Episode 146. I heard something I shouldn’t have heard.
Perhaps because he had heard such an incredible story, Yeon-jeok couldn’t answer right away.
Muyeonggeom Baeksan continued speaking as if talking to himself.
“It’s not a difficult task. When I killed Han Baek-in, Han Mu-jin, the owner of Byeokgeommun, treated me like a criminal. However, I was satisfied with killing Han Baek-in and let him say whatever he wanted. However, now that I’m facing death, I regret what happened back then.”
“Tch! Why did you do that? They say that revenge should be done in abundance so that there are no regrets… … … .”
“Haha. That’s right. Maybe I was conscious of other people’s gazes even then… …. At that time, I didn’t want to hear that I was going against the agreement.”
Yeonjeokha looked at Baeksan with complicated eyes.
Why is the past of the person who killed more than ten monks and became a twelve-legged soldier so sad?
“Han Moo-jin hid the crimes committed by his son and made me a bizarre murderer who took revenge. I deserve to die, but I want to reveal the truth about that day. You do it in my place.”
“Are you telling me to reveal that Han Baek-in committed a murderous act?”
“Yes.”
“Okay, that’s not much of a problem. I’ll give you whatever you want, so don’t be attached to this world.”
“thanks.”
Baeksan closed his eyes with a relieved expression.
When the ten horsemen die, they turn into horsemen, so dying now would be for the good of the world.
“… … .”
When Yeonjeok-ha hesitated and could not bring himself to do anything, Goocheon-no also felt angry.
“Your Majesty, I will do it in your place.”
Even if the opponent was a demon, taking a person’s life would have aftereffects. Simtong didn’t want to see Yeonjeokha suffer from nightmares again.
Instead of refusing, Yeon-jeok took a step back.
What if it happened during a battle between life and death?
After hearing about his many personal stories, I couldn’t bring myself to do anything.
Without a moment’s hesitation, Simtong pulled out the leaf sword and cut off Baeksan’s head.
Crunch.
Immediately afterwards, the head separated from the torso and fell to the deck with a thud.
People watching from afar let out a short scream of ‘Ah!’ at the sudden beheading.
But what really shocked them was what happened after that.
My head exploded with a ‘pop’ sound.
And then the torso started to swell up and down.
Splash. Splash.
The sound of bones cracking echoed throughout the ship.
It was so loud and sharp that it drowned out the sound of the water hitting the hull.
Immediately afterwards, a being with a human head and the body of a snake slithered out from Baek-san’s body.
It was like a snake shedding its skin.
Although he had a human form, he was completely different from Baek-san.
A head as big as a pot lid had snake eyes the size of a fist, and a forked tongue was constantly flickering between its lips that were split long enough to reach down to its ears.
Its two short front legs, like those of a mythical dragon, were equipped with sharp claws like the tips of spears.
Other than that, it was similar to other monsters from before. It had a reddish-black skin that was cracked like a turtle shell, and a pungent smoke was pouring out of it.
Yeon-jeok-ha, recalling the last appearance of the empty Baek-san, clicked his tongue lightly.
“Tch!”
Baek-san and In-dusa (human-headed snake) really didn’t go together.
After adjusting to some extent, the inducer slowly released the fly while glaring at Simtong. Then, the inducer’s head rose to the height of almost a jang (about 3 meters).
Simtong, startled, quickly moved behind Yeonjeokha.
The cold eyes of the monk who was following the heart reached Yeonjeokha.
He did not avoid the eyes of the person he was dating.
At that moment, the priest’s mouth opened slightly and a strange sound came out.
“Kukuk-.”
“Huh! Are you laughing just now?”
Yeonjeokha looked up at Indusa with a dumbfounded expression.
At that moment, a commotion arose among the people on deck.
Several old men lay on the floor and shouted repeatedly.
“Oh my! Brain God!”
“The Brain God is angry!”
“Please save me!”
