Surviving as a Rival in a Martial Arts Novel - Surviving as a Rival in a Martial Arts Novel chapter 34

Chapter 34 – Are there only five dragons and chilbongs like this (01)

Bukbukbuk.

I was feeding Seol-ah at the same table, and when I noticed, Sik-bong, who was scratching with his feet up on the chair, noticed and quietly put his feet down.

Fortunately, as if humans were not always mean, we went to the stream, boiled water in a large pot (used for boiling dog meat) placed in an open bunta, and after washing for a whole day, finally, it looked like a human.

Just in case, I gave instructions to clean the areas such as between the fingernails and behind the ears, and when I brought Seol-ah to the room, I washed her until she stopped struggling due to the smell and told her to buy an appropriate scented oil and apply it, and she seemed to be feeling better now. .

‘Of course, the behavior does not change’

He was constantly scratching or lifting his clothes, and because his behavior didn’t change even when people cleaned him up, people around him didn’t look kindly.

I understand her situation to some extent.

The weather was still hot, but she had a cloth wrapped around her neck and bandages wrapped around her body to hide that she was a woman, so naturally she couldn’t help but sweat.

If she has reached the level of a peak expert, she will be less affected by obtaining the Chinese calligraphy bulchim, but it will be difficult for her to endure at her current level.

“Here are somen and stir-fried vegetables.”

“What kind of raw meat did you request?”

“Here it is.”

First, I give Seol-ah the meat that has been cut to the right size, and then give her her share of the large portioned noodles.

“I will eat well!”

Looking at the happy expression on his face while eating at a restaurant, he was truly a talented person who would have made it big in mukbang if he had been born in the modern era.

I do think that if he is the level of Oryong Chilbong, who will lead the next generation of the midfielder, he has achieved great success even in the world of martial arts novels.

“So. A dragon is passing through this area?”

Normally, her information about Five Dragons and Chilbong is treated as confidential, so we have to talk to her via phone call or by writing, but I was casually asking her for her information.

Slurp slurp!

“That’s right, brother. They made advance notice and said they would visit here today, so if it goes as scheduled, they will arrive here.”

She says that she is not a thief who sends out a notice and steals, and that she even gave a notice in advance when she stopped by on her way to participate in the Yongbong branch.

I was dumbfounded from the moment I heard this story, but my first thought was that he was killed by the Black Moon Party even though he was an Oryong who was strong in terms of martial arts when he came out like this and said, ‘I’m here, kill me quickly.’

And the next piece of information we need is Gyuwolhyang, the peak of Yakgok, but she said she hasn’t set off yet and is in Yakgok, and the location of Yakgok is near the shaman faction, so all we had to do was head south a little and stop by on the way to Hanam.

‘First of all, we only need to rescue the people who were killed in the novel.’

The rest must have survived somehow in the original, but I had no choice but to believe in luck this time too.

It would be difficult for me to take care of all the five dragons and seven peaks by myself, so I took Sikbong with me and then joined Jeonryong, who had excellent military strength, and went to pick him up at Saengbong. Then, I tied the three together and told them to move safely, and I ran to the Murim Alliance first.

After meeting Ban Gyu-seong and testing his skills in a rivalry match, he planned to immediately visit his teacher and samae near the Murim Alliance.

The Murim League headquarters itself is the final goal of the Black Moon Party and is subject to heavy attack, so it is dangerous, but rather than sending it to a place where variables may arise and worrying about it, it would be safer to live near the Murim League, where I will be working with Ban Gyu-seong, and run there first in case of an emergency. Will be.

Even so, the Zhuge family secretly eliminated their internal enemy, Zhuge Hongzhu, and Zhuge Yeonji’s older sister, Yeonji, performed the affairs of Zhuge Hongju on his behalf and deceived the Black Moon Party. I could see that I was safe from it.

‘After that, Ban Gyu-seong and I will take charge of the executives of the Black Moon Party and solve the problem. Since the masters of the martial arts have not been greatly affected yet, even if we mobilize the power of the Black Moon Party, a swordsman or an expert of the same level will be able to gain the upper hand. So… If everything goes according to plan, we will be able to stop it safely.’

Originally, as the Jungwon Murim began to be pushed back, the Demon Cult entered the war and a three-way war almost broke out, but Ban Gyu-seong saved Cheon Ma-hu, built a relationship, and became friends with So Ma-hu and So Cheon-ma, making the Demon Cult an ally in a decisive battle with the Black Moon Party. However, if things continued like this, the problem could have been resolved with just the power of the Jungwon Murim.

‘Samae will be safe and protected by Zhuge Sei by her side. A swordsman with ties to Jegal Segal will be watching over you nearby.’

Although she is a top expert in Sa-mae, her skills are not up to the level of Black Moon Party executives. Last time, I had no choice but to ask Sa-mae, but now that her skills have increased, Samae is there to maintain her health. I wish I could just practice martial arts.

‘She’ll think I’m dead, so if she suddenly appears, she’ll be surprised and angry…’

Well, I am willing to give him a sharp blow. I think it’s a bit weird that she hasn’t contacted me in over 2 years…

Of course, thinking of Samae and thinking that if she sent her letter or went down to her lower world, she would not come back, it poisoned her mind, so she only learned the Jade Rangcheon Sword to the level of the 9th Saint.

“…Why don’t you save some for me to eat instead?”

