King Sura (2)
Only after returning to the office did Sima Qian finally reveal his thoughts.
“The person named Baekpyo was exactly what I expected.”
Jo Byeok received those words carefully.
“Are you saying you didn’t receive the sword from Gal Saryang, but saw it?”
“I saw it that way at first. But… … .”
Sima Qian paused for a moment and spoke softly.
“The last time I suddenly asked, he was so calm. Of course, since he has led the Tiger Corps for a long time, he will naturally be calm in everything. But the calmness from before was, shall we say, a little different. It’s like practice in case something like this happens.
“I guess it’s the calmness of something.”
“As expected, you are sharp.”
But Sima Qian quickly tilted his head.
“It’s strange. If you hid such a precious sword, why are you hanging around the Murim Alliance? “Without going anywhere?”
Sima Qian will never know. Because he missed Heavenly Jin so much, he had no choice but to leave the Meng Tiger Group, and because of that, Baekpyo’s heart was unable to leave the Murim Alliance.
“There must be some ulterior motive.”
The person who initially suspected Baekpyo was Jo Byeok. Since he couldn’t find anything even after investigating the sword, he naturally hoped that Baekpyo had the sword. That way, he could prove that he had not investigated incorrectly.
“I think we need to look into it.”
“I will handle it.”
“how?”
Jo Byeok thought he could never find the sword using normal methods. The opponent was the former Fierce Tiger Danlord, and what he needed to find was the Sura Myeongwang Sword.
“It would be better if you didn’t know how.”
He meant to handle it personally. It also meant that if a problem arises, he will take responsibility for it himself.
“You know, right? “That guy was the best bodyguard of the Murim Alliance.”
“of course.”
Only after warning him to be careful did he give me the job.
“Okay, I’ll leave this matter to you.”
After Cao Bi left, Sima Qian walked to the window.
At that moment, in the distance, a galsaryang was walking towards us, carrying a lot of booklets and documents. Even though it was late at night, he was working.
Sima Qian looked at him expressionlessly.
At that time, Gal Sa-ryang looked in this direction and bowed politely.
“Are you asleep yet?”
Sima Qian suddenly had a soft expression, like an actor on stage.
“You’re having a hard time staying up late.”
Sima Qian smiled shamelessly even though he knew that he was going through a lot of trouble because he had given so much work.
“I guess it’s because I’m getting older and I’m losing my ability to do things. Then go to sleep.”
Gal Sa-ryang said hello again and walked on his way.
I felt a cold gaze coming from behind.
Although his back was turned, Galsaryang did not even make a small mockery. He knew he was being watched.
Since it was still time to take care of myself, I was acting like a complete loser. He knows very well that Sima Qian still doesn’t trust him.
But one day you will believe it. At that time, he will think that he has truly surrendered himself.
But from then on, the counterattack will begin.
So, are you just waiting for that day and wasting your time helplessly? That’s not it. He has already activated his rain envy. He served in the Murim Alliance for his entire life, serving as commander-in-chief for a long period of time.
There were many subordinates who sacrificed their lives for their own orders, not for the orders of the Murim Alliance. Most of them were Sejaks. He had infiltrated important positions not only within the Murim Alliance but also in various organizations throughout the central plains. they will help themselves
am.
His goal is not Sima Qian.
The target was Ma Bong-gi, and then someone behind him again.
After Ma Bong-gi took office, he secretly observed and investigated Ma Bong-gi, who had become a leader in his own right. So the conclusion I came to was this. There is someone else behind it. Judging by the actions of Ma Bong-gi, who became the leader, it was definitely not something he led.
‘I don’t know how you killed the leader, but I will definitely find out and take revenge. Whether it takes ten years or twenty years.’
I will do anything for that day.
* * *
I rented a room in a guest house not far from Baekpyo’s tavern.
The first thing to do is find out what Sima Qian is looking for. If Baekpyo has it, he is in a very dangerous situation.
Sima Qian asked earlier. Gal Sa-ryang asked if he had left the goods.
Are you looking for a valuable item? Or is it just looking for my stuff?
Seeing Sima Qian move it himself, I don’t think it’s an ordinary object. What is such an important object? Since I don’t know Galsaryang’s items, I tried to think of my own items first.
Since I didn’t like collecting or decorating things, there wasn’t anything I could say was particularly important. However, there were no jewels like the Night Pearl, nor were there elixirs or treasures.
Haven’t I been a person who has lived my whole life relying on a sword?
The next moment, I was so shocked that my thoughts were lost on one thing.
no way?
I jumped up from my seat without realizing it.
Sura Myeongwang Sword?
Suddenly, an old conversation with Galsaryang came to mind. It was about ten years ago.
“The Lord always uses only the Sura Myeongwang Sword. There are many treasured swords in Maeng’s treasury, but didn’t you send them back after using them for a few months?”
“Did I do that?”
“The fact that you are not even aware of that fact also means that you value the Sura Myeongwanggeom that much.”
“I’ve had it for so long that it now feels like my alter ego. “If I die, take good care of this sword and give it to someone who is worthy of it.”
“Don’t even say things like that. “It was decades later.”
“haha. “Hey man, I’m already over sixty.”

Ah, it occurred to me that maybe the Sura Myeongwang Sword had actually been stolen. If that were the case, Sima Qian would not give up easily.
Another scene that naturally comes to mind the next moment.
Sword and shield decorations hung on the wall of Pungju branch.
oh my god!
When I first saw it, I thought it was just made to decorate a tavern.
But in my previous life, I had never seen Baekpyo carving something. I’ve never heard of him having a hobby for such things.
Could it be that the Suramyeong Sword was hidden in that decoration?
* * *
The next day, after finding 10,000 nyang on the battlefield, I went to see the information merchant.
