Proof (2)

 

He couldn't say what he was thinking, so Mu Jin pointed to Gu Yang and replied.

"After all, the purpose is to summon Jin Yanghui, so wouldn't it be better for someone who knows him well to write a letter? For now, it is a letter in the name of the Lord of the Beast Palace, and they will not read it or throw it away."

Gu Yangfei, who was about to interpret Mu Jin's words, heard these words and expressed doubts.

"I've never met Jin Yanghui... What do you know about him that you have written to me?"

Mu Jin replied to Gu Yang's question as if it were a matter of course.

"All you have to do is send it according to the doctrine of the Demon Religion. If you believe in the doctrine of Maism, you will never be able to refuse."

"But what if you don't come out?"

"Tsk· Opposition· If it still doesn't come out, it means he's just an apostate, not a faithful believer, right? It means we don't even have to meet..."

“!!!”

At the words that pierced the head, Gu Yang nodded.

* * *

By the time Mujin and the Red Tiger entered the Beast Palace, Located in the northeastern part of the South Manchuria, the heart of the Odokmun Gate·

"Did they join hands with the Beast Palace?"

A man called the Five Great Liquors in Shincheon· At Huang Gon's question, Wenju smiled wry and nodded.

"Hmph... Yes, sir..."

"How did you get that information?"

In response to Huang Gon's question, which was full of suspicion as the lord of the Divine Heaven, the lord of the Wu Gate replied with a fishy smile.

"This is the information I received from Sejak, who had sent me to Mandon in advance to assess the situation. If you don't feel like it, why don't you send someone to Mengdon now? The inn exploded and there was a war of words, and everyone in the area saw it."

At the explanation of the misreading, Huang Gon stroked his beard. It was a habit that came out when I was lost in thought.

When Huang Gon was trying to deduce how things ended up like this... Wu Dokmun said with a satisfied smile on his face.

"Hmph... Heaven seems to have raised our hand. The stupid Sun Palace and the Beast Palace have begun to fight on their own. At first, I thought that this was all prepared by the Grand Master of Huanggon..."

It was misleading enough.

Leaking information to the Sun Palace that the Red Tiger was targeting them was also something that Huang Gon had prepared.

However, it wasn't that the Beast Palace and the Sun Palace would be in conflict, or that the Red Tiger Group would join hands with the Beast Palace in the first place.

Originally, the plan prepared by Huang Gon and Wu Dokmun was simply to have the Red Tiger and the Sun Palace go into battle.

While the Red Tiger Corps shakes the Sun Palace· He intended to strike the Beast Palace.

He had already raised money for the army through exchanges with the Fortune Teller, developed various poisons, and hired Nanjing, so if the Huang Gon's forces gave him a little help, he could devour the Beast Palace as much as he wanted.

It's just that the Sun Palace didn't start an all-out war because it was trying to take a fool's edge.

In the meantime, Huang Gon received a sword. From a certain person in the Divine Heaven who has delved deeply into the Heavenly Demon Religion.

They wanted to deal with some of the later exponents that would be the biggest obstacle to swallowing up the Heavenly Demon God.

Based on the information they had sent him, Huang Gon had come up with a plan.

In addition to dealing with the goal of those who have infiltrated the Heavenly Demon God Sect, the Red Tiger Sect and the Nine Yang Clan, the Great Realm of the Five Poison Gates, which can devour the Beast Palace.

"But how did the Red Tiger and the Beast Palace come to be connected?"

Thanks to this, the Beast Palace and the Sun Palace were engaged in an all-out war, which was definitely a good thing for the Odok Mun.

"For a while, I'm going to have to concentrate the power of the main heaven in the south..."

The cautious Huang Gon was suspicious that the plan had not gone as expected.

That's why this event was so important.

As the lord of Xintian who was in charge of Nanman and Yunnan, it was the most important starting point for taking control of this area.

* * *

In the end, Gu Yangfai followed Mu Jin's suggestion and wrote a letter to Jin Yanghui.

Mu Jin asked, looking at the inscription written in Mandarin, which looked more like a picture than a letter.

"What did you say?"

"The story of the doctrine of the school. You, an outsider, will not be able to sympathize or understand if you hear it. I don't need to know..."

Mu Jin shrugged his shoulders at Gu Yang's answer.

"I don't know the details of the doctrine of the Demon Religion, but isn't that what it is? Why should Chen Ma lead the poor Yang people? That the greater evil can be better controlled. Lastly, they are discussing how the future Heavenly Horse will save the people of Yang."

I hadn't read the Demon Cult's catechism, but I had read a few conversations between the characters of the Demon God Church in the first part of the novel, so I knew the rough outline.

Just because they followed the law of the strong didn't mean they were a crazy group.

To put it bluntly, the justification for prioritizing the law of the strong was written in that doctrine.

