Shaolin (2)

 

After Hye-kwan and Mu-kyung entered Uiwang County, I strolled through the streets and took in the atmosphere of the town.

The two of them had already been disguised before they entered Uiwang County, so they didn't really attract attention.

Luckily, the atmosphere in the village was peaceful.

If the body of a woman or child had been mutilated, it probably wouldn't have this kind of atmosphere.

"Uh-huh..."

Hye-kwan, who was blowing on a bottle and scurrying around with a sharpener, took a look at the atmosphere and sent a telegram to Mu Kyung, who was swiping around.

– If you say so blatantly, "I'm here to catch someone," won't he run away?

It was only then that he realized his mistake and began to walk facing the front.

It was a stiff gait.

"You want to have a drink, too..."

Rather than having a drink to relax, Hye-kwan handed the bottle of wine he was holding to Mu-kyung.

Boom Boom ·

Mu Kyung also took a cold sip of alcohol for a natural performance.

Then the two grandsons walked along the street in a pattern of a sword.

The appearance of being drunk in broad daylight was a shameless look to anyone.

After making a big lap around the center of the village, Hye-kwan walked into a large inn.

“???”

While he was drunk and dazed, Mu Kyung also followed Hye Kwan into the guest room with a puzzled face.

"Hehehe... What do you want me to give you?"

A talented fortune teller who doesn't lose his smile even when facing a customer who already looks drunk asked Hye-kwan.

"I'll give you a nice room on the top floor. I'm going to stay for a few days..."

Saying that, Hyekwan, who flicked his fingers on a piece of gold and handed it to Jumsoi, added.

"Oh... I'm going to have another drink before I get into my room, so I'll serve you the best food and the most expensive liquor here. Hmph· If I'm a drinker, I'm a guy. You know what happens when you cheat, don't you?"

Rich Hanliang· Or Hye-kwan, who had finished her order acting like a bully, said, "That's good~" and added a postscript.

Mu Qing, who was watching the situation, was drunk, but he grabbed the last of his mind and asked, "What are you doing?"

– Sajo· I need to catch the killer, but can I drink and relax here like this?

– Hmph· If outsiders like us continue to wander around the streets, won't we be noticed?

– Then why did you say earlier...?

– It was to examine the atmosphere and geography of the prefecture. Apparently, this inn is the most suitable for the whole prefecture. The alley at the back is full of tiles, and there are a lot of women walking around, and on the east side, there is a school hall and a military hall, so it seems that there are a lot of children walking around.

Hearing Hye-kwan's explanation, Mu-kyung had to try to hide his surprise.

I thought I was walking around drunk without thinking, but I was walking around analyzing these things while I was really drunk.

After all, the experience was the kind of thing that couldn't be ignored.

"I'll start with the little dragon cannon that comes out right now!! And sake is the most exquisite bean wine in our guest room."

While Mu-kyung hurriedly tries to control his surprised expression for acting. Before I knew it, Fortune Telling began to bring wine and food to the table.

Then, Hye-kwan reached out in an instant and took the bean kangju that Jumsoi offered him.

"Hmmm~"

Quickly removing the cloth that sealed the entrance of the bean gangju, Hyekwan sniffed the incense with the momentum of inhaling the liquor through his nose.

"This is the kind of fragrance that deserves to be called superb! Hahahahaha!"

Hye-kwan laughed with satisfaction and began to pour the exquisite bean wine into her mouth.

“····”

Mu Kyung, who had been greatly moved a moment ago, was looking at Sajo like a madman.

* * *

For a few days, Hye-kwan and Moo-kyung spent a similar amount of time staying in the inn.

Occasionally he would go for a walk, but most of the time he spent drinking in the inn.

Hyekwan spread out and went to sleep in the morning when there were a lot of people coming and going, and woke up around the time of the transition from Misi (13 ~ 15 o'clock) to Sinsi (15 ~ 17 PM).

Afterwards, they had a quick meal and a drink before leading the martial arts out of the inn.

He would glance around and watch from afar the children who had just finished their studies in the military attachés or schools.

When the sun was completely set, we returned to the inn. I would drink until the morning sun came up.

Of course, Mu Kyung would go to bed first at midnight (23 p.m. ~ 1 p.m.), wake up around the time Hye Kwan fell asleep, and look around the village through the window of his guest room in the morning.

And today, looking at the trend of drinking alcohol one after another, Mu Kyung went to bed.

‘··· Do you really want to catch that spiritless demon?'

I thought I had come here to make work an excuse and to spread my drink in peace.

Mu Qing thought of it in his heart, and little by little, he delved into his dreams.

And when Mu Qing was wandering in a deep dream...

"Get up."

A small whispered voice in his ears.

Mu Qing hurriedly opened his eyes, and the sky through the window of the inn was still dark.

"He's moved..."

Saying that, Hye-kwan's body smelled like a strong liquor.

It wasn't because he was drunk. It was because he drove away the liquor that had accumulated on his body at once.

Hye Guan had been chasing the Demon Spirit for two years, so even if she didn't know his face or name, she knew his habits very well.

The killer didn't have a specific target. He didn't have a noble hobby of preying on the children of the grand viziers.

If they had been victimized, even the most ingenious of them would have been caught immediately. It wouldn't have been just one or two people who were after him...

But it always preyed on those who were living in need.

When the courtesans who work in Giru go out into the streets at dawn to catch their breath before going to sleep after working late in the morning.

When children from ordinary families play among themselves after classes in military or school halls, and then return home at sunset.

Or they would prey late at night on widowed women or children who had lost their parents or were left on the streets because they were poor.

That's why Hye-kwan slept in the morning and in the middle of the day, and kept an eye on the village from midnight until late in the morning.

And the killer moved to kidnap the courtesan.

