Heavenly Inquisition Sword - Chapter 338

Episode 338. Nakwol Dokjeong (落月毒情)

Haesabang Arkju Chwiilbae Geumbulwi’s heart went back and forth even when he entered Ryuwangchae Village.

‘Did I do something wrong?’

What if you fail after asking for 2,500 Nyang just because you are from a Tang family?

In the worst case, he could be kicked out of Heochang, as well as being photographed by the two wealthy people.

Although he has known Dan Yun-mang for three years, he has never seen martial arts or self-learning techniques.

When Dan Yun-Mang gets drunk and talks about the past, all he hears for a second is.

But why did you recommend him?

That’s because, of course, he is thought to be the best among those who have come into contact with him.

‘If that’s the case, even a top-class ronin would be able to turn it into a handful of blood?’

No, it should be.

Even if Dan Yun-man’s ability is only half of what he said while drunk, he will be able to melt Yeon-jeok-ha.

‘The question is how far is the truth…’

People usually exaggerate about themselves. Especially drinkers are bluffing.

The problem is that whenever he met Tang Yun-mang, he was drunk.

So, while meeting and talking with him, I constantly looked at his complexion.

How far is it bullshit? I had to know how far the truth was.

Even at the end of the conversation, there was no complete trust.

“Originally, this kind of work requires an advance payment, but time is running out, so I’ll take care of it first. For you and them, you must keep your promise.”

Tang Yun-mang, along with the horse, pointed to a giant tree by the river.

Even then, I didn’t know why.

Without much thought, he turned his head to where his fingertips were pointing.

Patter-.

Surprisingly, the tree, which was fine, shed its lush leaves and withered.

Then it slowly melted from the top.

The explanation was long, but it all happened in one breath.

I’ve never heard of such a soloist anywhere.

Even the absolute master of Murim would not be able to avoid it.

“Did you see? This is what being alone is.”

“Yes yes sir. Don’t worry. I won’t be bothered by money matters.”

The title that was ‘Senior’ a little while ago has changed to ‘Elderly’.

Dan Yun-mang looked at the golden Buddha with a satisfied expression.

It seems that ‘Nakwoldokjeong’, which he completed in 20 years, surprised him.

You may not know because of his lack of discernment, but ‘solitude’ is the stage of ‘mind sword’ in terms of a prosecutor.

It’s not called ‘a heart of poison that can knock down the moon’ for nothing.

The best of the best of the best, learned at the crossroads of life and death while practicing solo.

‘Nakwol Dokjeong’ contains the essence of one hundred and eight poisons learned over a lifetime.

‘Whoops! How can a ronin deal with a poison that even the greatest masters in the world cannot overcome…’

Dan Yun-mang shook his collar and turned around.

Geumbulwi did not dare to raise his head and only looked at his heels carefully.

The question of ‘when and how will you deal with it?’ is meaningless.

He hurriedly left after Tang Yun-mang entered the room and closed the door.

***

Heaven and earth manor.

New City (4:00 p.m.).

So Ji-ung, who was sitting in the office and looking at the ledger, stood up and went to the floor.

Then, Cheongju Three Gorges, which was resting under the eaves, ran in front of him and stood up.

Yeon Jeok-ha also slowly got up and stood next to Cheongju Three Gorges.

After a while, Zhang Yuan, the largest of the Cheongju Three Gorges, took a step forward.

“Cow attendant?”

So Ji-woong said after touring the Cheongju Three Gorges and Yeonjeok River.

“If I remain frightened by the threat of King Guk-ju, the people of the world will look down on Geon-Won-Pyo-Kuk.”

“It’s not too late to start promoting in earnest from the day after tomorrow.”

“it is not so. From ancient times, there is nothing that is not risky among the work of Pyo-guk. If I show a frightened figure here, who will come to Geonwonpyo-guk?”

“…”

As it was true, Zhang Yuan did not hold back anymore.

If So Ji-woong is an ordinary upper-class person, it doesn’t matter if he stays hidden.

However, as an agent of the Qianyuan Bureau, he is the owner of the Hechang branch.

