Twenty-Four Poisons 2
The quantum equation that becomes quantum(?) reminded me of something from my past life.
The process was to offer a sacrifice at the ancestral shrine and share a drink, but the fact that the drink was mixed with each other’s blood made me vaguely recall something from my past life.
“Now, have a drink.”
“Okay, Father.”
A glass of red wine in a glass passed to me.
He carefully poured the drink he had received into his mouth.
-Gulp.
Immediately after, the taste of cheap alcohol, felt for the first time since my previous life, and the pungent smell felt in between.
As I tasted the pungent taste of blood in my mouth, the thought that had been lingering in my mind came back clearly.
‘Yeah! This is like a scene from some gangster movie.’
It felt very similar to the gang initiation ceremony that I had only seen in movies in my past life.
But I think that’s also a way of becoming a family, and this is also a way of becoming a family, so I guess I can understand? Because the ending is the same.
After sharing a drink with each other, the adoption(?) into the Namman Beast Palace, which was simpler than expected, was completed.
In other words, I had been completely sold to the Namman Beast Palace.
“Now, Xiaolong, you are from our Nanman Beast Palace and my son. Hahahaha! And since we in the Beast Palace don’t call you by your last name, you can now just use the name Xiaolong instead of Wei Xiaolong. Dragons are beasts, so it’s okay. A small dragon… Good. Please become a big dragon like us.”
“Okay. Okay, Father.”
My father, who pats my back with his big hand as big as my head and gives me words of encouragement.
As I awkwardly smiled and answered, my new sister, Seolpyo, caressed my cheek and spoke.
“So-ryong, I’m Seol-pyo’s sister, so you can call me Seol-sister, okay? Let’s be good friends. Oh, you’re so cute.”
“Yes, Seo, Sister Seol. Please take good care of me.”
When we were just friends, Seol had the image of a fierce cat-like older sister with healthy skin, but after she became a family member, she became a gentle cat-like personality.
I laughed awkwardly again at the sight of the two new family members looking so happy.
‘I’ve adopted many animals in my past lives, but this is my first time being adopted, so it feels very strange.’
My first adoption in my past or future life.
I’ve always welcomed children I’ve adopted, but this was the first time in my life that I’ve been welcomed like this, so it was incredibly awkward.
Was this what the children I adopted in my past life felt like?
‘But you don’t feel bad?’
It was a very strange feeling to see the adoptees’ satisfied faces, but on the other hand, I felt good.
Because I knew why the people of Beast Palace were so satisfied.
When I saw it at the Beast Palace, it was clear that it was an S-class entity, so that’s why it likes it so much.
‘I’m definitely S-class. Of course.’
I ate the royal jelly of the Golden Phoenix King a while ago, and the coloring(?) is great. It’s not an adult yet, so it’s fun to raise it. Even I can’t find an S-class individual like this anywhere.
After the brief adoption ceremony and welcome, a small banquet was held with the family members, and it was not until late in the evening that the banquet ended.
“This is Soryong’s residence. How do you like it?”
“Yes, it is very fancy.”
After the banquet, we were led to a very splendid room, different from the simple atmosphere of the party.
It was a very cozy-looking room, with a fluffy-looking bed covered in leopard skin and a wolf skin rug and things like that.
A penthouse-like abode in the middle of the jungle?
And that was my place in the Beast Palace.
“I’ll be staying mostly at the party, but you’ll need a place to stay when you come here.”
“Thank you, Sister Seol.”
“Oh my, isn’t it true that family members say thank you to each other?”
“Oh, is that so?”
It was a time when I smiled awkwardly because I still didn’t feel like we were a family.
“And, wait a moment, I’ll get ready and bring you?”
“Ready? Take it with you?”
‘What? What are you preparing? What are you bringing?’
Sister Seol, you brought something out of nowhere.
As I blinked, not knowing what was going on, my older sister suddenly disappeared, and when I was about to change into comfortable clothes and lie down on the bed, my older sister Seol entered the room dragging Hwa-eun.
The sight of Hwa-eun, wearing something like thin pajamas, with her face somehow flushed red, and Seol-nu, who seemed excited about something.
“Why two of you?”
When I asked a question in surprise at the two people who had appeared out of nowhere, something unbelievable suddenly burst out of Seol’s mouth.
“Now that we’re a family, let’s talk and sleep together!”
