Episode 337: I thought my sword would hurt less.
How could you not be confused by Wu Xiaoqiu?
There was one reason he hesitated.
The exact same problem that Gongchan had.
‘Is this really the leader of the Demonic Cult?’
good night. Let’s make a hundred concessions and say that the demonic cult leader came alone. Let’s just say that the appearance can also be a mess.
But the reason you rushed like this was to save the bar owner and his family? You stand and make those lowly people sit on chairs? They even shake the snow off Jaengjasu’s shoulders?
This was something that could never have happened in Wu Xiaoqiu’s common sense.
‘I am not the leader of the Demonic Cult. That can’t be possible.’
He was sure.
But I couldn’t refuse the other person’s request. Because the martial arts he showed in the process of suppressing Gongchan earlier was not fake. I couldn’t see it in detail because I was inside the building, but I saw Gongchan being beaten without even using his hands. It wasn’t average skill.
“If Lord Xiao wants to come down, I have to come down.”
Looking at him slowly walking down the stairs, Geommugeuk spoke coldly.
“You should not come down because I tell you to come down, but because there are people under you whose life or death is at stake here. “Instead of coming down leisurely like that, you should jump down and take care of your subordinates first.”
Wu Xiaoqiu was irritated.
The same goes for what he said earlier when he called out his name and told him to come down, and also for what he said now when he couldn’t utter a word of rebuttal. It was shameful. The envoys were watching, and even the village residents were watching, so their anger boiled over.
Because of that feeling, the five people sitting behind the sword dance were more annoying to my eyes.
‘Trivial things!’
This was the first time I had suffered such humiliation from my subordinates. Once this incident passes, I will never leave them alone.
Except for Zhao Chunbae and Yang Yin, the other three people did not dare to look at Wu Xiaoqiu’s gaze.
The person who wielded the greatest power in this region was the head of the Hwangryongpyo country. But now they are sitting and Gukju is standing.
“it hurts.”
Yangin said to his younger brother. Wu Xiaoqiu’s eyes were so fearful that she held her sister’s hand too tightly.
“sorry.”
“Seon-ah, it’s okay now.”
Yang Yin spoke confidently even though Wu Xiaoqiu was listening. If I didn’t know, I wouldn’t have known. I believed that it was really okay because the whole person was sure that it was the leader of the Demonic Cult.
Yangin looked at Jo Chunbae and asked with his eyes.
‘It’s okay, right?’
Cho Chun-bae nodded vigorously and gave strength to his wife’s consolation.
“Don’t worry, sister-in-law.”
“Brother-in-law!”
“You can enjoy this moment because it is a moment you will never have again in your life.”
Cho Chun-bae knows. What kind of person is blocking their path like a castle wall right now? Even if the castle wall falls, the back does not fall.
This is the person who had the Mazon come to his shabby pub and leave writing on the wall. He is the one who brought his heavenly horse to his tavern.
It is a completely different strength from the strength of martial arts. The only leader of the Demonic Cult that has never existed and will never exist in the future.
In that sense, Cho Chun-bae developed a desire to live a long life. What will it be like when Sogyoju becomes the Heavenly Demon? What about the Church of the Heavenly Demon led by Sogyoju? What will happen to Murim, where he is the Heavenly Demon? He wanted to see it all.
Yangin quietly looked at her husband.
It was a husband who never said anything about the bar business. How could she not know how difficult it was to deal with her drunken customers?
However, things changed after Su Jiao-ju said he came to the tavern. On days when there was a sword dance or a mazon, my husband’s eyes sparkled like stars and he excitedly talked about what happened that day. The eyes with which I look at the sword dance show are the same. Today was the brightest star.
The sword dance returned to a polite and calm manner. The main goal of this meeting was to clear Jonghak’s name before punishing him.
“Now that you’ve come down, let’s listen together. Aren’t you curious about the state? “Why did Gong Pyo-du try to murder and destroy the innocent Jaengjasu?”
Wu Xiaoqiu immediately refuted.
“I wasn’t trying to kill him, I was trying to cut off the hand that was stealing. And the killer planthopper? “Cut off your wrists doesn’t mean you’ll die, right?”
Geommugeuk was convinced that Gongchan tried to kill Jonghak.
“Can you get both hands cut off here and make it to the hospital alive? Let’s say I cut off both of your hands. Are you confident that you can survive by running to the doctor’s office without using light attack? “A person who has not learned martial arts would faint the moment their hand is cut off.”
Wu Xiaoqiu could not refute. The bleeding is so severe that even you will not be able to survive without proper help.
The residents who were watching looked at each other and murmured. They were summoned with this mindset, thinking they were just going to steal and cut off their hands as punishment, but a completely unexpected truth was coming to light.
The reporters were already suspicious that there was some kind of conspiracy in this incident based on Gongchan and Woo Sochu’s reactions. First, I watched. Because the opponent was a very special demon.
Sword Dance Geuk spoke to Gongchan and Woo Sochu.
