Chapter 101
Episode 101
“Wow!”
Dansomi was happy looking out the window in the carriage.
I left Honam for the first time since I was born.
How amazing is the joy of riding a carriage that you thought you would never ride in your entire life? The child was smiling brightly and resting his chin on the carriage window, looking out.
The sight of his eyes never leaving the window made me realize how excited this child was.
“Is it that good?”
In response to Dan Woo-hyeon’s question, Dan So-mi nodded willingly.
Now, this place passes the border between Honam and Hubuk to the north along the stem of Dongdong Lake. It would be more accurate to say that we have just arrived in Hubei.
To get to Anhui, there were two ways: one was to cross the Gangseo River in the east of Hunan, and the other was to take the east from North Hunan. Of these, Nangong Chen chose the fastest route.
The surrounding scenery has not changed much.
Crossing a border does not change where a person lives. However, from the perspective of Dan So-mi, who was leaving the Honam region for the first time in her life, she could not help but feel amazed and her eyes sparkled.
“But… why do you two look like that?”
Dan Woo-hyeon glanced at Nam Gung-cheon and Sadohak.
Both people were wearing masks.
As before, Namgungcheon is the mask of the military magistrate. Now that I’ve gotten used to it, I don’t think it would be strange to say that it suits me quite well.
And vice versa.
Sadohak, who never seemed to go to Anhui.
I don’t know what they were thinking when they chose to go to Anhui. He showed up right before departure and got into the carriage on his own. Also, I didn’t really want to ask why.
but.
What Dan Woo-hyeon wants to ask about is his appearance.
He was dressed in black and had a mask on his face.
That mask is quite strange.
What Namgung-cheon is wearing is a regular mask without any special features. And the mask of apostolate is not much different from that.
The appearance is also not different in any way.
However, the color is different.
It’s black.
Does it symbolize pitch blackness?
“This is Macheon-gun.”
Dan Woo-hyeon looked at Sa Do-hak with an incomprehensible expression.
His eyes seemed to hate people.
“Macheon-gun is amazing! “I ’m the only one who fought with Gunjageom and drew
!”
Dansomi raised her voice and was happy.
Although I am no longer attending school, this does not mean I have stopped interacting with my friends. Since we see each other every time we go to Agyang, there are things we enjoy and see together.
That’s why I know it well.
Macheon-gun.
He is an expert comparable to the Gunja Sword and is a notorious enemy.
Dan Woo-hyeon turned his head to see Dan So-mi with shining eyes.
What should I say…
I thought for a while and then let out a small sigh.
“They said they were getting together….”
“What does that mean?!”
Namgung-cheon shouted.
His face was so red that he seemed very embarrassed. He looked at Dan Woo-hyeon for a while, and when there was no answer, he finally turned his gaze and stretched out his hand.
The goal is to remove the mask of apostolate.
However, Apostolic Studies lightly avoided it.
“What are you doing?”
“You want to take it off because you’re embarrassed!”
“What’s embarrassing? You started it first, didn’t you? I’m okay. Hey heaven! “How wonderful!”
He smiled loudly, haha, and showed his posture.
That is the appearance that appears when Macheongun appears.
Dansomi said ‘Wow!’ He let out another sigh, but on the contrary, Namgung-cheon turned his head away, feeling like he wanted to hide in a rat hole.
His face got hot.
At that time, a voice was heard from the carriage seat.
“There are strange people in front of you, lord.”
Jang Sam-tae and Kwon Moo-jin, sitting in the coach seat, frowned. A little while ago, a small sound of a knife was heard, and eventually the scene appeared.
There are several people.
Three carts full of luggage and guards to guard them. Anyone can see that they are at the top, but there are fewer of them than you might think.
The reason is no different.
This is because many people have already become corpses.
The foul smell of blood fills the air.
Most of those who survived appeared to have been scavenger hunts. Although they were holding swords, the way they were held and the way they were pointed at the opponent suggested that they were not unmanned.
The other party….
“Are they bandits?”
“It appears so.”
Dan Woo-hyeon sighed and stroked his chin.
It seemed like Kwon Moo-jin and Jang Sam-tae would run out immediately if an order was given. At best, the group of bandits would be at a somewhat different level to deal with these two people.
The fact that Jang Sam-tae had recently been training under Sadohak and was rolling around like a dog also played a role.
But that doesn’t mean it’s not fun.
Dan Woo-hyeon smiled brightly and looked at the two old men in front of him.
“It’s time for you guys to step up.”
“what!”
“Now… what
are you talking about now?”
“Isn’t that so? Isn’t it the military sword that comes forward in this situation? “If the gentleman’s sword steps forward, then Macheon’s army should also step forward.”
Nangong Cheon broke into a cold sweat.
Of course, there is the fact that he acted like a gentleman in Agyang. I do it half for fun, as a hobby. What’s more, even Dansomi loved it, so I couldn’t stop.
Also, since I was in a position where I couldn’t carelessly show my face, it was more efficient in many ways to wear a mask.
It was nothing other than that, but now it seemed like Dan Woo-hyeon was really trying to create Genius Sword and Macheongun in this central plain.
Sigh.
A cold sweat broke out.
I looked at Sadohak with bewildered eyes.
It’s asking for help.
