Cheonma Wants to Live Quietly

The districts of Nangin Market were divided from one to ten.

A large vacant lot had been driven by stakes, with only a string connected between them in order to divide the area.

Within each district was a poorly constructed building, where ordinary people resided. There were also civilians who arrived in the mornings but left at night.

The work area was not made up of only Nangin who harbored excellent skills. Each Nangin had its own set of various capabilities.

However, the percentage of talented people was clearly different. Area 1 had the most talented people, whilst Area 10 had the least.

Byeok Tae-san’s attention, however, was focused on six particular areas.

All the guys there were pretty good guys. However, it was not because of their talent that Byeok Tae-san found himself paying attention to them.

It was because they were really good at hiding their skills.

Tae-san could bet that the ordinary people living here in Nangin, as well as the civilians who came to and from the area, would never know that the Nangin in the Yuk District possessed such skills.

Considering the fact that people from prestigious families were among those who used the nangin, this was really a great thing to behold.

Above all, it seemed that even the macho ginseng who was guiding Tae-san did not fully understand their skills.

Unsurprisingly, the ginseng passed through the sixth section. The place he ended up choosing was a work area.

“Here it is, Confucius,” Ma Chungsam said with an expression of both wariness and nervousness. However, he also looked eager.

It was normal to worry about what they were looking for was here or not. However, they couldn’t say that it wasn’t right off the bat. Tae-san shook his head.

With this, the devil’s eyes fluttered violently.

Tae-san grinned. “You still caught a frog on the hind leg of a cow, huh.”

With this being said, he turned and began to head back to the sixth section. Ma Chungsam hurriedly followed right after him.

Those who were in charge of receiving guests in one area were wrinkled when they came out to meet Ma Chungsam and Byeok Tae-san.

“Why are there so many people looking around these days?”

“Perhaps they have their own businesses to attend to?”

“No, but why are there so many customers in Yukgu?”

“These days, rumors have spread that the six children have been doing well. Did you not know this?”

“What? Is this your first time hearing about this?”

“I knew about the rumors circling around. They’ve been speculating as to whether or not they took any medicine.”

“What? Is there something I don’t know? You guys were always known for being lazy.”

“Hey, I’ll have you know that I work very hard on my orders.”

“It smells.”

“What does?”

“It’s the familiar scent of money. Hey, take a look behind the meatballs. There’s obviously something in them.”

“Huh?”

“My senses are telling me this. Don’t you know I’m being nice?”

The man who had spoken to him nodded in a sullen manner.

“Ah, yes, then… let’s see.”

Even with such empty words, I couldn’t help but admit that this was good.

He had already been instructed, anyway, so he had no choice but to move. He cautiously and quietly walked towards the sixth section.

At this point, I felt like I had to listen in to what was being said inside.

Byeok Tae-san, who entered the six-zone, began to look around.

Unlike other districts, the number of people outside the building was very small compared to the rest of the six districts.

They looked at Byeok Tae-san for a moment as they entered, then proceeded to turn away.

All the nerds here were like that.

After all, they didn’t take the quest on their own, but the district manager had taken the quest and gave it to them on their own.

If he had received the quest without knowing it, then it could have disappeared. They had just been doing the same thing as the others.

However, Byeok Tae-san knew something was different.

They had just measured Tae-san. He didn’t know if he got the results right.

However, Tae-san turned his head and looked at the macho ginseng that was busy rushing after him.

“Why are you doing this, Confucius?” Ma Chungsam asked when Tae-san’s gaze fell on him. He then asked if there was anything else he could do.

Tae-san shook his head. “No.”

It meant that this was something so secretive that even the ginseng wouldn’t be able to notice.

However, Byeok Tae-san seemed unable to accept the result that he had gotten. “We still have a long way to go.”

He never meant to let it stay on that level. The ginseng would cross the wall sooner or later.

‘Because I’ll make it happen myself if I have to.’

Of course, one may experience death several times in return, but if you could still overcome the wall, then wouldn’t Ma Chungsam be happy?

Once again, Tae-san felt as if he had truly become a good person. With this, he walked towards the building whilst wearing a happy expression.

Inside, he saw a fairly large number of Nangin. He didn’t know for sure because he hadn’t been into any other buildings, but he thought that the rest would be similar to this one.

