Episode 24. heo gongrok (3)
Just, just, just… … .
Main room of Daewonro in the evening.
Zigong had a one-man game as usual today.
The sound of the go stone that continued for a while disappeared with the appearance of a long shadow.
“I have checked as you commanded.”
“Namu Amitabha Avalokiteshvara Bodhisattva.”
With displeasure, Zigong stood up from his seat.
“Yes, what was Gija Chun doing now?”
“I confirmed to Ki-Ja Chun that about a dozen of Myeong-suk were captured.”
“Heh heh, ten or so people?”
“Yes, somehow the permanent downfall of the Jegal Lord… … I’m trying to make a move to block the worst case, but it’s a number that’s not even worth half a penny.”
Master Zigong slowly turned the rosary and brushed the side of the man in the city. And then a word tossed.
“Which one is the requiem?”
“The soul of the soul has interviewed all the lords of the eight great dang lords, except for the lord of the Heavenly Mu-Eolma, and it is said that the desired results have been achieved.”
“Achieved results?”
“It seems that two or three of the eight heads of the headland agreed to prevent the complete fall of the leader. also… … .”
Sabak, Zigong’s lightly stopped steps. At the same time, white salt and white rice were fine, but wriggling.
“also?”
“It is said that a large number of elders from the small and medium-sized faction, including Seon Seon-hyangmun, are holding a demonstration to save the leader near Daeungjeon.”
“Heh heh heh.”
Ambassador Zigong approached the window as if sliding slowly.
It was dark outside because there was no moon.
The empty laughter that had been going on for a while soon stopped. I stopped suddenly as if there was such a thing as laughter.
“Do Danju.”
“Yes, Ambassador. Please ask.”
“What do you think?”
“What are you talking about?”
Zigong gently stroked the white rice and stared out the dark window.
“What would it be desirable for Nonap to do with the leader?”
The city man knelt to one side. For that reason, the swords slung horizontally behind his shoulders rattled. After the noise stopped, he sighed.
“No matter how desperately they try, the number of people and forces gathered now will not be enough. I believe there is no difficulty in overthrowing the leader.”
“You think that’s enough.”
“… … .”
Zigong shook his head.
“There is no lack of justification for overthrowing the leader. However… … It’s not enough, it’s not enough.”
Instead of light, darkness shines through the window. As a result, Zigong’s shadow became thicker and longer in the room.
“Do you know what we call those who enjoy delusions that have no possibility of realization?”
“I know you are a dreamer.”
“I know you well. However, you don’t seem to know much about the danger.”
The town man raised his head. The corners of Zigong’s eyes, gently curved down, naturally entered his eyes.
“The most dangerous thing in this world is a delusional dream. Even more dangerous is a person who dreams an evil dream that has no possibility of realizing it.”
Delusions, false dreams… … .
The city man could easily guess that the target of the two was the Jegal Chong.
“You must know that Nonap occasionally interviews Moorim University students who are looking forward to the future.”
Of course.
He himself was one of them, and Dan Yuseong was one of them, and before that, many people must have sat across from Master Jigong at his invitation.
“Yes, Ambassador.”
“However, you wouldn’t know that. That No-nap had met officials from Oh Dae-se’s side in the past.”
“… … !?”
“Are you surprised?”
The city man’s eyes widened a little because he was completely unaware of this fact.
“Until your predecessor, that happened only occasionally. There was a time when I misjudged that it was meaningful to bring a promising talent from the side of the five generations to our side of the old file.”
Misjudgment. The meaning of the word was clear.
“Are you saying no now?”
“It changed after I interviewed someone.”
someone?
The urban man was able to easily infer the object from the previous delusion and the expression of being wicked.
“no way… … Was that the Zhuge Lord?”
“Yes.”
At the same time as he heard that answer, a subtle line was immediately overlaid in the ear of the urban man.
―No-nap wants to teach So-shi-ju how to play baduk. Where would you like to become a noodle? If you want that, he’ll sit in front of me.
