Heavenly Inquisition Sword - Chapter 567
Episode 567. So, is Soyojong wrong?
Gong Ji-yu saw the beast for the first time at the age of five.
You may have seen it before, but remember anyway, most people who have experienced beasts since the age of five fall into two categories.
Either go crazy or accept it as part of life.
A weak-minded person becomes a madman and wanders around to die, but fortunately Gong Ji-yu was the latter.
She accepted the beast as a part of her life early on.
So, no matter what dire situation – like most Saviors do – I was able to go over it calmly.
Even if a tiger or a lion takes the sheep, the remaining sheep quickly return to their daily lives.
Gong Ji-yu lived such a life until he was captured by Jeok-an-geum-jeo.
I was sure it was, but going around with Yeonjeokha broke down common sense.
He regarded the feared beast as a prey.
Just looking at the fact that he made the meat of a serpent, a beast of the same rank, cook.
Are the disciples of the clan also like that?
But I’ve never heard of such a rumor.
On the contrary, I heard that disciples of the sect also avoid beasts of ‘equal level’ or higher.
However, they beat the ‘cheol level’ of course, even the ‘silver level’.
Considering that his inaction was ‘Yeonheo’, it is an unbelievable result.
Gong Ji-yu, who was walking along the public road side by side with Yeon Jeok-ha, asked insinuatingly.
“Yeon Daehyeop. I have a question.”
“What is it?”
“Isn’t the realm of the Yeondaehyeop ‘Yeonheo’?”
“I say so.”
Yeon Jeok-ha replied as if he were talking to someone else.
It is because they do not fully understand the realm mentioned in ‘Heaven of Kings’.
“By the way, I heard that at the level of ‘Yeonheo’, I can kill even ‘class’?”
“is it so?”
I immediately figured out why Gong Ji-yu, who had a relationship, was saying such a thing.
It must be because he, who was mere ‘Yeonheo’, defeated not only ‘Cheol-class’ but also ‘Silver-class’ and ‘monsters’.
just as expected?
Gong Ji-yu’s words continued.
“But Yeon Daehyeop beats ‘iron level’ beasts. It was the same with Musan Baekrang, and also with Hyolrang the other day.”
When the story of Blood Rang came up, Yeon Jeok Ha asked as if remembering.
“really! That bloody horse. What kind of beast is that?”
“Which beast is it?”
“Because it feels completely different from Musanbaekrang. Musan Baekrang was still like a beast, but should I say that Blood Lang is a bit dirty? would you say it’s bad? Anyhow, it felt a bit nasty.”
“Oh, I guess you didn’t know that. Blood Rang is a beast that came over from the Demon Heaven.”
“Do you like it?”
“Yes, there are times when demons from the heavens come over the Savior. It was a beast that came over at that time. These are the remnants left behind when the demons were chased by the disciples of the sect.”
“Do demons from the heavens come over often?”
“well. I’ve heard it’s passed on at least once in a generation. My parents’ generation experienced it once, so it will pass on to my generation as well, right?”
“Wow! Even beasts are tough in winter, but if you go over that, it will be really hard to live.”
“Yes. It’s a beast, it’s a daily life, but the devils in Macheon seem terrible even to adults. Because it rarely happens.”
“What do you look like? Because being a devil is too abstract.”
“There are demons that look like humans, but they say there are more monsters with three heads and six arms.”
“Really?”
Yeon Jeok-ha glanced at Gong Ji-yu with an expression of disbelief.
I even saw the monsters of hell, but three to six? I guess that’s a bit of an exaggeration.
“Because that’s what I heard from my parents too.”
Yeon Jeok-ha turned his head to Jeong Deok-haeng.
“Mr. Jeong, have you heard anything about the demons in Macheon? Are you really a three-headed-yukbi monster?”
Jeong Deok-haeng, who had his ears perked up, responded quickly.
“Yes, they say they have seen monsters worse than that.”
“No, what the hell does a monster look like if it’s bigger than 3-headed-yukbi?”
“…”
Jeong Deok-haeng also kept his mouth shut, as if he had not heard the details.
Gong Ji-yu said when there was no new story about the demons of the heavens.
