Possessing a Murim Clan’s Youngest Son - Chapter 203
Episode 203. The name of the wave translation
is unknown wave fabric (未詳写字的).
A name that seems forced.
It wasn’t a name worth opening.
But now is not the time to discuss this or that…
Han Ibi tried activating it for the first time.
Tiriring.
[It is a wave fabric with an unknown text written on it.]
A description of the item appeared like this.
‘No, who wouldn’t know if they saw that? Check contents.’
Then, the contents of the text written on the fabric were clearly revealed before my eyes.
But….
‘What is this? I wonder if the writing is really correct… I can’t read it at all.’
Yes.
Although Jongrimae was a member of the Gaekchaban family, he is still a descendant of the Jong family, a former Murim family.
There were almost no letters that Han Yi-bi, who was synchronized with Zhongli-mae, could not read.
However, it was impossible to interpret these characters, which were believed to be sentences written in Chinese characters.
‘Isn’t it a graffiti that didn’t make sense to begin with… Damn it. I guess I had useless expectations. Even if I try to use the tactical strategy and advice function, there is still a long way to go… Moreover, looking at my track record so far, I am not sure if I will be able to teach you kindly…’
That was then.
Tiriring.
[Tactical strategy persistence reacts to the item.]
[The tactical strategy persistence DB system has been implemented.]
[Field: Translation]
‘Huh? ‘What is this?’
Han Ibi took a close look at the function displayed in the system window.
‘It’s a transgression… Then is it like a kind of code breaking…’
That was it.
Tactical Strategy is a compilation of information gathered by the rare sage Geum Sa-ik.
A textbook to create a great Son of Heaven and at the same time raise wise and courageous generals.
It included explanations of political, historical, and economic methods of maintaining peace in times of peace, as well as military, strategic, and emergency medical and information operation systems that could be used in times of political turmoil.
And….
This ‘disruption function’ is related to military code decryption technology corresponding to the information operation system.
When Han Ibi realized what she had discovered, she took a deep breath without realizing it.
‘In the midst of this, what on earth is there to hide? Let’s give it a try, whether it helps or not.’
Han Ibi tried a combination of two reactive items.
Then….
Tiriring.
[Attempting to transcode an unknown wave fabric.]
Then, I saw letters passing in front of me at very high speed.
As Han Ibi watched with her eyes wide open even though she was unconscious, she was soon able to realize that it was a variety of military encryption techniques.
It goes without saying that information is important in war, both then and now.
In particular, in the old days, the transmission and reception of military information, such as telegraphs or personal mail, depended on transcription.
Detecting the contents was a fatal turning point that determined the success or failure of the war.
In other words, deciphering the other party’s military code could be the key to turning the situation around.
So, the various cryptography principles left behind by Geum Sa-ik were spinning rapidly in Han I-bi’s mind, analyzing whether they matched the character type of this ‘unknown wave fabric’.
However, it is inevitable that it will take a long time.
Isn’t a password an information transmission system created in the hope that it will never be cracked?
It was then.
Floating.
Along with the dull tone, a change occurred in the status window.
[The encryption type of the object has been confirmed using the radical substitution method. Do you want to continue? (Y/N)]
‘Of course I should continue. yes.’
Then, I started again to analyze the unique radical substitution method of the letter system written on the cloth.
Even if you understand the format, it is nothing more than understanding the framework in which the encryption system is composed.
Currently, Tactical Strategy is analyzing the unique pattern of ‘character conversion’ of this encryption system using the characters written on this piece of cloth as raw material.
[10% of the damage to the object has been completed.]
And this was a very difficult process that required interaction between the automatically running part of the system and the caster’s consciousness.
‘In times like this, it’s probably a good thing that I was tied up. If I were free, I would have been so annoyed by my personality that I would have hit him.’
[The destruction of the object is 30% complete.]
How much time has passed like that?…
Han Ibi is almost exhausted as she maintains clear consciousness by keeping pace with the detox method with the sincerity of practicing martial arts. It was.
And finally….
bang.
A sound effect that is heavy and refreshing at the same time.
[Decoding of the object is 88% complete.]
[Due to the limitations of the target material, further deciphering is not possible.]
‘Hmm…’
Han Ibi sighed inwardly.
A method of interfering with deciphering by changing normal radicals and abnormal radicals under certain rules.
However, this rule is just a law created by the original designer.
We had to acknowledge the fundamental limitation that deciphering is impossible unless the law of radical substitution occurs repeatedly in the same record.
It was then.
Tiriring.
[Disruption was completed unstable.]
[Would you like to check the target you have now destroyed? (Y/N)]
Han Ibi thought for a moment.
‘Anyway, perfect things can’t exist here or where I live. It’s just a challenge to bring back old memories of taking English reading tests! Yes, show me the decryption results.’
Tiriring.
[The results of the wave translation for the unknown wave fabric are indicated.]
Han Ibi turned her attention to the first sentence.
– I, Jong-ri Sang-hyeon (鍾離常賢)…
‘A million! ‘Jong Li Sang-hyeon?’
Very strong from the beginning!
If you are Jong-ri Sang-hyeon, isn’t he the person who founded the Jong-ri family, in which the main character, Jong-ri-hyeok, worked?
He is also a nameless hero who defeated the Demon Cult after a fierce battle.
But why… does his name stick out from the clothes of his enemy, Zong Li-Se?
Han Ibi was lost in thought for a moment.
‘Hmm. The people who rushed to kill me as soon as I crossed over to this world were probably from Qilianmun or Cheonseonggung… If not, they were probably on their orders.’
I feel like it’s going faster than usual, probably because the blood is rushing to my head.
