306 Chapter 97 The Man Caught in Mt. Jang Baek (1) (1/2)
A stagnant encampment surrounded by three-sided mountain ranges.
After the war, I was in this place filled with countless corpses and the smell of blood.
Even though only those who had died in this war had surpassed 2800.
All but the six crests of each wave died, rolling on the floor in cold corpses.
“Ugh… ugh…”
There was a woman who wept over the dead bodies of such disciples.
This beautiful woman, who was reminded in red and did not stop crying because her eyes were puffy, was Je Gal So-hee, the second soldier of the limp.
“I'm sorry. I'm so sorry. ”
She mutters elongated words, looking at the dead bodies.
Why do you keep saying you're sorry, even though the same Muslim people might have mourned that they died?
There were two people looking down at her from the hill.
The old man with the short white beard was a thousand, the former Buddhist monk of Mahidol.
And the young man who watches the outcome of the battlefield with his long hair next to him is a thousand years old, the current Catholic Church master.
“Thank you for respecting your grandfather's wishes. ”
He looked at the disciples who were evacuating from the mountain in a helpless line.
They were the only survivors of this war.
The most survivors of the sects were Shaolin monks, most of whom were safe and sound, except for a few.
“You've seen more blood than I thought. No matter how close you get, you don't want to be humiliated unless you're unmanned. ”
You look at the bodies around you as if you were sorry.
They were more than six hundred sects who refused to take the poison and died in the struggle.
Among them, the Bible of Jeong Yu-myun, who vomited anger until the end, was included.
Among the cultivators who wanted to surrender and lay down their lives, many were forced to give up their pride because of the remaining food brushes.
That's why I didn't want to eat the lyrics and catch the crutches.
“Choices are their own. ”
There was no reason to release even those who did not eat the poison.
When he first found out that they were ambushing him and his spirit mates, he tried to exterminate them all, regardless of the number.
However, they unexpectedly changed their plans.
Two days ago,
Jegalso-hee, who came to the barracks with the leaders of the bridge, knelt on his knees.
She wept and begged the disciples to live.
If fate had been a true believer, he might have thought about reducing the useless sacrifice, but he had no mercy on his enemies.
[You, prisoner, do not interfere. Get out.]
Despite a thousand warnings, she does not bend to her will.
He falls flat on the ground and says,
[I know you're angry, of course, but most of them, regardless of their will, are drawn to the battlefield by their leaders.]
She shouted as if the Six Elders had no justification for such claims.
[The Pope has allowed me to roam freely despite being a prisoner, but now I forget who I am. Hey, arrest this bitch and have her arrested.]
The Christians rushed in and shouted as they tried to ambush her.
[Please! Listen to me! If the Catholic Church is gracious to us, we will divide them and make them surrender without great sacrifice.]
In Jegal Sohee's words, there were two thousand eyes.
She offered to give us a plan for the Church.
[I won't ask you to save them all. Please spare those who surrender. I'm begging the Catholic Church for my life.]
She knows well that he has no mercy on his enemies, thanks to her long observation.
As an alternative, I wanted to prevent even the greatest sacrifice.
You're gonna make me surrender?]
A thousand women who did not trust but were interested stopped ambushing.
It was for the first time.
That way, she showed me some clever tricks that could be divided between the leaders of the Muslim blind and the common people.
The leaders in the barracks who heard this were amazed.
If you do what she says, the factions will surely divide.
Not a bad offer.
However,
[Interesting plan. Even those who surrender in that way and survive, it is still the same.]
I calmly refused.
Those who ask for their lives will eventually forget it and burn their vengeance.
She had no intention of leaving behind such tribulation.
[Princess Chun!]
[Take him!]
Je Gal So-hee, who had come to beg for hope of work, had to be dragged out of the barracks in despair.
At that time, an unexpected figure stood up and asked her to reconsider.
He was a former Catholic.
I told Thousand Wolves outside the barracks if they had asked me to speak to them privately.
[This grandfather wishes to reconsider the words of the child of the Zegals.]
[..... Even so, many times I lost the opportunity that I gave him. No more mercy is meaningless.]
It was not worth reconsidering, no matter how many grandchildren he had.
Despite the fact that he was behind the scenes several times because of the strong force called Extreme Butterfly Gate, it was a thousand luck that gave him an opportunity at the right line.
However, it was meaningless until now, with enough power.
In the beginning, they camped near Mt. Jangbaek with a large force to exterminate themselves and the bayonets.
[I know what you mean, but some of them did not come of their own free will, as the child of the Zegals said. Besides…]
It was a time when there were monks from Shaolin.
I didn't want to wipe them all out thinking about Shaolin's former head of household ambassador.
However, the decision was solely with the Pope, Thousand Woman.
You won't break your stubbornness easily. This place has changed the way.
[There's something your grandfather would like to say. Is there a will in the whole of Murim?]
[........]
The silence expressing positivity continued.
[Then I want to tell you that killing all enemies is not the only way. If you try to rule everything by the river, you will have to continue to experience misery.]
I wasn't wrong.
It is said to leave Jeongsaema and run away from the penalty bees because of the monarch.
[Killing all enemies cannot be united. It's the only way to rule them all.]
At that, I nodded my head boldly.
I knew exactly what my granddaughter Cheonji was telling me.
He also had no intention of losing by killing his enemies unconditionally.
He was willing to give himself a few chances and let him pay the price if he wanted to.
But to tell a story in a circle like this,
‘It must be because of my relationship with Eungyeom's colleague, the media ambassador. ’
Probably because he wants to show mercy to the monks of Shaolin.
However, if only the monks of Shaolin were saved after killing all the others, they might be embarrassed inside the sect, so they would be encouraged to choose the strategy of Jegalsohee.
[Phew..... Got it. With your grandfather's advice, I will show them mercy.]
She was unable to read her grandfather's hidden intentions and decided to accept it.
It was to save his face.
[..... Thank you.]
[But I have to add one to her scheme.]
That was to impose sanctions through the judiciary.
The original plan of Jegal Sohee ends with sending the surrendered back to the faction in an orderly fashion.
However, it was not so clumsy.
You've made the survivors pay by imposing sanctions to prevent them from playing tricks to the end.
This was a kind of warning against blindness.
Since over 2,000 surviving sects took the lyrics, they will not be able to dream of revenge.
After a vision, the garrison was cleared.
I've been gathering the dead in one place and incinerating them, but this won't take long either.
“Are you heading to Mt. Changbaek now? ”
I nodded at the question of the Catholic Church.
After resolving the power of the blind to take the fishery, it was time to head to Mt. Jang Baek.
Before the Extreme Meat Gate, you must get the Pearl White Lagoon's advance.
