< Episode 92: King Pyeong’s Tomb (3) >
“…I think I’ll fall in love. Yeonsaeng.”
‘!?’
For a moment, I couldn’t believe my ears when I heard King Gyeong’s words.
Are you really the one who was perplexed by the force of Pakungwi Chosa just a moment ago?
Sodamgeom laughed and said as if his belly button hurt.
-I guess the prince liked you in the form of a woman.
‘…….’
If that’s the case, he’s a really great guy.
It’s not about pretending to show off your love for a woman, it’s about attacking a woman you like in any situation.
However, the King Gyeong that I have experienced is not a very light person.
I did my best to ignore what King Gyeong said, and pressed my foot on Chosa Pagungwi’s chest and said,
“Where is he?”
“haha….”
Even though he was in pain at my question, he kept his mouth shut.
okay. It will come out like that.
He had been attending the Geumsangje for as long as three hundred years, but there was no way he could get drunk after just one question.
At that time, King Gyeong came up behind me and said.
“Are you trying to find out who is behind it?”
“……That’s right.”
“The person behind this guy must have a close relationship with King Jin.”
I thought he was going to say something strange again, but he seems to have regained his senses again.
Since he is a writer who deceived everyone by acting in a romantic relationship for a long time, he must have judged the situation to some extent regardless of his martial arts prowess.
“Do you remember what this person said earlier?”
“What do you mean?”
“If he had the right beliefs like His Majesty King Jin, he would have seen it differently, but he told me that it was very unfortunate. “At least he said it before he killed me, so it’s not nonsense.”
“…You’re smart.”
Also insightful.
After hearing Chu Sa’s words, I guessed some of the circumstances.
I also thought that Geumsangje might have a close relationship with King Jin.
King Gyeong smiled lightly and said to me.
“Are you just going to do nothing? To show such great inaction while waving a flowing green suit. It was truly beautiful. “How can such strength be found in those slender arms…?”
“I will apologize for a moment.”
“what?”
-Ta-ta-tak!
“Ugh!”
I took over King Gyeong’s territory by surprise and without warning.
King Gyeong, whose body was pressed down, fell to the floor with a sound of death.
“Whoa.”
I think it would be better to let him sleep after all.
It is clear from his tone of voice that King Gyeong shows considerable interest, perhaps because he is in the form of a woman, or perhaps because he is interested in such inaction in the form of a woman.
-You have skin on your thighs.
It was Sodamgeom, which I immediately recognized because it was under the skirt.
In any case, the important thing was not King Gyeong but Chosa Pagongwi.
The bulging veins on his face subsided again, and the black haze flowing from his entire body disappeared.
“haha….”
As the ominous energy disappeared, he broke into a cold sweat and his breathing became heavy.
Although his energy power exploded, he was rapidly exhausted, and it seemed like there were aftereffects, like a Jinhyeolgeum body that circulates blood quickly.
But I have seen this.
Ja Gyeong-jeong, the excommunicated person who betrayed Master Geom-seon, tried to show me that it was a secret tactic.
It was a thick, dark atmosphere that seemed to be encroaching.
-I let my guard down and died.
okay. He died without even being able to use it properly.
There were many loopholes before power could be derived.
However, Chosa Pagongwi handled the ominous energy, which was similar to Vigilante, much faster and more skillfully.
It may have been improved over a long period of 300 years.
I asked Pakungwi Chosa.
“Did you learn it from Ja Kyung-jeong?”
At my question, the guy frowned for a moment, but then adjusted his expression as if he was conscious of it.
What is this reaction?
Isn’t that what you learned from Ja Kyung-jeong?
After staring at him, I changed my question.
“Where is the golden statue?”
At my direct question, the guy gritted his teeth and glared at me.
Even though he is from a martial arts background, his loyalty is not normal just because he has served him for a long time.
The guy said in an exasperated voice.
“Do you think you can open my mouth? “Don’t insult me for no reason, just kill me.”
“If I cut off your body one by one, would you open your mouth?”

I changed my method and mixed it with threats.
Then the guy snorted and said to me.
“do whatever you want. Do you think I’ll open my mouth like that? “Stupid bitch.”
-Aaaah! Tap!
“Turn it off!”
I pressed the guy’s chest hard.
How hard must he have stepped on it so that it sounded like a bone breaking?
I spoke to him in a murderous voice.
