Chapter 78
Episode 78. A wolf that flies over a running fox (1)
Lieutenant Jo kicked the Taepyeongjang gate with a bolt on the inside and kicked it with his feet.
I was already investigating this manor because I was suspicious, but it happened that Gogajang even confirmed that it was the home of the infiltrators.
Quaang.
The bar was broken and the gate opened, and Lieutenant Jo and the soldiers entered the Taipingjang.
“Everyone kneel down right now and receive the order. If you resist, I will kill you.”
Some of the servants fell flat on the ground at Captain Cao’s cry, but some fled in fright.
“Catch it.”
“yes.”
Some ran away, and some people climbed over the fence, but Lieutenant Jo didn’t worry too much.
Outside the fence, the elites of Gogajang, who were much stronger than ordinary soldiers, were already surrounding them.
Lieutenant Cho rushed forward and cut off the arms or legs of those who rebelled.
It wasn’t long before the Taiping field was all sorted out.
* * *
“This kind of bullshit…” Hwadang,
the messenger of Taepyeong, and Okju, the branch manager under the pseudonym Taeho, were frightened when they realized that the Taepyeongjang was besieged by the military officers and the elite of the Gogajang.
Because I realized it too late, I couldn’t afford to make a save move.
Of course, there was a secret exit underground under the naedang in preparation for such a worst-case scenario, but the passage was so narrow that it was difficult for even one person to pass through.
“Get the safe first!”
At the cry of Hwadang, the lion of Taiping, Okju stopped giving orders to her subordinates and ran to the wall, sweeping the safe’s items into a sack.
“The guards…”
“The guards are the problem now. We have to live.”
“That’s right.”
Screams began to be heard outside along with the sound of the gate being smashed. Hwa-dang, the lion of Taiping, jumped into the underground exit first, and Ok-ju fastened her sack and followed.
“Damn it!”
However, after a while, the frustrated voice of Hwadang, who was ahead, was heard, and soon after, the two came out again from the exit.
“you’re stupid? How could I forget the exit key?”
“I definitely had it… How could this happen…”
Ok-joo looked at her arms again with a puzzled look on her face.
“Such an asshole… Ugh!”
Hwadang gritted his teeth and suddenly began tearing his clothes.
“Sa lion. Why are you like this all of a sudden?”
“The exit is blocked, so we have to find another way!”
Hwadang took off the cotton thread covering her face and tore it to shreds, untied her hair, and tied her legs to the pillars of the wall, leaving only her underwear on.
“What are you doing! Come and tie my body and arms!”
Ok-joo finally realized Hwa-dang’s intentions and tied her arms to the protruding part of the corner. In the meantime, I found a small jade bottle that had fallen to the floor.
“I see. But, sir. Isn’t this a cancellation?”
“That’s… you have it first.”
“All right. Lion. But then what do I do now?”
“how? why do you ask me that?”
“yes?”
“You too, run away! Who will find a way for you to live?”
“That’s true, but…”
“Get out of this room!”
“I see.”
Ok-ju hurriedly took her luggage and went outside.
shit.
For some reason, Ok-ju’s expression, which was very urgent, changed to a more relaxed expression the moment she left the room.
‘Since I obtained the cancellation…’
After leaving the room, Ok-ju quietly turned around and went down to the basement and entered the secret passage.
clap.
Then, after opening the locked door and leaving, he locked the door on the other side and quietly disappeared.
Udangtang. Kwak.
After a while, Lieutenant Cho and the soldiers broke down the door and burst in.
stop.
Detective Jo stopped walking when he saw Hwadang tied to the wall almost half naked.
“What are you doing? Come on, search this room.”
“yes.”
The soldiers glanced at the fire hall and began to search the room.
Inspector Jo approached Hwadang and swung his sword to cut off the ropes that bound his hands and feet.
Stumble.
And he embraced her as she collapsed without being able to balance herself.
“So-so-jeo, are you okay?”
“Hehehehehehehe…”
“Be relieved now. By the way, what is your name?”
“Heh heh heh…..”
Hwadang did not answer and only cried sadly.
Lieutenant Jo put on a slightly embarrassed expression, then took off his coat and covered her body, then called a soldier.
“Take this sauce out of the manor.”
“yes.”
When the soldier took Hwadang out, the soldier who was searching the surroundings screamed.
“Professor. come this way There is a secret passage.”
“what!”
Upon discovering a cleverly camouflaged secret passageway, Lieutenant Cho hurriedly gave orders to his soldiers.
“We need to search, so make a torch right now.”
“yes.”
The soldier immediately broke down one of the chairs, wrapped a cloth around the wood, poured oil on it, and set fire to it with a flint.
Lieutenant Jo went into the secret passage with a torch made by a soldier, and after a while found it locked and gnashed his teeth.
Bang bang….
It was a thick iron door, but he didn’t budge even though he searched for it with all his strength.
“The leadership has already fled. shit!”
When the soldier brought them out, the elite members of the family house also let Hwadang through without questioning them.
The soldier knew that Hwadang was almost naked, so he took her to a nearby inn where she could escape the cold wind.
“I’m going to get you some clothes, so stay here for a while. owner.”
“Yes sir.”
“Give me some hot tea, please.”
“All right.”
The soldier glanced at the shivering fire and hurriedly left the inn.