The indoctrinator’s eyes briefly glanced at the people and then returned to Yeonjeokha.
I wanted to end it right away, but I held back.
It’s to show the abilities that Indussa possesses to Seolchasu and his party.
Still, that expression, as if looking down at the food, is really unpleasant.
“Come in. Come in.”
The Indusah finally moved, as if he understood the words of the man in question.
Hwaaak. Green mist poured out from the mouth of the Indusah.
The fog spread widely from the height of three chapters and then gradually settled down.
At that moment, Namgung Yeon shouted briefly.
“It’s poison! Enemy, we have to clear the fog!”
Yeonjeok, who came to his senses at that sound, immediately unleashed the Gucheongugeom Samsik Pungcheonsochuk above his head.
Wheezing. Kwakwakwa-.
The wind that had accumulated at the tip of the sword soon became a typhoon and pushed away the green mist.
As the fog cleared away, Indussa wagged his tail roughly as if he was angry.
Shhhh.
He poured the Seven Dragon Breaths of the Nine Heavenly Laws on the tail that flew horizontally.
Pufferpuck.
“Kyaaaa!”
A scream escaped the inducer’s mouth at the extreme pain transmitted from his tail.
In just one encounter, the expression on Indus’ face changed.
The Indusas no longer regarded the Yeonjeokha as food and were cautious in their movements.
Whoaah.
Once again green mist covered the sky.
The sight of the temple is so obscured by fog that it disappears for a moment.
Yeonjeok casted the Wind Chimes spell once again.
Wheezing. Kwakwakwa-.
The wind gathered at the tip of the sword became a typhoon and pushed the fog upward.
Just then, the tail of the indusa, which had approached silently, wrapped around Yeonjeokha’s upper body.
But there is more than just Yeonjeokha there.
Simtong, who had been watching Yeonjeokha, shouted in a loud voice and swung his leaf sword.
“Hey! Where are you going!”
As the leaf blade struck its tail, another scream escaped the Indusha’s mouth.
Yeon-jeok, who was furious at the cunning tactics of the Indus, kicked the floor and flew up.
The lotus flower, which had flown up to the height of three chapters, flipped over and moved to the side.
The method of the Nine Heavenly Kings’ Eight-Form Nine-Dragon Rebellion has been revealed.
“Kyaa!”
The inducer tried to grab the scorpion with his short forelegs, but missed every time.
When unfolding the Nine Dragons, the enemy was like a butterfly.
Finally, Yeonjeokha turned over and pointed the tip of his sword at Indusa.
It was the last lightning strike of the nine thousand year old law.
Flash. Boom!
As the thunderbolt struck his head, the man fell down like a kite with a broken string.
Yeonjeokha followed the falling Indussa like a shadow.
And then, without a moment to breathe, he unleashed the nine-heavenly sword, one-sixth of an eclipse, and the descent of the wise woman.
Crunch.
The sword that had pierced the indusa’s head came out from under his chin.
thud.
He did a handstand in mid-air and slammed the sailor’s head into the deck.
The torso of the indusah, which was about 5 jang (about 15 meters) long, flapped on the deck.
Several old men who were bowing were hit by the tail and rolled around.
As time passed, the wriggling torso gradually lost strength and sagged.
Once again, the vein between his eyebrows burned and Yeon-jeok became slightly nervous.
Lately, I’ve been thinking that maybe the world of Mujeonggang is real.
Yeon-jeok, who was being sucked into the dark world, hurriedly looked around.
“Kyaaaaah!”
‘omg!’
Yeonjeokha’s mouth fell open as he looked back.
In the darkness, a monk was holding his head and convulsing.
‘Can you hear the sound?’
Before it was only visible, now it can be heard.
‘Surely I’m not supposed to be here?’
The thought of that gave me goosebumps.
Just as that monster came and went from this world to the next, did he also come to the afterlife?
“Kukuk.”
“haha.”
The laughter of the inductees could be heard from all directions.
