CH 127
“He, that..!”
“What if I break it!” Byeok Je-hyeok shouted.
Byeok Tae-soo just stared blankly at the broken gold wall. The two men didn’t even remember that Byeok Tae-san had broken the golden wall casually. He was trembling in fear, only remembering that he had broken the things of Heaven.
What would happen if the angel found out about this? The top of the golden wall is the end. Byeok Tae-san looked down at the remains of the broken gold wall. After all, it was not just a wall, but a special structure was woven inside. Countless holes and grooves were visible in the broken and split parts. There might be something one could figure out by the structure by attaching it, but it was too cumbersome to do that.
‘Does Seung Do-heung want to find out something?’
“I will take these gold nuggets.” Byeok Tae-soo looked blankly at Byeok Tae-san, then simply nodded his head. He probably didn’t even know he was nodding or shaking his head.
“This.. If you break this.. Now our family...”
Byeok Je-hyeok muttered with a half-spirited expression on his face. Then he immediately regained consciousness and looked at Byeok Tae-san. “What the hell are you doing here!”
Byeok Tae-san looked at Byeok Je-hyeok. “Even the devil will say that you did well.”
Byeok Je-hyeok was blank at Tae-san’s words, and he looked at Byeok Tae-san. “Now.. Do you think that makes sense?”
At that, Byeok Tae-san nodded his head. “And he doesn’t come. Heaven may know that something like this exists here. I have no interest.”
Byeok Je-hyeok clenched his teeth. Did that make sense? The opponent was Cheonma and Cheonma Shinkyo. What kind of people would they make without thinking? Obviously, there would be a record about this within the Cheonma Shinkyo.
Even if they didn’t pay attention to this place right now, the moment they turned their eyes someday later, the top of the gold wall would be over. Byeok Tae-san frowned as he looked at Byeok Je-hyeok and Byeok Tae-soo.
The condition of both of them was very serious. Fear of Cheonma Shintoism engulfed reason. It would probably be difficult to get out of that state for a while.
“I’m weak.” Byeok Tae-san licked his tongue.
Byeok Je-hyeok saw this and his head became hot. However, strangely enough, Byeok Tae-san did not have the courage to attack. Even though his temper was outstretched and his head was about to explode, he didn’t want to fight Byeok Tae-san.
Byeok Je-hyeok wondered what happened to him, and then suddenly looked at the wreckage of the broken gold wall. “Ah..!”
Byeok Tae-san broke that thick gold wall in one breath. Then, his head cooled down a bit. In addition to this, he thought he was good at not messing around. If he ran around here, no one would see him, so he would have been beaten really hard.
“How are you so sure of your uncle?” Byeok Tae-san turned his gaze and looked at Byeok Tae-soo. Byeok Tae-soo was also looking at Byeok Tae-san to see if he had come to his senses.
With that, Byeok Tae-san decided to make one more secret for them to solve the current situation. “I am every thousand.”
Byeok Tae-soo and Byeok Je-hyeok stared blankly at Byeok Tae-san.

The migration of Cheonyakbang had begun. It was a long journey from opening to infinity. It was not very common, because it was far more than a thousand li and had a lot of luggage to carry.
One might never know what might happen along the way. One may encounter bandits, and one may encounter friction with the Black Sword forces. Or perhaps a poisoned horse that had become incompatible with the Cheon Yakbang would come out. Anyway, there were various dangers, but the people of Cheon Yakbang did not worry too much.
Although Cheon Yakbang was made up of legislators, he never neglected his martial arts training. And so, he didn’t have a great legislator who was famous in the world, but he can bring great power in times of emergency. No other bandit or number could ever touch the Thousand Yakbang. In addition, people from the Moorimmeng joined to help.
And so, nothing could happen. The people who came out of the Moorimmeng were, of course, the seven captains of the Cheongeomdan and the members under his command. Jojang Chil was greeted with great hospitality by the members of the Cheon Yakbang.
Although there were only thirteen, the skills of each of them were incomparable to those of the members of the Cheon Yakbang. In particular, No Joo-gang, the general manager of the Cheon Yakbang, was full of laughter whenever he saw Chiljojang. Even the chief Chil had to keep an eye on the Cheon Yakbang if he went to Wuhan anyway, so he tried to keep the relationship with Noh Joo-gang alive.
“Certainly, the Cheon Yakbang is amazing. Are you saying that all the drugs in that wagon are finished drugs?”
Captain Chil then spoke with admiration. Three fairly large carts were moving one after another where his gaze could reach, and in each cart, there were piles of medicine wrapped in white paper.
“Still, I just can’t. These days, living is so difficult that it is difficult to stock up on medicine. But thanks to you, I’m glad it’s been easy to move around like this.”
