Episode 711. The gate of heaven is not a blessing, but a misfortune.
Hansanju.
Samchaeseong Okcheon Port.
Around four o’clock (10 p.m.), three huge wooden boats entered the dark harbor.
Before long, people poured out of the anchored boat.
They are union members who are the true members of the sect, anxiously waiting for the ship in Sacheonpo.
The faces of the masters of the sects who took their first steps in Okcheon Port were bright.
Unions of the Taesang sect, the Cheonji sect, and the Chunrae sect, waiting at the port, led the masters of their respective sects and disappeared.
Heartache also went with the Jinn of the Chun Lei sect on a stretcher.
The Okcheong union, the Myeongseon union, the Swordsman union, and the Jeokgong union, which remained until the end, stood side by side in front of Master Yeon Jeok-ha and bowed their heads in unison.
“I will never forget the kindness of Grand Master.”
“Call me any time. I will go ahead and run.”
“Hello.”
“see you again.”
Yeon Jeok-ha waved his hand in embarrassment at the polite greetings from the unions.
“song.”
When the Grand Master was embarrassed, the unions could not say anything more and disappeared like the wind.
Soon after the unions disappeared, the grain labor unions appeared like ghosts.
“Daejangnim. I will take you to your accommodation.”
“Yeah, why didn’t you come?”
The Gokbunjo union took the lead after a brief silent bow.
Yeonjeokha, who had been silently following him a couple of steps behind him, said in a passing tone.
“You must have known that we arrived at Sacheonpo yesterday, but the ship was very late?”
“Most of the ships went to Cheonjunghyeop, so it wasn’t easy to find them.”
“Chun Joong-hyeop?”
“Aren’t both the upper and lower reaches of Baekriha a battleground? Owners of boats going to and from Baekri River are passing from Cheonjunghyeop to Muryangha. It means that I will avoid it with four beolju through Muryangha.”
“Do Baek Ri-ha and Muryang-ha meet at Cheonjunghyeop?”
“Did you not know? Cheonjunghyeop is called the greatest mystery of Guju…”
The Gokbunjo union glanced back at Daejongsa.
Cheonjunghyeop is a place where Baekniha and Muryangha, which are 100 li wide, cross.
As such, the width of the river was wide and the depth of the water was so deep that it was difficult to guess.
Where should it be wide and deep?
There was a huge hole in the center, and the vortex created there absorbed everything.
Therefore, sailors who did not know the waterways of Cheonjunghyeop were reluctant to enter at all.
“You may not know. why? What’s wrong with me not knowing?”
When Yeonjeokha went out to fight, the Gokbunjo union hurriedly shook their heads.
“no. If you didn’t grow up in Hansanju, you might not know.”
Cheonjunghyeop is famous even in Guju, but there were people who didn’t know about it.
The Gokbunjo union walked quickly, fearing that Yeon Jeok-ha would hang on to the horse again.
The gokbunjo union, which had been walking for a while, went into a rather splendid hall.
Yeon Jeok-ha, who was following him, sneakily checked the signboard attached to the hall.
guest house.
For some reason, I thought that the hall was not unfamiliar, but this is where I stayed a while ago.
The Qubunjo union said goodbye to Yeon Jeok-ha in front of the annex of the guest house.
“Sir, I will go back now.”
“Where is the accommodation of the Gok union?”
“I am staying in the triad.”
“Triangle? ah! Where did Jincheon Gwangmyeong write last time? Of course, the facilities there are the best, right?”
“Other nobles said that we should not be negligent in worshiping Gwangmyeongjincheonnim as the ‘God of the Three Thousands’.”
The Gokbunjo union tried to get out of the way by using someone else as an excuse.
“It’s okay for Gwangmyeongjincheon-nim to use the triangulation. But why is the song union a trilogy?”
“I’m going to wait on the lord Jin Cheon Gwangmyeong…”
“Are you going to follow him when he goes?”
