Episode 548
Wind blowing to the west (2)
“Master Yeon.”
“Are you here?”
Ki Woo-hee was still the same. Her beautiful blonde hair, white skin with a slight pink tint, and eyes full of wisdom and calm were the same.
Yeon Ho-jeong laughed and joked.
“You’ve gotten prettier since I haven’t seen you. “Have you found a guy you like?”
Ki Woo-hee laughed bitterly.
“I’m so busy that I don’t have time to meet anyone.”
“I guess so. Still, I’m glad. “I thought you might have lost some weight.”
“You have to eat a lot to keep up with your busy schedule.”
“good job.”
“Anyway…”
Ki Woo-hee looked around the inside of the Mukryongbu with a tired expression.
“It’s really huge.”
Anyone who enters Mukryongbu for the first time will be surprised by the width of this cave.
It was surprising that the huge tunnel was managed so tastefully. This was something that could not even be dreamed of unless one had considerable financial resources.
“Let’s leave the admiration later and go see the patient first.”
“Is that okay?”
“What can’t be done?”
“Still, I’m a foreigner, so I can at least say hello to the person in charge of this place…”
Yeon Ho-jeong snorted.
“Buju says let’s take a look at the patient’s condition first and then go visit him. “I’m sure he will understand.”
“Are you here?”
Makwon had become quite emaciated over the past few days.
But it only looked that way because of the weight loss. In fact, the whole time, I was spurring my luck and the true energy was flowing healthily throughout my body.
Yeon Ho-jeong said with a smile.
“How is your body?”
“It’s okay. Amazingly.”
“Thank goodness.”
“Just like you said, I was strengthening my strength with fortune all day, and the poison was gradually losing its strength.”
“Most so-called extreme poisons have a yin nature. “It doesn’t mean it’s cold, it means it’s stagnant.”
“If anything stagnates, it’s dangerous.”
“That’s it. For those who have the ability to completely control miasma, it is important to make the stagnant miasma lose its power through constant training.”
“It won’t work for just anyone.”
“Good to see you. As I said before, it wouldn’t have been possible for me. “It was possible because I was a senior.”
“There’s no need to gild it for no reason. By the way…”
Mak Won looked at Ki Woo Hee.
“Is this the famous Uiseongakju of the Murim Alliance?”
Ki Woo-hee bent down.
“I meet the great master of Gangho. “My name is Ki Woo-hee, and I am currently in charge of the Murim League’s Uiseongak.”
“Hehe, it looks like you two decided to paint my face with gold today.”
Makwon, who was smiling brightly, briefly lowered his head.
“Nice to meet you. “I am Makwon.”
“I have always heard of Baek Byeong-shin’s great reputation.”
“That’s an excessive assessment. “I don’t know how the world is going, so I do stupid things.”
There was a subtle bitterness in the humorous words.
Yeon Ho-jeong said.
“Let’s stop with the awkward self-introduction and get into the real story first.”
“People really.”
Mak Won looked at Ki Woo Hee and said.
“You must have suffered a lot because of this person.”
Ki Woo-hee smiled.
“At first, I was so scared that I couldn’t even talk properly.”
Still, her self-esteem rose a lot while working as Uiseon Gakju. A relaxed expression appeared on his smiling face.
“But this person is right. In fact, I want to get this poison stuck in my body out as soon as possible. “I would appreciate it if you could get into the real vein right away.”
“Please excuse me if I do.”
Ki Woo-hee sensed Makwon’s pulse.
She closed her eyes and concentrated her senses as much as possible. Moreover, she was also able to instantly understand the state of anyone who had learned the Neigongsim method.
After a while.
“You are amazing.”
Pure admiration appeared on Ki Woo-hee’s face.
“You have completely condensed that extreme poison and tied it up tightly.”
“This is nothing if you just have the knack for it. So do you know the identity of this poison?”
Ki Woo-hee’s face, which had been admiring, suddenly became serious.
“Yes, it’s a poison I know well.”
A strange look appeared in Makwon’s eyes.
Is this a poison you know well? It was a truly strange statement.
‘hmm.’
Suddenly, Makwon realized that Ki Woohee was from the West.
Also, most of the members of the Shinhwa religion who poisoned him were from the West.
“…if.”
At that time, Yeon Ho-jeong spoke.
“you’re right.”
“hmm?!”
“What you think is correct.”
Makwon’s eyes wavered.
Yeon Ho-jeong shook his head.
“There were circumstances. “Now you can think of us as our own.”
“Huh.”
“Just concentrate for now.”
“Oh, I understand.”
He is a person who belonged to the organization that attacked him. That alone was enough reason to distrust the other person.
However, Makwon was not an ordinary person either. There was no trace of anxiety or wavering on his face.
Ki Woo-hee said.
“The name of that poison is Tuesday God Poison.”
“Tuesday Shindok.”
“yes. It is a poison of positive strength that is extremely difficult to find among poisons. “It is a terrible poison that can kill even a peak expert, even a transcendent expert, with just two or three drops.”
“Hmm.”
“Its nature is also like fire. “Unlike neurotoxins or blood poisons, it is a monstrous substance that increases in size by absorbing the energy of living things.”
Makwon nodded.
“That’s right. “Not now, but until just a few days ago, this poison was sucking up my inner energy and growing in size little by little.”
“Qi is invisible to the eye. So treatment is also difficult. It is rare to treat people who are addicted in the first place. “Most people die as soon as they become addicted.”
“Is there no way to do this?”
Ki Woo-hee shook his head.
“It can’t be. “Treatment is fully possible.”
A look of relief appeared on Makwon’s face.
“I’m so glad.”
