◈ Pursuit (2)
“The five of you have better martial arts skills than most bandits, so wouldn’t it be okay for you to leave us here and hide your identity with makeup and get out of here?”
Baek Ga-hwan, who was worried about being a burden to Mu-jin and his party while they were being chased by Nok-rim, thought that leaving them out at this point would be helping them.
But Mujin rejected his offer.
“That is dangerous. They have dragged in several places to capture us, and even in the past few days, the number of bandits who have fallen at our hands has exceeded three digits. “If we sneak out, they will definitely come here to track down our whereabouts.”
If those guys had been tracking their movements properly, they would have easily found information that they stopped by Socheongmun Gate.
And since they knew that they had many children and women with them, it would not be difficult to find out the appearances of the women and children through the people in the Xiaoqingmun area.
“If we had planned to leave the children and women here so that we could escape alive, we would not have come here together in the first place.”
The other party members also expressed their agreement with Mujin’s bold words.
“Hmm. of course!”
“Mujin is nice! right. “Lingling?”
“Ukki Ukki!”
“How could I sacrifice those of you who have not even learned martial arts in order to save my life? “Infinite Buddha.”
Baek Ga-hwan had no choice but to keep his mouth shut as Cheongsu Dojang, who had suddenly changed from Geomchi to a serious man around the time he fell into a psychotic state, started talking more.
I was also moved by their willingness to take responsibility for themselves until the end.
‘You have to think of a way.’
This was because they had to think of a way to somehow help those who were trying to take responsibility for them.
‘Let’s get out together, but we’re in the way.’
There is only one in five of Mujin’s group, and the people they have to protect are a whopping twenty, including Baek Ga-hwan himself.
To be honest, until now, the bandits were only of a low level and could only be dealt with. If the experts showed up like Mujin said, it would be difficult to fight properly.
However, Mujin and his party wanted all the children and women to escape.
‘The number is twenty-five. There is even a way for these people, most of whom are children and women, to sneak out… … .’
Baek Ga-hwan, who was alone and worried because there was no way to wake up, unconsciously looked at his younger sister in his arms.
For Baek Ga-hwan, his younger sister was his only remaining family member and the smartest child in the world.
So, I thought that her younger sister might have thought of some trick this time, but for some reason, she kept her mouth tightly shut.
However, since they had been living together for fifteen years, Baek Ga-hwan was able to notice it without difficulty.
It wasn’t that Baek Ga-ryeong couldn’t think of a plan. She had a plan in mind, but she just couldn’t put it into words.
So what is the plan that my younger sister has not spoken about? What kind of plan has she come up with that makes her unable to speak?
‘Garyeong is a child who knows what shame is. The reason why that child cannot speak freely is because it is a ploy to be a burden to his benefactors.’
“ah!”
Baek Ga-hwan, whose thoughts went that far, was soon able to deduce what Baek Ga-ryeong’s plan was.
“… … .”
Baek Ga-hwan, who realized that the number would inevitably be a burden to Mujin and his party, had no choice but to keep his mouth shut, just like Baek Ga-ryeong.
However, Mujin did not miss Baek Ga-hwan’s exclamation.
“Do you have any plans in mind?”
“… … no.”
“I don’t know why you’re hiding it, but please tell me your opinion first, even if it’s not a good one. As various plans emerge, wouldn’t it be possible to combine them and come up with a better plan?”
“actually… … “There is a plan that has come to mind, but it is a plan that will inevitably place a great burden on you.”
“ha ha ha. If that’s the case, feel free to say it. Even if Confucius Baek comes up with a plan, isn’t there a law that tells you to take that path? “We will make the decision, so please feel free to tell us.”
When Mu-jin spoke softly as if admonishing him, Baek Ga-hwan, who thought for a moment, cautiously opened his mouth.

A low mountain overlooking Gilan-hyeon.
There, countless men wearing various animal skins were gathered there.
They were Green Foresters who gathered under the orders of the general vote-breaker to catch those who dared to sell their name.
However, if bandits, one of the professions chosen by anti-social people, were gathered like this in the first place, there was bound to be trouble.
However, for some reason, all the bandits gathered on that low mountain maintained a cautious attitude.