The reason why Tianma had to lead the Yang people was that the weak could not protect them from external attacks.

And the reason why it had to be a thousand horses was because evil is better at catching evil.

Isn't it justice to fail to protect the people of the country for the sake of the cause?

Lastly, the way of salvation that the future Tianma would perform was strictly a code of conduct for those who had become a cult leader.

It was not meant to crush all the heavenly horses, but to use his strength to save the people of Yang.

Furthermore, the demons, the servants of the Heavenly Horse, also had to follow the norm.

'Hmm... When I was younger, it looked cool, but now that I think about it, it's a very serious doctrine of middle ear disease."

Defeating evil with evil... It was as if a black flame dragon was about to grow out of his arm.

In any case, it had its own doctrinal text, so it could function as a religion.

If the doctrine is that the powerful can have everything and can do whatever they want, then would it be reasonable to spread it as a "religion" among the general public?

When Mu Jin pointed out the doctrine of the Demon Cult with a rough degree of accuracy, Gu Yang Fei became interested.

"The Shaolin monk understands our doctrine... Oh, were you a member of the Academy?"

“··· I'm not interested in middle ears."

"Brain disease? What kind of disease is that?"

"That's it. What did you write in the survey?"

"Hmm· As you say. Referring to the doctrine, I said, "If you are proud of yourself, come forward and prove it." If you are a mere apostate, I will kill you, and if you preach doctrine in a foreign land, I will go back."

Mujin nodded, "I see."

"Now that we have a few days to go until the Sun Palace receives the examination and we meet him, we must concentrate on healing."

"I didn't mean to... Whether things go well or badly, there's a good chance you'll get into a fight at least once."

After the conversation, Gu Yangfei handed over the examination he had written to the Beast Palace Master.

And the next morning·

Looking at the herald of the Beast Palace, who was holding the seal of the Beast Palace Master and the banner of the Beast Palace in one hand, Mu Jin wanted to cover his face.

After all, the messenger was Su Linya, the creator of today's Four Moons.

'Damn· If you're a messenger, it's natural to leave it to someone with quick feet, but I forgot this..."

He is so quick with geography that he was in charge of guiding himself, and he is quick on his feet.

Come to think of it, no one was better suited for the role of messenger than Su Linya.

Except for that indiscriminate snout.

'No, it is not. Let's think positively· In the first place, all the guys in the Beast Palace are innocent and unlucky. It doesn't matter who goes."

Remembering the essence of the Beast Palace, Mujin realized that this was a meaningless worry.

For now, he could only hope that the Sun Palace would have a little patience.

No matter who goes as a messenger in the Beast Palace, the indiscriminate snout will be no different.

In the midst of so many worries and concerns, Su Lin Ya left for the Sun Palace.

And Gu Yang began full-fledged treatment.

To be precise, he locked himself in his room and repeated the ritual of chanting day and night.

In order to recover from internal injuries and to refine the martial arts that I realized in the fight with martial arts.

While the Gu Yang Gang was out of doors, and the members of the Red Tiger Corps were guarding the room.

"Huh Whoa..."

Mujin had been wandering around for the past few days, working hard to make up for his lack of exercise.

And on the fourth day·

Su Linya, who had left as a messenger, returned with a message from the Sun Palace.

* * *

Looking at Xu Linya, who had returned with the inspection sent by the Sun Palace Lord, Mu Jin muttered involuntarily.

"Hmm· Luckily, the Sun Palace Master must have been a very patient man..."

And it was Gu Yang-pae who dared to translate the words from the side.

Hearing Gu Yang's translation, Xu Lin Ya snorted and exclaimed.

"Hmph· He was smaller than a flea! If you let me stay in the Sun Palace, there will be an immediate war, so I was sent out to grow up outside!"

Mu Jin, who understood Xu Linya's words thanks to Gu Yang, nodded, "I see."

"He lacks patience, but he's a wise man."

Even if he had been a member of the Sun Palace, if Su Lin Ya had spent a day in the Sun Palace, he would have turned his jaw out.

The Beast Palace Lord asked Su Linya if he wasn't interested in their poetic conversation.

"Humph! After all, they look like timid Sun Palace bastards! And what did they say?"

Instead of answering directly, Su Lin Ya held out the examination she had received from the Sun Palace Lord.

The Beast Archer, who had glanced at the inspection, threw it away as if he was in trouble.

"Tsk· After all, they are the ones who make easy things unnecessarily difficult..."

"What does it say?"

Mu Jin's question was answered by the Beast Archer, snorting and wriggling his pectoralis muscle.

"In three days, we will meet at the Daimaesa Tomb (多伊梅沙龙 ดอยแม่สลอง) and decide whether or not to fight each other."

