Episode 9: Nine Birds (1)
‘What the hell is this……’
Bangsak couldn’t hide his embarrassment.
If I was not mistaken, the sensation just now definitely surpassed the level of a yellow spirit.
This was more unexpected than the pain of being hit back.
A vengeful spirit above the imperial level?
“Sak Bangsa? are you okay?”
Mrs. Seok, the godfather, helped her up and asked.
Sak nodded to this question.
Although he was struck back, he avoided fatal internal injuries because he was protecting his body with a protective amulet.
“Cluck cluck…”
“What happened?”
“I received what was sent to Yeoksal.”
“Accepting the assassination? “What does that mean?”
“Literally. Priest Myoshin lost his life after being killed by a vengeful spirit. So, with the help of the Northern Emperor, I sent it back to Vengeance, who had brought down the weight.”
“But you mean you threw it away?”
“yes.”
Mrs. Seok frowned at her answer.
What does this mean?
I don’t know how to take it that she, who is a superior swordsman than Myoshin, bounces back what was sent in reverse.
“Can’t we solve this problem if we do that?”
-Sigh!
In response to Mrs. Seok’s question, Bangsak wiped the black blood from the corner of his mouth and said,
“It’s not a matter of solution.”
“What do you mean?”
“Things have become more dangerous than we had imagined.”
Mrs. Seok asked back with concern as Sak’s voice became more serious.
“Is it dangerous?”
“If the status is at the imperial level, it would be enough to send a reverse killing and exterminate the weakened vengeful spirit with a talisman. But that went wrong.”
“Wrong means…”
“It’s an evil vengeful spirit of a much higher rank than that.”
Mrs. Seok asked in a tone that she could not understand what Sak said.
“Is there such a thing as a vengeful spirit?”
“yes. “You can think of it as a measure of risk.”
“Then the imperial spirit just now? Did you say imperial spirit? “Anyway, you said it was a higher-ranking vengeful spirit than that of the Imperial Spirit. How much more dangerous is it?”
She responded by pushing back her tangled hair.
“In fact, even at the Imperial level, it can be said to be very dangerous because it can kill people directly and even result in loss of life. But beyond that, even those who have dealt with monsters cannot help but feel nervous.”
“And the radiations?”
“yes. “It is quite rare to see a vengeful spirit that is green spirit or higher.”
“Why?”
“In order to become a vengeful spirit above a green spirit, the grudge must have persisted for decades or have suffered great pain, but for most vengeful spirits, the grudge naturally fades over time and is exterminated on its own.”
“……So, do you mean that green spirits are vengeful spirits that have survived over a long period of time?”
“yes. A vengeful spirit that has existed for decades. That is the green spirit. It is not easy to obtain a revenge spirit of such a high rank, even for those who specialize in this work. “In most cases, those with five or more titles, the lowest rank, have to risk their lives to be ordered out.”
Those who received the title of Waterproof, such as Bangsa Myoshin, were the presence of a green spirit that they could never handle.
In response to Sak’s words, Mrs. Seok asked carefully.
“So, does that mean the vengeful spirit that haunted him is a decades-old green spirit?”
“Maybe.”
Sak guessed so.
Even she had only seen anything higher than that twice.
It would be no exaggeration to call them almost disasters, but I didn’t think they would be that bad.
In the first place, if it were a vengeful spirit of that level, the Yeonmok Swordsman here would have already been stained with blood.
The radius range itself was incomparable to those below the green spirit.
That’s why I was sure it was a green spirit.
“Sak Bang… It’s so dangerous, can you handle it on your own?”
In response to Mrs. Seok’s question, Sak held out his hand.
“……What does it mean?”
“You will have to pay additional silver.”
“What is it?”
“If you are at the level of a green spirit, five hundred silver coins are not enough. “You need to put it on a cloth.”
“……..”
I never thought I would bargain in this situation.
It was not Mrs. Seok, but rather Hoie Hoang, who was dumbfounded by Sak’s words, but intervened.
“A thousand silver coins? Anyway, you can buy a lot of rice bags with just 500 silver coins. Do you think that makes sense?”
“You can’t compare silver and life.”
“life? under! I think you may be mistaken in saying that it was your wife who requested it, but this is a samurai house. “It’s not a place for ordinary people…”
“In that case, the guard warrior can solve it.”
With those words, Bangsak tried to leave the warehouse.
‘What a bitch!’

The guard, Hoin, seemed to be unable to tolerate her behavior any longer and blocked her path.
“Who is saying that they will just go as they please?”
“Please get out of the way.”
“Unless you spit back what you received or something…”
“no. are you okay.”
“what?”
The guard Hoang was puzzled by the sudden remark, but Sak glanced at the lantern on his shoulder and murmured soothingly.
“calm down. “Goodbye.”
‘!?’
There was nothing in Jodae.
But why am I talking to myself like that for no reason?
