< Episode 23, Sihyeolgokju (4) >
Cheongryeong, who sensed Mo Kyung-un’s intentions, clicked his tongue inwardly.
Why are there all these guys?
This is the Lee family that has remained loyal to him across generations for over 100 years.
But watching that loyalty being snatched away like this made me angry.
I felt like I wanted to immediately break the sealed wooden doll, jump out, and hit the sentient being’s head with a stick.
But the anger didn’t last long.
‘What are you trying to do? ‘Rebirth.’
Rather, I became curious about Mok Gyeong-un’s intentions.
He could have borrowed the power of the Lee family through himself, but was there a need to snatch it away like this?
At that time, Mok Kyung-un opened his mouth.
“I knew I was him and he was me, so why did you stay silent?”
“that……”
At these words, Sihyeolgokju Lee Ji-yeom paused for a moment.
I knew very well what the word possession meant.
Isn’t it literally like being possessed by a ghost?
‘His possessed body?’
So should we consider this guy, Mo Kyung-un, to be the owner of Wolmaek?
Although there were consulting occultists in the Cheonjihoe, he was hesitant because he did not have much trust in such strange things.
Also, I feel strangely uncomfortable.
Then Mok Gyeong-un said.
“Even though you saw the spirit body in person, you still don’t believe it?”
-The atmosphere is all different. Would you believe me if I suddenly lied and said I was possessed?
Cheongryeong clicked his tongue and intervened.
Mok Kyung-un smiled and said.
“I was sure that he would have continued his loyalty across generations, so I am disappointed that he revealed this secret.”
“I, no, that thing that belongs to me…..”
“If I keep my promise, will I be able to trust you?”
“What if you say that time?”
“Red flame sword method.”
“no way?”
Lee Ji-yeom’s eyes trembled.
That was because he remembered what his grandfather had said when he was learning the red-flame sword technique.
[Daeyeomgong (待炎功) originally created the fortune-telling system together with himself and Lee Hae-bi. I was trying to create a deep hole that best suits the red flame sword technique. However, such a tragedy occurred before it could be completed.]
Likewise, Mok Gyeong-un also remembered what Cheongryeong had said.
[At one time, I made a pact with the head of the Lee family, a man named Lee Hwa-moon, who was his concubine. We will complete the unfinished Daeyeomgong together.]
However, that promise was not fulfilled while he was still alive.
It was done after death.
As her status as a vengeful spirit increased over the years, she began to find the opposite sex, and began to realize things one by one that she had not realized in her lifetime.
One of them was the Daeyeomgong of the Jeokyeom Sword Technique.
Mok Gyeong-un said, extending his hand to Lee Ji-yeom with a smile.
“I came back as a vengeful spirit with so much resentment, but if the Lee family follows me once again, I will tell you about Dae Yeom-gong’s completed fortune-telling, which I only learned after death.”
‘Damn sentient beings!’
Cheongryeong grew irritated at Mo Kyung-un’s words.
I had already told him what was wrong with Gugyeol and what needed to be changed.
An average person would forget this after hearing it, but
‘This kid must have memorized it, right?’
Mo Gyeong-un’s memory exceeded common sense.
He was so angry that he tried to see how he could persuade him without his help.
But my loyalty has really been hijacked.
‘Completed cloud structure….’
Lee Ji-yeom’s eyes trembled even more at Mok Gyeong-un’s words.
Three generations, from his grandfather to himself, tried to complete Gugyeol somehow, but failed.
In fact, this was difficult to complete in the first place.
This was because they had to take on the great risk of having to directly check the heat energy in their body while sending it to the acupuncture point, which could result in their life being lost.
[I don’t know if I would have completed it if I had been with him.]
‘Grandfather…’
[But you can do it.]
Lee Ji-yeom felt sad as he remembered his grandfather again.
In response, he looked at Mo Kyung-un’s face, pounded his throbbing heart, and got down on one knee.
“I am not kneeling because of the completion of the precepts I belong to.”
“If you do it, what is it for?”
“Because you have not forgotten the pact you made with your grandfather, or rather with our family, I would like to swear your oath of loyalty once again.”
“A promise…”
“How can anyone carelessly doubt you when you come back as a vengeful soul and try to fulfill the long-awaited wish of my grandfather and our family?”
-Park!
Then Lee Ji-yeom completely fell to the floor.
“Lee Ji-yeom, the head of the Lee family and the owner of Sihyeolgok, once again pledges his loyalty to the master of Wolmaek. Please accept my bow!”

He then hit his forehead on the floor three times to show his loyalty.
Mo Kyung-un, looking down at this, raised the corners of his mouth as if satisfied.
Then the voice of Cheongryeong rang in my ears.
-You crazy sentient being. If it’s not stealing loyalty, what are you doing?
“……..”
-It’s not like I’m going to be dragging you around forever since you’re dead, and since I was your previous disciple, did you feel relieved that my loyalty, which I was supposed to inherit if I stayed still, was forcibly taken away?
He must have been quite angry.
This is my first time seeing a young man talk so much.
In fact, regardless of resentment, it would be strange to say that he is not angry because he stole the loyalty of a loyal subject who had waited for him for 100 years.
You probably think of yourself as trash.
one,
‘Well, I understand your feelings, but my goal is not to be swayed by the Blue Spirit.’
There is only one reason why Mok Kyung-un came here.
It is revenge on the person who killed his grandfather.
I came to find a person called Ghost Sword who might be related to him.
However, when a young woman comes to the forefront and moves her former subordinates and wields that power, things only go in the direction she wants.
Mo Gyeong-un did not want the situation to be created that way.
‘It’s just incidental to me.’
Resolving Cheongnyeong’s grudge was never a priority for him.
