Chapter 60
Episode 60: There are many hidden tails.
The place where Ma Yi headed was not Uibang..
He took me to his residence, where there was a separate secret room in the basement for important procedures..
The cabinets that filled the walls displayed all kinds of medicine bottles and herbs whose contents were unknown. There were many herbs that even I, an expert in medicinal herbs, had never seen before..
“Since it is a dangerous procedure, there is a lot to prepare..”
“take your time.”
“What if you fail? You could go blind.”
I could tell that he was asking to gauge my will. Because there was no such thing as blindness due to failure in Shinanjutsu. If it was a procedure with such risks, I would not have dared to offer it to the Heavenly Demon..
“If there is a patient who fails the magician, it will be because of my fate..”
The doctor laughed at my belief and took out the materials needed for the procedure from the secret safe..
Immediately after, we lit soothing incense and disinfected our needles. Several drugs were mixed and some were boiled and cooled..
Meanwhile, I was lying on the bed with my top off, holding a warm, medicinally scented cloth over my eyes..
“Okay then, let's get started..”
“i look forward to.”
He put several medications in my eyes at different times. Some were as clear as water, and some were as red as blood. There was a green liquid like poison, and there was also a blue liquid like my sword. I completely trusted Ma Yi, so I trusted my eyes with peace of mind..
After injecting several drugs into the eyes, the horse doctor placed acupuncture needles. Saliva was poured not only around the eyes but also on the face and chest..
“Now, take a nap..”
My eyes closed automatically. I spoke with my heart to the Heavenly Demon Guardian God. You too, relax and sleep well for today..
I slept well for the first time in a long time.
I slept so soundly that I wonder how long it has been since I last slept this well..
When I woke up, all the saliva I had put on my face and body had already been recovered..
Ma Yi was sitting at the desk reading a book, and when I woke up, he walked towards me..
“how do you feel?”
“great.”
“The eyes?”
“it's better.”
My eyes really became clearer. My eyesight, which was originally good, got even better, and my vision was very clear. It felt like I was coming out of a fog, but to add a little bit of exaggeration, the surroundings were so clear that I felt like I had lived with my eyes closed all this time..
“Follow me.”
I left the secret room with him and went up to the first floor. We stood side by side at the window. the sun was in the sky.
“Look at the sun.”
Because I was looking directly at the sun, my eyes were dazzling, but it wasn't dazzling at all..
“What is it like??”
“It's not dazzling.”
“Look far over there.”
Things in the distance that would not have been visible before were clearly visible. It looked amazingly good. And when I strained my eyes, I saw everything that shouldn't be seen..
“It looks good. You can even see ants crawling on the branches over there..”
Ma Yi laughed at my words..
“It's not a joke.”
“I know, it's not a joke. I laughed with joy.”
“Oh, this is really amazing..”
“Now, follow me again.”
This time, the doctor took me to a dark room in a secret underground room..
The vision that was blurred only when the internal power was raised was clearly visible without the internal power being raised..
“It looks good. I can see everything clearly, the medicine bottle over there and the picture on the wall..”
“Okay, the procedure was a complete success. Your eyes are reborn.”
“thank you thank you.”
Even when I wanted to practice Shinanjutsu, my main purpose was to avoid the eyes of the Pungcheon religious leader. So I guess I didn't have much expectations about the effects of this new eye technique..
But Shinanjutsu was much more amazing than I thought. These are the only words to describe this state..
my eyes were wide open.
I came out of the dark room and bowed to Ma Yi..
“thank you.”
The embarrassed doctor helped me up..
“Why is this happening??”
“The old man used a secret technique on me that can be used once in a lifetime. I will definitely repay this favor by keeping my promise..”
“Thank you. When you become a cult leader, I will tell you who to kill..”
Ma Yi held my hand firmly, and I also gave strength..
As I left Ma Yi's residence, I saw different things everywhere. It really felt like a new world had opened up..
Suddenly this thought occurred to me.
‘The same goes for blood stabilization water and Shinanjutsu. Pungcheongyo and my eyes were intertwined like fate. Anyway, thank you, Master Pungcheon..’
In this way, the Pungcheon religious leader received a mysterious thank you..
* * *
I realized once again how important it is to have good eyesight when it comes to martial arts..
Herbivore became more sophisticated, and the more sophisticated it became, the stronger it became..
In fact, a greater help than this will come in practice. You will avoid attacks that were previously unavoidable, and you will see opportunities that you could not see before..
It will also be of great help when running at a fast pace. I was worried that my eyesight would be able to handle the extreme speed if I later achieved great success, but now that worry is gone. Because I have the most powerful eyes a human can have..
After leaving the Hwangcheongak work to Seo Dae-ryong, I stayed in the training hall for a while and had time for my martial arts skills and body to adjust to the new eyes..
After being immersed in martial arts training for a while, I visited Ian for the first time in a while..
“Ian, let’s play!”
Ian was absorbed in martial arts training..
“No! You have to practice it over and over again twenty times..”
“What kind of herbivorous training do you do 20 times a day??”
“Sixty times a day. Twenty evening retreats.”
“oh my god. I'm sick, I'm sick.”
“I'm already sick. It's a disease where you can't sleep if you don't practice..”
“Let's just rest for today. If you go and have a drink with me, you'll sleep well..”
“I'm done.”
“How many times are left??”
“Eight times. If you interrupt me like that, it will take longer..”
I pouted my mouth and watched her practicing martial arts..
“My back turned less..”
“the left side is empty.”
“faster this time.”
