Episode 123 Even if you fall into a swamp, you can still breathe (2)âHuh, huh.â
Bangryeongâs face, drenched in cold sweat, was extremely pale.
âIt wonât work out.â
The rope was tied so tightly that no blood could get through. I stayed in that state for over half a day, and my eyes were almost turning yellow.
If I had been able to use my strength properly, I would have released it in an instant and escaped.
âprofit!â
A vein appeared on Bangryeongâs neck. Still, the sealed dantian did not follow her will.
She couldnât understand.
âHow on earth?!â
Angel magic power is one of the top ten magic skills scattered throughout the world.
Moreover, angel skill was not simply a high-level boatman. It was a martial art that must be mastered before learning the mind laws of King Biyoâs Jinsin Jeolhak.
The very fact that it is the stepping stone of the worldâs best evil art proves that it is on a different level from other evil arts, and it is close to impossible to seal the dantian of a person who has mastered angelic arts.
However, it was sealed. It was not just a technique that temporarily disabled the userâs internal energy by pointing at the energy and sea points, but it was a method so harsh that if the caster did not solve it, he would have to live like this for the rest of his life.
Was there even a point-point method like this in the world?
âThis is not magic.â
The study of magic is similar to the study of evildo. Although there are techniques to subdue the mind, it is vulnerable to techniques that control internal power through delicate divination.
âIt is close to the suppression technique sealing method of the martial arts of the right faction.â
No, Iâm sure. Although it has undergone many modifications, this method is clearly a favorite method used by those who have learned the martial arts of the right faction.
âItâs also extremely similar to the Buddhaâs Bloody Hand of Shaolin of Taishan Northâ¦.â
Clang!
Bangryeong was surprised. Suddenly, the carriage door opened.
Woooo!!
Powerful magic energy that spreads out.
As reddish magical power enveloped Bangryeong, her body floated.
dump!
Bangryeong fell to the ground.
Itâs like throwing away someone who canât even exercise their body properly. Bangryeong gritted his teeth as the searing pain penetrated his bones.
But the pain wasnât the problem.
Sigh!
Bangryeongâs eyes widened.
A sharp blue knife stuck not an inch away from his face. The sound of anticipation flowing with a soft glow gave me goosebumps.
âDid you rest well?â
Creepy!
It was a voice that was much more frightening than the anticipation given by the blade.
A situation where you are tied to a rope and cannot even raise your head. All that was visible was a cold sword body and shoes whose belongings were unknown.
Of course, since he knew the identity of the voice, he could also know who was in front of him.
âThe three princes of Shinism!â
Ugh.
Yuseong Cheongdo trembled as he received a faint magical energy.
âItâs not urgent, but I donât really like wasting time. So, answer the questions with sincerity.â
ââ¦.â
âWhat is your relationship with King Biyo?â
Bangryeong gritted his teeth. I was very curious about how the other person knew Master, but what was more important was how to overcome this crisis.
Bangryeong is shaking his head.
However, Seoliang did not give her time to think.
Suddenly.
âAaaah!â
A shrill scream spread out in all directions.
Rumbling.
Blood poured from the cut ear.
âLetâs move on to the next question.â
Bangryeongâs face became pale.
Donât ask the same question again. It feels like an attitude of not caring whether something is said or not.
âHow did you meet Jeoksagaju?â
âThatâ¦â
âThat?â
ââ¦I can not say.â
grasp!
A terrible scream rang out again. The part that was lost this time was all of the left fingers.
chuck.
Bangryeongâs body stiffened. The shooting star was pressing gently under her eyes.
It was a warning that if you did not answer the next question, one of your eyes would be gouged out. Bangryeongâs breathing rapidly became heavier due to the merciless fear brought on by silent violence.
âThe boatman of four years harmonized very well with the horseman of the Jeoksaga Province. Was there any deal between the two?â
Bangryeongâs body trembled. The anticipation rising from the sensitive skin under my eyes was so terrifying that I couldnât even open my mouth.
