< Episode 59 Onboard a Ship (2) >
-Shoot!
The rain was still heavy.
Three men were gathered together before boarding the boat.
They were Seop-chun, the third guard of the main body of the Heaven and Earth Association, Mong Wu-yak, the son of the vice-huaiju and the immediate deputy, and Jae-jeong, the apostate monk of Shaolin.
The reason these three were gathered together like this was for one reason.
that,
“I will be honest. Finance. “I cannot believe your oath of allegiance.”
This was because of the oath of loyalty to the apostate monk Jaejeongjeong.
The reason why dream medicine was so undesirable was simple.
It was because of his origins and notoriety.
He was a Shaolin monk, considered the origin of Jeongdo martial arts, and after becoming an apostate monk, he committed eccentric acts like a madman, regardless of political or political affairs.
Can we really trust someone like that?
Jae-jae-jeong snorted and said at Meng Wu-yak’s attitude.
“It doesn’t matter whether you believe it or not.”
“what?”
“Even in difficult situations, I always keep what I say.”
At his words, Seopchun held his stomach and laughed.
“Hahahaha. It’s a crazy situation. “Are you saying that swearing allegiance to the lord is a big deal?”
“Did you think this would make Daengjung happy?”
He was a person who never hid his emotions.
Hearing his words, Meng Wuyue became even more wary, but Nie Chun, on the other hand, liked him because he had a naturally generous temperament.
“I shouldn’t be happy. “I fell for my master’s trick and pledged loyalty, so how can I feel good?”
“Hmph, you’re saying the obvious.”
“Hana Jae-jeong, since you are also the head of the company, I think you will keep the oath you made yourself, whether you like it or not.”
“Don’t keep emphasizing what this Daengjung said. Even if you guys don’t scold me, I will protect that damned bastard until the end of my life.”
Jae-jae-jeong had the nature of not looking back once he had decided.
Therefore, at that moment, he could not control his anger and went on a rampage, but in the end, he was overcome by Mok Gyeong-un’s intimidation and pledged his loyalty.
In fact, there were feelings here that could not be revealed even to them.
‘······It is for Munhae, Master, and Shaolin.’
It was truly bizarre.
Jaejaejeong felt a strange fear from the guy who had not even signed the terms and conditions.
It may not be right now, but if this guy decides to do so, it seems like he will bring great harm not only to his friend Lee Mun-hae, but also to Shaolin.
This was just a premonition born of instinct.
Jae-jae-jeong, who had this premonition, swore allegiance after receiving a promise from Mok-gyeong-un that he would never touch them.
That moment was truly frustrating.
‘After leaving Shaolin, I only lived to become like this.’
That was the moment I thought.
He was suddenly caught by this thought.
‘······I lived to become like this… ah?’
There was something that my teacher and master of Janggyeonggak, Master Gongjeon, always taught me.
There is cause and effect and natural order in everything, and no matter how hard you try to escape, in the end it has no choice but to follow that natural order.
Perhaps the reason he had eyes like this and the reason he became an apostate monk was to meet moments like these.
‘It’s natural.’
When I thought that all of this was natural, the worries in my heart disappeared.
Now that I had decided to do it, I had no regrets or regrets, and I just thought that if this was the path I had to take, I should do my best.
Mongmuyak said to him.
“I will watch.”
“no. This guy said he would do that, but who are you and saying this and that…”
“Ahhh. Please be patient. “That’s actually how this guy talks.”
Nie Chun grinned and stopped Jae-jeong.
At first, I was wary of the man called Samgwang, but when I got to know him, I realized that he was honest rather than crazy and that he was a good match for me.
Jaejaejeong also said the same thing happened.
“But you seem to be able to communicate at least.”
“Instead of just saying, ‘You guys, you guys,’ since this has come to this, how about we at least make a statement? My name is Seopchun and I am twenty-nine years old. As you can see, I mainly use Tao. “You can do it too.”
“That kind of thing is unfamiliar…”
“Anyway, if we want to serve our master, we will have to continue to be together. Is that how you will come out?”
Hearing Nie Chun’s words, Meng Wuyue shook his head and spoke briefly.
“Dreamyak. “I’m 26 years old and a swordsman.”
“ruler! “This is roughly how we introduce ourselves. Would you like to do the same?”
Hearing these words, Jae-jeong stared at Nie Chun.
In fact, he didn’t particularly like introducing himself this way.
However, he decided to serve Mok Gyeong-un as his lord, and since he might have to be with them for the rest of his life, it was difficult to just ignore it.
