Episode 9: Goo Yeo (犰狳) (3)
Unlike vengeful spirits who cannot be contacted or recognized because they do not have a physical body in the first place there are evil beasts among the imamangryangs that have substance.
Being tangible means you can literally touch it.
However even with that said Imae Mang-ryang’s white spirit which is a collection of negative energy is a uremic poison itself that is harmful to living humans so it was difficult for even trained practitioners to touch it with their bare hands.
But surprisingly Mo Qingyun caught Gu Yeo with his bare hands.
‘Is it okay?’
As Bangsak who treated Gu Yeo as a food spirit he couldn’t help but feel embarrassed.
Why?
Touching urinary poison itself is painful.
But Mok Gyeong-un didn’t look like that at all.
-Click!
‘this!’
Sak who was embarrassed came to his senses for a moment when he heard Gu Yeo’s voice in pain.
Sak quickly took out the amulet from his pocket.
It was a talisman of the Chinese Rosary.
– Steadily!
He quickly made a hand sign with his left hand and recited the incantation.
“Okje rules Shinmukjaja Hyeongyeowunmu command composition Shinmuk horse racing Byeokryeok rule salary rule!”
(Going to Shinmuk at the command of the Jade Emperor it is like clouds and fog and the composition is aligned. If you go lightly to Shinmuk it brings down a thunderbolt in a chaotic world. Act quickly like a commandment.)
The spell was almost over.
-Pachichichichi!
“Wow!”
Blue flames flew around the hand holding Gu Ye and a strong convulsion occurred in Mo Qingyun’s body.
A small amount of brain power flows through the body of every human being.
The amulet of Chik Rosary temporarily increases brain power paralyzing the subject’s nerves and causing muscle spasms.
“Guy!”
Sak believing that Mok-gyeong-un would not be able to move due to the electric shock tried to steal the food spirit Gu-yeo.
however
-Whoosh!
-Kakakakakak!
Gu Yeo suffered even more.
What’s going on?
‘The rosary didn’t work. Could it be because you learned martial arts?’
Ordinary people unless they had an unusual constitution were able to use magic to some extent well.
However perhaps because the martial arts people know how to manipulate energy there were some cases where amulets or magic themselves did not work.
Sak thought that it was because Mok Gyeong-un was from a shaman family so he naturally learned internal skills.
Of course contrary to this assumption Mok Gyeong-un did not survive through internal strength.
‘You’re lucky.’
It wasn’t intentional.
Although it was only for a moment Mo Qingyun was unable to move due to the electric shock.
However even at that moment of electric shock he was still conscious and the brain power that had temporarily increased in his body rushed to his right hand.
Without missing that moment Mo Gyeong-un released the gathered brain energy at Gu Ye.
-Kakakakakak!
That was why Gu Yeo suffered.
‘Guy!’
As her shikigami became more and more distressed she became impatient and tried to use another technique.
Sak lifted her wrists.
On the wrists of both her arms were a heavenly cow and a earthly cow.
-Cholak!
Sak pulled her talisman from her belt.
It was an amulet with the inscription “Doubu (斗牛符).”
As she held the end of this talisman in her mouth she made the seal of her Cheongcheon doctrine.
-Good!
‘Myeonwooshincharyeokbeop’
This was a method of temporarily doubling one’s strength by memorizing Myeonwoosinchaju.
This method was designed by excellent swordsmen to compete with monsters and imamangryangs.
When used it can exert tremendous power.
“Fengqing Bukdu Daeryeoksan Cheonwoojiuduwugun Sixth Army Commander Sixty-five Great Powers Jin Geon-gon Geuncheong Hundred Thousand Thousands of Great Powers Isan Dohae Mugung Ipgohyeong…..”
“Demon horse!”
“Huh?”
-Papak!
As she was chanting her spell she hurriedly leaned back.
Before she knew it her demonic spirit had appeared wielding her own skull prayer beads with her head as if it were her weapon.
She gritted her teeth and bit her lip.
‘Emperor… When?’
I had forgotten because I was so focused on cultivating her neck.
She wasn’t in a good condition so she didn’t really think it would be a bother.
-Srurr!
But now it looks like the condition has improved a lot.
The scars on her body were almost gone.
‘weird.’
Even if it is a disembodied spirit it will not recover so quickly.
She was doubtful but right now the priority was to take the shikigami out of her Mok Kyung-un’s hands…..
It was that moment.
-Kakakakakak!
It was Gu Yeo’s scream.
Surprised she looked at Gu Yeo who had been caught.
However Gu Yeo who seemed fine just a moment ago had become quite thin.
Sak saw this and realized something was wrong.
‘Gu? ‘What is this?’
He’s just holding his hand around her neck but why is Gu Yeo her imamangryang so sweet?
But he was gradually getting thinner.
Her heart became impatient so she took out a wooden dagger with an amulet attached to it from her waist and tried to throw it at her neck.
however
-Srurr!
