Habuk Pengga Swordsman Genius - Chapter 483
Only Noblemtl
483. The genius Confucian scholar of Yulim Seowon (6)
To be exact, the empty space at the very bottom of the Deepening section was shining.
Although it is still an empty space, it is positive that changes are occurring there.
That was when.
Yang Seok-bong, who had been staring blankly, asked a question cautiously.
“By any chance… … .”
“Yes, go ahead.”
“Is that acupuncture that makes your head better really possible? At first, I didn’t believe it, but seeing Peng Yu-saeng being so proactive, I think it might be possible. Of course, I don’t need that kind of method.”
Yang Seok-bong pointed to his head.
But his true intention seemed to be different as he looked at Hanbin’s expression.
At that moment, Hanbin’s expression changed.
This is because the text appeared in the advanced version of the Yongrin Sword Technique.
[Wisdom: One]
Finally, the long-awaited number appeared.
Hanbin suppressed his emotions.
Just because you have a lump called ‘Ji’ doesn’t mean you’ll get smarter.
I don’t know how I got there, but it was half the battle.
What good would it do to have one of the ‘Ji’ knots? … .
Hanbin opened his eyes wide.
Because I suddenly felt my head become clearer.
Hanbin touched his head without realizing it.
It felt like the lid on my head had opened.
I thought that if only the head was completely transformed, it would feel like this.
At that time, Yang Seok-bong asked with a worried look.
“Isn’t that too much? Why do you have that expression?”
“No. I just think that all my questions have been answered.”
“Haha, this is true.”
Yang Seok-bong looked at Han Bin with an anxious expression.
Because Hanbin’s gaze suddenly changed.
When Yang Seok-bong looked at Han Bin, his eyes were filled with various emotions like a swirling typhoon.
It was only then that Yang Seok-bong realized that Han Bin was the one holding the leash.
Although the conversation is comfortable like this, as long as there is a contract, the hierarchical relationship is clear.
Yang Seok-bong’s eyes trembled slightly.
Hanbin quietly turned his head without paying attention to his gaze.
Of course, it was to see the advanced version of Yongrin Sword Technique.
In fact, Hanbin’s acquisition of the single character ‘Ji’ in the Simhwapyeon brought about a change like Sangjeonbyeokhae.
I thought beginning was half the battle, and it was true.
As the attribute of wisdom became activated, knowledge that I was unaware of began to appear in my head.
Knowledge did not just come rushing in, it just appeared in the blink of an eye as if it had always been there.
The reason I was able to obtain a new scepter now was because I had subdued my opponent through argument.
There were several requirements to obtain the land.
It was mostly about subduing the opponent through logic or tests.
The logic behind obtaining the wisdom-related verses was simple.
When you get a body blow, you attack the body.
To gain wisdom, one had to subdue the opponent in some other way than by piercing his head.
Hanbin’s eyes gradually became calm.
After the fierce storm passed, Hanbin’s eyes were shining softly like calm river water.
Hanbin picked up his chopsticks without a care.
“Let’s all eat.”
“yes?”
When Seol-hwa asked in surprise, Han-bin continued speaking with a kind face.
“If you came here to eat, you should eat.”
“That’s true, but until a little while ago… … .”
The story was vague at the end.
I knew that Hanbin was right.
The problem is, wasn’t Hanbin just picking up his chopsticks to pierce Yang Seokbong’s forehead a little while ago?
Although she had many questions, Seolhwa quietly picked up her chopsticks.
There was always a reason for Hanbin’s actions, so there was no need to ask.
As everyone continued to eat nonchalantly, Yang Seok-bong opened his mouth.
He almost died, but his partner ate as if nothing had happened!
No matter how much I thought about it, it seemed like there wasn’t a normal person among Hanbin’s group.
Yang Seok-bong shook his head without realizing it.
At that moment, a girl who had turned into a stone statue came into Yang Seok-bong’s sight, holding chopsticks and looking flustered.
Yang Seok-bong muttered to himself without realizing it.
“There is one normal child.”
“Did you by any chance tell me what you were talking about?”
When So-gun asked cautiously, Yang Seok-bong quickly waved his hand.
“Oh, no, my lady.”
“Young lady?”
“Ah, what should I call you?”
At that moment, Seol-hwa, who was standing next to me, burst out laughing.
Yang Seok-bong also quickly picked up his chopsticks.
It was to hide his embarrassed appearance.
Yang Seok-bong subconsciously realized that he was giving off a strange vibe to Seol-hwa, Cheong-hwa, and So-gun.
It was the appearance of an absolute being.
The most important thing in the Anhui Yang clan was courtesy toward the lord.
Wasn’t it the goal of an official to assist the emperor from within?
If you look at the elders of the Yang family who retired from central politics, they all had the air of a tyrant.
Yang Seok-bong was curious about that and asked his grandfather.
The grandfather said that he buried it while standing next to the emperor.
Even the officials who assisted the emperor were showing the aura of a tyrant, so what would the ruler of the country be like? I always thought about this as I came here.
So, there was no way he wouldn’t know the tyrant’s momentum.
Yang Seok-bong heard that not only high-ranking officials in central politics but also masters of martial arts have the aura of a tyrant.
However, it was absurd that such a subtle aura of a tyrant was emanating from a mere maid.
Actually, I didn’t feel it from the beginning.
Now that I’ve come close to death, I’m starting to feel it.
How can one treat a maid who exudes such a kingly aura?
So I called her Miss, but calling her that made it feel awkward.
It was when Yang Seok-bong was diligently playing with his chopsticks.