If she wasn’t in a relationship with a food spirit, she was also a vengeful spirit that would have tried to eat her.
Nowadays, it is said that due to the absolute relationship of Yeon, they even formed a relationship with a priest, but basically, Mok Gyeong-un never trusted anyone.
Therefore, there was no intention of giving the initiative to the young man.
* * *
“Is this… the structure that your lord completed?”
Sihyeolgokju Lee Ji-yeom received the advice written by Mok Gyeong-un with trembling hands.
I couldn’t hide my excitement because I had been trying to complete the ritual for three generations and it was one of my family’s long-held wishes.
An exclamation flowed from Lee Ji-yeom’s mouth as he read the phrase.
“ah!”
How was it possible to approach fortune telling in this way?
Lee Ji-yeom said as if he was surprised.
“You are truly amazing. I had never thought of turning the Yeolyangjigi directly from Gyeyou to Yangjiang. However, if this is done, I think I will be able to control the energy entering the 9th star. “I can’t believe you came up with this so easily.”
-Easy to devise. I realized it only after I died and my ghost eyes opened.
The spirit grunted in an angry voice, as if it had not resolved itself yet.
In the first place, deep-gong, like Dae-yeom-gong, which can directly handle the heat energy, was so risky that it could only be completed through numerous trials and errors and sacrifices.
In a way, from Lee Ji-yeom’s perspective, it was like meeting Giyeon.
Lee Ji-yeom, who was reading the sentence like that, frowned.
Then I spoke carefully to Mok Gyeong-un.
“Master Haonde. “It seems like you didn’t write down all the details.”
“that’s right.”
“yes?”
“I wrote only half of it.”
Lee Ji-yeom was about to ask why he did that, but then closed his mouth.
As I looked at Mok Gyeong-un’s smiling face, I could guess what his intention was.
“……Did you do that on purpose?”
“that’s right.”
“Why are you like that…..”
“Even though we have completed the structure, we need to be careful. “I’m afraid the owner of the grain is in too much of a hurry and will get angry again.”
“ah……”
Lee Ji-yeom let out a small exclamation at Mok Gyeong-un’s words.
Was it because he was concerned that trying to learn the completed gugyeol too hard would lead to a situation where he would be eaten by the yeolyangjigi?
I guess I misunderstood.
He thought that maybe it was because he didn’t fully trust himself yet.
Cheongnyeong snorted.
-Even though they took the oath of loyalty, I still can’t quite believe it.
She knew Mokgyun well.
I was sure that the reason I didn’t tell him everything was because I was worried about Lee Ji-yeom.
‘yes. answer.’
Of course that was correct.
Mok Gyeong-un did not completely trust Lee Ji-yeom even though he had sworn loyalty.
Therefore, only moderate amounts of food were provided.
-Be moderately suspicious. I can assure you. You can trust Iga.
Hearing her words, Mok Kyung-un smiled slightly.
Her trust in her old loyalists was her freedom.
But it wasn’t him.
I planned to remain somewhat cautious until I was certain.
At that time, Lee Ji-yeom opened his mouth, putting a piece of paper with the phrase written on it in his arms.
“Haonde. My lord. “If it’s not rude, would you mind if I ask you what happened at Hoeryeong Daejeon that day a hundred years ago?”
‘Hoeryeong Daejeon?’
What is that?
Mo Gyeong-un’s eyes narrowed at his question.
I didn’t expect that Sihyeolgokju Lee Ji-yeom would suddenly ask about things about Cheongryeong that he didn’t know about.
At this, the young man spoke in a mocking voice.
-Try well. I don’t know anything else, but I will never help you or teach you anything related to Iga.
Since she had stolen Lee Ga’s loyalty, she had no intention of revealing information.
It was a call to make it worth the trouble.
‘Hoeryeong Daejeon.’
It was a memory she could never forget.
That memory came to fruition and became a vengeful spirit.
In the first place, I didn’t plan on telling this guy right away, but I thought it was a good idea.
It was at that time.
Mok Kyung-un opened his mouth casually.
“Do you want to know that?”
Cheongnyeong was shocked by this.
What do you want to know when you don’t know anything?
But Lee Ji-yeom answered.
“That’s right. “No, my grandfather believed in his lord to the end, but due to the incident of that day, he was demoted from king to Gokju, and his family was expelled from the castle and has been imprisoned here in Sihyeolgok for three generations.”
‘Ahhh.’
Cheongnyeong felt bitter at Lee Ji-yeom’s words.
The Li family is the family that founded the Cheonjihoe, but they humiliate us like this.
How far did he intend to humiliate himself and ruin the Heaven and Earth Association?
As expected, I could never forgive that guy.
At that time, Mok Kyung-un spoke.
“How does this Gokju know what happened in Hoeryeong Daejeon that day? “I wonder how you or the Society knows.”
‘ha!?’
Cheongryeong clicked his tongue in response to Mok Gyeong-un’s question.
Anyway, this guy finds a breakthrough in some way.
On the contrary, I did not expect that the question would be asked this way.
Or is it because he doesn’t find it difficult to lie at all in the first place, so he can make things up in some way?
‘You really are a sentient being…’
It seemed absurd, but Gokju Lee Ji-yeom spoke carefully.
“……I’m sorry, but can I just tell you this?”
“are you okay. “You have to tell it the truth so I can tell you what happened in Hoeryeong Daejeon that day.”
Mok Kyung-un said he didn’t care.
At the same time, he glanced at the wooden doll in his arms and twitched his lips.
‘Why don’t you just give me advice?’
Then there would not have been any induction like this.
However, does this allow us to find out what Cheongryeong is related to the Heaven and Earth Association and what secrets it holds?