‘Their goal was the Zhongli Immortal Duke…. They must have already invaded the Zhongli family and plundered everything they thought was related. He may not have been able to decipher the code, but he probably wanted to check it later. Moreover, if that information had been written on the back of the clothes, the safest way would have been to hide it by wearing it…’
That was the most reasonable inference that Han Ibi could think of.
Maybe he was trying to gulp it down on his own.
‘But that’s where I ended up meeting Master Song… He would never have imagined that he, a considerable expert, would die in such a tragic accident…’
And that he cut that cloth as a test!
Then I felt a vast shiver run down my spine.
Does this mean that all of this was one huge screenplay interlocked like gears?…
Anyway…
‘Let’s read the next part quickly.’
– …I will tell this to future generations. I just hope again. I sincerely hope that our family and the martial arts community will be at peace and that this personal letter will never be read.
‘Oh oh. ‘This is a kind of will passed on to future generations.’
– I originally created a great martial art based on my father’s legacy, but at the same time, the side effects of it left me physically and mentally exhausted.
‘huh? Does great martial arts refer to Zhongli martial arts? But why is my mind and body…’
– My father is Sun Hwang-woo (孫黃牛), an elder of the Northern God Church, and my mother is Si Yeo-geum (施呂錦) of the Kunlun Sect.
Han Ibi could not help but believe her eyes.
Truly a series of surprises.
So now…
Isn’t it true that the father of the first head of the family, Zong Lise, is an elder from the Demonic Cult, and his mother is a member of the Kunlun Sect?
From then on, the narrative continued through neatly written letters.
Surprisingly, the surname Jong-li was created by Jong-li Sang-hyeon to hide his identity… His original name was Si Sang-hyeon, after his mother’s last name.
However, there was no description of the detailed circumstances.
Anyway…
it was confirmed that a significant part of Zhongli Martial Arts was influenced by the martial arts of Northern Xinjiang, and the rest was built on the foundation of Kunlun School Taoism.
And Zhongli Shangxian did not want his descendants to learn this martial art.
Like most magical arts…
it caused serious side effects that harmed the practitioner’s body.
Accordingly, Zhongli Shangxian transferred the weight of Zhongli’s martial arts in the direction of Taoism and passed it on…
Through this, he was able to escape from the demonic path, but as generations passed, Zhongli’s martial arts lost their extraordinaryness and fell to a mediocre level.
‘It seems that a person named Jong Li Sang-hyeon was also concerned about this situation. I ended up leaving this Zongli Intangible Gong, which I regard as a type of magical Gong, in written form…’
And those concerns became reality.
The Jong-ri family, which had been reduced to an ordinary level, was eventually unable to maintain its reputation and ended up going extinct.
‘Tsk tsk tsk. If there had been a clever person among the descendants who had discovered this will a little earlier… or perhaps even if he had found it, he might not have been able to decipher it….’
How can all of this be explained if it is not a trick of fate?
Anyway, Han Ibi had no choice but to read further.
Although there were parts that were not deciphered here and there, there was no great difficulty in understanding the overall context.
And finally…
‘This is where the explanation of Zhongli Immortal Gong begins!’
– The name of Zongli Shapeless Ball all comes from formlessness (無形). This is in line with the formless God pursued by Northern Shintoism, and formlessness means breaking the limitations of the vessels encountered by all martial
arts ….
I was able to.
This is because there was almost nothing that could be called work.
The predecessor of Qilianmun was Northern Shinkyo.
Northern Shinism believed in thorough ‘dogmatic literalism’, and its basis was the law of ‘Ma Geun-rae’, the so-called first founder of Northern Shinism.
So, the story goes that most of those who deviate from the harsh standards of the law pay for their sins with death.
The number of criminals naturally imprisoned was very small.
Of course, even that was actually just a brief detention before punishment.
So wouldn’t it be that Jeong Han-yul (鄭瀚栗), the nephew of Grand Elder Ki Ryeon-mun, holds such a worthy position?
Moreover…
the jailer had absolute authority.
As long as they did not kill them, no one interfered with torturing or harassing prisoners.
Although it’s such a comfortable place…
something somewhat annoying has happened since yesterday.
Unidentified prisoner.
Not only Gyeon Cheon-mo’s subordinates, but even Elder Shim Wook-an, who suddenly visited without any message, said nothing about the identity of this guy.
And that’s not enough…
“What did you do so wrong that they hung you upside down and even tied your hands? That’s really strange. “If I had made such a big mistake, I would have beaten you to death right away…” Even
if I tilted my head and thought about it to myself…
there was no way I could figure it out.
“Eh, I don’t know.”
He was quite bored, so he took out a whip, opened a stone chamber, and started whipping the fallen criminal on the back.
“Ahh! sorry! Help me.”
The young boy’s back was roughly torn apart by sharp leather, and blood poured out.
He was the son of Qilianmun Pyeongmundo, who had dared to touch the underground water managed by Qilianmun a few days ago.
Anyway, tomorrow he would die with his limbs torn apart as an example to the disciples.
Jeong Han-yul, who was in a good mood, stopped beating him and passed the stone room where the new guy was imprisoned.
‘You were so loud yesterday, why are you so quiet again today?’
He thought it was strange and looked inside through a gap in the stone chamber.
But…
‘Huh?’
The prisoner’s condition is strange.
Elder Shim Wook-an has only one request.
To hold him in good condition until Lord Moon himself comes to interrogate him.
But that guy hanging upside down right now…isn’t he just as limp as a slaughtered pig?
For a moment, Jeong Han-yul felt scared.
If you let the prisoner die before Moon-joo came…
there was no law preventing you from being hung in those chains.
He quickly put down his whip and picked up his sword, just in case.
He then immediately unlocked the stone door, went in, and stood in front of Han Ibi’s limp body.
