Chapter 656
It was quiet all around.
Warriors recovering the body
The tribal chiefs, who apparently had just arrived.
There was not a single exception. Everyone in West Yaobu (西瑤部) stopped moving and looked at this place.
No, there is only one thing their eyes are looking at. It was me.
and the next moment.
“The sinner walks out on his own feet.”
A cool voice breaks the silence.
The moment I met the eyes of the white statue that was sinking deep, I burst into laughter without even realizing it.
“under.”
A realization came like a flash. I didn’t even have to think about how things were going.
It was because everything was implied in a single word that Baeksang gave instead of a greeting.
‘I’m a sinner.’
I had been forgetting for a while. That I was also a person who met all the conditions for a beastly beast. Instead of lifting a lamp and looking far away, I had to examine it from the bottom of my feet.
“Uncle Baek, what is that??…
Yayulmok, who had been looking at Baeksang with suspicious eyes, realized something and kept his mouth shut, and Namho, who probably grasped the situation faster than I, sighed slightly.
“Huh, I’m old too.
Nam-ho was only half right.
This was obviously a shallow trap, but the pit dug underneath would be deep.
To the point where you can’t easily get out of it once you’ve set foot on it.
‘Damn it.’
It feels like being submerged in a swamp. Her chest was tight and her mouth was gritty as if she had chewed sand.
As I slowly closed my eyes and opened them, I felt at a glance the surroundings where I had become a judge.
“The words that Chief Baeksang just said
did you hear?”
“Criminals. Then, that Han Chinese…
Warriors whispering in low voices everywhere. Their position in this position is truly official.
“I knew it would be like this. So, didn’t someone tell me to get rid of the Han people from the beginning!”
“Eh. But it’s still too early to make a hasty decision.”
“How can such words come out in a situation like this? The only felon who dared to do such a thing is the author of Jin Tae-gyeong!”
Unlike the whispering warriors, the tribal chiefs who raise their voices to confess my sins are members of the jury. and???… .
“You are proud. As if nothing was wrong.”
Baeksang. He who opened his mouth in front of everyone is the judge of this damn trial.
I licked my lips as I looked at the expression on the face of the white statue that was so calm.
“I have no choice but to be proud. Because I am not doing anything wrong.”
It is no longer worth discussing manners.
At my short answer, one of the tribal chiefs shouted with a furious face.
“You dare… … !”
“dare. what?”
Suaaa!
At the same time as he spoke, Qi 4, which was sent down, was fired at the tribal chief, and the tribal chief’s face turned white as white as a sheet of paper.
“hop.”
It is already 100 feet long.
If you take just one wrong step, you will fall.
If you give the initiative according to the flow, that’s it.
I opened my mouth quietly but with a powerful air wave.
It’s not a place for dogs or cows to fit in, they’re all dented.”
U
gulp.
And it was that moment when someone’s throat was greatly shaken.
11 It’s noisy.”
A heavy voice echoes through the wind.
At the end of the eyes of the people who reflexively turned their heads, a person everyone knew was walking through the gates of the western part of Liao.
A magnificent body like a bulging tiger tree and a ridge.
The people in the audience hurriedly knelt down at the appearance of the Beast Tomb King, who exuded a sense of pressure similar to that of a large mountain.
“Meet the Princess!”
A cry that resounds as one voice.
In the awe of everyone, Beast Myowang, who was walking slowly with other tribal chiefs, suddenly opened his mouth.
“Am I included in the dog or cow mentioned earlier?”
It is clear to whom the question is being asked. I shook my head.
“no.”
“Then let me ask you something.”
The deep voice of the Beast Cat King pierced my ears.
“Jin Tae-gyeong of Taewonjinga. here today
What is your connection to this catastrophe? ,
The reason the Beast King asks these questions is not because of accusations or doubts, but rather to help.
Knowing that fact better than anyone else, I answered without hesitation.

“There is no connection whatsoever.”
Gossip flowed from everywhere in response to my prompt reply.
And the next moment, a person who had been silently bowing to the Beast Tomb King stood up.
“Last year, a fire broke out in the West Woods.
all. It was a problem caused by the negligence of drunken Baek tribe warriors, and as a result, 200 livestock and 30 houses were burned.”
Baeksang spoke in a dry voice.
“If you commit a crime, you deserve the penalty. Therefore, he had to cut down all seven of his own people with his own hands. But when I told them to leave a will before the execution, they all said this.”
The emotionless eyes were looking at me, but the voice of the white statue that followed was directed at the Beast Cat King.
“I’m innocent. I didn’t drink and I didn’t start a fire.”
M H
“In none other than the inner palace, two warchiefs disappeared and about a hundred warriors were annihilated. This is not a situation that can be avoided with shallow words.”
Asumyowang gently closed his eyes, and I opened my mouth while staring at the white statue.
“I feel strange listening to it. Do you think I’ve already become a beast without even knowing?”
“If you are really innocent, prove it.”
“proof?”
“okay. This is the simplest and easiest way. If you prove that you are not a beast, it will be a problem.”
I didn’t even have time to answer.
It was because Baek Sang, who had just finished speaking, turned around and shouted at the crowd who were buzzing with conversation.
“I, Baeksang, the great chieftain of the Baek tribe, want to prove my innocence before interrogating the guilty. This will be demonstrated by heaven and earth and a hundred warriors, including the fifteen tribal chiefs who were with me!”
r
damn it Was this what you were aiming for from the start?
