Episode 786 Either live like a dog or die like a wolf. (One)
“Oh, this is crazy!”
Hong Dae-gwang’s face was cruelly distorted as he read the letter the beggar brought.
“why?”
“I’m in an uproar, volcano god dragon!”
“What is it?”
Unlike Hong Dae-gwang, whose complexion was dark and dead, Cheongmyeong was calm and frail.
The beggar who delivered the news furrowed his brows as he looked at the two contrasting people.
‘No, why are you killing that guy here and leaving him alone?’
Although it’s not Hongdaegwang’s Bunta, isn’t there an open Bunta here too? If you are a beggar who belongs to the open government, you should come to Bunta to take care of business. Why are you in a place where bandits and bandits are encamped? … .
No, before that, why has Hwaeum Buntaju come all the way here?
“Nanjing, Taizhou, Tianhu, Huanggang, and Yuyang are all at war!”
“… … “What do you mean?”
“There’s a war! “It looks like a war broke out between the Sapa bastards and the political faction in a city on a tributary of the Yangtze River!”
“Eh?”
Because the situation was so serious, Hong Dae-gwang’s expression was dark.
“It’s not just that they’re fighting, they’re fighting to the end.”
Hyeonjong, who was listening next to him, frowned and asked back.
“Buntaju. “Are you sure about that news?”
“Boo, it’s clear, Jang Mun-in. “This is a message from the open headquarters.”
“… … If the information had come from the headquarters, it would have definitely been verified, but strangely so suddenly… … .”
Hong Dae-gwang swallowed dry saliva and opened his mouth.
“As you know, in cities with many people, political factions and secular factions coexist to some extent.”
“yes.”
“Saffron bastards cannot set foot in Hanam, where political factions are so strong. But this is not the case with other genders. “There are quite a few Sapas in Island Island, where the volcano is located right now, right?”
“Of course.”
“There are Sapa bastards even in Seomseo, where Jongnam and Volcano are located, so how can they be worse in other places? “Most people don’t like the Sapa bastards, but since there is nothing left to do in a war where people kill and kill each other, they are willing to tolerate them.”
On the contrary, it is difficult for political factions to establish a foothold in the Gangnam area, where there is almost no single faction. In particular, it is no exaggeration to say that Guangxi and Guangdong provinces, where Maninbang is located, and Zhejiang Province, where the entertainment district is the center of the commercial district, are areas of complete Sapa.
Even though the Haenam faction located in Haenam Island joined the Gu faction after the volcano fell, there must have been at least half of the reason for trying to keep these factions in check.
However, unless it was a place like this where each could claim a clear territory, the political faction and the secular faction usually harmonized with each other appropriately.
“But why suddenly?”
“I think it’s because of Shaolin and shamans.”
“Hmm.”
“The Shaolin and the shamans are flocking to the Yangtze River to subdue the enemy, but the problem is that they did not inform the other factions of their intentions in advance. So, for other sects located around the Yangtze River, this is… … .”
Hyeonyoung hit the player.
“It looks like the Gupa Ilbang and the Five Daes families are planning to join hands and dry up the seeds of the water plants in the Yangtze River?”
“That’s right.”
“haha… … . okay. “I would think that too.”
Shaolin and Shaman are the leading sects in the nine sects. The Namgung family, who can be said to be the head of the five major families, joined forces with those two schools.
Of course, even if the power of those three factions were combined, it would be 300% of the power of the previous central faction, but from the perspective of those watching from the side, it would appear as if almost all factions were joining forces.
Cheongmyeong, who had been listening quietly, smiled and opened his mouth.
“Actually, it would be good if they completely subjugated Yangtze River, and even if not, would you say that those great factions will take advantage of the fact that they are in Yangtze River and clean up all the unsightly things?”
“Well, that could happen!”
Since not all factions move with one mind and will, it is impossible to fully understand their intentions. However, looking at the situation, the reason for the move was clear.
Someone muttered.
“But no matter what, nothing happened until now, and then suddenly… … .”
It is not just one or two sects.
