The Thousand-Slayer Swordsman Association - Episode 22
〈 22Tue 〉President Anhui (3）

Monster Dragon (？？) Zhuge Mountain.
Review index that no one who lives in this powerhouse knows about.
As the name suggests, he was born as the legitimate son of the Zhuge family, and at the same time, he was a person who attracted the attention of Kang-ho with his eccentric behavior that was worthy of his nickname..
How strange are you doing that you are given the nickname “monster dragon”?.
If you ask that question, there are a few anecdotes that are so famous that even if you stop a person on the street and ask them, they will give you the answer..
Wearing a beggar's clothes and begging for alms on the street.
Entering a local manor as a laborer and swimming through a pit.
And he even proposed marriage to the wife of the head of Heukwonhoe, one of the most powerful forces in the Black Island..
As a criminal, he is a man who has continued to follow a crazy path that cannot be understood..
Of course, to Mok Ri-won, who did not know all the facts, Jegal Mountain had only one meaning..
“I didn't expect it to be discovered so quickly... Well, I'll say hello again because this is what happened. It's called Zhuge Mountain. The place of execution is the ink sword Daehyeop.?”
“Je, Je, Jege…!”
The youngest son of the Zhuge Dynasty.
The son of King Jin, who is said to be the brains of the Murim League..
Longing and excitement began to well up on Mok Riwon’s face..
“exactly! I am that ink sword! It's an honor to see the Zhuge family's ally.!”
Mok Ri-won took the gun with exaggerated movements..
Tang Hwa-seo sighed at his actions, and Zhuge-san burst into laughter..
“Sohyeop, please stop and sit down. There's no need to be so polite..”
“Oh my, you are so heartless too. Let’s see… It's been almost 6 years since we met?”
“I don’t remember our relationship being so good that I miss it so much. Why, do you have to shove poison inside me to keep me quiet??”
Zhuge Shan acted exaggeratedly scared..
Mok Ri-won was unable to understand the situation until then, but belatedly remembered Danghwaseo's origins..
‘ah! Sojeo was also a member of the Five Generations.!’
The Sacheondangmun is a family that is clearly one of the five generations..
So it would be natural for the two to know about each other..
When Mok Ri-won flinched at the feeling that the woman who had always been kind to him seemed distant again, Dang Hwa-seo grabbed his arm and sat him down on a chair..
“Yes, you must be embarrassed. I've seen this guy a few times in the past, but that's it. I'm a person that Sohyeop has no reason to care about..”
words of reassurance.
This was a sight that came as an unfamiliar shock to Zhuge Shan..
‘Hoo….’
Has that Dokbong(？？) ever been this kind to others?.
Isn’t she the one who was always noble and fierce and never let anyone around her?.
Joy rose within Zhuge Mountain..
His eccentricity, known to the whole world, was caused by ‘curiosity’..
Jegalsan is a man so curious that he can't keep up with Mo Liwon..
No, considering his struggle to somehow resolve his curiosity, it can be considered more vicious than Mokriwon..
In fact, wouldn't it be possible to explain his strange behavior if it was something he did to satisfy his curiosity?.
Even just looking at it now, it’s like that..
The new side of humanity called Danghwaseo, which he had seen for over 10 years since he was very young, was enough to stimulate Zhuge-san's curiosity..
“Did you just look? I have had several passionate encounters with my sister.….”
“We met at the Yongbong branch a few times and danced. I remember picking up a falcon because that guy's snout was so light..”
Danghwaseo’s face was full of irritation..
Mokriwon rolled his eyes and tried to understand the atmosphere..
‘So, you don't really like Zhuge Confucius..’
In fact, it was something Mokriwon could not understand..
Although we don't know much about him yet, Zhuge Shan is treating him favorably for throwing chopsticks between his eyes and doesn't blame Tang Hwa-seo for ignoring him..
Isn’t this enough to call him a good person?.
‘Hmm, maybe Soje was worried about me and distanced himself from Zhuge Confucius..’
Since he appeared to the outside world as a ronin without any clan, he may have been worried that someone from a prestigious family might harm him..