“Even if you live a long time, you still have a rough mouth.”
“……joy! “I regret not being able to kill four years for him.”
I said what I had to say without being discouraged.
I don’t know if I’ve become detached from death because I’ve lived for 300 years, or if I’ve resigned myself to not knowing what to do about it.
I wanted to torture him a little more to make him open his mouth, but I didn’t think his three hundred years of loyalty would crumble from the pain.
In that case, the answer would be to reduce the power of the Geumsangje.
“good. “I learned the important thing anyway.”
With those words, I gestured to the stone wall door that had nothing engraved on it.
The fact that that door is closed so tightly means that the treasure hidden by Seobok did not enter Geumsangje’s hands.
That alone was a great achievement.
Now that we know that he is not yet completely immortal.
I held up the sword and asked one last question.
“I’m not looking forward to it, but it’s the last time. “If you open your mouth even now, I can guarantee your life.”
“Surviving the humiliation once is enough.”
I still haven’t forgotten what happened three hundred years ago.
It looks like the owner or Suhana.
I hit the guy’s neck without hesitation.
-Wow! Degurrrrr!
The guy’s head rolled around on the floor.
-Howling!
I caused Samadhi Evolution in that guy’s body and made it catch fire.
The sound of flesh burning is truly terrifying.
Since he had the ability to recover, no matter how much he cut off his head, it was better to burn his entire body to ensure that there would be no repercussions.
After putting his head in the fire, I moved on.
Among the five stone chambers in the cavity, this is the only one without any inscriptions.
There must be a secret to perfect immortality within this.
Let’s try destroying the asbestos first.
I clenched my fist and stretched it towards the asbestos.
Pakungwi Chosa could not destroy it with one blow, but
-Quaaaaaang!
The entire asbestos shattered into pieces, centered around the area where my blow hit.
But the wall was definitely solid.
It seems like it was made with the intention of preventing anyone from breaking in at this level.
As I waved my hand, the asbestos broke apart and the dust that was blocking my view disappeared.
-there is?
I frowned at Sodamgeom’s question.
* * *
A man with one golden eye came into the dark gold room.
When he came in, the masked people who were doing something inside got up and bowed.
Behind them, someone had his entire body, including his arms and legs, sealed with restraints made of black iron on the wall, and his head was hanging down and he was breathing hard.
Looking at him, the man with one golden eye asked.
“Is that still the case?”
One of the masked people answered that question.
“Perhaps because the recovery is so fast, it doesn’t last long even if you keep repeating the illusion poison and various suggestions.”
“Increase the dose of phantom poison.”
The masked man was startled by those words and said.
“The current dosage is excessive, and if you administer more, your recovery ability may not be a problem, but your brain may completely melt.”
“Does not matter. “I have nothing more to say to him.”
“…….All right.”
That was when the masked person took something from the table and was about to approach someone with his head hanging down.
The man lifted his head with difficulty.
The golden brilliance of two eyes visible through the long hair covering the face.
Although he looked exhausted, his eyes were still alive.
“Hehehehe.”
The restrained gold-eyed man suddenly burst into laughter when he noticed the man with one golden eye.
“This guy!”
Seeing that, the masked men quickly tried to inflict pain on him.
At that time, a man with one golden eye stopped this.
“Stop.”
“Hana Respect…..”
“Go away.”
At those words, the masked people retreated to both sides.
The man with one gold eye walked forward, faced the restrained man with gold eyes, and spoke.
“Why did you laugh?”
“……Ah….easy…..Your Majesty.”
“…Are you sad?”
“I thought you would go in person, but you are still as cautious as ever.”
“what?”
At those words, the thick dot-like eyebrows of the man with one golden eye twitched.
Looking at him like that, the golden-eyed man smiled and said.
“Nothing in the world is…easy…. If you think it is possible to predict with only… a few… sacks… why… five… sacks? …..Do you think it was made…..?”
“…You bastard!”
-Kwasik!
The man with one golden eye could not contain his anger and hit his head.
The golden-eyed man who was looking at the crushed head hurriedly went out of the gold house and ordered someone standing in the dark hallway.
“Tell Chu Sa not to enter the tomb hastily.”
“insect!”
***
The interior of the stone chamber was in the shape of a pentagon, and on the walls of the pentagon were five stone boxes the size of coffins.
The center of the stone room was empty.
