Episode 647: The Short Tower is Still the Short Tower
“Yes, you speak well. It is important not to forget the basics. People’s minds are fickle these days, but you have true feelings. Here, take this old man’s drink.”
Everyone was surprised when Bang Myeong-won and Yong-sam clinked glasses. It was a rare honor.
The disciples who had relied on the Bang and Si families were momentarily overcome with jealousy. But there was nothing they could do. Who gave Yongjin his natural talent?
Bang Myeong-won drank all his alcohol and then opened his mouth.
“Yongsam, there’s no need to discuss your talent any further. You’re outstanding. I’ve never seen anyone with thicker spiritual intelligence than you. However, no matter how good a sword is, it will become dull if you don’t sharpen it. Your weakness is that you haven’t learned much and lack the basics about medicinal herbs. That’s why you have strong spiritual intelligence, but you can’t use it properly. Today was really dangerous.”
At this point, the powerful men of the Bang and Si families all nodded their heads. Yongsam was an unpolished gem. And yet Yongjin showed his sharpness.
“So, starting tomorrow, go to the herbal medicine warehouse and learn about various herbs and recipes. The first round has just ended. The semi-finals will begin in a month. The first round is just one stage. The semi-finals will be ten times more difficult than the first round. This period will be important for you. If you make it to the semi-finals, you will be given another month. In the finals, you may even face off against Hwamubang.
This Danhwang Bimu will not only be a contest of strength between our Bang and Si families and the Hwa family, but it will also be an opportunity to change your fate. Those who make it to the top fifty in Bimu will receive a disciple nameplate issued by Dangok and enter Dangok to train. If you are in the top ten, the rewards are even more plentiful. If you are in the top three… haha, based on my experience so far, it’s enough to make even old people like us envious.”
Bang Myeong-won said with a smile.
Except for Yongjin, everyone present came here to become a disciple of Dangok. Dangok, it was the holy place of the Dangsoo.
“This time is very important to you. That’s why I plan to lock you in the warehouse. During this time, I want you to stay in the warehouse and continuously supplement your basic knowledge. You won’t complain, right?”
Bang Myeong-won said while looking at Yong Jin.
“Yes, that’s fine. Thank you for your concern. Your Majesty.”
Yongjin was excited. This wasn’t pretending, this was real excitement.
Wasn’t this the very reason he had been acting all this time? He finally had the chance to go to the herbal medicine store. Yongjin seemed to have a vision of the palace stairs beckoning to him.
Bang Myeong-won nodded when he saw Yong-jin happy. Yong-jin was not only loyal, but also smart and liked to learn.
Yongjin held a glass of wine with the aforementioned face and drank together with the headmaster and Shiyeolhwa. When the headmaster said that he had met Yongjin while hitting the faces of the Hwa family members, the high-ranking members of the two families could neither cry nor laugh.
Shiryeolhwa took a sip of his drink and suddenly opened his mouth.
“What does the Hwa family do? They’re just responsible for selling elixirs, right? You despicable bastards. Using your job to make dirty money! Those bastards who are blinded by money are getting more and more greedy, and they’re even extending their reach to the territory of the Si and Bang families? You bastards. And you’re even trying to kick our two families out of Dantop? What the heck are you guys doing!”
The high-ranking officials on the scene were momentarily taken aback by Shi Yeol-hwa’s words. Such words should not be said in front of others so casually as it could have a negative impact.
At that moment, Yongjin intervened with a loud voice.
“That’s right! There isn’t a single normal person in the Hwa family from top to bottom. Didn’t that old man Hwasung sell me a smile? It wasn’t my style though. Brother Shi, when the day comes that I deal with the Hwa family, I’ll be the first to step forward. I’ll kill all those bastards for you. Damn it, I’m going to train desperately this time and become number one. When I enter Dangok, we’ll cooperate inside and out and completely blow those bastards away.”
“Haha, brothers are the best! I know you’re capable. Manager, what are you doing? Hurry up and drink!”
Slap.
Shiryeolhwa, who had drunk a lot of alcohol, quickly collapsed. Dansu was not in good physical condition. Furthermore, these were all good alcohols with high alcohol content.
Let’s go back to our rooms one by one and rest, Bang Myeong-won said to Shi Go-yang in a low voice.
“What do you think of this guy Yongsam? Does he seem trustworthy?”
“When he spoke, his soul waves were like emotions. No hypocrisy or lies could be told. He seemed trustworthy.”
The cat said.
“What a pity. If you had come to us just a year ago, we would have completely defeated Hwamubang.”
Bang Myeong-won said with a sigh.
“Yes, the Hwa family is increasingly pressuring us. They have infiltrated our two families and are secretly plotting a rebellion. The Hwa family has used the wealth they have accumulated over the years to form numerous relationships, so we know it all too well, but we can’t do anything about it. If Hwamubang becomes the best this time and focuses on training Dangok, our two families will either be kicked out of Dantap or completely destroyed.
We were already dead and caught in the net, but with Yongsam appearing, there might be a chance to break the net. Still, we have to keep observing. If an unavoidable situation arises, we will have no choice but to use that method, but we have to hope that Yongsam will bring us a new opportunity.”
The cat said.