At Noju River’s words, Captain Chil nodded and looked carefully at the carts of the thousand drugstores. The number of carts was very large. And each cart was full of medicinal herbs and medicines. It would probably cost a lot of money just to sell it. However, he could not imagine how great it was in the first place, saying that it was not possible to properly meet the quantity due to the interruption of the upper part of this month.
“It must have been a long time since the release, but it will be very disappointing to throw it all away and go to Infinity.” Joogang Noh smiled bitterly at Captain Chil’s words and nodded his head. “If not, that would be a lie. In fact, it’s easy to get help from the Moorimmaeng when it’s in the open.. No regrets though. If the ark goes according to the plan, going to infinity will become a stepping stone for the future.”
Joo Chil continued to talk with No Joo-gang after that. In addition to this, it was only at the end that he asked a question he really wanted to ask. “But, Commander-in-Chief..”
“Yes. tell me.”
“It seems that there are people who do not seem to be from the Thousand Yakbang.”
“Ah, are you talking about them? They are nerds.”
“Nangin?”
Captain Chil frowned. “Did you have any reason to call Nangin? To be honest, I think we alone are enough...”
Noh Joo-kang replied with a smile as if he understood it only then. “Ah, no, you misunderstood. They are the ones sent by the ark. They are nerds who are active in Wuhan, and I cannot ignore the sincerity of the Ark.”
“Ah.. I see. I understand for now. But you should always keep in mind that the nerds are not that reliable.”
“Yes. I will keep that in mind.” Chiljojang went there and backed off a bit. In addition to this, he looked at those who were called Nangin one by one. The reason why Chil was so concerned about it was because there were some people who felt dangerous to the point that their senses were on the verge of a standstill.
‘If I was that kind of a nerd, I wouldn’t have been able to afford a penny or two...’
If Captain Chil’s senses were on the rise, it meant that if he was vigilant, he could eventually be beaten. How many masters are there enough to fight against the leader of the Thousand Swordsmen of the Moorimmeng?
Even a quick glance at the number of nangin mixed among the members of the Cheon Yakbang was over a hundred. However, at least 20 of them were the ones who touched the senses of the Chil-Chief. The rest didn’t have much of a feeling, but that didn’t mean I couldn’t be vigilant.
‘Well, I don’t know what to fight with them...’
First of all, weren’t they on the same side?
Captain Chil continued his journey while watching quietly. In addition to this, on the second night after leaving the theater, someone secretly approached the Chil. He was from the top of this month.

Byeok Tae-soo and Byeok Je-hyeok could not come to their senses after listening to Byeok Tae-san’s explanation. The explanation wasn’t long, but it contained the gist of it, so he could still clearly see what he was talking about. In fact, it was unbelievable.
However, the strange thing was that he had already believed the word. Byeok Tae-soo and Byeok Je-hyeok had to continue their conversation with Byeok Tae-san amidst such strange feelings and fears. And so, there was a secret that he could not tell anyone.
This was a greater secret than keeping a gold wall hidden. And to be honest, it was a secret that I didn’t think anyone would believe. Also, if someone believed it, bigger problems arose. Perhaps the top of the golden wall will not remain. After getting a secret like that, they parted for once. In addition to this, Byeok Tae-soo was alone with Byeok Tae-san.
This was an issue that could not be easily overlooked. This was especially true for Tae-soo Byeok himself. “I don’t know what to say. Can I do it comfortably like before?”
Byeok Tae-san smiled brightly at the question and nodded his head. “It’s good that I’m comfortable doing it like I used to.”
Byeok Tae-san was also talking to Byeok Tae-soo. Magistrate Wall hesitated for a moment, then he asked. “If.. The real Tae-san is.. Are you dead?”
Byeok Tae-san scratched his cheek with his finger. This was a thought-provoking answer. “First.. Just before I died, I saved my body.”
“The body.. Does that mean the soul is dead?”
Byeok Tae-san swung his fingers. “Mixed.”
“Mixed?”
“What.. At first, I thought I had the body of Byeok Tae-san, but as I got older, that wasn’t the case. mixed very oddly.”
Byeok Tae-soo looked at Byeok Tae-san with a firm expression on his face. His eyes were very deep and calm. In addition to this, it was sharp as if he was trying to find out if Byeok Tae-san was sincere or not.
“Really.”
“Because I have no reason to lie.” How many times could a heavenly demon deceive a person?
Byeok Tae-soo nodded his head loudly. “Then you must be my brother too.”
With that, Byeok Tae-san could tell that Tae-soo Byeok’s expression became very comfortable when he said that.
Tae-soo smiled softly. “That’s it. His younger brother has become healthy and it means that he has gained Ki-yeon, so we should congratulate him. What I can’t remember.. It’s a bit sad.”
“Oh, remember. It’s not like there’s nothing left of it.” Byeok Tae-soo opened his eyes and looked at Byeok Tae-san.
