Heavenly Inquisition Sword

Episode 274. Watch out for the musketeers.

Geomwang Namgung Byeok, who was resting for a while after finishing breakfast, had a calm expression as usual.

Surprisingly, the Namgung family suffered little damage.

Not only did the 12 of them walk around together, but it was also because Namgoong-yeon, who had a good mind and spirit, led them well.

As he was thinking about the schedule to return to Cheonjimaeng, Namgoongyeon approached him.

“father.”

“huh? What’s going on?”

Even though they are father and daughter, Namgung Byeok, who has an extraordinary daughter, had a good posture.

Unlike the son who runs to him for trivial matters, the daughter comes only when there is a serious matter, so he is nervous without knowing it.

“I heard from the enemy this morning. He said he left the Spirit of Heaven.”

At that moment, Namgung Byeok misunderstood that he was trying to say something about his daughter’s passing the castle to Yeonjeokha.

“Ah, that was done to deceive the Spirit of Heaven. I thought if I went to the Twelve Horsemen it would end the fight. He explained it so well to the enemy.”

“no. I didn’t ask for that.”

“Is that so? Then why?”

“I heard that my father threw stones at the Spirit of Heaven. Was the martial arts of the soul-blood demon so great that your father had to use such various means?”

Only then did Namgung Byeok realize that his daughter was curious.

“hmm. I once fought with two Baekduma soldiers in Namgung family. The Spirit of Heaven was a truly outstanding master, completely different from them. Just as the martial arts of the twelve horsemen varied greatly, I realized anew that the Baekdu horse army was also like that. The Honcheon-blood Demon is one of the top 10 masters in the world. It was the first time in my life that I felt intimidated by anyone.”

“I see. Now I think I know why my father acted the way he did.”

“Isn’t that why you used the chemical industry?”

“no. I asked to set fire to the walnut mountain because there was a scar on it. I came to know about the martial arts of the Honcheon-Blood Demon after hearing from my father.”

“her! I see. That must be the heavenly spirit, right?”

“I can only guess the big flow from the sky. You don’t know why, specifically, until you experience it.”

“Didn’t you say that Diocese is in greater danger than Walnut Mountain?”

“yes.”

“How much is it?”

“We suffered great damage, but we survived. Gyogu-hyeon was not an evil, but a murder. It must be because of someone in Gyogu-hyeon that the Honcheon-hyeolgwi, who was called the Celestial Celestial in the past, went down to the chest. Maybe he’s the real Celestial. You will only be able to come back alive if you are at least 10,000.”

“Tsk! If you do, you won’t even be able to challenge the musketeer about this.”

No one could blame him for putting Zhuge Ga in such a great danger.

“So you’d better not join the ranks of criticizing the musketeers later.”

“i get it.”

After thinking about something for a moment, Namgung Byeok asked as if passing by.

“Is it because you didn’t inform the musketeer of the danger in the prefecture because there was no basis?”

“no. The Musketeer has pushed us to the limb with inaccurate information. With the ability of Chumilgak (樞密閣) he manages, he would have known the number of twelve horsemen. But he only said that a few fell out. Now he is the enemy of our Namgung family. You don’t have to be lenient with your enemies.”

“Internal divisions should not occur in the face of a strong enemy. Couldn’t you try to solve it by talking to him?”

“He went too far for that. He’s on his way to a love affair right now.”

“Have an affair?”

“Chilpaimun and the five generations are killing the madou by going to Gangho. Being praised as a knight even after killing people is because of a certain cause. But if someone kills a wicked person for their own gain, it is just murder.”

“You mean the musketeer is doing that behind his back?”

“You’ll find out when you go back to Heaven and Earth.”

“What will you find out?”

“If he was a knight, two people would be alive, and if he was a villain, two people would be dead.”

“…”

Namgung Byeok did not ask who the two were.

If I drag on a conversation with my daughter for a long time, my head gets confused and I get dazed.

Even now, he blamed himself for bringing up the story of the musketeers.

Namgung Byeok, who was thinking about something else for a moment, heard Namgung Yeon’s voice in his ears.

“I don’t think my father has yet to accept the enemy’s inaction. So, you must have thrown stones or tricked the celestial spirits, right?”

Namgung-yeon swallowed the word ‘simple’.

If it hadn’t been for my father, I wouldn’t have omitted that word.

“Do you think that the enemy can defeat the celestial demon?”

Namgung Byeok couldn’t believe that his daughter rated Yeonjeokha so highly.

This is because the Honcheon Blood Ghost is a difficult opponent even for oneself to guarantee victory or defeat.

“well. However, it would not have been an easy opponent for the Spirit of Heaven. Father, do you think that the Heavenly Blood Demon has withdrawn for the sake of the Twelve Horsemen?”

“Then you didn’t withdraw in a hurry to avoid losing any more of the twelve horsemen?”

“If he had the certainty of victory, he would have fought the enemy without caring about what happened to the Twelve Horsemen. But he left without regret.”

“…”

Only then did Namgung Byeok realize that he did not acknowledge Yeonjeokha’s inaction.

It seems that he still only thought of him as the youngest member of Waryongjang.

“The magic dragon was floating in the smoky sky. Can you defeat the invisible demon dragon and catch it with your sword?”

“Will it be difficult?”

“You said that the dragon had a sword stuck in its head, right? Did the enemy come down after you?”

“It was.”

“How did the enemy get to the dragon’s head?”

“…”

Namgung Byeok shrugged as if he didn’t understand.

“So, father, don’t try to see him only with memories of the past.”

She put strength into the word ‘father too’.

Maybe he didn’t even know what he was talking about.

