Episode 89
The Great Method of Closing the Vessels
In front of the Nanhyeopjeon, five Jeongpunggak agents were already waiting with stern faces.
With Yoo Su-min lying there covered in blood.
“Tangyak! Bring me the tangyak first!”
“Place the needles in this order, but be sure to-”
Although several of the party’s most prominent members were trying to treat him, Yoo Su-min showed no signs of getting up.
Even his complexion was pale, and a cold air was emanating from his hands and feet, which had turned particularly pale.
The Shiksim Bingdok is a Shiksim Bingdok, and it seemed to be much more powerful than the one he had stolen from Baeksan.
“If only I had quickly protected my meridians with the Closing Technique when I was hit by the Gyeokjang, otherwise I might have been seriously injured.”
“It certainly seems that the overall military power of the North Sea Clan has increased.”
The closed vein method actually originated from the ghost method that was mainly used by assassins in the past, and was a method of artificially forcibly closing all the meridians and blood vessels through which energy flows, including the dantian.
It is very effective in preventing poison or toxins from penetrating the meridians, but it has the side effect of drastically lowering the metabolic rate and causing loss of consciousness.
Therefore, the closed vein method could never be lifted without the help of an outsider.
It would not have been easy to cast it unless I was in a dangerous situation or had a deep relationship of trust, but Yoo Su-min trusted me and performed this closed-circle technique.
Even though I didn’t have a very deep relationship with her.
“How can time or frequency be important when communicating? Human relationships can become stronger than those between blood brothers with just one brief encounter.”
“Shouldn’t the young sect leader repay you with something that big?”
I nodded quietly.
Even for an excellent doctor, the diagnosis of lung vein disease was not easy.
I thought that I should help release it quickly because leaving it like that was not good for my body.
Fortunately, the Shixin Bingdok was only circling outside the meridians and had not yet penetrated into the body, so detoxification did not seem difficult.
“Are you here?”
At that time, Danghosan approached with a tired face.
“I came here after hearing that they were on the move.”
“I thought we would start moving in earnest after the Lord arrived, but I was caught off guard.”
Although Dang Ho-san already knew all about Gui Je-gal and I’s plans, we only exchanged formalities.
It was because there were many eyes watching around.
This plan would never be known to the outside world.
“I heard that there were people who were aiming for a war with Nanhyeop.”
“There’s nothing to worry about there. It’s gone now.”
“I’m glad you’re safe.”
Even if you rush in like a dog, using things like Shiksim Bingdok and Bingbaek Dobeop, it would be difficult to deal with even a handful of Cheondoksu from Danghosan.
“Can I take Lady Yoo’s pulse?”
The assemblymen’s gaze naturally turned to Dang Ho-san.
Danghosan nodded.
“Go ahead. But don’t force yourself to do it.”
“I already have a resistance to ice poison, so I think this might be of some help, even if it’s not enough.”
Only then did the lawmakers let out a small exclamation of “Ah!”
I remembered my previous experience of defeating the North Wind Demon and swallowing the Ice Poison instead.
I grabbed Yoo Su-min’s left wrist and breathed in the Black Dragon Energy.
“It seems that the leader’s guess is correct.”
“The poison is much more severe than the poison of the North Wind Ghost Baeksan.”
“It might not be easy to decipher… Is that okay?”
‘No. It actually got easier.’
“?”
“What do you mean-“
‘Have you forgotten what the Black Dragon’s origins are?’
“ah!”
Black Dragon Qigong is a method born from the sound of pure yin energy gathered together.
The stronger the toxicity of Shiksim Bingdok, the stronger its yin energy is, which means it can be great prey for the Black Dragon!
Paaaaah… … !
The black dragon sprinted along the meridian in one breath.
The cold and negative energy was sucked in all at once.
Of course, a sudden thaw could have strained the already weakened body tissues, so he tried to thaw slowly, but instead, he opened a path for Yoo Soo-jin’s internal energy to flow slowly.
The method she learned is called Guanyin Geumjeongshin Gong (觀音金頂神功).
Since it is a Buddhist martial art that aims to resemble the energy of Avalokitesvara Bodhisattva who saves all living beings with compassion, if you pave the way well, even closed veins can be opened at a rapid pace.
After the Black Dragon Flag made several laps like that, the quantity had increased significantly compared to before.
At the same time, I could be sure.
‘As expected. It’s just as I thought. That Gu Min-chae guy, he definitely still has it.’
I can’t believe I’m still carrying around this good thing without fully digesting it.
The moment he forced himself to swallow the laughter that was about to burst out, Yoo Su-min’s danjeon opened wide and his internal energy spread out in all directions.
Yoo Su-min opened his eyes.
Flash!
Geumgwang (金光) separated his son-in-law.
“Are you coming to your senses now?”
“…You really came to help me.”
“Didn’t I tell you? I’ll be there soon.”

A faint smile appeared on Yoo Su-min’s lips.
It was a mischievous smile, like a successful conspiracy together.
“her!”
“It really is a cure… … !”
But the way the two of us looked to the members of the National Assembly seemed like I had treated them properly.
There was no need to correct their misunderstanding, so after giving the members some prescriptions, he stared into the eyes of Yoo Su-min, who seemed to have regained some of his composure.
“Did you find those two?”
“Currently, the warriors of this branch are secretly pursuing those who kidnapped my sister and Sima Sojeo, so you will soon hear good news.”
I got up from my seat and looked back at Dang-gon.
