Episode 927 This is my role. (2)
“…a long essay.”
Baekcheon clenched his fists without realizing it.
This was what I really wanted to hear.
But it was also something I couldn’t hope for. The words spoken by the court were sharp enough to pierce the hearts of those listening nearby.
Baekcheon couldn’t help but think about what he would have responded if he were in that position. Could he have boldly made the choice to stand against Shaolin in order to follow what is right?
Of course, Baekcheon, the great disciple of Hwasan, can do it.
But could Baekcheon, the master of volcanoes, really make that choice?
Knowing how difficult the choice was, Baekcheon’s heart naturally heated up as he looked at Hyeonjong.
So did others.
The only thing in the eyes of Hwasan disciples looking at King Hyeonjong was trust and pride. Even when facing the Shaolin court, he never backed down and carried out the utmost degree of justice!
Of course, the court and legal community could not take advantage of the seething atmosphere.
There was a look of despair on the faces of the court.
“How…”
This isn’t the first time I’ve been rejected. However, this was the first time in his entire life that he met someone who declared to Lee’s face that they would take a different path from him.
Even those old factions and the five generations may have rejected his proposal, but they couldn’t bear to see him face to face, so they only sent letters from afar and walked away.
If they were sitting in front of the court, they would not have dared to say that they would not follow orders.
But… what kind of confidence does Hyeonjong have to say something like this in front of him?
In front of the court, the home of Thousand Year Shaolin?
“Lord Lord… no, Jang Mun-in.”
The court swallowed dryly as if it was difficult to continue speaking.
“Is this… is this really the meaning of volcano? “Is this really it?”
There was resentment and anger.
Since the court is also a person, this memory will cloud his future judgment. It was truly a burden for King Hyeonjong to leave behind bad memories for the head of the Millennium Shaolin.
However, Hyeonjong just stared at the court with calm eyes.
No matter how strong the wind blows, the plum tree, which is deeply rooted in the ground, will never be shaken.
“That’s right.”
The court slightly opens its mouth and then closes it again. As if it wasn’t easy to control this emotion even with his deep discipline.
“Do you think I gave you all these suggestions for the Shaolin movie?”
“….”
“Although the path may be different, all of this was for the benefit of all people in the world. Nevertheless, Hwasan refuses to hold Shaolin’s hand until the end?”
Cheongmyeong’s eyes became fierce. The moment he was about to open his mouth, Baekcheon grabbed his wrist. It’s as if they were asking us to believe in Hyeonjong.
“It is a path for all the people of the world….”
Hyeonjong nodded slowly.
“Huashan does not doubt Shaolin’s words. “Whatever the method, I will not doubt that what you want is peace.”
“Then why are you rejecting it?”
Hyeonjong smiled.
“Bangjang. “How can there be only one way?”
“….”
“Huashan is also a place for all people in the world. “This is a place where we try hard not to erase the two words ‘consultation’ from our hearts no matter what we do.”
“Then…”
“But.”
Hyeonjong’s voice became firm.
“Just because the meaning is the same does not mean the path is the same. Shaolin can strive for the same results as Shaolin and volcanoes can achieve the same results.”
“….”
“Isn’t it arrogance of the master to think that the only way to bring peace to the world is to work with Shaolin?”
The court’s face distorted.
Those words of arrogance made him more angry than anything he had ever heard.
“It is Hwasan that is arrogant, not Shaolin!”
“But that human…!”
Unable to bear it anymore, Cheongmyeong got angry and the five swords grabbed the hem of his clothes from all directions.
“This…”
Although Cheongmyeong felt angry for a moment, he also knew that violence should not be used here, so he grabbed my thigh.
After a moment of silence, the court took a deep breath, as if they thought I had said too much. But although he may have regained his composure, his eyes were still fierce.
“There is no point in further conversation.”
“I’m sorry, boss.”
“I respect Jang Moon-in’s choice. But…”
The eyes of the court were looking straight at Hyeonjong.
“You must remember one thing. “The fact that every choice comes with a price.”
The words were so blatant that the complexions of some of the disciples changed.
But Hyeonjong just calmly nodded.
“If there is something to pay, you have to pay.”
“I could not have taken it. “If only Jang Mun-in had been a little wiser.”
Hyeonjong faced the court in silence. Those deep eyes seemed to be putting pressure on the court.
“Certainly, if I had been a little wiser, I would not have rejected the host’s offer.”
“How can I…!”
“Isn’t that what negotiation is all about?”
“….”
“A wise person always considers profit. However, those who wish to be conscious must follow the path of their hearts, not their interests.”
The court fell silent.
“That’s what I think the volcano’s path is.”
The court closed its eyes without saying a word. The prayer beads in my hand were spinning quickly through my fingers. After being silent for a while, he slowly opened his eyes.
“It’s an agreement…”
A strange smile appeared on his lips.
“It sounds as if you are saying that Shaolin does not seek consultation.”
“That’s not what I meant.”
“…I fully understand the meaning of volcano.”
The court cleared out and stood up.
Sitting here any longer will only add to the humiliation. What reason is there to meet more face to face with people who cannot already be considered allies?
“I enjoyed my tea. “A long writer.”
“…yes.”
“Sending off is okay. then.”
The court looked around at everyone in the room. The last person my eyes landed on was none other than Cheongmyeong.
