Return of the flowery Mountain Sect English - Chapter 776
Chapter 776 You will die if you fall behind (6)
Knock!
The sound of a severed head falling onto the sand is terrifying.
The sound was not very loud, but it was clearly heard by everyone fighting in this vast space.
“Cha-Chaeju….” – said the pirate
“Ugh….” – said the pirate
Chaeju is dead.
Not in the hands of the person who was going on a crazed rampage a moment ago, but in the hands of someone else. The implications are very clear.
‘We, we can’t win. ‘ -said the pirate
‘Damn, we shouldn’t have come to this place.’ – said the pirate
Basically, whether it was a mountain fort or a water fort, the backbone of a newly formed group consisted of those with mediocre skills, those who didn’t fit in anywhere else, or those who had committed crimes and fled.
There was no such thing as loyalty to such people, so with Chaeju dead, there was no desire to fight anymore. Only fear and confusion spread.
The pirates’ eyes were filled with sadness and despair.
Thinking that the atmosphere was ripe, Chung Myung grinned and stepped forward.
“We will all die…” said the pirate
“Drop your weapons. I will forgive those who surrender.” -said Baek Chun
“…….”
Chung Myung looked back with his eyes wide open.
Before he knew it, Baek Chun had already stepped forward and shouted.
“Those who resist must be prepared to lay down their lives! I won’t warn you twice! Drop your weapons!” -said Baek Chun
The pirates trembled and stared at each other when they heard loud screams.
In fact, Chaeju’s death was only symbolic. Regardless
whether he lives or dies, the outcome is already determined. They never had a chance to win.
Realizing this, they immediately threw their weapons and fell to the ground
“Are we going to save them again?” – said the bandit
“Just kill them all! What is the point
save these bastards?” – said the bandit
Then, an absurd situation arose where the bandits vehemently insisted that they must kill all the pirates.
If it was Chung Myung, he would investigate such bandit bandits first, but Baek Chun was someone who knew what minimal courtesy should be given to those who had helped them.
“I want to avoid unnecessary killing.” – said Baek Chun
“Hmm…… Well, you are all Taoists after all.” – said the bandit
The bandits nodded and withdrew as if they were convinced.
Originally, they were only here to provide support, and they did not make any significant contributions in the battle that required raising their voices. However, most of the credit goes to Chung Myung, who was waving beside Baek Chun.
“Drop your weapons, bastards!” -said the bandit “Huh? Did they refuse?” – said the bandit
Most immediately gave up, but there were also those who fought until the end.
If Mount Hua’s disciples were to surround them,
they would probably try to subdue them without killing them. But surrounding them now were bandits from Nokrim. They could not be so merciful as to save those who resisted.
“Arghhh!” – said the pirate
“Sis!” – said the pirate
In an instant, those who were pierced by the dao collapsed as they died. Only after seeing that, those who had been holding onto their weapons until the end hurriedly surrendered.
“Hmm.”
Baek Chun’s mouth hardened as he watched the scene. Really, this is too easy.
No doubt it was difficult for the five swords before, but it took less than a day to destroy the two water fortresses since Chung Myung appeared and conquered them.
“This is disappointing.” -said Baek Chun
This simple task…..
No, thinking about it coldly, this was not a simple task. If all this were actually simple,
was there any reason for the other sects to just sit idly by and watch?
On the contrary.
That doesn’t mean this task is simple, it’s simple because Chung Myung is here.
Looking back, everything they went through was just a difficult and complicated situation.
They fought with the South End Sect, befriended the Sichuan Tang Family, visited the Namman Yasugung Clan, and fought with Magyo in the North Sea.
‘It all happened because of him.’ -Baek Chun thought
He thought he had understood it enough. But if you think about it, Mount Hua’s disciples, including Baek Chun, had underestimated Chung Myung’s abilities and only focused on his martial prowess.
“Why are you so sullen?” -said Chung Myung “Huh?” -said Baek Chun
Hearing the sudden voice, Baek Chun looked back. Chung Myung looked at him with a confused face.
“We won.” -said Chung Myung
“….Ah, right.” -said Baek Chun
Hearing Baek Chun’s hesitant answer, Chung Myung chuckled. .
‘He must have noticed.’ – thought Chung Myung
Improving one’s skills is a good thing, and it is very important.
But what was most important in real combat was creating a situation where one could fully utilize the skills they had developed. The Five of Swords’ biggest mistake this time was rushing into it
or move hastily and surrender the advantage to the enemy.
That was because they were dragged into situations where they couldn’t utilize their skills to the fullest.
‘And this is also my fault.’ – thought Chung Myung
Seeing this situation happen, he felt the meaning of Hyun Jong’s words down to his bones.
Chung Myung’s existence is a great fortune for them, but on the contrary, it is also a great obstacle.
