Episode 60
: Nothing has been gained.
Considering the money and time the Murim League invested in this incident, it would not be an exaggeration to say that it literally collapsed. As such, no results were achieved.
Honam Murim League branch.
Namgung Sohye sat quietly waiting for news. In order to obtain information about the disappeared Demonic Cult group, informants were released in all directions, but no communication of any kind was received.
Is this really the work of a demonic cult?
Doubts lingered one after another.
But what is holding her nerves even more is none other than this.
A memorial tablet broken into pieces.
This is the name that came out when those names were combined.
“Dan Woo-hyeon….”
Samcheon clearly said that he had brought a memorial tablet honoring the god of war. I already heard about it from the hunter, and I have obtained what can be considered evidence, so it is probably not a lie.
“It’s really not Dan Woo-hyeon, but…”
Namgung So-hye shook her head. There are countless names with the same name.
Just as there are people in Anhui who use the surname Namgung although their meanings are different, there
can be many people with the same name.
but.
‘His identity is unclear….’
Namgung So-hye, who returned to the Murim Alliance branch first, conducted a background investigation on Dan Woo-hyeon.
We sent letters to not only the government but also other intelligence groups, but we couldn’t find anything except that he suddenly appeared in Akyang.
I searched for everyone named Dan Woo-hyeon in Jungwon, but the fact that there was no one who matched him meant that no information about him was found.
“Hehe, what are you worrying about so much?”
“Ah, Grandpa….”
“It’s okay. sit down “Is it because of Gunja Island’s incident?”
“…But there is something that bothers me a little.”
“Hoo? “Men’s problems?”
“Oh no… ah… no, it’s not like that…”
“Hehehe, I guess you’re old enough to get married now.”
Looking at Namgung Sohye’s embarrassed appearance, Namgung Cheon chuckled. Who on earth is this man who made this child, who has always been so impregnable, like this?
The puzzlement did not go away.
“Grandpa….”
“Okay, tell me what’s going on.”
Namgung Sohye took a deep breath.
In fact, I was wondering if saying something like this was somehow calling me crazy.
“Can a person… live for a thousand years?”
“Kkekekekekekekeul _”
Sure enough, Namgungcheon burst out laughing.
For a moment, Namgung Sohye’s face turned bright red. Even when I thought about it, I could say that this was a ridiculous question.
“A long time ago, Qin Shi Huang tried so hard to create the elixir of immortality, but in the end, he could not avoid death.”
“Yes… of course.”
“Everyone dies. “There were some people other than those examples, but…”
“Are you talking about the Eight Immortals…?”
“Yes, those who have become good men and have been protecting this central martial forest for a long time. Of course, it is nothing more than a legend, so it has no credibility, but I think it would be possible if it reached that level.”
Sigh-
Namgungcheon laughed.
This means that it is a level that cannot be easily climbed by human strength. Of course, it is not impossible that the Eight Immortals were humans in the past, but no matter how much I thought about it, it seemed unlikely that he would have entered the realm of immortals.
‘You have a strange personality!’
Namgung So-hye quietly recalled Dan Woo-hyeon.
Yeah, if you think about it, it couldn’t have been that way.
There is absolutely no possibility that he is the same person who was called a human or a martial god a thousand years ago.
Who is Mushin?
He was passed down only as a legend, but now that his existence has been confirmed, he reigns as the strongest man in the history of the Jungwon martial arts world, and he is an existence so great that stories about him will continue to spread in the future.
Considering that such a person is picking the pockets of bandits and making fun of himself, there is no chance that it is the same person.
If you exist at that level, you should be noble, noble, and dignified like Namgung-cheon, and despite that, you should feel spirit.
‘Mmmmm!’ Namgung Sohye nodded and sighed.
Now that I have organized my thoughts, I feel at ease.
“Are you any less worried?”
“Yes, thank you, grandfather.”
“Hehe, okay, okay. “Well, since I’ve been with my granddaughter for the first time in a while, I’d like to go see Dong-ho Dong-ho. What do you think?”
“Do… Dong-ho?”
Namgung Sohye broke into a cold sweat.
Because when I went there, for some reason, nothing happened.
“Are you sure?”
“Yeah, no.”
Jang Sam-tae looked intently at Dan Woo-hyeon.
The sight of him muttering with an unchanging expression is such that the expression “thick-faced” comes to mind.
No, no matter who looks at them, they are the remains of three thousand people.
Is this how you get punished even if you cheat?
“But the memorial tablet…”
“It’s just that the name is the same.”
Cheon Mukwang, Nam Joo-ryeon, and Tae Gong-jin.
How could these three people have the same name?
‘It’s not like I think people are fools.’
Jang Sam-tae twitched his lips and muttered.
“Aren’t their eyes defective?”
Dan Woo-hyeon glanced at Jang Sam-tae and Kwon Moo-jin alternately. The two people looked at each other with quite stern gaze and seemed to be confident about it.
Their eyes are not sick.
It’s not a blind service and your mind is still intact, so don’t think about deceiving me.
The facial expressions that seemed to say that were revealed.
Dan Woohyun chuckled.
“That could happen.”
“greatness! “Go and get some training…”
At those words, Kwon Moo-jin was the first to leave.
It wasn’t like he was spewing out lethal force, but looking at Dan Woo-hyeon’s expression, I felt like if I dug any deeper than this, nothing good would come out of it.