“Come on kite grand bargain. Can I continue with what I was talking about earlier?”
“Ah yes. do.”
“Yeon Daehyeop defeated not only ‘Cheol-Gyeol’ but also ‘Eun-Gyeol’ and the ‘monster’ of Woraksan Mountain, the one-eyed demon, right?”
“It was.”
“I heard that it is difficult to kill ‘Cheol-geun’ at the level of ‘Yeonheo’? Actually, aren’t you higher than ‘Yeonheo’?”
At her words, Yeonjeokha shook his head.
“I don’t think so. No, to be honest, I don’t know how to divide the state of martial arts in the sect. Because they say, ‘If you use the form of a sword, it’s Yeonheo’, so it’s more like ‘Yeonheo’.”
“Ah…”
“I heard that when you go up there, you use ‘Jingeomgang (眞劍罡)’? But I still don’t know what ‘Jingomgang’ is.”
“….”
Gong Ji-yu looked at Yeon Jeok-ha with puzzled eyes.
The reason they can’t kill beasts of ‘iron level’ or higher is that they are surrounded by a strange atmosphere.
It is the prominence of the Cheonnyeonhori or the golden light of the red-eye gold bottom.
It is known that only the master of ‘Wonyeong’ can kill it because it is ‘Jingeomgang’ that can break it.
“Maybe… no.”
Gong Ji-yu shook his head.
She was about to ask, ‘Aren’t you using it inadvertently?’
There is no martial art that you do not know.
Moreover, it doesn’t make sense that someone who has reached the stage of ‘Yeonheo’ like Yeonjeokha doesn’t know about it.
‘So what?’
I glanced at Gong Ji-yu, who was immersed in contemplation.
It is a face contemplating how he killed a beast of ‘iron grade’ or higher.
He has something to point out.
One day, he brought out the name of Gucheon Hyeonnyeo to Eunhagogum Chun Seung-hak, who came to Hyeoncheonmun.
I didn’t even think about it because it was the answer I often gave when I was asked ‘Who is your teacher?’ in Gangho.
However, Cheon Seung-hak’s reaction was different from those of the past.
– It’s been a while since I heard the name of ‘Jin-seon’. Could it be that you learned directly from him?
Cheonseunghak did not doubt that he had learned from Gucheonhyeonnyeo, the god of Taoism.
Rather, he even asked, ‘Did you learn it yourself?’
The story that was dismissed as a joke in Gangho seemed possible in ‘The Sky of Kings’.
The name Jinseon (眞仙) must also be related to it.
What differentiates him from the disciples of the sect is that he ‘learned from Gucheonhyeonnyeo’.
I don’t even know what Jingeomgang is, but that’s probably why he subdued not only ‘prestigious’ beasts, but even ‘monsters’.
My mouth tickled because I wanted to boast about it, but I held back.
When Cheon Seung-hak said, ‘I will teach you when you join Soyo-jong,’ it was by no means a light story. You can’t tell anyone about that, can you?
As dusk fell, I saw a sign next to the highway that read, “San Cat Village.”
“San Cemetery?”
When Yeon Jeok-ha tilted his head, Gong Ji-yu said.
“It must be a village related to Sanmyo, a beast of the same rank.”
“A mountain tomb?”
“A cat that somehow gets a spirit becomes the size of a tiger. Such cats live in the mountains, and they are called mountain cats.”
“But why is the village called Sanmyochon?”
“well. The cat that lived in this village might have become a cat.”
Gong Ji-yu shrugged his shoulders as if he didn’t know.
“I guess it’s the first town I’ve been to, too?”
“Yeah, I didn’t go this way. It’s my first time in Sumiseong.”
“aha! Hey Mr. Jung. Did you go three years ago? Doesn’t he know anything?”
When Yeon Jeok-ha asked, Jeong Deok-haeng answered cautiously.
“Sister Gong is right. It was originally Yanggachon, but I heard that it was changed to Sanmyochon about two hundred years ago.”
“Why did you change?”
“Since the cat became a mountain cat, it has protected the village from beast attacks.”
“Is that possible?”
“It’s a legend, so I can’t confirm it. Wouldn’t it be possible if the cat raised at home became a live cat? If wild cats had become wild cats, they would have eaten people instead.”
