Episode 358 Who was afraid?
If you walk, it will take quite a while, but if you go to Gyeonggong, you can get there quite quickly.
That’s how much faster my light attack became. If you make up your mind and run like a madman, you are fast enough to overtake a carriage or a famous horse.
It’s not normal.
I would probably be in the top ten in the rankings of light and air defense. If it became possible, surprisingly, it was thanks to Amhyangpyo.
I tested my body’s limits with Amhyangpyo.
I wonder if I can continuously perform Yamhyangpyo, how quickly my internal energy is consumed, and how much pressure my body has to bear after performing it….
I returned while researching the combination of the newly created martial arts and the body.
When I ran so hard that my energy could not fully recover, I deliberately climbed a quiet mountain, had a lucky breakfast, and then came down.
Because I am inherently skeptical.
Strangely, when I tried to sleep in the guest room, I couldn’t sleep all night.
My ears became brighter, and there were times when I could attach meaning to the sound of footsteps upstairs.
At first glance, I fell into a light sleep and woke up to the sound of footsteps in the hallway, and sometimes I had the illusion that the sound of footsteps was mixed with the sound of rain hitting the roof.
If your martial arts skills deepen, will you be free from coinage?
I found out that wasn’t the case.
This is because when the five senses are developed, if those five senses are combined with doubt, it becomes difficult to sleep comfortably through the night. Of course, underneath it all, I was convinced that there would be assassins targeting me.
Will I ever be able to become a person who can spend my daily life mixed in with ordinary people? I often fantasized about spending the rest of my life deep in the mountains, where no one could find me.
It seems that the founders of the old sects did not create a sect in the mountains for no reason.
First of all, the energy of the mountain itself is different, so it is advantageous for gathering fortune.
If the foundation of the clan is flat and wide, it is easy to prevent surprise attacks. This meant that a lot of things had to be prepared in order to have a comfortable sleep.
Surprisingly, although my martial arts skills had become even more advanced, I was wandering around another Juhwa Ipma. As if nothing was taken for granted, both good and bad things happened to me.
Now that I think about it, I was able to sleep peacefully when I was with masters like Cheonak and Baekui Seosaeng, and when the Four Great Evils took turns protecting the law, I was able to sleep without all kinds of worries.
Is this why I am friendly with evil people?
Because his condition was slowly worsening, he returned as quickly as possible. As I got closer to Baekungji, my eyes became strained because I couldn’t sleep deeply. As soon as I ordered my food at a secluded guesthouse, which I thought would be my last meal before arriving at Baekeungji, I dozed off on the chair for a while.
‘Life is so tiring.’
Now when I close my eyes, the ghost is chasing me. I also fell into the imagination of assassins weaker than me courageously attempting a surprise attack.
When I opened my eyes and heard Jeomsoi’s footsteps, a bowl of plain noodles was placed on the table.
Just by looking at its appearance, the noodles looked tasteless.
‘Are people supposed to eat this?’
The noodles were in such serious condition that even their appetite was useless. As I was stirring with my chopsticks, the inside of the cup became dark and someone blocking the entrance was keeping an eye on me.
“….”
The face was not visible, but the dark red long sword hanging from the waist was very visible as the sunlight was bouncing off it.
I was so tired that it wasn’t surprising that my eyelids were closed, but as soon as I saw the man walking leisurely, I immediately lost sleep.
Gwangmyeongwoosa suddenly appeared and sat down across from me and said.
“Where have you been so busy? Hao Wen Ju.”
As I watched in silence, Gwangmyeong Usa looked at Jeomsoi.
“Same thing.”
“yes.”
Gwangmyeong Woosa looked at me.
“You seem very surprised. Come on, eat it. “I need to fill my stomach.”
Since Gwangmyeong Beef Company was in front of me, I lost my appetite. I asked while holding my chopsticks.
“…surrounded?”
Usa didn’t answer my question and just said what she wanted to say.
“I expected Baek Eung-ji to return, but I didn’t know when that would be. “Would you like to have a drink if you don’t have an appetite?”
Why did such a strong man appear when he was so tired?
Of course I wasn’t in the mood to drink.
Baek Eung-ji was a very bold move for Gwangmyeong Usa to appear in a place not far away, as Baekdo was home to many military and military families. However, considering the power of the Gwangmyeong Usa, it did not seem strange that he was moving around freely. In any case, this is because he is a strong person that even the white-robed student cannot easily deal with.
Gwangmyeong Woosa looked at me.
“You look very tired, Munju.”
I nodded.
“I’m tired.”
“why? “Did you have trouble sleeping?”
“Have your subordinates been following me the whole time? “It’s strange that I can’t sleep.”
Gwangmyeong Usa laughed.
“I was looking for it, so it might have been.”
Next, Jeomsoy came over and put down the noodles in front of Gwangmyeong Woosa.
