Heavenly Inquisition Sword - Chapter 1216



Only Noblemtl

Episode 1216. One interesting thing came out

An autumn in the summer.

On Wongasan Mountain, adjacent to Soho in Yeogang County, Hebi, Namjikryeseong Fortress, there is the ‘most famous’ manor in Gangho.

This is Seokgyeongjang, where Yeon Jeok-ha, who was called ‘the greatest man in the world’, retired 30 years ago.

The Sapa who had a meal with him regarded him as a ‘little devil’, but the majority of the warriors and people thought of him as a ‘giant of the political world’, so he was given that nickname.

But all of that was just a forgotten past.

It is said that rivers and mountains change in ten years.

It’s even worse now that thirty years have passed.

Only the elders remembered the groups that had brought bloodshed to Gangho, such as the Myeongseong Church, the Myeongwang Church, and the Demon Church.

Now even storytellers (professional storytellers) do not mention Yumyeonggyo.

The power structure of Kangho also changed.

After the Sword King Namgung Byeok died from old age, the Southern Alliance naturally disintegrated.

This happened because there was no one with as much power and authority as the Sword King Namgung Byeok.

However, if Ho Cheon-maeng is the master of Kang-ho, that is not the case.

As there were no major incidents, Hocheonmaeng was reduced to an insignificant organization.

There were many people who said that this was the downfall of Moorim.

In fact, the Murim people armed with swords were no longer a match for the rifle soldiers.

Namjikryeseong Hapbi Yeo Kang-hyeon.

Seokgyeongjang.

Early moning.

This is when the workers at Seokgyeongjang are diligently sweeping up the fallen leaves that fill the yard.

A middle-aged man shouted politely in front of the wide open gate.

“Are you there!”

One of the workers leaned his broom against a tree and rushed to the gate.

“Who are you?”

A middle-aged man with a cart behind him smiled and answered.

“I am Son Chang-wol, head of Sangjo Sangbang, headquartered in Luoyang. “Our Lord Bang has come to visit us because he has something to deliver to the owner of Seokgyeongjang.”

Son Changwol was one of the sons of Son Hak, the current owner of Sangjo Sangbang.

“Please wait a moment.”

Hearing the words, ‘I have something to deliver to the hostess,’ the worker hurriedly ran to the main house.

The worker who returned a while later guided Son Chang-wol to the guesthouse.

Son Chang-wol was drinking tea and looking around.

People these days don’t know much about Seok Kyeong-jang, but they heard a lot about him from his father.

‘ha! They said it was Hwamu, Ilhong… … . There is no business ahead of time.’

The interior of the guesthouse was clean due to good maintenance, but the furniture and pillars were clearly worn.

When he drank half of his tea, he started to complain.

Soon, an eye-popping beauty came in through the winter door connected to the main house.

Son Chang-wol, who sensed that she was the rumored martial arts queen Namgung Yeon, jumped up from his seat.

Namgung-yeon, who was in the audience, smiled and spoke.

“It’s been thirteen years, seven months, and five days since I was a guest at Sangjo Sangbang. Did he say he was on an errand for the Ark of the Hand?”

When Son Chang-wol, who was surprised, looked at Haeng-su with his parents’ eyes, Nam Gung-yeon waved his hand and said.

“just joke. “Are you okay, Son Ark?”

“Oh, yes. You are still very active. After seeing my wife, I can see that the title of ‘10 Warlords’ is not an exaggeration. “It is an honor to meet you.”

“Ah, these days, who knows the best in martial arts? Even the people working in the house won’t know.”

“… … .”

Son Chang-wol Haengsu looked at Nam Gung-yeon blankly.

It didn’t feel real that he was talking to the Ten War Empresses.

According to what I heard from my father, Sibjeonmuhu is approaching his 60th birthday.

However, the beautiful woman in front of me looked to be in her late twenties at most.

Nangong Yan took the spiritual energy of Qiangonbyeok (乾坤碧) in Guju and did not age on the outside, but Sun Changyue, who did not know this, felt like he was possessed by a ghost.

As Son Chang-wol watched in fascination, Nam Gung-yeon smiled and continued speaking.

