How To Live as a Civil Servant in Murim

The subordinates under Dong Ja-hong did not say anything and quietly lay down. It was because he knew very well that if he made a useless excuse at this time, his throat could fly off.

However, it seemed that the new nang had a different idea.

“Dongdaein! The decrease in hermits now is because the workers are playing tricks. If you give them more scares so they don’t trick you…”

hooked!

Before he could finish his words, the jade face sword pulled out his sword and stabbed the man in the neck. Nangin groaned and fell down.

“If you knew, you should have done it before it diminished.

A cold fear settled in the seat. Murim people only rolled their eyes.

It’s been quite a while since they occupied the mines around here, but they still haven’t been able to collect as much silver as they aimed for.

There were several reasons.

All the veins in the shallows were mined, and the menaced workers rushed and had an accident, and if new workers were brought in, the truth could leak out for no reason, so we squeezed out only the people we had…

But the biggest reason was that there was too much silver.

‘Can’t we just finish here?’

‘What I have already collected is enough. If I just share, I’ll live on for the rest of my life.’

Originally, even if it was a group of Sapa or Dark Swordsmen, it was difficult to maintain the organization properly if they arbitrarily stabbed and killed subordinates like this.

I could die tomorrow, but I would try to run away. Even if Jade Face Sword was a notorious Murim man in Sapa Murim, he could not stop it.

The reason why the Murim people gathered here did not run away was because of greed.

Didn’t he endure under the jade face knife for a long time and collect all the silver in the mine?

I didn’t know that if I didn’t receive this distribution, I would become a ghost even after death. This silver was the reason why the Murim people endured here.

Okmyeonsalgeom read dissatisfaction in the eyes of his subordinates.

“You seem to be dissatisfied. tell me where ruler!”

“Oh, no.”

“hurry! If you don’t tell me, I’ll drill a hole in you from the bottom to the top!”

The terrified nerd looked up and sighed.

“Catch, since there are many hermits that have been dug up, wouldn’t it be nice if only these teeth disappeared? Hyun-ryeong has something he did, so he won’t be able to tell the outside world… I’m afraid that things will go wrong if I stay too long.”

“…..”

The jade face flesh sword twitched at the words of his subordinate.

The nangin people here didn’t know the real purpose of the jade face knife. It was only natural, as all of them were burglars or hostages who gathered under the Jade Face Sword.

The elder of the religion served by Okmyeon Salgeom was never satisfied with such a hermit. In order to receive a proper reward, more silver had to be squeezed out.

‘Should I kill him?’

Life shimmered in the eyes of the jade face sword. Nangin, who felt that, struggled.

Fortunately for Nangin, Okmyeonsalgeom did not pull out the sword again. If he killed two people in one day, the morale of his subordinates could have collapsed for nothing.

As much as the complaints of his subordinates had piled up, he had to restrain himself for now.

bang!

Okmyeonsalgeom, who threw Nangin aside, shouted while looking at the other subordinates.

“Are you saying that you guys still claim to be black swordsmen? The reason why I should just stop is because I’m afraid I’ll find out? If that’s the case, why don’t you put down the sword and go back and start farming!”

Some of the martial artists with a low level of martial arts trembled at the cry of inner strength.

“I’ve never seen a cowardly maggot like you guys! You want to take what you’ve dug up and disappear? could disappear But what are you going to do with it? Just buy a little piece of land and you’ll be done! If you were born as a big man, you should think about building a house with more than 100 rooms! you guys If you want to turn it off, turn it off now! If it goes out now, I will save you.”

“Oh no! This maggot got it wrong!”

“Sir, we made a mistake!”

Okmyeonsalgeom was convinced that greed properly set fire to his subordinates. The eyes of those who were not motivated until now changed.

“If you want to leave quickly, scrape the silver at any cost. Got it? If you don’t want to get caught, keep an eye on it. There are already suspicious people snooping around the mine!”

“Don’t worry about that. interpersonal.”

Commander Gui, who was acting as the right hand of the jade face sword, grinned. The only one here who came from the school was a bookkeeper who was trusted by Okmyeonsalgeom.

“Since suspicious guys keep snooping around, we’ve definitely prepared countermeasures in the mine.”

“At least you guys soothe my heartache. tell me.”