-You only have coffins?
okay.
The arrangement structure is unique.
I don’t know why the stone box was placed like that while leaving the center empty.
First of all, the secret to immortality may be hidden inside the stone box, so I should take a look.
It was the moment when I was about to enter the stone room.
I turned my head.
-Aren’t you going in?
wait for a sec.
I turned around again and approached someone.
He was King Gyeong, who was unconscious as if he were dead due to blood clots.
I said, looking down at King Gyeong, who had fallen on the floor.
“How come the acupuncture points were not captured?”
-What are you talking about?
What are you talking about?
At that time, King Gyeong, who had fainted, slowly opened his eyes.
And he looked at me and said.
“How did you know?”
‘under!’
I was dumbfounded by King Gyeong’s sly question.
Not only did the Jeongyao Hwanyi Sutra not work, but now I had directly occupied the acupuncture point, and I didn’t know that it wouldn’t work.
I wondered if he was hiding his skills, but all I could feel was first-class energy.
With this level of internal energy, I cannot resolve my divination points on my own.
How on earth did you solve it?
King Gyeong stood up casually and asked me again.
“I won’t blame you for trying to knock Jim out. “How did you notice it?”
Am I not afraid?
At least he would have known that he was not the real Yeonsaeng he knew.
I said to King Gyeong, who was staring at me intently.
“My breathing has changed.”
“Breath?”
“The unconscious person’s breathing was constant, but the moment the door broke, the king stopped breathing for a moment.”
“Did you hear that little sound?”
King Gyeong asked back as if he was surprised.
“It’s not that small.”
Even if it’s not me, experts who have reached a certain level will also notice this.
Rather, I need to solve the question of how he woke up.
The best way is to check his physical condition directly, rather than by feeling it, and you will be able to tell if he was deceiving you.
“Your Highness, I will be rude for a moment.”
-Pot!
I snatched King Gyeong’s wrist with a golden knife.
If he was hiding his martial arts skills, he adjusted his speed enough to avoid them.
However, King Gyeong later realized that his wrist had been grabbed.
King Gyeong said in an absurd tone.
“This is already the second time. “He acted recklessly after notifying me unilaterally.”
“I think you also know that rudeness can be committed without notice.”
At those words, King Gyeong snorted and said.
“okay. “You could kill me at any time if you wanted to, right?”
“You know very well.”
“If I had the intention to kill one, I would have just let that guy who was turning into ashes try to kill me in the first place. Isn’t that right?”
King Gyeong was confident that I would not kill him.
“There is no such thing as absolute in this world. majesty.”
With those words, I breathed my energy into King Gyeong’s veins.
It was to check his physical condition.
But the moment I put my energy into Mac, I couldn’t help but frown.
-what’s the matter?
The flow of all pulses is not normal.
In fact, there is much more to the human pulse than the martial arts people or lawmakers know.
However, those veins intersected with the flow of major veins, creating a complex structure like a tangled skein of thread.
Moreover, the main meridians are blocked.
There, the hot Yang River energy was blocking the blood vessels and preventing their smooth flow.
I said as if I didn’t understand.
“…How on earth do you endure this pain?”
If my body was in this state, every day would have been like hell.
It was rather a miracle that he was able to walk so well.
King Gyeong replied with a sigh and a smile.
“They say this is the solar vein.”
“Solar vein!”
This is a symptom where all the veins are twisted and major veins are blocked by the energy of the Yang River.
If the nine-syllable vein is a disease caused by yin energy, the solar node vein can be said to be an incurable disease caused by yang energy.
In fact, I heard that it is a rarer disease than oral syllable veins.
It is said that those who suffer from this disease suffer for their entire lives and live a short life.
“Do the others know?”
“Your Majesty and the other kings do not know. In fact, there are only a few, and as of today, you have become one of them.”
There was no way he would have told people in the same imperial family.
If that happens, he will naturally be deprived of his position as heir to the throne.
He is truly a great man.
“So are you looking for the secret of immortality?”
King Gyeong did not deny my question.
“That arrogant congressman who has faith in everything told me. “Even if you control the runaway yang energy with this medicine, not only will you not be able to completely cure it, but it will also be difficult to live past the age of thirty or forty.”
‘God of all things?’
King Gyeong took something out of his chest.
It was a leather pouch, and when I opened it, a cold breeze came out.
