Chapter 266
Episode 266: No matter what anyone says, Lord Sogyo.
After the banquet ended, only the sword dance and the escort dancers remained..
After only having the bodies removed, they deliberately sent everyone away. I wanted to have a drink with the escorts..
I sat down at the table and picked up the bottle..
“Shift coming soon, right? Come on, everyone, have a drink..”
The Red Yan and the guards silently accepted their drinks. Now my orders didn't say 'you can't do that during escort duty'. Because our own relationship was being created..
“A lot of trouble.”
When I raised my glass high, everyone raised their glasses and then emptied their drinks..
A glass of alcohol in an empty banquet hall that had been swept away by a storm had a strange taste..
‘Even at times like this, take some rest..’
Some people say that escort drones are cool, but if you don't have a sense of duty, it's really not easy. Not a lead role, a supporting role, or even a minor role. They are doing something that should be in the background.
“Do you drink alcohol before going to sleep??”
Jeokyeon answered my question.
“I drink it sometimes. If it were a day like today, I would have drank it..”
“A day like today?”
Instead of answering, Jeokyeon asked me.
“Aren't you tired of punishing evil??”
“That's why you lose. Because I'm exhausted. On the other side, if you turn around, the weeds will grow before you know it, but on this side, you are a farmer who has to pull them all out one by one..”
Jeokyeon’s eyes trembled slightly. Soon his eyes turned to the blood stains left where Yeo So-gwang's body was..
“When I first saw Danju Yeo, I didn't know he was that kind of person..”
“Don't be fooled by first impressions. Small people are good at camouflage. I just saw it and it gives me an overly pleasant feeling, so I'll have to be careful first..”
“In that sense, I'm fortunate..”
Because he had one eye, he made a strong first impression. It can't be compared to Gwonma, and can be said to be Jangho's milder side..
“If you take off your blindfold, you have a pretty handsome face, right? manly.”
“Me? This is my first time hearing it.”
Just when Jeokyeon was feeling slightly better, he quickly added,.
“Be careful about things like this. Something that makes me feel good for no reason!”
The enemy and the guards laughed together.
“Are you leaving for Gangseojidan tomorrow??”
“That would be nice, but... I have to finish my work here and go..”
It's not difficult to cut someone down. It's always difficult to clean up after that. We need to clean up what he did and find someone to replace him..
“I'm not busy. Let's go slowly.”
Would it be any different there? Good people and bad people are probably living together..
* * *
The next morning, the rumor that Jidanju had died spread throughout the Honam region..
Because there were so many people at the scene of Yeo So-gwang's death, the reason why he died was also known in detail. Today it is a rumor within Zidane, but within a few days the rumor will spread throughout the Honam area..
Now all the leaders and branch heads in the central region will be afraid of me. I don't think it's bad. Discipline will be established only if you are very scared and nervous..
That afternoon, the head of the Honam region of Tongcheongak came again..
“All of the assets that Yeo So-gwang hid in the nurse's office have been recovered. What should I do with this money??”
“Please send all the money to the headquarters..”
“All right.”
Father and son are working hard to make money outside! I need to give my father a joke..
“The head of the school will have to stay here for a while until the higher-ups decide on a temporary head..”
Since they cut down Jidanju without even deciding on a successor, there was nothing they could do. Even if it wasn't what the Tongcheongak warrior said, I was planning to stay and help with things later..
Just as the selection of Hwangcheonju was entrusted to me, there was a possibility that the successor to Jidanju here would also accept my proposal..
“As soon as you return, please send me information about the executives under Zidane. Please send all possible information.”
“All right.”
After receiving information from Hwangcheongak, I immediately interviewed with the warriors who could become the next landowners..
Although it was impossible to know what kind of person he was through one interview, his past actions gave us an idea of what kind of person he was..
After recording my feelings and impressions about each character, I sent the contents to Tongcheongak. Whether to send in a new person or select one from among those I interviewed, the rest is up to my father and Tongcheongak..
After finishing my work, I practiced my Heavenly Demon Defense at the training center. Recently, when I was practicing the Heavenly Demon Self-Defense Technique, I instinctively felt that it was time for something to tickle me to go beyond the stage..
Indeed, my prediction was correct. On the third day after starting training, the Heavenly Demon Defense Technique reached the next level. Daesung is now one step ahead. Now, if I just pass one level, I will have two lives..
Usually it is difficult to know the reason for such a profound rise in martial arts, but this time I was able to figure it out..
It’s because of Guhwamagong. There was no doubt that learning the Nine Flame Demonic Art had an influence on my training in the Heavenly Demon Tiger Art..
