How to Live as a Magician in the Martial Arts World Episode 74
Chapter 17 Sacheondangga (6)
How dare you inflict such humiliation on yourself.
The pride of the lofty Tang dynasty was hurt.
However, it couldn’t be left like this. The pattern that Jegal Hyunmong had drawn on the secret weapon was similar to the pattern drawn on the fan.
A fierce civil war was waged between pride and thirst for knowledge.
The victor was the thirst for knowledge.
“The old man was wrong earlier, so show him… … .”
‘It’s scary.’
It was truly thrilling to see the craftsman, who had been the epitome of nobility just a moment ago, forcefully smiling with bloodshot eyes.
Jegal Xuanmong took out his robe again and unfolded it.
“Hmm… … Hmm! It’s definitely a similar pattern!”
Unlike before, the Tang army was staring intently at various parts of the drawing.
Looking at that ambitious appearance, Jegal Hyunmong also felt something.
“Is it okay if I edit it a little more?”
“correction?”
“Yes, after looking at the memorization of the Tang song just now, I felt it was a bit lacking… … I’d like to add one more function. Is that okay?”
“……anything?”
Jegal Hyunmong nodded and took something out of his bosom.
“Actually, I happened to get the inner workings of the Inmyeonjiju a while ago… … .”
“Hey, how much of what are you carrying in your arms?”
The Tang army was so dumbfounded that they cut him off mid-sentence.
The blueprint of the folding fan, the hibernating black iron dragon, and now the inner workings of the human-faced pillar.
Aren’t the things you take out of your arms all things that go beyond your imagination?
“Anyway, what are you going to do with that?”
“Looking at the inside, it seems like it has something to do with poison. I’m going to try making a poison-avoiding pearl with this.”
Poisonous liquor.
It is also a legendary item that is said to block poison simply by holding it.
No, at that point, it is not a simple object, but rather a realm of the Dharma treasure used by the immortals of the Fengshen Hall.
‘Is that possible?’
Danghwajun saw Jegal Hyeonmong.
‘Surely you’re not asking me to figure out how to make it in Dangga-chang?’
Since there was such a history, I couldn’t help but be even more suspicious.
Even the singers of Sacheondangga sometimes came up with ridiculous ideas and made absurd demands… …!
Meanwhile, Jegal Hyunmong added a new design to the blank space on the drawing and said:
“If you put a decoration that can be inserted into this part and extend the pattern containing the magic to the handle, it seems like it could function as a poison extinguisher. What do you think?”
“Hmm. If the function of the poisonous spirit is actually confirmed by the structure you wanted, it seems that it is possible to put in an organ that uses the poison accumulated in the poisonous spirit to eject it in reverse. What do you think?”
“That’s great!”
After much discussion, the Tang army took the blueprints as if they were half-robbing them.
With the promise that he would deliver the perfect item as per the drawing before the end of the series.
And on the way back, Dang Cheong-ah said something to Dang Hwa-ryeong that she didn’t understand.
“Was it like this when you first met?”
Dang Hwa-ryeong nodded silently.
* * *
Dang Hwa-gun had many questions for Jegal Hyeon-mong.
What was most curious of all was the same technique that Jegal Hyunmong had drawn on his secret document.
“So, what does this mean? Why can I achieve this effect just by drawing a line? Why, why, why?”
“haha…….”
It was a little scary.
And he didn’t get tired.
It was as if he was a monster born to ask questions.
In the end, Jegal Xuanmong was barely able to escape after asking for help from Dang Qing’er and Dang Hwaryeong and even bringing up Ma Jin-gwang.
Just as I was taking a breather, Dang Cheong-ah started clinging to me.
‘Master Zhuge Xuanmong. Are you by any chance interested in memorization?’
Dang Cheong-ah was more talkative than I thought.
The problem was that the topic was something that only he was interested in.
On the way back, I rode a carriage, and as if I had a mission to somehow cram in information during the short time I was riding the carriage, I was busy constantly preaching about the benefits of memorization.
There was only one conclusion.
‘Can sorcery be applied to dark techniques as well?’
I was afraid that if I said no, he wouldn’t let me go until he said yes, so I opened the door to opportunity and said I would try, and only then was I able to let him go.
‘I really need to rest tomorrow.’
Something came up here and there and I’m tired.
I was thinking about just resting and doing nothing for a day or so tomorrow.
But the next morning, as soon as Dang-gon came,
“You, now is not the time for this!”
“… …Why are you doing that?”
“Your public opinion is very bad in Sacheondangga.”
‘I don’t think so.’

After hearing the story, Jegal Hyunmong’s expression became serious.
I had some thoughts after seeing the Daeryongpyo-guk incident the other day, but isn’t it worse than I thought?
“But can you tell me that?”
“Huh, it doesn’t matter. What happened the other day was something that wasn’t politically correct. Is it even possible to be hostile just because of prejudice or vested interests?”
Danggon indeed had the demeanor of a great swordsman.
Jegal Hyunmong looked at Danggon with respectful eyes.
“So, is there any solution?”
“Why are you asking me that?”
“yes?”
“Why should I come up with a plan when the Second Coming is right before my eyes? Besides, isn’t it your job?”
The look of respect in Jegal Hyeonmong’s eyes quickly faded.