I judged that if Sadohak had a strong sense of pride, he would not give up on his claims even if Dan Woo-hyeon was scary.
But those expectations were inevitably dashed.
Sadohak, or Macheongun, naturally opened the door of the carriage and got out.
Then he walked forward with great strides.
“Here you go!”
Macheongun moved forward without Namgungcheon having time to stop him, and smiled faintly as he looked at those who were attacking the top.
The corners of the mouth visible through the mask increased.
“boss! Look over there! “A strange man has arrived.”
“Huh?”
The bandit leader looked at Macheongun and frowned.
I already know that a carriage is approaching. This is a single road and the width of the road is quite narrow, so I couldn’t turn the carriage around, so I thought I would force my way through, but a strange guy appeared.
“Just quietly leave your things behind. “Don’t hurt your neck.”
Lord Macheon laughed at that one word.
The laughter was loud enough for everyone to hear. The leader frowned and looked at his subordinate. Isn’t it the nature of this place to kill anyone who wants to die right away?
The subordinate approached without hesitation.
His actions without even saying a word were confident.
Naturally, I lifted my sword and swung it vigorously. ‘kill! I will kill you.’ He didn’t even say things like ‘I’ll die soon!’
Because they are so used to murder, they feel it would be a waste to even say unnecessary things to the person they are about to kill.
Just by looking at this, one could guess that these are people who enjoy killing for a living.
But Macheon’s hand naturally stretched out.
The outstretched hand unfolded the golden crown and easily snatched his sword. It was not a situation he could handle, and the subordinate did not even know that his sword had been taken away.
And soon.
Sigh!
“Kwaaaak!”
Scream!
The screams of the bandit minions spread. I couldn’t even react properly to the unexpected situation. Before the body of the subordinate hit by the sword stumbled and fell to the floor, an intangible sword without even a flash of light or sound was seen flying towards them.
Chop clap clap!
Dozens of bandits suddenly fell down, spewing blood. Even the bandit leader realized that he had a long sword wound on his chest and sat down.
There is no time to make a sound.
By the time they realized it, the knife had already dug into their bodies, and they collapsed without even having a chance to feel any pain.
“Gagging…!”
Macheongun clicked his tongue as he looked at the bandits.
“I don’t have any spirit, I have no spirit. “What should I do if I collapse like this?”
Even as he looked at the figure sprawled on the floor and crawling on the ground, Macheon-gun kicked him, as if he didn’t have the slightest sympathy.
The bandits rolled around on the floor like dolls.
“Go… thank you! thank you
Daehyup!”
The merchant, realizing the situation, lowered his head in tears. It wasn’t just him, but the Jaengjasu also bowed their heads to show respect.
It was a life-threatening situation.
There was nothing they could do in a situation where even the guards hired to protect them were dead.
It appeared then.
A ray of light.
I bowed my head again and again, expressing my gratitude.
I really feel like I came back from death.
But.
Suddenly, something sharp touched his neck.
‘ ok?’
The merchant gently looked away.
Macheongun’s blade was touching his neck.
“Um… Daehyeop… is this…?”
“My life was saved, but I’m not just saying thank you and wiping my mouth…”
“What is this?!”
Namgungcheon came running out of nowhere and lightly struck away the blade.
Macheon looked at the blade rising high with a clang and frowned. There was a truly incomprehensible expression in his eyes.
“why?”
“Oh… why? Why! Is that being said now? “How is your behavior any different from the bandits here!”
The merchant broke into a cold sweat.
Suddenly, the carriage door seemed to open and a person with a different colored mask appeared again. Then,
aren’t they arguing with each other?
‘That’s definitely…’
Okay, when I thought about it, I realized I’ve seen that mask before.
My daughter was definitely watching it with interest on the street. Did you say Gunja Sword and Macheongun? After thinking that far, the merchant stepped back in a cold sweat.
For some reason, I feel like I shouldn’t be involved with these people anymore.
That’s how it feels.
Although I was very thankful that they were saved, these two people seemed to have quite a lot of mental problems.
The merchant glanced at the workers and slowly took a step back.
at that time.
Saaagh!
The sword of Macheon’s army suddenly stretched out and cut right in front of their noses.
Damn it!
The ground split apart.
The entire group that tried to move secretly stopped.
“Hey!”
“Please save me…!”
“Where are you trying to run away? “Leave the benefactor who saved your life alone!”
I was dispirited by Macheongun’s burning gaze.
As if to stop him, Gunjageom’s voice rose.
As the two people raised their voices loudly and started arguing again, this time the bandits began to sneak away.
But it was just a dream.
Pow!
“Oops!”
Jang Sam-tae approached those who were running away and kicked them. He pounded it and threw it to the ground as if he would not let a single one go.
Soon, another man got off the carriage and approached.
As I was looking at it with a blank gaze, the man who approached me searched through the arms of the living enemies and took out their pockets one by one.
“Now… what are you doing again?” When the person who was presumed to be Gunjageom blurted out something incoherent, the man smiled and opened his mouth.
“We are recovering the lost money.”
The merchant stiffened at that one word. This group…
they are absolutely insane.
And I was confident in the words the man said.
“Take care of the bandits. If you take it to the coffin, it’s money.”
“Hehe, you don’t have to worry. I’m doing it gently. Softly. Hehehe.”
