how to open the remark even now, won’t Yu Yue-cheong, your disciple, restore Sapaecheon to its original form?

Yes, isn’t that something that could happen?

Jinmu, whose mind was very complicated, shook his head after pondering for a long time.

No, if you think about it, is there any reason for that?

Baekpyo and Yuwolcheong are different. Baekgajang and Sapaecheon are also different.

How can you compare the Wen faction belonging to the political faction of Guangxi Province and the Sapaecheon, the three cliques of the Central Plains?

And Sapaecheon originally belonged to Jinmu.

It was completely mine from the time I first built it until I died.

If he hadn’t died at that time, Yu Yue-cheong’s becoming the Lord of Heaven would not have happened.

Why are you trying to coax a guy who is not related by blood and ruined Sapaecheon to such an extent that you leave him in charge again?

I came back anyway

Of course, he had no intention of returning to the throne of Inje and Sapaecheon. His dreams have already become much bigger.

midfield.

A place that no one has ever ruled alone.

What he wants is to become the strongest master among all the masters, and to become the master of the midfield, which has never been in the history of the past and present.

That way, you shouldn’t be stuck in one place.

There must be someone who will rule the four paecheon on his behalf.

But that is not Yuwolcheong.

He is already rotten by my greed.

It takes time to heal all rotten flesh. Also, even during healing, you don’t know where and how much the germ that caused the flesh to rot will spread, so it’s better to cut out all the affected areas from the beginning and let new ones grow.

“Prince Wu Myung.”

“yes. Lord.”

“I need to get Sapaecheon back.”

A word from Jinmu created a rough ripple in the hearts of the two.

“Please order.”

Gonghu Won and Woo-myeong Cheon, who were looking at each other, knelt down on one knee in front of Jinmu and bowed their heads with determined expressions.

With two of the Kings of Sapaeo in front, it’s quite reassuring.

“But it’s something I can’t do now.”

“…”

“I’ll leave it to you two first. Unite your forces with Cheonungbang as your base. Once you have laid the foundation by enlisting the elders who were demoted by Yu Yue-cheong, take the forces under Sapaecheon one by one from the outskirts.”

“All right!”

Their hearts began to beat little by little.

The memory of my youth, when I wanted to make Sapaecheon a long time ago, came to mind, and it felt like my blood, which had faded with age, was boiling again.

“The beginning will be difficult. But remember the time when we first set foot in Mt. Cheonzhong.”

“yes. God!”

“But the elders who are not accepted are true, but the Eunwi Danju Myung Se-chan and Salmakgju must be attracted.”

“All right.”

Chun Woo-myeong and Won Gong-hu answered with lively eyes.

trustworthy guys.

Jinmu smiled happily and looked at the two for a while.

First of all, I had to set up one of the two as a substitute.

Won Gong-hu is loyal but his stubbornness is tougher than an iron tendon.

Cheon Woo-myeong is a foolish fool who is honest but forgets two when he teaches one.

Well, not these guys either. So who should I do it with?

After thinking for a while, Jinmoo smiled.

There was just the right person at the right time.

“Gonghu Woo Myung.”

“yes.”

“There is a guy who will lead the new Sapaecheon from now on instead of me.”

“yes?”

“…?”

After staring at it for a while, Won Gong-hu asked curiously.

“Who are you thinking of?”

“Have you already tried it?”

At the words of Jinmu, what came to Gonghu Won’s eyes was confusion, and what came to Chun Woo-myeong’s eyes was a sense of wonder.

Chun Woo-myeong didn’t know about Jeoksaeng, so it was a natural reaction.

“Are you thinking of him?”

Jinmu nodded his head in response to Won Gonghu’s question.

“Oh, but Lord. Listening to it, it’s not a very long relationship…”

“I know. However, the time has not been met and the opportunity has not been obtained, but it is sufficient timber. With the help of the two of you, I will be able to lead it well.”

“But…”

When Gonghu Won tried to say it again, Chun Woo Myung snorted and got angry.

“What are you talking about so much! If God wants you to do it, you do it!”

“…”

Gonghu Wen stared at Chun Woo-myeong. The guy who ran rampant like an angry cow until yesterday.

However, he sighs and laughs.

unconventional greetings.

The Revolutionary War has always been like that. In the past, if you thought you had the ability, you would be forced to sit down even if everyone objected.

“Okay. I’ll do as you say.”

“good.”

“If so, where are you going now?”

“me?”

“yes.”

Jinmu answered lightly.

“public.”