– No, it’s yangban! If you have a plan, say it, and discuss it! Or at least move with common sense. you fly alone, poke this side, and poke that side! If you always turn it around, what about the people who follow you! (Tang Bo)
‘ so noisy, asshole! ‘-Chung Myung Tang Bo’s mind also sometimes grumbled.
Even Tang Bo who could be considered an elder of the Tang Family struggled to follow Chung Myung through the battlefield. How difficult would it be for a Mount Hua disciple who was not only inferior in skill to Tang Bo, but also lacked experience?
Learning is only meaningful if it is understood. If one is dragged along without understanding, it does not lead to learning but rather creates comfort.
This was Chung Myung’s favorite method for identifying the enemy and adapting the best strategy to the situation at the scene. Baek Chun also moves like that because he sees and feels things in his own way, but unfortunately Baek Chun and the other Five Swords are not Chung Myung.
This situation occurred when they imitated Chung Myung’s method of wisely finding the flow through various fights with just one head.
It would be better if Baek Chun was careful in his own way. Excessive motivation this time apparently caused problems.
Chung Myung didn’t blame the Five Swords because he understood the whole process.
‘Failure hurts, but… in the end, it’s rewarding.’ – thought Chung Myung
As long as you survive without dying, all experience should be an asset. This failure will become flesh and blood for them.
And it was a failure they sorely needed.
‘In the future, they must lead and fight.’ – thought Chung Myung
Chung Myung’s eyes dimmed a little.
So far, they have been able to fend for themselves. But from now on, the scale of the battle they will face will be even greater. And with Chung Myung gone, there will be more situations where they will lead others and fight.
If they had experienced failure too late, the damage would have been unimaginable, so they were fortunate to be able to experience and reflect on it now.
“Hey, Sasuke.” -said Chung Myung
“Hm?” -said Baek Chun
“Every task must be completed well. This isn’t over yet, right?”-said Chung Myung
“…….”
Baek Chun, who looked at Chung Myung attentively, nodded.
“you are right.” -said Baek Chun
Dan said while looking back at the water fortress. “We have to finish cleaning up.” – said Baek
Chun
He immediately summoned the disciples of Mount Hua.
“First of all, save the commoners trapped in the water fortress. There might be people who become weak, so Soso will immediately take care of their condition.” -said Baek Chun
“Yes, Sasuk!” -said Yoon Jong
“Also, check if there are any missing disciples from the Yuryong Sect here. They might be prisoners. Sang-ah has to interrogate the pirates to check if there are any hostages in other locations.” -said Baek Chun
“Understood, Sahyung.” – said Baek Sang
“Good.” -said Baek Chun
Baek Chun nodded at the quick answer. ‘They did well.’ -Baek Chun thought
They always achieve results beyond their actual skill level. They seemed to be starting to believe that it was all because of their own skills.
They pretend to be humble, but they are not truly humble.
“The biggest mistake is not winning or losing. If
you make mistakes That means not learning anything from those losses and mistakes.” -said Baek Chun
“…….”
“I will reflect on myself first. So, all of you should also remember what you have learned from this matter.” -said Baek Chun
“Yes.”
When Sajae nodded with serious eyes, a faint smile appeared on Baek Chun’s mouth.
“Oh, you’re acting cool.” -said Chung Myung
“…….”
Although it disappeared faster than when it bloomed due to the fierce sound that was heard immediately after.
* * * at another place * * *
“Huuu.”
The Black Haired Ghost, who had long swam to a place where the island was barely visible, walked ashore.
The island they left behind is now barely visible, just a speck.
“Is the battle over?” – said the pirate
One of the followers who came out following him asked while glancing behind him.
“I think so.” – said the pirate
“In that case, the Blue Snake must be dead too.” -said the Black Haired Ghost
The Black Haired Ghost twisted the corners of his mouth and laughed, wiping his drenched face with his sleeve
“I knew he never hesitated until the end.” – said the Black Haired Ghost
“How could he doubt it. Isn’t it true that you gave him the expensive Hundred Thunder Cannons along with a fleet of ships?” – said the pirate
The Hundred Thunder Cannon and the ship. It is regrettable that such items have sunk to the bottom of the river.
But that doesn’t matter. After all, those items weren’t his in the first place.
“I didn’t know it would end like this.” -said the Black Haired Ghost
The Black Haired Ghost clicked his tongue and…
shook his head.
Considering the resources used to create that fortress, it was no different from pouring raw money into the bottom of a river. He couldn’t understand why they would do such a thing with their level of intelligence.
“It doesn’t matter as long as I get paid.” -said the Black Haired Ghost
“Correct.” -said someone mysteriously
After hearing a voice that was not his subordinate’s, the Black Haired Ghost with black hair turned his head quickly. A man was walking out of the
the forest stretches from the river bank.
