Episode 636
Summary (6)
That night.
The moonlight that rose in Hwiyeongcheong was very beautiful. Unlike the Sacheon sky, there were almost no clouds.
It was quite windy, but the humidity was just right so it wasn’t that cold. It was a good night.
Danggwan, who was drinking alone in the pavilion in the back garden of Gajujeon, suddenly felt a sense of popularity and turned his head to the side.
The official frowned.
“late.”
Yeon Ho-jeong quenched his appetite.
“sorry. “I have something to think about.”
“I have a lot on my mind.”
“Do you drink a lot?”
“It’s okay to change your mind.”
Yeon Ho-jeong climbed into the pavilion and sat across from the official.
The official said as he filled his glass.
“It’s a five-liang amount. “I made it myself at my home.”
Yeon Ho-jeong smiled.
“I guess it must be a really rare drink since you don’t buy it.”
“It is seven times more expensive than what is sold on the market. Even after that, there isn’t much left.”
“What kind of alcohol is so expensive?”
“If you only pour cheap white liquor, you don’t know the value of silk.”
“Aren’t you drinking to get drunk?”
“noisy.”
The two people clinked their glasses.
Yeon Ho-jeong had a look of surprise on his face as he coolly emptied his glass.
“That’s really good.”
The official frowned.
“Tell me properly how something is good, whether it tastes good or smells good.”
“…If it’s good, it’s good. Do I even have to add that explanation?”
“A guy who doesn’t know how to drink.”
You’re so picky.
It’s the person’s fault for being late, but isn’t the reaction really fun? Yeon Ho-jeong smiled and filled the restaurant’s cup.
“It seems to be much heavier than what I used to drink on base. “I already wanted to drink strong alcohol, but it turned out well.”
Tang Gwan’s face relaxed.
“It’s heavier and more harsh. It’s the original vision. I also brought Geonamchun, so drink it all and go.”
“Do not worry. “It’s horse drinking. It’s horse drinking.”
So the two people exchanged glasses.
“How do you feel? “How do you feel?”
“What do you mean?”
“Didn’t you open a martial arts drama?”
Yeon Ho-jeong chuckled.
“Are you asking again?”
The official answered honestly.
“Because I’ve never been up there before. “I wonder what the world looks like when I open the Mugeuk.”
Yeon Ho-jeong stroked his chin.
“It’s hard for me to say anything because I haven’t really felt it yet. “I didn’t even look properly.”
“Weren’t you late while training?”
“yes. “I thought about my conversation with the head of the Moyong family.”
The official’s eyes became sharp.
“Moyong family head?”
“yes.”
“What did you say again with that snake-like tongue?”
Yeon Ho-jeong smiled bitterly.
“Just this and that.”
It seemed like he didn’t really want to talk.
I filled my glass as if the restaurant was steaming.
“It probably hurt my pride. You must have felt a sense of crisis. “I’m sure you were even more shocked than I was.”
“That’s right.”
“The road ahead must have been difficult. “I wanted to become the Murim lord and I had a solid plan in place, but then you, a static b*stard, flew high into the sky. How heartbreaking it must have been.”
“….”
“Maybe I gave up.”
It’s sharp.
His moment-to-moment response ability may be worse than Moyonggun’s, but Danggwan did not win the position of head of the family by playing mahjong.
Yeon Ho-jeong smiled bitterly.
“It seems to be in a similar state.”
“Did you even declare defeat? “It may not be true of his personality, though.”
It would have been better to declare defeat.
Yeon Ho-jeong shook his head.

“By the way, it looks like the party line has almost been resolved.”
It was obvious that he was trying to change his mind, but this time the official pretended not to notice.
“All collateral has been brought in and the personnel selection process has been completed.”
“That’s incredibly fast.”
“The youngest helped me.”
Yeon Ho-jeong smiled.
“I haven’t seen it properly, but I expected that Tangyun Grand Hyeop’s capabilities would be considerable.”
“It wasn’t at a significant level. “I was entrusted with quite a lot of work, but as soon as I got my hands on it, a lot of the work was done in an instant.”
“Talented people are silent.”
“okay.”
“I looked around and there was a lot of renovation. “More than during the day.”
“The workers at the main house are skilled.”
Yeon Ho-jeong smiled and filled his glass.
The official who was quietly looking at Yeonhojeong asked a question.
“When?”
“yes?”
“When are you going to leave?”
“….”
“Isn’t the reason you came out of the Ink Dragon Club just to take care of the affairs of the main family?”
Yeon Ho-jeong emptied his glass.
“I have to leave within three days.”
“Three days.”
“Instead, I plan to help with the cleanup. “The existence of paradise cows is not just the Tang family’s business.”
The official shook his head.
“It would be easier if you helped me, but if you’re busy, you don’t need to help.”
It didn’t sound like something I said for nothing.
Yeon Ho-jeong asked.
“Are reinforcements coming separately?”
“Yes.”
“Where…?”
“Where would it be?”
Yeon Ho-jeong, who looked at the hotel for a moment, chuckled.
“Did Dragon Head Ark apologize?”
The official shook his head excitedly.
“You’re really as quick as a poisonous snake.”
“I gave you the word. “We benefited from the opening up a bit, but that guy also crossed the line a little bit.”
“It is said that after the situation in the main family calmed down, they immediately arrested the elders associated with the paradise. “It looks like they were preparing in advance.”
“He grumbled that it was difficult.”
“The position of master of openness does not only speak the truth. “It has many faces that we don’t see.”
“It seemed so.”
Yeon Ho-jeong nodded.
“If Yongdu Ark said it would help, it would really help. “There may be many masks, but the truth behind them is real.”
“It worked out better. The number of openness levels in one region is as large as several major factions combined. “The work will be done quickly, and cleaning up Paradise won’t take long.”