The commander-in-chief confidently unfolded a map of the mine’s surroundings.

Originally, there were several entrances to the silver mine here, and as the distance was considerable, sneaks from other areas would occasionally appear.

It was largely because of the nature of the mine that suspicious guys who were not permitted to enter were able to enter.

“One, two, three, the entrances here are blocked. I’m not going to go into this anyway, so it won’t matter. buy, oh The entrances here have been merged. There’s no way to sneak in, as the unmanned people are closely guarded and verifying your identity every time you enter. The same goes for the hex entrance. It’s right next to me, so I’ll check with you.”

“That’s a good idea… but what about seven here? It’s on the other side, and it’s the entrance that leads directly under the mine.”

“As expected, the great man is intelligent. I am well aware of the importance of this entrance. It was so wide that it was difficult to block it. So, we spread out the jinbeop in the neighborhood.”

The commander-in-chief lowered his voice. It was because it was something that other writers shouldn’t have heard.

“It’s a bloody bloody mess.”

“…!”

Okmyeonsalgeom was satisfied as if his irritation had been a lie.

If he was very bloody, he showed sincerity properly in school. It was clear that he was not just waiting, he was acknowledging the value of the Jade Face Sword and looking forward to it.

“Is that true?”

“yes. How safe would you lie?”

“excellent. great okay! If it’s true, you can trust it.”

Okmyeonsalgeom calmly nodded his head. Even if annoying guys came from outside, it was clear that they wouldn’t be able to catch their tail for a while.

“Looks like you need to enter the village first. You won’t be so suspicious. How many peddlers and peddlers must you hear in Kinam?”

“It’s dangerous in the current situation. Didn’t history say that a few people had disappeared? What if the enemies are just wary?”

The faculty and the bachelor’s opinions were tensely divided.

Gyowi, as usual, planned to go into Ginam, check the rumors around him, get the identity of one of the workers, and enter the mine disguised.

Regardless of whether or not the prefectural government was being threatened, it was judged that since there was a high possibility that there would be evidence inside the mine, it was okay to go in and check it out before making a decision.

But the bachelor was more cautious. I thought that if I was going to go in anyway, I should go straight to the mine instead of entering Kinam. Isn’t it a situation that can cause suspicion for nothing?

Then, the entrance here, where there are few people and you can go right down to the depths, was perfect.

“Now we have received reports of an attack in this area. I don’t want to take that risk.”

“I’ll dig through it.”

“Why is anyone in the know?”

Gyowi regarded jumping into the truth itself negatively. A well-prepared formation was extremely unfavorable to the attacking side.

It’s enough to take a detour, so what are you risking your life for?

“?”

While talking, the instructor suddenly realized that Podu had disappeared.

‘The truth!?’

As soon as I put my hand on the hilt of the sword in surprise, I heard Fodu’s voice in front of me.

“The truth has been unlocked! You can come this way!”

Silver mine disappearance case (2)

The bachelor, who hesitated whether or not to take out the bronze mirror containing the white god, was equally astonished.

“You unlocked the truth?!”

“yes!”

Geumuiwiwi did not move recklessly even after hearing that. I immediately gave the order to the bachelor.

“Check it out.”

“Al, okay.”

This bachelor calmly began to check the aura around him using magic techniques. If someone spreads the truth, artificial traces will remain. I had to feel a sense of incongruity that was completely different from the energy of nature.

But unlike before, I really didn’t feel any discomfort. The truth disappeared like a lie.

“Sah, it’s gone!”

“…!”

While the two were amazed, Yeon Woo-hyuk came back through the bushes. In his hand was a signpost made of red blood iron.

The bachelor Lee was surprised by the aura he felt there. If it was a strategy using such equipment, its power was not normal. If I had forced myself into it, I would have been seriously injured.

“Oh, thank you. Thanks to you, I didn’t make a mistake. But how did you get rid of this truth?”

“Thanks to the opening of the Sangdanjeon Hall, my spiritual eyes have been opened.”

“Ahh…”

Geum Ui-wii didn’t understand what he was talking about, but this bachelor immediately understood.

Among the supernatural powers in the old books, there was the spiritual eye.

This ability to see the invisible and to see the formless is a very rare ability, so I only saw it in old books…

Considering the aura of Podu, it wasn’t surprising that he had such a rare ability. It was clear that he had an innate talent for this technique.

