Episode 338: In a place where you can’t die even if you want to.
“three!”
After counting to three, Geommugeuk swung his sword down without hesitation.
Wu Xiaoqiu shouted urgently.
“It’s not a dot!”
Easy profit.
The sword that was being struck stopped in midair.
Faaat.
My wrist was cut and blood flowed out. Fortunately, he only got cuts on his skin and his bones were not cut.
‘You crazy guy! I really tried to cut it!’
Wu Xiaoqiu’s stomach became cold. It was the first time in my life that I had been so surprised, so I could say that it was a very comfortable life.
“It’s not a dot?”
“That on your forehead, it’s not a mole, it’s a tattoo.”
“Tattoo? “What kind of tattoo is it?”
Wu Sochu hesitated.
“one two.”
This time the answer came when I counted two.
“Snake’s head.”
“A snake?”
“It has a snake’s head carved on its forehead. “Because it was black, they must have mistaken it for a dot.”
There was only one place in Murim where crazy people with snake heads carved on their foreheads gathered.
“Could it be the Black Satan?”
When the Black Satan was mentioned, not only the priests but also the residents all became thoughtful. In particular, Jonghak got goosebumps all over his body at the fact that what he saw was the symbol of the Black Satan.
The Black Satan was a group of people belonging to the Sa Sect who committed all kinds of bad things. Among the evildoers of Sapa, they were truly infamous.
“Did you receive a sign from the Black Satan?”
Wu Xiaoqiu lowered his head and was unable to answer.
The expressions of the messengers completely hardened. One of them, a middle-aged man, could not bear it and shouted.
“Gukju, is that true?”
Wu Xiaoqiu raised his head and glared at him. I could read his inner thoughts in his eyes.
No matter how wrong I may have been, how dare you criticize Gukju?
He was truly an incorrigible person.
In addition to the person who asked the question earlier, other messengers also glared at Wu Xiaoqiu with cold eyes. You received a gift from the Black Satan and not from any other place?
In the end, Usochu couldn’t bear it anymore and shouted.
“It was all for Pyoguk! “What the hell do you guys know?”
Geommugeuk tapped his wrist with his sword.
Wu Sochu, who had been shouting loudly at the messengers, was startled.
“Do not cut! please!”
Seeing that frightened sight, the messengers sighed. It was shameful to have such a person as the head of the nation.
“What is the target?”
“I don’t know.”
“No way? No matter how blinded he was by money, there is no way someone like you would have joined hands with the Black Satan without knowing what the target was.”
Geommugeuk raised his hand.
“one two… … .”
“I don’t know, I really don’t know.”
“three.”
Shhh.
Suddenly!
The sword passed through his wrist.
Tuk.
The moment he saw the hand falling to the floor, Usochu’s eyes widened. Still, I did it anyway.
Fuaaaaaaaa!
Usochu screamed as blood spurted from his wrist.
“Aaaah!”
The people watching turned their heads and closed their eyes.
Jo Chun-bae and Jong-hak opened their eyes and watched the scene. If the sword dance had not come, the hand that fell on the floor would have been Jonghak’s hand.
The blood spurting out stopped. Geommugeuk blew the earth wind and suppressed his acupuncture points.
At that time, Usochu was about to spit out a curse of resentment towards Geommugeuk.
Slurp.
His right hand spontaneously rose into the air.
Wu Xiaoqiu was distraught.
“no! stop! “Stop, you crazy bastard!”
Geommugeuk counted the numbers again.
“one two!”
Wu Xiaoqiu shouted.
“Children!”
There was silence for a moment. An unexpected answer came out.
“Children are targets?”
“exactly. “I put the children who had put them to sleep through the great method of returning to sleep, put them in boxes, and moved them to wherever they wanted.”
When I used the ear eating method, I fell asleep like a dead person, so I was able to move it around like an object for a few days. The box containing the child would have been filled with other soft items to camouflage it. In this way, many children can be moved quickly and without being noticed.
“Please take me to the doctor.”
He picked up his fallen hand and spoke earnestly. The person who could put that on would have to be a magician.
Geommugeuk’s reaction was cold.
“Why did I entrust that job to you? Would it be okay to use the Sapa side symbol? Or, the Black Division could move it on its own. If you answer quickly, you will be able to go quickly.”
“I asked the same thing. Then the Murim Alliance found out about this and said they were being monitored.”
I remembered the sword dance. He had heard of a story about the Black Satan accumulating wealth by kidnapping children with outstanding skeletal skills and selling them for huge sums of money. I remember the incident as something that happened much later than now.
“I said that the Murim Alliance’s Great Demon Lord personally went out to investigate. So I said I was saving his body.”
The Great Lord of Myeolma is Jinhagun, the grandson of the Murim Lord. There was a change in Jin Ha-gun’s actions after meeting himself. As his fate changes, the fate of martial arts will also change as a result.
“please! Please take me with you.”
“There are still questions left.”
“I will go to the doctor’s office and give you an answer.”
“no! “Answer here.”