I heard a grating voice. But now, strangely, it wasn’t grating.
After exchanging a few words, it became clear that the person who caught my curiosity, regardless of our contractual relationship, was Hanbin.
“Well, now that we’ve eaten, shall we go?”
When I looked up, Hanbin and his group had already reached the entrance.
Yang Seok-bong asked at that sight.
“Where are you going now?”
“I think I know the clue to the test.”
“Huh, what do you mean, Mr. Peng?”
“Everything beyond that is a secret.”
“It’s a secret… … .”
When Yang Seok-bong trailed off, Han Bin continued speaking.
“Well, that’s what I’m saying. If I say something and it turns out to be wrong, wouldn’t I feel bad?”
Hanbin smiled brightly.
Yang Seok-bong completely agreed with Han Bin’s words.
Suddenly, Yang Seok-bong felt like his opponent was not a man but a scholar.
While Yang Seok-bong was blankly watching, Han Bin and his party went back to the entrance they came through.
Yang Seok-bong’s head became dizzy as he watched Hanbin and his group moving further and further away.
He felt empty and frustrated when the group that had come to him like a typhoon quietly disappeared like a breeze.
That was when.
Choi Yu-ji and the students rushed into the restaurant.
The students who met Yang Seok-bong’s eyes quickly approached him.
The first one to speak was Choi Yu-ji.
“Did Mr. Yang give up on the exam?”
“If you gather people like this and rush in, how can I possibly gather clues? When everyone gathers, give me a tip. So, have you found many clues for the test?”
“I couldn’t find a single one.”
“I couldn’t find it, but that expression… … .”
“Haha, you’ve lost your senses quite a bit. Think about it. I’m using the method of elimination right now.”
“Oh, the method of elimination!”
Yang Seok-bong nodded.
Elimination method was a method used in Confucianism to derive the correct answer.
If you erase the incorrect answers one by one, you will eventually reach the correct answer.
The clue they were looking for was the same.
As I searched through each place where the clue might be hidden, I was bound to eventually reach the real clue.
What if Yang Seok-bong leads that many students?
He must have used elimination too.
Now that we’ve ruled out a lot of targets, we should be getting closer to a real clue.
That confidence was evident on his face.
Choi Yu-ji, who had been chatting for a while, turned around slightly and looked at Yang Seok-bong as if she remembered something.
“You said it.”
“Tell me, Mr. Choi.”
“I doubt that, but if you find a clue, sell it to me. That’s what I suggested to the rest of my friends anyway.”
“Okay, I’ll run to you when I find a clue.”
“Thank you.”
As Choi Yu-ji turned around, Yang Seok-bong’s eyes lit up.
Choi Yu-ji, who sat at a table far from the other students, looked like herself.
Their families and thoughts were similar.
Yang Seok-bong decided that if he found a clue, he would sell it for a very high price.
Choi Yu-ji will definitely accept it.
Yang Seok-bong turned his gaze towards the entrance again.
He was genuinely curious about where Hanbin and his group had gone.
I didn’t think that I would find a clue about the test better than Choi Yu-ji and her group.
But why is there such anticipation?
* * *
Hanbin walked slowly between the halls of Yulim Seowon as if he was taking a walk.
Seolhwa asked at that sight.
“Your Majesty, didn’t you say you were looking for a clue?”
“After eating, it is the way of the martial artist to digest food!”
“Hehe, that’s right. As expected, you are Confucius.”
“Oh, you guys should eat the candy you brought… … Oh, you already took it out.”
Hanbin laughed while looking at the story.
Seolhwa was already holding the candy and skewers.
Cheonghwa and Sogun shared the rice cakes in silence.
Anyone who saw Hanbin and his group could tell they were taking a walk.
Hanbin, who was peacefully walking around the palace, suddenly changed direction.
The place Hanbin headed to was where the back mountain was.
Although he changed direction, Hanbin walked with the same leisurely attitude as before.
Seolhwa and Cheonghwa also followed Hanbin happily without any doubts.
Of course, So-gun was an exception.
No matter how much I thought about it, I couldn’t understand this group.
His behavior at the restaurant was strange, as was his nonchalant acceptance of Sulwha and Cheonghwa.
No, before that, I didn’t understand what was said about the person from the Zhuge family being a savior.
Although his memories had not fully returned, So-gun also knew Jegal Se-ga.
A family that has risen to the ranks of the ten most powerful families in the world, but has also occasionally entered central politics, forming a family that exists between the government and the martial arts world.
In other words, it was a family that was skilled in both civil and military affairs.
So they say that the Zhuge family is a benefactor?
The problem was that what he was doing was so evil that Saphain wanted to go away.
As he began to feel a bit of familial love for Hanbin and his group, his doubts grew.
They soon arrived at a place overgrown with bushes.
It was a forest connected to the mountain behind.
Hanbin looked out at the forest and smacked his lips.
“Anyone can see that it’s suspicious.”
“What do you mean, Confucius?”
When Seolhwa asked, Hanbin pointed to the forest.
“Who set up the formation?”
“There is a formation set up at the boundary of Yulim Seowon.”
“This isn’t a border. It’s artificial.”
“Oh, then maybe it’s the enemy!”
Seolhwa pulled out the blood-curdling sword.
Sling.
In Seolhwa’s hand, the Uhyeolranggeom was emitting a strange energy.
Hanbin waved his hand at that sight.
“Seolhwa, I think you need some rest.”
“What do you mean?”
“You’re too tense. Just because you have a formation doesn’t mean you have an enemy. And I don’t feel any killing intent in this formation.”
“I’m saying there’s no bad intention.”