“Musaboo, have you locked up all the disciples of the Geumgeommun in prison?”
“Yes.”
“I’m going to cross over now, so prepare for interrogation.”
“Your name.”
Danggon immediately left the Blue House with his agents.
I was about to head straight to Hyung-ok, but Yoo Su-min suddenly jumped up and blocked my way.
“Please take me too.”
“Young Lady, you have just recently awakened from the Great Law. There may still be residual toxicity from the Ice Poison. Don’t push yourself too hard-”
“My personality can’t allow me to just wait for those two to come back.”
“… … .”
“Please take me too. I won’t be a bother.”
“… … .”
“Please.”
I scratched my cheek as if I was embarrassed, then looked at Danghosan as if asking for help.
However, Dang Ho-san just stood there with his arms crossed, snorting slightly and watching, showing no intention of intervening.
I guess you’re saying I should clean up my own shit.
…shit.
I sighed lightly.
“If you put it that way… I understand.”
I said to the agent next to me.
“Do you have any Zeng Hwal Dan left at the pharmacy? Bring it.”
“But the small family, that’s…! Oh, I understand.”
After sending the agent, I spoke to Yoo Soo-min again.
“Zengxingdan is a poison that slightly paralyzes the nervous system, forcing you to forget fatigue. In exchange for being able to move freely for half a day or so, you may feel fatigued for several days or your judgment may become clouded as if your head is foggy. Is that okay with you?”
“It’s okay. Thank you.”
Yoo Su-min laughed brightly.
I ended up laughing bitterly.
It occurred to me that perhaps the hearts of the three women who helped me were much stronger than I had thought.
“Okay. Follow me.”
I took the lead, flying the long cannon.
Yoo Su-min followed with heavy steps.
Her face had become frozen like an unseen demon.

Dark underground.
The Geumgeommun disciples who were sent to the prison trembled.
“This, this place-”
“Why on earth are you doing this to us? You should at least give us a proper explanation!”
“The main text is that I came to the Guryong branch with good intentions, but if you treat me like this-”
Their faces, all of which were forcibly tied to the interrogation chair, were equally tired.
There were some who protested, but the moment they met Jeongpunggak’s cold gaze, they became silent.
Hyuk-woo-gi was gulping like a rat and was constantly observing the surrounding atmosphere.
I approached the guy with quiet steps.
“Huh, gasp!”
Hyukwooki’s face turned pale.
I whispered in a cold voice.
“Where are you?”
Gu Min-chae told me to find the place myself, even though she didn’t give me an address.
That means he left the guy who knows his address in the branch office.
Then is there anyone else besides this guy?
Of course, Ilno and several Jeongpunggak agents were chasing after Guminchae, but it was still easier to plan an operation if they knew the specific location.
“Wh, what-”
“Where are you?”
“Wh, you have to tell me what you’re talking about-”
I kicked his shin with all my might.
The sound of bones breaking was horrible.
The boy rolled around on the floor in a horrible manner as the chair legs broke as well.
“Ahhhhh! Aahhhh!”
“Rumor has it!”
“What the hell is this! You have to tell me in the text why you have such a bad feeling-”
“Don’t ask any more. Where are you?”
I kicked Hyuk-woo-gi’s head with my foot as he rolled around on the ground, looking horrified, holding onto his broken leg.
Because of that, one of my eyes was covered.
The other eye of Hyukwoogi, which was not covered by his feet, shook without mercy.
“That, that…!”
Kwaaaaak!
“Ahhh! My head! My head!”
“Should I really break it?”
My feet pushed harder.
The back of his head cracked open and blood gushed out.
“No! I will tell you! I will tell you… please!”
But I didn’t let up on my feet.
Instead, I applied more pressure slowly.
As if he was threatening that if he didn’t speak quickly, his head would really burst.
“Father, the northwestern outskirts! There is a manor on the outskirts of Guryong County! A manor that we purchased a long time ago to manage the surrounding lands from the main gate…!”
“… … .”
“That author! That author came first!! Right before the delegation left for Gu-Gu-Ryong-Hyeon! He dug up, dug up all sorts of things about Prince Yun-Hui-”
“… … .”
“And after hearing my circumstances, he promised to let me hold Miss Sima and Miss Yu, and again, again-”
As he listened, Yoo Su-min’s eyes became cold and sank.
Surely you never thought that, following Do Seong-hyeon, you would commit such an absurd disaster because you couldn’t hide your lust.
“He, he taught me magic. He said that with this, I could beat Confucius-”
There was nothing more to hear.
I kicked the guy in the head hard and knocked him out.
I looked back towards Geumgeommun.
They all had shocked faces.
It was because of the word magic.
“Do you now clearly understand the crimes you have committed?”
“… … .”
“… … .”
“So don’t whine anymore. It’s so noisy I’m dying.”
The Golden Sword disciples all kept their mouths shut.
“Lock this kid up in the deepest prison. I’ll interrogate him later.”
“Your name.”
“And Musabu.”
“Yes, the owner of Sobun-ga.”
Danggon stepped forward and bowed his head.
“Gather just ten of the best. Let’s move immediately.”
“Will that do?”
“You heard? They’re after me. If we rush in a bunch, it’ll only endanger my sister and Lady Sima.”
“All right.”
“Make sure to pick people who can quickly assess the situation. You never know what kind of trap they might have set. And make sure to strictly enforce internal controls.”
I turned my body the other way.
“Then let’s go.”
