Chapter 124 (1/2)

“Can we be comfortable like this?”

Hearing the words of Cheon Chushinui, the monster put his finger to his mouth. “Be quiet. If you change your mind while talking nonsense, you will surely die.”

“Brother, why do you keep saying such cruel things? Stop killing people.”

“It’s not that I’m killing you, it’s that other people are killing you. Do you think everyone will be quiet?”

Cheon Chushinui looked around him secretly. Everyone nearby was staring at him.

“Hmmm. What do you mean?” Cheon Chushinui muttered so and turned his gaze away. Now they were traveling by boat.

Byeok Tae-san instructed them to use a boat when returning to Wuhan from Uichang. Because he had a lot of money, he was able to get a big and good boat, and everyone was comfortably returning to Wuhan. As the number of people increased, it was natural for the ship to grow bigger. Sailors were not saved.

Anyway, it was going so comfortably, but the anxiety didn’t go away. Everyone could remember how hard it was to go from Wuhan to Uichang, so even now, no matter when the situation was to change, there was nothing strange about it. Moreover, he couldn’t be vigilant because he had really hard training in Uichang.

“Anyway, enjoy this time to the fullest. When we get to Wuhan, what do you think we will do there?” Cheon Chushinui’s face suddenly contorted at the words of the invasion.

“Ai, brother. Why do you have to ruin a good mood like that?”

“It means to calm down.” As the two were chatting on the deck like that, Byeok Tae-san came out of the cabin. As soon as Byeok Tae-san appeared, Ok Hwa moved closer to the side.

“Where is this?”

Ok Hwa immediately answered Byeok Tae-san’s question. “I am passing near Hongho. You can think of it as a little over two hundred li left to infinity.”

In response to Ok Hwa’s answer, Byeok Tae-san nodded. “Two hundred lira… It’s just right.”

There was an ominous look on the faces of everyone who heard those words. They looked at Byeok Tae-san’s mouth with hopeless eyes. Tae-san looked around the people on the deck with the calmest eyes.

“From here on, we leave the boat.”

“Yes?”

“Abandon the boat and move along the water.”

Cheon Chushinui asked with an awkward smile as if it was nonsense. “Stand, please… Are you telling me to swim from here to infinity?”

“That’s your freedom. Whether you swim, go down to the river bed and walk, or run over the water.”

Everyone stared blankly at him. Now, wasn’t that saying to swim to infinity? Who could jump on the water here?

“Don’t worry, I won’t die.”

Everyone said to themselves. He didn’t think anyone here cared about it. He just filled his head with the thought that it would be hard enough that he would rather die.

Everyone’s eyes were focused on Cheon Chushinui. Wasn’t the timing of Byeok Tae-san’s appearance too cunning? It was not really like that, but somehow it felt like something like this happened because of Cheon Chushinui.

“How long do you want to be ignorant?”

When Byeok Tae-san’s cold words fell, everyone hurriedly jumped into the water. He then waited on the deck until all the people on the boat jumped off. And, when everyone jumped off, he went to the end of the player and stood there. He could see people floating on the water. Everyone was swimming hard and moving forward.

“It’s slow. That’s where you can’t practice.”

Saying that, Byeok Tae-san poked his stomach with his foot.

Dumpling! Dumpling! The wave that started in the bow spread throughout the ship. Then all the seams of the ship started to come apart.

Soon, the ship shattered and scattered on the water. Tae-san walked slowly through the wreckage of the ship. This leisurely walk on water was much more difficult than running through it. However, he did it casually and followed the group.

Byeok Tae-san spoke closely to those who moved behind the most. “Those who fall behind me should be prepared.”

Tae-san’s voice penetrated into everyone’s ears on the water as if carved into them. Everyone turned their heads and looked at the place where he was, looking astonished.

And, when Byeok Tae-san started walking, he was even more surprised. Those at the back played more diligently on their limbs. They went straight ahead. He swam with all the power he had been drinking. Byeok Tae-san followed them and walked again. Everyone had to swim faster.

‘I have to do it somehow.’ Everyone clenched their teeth.

Tae-san’s lips curled up slightly. ‘What… You will naturally become stronger after going through the hurdles of dying a few times.’

Everyone was indeed like that. He was like that, and like most of the people who practiced at Cheonma Shintokyo were like that.

Bang Du-Rip, the master of the Thousand Swords Dan of the Moorimmaeng, made an absurd expression on the report of incessant caution.

“What happened? Are you moving?”

“Yes. So, I was informed that I would not need the help of the Moorim League in the future.”

“Who do you like?”

“Yes? Well, the contract was…”

“I remember that Cheon Yakbang had a lot of debt, but are the debt collectors still?”

“I paid off everything.”

“What? Did you pay it all off? Where do these niggas get all the money? Did you check correctly?”

“Sure. This is the story I heard from the top of the month. Things went awry.”

At this, Bang Du-Rip’s expression contorted. If the top of this month said so, it was for certain.

“How the hell did they manage to get things to this point? Did you have anything else to say?”

“Yes. Once we found out that the migration area was infinite.”

“Did you find anyone who gave them money?”

“It is said that the investigation is under way at the top of this month. He said that the investigation would be completed soon, so soon….”

The constant lord could not finish his speech. It was popular outside.

“Sir, I’m the seven captain.”

Chiljojang, like Bangdurib and Budanju, was a person who entered deeply into this work. “come in.” After receiving Bang Du-lip’s permission, the Chil-jang entered. As soon as he came in, he saw it right away.

“I got a call from the top of this month. It is said that he found a man who paid off a debt of a thousand pharmacies.”

“Okay? What kind of guy are you?”

“This is a person named Tae-san.”

“Byeok Tae-san?”
