Episode 85 The wind blows (5)Ho Yao-seongâs hardened face.
But there was no sign of fear or worry. It was surprising that even though the blade was placed on his shoulder, he showed no fear at all.
âI did not expect this development.â
âPredictable developments are no fun.â
âI donât know if itâs fun, but itâs amazing.â
âWhat you think is none of my business.â
Ho Yaoseong sighed.
âLetâs hear why. Why are you doing this all of a sudden?â
âIsnât that what I have to say?â
âyes?â
âI donât know how and I donât know why. But you never came to me out of curiosity or favor.â
Xiliangâs eyes sank deeply.
âWhy did you come to see me?â
An ambiguous emergency informed by extra senses.
The super sense that had rang an alarm bell in a corner of my head when I first encountered him now stimulated my head like I was being stabbed by a dagger.
Afterwards, I couldnât even concentrate properly on the conversation. This is because his awareness of the other person grew, and he focused all his attention only on Ho Yao-seongâs eyes and reactions.
No more. I donât know how I felt or why I felt that way, but I couldnât walk with the other person even though I felt there was danger.
âI donât know what it is, but you felt something strange, so youâre going to threaten me to find out?â
âno.â
âsure?â
âBringing out a knife wasnât just a threat.â
ââ¦.â
âIf I have to, I plan to cut off my head.â
The corners of Hu Yao-seongâs mouth rose.
âYouâre going to cut off the head of a general on campus? âNo matter how much you do it, you wonât be safe.â
âare you okay. âI can pretend to be a bandit too.â
âaha? âAre you planning on arresting me just because I didnât know I was a total soldier?â
âIf the moment comes when you have to do that, you have to do it.â
Xu Liangâs face was serious. And Ho Yo-seong also noticed the seriousness right away.
Hu Yaochengâs face, which had been scornful, gradually became expressionless.
âPut your sword in its sheath. âIf we are not careful, this situation could be treated as treason.â
âWhether you die now or later, this way or that way, people die anyway.â
âIâll count to three.â
âI ask for the last time.â
Cheeeeee!
There was a subtle magical energy in the sword.
Although he had little magical energy, he was filled with a lot of firm will. If you donât give a proper answer to this question, Xu Liang will seriously cut off Hu Yao Shengâs head.
Knowing that, cold sweat slowly formed on the back of Hu Yaoshengâs neck.
âWhy did you come to see me?â
ââ¦.â
âIâll tell you in advance, but if you talk about mere curiosity, youâll die.â
Ho Yaoseong was staring at Seoliang with a stern face.
Soon he sighed.
âHow did you know?â
âIf you hear a question, you have to give an answer. The habit of asking questions back is not good. And I said it was definitely the last time.â
âI will tell you, please let me know. How did you know? âI have other intentions.â
Xu Liang frowned.
âI donât know, itâs just a feeling.â
âA feeling? âYou guessed it right?â
âI have a pretty good sixth sense.
And I had already figured out that the world does not operate solely on logic.
So when reason and emotion clash, we usually follow the lead of the latter. âThen at least I donât regret it.â
ââ¦Thatâs right.â
This is why you will inevitably laugh.
Ho Yo-seong, who was laughing, suddenly remembered a conversation he had with someone.
â Youâve never even seen my abilities, right? But youâre going to order a total military operation? why?
-Is reason important?
â Itâs important. At least for me.
â Letâs call it a sixth sense.
â Are you saying youâre ordering a full-scale military operation just because you think itâll be okay? What is that? No matter how much you think about it, it makes no sense, right?
â Just keep one thing in mind when doing work for our school in the future.
â Youâre already thinking about doing it.
â The world doesnât work according to logic. This is a mistake smart people like you usually make.
â â¦.
â To develop intuition.
â Intuitionâ¦.
â Logic derives the answer at the moment, but intuition presents the answer sheet for the future. Thatâs where true wisdom comes from.
After hearing those words, Hu Yaocheng bowed to âhimâ. Even though I did not bow down even when I was face to face with the prince, I had no choice but to bow down to him.
This is because, unlike the prince who only gave orders, he gave himself instructions.
Ho Yaoseong whetted his appetite.
âCuriosity calls to imagination, and imagination brings to mind numerous answer sheets.â
ââ¦.â
âI wanted to know which of those countless answer sheets was the real correct answer.â
âSo you were trying to test me?â
âWhen I want to know the correct answer that I donât know, I have to throw the test paper to someone else. âThe other person might be able to solve it.â
âWhat test were you trying to do?â
âThere is nothing particularly special about it. âI just wanted to take you to the Cheonma Armed Forces.â
âhuh?â
âI have a way to get the Three Dukes to enter the Heavenly Demon Armory.â
âhowever?â
âI was going to bring it in and observe.â
Seo-ryangâs eyes became sharp.
âIt must not have been a simple observation.â
âIf you showed me something interesting, I tried to rip you off by saying there was no way for me to do that.â
In other words, you can let them into the Cheonma Armed Forces with your own hands and later treat them as trespassers.
I donât know how that is possible. However, it was clear that Ho Yo-seong had the brains and strength to do so.
In reality, if such a situation arises, Seo-ryang is bound to face the criminal law.
At that time, even if you are a disciple of the religious leader, you will have to serve your sentence unconditionally. No, if you are not careful, you may end up rotting in prison for the rest of your life.
The crime of trespassing into a secret area without permission is the most serious of serious crimes.
Xi Liang, who was quietly looking at Hu Yao Sheng, drew his sword.
âTo be honest, you really have a bad personality.â
Hu Yaosheng grinned. From the other personâs changed tone, he felt that his wariness toward him had been greatly diluted.