âI amâ¦!â
âI am?â
âI⦠I just met with the Lord of the Red House under Masterâs orders.â
It looks like he finally has the heart to answer.
But Seoliang was calm.
Sigh!
The screams got louder and louder.
Next to the ears and fingers are the eyes. Seoliang was blowing off body parts that should have been paired one by one.
It was truly a vicious torture. The fear of loss was several times greater than the pain.
âThat doesnât answer the question. Next time, keep your wits about you and answer. Do you understand?â
âYou⦠you son of a bitch!â
puck!
Bangryeong couldnât even scream and opened his mouth wide. Yuseong Cheongdo cut off her shoulder joint.
âI need to hear an answer, so Iâll leave my tongue alone, but I have to pay the price for messing around with my snout, right?â
âQueuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuck.
A cold smile appeared on Seo-ryangâs face.
âIt seems like you have realized your situation, so letâs start properly now.â
After a corner, Seo-ryang came out of the forest, dragging Bang-ryeong, who was completely injured, and threw her away.
dump!
âTie them up again and put them in the carriage.â
Ma Dong-pilâs eyes wavered.
Bangryeong was covered in blood. Meanwhile, the sight of it constantly writhing gave rise to a terrible fear in those who saw it.
Wei Hongryeon clicked her tongue as she grabbed Bangryeong by his hair and examined his condition.
âThis is a complete mess.â
Iâm not saying this because your ears are cut off, your eyes are gouged, and your fingers are blown off.
Bangryeongâs eyes resembled the eyeballs of a dead fish. My mind was devastated by extreme fear.
Physical wounds can be treated, but mental trauma is difficult to treat. If the spirit was damaged to this extent, it would have been a huge blow to the Danjeon, and even if the seal of the Danjeon was released, recovery would be impossible.
âWhat should I do about the wound? âI stopped the bleeding, but the wound will rot if I leave it alone.â
âYou should consider yourself lucky that you didnât kill him.â
I thought that it would have been better to kill him cleanly, but Ma Dong-pil did not say it out loud.
âHmm, he is like that too. By the way, have you figured out everything you need to know?â
âRoughly.â
âWhat is it?â
Xu Liang wiped his hands with a handkerchief without saying a word. The sight of him wiping his blood-covered hands seemed familiar.
Wi Hongryeon shrugged and tied Bangryeong back up and threw him into the carriage.
âBut would it be meaningful to take him in that condition? Just kill it, right?â
These are words worthy of Gwangma Daeju.
Xu Liang shook his head.
âIâm thinking about it.â
âAs you know, Confucius, if a person goes that far, it is difficult to return to normal. âEven if I take you to the main school and try to interrogate you, will you give me a straight answer?â
âknow.â
Wei Honglian nodded. Anyway, the chairman of the party is Seo-ryang. Seo-ryang says so, but there is no need to argue.
âWhen will we leave for Geogyeong Street?â
âLetâs rest for now. âIâll do it separately.â
âAll right.â
Just like that, Wei Hongryeon left the place.
Ma Dong-pil asked cautiously.
âConfucius.â
âhmm?â
âAre you okay?â
âare you okay. Since all internal injuries have been taken care of, recovery elsewhere will be quick.â
âThatâs not itâ¦.â
âThen?â
Ma Dong-pil, who had tried to coax several times, eventually had to keep his mouth shut. It was because I thought there was no need to get on Confuciusâ nerves for no reason.
Xu Liang chuckled.
âThere is no need to be so difficult. If you have any questions, just ask.â
ââ¦.â
âItâs okay if itâs difficult to ask.â
âYou have changed.â
Seoriang turned his head to Ma Dongpil.
Ma Dong-pil said with a somber expression.
âYou are very different from your usual Confucius. Thatâs why Iâm worried.â
I donât need to say it out loud. The tone of speech was also quite harsh. So it felt even more sincere.
