< Episode 33: Battle for disciples (2) >
At this distance when the sound becomes more powerful it is difficult to determine who is talking or where they are.
But surprisingly Mok Kyung-un found himself after two attempts.
A guy who has just reached the peak of his body has this much sensitivity?
Choeum Gokju Hang Yeoryang flicked his tongue and tasted it.
A strong greed arose.
‘How can you give up something like this?’
Even if most of the executives were targeting him he had no intention of giving in.
No their opinions didn’t matter anyway.
This was one thing.
All it took was a little bit of coaxing of the tree cultivators.
Hang Yeoliang looked at Mo Gyeongyun and spoke again with genuine energy in his voice.
-Hehehe. It’s pretty good. I can’t believe I found it right away.
Hearing her voice like this Mo Gyeong-un’s eyes narrowed.
She was so energetic that she created waves and she was looking at the person at the center and her guess was correct.
But how did you do it?
She said ‘You didn’t open your mouth?’
The sound was ringing in my ears.
While he was wondering so Hang Yeoliang the master of Choeumgok said to Mo Gyeongun.
-Why are you excited?
It was more interesting than surprising.
The method of transmitting sound this far using energy seemed quite useful.
Should I say that it seems suitable for secretly talking to someone?
-Are you curious about how to do it?
There was no way I wasn’t curious.
Mok Gyeong-un lightly nodded her head.
Then
-Would you like me to teach you?
Are you suddenly teaching me this?
At this her neck tiller looked at her quizzically.
Mo Kyung-un thought that everything had its price so she thought that there was no way that woman could teach her this with pure intentions.
She said ‘It’s very interesting but there’s nothing uncomfortable about not knowing.’
At this Mok Gyeong-un chuckled and turned her head.
Then Hang Yeoliang frowned slightly.
She tried to pique her interest in the guy but she didn’t expect him to reject her all at once.
‘…He’s a fun guy.’
She didn’t ask for anything in return she just said she would teach me and this is the first time I’ve seen a guy end his interest so immediately.
Maybe that’s why she’s even more interested.
So she
-The basic principle of sound is to create vibration in the air through sound. This can be said to be a similar principle.
‘!?’
what?
She didn’t say she would learn but when she explained her principles one of Mo Qingyun’s eyebrows rose slightly.
Be that as it may Hang Ruiliang continued her words.
-Arouse energy and quickly vibrate as if touching a cotton pad to the Yeomcheonhyeol (廉泉穴) between the neck ulnar area and the root of the tongue. and….
Even though I didn’t want to hear it I couldn’t help but find out how to do it because I kept hearing it.
Moreover surprisingly the method was not very difficult.
-If you’re as smart as me this explanation should be enough right?
At her words Mok Gyeong-un slightly turned her head to the side.
Then looking at her I tried sending her true energy into the Yeomcheon acupoint as she taught me and gave it a try.
-Is this how you do it?
‘That’s right.’
Hearing her voice Hang Lu-liang gently raised the corner of her mouth.
It’s also clever.
Although it may seem easy to do it is actually not that easy to understand and do it at once.
He has the unique ability to easily accept principles.
‘He’s a kid who has a taste for teaching.’
Mok Gyeong-un asked her.
-That’s cool. What can I say about this method?
-The Daengjung of Shaolin call this Uihapjeonseong (意闔傳聲) but this Gokju and those who study Yin Gong call it Jeoneum Ipmil (傳音入密). Well in short it is also called Jeonum.
-Electric sound… Is this a method that others can’t hear?
-okay. It’s a very suitable method for secret conversations like you and me. Isn’t it okay?
-yes. I see.
It certainly seemed like a useful tactic.
Sound is transmitted by creating waves with very light energy.
I didn’t really have any intention of learning it but since I learned it on my own it seemed like it would be useful.
Then she sent her message.
-I saw Bimu and it was great.
-thank you.
-This Gokju originally came to pick up her girl but it was a confrontation that made him change his mind.