“Yes, but we can’t just place our hopes on him, so we have to prepare that method quickly. If Yongsam’s plan doesn’t work, we’ll have no choice but to continue with our original plan. Heh, if they kick us out, they’ll pay a terrible price too.”
Bang Myeong-won said.
“Good. Tomorrow, I will order my subordinates to open all warehouses, regardless of whether they are herbal medicine warehouse or not, to Yongsam. Thanks to Yongsam’s appearance, the attention of the Hwa family has been drawn, so our plan will become easier.”
The next morning, as soon as Yongjin woke up, he followed a woman into the Chilboyeongrongtap. Finally, he entered the herbal medicine vault he had been longing for.
“My goodness, this is truly spectacular. How is this possible?”
When Yongjin entered the herbal medicine warehouse, his eyes widened. The warehouse was so large that it seemed to be hundreds of li long. How big must the Chilbo Yeonglong Pagoda be to be able to be this large?
“The herbal medicine vault is different from other warehouses. It is a space vault with a sect engraved on it. It works on a similar principle to the space ring. However, it is much more complicated than the space ring.”
The woman explained it to Yongjin.
The space inside the space ring is still, but the space here is the same as the outside. The only difference is that the outside is small, but the inside is vastly wide.
“There are millions of medicinal herbs here, from the first to sixth grades. They are all divided into six zones. You don’t need to understand the medicinal herbs below the fourth grade, so just look at the fifth and sixth grade medicinal herbs zones. Starting from the fifth grade zone, you can identify the pharmacology, properties, contraindications, and compatibility of each medicinal herb.
There is a detailed description written in front of each herb. The herbs are divided into commonly used herbs and unpopular herbs, so I recommend starting with the commonly used herbs.
She spoke very politely, using honorifics.
Yongjin went to the fifth-grade elixir area. The shelves were so long that they seemed to have no end, and they were filled with various medicinal herbs. In front of each medicinal herb was a tag with a detailed description written on it.
When Yongjin saw it, his heart started to race. A single tower is a single tower after all.
Compared to this place, the species within Yongjin’s chaotic space were nothing.
While Yongjin’s medicinal herbs were only a few thousand, here there were millions of each grade of medicinal herbs, which was surprising.
“Thank you. I have to start studying, so you can do other things now.”
Yongjin smiled a little awkwardly.
“Okay, I’ll wait outside the warehouse, so if you need anything, just call me.”
The woman left immediately after speaking.
‘Hahaha, this is awesome.’
Yongjin laughed like crazy inside. However, he couldn’t show it on the outside because other people also came and went from the herbal medicine cabinet.
Some came to find medicine, and some came to replenish medicine. Yongjin went forward and ran to the Cold Gate area. It was full of rare and rare medicines that were not commonly seen or used.
These rare medicinal herbs were difficult to collect from outside. Otherwise, Hwaunjong would have already placed them in Yongjin’s hands.
“Haha, Palace Lady. Wait! Yuli Grass, my treasure! Finally meeting you. Gyehwayeopsam, I’m sorry for keeping you waiting for so long. Guyeopmansajuhwa? I’m so glad I met you……”
Yongjin was speechless when he saw the medicinal herbs. These were all medicinal herbs from the palace, and could not be purchased outside.
“But all the herbs here have numbers written on them. They’re being inspected by a professional, so we have to think of another way… Yes, that’s it!”
Yongjin transplanted a single glass plant into the chaotic space and operated the chaotic space. Then, the dried glass plant was revived in an instant and began to regain its life.
Yongjin, who was watching the situation, personally took off the root part of the glass plant and placed it in the soil to continue producing. Then, when he absorbed the life of the useless glass plant, it became a dried medicinal herb again.
The glass candle only needed to leave some roots in the chaotic space. Having one glass candle was the same as having countless glass candles.
Yongjin transplanted rare medicinal herbs like crazy using the same method. The first ones he transplanted were the ones needed for the palace stairs.
“Huh? Why isn’t there any Cheonseong Yongchimcho (天星龍涎草)?”
Yongjin’s heart sank for a moment. He had searched for all twenty kinds of rare medicinal herbs, but only one, Cheonseong Yongchimcho, was missing.
Cheon Seong Yong Chim Cho is one of the three major medicinal herbs of Gung Gye Dan and cannot be replaced by other rare medicinal herbs.
“I don’t know. I’ll have to slowly figure out a way to do this again, and start by transplanting the herbs I don’t have.”
Yongjin began to exploit indiscriminately. Some rare medicinal herbs did not require transplanting the main body, and only required a root stem or a piece of fruit.
Yongjin had rare medicinal herbs in this way with great ease. Even if only a small amount was lost, it did not have a significant effect on the medicinal herbs.
However, some medicinal herbs had to go through a process similar to glassware because they would be discarded if the body was torn.
Yongjin created a zone in the chaos space to cultivate sixth-grade medicinal herbs, modeled after the herbal medicine warehouse here.
Some of the fifth-grade herbs were also planted alone to make them easier to find later.
More than ten days had passed. In the meantime, Yongjin had been very diligently running around the fifth-grade elixir and sixth-grade areas, planting all the herbs that were not in the chaos space.