Why not?.
If you look at Inhyeop's biography in Chapter 4 of The Story of a Gangho Hyeopgaek, wasn't there a time when children from a prestigious family attacked him because of his humble origins?.
‘Sojeo was really worried for no reason.!’
Mo Ri-won wanted to prove to Dang Hwa-seo that he was not so soft-hearted as to be hurt by something like that..
“Nice to meet you! What an unexpected luck it was to meet Sojeo's old acquaintance! This Mu Liwon, today I am able to have a relationship with Zhuge Confucius.….”
“Stop talking nonsense and go..”
“Uhhhh?”
Danghwaseo suddenly got up and dragged Mokriwon away..
Mo Ri-won looked at Zhuge-san and Dang-hwa-seo in turn with a puzzled expression..
Zhuge Shan waved his hand at Mo Liyuan with a grinning face..
*
“…That's the kind of person he is. You see, right? If you stay close to that guy, the small cooperative could get in a bad light..”
“That, like that….”
Accommodation arrived at after leaving guest room.
Mu Riwon expressed astonishment at Zhuge Mountain's travels as told by Tang Hwa-seo..
“Ugh, how do you propose to a married woman?….”
That was more shocking than anything else..
Imitating beggars, swimming in poop, and running naked down the street can all be done if you judge them to be strange, but isn't that against morality?.
“Cha, what a bad person he was.…!”
A negative look appeared on Mo Liwon’s face..
Danghwaseo finally breathed a sigh of relief..
To be honest, Tang Hwa-seo was not very interested in Zhuge-san..
This is because he believes that no matter where he goes or what kind of misdeeds he carries out, it will be fine as long as he is not involved..
However, if Mokriwon gets caught in the middle, it would be a different story..
‘Since you are such a blank slate, you can learn bad things..’
Tang Hwa-seo did not want such a kind Mok-ri-won to be influenced by Zhuge-san..
“That guy is persistent, so he might come back to Sohyeop again. Then please run away from him and tell me. Do you know?”
“I understand! I will definitely do that!”
Mok Riwon answered resolutely..
However, unfortunately his determination never paid off..

While Danghwaseo left, saying he had personal business to attend to..
Mo Riwon closed his eyes tightly and drank the bamboo leaf syrup..
“Daehyup, I feel so bad if you ignore my words like that..”
On the other side was Zhuge Mountain, which Tang Hwa-seo came to see as soon as he left..
He was talking to Mok Ri-won with an artificial sadness that anyone could see..
“So, the somen is excellent.!”
“So. How did you meet your sister??”
“Bamboo leaf greens are also very sweet! Maybe I'll get drunk today!”
“huh? I'd also like to hear the story of how you defeated Ilryunhoe single-handedly..”
“Ahhh… ! Are you too obsessed with the state capital? I feel dizzy and can't hear.!”
Jegal-san had to hold back his laughter as he saw Mo Li-won acting ridiculously, as if he would not listen to his words..
‘He's such a fun person..’
I wondered what kind of charm it was that made him melt his heart, but indeed he showed a funny side that could not be compared to the storytellers on the street..
Since he doesn't know how to lie and feels guilty about ignoring himself like this, doesn't he feel like he wants to torment him?.
‘I know roughly what kind of person he is.….’
An easy-to-understand type.
In other words, it was a pretty fun toy..
Zhuge Shan suppressed the laughter that had welled up in his throat and continued speaking again..
“Huh... I can't help but feel so sad. I feel like my excited heart has cooled down after meeting Go Soo, who made Kangho so excited. Tonight, I was hoping to meet a close friend with whom I could chat about Kangho's duty all night long.….”
“Ugh…!”
Mokriwon groaned as if in pain..
‘A, Kangho’s duty…!’
What a heartbreaking word!.
What a word this makes my mouth itch..
I wanted to open my eyes right now.
I wanted to have a heated discussion about what the Jegal family's legitimate children and allies are..
‘But Sojeo’s words….’
“It's a shame. It's a shame! I needed someone to tell me about the story I met before coming here.…!”
