Heavenly Inquisition Sword - Chapter 592
Episode 592. One’s realm is one’s identity.
Byeokcho’s face turned red with embarrassment at the sudden rebuke.
It’s embarrassing to hear nagging about cleaning in front of a rookie.
Byeokcho, who hurriedly turned around, confirmed the opponent and said as if it were an excuse.
“Nosa Jingran (Lao Master Yanhei) As you can see, I clean every afternoon. Please understand that it can happen when many people use it.”
Yeonjeokha also slowly turned around.
A young lady now in her early twenties was standing there with her hands on her hips.
Byeokcho called him Nosa, and indeed, instead of a cloth belt, he wore a gold belt.
At this moment, he was envious of his position as an old man.
On the one hand, I was also angry.
Judging from her age, Byeokcho was her senior.
Even though he had been in the position of a monk for twenty-five years, how could he ignore his senior like that!
“So who wants to do it in the afternoon? I told you to clean in the morning!”
Surprisingly, however, Byeokcho did not give up his will despite Nosa Gyeongram’s admonitions.
“That is impossible. It is not possible to clean in the morning for one Mr. Gyeongram. Because I also need time to practice. As you know, in the morning, you have to meditate in front of the Heavenly Aibulmunbi (天涯不文碑).”
“joy! If you’ve been meditating for twenty-five years and still haven’t reached the Immortal Spirit, give up and clean up properly! If I can’t even enter the primeval garden and clean up, I’ll have to go out and die!”
“It’s a shameful statement, but the reason I’m in Fire Umbrella is for the sake of the capital.”
“You sound like a capital. The first thing that ‘bangsa’ should do is work, not the capital. Do you know what that belt around your waist is? It means the worker of the small class! you know that too Shut up and clean up Bonghwangjeong Pavilion in the morning. If it isn’t cleaned in the morning from tomorrow…”
Then, Yeonjeokha intervened.
“Gyeong-lam, I will do it tomorrow, so leave the death penalty alone.”
“What are you? Are you a newcomer this year?”
“yes.”
Byeokcho let out a deep sigh, but did not dissuade Yeonjeokha.
Due to the nature of Nosa Gyeong-ram, he thought that if he did not clean the phoenix pavilion in the morning, it would be four months.
“Are you going to clean Phoenix Pavilion in the morning?”
“yes.”
“What is your name?”
“It is related.”
“If Phoenix Pavilion is not clean, can I hold you accountable?”
“Please.”
Then, Grandmaster Gyeongram looked at him keenly as if he wanted to remember his face.
“Did you tell me to marry you? I’ll see how well you do in the future. If you are good at cleaning, you can especially teach me my enlightenment. It’s all up to you, so do your best. Unless you want to work in a small enclosure for twenty-five years like anyone else.”
“….”
I didn’t answer because I thought of the merging byeokcho.
Grandmaster Gyeongram glanced at Byeokcho, turned around, and walked away.
When it was just the two of them again, Byeokcho said with a confused face.
“Gyeong-ram’s personality is fussy, so it won’t be easy to work to please her.”
“But the death penalty. If you look closely at Nosa Gyeong-ram, isn’t he also under the death penalty?”
“The order of initiation does not mean much in the sect. Don’t you know if you have the same teacher? For others, their realm means status. Nosa Gyeongram entered the initiation 15 years later than me, but that’s why he is now my superior.”
“Hey, is the sequence just bean flour?”
“In other words, honesty. Because his realm is his identity. A dragon can fly out of a stream. You can live your whole life in the cesspool like a worm.”
I was tongue-tied at the simple ignorant clan’s disciple training method.
Respect of the strong, extinction of the weak.
Perhaps because of the harsh environment of the Savior, the clan was also thoroughly strict with the jungle.
Byeokcho’s expression was not very good, probably because the back remarks were alluding to his own situation.
“Since you said you would be in charge of cleaning Phoenix Pavilion, try your best to catch the eyes of Master Gyeongram. Her enlightenment of ‘a hundred years of history’ will be of great help to you as well. For those without a teacher like us, the consideration of the superiors is a treasure.”