“We will also have to deal with Cheongseong and Ami.”
“It was already moving. In fact, it can be said that openness is leading the work there.”
“Then I’m glad.”
“okay.”
The two emptied their glasses in silence for a moment.
The party official was the first to break the silence.
“You’re going to appease the Emperor of Yin?”
Yeon Ho-jeong sighed.
“First of all, we have to look at the person’s environment and condition. “If Emperor Yin joins hands with the Three Schools, he will have to choose between appeasement or fighting.”
“That must be a pain in the ass.”
“But we still don’t know if Yin Emperor has become corrupted. Rather, if you look at the information from the Mukryongbu….”
“This is probably not the state you were hoping for.”
“yes?”
I picked up a pouch that the officer had left next to the liquor table.
I guess I was originally planning on bringing this up at a drink today.
“Take it.”
“What is this?”
When I opened the fairly heavy bag, I saw a small black bead inside.
Yeon Ho-jeong’s eyes lit up.
“Is it a small fire bomb?”
“I thought so too.”
The official shook his head.
“The engine mechanism is not much different from that of Hwatan. “But it was incredibly sophisticated.”
Yeon Ho-jeong, who was looking at the beads here and there, suddenly brightened his eyes.
There were small holes throughout the beads. These were holes whose diameters became narrower toward the center.
“As you said, it’s exquisite.”
A conical hole was created in this small bead without any error.
In addition, there were several extremely fine holes here and there on the inner wall of the hole.
It was so small that it was difficult to see it with the n.a.k.e.d eye unless you were a super expert. Although the meaning of these holes is difficult to understand, the mere fact that the iron was crafted in such detail can be said to be an amazing piece of technology.
“This is an item held by demons from the Gwanghyeolgyo.”
Yeon Ho-jeong’s eyes suddenly became sharp.
The official continued.
“They say that the moment it exploded, a huge sound wave swept through the surroundings. “To be precise, it was vibration, but whatever it was, it was something that temporarily directly affected the masters’ internal energy and five senses.”
“Is that possible? “You use it by exploding sound like a bomb?”
“Sound is vibration, and the principle of instantaneously amplifying vibration to create a shock wave is understandable. But…”
The official shook his head.
“It’s impossible. normally.”
Yeon Ho-jeong frowned.
“It looks like the damn Gwangbloods have succeeded in accomplishing that impossible task.”
“There are not many intact items, so we are still researching them. “I cut it in half and looked at the inside, and it turned out that it had a design that was twice as complicated as an ordinary Hwatan.”
“hmm.”
“Honestly, even with my own eyes, I couldn’t figure out which device did what.”
Although not as good as his Tang brother, Tang Gwan was also a person well-versed in various studies of the Tang family. In particular, as he was a master of the art of memorization, he had extensive knowledge of Hwatan, which can be said to be a type of memorization.
It can be said that it is a truly amazing technological system, to the extent that such a company can speak of it.
“But I can assure you. This sonic bomb never works on its own. The point is that it cannot function as a fuse like Hwatan. In the first place, vibration is not a substance like gunpowder, so it cannot be contained internally, so it is actually natural.”
“then…?”
“It doesn’t seem to be a technique, but rather an auxiliary device that maximizes the frequency of vibration through specific internal energy to produce explosive performance.”
It was difficult for Emperor Yeonho of the world to understand everything the official said. This was because there was no knowledge in that area.
However, I was able to understand what the officer was trying to say.
“Are you saying this is something made by Emperor Yin?”
“Or, Emperor Yin may have passed on his martial arts skills so that this object can do its job.”
“….”
“Or maybe the Yin Emperor belonged to the Three Schools to begin with. “We cannot rule out the possibility that Emperor Yin was a direct descendant of Gwanghyeol’s martial arts.”
Yeon Ho-jeong’s face hardened.
“That…”
“I know. It’s not something we can be sure about yet. Even if it is not an eumje, if this level of technology is available, Gwanghyeggyo could have developed it and put it to practical use on its own.”
“….”
“However, handling yin means manipulating vibration, and among the martial arts people in the world, there is no one better than Yin Emperor when it comes to handling vibration.”
“….”
“It would be best to be on the safe side.”
Yeon Ho-jeong played with the beads in silence.
The official added:
“The good news is that you opened a martial arts drama. “If I hadn’t reached that level, I wouldn’t have been able to survive three sets, but now I can at least make teeth marks on my forearms.”
“What a metaphor.”
“Of course, even if we open a martial arts drama, it is only the beginning. Although I have not reached that level, it is said that even among the holy heavens, their strength varies greatly. “If you aim for a head-to-head match, you will most likely die.”
Yeon Ho-jeong nodded.
“I guess so.”
The official, who was looking at him in silence, opened a bottle of Geomnamchun and filled his glass.
“Don’t die.”
Yeon Ho-jeong smiled.
“Are you worried about me?”
The official said bluntly.
“I have not yet repaid the favor I received. “If you are going to die, do so after paying off your debts.”
“haha.”
“If you make your original family into a shameless family that does not know grace, you will not be able to go to the afterlife even when you die.”
Although it’s a party-style cheer, I can’t shake the feeling that it’s really bloody.
Yeon Ho-jeong nodded.
“I will never die.”
“I promised.”
The two shared a drink in silence again.
It was past midnight and it was time for the celebration.
“Did you say three days?”
“yes. “It’s past midnight, so it’s been two days now.”
“Go see your father.”
“yes?”
The official said as he emptied his glass.
“He said he had a gift for you. “He is a quick-witted person and seems to have sensed that you would leave soon.”
“You don’t have to do that.”
“Go and get it. I may not know it, but it will help in the fight against the evil emperor.”
Yeon Ho-jeong’s eyes lit up.
“…I really have to go.”