There were only half of those who did not seem to have mastered martial arts yet.

Of course, Byeok Tae-san was only hiding his martial arts from the public.

He was only showing the right level, and his control ability was really exquisite.

Tae-san could feel a gaze focused on him.

It was from the man who seemed to be the district manager. He was sitting at the farthest point from the entrance, and he had a very refined and restrained energy that was not at all what a rogue should have.

This was only natural. Because he was not a rogue, he became the leader of the Heavenly Order.

Byeok Tae-san glanced at the people inside. Among them, he had to sort the non-heavenly from the heavenly.

Basically, each of the group of the Temple of Heaven consisted of one leader as well as twenty members. This was deemed as the first set of basics, and the composition changed flexibly according to the situation at hand,

And so, in the case of Cheon Chushinui, there were twelve crew members per captain.

Right now, there were more than 30 people who stood out to Tae-san. However, pairing this up with the atmosphere, there seemed to be even more. It was clear that there were quite a few people who went to carry out their missions.

‘There are only five non-heavenly people here.’

It was either they were also carrying out their missions, or they were not aware that they had hired non-heavenly nangmen.

With this, Tae-san went inside and stood in front of the head of the district.

The head of the district then sat down on the stairs in response, looking up at him with his head and eyes tilted slightly upwards.

“If you’re here for a quest, go to that guy over there.” He jutted his chin out to the man who had fallen a little ways away.

The designated man got up from his seat and approached Byeok Tae-san. “You can make a request to me. Shall we head over there?”

Byeok Tae-san listened to him before replying. “I want the two of us to talk in private, so can we go in for a moment?”

The commander’s eyes twitched at this. However, that did not last for long.

“I have something to tell you, something about Hyeon-wol.”

As soon as I said this, the district head’s expression shifted. He jumped up and spoke to Tae-san with a more respectful posture.

“Drink inside. I’ll greet you there.”

Byeok Tae-san nodded and promptly followed him inside.

Once Tae-san was seated at the top, the head district stood in front of him and bowed his head politely.

“Yuk Tae-gu greets Confucius.”

“How many people are down there?”

“Around fifty people.”

Byeok Tae-san’s eyes gleamed at this. “That’s a lot.”

“Most of them mainly collect, infiltrate, and manipulate information.”

It did seem that way. This was because they were very good at hiding their power.

“I have a few things to do.”

“Just give me the orders.”

“Take over the Nangin Market.”

“Yes, that can be done right away.”

Tae-san knew he had to lay out the basic foundation in case something were to happen. He didn’t know about the heads of each district, but it had been a long time since many of the talented nangs below them had been handed over to Yuk Tae-gu.

After he said this, Tae-san called Ma Chungsam, allowing him to enter the room.

“Come in.”

As the man carefully entered, Tae-san turned to Tae-gu.

“He is from Dongho Pyo Guk.”

“Ah… a fellowship mark… after all, that was where we belonged.”

“You knew?”

“I was just guessing.”

“It’s good that you know, anyway. Make sure the two of you work well together.”

With this, Yuk Tae-gu and Ma Chungsam bowed their heads at the same time. Once they were told, they would have to do it.

Yuk Tae-gu then opened his mouth to ask, all whilst looking at Tae-san cautiously. “But… how did you know us? We’re different from the other groups, so few people are aware.”

Byeok Tae-san laughed bitterly. “Who knows who?”

“As far as I know, Wolyeong Danju is the only one.”

The Wolyeongdan was an organization that managed information in the Cheonma Shinkyo. It was a place superior to any other information organization in the world.

Although Bicheondan was not under Wolyeongdan, there were other groups that belonged to the organization. In addition, Bicheondan had an obligation to actively respond in cooperating with Wolyeongdan.

Among them, Tae-gu was special.

This was because he was a direct commander of the Wolyeongdanju.

That was why he felt curious. How the hell did Tae-san know his true identity?

To Tae-gu, this meant Byeok Tae-san was a person of high authority. He did not only mention the current month, but he also phrased it in a different way.

This was just a simple question-and-answer procedure, but one must go through it to use the Temple of Heaven. If one wanted to use Tae-gu’s group, they needed to be able to answer a different question from the other non-heavenly churches.

