YM778.TV Chapter chapter 56
The Black Iron Room was a party of decent size.
They had several large arenas and several large warehouses for weapons.
There were also a lot of blacksmiths that produced arms.
Looking inside, it was actually much closer to a smithy rather than a Moorim party.
Inside the Black Iron Room, people dispatched from Homu-ryeon were wandering about.
Although they were investigating hard, everyone looked dark as if there weren’t any results.
Byeoktaesan went further inside.
Then he stopped and looked at the Homu-ryeon warriors who had followed him until now.
“How far are you going to follow?”
“Pardon? We were just told to escort and guide… … .”
“Even in here? There’s nothing dangerous or complicated enough to be guided? Are you guys here to spy on me?”
“Well, of course not! Absolutely not!”
Byeoktaesan looked at the warriors silently without saying any more.
Whether that was such a great pressure, everyone looked embarrassed.
“Then… We will be at the entrance. Please call us when you return later.”
The warriors left after saying that.
Byeoktaesan glanced at the Homuryeon warriors who were getting farther away and then turned his gaze to Cheon chu shin ui.
“Aren’t you a professional at this kind of thing? Take a look around.”
Cheon Chu Shin Ui stepped forward with a positive expression.
“I am honored the lord appreciates my skills. If you leave it to me, I will bring out the things that were hidden deep in the minds of those who did this. Since I’m on the subject, but there were guys called Black Tigers before. What they were like… … .”
Byeoktaesan waved his hands. He cut off his breath exquisitely, shutting the mouth of Cheon chu-shin ui, and made a chin gesture.
“Stop talking and find out. There’s no time. I feel like an uninvited guest will be coming.”
“An uninvited guest?”
Young Ha-rin, who was watching Byeoktaesan from the side, looked puzzled at the words uninvited guest.
Byeoktaesan replied casually.
“Homu-ryeonju.”
Yeon Ha-rin looked frightened and looked around.
“My-my lord! How can you call the Homuryeonju-nim an uninvited guest? It’s going to be a big deal if anyone heard that.”
“What’s the big deal. How will his coming here be of any help? The one who interferes with your work should be called an uninvited guest.”
“Even so, Ryeonju-nim is an amazing person.”
“Hm… well yeah he’s not too shabby.”
He was still quite memorable, so he was pretty decent. Since a person who held on with pure willpower alone was pretty rare.
Yeon Ha-rin looked blankly at Byeoktaesan. She never thought that there would be anyone who could talk to Ho Mu Ryeonju in this manner.
However, it was even more surprising that Byeoktaesan was the person who said that.
Yeon Ha-rin looked around in a strange sense of incongruity that suddenly occurred.
Even though Byeok Tae-san just said that no one’s face changed.
In other words, either they were used to this situation, or they agreed to what Byeoktaesan had said.
When Yeonharin was blank, Byeoktaesan said.
“Because his eye is decent, it will be good to learn from him.”
Hearing that, all of them followed Cheon Chu Shin Ui.
Cheon chu Shin ui started with how to infer the situation through traces that were revealed everywhere, told them of the rumors gathered around Black Iron Room, and even provided information that could be extracted through it.
Everyone’s eyes opened wide, and they focused on the words of Cheon Chu Shin Ui.
They didn’t know that Chon chu Shin ui were not only good with medicine but also had such talent.
When everyone was looking around and learning from Cheon chu Shin-ui, Byeoktaesan was looking around with a different perspective.
“This reminds me of the old days.”
In order to sit in the seat of Cheonma, you have to go through a difficult journey.
It was difficult to even attain the qualifications.
Even after obtaining the qualifications, you must walk the path of blood.
And just because you became the Cheonma did not mean that it was immediately recognized.
When you become the Cheonma, you are given the qualifications to master Spirit Absorption, and he had to do a lot of work for the Cheonma Shinkyo while learning it to become a true Cheonma.
In fact, there was much more bloodshed after becoming Cheonma than the blood he shed before he became Cheonma.
And right after becoming Cheonma, he had the experience of solving several cases similar to what he was doing now.
Of course, the end of these investigations it always boiled down to destroying everything.
Anyway, looking at things like this after a while, it reminded him of the old days.