“The noodles are here.”
Gwangmyeong Woosa stretched out his hand and as soon as he grabbed the chopsticks, he ate the noodles in front of me, slurping. It felt a bit strange to see a person who didn’t even seem to eat eat a normal meal.
Is it because I’m sleepy?
It looked tastier than my noodles. I couldn’t even eat the noodles because I was burdened by Gwangmyeong Usa, but this guy ate the noodles very well with a carefree attitude. I suddenly felt nauseous and thought about eating noodles, but I barely held back.
Gwangmyeong Woosa ordered a drink from Jeomsoi while eating noodles.
I had no intention of running away, but I also had no intention of fighting right away. I just briefly took a look at Gwangmyeong Woosa Temple, which was very difficult to meet in person. I heard Jeomsoi’s voice waiting behind me.
“…welcome.”
When I looked at the entrance, to my surprise, a man I had seen in my past life came in. I even remembered the name.
It was probably a man named Hong Mok-han. He was a subordinate of Gwangmyeong Usa and a man who guided me calmly the entire time when I entered the school.
Hong Muhan sat a little away and nodded slightly as soon as he saw me.
“Lord Moon.”
Master Gwangmyeong said without even looking at Hong Mokhan.
“If you’re hungry, eat something.”
Hong Mok-han answered.
“it’s okay.”
I tapped my noodle bowl with my chopsticks.
“Are you going to eat this at least?”
Hong Mok-han looked at me and answered with a smile.
“it’s okay.”
I asked Gwangmyeong Woosa.
“When did you say there was no siege?”
“I didn’t say that.”
“I guess so. “Anyway, can’t we call some reinforcements from Baekungji and then fight?”
Gwangmyeongwoosa answered while pouring a glass of alcohol brought by Jeomsoi.
“I can’t allow that.”
Judging by the permission given, it seemed that the Four Great Evils were still alive and well. In fact, it seemed unlikely that Gwangmyeongwoosa’s forces could attack Baek Eung-ji alone. Because things are getting bigger.
I sighed because I had nothing better to do.
“It’s difficult.”
Master Gwangmyeong said while looking at me.
“I’m in trouble too. If you run away, I will kill everyone who works in this guesthouse. “You seem to hate innocent people dying, so I’m sure you won’t take them out alone.”
“Do you know me well?”
“It’s something my subordinates can easily find out if they ask a few questions.”
I called out to Jeomsoy with a hand gesture and then spoke.
“Give me a drink too.”
“yes.”
“You could die if you go outside, so just wait.”
“All right.”
As soon as I heard the answer, I realized that Jeomsoi was also a subordinate of Gwangmyeong Usa. Because the tone was so calm. I was so embarrassed that I couldn’t speak.
Let’s look at Gwangmyeong Woosa….
Gwangmyeong Woosa said with a grin.
“Did you get caught? “The response was very calm.”
“umbrella.”
“Say it.”
“If you fight me now, all of your men will die. Is that okay?”
Master Gwangmyeong shook his head.
“This is not the answer I expected from you. Even Hao Wenju of the world seems embarrassed. Which of the believers you killed was afraid of death? It would be my fault if even one person was on the verge of death and begged for you to save them. “Maybe there was no such person.”
I nodded.
“That’s right. There wasn’t. “Why are you worrying instead of taking action right away?”
Master Gwangmyeong, ignoring my words, asked Hong Mokhan.
“Has everyone arrived?”
Hong Mok-han answered.
“Munju’s light attack was excellent, so we deployed widely.”
Master Gwangmyeong nodded.
“As you heard, we’re surrounded.”
“Can we just have a go now?”
Master Gwangmyeong narrowed his eyebrows slightly and spoke to Hong Mok-han.
“It looks like the archdukes have arrived, so you can block them for a while. “Moonju and I have something to talk about.”
“All right.”
I asked Hong Mok-han while watching him go outside.
“Is the Archduke also here? Archduke Yang?”
Master Gwangmyeong nodded.
“Another archduke has also arrived.”
The two archdukes alone would have been enough to compete for three days and nights, but if there were other archdukes as well, their strength would have been considerable. Of course I couldn’t guess who it was.
Am I being treated like this in a place like this?
Gwangmyeongwoosa said.
“Munju, what should I do with you?”
Even though his life was in danger, I was a kind man who offered advice on his concerns.
“What are you worried about? Let’s shake it off.”
Gwangmyeongwoosa said with a smile.
“It is not easy to drag you alive to the cult leader.”
“Wait a minute, so you’re saying it’s possible to kill him and take him away?”
Master Gwangmyeong nodded.
“That’s right. I’ve already missed several opportunities. Even the Four Heavenly Kings and the ghosts failed, and even the Man in Black failed.”
“hmm.”
“The leader is a very patient person, but he probably didn’t expect his subordinates to fail like this.”
