Congressman, Live Again - Episode 179
Episode 179
The two were standing in the training hall. It was because we practiced together..
Jin Cheon-hee trained with Cheon-woo and learned at least some of the parts of the Shen Mu season..
‘Cheonwoo really understands energy quickly..’
That was the best advantage I felt while training together..
When it came to sensing energy and manipulating it, Cheonwoo was unrivaled..
“Bro, I just noticed something distorting in the sword attack..”
“Has it become distorted? So that means it went the way I wanted..”
I was happy to hear that..
Jin Cheon-hee is a transcendent expert..
Of course, the transcendent master himself must be a very outstanding swordsman within the powerhouse, but he is by no means comparable to his teacher, grandfather, or blood descendant..
‘It's nothing compared to the Heavenly Demon.’
Now I think I know a little bit about Yeo Ha-ryun’s state..
Due to the divine protection of Heavenly Death, Yeo Ha-ryun was instinctively approaching Simmu..
It meant that Geomro was instinctively pursuing it even though he was not Hyeon-gyeong..
Although the side effects of the homicidal impulse are great, the ability to kill is a great talent..
The more I thought about Yeo Ha-ryun, the more it seemed like a distant place..
‘miss you. How are you doing? Ha-Ryun-ah.’
When I suddenly feel a surge of longing, I send letters. However, this place can be said to be the heart of the political faction..
Jin Cheon-hee is not big enough to send a letter from here to where Ha-ryun is..
‘You must have become very strong again by now.’
It was a big step for Jin Cheon-hee to be able to bend space..
“It seems that I have become able to do this, albeit to a limited extent, by learning the Yangyi Shingung and Taegeukhyegeom..”
“It must be a great achievement to realize even a small part of it and make it your own. Isn't it usually impossible to even attempt it unless you reach the level of perfection?.”
“yes.”
“But why does he look like he has finally taken a step forward??”
The state that Jin Cheon-hee just showed was a state that would make one hug a sword and sob..
Simmu's side.
However, Jin Cheon-hee seemed to have done what was obvious..
“Hahahaha, that's right. The higher you climb, the higher you see..”
“My brother is scared..”
Cheonwoo grumbled sincerely..
Even though he became stronger, Jin Cheon-hee was never satisfied..
“I don't know what to call this superfood I just wrote..”
It was possible to slightly bend the opponent's attack using true energy..
Some may ask what's so great about simply bending. But its utility was endless..
‘For example, if you turn an enemy's attack coming in a straight line by just about 10 degrees, something interesting will happen..’
The range is about 1 cheok (25cm) based on the body of the sword..
It only slightly twists the power rather than completely draining it, but when used in conjunction with swordsmanship, the opponent's sword strike cannot reach Jin Cheon-hee..
“Even if it's the same transcendental peak, my brother will have an overwhelming technical superiority, so it will be possible to 'survive and subdue' what he wants..”
“okay. Even if one of her limbs is blown off, if she still has her life, she's alive..”
Jin Tianxi nodded solemnly..
“Plus, it goes amazingly well with the Hyeonwonjeondanshin technique..”
Jin Cheon-hee, who uses thought acceleration, has no choice but to gain a strategic advantage when exchanging offense and defense with her opponent. In other words, if she has this technically higher function, she can more easily neutralize her opponent..
Cheonwoo narrowed his eyes and grumbled..
“My brother has strength, thought acceleration, and is superior in technique, so in reality, there is no one who can beat him in the peak..”
“That's a good thing. Because quick suppression can bring peace. Killing doesn't suit my temperament.”
“Somehow, my brother seems to be more of a Taoist than a Taoist..”
“I said I wouldn't kill you, but I didn't say I'd leave you alone..”
Cheonwoo burst into laughter at those words..
“That's why it's more like a Taoist. Better than a guy like me.”
Instead of answering, Jin Cheon-hee ruffled Cheon-woo's hair..
“Don't say that. Sometimes you have to kill one ruthless bastard to save a thousand people. There are no absolutes.”
Still, I didn't want to get blood on my hands if possible..
Anyone who has lived in the martial arts world since childhood would know that murder is a very serious thing to modern people's senses..
‘If you don't want to suffer from war PTSD when you get older, you have to live moderately..’
I don't care about the quality of life of the wicked, but shouldn't I take care of the quality of my life?.
“by the way… … It's almost time.”
Jin Cheon-hee suddenly looks up at the sky..
Looking at the sunset sky, Jin Cheon-hee was reminded of a saying widely known in Gangho..
“Iknow, right. It's already tomorrow.”
Cheonwoo answered with a slightly sullen expression..
Jin Cheon-hee smiled while looking at that face..
“It's a class for organizing conversational characters. There's no need to be so sullen.”
“People who have met will always break up, and people who have broken up will meet again... … . It's a phrase from the Lotus Sutra. But bro. The word ‘when’ is missing from that scripture..”
Lotus Sutra. One of the Buddhist scriptures. The phrase that appears there was originally meant to represent reincarnation, a core doctrine of Buddhism..
However, it was also often used as a metaphor for a fateful meeting in Gangho. And in fact it happened often..
The strong people meet and then part ways, but eventually meet again..
Even if it is a form of life and death.
“There's nothing we can do because we have each other's lives. still. Now that I know that I am living a healthy life, I should be satisfied with that..”
Cheonwoo slightly furrowed one of his eyebrows as if he was a little dissatisfied..
Despite Cheon-woo's expression, Jin Cheon-hee smiled even more and raised his sword..
“ruler. Because today is the last day. Should we have a sparring match with Cheonwoo??”
Cheonwoo saw that and raised his sword..
“Then I will ask you a favor. brother.”
“good.”
Jin Cheon-hee smiled and took a stance..