“It can’t be. I am only faithful to my duty as a footnote on the castle tower.”
“I’m kidding. What are you so nervous about? Could it be that I will send the good song union out of Cheonjijong? is not it?”
The gokbunjo union rolled its eyes.
It’s a joke, but for some reason it feels strong.
After defeating the demon, he will return to the world of heaven and earth, but will he try his hand at that time?
“Oh, my eyeballs will fall out. stop going Gwangmyeong Jincheon-nim will be waiting for you.”
“yes? Yes….”
The grain division union hurriedly withdrew in front of the younger brother.
It was true that Gwangmyeong Jincheon was waiting for his report.

Okcheon Port.
triangulation.
After breaking up with Yeon Jeok-ha, the Gokbunjo union went back to the triangle within a month.
It was late at night, but Jincheon Gwangmyeong was drinking tea alone in the guest hall.
The Gokbunjo union broke its back.
“People from Jongmoon from Sacheonpo have just arrived.”
Gwangmyeong-jincheon glanced at him and put the teacup to his lips again.
He has a sullen face, as if he is not very interested.
However, the Gokbunjo union was not fooled by Gwangmyeong-Jincheon’s attitude.
A war of nerves is not something that can only be done on one side.
The way to make a sound only when the palms collide.
I can’t understand it, but there is a strange tension between Gwangmyeongjincheon and Daejongsa.
Daejongsa reveals it as it is with young blood, and Gwangmyeongjincheon is only hiding it.
“It is said that Grand Master alone stopped the monsters from entering Sacheonpo this evening. For that, there is a lot of praise among the disciples of the sect.”
just as expected?
As soon as he heard the good news about Master Grand Master, Gwangmyeong Jincheon’s face frowned.
It revealed an instinctive rejection while ignorant.
That frowning expression was the relationship between Gwangmyeong Jincheon and Daejongsa today.
Gwangmyeong Jincheon, who quickly recovered his original color, asked.
“Have all the thousand ligu come?”
The Gokbunjo union, which had been expecting a word about Master Daejong, hesitated for a moment.
“result?”
“Everyone sent a reply saying they would follow Gwangmyeongjincheon-nim’s will.”
“Does the Grand Master know?”
“I haven’t had time to inform the Grand Master yet. You will find out tomorrow morning.”
“It was just fine. We will call a meeting after breakfast. Let me know then.”
“yes.”
The Gokbunjo union seemed to know Gwangmyeong-Jincheon’s thoughts.
Hearing the results in front of the venerable and gentlemen would hurt the great master’s pride.
As Gwangmyeong Jincheon kept his mouth shut, the gokbunjo union slowly finished and prepared to go.
Gwangmyeong Jincheon said to him as if passing by.
“How is the condition of the heart attacker?”
“I still can’t come to my senses.”
“That’s too bad. Check it often and let me know if there is any improvement.”
“yes.”
As soon as the Gokbunjo union answered, Gwangmyeong-Jincheon waved his hand as if telling him to go.
In response to his congratulatory order, the gokbunjo union bowed once again and withdrew.

Woongcheonju.
Senra Castle.
The heavenly role of Tongrong Channok, the blood master servant.
around noon.
About thirty dwarfs stood around the two huge stone pillars of the heavenly gate.
These are Broks brought by the demon Orobos to move the Astronomical Gate.
Dberg, the leader of Brok, gestured towards one side.
Then a dwarf wriggled out with a pot the size of his torso.
What filled the jar was red blood.
The jar shook in time with his steps, and blood splattered out of it each time.
The dwarf put the jar down in front of the gate and hesitated for a moment.
Then, ‘bang!’ the floor with the hammer that Deberg was holding. and took it down.
At that threatening action, the dwarf reluctantly drained the blood from the jar with a gourd.
And the fontanelle was sprinkled with blood.
Chow! Chow-!
The fontanelle was stained with red blood.
The dwarf circled the lower part of the fontanelle and sprayed blood all over.
