Episode 211. The embers revived before the wind (1)
three days later.
“Ughhh!”
Xu Liang’s face, which had been stretched out, looked quite refreshed.
Sangrin Yeo, who was sitting on the stairs and carefully polishing pottery, threw out a word.
“monster.”
“ok?”
“It’s a monster.”
“Why am I a monster?”
“It is a complete monster. Apparently, until a few days ago, he suffered severe internal and external injuries and limped to his legs.”
“It did.”
“You went to Gyojujeon and slept for three days. How do you look fine now?”
“is it?”
Seo Liang shrugged his shoulders.
I was definitely feeling better. Even while sleeping, demons constantly circulated through the body and healed internal wounds.
Internal wounds heal quickly, so the organs of the body are also functioning quickly. When the five organs functioned properly, the operation of the magician became smoother. And the demonic energy that became smooth made it quickly heal even the trauma.
‘Still, it’s still a little threesome.’
I don’t know if he couldn’t deal with internal injuries like before, but now he can quickly heal any internal or external injuries by using the middle battle. However, internal injuries are internal injuries, so it’s good to be careful about your behavior.
“I did a good job with a body like this.”
“yes?”
“no.”
His shoulder, which had been hit by Gogu, was still throbbing. A human who used a long sword suddenly burst into tension, but his internal injuries were so severe that he could not block or avoid it.
Xu Liang glanced at Yeo Sang-rin.
“What are you doing?”
“You clean the pottery.”
“So what are you cleaning it for?”
“Why do you polish when you don’t polish to shine?”
… … yes?
I feel like I’m kind of stupid. Of course, I would have polished it to a shine.
Seo Liang ate his appetite.
“Anyway, I couldn’t tell you because I wasn’t in a good mood… … .”
“You don’t have to apologize.”
“ok?”
“You don’t have to apologize. Not once or twice, but now I’m used to it.”
“Is it once or twice?”
“Anyway.”
Seo Liang coughed in vain.
Looking at her face or voice, it wasn’t that she was sulking or anything. But is it because I am sorry? It was difficult to deal with her because of her.
Yeo Sang-rin laughed.
“You know what a strange person you are?”
“who? me?”
“yes.”
“why me?”
“no. By the way, even if you’re hungry, eat later. Because Hwa-ah is making a quick meal right now.”
“Uh, so… … huh?”
Seo Liang narrowed his eyes.
“Hwaa?”
“why.”
“Is that what you call Aenghwa?”
“I just decided to be my older sister.”
“I see.”
Seo Liang kept shaking his head.
“Good job. In fact, it’s a bit strange for a Dongpil or a crazy, no, great master to be close to Aenghwa. Not to mention me I wanted Aenghwa to have a good friend, but you make it happen.”
Yeo Sang-rin looked at Seo-ryang with strange eyes.
“Not only is he strange, but he is also a curious person.”
“hmm?”
Having grown up in the conflict of the Ice Palace, she lived a rather rough life unlike her age.
The person who saved her when she was young was her nanny, her closest person was a lady-in-waiting, and her reliable escort was a servant. Is that why? She realized early on that her status was not a measure of a person’s nobility.
However, he was aware of how the world saw him and how the common sense of the world was. Looking at it that way, he was well aware of how he would look if he had a sister-in-law with a single lady-in-waiting.
Even so, this eccentric trio was ready to clap their hands saying that it was good.
‘It’s really strange.’
Perhaps these three Gongja are the most suitable people for the Heavenly Demon Goddess. In a world where people are judged by ability rather than status, they must have lived thinking that anyone could become a strong person.
At that time, Aenghwa came out of the kitchen.
“Whew, it’s hot. How about this amount… … uh?”
Aenghwa lowered her head.
“Confucius! Are you awake?”
“uh? Uh uh.”
“Are you hungry? Please wait a minute! I’ll prepare you a meal right away!”

“No, I just eat myself today.”
Xu Liang pointed at the kitchen with his chin.
“I’m done with my meal, so if you’ve made a quick meal, let’s stop by the Blood Spirit Hall together. I want to see Dongpil’s face.”
* * *
“Go, Gongja!”
Ma Dong-pil straightened his upper body.
The face of the senator standing next to him was distorted. I said don’t force yourself to move, but this man doesn’t seem to have anything to learn.
Seo Liang shook his hand.
“Lie down, man.”
“Oh no!”
“This is it! do you want to die?”
“… … .”
“Lie down, bitch. What are you going to do if the hardships of the lawmakers here become nothing because of you?”
Ma Dong-pil lay down again with an awkward face.
Seo Liang asked the legislator.
“How is this guy?”
The legislator folded his back as if in a state of ecstasy.
“I am very good at recovering very quickly. At first, I saw two months, but as the days go by, the demonic energy grows stronger. In this state, I think I will be able to get up after about 15 days.”
“You worked hard.”
“no. It’s what we have to do.”
“Still, that’s not how people feel.”
Xu Liang took out a small pouch from his bosom and put it in the doctor’s hand.
“I didn’t know what to bring because I didn’t say thank you very often. Just replace it with this one.”
“yes?”
“I know you are busy, but when you take a break, have a drink with your colleagues. Thank you for taking good care of him.”
Surprise spread across the senator’s face. He didn’t know that a person of the level of the Three Gongja would show such kindness.