Looking at this, it seemed to be a medicine that concentrated negative energy.
It seems that King Gyeong used this to control the runaway energy.
It was definitely the worst incurable disease, as even the God of All Things, who was known to be able to cure all diseases as long as they were not dead, could only prolong lifespan.
King Gyeong spoke to me seriously.
“The king was tired of enduring the pain by taking medicine and drinking alcohol, and seeing his life getting longer by drinking from numerous women every day.”
It wasn’t just an act to fool others.
“What do you want to say?”
“Let’s make a deal with this king.”
“transaction?”
“I just want to get better from this pain. And the secret of immortality behind you is the only hope and the only way out.”
“……..”
“It’s okay if I don’t become immortal alone. I don’t know who you are, but please share your secret with me. “If you do that, I’ll give you whatever you want.”
Although he spoke confidently, he could see desperation in King Gyeong’s eyes.
I thought he wanted to know the secret because of his ambition for immortality, but this was a truly unexpected situation.
I stared at him and opened my mouth.
“I’m sorry, but that seems difficult.”
“what?”
“I’ll be honest with you. “I am worried about what will happen in the future if Your Majesty, who will inherit the throne in the future, becomes immortal, let alone his body getting better.”
“What do you mean?”
“If Your Majesty becomes a so-called tyrant, it will be entirely up to the people to take care of it. “I don’t want to make such an unfortunate incident.”
King Gyeong suddenly laughed at my words.
“Becoming a tyrant? Hahahahahahaha.”
Have I gone crazy?
Or is it because he finds it absurd that he insulted himself?
King Gyeong, who was puzzled, stopped laughing and spoke to me.
“You are the first woman to make such a direct statement to this king.”
“……..”
Of course so.
Who would make a blunt statement to King Gyeong, who is one of the next heirs to the throne?
King Gyeong smiled at me and said.
“I don’t know your real name, so let’s just call you Yeonsaeng.”
“Do whatever you want.”
“If you do it, Yeonsaeng. “How about this?”
“What do you mean?”
“This king makes a promise to you. Even if he becomes immortal, if this king ascends the throne, he will step down after 30 years of reign.”
I couldn’t help but frown at those words.
I don’t know if King Gyeong is sincere in saying this, but I never expected him to say that he would set a period for himself as emperor.
However, there were many loopholes in this statement.
“If you just make a promise in words, how can you be sure it will actually come true?”
King Gyeong said to me what I said.
“If I do this, you will stand by me and judge.”
“Me? “I’m sorry, but I…”
“I’m not asking you to be my subordinate.”
“……What do you mean by that?”
King Gyeong smiled and said in response to my question.
“If this king becomes emperor, you will become empress.”
‘!!!’
For a moment, I was speechless from the absurdity.
Who would have guessed that such words would come out of King Gyeong’s mouth?
The sound of Sodamgeom laughing like crazy resonated in my head.
-The empress. Fuhahahahaha.
It was so ridiculous that I couldn’t stop talking, but King Gyeong continued talking.
“Wouldn’t it be okay for you to become empress and tell me directly so that you don’t become a tyrant by my side and watch over me to make sure you don’t break your promises?”
“……”
It’s truly amazing.
King Gyeong said whatever he had to say.
“A woman like you who is not afraid of me, knows how to speak directly to me, and is strong enough to protect me, wouldn’t it be the same as having gained a thousand armies and ten thousand demons?”
“…You are making me very embarrassed.”
“I mean this from the bottom of my heart.”
I sighed and said to King Gyeong.
“Do I look like a woman?”
“You can change your face with a bast mask, but how can you change your body and voice if you are not a woman…”
-Knock knock!
I brought about changes in my body through embodiment surgery.
King Gyeong was embarrassed by the sight and took a step back.
‘!!!’
The person I transformed was none other than King Gyeong himself.
It would have been better if that were all, but King Gyeong was faced with a mirror-like image of himself wearing the light clothes worn by floating women.
At this, King Gyeong frowned as if he could not bear to see this and spoke to me.
“…Are you insulting the king you saw?”
“Seeing is worth seeing.”
He even had the same voice as King Gyeong.
King Gyeong, who must have been horrified by this, started the game and said in a very disappointed voice.
“…Can you return to the form of a woman?”
“it’s possible.”
“If you do that, come back to Yeonsaeng immediately.”