How many cities did Hong Dae-gwang mention? This means that war is already taking place in five places. If we include small factions that are not mentioned because they are not necessary or are not worth mentioning in emergency intelligence reports, there may be battles taking place in dozens of places.
This literally means that the war is spreading like wildfire.
“It’s all different. “They see things as clearly different now.”
“Because the Shaolin and the shamans moved?”
“Not only those two clans, but even the Namgung family has not gone on a campaign in my territory for decades.”
“… … Come to think of it.”
“It is not normal for a large sect to go on a campaign. You wouldn’t know what’s strange about a volcano, because if something erupts, it runs everywhere… … .”
Cheongmyeong raised his eyes sharply.
“what. Are you saying our butts are light now?”
“You don’t mean that… … .”
“I think that’s right?”
Hyeon-sang sighed as he looked at Hong Dae-gwang, who was starting to sweat profusely.
“Buntaju. Cheongmyeong, ignore what he said and just say what you said.”
“… … I want to do that, but I’m afraid of the consequences… … .”
“Jang Mun-in will stop you.”
In the meantime, it was a phenomenon that he did not say that he would prevent.
“anyway… … Since the Demonic Cult War, the major sects have rarely left their territory. Their departure may mean that the peaceful powerhouse that has existed so far will no longer continue.”
“Hmm.”
“Besides, isn’t the target of that expedition not the same political sect, but Sapa? It is a proven fact based on the history of martial arts so far that once the strength is full, the subjugation of Sapa will begin. So usually… … .”
“haha. “It starts with bandits.”
“… … .”

Everyone’s eyes turned to Lim So-byeong. Clear tears were flowing from his eyes.
“just as expected! Voila! There has already been news that about three mountain villages have been attacked! Oh my, it must be so crazy that the faction leaders are so motivated… … .”
“Stop crying and talk.”
“Oh, no. If you’re going to cry, cry, or if you’re going to laugh, laugh.”
“It’s because I’m laughing, I’m laughing… … .”
Lim So-byeong sighed as if the ground was falling.
“First of all, I told everyone not to fight back and to run away to the next mountain if someone attacks. It’s a shame because the places that switched industries gave advance notice to the surrounding political faction and did some business in the city… … .”
“You mean you were in business?”
“Promotion is half the battle! Promoter! “If you want to make a living, you have to do it.”
“… … .”
Bandits came down the mountain and did business in the city?
“… … What on earth is in this person’s head? … .”
“Jang Moon-in. It came out in words. “You have to think about it.”
“K-huh. I stop making mistakes… … .”
Lim So-byeong shook his head.
“Of course, I didn’t do the sales myself, but entrusted it to merchants in the city. Anyway, such a place will somehow survive, but even the living things will inevitably be swept away by this torrent, so I wonder how many more will be destroyed… … .”
He trailed off and sighed. Then Cheongmyeong said with a sullen face.
“What are you sighing for? “It would be good if the thieves were destroyed.”
“… … They say I’m a thief. “I am a thief.”
“What about karma? “Get rid of it right now.”
Hong Dae-kwang, who was listening to the nonsense, cleared his throat and continued speaking.
“That movement alone would be enough to notice the strange incident, but other factions are here as well.”
“What clan?”
“… … Grinding sapa is the best in the world. Now, there are places where you can meet people in Gupailbang and Odaesega, right?”
“Cheon Woo-maeng?”
“volcano?”
“… … That’s right.”
Hyeonyoung let out a sigh.
“So, to other political faction members, this situation looks like Tianyu Meng, the nine factions, and the five generations are collaborating to drink the eighteen waters of the Yangtze River?”
“Wouldn’t you say so?”
It’s like that wherever you look.
They are members of Hwasan and Cheonwoo Meng, so they know that the relationship between Cheonwoo Meng and the Gu faction is probably worse than the relationship with Sa faction. Other small and medium-sized sects wouldn’t think that far.
Then, of course, it would look like they joined forces to deal with the Yangtze River.
“Big clans have influence on those around them. The reason why a faction cannot set foot in a place where a large political faction is located is not because the large political faction directly manages the territory. This is because the cultural factions that support that huge political faction are destroying the seed of the faction. “Whether it’s a secular school or a completely different school.”