Hoang, the bodyguard, asked if this bothered him.
“Are you saying that there is something in Chodae? Just like before, you are talking as if there is something…”
-Passsss!
It was before I even finished speaking.
A subtle crunching noise heard through the ears.
Hoang looked there.
‘huh?’
There were sacks piled up and there was nothing in them.
But again, a crunching sound came into my ear.
And here and there.
– Crunchy! Crunchy!
-Sigh!
With a nervous look on his face, Hoang placed his hand on the sword at his waist.
It was an unpleasant sound.
I could hear it all over the place and it was very annoying.
Then Sak waved his hand and spoke in a stern voice.
“Guy. stop.”
As soon as that happened, the crunching sound that had been heard here and there just a moment ago stopped in an instant.
Hoang, who felt ominous for no reason, asked in a somewhat dejected voice.
“Bah…what was that just now?”
In response to her question, Sak shook his head left and right and said,
“Don’t provoke Gu Ye.”
With those words, Sak placed his hand in the empty air above the table and pretended to stroke it.
I did that before too, but I couldn’t figure out what was going on.
“There’s nothing, but…..”
“Guyeo is very shy.”
“no. “What on earth is going on?”
“Guyeo is the native Imaemangryang of Yeoasan Mountain, located at the end of Galsan Mountain.”
“Imaemangryang? “Could it be a monster?”
“It’s similar.”
Imae Mangryang (魑魅魍魎).
To be precise, goblins and monsters in the mountains are called imae (魑魅), and monsters that live in rivers or the sea are called mangyang (魍魎).
Since ancient times, people have called these things “Imaemangryang.”
“Guyeo is Imae Mangyang, who became my food spirit. Of course, even if they are very shy, they will never forgive harm to their owner.”
-Good luck!
As soon as he finished speaking, the torch flickered and an unusual shadow appeared behind the table.
‘What is this?’
Hoang saw the shadow and took a step back with a scared face.
There was clearly nothing visible on the table, but a large shadow with a body twisted like a snail, a bird’s beak, and a snake’s tail was waving.
The sight was so bizarre.
“If you have nothing else to do, please get out of the way.”
Sac tried to get past João, who was terrified.
At that moment, Mrs. Seok spoke.
“for a moment!”
“……..”
“Can you really deal with that vengeful spirit or something?”
The corner of Sak’s mouth, who had his back turned to that question, slowly rose.
I thought I couldn’t refuse anyway.
Although it is said to be very dangerous if its level is that of a green spirit, if you are a skilled person who knows how to use food spirits, you could handle it somehow.
Sak wiped the smile from his mouth and turned his head with a serious face and said.
“The spirit must have been very angry because I received the reverse attack. “If we don’t deal with it right away, there could be a bigger disaster.”
Mrs. Seok looked at Sak with sharp eyes.
Then I soon made a decision.
“great. Silver coin cloth. “Let me pay.”
“It is prepaid.”
“……”
This radioactive bitch.
It seems like he is secretly obsessed with money.

Mok Kyung-un slowly opened his closed eyes.
Everything was different from when I accepted the energy of health through normal fortune telling techniques.
Rather, these cold and dark energies, which were accepted as a retrograde technique, were able to breathe freely as if they were wearing clothes that fit their body.
It didn’t disappear even after it got into my stomach.
‘Was this the answer?’
This was better than accepting the energy of health that did not suit my body.
What’s more, you can even use fortune telling.
But there was one problem.
‘Write it down.’
This energy of death was significantly less than the energy of health.
It was barely even one-tenth.
It was at the same level as dry spring water, so no matter how much I prayed, it couldn’t be filled properly.
‘It’s a shame.’
If I could secure more energy, I felt like I could form something called Danjeon with this energy of death.
Wouldn’t it be quicker to kill someone in moderation and intentionally absorb the energy of death?
‘Hmm.’
Mok Gyeong-un thought about that for a moment.
However, it seemed difficult right away.
The more you kill people carelessly, the more restrictions there are, so even if you were to kill someone, a somewhat thorough calculation was necessary.
Otherwise, you could end up in trouble like before.
‘Would you rather ask them?’
If you were a demonic spirit or a demonic spirit, you might not have known where this energy of death was distributed in large quantities.
So I found a demon horse,
‘huh?’
The horse’s condition looked pretty bad.
He was sitting on the floor and leaning against it. There were wounds all over his body and something like a gray haze was rising.
I don’t know why it’s doing this.
Moreover, Gowi Gochan was sleeping on the bed in the pharmacy in a strange position, as if he had passed out.
‘what?’
What happened while you were crying?
While I was wondering, someone’s voice rang out.
-joy. It’s a lot of work. rebirth.
The owner of the voice was Cheongnyeong.
She sits on the bed, holding a bear in her mouth and exhaling thick smoke.
She said, lifting Mok Gyeong-un’s chin with the end of the stick.
