Episode 1197 How on earth did you survive this? (2)
It may be a stereotype, but why isn’t there such a thing?
A general expectation when the head of a group or organization changes and a young person takes his place.
Of course, there are concerns, but if there are no problems in the process, it is normal to expect the vitality and broad aspirations that new young blood will bring.
But this…
Tanggunak’s eyes trembled.
‘My uncle in Sacheon must be much more energetic than these guys.’
He is now so old that his mind goes back and forth, but isn’t he still better than a sick chicken?
What makes his stomach ache even more is that Deputy Jang Moon, whose handsome face looks ugly, is the one who heated up Tanggunak’s heart in a confrontation with the court not long ago.
No matter how you look at volcanoes, you can’t tell. I can’t figure it out…’
Cheongmyeong, who goes back and forth between being a terrible swordsman and a crazy idiot, or Baekcheon, who goes back and forth between Baekcheon, the loyal next doorman who is highly anticipated by Hwasan, and Dongryong, the neighborhood idiot brother…. .
The thought of having to discuss the great and small affairs of Cheon Woo-maeng with these guys in the future was already a bittersweet feeling for Hyeonjong’s empty seat.
“So… that…”
Unable to keep his mouth shut, Tanggunak opened his mouth hesitantly.
“I heard you created this place?”
“Yes?”
“You mean this place?”
“…I am.”
“……”
At that time, Tang Gunak realized. Why is violence so rampant in Hwasan?
If you live with these guys, wouldn’t it be natural for fists to speak before words?
“Ah… Ah, that’s right. .I……. Yes, I did.”
“……”
“So the reason I gathered you all together is…”
Baekcheon tilted his head.
“…Why?”
And at that moment, Tang Gunak saw.
Cheongmyeong’s face, which had been alternating between anger and depression, was literally contorted like a murderer. I can assure you, Tang
Gunak had never seen such a scary sight in his life. Even if the Heavenly Demon descended before his eyes, something like this was not possible. You will not feel fear.
“…There was a reason.”
“Hey!”
The moment Cheongmyeong rolled his eyes and started convulsing, Ogum, who had been waiting in advance, jumped up and covered his mouth and pressed his body against him as if he had been waiting. Even Hyeyeon, who usually clicked her tongue behind his back, was shocked and attacked Cheongmyeong with a bald head
. He pressed his chest and sagged,
“Cheongmyeong! It’s a long story, a long story!”
“Other people are watching!”
“mouth! Shut your mouth! “If you say something wrong here, you will be taken to the real repentance room!”
“Hold it right there!”
Tanggunak, who was watching this in bewilderment, unconsciously covered his face with both hands and lowered his head.
‘Is it really okay?’
Wouldn’t it be better to join hands with Gufile Bang now? Even the families who were vehemently opposed to it see this with their own eyes. Isn’t Shaolin still a prestigious family that boasts history and tradition? I think I’ll run towards Seongsan without looking back.
At that moment, Yu I-seol patted Baek-cheon’s dazed head and held out a water bottle filled with cold water to Baek-cheon.
“drink.”
“……ah.”
Baekcheon’s face gradually regained its color after drinking cold water in one go.
In a way, it was a truly amazing sight. It was just a matter of controlling the unruly facial expressions, but that alone made the person look different.
“sorry. “I’m in a bad state.”
“When was it better?”
“yes?”
“……No.”
Tanggunak bit his lip. It seems that those damn Hwasan bastards have picked up his habit of speaking. After he said all these things, Baekcheon cleared his throat softly and
opened his mouth.
“The reason why I invited several lords to come to see me is because Cheonwoomaeng is the best. “It’s to discuss what needs to be done first.”
“Discussion…”
Tanggunak, who was quietly thinking to himself, nodded slightly and said.
“I hope the meaning is accurate, Mr. Jangmun. Does that mean we should decide what to do first? Or do you mean, let’s discuss how to do something you have already decided on?”
“The meaning is closer to the latter.”
“Hmm.”
Tanggunak’s expression became slightly subtle.
If it were Hyeonjong, he wouldn’t have said this. Because Hyeonjong used to listen to other people’s opinions before deciding on something. But Baekcheon suggests that they discuss what he has already decided. .
You could pass it off as a difference in personality, but it was true that it felt a little uncomfortable.
At that time, Baekcheon said,
“Oh, please don’t misunderstand.”
“hmm?”
He must have sensed such signs of party evil and calmly elaborated.
“I am only Deputy Jangmun of Hwasan and not the leader of Cheonwoo Meng. What I want to tell you is that I am not acting as the leader of the Cheonwoo Alliance to make decisions on behalf of Hwasan, but I am simply presenting Hwasan’s opinion as Hwasan’s representative.”
“……hmm.”
“As always, the authority to make decisions lies with you, so please do not assume that what I say is your opinion.”
This meant that it was not a command from a high place, but a suggestion from a low place. If we look at it in detail, the actual status of Hwasan’s Jangmun Dae-ri was lower than that of the Tang family, which served as the vice-leader of the Cheonwoo Alliance, and was no different from that of other clans.
But……
“Mr. Jangmun. From our perspective, it is difficult to think like that. First of all, the leader and you belong to the same clan…”
“Will the leader give preference to our opinions?”
“…I understand.”
Tang Junak immediately nodded.