The demonic horse blocked his path.
In response Sak ran to her side made a hand sign with one hand and recited her incantation.
“Ilwolyuryang Yeogwidong Ojisogu Mubulyeoui…..”
But that was before I could even memorize it all.
“Huh!”
Sak clutched her chest in great pain.
She immediately realized where her pain was coming from and looked at her neck and Gu Yeo.
“Nine nine!”
Her dark eyes were shaking like crazy.
Gu Yeo who was a very wealthy person was so thin that he was almost skinny.
She was letting out a moan of pain as if she was on the verge of losing her breath.
-Cock….Cock…..
She couldn’t understand the situation.
It’s strange for an ordinary human to catch Immaengryang with his bare hands but he’s not using magic or magic so why does something like this happen?
“Stop it!”
She shouted hurriedly.
Mok Gyeong-un who was clutching Gu Yeo’s neck as her skin was drying out and her bones were becoming close to each other did not pretend to listen.
Rather she had a face that seemed absorbed in something.
The only one who could guess why Mo Kyung-un was doing this was Cheong-ryeong.
-under!
It was clearly visible in her eyes.
The energy of Guyeo who is Imaemangyang was being absorbed by the clothing consciousness.
The yogi (妖氣) that constitutes her nine qualities is a negative energy that is opposite to good health and therefore contains the energy of death.
‘There are a lot more.’
It was just a means to capture Gu Yeo.
However when he absorbed her energy through clothing Mok Gyeong-un realized at once.
A much greater amount of death energy was contained within this imamangryang than when killing a single human being.
At this rate I didn’t even know if I could secure enough to form a Danjeon at once.
So it continued to absorb Guyeo’s energy.
Gu Yeo who can control insects but is otherwise an idiot and has no special physical abilities had no way of escaping from the ritual.
-Wow….
Gu Yeo who had absorbed all the energy was on the verge of losing her breath.
It was right then.
-thud!
Her mother knelt on the floor and cried out to Mok Kyung-un in a heartbreaking voice.
“Please let the child go.”
Her Gu Yeo was her precious food soul to her.
She couldn’t bear to lose her food spirit who had been her family for four years like this.
Sak shouted.
“If you let me go I will give up her request!”
At those words Mok Gyeong-un paused for a moment in her dressing ceremony and turned her head towards her.
And then she looked at her with curious eyes.
‘Are you giving up just because of something like this?’
It was unexpected.
It wasn’t even a human it was an imamangryang.
She didn’t know that she would fall to her knees like this just to save her food spirit.
‘Hmm.’
Is this new snout so precious?
Her tired smiling neck suddenly looked at her and opened her mouth.
“Did you say it was a request?”
“is it so.”
“Whose request is this?”
‘ah!’
For a moment she thought Oops.
In her haste she decided to give up on her request.
The most important thing about this job was that she had to keep quiet about her client until the end.
She did but she made a mistake.
“I ask again. “Whose request is this?”
“that…”
Trust was also important here.
Violating this means…
“It seems like there is no particular desire to save this. then…..”
When Mok Gyeong-un tried to perform the dressing ceremony again Sak who hesitated finally answered.
“Mrs. Seok….the great lady of the Yeonmok Sword Master here requested it.”
Mok Kyung-un chuckled at her words.
She guessed because it was obvious who had commissioned it anyway.
She was just asking to confirm.
“It’s as expected.”
“…..”
Sak’s expression darkened perhaps because she felt ashamed at revealing her client.
Mok Gyeong-un asked her again.
“Do you know the person named Myoshin?”
“…”
-Kak!
Then Gu Yeo who was barely able to breathe began to suffer again.
Sak said startled by this sight.
“That’s right!”
“The response is slower than I expected. From now on if I don’t get an answer I’ll just handle this.”
-Wow!
Sak gritted his teeth at Mok Gyeong-un’s words.
Although she was young she had a long career as a radiographer so this was the first time in her life that she had experienced this.
Being threatened like this with a food body is like this.
If her footnotes or others found out about this she would laugh at it but as she had no family her salvation and money were all she had in life.
“Answer… I will answer well so please don’t do that.”
“We’ll see. Then I will continue to ask questions so please answer them. If you received a request did you receive money?”
“yes.”
“How much did you get?”
“A thousand silver coins.”
“I received a lot.”
“…..”
“What is the exact request?”
“The third Confucius Mo Gyeong-un was possessed by a strange spirit and killed someone so he was asked to be forcibly removed from office.”
“I don’t think that’s all.”
“He said it didn’t matter if he lost his life during the ceremony. And…I asked to get a non-emergency letter from you.”
“aha.”
Mok Kyung-un chuckled.
That’s also true then.
She believed that dealing with food spirits was an unknown power so she did not do anything unreasonable and probably requested another master.
Mo Qingyun stared at her.
