Chapter 438
438fury. That's enough
Kyaaa! Kyaaa!
Eun-ho, caught in Baeksu-ryong’s grasp, struggled to escape somehow. Although he scratched hard with his small claws, there was not a single scratch on the back of the White Water Dragon's hand..
“Did you just roll around in the mud? In just a few days, I became Hwanggu instead of Eunho..”
Baek Soo-ryong clicked his tongue and immersed Eun-ho in a basin and washed her with water. It looked rough, but in reality, Eun-ho's body twisted as if he was tickled by the meticulous touches on every corner..
Kyaaaat-!
“Look at the dripping soup..”
After emptying the water in the basin three times, the silver fur that had become tangled after wandering around Mt. Jeonggang for three days finally regained its color. In the process, Eun-ho, exhausted from repeated meaningless resistance, became limp like a melted glutinous rice cake..
“Now it seems a bit like a spirit creature.”
As Baek Soo-ryong rubbed Eun-ho's clean back a few times, he purred and purred as if he was feeling better. A faint scent came from Eunho’s body. This was thanks to the fact that the bandits of Yeomrachae had already put in the tree fruit that they had brought to them, saying it was good for bathing..
Baek Soo-ryong roughly shook off Eun-ho’s hair with a towel and said..
“I'll be leaving a little later, so don't go far and stay nearby. Now I have to wash up too..”
Baek Soo-ryong took off his clothes and soaked himself in a round wooden bathtub..
As I immersed myself in the steaming boiling water, I felt like my fatigue was instantly relieved..
“Huh. That's good…….”
Baek Soo-ryong was leaning back against the bathtub and making noises like an old man, when he felt something jump in next to him..
with a plop!
Eunho jumped into the bathtub..
He hated it when I washed him, but he seemed to want to play in the water..
However, the water in which Baek Soo-ryong soaked himself was so hot that it could not be compared to the water in which Eun-ho washed..
Kyaaaat-!!
A scared Eun-ho jumped up onto Baek Soo-ryong’s shoulder. Then it cried out in resentment and swung its front paw wildly. Although it looked like a cotton bat, it was an attack with as much force as that of an average martial arts expert..
Swish swish!
Of course, this was not the white water dragon that would accept that calmly. I just turned my head slightly and avoided all the cooking..
“Who wants to come in? Why are you making a fuss about me when you come in on your own??”
As soon as Baek Soo-ryong grabbed Eun-ho by the back with an absurd expression and placed her outside the bathtub, Eun-ho ran outside in a panic..
Baek Su-ryong shook his head as he looked at the red-faced back..
“I think mother Eunho was calm.…….”
[You should not compare a spirit creature that has lived for hundreds of years with a baby that has not lived even a year..]
The Changryongsin sword placed on one side of the wooden tablet trembled..
Although he had been almost neglected since coming to Yeomrachae, Changryong Shingeom's voice was more lively than before..
[It's a pity that I'm already leaving Mt. Jeonggang. It's been a long time since I was able to feel the rich energy of nature. I think it would be okay to wait here for you to come back.…….]
Changryong Shingeom secretly tried to ask if he could just rest here and wait, but Baek Soo-ryong shook his head..
“I'm sorry, but that won't work..”
Since his identity must be hidden, Baeksuryong will not be able to pull out the Changryongshingeom at the Sa Sect meeting..
But even for other reasons, the Changryongshingeom was absolutely necessary..
“If you're not there, someone will do the trick?”
[It seems like you see me more and more as nothing more than a convenient tool.…….]
“What a sad sound. I think of him as a peerless divine sword, the best magician in the world, a competent advisor, and a close friend who shares the secrets of his past life..”
[……Even though I know, I'm being deceived again.]
After completing his ablutions, Baek Soo-ryong changed back into the black military uniform he first wore to Yeomrachae..
In my longing, there was still Seolryonghui’s face. This was because he could not attend the Safa meeting with his original face..
Baek Su-ryong muttered as he looked into Tokyo..
“This face was enough in the ice palace, but it's a bit boring to look like a bandit. I need to change my hair style and color..”
[Think about the shape you want.]
When Baek Soo-ryong remembered the most bandit-like hair color and shape he knew, the Changryong Shingeom technique was immediately activated..
Sssssssut…….
In an instant, my hair grew long and voluminous and turned pale yellow..
Hair blowing in the wind like a lion's mane.
It was the same hair color as Master Maeng in Baek Soo-ryong’s memories..