âokay?â
âyes. âTo be precise, you have been different from usual since you left school.â
âI guess so.â
âI thought it was fortunate that he regained his usual cool a day before entering Jeoksaga. Even after entering the house, I wasnât worried. Butâ¦â
Ma Dong-pil glanced at the carriage.
âEver since that woman appeared, Confucius has changed completely. âTo the point where it looks dangerous.â
ââ¦.â
âI do not dare to ask Confucius what he is thinking or what his concerns are. Butâ¦â
Ma Dong-pil, who was licking his lips again as if he didnât know how to end his sentence, lowered his head.
âIâm just saying this because Iâm worried. âIf you think this is a presumptuous remark, you will be severely punished.â
âDongpil.â
âYes, Confucius.â
âI told you this once before, right? âDonât live with a grudge against anyone.â
Ma Dong-pil remembered. I remembered everything he said and did after meeting Seoryang.
âThatâs right. âYou said this before the convoy finished its work and returned to the bridge.â
âIt did. âWhat did I say back then?â
âI donât care if you get angry or hate it, but I told you to quickly forget those feelings and live your life.â
âand?â
ââ¦.â
âAnd I said this. âIf you live with those feelings tightly in your head like I did, life becomes tiring.â
Ma Dong-pilâs expression became awkward.
âI donât want to live like that either. Who wants to live a tiring life? âWhether I have any grudges or anything else, I just want to forget everything and live comfortably and find the life I want.â
âConfucius.â
âI realized how ridiculous that was. âAfter I met that bitch.â
Xiliangâs eyes grew cold. SÑarch* The NovelFire.net* website on Google to access chapters of novels early and in the highest quality.
âI was just born like this. No, maybe my life has made me like this. âThe important thing is that I am the type of person who cannot forget my grudges even if I die.â
ââ¦.â
âI realized that this is no longer tiring. I plan to do everything I can until my heart is relieved. âIn the end, that was probably the life I wanted.â
Ma Dong-pil, who had been watching Seoryang quietly, lowered his head.
âNo matter what life you choose, I will simply follow you.â
âYou canât do that. âYou too have to make a choice.â
âA choice?â
âWe are together because we were ordered to? No, thatâs not enough. That should be avoided from both me and you.â
Ma Dong-pil spoke in a powerful tone.
âThe relationship started with an order, but I already made a choice. âMy choice will not change in the future.â
Did you feel that strong sincerity?
Seo-ryangâs face also became more serious.
âIt will probably be a lot different than before.â
âitâs okay.â
âIt will be dangerous in many ways.â
âIt doesnât matter.â
âThere will definitely come a time when I have to use you as a pawn in chess.â
âEven if you just use it as a diploma, I will gladly accept the order.â
Ma Dong-pil got down on one knee.
âIt is not because Confucius is a noble person in our school. It is not because Confucius is a great warrior.â
ââ¦.â
âStill, I will follow Confucius.â
Xu Liang nodded.
I already knew. No matter what he says, Ma Dong-pil will follow him.
But I still wanted to give you a choice. There will be a big difference unless you realize that it is the path you have chosen.
âTell this to the great lord above. âWeâre leaving in half a day.â
âAre you a geogyeongga?â
âI donât go to Geogyeongga.â
âIf I do that, where will I goâ¦?â
Xu Liangâs eyes lit up.
âA treasure trove that I havenât visited in years. âThis is the warehouse closest to here among the warehouses scattered throughout the central plains.â
âyes?â
âIâm going to Sohyanggok in Hyeongsan Mountain in Honam.â
Xu Liang turned around.
The golden tiger followed him, waving its large tail.
âTell this to the above head. Tell the head of the Geogyeong family to come to Sohyanggok with the inspection documents.â
ââ¦!â
âThey say that if you donât come, you will all be judged unfit.â
