Login Murim Chapter 856
Immediately after leaving Sacheondanga, seven days and nights passed by in the blink of an eye. Just like the scenery and people around us change with each step.
But it was too early to be relieved.
Contrary to my boasts that I would try to reduce the remaining time to two days, the reality was cold, and I had no choice but to spend more time as I went deeper into hiding to avoid public attention.
“We need to speed up.”
“More than now?”
“yes. “It’s more than I thought.”
“If we just maintain our current speed, we can reach New Moon Day. “It’s already too much.”
“I know. But is the Gold Medical Committee any different from us?”

“We are not the only ones who are moving. “We have to do everything we can to block their path.”
Jeokcheongang, who already knew that what I said was true, did not say anything.
Information is important. However, there is no perfect information anywhere.
If we have obtained any information, the same applies to the other party.
Even in modern times where information can be delivered in minutes and seconds, it would be great for Moorim.
No matter where you go, it is ultimately the territory of a great country. With eyes and ears everywhere, the variables were endless from the beginning, and there was only one way to minimize them.
Run as fast as you can.
Of course, the process required great hardship and patience.
It was a crazy undertaking, having to cross half of the continent in just over 15 days.
“Captain. “If this continues, I’m really going to die.” “Then you should rest.”
“really?”
“huh. “In Jiangsu Province.”
“No, it’s not a joke. You’re going to die?”
“Mujin. Hyuk Mu-jin.”
“yes?”
“What do you think will happen if we don’t go?”
“If you want to rest, rest. This isn’t sarcasm or retort. “If you don’t think it’s going to work, it’s better for both sides to leave.”
Hyuk Mujin didn’t say anything after that.
No, it was the same for everyone, including him.
Instead of complaining, they kept moving with silence in their mouths.
We crossed rugged mountain ranges and crossed winding rivers.
The vast continent had slightly different climates and topography in each region.
The daytime in Hubei was as hot as a furnace, and the night in Anhui was whipped by a cool wind.
One day, when a storm passed by, some people collapsed from fatigue.
“Jin Sohyeop. I understand the gravity of this matter, but… it’s difficult anymore.”
I gave a short answer to Shin’s words, unable to see the members quickly getting tired.
“After a brief rest, we will depart again.” I carried Hyuk Mu-jin, and Jeok Cheon-gang carried Ju Hwaran on his back.
Both of them refused at first, but this time my will was strong. Even at first glance, their condition was so bad that it couldn’t even be joked about.
‘I moved until I ran out of energy and stamina, so it’s only natural.’
And with the nickname Hwawang (火Jo),
Jeokcheon-gang, who had an otherwise cynical nature, for some reason felt sorry for Joo Hwa-ran, whose whole body was boiling over despite Shin-ui’s treatment.
“Is there even a need for this? Rather Lee…
“If you’re going to say that we should move separately, I will refuse right now.”
“Why?”
“Because we have to do it together. “If I can’t endure this much, I will eventually die.”
Not for me, but for all of us.
The war has already begun, and severe tribulation lurks everywhere.
Terrible and massive disasters that no one has ever experienced.
In order to survive the war against Dark Heaven, we must become stronger together, not just ourselves. This is because the blade, which has been pounded and hardened countless times, does not break even if it hits the rock on which it is attached.
And Jeokcheongang was one of the very few people who knew the meaning of what I said better than anyone else.
He too was reborn through hard work and hardship, and eventually became a famous swordsman who cut down countless rocks that blocked his path.
“We have to do it together…
Jeokcheongang slowly recalled what he had heard from me earlier and smiled.
“You’re all grown up.”
“I was always bigger than Noya. “Be it in the past or now.”
After hearing my answer, Jeokcheongang shook his head.
“You are also an arrogant bastard. “Be it before or now.”
“Isn’t that the charm?”
“But no matter how much I think about it, this is excessive. “This guy seems to have no blood or tears.”
“This is what Zhou Xiaoze wanted. I respected that. “If it had really hurt to the point of death, I would have tried to stop it.”
‘Put it away. Anyway, your opinion may be right, but I think we can be sure of one thing.”
“yes? What?”
“Nobu assures me that you will not find a mate until you die.”
“Why are you saying that all of a sudden?”
“done. “If you have the strength to make fun of your snout, take at least one step further.”
As I was looking at the back of Jeokcheongang, which suddenly threw extreme damage and ran like the wind, I suddenly felt my vision slowly becoming brighter and raised my head.
‘This.’
He raised his strength and kicked the ground. As I stepped on the branches of the nearest large tree (toki) and soared above the tree, I finally saw the light spreading in the distance. It was dawn.

The eleventh light that I saw every day for eleven days from the day I left Sacheondanga.
However, the reason why the light that announced the new morning felt particularly welcoming today was because of something that appeared beyond the grass and water streams that filled the area.
“ah.”
A faint sound ringing in my ears.
Hyuk Mu-jin, who was on his back, asked in a half-dead voice.
“Joe, sir. Where are we? “Is that a wall?”
I laughed out loud.
And he answered in a loud voice so that everyone under the tree could hear. “Jiangsu Province (Jiangsu Province).”
The empire is majestic and great.
But it can never last forever.
The same was true for the empire established by the nomads of the grasslands in the past, which was not that long ago compared to the history of the continent.
Each of them was an excellent warrior and shepherd, a master of heaven and earth, and a close friend of falcons and horses, but they were not great managers.
Just over one hundred years.
This is how the great empire built by the steppe invaders fell.