“……Not bad.”
Kyaaaat!
Eun- ho, who returned to the room, widened his eyes when he saw Baek Soo-ryong's changed appearance. Baek Soo-ryong called Eun-ho with a wave of his hand..
“It came right at the right time. Let’s dye your hair too.”
Kyaaa?
After a while, Eunho was amazed to see himself reflected in Tokyo..
The fur that was as white as snow turned scarlet, and a black stripe appeared on it..
Baek Soo-ryong stroked the head of Eun-ho, who looked like a kitten at first glance..
“Your role will continue to be important, so please take good care of it..”
Kyaaaat!
Baek Soo-ryong lifted Eun-ho onto his shoulder and took his travel bag and went outside..
The green-robed monk and his subordinates were waiting for Baek Su-ryong in simple clothing..
“Looks like you've been waiting. sorry.”
“no. We just finished preparing.”
Instead of the green robes he usually wears, the monk in green robes wore a wide-legged white robe and a bamboo hat, and he looked like a scholar without fail..
“Sore…….”
The green robe looked surprised at the changed appearance of Baek Su-ryong..
It wasn't just hair color and eye color..
To match, his expression and momentum felt more fierce and rough than before..
It got to the point where I thought maybe this is what this guy really looks like..
‘Even though it is not that big, it feels like facing a huge mountain..’
Did those who faced the King of Green Forest in the past feel this at a loss?.
The green-robed monk did not hide his expression of admiration and asked Baek Su-ryong half-jokingly:.
“Have you decided to completely switch over to us? Yeomrachae is welcome at any time..”
“After a few days, it's not that bad, but I still prefer teaching kids at the academy..”
The two men looked at each other and smiled..
There wasn't much to prepare before leaving..
All they had was ordinary clothes and weapons to avoid their identity being discovered..
“This is the Yuyeopdo you requested..”
Baek Su-ryong accepted the sword given to him by the monk of green robes..
When I gently pulled out a knife from an ordinary sword with no pattern, a blade with a flash of blue spirit appeared..
“……It's a better knife than I thought.?”
“Even if the knife held by Yeomrachae’s new master is too ordinary, it will look strange..”
“but… … . I will write well.”
Baek Soo-ryong nodded and hung the Yuyeopdo sword on his waist. After a few days of falling in love with Geodo, I pulled it out and handed it to Jang Geol..
“older brother! We will accommodate you comfortably until you arrive.!”
“Please give us your luggage.!”
The Green-clad monk's attendants were familiar faces to Baek Su-ryong as well..
Jang Geol and Gu Gil. In addition, a total of four people, including the Green Robe and Baek Su-ryong, were the only people attending the meeting..
‘The promise was that each faction would only meet with a maximum of four people..’
I don't know how many of Sapa's fallen servants will keep their promises, but the monk of green clothes decided to show trust in them first..
For him, this meeting was not simply a place to gather and find ways to respond to the war between blood religions and factions, but a place to declare and be recognized as the successor to King Nokrimtu..
“formation! Please take care of yourself.!”
Yeomrachae's debt owner, Jeokmanpae, sent the group off with a more regretful expression than anyone else..
Since both the creditor and the debtor could not leave the place at the same time, he had no choice but to remain here..
“Georyeongchae and homunchae. If those bastards are so arrogant, their heads should be cut off.…….”
“I'm not taking you because I'm afraid you'll do that..”
“Saying something that I didn't mean to say. The thing I want to split their heads off the most is the large ones..”
Jeokmanpae stroked his favorite disease, the ax blade, and quenched his appetite. Then he turned his head and looked at Baek Su-ryong. At that moment, his large pectoralis muscle bulged..
“Mr. Cheongryong Credit Union. Please take care of my brother. And if we stop by here again later, let's go outside again..”
Baek Soo-ryong nodded willingly..
“Nothing will change, but if you try again, I'll accept it..”
“Hahaha! Cheeky is just my style! Until next time we meet, I will work hard to build up my muscles.!”
Yeomrachae was bustling from beginning to end..
Although it was only three days, the bandits who had become friends with the band approached us, bid us farewell, and even brought us snacks..
-Baby. If you have nowhere to go, how about going to the green forest with me??
Baek Soo-ryong chuckled as he remembered Master Maeng telling him the story of Green Forest with his eyes shining..
‘I guess it wouldn't be bad. No, you must have had quite a bit of fun..’