At her words Mok Gyeong-un sighed and laughed.
She was the one who openly revealed her true feelings.
As expected there was a purpose in teaching me this method.
-Ahh. Now that you say that I don’t know what to do.
-Hehehe. Hey kid. Let me be blunt. Become Gokju’s disciple. Opportunities like this are rare.
Hang Yeo-ryang the master of Choeumgok openly suggested that he become his disciple.
In fact her suggestion like this was really unusual.
She had not yet completed the final hurdle and had not yet completed her formal training but it was impossible for her to contact a cadet and encourage him to become her disciple without feeling very uncomfortable.
However the problem was that Mok Gyeong-un himself had no intention of becoming a disciple of Choeumgokju.
She sent her whole message with her expression of pity on the neck tiller.
-What should I do about this? I really appreciate the suggestion from Mr. Choeumgok but I need more time to think about it.
She spoke euphemistically because she had something to teach.
In fact it was no different from rejection.
At this Hang Yeoliang let out a small snort.
She said ‘Do you think she can escape from Gokju?’
She has already decided to accept Mo Kyung-un as her disciple.
Therefore she planned to do whatever it took to make him beg to be accepted as her disciple.
-If you are thinking about the two kings I would say it is a foolish choice.
-What if it was a foolish choice?
-Myeongdo King Son Yun already has four disciples and one has been selected as a successor. Do you think you will be able to fully demonstrate your talents if you enter it?
-Ah… Is that so?
-Hehehe. From what I can see it looks like he has the King of Strength of Strength in mind. But do you know that?
-What are you talking about?
-The only disciple of King Byeokryeok’s right arm became crippled while learning his secret techniques.
‘Hmm.’
Hearing her words Mok Kyung-un stroked his chin.
In fact she hasn’t chosen anyone yet.
In the first place she was targeting the island’s poison king Baek Sa-ha but his original plan went awry because he did not attend.
However if what Choyingokju Hang Yeoliang said was true becoming the disciple of two kings might have been quite a hassle.
‘Is it internal competition or risk-taking?’
Either way it becomes difficult to choose.
However this information was just enough to exclude these two people.
Therefore Mok Kyung-un did not consider this to be anything more or less than information that should be used as a reference.
-yes. I will keep Gokju’s advice in mind.
-….
She tapped her chair with her finger at the words that seemed to draw her line.
This guy seems more stubborn than he looks.
Unless it was a final hurdle or a finale I wanted to take him by force right away and change his mental state to suit my taste.
The most annoying person was right across the podium.
King of Myeongdo Son Yun.
This is a person who goes out of his way to interfere with one’s own work.
However it is not that far away now.
When you reach the seventh stage which is the ultimate stage of Pakong sound music no one will be able to compete with you except for those two who have reached the state of harmony among the five kings.
Even King Myeongdo was no exception.
So she decided to change the method this time and try to comfort Mokgyeongun.
-Do you know why this Gokju said he only wanted to accept female children?
-….
-Unless there are really special cases this song only accepts female students as students. It doesn’t stop at disciples. Most of the people in this song are women.
-….
-If you become a disciple of Bon Gokju you will be able to enjoy the feeling of being the first emperor of Abang Palace. Isn’t it tempting?
-…I apologize.
Mok Gyeong-un flatly refuses her temptation.
‘Look at this guy.’
He must have been at such a vigorous age that he even turned down an offer like this?
Seeing this Hang Yeo-ryang the owner of Cho Yin Gok went beyond being stubborn and started to get a little irritated.
Originally she had a very unruly temperament so she didn’t persuade anyone and do things like this.
If she liked it she just took it by force.
‘It keeps coming out like this.’
Her patience was reaching its limit but she decided to hold on one last time.
-It looks like you’re learning swordsmanship. If that’s the case wouldn’t it be better to become Gokju’s disciple?
-…What do you mean by that?