However, Tae-san was not blocked by any questions.

Even if it was almost Wolyeong Danju, this was a believable feat.

However, Byeok Tae-san had never been part of Wolyeongdanju. Yuk Tae-gu knew this very well, because he had met him in person a few times.

Tae-san then continued to stare at Yuk Tae-gu.

In fact, there was no need for him to answer this question. Even if it were to pass, Yuk Tae-gu would still carry out Byeok Tae-san’s instructions.

With this, Tae-san gave a simple answer.

“Just…”

“Yes?”

“I just found out.”

Tae-gu looked blankly at Tae-san. How the hell was he supposed to take that answer?

After a moment, the man came to his senses and bowed slightly. “Yes, okay. Then, I’ll start doing what you ordered.”

Byeok Tae-san simply nodded and got up from his seat. His work here was over.

Just before he left the room, however, Tae-san turned back to Tae-gu. “Oh, and are there any other kids you found other than Dongho Pyo Guk?”

Yuk Tae-gu bowed his head and answered, “There are, but that is not certain.”

“That’s okay, pass the information to him,” Tae-san pointed to the ginseng standing in one corner.

Yuk Tae-gu glanced at Chungsam briefly before he bowed to Tae-san once more. “Yes, okay.”

With that, he watched Tae-san leave, immersed in his thoughts.

‘Did he just know? But how? It didn’t even seem like he knew we were here in the first place…’

Yuk Tae-gu felt as if something ridiculous had just happened, but at the same time, he knew there was something different about this.

‘Huh… Is this what this is?’

There were several anecdotes about the Cheonma, which had been floating around like a legend long ago within the Chonma Shingyo. Tae-gu felt as if what he had experienced was something very similar.

Yuk Tae-gu swallowed as he continued to watch the other man leave. This was indeed very confusing.

Seo Do-gun was staying in the largest gaekzan in Wuhan.

He was using the largest and most expensive patronage in the guest cup, and dozens of samurai were scattered around the room where he was staying, all standing guard.

All of them were excellent masters, but they were all of Go Jun-gwang, not Seo Do-gun.

Meanwhile, Seodo’s men were on their way to Wuhan.

There were only a few dozen people, so it was not easy to do something with them alone. In particular, since the current infinite situation was a complicated version of Moorimmaeng, Heukryeon, Namgungse, and Zhugeulse, Go Jun-gwang’s subordinates and Seo Do-gun’s subordinates could easily be wiped out.

And so, Seo Do-gun had no intention of letting his subordinates ever enter Wuhan.

He was planning to use it in such a way that he could easily put it in when he needed it, solve only the essentials, and then proceed to get lost. Because of this, they had no choice but to use Do-gun’s subordinates for the usual work.

The subordinates between the two were clearly different. First off, Go Jun-kwang’s subordinates were bigger in number. However, each individual on Seo Do-kun’s side was far stronger.

Currently, Seo Do-kun was sitting at a table with some simple dishes. He was drinking.

In front of him sat the man who was in charge of the infinite number of affairs here. Do-kun’s gaze was greedy.

After all, whenever an opportunity presented itself to him, he made sure to grab onto it. He was such a covetous man.

“Cheon Geum-ryeon made contact with Moorimmaeng, Heukryeon, Namgungse, and Zhuge.”

At this, Do-kun smirked. “Huh, he’s definitely talented.” His gaze had that familiar greedy expression.

Cheon Geum-ryeon couldn’t possibly have done that. It was past his ability to be able to contact all four of them.

“Now we have to move slowly. We turned our gaze slightly, so let’s go find ours. I also have to get my bonus with both.”

At this, the man’s eyes lit up.

“Are you hitting the back of those who united the Black Swords?”

“The more people, the better, right?”

The man looked straight at Seo Do-kun. Do-kun simply enjoyed his gaze and continued. “I heard that the Nangin market in Wuhan is quite large? If I catch ten, can I eat them easily?”

“Sure.”

“Then eat it all at once. I’ll head to the Black Sword’s side, so can you go to the Nangin market? Can you do this?”

“Of course.”

As the man bowed, Seo Do-gun looked at him with a satisfied expression.

There was blood in those greedy eyes.