As I corrected her posture, I felt again that Ian was very talented in martial arts. She understood quickly and learned well..
I watched her eat a couple more times, then felt that I had nothing to say today and fell into the practice of Cheonma Defense..
The martial art that I trained the most in the process of dealing with the Demon Lord was the Heavenly Demon Defense Sword. The more you learn the Cheonma Self-Defense Technique, the more it feels new..
As always, he connects with me most deeply. It felt like I was learning a living martial art. Well, communicating this deeply may be something that wakes me up from my sleep..
How many times did I repeat the training of the Heavenly Demon Tiger God like that??
When I opened my eyes, I saw Ian looking at me from a distance..
“It's all over?”
“yes. I filled it all twenty times..”
“Let's go have a drink! I feel like I'm starving to death.”
“of course. Because you starved for three full days..”
“what? Three days?”
“yes. You had a good luck breakfast for three days..”
“I?”
“It was three days ago that you came to see me. It seemed like you were in a trance. I didn't speak to you on purpose..”
I was shocked. I don't think I've practiced even one session, let alone a few sessions..
“I guess I slept?”
“I checked to see if that was the case, but he wasn't sleeping. He was muttering something to himself..”
I really must have been in a trance. I couldn’t remember anything about the training..
“wait for a sec.”
I sat down and performed the Cheonma Self-Defense Technique once. The machine operated much more smoothly and accurately than before..
I got up from my seat and was smiling brightly. There has been great progress in the Cheonma Self-defense Gong. It seems that the training that has been going on for a while has accumulated and led to the elevation of the state through this trance..
“You had success?”
You can tell just by looking at my expression. I smiled broadly and nodded..
“Enough to buy a nice meal.”
“Congratulations, master..”
“thanks. Thanks to you.”
“Why is it thanks to me??”
“If you hadn't been so stubborn about continuing the training to the end, I wouldn't have sat next to you and fallen into a trance..”
“Ah, I see! Buy me a meal!”
“Buy it, I'll buy you everything you want to eat.!”
I quickly left the training center with Ian..
“You starved too?”
“no. I ate rice.”
But Ian’s stomach was growling..
I ate breakfast while starving, but she wasn't the type of person to eat alone. I probably stopped practicing for three days out of fear that it might disturb my trance..
“Regretful gomtaengi.”
“Nope. If you were truly remorseful, you wouldn't have been caught starving. By sneaking around like this, I'm showing off how loyal a subordinate I am, right? Rather, I used it as a golden opportunity to score points..”
“It's a fox, it's a fox.”
“Of course, there are still a lot of tails hidden away..”
I had a good laugh.
“It's been a while since I walked with you like this..”
“I see.”
“It's good, as expected.”
As expected, adding one word really made people feel better. Me too, Ian..
I went into Magachon Pungryu Bar with Ian..
“welcome! Long time no see, Gakju..”
Seeing Cho Chun-bae greet me warmly reminded me of his cooking and made me even hungrier..
“Please give it to me quickly!”
“Yes, I'm running light air.!”
After giving the drink first, Cho Chun-bae ran to the kitchen..
We started off with a drink on an empty stomach..
“Kyaaa! kill.”
“Ugh! It's poisonous. I'm really dying.”
After a while, the food came out and we gorged it all without paying attention to anyone else..
We patted our swollen bellies and talked about martial arts over drinks. She asked me everything I was curious about, and I answered sincerely as much as I knew..
My Bicheongeombeop was at a standstill after the Ten Star Greatness was broken, and I thought that it would be good if the new eye surgery I received this time would have a positive effect..
As we talked about martial arts, the topic naturally turned to Seo Dae-ryong..
“By the way, Inspector Seo is doing well.?”
“I'll be fine. I also haven't noticed that I've been practicing lately..”
“Everyone is busy.”
“I don't know, but I'm sure I'll do well. Work and training.”
“It's amazing to see Inspector Seo getting along well with Mr. Doma..”
“I don't know if you're doing well. Because I get scolded by Manne, my pillow might get wet every night..”
Ian laughed and said it was fun..
“Probably not. Secretly, Mr. Thomas seems like a nice person..”
“But you can't let down your guard. Just because he is a good person to Inspector Seo, there is no guarantee that he will be a good person to you as well. The opponent is Mazon. be careful.”
“Yes, I'll keep that in mind..”
“Someday you have to win with your skills.”
For a moment, Ian was shocked..
“It's me?”
Like before, people didn't say, 'How can I beat Mazon with my skills?' Since I was taught the art of flying swords, such words are disrespectful to me and my father..
“I'll try my best.”
“You know? Poor skills die first. If you have already taken a step, you must go to the end..”
“yes!”
I raised my glass and she drank with me..
“And once the Bicheon swordsmanship reaches a certain level, let's gather the subordinates of the Gwiyeongdae in earnest. If you get the leader level right, the rest will be easy..”
“Are there any people you have in mind??”
I nodded honestly..
“Maybe one or two. I'll have to come out later and hire him..”
“who is it?”
“If you knew it now, you would just be surprised. I'll let you know when the time comes.”
“As you say that, my heart is already racing..”
“In that case, there is a good solution called alcohol.?”
The sound of clinking glasses was as cheerful as our mood..
“I order more drinks and more snacks..”
“It's a pity, but I think I'll have to stop drinking today.?”
Ian followed my gaze and looked down at the first floor..
Seo Dae-ryong quickly came into the bar, went up to our seat on the second floor, and reported on the new subject I would have to cook from now on..
“The leader of Pungcheon Church has just arrived at our school..”