Then she asked.
“Do you have any other colleagues?”
Sak who thought about the question for a moment quickly answered.
“…there is.”
I was thinking about saying no but I answered because I thought Mok Gyeong-un would not be hasty in doing something if he knew that there were other masters besides him.
Would that guess have been correct?
“Hmm. “You say you have colleagues… So do they know that you are doing this job now?”
“Everyone knows.”
She said it was good so she spoke right away.
She thought that if she knew it was a group she would be more careful in her neck cultivation.
And that prediction seemed to have come true to some extent.
“It’s become quite annoying.”
She found neck tillage quite a nuisance given that she had her colleagues and they all knew what she was doing.
After killing her Myōshin her other emanations came from her.
Then even if she died there was a high probability that another radiation would come to her.
“Do you know that the target of the request is me?”
“is it so.”
“Hmm.”
Seeing this aspect of Mok Gyeong-un Sak thought that if he did well things could work out well.
He promised to give up the request but this man was very dangerous.
I can’t tell for sure because Baek’s eye was injured but it seemed like he was really dealing with this man’s vengeful spirit and not being possessed by it.
‘…Are you really using me as a food spirit?’
It was truly impossible to use a vengeful spirit as a food spirit.
We’ll have to discuss with each other what to do in the future but right now we just have to hope that this man will let go of Gu Yeo his food spirit and himself for fear of Hu Huan.
Then Mok Gyeong-un who was stroking his chin with his hand opened his mouth.
“This really can’t be helped.”
‘ha.’
At those words she internally breathed out her relief.
I’m so glad…
-Wow!
-Kakakakak!
At that moment Gu Yeo screamed and was in pain.
Sak shouted in panic.
“I answered in full but why are you doing that?”
“Ah… No matter how much I think about it I think other emanations will come one way or another whether they let you go or not. “Isn’t it?”
“…..”
Sak could not bear to answer this question.
Even if I wanted to fool him this man was so clever that it was difficult to fool him.
“I guess it’s true because there’s no answer.”
Mok Kyung-un said with a grin.
“Then say goodbye to this new snout.”
With those words Mok Gyeong-un performed the ritual of wearing clothes and tried to absorb the remaining energy of her Gu Yeo.
At that moment Sak shouted her eyes turning red.
“stop! stop! “I’ll do anything so please don’t kill that kid!”
In response to her plea Mok Kyung-un raised the corner of her mouth slyly.
* * *
The front yard of Hyehwadang.
Mrs. Seok was waiting impatiently with her back behind her.
She had to make sure she got it done this time.
If that arrogant bastard Mok Gyeong-un had really stuck with the second son Mok Eun-pyeong and handed over the special order the situation could have turned around.
That’s why I hoped that Sak would solve the problem well.
“lady. The wind is cold outside. “Why don’t you go inside and wait?”
Sohwa one of her maids spoke to her.
Mrs. Seok shook her head.
“You said you knew what was going to happen?”
If an emergency occurred I planned to take care of her right away.
If that doesn’t work shouldn’t we make it so that everyone can’t have it?
That was the car.
“lady. “There is radiation coming from there.”
Guard warrior Hoang pointed toward the entrance to Hyehwadang.
A spindle was visible there.
“iced coffee!”
Mrs. Seok’s face brightened at the sight of her being safe.
That means the request appears to have been successful.
“I salute you ma’am.”
“Don’t get excited.”
When she got to the front yard of Hyehwadang she thought she would go inside and quickly ask how she completed her work and whether she had obtained the secret certificate.
But as she came over the entrance to her pavilion she stopped on her way.
Mrs. Seok looked puzzled at this.
She watched to see something and saw Bangsak taking out something that looked like an amulet from her arms.
‘What are you doing?’
Finally perhaps out of frustration she couldn’t bear it anymore and gestured for her to come and said.
“What are you doing there? Come here and talk…”
Before she could finish speaking Bangsak shouted loudly.
“Ma’am Goddess. We Gui Ying Pavilion cannot kill Confucius Mo Qingyun as you requested!”
‘!!!!!!’
She shouted so loudly that even Lady Seok and her maids the guard Musa Hoang could not hide their embarrassment.
What on earth is this?
‘This bitch is crazy.’
But it didn’t end there.
“Confucius Mu Qingyun was not accused of strange things! Please do not make any more requests like this to this office! “If you request it…”
With those words Bangsak made a hand sign and recited a spell.
“Oryeong Yeoroe Haenghangyeojeon the dead sea that haunted just a breath of air Ji Sohyang Lee….”
Hoang the guard warrior who felt something was wrong urgently tried to use his new weapon to catch Bangsak.
It was that moment.
“Huh!”
“crane!”
The two maids that Lady Seok had brought from her parents’ house were clutching her breasts as if they were in pain.
Her face turned dark red and soon the veins on her forehead swelled to the point of bursting.