But if you exclude the mention of the second coming of the second son, it wasn’t really a wrong statement. Jegal Hyunmong scratched his head for a moment.
The problem was that there was nothing for Jegal Hyunmong to do in Sacheondangga.
“When I saw them yesterday, they all seemed quite hostile. It seemed like they would be wary just from me approaching them.”
Especially, Amipa would panic at the mere sight of me and grab the handle of his sword, so it seemed like he would be torn in two before the misunderstanding could be resolved.
“Well, how about we first attack the girls of Sacheondangga? If I’m here, the girls won’t be so cruel. And didn’t you say you wanted to ask about the breeding of poisonous creatures in Sacheondangga?”
“That’s true too.”
The seeds of poisons that galsalyang possesses.
To find out how to awaken and raise them, it is best to ask the experts among experts, the Sichuan Dangga.
Jegal Hyunmong got up from his seat and followed Danggon’s guidance to the Dark Poison Hall.
“This is where the Tang family studies poison.”
“It’s huge. It might be similar to a Dangakhang.”
Danggon gave an explanation as he passed by, and said that it covered various fields related to poison on a scale that was understandable.
Then suddenly there was a commotion, and people dressed in green started to rush out from all over the place and run somewhere.
“… … What’s going on?”
“Hmm! It looks like the poisons have escaped. I’m not going to misunderstand, but this doesn’t happen often.”
‘It looks familiar for something like that.’
Fortunately, it was quickly put out.
Danggon shrugged.
“I guess it’s resolved. Let’s go.”
‘I don’t really want to go.’
Going into a place where poison was rampant.
Although he didn’t feel like it, Jegal Hyunmong nodded and followed Danggon. Although he was a little reluctant, he had a countermeasure.
First is Danggon.
The second is the first line wrapped around his neck.
Finally, there was the inner workings of the human-faced person.
Although he said he would make a poisonous liquor, Jegal Hyunmong also needed to think about what to do, so he carried it around and thought about it here and there.
It’s not an item that’s been worked on, but it basically has resistance to poison, so just carrying it around will be quite helpful.
‘By the way, it really is very poisonous.’
I stuck out my tongue inwardly.
It was as if he had brought with him all the poisons that existed in the world.
It was quite impressive to see the singers of the Tang family talking to each other using their own specialized language as they walked through the poisonous waters.
“By the way, who are you going to meet?”
“You said that you defeated the Mandokmun’s Malye and obtained the poisonous insect, but you are having a hard time because you don’t know how to handle it.”
“Yes, it was.”
“And the poisonous worm is always thirsty for new poisons. If you show it to him and ask for advice, he will naturally interact with you and gain your favor.”
“… … .”
Jegal Hyunmong didn’t really want to buy favors like that.
Because if he added ‘I found out that you really like poison’ to his reputation now, it would only make him more sinister, not brighter or more positive.
But now was the time to do something like that.
“Oh, there’s one thing to be careful of. From now on, you shouldn’t show off too much to the people you meet.”
“If that’s the case, then I guess there’s no need to worry.”
“… … I think I need to worry a little.”
“Why? Since I met the Great Swordsman, have I ever said or done anything arrogant?”
Danggon thought deeply about Zhuge Xuanmong’s words.
‘Now that I think about it, there isn’t any.’
Rather, didn’t he just open his mouth and whine about how he had no confidence and how he could do something like that?
But in his own perception, he only appeared to be showing off, which was truly a talent.
“Anyway, be careful. You’re a high-ranking official, so you naturally have a knack for showing off.”
Jegal Xuanmong had no choice but to contemplate whether he should take Danggon’s words as praise or as criticism.
* * *
“Your Majesty, you’re here. I’ve been waiting for you.”
“Oh, yeah. Dang Joong-hyuk. How have you been?”
“I’ve always been doing well. But what about that person next to me?”
A young man was waiting for the group.
He was a young man with a body as thin as a tree, and the dark circles under his eyes made him look somewhat sickly.
“My name is Jegal Hyeonmong. Nice to meet you.”
“This is Jegal Hyunmong… … I hope you understand that I am not well-informed and do not know.”
The young man clasped his hands together as if he was sorry.
‘Ah, he’s a good person.’
These days, whenever I meet someone, they always start talking about the second coming of the Emperor. It had been a long time since Jegal Hyunmong had felt tired.
But he doesn’t know me at all, and he’s polite and friendly.
In an instant, Jegal Hyunmong’s heart was filled with affection for the sickly young man before his eyes.
After exchanging brief greetings, Dang Jung-hyuk asked.
“You said you wanted my advice on poisons?”
“Yes, I recently acquired some poisonous plants and was wondering if I could possibly grow them.”
“I don’t recommend it.”
Dang Jung-hyuk shook his head weakly.
“No matter how small a poison is, it is still poison. Even within that cute appearance, there is an evil nature that cannot be hidden.”
‘Cute appearance?’
“The same goes for poison. The poison of poison is very attractive and ecstatic. When bitten, the poison spreads and makes your head spin, and your nerves are confused, making you feel a mysterious sensation that you can never get in ordinary life. However, it is dangerous for beginners to always keep poison close by and want to experience poison.”
Zhuge Xuanmong spoke to Danggon with his eyes.
‘Are there only people like this in Sacheondangga?’