That’s right, there were dangerous men here that most Green Foresters found difficult to utter a single word to.
A middle-aged man sitting alone on a rock in the center of the group seemed to be the leader of hundreds of bandits gathered here.
Then, a path opened between the group of bandits surrounding the man, and a new middle-aged man appeared.
A man wearing a sword on his side and a bow behind his back, which is rare in martial arts, spoke to a bulky man sitting on a rock with scars all over his face.
“It’s been a while. “Chuck.”
“You’re late. “Noseo (老鼠).”
“… … “I guess you’ve already forgotten what happened to all the people who called me that?”
Noseo (老鼠).
It was a nickname meaning old rat. This was partly because the face of the man using the bow resembled a rat, but it was also a nickname used to disparage the fact that martial arts people used bows in a mean manner.
However, most of the comments made by those who called the man Noseo were not good.
He was the second strongest mountain vegetable stockholder in the huge land mass called Gangseo Province.
However, despite Noseo’s murderous gaze, the man called Cheok did not even snort.
He just pulled his lips up in a sly manner, and the movement felt strange thanks to the scars covering his face.
“so? Are you planning to use this opportunity to make an arrow hole in my head as well?”
At the tone of saying that if you want to try it at any time, try it, the man called Noseo spat out phlegm and opened his mouth.
“It’s okay. “There is an order from Mr. Chongpyo, so I will exercise self-respect for the time being.”
The man called Chuck sneered at Noseo’s lame excuse.
He is the son-in-law of Noklim and the owner of the strongest mountain vegetables in Gangseo Province, who can be said to be the commander-in-chief who understands the order of the general repatriation. The owner of Jeonggangsanchae (井崗山寨). It was Cheok Gwang (拓狂).
Noh Seo asked, trying to ignore Cheok Gwang’s gaze that was looking at her as if laughing.
“So, where are they now?”

“Why are we gathered here?”
“Did you go into hiding in Gilan County?”
When Cheokgwang shook his head in response to Noseo’s question, Nossa asked back.
“What do you plan to do? “I believe that you are not planning to attack Gilan County ignorantly.”
“First, we watch. And if they don’t come out by night, then we have to sneak in and pick off the branches.”
In response to Cheok Gwang’s answer, Nosa thought to himself, ‘Anyway, you ignorant bastard’ and turned around.
“Then we have to watch until night, so I’ll wait over there with my kids.”
Even after Noseo retreated, Cheokgwang spent his time just sitting on the rock without saying anything.
While glaring endlessly at Gil An-hyeon, where the target is hiding.
As time passed, the sky began to turn scarlet.
“Let’s go.”
Cheok-gwang, who had been glaring at Gil An-hyeon in silence, stood up.
This was because he saw in his eyes the sight of their carriage leaving Gilanhyeon.
* * *
Whether you’re running away or fighting, if you don’t sleep or eat enough, your strength will drop and you won’t be able to show off your skills.
Mujin and his group fell asleep at a musculoskeletal treatment clinic after just two o’clock. After finishing an early dinner, we boarded the carriage and left Gilanhyeon.
They even rode the same carriage as when they first entered Gilan County, wore similar uniforms, and left Gilan County.
It was as if he had no intention of sneaking out by hiding his identity in the first place.
It must have been about a day or so since I left Gilan-hyeon while driving a carriage.
As if it was natural, a group of bandits were waiting for them, blocking the gateway.
And then I saw countless bandits running from both left and right sides.
“Ignore it and run!!”
Mujin, who shouted like that, used his past experience of training Baekbo Shinjeon and fired a fist at the bandit blocking the road.
Following Mujin, Cheongsu Dojang, Mugyeong, and Mugung also attacked the bandits using swords and long poles.
However, perhaps because the carriage was too heavy, the horses could not run very fast, and naturally the number of bandits approaching the carriage increased.
In the end, Mujin and his party entrusted Baek Ga-hwan and the young man they had rescued from Heuksi to drive two wagons, and rushed towards the bandits.
Kwasik!!
Suddenly.
Naturally, the number of people who died due to Mujin’s group’s martial arts skills was rapidly increasing.
As dozens of people fell in an instant, those approaching Mujin and the others began to hesitate.
“You idiots! “Isn’t your life worth it!!”