“Did you hear about Mr. Jeong in that village?”
“yes.”
“Then I should rest in that village today. It is a town that honors the bond between beasts and humans. That’s great.”
Yeonjeokha looked at the cover with strange eyes.
I thought it was an ‘eat-and-eat’ relationship, but I don’t know what kind of harmony this is.
Sanmyochon.
The town was neither large nor small.
It must have been attacked by wild beasts throughout the winter, and the wooden fence was smashed everywhere.
Yeon Jeok-ha, who passed through the entrance and headed to the downtown area, asked Jeong Deok-haeng secretly.
“Hey, why are people’s eyes so harsh? I should have told you that it was a town like this in the first place. Didn’t you deliberately teach me to drink water?”
“no. It wasn’t like this three years ago. Back then, the wooden fence was less broken than it is now. Really.”
“okay? Is it because you’re plagued by wild beasts in the winter? The eyes are alive.”
Gong Ji-yu felt burdened by people’s eyes, so she kept her mouth shut.
The eyes of the villagers looking at the stranger were ferocious to the point where she felt uncomfortable.
Even though Gong Ji-yu and Jeong Deok-haeng were wearing swords, they said everything.
Once we got married, we went to a nearby restaurant.
The owner, who was sitting at the counter, nodded his head with a grave face.
It’s a face that says hello because it’s a guest.
Due to his personality, he would have just walked away if the female clerk hadn’t run to guide him with a smile.
Yang Su-yeon, a female clerk in her late teens, smiled and led Yeon Jeok-ha and his party to the window.
“Are you passing by? What would you like?”
Gong Ji-yu took the place of Yeon Jeok-ha.
“As a dinner special, serve two people, and give me a separate bowl of noodles over there.”
Yang Soo-yeon glanced at the young man at the end of the seat.
His features look fine, but it doesn’t seem like it’s a topic to eat together.
“yes. I’ll bring it right away.”
Yeon Jeok-ha called and stopped her as she had just turned around.
“miss.”
“yes?”
“This is my first time in this neighborhood, but the atmosphere is very bloody? The owner also has a shit-chewed face. I didn’t do this three years ago, why are you doing this?”
Then Yang Soo-yeon let out a long sigh.
“ha! In fact, it became like this because of ‘Biseungwahae’.”
I couldn’t help but be surprised at the unexpected answer.
‘Biseunggwahae’ is the biggest event in Kuju, and the atmosphere in the village is bloody because of it?
“why?”
“Last year, one of the ‘Biseungwahae’ contestants went to Soyojong and said something strange. There are ignorant people who worship Sanmyo. Last summer, So-yojong’s disciple came and killed the mountain seed. Our village and mountain tombs were not in a relationship of serving or anything. Do you know why our village is called Sanmyochon?”
“I heard about it.”
The feeling of being in a relationship was strange.
It was heartwarming in the rare relationship between a man and a beast, but the ending is somehow savior.
“The cat that my great-great-grandmother raised…”
He nodded casually at the story of the clerk.
Basically, I’m not interested in other people’s affairs, let alone other people’s great-great-grandmothers.
“…My great-grandmother’s cat became a mountain cat and protected the village. I was grateful for that, so I changed the name of the village and held a ancestral rite every year. Isn’t that what you served the sanmyo?”
Katabuta did not answer.
To be honest, it was a sad story, but the part about ‘they held a ancestral rite’ bothered me.
The villagers may have meant it well, but it could be interpreted as ‘serving’.
Thinking about it again, Yang Soo-yeon’s voice rose, as if she were angry.
“Did you see that the wooden fence was all broken? It happened because I only listened to the participant of ‘Biseungwahae’ in Soyojong and killed a mountain cat. So, can you have a good eye for outsiders, especially the participants in ‘Biseunggwahae’?”
At that time, one of the customers who were eating food threw a word.
“So, the contestants in ‘Soyojong’ and ‘Biseunggwahae’ did something wrong?”
At that moment, Yang Soo-yeon’s face hardened while she was excitedly explaining about the beating of a teenager. This is because the most serious sin in Gu-ju is the sin of slandering So-jong.
