Chapter 229
“… … Are you leaving? For a year?”
“yes.”
“In the end, did you decide that?”
As he nodded, an indescribably complex light passed over Jin Yujing’s face. Joy, Disappointment, Bravery?? .
He was silent for a while, and held a grand ceremony toward the Jeokcheongang River.
“Please take good care of our youngest, no Taekyung. Jeok Daehyeop.”
“Okay, get up. As you said, he’s not enough, but the old lady will take care of it, so don’t worry. Cuckoo hum!”
when did you say that I said I’m asking for you, but I don’t think I said I was lacking.
But it’s not a match for words.
Jeokcheongang calmed down his twitching lips and opened his mouth.
“It’s light, so I’m thinking of leaving right away.”
“Hey, are you talking about today?”
“Say it for granted. Traditionally, once a man has made up his mind, he must act without hesitation.”
Qin Yuqing’s expression became even more gloomy. He sighed deeply as he looked at me and the Jeokcheon River with a face covered in dark clouds.
“All right. I’ll pack my backpack right away.”
“You don’t need a moose for a backpack. Is this training or river cruise?”
“What is your destination?”
“Anhui Province. It’s just a quick walk away.”
Suddenly feeling ominous, I asked.
“How far?”
Qin Weiqing replied.
“At least one month.”
“yes?”
“That is also a story when riding a horse.”
Is this old man senile?
Jeokcheongang, who checked my expression, shouted.
“That’s the story of slow people! It won’t take even a month with the old lady’s footsteps!”
No Sibeol, if you put it that way, the jet is faster, so why are you walking?
I quickly grabbed Jinwigyeong’s hand.
“Please pack your suitcase well.”
“This guy!”
“Or I won’t go.”
“What, what?”
“I am the child of the house. I have no intention of consuming glass unnecessarily. Since we are going, let’s go comfortably.”
I have money, but what do I do to buy trouble? It’s great if you can go comfortably.
I don’t want to go that far in the yard where I logged in, leaving the soft bed behind.
and… … .
“There are places to stop before leaving.”
“Turn it off.”
Jinwigyeong also added a word toward the Jeokcheongang, which was silent.
“I also have something to tell you.”
“You to me?”
“Yes. It won’t take too long.”
“If you’re going to talk nonsense, stop.”
Qin Weiqing shook his head resolutely.
“It’s important enough that even Daehyeop should know about it.”
What’s going on?
It’s a serious expression that I haven’t seen in a long time.
Jeokcheongang, who was silently staring at the truth, clicked his tongue.
“Ban Shi Jin. no more.”
“Enough.”
This time his head bent towards me.
“So are you guys.”
“yep.”
That’s enough time for me too.
In case you change your mind, I answered quickly and left the office so that the two could talk comfortably.
Now, the clear sunlight and wind, which is hard to say in winter, welcomed me.
“Oh, the weather is nice.”
Finding the next destination was easy.
Looking up at the blue sky, I moved toward the cliff in the distance.
Whoops.
The iron sword splits the air with a heavy punch. One more time, one more time, with a posture without even an inch of error.
How long has it been since you started your day like that?
The young man holding the sword hilt did not know.
The place he was now was in a cave where no light came in, and the passage of time had long been forgotten.
Hiss!
The tip of the sword trembled. It was a subtle difference, but it was an unacceptable mistake for the young man.
According to the rules he set, one mistake is a hundred extra.
again
The young man silently swung his sword.
It is a harsh physical training that must be completed with pure strength and stamina without using any air power.
If it was a decent military man, he would have collapsed from exhaustion long ago, but the young man, Jin Moo-gyeong, was different.
‘It’s done perfectly. No matter how many times, no matter how many years it takes.’
I picked up a sword at the age of five. Every time he swung his sword, he loved the sound of the wind tickling his ears, and he enjoyed being drenched in sweat.
Twenty years passed like that.
At some point, people started calling him by a name other than Jin Moo-gyeong.
‘The culmination of the terms and conditions. There is no such thing as a genius. ‘Are you Jincheon Sword?’
He only trained because he liked martial arts and because it was fun to become strong, but he was the pride of his family and was called a martial arts genius.
There were times when I was proud of the unknown that I had earned myself.
However, I realized that all of that was just an empty name.
‘Blue wind.’
Hiss!
The moment I remembered the name, the tip of my sword twitched. Add one hundred times.
I tried to close my eyes and control my breathing, but my shaky heart is out of control.
