Episode 948 How can people do this? (2)
The word “opportunity” and “Jang Il-so” do not go well together. Rather, the author is a devil who takes away opportunities from others, plays with them, and plunges them into the deep abyss.
But who could not be swayed by the word ‘opportunity’?
The people in front of them had no choice but to listen to Jang Il-so’s words.
The wind that blew lightly disturbed Jang Il-so’s neat hair. White fingers lightly brushed up the flowing hair.
His mouth slowly began to open again.
“Isn’t it… so touching?”
Jang Il-so’s eyes slowly turned back. Even though it is clear that he cannot be seen because it is obscured by the high black dragon ship, it is as if he is trying to clearly tell us what the emotion he is talking about is.
The moment his gaze landed on Maehwa Island, some of Shaolin flinched and trembled. I still can’t look straight in that direction.
Jang Il-so, who turned his gaze back to So-rim, nodded as if he was amazed and continued speaking.
“Life is precious to everyone. But the authors say they will give up their own lives. For consultation and honor!”
A low, chuckling sound of laughter flowed through the river.
It was truly unknown. Since it was Jang Il-so who said those words, those words should have been meant as ridicule, but his tone was clearly filled with admiration. So, Shaolin, who is listening, is bound to be confused.
“Namgoong proved it. “The agreement they were crying out for did not just exist in words.”
I felt like I knew what it meant to be sucked into words. Jang Il-so’s every word captivated them.
But…
“Shut your mouth!”
It seems that the court could not just listen to Jang Il-so’s words. He burst out a large lion’s nose and cut off Jang Il-so’s words. However, there was clearly a sense of urgency as the lion’s husband was supposed to be married.
If I don’t stop Jang Il-so’s mouth right now, I’m going to be in big trouble.
“You are like a wicked devil! Shaolin disciples should not be deceived by the author’s words. “Keep your integrity!”
At those words, Shaolin’s disciples looked at the court.
Honest? What on earth did Jang Il-so say that makes him deceive them?
“You don’t understand.”
“This….”
“I should have told you. “I’m just trying to give you a chance.”
As Jang Il-so laughed softly, the face of Beop-gye, who was standing next to the court, became cruelly distorted. That hateful smile brought back memories of that day three years ago.
“What kind of opportunity are you giving us?”
“Dharma world!”
The court urgently tried to silence the legal community, but there was no way to take back what had been said.
And the corners of Jang Il-so’s red mouth widened as if he was waiting for those words to come out.
“A chance to prove… your agreement.”
The eyes of the courtroom were bloodshot.
“This…”
Clear tendons appeared on his neck, as if he couldn’t hide his anger.
But when Jang Il-so saw him, he smiled as if he was very happy.
“Hahahaha! “Why are you so angry, Master?”
Then he spread his arms wide and pointed backwards with an exaggerated gesture.
“ruler! “It’s over there.”
“….”
“Eradicate the evil spirit!”
The hem of his clothes fluttered as if dancing.
“Save the people! The people who risked their lives to protect that agreement are right there! “It’s right in front of you!”
It was uncomfortable because the tone was exaggerated, like a performance of a Peking opera, but it was also so that I couldn’t take my eyes off it. As his arm slowly lowered, the Shaolin monks also held their breath.
Jang Il-so slowly began to bring down the atmosphere that had been raised all at once. His eyebrows softened as if sad.
“But unfortunately… they are dying now.”
A deep sigh escaped from red lips.
“Those with deep injuries won’t be able to last long. With all your energy exhausted, you will be surrounded by a group of evil enemies and they will follow you one by one. “No matter how great the heroes are, if they are stranded on an island without a single grain of grain, the outcome will be obvious.”
The court holds the hem of the victory cloth tightly. As the inner force was pulled up, the hem of the clothes turned into powder, but the court did not even know that fact and was busy glaring at Jang Il-so as if he were going to kill him.
“But fortunately…”
At that time, Jang Il-so’s transparent gaze swept over everyone in Shaolin.
“There are heroes here who can save them.”
Sigh!
The sound of Jang Il-so snapping his fingers instantly brightened the atmosphere.
“it is not diffcult. “Yeah, it’s not difficult.”
“….”
“Rescuing those in danger is the duty of a servant, right? yes?”
Everyone in Shaolin chewed their lips. It was only then that I understood what Jang Il-so was trying to say.
“Of course, of course! There are obstacles. Because the most vicious Sapa bastards are blocking our way! But… that shouldn’t be that much of a problem, right? “The Nangung family proved their intentions with their lives. You’re not going to say that the world’s Shaolin can’t do that, are you?”
“Jang-il….”
Taak.
Before the court could even speak, Jang Il-so snapped his finger again.
“I’ll give you a chance.”
The court would have rather closed its ears.