The sunset is setting. the sky is red clouds flow.
Time waits for no one. The sun rises and sets, and eventually life goes on..
In an emotional mood, Jin Cheon-hee recalled the events that occurred in Wudang Mountain..
I gained a lot by coming to Mt. Wudang..
I acquired a second teacher, learned the martial arts of the Shaman faction, deepened my Yangyi martial arts, and mastered at least the edge of Taegeukhyegeom..
It was short but enjoyable, so I knew I would miss this meeting someday..
So Jin Cheon-hee stretched out her sword towards Cheon-woo who was standing across from her..
After time passes. To remember the present moment more happily.
visor.
Sword and sword clashed.
Although it was not sharpened, it was a false sword made of metal, so it was as heavy as a real sword..
Two such swords dance in the air. The sword stretched out by Jin Cheon-hee flowed along the path of Socheong Sword Technique..
The sword blade of Taecheong swordsmanship is large and exciting..
Just like that, the Socheong sword technique also followed that sword path, so the sword's trajectory was refreshing..
Although the sword stroke can be easily read, the reason why it is recognized in the powerhouse is because, unlike the sword, the body posture moves with the feeling of pressuring the opponent's movement..
Because swordsmanship is not just about moving the sword, the movement of the body is also determined along with the sword..
Its power is evident.
And when the two swordsmen who had learned the Socheong sword technique matched, their movements were so beautiful that it almost looked like a dance..
Jin Cheon-hee moves by calculating the sword path with thought acceleration, and Cheon-woo follows it with a ghost-like sense..
it was a map.
Jin Cheon-hee's analysis of Socheong's sword technique is taught through sparring..
And Tianyu’s senses quickly absorbed it..
As the dance moves continued, Jin Cheon-hee saw a smile appear on Cheon-woo's face..
Can learning martial arts be that fun??
Although he is a martial arts enthusiast, for Jin Cheon-hee, martial arts was something he learned out of necessity..
What Cheon-woo was feeling from Jin Cheon-hee was a sensation that was difficult to understand. But seeing Cheonwoo so happy made me very happy as an older brother..
However, just as there is an end if there is a beginning, something like a coordinated dance move will eventually come to an end..
Slowly the sword's movement slowed down and eventually stopped..
“ha… … ha…….”
“good job. The sword itself is perfect. Moreover, the improvisation and transformation are also excellent. No matter how hard I tried to shake it, it blocked it very well. He immediately realized what I wanted to tell him. great.”
“Too much praise... … Here you go, bro. Sigh… … My brother. You’re not even out of breath… … Phew… … You know.”
“I have a lot of inner strength, right? And by the looks of it, he is a transcendent expert..”
Hearing Jin Cheon-hee's words, Cheon-woo took a deep breath and only then got his breathing in order and stood..
“thank you for teaching.”
“What to do with something like this.”
“no. The favor he received from his older brother... … It's unfathomable. It was my brother who saved my life. It was my brother who recommended it to the shaman faction..”
“Anyone else would have done the same if they saw your situation..”
“That's not true. If anyone could do it, there would have been many people like me in this shaman faction..”
Jin Cheon-hee smiled slightly at Cheon-woo..
“no. Cheonwoo. You've been so unlucky all this time..”
“…….”
Cheonwoo shook his head again..
“When I was young, I thought every day that I could die next week, or that I could die within the next week. There were times when I went to sleep in a dog house when my children were beating me. Having no name means it has no meaning. Having no meaning means having no value..”
Jin Cheon-hee was the only person who saved Cheon-woo's life, gave him a name, and told him that he had talent..
Cheonwoo habitually stroked his eye patch..
“I feel fortunate that I lost one eye. He wouldn't have met his brother without that disease..”
“Hey Cheonwoo.”
Cheon-woo just smiled with a helpless expression despite Jin Cheon-hee's voice..
“I can't even imagine it now. My body has grown so much and the scars from back then are almost gone now..”
“okay. You grew up well. He became handsome.”
“It's thanks to my brother. Thanks to his older brother who caught him and helped him up at that time..”
Cheonwoo looked at the sunset while lying down unarmed..
Cheonwoo looked with regret at the sky, which had now almost completely lost its red color..
“I don't want to break up with my brother..”
“It's already been too long.”
“I know.”
For Kang Ho-in, separation is always a thing. Still, I never felt regretful..
When the sun completely set, Cheonwoo finally woke up..
“Brother, how strong is that person named Yeo Ha-ryun??”
“hmm… … Very strong.”
“What if I learned everything about shamans??”
“If that happens, you are at least Hyun-kyung, why? Why don’t you say you want to become the best person in the world?.”
“ha ha ha.”
Cheonwoo's clear laughter filled the training hall..
“Actually, it doesn't really matter whether someone acknowledges it or not. Because you are my brother inside me. Still, I really want to share the sword with that person named Yeo Ha-ryun..”
“…….”
“My brother looks like he hates me so much.”
“…….”
“You can postpone it. Because I will wait as long as I can. Because I can wait.”
Cheonwoo muttered lowly with earnestness..
Jin Cheon-hee said.
“Next time, I'll send you a bigger scarf. I will also send you frequent letters..”
“yes. brother.”
The two laughed and bumped their fists..
widely.
That's how the breakup came.
* * *
Noon the next day. Jin Cheon-hee ate a late breakfast and moved her steps to leave Wudang Mountain..
Cheonwoo followed Jin Cheonhee to Haegeomji and saw her off..
“Ugh, I'm dying of regret having to send my brother off like this..”
“Next time we can meet earlier than this..”
It was a brother I met after many years..
Once when I was young and once after I became an adult by Kangho’s standards..
When is the next time?.
It was natural to feel impatient..