It must mean that Ma Dong-pil is an important person to the Three Gongja.
“Go, thank you.”
“My kid made some light meals, can I feed him?”
“of course. The short meal made by the handmaid was not lacking compared to the short meal made at the main school. It would have been more sincere, so it would surely be good for the patient’s body.”
Seo Liang smiled.
It’s not easy for the word “sincere” to come out of Mine’s mouth. Although it is notorious in the central plains, the Cheonma Shinkyo, but good lawmakers were similar in all neighborhoods.
“Please clear up your seat.”
“Yes, then.”
The senator went out with gunfire.
Xu Liang brought a chair and sat down.
“Is it worth living?”
Ma Dong-pil calmly replied.
“of course. It could happen right now.”
“I can get up, but I won’t be able to swing the sword.”
“… … .”
“Good job.”
“no. Rather, because of my inadequacies, I pressed on to Confucius… … .”
“Don’t go anywhere and say things like that. How many people do you think there are in the world of Jungwon who have reached that level at your age now? It was just bad luck this time.”
“… … .”
“And what… … .”
Seo Liang sighed.
“I have to apologize.”
“Go, Gongja!”
“Right. It has come to this point because of me. I have no face with you and Aenghwa.”
Surprised, Aenghwa shook her head. It was so fast that it made a whooshing sound.
“No, Gongja!”
“no. It wasn’t a fight that would draw you in. As a result, I was incompetent. Please don’t let this happen in the future.”
“… … .”
“I really wanted to say this.”
Aenghwa was restless. Every time Confucius said something like that, I was shocked and at a loss.
On the other hand, Ma Dong-pil’s face was calm.
“Gongja. Do you remember what Confucius said earlier?”
“hmm?”
“Before I went to Sohyanggok in Hyeongsan, Confucius said this to me. You too should make a choice.”
“… … .”
“I answered like this. It was a relationship that started with an order from the top, but I said that I had already made a choice and that this choice would never change.”
“It did.”
“Again, Confucius said the same thing. Someday, the time will come to use me as a long-term word. And I answered like this. Even if you say you will use it as a mere pawn, I will gladly accept your order.”
He shook his head as if he couldn’t stop.
“You remember everything.”
“I remember everything Confucius said.”
Ma Dong-pil’s face became serious.
“You don’t have to apologize to me, Confucius, and you shouldn’t. Don’t you have a dream, Confucius?”
“… … .”
“I chose to become the sword of Confucius to make that dream come true. If that’s the case, it’s your duty to wield that sword to your heart’s content.”
“Right.”
“I will become an unbreakable sword. Just grease it once in a while. That is enough for me.”
Seo Liang smiled.
“Your speaking skills have improved while I haven’t seen you.”
“thank you.”
“It’s not a compliment.”
“… … .”
“I’m kidding, man.”
Dongpil Ma scratched his cheek.
Xiliang unpacked the bundle Aenghua had brought. Then, an appetizing aroma filled the room.
“I tasted a little bit and it was very good. The liver was a bit weak, but a patient would never have another meal like this.”
Seo Liang rose from his seat.
“Please take care of Aenghwa and Dongpil.”
“yes!”
Ma Dong-pil, who was supported by Aeng-hwa and carefully raised his upper body, asked.
“Where do you want to go?”
“okay. I’ll stop by once in a while, so I’m making sure I’m recovering.”
“All right. ah! and… … .”
“why?”
Ma Dong-pil’s eyes deepened.
“I heard the conversation of the lawmakers, did you spare Lee Gongja?”
“however?”
“Be careful.”
Xi Liang’s eyes shone.
Ma Dong-pil, who knows his skills, tells him to be careful. It must have been that he felt something out of the ordinary.
“At that time, those who attacked us were people who were united in their loyalty. Otherwise, they wouldn’t have dared to attack us, the people of the Three Princes.”
“I guess so.”
“But looking back, I realize it wasn’t just out of loyalty.”
“huh?”
“… … I am sorry to say this, but it seems that there are people who have a grudge against Confucius.”
Seo Liang’s eyes flashed.
“Resentment?”
“yes.”
“How did you know that?”
“Because I read to live in their eyes. But their lives, strictly speaking, were not directed at us.”
“Is it for me?”
“I think so.”
The sense of a master master is incomparable to that of a master master. In particular, Ma Dong-pil’s senses, trained with Seo-ryang, are more sensitive than those of an equal level master.
I can read the will mixed with the killing spirit and even the direction the will is headed, albeit weakly.
If Ma Dong-pil said something like this, it would surely not be something that could be overlooked.
“It’s to the extent that I even think that the Grand Duke and Lee Gongja did not instigate them, but that they instigated the two. If you can’t catch all of them, they could most likely get close to the person with the knowledge.”
“At that time, all the attackers were locked up in prison?”
“Can I ask how many there were?”
“seven.”
“There were a total of twenty-five people who attacked us. And those who died by my sword are fifteen.”
“… … There are three left.”
“That’s right.”
Seo Liang nodded.
“i get it. I will investigate separately.”
“Please be careful.”
“OK. Take care of yourself too.”
Xu Liang, who came out of the blood soul, looked up at the sky.
“These days, I keep looking at the sky. Seeing that blue thing doesn’t solve my worries.”
The sage’s eyes softened.
“… … Are they the ones who have a grudge against me?”
The atmosphere is heating up again.