“But I heard that Ark Son had something to deliver to me. Is that correct?”

“Oh, yes, sorry. you’re right. “My father told me to give it to the owner of Seokgyeongjang, saying it was something she would be happy to know.”

“What is it that I would like?”

Namgoongyeon tilted his head.

It is widely known that he likes books, but that was thirty years ago.

Now that thirty years had passed, Son Ark was not the kind of person who would give books as gifts again.

“Last year, Yeon Dae-hyeop (Yeon Moo-baek) of Yeongamukwan sold the site where Waryongjang was located to our Sangjo Sangbang.”

“You said Yeonga Mogwan’s financial situation was not good, so that’s what happened in the end?”

“Everyone is moving to the city, so finding a military officer in the countryside is a difficult task.”

“So?”

“Sangjo Sangbang decided to build a new manor in that place. However, during the digging work, an interesting item came out.”

“Fun stuff?”

“Yes, I think they were buried together when the warehouse collapsed… … . “It’s an old bronze mirror.”

For a moment, Lee Chae looked young in Namgoongyeon’s eyes.

Knowing about the relationship between Yeon Jeok-he and Gu-cheon Xuannyeo-gyeong, her heart raced, but she did not show it.

“It’s a bronze mirror, so it’s probably not broken.”

“That’s right. Since it is made of barrels, it is in good condition other than rust. There was an idea to send it to a blacksmith shop to make bronze ingots, but Lord Bang opposed it, saying it would be a meaningful gift for the owner of Seokgyeongjang.”

“Then what’s on that wagon?”

“you’re right. This is a bronze mirror found in Waryongjang. I was thinking about removing the rust, but I thought there might be a problem in the process… … . I brought it back just as I found it. Oh, of course I shook off the dirt and wiped it clean.”

“Well done. There is no need to try to erase the traces of time. Please tell Lord Ark that I am grateful. “I received an unexpectedly good gift.”

“no. “You handed over Hefei’s good businesses to us, and we are glad to be able to repay you, even if it is late.”

It wasn’t just Yeonga Moogwan who was in a bad situation.

Seok Kyung-jang also had to dispose of half of the business he owned in Hapbi.

Most of them were liquidated because business was not going well.

At that time, Sangjo Sangbang, which was planning to open a branch in Hapbi, took over it.

Son Chang-wol, the attendant, helped the coachman move the wooden chest on the wagon to the guesthouse floor and then returned.

However, Namgung-yeon was not willing to open the lid of the wooden chest.

Around noon.

A beautiful woman who looked just like her appeared in the guest hall.

It was Yeon Ji-an, born 33 years ago to Yeon Jeok-ha and Nam Gung-yeon.

Yeon Ji-an approached Namgung-yeon, who was sitting blankly on the veranda.

“mother?”

“huh? “It’s Jian.”

“What is the person who went to see the customer in the morning doing so far? “I heard the customer left quickly.”

“Son Haengsu? “He left a little while ago.”

“Not a little while ago, Mother. It’s already almost noon. “That person returned an hour ago (2 hours).”

At that moment, Namgoongyeon looked at Yeonjian with startled eyes.

“already?”

“That’s right. “Did a customer give that to you?”

“huh? huh.”

Namgung-yeon stroked a rectangular wooden chest the size of an adult with his hand.

“What is that?”

“Bronze mirror.”

“Did you order a mirror from Sangjo Sangbang?”

“Heh! no. “It’s a bronze mirror unearthed at your parents’ home, Waryongjang.”

“ah! “I guess he was from the Luoyang main branch?”

“Son Ark sent on his son’s side. “It’s a gift for selling He Fei’s commercial building five years ago.”

“I see. “But why are you still doing this?”

“This mirror is not an ordinary mirror. Maybe that’s why I was nervous… … . “I just don’t have the courage to open it.”

“It’s not an ordinary mirror? “Is this the mirror your father was talking about?”

Yeon Ji-an also knew the Nine Heavenly Lady Sutra.

In general, when a daughter grows up, she becomes friends with her mother.

Even if it wasn’t necessarily the case, the relationship between Namgung-yeon, who absorbed the ‘spirit of Geon-gon-byeok’, and Yeon-ji-an, who possessed the ‘original spirit of Demon God Menua’, was bound to be special.

