Congressman, Live Again - Episode 650

Episode 650

I saw a staircase.

People were coming down the stairs in a row..

It seemed like they were reciting a prayer of praise, and there was a familiar face among them..

village.

I also saw a few people I passed by while investigating..

Even the guesthouse owner.

Most of the local residents were gathered together and reciting unknown prayers..

[Brother~ This was not a ‘good’ Yangmin or a ‘just’ Yangmin, but a ‘blood missionary’ Yangmin.~]

[Has it gone beyond the level of a simple abettor?.]

Jin Cheonhee sighed..

My brother's hair falls gently..

‘This is my brother. Even during this time, he is a natural doctor who tries to see the good side of people..’

What do the eyes that cannot use the Xuanyuan Zhendan New Technique reflect?.

Sima Hyun said.

[There's one thing I didn't tell you.]

physiology of blackness.

The black way that good people deduce based on experience and reason is somewhat different from the true black way..

Because human malice is higher than any imagination..

I didn't want to say such dirty things, but the situation was like this so I couldn't help it..

‘It's so strange. The place that should be avoided the most is the base of the Blood Mission, so why are the local residents silent?.’

Same goes for Sapa.

It's a brothel, a gambling house, an opium den,.

Even though it is clearly a dangerous place to be in, they cover their eyes..

Because it's easier to cover my eyes than to get rid of it.

[Simple aiding and abetting is the beginning of evil. To show their gratitude to those who aid and abet them, the black thieves give them drugs and make them addicted..]

[…….]

[So, by standing by, you may think that I am neutral and not involved, but that is not true. Even the bystanders are deeply involved, bro. You can turn around and blow it out at any time..]

[Since you stood by and watched, it doesn't mean you're considered a member of the same group..]

At those words, Sima Xuan smiled like a mask..

[One loss? That's what those with power do. Bystanders are just tools that are kept alive because it is better to use them than to kill them. But people are too naive to understand that. Reality is crueler than Peking opera..]

Peking opera villains always wear colorful clothes and masks..

It may be an enemy that the protagonist will have to defeat at some point, but on the contrary, he seemed strong until he was defeated..

If I side with them, wouldn't it help me rise up the ladder of this class, even if only for a little while?.

humans think.

It wasn't just Kang Ho-in. The same goes for the civilians.

The people I met during the interrogation were all memorizing unknown sutras with desperate expressions..

Sima Hyun said.

[You see the potential in humans, right? That's a good possibility too. Because that's what a congressman is. This is probably the reason why we do not select patients..]

Sima Xuan moved his body like a clown on the beam..

The sleeves puffed out softly..

[What about a guy like me? I always see the worst.]

[…….]

[Welcome to my world~ bro~]

Jin Cheon-hee did not answer. I just watch all the civilians go down the stairs..

Soon, Dan Seok-han appeared at the altar..

He chanted an unknown spell and sprinkled red herb medicine on people..

“Wow!”

“I'm First! I'll get it first!”

The villagers ran like hungry ghosts and picked up the red herbal medicine..

Red as blood, it also resembled hawthorn fruit..

The scent was so sweet that it even reached the two people hanging on the ceiling..

* * *

How much time has passed.

Sima Xuan deliberately changed the topic..

[But these bastards are so strong? We destroyed part of the line and they're still doing this shit.~]

[Because it wasn't a large-scale attack. And that means this is an important ritual for them..]

I'm not saying I want to do this ritual anytime..

Even in KOREA, isn't JE-SA celebrated on the day of the deceased's death, or on Chuseok and Lunar New Year?.

Also, the Lunar New Year ancestral rite is usually held during the Lunar New Year..

I can't just stay there just because I want to invite my grandmother and grandfather, who passed away today, to the dinner table..

Even general ancestral rites are held on a set date, and these ceremonies go without saying..

Since this kind of thing has to match the heavens and the weather, if you cancel, you don't know when the next time will happen, so you force it..

‘It's not for nothing that they capture the heroine and hold a ceremony in the demonic cult, knowing clearly that the main character and his party are attacking from the martial arts world. Being a JE-SA isn't easy..’

Especially since I am Zhuge Emperor who studies the Eight Trigrams and the Book of Changes, I know better..

‘It's frustrating because I can't use the Xuanyuan Zhendan New Technique as usual..’

Calculations that would normally be easy are a bit difficult in this situation..

It feels like I'm carrying heavy weights on my arms and legs..

Eventually, the ceremony ended and Dan Seok-han disappeared through the passage opened in the north..

“Wahahaha! My elixir! My rainaaaagh!”

“one more! this is mine!”

The villagers even fight with each other to drink the suspicious elixir, but no one stops them..

[Still no stabbing.]

[In a place like this, everyone needs each other~ It's not easy to kill them.~]

Eventually, the residents recited another strange prayer and dispersed..

[I don't know what kind of ritual it was, but it ended without any display of internal organs or blood..]

[Oh~ bro. Up to that point, you have to have a lot of conscience to close your eyes. Maybe next year or the year after that will be possible? Right now, I'm in the middle of hypnotizing myself, thinking that the blood missions that people talk about and the actual blood missions are different from..]

Then, he laughs, saying, 'I guess that's roughly what they think, because they keep kidnapping one or two people in Sapa too.'.

[It's getting more and more colored..]

