Episode 899
– My wife is sick. If I don’t catch a lot of fish this time, I won’t be able to pay for the medicine. I hope you have a big catch.
-A typhoon is coming from afar. I’m running away… but can I survive? My wife would be waiting…
– When I came to my senses, there were mermaids around me. I’ve heard of these. According to Shanhaigyeong, he was a person from the country of low people. He never gets old, doesn’t get sick, and doesn’t get tired easily…
– They say he makes his wife better. He asks for his first child in return. I promised I would.
-I came back with some gold pieces and some medicine. My wife got better. I was so happy.
-My wife’s appearance has changed a little strangely. Just like them. But I still love my wife.
-I gave birth to a child. I think he looks half and half like me and my wife. He is a strong boy.
-They came. When I resisted trying to take my child away, they made an offer. May you be blessed.
-I received a blessing. I too now become one.
-I should have received the blessing sooner. My back feels strong and I feel energized. My wife likes it a lot too. The child is also healthy. I heard that since you don’t get old, you will live a long time as long as you don’t get hurt. It is said that the lord has already lived for over a thousand years. I hope it is true.
-I lived here for quite a long time. But then I had a second child. I need to catch more fish.
-The lord called. When asked if he had learned the imperial language, he said that he had learned it because he came from a family of scholars before his downfall, and he said that he wanted to entrust me with the job. After much consideration, I agreed.
-I was chosen to interact with humans on earth. Returning to land for the first time in a few decades.
-Work is hard, but thanks to that, I am marrying my first child and taking care of my second. There was also a third one. The third is a cute daughter.
…..
…
.
-The freshness of the humans delivered these days is not good. That’s what Sapa guys always do.
-My daughter made eye contact with Nompang. I wonder why they like that flounder… I’m worried.
As I read through the diary, I was able to see more clearly how things had progressed.
In the process of these monster fish-people turning humans into monster-fish-people, their minds also gradually change into monster-fish-people.
Since they consider themselves not human, they have no qualms about dealing with humans.
Now it seems to be mainly used for rituals, but I see that it sometimes eats people…
‘When the body changes, does the mind also change?’
Just as the shape of water changes depending on the vessel, if a person turns into a monster fish, will his or her heart eventually follow the monster fish?
Well, even during Rakshasa, everyone forgot their memories of the night in order to maintain their sanity.
To protect his own humanity, he sacrificed an innocent child.
Even that choice is so terribly human that it leaves a bitter taste in my mouth.
However, this is fundamentally different from then.
The Goeeo people here have already wanted ‘blessings’ from the beginning and are adapting to that life.
Along with the body, the mind also became a monster.
‘In the end, the most important information is this. It doesn’t get old. As proof, the lord lived for over a thousand years. Additionally, the owner of this diary already became a monster fish person decades ago, and after becoming a monster fish person, he only started interacting with humans in the last few years.’
-I’ve heard of these people. According to Shanhaigyeong, he was a person from the country of low people. You never grow old, you never get sick, and you never get tired….
a phrase written in a diary.
And those on earth who were cured of incurable diseases may have regained their health because they were transformed into a race of monsters through this blessing.
They are definitely a more robust species than humans.
These people have been living on the bottom of the sea for a long time…
But one thing was certain.
If you leave them alone.
‘The humans of Cheongdo will be sacrificed, and before you know it, the entire region of Cheongdo will be conquered by these strange fish people.’
Still, the mixed race people who still retain their human form will try to hide their situation from the imperial government by pretending to be human.
Coffins like gold.
It was something like the physiology of Guan that had existed since before the Hua Empire existed.
Officials with integrity are killed by secret raids, and those who listen well are given gold.
Since we are a species that lives close to eternity, a few decades would be nothing.
Just by changing the government office three times, you can fill it with your own people.
‘But recently, its identity has surfaced.’
I thought they came out first, but looking at the diary, I think Master may have been the first to start nipping them in the bud.
Either way.
It was obvious that if this was left alone, the entire Gangho would be stained with blood.
We must stop this before that happens.
‘Ha… how far did Master predict?’
Jin Cheonhee took a deep breath.
What is certain is that the disciple will face the truth and wrap his head around it. You must have predicted this one 100%.
still.
‘I’m glad I’m not fighting alone.’
I have younger siblings.
* * *
‘What should I do? What should I do…?’
Jin Cheonhee’s eyes quickly turned blue.
If only their bodies had mutated, it might be okay to view them as humans.
However, we cannot treat people who are already far removed from humans in their souls and thoughts as humans.
Didn’t he choose to abandon humans in the first place?
‘But… no… let’s not have any more regrets.’
Jin Cheon-hee gritted her molars.
Aren’t they already eating humans?
‘okay. ‘I am not God.’
These are people who have chosen to abandon humanity and become something else.
Because saving at least one more person is a priority rather than worrying about those people.
What should we do to stop them from coming to earth and killing people?
First of all, the teacher said that monsters keep appearing as if they were being filmed, and I think I understand why.
In fact, they can make monsters out of people.
There will be many people who will do it if you cajole the sick.
Even if it meant becoming a monster and eating humans, there would be many who would do it.
Among them, there will be those who will do it just because they can live close to eternity.
‘In the worst case scenario…’
I am reminded of the fire caused by my teacher in the past.
It is a natural disaster itself, with no mercy and no dialogue.
What people living in the mountains fear most is forest fires.
Because it is not something that can be prevented by human power.
