Heavenly Inquisition Sword

Episode 226. I don’t know if I can accept it.

To the question of Geumhwa Seon-in, a judge of life and death, a long-time fortune teller, Jegal Seung-woon, a musketeer, did not immediately answer.

He cautiously opened his mouth only after the attention of the warlords was sufficiently focused.

“If we join forces with Sappa, we can eliminate the famous cult.”

“…”

For a moment, Geumhwa Seonin, as well as the other Yukpaimun and the five heads of households, were silent.

Sapa is an enemy of a political faction older than the famous religion.

The ‘Haeng Kang’, which is performed like a rite of passage in the Chilpaimun and the Five Greats, was also aimed at killing Sapa in the end.

It was astounding to say that you could only get rid of the famed religion by joining hands with an enemy you had to kill.

The Seonin Geumhwa asked as if to confirm.

“You said Sapa, but who are you referring to specifically?”

“I am Nokrim, the head of Sapa. If you join forces with Nokrim, all the Sapas in the world will follow you.”

“her! With greenery…”

The Seonin Geumhwa couldn’t say anything, perhaps because he was stunned.

Who is Green Forest?

They are the public enemy and the number one thief to kill.

It was an insult to join hands with such people in the classical chilpaimun and the five generations.

However, no one took issue with Jegal Seung-un’s remarks.

It is because the new resentment was greater than the old resentment.

Perhaps the fact that greening is easier to deal with than famous bridges may have played a part.

From the Justice League point of view, Green Forest is big, but in reality it is just prey.

If Green Forest is a hungry wolf, Yumyeonggyo is a tiger who has tasted blood.

It wasn’t that difficult to get help from the wolf to catch the tiger.

The chattering Chilpaimun and the five family heads nodded slightly.

Lee Yeon-ik, the governor of Uicheonmunju, said with a frown.

“Musketeer. In life, yesterday’s enemies can become today’s comrades, so let’s say so. But will Green Forest try to join hands with us? What are they missing?”

Tangma Sword Pyeonun, a long writer of the joint wave, also shook his head.

“That’s what I mean. Rather, he would rather try to become a fisherman at this time.”

To the two people’s point, Jegal Seung-woon replied in a calm tone.

“Of course I just wouldn’t try to help. I have to make a proposal that suits the taste of the Pacheon Demon Army. For example, it would be like freeing the madou captured by the Justice League and Chillpa.”

There were a number of Madou captured by the Ganghohaeng in the past in the Justice League and Chilpa.

Of course, they had something to gain, so they were captured.

Those who didn’t deserve it were killed on the spot.

Shaolin Temple’s leader, Master Lawless, frowned.

This is because he has not yet obtained what he wants from the Blood Goddess in the Prison of Shaolin Temple.

Blood God is a great horse that was active in the Gangnam area until 30 years ago. More than a hundred Shaolin Temple masters were put in to catch him.

The reason why Shaolin Temple is so focused on securing the Blood Sea God is to retrieve the ‘New Book of Harm’ from him.

At the end of the former dynasty, the Red Turbans raided and robbed Shaolin Temple. At that time, one of the stolen clothing relics (objects made in a space inside the Buddha statue and put there) is the Book of Harmony.

After bragging that he had learned the New Book of Harm while drunk, the Blood God was chased by Shaolin Temple and eventually captured. That was already thirty years ago.

If it wasn’t for the innocence, he would have been so wicked that he could die.

I pretended not to see the reaction of Master Jegal Seung-un-un.

It is because the Blood Goddess is the agenda of the Pacheon Demon Army, so he cannot be left out.

The expression of the long master of the other six schools was also not good.

It was because there were one or two madou with extraordinary stories in their clan.

Merchant Younggyeol, a long-time non-partisan leader, said with a confused face.

“Let’s think more carefully about releasing the Madou. Isn’t this unprecedented since the Justice League was created?”

Wonyang Jin-in, a leader of the Qingsong faction, also helped.

“You are right. The age of sorcery may come. After getting rid of the famous bridge, Green Forest will be running wild, but if the Madou from the previous generation join in…”

Wonyang Jin-in shook his head excitedly, as if the thought of it was terrifying.

However, Jegal Seung-un was unmoved.

“It would be difficult to move the Demon Army without that kind of price. Pacheonma-kun is a person who lacks nothing. That is the only offer he will tempt.”

The Young Gyeol merchant tilted his head.

What does the Pacheon Demon-kun have to do with releasing the Madou imprisoned by Chilpa?

“Is there any reason why an eccentric person like the Demon King would be attracted to such an offer?”

“It’s your chance to prove yourself as the suzerain of Sapa. If he does what no one else in Sapa has done, he will become a Sapa legend. Would Pacheon Demon-kun want to miss this opportunity?”

“What if you still refuse?”

“This is an offer he cannot refuse. If it became known that he rejected such an unconventional offer, Safa would no longer follow him.”

“ah!”

“indeed!”

Exclamation flowed from the mouths of the heads of the Chilpaimun and the five families.

Is there anyone like Jegal Seung-woon who deserves the moniker Shinkisusa?

Chilpa is a pain that tears your flesh, but even Pacheonma-kun can’t deny it.

A method of literally giving flesh and taking bones.

Of course, bones are the blood that Green Forest will shed.

A meaningful smile appeared on Jegal Seung-woon’s lips.

“We have to bring them into this fight in order to prevent the green forest from taking the fisherman’s position. They will shed as much blood as we have shed.”

Only then did the long masters of Chilpa nod their heads.

There was no other way to move the Pacheon Demon Army, so I had no choice but to follow.

Jeongju.

Seokjang Village.