Before I knew it, Sikbong had finished eating his share of somen noodles and was stuffing stir-fried vegetables down his throat. While I was thinking about what to do next, he left a few pieces of stir-fried vegetables as big as sweet and sour pork. It had been eaten.

Anyway, it’s okay to just order extra food, but while I was thinking about it, the sight of him shoving food down my throat was so shocking that I couldn’t help but say a word.

Not only does he have a big appetite because he comes from an open country, but he can be seen sucking his chopsticks as if he still doesn’t have enough even after eating the amount of food that 3-4 adult men should eat, including somen.

‘It’s not some kind of 4D camouflage…’

It was surprising where it went on a body wrapped in bandages.

Gulp.

Moreover, it does not cause nausea or upset stomach. Even if he eats spoiled food or something strange, he eats it all up. I thought this was the case for all people from the open world, but even Buntaju, a free trader I met here to briefly share information, looked horrified and said, ‘He eats that kind of thing?’ When he saw Sikbong’s appetite. The meal plan was great.

“……”

When I saw Sikbong looking up with big eyes, chopsticks in his mouth, like a puppy that secretly ate a bag of food, I couldn’t bear to get angry and was wondering if I should just order another one.

Quaaang!!

The noise of something exploding echoed outside the guesthouse.

Jump up.

“Brother! Don’t you eat somen?”

“Is Somen important in this situation?”

In response to my question, Sikbong rolled up the somen in my bowl with his chopsticks and swallowed it in one gulp.

“……uuu!”

He was muttering something while putting a lot of somen in his mouth. Judging by the content, he was probably saying that he ate it because it would be a waste to throw it away.

Even in this situation, I felt the pain in her bones for the first time in a long time as I watched her swallow the food first, and then I snatched her by the back of her neck while she was still gurgling and trying to drink somen soup and immediately ran out of the guesthouse.

* *

A large crowd of people had gathered in the village square, but I used my magic to sneak into the small gap between the people, and it wasn’t long before I was able to take a seat at the front of the crowd.

Of course, she was dragging a food baton in one hand, but since she was a top-notch expert, she was able to avoid the crowd of civilians by twisting her body in the middle, so there was no chance of being left behind.

Sweet rice cake!

“Whoa! I like somen as expected… I heard that if you put it in the stomach with the soup, the portion will increase on its own…”

“Gyosam.”

“Yes, brother!”

“Is that guy a war dragon?”

Sikbong, who was still holding his chopsticks, looked at the man in the center of the square while sucking the juice off the tips of his chopsticks.

“That’s right. Jeonryong Cheongsang. Can you see the gold thread embroidered on the sleeves over there? There is the word dragon engraved on it, and he is wearing the Taoist attire unique to the Kunlun Sect. The impression I saw 10 years ago still remains.”

It would be clear what Sikbong said, as he participated in the Yongbong branch ten years ago and is skilled in managing information and observing people as he comes from a civil society background.

And looking at his ability, which went beyond being a first-class expert and was almost close to being a peak expert, it was an achievement worthy of being at the level of Oryong.

If he were not wearing the shabby Taoist attire typical of the Kunlun faction, he looked so neat that one would have thought he was out for a worldly excursion, and even his voice was so loud that many women fell in love with him. It was an appearance that made me think, ‘This has to happen.’

But if there is a problem…

“It doesn’t come every day!”

This guy was putting rocks in the village square and making a show of his power with them.

Quaaang!!

“Oooooh!!”

“Amazing, amazing!”

“They say the martial arts master can split the earth and tear up the sky. Does that really seem like that?”

When Jeonryong’s fist hit the stone, the stone instantly split in half. By martial standards, even a first-class expert could do it by concentrating his mind, so it was a very simple task for him, who was just beginning to become a peak expert.

‘What are you thinking?’

“Where does the power to break even rocks like this come from?”

While listening to the words of Jeonryong, who was shouting with all his strength and overwhelming the people around him, I thought that the world has changed these days and that the Kunlun sect is recruiting lay disciples and other disciples by simply showing their strength.

Why, if you think realistically, rather than starving to death by saying, ‘How great is our sect?’, You say, ‘Wow, they teach you martial arts that can break rocks?’ How important is it to attract people by saying, ‘Let’s get started right away!’

In addition, I thought that the Kunlun Sect, which was in charge of the Cheonghae area, the front line against Demonicism, would always be short of disciples, so they came to these places and showed their skills to recruit disciple candidates.

“Then the price of Kunlun Pill, the best Kunlun pill in the world that can produce this power, is a whopping 1 nyang! I’ll give it to you for only 1 nyang!”

“……”

“Well, then, are you coming tomorrow? Of course, you will stay here tomorrow, but the effectiveness of this medicine has an expiration date, so even the medicine brought from Kunlun Mountain is bound to spoil when it comes down to the lower world… Tomorrow, the effectiveness of the medicine will decline even further. You lose! If you take the medicine right here and now, you will become a top expert. If you take the medicine tomorrow, you will become a top expert. If you take the medicine the day after tomorrow, you will become a first-class expert…”

Softly.

My hand holding Sikbong’s neck was trembling.

“Now then, a total of thirty-six pills of the best Kunlun pills in the world can be used to become this world-class expert! How many pills?”

“Thirty-six!”

“Yes, then we will sell it on a first-come, first-served basis for the future world’s best experts…”

Bah!

I immediately threw the sword and hit the dragon’s head with the handle.
