Episode 218
“Turn off ….”
Jang Sam -tae grabbed her sick hair and opened her eyes. As my blurry vision became clearer, I saw something large and black.
The moment he tried to come to his senses without properly recognizing it, it mercilessly swung its claws at Jang Sam-tae.
“Ahh!?”
Jang Sam-tae was startled and rolled around on the ground.
Finally, boom! A harsh sound was heard.
“What’s this?”
Jang Sam-tae hiccuped and looked at what was in front of him.
It was a bear.
A huge, merciless-looking claw.
Standing on two feet and looking at Jang Sam-tae, the sharp fangs exposed between the eyes and mouth were threatening enough to overwhelm the viewers.
“Why… why is there something like this?” Jang Sam-tae looked around with a puzzled expression.
I tried to understand the situation while hearing the bear’s voice growling and closing the distance.
The surrounding area was definitely mountainous.
He didn’t even have time to think about why he was in such a place when the bear attacked him so fiercely.
He screamed, opened his guard, and moved.
As he quickly climbed up the tree, the bear struck the tree several times with his huge front paws.
Kwasik!
The tree broke and Jang Sam-tae, who was above, was startled.
I knew enough about the strength of bears, but isn’t this going too far?
“You bastard!”
Jang Sam-tae, who took out a dagger from his waist, dived down and stabbed the bear in the shoulder.
The feeling of the blade digging in came from my fingertips.
However, as if not even feeling the pain, the bear struggled and struck Jang Sam-tae in the chest.
Plop!
A tremendous amount of pain was felt.
The body flew backwards and hit the tree.
The shock was strong enough to cause me to lose consciousness, and I felt like I was suffocating.
“Fuck you…!”
Jang Sam-tae’s hands were shaking and he tried to force himself to stand up.
Thinking that I would never die, I threw my dagger away.
Sigh-!
The extended dagger stuck in the bear’s waist.
Kwaaaaang-!
The bear screamed, perhaps because of the pain, but it only seemed to make him angry.
It seemed like the bear with its beaky eyes was about to devour Jang Sam-tae at once. This time, it felt so intense that it gave me goosebumps.
Jang Sam-tae took a nose-to-tail stance and threw up his arms.
Great hand sign!
Pow!
The flags of Podalap Palace stretched out and made a heavy sound.
The bear that had been hit by Jangbeop hesitated and stumbled once. However, those wild eyes did not die and he attacked again.
“This is crazy!”
Just when Jang Sam-tae was embarrassed and was about to back away.
The bear’s claws narrowed the distance so he had no time to dodge, and flew towards him as if they were going to rip his whole body apart.
Plop!
At that moment, a dull sound was heard.
The bear’s front paws were cut off and its head disappeared at the same time.
While blood splattered and wet Jang Sam-tae’s face, a flash of red light so fast that it was invisible once again penetrated the bear’s entire body.
Puff puff puff!
The bear’s large body instantly became a honeycomb.
The huge body, even with its head gone, stumbled greatly and then boom! He fell down.
“Tsk tsk, are you going to use it if you can’t defeat just one bear?”
The one who showed up was none other than Dan Woo-hyeon.
He was carrying a roe deer on his shoulder, as if he had gone hunting. As soon as his somber gaze fell upon him, Jang Sam-tae sat down as if his legs had lost strength.
“Well… I almost died…”
“I know. “I was watching…”
Jang Sam-tae’s expression twisted at that one word.
‘Then why don’t you hurry up and save me!’ I was so angry that it reached my head.
“Were you just watching?”
“okay.”
“why!”
“It was to check what your level was.”
“You almost died!”
” know.”
Jang Sam-tae clutched his pounding head.
The story seemed to be spinning in circles.
Moreover, this situation reminded me of a time when I went to catch bandits.
Dan Woo-hyeon put down the deer with a chuckle and kicked the giant bear’s body.
The large body flew high and landed in a corner like trash.
“You’ve lived your life believing only in Gyeong-gong until now.”
“Now we have Daesuiin and Huaitiangong.”
Jang Sam-tae muttered with an openly dissatisfied expression.
Although he is still the best at meditation, he learned some things from Sadohak and some things from the old monks at Podalap Palace.
Even with just this, he will be able to make a living in the midfield.
“Who taught you how to use Gyeonggong as a footwork?”
“This is the old man.” ” Right.”
Originally, Jang Sam-tae did not know anything like footwork
.
The only thing I learned from the time I first met my teacher until the teacher died was Gyeong-gong, and other than that, I knew nothing else.
So, I learned how to dodge and hit with a light attack through actual combat, and Sadohak refined it to what I am today.
‘Maybe that method was wrong?’
However, Dan Woo-hyeon calmly nodded.
“Okay, good job. “In my opinion, you are much better at light attack than at foot.”
“Hehehe, is that so?”
“But Daesooin is not right. “Don’t ever use Podalapgung’s martial arts again.”
“Ek 2”
Although it was at a crude level, the martial arts he learned the most were none other than the martial arts of Podalapgung.
This is because, while Sadohak focused on teaching one martial art, King Geumcheonsu put all the low-level techniques of Podalapgung into Jang Sam-tae’s head.
Telling them not to use it was like telling them to fight with their arms outstretched.
“But I don’t have any recommendations other than that.”
“Isn’t there the Tai Chi that I taught you last time?”