“Yes, it must be the Nine Heavenly Wise Woman Sutra. “Because it is the only bronze mirror of this size in Waryongjang.”

“But why don’t you open it?”

“You know that your father met the Nine Heavenly Wise Woman through the Nine Heavenly Wise Woman Sutra, right?”

“yes.”

“perhaps… … “I might be able to meet the wise woman of nine heavens.”

“What are you going to do when we meet? It’s already been thirty years. His father won’t return even after three hundred years. “Mom, please stop giving up.”

“Give up? No, your father is everything to me.”

“But if it can’t be done, it can’t be done. No matter how long her mother lives… … . “Her father can’t be alive until he comes back.”

“know.”

However, heat was blooming deep within Namgoongyeon’s eyes.

“Is there something I don’t know?”

“Like you, I am a woman with many secrets.”

Namgung Yeon looked at Yeon Ji An with meaningful eyes.

Then Yeon Ji-an shook her head excitedly.

“Mom, you really have a secret about me. By the way, why haven’t you opened it yet? “I think you’ve found a way.”

“I hesitate because I think this is my last chance.”

“Shall I open it for you?”

“Thank you, but I will do it. “Please watch from the side.”

Nam Gung-yeon did not want to leave the work related to Yeon Jeok-ha to someone else.

“Okay.”

Yeon Ji-an quietly retreated.

This is because he knows that his mother’s wishes are more earnest than his own.

Namgung-yeon slowly and painstakingly pulled out each nail.

After a while, I removed the top of the chest and saw a bronze mirror with a lot of rust on the surface.

She carefully took out the bronze mirror and turned it over, as if she were handling a baby.

I knew it!

On the back of the mirror were five letters engraved: ‘Nine Heavenly Wise Woman Sutra’.

It was clearly the same mirror that Yeon Jeok-ha found in the warehouse.

Namgung-yeon, who was trembling, grabbed a mirror and ran towards the main house as if flying.

Entering the room, she put the Nine Heavenly Wise Woman Sutra down on the floor and diligently wiped it with a cloth.

But for some reason, the grime stuck to the mirror surface could not be removed.

Yeon Ji-an belatedly joined in and cleaned up, but it was no use.

The two people cleaned it until the sun went down, but it was still there, whether it was dirt or rust.

Namgung-yeon muttered, wiping the sweat from his forehead with the back of his hand.

“After all, it’s not just a bronze mirror. But how did the enemy clean this up?”

“ha! Iknow, right. “I don’t think it can be done by just wiping it.”

When there was no progress, Yeon Ji-an sighed and stepped back.

However, Namgung-yeon did not back down even though he was sweating like rain.

Rather than cleaning a mirror, it felt like I was fighting a life-or-death enemy.

It was so bad that I wondered if Yeon Ji-an should stop him.

Even though Namgung-yeon clung desperately, the bronze mirror remained steadfast.

Namgung-yeon, overcome by evil, said while wiping the mirror.

“Gucheonhyeonnyeo! I know you’re here! Otherwise, the rust would have been wiped off long ago! Is it because you don’t have the dignity to stand in front of us? Why did you do that? They’ve been waiting for the cargo to arrive for thirty years! For thirty years! “Now is the time to say something!”

Namgung-yeon, overcome with sadness, clutched the cloth and trembled.

Yeon Ji-an, who was looking at her blankly, approached Gucheonhyeonnyeogyeong again.

Yeon Ji-an was just rubbing the mirror.

“It’s all my fault. I should have stopped him. Since you were having a hard time between your maternal grandfather and Ho Tian-meng, I pretended not to know and sent you away. Even though I know that the time of the upper and lower worlds may be different… … . “I thought, as long as I came back late, that I could handle it.”

“I would have gone even if my mother had stopped me. “If I had forced it, my father would have suffered for the rest of his life thinking, ‘The upper world was destroyed because of me.’”

“know. Still, we should have chosen to live in pain together. What did I say… … .”

Tears fell from Namgung-yeon’s eyes.

Rust and grime began to disappear like a lie, centered around the spot where the tear had fallen.