“Hmm, as you know, his name is Jae-jae-jeong and he prefers enemy public power.”
“Why don’t we talk about age? “There are so many more than us, so are we just going to ignore them?”
Jaejaejeong frowned at those words.
Since leaving Shaolin, I have never told anyone my age.
I hesitated as to whether I should do it, but eventually said it.

“Age is······. “I’m twenty-six.”
‘!!!!!!!!!!’
As soon as those words were finished, both Mengwu Ruo and Nie Chun were dumbfounded.
He was Jaejeong, who looked to be in his mid-40s just by his grim face and radiant aura.
But you’re in your twenties?
‘A face like this is the same age as me?’
Meng Wuyak made a bewildered expression.
Am I the only one who couldn’t withstand the ravages of time and whose face has faded?
This is my first time seeing presbyopia like this.
Apostate Monk Jae-Jeong-Jeong glared at Dream Mu-Yak and said.
“I really don’t like the look in your eyes. Shall I send you to the Buddha today?”
It seemed like he was going to hit me right away.
Nie Chun had to hastily dissuade him.
* * *
-Kurrrrrrr!
The boat reached the river front through a hoop made of dozens of wooden poles.
Normally, we would have had to move a bit further to get the boat on the river, but since it had been flooded for a long time due to heavy rain, it didn’t take that long to move it.
All the people who needed to board the ship were already on board.
“slowly! “You have to move more slowly!”
“yes!!!”
At the command of Hayun, the vengeful spirit who possessed the body of captain Woo In-yeom, the men from the retired naval forces moved in unison and the head of the ship entered the river.
-Chaaaa!
Perhaps because the boat was so large, the water surged upward when the leader entered.
However, the boat that was moving forward with him started to tilt to the side with a screeching sound.
This was due to the enormous current of the river swollen by heavy rain.
“······Is this really something that can be crossed?”
Seopchun, who was standing at the front and watching this with curiosity, held on to the deck and stuck out his tongue.
Only the head of the ship went in, but at this rate, I was worried that if the whole ship went in, it would quickly be swept away and capsize.
Then, as if the leader suddenly received a force, the tilted part began to straighten up.
“uh?”
What is this?
The water is still rough, but the boat stands on its own.
That’s right,
“Those are…”
“Those things? “What do you see in Geumjeong?”
In Jae-jeong’s eyes, he saw numerous ghosts clinging to the front of the ship.
They were pushing and supporting the boat as it was about to be swept away by the current.
It was truly an amazing sight.
With the performance of the ship itself and the help of this large number of ghosts, it seemed possible to cross the river.
After some time, the ship completely entered the water.
-Kkeeeeeek! Good!
The boat was rocking in the strong current and it wasn’t a mess.
Everyone in the group, including Mok Gyeong-un, had learned martial arts, so they didn’t fall easily, but they couldn’t help but stumble.
It would not be surprising if the boat capsized.
However, the good news was that this ship was supported by numerous ghosts.
-Ooooooooo!
-Hmm!
It might have been a kind of reward for completely destroying the main hall of the manor and holding a ancestral rite for the vengeful spirits before boarding the ship.
Thanks to this, the boat did not capsize despite the rough current and moved forward little by little.
Of course, it was moving diagonally in line with the current.
Hayun, the vengeful spirit possessing Woo In-yeom’s body, tapped her head and spoke to Mok Gyeong-un.
-According to this person’s experience and knowledge, it may take time to cross the river, but if you move like this, you will be able to cross it somehow.
“okay. Thank you for your hard work.”
-······.
Mok Gyeong-un smiled and bowed with both hands to Hayun, the vengeful soul.
A strange look appeared in Hayun’s eyes as she looked at that scene.
It wasn’t something to argue about, since it was an agreement that led to the fight in the first place, but this man was truly unique.
He is a vengeful soul.
Even radiants are afraid or wary of themselves, but this person was treating them like normal people.
Is it to be visible because we need to cross the river safely?
‘No, no. different.’
There is no difference in the way this person looks, whether he is dead or alive.
It’s as if I’m looking directly into existence itself.
He is truly a strange human being.
Is this why a high-ranking being like her follows this human?
While I was lost in thought, Mok Kyung-un spoke.
“If you don’t mind, may I ask you something?”
-What do you mean?
“Apart from the bad relationship between you and the Woo family, the fact that your status has reached the Blue Spirit means that you have had a grudge that can linger for over a hundred years. Can I ask what that is?”
-······.
It was a sufficiently rude question.
If you travel with a high-ranking ghost and have such excellent martial arts skills, you should fully understand what resentment means to a ghost.