Dark clouds gathered in the clear sky, and then it became dark.
The dwarves rolled their eyes with anxious faces at the sudden weather change.
Dberg said to the trembling Brokes.
“There is nothing to be afraid of because it happens frequently in Ungcheonju. Check if the consecration is broken.”
At Dberg’s words, a dwarf approached the stone pillar and swung a hammer.
bang! bang! Quaang-!
After several hammer strikes, the dwarf turned to Dberg.
“How are you?”
The dwarf shook his head excitedly.
Even after hitting it hard with a hammer, not a single piece of stone dust fell.
In an instant, curse words came out of Dberg’s mouth.
“shit! Even the blood of the maggot, the dirtiest monster in Macheon, doesn’t break the castle? Then what the hell am I supposed to do?”
He glared at the bloodstained stone pillar.
In the tradition of the Brokes, there is a creature that the creator god has marked as unclean.
A typical example is maggot heukjeo.
The black pig maggots are boiling with maggots all over the body. Even monsters are reluctant to eat them.
Also, the blood of black maggots is the source of all diseases.
There is no way if the blood of the maggot black bottom, which is used as a synonym for dirty, ugly, and unclean things, does not break the castle.
The Demon Orobos appeared behind Dberg, who was standing there stunned.
“Today is the last day as promised, but you seem to have plenty of time. Did you break the castle?”
Startled, Deberg quickly turned around and bowed his head.
“Orobos-nim, I tried all sorts of unclean things, but I couldn’t wake him up.”
“Are you cheating?”
“Yes, consecration originally means ‘something set apart from the world’. Conversely, if it becomes dirty, it loses its power.”
“Can you break what has been set apart by dishonesty?”
“Yes, careful management of consecrated objects is also to prevent them from becoming dirty. So I thought that if I polluted the Heavenly Gate, the consecration would be broken…
”
“That’s right. I tried everything according to the teachings of my tribe, but I couldn’t unlock the consecration.”
Ourobos, who was glaring at Dberg as if he were about to eat it, said.
“The heavenly gates were given to the Saviour’s men, not to you dwarfs.”
“What do you mean?”
“It is the sound of offering a human as a sacrifice.”
“This human?”
Deberg, a sub-species, stammered.
There was nothing wrong with using the monster’s blood. But humans are different.
In particular, they are closer to humans than demons.
But how could they use humans, a similar species, as sacrifices!
Orobos spoke in a bleak tone to the hesitant Dberg.
“why? Aren’t you reluctant because you’re a sub-species? The maggots you killed are close to our demons. Even so, I allowed it, but can you not say that the other person is a human?”
“…”
A dry saliva flowed down the throat of Deberg.
Demons and demons are as different as the sky and the earth, so Orobos’s words were unreasonable.
But I couldn’t point out the difference in front of him.
If he did, he would be sacrificed first before humans.
“Oh no. I was just thinking about what would happen if the consecration still didn’t work.”
“haha! Don’t waste your time on things that haven’t happened. let the human go If you want to return home alive, don’t let me down.”
“Yes yes. I will do as you ask.”
Dberg bent down so that his head touched the ground.
It was a pity for the human beings who would be sacrificed, but the priority was to protect Brokes.
As the demon Orobos left, dwarves with hammers gathered around Dberg.
Dberg said in a limp voice.
“You heard me? You have to do what the demons tell you to do, so prepare your mind.”
The dwarves made puzzled faces, but no one objected.
As the surroundings gradually brightened, Deberg raised his head.
The black clouds that had gathered over the heavenly gate were dispersing little by little.
“ha!”
A sigh escaped Deberg’s mouth.
Why did the God of Creation even consecrate the Astronomical Gate so that it could not be moved to another place?
‘Anyway, to the Savior’s people, the Heavenly Gate is just a piece of cake…’
No matter how much you think about it, the Heavenly Gate to the Savior’s people was not a blessing, but a misfortune.