Mujin seemed to see this as an opportunity and shouted as if threatening them, but another shout was heard from afar.
“Kill it!!”
“To those who catch those guys, Mr. Chongpyo promised a big treasure!!”
“No matter how expert you are, if you get hit by a single stab, you’ll fall over!”
Perhaps because they were bandits, those who seemed scared at first turned around as soon as they heard about the money and rushed at them again.
“Tsk.”
Mujin clucked his tongue as if he was disappointed and once again used his arms and legs to crush the heads and bodies of the approaching bandits.
Meanwhile, Mujin took the opportunity to launch himself into the air.
Part of it was to avoid being surrounded by bandits, but it was more important to have a wide view of the battlefield.
When I checked the battlefield from the air, I saw bandits flocking towards this place from all directions.
Not only were there guys approaching from nearby, but there were bandits coming towards us from so far away that you had to strengthen your eyes with your inner strength to see them.
‘As expected, Gil An-hyeon was being watched from all directions!’
The direction they left Gilan County was north.
Naturally, the bandits located to the east, west, and south were also belatedly joining the group.
Then, of course, we had to get out of here before the bandits approaching from the east, west, or south joined us, but the problem was the speed of the carriage.
Although it was moving forward in its own way, the speed was at most that of an ordinary person running hard.
It was a speed that anyone who had learned light attack could easily chase, and the distance to those who had started chasing from afar was getting closer.
Meanwhile, the bandits who were originally nearby were also forming a thick wall and putting pressure on Mujin and the others.
‘little bit more!’
Although they only fought for a little more than a little while, the number of bandits that Mujin and his party had defeated had already exceeded three digits.
In the meantime, there seemed to be some people with exceptional skills mixed in, and small wounds were gradually accumulating on the bodies of the group members.
And once again, about 10 minutes had passed.
“Make a way!!!”
A shout filled with enormous energy erupted from behind.
Mujin, who soared into the air to check the situation on the battlefield, was able to notice that the person yelling was the leader.
At the same time as the man with a face full of scars was shouting, the bandits who were running in a disorderly manner were quickly pushing each other left and right to clear the way.
Sigh.
The guy gave a strangely distorted smile due to his scar and threw something at Mujin, who was soaring into the air.
The weapon that escaped the guy’s hand flew towards Mujin at explosive speed, and Mujin, who was floating in the air, hit the weapon fired by the guy, but was thrown back in the air by the repulsion force.
‘Crazy guy. ‘I can’t believe you threw something like this.’
The memorization that he threw was a hatchet, which is a ridiculous thing to even call a memorization.
Mujin, who struggled to regain his balance by moving his body in the air, landed on the ground, crushing the head of the bandit at the point of fall, and quickly shouted.
“Mugung! “Start!”
As soon as Mujin’s instructions were given, energy waves began to rush around Mugung’s body.
Mugung, who had amplified his enormous internal power by channeling it into the White Sea, stretched out his palm, but the direction was not behind where the leader was approaching.
Rather, the Tathagata Goddess, who gave his utmost effort, appeared in front of the front where Mujin and his party were fleeing.
As a flame larger than that of a man of considerable size spewed out, the bandits blocking the front line fell like leaves in an autumn wind.
“Hey!!”
At that moment, Baek Ga-hwan and the young man driving the carriage accelerated.
Then, surprisingly, the carriage, which had been running slowly until now, gained momentum.
In an instant, the carriage increased its speed and ran towards the road cleared by Mugung, and Mujin and his party expanded the road, guarding the sides and front so that the bandits could not block the road again.
“You can’t miss it!!”
“Shoot!! “Aim for the carriage!!”
Some of the bandits became impatient and threw away the weapons they were carrying or started shooting arrows.
Kwasik!!
However, Mujin and his party seemed to have no intention of protecting the women or children in the carriage.
They only have their own bodies, Baek Ga-hwan and the young man driving the carriage. And they only had to guard the horses pulling the carriage.
This was natural.
To begin with, there were no women or children in the carriage.
A plan that Baek Ga-hwan and Baek Ga-ryeong came up with. A way to safely take away the children and women, while not interfering with the Mujin group’s battle.
It was the precepts of Seongdonggyeokseo (聲東擊西).