A hero and a devil. There were great conquerors who eventually remained as legends, and there were Ming soldiers (名 君) who strengthened their inner strength and consoled their subjects and people.
However, at the end of the stage there was terrible famine (Mil) and corruption. And only countless red flags were waving.
– You hungry people, rise up!
The era of war has begun. Those wearing blood-red flags and hoods rose up like wildfire from all directions and swept the continent.
The world called them the Red Turban Army, and they wanted to call themselves the Red Turban Army, but in reality, they were closer to the former.
They were thieves.
A thief who steals grain and wealth to fill his hungry stomach.
And thieves who want to attack even the mountains and rivers of this country,
– How can there be a separate descendant of the Queen Mother?
Even if the outside is mean, the inside is also small and shabby.
If you hit a handful of millet, you become a thief, but if you hit a continent, you become the Son of Heaven.
At the end of the long war, a hero who took control of the world was like that.
– King, please ascend to the throne!
Just like that, a new sky opened up.
Born as the son of a poor farmer, he wandered the world as a dervish monk, took control of the whole world, and rose to the position of a great man with countless subjects and people.
However, a long time passed since then, and even after one of his descendants took over the throne, nothing changed.
At least that was the case for a boy living in Jiangsu Province.
– Hey, you bastard!
You bastard.
It’s one of the phrases I’ve heard the most in my life. Even now, decades later, that moment is still clearly etched in my mind.
So much so that it always appears every time I have a nightmare like now.
u······Ah.”
Hongjin suddenly woke up and blinked. And she bowed her head politely towards the boy who was looking at her in silence.
“I dared to dream a dream in front of you. “God, please forgive my disloyalty.”
Boy, King Sangsan (上… Wang) Joo Pyo answered.
“Forgiveness is absurd.”
For a boy not yet in his mid-teens, he had an incredibly calm demeanor and a dignified voice.
The young king, who was much taller and more balanced for his age, spoke to his subjects.
“Rather, it is you, not you, who should apologize. “For putting your loyal subjects through this much trouble.”
“What a hardship. “I dare you to please refrain from speaking.”
“no. “All of this is because of Gwaine’s vice.”
“majesty······
“But don’t worry about anything. “Because what you’re worried about will never happen.”
Instead of answering, Hongjin put his hands together and spoke for a long time.
However, his eyes, looking at the floor of the slowly moving carriage, were a mix of pride and bitterness toward the young king.
‘I sincerely hope so, but your brother will think differently.’
Hongjin tried to suppress the voice rising deep in his heart.
His lord, King Sangsan, had always been an intelligent and mature boy since childhood, but he was too young to know the heartlessness of the world.
Even now, as he was surrounded by the Geumuiwi and heading to the imperial capital, as if a criminal was being taken away, he still firmly believed in his one and only biological family.
But it wasn’t Hong Jin.
‘You have already taken control of the world. What more do you want to gain from here? Hwang Sang.’
With a question that could not reach anyone, Hongjin quietly closed his eyes.
It rises in the pitch-black darkness. I hear you.
Those days when the blood didn’t dry. The days of purges when hundreds of people were torn limb from limb and thousands were executed.
And the last will of the former emperor.
– Table (約). Please take care of that child.
thud.
At the slight vibration transmitted through the carriage, Hong Jin opened his closed eyes. When he turned his head and looked to the side, he saw someone’s profile through the window.
“What’s going on?”
To Hong Jin’s soft question, the other person, wearing a shabby military uniform that did not match the name Geumuiwi (錦衣衛), answered.
“I don’t know.”
A blunt voice without any particular emotion. However, Hong Jin felt the cool blade seeping into it. An unfamiliar yet familiar feeling.
Just like the current Geumuiwi, Hong Jin, who served as the hands and feet of the former Emperor, recalled a familiar feeling that he had forgotten for over a decade.
In addition, there is also a bit of doubt. ‘Why did it stop?’
This secret procession had already entered Jiangsu Province, and the Jinyi Committee had no reason to stop. They are the ones who sacrifice their lives to carry out the royal decree.
‘There is something.’
Hongjin quietly listened. Although he is not at the level of forming a family (一 ■), he has also learned martial arts.
Fortunately, there are enough issues to use electric sound.
As if they had decided that this wasn’t the case, the sound of the members’ conversation came through the cracks in the window.
“According to what the scouting team confirmed, there was an unidentified body in front of about 300 people.
“I didn’t get close because I was worried it might be a trap, but I didn’t see any major scars…
······They may be aiming to disperse the troops, so keep moving. Don’t fall off the wagon.”
At some point the conversation that was heard over and over again
Suddenly, the carriage, which had stopped for a moment, started moving again.
All right. All right.
Hongjin thought as he listened to the quietly echoing sound of horse hooves.
‘It’s an unidentified body.’
It’s not that strange. Because the continent is vast and glass beggars were everywhere. Even Jiangsu Province, adjacent to the imperial capital, was no exception.
But why?
At this moment, the reason why one person’s name suddenly flashes through my mind.
At the same time, for some reason, this anticipation wells up from a corner of my heart.
‘no way.’
That was when Hongjin suddenly raised his head.
“Didn’t you say corpse…?”
Along with the murmur of someone on the Geumuiui Committee, a familiar voice that Hongjin had heard somewhere reached his ears.
“Captain. I swear I didn’t fall asleep. I just lay down for a moment… Wow, who are you?”
That moment. Hongjin laughed out loud, forgetting for a moment that the young king was in front of him.