If he stayed hidden, the Hechang branch would be closed as soon as it opened.

The second, Il Soo-han, asked.

“Where are you going to go if you are a cow runner?”

“First, I want to meet people who are not hostile to me.”

So Ji-woong recalled the sympathetic student of Younghadaegok.

He was the only person who spoke to him at the meeting at Mugok Hut.

Since it is said that a journey of a thousand miles starts with one step, I intend to make him my own person.

“Is there such a person?”

At Il Soo-han’s question, So Ji-woong smiled and nodded.

“The co-assistant of Yeongha Daegok is such a person. Let’s go.”

As So Ji-ung descended into the yard, Jang Yuan took the lead, and Il Soo-han and Baek Ok-jo took their seats on the left and right.

The couple followed the four of them at a distance of two or three steps as if they were another party.

***

Guando to Shangqing County.

The sun was hot even though it was new, so I couldn’t walk for a long time.

So Ji-ung, who was walking along the Gwan-do, sat in the shade of a tree to cool off his sweat.

With him at the center, the Cheongju Three Gorges surrounded him tightly in the form of a Pumja.

The other escorts did not come out.

I knew that I couldn’t bring anyone with me if I couldn’t get along with the Three Gorges of Cheongju anyway.

About 20 feet away (about 60 meters) from them, an old man wearing a bamboo rib sat down.

In addition to the elderly, there were many people resting in the shade of trees, so it was not noticeable.

The old man lifted up the bamboo ribs he was wearing.

It is a dream of three treasures.

He undid the gourd tied to his waist and inhaled as if he was starving.

His appearance was no different from the old people in other villages.

Dan Yun-mang put down the half-empty gourd beside him and looked around casually.

Everyone is just ordinary strangers.

Dangunmang pretended to brush off the dust from the hem of his clothes.

First of all, I plan to start with Pamanli (破天萬里) to gauge the opponent’s level.

As the name implies, ‘Breaking the sky over ten thousand li’, Pamanli is a unique attack that can be cast from a distance.

The latent power that arose in his palm flowed to one side in the wind.

Yeonjeokha, who was sitting next to Baekokjo, tilted his head.

I sensed a sweet scent from somewhere, and the scent of ripe fruit was finely mixed in the wind.

He licked his lips and looked around.

However, no matter how much I looked, there were no fruit trees around.

‘what?’

It was clearly not a floral scent.

It was the scent of very ripe, rich fruit.

At first, I thought it might be Baekokjo’s scent, so I sniffed it, but it wasn’t.

Okjo Baek saw him looking around and asked.

“Yeonsohyup? What’s wrong?”

“Ah, where does the fruit smell come from? But no matter how much I look at it, I can’t see the fruit tree.”

“Does it smell like fruit?”

Baek Okjo looked around and murmured.

“It is strange. You don’t smell anything? Can you smell the older brothers fruit?”

Zhang Yuan and Il Suhan shook their heads.

Zhang Yuan, who had been sniffing lightly, said a word.

“It seems that the Yeongonghyeop’s inner workings are deep, so it smells a smell that we can’t smell.”

“aha!”

Baek Ok-jo looked at Yeon Jeok-ha with envious eyes.

It’s hard to believe that he’s the same age as himself, but he’s already a top-class ronin.

From the looks of it, it seems like a wandering nangin, but I don’t know when I trained like that.

“Is Yeon Sohyeop still me?”

“no. It doesn’t work anymore.”

For a moment, Zhang Yuan narrowed his eyes.

‘It’s not like the wind direction has changed, but the smell suddenly doesn’t come out?’

could it have been?

Zhang Yuan’s complexion hardened lightly as he pondered something.

“Yeonsohyup. If you don’t know, try your luck.”

At Zhang Yuan’s words, Ilsuan and Baek Okjo looked at Yeonjeokha with startled eyes.

Because he had a lot of experience in the river, he understood the meaning of Dae-dae.

“Are you lucky?”

He took a deep breath and focused on the danjeon.

And according to the Guryeol of Gucheonyeoiljinkyung, he made Jingi one week.