Hye-kwan, who woke up Mu Kyung, threw away the liquor and at the same time unfolded the light attack and threw his body flying.

Mu Qing was also stunned, but he quickly came to his senses and followed Hye Guan.

Chasing the energy of a creature who had become accustomed to being secret, Hyekwan moved stealthily as if he had assimilated into it.

As a result of their pursuit, they were able to leave Uiwang County and reach a small mountain nearby.

And it wasn't long before they could spot a human figure in the bushes.

"Please save me..."

The courtesan begging with tears streaming down her cheeks and the black man swinging a thin and sharp sword at him.

Instead of yelling to get his attention, Hyekwan turned his inner air to speed up.

Pot!!

“!!!”

Suddenly realizing Hye-kwan's signs of flying through the bushes, the black-robed man hurriedly swung his sword at Hye-kwan.

Bang!

Immediately after exchanging a sum of money· The black man who had reacted to the surprise attack in a hurry bounced back about a chapter.

"Guarding her, Lord Mu..."

"Yes· Sajo-sama·"

And Mu Kyung and Hye Kwan didn't miss the opportunity to push the black man away, and first protected the woman.

Hye-kwan, who had entrusted the woman to Mu-kyung, wasted no time in rushing at the martial spirit demon again.

Compared to the guy who only kidnapped and killed women and children in a despicable way, the martial arts of the Soulless Blood Demon were quite outstanding.

In an instant, Hye Kwan, who had exchanged a few words with the Demon Demon, smiled fishy and opened his mouth.

"You're going to have to Just in case, you're from Salsu..."

Concealment that conceals the body and light attack technique that leaves almost no trace of aura ·

And the martial arts that made use of the small sword were also stealthy, but they were relentlessly aiming for the vital points.

“····”

In response to Hye-kwan's question, the Demon of Zero Blood did not answer. He was just looking for a chance to escape through his red eyes peeking through his mask.

However, it is difficult to escape from Hye-kwan's grasp after understanding the opponent.

Hyekwan didn't make a chance for him to escape, and he pushed him away.

Kung!

After exchanging words again, The moment when the internal wound distorted the internal attack operation·

Hye-kwan, who was digging in to finish it off, turned sharply and swung his arms together.

Visor!

Visor!

He had blocked a dagger that suddenly flew out of thin air.

"Who are they?"

Then, before Hye-kwan's question could fall, a group of men in black robes appeared from the shadows of the bushes.

‘··· Wasn't the Spirit-Demon the one who moved alone?'

Hyekwan thought they were the same as the Spiritless Bloodsuckers.

It wasn't just because of the clothes he was wearing and the fact that he had attacked himself.

When they throw their daggers. And when he appeared when he broke his stealth spell, the aura he gave off was very similar to that of a spiritless demon.

It meant that they had mastered the same kind of martial arts.

Therefore, what happened next was unexpected for Hyekwan as well.

The black-robed people who appeared were hiding behind the Zero Blood, as if it was to attract attention, and the black-robed man swung his dagger in surprise.

Visor!

“큭·”

Towards the Spiritless Demon.

Narrowly avoiding the blow, the Zero Spirit Demon let out a faint moan.

And with that groan, the black-robed men moved again.

Some towards Hye-kwan and Mu-kyung, and some towards the Zero-Spirit Demon.

In the midst of his puzzlement, Hyekwan quickly made up his mind.

"Protect her!"

Shouting at Mu Kyung, Hye Kwan battled the black men who were attacking him, observing the movements of the Mu Spirit Demon.

It was an unexpected invasion of the black-robes, but it was no different.

"You've got more karma than I expected today."

The only difference was that there were more people to kill.

Cultivating martial arts like the Demon Demon meant that those black-robed people were the ones who could kill...

The killers who made a living from murder and took money to kill were also evil enemies that Hye-kwan, the leader of the Annihilation Brigade, had to exterminate.

"It seems that the Spiritless Demon will also have a hard time escaping..."

What a relief.

If the Spiritless Demon had escaped while he was dealing with the Killer, it would have been killing him again somewhere.

All that was left was for the Demonless Demon to kill the Killers before they did.

"Haa

In the meantime·

With a woman behind him, he was fighting with three men in black.

It was quite a hassle to fight the killer in the woods where the darkness of the night was still there.

They used the shadows of the forest to hide and distance themselves and throw daggers, or sneak in and swing their swords.

What was particularly troublesome was that after several attacks were blocked, they began to target women who were not martial arts.

Visor!

"Aa

When the police stop the dagger that flew right in front of her, the startled woman screams.

Then, taking advantage of the noise she made, a man in black suddenly appeared out of the darkness and swung his sword at him.

Visor!

While his body was tilted to one side to protect the woman, he was able to swing his legs and narrowly smash away the sword.

"Phew..."

After narrowly escaping the danger, Mu Qing caught his breath and looked around with calm eyes.

Weeeeeeeing·

Suddenly, he raised his energy and created more than twenty golden drops of water in the air.

Then, the water droplets created by the martial arts suddenly flew into the darkness.

Visor!

Visor!

Whoops!

A few times I heard a metal sound in the darkness that seemed to be nothing. There was an unpleasant noise that pierced the flesh, and blood flowed out of the darkness.

After fending off several ambushes, he had adapted to their stealth skills.

"I'm glad you learned the Shadow Ball and the Ghost Treasure."

It was clearly a different martial arts from the two, but it was of a similar type, so it wasn't too difficult to analyze.

The moment when Mu Qing used the Golden Beast Divine Ball to kill the two killers in an instant.

휭!

In the darkness, the Flesh Sword, which had reduced its noise to the extreme, aimed at the heart of the martial arts and dug in.

Visor!

Moving his body at the same time as unfolding the Golden Beast Divine Ball was too simple for the current martial arts officer.
