<Episode 84: Reign (2)>
Master Daedeok of Gyeyulwonju a member of the Shaolin Three Monks.
He currently holds the third rank in the Shaolin Temple but in reality he is only a year or two different from the previous monks so it can be said that his level of inner strength is similar.
He learned the Sesu Jin-gyeong (洗髓眞經) and the Mahayana Brahma Shingong (大乘凡 天神功) and it was no exaggeration to say that among all the Jeongsa warriors there was no one other than the Six Thousand and Eight Stars in terms of inner work.
However he was pushed out in the competition by a rookie whose name was not even known and who looked to be in his mid-twenties at most.
‘Huh. ‘That’s amazing.’
‘You overwhelmed Daedeok with your air power?’
Even the fellow Shaolin monks Master Janggyeonggakju and Master Wuseong couldn’t help but admire this.
I had predicted to some extent that Mok Gyeong-un was not an ordinary expert but who would have predicted that I a Shaolin expert known for being the purest and most solid in terms of internal skills would be ahead of an expert?
-Ssssss!
At that time a haze rose from the hands and shoulders of Master Daedeok of Gyeyulwonju.
This was a phenomenon that occurred while relieving the other person’s energy.
‘Air power is also aerodynamic power but it is a strange energy.’
The moment I touched it some of my energy dissipated.
This phenomenon would have been even more severe if it were not for the inner strength of Shaolin which is full of purity.
-closely!
Ambassador Daedeok bit his lip without realizing it.
Although he was said to have practiced Buddhism for a long time it was difficult for him to tolerate this as his temperament was more sensitive than that of other high-ranking monks.
‘How can such a disgrace exist?’
It was extremely shameful in front of Shaolin’s disciples.
However as his Majesty he had the pride to show this openly so Ambassador Daedeok tried to control his expression and spoke.
“Amitabha Buddha. “I don’t think the young poet’s skills are average.”
“Nosim despite the fact that you’ve been practicing your skills for a long time your skills are weak.”
“…..”
Master Daedeok’s earlobes trembled as he heard Mok Gyeong-un’s words.
The young guy is deliberately provoking himself.
He seemed to do that because he had already judged that he was superior in terms of internal strength.
Ambassador Daedeok was inwardly angry at this but kept his composure.
‘Whoa.’
Being pushed back in terms of internal strength did not mean complete defeat but it could not be denied that the probability of defeat was significantly higher if they faced each other one-on-one again.
Therefore Ambassador Daedeok believed that the only answer was to force the situation rather than direct confrontation.
“dole. I knew very well that your martial arts skills were not average. However no matter how much it is this is not something that can be tolerated right now. “Release the military officer immediately.”
“iced coffee. “This person?”
Mok Gyeong-un pointed with his eyes at Ganghak the deputy leader of the demonstration who was holding the back of his neck in his hand.
“I see.”
“well. Why should I do that?”
Master Daedeok was inwardly delighted at Mok Gyeong-un’s words.
okay. I was just grateful that they came out like that.
If you are faithful to the role of a villain you can go in the opposite direction.
Master Daedeok raised his voice by taking the form of Sogeumgang Sansu (小金 强酸手) towards Mok Gyeong-un.
“Amitabha Buddha. “I was dubious because they called me a high treason criminal but are you really going to take me hostage like this and do what I want?”
-Roaring!
The reactions of the monks at Nahangak who were watching this call from Master Daedeok changed quite a bit.
Until now opinions were divided among the Shaolin monks with high distribution and they did not know what to do.
However it was different when a hostage was taken in the middle of Shaolin.
-Rurrrrrr!
The monks around them moved all at once.
Then eighteen monks surrounded Mo Gyeong-un struck the eighteen Arhat camp and aimed their batons at him.
“dole. Release the hostages immediately!”
When one of the monks shouted Master Daedeok could barely stop his lips from twitching.
It worked as intended.
Because Shaolin monks are Buddhist disciples they always worry about right and wrong.
It was a common problem for all monks young and old as it was a lifelong study.
However if only a clear justification for justice is given they change.
‘Siju…You can never escape from here.’
You might not know if you were dealing with just one person but dealing with Shaolin was different.
Even if he is an unrivaled expert who has overcome the wall if Shaolin decides to step forward he will never let down his guard and it is difficult to even guarantee a victory.
Then it happened.
-closely!
“Oh my.”
Mok Gyeong-un said while firmly grabbing Gang Hak’s neck.
“I guess you don’t know the meaning of hostage. “If you act like this I think the hand holding your neck will have no choice but to become even stronger.”
“How!”
Anger filled the eyes of the Arhat monks who were surrounded by Mo Gyeong-un’s threats.
For them taking hostages was cowardice itself.
At that time Master Daedeok of Gyeyulwonju spoke loudly.
“If the Lord of the Lord is such a coward there is nothing I can do about it. Arhat monks surround them immediately.”
“bout!!!!”
The Arhat monks who were waiting for the command of Master Daedeok shouted at the same time and surrounded Mok Gyeong-un’s subordinates Mongmu Yak Seopchun Marahyeon Apostolic Monk Jaejeong and Seonghwaryeongju.
Beside them was the beast Heumwon and 64 Arhat monks surrounded them and formed a siege.
“Daedeok Ambassador! “What are you doing now?”
Similarly in response to a similar threat to his colleagues Ambassador Museong of Jeonju near the station urged him.
Then Ambassador Daedeok snorted and said.
“How long are you planning to keep dragging me around making promises and all when that wicked vassal has even taken you hostage? The ambassador is please come to your senses!”
“line!”
“Hangman monks subdue the monsters so that no harm comes to the Arhat monks!”