-Are you really a living human being?
“I guess he might have died. “My heart is beating normally.”
-Hmm. If he was alive and well, he should have drawn the energy of health, not the energy of death, and performed a proper fortune-telling exercise.
“Did that even go wrong?”
Cheongryeong snorted at Mo Kyung-un’s question.
It is not a concept of something being wrong.
I was just curious about something that deviated from reason.
-Do you ever feel like your heart is going to explode or your head is going to explode?
“Yes, by the way.”
-That’s strange. It’s strange. I have never met a sentient being like you.
“is that so? But can I ask you something?”
In response to Mok Gyeong-un’s question, Cheong-ryeong put the gombangdae back in his mouth, took a deep breath, and then exhaled, saying in an annoyed tone.
-Whoa. What do you want to know?
“It’s nothing special. “How can I collect more death energy?”
-What are you going to do with all that? Did you really intend to use that energy to form a Danjeon?
“That’s accurate.”
Hearing Mo Gyeong-un’s words, Cheong-ryeong twitched his red lips.
Although he hated this sentient being who had tied him up, he was also curious.
If you form a dantian with the energy of death rather than health and deal with it, what form will its power take?
‘It is the energy of death in a living human body….’
It’s quite interesting.
She said as she fiddled with her fingers.
-good. I’ll tell you. There is the easiest way.
“what is that?”
-Just kill it.
“…….What if you’re going to kill me?”
-When living things, whether human or otherwise, die, the energy of health changes into the energy of death. That’s probably what you absorbed as well.
At first, even Cheongnyeong was skeptical.
In the first place, living humans cannot absorb the energy of death.
Hearing her words, Mok Kyung-un slightly smacked his appetite and said.
“That’s too bad. I think it would be faster that way, but it would be quite annoying. So it seems difficult to kill them right now. “What about other ways?”
‘It’s a shame…’
The more you get to know this guy, the more he is different from other ordinary humans.
Should we say that the thinking is completely different?
-If it is difficult, change the place and time.
“Where and when?”
-In the first place, a place like a pharmacy is a place that saves people. When the energy of health is overflowing, how much energy of death do you think it will take to collect it?
“Hoo.”
Mo Kyung-un nodded as if he understood.
Seeing this, Cheongryeong shook his head and continued speaking.
-The time when the energy of health is at its peak is at dawn before the sun rises. Because it is the time when life is born, it is filled with the energy of good health. When is the opposite?
“Is it around sunset?”
At those words, Cheongnyeong sighed and laughed.
-no.
“No?”
-You may think so, but there is a different perspective that is full of morale.
“When was that?”
-From the time of the child to the middle of the time of the year. This is called the perspective of the dead.
“The perspective of the dead? “It seems like it.”
-The peak is at axial menarche, which is in between. At that time, the energy of death is most prevalent.
“If I do that, I guess I’ll have to aim for that time. Then it would be a good place to have a place full of evil energy. “For example, at the graveside.”
-Your head is spinning that much. rebirth.
Cheongnyeong raised a red corner of his mouth.
Then, perhaps because he was aware of his own facial expression, he quickly turned his face to a straight face.
Mok Gyeong-un sighed inwardly at the sight of Cheongnyeong like this, but spoke without showing it.
“Thank you for letting me know. But can you tell me why Gochan Guard and Ma Seung are acting like that?”
This was also a car I was curious about.
-You’re curious too quickly. That sentient being is you…
Cheongryeong quickly changed the subject, as if he felt it was a waste to say that he did that because he was trying to prevent him from committing suicide with retrograde luck.
I’m trying to talk while pointing at the demon horse.
-Whoa whoa whoa….
A strange sound was heard from outside.
It sounded like a bird crying, or in some ways it sounded like a fox crying.
As I was puzzled by this, I heard a crunching sound from somewhere.
Mok Kyung-un looked there.
‘what?’
It seemed to be near the left side of the bed, but there was nothing there.
– Crunchy!
But this time the sound came from the right side.
So I looked there again, and this time there seemed to be nothing there.
This was a car that thought this was strange.
-square! square! square! square! Sssssssssssss!
Sounds came from all over the place.
When I turned my gaze towards that place, something black was creeping up and filling the floor.
They were none other than bugs.
There were all kinds of bugs, and the number of them was difficult to count.
“……What is this?”
-It turned out to be more troublesome than I thought. rebirth.
“yes?”
-Guyeo da.
This appears in the Mountain Sea Classic, one of the three major forbidden books in the Central Plains:
Deep in the mountains of Yeasan Mountain, there lives a beast named Gu-yeo.
It has a bird’s beak in its mouth, eyes like an owl, and a tail like a snake.
Gu Yeo avoids people.
Guyeo’s cries sound like she’s calling her own name.
The place where Guyeo appears is inevitably infested with bugs, and because not a single grain of rice can be harvested, it eventually becomes a wasteland.