I was destined to be short-lived because I was so brilliant, but…

“It was like that. Is that why you were able to solve cases that others couldn’t solve?”

“But you can’t find out the inside story of the case with that, can’t you?”

“A sage is the one who sees the heavenly way, who knows nothing under the world. That was enough for this Podu.”

A sage could know the world without leaving the door, and the way of heaven without opening a window. It was clear that this Podu was on par with him, if not up to that adult.

If you have a really brilliant mind, can’t you know the truth with just a few clues that others can’t see?

Even after hearing the bachelor’s words, the headmaster couldn’t believe it.

How can a person figure out all the truth with just such clues?

“Originally, a criminal’s insight cannot match that of an adult.”

“hmm. It’s hard to believe. How can you do such a trick?”

‘It’s embarrassing to hear.’

It was a very embarrassing conversation from Yeon Woo-hyuk’s point of view.

I couldn’t help but feel embarrassed every time I heard the story ‘How did that!’

However, this kind of bravado was essential to defending one’s right to speak under these circumstances.

If Yeon Woo-hyeok hadn’t been bluffing like this, the professor and bachelor wouldn’t have paid much attention to what he said. The same was true of Dangdeung, Buntaju of Opening, and the warriors of Paengjia in Hebei.

Even though he knew it was dangerous in Murim, where a single mistake could take his life, he couldn’t go into the limbs as it was. Unlike other Moorim people, Yeon Woo-hyeok has no background and his martial arts skills are still lacking.

At least he had to be able to take the lead in the situation as safely as possible.

‘The rank is first-class. The bachelor’s level is a little lower than that. These two are enough to handle the guys inside.’

Even the Murim people of the prestigious political faction, who only eat rice and practice martial arts, cannot easily break through the first-class barrier, but even if they were selected from among the outstanding military officers of the court, the fact that one rank was a first-class rank was proof of great excellence.

Perhaps Lieutenant Ha is highly regarded even within the Golden Council. Otherwise, I couldn’t have come alone so confidently.

Even this bachelor did not know the exact official position, but the level of internal experience he had accumulated was considerable. It was a strong force as he excelled in magic and even possessed self-interest.

‘It must have been a jade face knife, right? The number of subordinates was sometimes 20, sometimes 10…’

Okmyeonsalgeom is first class, and most of the others are third class. Even if there was a fight, the lieutenant dealt with only the boss, and Yeon Woo-hyuk and the bachelor dealt with the rest.

“Come in.”

“I’m ashamed of wasting time unnecessarily. You are better than me.”

“no.”

Once inside, a steep path appeared. I immediately understood what he meant by the shortcut entrance to the lower part of the mine.

As they walked down the street, Bachelor Lee asked Yeon Woo-hyuk if he had a crush on him.

“Did you learn how to do it?”

“There is one thing I learned through contact. Borrowing the power of Nam Doo-seong…”

“Nam Doo-seong! It’s a trick.”

The bachelor let out a sigh of disapproval.

To the scholars who studied Confucianism since childhood and entered the court, masters were those who disturbed the world with needlessly promiscuous techniques.

“Taoism is erratic and its power is difficult to predict. Sometimes it lends its strength, sometimes it strangles its owner. It’s not just that there are people among the Taoists who have fallen and fallen for Saihan magic.”

‘…no what to do…’

Yeon Woo-hyuk was dumbfounded inside.

It is said that bachelors learn the technique systematically and safely, but Yeon Woo-hyuk could not afford it. To be honest, just learning the magic tricks of the masters made sense.

“By comparison, bachelors use ghosts and mountain spirits under the command of the court.”

Apart from cursing inside, Yeon Woo-hyuk listened with interest.

As long as the opponent had superior magic skills than himself, he had many things to learn.

Taoists borrowed the power of immortals and ghosts on their own, but scholars subdued various immortals and ghosts by holding ancestral rites in the name of the court.

Those who can be manipulated are limited and the number of their abilities is reduced, but their power is much more stable and solid.

It was for this reason that the scholar who brought the treasure of the court right away laughed at the masters’ techniques as promiscuous.

There must be proper procedures and rituals for magic, but how messy it would look if he did it out of the blue without any of those things.

“What kind of training do I need to learn a stronger technique?”