– King Myeongdo and Lord Amjong are masters of Taoist techniques and King Byeokryeokkwon is a master of Jeoksugongkwon as in the byeolho. Looking at the confrontation it seems like what you mainly practiced was swordsmanship.
She considered the latter to be more complete among the boxing and sword techniques of Mok Gyeong-un in her martial arts.
In that respect Mok Gyeong-un guessed that she was probably mainly trained in swordsmanship.
At that time Mok Kyung-un spoke.
-As far as I know Gokju mainly learned umgong.
-Hehehe. Although this is certainly true he is a master of the sword as much as the music master of Gokju. I can assure you that if you learn Pagongyeongeom (派攻然劍) one of the two verses of this Gokju you will reach a higher level of swordsmanship.
‘Pagongyeongeom?’
Was she also skilled in swordsmanship?
However there was one thing that Hang Yeoliang did not know.
Mok Kyung-un said with a grin.
-Thank you for saying that but it’s okay for me not to be a swordsman.
She didn’t know it but Mo Kyung-un wasn’t devoted to the sword.
She intended to learn anything she deemed necessary.
However Mok Gyeong-un’s answer ultimately made her Hang Yeo-ryang angry.
-Wow!
‘The owner of this grain offers this much but he arrogantly continues to refuse.’
In that case giving carrots is over.
If carrots didn’t work sticks were the answer.
On the contrary it was convenient.
-This Gokju thinks so highly of you that he wants to accept you as his disciple. He is truly arrogant. It’s good to do it. In that case I guess I should accept the boy named Mok Yu-cheon who is currently competing with me as Sanha’s subordinate.
‘Mokyucheon?’
Mok Yu-cheon and Jusalgok Yeom-ga are dancing for a long time in the gymnasium in the middle of the square.
The two were almost fighting for a whistle.
Most of the executives were also watching their match with interest.
-I hear you say that child is your aura right?
Before the meeting King Won Byeong-hak upon hearing that the two had the same last name asked if they were brothers.
In response Sihyeolgokju Lee Ji-yeom seemed to think it was okay to tell him that much so he answered yes.
So she knew this.
-yes. Yes.
-okay. That kid looks really useful too. Isn’t that right?
-….
-If he’s a useful talent I should take him as a subordinate play with him appropriately and then kill him when he loses interest.
Mok Gyeong-un couldn’t help but laugh at her words.
She continued to refuse and revealed her intention so she was now blatantly threatening.
She talked back but she threatened to take your younger brother as her subordinate and kill him if you did not become her disciple.
‘Try to refuse again this time.’
She twitched her lip and stared at the crook of her neck with a malicious look in her eyes.
From the looks of it the fact that both brothers reached this point means they must have passed the gate by relying on each other.
This means that the friendship is that deep.
‘If you don’t want to let your brother die gokju’s disciple will obey you…’
-You can do whatever you want.
‘!?’
At the moment the sound of her neck ringing in her ears her expression which had been twitching her lips venomously soon froze.
Do whatever you want?
For a moment she couldn’t believe her own ears.
In response she said with anger in her voice.
-You seem to think that the Gokju you saw really can’t do that.
She had the temperament to do as she did.
How dare a cadet come out like that without listening to what he says?
good night. Then I really need to show it.
-You brought it all on yourself. Let’s see if you can come out with such confidence even after losing your brother.
-yes yes. You can do whatever you want.
-under! You guy…
-It’s okay to kill it and it’s okay to play with it and rip off its limbs to maim it. Anyway that is the heart of Gokju who took it as his subordinate.
-what?
-I’m so glad that my younger brother can make Gokju happy.
-Sigh!
He smiles while saying those words.
-….
For a moment she was not angry but rather dumbfounded.
What the hell is that guy?
Even though she was far away her face was visible to some extent because she had reached the pinnacle of perfection.
How can she laugh and say that it is okay to kill or maim her brother?
She deliberately pretended to be calm and didn’t show her head.
The face looks like it really doesn’t matter.
‘…Is that guy really sane?’
