Episode 246. Birth of Enma (6)
“… … The concubine of the Iron Blooded Lord.”
Madness blazed in Hong Sanja’s eyes.
“I remember. She said that the lust-mad old man had taken her as a concubine three years ago.”
“I heard that you care a lot.”
“It has to be. A young girl only one-third of my age.”
“haha.”
Gwangsanja (廣山子), who burst into a silly laugh, frowned at the sudden thought.
“But is this information reliable?”
“This information is stamped with Hao Mun’s seal. They are stinking scum, but their intelligence is not inferior to openness.”
“It is true after all.”
“yes.”
“What kind of arrogant guy could have summoned a long-time writer to Uichang?”
Until then, Hong Sanja did not know. This is because the identity of the kidnappers was not written in the letter.
“At least it won’t be the Uicheon Meng side.”
A robber knows better than a robber. If he was a member of the Uicheon League, he would have acted only for the rights of Jaffa, so he would not reveal his intention to take over.
“It’s definitely not the Demonic Cult… … Could it be iron-blooded?”
“I cannot rule out that possibility.”
He said so, but Hong Sanja thought that the probability of him being iron-blooded was more than 50%.
Maybe the original wife had someone kidnap her. From the point of view of a wife, the presence of a beautiful concubine would be difficult to describe with words that are eye-catching.
Originally, more than half of the incidents in Gangho were related to infidelity, so it was persuasive enough.
“If you just cross one county, you’re in Hubei. It’s not too far away, and I’ve taken care of things roughly, so it wouldn’t hurt to go there.”
The miner’s eyes narrowed.
“If by any chance this is someone’s trap… … .”
“I don’t think so.”
Hong Sanja put the letter in his bosom.
“The reason why Haomen’s scum has been able to maintain the organization until now is because of trust. It’s the same with nokrimchae and waterlochae. They’re not worth being embarrassed about, let alone talk about, but at least they’re not messing around with things like this.”
In fact, he had done business with Haomen several times. In driving out his master, he could not seek the cooperation of Open, who belonged to the same Uicheon League.
Hong Sanja, who was lost in thought for a moment, rose from his seat.
“Call the pair of plum swordsmen.”
“I will go with you.”
“Wouldn’t you like to see for yourself how things work here?”
“You know? All of the students are smart guys. Besides, there’s a savior, so it won’t be a big deal.”
Hong Sanja nodded.
“Good. You go too.”
It wasn’t because he was a priest, but the mine worker was a rather smart guy. At least he won’t have to go along and avoid it.
Hong Sanja grinned.
“She is the concubine of the Iron Blooded Lord… … It’s heating up again.”
If done well, it could be an opportunity to spread the name of the volcano properly.

“Habaeksoochae?”
“That’s right.”
Moonhwang’s eyes shone.
“Isn’t Habaek-su-chae ranked second among the Thirty-six-chae of the Yangtze River?”
Chaeju Sagok of Yongahchae (龍牙寨) bowed his head.
“It is one rank higher than the main building. It is the head of the Yangtze river that dominates, but in terms of experience, the Habaek-chae is the best. That’s how clear people’s eyes are.”
Emperor Mun also had heard about Yangyu, Chaeju of Habaeksuchae.
‘Did they say Kangryongdogaek?’
I don’t know who he studied with, but I heard that he was a martial artist who could be called a master at his peak. In particular, he was a master of water skills that could fit within three fingers of the water rake, and he was a water demon that could deal with even the best masters on board.
‘A person like that is trustworthy.’
To think that there is no loyalty or even the slightest moral intention just because they are number is to disrespect them excessively.
The men of Yangtze River were all full of bravery and distribution. He longs for freedom more than anyone else, but obeys orders absolutely. The best among them is Yang Yu, so as long as she can, she will be able to detain the kidnappers somehow.
‘Of course it must be difficult.’
Among the kidnappers, there is a master of transcendence. Worst case it could be two.
It can be held back to some extent with the ghostly handiwork, but there will be a limit.
So I had to speed up. You may miss all the fish you caught.
“I will check again. The boat of Chaeju Yang Yu of Habaeksuichae left the day before, and a six-wheeled carriage was loaded onto the boat. And the destination the kidnappers are heading to is Uichang, Hubei. right?”
“Exactly. All transactions of hydrographic bonds are passed on to the general borrowers. He said yes, so he must be right.”
“Good. You have suffered.”
“It was nothing. More than that, are the crew okay?”
The members of the Mukpung crew were all sprawled on the deck. It was only natural that he had run without stopping to this place following Munhwang. Even in the endless run at the risk of death, no one fell behind, so it was a truly toxic unit.
“If you rest for half a day, you will regain your energy.”
“We have plenty of food and water. I will prepare it right away, so you can feed the crew.”
“Thank you for the favor.”
I don’t think he’s being too nice, but this was a direct order from the head of the household. It is only natural that the entire Yangtze River Canal would have ended.
Moonhwang looked around.
Aww. Aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa
To the left and right of Yongahchae’s representative ship, Yongan, were followed by high-speed ships called Yongik and Yongjo. A total of five high-speed boats had hundreds of pirates aboard.

If it was land, it would not be an opponent, but if it was a waterway, it was a military force with higher strategic utilization than Mukpungdae. There are as many as three hundred of them.
I wondered if there were too many of them, but I had to prepare for the unexpected.
‘In my mind, I wish that the entire Yangtze River Canal would come forward.’