When the soldier disappeared, Hwadang drank the tea the owner had brought and looked at the warriors who surrounded Taepyeongjang.
‘If those elite masters were surrounded, even that idiot Ok-ju wouldn’t have been able to escape.’
I know Ok-ju’s martial arts are excellent, but I don’t have the skills to break through that level. Unless it has wings, it will die or be captured.
After drinking tea, Hwadang looked at the innkeeper who was glancing at her sideways.
“Hehehehe, where is the sidekick over there?”
“Oh sidekick. Go out the back door over there.”
“thank you.”
Hwadang did not return after going to the side, and after a while, the soldier who appeared with her clothes belatedly learned that she had disappeared and searched everywhere, but could not find her whereabouts.

The fireman went home only once every few days, but spent most of his life in the doctor’s room and slept in the doctor’s room. After sparring with Woo-geum, he fell in love with the sword to the point where it was a waste of time to go to and from home.
Heeheeing….
As we went out to practice in the morning, the horse in the stable poked its head out of the fence and looked at its owner.
It was said that the horse was a gift that Gocho Daein received from a horseman who runs a large merchant company, and that it was a famous horse purchased with a large sum of money from the Kazakhs living in the Tianshan Mountains.
“This gale is this guy. You seem to want to run in the morning. Yes, let’s run until the cold wind blows our faces.”
The painter went to Obo’s house and took the horse out of the stable.
The five viscera and the obo were already up and preparing breakfast.
“I’m going to go to practice, Senator.”
“yes. I’ll come back and have breakfast.”
“yes. Come on. Just in time for the gale to boil the tumbler, so by the time it comes, it will cool down to be good to eat.”
“Then I will go.”
The painter led the horse out of Obo’s house and quickly mounted it.
The first day I received a horse as a gift, I was very clumsy riding a horse, but now I’m used to it like someone who has only ridden a horse for a few years.
The painter rode a horse and rode for about 10 minutes to a deserted field outside Sochon.
When I didn’t have a horse, I trained in an empty house, but since I had a horse, I’ve been training here.
“You are playing.”
After the painter got off the horse, he stroked the horse’s mane and gave it freedom.
It’s a famous horse, but it’s quite smart. When the painter blows the whistle three times, it heard it from a distance and came running.
When the fireman gave it freedom, the horse circled around, hurting its own eyes and eating grass.
The painter watched the horse speak for a moment and then pulled out the sword from his waist.
“Certainly it doesn’t compare to what I went to the whetstone for.”
The painter made a satisfied expression as he looked at the sword, which gave off a blue cheer as if it had been scratched.
This sword had been repaired by Pyochung after listening to Woogeum’s advice a few days ago.
Pyochung repaired the sword and, as a bonus, sent Mosquito and Hook Army, which he had previously asked for.
Thanks to that, I now had almost all the tools to perform surgery.
Woo-woo-!
As he exhaled hot breath while holding the sword, white breath stretched out.
“Morning and evening… almost like exercise addiction.”
The painter moved slowly and smiled bitterly.
Exercise addiction is when the heart rate exceeds 120 beats per minute for more than 30 minutes, and endorphins are secreted in the brain to forget the pain.
It seemed that his condition was just like that these days.
“Even though I know it’s an addiction, I can’t quit.”
After training for about an hour, the painter put the sword into the sword case.
After training, when he blew his whistle, a nearby gale came running to him.
The fireman rode the gale back to the village, got off at the entrance, and led the horse.
Unlike when I went out, while I was coming, there were quite a few people wandering around, so it could be dangerous to run on horseback.
“Where are you going, Senator?”
When the villagers saw the fireman, they were so politely ignoring it.
“yes. I went to my morning workout.”
“You came back late last night. You are very diligent.”
“yes. Where are you going?”
“I set a trap in the mountain and I’m going to check if I caught anything.”
“yes. Snow piled up and slippery, so please be careful.”
“yes.”
Even after that, people who saw the fireman were polite enough to be burdensome, but this phenomenon was only after the great man of Gocho distributed relief rice to the village.
The fireman tried to dissuade such villagers the first few times, but now he was being greeted as if he was just going to do that.
“Wonhwa, wonhwa!”
At that time, the second older brother, Flower Pot, came running on horseback from afar.
“uh! What is your brother doing this morning? Maybe…”
Mother! I was suddenly worried.
As expected, the pot brought out the mother’s words as soon as she got off the horse. It was said that he had collapsed a little while ago and was unconscious.
Despite his brother’s anxious expression, the fireman calmly went to the doctor’s office and took the surgical instruments.
In fact, I already knew that this day would come and was preparing for it, and I often simulated my mother’s surgery in my head.
My heart is pounding…..
The fireman packs all the surgical instruments and puts the bag on his back, but he notices that his mind is different from usual.
“Is it because she is a mother after all…”
The painter put his hand on his heart and took a deep breath.
“do not worry. A mother to you, but also a mother to me. Do your best.”
It was then that my heart seemed to calm down.
“Boya ride.”
“Yes, Senator.”
The fireman put Obo behind him and ran after his brother, simulating cholecystectomy once again in his head.
‘The clairvoyance should come back to life…’
The self-indulgent clairvoyance ability, which sometimes works and sometimes doesn’t work, was several times more desperate than usual today.
