Chapter 486
“Shall we talk for a minute?”
“hate. go away.”
Right.”
Mungyeong’s eyebrows twitched at the sight of the Jeokcheon River approaching without hesitation.
“I would have said no.”
“heard. so?”
“I can’t even speak. Did you eat your age through the back hole?”
“There’s nothing a young man can’t say to an elder. The old woman is six to seven years older than you.”
“How old are you, like that… …
“It’s thigh meat. You young bastard with no blood on his head.”
“So dog-like… … done. don’t talk.”
Mungyeong, who was moved by tears, shook her head.
He looks like a young boy on the outside, but he is also an old man who has lived a long and long life of more than 100 years.
However, when I was talking to Jeokcheongang, I felt like a child who lost his composure.
‘You’ve gone too far to piss people off. Jeok Cheon-gang and Jin Tae-gyeong are very much alike. It seemed that these two could kill someone by bursting into a tantrum with three tongues.
Compared to that, the sick in Sacheon by now
The old disciple who was taking care of the children was no different from the reincarnation of Buddha.
‘I miss you. How are you?’
Mungyeong is a man who misses his good disciple. The Jeokcheongang approached with faltering steps, perched on a rock.
“What were you looking at?”
“There is no reason you have to answer that.”
“Not a bad choice. Then let’s stay like this until dawn. The two old men are cozy.”
“I know one, I don’t know the other. It will be enough if you leave.”
“Two know and three don’t, but do you think the old lady will be like this only today?”
a ?»
“Today, tomorrow, the day after tomorrow. I’m old, so I’ve lost sleep, so I’ve been alone, but this won’t be bad either.”
Mungyeong’s new model, which was about to turn around, stopped abruptly. As he gazed at the Jeokcheon River with trembling eyelids, he murmured as if in a sigh.
“Like a vicious old man.”
“hmm. It looks like you’re finally ready to talk.”
“… … Tell me about the business that came to you.”
“I think the story could be a bit longer.”
“As short as possible.”
“Keep it as short as possible.”
Cheongang spat out a word while looking at the blackened river.
“Look at him from now on.”
“what?”
Mungyeong, who narrowed her eyes for a moment, opened her mouth.
“Is that him, Jin Tae-kyung?”
“Yes. Who else besides Jin Tae-kyung?
Is there?”
“Why are you asking me for that?”
“well. I don’t know.”
Jeokcheongang suddenly lifted his head and looked up at the sky.
A full moon floating brightly. The light pouring from the unreachable place is exceptionally bright.
“Suddenly, I had a thought. Thinking how long the old lady can be with him.”
One hundred years was a really long time.
Rivers and mountains have changed, dynasties have changed
turned and… … The little boy became a gray-haired old man.
Mungyeong, who was staring blankly at the Jeokcheongang River, was silent.
“You are old.”
“okay. I am old.”
It is not only the body that has aged and deteriorated with the passage of time. Invisible emotions and minds are also slowly worn out.
At some point, when you suddenly think of death, when you think about how much longer you can stay by someone’s side, you realize that people are old.
Just like the Jeokcheon River right now.
And Mungyeong was the only person who could understand Jeokcheongang’s heart better than anyone else.
“Did a heart attack come?”
Simmara, it’s been a long time.”
Jeokcheongang let out a self-deprecating laugh.
After the former disciple, who was raised like a child but grew up as a flesh demon, left, dark clouds hung over his heart.
And the sadness and guilt I felt then
has been constricting Jeokcheongang’s mind and body like shackles for decades.
Until one day, a light called Jin Tae-kyung suddenly appeared.
“It’s a painful past now. Just remembering, not painful.”
“Then why?”
“Because I’m nervous.”
The form of Shimma is not fixed. Obstacles that clutter the mind and hinder enlightenment.
The emotion that gripped Jeokcheongang now was the feeling of nervousness.
“I wish I had met him twenty, no, ten years earlier… it’s too late.”
Jeokcheongang raised his hand to cover the moon. He did not like the bright moonlight shining on his wrinkled face.
“It is not like before. both body and mind. The fact that I was able to endure until now was only possible because of him.”
During the year spent on Mt. Jiuhua, Jin Tae-gyeong was not the only one who grew up.
Jeokcheongang also gained some enlightenment through the teachings, and thanks to that, he was able to catch the old man’s steps, which were running steeply.
but.
“You already knew. That Nobu’s congenital spirit was damaged.”
The energy called Seoncheonjigi or Jinwonjingi is the source of everything that makes up the human body and is the source of life itself.
A bitter smile formed on Jeokcheongang’s lips as he remembered what happened in Hanam.
“I have no regrets. I would have done anything to save that child.”
Jeokcheongang’s words were sincere. Even if he went back ten or a hundred times, he would have made the same choice. The situation at the time was desperate.
The Hwasin Ghost Demon (Flame God Demon), who pulled the blood wine to the threshold of death at least once enough to replace the lack of gong by raising the innate keeper, who is no different from life force, has the determination of an old master who burned his life force with firewood. was nestled
“It was something I was fully prepared for. I guessed that even if he survived, it wouldn’t be the same as before.”
Mungyeong looking at the Jeokcheongang without saying a word
He opened his mouth in a low voice.
“I would have. If it wasn’t for the millennium snow ginseng he saved.”
“Yes, it was all luck. That the child found you.”
But the two knew.