Suddenly, the memory of the first time he met Cheongpung popped up in Jin Moo-gyeong’s mind.
‘strong.’
That was the first thought I had when I saw him.
Normal body with a clear impression like a boy. An iron sword hung haphazardly from the waist. It was a sloppy attitude and attitude, but I knew it right away, and the expectation soon turned into reality.
It was a more painful defeat than ever before.
When I remembered the moment when I was on my knees in about 300 seconds, my teeth clenched and my hands tensed up.
Hiss! Shhh!
The agitation of the heart was fully revealed in the sword.
The stable posture collapsed, and the sophisticated movements as if measured with a ruler were disturbed.
One hundred times, two hundred times, three hundred times… … That was when mistakes snowballed.
“Why is the sound so brutal?”
“……!”
A familiar voice came from beyond the iron gate that blocked the training hall.
Jin Moo-kyung’s new model, who was swinging his sword as if possessed by something, stopped abruptly.
“Is this your guy?”
“You know, what are you asking? disappointingly.”
Undoubtedly. There is only one person in the Jin family in Taewon who can speak so hatefully against Jin Moo-gyeong.
Jin Moo-gyeong asked, thinking of his younger brother beyond the iron gate.
“How long have you been there?”
“About one or a half?”
“… … Right.”
Contrary to the answer that seemed insignificant, his face darkened.
It was because I thought I had missed the mark because I was caught up in my emotions.
“good. I am training.”
“What is training? I don’t know if it’s anger.”
“what?”
“Just listening to it makes me feel angry. No matter what you do in that state, can you become a practitioner?”
Jin Moo-kyung’s eyes trembled.
It was a surprise to see through the iron gate and the distance between the two of them, accurately seeing through their own condition.
‘This guy… … Could it be again in the meantime?’
It can’t be anything but a terrifying growth rate.
However, before the surprise was over, Jin Tae-gyeong continued.
“I am leaving.”
“You are leaving?”
“huh. I decided to learn martial arts from the King of Fire, no, Noya.”
Hwawang Jeokcheongang. I heard that he visited the family.
If it had been in the past, I would have rushed out of the training hall and banged my head and asked for a lesson.
but endured Because I knew better than anyone that this was a process that I had to realize myself.
‘But why did he want that guy… … No, the reason is overflowing.’
The guy behind that iron gate is a real monster and deserves to be called a genius. If it’s a fire king, he’s more than aware of its true value.
Deeply convinced, Jin Moo-kyung opened his mouth.
“Have you become his disciple?”
“It’s not like that. Like a disciple, like a disciple who isn’t a disciple. It’s something like that.”
“… … What bullshit are you talking about?”
“Don’t bother trying to understand. Has this happened once or twice?”
“That too.”
“Oh, just move on.”
After a moment of silence, the two laughed at the same time as if they had promised.
It was because they were dumbfounded even thinking about how this was a conversation going on.
“Did you come to say that?
Do you want to be seen off?”
“What is seeing off? You have to expect it.”
“if?”
“One year left.”
Jin Tae-kyung’s calm voice continued.
“Seongra Daeyeon (星羅大宴)
“Seongra Daeyeon.”
Jin Moo-gyeong murmured like a moan. The banquet hall of countless stars embroidered with the Eight Emperors of Guju and the Four Seas. That is the Seongradae kite.
“Why do you do that to me?”
“I will attend the Seongra Daeyeon. I am also Cheongpungdo”
“… … What do you want to say?”
“That’s something to think about on your own. Ugh.”
The last word was heard with a chuckle that seemed to rise from the seat.
“Goes. See you later.”
jerk, jerk
The sound of footsteps slowly receding has completely stopped.
downturned silence. Jin Moo-gyeong stared blankly beyond the iron gate, where the presence of people had disappeared.
‘Seongra Daeyeon.’
he’s not stupid
I fully knew why and for what purpose Jin Tae-gyeong came to the training-dong and brought up the word about the Seongra Daeyeon.
“It’s been a year… … “
Jin Moo-gyeong, who shook his head low, grabbed the hilt of his sword.
The turbulent heart and the shaking sword tip calmed down before I knew it.
“bye. See you later.”
Jin Moo-gyeong muttered a greeting she hadn’t been able to say to her brother who was leaving a long way, and swung her sword like lightning.
Whoops.
It was a perfect blow, without an inch of error.
What awaited me after exiting the training building and heading straight to the office was an empty chair without an owner and a message from an unmanned escort.
“I told you to go to the front door?”
“yes. You certainly said so.”