“Are you sure it’s the three of us!?”
“Yeah, I’m always alone, so I really wanted to try it when I had a younger sibling. Okay?”
When I asked back in surprise, Seol’s sister asked with an expression as if asking what the problem was.
I understand why you came, but when I looked at Hwa-eun with an expression asking why you came, Hwa-eun answered with her neck turning red.
“Hey, at the Beast Palace, my fiancée was originally supposed to sleep together···.”
‘No, that’s not a good custom···. No···.’
From what I’ve heard, it seems like Hwa-eun and I are supposed to sleep together, but Seol-noo is asking us to sleep together.
In other words, if I reject Sister Seol’s offer, Hwa-eun and I will have to sleep alone.
[Just say it’s okay. I think it’ll be better than the two of us sleeping together.]
As expected, a trembling sound came to my ears, and when I looked at Hwa-eun’s face, Hwa-eun was sending me a look that seemed to be asking for my permission.
It seems like it would be really awkward if the two of us were left alone.
He asked his sister Seol in a cautious voice.
“Should I go and lie down in the middle?”
“then!”

I wondered if I’d be able to sleep tonight.
***
Sister Seol, why are you so curious about so many things?
It was while I was eating dumplings with wide eyes at the breakfast table.
“Ryong-ah, I’ll tell you what you were most curious about after you eat breakfast, so follow me right after you eat. Okay?”
“If there’s something you were curious about?”
“The Five Kings.”
“aha.”
After breakfast, my older sister looked into the reason why Cho and I have telepathy.
After I nodded and finished eating, my older sister dragged me down the cliff behind the Beast Palace.
My adoptive father, who had finished eating with us, arrived first and was waiting. He sat me down and suggested that we first examine the internal energy method.
“I have confirmed that the group of Beast Palace’s Beast Heart Gong is in the Odok Gwiwon Shingong, so the Mandok Shingun elder has permitted me to examine your martial arts. Would you like to try the Great Circulation?”
“All right.”
The adoptive father said that since the greatest secret of the Nanman Beast Palace is hidden in the Odokguiwon Shingong, let’s first check how much of it is included.
As I sat down as instructed and began the Great Circulation, my adoptive father placed his hand on my back and observed the order in which my internal energy flowed.
When the Great Jucheon was over, the adoptive father nodded and said.
“It must have been hidden like this that they couldn’t confirm it at the time. It is an imitation of the Beast’s Heart, but it is far inferior to the original Beast’s Heart. There is no need to discuss this with the Mandokshin Army separately.”
A somewhat reassuring expression.
I cautiously asked what on earth the beast’s heart was.
“What on earth is the Wild Beast Heart Skill?”
Then, Sister Seol stepped forward and explained.
“This sister will explain it to you. The Beast Heart Technique is an internal energy technique that only the direct lineage of our Southern Manchu Palace can master. It is an internal energy technique that has been passed down as a technique that allows one to grow together with beasts.”
A mind that is tempted by the idea that one can grow up with beasts.
I quickly asked back.
“Can you grow up with beasts?”
“Yes, the Beast Heart has a unique ability. That is, it can sense the hearts of beasts and give them orders. It can be said to be an internal energy technique that allows you to become one with beasts and fight.
“Being able to grow up with beasts means being able to fight as one with them. Something like that.”
‘So, being able to grow together means how well you can handle animals?’
“You can feel the heart and give orders?”
I can give orders, but I can’t feel the mind of the person in question.
When I tilted my head, Seol Nui smiled and said.
“Yeah. Just wait a minute.”
-Dugeon.
When my older sister told me to wait, I waited for a moment, and ten wolves came running from afar, kicking up dust.
The wolves who arrived at the cliff saw me and bared their teeth.
-Growl.
Then, Seol’s sister shouted loudly.
“Oh my! Soryong is my little brother now, so you shouldn’t be so cautious!”
-Kkiiing.
At Seol’s scolding, the boys immediately laid their ears down, tucked their tails, and acted cute as if they had done something wrong to their older sister.
“Ferocious Wolf Ring Formation!”
After a while, when the older sister gave the order to attack, the wolves suddenly started to rush towards the adoptive father fiercely.
-Wow!
An attack in which ten of them link up and rotate like windmills.
The sight of two rushing at the same time, or four rushing from four directions, was incredibly sharp.
