Episode 392: More exciting songs!
“The time has finally come.”
At the words of the sword dance, Bisain’s heart sank. How could he not know what those playful eyes were asking for? He felt that what was coming had finally come.
“I don’t know what you’re talking about.”
First of all, I grabbed him. Who would question him if he didn’t recognize this scary face? Unfortunately, his opponent was Geommugeuk.
“It’s time to keep your promise.”
Geommuyang, Jin Hagun, and Jin Ha-ryeong, who were together, expressed their curiosity because they wondered what kind of promise it was.
At the same time, I also thought this.
Poor guy, what weakness did he have again!
But now, curiosity has taken over rather than sympathy.
The same was true for Geom Woo-jin, Jin Pae-cheon, and Baek Ja-gang, who were standing a little further away.
Visain said with his eyes.
‘No way? Here? Please tell me no.’
If that was the case, I wouldn’t have even brought it up in the first place.
“I don’t think there’s a better time or place to keep that promise than now.”
The use of the expression ‘promise’ further heightened the curiosity of those around him.
Visain’s heart was beating fast. It hadn’t been beating this fast even when he was waiting under the stage to do his first dance.
The black sheep said quietly.
“I don’t know what’s going on, but don’t embarrass your Majesty for no reason.”
“It was he who made that promise.”
Visain emptied his glass with an anxious look on his face.
“You won’t give up, will you?”
“What would you do if you were me?”
What I didn’t like was what I didn’t like. What I had to admit was what I had to admit. What if, on the contrary, the opportunity to make fun of the sword dance came?
“I can’t give up.”
“If I miss this opportunity, I will probably regret today for the rest of my life.”
Visan also sympathized. The people gathered today are people who are not easy to gather together again in one’s lifetime.
But that’s why he didn’t say anything. Visain gave another reason.
“The guys behind today’s meeting might be watching.”
“Maybe so.”
“What do you want me to do in this situation?”
I was wondering if it would be okay to show someone dancing or something.
“I would rather they saw it.”
“What?”
“Even with you guys, we’re doing well. We’re living our lives well. I want to show you.”
I could tell that it wasn’t a joke, it was serious.
“If we don’t live our lives properly, then even if we get rid of them later, it won’t be a real victory. Let’s not give them any meaning.”
As always, this is what the Sword Dance Theater wants. Oh, I’ll be back soon. Where have you been? Oh, it’s nothing, so go on with what you were saying.
Visain drank again. He seemed to be contemplating whether to throw it away.
The sword dance changed its strategy.
“Little Leader.”
As Visain raised his head, Geommugeuk spoke with a gentle expression.
“It’s okay. I was just trying to tease you.”
“Really?”
“No matter how much of a promise it is, it’s hard to keep it in this situation. It’s unfortunate, but I have to give up. Come on, let’s just drink and forget about it.”
I should have been happy that I didn’t have to dance, but for some reason I wasn’t happy.
Jin Ha-ryeong asked after enduring it for a long time.
“What the hell is going on?”
“You don’t have to know.”
Then Visain suddenly said.
“I promised to dance in front of people.”
Jin Ha-ryeong froze with a gasp. Not only Jin Ha-gun, but even Geommu-yang was surprised.
Geommugeuk waved his hand at the gazes flying towards him all at once.
“Why are you looking at me! It was a promise that So Myeong-ju made alone.”
Of course, Jin Ha-ryeong did not believe it.
“No way! It must have been the devil’s temptation.”
Geommuyang and Jinhagun nodded at the same time.
“They must have pushed me from behind and made me fall into a trap!”
“The person who is trying to push me from behind is that little lord!”
“No way! He wouldn’t do that.”
“When did you see it?”
This time, Geommuyang stepped forward.
“I will apologize on behalf of my brother.”
Rather, the actions of the two people ended up helping the sword dance. Given the nature of the non-sign, it is something that cannot be hidden.
“No, I said I would chase it.”
