Heavenly Inquisition Sword - Chapter 1396

Episode 1396. Are you going to divide the world into two?
next day.
Seokgyeongjang became a party atmosphere due to Yeon Jeok-ha returning after three months.
Seokgyeongjang, which was as quiet as a mouse, was noisy from morning until late at night.
The rumor that ‘Yeon Jeok-he, who suddenly disappeared from Wudang Mountain, has returned to Seokgyeongjang’ quickly spread throughout the rivers.
When the Southern Alliance, which had been quiet due to the disappearance of Yeon Jeok-he, announced the Qingming Festival (April season) as if it had been waiting for them, the martial arts competition became heated.
In Gangho, the martial arts competition is a stage for recruiting talent.
This also means that the South Alliance will increase its power.
Is the Southern Alliance, already the loser of Namjikrye Castle, growing stronger here?
No one knew what that meant.
It is a crisis for the warriors who belong to the Hocheon Alliance, but it is an opportunity for those who do not.
Even though it is January, there are already warriors heading to Namjikryeseong Fortress.
Considering the large land mass of the continent, this is probably a natural move.
Anyway, Seokgyeongjang was peaceful.
Yeonjeokha played with her daughter all day or went fishing with a lot of heartache.
Unlike Simtong, who wandered around outside, Dangwoonmang lived in Yakjedang.
Unlike Sim Tong, who had nothing more to teach Wol-ah and Geum-ah, Tang Yun-mang was busy taking on Ha So-baek and Han Chae-yeon as his students.
It was even more so because I was going to teach Ha So-baek and Han Chae-yeon, who were ignorant of medicine, from the basics.
The good news is that Ha So-baek and Han Chae-yeon were not lazy.
If Yeon Jeok-ha’s two sisters-in-law had been lazy, Tang Yun-mang might have wandered around in his home.
However, Ha So-baek and Han Chae-yeon studied hard, and their skills improved day by day, making Tang Yun-mang happy.
The reason why Ha So-baek and Han Chae-yeon devoted themselves to medicine is because of Han Chae-yeon’s sick baby.
Unlike Yeon Ji-an, who was strong and never caught a cold, Han Chae-yeon’s baby (Lee Yeon-ji) suffered from minor illnesses particularly severely.
Anyway, thanks to the two women’s efforts, Tang Yunmang was happy, and the skinny baby gained plump weight.
Around mid-January.
At Seokgyeongjang, a person from the Yeon clan of Master Eon came to visit.
Yeon Jeok-ha, who was called in while preparing to go fishing, looked at the old man with a sullen expression.
“Who are you?”
“This is Yeon Mu-dal from the Yeon clan village in Eonsa. He is the cousin of your father, Yeon Mu-ryong, so he is your uncle.”
“Does Yeon still live there?”
Yeon Jeok-ha tilted his head.
I heard that in the past, after Wolhaseonja took over Waryongjang, the Yeon clan village disappeared.
“After the Yumyeong Bridge disappeared, they came back one by one and rebuilt the village.”
“But how did we get here?”
Seokgyeongjang is located very far away from Luoyang, where the Yeon clan village is located.
However, I was surprised when Mr. Yeon, whom I had no contact with, suddenly came to see me.
Yeonmudal took out a booklet from his arms and placed it on the table.
“What is it?”
“It’s a family book that contains the origins of our Yeon clan and the names of our descendants.”
Yeonjeokha scratched his head in front of an unexpected object.
They say that when a person becomes successful, all kinds of strangers are attracted to him, and now even Mr. Yeon has come to see him.
Yeon Mu-dal didn’t even blink at Yeon Jeok-ha’s mediocre expression.
I thought it would be like that even if I was married.
“You may be an unwelcome guest, but it won’t hurt to know where your roots are.”
I shook my head, wondering if what I was saying was wrong.
However, he did not touch the fortune teller.
This is because I did not have a single good memory about Mr. Yeon.
Either way, Yeonmudal continued to say.
“You know that we use the Chinese character for ‘pond’, right?”
“I am also a person who graduated from elementary school.”
“Thank goodness. But you probably didn’t know that our progenitor was from Goguryeo, right? “We are descendants of Yeonjaseo, the great ruler of Goguryeo.”