I immediately unfolded the first ceremony of Nine Fire Magic Gong. I was curious as to how the Heavenly Demon Protector's Gong went up to the next level and what effect it had on the Nine Fire Demonic Gong..
First herbivorous destruction ceremony.
The eastern ghost, the western ghost, the southern ghost, and the northern ghost appeared at the same time, tearing up space..
A scary guy, a handsome guy, a mysterious guy, a smart-looking guy. All four were still the same.
And something changed.
The time they stay is a little longer than before. As the Heavenly Demon Protector's Gong rose to the next level, it also had an impact on the Nine Fire Demon's Gong..
Of course, that didn't mean I had emotional interactions with them. Still in my one-sided courtship stage.
East, West, South and North, I wish you all the best in the future.!
Will there come a time when those demons respond to my feelings??
It's still different now, but that day will be when my shoemaking skills will be completely different from my father's..
* * *
The day I finished training at the training center, there were two men who came to see the sword dance. One of them introduced himself first..
“My name is Chungsik (充植). I have something to ask the Sogyoju, so I came to you at the risk of being rude..”
Chung-sik’s voice trembled, perhaps because he was nervous..
And Geommugeuk recognized him..
“You were the one playing at the banquet hall that day..”
When Geommugeuk recognized him, Chungsik was surprised..
“Would you like to recognize me??”
“exactly. I don't easily forget someone I've seen once. What's going on with you??”
Then Chung-sik looked back at the middle-aged man who came with him..
“This friend is my friend.”
The man who came with me introduced himself..
“My name is Haesong (亥松) and I sell vegetables here..”
Haesong was more nervous than Chungshik..
“Nice to meet you, it's a sword dance..”
“It's an honor to meet this precious person..”
“Why did you come to see me??”
Haesong was not willing to speak. Even though I practiced how to say it, when I tried to say it, my heart was shaking and I couldn't speak..
Chungsik, who was worse off, spoke on his behalf..
“Before Master Su came here, this friend's son was unfairly assaulted. They said the injury was so severe that the doctor could become disabled..”
Haesong bit his lips tightly. That was the reason why I couldn't say it with my own mouth. Just thinking about my son made me angry, and my heart was so moved that I felt like crying..
“Who did it??”
“There is an organization made up of young martial artists in the Honam region. They call themselves the Martial God Association..”
“Who led the assault??”
“He is the son of Lord Cheonhwamun and the son of Lord Soya..”
Cheonhwamun Gate and Soya Room. These were the clans that joined hands with the dead Yeo So-gwang. They were also a sect that had to be investigated for this incident, but they showed up in an unexpected way..
Seeing that heaven did not let their sect slip through the net, I thought that maybe their evil deeds were bigger than they seemed..
“We know how rude it is for us, lowly people, to visit Lord Sogyo and ask him this. But that day, I saw Lord Sogyo coming forward for Yakran. I thought that if you were Lord Sogyo, you would resolve this friend’s unfair situation..”
Chungsik’s gaze turned to Haesong..
“I am a person who has spent my entire life playing music. This friend is also the person who bought me, a poor person, an instrument and taught me to play it. I want to repay that favor even if it means risking my life..”
Haesong lowered his head. Even though the author is just a vegetable seller, he knows very well how burdensome and difficult it is to come to the head of the Demonic Cult. His friend risked his life for him. In fact, he also risked his life. If it were anything else I would never have come..
Haesong opened his mouth with a trembling voice..
“Honestly, I was giving up. How can I, who is nothing more than a street vendor, deal with Cheonhwamun and Soya Bang? But this friend did it. The fact that Lord Sogyo came at this time was because heaven gave me an opportunity..”
Haesong looked at the sword dance..
“I want to make them pay for their sins.”
I was shaking all this time, but at this moment it was the look in my father's eyes..
* * *
Haesong’s wife was surprised. When the evil craftsman came and asked my husband to go see Su Jiao-ju, I thought it was a vain effort. This is because I thought there was no way the leader of the Demonic Cult would meet a mere musician. I was worried that if I went there for no reason, I would end up getting hurt..
However, when Su Jiao-ju came in person and the guards stood guard around the house, she was shocked and lost her mind..
When we entered the room, Hae-song's son, Hae-jin, was lying down groaning..
At first glance, the injury was serious. The doctor came and treated me, but I was still lying down and couldn't move. Looking at the current state, it didn't seem easy to live as an ordinary person, let alone an unmanned person..
At the sound of the door opening, Hae-jin said, struggling to endure the pain..