Visain drank three glasses of alcohol in succession.
“I will chase it.”
Everyone was against the visa.
“Hold on tight!”
Starting with Jinharyeong.
“Don’t get involved with my brother.”
The sword dance was also stopped.
“Don’t overdo it.”
Jin Ha-gun also stopped him. What if he were in a different situation and he were a non-sign? Oh, it would be terrible.
“I can’t be a mean person who doesn’t even keep promises.”
“I think it would be better to become a small person.”
Jin Ha-ryeong looked at Geommu-geuk with regret.
“Look at that satisfied look.”
Then the sword dance delivered the final blow to her.
“So? You don’t want to see it?”
“… … .”
Visain jumped up from his seat. He was caught up in the atmosphere and intoxication. If I had to do it someday? Yes, let’s do it today! He also had this youthful spirit. He also wanted to show Geommugeuk that he kept his promise. In the end, he charged toward the typhoon, the tidal wave, and the lava.
Visain walked briskly towards Baekjagang River.
Since they had heard all the conversations going on in the non-signing room, Baek Ja-gang had an expression on his face like, “Are you really going to do this?”
“I made a promise to myself a while ago. I said that if I got out of this crisis, I would dance in front of people. I think I’ll keep that promise today.”
It seemed like everyone knew what had happened. There was another meaning to those words. It was a big crisis, and in the end, they overcame it together with the sword dance. It wasn’t just a promise, it wasn’t just a dance.
Baekjagang stared quietly into his disciple’s eyes.
‘Did you have this side to you?’
Visain’s face was flushed red. It was unclear whether it was from the alcohol or excitement.
“If you make a promise, you have to keep it.”
Baekjagang’s permission was granted. As expected, he had a refreshing personality.
Visain came back and asked Geommugeuk for a favor.
“Please prepare.”
“Are you really going to do it?”
Instead of showing resentment, Visan showed the eyes of a person who was prepared.
“I see a new expression on you again.”
“I was fooled by your words and came all the way here.”
“There’s still a long way to go. I’ll see your expression.”
Visain’s eyes trembled. Surprisingly, I now know that what he said was true.
Geommugeuk spoke to Jo Chun-bae downstairs from the railing.
“Master, go and call the musicians.”
“All right.”
After Kwon Ma stopped Jo Chun Bae from running out, he sent a message to the monks.
The bandits ran quickly and brought in musicians from a nearby kiru.
When the musicians arrived, Bisain went down to the first floor. Geum Woojin, Jin Paecheon, and Baek Jagang, who were on this floor, stood on the railing and watched the scene.
The four who were with Visain followed him down.
All the masters who were drinking on the first floor looked at Visain. Some of them were already drunk.
Visain told them.
“To commemorate the historic tripartite meeting today, I will dance in front of you all.”
Then everyone was surprised. When the musicians came and sat down in front of the tavern, they thought they were singing to liven up the mood. But the young master of the tavern was dancing?
The Apostolic Masters looked up at this floor. Baek Ja-gang, standing on the railing, was silently watching as if he had already given permission. In that case, there was no need to talk.
The old master of Sapa asked.
“Are you planning to perform the thousand-change, extreme killing dance?”
The Thousand-Byeon Geuk Salmu dance was a peerless divine skill of the Sapha that no one could survive after seeing it.
“no.”
“Are you planning to dance the Honwontalbaekmu (a dance that steals away one’s soul)?”
It was a dance of death that was said to make people with weak internal energy go crazy if they saw the Honwontalbaekmu.
“no.”
“Then you’re going to dance the regular sword dance?”
Usually, when people say dance, they mean sword dance performed with swords.
“No, I’m just going to dance the way normal people dance. The kind you dance on a holiday.”
The old master who asked the question, as well as the others, did not understand it at first. What do you mean, just dancing? The kind of dance that ordinary people in the world dance? You? In this place? Why?
“Our leader is drunk.”