Even with the treatment of the faith that the rare elixir, Cheonnyeonseolsam, and the medical technique reached the sky, it was not possible to reverse the Cheoncheonji of the enemy Cheongang.
All of this is just a stopgap.
Even if the collapsed dam was blocked with a large rock, the stream of water trapped in the dam continued to flow slowly and non-stop through small gaps.
“Is that why you came to see me? Are you going to ask him?”
“Well, what do you think?”
Looking at the questioning Jeokcheon River, Mungyeong clicked her tongue and continued.
“Because I’m old, I worry a lot. It’s not too late to think about that even after a few years.”
Each person has a different size and bowl of energy.
An ordinary good citizen or a third-class soldier is small.
If it was a stream, the Jeokcheon River was an endless sea.
He will slowly lose his strength due to the constant disappearance of Seoncheonji, but in the eyes of Mungyeong, who is already aware of Jeokcheongang’s physical condition, his worries were premature.
“I know it because it is the body of an old woman. At least I won’t die today.”
“So stop thinking nonsense and go back. I’d rather catch him and teach him one more lesson this time.”
“But what will happen tomorrow?
is something I don’t know.”
“what? ,,
“Do you think that Seoncheonjigi disappeared little by little, and one day he came because he was afraid of a sudden death?”
Staring at Mungyeong narrowing his forehead, Jeokcheongang spoke slowly.
“I feel it. that is gradually deteriorating. I’ve already passed the death juncture several times that I didn’t feel during the Great War. I wonder if such an old woman will be able to withstand the many battles that will continue in the future… … Only the goddamn someone watching from up there in the sky would know.”
“I n
“A lot of times, that friend said something like that. The heavenly spirit is distorted, and a greater calamity than during the Great War is approaching.”
Fa King Gueng Dao’s prediction came true.
Just a year later, Shaolin, the northern head of Mt. Taesan in Murim, was covered in blood and corpses, and the wise high priest who loved alcohol and meat met his death.
In no time, dark clouds called Amcheon hung over Hanam, Sacheon, and Hobuk.
And I could see the Jeokcheongang. I
That dark clouds would soon cover the world.
“Look, Salseong.”
Deep remorse came out in Jeokcheongang’s eyes as he looked at Mungyeong.
“Unknown things are happening. Everything we knew is crumbling.”
People in the world often compare Murim to the Yangtze River.
Yangtze River Hulangchudian Lang. That is why there is a saying that the back waves of the Yangtze push away the front waves.
But now dark clouds are everywhere in the world
The things that are going on and the strange phenomena… … It wasn’t the Yangtze River, but it was like a reversal of heaven and earth.
Jeokcheon River and Mungyeong. All the rules the two old men knew, who had lived for over a hundred years, were shattered and collapsing.
‘If Jin Tae-gyeong. Especially if what the kid said is true. No, no. It can’t be. It shouldn’t be.’
Jeokcheongang struggled to shake off the thoughts that flashed through his mind.
Just like Jin Tae-kyung always did, it was just a pointless nonsense thrown like a joke.
Exactly that’s what I wanted to believe.
Chen Kang, who was already old and worn out in body and mind, was not yet ready to accept such a shocking story.
“Anyway, I’m asking the old lady. It’s not strange no matter what happens in this F*cking Murim. It wouldn’t be surprising if an old man who was getting weaker day by day like the old man died.”
Mungyeong stared at the Jeokcheon River with strange eyes.
The giant called the King of Fire seemed especially small today, and his calm voice, which spoke of death that might come at any moment, lingered in my ears.
‘ask. please.’
It is hard to believe that the words came out of the mouth of the King of Fire.
Mungyeong silently looked at the Jeokcheongang River, which slowly raised itself, muttered inwardly.
‘Oops, I’m old too.’
Although the body is young, the mind is old.
It is probably for that reason that a corner of the heart that has not had a single drop of rain for a long time gets wet.
“… … after.”
By the time Mungyeong let out a small sigh, Jeokcheongang, who had lifted his heavy hips, was already waving his hand and turning around.
Let’s go. Have a good moon viewing.”
“what?”
What is this?
Mungyeong, who suffered a brief brain freeze, managed to open her mouth.
“Are you going?”
“I have to go. Aren’t you thankful that the intruder disappears?”
“I haven’t answered yet.”
“What are you talking about? I think you already heard the answer.”
“Wait, what is that… …
Answer, good to hear. young friend.”
“No, what a crazy old man.”
The unbreakable composure suddenly collapses.
Mungyeong, who was looking at the back of the Jeokcheongang River with an absurd expression, shouted.
“What do you mean look at me!”
“Teach me something. heart needed
If you have possessions or something that is useful in German martial arts, give it a stab.”
“Germanic martial arts? Unnecessary?”
Mungyeong doubted her ears for a moment.
Dokmun’s martial art is no different from the crystallization of all the minds and gains of one person or school. I couldn’t teach you even if I gave you ten thousand gold, and it was more valuable than life.
However, Mungyeong sincerely asked if he would teach the German martial arts to someone else’s student.
“… … Did you get senile and forget what German martial art is?”
“I know. If you’re not going to use it to wipe your poop, let me know.”
“This crazy.”
“Anyway, there’s no one I can tell you about. Let the old disciple in Sacheon keep saving people, and teach my kid how to kill well.”
Are you saying that now?
Mungyeong was so dumbfounded that he was at a loss for what to say, and the Jeokcheon River, who had only finished what he had to say, was thrown far away.
Wedge love!
“this… … A dog thing.”