“Mom, I'm okay. I feel much better.”
Hae- jin was struggling to endure the pain for fear that her mother would worry. Haesong's wife sat next to her son, holding back tears..
“Jin, someone precious has come to see you..”
Only then did Haejin open his eyes. But it was so painful I couldn't even see..
“I'll take a look.”
Geommugeuk turned Haejin's body sideways and placed his palm on his back..
After injecting true energy for a moment to control the body's energy and blood, Hae-jin's rough breathing quieted down..
Seeing this, Chung-sik, Haesong, and his wife were relieved and overjoyed. This was the first time I felt this calm since I got injured..
Geommugeuk unclogged blood vessels and re-aligned broken bones. The difficult treatment was accomplished in an instant and with minimal pain. If it weren't for the sound of patter, patter, I wouldn't have known what I was doing..
“What happened??”
Haejin now answered the past with a relaxed face..
“I went to work at the banquet hall. If you deliver alcohol and food at a banquet for a prestigious family, you can get paid more than if you work in a guesthouse..”
Haesong sighed. My son went to military service with the money he earned through hard work. If he had a lot of money, his son wouldn't have gone to such a job. Chung-sik told him not to blame himself, but as a parent, how could he not blame himself??
“My dream is to become a drone.”
“Since he has naturally good muscles, he will be able to become a good martial artist. be thankful to your parents.”
“Really?”
Hae-jin now came to his senses and looked at his parents. The couple smiled while trying to hide their sad feelings..
Geommugeuk asked again.
“What happened there??”
“After carrying the alcohol for the banquet for a while, I had time to take a break and practice the walking techniques I had learned. I shouldn't have practiced…….”
Haejin let out a sigh full of regret and then spoke again..
“Confucius Xu, who was passing by at that time, saw him and asked him if he had learned martial arts. So, when I told him I was going to a military academy, he asked me to dance with a stone master I was hanging out with. I always said I didn't like it, but…….”
Hae-jin made an angry expression, but soon revealed fearful eyes. When I think about that moment, I feel so angry that I can't bear it. The fear of being beaten to death also deeply scarred him..
Now I know what happened. Since the assault was carried out using the non-violence as an excuse, they cannot be held responsible. It won't be something you've done once or twice..
“how is my body?”
“Fortunately, no important blood vessels were injured. A blood vessel that had been blocked due to an injury was just opened. You don't have to give up on your dreams.”
“thank you.”
Tears flowed from Haejin's eyes and rolled down his cheeks..
Chungsik, Haesong, and Haesong’s wife were also very happy. I just hoped that my son would not become crippled, but now my son can dream of becoming a warrior again. They were more happy than the son..
“Are banquets held often??”
“Open once every three or four days.”
“Now take a deep sleep.”
As Geomukgeuk pointed out Hae-jin's blood transfusion, he fell asleep peacefully..
“Leave the rest to me and just focus on your son’s treatment..”
The three people bowed deeply to Geommugeuk. I had no idea that Master Xiao would really be so willing to help. It felt like a dream.
Before leaving, Geomugeuk said to Haesong:.
“I came because I saw the look in your eyes. You saved my son.”
As the sword dance came out, the cries of the sea pine that had been holding back inside were heard. My wife's crying and my friend's crying were added together..
Geommugeuk spoke to Jeokyeon who was waiting..
“I send a message to Tongcheongak again and ask them to send me information about Cheonhwamun and Soyabang, and find out when the banquet will be held..”
“all right.”
Jeokyeon, who was walking towards the carriage together, added,.
“You are truly amazing..”
“what?”
“I mean, you take care of all these things one by one..”
“They come in the carriage you give them a ride, treat them with a ray of magic, and then go to the banquet hall in the carriage you give them a ride and scold those who can't cover up their poop. So, where is the big deal here? What is remarkable is the courage of the musician who asked to visit Sogyoju for his friend. A father's courage to ask the son of a large sect to pay for his son's justice. The patience of a son who pretends not to be sick for his mother. The word ‘amazing’ is used in places like this..”
But Jeokyeon firmly shook his head and said,.
“no. No matter what anyone says, Lord Sogyo is greater..”
Jeokyeon opened the carriage door. Geommugeuk said as he got on the carriage..
“And stubborn. You are changing. There's something rebellious.”
Jeokyeon said as he closed the carriage door..
“Who is it all about??”
Geommugeuk smiled as he looked at the enemy group outside the window. I felt that the gray background was gradually being filled with color..
So the carriage started running to take care of something that was both great and not great..