Suggestions and advice that must be heard when meeting with the ambassador of Zigong.
And the question of how Zhuge Chong reacted to this was immediately resolved.
smart.
Zigong sat down in front of the board again and started playing Go.
“Jegal Chong is a delusion and a dreamer. It’s been that way since his coffin birthday.”
The name ‘Jegalchong’, not the leader, came out without hesitation from the mouth of Ambassador Jigong. It came terribly heavy to the city man.

“Didn’t Danyuseong break this plate the other day?”
“Yes, Ambassador.”
“This was the answer of the Jegal Chong to Nonap’s proposal.”
Suddenly, as Ambassador Jigong gestured lightly, a white stone scattered on the floor was sucked up to his fingertips.
In the case of Danyuseong, the other day, the white stone floated in the air was put on the broken checkerboard.
But this time… … .
Zigong gently placed the stone on the far corner of the board.
“At that time, Zhuge Chong dared to speak to Nonap.”
“… … .”
“I thought I would become a person like this Go stone.”
that number.
It was an obvious move.
That one clear number… … .
It was the rule of Zhuge Chong.
It was a move in itself that was in line with the saying that the monarch should bend his back and knees to serve.
“It was quite a shocking move to Nonab at the time. As long as the author, Zhuge Chong, was there, I decided not to covet talent from the five generations. However, I didn’t think that I had enough will to keep the move itself until the end. When he was crowned leader, he didn’t object too much.”
Zigong turned his head to look at the dark night sky again, shaking his head again and again.
“But I was mistaken. Zhuge Chong is actually a hypnotized man who believes himself to be the first servant of the Wulin. You certainly felt that at this hearing.”
It was.
When Zhuge Chong died, he died, but he was never the one who would break his convictions.
“And he is the one who will not wake up from that hypnosis for the rest of his life. That’s why he can’t help but be a hero to the small firefighters. He is truly the one who believes and will do.”
“It means that one self-proclaimed servant is as dangerous as thousands.”
“Amitabha. He’s not worth thousands, sure.”
‘How can one person value thousands of people… … Just as I was thinking, the firm tone of the Great Master Jigong descended upon the room of the Grand Elders.
“He is worth millions.”
“… … Hopefully that’s it… … .”
“No, no. If he hadn’t been there, how could Ahae, who was like Danyuseong, respond to Nonap’s proposal with such a bold response? Because of his presence, those who dream in broad daylight are increasing.”
A dream in broad daylight… … .
“Those who daydream while standing are bound to act in the end to make their dreams come true. It means that as long as he exists, a revolution from below will inevitably happen.”
Just-.
The number of Zigong resulted in one point.
“The Murim lord or the Murim lord? Nonap had been thinking about that problem for a very long time. And only recently did we come to a conclusion.”
Excellence -.
Dozens of white stones died in one stroke like autumn leaves.
“The Murim Alliance doesn’t need a leader.”
The thrill of that light reply.
The thrill spread beyond the headquarters of Daewonro and into the dark outside.
● ● ●
―Is it the Murim lord or the Murim lord? We need to decide that so we can choose the path we need to take. I’ll ask again. Do I have to be a Murim-maeng?
Even though there was only a short deadline of less than 15 days left, I… … .
I spent two full days worrying about it.
“Dad, dad, dad.”
Can you hear it now?
Next to him, the noodle holder holds out the chicken ribs he was chewing. I pushed it with my hand, but he continued pushing innocently.
“I have no appetite. men and horses.”
The boy laughs mischievously.
yeah, okay? I wish you knew… … The moment I do it, my mouth is filled with chicken ribs.
“… … Yeah yeah, I don’t have an appetite, but I’m craving chicken, craving. Hey.”
Fisik, I tousled his hair and just tore off the meat.
it’s good.
chicken is shit Even the gyeruk (鷄肋, chicken ribs) is of course delicious, even if it’s a bit dry.