Everyone nodded.
The reason why there was no Sapa in the western part of Shaanxi, where Hwayeongmun advanced, is because Jongnam was there. The factions, riding on the power of the Jongnam faction, cut the Sa faction in the bud before it could even set foot.
Wasn’t it because Jongnam was visiting the royal palace that the military forces of the Maninbang attacked Xi’an in the first place?
“And this is also true of Sapa. In other words, until now, the factions around the Yangtze River had been engaging in evil acts, riding on the power of the Yangtze River Waterway. So, the political factions that have endured so far… … .”
“You started a counterattack because you saw that the ditch was going to be torn apart?”
“yes. In my opinion, yes.”
“Huh… … .”
Hyeonjong sighed for a long time.
‘This is a big deal.’
The battle taking place here right now may not be a big deal. The problem is that the fight is expanding.
“Gangbuk, where the political factions were mainly located, and Gangnam, where the political factions were mainly located, were divided by the Yangtze River.”
“yes. This is like a borderline between affection and private life. But that borderline… … I’m feeling disheveled now. They even went so far as to throw it away… … .”
Everyone’s heads turn to one person.
“why?”
“… … .”
“No, what do I know whether there is a political faction in Gangnam or a political faction in Gangbuk? I want to make a living by doing business! In front of money, where are the four factions and where are the political factions?”
Although it was true, it was not something that would come out of the mouth of a Taoist monk.
“Look, Buntaju.”
“Yes, Jang Mun-in.”
“What do you think will happen to this? From the looks of it, it doesn’t seem like it will just end like this, does it? Maybe… … .”
Hyeonjong could not bear to say anything out loud.
I was going to ask whether there was a high possibility that this spark would turn into a major war between political and political powers, but the words were so ominous that I was reluctant to even say them out loud.
However, Hong Dae-kwang was quick to understand what he was trying to say.
“I don’t think it will go that far.”
“Why do you think that?”
“Because they are Safagi.”
“hmm?”
“If Jeongpaya shaman is attacked, Shaolin will help, and if Jongnam is attacked, Hwasan… … .”
“Let’s attack together.”
“… … This example is a bit wrong. Anyway, as is natural, Sapa does not help each other. “If Surochae is attacked, rather than helping, there is a high probability that it will rush in from behind to rip off its power.”
“haha. “It looks like a monkfish.”
“So it’s not Sapa?”
Hong Dae-kwang nodded.
“yes. So, in my opinion, there is a high probability that the small temples in Gangbuk will be cleared out and Surochae will also suffer major damage. “Is there any other sect that would step up to fight against Shaolin, shamans, and the Namgung family?”
“… … “It’s definitely a burdensome name.”
“Uh-huh! “Why are volcanoes excluded?”
Hong Dae-gwang smiled bitterly at Hyeon-young’s joke.
“The problem is that because of this incident, the perception that political factions and political factions are at war is spreading. “Once that awareness starts to spread, you never know when and where something will happen, right?”
“yes. I guess so. I will no longer tolerate things that I would have tolerated in the past. Either this way or that way.”
“yes. That’s the problem though… … . “Anyway, I don’t think this will spread any further right now.”
“Then you’re lucky.”
But at that time, Cheongmyeong, who was crossing his arms, chuckled.
“Will that really happen?”
“huh?”
Hong Dae-gwang looked at him as if asking what he meant, but Cheongmyeong didn’t bother to explain and was lost in thought.
‘In the end, it’s about how the Sapa bastards come out… … .’
If you think realistically, Hong Dae-gwang’s words will be correct.
But what if there is someone who predicted this situation from the beginning and played it into my hands?
Then he will definitely try to take advantage of this situation.
“People never follow common sense. Especially a guy like that.”
“A guy like that?”
Cheongmyeong twitched the corner of his mouth.
‘That’s why people are scarier than ghosts or monsters.’
Cheongmyeong’s gaze turned towards the far south.
To that place where a person like the embodiment of desire will be watching this situation with a smile.
