678. Brain Jade (3)

Hanbin nodded to Sim Miho’s question.

“Vice President Shim, that’s a very good question.”

“Thank you, my lord.”

As Sim Mi-ho’s eyes sparkled, Han-bin looked around and continued speaking.

“No matter who comes, there must be someone left who can guard this place.”

“If it’s that kind of person… … .”

Everyone looked at Hanbin.

Hanbin smiled awkwardly and looked away.

Where Hanbin was looking, there was Muyeong.

As Muyeong smiled faintly, Hanbin continued speaking.

“That’s him.”

In that moment, everyone’s eyes widened.

This is because what Hanbin was pointing at was not Muyeong, but Baek Mirang.

Hanbin seemed to be pointing at Muyeong, then turned his gaze to look at Baek Mirang.

Baek Mi-rang asked, pointing to her face with her index finger in surprise.

“You want me to stay here? Even though I’m quick-witted, my martial arts skills aren’t that great… .”

“First of all, the person who can guard this place must be quick-witted.”

“I think just having intuition and information skills won’t be enough.”

Baek Mi-rang evaluated herself objectively.

Hanbin smiled at that sight.

“The person who will guard this place is Lady Baek, but there is someone else who will guard Lady Baek.”

At Hanbin’s words, Muyeong stroked his beard.

He took a step forward as if it was his turn.

“Hmm.”

As soon as Muyeong coughed, Hanbin smiled brightly.

“Miss Baek Mi-rang, please take care of the management of Cheonjamsa Temple, and Master Muyeong, please guard this place.”

“Wouldn’t it be better if I went in and helped?”

“No. It’s more important to protect our lifeline here. Honestly… … .”

“What are you trying to say?”

“We don’t need your help to defeat the enemy. In fact, it won’t help you.”

“What does that mean?”

“You were just watching earlier, right?”

“Well… … .”

Muyeong slightly turned his gaze.

At that sight, Hanbin continued speaking.

“If you had the martial arts skills of an elder, you could have immediately cut off the heads of several of the rabbit masked people. But you just watched. You may speak harshly, but you have never broken the Buddhist code.”

“hmm.”

Muyeong stroked his beard.

The disciples of Shaolin are afraid and avoid Muyeong.

But now Hanbin has seen through his true nature.

He was surprised that Hanbin knew himself better than the disciples of Shaolin.

***

Hanbin entered through the first passage.

The person who came in with Hanbin was none other than Su-un.

There, next to him, sat Akpilseung.

Seolhwa followed Simmiho into the second passage, and Cheonghwa followed Jindugae into the third passage.

Hanbin, who was entering the passageway, stopped walking.

“Please wait a moment.”

“What’s going on?”

“Look over there.”

“What do you want me to see?”

“Oh, the fire is too weak.”

Hanbin poured oil on the torch.

Hururuk.

As the torch flame flickered, the passage became twice as bright.

At that moment, Su-woon was surprised and took a step back.

“Excuse me, what is that?”

What Su-un was pointing to was a wall blocking the way.

There was a wall about three steps away, and I couldn’t move forward because of that wall.

The problem was that the wall was full of snakes.

Several kinds of snakes were coiled in front of him.

Hanbin continued speaking, taking a step ahead.

“Don’t worry, it’s not poisonous.”

“Look at that. It’s so colorful, and anyone can tell it’s carrying deadly poison.”

“It looks like that, but it’s not poisonous. Someone must have released it here to protect this place.”

“You said it was to protect me?”

“Yes, that’s right.”

“Isn’t that a dead wall? Why are you guarding that wall? And didn’t you tell anyone else that if the passage is blocked, they should come back quickly?”

“It’s only blocked on the surface… … There must be something important behind there. Let’s go and check it out.”

Hanbin grabbed Suwoon’s sleeve.

Su-un stepped back in fright.

But behind them, Akpilseung was holding out.

Because the passage was narrow, there was no room for the water to escape.

Akpilseung smiled brightly and pushed Suwoon forward.

“Your Majesty, just as our lord said, that snake is not poisonous.”

“How do you know?”

“I can guarantee it, having inherited it.”

“You said you were bitten by that snake?”

“Even though it will swell up and make it difficult to move, it does not contain any venom that can kill a person. So, please follow our lord without worry.”

“Huh. How is that non-poisonous… … .”

Su-un was left speechless.

This is because Hanbin, who was in front, slightly moved to the side as Akpilseung pushed from behind.

Su-un had no choice but to naturally go to the front.

Just one step ahead was a cave full of snakes.

Su-un froze when he saw the snake in front of him.

It’s not that there are no snakes on Mt. Mudang, but it was his first time seeing so many of them gathered in one place.

At that moment, a snake raised its head and came towards Su-un.

The way he flicked his tongue looked like a poisonous snake.

It was a type of snake I had never seen before on Mt. Mudang.

As Hanbin said, there was definitely a snake released here.

Why would they release a snake here?

What on earth is going on at the shaman?

Su-woon turned his head and looked at Han-bin.

When their eyes met, Hanbin shouted.

“Don’t move! It’s a poisonous snake!”

“You said earlier that there were no poisonous snakes here… … .”

Before he could finish speaking, Hanbin reached out his hand.

In an instant, the snake released its coils and flew powerfully.

Shhh!

The snake and Hanbin’s hands met in the air.

When Hanbin’s hand stopped, the snake had lost its strength and was lying limp.

Hanbin threw the dead snake back nonchalantly.

Hanbin, standing next to Su-woon, shouted.