“It’s a short scene, but there are some things that I remember. And there are still some pieces of emotion.”
If it weren’t for that, he wouldn’t have been so good to the supreme commander. At that, Byeok Tae-soo couldn’t hide his surprised expression. In addition to this, his expression became more comfortable. Byeok Tae-san watched the change of Byeok Tae-soo and said abruptly.
“It looks like you are learning martial arts well.” Tae-hyung smiled brightly and nodded his head. It was a gift from someone, who wouldn’t neglect it?
In fact, he had to keep hearing about how his energy improved and my body improved a lot after he earned how to suckle. Every time the governor brags, he was sad and jealous, but after that, he told him that Byeok Tae-san was better and gave me martial arts, so how precious would that be.
“Thanks to you, I have taken a lot of medicine and my body has improved a lot.”
“If you learn it well, you won’t go anywhere and get hit.”
What Byeok Tae-san gave to Byeok Tae-soo was a transformed tam-hyeol magong. Originally, it was a mage who lusted for blood, but it was changed to obtain power through an elixir instead of blood. Still, a scavenger hunt was a quest mage. If one was to suck blood at a critical moment later, they might be able to save their life at least once.
And so, he made that part clear. “It can suck blood. It’s dangerous, so don’t use it carelessly.”
Byeok Tae-soo’s eyes grew as bright as a fire. “This.. You are a magician.”
“It’s a scavenger hunt. I modified it to use an elixir instead of blood. However, remodeling does not mean that all original effects are lost.”
Byeok Tae-soo then asked with a serious expression on his face. “What happens when you absorb blood?”
“Your disposition can become a bit cruel. But in an emergency, it’s okay to use it once or twice.”
Magistrate Wall nodded his head. That’s fine. “I don’t want to create an emergency.”
Byeok Tae-san chuckled. “Right. You know it well.”
It was best to win without fighting. Byeok Tae-san and Byeok Tae-soo had a lot of conversations after that. Tae-soo’s expression softened more and more, and sometimes he was drenched in emotion. It was the first time in his life that he had a conversation with Byeok Tae-san for such a long time.
Byeok Tae-soo enjoyed that precious experience.
* * *
Byeok Je-hyeok couldn’t even remember how the conversation went. It felt like his brain was empty.
‘Heavenly horse.’
He honestly couldn’t believe it. However, if one were to listen to Byeok Tae-san, it would happen automatically. It was as if words were engraved into the soul bag. ‘No one should know!’
If this happened, it was the end. In fact, Byeok Je-hyeok was obsessed with keeping secrets much stronger than he himself had thought. Byeokje-hyuk, who had been walking so blankly, arrived at Mi-ryeong’s residence as his mother. He didn’t come here to come, he came here unconsciously.
As he entered the hall, she ran out and greeted him as if Chae Mi-ryung had been waiting. “My son, why did you come here like this? Ah, you said you were meeting your father today, so it seems like you came here for that.”
Chae Mi-ryeong brought Byeok Je-hyuk inside her quickly and sat down across from her table. In addition to this, she looked at Byeok Je-hyeok with eyes full of anticipation. “Come on, let’s talk. What did you talk about with your father? Anyway, the complexion is not very good. Did anything bad happen?”
Byeok Je-hyeok quickly corrected his expression and shook his head. He shouldn’t make tea.
“No, mother.” Byeok Je-hyeok told Chae Mi-ryung only the conversation that happened in the reception room today. Hearing all of that, Chae Mi-ryung trembled with an angry expression.
“It looks like you’re going to give him the upper hand fortune.” Chae Mi-ryung smiled brightly and looked at Byeok Je-hyeok.
“My son has nothing to worry about. This mother will take care of everything. How many giru do we have, give them all of them? Nonsense.”
Byeok Je-hyeok was shocked to hear that. “No! That’s not it, mother!”
“Huh? Why all of a sudden?”
“Since the proportion of Giru in the top of our gold wall is so small, it is better not to worry about it. Considering the price of safely inheriting the top, isn’t it cheap?”
“No, but...”
At that, Byeok Je-hyeok shook his head fiercely. “Absolutely not. Just leave it alone. I’m begging you like this Isn’t the status of the top of the golden wall going to rise only when your uncle does well? So please do not do anything.”
Chae Mi-ryung’s eyes narrowed slightly. ‘Why is he doing this?’
“Since your uncle is going to be independent soon, please keep an eye on it quietly for the time being. Promise me that you will.”
Byeok Je-hyeok insisted so strongly that Chae Mi-ryung was unable to say anything. Here, if she were to cut with a single knife, her son’s spirit would die, and he would not be able to do anything big in the future. “What.. Don’t do that.”
As soon as Byeok Je-hyeok heard that answer, he breathed a big sigh of relief.