I fully expected that Baeksang would have made up an ample alibi, but the timing and flow of revealing that fact were so exquisite.
And as if they had been waiting for this moment, the tribal chiefs who followed Baeksang took the lead in raising their voices.
“I am sorry to the princess. Chief Baeksang’s words are true without any lies, and he was staying with us in Nambaekbu right after the banquet was over.”
“Chief Gyeongpa is right! rain me
Rohan’s Laphu tribe also swears to heaven!”
“I will vouch for the words of the Chief of the Wa clan, Baeksang! We were having a meeting in preparation for the great meeting tomorrow!”
Nam-ho, standing behind me, was stunned by the response from the tribal chiefs, and Beast Cat King’s expression became heavy. Half of the tribal chiefs were openly revealing that they had joined a certain faction, but at this moment, they were beasts. No one, including Myowang, could point out that fact.
South Bay Palace. It was also because two warchiefs disappeared from the inner palace and nearly a hundred lives were brutally slaughtered.
this is a huge metaphor Factional fights that have become an open secret can be treated as ripples, and… … The moment has finally come.
“Jin Tae-gyeong of Taewonjinga. Now I’m going to ask you, where were you then?)
An unavoidable question. An irresistible answer.
It is felt. Baeksang’s question, people’s
It became a blinding noose that entangled my whole body.
And at the same time, there was someone’s hand touching the waist.
Took
I didn’t do anything stupid to turn my head to check.
I already knew that the owner of this touch was Nam-ho, who had been standing behind my back all along, so I thought ‘But why?’ There must be a clear reason for Nam-ho’s behavior, so I kept feeling the movement of his fingers with my senses on edge.
Although the moment wasn’t very long, and it was a minute movement, like brushing a collar, I was able to understand what he wanted to convey.
‘This… …
it was the writing.
Two letters that are short but have a clear meaning.
‘Speechless.’
Namho was telling me not to say anything.
Or maybe he meant to think again about what he was about to say.
That’s how the situation was going ominously.”M
‘What if I told the truth about my meeting with Heukwoong?’
I wonder if you’ll believe me though.
No, there is a high possibility that he will be counterattacked by Baeksang and the tribal chiefs who follow him.
Heukwoong said that he got out of the house without anyone noticing, and even changed his appearance using a bone ball (縮骨功).
‘In a word, it is impossible to prove
uh.’
At the very least, I wouldn’t know if Heukwoong was here, unless the wrist he left behind testifies, I should say that my alibi has been proven. am.
So in the end, the answer I could give was as if it had been decided from the beginning.
“location”
Numerous thoughts passed through my mind, but the time that passed between them was short.
I answered not too late, taking a deep breath and continuing.
“I was staying at the residence right after the banquet was over. And I was attacked.”
“attack? ,,
There are more people who haven’t heard about it yet than those who have heard about it.
As the audience murmured at the news, the Beast Cat King opened his mouth with a hard face.
“Jin Tae-kyung’s words are definitely true. I too have heard reports of them being targeted by killers who cannot distinguish the tribe.”
Yul-mok, who was agitated by this sudden situation, tried to answer in a calm voice.
“you’re right. Some of the inner palace escorts, including myself, arrived at the scene about an hour ago, and I also confirmed that the warriors patrolling the area were dead.”
As Beast Myowang and Yayulmok step in to help, the buzz around them grows louder.
But as I stared at the white statue from the beginning all the way, I once again realized that things were wrong.
“I have also heard that another cataclysm has occurred in the inner palace.”
cold voice. dull eyes
Baeksang, who was quietly brainwashed, continued to speak to Yayulmok.
“But to break into the inner palace so easily, eliminate the warriors patrolling, and launch an attack. It seems that the unidentified killers were quite strong. Isn’t that so?”
Before he had time to stop, Yayulmok’s lips opened.
“That’s right. There were about 30 killers, but each of them was as good as an elite warrior???… .”
Yayulmok’s words did not carry on to the end. No, he couldn’t lead.
The next moment, it was because of Baeksang’s voice that pierced everyone’s ears.
“Is it enough to kill the super-accomplished master who succeeded the King of Fire?”
U?
U [”
“If this clumsy assassination attempt was to tie up Jin Tae-gyeong, then it is incomprehensible as it is. Even if you leave it alone, it’s like trying to touch the person who would have stayed in the house and drawing attention. Doesn’t it seem strange the more you think about it?”
The air in the room fluctuated, and
My face stings at the sights from dozens of pairs of pupils.
But on the contrary, my heart became calm again.
Do you have the confidence to get out of this crisis?
no. I was already halfway accepting the situation.
This trap was big and deep enough to surpass my thoughts.
‘From when on earth until where was the plan?’
I stared at Baeksang with unresolved questions and suddenly opened my mouth.
“I don’t think this is the end.”
Baeksang, who immediately understood the meaning, nodded.
“It feels good.”
“Is there anything more to say?”
“no. I have something to show you.”
perfect
With a dry answer, Baeksang snapped his fingers, and a faint line of people approached from the half-broken gate of Yoseobu.
that buck that buck
The stride is short, irregular, and the gait is slow.
like a sick person. or??… .
Like an old man.’
Recognizing the owner of the familiar face for some reason, I gently closed my eyes. And when I opened my eyes with someone’s old voice.
“Bae, Uturi of the Baek tribe. I have been called by the Warchief.”
The old owner of a somen shop was standing in front of the gate of Seoyobu.
Low-in sub-team
