Episode 925 Wow, you really have no shame. (5)
The room was filled with such silence that you could almost hear a pin drop. Even though the number of people filling this room was not that small, not even the sound of breathing could be heard.
Everyone just looked at Cheongmyeong and the court with bated breath.
‘Oh my god…’
Baekcheon clenched his fists without realizing it.
I definitely expected it to some extent.
It has already been proven many times that Cheongmyeong does not have a favorable opinion of the court, and with this incident, the ill-feeling has reached its peak. Therefore, Cheongmyeong guessed that no matter how much the other party was the court, they would not give in easily.
But…
‘No matter what, the opponent is the head of Shaolin.’
The North Star of Murim. Shaolin.
Is there a powerhouse who doesn’t admire that name? Baekcheon is also from Jongnam and lives in Hwasan, but to him, Shaolin was something sacred that could not be invaded.
However, the head of Shaolin, who represents that sacred place, is now unable to even refute the vitriol poured out by his followers and is keeping silent.
Who would have imagined that they would be able to see something like this in their lifetime?
I knew I should stop him, but I couldn’t open my mouth.
All Baekcheon could do now was hold his breath and try not to miss a single word of their conversation.
“Bin Seung…”
After a long silence, the court opened its mouth.
“I just didn’t think of it. If I had thought about it in advance, I would have gone to the Yangtze River. This is just…”
“Ah.”
Cheongmyeong cut off the courtroom with a short exclamation.
“I guess you went to the Yangtze River?”
“…That’s right….”
“You must have run to the Yangtze River and stopped the Namgung family from fighting against the Sapa, surrendered Maehwa Island to the Sapa, and once again suffered the humiliation of Shaolin submitting to the Sapa?”
“….”
A clear sneer appeared on the corner of Qingming’s mouth.
“you?”
The court closed its mouth again, which had been difficult to open.
I tried to say something, but it wouldn’t open, as if someone had forced my mouth shut.
I tried to answer that it was a reflex, but he felt it too.
That he never would have done that.
Would the Hwasan Sword Association believe something that even they themselves could not believe? Is there an author who seems to know the ins and outs of the court better than the court itself?
In the end, laughter came out of the courtroom’s mouth. This is not a situation where persuasion will work in the first place.
“It seems that the head of the room only studies the principles of Buddhism and does not know the principles of the world. If you do not know, I will tell you.”
Cheongmyeong said sarcastically.
“What you have done must be corrected by yourself.”
“….”
“It’s not like crying and complaining and asking someone else to run over and take care of it.”
At that moment, it was not the court but the legal world that Chimi could not control her anger. This was because it was difficult to tolerate the young Taoist monk daring to talk about the leader of Shaolin as if he were teaching a child.
“Isn’t that too much to say?”
As the legal world became angry, Cheongmyeong very slowly turned his head towards him. And looked straight at him and said.
“Are you passing by?”
At that moment, a voice came out of the court’s mouth. However, he soon composed himself and spoke softly, as if admonishing him.
“Of course it is true that Shaolin made a mistake. It’s true that I made a mistake. But isn’t the manager now trying to resolve the matter somehow? It is easy to place blame, but it is much more difficult to right a wrong. But how can you be so harsh?”
Then, Cheongmyeong stared at the dharma world in silence and let out a small exclamation.
“Oh, someone did it. “It’s our sphere, right?”
“….”
“At that time, we parted ways without even saying hello at Yangtze River. How you doing?”
“Keukheuhum.”
Beopgye’s face lit up in an instant. To him, the word Yangtze River was like an original sin that could never be washed away.
“It’s a repair. Soup…. Yes, everything you said is correct. But… So what have you been doing for the past three years that you’re now trying to fix? “If I had wanted to, I think I could have organized everything already, right?”
“Look!”
“Hmm, that’s really strange.”
Cheongmyeong shakes his head as if he doesn’t understand.
“Being a monk doesn’t mean you’re not human, but how can you be so shameless?”
“What are you saying…”
“Ah, I guess you don’t understand. Then let me tell you properly. “I told you to shut up.”
Beopgye, who was speechless, looked at Cheongmyeong with bewildered eyes.
I knew right away that the Hwasan Swordsman Association was the one who was just leaving. But who would have imagined that this would not happen? They say that if a person is too absurd, they can’t even speak, and that’s exactly what the legal world feels like now.
“A person who tries to correct a mistake is better than a person who only criticizes. That is correct. “But you’re so good at putting those words out of my mouth.”
“….”
“And what? “Repair?”
The court looks at Cheongmyeong with a pale complexion. I was afraid of what else would come out of his mouth.
“Does that mean you’re asking me to come here and fight with you?”
“….”
“I guess Shaolin calls that sort of thing a solution, right?”
The legal world bows its head.
Although it was rough, there was nothing wrong with Cheongmyeong’s words. In particular, the legal community, which is one of the main players in the Yangtze River disaster and is responsible for this entire situation, cannot say it out loud even if it has something to say.
This is because he also had the bare minimum of shame.
“Go back.”