The first thing he did after he became Cheonma was to investigate the annihilation of a cooperating party that was a little far from the Cheonma Shinkyo and to find and destroy the culprit.
Byeoktaesan moved slowly. There was a small training arena in the immediate vicinity.
As it was located deep in the inner circle, it seemed that it was used by the main people of Black Iron Room.
Il Chim Gui carefully followed Byeoktaesan.
He didn’t want to see Cheon chu-shin-ui pretending to be in the spotlight, so he decided to stay by the scary Byeoktaesan.
Of course, it was a choice because he knew that Byeoktaesan wasn’t always scary.
Byeoktaesan nodded as he stood in the middle of the training arena and looked around.
“It’s pretty good.”
Il Chim Gui asked with a puzzled look.
“What are you talking about?”
“Look at the traces on the floor and walls.”
Il Chim Gui listened to Byeoktaesan’s words and looked for traces.
There were countless thin traces on the floor and the walls.
“Were all this done by sword aura arts?”
“But it doesn’t mean there are no eyes to see at all.”
Il Chim Gui was admired.
It was really not easy to pull the sword aura out so thinly and swing it, and to engrave a wound this deep into a hard stone with it.
As Il Chim Gui was admiring and looking at the traces, the Cheon Chu Shin Ui and the group that went with him came in.
He quickly looked at the traces on the walls and floors as if he had heard what Il Chim Gui had said.
“Hoh. They didn’t just pull out the sword aura and swung it, but used it like a whip. I’ll show you how to guess the trajectory from the continuous pattern, so everyone gather here.”
Il Chim Gui looked at that with unpleasant eyes.
He didn’t want to see him acting like that, so he came with Byeoktaesan, but his fists trembled as he followed him all the way here.
As he was seriously contemplating whether to go and hit him, Byeoktaesan talked.
“Don’t you think that someone who can pull the sword aura so thinly and swing it like a whip fell too easily?”
At the question of Byeoktaesan, Il Chim Gui tilted his head.
“Then, did the people of Black Iron Room secretly leave? Why would they do that?”
Byeoktaesan shook his head.
“Everyone here is dead. I don’t know if they are all dead, how many escaped, or captured and dragged them away, but it’s clear that at least a hundred people died here.”
He looked at Byeoktaesan in amazement.
“How do you know that?”
Byeoktaesan looked around with calm eyes.
“Don’t you smell of death? It’s so terrible that it’s not on the level of 1 or 2 dying.”
When he heard that, he sniffed his nose and smelled it. However, he didn’t smell anything special.
“It’s not the smell you smell with your nose.”
He stopped sniffing with a grim expression.
“Now, let’s think about this now.”
He looked at Byeoktaesan, thinking that the word “Think” with Byeoktaesan really did not match.
“What should you do to decimate a group that had the likes of this person who was strong enough to leave such a mark without any noise or trace?”
Il Chim Gui tilted his head. There was an idea that came to his head.
“Poison?”
“That’s correct.”
Il Chim Gui read the confidence in Byeoktaesan’s eyes. How was he so sure?
There was no law that said they were all killed with poison.
Of course, that’s the easiest way to think about it.
“Do you know anything about poison?”
“I know quite a bit.”
“How is it compared to Dokma?”
Il Chim Gui made an absurd expression.
The Dokma was a person who is said to be the first in the world when it comes to poison.
So, of course, compared to Dokma, his knowledge was a few levels under. At least it was when it came to poison.
“Who can possibly win in poison against the Dokma?”
Il Chim Gui said so and asked carefully.
“But… Why do you ask that?”
Byeoktaesan looked around and said insignificantly.
“Because it seems like the Dokma was involved here.”
The eyes of Il Chim Gui became the size of a fire lamp.
“A-Are you sure? No, how did you know that?”
“It smells of poison.”
“Excuse me?”
“It smells like the poison he was proficient with.”
Il Chim Gui looked at Byeoktaesan with absurd eyes.
Byeoktaesan continued to say as if he wasn’t interested in what kind of expression Il Chim Gui made.
“But it has a strangely annoying smell along with it. All you have to do is find it. It will be difficult alone, so take the guy who is talking over there talking his ass off and do it together.
Il Chim Gui slightly lowered his head.
After a while, Il Chim Gui and Cheon chu shin ui began to look for signs of poison around them, using all kinds of methods.