At Nogosu’s words, the surrounding masters looked up at Baekjagang again. At the look in their eyes that seemed to indicate that they were not going to stop him, Baekjagang simply looked down without saying anything.
Not only the Sapa masters, but also the Jeongpa masters were puzzled. However, they had all had a drink and were curious about what kind of dance the Apostle Minjoo would do.
The Amazons looked at the sword dance, not the Bisin.
When Bloody Heavenly Demon shook his head and scolded him with his eyes, “Oh my, you punk!”, Geommu-geuk made a face that seemed to be wronged. Of course, no one among the demons believed his wrongdoing.
In particular, the Poison King’s eyes were hazy. ‘Ah, I was caught in that devil’s grip and barked in the training hall.’
The guest room windows were wide open. Some people watched from their seats and some watched from their stands. Some even came out to watch.
Visain stood in the middle of the street outside the tavern.
“Oh, how can I do this?”
Before even starting, Jin Ha-ryeong’s face turned red. He felt even more embarrassed.
“We won’t be able to see the Bison Lord in the future, right? He might even enter a 100-year closed training period.”
Geommuyang and Jinhagun also joined forces in Geommu Theater.
“baddie!”
“This time, you went too far.”
“I told you, that person alone made the promise.”
The protests of the blacksmith were unacceptable.
“Even so, why did you bring up that promise at this time of all times?”
Although Geommuyang dug into the core, Geommugeuk made a decisive counterattack.
“So? You’re not going to watch it?”
“… … .”
Geommuyangdo, Jin Hagundo, and Jin Haeryeong all looked in different directions as if they had not heard.
“Bye, Lord! You are awesome!”
When the sword dance began to cheer and clap, the three people next to it also clapped.
The veterans of the Jeongpa and Sapa factions showed slight displeasure at the sight. They did not like the fact that the successors were hanging out like this.
But I didn’t dare to openly scold him in front of Geom Woo-jin, Jin Pae-cheon, and Baek Ja-gang.
Visain closed his eyes.
This feeling of being alone, of being thrown into the world alone.
Finally, the sound of music was heard.
I was so nervous that I couldn’t move. Oh, if I was fighting, I would have just died.
Jin Ha-ryeong, who had been watching, covered his eyes.
“Oh, I just can’t watch it.”
“me too.”
Jin Ha-ryeong questioned the sword master when he covered his eyes.
“Why are you going?”
“I can’t even bear to look at it.”
“You’ve killed a person, so you’re not afraid of blood?”
The musicians played music again. How surprised they must have been. They had suddenly come to play, and there were the Demon Lord, the Martial Lord, the Apostle Lord, the Demon Lords, and the leaders of the righteous and evil factions.
And above all, the Apostolic Lords were dancing to their music. The musicians were as crazy as the Visans. Yes, it must be a group dream.
The music started playing again and this time Visain started dancing.
“uh?”
Jin Ha-ryeong removed the hand that was covering him.
Visain danced better than expected.
Geommu-geuk, who had been staring at him with his eyes wide open, opened his eyes wide. Even though he had ordered it, he was still embarrassed and trembling.
“Are you good at dancing?”
He was dancing really well. He wasn’t just dancing. His hands and feet were moving along to the rhythm.
In fact, Visain learned dancing from Sado Palang, one of the Sado 13 Lang. Sado Palang, who once stirred up the back alleys of Hangzhou, taught him the secret dance.
Visain practiced the dance diligently whenever he had time. He had expected that this day would come someday. He just didn’t know it would be today.
The sword dance could tell that he had been practicing and practicing.
This kind of person was a Bisain. He was someone who always kept his promises and tried to do well in whatever he did.
However, Visain’s dance soon reached its limit. He was not a natural dancer, and he had learned the dance in a hurry. He also lacked practice.
As the movement was repeated, my hands and feet began to feel dizzy from embarrassment. I should have been more shameless, but I couldn’t. My body began to shrink and my true abilities began to show.