Wu Xiaoqiu’s eyes were full of hatred and resentment that he could not hide.
“How much more money did you get?”
“I received ten times more than the original amount.”
After answering, Wu Xiaoqiu felt eyes on him.
When he turned his head, he saw that everyone was looking at him. Both the residents and the envoys had families. He was a father raising a child, and he was someone’s child. That’s why those eyes couldn’t have been kind.
“You didn’t think it would be different… … .”
Before Wusochu could even finish speaking.
Easy profit.
Suddenly!
This time, without even counting to three, Geommugeuk cut off his right hand.
He screamed as he saw the blood gushing out. Both of his hands were cut off and he was in a state of insanity.
“This is what you were trying to do to that man. “You committed a sin.”
He was screaming and trying to stop the bleeding in his arm with his chin.
That time when he was running wild like a crazy person!
Kurrrr! Boom!
The sound of thunder was heard, announcing divine punishment.
Pow!
Sword Dancer’s fist hit his face. Usochu, with his face sunken, fell backwards without losing his breath. The sword dance did not allow him to utter his last word.
Cho Chun-bae and his family were surprised, embarrassed, and relieved.
The sword dance was sent away first by the residents.
“I think you can go back now. And since this matter is related to the Black Satan, it would be best to keep today’s matter quiet for the time being.”
As long as it’s related to the Black Satan, no one will ever spread the story even if you push them to spread the rumor.
When they all left, Geommugeuk asked the priests.
“If I want to talk about my affairs, who would I be able to talk to now?”
Then the eyes of the messengers turned to one person. The person everyone recognized was the same person who earlier asked Wu Xiaoqiu if it was really like that.
“This is Pyodu Hwangwon (黃源).”
“For the time being, you will serve as temporary head of the country.”
“I will.”
Originally, I would not have intervened in the affairs of the Hwangryongpyo State from now on, but since it was a place where Jonghak was a prominent figure, I decided to pay attention to their future actions.
“Please lend me at least a dozen costumes for the Emperor of the Hwangryongpyo Bureau.”
“May I ask why?”
“As you may have heard, I said that we were supposed to receive the goods at Cheongsu Forest three days later. “I plan to take the soldiers from our branch and save their children first.”
“Wouldn’t they hear what happened here?”
“So if they don’t come out, we can’t do it. Instead, if we are lucky and go to Cheongsu Forest before this news, we will at least be able to save the children on this cargo.”
Hwang Won looked at the sword dance and asked.
“Why are you trying to save me? you are… … .”
He is the leader of a demonic cult. Aren’t you people more cruel than the Safa bastards?
I asked with that in mind, and a surprising answer came out.
“Because they are children. “Even if no one else knows, shouldn’t we at least save the children?”
If it weren’t for the performance that Geommugeuk showed today, I would never have accepted this statement as it is. But the reporters saw it all from beginning to end.
“Can we discuss this among ourselves for a moment?”
“Sure.”
Hwang Won talked with the governors and came to an unexpected conclusion.
“We will go to the Blue Forest together. If familiar people don’t go, he’ll get suspicious. “He might not show up in the first place.”
A few delegates came forward. It seems that some people, but not all, volunteered.
“It could be dangerous.”
“I know.”
“But why do you want to go?”
“We are warriors of a political faction. Even though we are people who carry other people’s goods, we are still political people. “This is a golden opportunity to save kidnapped children, and we can’t pretend not to know.”
And although I didn’t say it, I had the belief that we could handle this matter well if we were together with the small sect leader of this demonic cult.
“Please help me restore the reputation of the country that Pyo Gukju dropped to the ground.”
“The Black Satan may retaliate later.”
It seemed like he had thought about that part as well.
“As soon as I rescue the child from the Blue Forest, I will report this incident to the Murim Alliance and ask for their help.”
“Okay. “Let’s do that.”
Geommugeuk accepted their request. If they work together, it will definitely be advantageous in many ways to get things done.
After obtaining a set of clothes from Hwang Won and changing into them, we promised to meet at Cheongsu Forest three days later.
For Geommugeuk, a carriage was rented from Pyoguk.
“Now, let’s get in. “We have places to go.”
Mr. Yoon, Yang In, Yang Seon, Cho Chun-bae, and even Jong-hak all rode in the carriage.
“I will drive the carriage.”
Jonghak, a master craftsman, came forward, but declined the sword dance performance.
“Take care of your wounds. “If you don’t take care of it now, you will suffer for the rest of your life.”
They forced him into the carriage.
Cho Chun-bae and his family sat across from each other in the carriage. Sitting across from each other in one space like this, I finally felt relieved that my family had escaped the crisis safely.
The voice of the person who made this miraculous thing possible was heard from the coach seat.
“Then let’s leave.”
* * *
The carriage ran without stopping for half a day.
The carriage entered the forest road, made a pathless path, and stopped somewhere.
“You need to get down and walk for a while.”
Geommugeuk took them into the forest. After a while, a foggy place appeared.
“From now on, will you please follow where I step?”