Black Haired Ghost, who was looking at the man with slightly wary eyes, quietly opened his mouth.
“You don’t need to come out to see me… .” -said the Black Haired Ghost
“It seems like things are going faster than expected, so I came to take a look.” -said someone mysteriously
“Nothing to worry about. We have taken care of it as instructed,” said the Black Haired Ghost
“It seems so.” -said someone mysteriously
The scholar-like man facing the Black Haired Ghost nodded with a cold face.
“Do you need to check?” -said the Black Haired Ghost
“Is it necessary? “-said someone mysteriously
He took something out of his sleeve and held it out to the Black Haired Ghost.
“Here he is.” -said someone mysteriously
Black Haired Ghost carefully received the paper
which the man had handed over and opened it.
“This is a confirmation slip issued by Jungwon Bank. I sent the money to the place you indicated. “If you add up the down payment I gave you yesterday, the amount will definitely match the agreed amount,” said someone mysteriously
“……Already appropriate.” -said the Black Haired Ghost
The nodding Black Haired Ghost folded the paper nicely and tucked it into his chest. .
“You could have just received it directly.” -said someone mysteriously
“You don’t know what will happen in this world, do you? You have no choice but to be careful of everything for a small fish like me. I hope you understand.” -said the Black Haired Ghost
“I can’t say I don’t understand. As you said, one must be careful in everything.” -said someone mysteriously
The man nodded lightly, then continued speaking.
“Then our deal is complete.” -said the Black Haired Ghost
“Yes thank you.” -said someone mysteriously
“Now what are you going to do?” -said someone mysteriously
“As promised, I will wash my hands of this matter and will not set foot in Kangho. I plan to take the money and escape to a far away country, or settle down somewhere decent and live out the rest of my life.”-said the Black Haired Ghost
“Quite persuasive.” -said someone mysteriously
“People won’t believe me when I say something, but that’s good for
make sure.” -said the Black Haired Ghost
“That’s why I chose you.” -said someone mysteriously
A faint smile appeared in the corner of the Black Haired Ghost.
“It’s no big deal to trick those fools, and I feel like I’ve received an excessive amount.” -said the Black Haired Ghost
“It was totally worth it.” -said someone mysteriously
“… May I ask why you did this?” – said the Black Haired Ghost
The man with erudite elegance raised a finger
his index finger to his lips.
“Saggy lips are a problem. There are things in this world that are better left unknown.” -said someone mysteriously
“……I forgot about it. Forgive me.” -said the Black Haired Ghost
“Good. you have worked hard. This is goodbye.” -said someone mysteriously
“Yes. Goodbye…” -said the Black Haired Ghost. That’s when.
Swaeaeaek!
Dozens of short swords rained down through the forest at incredible speed, and were stuck in the necks of people standing on the shore.
“Kkeureuk!”
“Kkeuk! Eye
they glared as they clutched their necks and shook violently before collapsing
.
The Black Haired Ghost stared at his chest with a face
blank. A short sword was buried in his chest, almost to the hilt.
Slowly raising her head, she opened her mouth with a trembling voice as she looked at the man standing in front. about him.
“Why….” -said the Black Haired Ghost
“Didn’t you say so yourself?” -said someone mysteriously
The elegantly knowledgeable man answered in a flat voice.
“It’s better to make sure of everything. But why me
have to leave your mouth?” -said someone mysteriously
“……But, the money is already……” -said the Black Haired Ghost
“That’s a separate matter. Oh, of course, no doubt. Money has been sent. And you don’t have to worry about the family who will come looking for him. I swear
in my name that I will not touch it. Your family will live the rest of their lives in peace.” -said someone mysteriously
“…….”
The Black Haired Ghost fell on the spot. While sitting
kneeling, he breathed heavily.
“Why, why do you have to……” -said the Black Haired Ghost
“This matter is much more important than you think. No one can know. Yes, you can’t. So, the price is your life.” -said someone mysteriously
“…….”
“Get some rest now.” – said someone mysteriously, Buk.
The man spoke in a calm voice as the Black Haired Ghost’s hat collapsed in despair.
“Cut off his head and bury him separately. Throw the body into the river.” -said someone mysteriously
“Yes, General!”
Ho Gamyeong, known by the title General of Myriad Man House, looked at the distant island with a slightly complicated gaze.
“Harvest. Harvesting……” -said Ho Gamyeong
Soon a crooked smile appeared on his thin lips.
“If you sow a seed, you must reap it. Thanks to those Mount Hua people, things will be easier.” – said Ho Gamyeong
Ho Gamyeong turned around without hesitation.
“Let’s go back before we get caught. Faster.” – said Ho Gamyeong
“Yes!”
And so, a few moments passed.
There are no traces left on the clean riverbanks..
Only an indifferent river flows steadily.