Yes, it is a very simple truth.
“I want you to be simple. I am… … .”
I am… … .
Come to think of it, I’m a very simple guy.
Now all kinds of thoughts were cluttering that simple brain.
Zhuge Lieutenant, Murim, Murim Meng, [missions], friends, family, etc.
A lot of thoughts, rot.
Suddenly, the surroundings come into view.
The white background of the vast [warehouse].
I tousled the face holder’s hair once again and closed the [warehouse].
This time, the vast Cheonra Palace Field (天羅弓場) meets my eyes.
I felt myself lying in that empty backyard.
However, the worry did not go away easily.
“after-.”
After a while, he picked up his weapons, shot his bow and stabbed his spear like mad, and swung his sword and axe.
To die, to die, to die, to the death.
[You have used more than the limit! Stamina Up! HP increases by 1.]
[Health is restored by 10% (10%).]
I thought it would be nice if I collapsed from exhaustion, then my thoughts would be a bit simpler… … .
If you use your body as if you were about to die, you will recover. Damn it.
The nerves throughout the body became more tense, and the drowsiness disappeared.
All kinds of thoughts and worries that I had forgotten for a while came back like pouring in an instant as my physical strength was restored.
“shit.”
I lay down with a bowl of swearing.
It was then.
Suddenly, a shadow fell in front of my eyes. When I looked up, I saw an unexpected face looking down at me with a tilted head.
The principle of yin and yang is really scary. As soon as I saw him, I saw that I was smiling even in the midst of this.
“I also need to see people sometimes.”
“What are you talking about?”
“Why are people like that? If I see it often, it annoys me, and if I see it sometimes, I want to see it in horror.”
As she, Soso, is quite used to my jokes now, she deftly deflects them.
“Hey, are you the only one? so do i. Priest, I get annoyed when I see you often. Every time I see them, they all die.”
The ironic welcome contained in that plain greeting.
It’s only been a few months… … I feel like I’ve seen it before and I’m watching it again. That relaxed welcome came to my cheek and gently crumbled.
“Okay, how do I look this time, me?”
“It’s the same, what. What did your hand do again?”
She looked at my bandaged hand and moved closer.
“Ah, I had a bit of an argument with an old man about this.”
“I guess he was a pretty sharp-tongued old man?”
“It was. The chanting of Dingjung was terribly frightening. It was a very knife, Carl. Ah, ouch. What are you doing?”
“It’s tough.”
“You’ll have to make a hole in the palm of your hand to see if it’s gross or not… … evil!”
Soso removes my bandages, takes out the golden spear of Botaam Secret from his bosom, and carefully applies it to my hand. It seems that the refreshing effect seems to be good, but it has already been almost completely healed by the effect of the [Golden Wound].
What does it feel like though?
Hold Soso’s hand for the first time in a while… … sigh!
“It’s a weakling, anyway.”
weakling. yes, it’s weak He is a true weakling, capable of doing nothing in this precarious situation.
Our light joke-like greeting ends there.
Soso turned the bandage over and put it back on the clean side and sat down next to me. I didn’t forget to ask him to go to the pharmacy and get a new bandage.
Even if you’re not a wife, you nag.
She exhales a long, fragrant breath and looks up at the dawn sky through the open ceiling of Cheonra Palace.
“How is the weather today?”
“It doesn’t matter what it seems, how is it now?”
“You got it right every time. How do you feel this time?”
after-.
“well.”
I don’t know this time. There is no way to know.
Because there was no [distorted wristwatch] and history was so distorted that it was impossible to ‘predict the future’.
“When will you live long enough to know everything?”
“It’s normal not to know.”
“Aren’t your knees cold?”
“Oh, don’t get cold.”
“Then it will be clear.”
“If so, it would be nice.”
sincerely.
“Are all the other kids in the dormitory?”
“I don’t know, maybe. I think the god dung is somewhere else.”