“By chance??!”
I can't stand this feeling.
“Oh, you're finally answering..”
“Amazing! What is this?! Cliff? Or are you in hiding? Or maybe he discovered a thousand-year sewer while climbing a mountain.?!”
Danghwaseo’s advice had already been completely erased from Mok Riwon’s mind..
There is only one thing that comes to mind, the chance that Zhuge Mountain encountered.
Zhugeshan smiled at the sight of Mo Liwon's eyes shining brightly and moved away..
It was next to him..
widely!
He said as he walked shoulder to shoulder with Mok Riwon..
“Now, would you like to hear this story first? It's about a widow here in town.….”
Startle.
Mo Liwon trembled..
When the word ‘widow’ suddenly appeared, the story of Danghwaseo came to mind..
He proposed to the wife of Heukwonhoeju. He said he collected a thousand wild flowers, made a big bunch, and handed it to me..
Mok Ri-won suddenly got up from his seat and said:.
“Uh, uh-huh! What kind of nonsense are you saying?…!”
“Is the widow devastated? no way… Mok Dae-hyeop looked at the woman who lost her husband like that.…!”
“Ah, no! Then I'm not human.!”
What kind of big deal is this?.
Mu Liyuan felt his hostility towards Zhuge Shan growing within him..
“Je, Zhuge Confucius! I haven’t seen it that way, but people are so treacherous! Aren't you the one who harbored evil intentions toward the woman with her husband?!”
The guests' attention was focused..
Zhugeshan felt a sense of joy fill him and tried to suppress the corners of his mouth that were pouting..
“Hmm? I don't know what you're talking about?”
“I already heard everything from my boss! Confucius Zhuge proposed marriage to a married woman.!”
Oh my god, I guess the rumors were true.!
Did a monster dragon really propose to a married woman? And that too to the woman of the dark island?
Unbelievable! How come….
The guests in the guest room were looking at Zhuge Mountain and mulling over it..
However, Zhuge Shan was not a man of thin skin who could be shaken by such words..
“It's wrong?”
“then! It was wrong for a long time!”
“That's strange. I did that to save the suffering woman, so why is it strange??”
“Ugh, um?”
“That's not true. How average was the viciousness of the Heukwonhoeju? I, who happened to be passing by her, just wanted to help her as she suffered from her cruelty and cruelty..”
Zhuge Mountain rose along Mogniwon..
And then I grabbed his shoulder and spoke..
“Daehyup, let me ask you a question. Isn't it a act of cooperation to save a weak woman who is held hostage by an evil man and lives in pain every day? Even if my reputation is in trouble, she did the right thing by setting her free.?”
“Uh, uh…?”
“How can it be cowardly to ignore a grieving woman so as not to be known as a scoundrel??”
Mok Riwon’s pupils trembled as if there was an earthquake..
‘Yes, I heard it….’
That may seem right.
Unlike when you just heard the story, when you learn the inside story, you start to see Zhuge Shan as a great charlatan..
'I guess I was wrong!'
…It wasn't.
In fact, this whole story was made up by Zhuge Shan..
Zhuge Shan just liked married women..
“Please answer. Mok Daehyup ignores the weak because he cares about his own reputation, and judges people by only listening to other people's stories.….”
Disappointment appeared on Zhuge Shan's face..
“…‘‘Fake charlatan’?”
thud!
Mok Ri-won felt a sense of despair, as if the world was collapsing..
My hands were shaking and I felt like tears were welling up in my eyes..
‘mine, i…!’
Was my vision narrow?.
Was he a scoundrel who only listened to other people's stories and fell into prejudice?.
“Oh no….”
Mok Riwon’s whole body was shaking..
Zhuge Shan felt like it was no longer possible to hold back laughter at that sight..
“Then... Puheup, tell me! Neck Grand Canyon, no. What did the executioner see in me?…!”
Wow!!!!
“…100 million!”
“You're being damned! Neck narrowness! Did I tell you not to talk to this person! Didn't you?!”
After finishing his errand, Danghwaseo has returned..