Even from my perspective as a beginner in martial arts, it feels like even a master wouldn’t be able to pick up a bone.
But the wolves couldn’t even brush past the collar of their large adoptive father, and after a few clashes, the older sister gave the wolves an order.
“stop.”
Then, the wolves who had been chasing their adoptive father, gasping for breath, approached Seol’s sister and rubbed her cheeks as if asking her to praise them for a job well done.
-Kkiiing.
“Yeah, good job. Did you see that, Ryong-ah? Like this.”
“Wow! Ten at once?”
The sight of handling ten wolves at once as if they were his own limbs.
My sister responded with a proud expression to my compliment.
“If you can master the Beast Heart, you can even summon five hundred or a thousand spirits at once. However, if you are greedy beyond your own realm, countless children’s minds will rush in and you may fall into a state of madness, so you must be very careful.”
I only have one, but you say there are five hundred, a thousand at once.
He looked at his older sister with a respectful expression and asked.
“Oh, how can I feel the hearts of my children!? And how can I give orders to my other children!?”
Then my adoptive father and older sister smiled and answered my question.
“After examining the Five Poisons and Ten Poisons, I feel like the body is burdened because it is accepting poison. So it seems that the Five Poisons and Ten Poisons are determined by one’s innate qualities, but the Beast Heart Gong was not originally created to accept poison.”
“Then what?”
He asked, delighted at the thought that he would be able to have a mental conversation with his pet poisons, separate from the poison.
But the answer I heard was a bit shocking.
“Originally, it was something like accepting blood.”
“No, you mean blood!?”
No, you talk like you care so much about animals, and then you accept their blood.
The two smile in surprise at the thought of accepting blood.
“Blood is just a drop, and of course, there are bodily fluids like saliva. That’s why you were able to accept the poison and give orders to Wukong.”
“Oh! I see!”
It is said that if you accept bodily fluids such as saliva or blood, you will be registered as a new child.
It wasn’t bad because it wouldn’t hurt as much as poison, and it was very good because it wouldn’t be a problem to fill the ten poisons if you took in the non-poisonous fluids.
First, I had to use the Odok Tech to fill the poison of the Dokgong separately, but when I heard that Wukong could register all three, I happily asked him to do so.
It seemed like the Wukongs were not playing in separate slots, but playing as a stack.
‘Wukong is crazy about three steaks.’
“Please give me the beast heart!”
“Of course! He is my son, so of course I must teach him. Sit down, so I can properly teach you my Beast Heart Technique!”
“Thank you, Father! Thank you, Sister!”
The awkward words ‘father’ and ‘sister’ just came out as if they were a burst of dialect.
Immediately, my Odokguiwonsingong began to be modified, and I felt a few more acupuncture points being used towards my head, and then I began to feel the mind of the grass wrapped around my waist.
‘This is!’
Cho’s heart is filled with endless love and affection for his father.
Even now, I felt a strong feeling in my heart as I thought about whether I should ask my father about the big man who was putting his hand on his head.
‘Ugh! What the hell!’
And when the imperfect beast heart skill hidden within the Odokguiwonsingong became perfect, the adoptive father said:
“Hand all the Wukongs to me for a moment and lie down.”
“I could ask···.”
“Don’t worry. If I try to bite you, I’ll put on a protective aura. Then, you can just tell me not to bite, right?”
The adoptive father gave the Wukongs and told them to lie down.
He’s an expert at handling animals, so it’ll be okay, but he’s never handed the kids over to anyone other than my older sister and I.
After telling Cho in his heart not to let his younger siblings ask their grandfather, he handed the Wukongs over to their adoptive father.
“Kids, go to Grandpa.”
“Is this what you mean?”
And then I was just lying on the floor.
“Now, just open your mouth.”
“What should I wear?”
Then darkness covers the face.
My adoptive father looked down at me, held the Gokus above my head, and spoke.
“Now, quickly spit on your master, not poison, but a drop of saliva. You, Little Dragon, use the Beast Heart and feel the energy mixed in the saliva of the Wukongs entering your body.”
So the reason he told me to lie down was because he wanted to make the spit of the Wukongs fall into my mouth, so I got up in surprise and asked.
“No, ah, Father, just wait a minute.”
“Why are you doing that?”
“Is it just me who finds this weird?”
“?”
Then the two people tilted their heads.
My father and sister Seol didn’t seem to notice anything unusual.