That devil burrows into people’s hearts. It seems like he instinctively knows what the weakest part of the human mind is. It felt like they were digging into the weakest part, picking at the wound, sprinkling salt on it, and crushing it with their feet.
“When the sun rises on the fifth day from now, we will return to that island.”
A slightly excited voice came out of Jang Il-so’s mouth.
“At that time, everyone will surely die… without a single one left behind. “All those with Namgung’s name.”
The court’s fingertips trembled.
“So you must decide before the five days are up. “Are we going to watch them die at our hands, or are we going to fight with us to open the way and save them?”
“Jang Ilsoooooo!”
Another loud roar came from the mouth of the court.
“How can a human being do that? “How can you disguise yourself as a human…”
That was clearly justified anger.
It is clear that taking the lives of hundreds of people hostage and dragging another victim into the ant hell, ignoring the court’s actions so far, is something that cannot be done as a human being.
However, Jang Il-so tilted his head as if he did not understand the court’s words at all.
“Is that… are you talking to me?”
“You wicked bastard! “If it’s not you, who else is there?”
“Ah, I am again…”
Jang Il-so openly sneered.
“I thought the ambassador was speaking to himself.”
The court bit its lip until it bled.
“Is that so? You were watching. “I clearly saw with my own eyes the sight of them being bitten by the insurgents and being trampled under my feet.”
Jang Il-so’s eyes glared clearly at everyone in Shaolin.
It was truly bizarre. Jang Il-so is an evil enemy of the four factions, and the people standing here are partisans of the right faction who protect the world from those four factions. However, no one here could look directly at the leader of the cruel Sapa.
It was not Jang Il-so who turned their attention. It was the conscience that existed in their hearts. Jang Il-so touched that very conscience.
“How can you leave it behind while wearing a human mask? huh? Shaolin, which protects the agreement of the Central Plains and nowhere else? Oh my god….”
“Inoooooooom!”
The court erupted in anger. If the distance was close, it was as if he would kill Jang Il-so with one blow.
But unfortunately, there was a river flowing between him and Jang Il-so, and all the court could do now was vent out its anger pointlessly.
“Hahahahahahaha!”
Jang Il-so laughed like a child, as if he was so happy about the court’s reaction.
“Why are you so angry? On the contrary, isn’t this something we should be happy about? “No matter how much love you have in your heart, you can’t become a ally if you don’t get a chance to prove it.”
That seems like a backwards question.
You’ve been talking a lot about keeping the agreement, but are you really willing to risk your lives for that agreement? Have you already stopped walking because you feared for your life?
I want to close my eyes.
I want to cover my ears.
Everyone in Shaolin realized. No matter how differently they act from now on, the act of stopping while watching Namgoong in desperate despair a moment ago will not disappear.
They have already abandoned the agreement they had been discussing for so long.
Why did you stop? Because the court ordered it?
That can’t be possible.
Actually, I was afraid. Giving up my life for someone. Even though they thought they had to do it for granted, the moment they got the chance to do it for the first time, what stopped them was the desire not to die.
The court merely gave them a justification. A reason to stop and place the blame on someone else.
“Ah, Amitabha Buddha.”
“Amitabha Buddha.”
Dislikes leaked from everywhere. This meant that their inner hearts were shaking.
Jang Il-so dared to bring out the truth that they wanted to ignore and carved it into their flesh, bones, and hearts.
“So feel free to prove it.”
Jang Il-so’s lips parted, revealing his pure white teeth.
“Are you really the ones willing to risk everything for an agreement like you have always been shouting about?”
“Profit….”
“Or is he just a hypocrite who took advantage of his own interests in the name of the agreement?”
Jang Il-so briefly touched his lips with his fingernail.
“That… with a great life.”
“….”
“Because Jang Il-so and Sapaeryeon will be a worthy opponent.”
Jang Il-so drove in the final wedge.
“Don’t forget. Five days. That would be enough time to think about it. May your hearts be deeply grateful for My Mercy! Ahahahaha!”
After speaking, he turned around waving his red long gun as if he didn’t care about Shaolin. There was not a single trace of regret.
No one could catch him until the figure slowly disappeared into the black dragon ship.
No one has proven their agreement against him.
I just gritted my teeth and stared at the river with bloodshot eyes.
“…Amitabha Buddha.”
An empty displeasure leaks from the mouth of the court.
Blocking their path was the Black Dragon Ship and the densely packed fleet of Sapae-ryeon. And the plum blossoms that exist beyond that. The court, with its eyes filled with the rarely seen inspectors of Namgung, eventually closed its eyes.
“Amitabha….”
I should not have listened. From the moment the devil started whispering in my ear, I should have known that it was already too late.
I was so scared that I couldn’t look back. It was difficult to check because I was afraid of what expressions the disciples standing behind would be making.
‘This place…’
The court was in a daze and covered its face with one hand.
‘This place is hell.’
Where the devil exists. That place will soon be hell.