Since it was where the headquarters of the Murim League was located, there were many intelligence groups in Wuhan.
Because intelligence organizations were competing legally, rather than operating secretly as in the past, information boards could be found all over the streets.
The place I went to was the Wuhan branch of the Heavenly Manghoe.
The day before, I went to Bulu, where I went to look for Galsaryang, and it was run by the owner of Cheonmanghoe.
Of course, that was where Hoeju was located, and the Wuhan branch of the Cheonmanghoe was located somewhere else.
The information I requested there was about the man who followed Sima Qian. From what I saw yesterday, he was not an ordinary escort.
Sima Qian came to Fengju Branch with only one person.
In other words, it means that he is a trustworthy person who takes him on secret journeys. I expected Sima Qian to let him handle this matter.
Even if it isn’t, it’s not a bad investment. It’s okay to at least know what kind of people Sima Qian, the general of the Murim Alliance, is.
Investigating Sima Qian directly would have to be very careful, but investigating his subordinates was not a problem. Because various organizations within the Murim Alliance collected various types of information to keep the opposing organization in check.
The fee for information about the company was 3,000 nyang. It was a considerable amount for an information fee for a single military officer. Perhaps because it is the hands and feet of a military general, the price is several times higher.
After making a request to the information dealer, I headed to the Pungju branch.
When I arrived, Baekpyo was just opening the door.
“You’re really back!”
“Oh my, I’m here too early.”
“no. I was just about to open the door. welcome.”
“Please understand. “I couldn’t sleep because I couldn’t forget the taste of the windy liquor here.”
“haha. “This is the first time I’ve heard the expression that our drink tastes like wind.”
Where can alcohol taste like wind? When you look at the white leopard, you feel like you are standing on a wide plain and feeling the wind.
“Now, please come in.”
At that time, I saw Baekpyo gently removing a small, palm-sized container hanging in front of the door. I pretended not to see it, but I knew what it was.
It is a bug called Yagokchung (夜哭蟲) that was mainly used by the Meng Haodan. It is an insect that is awake only at night, and cries when someone approaches it. Mainly used for night vigilance, it is one of the excellent ways to prevent late-night intrusions.
It was.
I went inside and sat down where I always sat.
“It’s a mess because it just opened.”
“Rather, I am sorry.”
“If only there was someone like Confucius, I would become rich in no time.”
“I should come here every day and make you rich.”
“ha ha ha.”
Baekpyo smiled cheerfully.
“Then please sit down for a moment.”
“Never mind about me. “I’m going to sit here for a while and enjoy the view outside.”
“That’s right.”
The scenery here was really nice.
The river sparkled in the setting sun beyond the reeds that followed the wind.
It’s a place that really makes me want to live in a place like this. It occurred to me that Baekpyo might have been dreaming of one day opening a bar like this in a place like this while carrying out that difficult and difficult escort mission. if
If so, this would be Baekpyo’s ‘someday resting place’.
“Where is your family?”
Baekpyo answered my question.
“There’s a house attached to a tavern right behind me. “Her wife cannot help with the work because the child is still young.”
“Oh, I see.”
Actually, I’m not that worried about white votes.
Because I was almost the only person who knew his true colors. People don’t really know how strong he is.
Among the sayings passed down in Gangho, there is a saying that if you want to live a long time, you should hide your strength rather than reveal it all.
Those who best keep their words would be the bodyguards. By temperament, they have an extreme dislike of standing out. Baekpyo was also one of those people.
He is a talented person who prevented the combined attack of the Seven Demon Lords of Black Heaven Palace in the past. When you say the Seven Witches, the Seven Witches, you might think that they are the seven evil men of the four factions, but that is not the case. The Seven Wizards used all kinds of magic and delusion to show what it means to be magical.
They were the ones who showed it properly. No, they were bitches.
I don’t know how many political faction leaders suffered at their hands. He was the one who prevented such people from joining forces.
Of course, I came forward right after the other fight and eliminated all seven demons, but Baekpyo held out and blocked their joint attack for over seven hundred seconds.
What I care about is his family. The stronger Baekpyo is, the more they will try to exploit its weaknesses.
Because despicable people always do things they shouldn’t do without hesitation. What they do is always similar.
My eyes naturally turned to the decorations hanging on the wall.
In my past life, I communicated with the Sura Myeongwanggeom.
When they have been together for a long time, a famous sword recognizes its owner. Of course, that doesn’t mean the sword has any emotions. It literally means recognizing myself and understanding my emotions. Was I angry, and if so, how angry was I? That’s right
The crab sword is also angry. When the sword and emotions match, the attack is even more powerful.
In the past, when energy was released from the Sura Myeongwang Sword, the sword would respond.
However, I didn’t know if my body would be recognized because my body was changed to Byeokridan. It seemed like I would recognize it since the Cheonmuhosimgyeol was the same, but I couldn’t know if that would be the case unless I tried it.
When Baekpyo went out to the back house to take out the trash, I quickly walked over to the decoration.
He held out his hand and sent energy to the wooden sword. She only sent out very little energy.
Next moment.
The wooden sword responded by vibrating slightly. I could tell.
It really is the Sura Myeongwang Sword!
The Sura Myeongwang Sword was hidden inside the wooden sword.
I couldn’t believe it.
It was so absurd and absurd that I laughed.
How on earth did Baekpyo come up with the idea to hide this sword in such an obvious place?
Well, on the one hand, I understood it.
He must have thought it was more precious than life. Let alone leaving it to someone, you would have been worried about burying it in the ground somewhere. He probably decided to leave it where he could watch it all day.
The enemy is formidable.
Baekpyo will try to protect the sword with his life.
How do I solve this?