Unlike before, my lungs tingled.

It is a change in the body that has never been experienced before.

“Your lungs are itching?”

“It looks like someone poisoned it. Are there any other problems?”

“Yes, it just annoys me a little with every breath. There is nothing wrong with anything else.”

Zhang Yuan looked at the enemy enemy with a puzzled face.

I think I was poisoned, but it only bothers me when I breathe.

I can’t tell at a glance whether poison is special or his gong power is great.

Cheongju Three Gorges and So Ji-ung slowly stood up from their seats.

I couldn’t sit back when I knew someone had poisoned me.

Belatedly, Yeon Jeok-ha also got up and brushed the dirt off his buttocks.

Okjo Baek asked.

“Older brother, we were all together, so why was only Yeonsohyeok poisoned? Only Yeon So-hyeop could smell the fruit. Could it be?”

“That’s how deep the knowledge of self-defense is. To poison a specific person from a long distance… that’s a really famous tactic.”

Yeon Jeok-ha said with a calm face.

“I don’t know if the technique is famous, but the poison is not good. Can you kill a rabbit with this kind of poison?”

“Don’t talk like that. It’s still uncomfortable to breathe, but I don’t know when or how it will be. Poison is not an easy thing to think about.”

Baek Ok-jo looked at Yeon Jeok-ha with worried eyes.

Poison has nothing to do with the high and low of inaction. Even masters who have reached the mythological level are wary of poison. It is for this reason that Danga hear the sound of Murim Sega without great achievements.

Baek Ok-jo, who had been thinking up to that point, looked back at Zhang Yuan.

“Did the big brother, Geumbulwi, attract Tangga?”

“It can’t be. There are no people from the Tang family in Xuchang, and they will not attract the Tang family.”

So Ji-woong, who was listening, helped with a word.

“That’s what Jang So-hyeop said. Because no one would attract a tiger to chase a wolf.”

“Then who did the reading?”

“I don’t know. Gangho is wide and there are as many people as grains of sand.”

Zhang Yuan answered and looked around.

There was no suspicious-looking person within ten square feet (about 30 meters).

‘Hmm! It’s a really serious situation if you’ve read outside the ten chapters…’

If it’s that far, it means that the other person has already gone beyond the ordinary.

There is no guarantee that even the best ronin will win.

‘No, the Yeonsohyeop will lose.’

Zhang Yuan, who was biting his lip, said to his two younger brothers.

“The second and third take the cow attendants and return to Cheonji Manor. I will stay here with Yeon So-hyeop and look for someone who has read it.”

“…”

Il Soo-han and Baek Ok-jo muttered as if they were trying to say something, but finally nodded.

I wanted to deny it, but I couldn’t.

Right now, it was not Yeon Jeok-ha, but the first priority was to protect So Ji-ung’s hang-su.

Il Soo-han and Baek Ok-jo So Ji-ung went back the way they came.

After sending away his step-brothers and So Ji-woong, Zhang Yuan asked Yeon Jeok-ha.

“How are you now?”

“It is as it is. Don’t worry too much about it.”

“It seems that we have dragged the small group into a difficult situation for no reason. I’m sorry.”

Zhang Yuan, who was looking at Yeonjeokha with a bitter face, shouted at the top of his voice.

“I don’t know which deceased person did Hadok, but let’s look at his face! I am Zhang Yuan, the first of the Cheongju Three Gorges! Don’t hide like a mouse, but if you’re not afraid of me, come out and see!”

It was a kind of warning to stimulate the opponent.

Outside the twenty chapters, Dang Yun-mang rewrote the bamboo rib with a pained sound, saying, “E-gu-gu.”

I didn’t know that I would be so fine even after being hit by ‘a thousand miles’.

I think I will end my work by writing ‘Nakwol Dokjeong’.

However, in order to write ‘Nakwol Dokjeong’, you have to approach the depths of ten chapters.

I don’t want to look like I fell for Zhang Yuan’s trick, but what can I do?

‘Where is the idiot who comes out saying that an idiot should come out?’

Dan Yun-mang muttered inwardly and moved towards them.