“…the room manager.”
“That’s enough.”
The court quietly looked at Cheongmyeong.
The court, seeing the deep-rooted distrust toward Shaolin in those eyes, sighed deeply.
‘How did it end up like this?’
It cannot be denied that Hwasan is the sect that has shown the most cause-oriented actions in the world in recent years.
Doesn’t the fact that the Hwasan Sword Association, which is the center of such a volcano, show such deep-rooted distrust toward Shaolin speak to Shaolin’s current position?
But that didn’t mean I could leave like this.
“Shaolin…”
Uncharacteristically, after hesitating for a moment, the court made a small disapproval and continued.
“…It’s not perfect. “I’m not perfect either.”
“….”
“Those who are not perfect inevitably make mistakes. We can take the blame we deserve for our mistakes. But… I can’t stand innocent people suffering because of my and Shaolin’s mistakes.”
Cheongmyeong glared at the court with a cold gaze. Nevertheless, the court spoke steadfastly.
“Any conditions are good. Please help me just this once. “Without Cheon Yu-maeng, the Yangtze River would literally become a wind lamp.”
The court bowed once again.
A little while ago, he bowed his head towards Hyeonjong, but now he bowed his head towards Cheongmyeong, which was a little different.
Everyone watching bit their lips.
Cheongmyeong’s words are also correct. But now the court is really dropping everything and asking them for help. If the court had talked about the situation and what was right, no one would have been swayed by its words.
However, now the court did not present any logic and simply appealed in a humble manner. With that sincere appeal, not only Hyeonjong but also others were looking at the court with new eyes.
perhaps.
Isn’t the situation really so urgent that it can’t be resolved without their help? Otherwise, there would be no reason for the court to bow down and beg them.
Could the leader of Shaolin kneel and bow to a young disciple of Tamun just for the sake of preserving Shaolin’s power? Isn’t that right?
but.
Only one person’s eyes did not change at all. There was no change, not even shaking.
“The room manager hasn’t changed.”
The anger that had been boiling in Cheongmyeong’s voice disappeared. Now his words were just calm. However, strangely enough, since my emotions were not revealed, my stomach sounded even more frightening than the words I had poured out before.
“I was wrong and I regret it, but all of this is for the sake of all the people in the world and the suffering people, so please put aside your past mistakes and help me.”
The court flinched. Cheongmyeong was looking at him with piercing gaze.
“I guess you thought that if you just pretended to reflect and bowed your head like that, the thugs would get so angry that they would act as arrow catchers for you, right?”
“Dojo.”
“Now I know for sure.”
“….”
“The room manager is not a hypocrite. “That’s why I hate the head of the room.”
The court frowned.
What does it mean to say that you don’t like it because you’re not a hypocrite? Don’t you usually say no because you’re a hypocrite?
Cheongmyeong elaborated as if he fully understood the puzzlement.
“A hypocrite is someone who at least knows what they are doing. At least it means that he is aware that he is doing evil. But…”
Cheongmyeong’s frost-like gaze pierced the court.
“I’m not the room manager.”
“….”
“The manager is a person who has no doubts that he is doing the right thing. “He completely believes that he is a good person.”
As he spoke, Cheongmyeong gritted his teeth as if he was nauseated.
Yes, when I say hypocrite, I mean someone like Heo Do-jin. At least he is aware that he is a human being who can do evil for the benefit of his sect.
But it’s not a court.
The court does not doubt that it is right. No, even if he goes through hardships now, I have no doubt that he will eventually achieve the result of being right.
At this moment, the court must be convinced that persuading Huashan to participate in the Yangtze River War is the way to save the world.
I don’t hesitate because I believe I’m right.
Because he completely believes that he is right, he can even bow his head to a young person.
For him, bowing his head to Cheongmyeong is nothing more than a sacred process of reaching a perfect conclusion through his own sacrifice.
‘I had my doubts.’
Even as he fought for his life in the midst of the hell of 100,000 mountains, Cheongmyeong constantly doubted himself. Was this really the right way and did I really make the right choice?
Not only that, but also the hearing. No, everyone there must have doubted and doubted.
However, those who stood behind them and watched the deaths had no doubts. He must have been convinced that driving so many people into hell while talking about holy sacrifice was the right thing to do.
okay. Like the current court.
Although this type of person is unfortunate, it drives countless people to death. Even though she sheds tears, she never regrets it. Because they never doubt that they are doing the right thing.
“One time is enough.”
The momentum flowing from Cheongmyeong slowly pressured the court.
“It is too much to die by playing for such dirty sophistry, whether it is for the world or for the people. “It’s extremely excessive.”
That momentum does not come from inaction. If it was simply a result of inaction, the court would not have felt this burdensome.
The court could not even think of taking a breath in the face of the force of an unidentifiable, terrible weight.
“As long as I live, you better not think about using your three-inch tongue to exploit the volcano.”
Cheongmyeong’s soft declaration looked like a wounded beast growling.
“Get out of here right now. “Or I’ll break that proud neck.”
The color disappeared from the court’s faces.