Is there something going on?
I put my doubts aside and walked towards the front door. And it wasn’t long before he was able to see some familiar faces.
“Chief!”
”Benefactor!”
“Gongja Jin, are you here now?”
Hyukmujin, Cheongpung, Wolhwa.
And that’s not all. Others could be seen over the shoulders of the three people who approached first.
Lee So-wol awkwardly shakes her hand, and Maehwa Samjeol stands there with an expression that she doesn’t know where I am and who I am.
“How did you all know?”
Wolhwa smiled.
“Because it’s Haomen.”
“… … Did you plant a spy?”
“Oh, you are a spy. do you need something like that? You have such a great source of information.”
Following Wolhwa’s fingers, he saw Hyuk Moo-jin proudly holding out a heavy travel bag.
“I packed the captain’s luggage in the order of Lord Soga!”
“… … uh, yes You are the culprit.”
”yes?”
“no. good job.”
I tried to leave as quietly as possible, but nothing went the way I wanted.
As soon as he accepted the bag with a sigh, Cheongpung grabbed the collar and hung on.
“Benefactor! I want to go with Eunin too! I want to be an enemy grandpa’s apprentice!”
“Then ask for permission and come.”
“Whose permission?”
“Who is it? It’s a great match between the Sword Master and Maijong.”
“I already got it! It’s done!”
Baek Moo-seong muttered with an expression that the world was over.
“He’s been missing for over a month now, so how on earth did he get permission?
After barely removing the blue wind, I asked Baek Moo-seong.
“What are you planning to do now?”
“Whether you go back to the main mountain with Sasuk Cheongpung, or search Jungwon where you followed the traces of Sabu Tae. One of the two.”
”Ugh.”
Baek Moo-seong burst into laughter at my reaction.
“Haha, how can anything in life be easy? I plan to leave as soon as the letter arrives from the head office.”
Also mentally ill. I even have a lot of respect in my heart.
After finishing the conversation with Baek Moo-sung, I turned my head. Next to the petite Eun-Hyang, a 2-meter tall body trembled.
“mind.”
“… … Why why.”
“It’s just, let’s forget about the past and get on well.”
When he smiled brightly and asked for a handshake, Cheol-woo, a large-scale figure, hesitantly shook his hand.
“Then, let’s reconcile with this… …
“Dumb.
“Your child is abusive. Don’t show off and smile.”
Along with the sound of bones snapping, Cheol-wu’s hand, twice as tall as mine, was crushed as if it had been pressed by a compression press.
I tightened my grip and whispered in his ear.
“Don’t mess around. Do you know what that means?”
“Ah, got it!”
“good. Keep that attitude for the rest of your life.”
Cheol-woo sighs when he lets go of his hand and backs away. Seeing that scene, Eun-hyang, the youngest member of Maehwa Samjeol, stuck her tongue out.
“… … To think there was someone stronger than Iron Brother. After all, the world is wide.”
On the one hand, it is also narrow. No matter how big this continent is, the people you meet are bound to meet.
Maybe these people will meet again someday.
“Let’s see each other later when we meet.”
“It was nice to meet you too.”
I nodded my head to Eun-hyang and turned around, and there was only one person left.
An awkward air flows between me and Lee So-wol.
I don’t think it was this far at first, but I’m not sure why Lee So-wol feels more and more difficult.
‘Is it because I got a proposal?’
Even if it was a arranged marriage, I struggled with the awkwardness of the proposal, but I barely opened my mouth.
“Hey, Moonlord.”
“Please call me Sozer.”
“Ah, yes. Then this sauce.”
“yes. Be careful.”
I looked at Lee So-wol’s slightly drooping eyelids and then brought out the words I had prepared.
“May you be at peace throughout the house.”
“Your business is thriving, and that’s it. In any case, I wish you well in everything you do.”
ok, good job For Lee So-wol, the owner of a family, there is no better word than this.
It was the time when I was trying to see Lee So-wol’s reaction with a hearty smile.
“What are you laughing so hard about?”
With a clear voice, the old man of Dangu appeared from afar.
He came with a jinwigyeong and wipin on both sides, and without a moment to say anything, he snatched my neck.
“There is a long way to go. Come on, follow me.”
“Now, wait a minute.”
Hey profit!
But it’s already too late. People’s faces are quickly moving away.
Qin Wei-gyeong waved a handkerchief with reddened eyes and shouted.
“Youngest! Be sure to come back safely!”
… … Saying that makes me even more anxious!