Byeoktaesan left after giving them work to do.

Usually, when an incident occurred, it was rare that Ho Mu-ryeon-ju personally visited the site during the investigation.
He knew that if he visited himself, it would interfere with the work.
Therefore, everyone was surprised to see Homu-ryeonju appearing in the Black Iron Room out of nowhere.
“Ryeonju-nim, what are you doing here?”
Danju from Jeokmyeongdan, who was responsible for the investigation here, quickly ran to meet the Homu-ryeonju.
Ho Mu Ryeon-ju had no intention of interfering, so he waved his hand in haste.
“You don’t have to do this. You can go back to work.”
The Jeokmyeongdanju asked carefully.
“Have you ever come to see the two doctors?”
Homu-ryeonju nodded.
“Yes. I asked them for a favor.”
“They have gone deep inside.”
There were doubts in the eyes of Jeokmyeongdanju who said so.
No matter how famous they were, what can doctors know?
“Looking at your expression, it seems like you don’t like it.”
The Jeokmyeongdan Danju got frightened and waved his hands.
“There is no way I would think that. It’s just… I was just wondering why they came here.”
He’s asking for the doctors because he needed work that only doctors can do.
“I didn’t deliver it on purpose.”
“Pardon?”
Ho Mu Ryeonju laughed.
“I have someone I must meet.”
The Danju stared at Homuryeonju blankly. What is the relationship between having someone to meet and not explaining the circumstances to the doctors?
“Anyway, let me deliver it myself. So keep doing what you were doing.”
Homu-ryeonju streaked into the Black Iron Room.
In fact, there was still a lot to do. The work was delayed again because the work with Byeoktaesan was still not resolved.
As a result, today too, it was like putting off work again because of Byeoktaesan.
Probably later, he may have to spend a painful time hearing the nagging that has been put off by the general manager until now.
Still, he really wanted to come here.
He also wanted to see Byeoktaesan, and also wanted to check Black Iron Room with his own eyes.
From the moment he heard the report of Black Iron Room, he was strangely annoyed.
However, the identity of this annoyance has not been clearly identified.
Therefore, he came here to see the Byeoktaesan and to find out the strange nature of this annoyance.
The Danju stared at the back of the Homuryeonju entering the room and turned around.
“What are you doing, did you not hear the words of Ryeonju-nim! Keep doing what you were doing!”
Everyone scattered at his yells.
* * *
Homu-ryeonju went deep inside the Black Iron Room.
“They sure came deep inside.”
If he had brought the doctors with him, he should be doing what a doctor should be doing. What’s the reason for coming in all the way here?
Soon, Ho Mu Ryeon-ju arrived at a small training arena.
There were a lot of people in the training arena. And as always, Yeon Ha-rin stood out the most.
Homu-ryeonju put Yeon Ha-rin in his eyes and looked at the surroundings step by step.
However, no matter how much he looked around, Byeoktaesan was not visible.
There are Yeonharin, beauties that were slightly less beautiful than Yeonharin but still enough to make a man’s eyes open wide, and Cheon chu Shin ui and Il Chim Gui, Cheon Gyeong-wan and Yoo Seo-yeon, but there was no Byeoktaesan to be seen.
Yeon Ha-rin discovered Homu-ryeonju who was looking around like that.
Young Ha-rin was surprised and ran to Ho Mu Ryeon-ju and politely took a bow.
“It’s an honor to see you Ryeonju-nim.”
“Yes, thank you for your work. But… … .”
Before Ho Mu-ryeon-ju even spoke, the rest of the party ran and said hello.
Among them were Cheon chu Shin ui and Il Chim Gui.
“What brings you all the way here Ryeonju-nim? You must be busy.”
Ho Mu Ryeon-ju replied with a smile when asked why he came here although he should have been busy.
“No matter how busy I am, don’t you think it’s not right of me to pass on this important task and not do anything myself? I also had something to ask of you two.”
“Is the request by any chance… checking the conditions of the ones living around here?”
Homu-ryunju’s eyes slightly widened.
“How did you know that?”
“As we investigated here, it looks like the aftermath of here would affect the ones living around here.”
“The aftermath? if… … .”
“Yes. It looks like someone used poison.”
The expression of Homu-ryeonju hardened.