I was a little surprised by those words.
“Goguryeo, do you mean present-day Goryeo? “Beyond the Great Wall?”
“I see.”
“Is there still ‘Pond Yeon’ in Goryeo?”
“The only people who use ‘Pond Yeonja’ as their surname are the Yeon clan clans.”
That means there isn’t one.
Since I didn’t ask expecting anything, Yeonjeokha wasn’t disappointed.
In fact, even though I heard that it was Goguryeo’s Yeon clan, I wasn’t particularly impressed.
“Is there a reason you came to me and said something like that?”
“I just came to let you know because you are the second most famous person after Yeon Gaesomun, the grandson of the founder. “Your name is also on the family register, so read it when you’re bored.”
“ha ha ha!”
Yeonjeokha burst out laughing without even realizing it.
I thought the Yeons were unlucky people, but Yeon Mudal was an old but cheerful person.
“There is a clan meeting once a year, but there is no need to attend. “We are satisfied with showing you the roots.”
“Does Brother Mubaek know too?”
“Of course. “Mubaek’s nephew even attended a clan meeting.”
Yeonjeokha chuckled.
It seems that Yeonga-gwan went to a family gathering in the same Luoyang.
“All right. “If you don’t have anything more to say, I guess I’ll just leave.”
As Yeon Jeok-ha stared at him, Yeon Mu-dal stood up without any hesitation.
“You’ve been holding on to a busy person for a long time. I am grateful that she accepted the concubine without swearing. It seems like an excuse… … Not everyone in the Yeon clan’s village knows the internal circumstances of Waryongjang. In fact, there were more people who didn’t know. Of course, that doesn’t mean the Yeons’ mistakes go away.”
“… … .”
Yeonjeokha was silent.
Is it because I’m getting older?
Now, even when I hear about Waryongjang, I don’t have any special feelings.
After spending the month of Yeonmudal, I went to Soho (巢湖) with a heartache.
As I sat down with my fishing rod on the lakeside, Simtong suddenly asked:
“You said Mr. Yeon came to visit?”
“Oh, they gave me something called a concubine.”
“What is a concubine?”
“It’s a book that lists the names of the descendants, starting with the founder.”
“Is there such a thing?”
“I didn’t even know it was there.”
“I think they are people who have nothing to do. “Write it all down.”
“That’s right.”
I changed the topic as if my interest in the rootless heart was not wane.
“Then why are you suddenly going fishing?”
“It’s quiet and nice.”
“It’s true that it’s quiet, but isn’t it a bar rather than fishing?”
“Old Man Shim.”
“yes?”
“Is alcohol good for you? Or do you like the girl at the bar?”
“It’s ‘Do you like your dad? Isn’t this the same question as ‘Do you like your mother?’”
“Tsk tsk! Even at that age, are you still considered a woman? There was a guy in the commercial world who looked exactly like old man Shim? Do you know what happened?”
“I don’t really want to know?”
“I need to know. “I met the woman I really loved and was about to get married, when she informed me that the woman I once enjoyed was pregnant.”
“So?”
Sim Tong said he didn’t want to know, but showed interest in the lame story.
“The guardian of the woman he loved killed the pregnant woman. Because of that, I also had to say goodbye to the woman I loved. “Those are the words of a libertine.”
“You’re such an envious guy that you met two women at the same time.”
“Where did you hear me? “That guy’s life was shattered.”
“I just wanted you to enjoy it. “I don’t want more.”
“… … .”
Yeonjeokha had nothing to say.
I thought they were similar, but Simtong was a worse person than Fabian.
***
Hapbi.
The Namgung family.
Early moning.
Sword King Namgung Byeok visited his son’s room.
This is to check on the condition of my son who is recovering from an injury.
My son, who had suffered a severed brachial artery just a few months ago, has recently been recovering incredibly quickly.
In addition, the eyes of my son, who had been dying, also came back to life.
These days, it was Namgung Byeok’s pleasure to check on his son’s condition every morning and evening.
“Are you awake?”
“yes.”
In response to Namgung Cheon’s answer, Namgung Byeok opened the door and went inside.