“There is a Taegeuk symbol engraved in front of me!”

“Ah, that’s… … .”

When Su-woon stopped talking, Han-bin continued speaking.

“It’s familiar, but I don’t know what it means. In fact, I’m troubled. There’s a way to break this door, or to decipher the meaning of this symbol and pass through this door. But strangely, I don’t want to break this door.”

“Okay, just wait a minute.”

Su-woon blocked Han-bin’s path.

He stood tall in front of the snake-infested door as if he was going to solve the problem.

This time, Su-woon’s intuition and Han-bin’s intuition matched each other.

In fact, the way to get through this door was simple.

A stone wall this thick could easily be passed through using the True Dragon Sword.

But, I didn’t feel good.

It didn’t feel dangerous, but my instincts were telling me not to use the True Dragon’s Soul Sword.

It was the same with water transport.

Su-un was a Taoist who was terrified of snakes.

But this time, I had a strange feeling.

I had a feeling that if I didn’t pass through this door completely, I would regret it for the rest of my life.

Su-woon couldn’t even figure out what kind of feeling it was.

Is there some real treasure over there?

The Lost Shaman’s Secret?

If not that, then what about the sword of the non-partisan?

Su-un narrowed his eyes and focused on the several Taegeuk patterns on the lower part of the wall.

Even though the snakes were waving the Taegeuk pattern around, causing confusion, Su-un did not lose focus.

The pattern engraved on the front was clearly one that Su-un knew.

This Taegeuk is something that any child who grew up under a shaman could not not know.

The young disciples of a shaman learn geon-gong-gu-gong from an early age.

Geongonggugong, which involves rotating a ball according to the principles of Tai Chi and Bagua, was both a game and a training method.

This Taegeuk symbol was the symbol representing Geon-gong-gu-gong.

Su-un placed his hand on one of the Taegeuk patterns.

Swish.

Su-un stroked the Taegeuk.

The way he stroked it was like rolling a ball.

Su-un’s hand was connected to the Taegeuk right next to him.

Sigh.

He held Su-un’s hand as if he was writing the Taegeuk symbol.

That was when.

A snake rushed in and bit Su-un’s hand.

As he tried to slay the snake behind Hanbin, Su-un shouted.

“Stop!”

“… … .”

Hanbin decided to watch in silence.

As he stroked the Taegeuk, Su-un seemed to feel something.

In fact, Hanbin also knew that the Taegeuk under his feet meant the stages of Geon-gong-gu-gong.

But I wanted to leave this job to Su-un.

This was also Hanbin’s instinct.

Hanbin waited silently for Suwoon to solve this problem.

Then Su-un was bitten by a snake again.

But Su-un didn’t stop his hands.

Su-un’s hands were moving faster and faster.

As Su-un’s hand stroking the Taegeuk grew faster, a subtle vibration sound leaked out from the wall.

Akpilseung, who was behind Hanbin, spoke carefully.

“My lord, I think you should be careful. How about we step back a little?”

“Evil footnote. If we back down, what will become of the Master Su-un? In times like this, we should live together and die together.”

“Okay, I see.”

Akpilseung opened his eyes wide.

That was when.

Hanbin’s hand grabbed Akpilseung’s sleeve.

Then he pushed Akpilseung forward.

Now, the situation is that Akpilseung is standing in front of Hanbin.

Hanbin continued speaking.

“In that sense, the evil footnotes take the lead.”

“Why are you in front of me… … .”

Akpilseung was left speechless.

Because suddenly the wall started shaking.

Akpilseung knew that a disaster was coming after the strange shaking.

If even a stream of water were to flow out from behind that wall, I would become a water ghost here.

If the dirt pops out, I’ll be buried alive here.

It was a moment when she felt resentful of Hanbin, who had said that they would live together and die together, but then pushed her forward.

But Akpilseung didn’t have time to look back.

Because an ominous feeling enveloped my whole body.

Akpilseung closed his eyes without realizing it.

Akpilseung, who had been tightly closing his eyes and preparing to receive the disaster with his whole body, tilted his head.

Because a cool breeze suddenly brushed past my ears.

“What is this… … .”

Akpilseung slowly opened his eyes.

And then he screamed.

“omg!”

An unimaginable sight unfolded before my eyes.

It was strange that the wall blocking the way opened, and inside was a prisoner sitting.

There was a prisoner right behind the wall.

As the door opened, a prisoner chained to the wall came out three steps later.

Far away, a bowl of rice was rolling around.

A foul odor was emanating from the bowl.

Akpilseung remembered that this place was Noeok.

So what crime did the author commit to be imprisoned here?

Akpilseung looked at Suun.

Su-woon was so flustered that he couldn’t control his body.

Akpilseung quickly approached and supported Suwoon, who was staggering.

“Master, was there a real prison for shamans?”

“I, I don’t know either.”

“What crime did Lee Ja commit to deserve this treatment?”

Akpilseung shook his head as if he couldn’t understand.

That would be the case, Akpilseung was sincere when it came to cooking.

Although I was interested in cooking itself, I loved seeing people’s faces smiling as they cooked.

They call it a prison, but this doesn’t make sense.

Don’t they say that even the most brutal of death row inmates is given a sumptuous feast for their last meal?

Su-un answered.

“I don’t know either.”

Su-woon’s upper body, which had been shaking his head continuously, tilted.

Su-un’s gaze was fixed on the prisoner.

He hugged the prisoner urgently.

Su-woon, who was hugging the prisoner, shouted at Han-bin.

“Please save me!”