“You tried to kill not only a man’s life, but also his honor.”
Jonghak let out a long sigh. When Geomugeuk said those words in front of everyone, I felt like something that had been blocked in my chest was being opened. What was most painful was being falsely accused of stealing. It was even more so because I had never been greedy for other people’s things in my life.
Geomgeuk approached and patted the snow that had accumulated on Jonghak’s shoulder once more.
Mr. Yoon watched in silence and spoke softly to his eldest daughter.
“He may be young, but he seems like an adult.”
There was something that only the eyes of an old man who had experienced all the hardships of the world could see.
Meanwhile, Geommugeuk was raising a question in front of Wu Sochu.
“Woo Gukju. I have one question. If you look at that person, Gong Pyo-du, he has a short temper and is cruel. Why didn’t he kill him during his act? “He’s got the personality to do that.”
Gongchan was looking at Geommugeuk and Usochu with a face full of fear.
Geommugeuk looked straight into Gongchan’s eyes and asked directly.
“Didn’t you have to come back and report to someone?”
Who is the person to whom the leader should report? Naturally, everyone’s eyes turned to Wu Xiaoqiu.
“Was that person Gukju Wu?”
Gongchan did not answer. He could already tell by the reaction.
“You can’t say no right away.”
Then Wu Sochu spoke quickly.
“Nothing was said to be correct. “How can I give you a complete answer when you are threatening me as if I will kill you?”
I could feel the sword dance. Just as he was about to answer, Usochu sent a message to Gongchan.
“What did your governor send the message? Did you threaten me with my life? He said he would give you a lot of money if you just got over this hurdle? Did you say you would at least order me some representative bean? Or all three?”
Gongchan looked at the sword dance with a surprised face.
‘What is interest?’
Surprisingly, it was all three.
When Gongchan returned, the person he reported to was Woo Sochu. This incident was completely carried out under the orders of the state.
It was true that the news came a little while ago and Gukju threatened him. He whipped him and told him that if he confessed, he would die by his own hands, while at the same time promising him a lot of money and a carrot to become his representative.
Of course, since the opponent was a sword dance, there was no way it would work.
“I’m sorry, but it’s no use giving me hundreds of millions of dollars instead of ten million. “If you don’t speak honestly here, you will die by my hands.”
Then Woo Sochu persuaded Gongchan.
“If that person is the leader of the Demonic Cult, he will never be able to kill you. Mine kills the leader of a political faction? Is that also the leader of the Demonic Cult? If that happens, Moorim will be in an uproar. “Trust me.”
In the end, Gongchan did not open his mouth. If you overcome this hurdle, you will earn a huge amount of money and even the position of CEO. Even if it’s just for his own survival, Usochu will save him.
Geommugeuk’s eyes became cold and revealed his magical energy.
“but. To put it nicely, if someone had understood, they wouldn’t have done this in the first place.”
Magi flew only towards Gongchan and not other people.
Gongchan looked around. He was standing in the sea. For a moment I thought he was beautiful. He began to be dragged down the water.
A black abyss awaited, and nothing could be seen. It wasn’t an illusion. I felt like I was really drowning and I couldn’t breathe. How can this be done with just prayer?
It was so painful. It would be better if he lost consciousness, but Geommugeuk’s prayers reflected Geommugeuk’s thoughts exactly.
The excruciating pain continued. To bring about his death, he was again given a few gulp of air, brought to his senses, and then dragged out again to the agony of suffocation.
‘please! please! ‘I’d rather kill you!’
It was so painful that instead of asking for help, the first thing that came out was asking to be killed.
At that time, the voice of Geommugeuk was heard.
-Do you want to live?
will? Loyalty? If only I could breathe now, I could give my soul.
‘Yes, please save me!’
-Then tell me honestly.
He was out of breath, opened his eyes and shouted.
“The person who gave the order is the Lord of the Nation!”
Wu Xiaoqiu couldn’t say anything. It seemed as if he was admitting it.
But he wasn’t admitting it. Without anyone knowing, Geommugeuk had subdued his blood and demon blood.
The same situation as before, when they tried to cut off Jonghak’s hand, suppressed Ahyeol and Mahyeol and made it look like they were admitting guilt, was recreated.
Wu Xiaoqiu was astonished. No matter how strong the opponent’s martial arts skills were, he couldn’t have his blood power subdued without him even feeling it.
‘You’re a real Xiaojiao lord!’
Meanwhile, questions about sword dance continued to Gongchan.
“Then who is the man with the mole on his forehead?”
“I don’t know either. Gukju asked me to meet him, so we met. “I came to hear from him when and where I would receive the next gift.”
“Do you know what the target is?”
“I do not know.”
“When are you going to receive the next ticket?”
“I decided to receive it at Cheongsu Forest three days later.”
Geommugeuk asked something more important than that.
“Why did you try to cut off the servant’s hand?”
“When we reported that Jonghak saw our meeting, Gukju suggested that we cut off his hand and deal with it.”