The smell of the decoction permeating the room reached my nose, but it didn’t hurt me like before.
Looking at the empty bowl on the table, it looks like he just took some medicine.
“How are you feeling?”
“great.”
Namgung Byeok nodded and silently grabbed his son’s wrist.
I’m trying to get a pulse.
After a while, a smile appeared on Namgung Byeok’s lips as he relaxed his hands.
“Did you say that the technique of Ungi Yosang that you taught me was Chungheochihyeolgong (沖虛就穴功)?”
“yes.”
“It’s amazing that the brachial nerves recover before the broken bones even heal. This is the first time in my life that I have seen a case like this. “There has been another treasure in the Namgung family.”
People of the Namgung family generally have a passion for collecting martial arts.
Namgung Byeok, the head of the family at the time, also did the same.
Therefore, it was taken for granted that Chungheochwihyeolgong was placed in the Gyeongseogak of the Namgung family.
But Namgung-cheon drew a line.
“Father, you must have permission from the Emperor.”
At that moment, an awkward smile appeared on Namgung Byeok’s face.
“That’s true, but I won’t object to it either. “We are not strangers.”
Namgung-cheon, who smiled bitterly at his father’s words, said.
“Starting today, I’m going to use my body a little at the training center.”
“I guess we’ll wait a little longer on that.”
“The bones are almost completely healed and I can now move.”
“There is no need to rush.”
Namgung-cheon asked, sensing something strange in his father’s tone.
“Is there any reason why I shouldn’t go to the training ground?”
“Now that the enemy has returned from Sanggye, the South Alliance will also resume its activities.”
“So, I also need to get in shape quickly.”
Namgung Byeok spoke as if explaining to his impatient son.
“As you know, the Nan Meng and the Ho Cheon Meng used to eat together. Therefore, it is not easy to point the tip of a sword at a warrior named Ho Cheon-maeng.”
Nam Gung-cheon could not understand his father’s words.
After Mu Geuk-mun left Nanjing, Namjikrye Fortress became the property of the Southern Alliance.
There’s no need to fight Hu Tianmeng anymore, so you’re pointing your sword at me?
“There are two main driving forces driving the Southern Alliance now. One is that you suffered greatly at Lake Wabu, and the other is that the teenage masters tried to kill me at Pogong Temple. However, the one who suffered damage due to the gunsmith’s work was not me, but Ho Cheon-maeng. That is not enough to awaken the fighting spirit of the Confederate warriors. But your situation is different.”
Namgung Byeok looked at his son carefully.
The longer Namgung-cheon lies down, the stronger the spirit of revenge of the soldiers of the Southern Alliance becomes. That’s why I said, ‘There’s no need to rush.’
Only then was Namgung-cheon able to figure out his father’s intentions.
“Are you planning to expand your territory beyond Namjikrye Castle?”
“I plan to divide the world into the Hocheon Alliance and the Southern Alliance. Whether a person or an organization, only the strong survive. If the power of the Southern Alliance is weak, it will gradually be swallowed up by the Hocheon Alliance, and will eventually be eaten up. “Didn’t the Nangong family shed blood just to see something like that?”
“Are you going to divide the world and the world? “The blood will form a river.”
Nangong Cheon looked at his father with miserable eyes.
Since cutting off Hu Tianmeng’s limbs, the world would be drenched in blood.
However, the Namgung Byeok did not care.
“Cheon. The Namgung family shed a lot of blood to become the rout of Namjikryeseong. “She is taking over half the world, so shouldn’t she be prepared to do something like that?”
“So what is the difference between the famous religion and the demonic religion?”
“They did it to conquer, but the Southern Alliance did it to survive for a long time.”
Nam Gong-cheon, unable to find anything to refute, dragged Yeon Je-he in.
“The enemy will oppose it, just as it did before.”
“I expressed my intention to Jeok Ha before he left for Sanggye, but he did not object.”
Of course, I said it in an indirect way, so I don’t know if the meaning was conveyed properly.
However, for some reason, the Nangung Byeok felt like Yeon Jeok-ha’s arm was going to bend inward.
Only his family knew what happened to Yeon Jeok-ha, who went to Sanggye.
‘So I won’t stab my father-in-law in the back like before.’