Of course, you shouldn’t go that far. They wouldn’t be able to compete against the Iron Blood Castle by force, but if they were to join the Uicheon Meng, it would be a huge headache.
If you don’t intend to get rid of it completely, it’s good to finish with moderate pressure. That was just now.
“Lord.”
“hmm.”
“The Hubei branch sent Jeon Seo-eung. He said he would place iron sword demons (鐵劍鬼) near Uichang.”
Moon Hwang’s eyes flashed.
The Iron Sword Demon was the elite of the Ghost King Gate (鬼王門), the best Sapa in Hubei. Although there were only thirty-three in number, each one was a sword demon mad for slaughter.
“I get it.”
In the vicinity of Uichang, the iron sword demon, and in the Yangtze River, all the strength of the dragon.
Power naturally entered Moonwang’s fist.
‘Catch it unconditionally.’
how much time has passed like that
Shoot Aaaaaaa!
A thick fog rose in the distance.
Moonhwang’s eyes deepened.
“Why is the water fog all of a sudden?”
Sagok tasted his appetite.
“It is a section with severe water fog. In the past, it was also said to be the snort of the dragon king sleeping at the bottom of the Yangtze River. There are dozens of such sections throughout the Yangtze River.”
“Right.”
“Do not worry. It’s not that dark and it almost disappears after a while.”
“I know that water fog is usually caused by temperature differences.”
“you’re right. It’s normal for it to be covered at dawn, but here it repeats that water fog appears and disappears from time to time. Aren’t you curious?”
“Right.”
Wheein.
Sagok playfully trembled.
“It seems that autumn has really come. It is quite cold.”
“You’re losing even if you do it slowly.”
“Even when it gets dark, the speed won’t change much. Do not worry.”
Moonhwang nodded.
Thus, Yongan, Yongik, and Yongjo entered the area full of mist.
saaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa
The thick fog obscures the vision, and at the same time, it seems that a singing voice is heard from somewhere.
‘What is this sound?’
Moonhwang glanced at the four valleys.
Sagok also tilted his head. Even though I had passed by this place many times, it was the first time I heard something like this.
“I don’t think it’s the sound of the wind… … Strange. what?”
It was then.
‘… … ?’
Moonhwang looked down at his forearms.
There were goose bumps. Even if he was trapped in an ice cave, there was no way he would feel the cold with his martial arts.
‘what?’
Aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa
sound coming from far away.
It feels clear now. This wasn’t a song. Rather, it was more like the sound of a boat breaking through the current.
unusual atmosphere.
Sagok looked back and shouted.
“Slow down!”
Curl. Curl.
As if all the ships had been waiting, they slowed down at the same time. It would not be an exaggeration to say that his skill at driving a boat had reached a divine level.
But that’s not enough.
The one approaching here, in the fog-filled Dragon Gorge, was stronger than the empire’s strongest battleship, faster than the best speedboat in the canal, and more terrifying than the shelling of the hull.
Moonhwang’s eyes shook.
A bloody glow repeating flickering beyond the water mist.
“Prepare for battle!!”
Munhwang shouted again and again.
“Everybody in Mukpungdae is ready for battle!”
Chachachang!
All members of the Mukpung Team drew their swords.
Sagok also gave orders to the bandits in Yongahchae as if they had been waiting. It was prepared to attack at any time, at any time.
So, everyone was ready for battle in an instant.
“… … .”
silence for a moment.
wheeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee student
A sudden gust of wind concentrated the mist into a single point.
The appearance of the water mist swirling and forming vortices was spectacular. It is not a river, but forms a vortex in the air.
‘Mist?!’
The area of the water fog was shrinking little by little. The sight of the water fog gradually diminishing over a fairly wide area was also mysterious.
And, the attack began.
Kurrureung! Shoot aaaaa!!!
Could there be a monster hiding in the river?
It was a powerful pottery containing the wind of hell that was shot through the river at terrifying speed.
“Get down!”
“Catch the hull… … !”
Kwaaaaang!!
The huge hull of the Longan shook greatly.
“Aaaagh!”
“catch! catch!”
The clamoring members of the Mukpung Corps, and the bandits.
But the attack did not end there.
Roaring!
Huge pillars of fire shot up from the left and right of Yongsanghyeop and poured down in an arc. Steam rises from the tremendous heat, and the river ripples.
Moonhwang’s eyes shook.
The two gigantic pillars of fire narrowing left and right seemed to see two fire dragons.
‘Doggy?!’
Kwaaang! Wow!
The dragon’s eyes shook like crazy.
Although the best shipbuilding technology was concentrated in the canal, the sudden disaster far exceeded human imagination. It was the power of a natural disaster.
A ruthless blade of wind, and a fantastic pillar of fire.
What next?
so-so-so-so!!
Sagok opened his mouth wide.
“Janggang… … Janggang?!”
The surface of the river began to freeze. The river, which does not easily freeze even in midwinter’s east wind, freezes at a frightening speed.
Are you haunted or are you dreaming?
Bubbly.
Someone walked over the thick frozen river.
He was a tall young man with his hands behind his back. He looked bizarrely harmonious in his handsome appearance, solid physique, and pure white clothes.
He is handsome enough to open his eyes, but rather than admiration, he feels bizarre.
It was because of the terrifying magic that the young man smoked.
“Finally found.”
Munhwang shouted out loud.
“Who are you?!”
The young man, Xu Liang, smiled whitely.
Kwaaang!
Seo Liang, who jumped up breaking the frozen river, jumped toward Longan alone.