One day before the wedding, the village chief invited his future in-law, Lee Woo-seok, to the house.

Seok Il-ham’s expression as he sat down with Lee Woo-seok and drank tea was softer than before.

“So, are your preparations going well?”

Lee Woo-seok’s eyes shook in front of endless questions.

“As the chief said, we are still…”

He had firmly refused until 15 days ago, but today his words were muffled.

“I hear you say you’re going to have a rite tomorrow?”

At the word “gye-rye,” Lee Woo-seok looked at the village chief with a cold face.

But unexpectedly, the village chief’s face was full of smiles.

“yes. It happened. My nephew said he would prepare it.”

“Good idea. Even if it’s not, there was a saying, ‘We take in a young bride who hasn’t even given a wedding ceremony’. I’m 16 years old, but I hate that I’m young because I didn’t practice the rites.”

Lee Woo-seok was at a loss for words from the village headman’s praise.

It wasn’t a ceremony for a wedding, but the village chief was talking about the two.

“Your in-laws managed to think of holding a rite before the wedding. I’ll pay for that too, so please don’t be burdened and prepare.”

Seok Il-ham said that Lee Yu-hwa’s rites were for marriage.

If that were the case, forcing a marriage would be nothing, so he might think so.

Wooseok Lee didn’t say anything.

In fact, he is half resigned.

My nephew opposes running away at night and says he doesn’t know about his debt.

The village chief says he will force you to have a wedding.

He couldn’t even take it off and got stuck in the middle, and he had no motivation at all.

Then the door opened and food came in.

Wooseok Lee swallowed his saliva unconsciously at the greasy and savory smell.

Come to think of it, it seems that the entire village chief’s house is filled with the smell of food.

Seok Il-ham smiled benevolently and offered food.

“Eat. I don’t know if it will suit your taste. It’s food for tomorrow’s wedding.”

***

Lee Woo-seok ate at the village chief’s house and returned home late in the afternoon.

Lee Woo-seok, who had just opened the gate and entered, tilted his head.

There was a heap of things on the small floor.

These are large boxes tightly tied with cloth.

Thinking it was a gift from the village chief, I entered the room.

I was curious about the contents, but I was afraid that my nephew and wife would cause an uproar.

In the small room, his wife and two daughters were gathering and flirting.

The day is still bright, but the wife hanging out with her children in the room is somehow unfamiliar.

“Did you not have work today?”

“I go to the chief’s house to work, but I can’t go there.”

“ah. Hungry, I’m on my way from there too, but that’s why it’s noisy.”

“Why did you go to that house?”

“Why would you go? I went to look good. How are you going to live with the village chief?”

“Couldn’t you have changed your mind now?”

“What does this person look at me for? I have kids, so what are you talking about?”

Lee Woo-seok hated his wife for not understanding his feelings.

At times like this, it seems that women are biased towards their emotions and are indifferent to the problems of reality.

“What are the things on the floor?”

Of course, he asked, knowing that it was a gift from the village chief.

However, the youngest daughter, Sihwa Lee, made an unexpected noise.

“taoist? I said something, but he sent it anyway.”

Lee Woo-seok looked at Lee Yoo-hwa at the name he had never heard before.

Then, Lee Yu-hwa, the eldest daughter, shrugged.

“My mother and I have just come home, so we don’t know. Poetry and poetry were received in the morning.”

“hmm! I don’t have a guru I know…”

“That’s right. weft? I said above, but he sent it too.”

“The guru and the guard sent them? Who is that? Was there a conduit around here? Anyway, Chief, your feet are wide. Still, it seems like she took care of us because she was her in-laws.”

“Why are we the in-laws of that house!”

The place beauty screamed loudly.

Even Yoo-hwa and Shi-hwa’s eyes became ferocious, and Lee Woo-seok, stingy, made an excuse.

“Who is the in-law? It means that he sent it assuming that it was his in-laws.”

“Still, it makes me feel bad, so don’t say that you are the in-law!”

It was when Lee Woo-seok was in a panic, not knowing what to do.

A loud voice came from outside.

“Are you there!”

At this point, Lee Woo-seok suddenly stood up.

“Looks like you have a guest. See me out.”

Lee Woo-seok, who ran away and escaped from the room, stood on the floor and looked out.

On the other side of the low fence stood three strong men with their backpacks on their backs.

“Who are you?”

“Is this the house of this great man?”

At the word ‘this great person’, Lee Woo-seok blinked with a dumbfounded face.

Mr. Lee is the only one in Seokjang Village.

However, he is not a person who can be called a great man.

Could it be that the treatment of the village chief’s wife is already so different?

I see!

It seemed that he now knew why his friends were envious.

“I am the only one in Seokjang Village. I’m a bit far from people…”

“Your last name is Wooja Lee, right?”

“It is.”

Many of the village chief’s relatives said there were high-ranking people.

“This is a gift from Seok Gang-wol, the county governor of Hyeongyang-hyeon. May I bring you inside?”

“It’s okay, but I don’t know if I can accept this…”

How dare you accept a gift from the Hyun-ryeong after you said you would break off your engagement?

For some reason, Lee Woo-seok felt that things were getting bigger, and he was even afraid.

Until now, I thought it was a chore for the village chief and myself.

However, looking at the pile of gifts sent by Hyun-ryeong, it doesn’t seem like it will end lightly.

When the men put down their presents, the small floor was full.

But that was just the beginning.

Until the sun went down, presents continued to come from unheard of people.

Not only the Jeongju branch of the Justice Alliance, but also the Sakpunghoe, a Sapa union in Jeongju.

Because there was not enough space on the floor, the room had to be built under the eaves.