My body felt like it was being sucked backwards when I felt dizzy.
“ha!”
A sigh of relief escaped Yeonjeokha’s mouth as she returned to reality.
Pusss-.
The giant body of the pulverized Indussa disappeared in the strong wind that happened to blow.
Ten blue lights rose into the sky, sky, sky.
For a moment, he put his hands together and prayed for the souls of the monks who were sacrificed without sin.
Simtong, who approached quietly, said.
“Your Majesty, you don’t look well today.”
“Oh. I heard something I shouldn’t have heard.”
“Ah! Are you talking about the nonsense of country bumpkins? Don’t worry about that.”
He looked around with a trembling, carefree face.
It seemed like Simtong was misunderstanding something, but he didn’t try to explain it.
At that moment, the people on deck started to murmur.
I see a few people pointing to the water, so it looks like there’s something in the river.
Yeonjeok absentmindedly turned his gaze towards the river.
Hundreds of fish were floating on the surface of the boat, capsized, and drifting along the waves.
Namgungcheon came up to me and spoke in a serious tone.
“It seems like he died from the poison from that poisonous snake earlier. Even the poison from the five great cults of Tangga wasn’t that bad. If you hadn’t pushed away the poisonous snake, it would have been a big problem.”
Yeonjeokha nodded as if he agreed.
I didn’t know what they meant by “danggani o-daejeoldok”, but I could tell that Indu-sa’s poison was scary.
“Brother, by the way, people say that when they see a monster, it’s a brain god. What does that mean?”
“Ah! That’s something people say without knowing. It is said that the Brain God has a dragon’s body and a human’s head. He is called Taeho Bokhee, Bokhee, etc.”
“Ah! That Fuxi? The one who created the Bagua?”
“Yeah. But that monster’s body wasn’t a dragon, it was a snake. Its eyes were gouged out.”
Jin Seol-ha sneakily joined the conversation.
“That’s right. Where do you see that? It’s clearly a ‘headmaster’.”
I found myself chuckling without realizing it, responding to her words.
I thought I was a shaman too, but I was called by the same name.
“Huh? Why are you laughing?”
“No. I think you named it Indusa well.”
“Hehe. I have a talent for naming things, don’t I? By the way, I’d like to hear Yeon So-hyeop’s opinion on Indusa. Oh, and Ma-ryong too.”
Jinseolha looked at Yeonjeokha with eyes full of anticipation.
“Hmm, that’s a flat one. You probably already know that the poisonous dance of the Indus is scary. Ah! Unlike the other monsters before, it was cunning. It made you pay attention to the poisonous dance and attacked you with its tail.”
“Oh my! I didn’t think of that. I should write it down. And?”
Even though it was already recorded, he ignored it and played along to the rhythm.
Yeon-jeok, who was not aware of the speed and was proud, continued to speak.
“The claw attack is also very sharp. From a distance, it uses poison, and up close, it attacks with its tail and claws. You just have to be careful of that.”
“Yes, and what about the dragon?”
“Once it flies, it will be difficult to deal with. And you must avoid the flames it spits from its mouth at all costs. If even one spark touches its body, it will not go out until it turns to ash.”
“Haa! This is scary.”
A sigh escaped Jinseolha’s mouth.
How will the Justice League accept having to fight such an opponent?
Simtong, who had been listening from the side, chimed in.
“Hehehe. No matter how plausible you write it, no one will accept it as fact. Who would believe that the Ten Horsemen are demons of the underworld? Even I, who saw it with my own eyes, am having second thoughts. What do you think, Confucius?”
“Huh? What?”
“Do you think the Twelve Horsemen are demons from the underworld?”
“Hmm! I don’t know about anything else, but I’m sure it’s not from this world.”
I walked towards the bow of the ship.
The turbid river water was flowing violently.
Before I knew it, I felt like I was caught up in a huge current that I couldn’t resist.
Wuxia,