It was the moment when Jonghak was completely cleared of his charges.
The eyes of the governors and residents turned to Gukju. His face turned red and he could not say anything.
“Who is the person involved in this matter?”
“It’s just me. Other messengers just do as they are told. No, neither do I. “I just moved as the head of the country ordered.”
He passed all responsibility on to the state governor.
“Now that I’ve told you everything, are you letting me live?”
Gongchan wasn’t the only one who was nervous about what kind of answer he would get. Jo Chun-bae’s family, who were behind the sword dance performance, were even more nervous.
In particular, Jonghak prayed with his heart, ‘Please don’t spare the author!’ This is because he was afraid that if he spared Gongchan, he might take revenge on him later.
“why me?”
When asked about the sword dance, Gongchan raised his voice.
“Didn’t you say that if you tell me everything, you will save my life?”
“You didn’t say it when I told you to, right? You said it only after I pressured you with magic, right? no?”
Gongchan could tell. In the first place, he had no intention of saving himself. The moment I was about to spit out curses and swear words at Geommugeuk, Ahhyeol was already suppressed. It was a skill that would make a ghost cry, no, even a ghost could not move due to the subdued blood and demon blood.
There was no advice to be born good in your next life. The sword dance drama completely denied Gongchan’s life.
Whoa!
Geommugeuk’s merciless fist flew towards him.
Gurgling!
At the same time, there was a sound of thunder as if heavenly punishment was falling.
Wow.
Gongchan, whose ribs were shattered by the blow, was thrown into the wall of a building far away. He was already dead before he was smashed into the wall.
“You tried to cut off the hand of an innocent person and even cut off my friend’s tongue, so you were already dead.”
This was what I told the residents and voters to listen to. Because they needed to know exactly what these deaths meant. Only then will Jonghak’s family be able to continue living here.
The voters and residents who were watching thought it was a reasonable result.
Jonghak breathed a sigh of relief.
Yang Seon hugged her husband tightly because she knew how he felt.
Yangin felt it. The moment she said that Geomugeuk was her friend, her husband’s hand that was holding her began to tighten.
Cho Chun-bae said in a trembling voice.
“You are too much of a friend for me.”
Then Geommugeuk looked back at him and smiled.
“of course. Aren’t I the person who will become the Heavenly Demon in the future? “He is a friend worthy of everyone.”
Jo Chun-bae was in a good mood because of the jokes of the sword dance that put his mind at ease.
“You have no idea how grateful I am.”
Cho Chun-bae will live his entire life with a grateful heart.
Then Geommugeuk said something unexpected.
“I should be the one to thank you.”
“yes?”
“Rather, the owner saved me.”
Geommugeuk gave Jo Chun-bae a wide-eyed look, not knowing what it meant, and then turned around.
Thank you, master, for allowing me to protect my magic spell.
Geomjugeuk walked in front of Usochu.
“Fortunately, the controversy we were trying to solve seems to have been well covered.”
That wasn’t the only thing that was solved. Wu Xiaoqiu’s blood pressure was also relieved before he knew it.
“you! Do you know what you did? “I have now killed the head of the Hwangryongpyo Kingdom!”
He looked at the messengers and shouted.
“This is separate from Gongchan’s sin! Mine killed a member of the political faction! “It’s an attack by the demonic cult’s political faction!”
His cries rang hollow. No one agreed with what he said. The moment it was revealed that he had given the order to cut off Jonghak’s wrists, the authority of the head of Hwangryongpyo had already disappeared. He is nothing but a hypocrite who tried to kill innocent people for his own benefit.
“If you touch me, a war will break out! “There will be countless victims because of you!”
Compared to his excitement, the sword dance performance was calm.
“It’s already been revealed that you don’t understand the situation and that you’re someone you shouldn’t say nice things about, so I’ll do it my way. No, I guess it’s your way.”
At that time, Usochu was wondering what that meant.
Sigh.
His left hand stretched forward of its own accord. Since the demonic blood had already been suppressed, he could not refuse.
“What are you trying to do?”
“What you were trying to do. “You gathered people together like this to show that if you commit a crime, you will be punished, right?”
When Geomugeuk extended his hand, a sword was pulled out from the waist of Gongchan, who was dead in the distance. The sword flew through the air and fell into Geommugeuk’s hand.
“I thought my sword was so sharp that it would hurt less.”
Wu Xiaoqiu, who realized the intention of the sword dance, was terrified.
“stop! don’t do it! stop!”
“are you okay. You said that, right? “They say you won’t die if your wrists are cut off.”
“Why are you doing this, Lord Xiao! Lord Sogyo! please!”
“Okay, then I’ll give you a chance.”
Words as scary as his cold eyes flowed from Geommugeuk’s mouth.
“If you don’t answer my question for three counts, I will cut off your left hand and ask you again.”
Geommugeuk asked, holding his sword high as if to cut at any moment.
“Who is the man with the mole on his forehead? one two… … .”