“That’s it…”
‘I forgot, you bastard.’
He also learned the famous martial art of Podalapgung from the martial arts leader of Sadohak, the leader of the Demonic Cult.
There was no need to use or remember Taijiquan, which was not even available to anyone on the street.
Moreover, what Dan Woo-hyeon explained was so difficult and confusing that Jang Sam-tae could not understand it at all.
“I learned a little bit of it, but it didn’t get into my head right away… hehehe.”
” I see.”
Dan Woohyun nodded without saying anything.
I thought he would take issue with the fact that he didn’t learn what he taught me silently, but seeing him agree, it seemed like he had expected it to some extent.
“Then it is done. Instead, dismember the roe deer and roast it. “There is a long way to go.”
“Yeah! Hehe, I will make it very delicious for you.”
Jang Sam-tae nodded, even though the corners of his mouth were shaking.
I didn’t know anything else, but I was confident in cooking.
With the expectation of being able to eat delicious meat, I approached the roe deer lying on the ground.
But something was a little strange.
The person who caught the roe deer must have been Danwoo Hyeon, and with his skills, he would be able to catch it without any damage.
However, there were two arrows stuck in the deer’s body, and they were not shot by Dan Woo-hyeon.
Even if he did shoot an arrow, he would be a person who would make a very smooth arrow because he was as sophisticated as Danwoo, whose dexterity reached the sky.
But this arrow was very crude. Even at first glance, it was made from tree branches roughly cut from the mountain, and the workmanship was not very good.
“Um… Master Jang…”
“What?”
“Depshow with an arrow stuck in it?”
Jang Sam-tae, who pulled out the arrow with a sigh, broke into a cold sweat. I felt even more anxious than when I encountered the bear a little while ago.
When I made eye contact with Dan Woo-hyeon, I saw him grinning.
“Yes, I shot it with a bow.”
“Who… who are you talking about?”
“Someone.”
Jang Sam-tae swallowed his saliva and looked around. This was the mountain I visited last time too.
That’s why I remembered what the villagers living nearby had told me about this place.
One of the mountain vegetables called Noknim 18chae was located right here.
Green water chae (綠樹者).
It was one of the top 10 places among the 18 Green Forest Villages.
“Those people… what do they look like…?”
“Isn’t that what all the bandits look like?”
“Hmph…
Jang Sam-tae felt like he was suffocating.
Judging by the way Dan Woo-hyeon spoke casually, he seemed to know that there was a mountain temple here where excellent experts gathered.
That meant that he touched it on purpose.
“No, Master Jang! “There’s a long way to go, so what if I disturb the green forest!?”
“No matter how much a bandit runs, how can he possibly touch these bandits?”
“oh my! Make everyone your enemy! That guy is an enemy too! This guy is also an enemy! What if you go around making enemies in all directions? “Isn’t this a place where you can’t sleep comfortably with your feet stretched out even when you sleep?”
As he raised his voice, Dan Woo-hyeon looked at Jang Sam-tae slyly. The expression did not change, but the look in his eyes was enough to kill a person’s spirit.
“Then all I have to do is make you stretch out your feet.”
” yes?”
Jang Sam-tae soon remembered that Dan Woo-hyeon was never a person who did useless things.
“Ha…haha, you’re going too far.”
However, Dan Woo-hyeon started building a bonfire with a nonchalant expression.
The action was so natural that there was no trace of tension.
No, let alone feeling nervous, it seemed like he didn’t even realize what he was doing.
Jang Sam-tae grabbed his throbbing head.
“If you don’t want to be a guest, keep your spirits up at all times.”
” yes’?”
Sigh-!
An arrow flew from somewhere, grazed Jang Sam-tae’s cheek, and flew toward Dan Woo-hyeon’s head.
While making a bonfire, he dodged an arrow with natural movements.
An arrow cut through the air and got stuck in a tree.
“For a martial artist, there is nothing more important than energy. You never know when and where you might get hit by a blind sword or arrow. Also, do not try to move based on what you see with your eyes; instead, anticipate and move ahead.”
Sigh-!
Another arrow flew.
The moment Jang Sam-tae, who was very nervous, heard the sound, he turned his body to avoid it.
However, as if he had expected it, another arrow flew in with this slight difference.
” 100 million?!”
Jang Sam-tae, surprised, lay down.
The arrow passed over the boat with a whoosh and once again got stuck around Danwoohyeon.
Puk puk puk!
However, they didn’t even pay attention to it and instead just broke the arrowhead and used it as kindling.
“As I said last time, there is no need to be scared because there are many. “In martial arts, life and death are not divided by number or number.”
” yes?”
Rumble-!
The ground shook violently as if an earthquake had occurred. When Jang Sam-tae turned his head in a cold sweat, countless bandits appeared.
Those standing behind aimed arrows, and those ahead drew their swords and threatened.
Among them, one with a slim body but holding a large sword stepped forward and shouted loudly.
“I dared to touch the green water salad without any fear… “Gagging!”
Plop!
When Dan Woo-hyeon snapped his finger, the head of the person who appeared to be Noksu Chae’s head flew away without a trace.
He appeared shouting loudly and fell down, spouting blood.
The Green Foresters who had come forward with great vigor were astonished.
“Organize the remaining things. If you get used to one-on-many fighting, your chances of survival will increase and you will be able to gain more experience.”
Jang Sam-tae opened his mouth wide.