However, Mo Kyung-un was staring at him as if he was truly curious.
As if it was pure curiosity.
-······.
She could have just ignored it, but anyway, there was no benefit in dealing with someone like this, so in the end, Hayun, the vengeful soul, spoke up.
-I couldn’t protect it.
“That you couldn’t protect it?”
-I failed to protect the person I was supposed to protect.
“ah······.”
Mok Gyeong-un looked at the vengeful spirit Hayun curiously.
Since most of the resentment comes from grief and a desire for revenge, I knew how to talk about the object of the resentment.
However, the resentment of Hayun, the vengeful spirit, surprisingly came from loyalty.
I couldn’t leave this world for a long time because of my own resentment for not being able to protect someone.
-He was more honest than he looked.
Cheongryeong also commented that Hayun, the vengeful soul, looked different.
However, Mo Kyung-un was not as impressed as she was.
It was just that Hayun, the vengeful soul, had been holding a grudge for a long time for this reason.
“okay. Thank you for your answer.”
With these words, Mo Kyung-un smiled and left the lead.
Everyone was gathered at the front to watch the ship go, but they wanted to go to the stern where no one was there.
-That’s nonsense.
-What?
– When I asked what kind of resentment you had for the sentient being, I wondered if you were thinking of him as a food spirit.
-I am coveted because the status is high, but there are no vacancies anymore.
-That’s right.
The number of food spirits that Mokgyeongun could now consume was limited.
If that were possible, he would have used every vengeful spirit he met as a food spirit and pampered him.
Mok Gyeong-un only asked out of pure curiosity as he saw that even the ghosts who were just miscellaneous spirits followed the ghost Hayun.
Mok Gyeong-un, who was heading towards the stern while walking in a pattern, stopped midway.
-Why are you doing that?
-······Are you going to say you can’t see it this time too?
-what? What are you talking about…huh?
Cheongnyeong discovered something.
That something was sitting on the stern of the boat, holding a long, curved bamboo fishing rod.
Just by looking at the back of his graying hair, you could tell that he was an old man.
-How did that old sentient being get on a boat?
-······That’s what I want to ask.
Even when the boat was launched, it was not visible anywhere around.
But how did you get on the boat?
Mok Gyeong-un, who was puzzled, asked Cheongryeong.
-First of all, you can see it, right?
-okay.
Accordingly, Mo Kyung-un released the magical power obtained from the three eyes on his right.
First of all, I was curious about the identity of the author.
Judging from the fact that he was wearing a bamboo raincoat, it did not seem to be a spirit like a vengeful spirit or some kind of strange entity.
But it was strange that I couldn’t even feel anything.
however,
-Kkuguguk!
The moment the magic power of the three eyes was opened, red blood vessels appeared in Mok Kyung-un’s right eye along with strong pressure.
-Push!
Soon, bloody tears flowed from my right eye.
Surprised by this, the young man shouted.
-Rebirth!
-Park!
Mu Qingyun hurriedly closed the magic again due to the pressure inside his eyes that felt like it was going to burst.
Then he grabbed his right eye, which was bleeding tears.
It was to dissipate the residual energy that caused death energy and even increased intraocular pressure.
-Ssssss!
Fortunately, Mo Gyeong-un’s judgment was right.
As the energy dissipated, the intraocular pressure also quickly subsided.
-Why are you doing this?
-I can’t read your energy.
-what? What does that mean?
-That’s literally it.
When the power of the three eyes was opened, the flow of energy could be observed in detail with the right eye.
He could even read traces of whether it was main power, magical power, or spiritual power.
However, the moment I opened it, my vision turned completely white.
I didn’t understand why, but I endured the white light and tried to read the energy, but my intraocular pressure rose and I couldn’t open my eyes properly due to the pain.
‘Why are my eyes filled with white light? Unless the whole surrounding area is full of energy…!?’
For an instant, Mo Kyung-un’s left eye narrowed.
It was hard to believe.
‘······no way?’
It was then.
-Rebirth! Back!
Hearing Cheongnyeong’s shout, Mokgyeongun looked towards the deck where the old man in bamboo clothing holding a bamboo fishing rod was sitting.
There was no one there.
That means, as the spirit shouts, someone is behind them.
‘I can’t even feel it.’
This was a separate issue from the heavy rain.
The opponent was a monster who could completely hide his presence.
As I was thinking about what to do for a split second, I heard a voice from behind me.
“It wasn’t just a coincidence that I saw Nobu earlier.”
‘!?’