The women did not know the reason, but Cho Chun-bae and Jong-hak, who had seen and heard a lot, did. That they are trying to pass the Jinbeop.
The sword dance was performed very slowly out of consideration for the older Mr. Yoon. Following his guidance, we passed through the Jinbeop and there was a manor with a spectacular view of the winter waterfall.
A middle-aged man greeted them with polite courtesy.
“welcome.”
Cho Chun-bae could sense that he was a master of the Demonic Cult.
The scenery of the snowy manor was so beautiful.
“I have never seen such a wonderful manor.”
“Me too, sister.”
Yangin and Yangseon were impressed.
Jo Chun-bae asked Geommugeuk.
“Where are we?”
“This is our school’s safe house. It is not a general safe house, but a special safe house that only Mazon and above can use. “It’s a place where you can’t die even if you want to.”
Everyone was surprised to hear that it was a safe house belonging to the Church of the Heavenly Demon. They had no idea that the sword dance would bring them to the safe house. Besides, you’re not going special?
“I thought it would be a good idea to be careful since the Black Devils are involved. Please rest here comfortably until this matter is over.”
The sword dance absolutely took care of the safety of Jo Chun-bae’s family. I eliminated every single one of them.
“How can we be in such a precious place?”
“Because he is a friend of the Soo sect leader of the Heavenly Demon Church.”
“How on earth are you trying to impress me by doing this?”
“I’m looking forward to free snacks at Pungryu Bar.”
Cho Chun-bae was so sorry that he didn’t know what to do. It was a blessing that he could not make all the free snacks throughout his life.
The reason Geommugeuk brought them in was not only because of safety.
“When was the last time you went on a trip?”
Cho Chun-bae was taken aback by the unexpected question. When was it? He didn’t even have to think.
Cho Chun-bae gave his wife an expression of shame.
“Then has the owner ever closed the bar to rest?”
“doesn’t exist.”
There were times when I rested because something happened at home, but at least I never rested because of myself. The door was opened every day. I opened it even though it hurt, and I opened it even though it was hard. There were some days when I really wanted to rest. There was also a day like that.
“Master Xiao? no way?”
“yes. “Think of it as a trip here, and think of it as your first vacation in a long time, and take a good rest.”
Cho Chun-bae didn’t know what to say. He was so moved by the person that he was rather dazed.
“To me, it’s an easy thing to do, just keep your mouth shut. It’s not that big of a deal, so don’t stress about it. “Then I will come pick you up as soon as I finish work.”
Before leaving, Geommugeuk conveyed several matters to the middle-aged Mine. And he gave his final command:
“Treat these people like you treat me.”
The middle-aged Mine bowed his head politely.
In a flash, the sword dance disappeared into a dot in the distance.
Cho Chun-bae and his family stood still and watched.
The middle-aged Mine who manages this place guided them with a friendly smile.
“Now, please come in.”
“Oh my, yes.”
Cho Chun-bae and his family entered the manor. From the carpet on the floor, to the furniture in the hallway, to every single painting on the wall. All of them were precious and luxurious items.
“I’ve never been to a place like this in my life.”
Could it be that there are only sheep people? It was everyone’s first time in a place like this.
As I passed by, I saw Suksu preparing food in the open kitchen, and it was food you would only get at a high-end restaurant.
Middle-aged Mine lives in Yoon’s room, Jo Chun-bae’s room, and Jong-hak’s room. Three separate rooms were prepared for us. The room was more luxuriously decorated.
“Can we do this?”
Cho Chun-bae shook his head in response to Yang-in’s question.
“I don’t know either.”
Yang Seon laid Jong Hak down on a bed covered with a white, fluffy blanket.
“Now rest and don’t worry about anything.”
When Geommugeuk left, a doctor from the safe house came and gave me medicine after taking a nap.
Yang Seon, who was moved by the sight, smiled brightly and said.
“Your brother-in-law is right. “It’s a moment that will never come again.”
Jo Chun-bae and Yang-in came into his room.
Mr. Yoon gave the largest room to his eldest son-in-law.
The two sat on the bed and stared blankly out the window. It was a truly stormy day. Cho Chun-bae wondered if he was dreaming.
Yangin also felt the same way.
“As I live, days like this come.”
“That’s right.”
The sunset was setting beautifully outside the window far away. I couldn’t remember the last time we sat side by side like this and watched the sunset.
“You’ve had a hard time, honey.”
Today, those words entered my heart even more deeply. Okay, one word was enough. Because you can’t say this simple word, this precious hardship becomes a living hell.
“You worked hard too.”
Cho Chun-bae knows. How hard he lived with his wife, raising their children and doing all the hard work.
At that time, a fight came from outside and said,
“The meal is ready.”
The two people sat blankly for a moment in this unrealistic reality.
Then Cho Chun-bae stood up first and held out his hand to his wife.
“Ma’am, let’s go eat.”
Yangin smiled and stood up, holding her husband’s hand. It was my first vacation in my life.
“Then, shall we go and eat the meal that someone else made? “I’m going to eat a lot.”