The pitiful gesture of losing oneself was conveyed to everyone.
Geum Woo-jin slightly raised his head and looked up at the sky. Jin Pae-cheon coughed in vain.
Baekjagang tightly closed his small eyes.
‘Should I have come alone?’
Just then, when everyone was feeling sorry, someone suddenly jumped onto the dance floor.
“Let’s be cold together!”
The person who barged in was Geommugeuk.
He started to dance along with the Visain dance. It was his first dance today, and he couldn’t possibly do it right, but Geommugeuk followed the movements diligently.
The dancing was deliberately exaggerated and comical, causing laughter to erupt here and there.
“This is such a fun dance!”
Then, as if his interest had grown, Geommugeuk shouted.
“Please give me a faster song.”
The musicians played faster pieces.
The joints of the sword dance were twisted here and there. It was a bizarre dance that made you wonder, “Where did they learn such a dance?”
Again laughter broke out here and there, and this time, Visain followed suit.
The ugly face of the visage was even more memorable.
No one will ever know how happy I was when Geommu-geuk jumped onto the dance floor.
Surrounded by enemies on all sides, on the verge of death, if someone had jumped in to save me, I wouldn’t have been this happy.
“Brother, let’s dance together!”
Geommu-geuk ran and tried to take Geommu-yang away by force.
Sling.
The sword of the swordsman was half drawn.
The sword dance changed direction and tried to take Jin Ha-gun out.
Slurp.
More swords were drawn.
At that time, there was someone who jumped in on his own.
It was Jin Ha-ryeong.
‘No! Haryeong!’
Before Jinpaecheon could stop him, Jinharyeong was already playing the melody.
It wasn’t because she was good at dancing. She was also someone who was extremely shy about appearing in places like this.
But since Geommu-geuk had stepped forward for his friend, he wanted to step forward and help him too. He wanted to share that shame. When that thought came to him, his body impulsively jumped in.
The atmosphere brightened when she joined in. She danced softly and the sword dance was exciting. The Bisain danced here and there, completely absorbed in the dance. The musicians began to play even more excitedly.
Not only is this the first time for a three-way meeting, but it is also the first time since the creation of the martial arts world that the three martial artists have gathered together to dance.
The light on Mabul’s body shone even brighter. Mabul, who had been around the entire Central Plains, was moving his body to the rhythm, his feet tapping as if he had been playing around for a while. If there had been no eyes watching, he might have jumped in.
Even the masters of the political and social factions, who had initially looked at it with displeasure, now relaxed their stiff expressions as if they felt it was just a child’s play.
Baekjagang was looking at Bisain, who was dancing hard.
Jinpaecheon had seen that face many times. It was the face that said, “No matter how good other people’s children are, my child is the best.”
Jinpaecheon looked at Geumwoojin, who was standing on the opposite side.
He watched the sword dance in silence.
‘I hope you lose to your son. If your first defeat is to your son… … isn’t that okay?’
Jinpaecheon’s gaze turned back to the children dancing.
“Even when all the monks gather together, it’s so much fun.”
Youth is so great. Why didn’t I have fun like that when I was young? Fighting and fighting. This time, I killed a few people, and this time, someone. Did I waste my youth like that? Not being able to laugh like that, not being able to have fun like that.
Then Baek Ja-gang said.
“Maybe it’s more enjoyable because it’s a regular event.”
Jinpaecheon nodded.
Jin Ha-ryeong cutely moved his hands and waist, telling them to follow him. Geommu-geuk and Bi-sa-in followed suit. The three of them synchronized their movements, and it was nice to see them dancing in a group.
Visain didn’t realize it. He, who had never smiled properly because he didn’t want to show his ugly face, was now smiling the brightest in his life.
The sword dance performer, who was absorbed in the dance, shouted.
“With a more exciting song!”
Was it because the wind that blew with the full force of spring cooled their sweat?
The three dancers did not get tired.