“By the way, what do you mean by ‘enlisted for 100 years’?”
“Literally, ‘one in a hundred years’ is a genius. Because he is a person who completed the podium in 5 years that others took 10 years. Even without a teacher to teach you.”
“You have that much ability, but you don’t have a teacher?”
“Because the quality of spirits is deteriorating. The spirit of Nosa Gyeongram is known as the ‘five-haeng-gan’, which is a lower quality. The lower the quality of the spirit, the harder it is to rise up.”
Byeokcho glanced at Yeonjeokha.
“why?”
“Are you also ‘five lines’?”
Byeokcho thought Yeonjeokha was ‘five-haenggan’ like himself.
This is because, in general, all the people in the small gap were ‘between the five elements’.
“They say I can’t even get into the five elements.”
“Then you have to clean even harder. You’ll need to get old man Gyeongram’s advice. You have to catch her eyes, so for now, just clean the Bonghwangjeong Pavilion.”
“Where else?”
“For now, don’t do it alone until Grandpa Gyeong-ram’s response comes. If Master Gyeong-ram doesn’t teach you even though you’ve worked hard, then let’s adjust again.”
“Don’t do that, just split it in half. I will clean in the morning.”
I didn’t want to put a burden on Byeokcho, who was in love.
It was not acceptable for his seniority to be reduced because of him.
After thinking for a moment, Byeokcho nodded.
Byeokcho insists on doing exercises in the morning because she wants to start the day in a good mood.
After cleaning the backyard in the morning and doing the exercises in the afternoon, the smell bothered me too.
“Would it be all right if I cleaned in the morning?”
“I don’t care.”
“If not, you will be in charge of ‘Phoenix Pavilion’ and ‘Sesim Pavilion’ up here. I’ll clean ‘Little Fairy’ and ‘Mugungjeon’ in the afternoon.”
He nodded his head in suspense.
‘Bonghwangjeong’ and Cheonaegok’s ‘Sesimjeong’ were close to each other, so it was easy to clean them.
“I will.”
“If you don’t want to try it in the morning, tell me. No matter what Nosa Gyeongram says, training comes first.”
“yes.”
“Then let’s go. I’ll tell you where I need to pay special attention to at Phoenix Pavilion.”
Byeokcho strode ahead.
His steps were full of confidence with twenty-five years of work.
But there is no green life.
Unexpectedly, I saw Byeokcho without realizing that I was in love with the appearance of the backyard of Bonghwangjeong, which was dirty beyond imagination.
I thought that Nosa Gyeong-ram had caught the house, but this was enough to cause swearing.
“Wall execution, how many days have you been cleaning today?”
“It’s a day because we did it yesterday afternoon.”
“No, it’s only been a day, so why is it so dirty? I thought fortnight had passed.”
Yeonjeokha muttered with a stunned face.
It was dirty like the back of an inn that I don’t know when it was cleaned, but it’s only a day.
Byeokcho, who had been digging the road for twenty-five years, spoke calmly.
“Each person uses the back liver differently. Some people don’t leave any traces of where they’ve been, but others, like dogs, get dirty all over the place. Only about 500 people live in Cheonjubong. Can’t they all be clean?”
“Doesn’t people who study Yangsaengsul also eat Byeokgokdan? They say it hardly even poops.”
“Byeokgokdan is what ordinary monks with a short lifespan eat. Disciples of the sects live for hundreds of years even when they become true men (the realm of Wonyoung), so they rather enjoy food. Who would eat Byeokgokdan when you can still eat something greasy?”
He let out a sigh in the midst of reconciliation.
I didn’t think it would get this dirty in just one day.
‘Ah, I really hate it.’
***
That night.
After dinner, Byeong-hyu asked after returning home.
“Is Cheonjubong worth doing?”
“It’s just that. How about that one?”
“Yonghwabong? It’s nice to feel comfortable here.”
“Are you comfortable?”
“The biggest thing in Yonghwabong is Yoogak. People in Yoogak don’t nag because they also do chores. They even do the cleaning themselves if you don’t want to wait. Of course, I don’t even touch dirty things.”
“Incredible.”