[okay. That is the process by which humans become corrupted. Black people are good at using that. There's no way the Blood Mission wouldn't know that.~]

[…….]

Sima Hyun opens his bright red lips and smiles..

[okay. brother. Humans are beings who can become anything. Everyone wants eternal life and wealth, so they kill people. You would be surprised to know how many people sell their children to salt fields.?]

Sima Xuan whispers seductively..

In a way, it was Sima Xuan's secret wish..

I know how great my brother is now..

Because the benevolence he bestowed is deeply embedded in Sima Xuan’s heart..

‘But, my brother is a human. made of flesh, bones, and blood.’

Blood missionaries are already half-human, so even if that's the case,.

I will treat all patients without judging whether they are good or bad..

Baek Lin’s line didn’t do that either..

Sima Hyeon couldn't understand why his brother was doing such a dangerous thing. so that…….

‘If only we could take one step together.’

A standard that is embarrassing to even call it corruption.

Because I wanted to at least treat only ordinary people..

“…….”

However, this man does not answer. However, I did not use the Hyeonwonjeondanshin technique..

Isn't he just saying this after rubbing his eyes with a tired look?.

[When I'm done, I'll have to fry some more chicken..]

In a calm but tired voice.

He didn't even express his disappointment in humans..

I just touched Sima Hyun's shoulder once and made a comforting gesture..

Sima Xuan's eyes and Jin Tianxi's eyes meet..

A fleeting moment that feels like eternity.

Jin Cheon-hee follows Dan Seok-han inside..

The hair on his hairpin flutters once and then moves away..

Sima Xuan looked at his brother's back..

A neck that is not tilted just stares into the darkness and slides.

I feel that my brother has become stronger.

At the same time, Sima Xuan felt a strange sense of defeat..

* * *

‘Social rituals are prohibited in the empire. In fact, it is possible to turn this place into a wasteland just by bringing in government troops..’

Jin Tianxi thought as he chased after him..

‘But if that happens, it will be impossible to subdue them. Because the speed of the government army is not fast..’

There was no way the head of the unit wouldn't know they were moving..

In the end, it was clear that all of Dangajang's central figures would leave..

Moreover, when the government forces come and turn this place into a wasteland, innocent civilians will naturally be harmed..

‘……Damn it.’

The village natives gathered together, but of course not all..

Those who are not here. and.

‘Although they don't know the inside story of blood missions, they are the ones who covered up the fact that people went missing..’

This is always a problem when murders occur on islands or small remote villages..

All the villagers are involved somehow..

Even people who can be said to have nothing to do with this incident..

Sima Xuan’s words became poison and stuck in my heart..

But fortunately it didn't hurt. Aren’t doctors supposed to treat gangsters when they come in as patients?.

Earth's medical ethics are solid..

Also, today I have to treat a child who killed someone with a machine gun yesterday... They are doctors.

‘Stop this immediately. And in the future, the work of the government will be left to the government..’

Isn’t that what the Gold & Silver royals expected after all?.

May this (unofficial) brother do what they cannot do..

And do what you can.

‘If you're going to entrust something like this, get at least a few dozen classmates on board! Damn twins! Considering how much you like freebies, you will be 100% bald in your later years.!’

Jin Cheon-hee secretly but violently cursed him to be bald..

And finally there came a crossroads.

Jin Tianxi took out the compass, looked at it, and closed it again..

[Is it east or west?.]

A sense of direction is especially important underground..

[I'll go east. Hyuna, you go west.]

[okay~]

Now, it’s a waste to even bother talking about foreign words like this..

Sima Hyeon is far away..

After taking a quick look at his back, Qin Tianxi also quickly headed east..

How much more did it take? There were several rooms inside..

the first of them.

Jin Cheon-hee opened the door..

‘……!?’

My body stiffens at the sight in front of me..

A room without a single lock.

It's a room that anyone can easily open, but looking at the traces, it looks like the villagers don't come in here..

There was a flower garden in a room like this..

The flowers were in full bloom..

The strong scent given off by the flower was similar to the medicinal herb that was sprayed on the villagers..

Each petal is as fresh as if it were alive. There wasn't even a trace of bugs eating it..

What you see underneath the red flower garden is people.

A human corpse served as a seedbed.

‘A flower that blooms directly from a corpse... … is it?’

I'm not a botanist, so I don't know how this is possible, but strangely enough, I could see that the corpse was not decomposing..

There was no strange odor and there were no bugs..

I checked my pulse with trembling hands..

‘……Fortunately, the person is dead..’

Jin Cheonhee breathed a sigh of relief..

That's because the corpse seemed so vivid that I had a terrible imagination for a moment..

I sighed and collected a few flowers for evidence..

Then I headed to the next room..

‘Is it a mushroom this time?.’

It was true that they used the corpse as a seedbed to bloom..

Luckily, I checked his pulse and he was dead as well..

Should I say I'm glad I don't suffer anymore?.

First, we collected mushrooms for evidence to send back to the coffin..

All of the victims were unclothed, so there was no way to identify them..

I was thinking about collecting at least part of the hair, but I laughed out loud because I wondered what the point would be in an era where DNA technology had not yet developed..

Instead, there was a piece of flesh that fell off, so I took it..

Even the fallen flesh remains intact and does not rot. There's just no blood.

In the midst of strange madness, Jin Cheon-hee calmly wakes up..