“However, it will take some time to fully recover. “The correct drug must be administered in the correct amount at the correct time.”
“Are you saying you need medication?”
“yes. In most cases, it would be possible to stimulate it with needles and extract it along with the blood, but considering the nature of the poison, it is a rather dangerous method.”
“Is it impossible to pull it out with internal energy?”
“If he could have pulled it out, he would have pulled it out a long time ago on his own.”
Makwon nodded. Because it wasn’t wrong.
Ki Woo-hee continued.
“The good news is that, thanks to Lord Dangga, decryption is possible faster and more efficiently than before.”
Yeon Ho-jeong asked.
“Was the head of the party’s opinion helpful?”
“yes. His knowledge of medicinal poisons was similar to mine, but he could not dare to follow Lord Tanga in terms of how to apply and decipher them. “I don’t know how much I learned in that short period of time.”
“Well, he is the head of a family that has been drinking poison for generations.”
Ki Woo-hee said to Makwon.
“First of all, we need a lot of medicine. “Treatment will begin tomorrow, so please focus on poison control today and eat nutritious food.”
“I understand. And thank you.”
“you’re welcome. “A doctor’s job is to heal people’s bodies.”
Ki Woo-hee said while looking at Yeon Ho-jeong.
“I think you could say thank you to Professor Yeon.”
Makwon chuckled.
“He’s not the kind of person who’ll swear at you because he’s embarrassed when you say thank you.”
Yeon Ho-jeong grinned.
“You figured out my personality right away.”
“Thank you, though.”
“If you want to use it well, shouldn’t you make it in a usable state? “You don’t have to thank me.”
“Yeah, I knew you would say that. “Anyway, what is the expected treatment time?”
Ki Woo-hee said with a serious face.
“It depends on the patient’s will, but I think it will take about a month to two months.”
There was surprise on Makwon’s face.
“The treatment period is longer than I thought.”
“yes. “It’s such a strong poison.”
“Hmm.”
Yeon Ho-jeong stood up.
“Anyway, I hope you are receiving treatment well. “Maybe he’ll come back when his detoxification is over.”
“hmm? “Where are you going?”
“yes.”
Yeon Ho-jeong looked towards the northwest.
The cloud-filled sky, which could not be seen from the cave, colored his eyes white.
“I’m going to a place that’s a bit troublesome.”
* * *
Paaaang!
The last move he made properly cut the blowing wind.
“Whoa.”
Paeyul, who was breathing softly, lowered his single spear.
“How do you feel?”
Yeon Ho-jeong said with a surprised face.
“It’s much better.”
“Are you sure?”
“yes. Pure penetrating power has decreased compared to before, but it feels like a balanced development in all aspects. “It was especially amazing how he played with the beat with his walking techniques.”
“Thank goodness.”
Kang-ryang, who was watching together next to Yeonhojeong, stuck out his tongue.
“Who on earth did you create such martial arts to skewer?”
“Shut up the rude junior.”
“…Even if I tell you it’s amazing, you still say something.”
The defeat rate completely ignored Kang Ryang.
“So when?”
“Did you know?”
“Don’t you think there must be a reason why this guy, who usually doesn’t even show his nose, came here at this time of night?”
“It’s clear that your senior’s tact is not normal.”
Yeon Ho-jeong’s face became serious.
“I plan to leave right away tomorrow morning.”
“It feels like my butt is on fire.”
“yes. “Things have become more urgent.”
“why? “I heard someone is being chased like Senior Makwon?”
“There is a high probability that problems will arise in the party family.”
At that moment, Paeyul’s face became as serious as Yeonhojeong’s.
“What do you mean by party?”
Yeon Ho-jeong roughly informed the situation so far.
Because he was so immersed in training, he didn’t even know what happened inside the Mukryongbu. The Mukryongbu itself was wide.
“Has something like that happened recently?”
“yes.”
“Hey, those three schools are really going crazy. Now you’re saying that you’ve mastered magic, right?”
“They are the ones who commit worse than that. This is ridiculous. “The problem is only because of the people they are targeting.”
Paeyul nodded.
“I will go to your residence tomorrow morning.”
“Please be kind this time too.”
Paeyul immediately frowned.
“What are you talking about in such a ticklish way that it’s not like you? “F*ck it.”
“It’s really dangerous this time. “Dangga, Eumje… To be honest, I feel like I want to leave it all behind.”
“Have you ever been in a situation where you almost died? “Stop whining and go.”
“You are so cruel.”
Yeon Ho-jeong and Kang Ryang stood up and left Paeyul’s residence.
Paeyul asked then.
“for a moment.”
Yeon Ho-jeong grumbled.
“You told me to get out, but then you caught me right away. why?”
Paeyul tilted his head.
“Who else is with us but us?”
“I don’t know yet, other than the Iron Blade Danju.”
“okay?”
“yes. But why?”
“Just a little…”
Paeyul said with a shocked expression.
“When I thought about it, I wondered if this could be okay.”
“After all, you are a person too. “Your butthole feels a little tingly this time, doesn’t it?”
“…Don’t you sometimes talk really dirty?”
“I know.”
“I don’t care who wants to die, but I’m used to it as long as I live in the dead of life. “The problem is not that you do it out of fear of dying, but that you do it out of fear of failing.”
“….”
“With this number of people, can we not only handle the affairs of the party family, but also attract Yin Emperor Ha Eungyo to our side?”
Yeon Ho-jeong’s eyes deepened.
“So there is one person who is worried.”
“Who? I’m sure it’s not the lord or the princess, but the white paper?”
“Not this guy.”
Yeon Ho-jeong pointed north with his thumb.
“The Murim Alliance side.”