“however?”
“I have no intention of killing you here. Anyway, if you can’t capture him alive, you’ll have to kill him, but it would be a shame to just end up killing someone like you. I plan on absorbing it.”
“So you’re saying you’re going to absorb what’s already going to kill me?”
Gwangmyeong Woosa looked at me.
“If that happens, the anger of the religious leader who turned a blind eye to my past mistakes may be directed at me. Will I really be able to surpass the Three Realms after absorbing the fairly complete yin-yang body?”
He was a fairly honest man.
So, this guy was now looking at me like a chicken raised in the backyard.
“I don’t know about that.”
Master Gwangmyeong nodded.
“That is the point of concern. It would be difficult to take him alive and it would be a waste to kill him. If I absorb it, it resists. “What should I do?”
“Hey…”
The meaning behind this strange logic is as follows.
“What you’re saying is, don’t rebel against me and let’s go to school gracefully?”
Gwangmyeongwoosa burst out laughing.
“ha ha ha.”
It was an obvious ridicule. Come to think of it, they had surrounded me and were making fun of me. Watching Gwangmyeong Usa smile, I started laughing too.
“It’s not Usa for nothing.”
As expected, I thought he was a man whose reputation rivaled that of his eldest brother.
Gwangmyeongwoosa said.
“Ask the princes to come in.”
Even though things had gotten to this point, I was curious about who the other archduke was. I waited for the Archduke while talking to myself.
“Who is it? “I’m looking forward to it.”
Grand Duke Yang appeared first and looked at me with a bright expression.
“Hao Wenju, it’s been a while.”
I pointed to an empty seat.
“Welcome.”
Then, the entire entrance was blocked once again, and unexpectedly, a young man appeared and walked in. He looked like he hadn’t smiled for a long time and his facial muscles were stiff.
If this young guy is the Archduke…
it’s obvious who he is.
I said while looking up at the newly appeared Archduke.
“Are you the eldest son or the second son?”
For a moment, I felt like my hand was going to fly, but the Archduke, who was moving quietly, sat down next to me and looked at me.
The composition was absolutely perfect.
In front of me, sitting to the right of Gwangmyeong Usa Temple and to the left of Grand Duke Yang, was the son of the religious leader. Jeomsoi was originally a subordinate of Gwangmyeong Usa. Outside, a wide siege net had been completed. There would be subordinates of both Grand Dukes, and subordinates of the cult leader’s son would also be mixed in.
Grand Duke Yang spoke to Master Gwangmyeong.
“He told me to capture him alive.”
Master Gwangmyeong nodded.
“Negotiating.”
This time, the cult leader’s son answered.
“What negotiation?”
I first tapped the table with my hand several times to attract attention. Since I had figured out something, it seemed like a good strategy to report Gwangmyeong Woosa’s corruption to the son of the cult leader.
“First of all, I have something to tell you. “The titles are confusing, so tell me first whether you are the second son or the eldest son.”
Grand Duke Yang answered on his behalf.
“You are the second son.”
After nodding my head, I first thought about the order of words, and then spoke clearly.
“Gwangmyeong Woosaga.”
“….”
“I absorbed the black-robed person, the disciple of the ghosts whom I raised with great effort. Whatever you want. “Usa has learned magical skills that can absorb anything, including internal energy, and it is clear from the fact that he took the man in black right in front of my eyes, but he said he failed.”
As soon as I finished speaking, Grand Duke Yang stroked his chin and the second son of Ma Chou looked at me.
Gwangmyeong Woosa also showed no significant change in expression.
Grand Duke Yang said to me.
“whatever. “Moonju, what are you going to do?”
Ma Gyoju’s second son also didn’t have much of a reaction.
“You’re a snitch. “If Usa had absorbed it, there must have been a good reason.”
Grand Duke Yang spoke to Master Gwangmyeong.
“Did you absorb it?”
When Master Guangming nodded, Grand Duke Yang spoke.
“Congratulations.”
Gwangmyeongwoosa answered in a calm tone.
“It was nothing.”
I can’t even sigh anymore. My eyes were still strained, I was sleepy, everything bothered me, and I couldn’t figure out anything.
Master Gwangmyeong said as if he was admonishing me.
“When you live in Munju, there are times when you have no chance of winning. “I’ll give you some medicine to help you sleep, so let’s move safely.”
I said, holding out my hand.
“Just a moment before that.”
I put my hand into my pocket, took out the ink knife, and slammed it into the table.
Sigh!
Gwangmyeongwoosa Yang’s second son looked at the dagger stuck on the table. Gwangmyeongwoosa asked me.
“What does this mean?”
I said while looking at the ink sword stuck on the table.
“When you propose a life-or-death fight in our neighborhood.”
“….”
I looked at Gwangmyeong Woosa.
“Start like this.”