“I heard Cheon Ju-bong is really treated as a handyman because only noble people gather there? In particular, I heard that women in Bonghwangjeong are famous for gossip.”
“Is Phoenix Pavilion that famous?”
“The brother-in-law who taught me what to do today is like that. He said he was kicked out after less than a month.”
“Can I get kicked out?”
“There were many complaints from Bonghwangjeong, so they changed it. And there is the Byeokcho death penalty, right?”
“Yes, why?”
“He is said to be the legend of Phoenix Pavilion.”
“A legend?”
“I moved to Cheonjubong 15 years ago, but no one lasted that long at Bonghwangjeong.”
“Still, there were people who came and protested.”
“why?”
“Brother Byok and I clean in the afternoon, but only Phoenix Pavilion asked to do it in the morning.”
“In the morning? I guess I’m crazy What do you mean we shouldn’t even practice? If I clean the back room in the morning, will the training be proper? It’s because they didn’t clean up. The smell is also a smell, but if you close your eyes, the back liver will flicker in front of you.”
“I made a fuss so I decided to do it in the morning.”
“Yeon-hyung thinks well. Like the Byeok death penalty, Yeon-hyung could get caught in the small gap.”
“If it gets in the way of Jung’s practice, let’s turn it back to afternoon.”
“Ah, it’s dirty. I have to make a wonyoung quickly and go upstairs. What is this, treating a normal person as a handyman?”
Byeong-hyu, who grumbled, fell asleep soon after the day was exhausting.
Yeonjeokha also forcibly closed her eyes.
His mental fatigue must have been considerable, and his body, which had been alive, became limp.
‘Yes, Wonyoung. They make it right away.’
The power of half a day of cleaning the backyard was enormous.
It felt like he knew everything about Soyojong in just one day.
how to say
I felt like I had spent 10 years in a fire umbrella because I knew everything that I didn’t even need to know.
On the other hand, after only half a day, fatigue as if ten years had passed came over me.
In particular, Yeon Jeok-ha, who had been treated well and lived in Green Forest, had no nightmares.
Of course, that doesn’t mean he hasn’t done dirty work.
When I first entered Obongsan, I worked in the kitchen for half a year.
But kitchen work and backroom cleaning were essentially different.
If cooking was about creating something, cleaning the backyard was a labor that was physically and mentally uncomfortable.
***
Next day.
After breakfast, Yeonjeokha first visited the nearby ‘Sesimjeong’.
Maybe because it was close to Cheonaegok, Sesimjeong was infested with practitioners.
It seemed like he knew why the people of Sogyeokgak didn’t like Cheonjubong.
I don’t want other practitioners to see me cleaning the backyard.
Even he, who is not from Guju, is secretly concerned, but other people are worried.
It is time for Yeonjeokha to rest in the shade after cleaning.
“A kite grand bargain?”
A familiar voice came from behind.
Looking back, it was Gong Ji-yu who followed the Cheongyo union.
“uh? Have a ball? What is this place… Oh, you came here to study ‘Ten Ai Unmun’?”
“Yes, but why are you here? Aren’t you going to Cheonaegok?”
“Oh, I’m taking a break from cleaning.”
“Cleaning?”
Knowing nothing, Gong Ji-yu narrowed his eyes.
At that time, Shin Yi-seung suddenly appeared.
“Long time no see. I was wondering if I could see it here again. It’s been two days, but it feels like we’re meeting again after a long time. How are you all doing?”
“oh! Shin Sohyeop I couldn’t even say goodbye that day. Congratulations on becoming a disciple of Mr. Cho Yo-san. Do you really have only one thing left to do to fly high into the sky?”
“Thank you. What happened to Sojeo Gong and Hyung Yeon after that? I don’t know the outcome because I’m being led by Master.”
“I became a disciple of the union leader Cheongyo and settled down at Beomcheonbong Peak. Who did Yeon Daehyeop become a disciple of? You must have an amazing person as your teacher, right?”
Gong Ji-yu looked at Yeon Jeok-ha with a curious face.
His inaction is unparalleled among his peers, so even his teacher is not average.