It might be anyone else, but Hyeonjong would never do that. Isn’t there any doubt about Hyeonjong’s fairness?
Moreover, at the same time that King Hyeonjong believed in his disciples to an absurd degree…
‘He was also the person who distrusted his disciples the most in the world.’
To be precise, it’s not that he doesn’t trust his disciples, but rather that he’s the one who best understands their madness… Anyway.
So things like paying closer attention to Hwasan’s opinions won’t happen.
“But if that happens, Hwasan will have no choice but to be treated as a sect with the same right to speak as other sects. “Is that okay?”
“Isn’t it natural?”
Baekcheon answered immediately as if there was nothing to think about.
“It should have been that way. That’s because it means blindness. The reason why Hwasan seemed to be leading Cheonwoo-maeng until now was simply because the leader of Cheonwoo-maeng was also serving as Hwasan’s general. If the head of the family ascends to the position of leader, the party family will play that role.”
“Hmm.”
“Hwasan has no intention of demanding any privileges from Cheonwoo Meng. “Isn’t the ideal we have established based on equality for all?”
The corners of Tang Gunak’s mouth rose slightly without me realizing it.
‘Sure…’
The reason people are said to be detached from power is usually when they are not attached to the power they can have. Ultimately, this means that no matter how detached a person is from power, it is not easy to let go of the power one already enjoys.
Power means comfort.
Is there any need to reject the comfort given and admit discomfort? If you don’t criticize anyone, there is no need to do so.
But now, Baekcheon is saying that Hwasa will quietly let go of the superior rights and position that he implicitly had in Cheonwoomaeng.
It may have been possible because he was young, but even so, it was true that he looked amazing.
“Is that what the volcano thinks?”
“Yes, matriarch.”
“Hmm. That’s a good thing. Young people are definitely different.”
Tang Gunak, who nodded, suddenly made a strange expression and said,
“But that’s it.”
“yes.”
“…It seems like there is someone who has a different opinion than you?”
“Yes?”
At those words, Baekcheon glanced next to me.
“Eup! Eup!”
Cheongmyeong, who had been crushed by the five swords, was shaking with bloodshot eyes. Those two eyes, full of resentment and hatred, seemed to be saying, ‘How did you get that right, and are you giving it away as you please? You bastard, bastard! Get the hell out of the volcano. !’ It felt like I was shouting,
“Uuuuuuu!”
“Stay still!”
“Someone go get a rope, quickly!”
“Would you like me to give you a handjob?”
“Not a copper rope, but an iron rope! “What are we going to do by tying this bastard up with rope?”
“No, where can I get an iron rope right now…”
Oh-geom desperately pressed down on Cheong-myeong, who was shaking. As Baekcheon stared at the strange yet terrifying scene, a bitter smile appeared on his lips.
“Matriarch.”
“Hmm?”
Baekcheon, who quickly took his gaze away, looked at Tanggunak and spoke in a very relaxed tone.
“You don’t have to worry about it.”
“…Is that so?”
“yes. I am speaking now as the representative of Hwasan. However, it is difficult to understand why you are concerned about the reaction of ‘one’ three great disciples.”
“Cook cough.”
Tanggunak, who had lost consciousness for a moment, shook his body violently and coughed.
“This one third generation disciple?”
“Never mind. It is just one of the three great disciples that are widespread in Huashan. “At least he knows how to use a sword, so we let him attend, but he’s just one of the three great disciples and has absolutely nothing to do with Hwasan’s official position, so you can just pretend he’s not there.”
“Uh…”
Which is more important, the opinion of me, who represents Jang Mun-in of Hwasan, or that of a ‘mere’ three great disciples?” “
That’s right… No, that’s okay… “It’s true that it has to be that way…”
“Haha. Isn’t it so obvious?”
Tanggunak saw it. Baekcheon asked softly, glanced at Cheongmyeong and smiled.
Seeing that face, Cheongmyeong started convulsing. Then, it soon started to bubble up into pure white crab foam.
“Gurgling…”
Cheongmyeong made a strange sound, rolled his eyes and moved on, and soon the room became quiet. The intermittent twitching and convulsions seemed to have gone very far away.
‘Is it okay to be like this?’
Of course you’re right. No matter how long and powerful the Hwasan Sword Association is, in terms of status, they are only the three greatest disciples of Hwasan. In terms of formality and principles, it is normal for people to not have the right to speak in a situation like this.
‘But it’s still the Hwasan Sword Association?’
Is this really okay?
“I’m not speaking as one of the three great disciples, but as a representative of Hwasan’s long list…”
“Huh?”
“The most important thing that Chunwoomaeng should do now is to carry out the agreement and make it clear that it is different from the old faction.”
“I guess so.”
“Therefore, Hwasan proposes to the other lords that they immediately allocate their personnel and depart for Haenam. “The goal is to complete preparations as quickly as possible, within no more than three days, and reach Haenam through Gangnam.”
“I… that’s a bit urgent…”
“Please only join those who are confident in their martial arts skills. “If no one joins, Hwasan will head to Haenam alone.”
There was silence. After finishing speaking, Baekcheon grinned.
“That is all.”
At that moment, Tanggunak realized. The fact that the court wasn’t the only target of this crazy long-winded deputy.
Tanggunak’s stomach began to ache again.