âItâs something I hear often. âSometimes I hear people say Iâm a fool or something.â
âWhat kind of guys with big livers are like that?â
âBecause the students at our school are quite generous. Even if they canât say it openly, they whisper about it behind their backs. âThe Three Dukes even drew their swords.â
âYou kept it all.â
âIf possible, please tell me that you have a good memory. âHow can I not forget it?â
Xiliang snorted.
âAnyway, it was quite an interesting meeting. âThen letâs go on our way.â
âEh? Are you going?â
âsure?â
âArenât you going to Cheonma Byeongchang? âHow about having drinks with me?â
Xiliang was astonished.
âAre you going to have a sweet drink with someone who was so curious that they even planned to send him to prison? âI told you in advance, but I donât have to go to the Cheonma Armory.â
âYou promised.â
âWhat do you promise?â
âYou agreed to have a drink with me in return for allowing me access to the Heavenly Demon Armies.â
âSo even if you donât need it.â
Hu Yaoshengâs expression became noticeably glum.
âNo matter what, I thought you were someone who kept his promises.â
âI didnât know that Commander-in-Chief was such a wicked person.â
âI stayed up all night for today and finished all my work.â
âIs there any reason why I need to know that?â
âyes.â
âWhat is it?â
âDidnât you send a guard to Lord Hwanhee?â
ââ¦.â
âEven though you already guessed my intention, wasnât the reason you sent it to Hwanhee Wonju not to find out something, but to alert her? âBe careful with your mouth from now on.â
Xu Liangâs eyes wavered.
Hu Yaosheng smiled.
âAs a result, former Hwanhee Wonju was branded as an untrustworthy person. How will you take responsibility?â
amazing.
Seo-ryang was purely impressed by the other personâs keen insight. It was surprising that he figured out who Ma Dong-pil had been sent to, but his extraordinary ability to immediately understand the intention was truly remarkable.
âThen you shouldnât have touched me.â
âDid you know it would end up like this?â
Regardless of his extraordinary nature, he is an extremely shameless human being.
Xu Liang sighed.
âgreat. âIf this is the case, letâs have a drink or a binge.â
âYou are an excellent choice.â
âBefore that, I will stop by Cheonma Byeongchang.â
âOh, of course. A half-visit would be enough, right? âTell the kids to set the drinking table in advanceâ¦â
âWhat are you talking about?â
âyes?â
Xi Liang looked at Hu Yao Sheng with eyes wondering if such an innocent person could exist.
Hu Yaoshengâs face suddenly became tinged with discomfort.
âWhy are you looking at me like that? âIs one visit not enough?â
âThey said they would let me into the Cheonma Armory.â
âYou did, right?â
âYou obviously said you would let them in âonceâ, but you didnât say you should only bring âone sackâ, right?â S~eaÊá´h the NovelFire.net* website on Google to access chapters of novels early and in the highest quality.
ââ¦!â
âIt would take half a day, not half an hour, to look around and pick up a few things.â
Ho Yo-seong opened his mouth wide.
Seo-ryang said with a face full of annoyance.
âLetâs go quickly. And if youâre going to ask the kids to watch the drinking table, tell them to bring three or four pieces of boiled duck meat. âIt tastes so good these days.â
âNo, Confuciusâ¦.â
âFor your information, I like plain food. âIf itâs seasoned too hard or has a strong flavor, I wonât eat it.â
After finishing what he had to say, Seoryang walks away.
Ho Yo-seong, who was looking blankly at that carefree back, burst into laughter.
âIs this the first time youâve been hit in the back of the head?â
* * *
He suggested that he drink alcohol or something hard, but Seoryang only emptied a couple of bottles and got up. It was to familiarize oneself with the weapons brought from the military warehouse.
Seoryang returns home carrying various things in a large bag that can fit even one person.
Hu Yaoshengâs face, which was looking at him with drunken eyes, became increasingly serious.
âYou donât know people until you meet them⦠So Wonju was right.â
He is a person who cannot be described in just a few words. As anyone would say, there was something special about Seoryang.
âI just canât figure it out.â
Among the common people, there is talk of marriage even after the age of 15, and by the time they are in their mid-20s, they start a family and establish a foundation for life.
But Moorim is different. Under the premise that talent was outstanding, people in their mid-twenties were just about a rookie who was about to stand out.
It is common sense in martial arts that people reach their peak when they reach their 40s.
Therefore, Seoryang is a novice. It was normal to see it that way.
However, the Seo-ryang I saw today was by no means a novice.
âIt looks light at first glance, but it is definitely not light. âThe words he blurts out once in a while reveal his own way of looking at the world.â
Hu Yaoshengâs eyes sparkled.
âItâs as if Noh Kang-ho, who went through all the hardships before birth, was reborn in the body of a young man.â
Itâs been almost seventy-eight years since the two met in private.
However, Hu Yaocheng knew how Xi Liang had lived all this time. Understanding the personality and martial arts skills of the sect leaderâs disciples was a natural task for a commander-in-chief.
If you lived as cruelly and ambitiously as you knew, you could never show yourself like that. In the first place, Seoryangâs personality wasnât like that.
âThereâs something.â
Ho Yo-seong, who had been thinking deeply, soon sighed.
âWell, since he went in and out of Panmajeong, there is no doubt about it.â
At least he is not a person who will harm Protestantism. So, the religious leader must have left the Three Dukes alone.
âButâ¦â
Hu Yaosheng looked up at the sky.
Countless stars were twinkling all over the dark sky.
âInteresting. What kind of wind is brought by the Three Dukes, who have abandoned the past and transformed themselves?â
Is it a cold wind of winter or a spring breeze with the scent of spring?
Or is it a bloody, terrible wind?
âLook.â
âYes, soldier.â
âLetâs put the message in the demon palace.â
Hu Yao-shengâs eyes lit up.
âTell the leader that I will see you tomorrow morning.â