Master resembles a forest fire.
He did not compromise.
Don’t ‘talk’ to them. There is no consideration given to each individual’s circumstances.
Since it is their own fault that they have become monster fishers, they should also take responsibility.
It may seem cold, but in a way, it is a choice as a species.
As long as they eat humans, any compromises or peace negotiations are meaningless.
So, it kills me every time I see it.
Just as no hunter talks to a noxious assistant.
If the harmful assistant is stronger than humans and lives longer, there will be no room for compromise.
‘It is the Master’s way. I also don’t want to sympathize with those who have abandoned humanity. No, I don’t even dare to do that.’
Jin Cheon-hee gritted her teeth and stood up.
Chen Tianhui, Tianwu, and Sima Xuan are all absolute masters who have reached the level of peace.
In most cases, you won’t be caught.
However, if there is a monster of the same level as Tahapa that we encountered last time, the longer we delay, the higher the chance of being discovered.
Judging from the diary, Tahapa looked like a monster that was hundreds of years old.
In fact, monsters have stronger physical strength and strength than humans, but they are monsters that have only been practicing martial arts during that time.
Although he showed inaction on par or even worse, to the point of driving out such a person, Jin Cheon-hee’s impression was actually simple.
‘It’s annoying.’
After looking over a few more things, Jin Cheon-hee immediately left the office and headed to the place where they first dispersed.
Below, the ritual of making the hwandan is still going on.
All of those performing the ritual were pure-blooded monsters and did not speak the imperial language, so even if I heard a conversation, I couldn’t tell what it was about.
Spread your energy widely and take a close look at your surroundings.
‘I don’t feel like there’s anyone worth being wary of.’
Jin Cheon-hee headed straight to the entrance.
Sima Hyeon and Tianyu also found him and immediately joined him.
The three people nodded with just a glance and headed outside at the same time.
Not just outside the manor, but outside this city.
I have no intention of walking up the endless stairs.
container!
Sima Xuan’s body bounces like a rabbit floating on the moon and steps into the space between the stairs.
Weird rock climbing.
It bounced, bounced, and jumped with only the earthenform beam.
On the other hand, Cheonwoo uses Yuunbo to walk up and down stairs as if he were stepping on stepping stones.
And Jin Cheon-hee.
‘let’s go.’
Stairs that go round and round like a snail’s spiral. Climb up by stepping on the side.
When viewed from above, it looks like a squirrel running on a treadmill.
Cheonwoo asked in surprise.
[Don’t you get motion sick?]
[Yes. This is comfortable.] The
sight of people walking at a 90-degree angle, as if walking along the grooves of a screw, was truly bizarre.
In any case, the three brothers quickly reached the ground in their own way.
[Next time we come, let’s bring a rope~ bro]
[That would be better.]
Jin Cheon-hee also agreed.
When I came outside, the guards were dozing off.
The three leisurely go outside and watch the morning sun.
[Wow, it was a nightmarish night.]
A village of strange creatures, an underground city.
What I saw there was something the most terrible in the world.
* * *
Suddenly, I remembered what Eungryong had said in the past about the end times.
-It refers to the moment when the balance of all things in heaven and earth is broken and the owner of the world changes. Who is the master of this earth? Aren’t you, the descendants of Fuxi, and the humans whom you protect? However, the time will come when humans themselves will create chaos in the world. It is the moment when the owner of the earth changes.
-When that time comes, humans will no longer be able to claim to be the masters of the earth. The world will be washed away with your human blood and new order and rules will be established. Even if Fuxi sends down his eight trigrams to protect you, he will not be able to stop it.
It’s a shitty hypothesis.
‘If the end times come, will people like the monster fish people become the masters of the world?’
Maybe it’s because I just saw the Human Butcher Shop, but I feel like I’m in a good mood.
Jin Cheon-hee thought about this and had a fortune-telling breakfast.
Cheonwoo’s hands and feet were cold so he gave him acupuncture.
It was worth it.
Because what Cheonwoo saw just now was something he could never have imagined in his life.
The things that Chunwoo, a member of the political faction, is dealing with are at most a group of dark sects or blood missionaries.
Of course, the evil that humans do to humans is not weak, but it is on a different level from the food chain that other races do to other races.
‘I felt a strong sense of malice there. It wasn’t even a proper space.’
Since it was a space where a kind of soul-searching technique was used, it was enough to shake the heart of even the most steadfast Kang Ho-in.
Jin Cheon-hee gave a light fortune-telling breakfast and continued to place acupuncture points while pressing Cheon-woo’s acupuncture points.
“I’m OK. brother.”
“no. This must be done as quickly as possible to prevent a major accident later. “Just stay still.”
Cold sweat forms on Cheonwoo’s gigantic body.
This isn’t the first time this has happened to Jin Tianxi, and Sima Hyun…
Still, after experiencing something like the mushroom incident last time, he seems to be adapting well.
Perhaps, as he said, he is a ‘villain appointed by heaven’ from the beginning, so he is okay with such things.
“Hyuna. “Let’s take a look at Mac, too.”
“Yes, I will be colonel here.”
He said playfully and held his wrist.
When I checked my pulse, I found it to be extremely peaceful.
‘Well, Hyun… it’s truly something from heaven…. ‘Is that so?’
First of all, I know that his sensibilities are very different from those of ordinary humans.
But I decided to leave it alone because I could get hurt if I showed it for no reason.