Danwoohyeon will also have his own circumstances, so you won’t gain anything if you dig into them.
However, Jang Sam-tae is quite persistent.
“True! Lord Jang, don’t be like that, just talk to Samtae Lee. “How on earth did you get it?”
“Didn’t you say no?”
“Are you really going to do this!?”
“Uncle Jang, the ball flew that way, but I couldn’t find it. help.” At that time, Dan So-mi came running at a fast pace, grabbed Jang Sam-tae’s collar, and had tears in her eyes. His face looks shocked that the ball he was playing with has disappeared.
Jang Sam-tae suddenly left Dan Woo-hyeon’s side.
“I’ll bring it to you right away!”
“Hehe, thank you.”
Dan So-mi just looked at Jang Sam-tae, who disappeared with a bright smile. Eventually, when he was completely out of sight, he sat down next to Dan Woo-hyeon and laid down with his knees on his back.
Dan Woohyun smiled at that sight.
“Did we have a ball in our house?”
“Hehe… hehehe, this… must have been there?”
Dansomi laughed awkwardly while doing something else.
None of her toys had anything like a ball. This is nothing more than something Dan Woo-hyeon just said because he seemed to be in trouble.
“Lying is not good. But white lies are also necessary. “Isn’t it truly a strange thing?”
“Heh… hehe, that’s right. “But what does Uncle Jang keep asking?”
Dansomi tilted her head.
Normally, it wouldn’t be that tough and stretchy. If Dan Woo-hyeon didn’t answer, it was common to assume it was just that and move on.
But today, after being so persistent, Dansomi finally came forward.
“Sometimes what you don’t know is the cure. In the future, you too will learn those things.”
“Yes, Somi, I know what you mean. Hehehe.”
Dan Woo-hyeon let out a small laugh and patted the laughing child’s head.
He, who had been in a bad mood for two days after burying Samcheon’s remains, realized that the smile was warm without knowing it.
Haha, he laughed too, and Dansomi snuggled into his arms.
“But what about your sister?”
“well? “ I think you might be very busy
.”
Dan Woo-hyeon thought of Namgung So-hye.
The Murim Alliance, which had not gained anything, would have become very angry. We will try to find clues about this incident by digging into not only the Demonic Cult but also other forces.
Because it took a lot of money and time.
Of course, Namgoong Sohye is also busy, right?
Around the time I was thinking that.
Dan Woo-hyeon’s gaze turned towards the gate.
I tried to call Samtae, but when I thought about it, he disappeared, saying he was looking for a ball that wasn’t there.
In the end, Dan Woo-hyeon slowly stood up.
As he was walking towards the gate, he felt something for a moment and raised his head. A small smile appeared on my face as I realized that the force felt by the wind was unusual.
How long has it been since I felt this kind of momentum?
The moment you reach out and open the door.
“Ah haha ah… hello?” Namgung Sohye was seen smiling awkwardly. He continued to look at Woohyun’s eyes with a somewhat uncomfortable expression.
But Dan Woo-hyeon’s gaze was not directed at her.
The old man seen behind him.
This is Namgungcheon.
“It seems like a distinguished guest has arrived.”
“Hehehe, thank you for thinking that way.”
Namgung-cheon sees Dan Woo-hyeon for the first time.
However, I knew that what came out of his mouth was probably not an honorific, but it wasn’t enough to make me feel bad.
It was so natural that I didn’t even care.
“You know what? While looking around Dongjeong Lake… I tried to get a room… but
there were a lot of people…”
“It’s okay.” “Come in.”
‘ uh?’
Don’t get angry.
Namgung So-hye looked at Dan Woo-hyeon with a quite surprised expression. I thought he would naturally get angry if he suddenly came to me without any prior notice, but strangely, he accepted it easily.
‘Is there something else going on?’ He looked around with a suspicious expression.
“I thought the Murim Alliance would be very busy, but it seems to be surprisingly free.”
Trudging –
I heard the voice of Dan Woo-hyeon, who was walking ahead.
Only then did Namgung So-hye come to her senses, and before she could say anything, Namgung Cheon, who was standing next to her, opened his mouth.
“It’s something I do all the time, but if I don’t even have that kind of free time, would I use it?”
“That’s interesting. “I can still smile even though something like that happened to me.”
“Hoo? “Can you tell this old lady what such a thing means?”
Namgungcheon looked at Danwoohyeon with sparkling eyes.
The fact that there was no income from Gunja Island is not even a rumor yet.
If Dan Woo-hyeon knew about it and spoke about it, he was probably saying that Lee was also involved in it.
At that time, Dan Woo-hyeon, who was ahead of him, suddenly stopped.
He slowly turned his back and exchanged glances with Nangong Cheon.
Creepy-!
And saw.
As soon as Namgung-cheon looked into Dan Woo-hyeon’s eyes, his entire body became weak. Although it only lasted for a moment, my vision became dark and cold sweat broke out all over my body.
I tried to force a smile while brushing off the dried needles, but it only incited my fear even more.
“Sometimes it’s better not to know anything.”
Finally, Namgung Cheon came to his senses when he heard a word. Without realizing it, I took a step back and swallowed dry saliva.
That single word that came out of Dan Woo-hyeon’s mouth incited an endless feeling of fear.
Namgungcheon of this world.
Cold sweat ran down his forehead.