“I’m sure you’ll be satisfied with what you wanted, Hwasan Swordsman Association?”
“It looks like the manager was upset because things didn’t go his way.”
Cheongmyeong added with a chuckle.
“Isn’t that what life is all about?”
“That’s a good thing.”
The court nodded with a stern expression.
“But now it will be the volcano, not Shaolin, that will have to know the hardships. “Because you will have to deal with the wind that Shaolin blocked on your own.”
“Oh, that’s right. But it looks like your shoulders are a bit narrow. “You can’t even stop the Sapa bastards from attacking you.”
The court remained silent.
There is so much to say, but in this situation, if I mix it up further, it will only make me laugh.
It was not simply a failure in negotiations.
It was a crushing defeat.
It was the first incident in which he failed to achieve his goals even though he risked everything.
‘No, no.’
To be exact, it is the second one. The first incident in which his will came to naught was the World War II Jisui Martial Arts Competition.
‘I should have known then.’
The fact that a volcano may one day stand in the way of Shaolin.
“Amitabha Buddha.”
The court, which left a low expression of displeasure, ignored Cheongmyeong and opened its mouth.
“then.”
And I walked out without leaving a single regret. The legal community that followed him did not even glance at others or leave a common greeting.
widely!
The moment the door was slammed shut, all of the strength was released from the bodies of Hwasan’s disciples, who had been tense due to tension.
“Wwiuuuuuu!”
“…I thought I was suffocating to death.”
“…I was scared.”
A court is a court.
The pressure directly radiated by the head of Shaolin was not something they could handle. However, no one showed any shame and endured well until the end.
“Jang Moon-in… will you be okay?”
“Hmm.”
Hyeonjong let out a sigh at Hyeonyeong’s worried words.
“I’m not sure if my decision was right. But Hyunyoung. Don’t we already know very well that being tempted by the easy path for a moment can lead to even greater disaster?”
“…That’s right.”
“I don’t know. “Maybe it was because of my pride that I placed a difficult burden on you.”
“Is something like Shaolin such a big burden? “If that’s the case, they are bald heads living together.”
Cheongmyeong smiled and said to Hyeonjong, who still seemed unable to shake off his worries.
“There couldn’t have been a more perfect answer, Jang Mun-in.”
“you’re right.”
“We think what Jang Moon-in said was right!”
Finally, a smile appeared on Hyeonjong’s lips.
‘Those guys too.’
Because I have these kids, I can’t hastily choose the easy path. The upper water must be clear for the lower water to be clear, but sometimes the extremely clear lower water makes the upper water clear on its own.
widely.
At that moment, Hyeonjong’s gaze turned towards the door.
A low sigh escaped his lips as he saw the figure of a person who followed out of the courtroom without saying a word.
“How can you be so reckless! “How dare you, the head of the room!”
The court’s face turned red.
If it weren’t for the courtroom, he would have exploded several more times. When he saw it, that was not the attitude towards the head of Shaolin. It seemed that they did not even show the slightest respect for Shaolin, who had protected the peace of Gangho and mediated between numerous sects for hundreds of years.
Even the court, which would normally have criticized such a legal system, said nothing this time. I just kept my lips tightly closed and walked toward the mountain gate with long strides.
“Hwasan Sword Association… Hyeonjong.”
A boiling voice came out of the court’s mouth.
Has he ever experienced such humiliation in his entire life? My stomach was boiling and burning as if I had swallowed hot charcoal.
‘Since when did Shaolin start being treated like this?’
I’ve been working so hard for the world, so how can everyone only think about themselves!
Wow.
The court unconsciously bit its lip.
“Amitabha….”
Unable to handle the rising anger, he clenched his fists.
“Still, I believed that there were degrees to volcanoes, but I was wrong.”
“Bangjang….”
“Let’s go back to Shaolin.”
Just because Cheon Woo-maeng doesn’t help doesn’t mean he can’t deal with Sapae-ryeon. I just wanted to reduce the damage.
If that doesn’t work, it’s time to let them know.
It is not that Shaolin endured it because it was weak. This is why Shaolin is called the Millennium Shaolin and has not lost sight of the Big Dipper of power for hundreds of years!
To those evil factions and political factions that have forgotten morality!
At that moment, the court came to a halt.
“Dharma world!”
“Yes, Bangjang!”
“Bring Hyeyeon! “We can no longer have Shaolin disciples in places like this.”
“Oh, I understand.”
It was a moment when the legal community, tired of the anger of the court, was urgently trying to turn around.
“There’s no need to do that, boss.”
A calm voice came from behind them. The gaze of the court and legal community is turned backwards.
Hyeyeon was standing there, serving as class president. Wearing a volcanic uniform that doesn’t suit you at all.
“You’ve arrived at the right time. Pack your bags! We will go to Shaolin together. No, you don’t even need to pack! “Let’s leave right away.”
“Bangjang.”
Hyeyeon lowered her half-covered hands and stared at the court.
His clear and large eyes were as calm as a quiet lake.
“I’m not going.”
“…What did you say?”
When the court questioned again, doubting their ears, Hyeyeon even shook her head.
“I said I wouldn’t go.”
“This…”
Dharma’s eyes turned as cold as ice. Soon, his stormy anger poured out towards Hyeyeon.