After being seen off by many bandits, Baek Su-ryong and his group of monks in green robes left Jeonggang Mountain to participate in the Sa Sect meeting..
* * *
a few days after that.
The group of monks set off for Hyeongsan Mountain, where the Sapa meeting was held, was moving towards their destination at a constant speed without any major incidents..
But that doesn't mean their journey was easy..
“Save people's lives…….”
“mother… … . How are you?……?”
Jang Geol and Gu Gil, who were lying on the dirt floor looking like rags, looked up at the sky. It was clearly broad daylight, but strangely the sky looked bright yellow..
The voice of the true King Yeomra was heard in the ears of the Yeomrachae bandits, whose limbs were trembling due to terrible muscle pain..
“Trainees. wake up right now.”
Kyaang!
King Yeomna, who swings a whole sack of leaves like a club, and a tiger cub who acts like the devil's minion..
“Can't you hear the instructor's voice? I'll count to five. I'll leave it to the trainees' imagination as to what happens after that. five. four…….”
“Now, wait a minute.!”
“woke up!”
Jang Geol and Gu Gil forced their trembling bodies to stand up. Then he looked at Baek Su-ryong with a tired expression..
‘Is this man a devil??’
‘Soo-hyuk says that he receives training like this every day.?’
The past few days have made me feel more respect for my nephew at Baekryongjang..
‘I can't buy it now…….’
‘Why do you say things like that?…….’
It all started when the monk in green saw Baek Soo-ryong learning martial arts, and they both mustered up the courage to ask Baek Soo-ryong to teach them martial arts..
“This instructor clearly warned us. It would be very difficult to learn martial arts from me. So think carefully. What did the trainees answer at that time??”
“Ha, I can do it…….”
“If you teach me, I will follow even if my bones break.…….”
Baek Su-ryong nodded. Eunho, who was sitting on his shoulder, also nodded..
“But now that you're having a hard time, do you want to quit? Have you ever broken a bone? Or is there a harpoon somewhere on your body? Is that the only mental state the trainees have?!”
““Oh no…….””
The two voices crawled into the merciless grind. Baeksu-ryong’s pale yellow hair swayed wildly in the blowing wind..
“That's all you need to know. What do you do? Now that I have had enough rest, I start training again. practice.”
““City, conducted!””
Jang Geol and Gu Gil performed the training taught by Baek Soo-ryong with expressions that looked like they were about to cry. Rocks and logs nearby were mobilized, and Eun-ho, a better training assistant than expected, whipped them constantly..
And the results of that training were greater than expected..
Whoa whoa!
Jang Geol, who left a clear palm print on the rock, looked at his hand with an expression of bewilderment. It was a result achieved only with external work, without any internal work..
“This doesn't make sense…….”
It was the same with Gugil. His weakness was that his movements were very slow compared to his size, but the way he used his body improved significantly in just a few days. Now I can avoid attacks that I could never avoid before..
‘The foundation is strong and absorbs quickly..’
Jang Geol and Gu Gil had one of the best bodies in Yeomrachae. Although his internal skills were insignificant, his external skills, which he had trained by climbing up and down the Yangtze Mountains for over ten years, were incomparable to those of most martial artists..
What the Hundred Water Dragons did was simply apply some of the Eighteen Formulas of Green Forest and bring out their potential abilities..
In short, they were students who enjoyed teaching. The sight of the two developing day by day made Baek Soo-ryong happy..
‘Still, I can't compare it to that guy..’
Baek Su-ryong turned his head. There was a monk there who was practicing the eighteen forms of green forest alone..
“Whoa whoa…….”
White steam was blowing out from his shirtless body. Although it looks thin, its body is full of muscles and is reminiscent of a noble crane..
Wow!!
Depending on the path the green-clad monk was moving, a typhoon blew and then changed into a breeze. It was free. Fallen leaves swirled around him. With a single gesture, the air was distorted, and an earthquake spread through the clouds at his feet..
“It's meat completely soaked in water..”
A man who has already been trained in the martial arts left behind by King Nokrimtu for over thirty years. Although his natural physique was not large, his body's perfection was superior to that of anyone Baek Soo-ryong had ever seen..
The eighteen ceremonies of Nokrim passed down to monk Nokui were nothing short of heavenly miracles. Like water seeping into dry land, I instantly absorbed the mystery and fell into a trance..
“That's enough... … I don't need to teach you any more.”
Baek Soo-ryong laughed and watched the process of the green-clad monk completing his martial arts skills..