Hearing the Beast Palace's succinct answer, Mu Jin's gaze naturally turned to the inspection that had fallen to the ground.

‘··· That long article has been reduced to just one sentence?'

The inscription was full of picturesque writing.

* * *

The next day·

Mujin and the Red Tiger Brigade· And about two hundred of the Beast Palace Master and the Beast Palace warriors left the Beast Palace together.

In terms of the number of people, it felt like they were moving for war, not for negotiations.

But he wasn't already moving to ambush the appointment.

Even though there were still two days to go, the reason I left so early was because the meeting place was quite far away.

I heard that the place called Daimaesa Tomb is a wide mountain range located halfway between the Beast Palace and the Sun Palace, and it is located further south than the village of Mengdon that I had previously visited.

Even Su Linya, who is quick on her feet in the Beast Palace, had set off two days early because it was too far to get there in one day.

However, when Mujin left the Beast Palace, he felt puzzled as if he was a soldier.

'What are you going to do with the supply?'

A total of two hundred and fifty people have to travel a distance of more than a day.

But no matter how I looked at it, I couldn't see any troops for supply.

After all, everyone was carrying weapons to use in battle.

"I don't think I'm going to go to town . . ."

Judging from the behavior of the personnel, it seemed difficult to pass through a village or something.

That's right...

Crrrrr

Kang ·

Kiyuuu~

Two hundred beast bow warriors meant that there were two hundred animals with them.

Some of them were small, like monkeys and birds, but there were also many carnivores, such as bears and cheetahs. First and foremost·

"Hahahahaha· It's been a long time since I've been out of town, so it looks like I'm excited. Mankr·"

A giant serpent with a length of ten sheets. Mankr was also with him.

I thought that if I led them to the villages where the ordinary people lived, the villages would be swept away.

In the midst of all this, how are they going to get the replacement? Mujin's question was resolved after about two o'clock.

Thanks to the shout of the Beast Archer, who stopped the movement that had been going on for nearly two hours.

"We'll gather here again in the next hour! Let each one prepare his own food!"

“???”

Where's the food?

While Mujin was thinking about it. The warriors of the Beast Palace, numbering two hundred, quickly dispersed in all directions.

And for a moment, I hope that I will hear the commotion from all corners of the jungle soon.

The warriors, who had been scattered in all directions, began to return with their hands the animals they had hunted or the plants and fruits they had gathered from the jungle.

"Oh . . . Was it locally sourced?"

While Mujin muttered in amazement,

"Bring some food for the Little Cult Master!"

"Show them the field skills of the Great Heavenly Demon God Sect!"

Likewise, the members of the Red Tiger Corps, who had just figured out what was going on, began to fly in all directions.

Thinking that the food in the area might run out, Mujin called the group, but for some reason, Mu Yul did not come.

"But where has Mu Yul gone?"

In response to Mujin's question, Mu Gong and Mu Qing pointed somewhere.

Uki!

"Lingling! Isn't it delicious~?"

“@#[email protected]#$”

"Are you giving this to us? Thank you!"

“!##$#@$#@”

There, Mu Yul, who had just returned from hunting with the Beast Palace warriors, was enjoying a meal while conversing with the Beast Palace warriors with hand gestures.

"That filthy bastard!"

While trembling at Muyul's betrayal...

One by one, the Red Tiger Corps, who had moved quickly, gathered around the Gu Yang Gang with animals and fruits.

"Let's eat. Lord Lesser·"

The most striking thing was the first to pick fruit and deliver it to Gu Yang.

The sight of him blushing slightly and handing over the fruit, or the way Gu Yang was clearing his throat and pretending not to know, was so eye-watering that I couldn't help but look at it.

In the meantime, the Red Tiger Corps, who had been looking for food, gathered around the Guyang Gang and prepared field food one by one.

Sensing Mujin's gaze, the Red Tiger members looked at them.

'You can't do this, can you?'

"But what do you think people who come from political parties can do?"

He didn't say it openly, but for some reason he could convey that kind of meaning.

“··· Are we being bullied?"

Did he hear Mujin's murmur? Gu Yang, who had been treated with the utmost respect by the Red Tiger Members, suddenly spoke to them.

"If you don't have enough food, why don't you have this together?"

Gu Yang had asked with sincerity, but ... It was an unacceptable offer.

That's why the eyes of the Red Tiger members, including Clue Yun, were quite fierce.

"Don't worry about it, we'll take care of it..."

In addition to his grief, Mu Jin's pride was hurt for some reason, and he rejected Gu Yang's kindness and led Mu Qing and Mu Gong to the bush.

"Wait· These· I'm the one who secretly hunted and ate the meat of the Shaolin elders in Songshan!"

Mu Qing sighed at Mu Jin's cry of evil.

"Mujin-ah· That's not bragging..."