Don’t think of Yeon Jeok-ha, who cried while calling herself ‘Mom’.

He is a completely different person from when he was an abused child.

Namgung Byeok nodded his head coolly.

Listening to her daughter’s words, it seemed that she had only seen Yeon Jeok-ha as a child. I don’t know why I keep forgetting that Yeonjeokha is the second person in Green Forest.

“Admit it. I guess I’ll have to change my mind a bit. By the way, how are you? When I look at you and Jeokha these days, they seem to be the same as when we were young.”

“I don’t know what you mean.”

“It means don’t take care of too much and look around you.”

“How can I look around me anymore?”

“I am not asking you to help me with my work. I saw Seonwoo family’s sogaju hovering around you. You didn’t even give me a glance.”

“Emotions between a man and a woman do not arise through artificial efforts.”

“Well, yes, but you can’t even come next to me, so how can there be a change in your feelings?”

“I didn’t know my father had a good relationship in mind.”

“Rather than that, I wanted someone to keep me by your side.”

“You think I didn’t go alone?”

“Yes, I must say, but I am not your brother. It means to surround yourself with people who will help you in your life.”

“I think that is enough.”

“Of course there is more than enough. But how can a person live with his family for the rest of his life? Well, it’s me, it’s good if you’re by my side.”

“I don’t intend to be with my father for the rest of my life.”

Instantly, a flash of light flashed in Namgung Byeok’s eyes.

It was the first time I had heard such a story from her while raising Namgung-yeon.

But before he could ask further, Namgung-yeon turned around.

“Beware of your father’s musketeers.”

“Don’t worry too much. No matter how much I fly and jump, I can’t even get a handful of them.”

“You have a mind to slash him if you have to. He’s brilliant, and if he hesitates, he might be beaten.”

“Tsk! Still, he is the musketeer of the Heavenly League. The head of the family of Zhuge is openly doing bad things. Will you punish him?”

“You know ten ways under water, but you don’t know one way under people. If it doesn’t feel right, cut first at any time. Leave it to me to prove that he deserves to die.”

“OK. I get it. Since you say that, I will also give up my last expectations for him.”

After hearing Namgung Byeok’s answer, Namgung Yeon moved away from his seat.

Namgung Byeok shook his head excitedly when he saw his daughter go to Yeonjeokha and Simtong.

“No, I’m constantly looking for something over there. It’s not like I entrusted you with a jar of honey. Tsk!”

Ha Nam.

Jeongju.

Chili Hachon.

Jujakdae and Ligament, which had left for Mt. Hodu, returned to Cheonjimaeng after 15 days.

After their return, Cheonjimaeng suffered from internal conflict.

It is because the non-partisan faction and Seonwusega impeached the musketeers in public.

The new investigator, Jegal Seung-woon, was not just beaten.

Based on the report of the Privy Council, he fell assuming that his scapula and ligaments set fire to the walnut mountain.

The fire at Waldu Mountain was extinguished within a day, but the damage to civilians was greater than expected.

Every time the representatives of Chilpaimun and Ohdaesei gathered, they fought a war of words over impeachment and arson.

However, there was no conclusion as both sides gave good reasons for doing so.

Contrary to the expectations of the shamans and the Sunwoo family, which were firmly awaited, public opinion leaned toward the musketeers.

The reason was simple.

People acknowledged the lack of information, but did not think it was a big mistake that two squadrons dealt with one Baekdu Horse Army and seven Twelve Horsemen.

There are seven Baekdu horse troops in Myeonggikyo, and about sixty seventy twelve horse soldiers.

Cheonjimaeng is one of the four best masters in the world and seven.

It was also true that it did not seem wrong when you think about ‘How many of each were mobilized out of the total?’

Regarding the results of Waldusan, some even said that ‘Cheonjimaeng is not an opponent of famous religion’.

Since two generations and one master of the 100,000 were defeated by one hundred-two horse army and seven twelve-horse soldiers, such a word would come out.

Ordinary people tend to side with the strong, apart from sympathizing with the weak.

When it became known that Baekduma Army’s martial arts was approaching the tenth highest level, public sentiment leaned back toward famous religion.

One by one, the merchants who were dealing with Cheonjimaeng moved to Yumyeonggyo.

The breakwaters, who had distanced themselves from the famous bridge, joined again toward the famous bridge.

This is a bad thing for the Cheonjimaeng.

However, it is not that there were only bad things in the Chunjimaeng.

The genius of Namgung-yeon was newly illuminated by the painting of Hodusan.

Her nickname has been solidified from Hwa-yong reading-sim to 10 battles.

If Hwa-Yong-Doksim is a small compliment to one’s appearance and talent, then the 10-year-old lady is recognized by the people of the world.

People praised Empress Dowager Ten for overpowering the enemy’s steamship with fire and putting out the fire using the time of the sky.

For those who were disappointed with the sluggish performance of new investigator Jegal Seung-woon, Empress Dowager Ten was a new hope.

The storytellers openly mocked him, saying, ‘Shin Ki-soo can’t even follow the heels of a 10-year-old warrior’.

Uicheongak.

A man and a woman were sitting with serious faces.

Namgungcheon is in a relationship with Namgungyeon’s brother and sister.

“As I was worried, Namrin and Muyoungshintu Baekkyo died. Now, it is no longer possible to know who bought the Tathagata libation. I should have given you a clearer warning so Baekkyo could understand, but it was my mistake.”

Namgoongchun said as if it didn’t matter.

“Why is that your mistake? They had dug their own graves. In particular, didn’t Baegyo cast you out even after knowing that Namrin was dead? He sleeps like a moth to a fire. It was my fault for jumping into the fire not knowing I was going to die.”