Master Daedeok ignored Master Museong’s words and gave orders to the monks.
However unlike the Arhat monks who had their way none of the Hangma monks moved.
In response Ambassador Daedeok raised his voice.
“How can you stay still?”
Then someone staggered out from among the horseback riders.
The man whose robes were covered in blood due to injuries was none other than Hangmagakju.
“Amitabha Buddha. Cluck cluck. Theravadas cannot do that.”
“What?”
“Cough… I’m sorry but the donor succeeded in making a treaty with Yeokgeungyeong Jeonju.”
“Hangma footnote! “What does that have to do with it now?”
“It matters. Cluck cluck. That savior saved my life and the lives of the horseback riders from a rampaging monster. But since we have received a favor and cannot repay it how could we break the agreement?”
“under!”
Ambassador Daedeok of Gyeyulwonju was dumbfounded by this rejection of anti-magakju.
If they the anti-demons did not help it would be difficult to subdue the monster so sacrifices could have occurred.
‘Hangma Footnote: Why be stubborn at times like this?’
Ambassador Daedeok who was embarrassed by his rejection of the order soon gritted his teeth.
It was too late to turn the situation around anyway.
If there was a way to maintain discipline and preserve the honor of Shaolin it had to be done even if it meant some sacrifice.
‘No matter how stubborn you are you will have no choice but to step forward if the monks become dangerous.’
Accordingly Master Daedeok gave an order to the Arhat monks.
“The Arhat monks hurry up and kill the high treasonous criminals…..”
That was before the words were even finished.
“Amitabha Buddha! “Everyone stop!”
At that time Master Museong of Yeokgeungyeongjeonju shouted in a voice like a lion’s hooter.
All the monks frowned at the booming voice filled with energy that resonated in their eardrums.
Marahyeon inwardly stuck out her tongue at the cry that rang out like an echo.
‘He is said to be the best of the three monks of Shaolin and has great skill.’
What was even more surprising was that although the sound was full of energy no one was injured.
This meant that Master Wu Sheng had reached a state of mastery in handling real energy.
Master Daedeok of Gyeyulwonju who was surprised by the sudden shout of Ambassador Museong opened his mouth.
“How can I say this…”
“Daedeok be quiet.”
“…..”
At his strong voice Ambassador Daedeok closed his mouth with a hardened expression on his face.
As he held the position of a provincial governor and then rose to the position of prefectural governor Master Museong who recognized his position always called him ambassador despite his high rank.
However calling him by his legal name like this gave us an idea of how uncomfortable he was feeling right now.
I wasn’t the only one who felt this.
All the Shaolin monks in the hall also seemed to have felt the same way about Master Museong so their eyes were focused on him.
Then Master Museong put his hands together looked at Mok Gyeong-un and opened his mouth.
“Amitabha Buddha. “First I would like to apologize to the donors.”
‘!!!!!!’
Ambassador Daedeok was surprised by this and tried to dissuade him.
“line…..”
“Daedeok told me to be quiet.”
“…..”
After receiving two consecutive warnings Ambassador Daedeok eventually kept his mouth shut and put his hands together.
If the next room leader and the person with the highest distribution was this strong no matter how stubborn he was he couldn’t be stubborn.
When he closed his mouth the voiceless ambassador continued his speech.
“Even though we made a treaty with the lords this situation happened because of the poor monk’s wealth.”
“line!”
At those words sighs broke out here and there.
No matter how much they promised they didn’t think there was any need to humble themselves that much if they were high traitors enough to break out a prisoner in the imperial palace.
However it was difficult to understand even the most famous voiceless line when it came out like this.
It was then.
“Off. Indeed Shaolin is trying to protect high treason criminals….”
-closely!
“evil!”
“It’s noisy.”
When Kang-hak the deputy governor of the city tried to vent his anger Mok Gyeong-un grabbed his throat to prevent him from speaking.
In that state Mok Kyung-un smiled and said.
“Thank you for saying that. If we do so will you send us away with the monsters as promised?”
“Amitabha Buddha. dole.”
“yes.”
“I’m sorry but I can’t do that anymore.”
“Why?”
“Binseung is the leader of Shaolin and a disciple of Shaolin. Now that the situation has come to this point we cannot just let the donors go. “This comes from a difference in position so there is nothing you can do about it even if you blame the poor monk.”
‘Of course it is.’
I wondered if they were just going to let them go when the situation had come to this point but when Ambassador Museong changed his stance despite his apology Ambassador Daedeok from Gyeyulwonju was secretly delighted.
No matter how upright a voiceless ambassador may be in a situation like this he would not be able to act stubbornly and pretend to be loyal.
If you arbitrarily let them go not only will you be at odds with the imperial palace but it will also give them an excuse to search.
Furthermore if there is even a rumor in the martial arts world that the high treason criminal was let go the reputation of Shaolin will hit rock bottom.
“Well in the end North-sama is of the same opinion as that North-sama over there.”
As soon as he finished speaking a sound came into Mok Gyeong-un’s ears.
-Amitabha Buddha. That’s not it.
Mok Gyeong-un’s eyes caught a glimpse of this as he heard the sound.
Come to think of it Hang Yeo-ryang the Choeumgokju who taught him this seems to have said that this was the only one among the martial arts in Shaolin that could do this.
Then Ambassador Museong said:
-Don’t be surprised. dole. This is to convey the voice of the benefactor so that only the donor can hear it.
-I know.
Mok Gyeong-un answered this with a telephonic tone.
Then Ambassador Museong responded as if he was surprised without showing it.
-The Lord surprises Binseung in many ways.