It’s funny.
It is a feeling that vitality pulsates along the blood vessels of the whole body in a few words that are not special. It seems that the tangled thoughts became simple at once.
Almost an hour?
As before, we were lying on the floor in the gymnasium and chatting in small numbers.
As I lay down leisurely and watch the cherry trees lined up on both sides of the palace grounds sway, before I knew it, a series of stories from one to ten and even my worries were being passed on to Soso.
I don’t know what form my troubles were accepted by him.
“So, in your view, the Zhuge Commander is an essential being for this Murim, so we have to save it, but even if there is no good way to get it, aren’t you saying that the prospect is slim?”
It is summarized in such a short way.
My worries that have been so long… … It was really frustratingly simple.
I see It was so simple.
Soso looked up at the sky for a long time before speaking quietly.
“What do you want to do?”
“uh? A person the size of the Jegal Lord must lead the Murim League to save this Murim from fear… … .”
“No, not from the perspective of Murim or the Murim Meng.”
Her eyes, clear enough to compare with the sky, came down to me. Damn it, it’s transparent, so my face is reflected there.
There was a man who forgot ambition and passion and was just full of worries.
“you. you are the priest What kind of person is Lord Lord to you?”
The comfortable mind quickly became uncomfortable again.
“You are always like that. You always think of ‘what Moorim needs’ rather than what you ‘want to do’.”
I feel like my heart is being squeezed like a rag.
I’ve been thinking about it.
What should I do to kill the Heavenly Demon? Which way should I go? Which choice would be more advantageous?
such thoughts.
“Do what you want to do, whatever your heart is drawn to, and live.”
Soso grabbed both sides of my mouth with both hands and pulled them tight.
“Smile, little. Just like when we first met.”
I unconsciously touched my face.
when we first met?
Did I laugh then?
Actually I don’t remember very well.
But I do know one thing.
Back then, I was really simple. I didn’t have such grandiose thoughts that I would just shoulder my own success, the Murimmaeng.
I just made up my mind, made a decision, and acted according to my heart.
As far as my heart goes… … .
―Is it the Murim lord or the Murim lord? We need to decide that so we can choose the path we need to take. I’ll ask again. Do I have to be a Murim-maeng?
In response to Alabongdae’s question,
My answer is… … .
● ● ●
Stepping out of the palace grounds relieves the stuffiness a little.
The cool morning air fills your lungs. pretty eager Just a little bit to lift the sinking mood.
“Where?”
“excuse me.”
I looked at one place and replied.
“What are you going to do?”
My choice is neither the Murim lord nor the Murim lord.
Even though they didn’t have a proper teacher-teacher relationship, the Jegal Lord had already… … .
―The Moorim Meng, the Righteous Sect… … What should I do if this lord is rotten?
– is it? Is the guise of the Murim lord such a high position?
– ha ha ha. see this It doesn’t take a lot of reasons for a person to treat an injured person. You were hurt, and since I was there, I just brought you in and treated you.
―I hope you don’t change your mind. under any adversity.
– So I’ve been waiting for you. I hope you come.
―If the right person does that, then what is it if it is not astronomical geography and astronomical geography? ha ha ha.
He was the teacher of my life.
―You told me that the other day. Rotten lesions must be cut out. No matter where it was, who it was. Hasn’t that mind changed?
―Although my dream is to preserve this place right now, I hope that the future and tomorrow will be a dream for everyone in Moorim.
– It was a kind of request. A request when you were alone. With the Bone Lord, we’ll all die together, or almost certainly we’ll die separately. Will you still be together?
My answer to that was… … .
– Let’s die together, well. For this rotten moorim.
This rotten Murim, this place is still… … .
“Abandoning the Moorim Alliance.”
I think we still need a leader who dreams of being this Jegal Chong.
far away
My eyes pierced the glimmering light and headed for a large, still unfinished building.
2.19 million library.
My feet naturally headed there.
