Childhood Friend of the Zenith - Chapter 551
[Episode 551] Shaman.
A day passed.
Leaving behind the sudden meeting with Gu Ryeong-hwa and Young-poong.
The time was so late that I simply spent the night around.
It was such an early morning.
I had just finished my usual morning practice.
and.
Next to him was Young Poong.
thud-!
I roughly picked up the rock I was holding and threw it.
A rock fell through the pebbles, and I looked up at Young-Pung, wiping away a small drop of sweat.
“Whoa…!”
Young Poong seems busy controlling his breathing, as if he is still engrossed in training.
In the meantime, I looked at Youngpoong.
‘Does it look like your muscles are swollen?’
The height is not different from when I first saw it.
At that time, Young Poong was already at the time when all of his physical growth had finished, so it was natural.
Together.
‘…What made it grow so big?’
Youngpoong, who had a slender body, had a significant change in his upper body, no matter what happened in the past few years.
Tight muscles are full.
It’s not a burdensome proportion, but it’s very different from what it looked like in the past.
‘What the hell did you go through?’
There is something different about experiencing it simply through training.
So, is it a metamorphosis?
‘No, that’s strange too.’
something full of ambivalence
even.
“Yeongpung Dojang.”
“yes?”
At my call, Young Poong, who had been swinging the rock around, averts his gaze.
looked at it and said
“The energy is coming out.”
“ah!”
Hearing the words, Yeongpung is startled and begins to gather his energy.
From the beginning of training, Yeongpung couldn’t control his energy and was exuding a lot of energy.
There was no aggression and it was Taoist energy, so it wasn’t too uncomfortable.
It would have been a bit strange if it had come out that way.
“Oh sorry. Hahaha…”
Youngpung, who heard my point, felt embarrassed and began to gather his energy.
I felt it while watching it yesterday, but that’s probably it.
‘I guess I got a chance.’
rapid physical growth.
In addition, the amount of energy suddenly increased, up to a situation where you could not control it.
As far as I can see, there was only one case where an unmanned person came into the same situation as me.
‘Have you taken the elixir?’
The famous elixir of the Volcano Sect would be Jasodan.
I wonder if that’s the cause of spitting out such deep and thick pottery without even controlling it.
“hmm.”
I decided not to ask.
It was because I thought that if Yeongpoong didn’t bother to tell me, it wouldn’t be hard enough to find out.
‘only.’
If there’s one thing that takes a little bit…
‘The energy is somewhere I’m used to.’
The energy that Yeongpoong is exuding right now feels familiar somewhere.
what is it
Where did I get that energy?
I tried to remember, but nothing came to mind right away.
‘Tsk.’
At a time like this, it would have been easier if there had been an old man with a bad temper.
I couldn’t call the nobleman ‘now’.
Because things are messed up.
Hani skipped the first one and I wanted to ask Youngpoong about something else.
“So the seal.”
“yes. The old small cooperative.”
“Are you familiar with that friend?”
I said, pointing somewhere with my chin.
There was Seong-yul watching carp swimming in the valley water.
“Ah, do you mean the castle seal?”
“yes.”
After hearing the question, Youngpoong also put down the rock and continued talking to me.
“We’re not very close, but I remember seeing each other when we were young.”
“When were you young?”
“yes. Probably… it was around the time the former Kunlunpa long master set foot on the volcano.”
It means that it was when the Blue Sea Sword went to the volcano.
“At that time, I saw the castle seal as if I had just passed by.”
“Like passing by.”
“Yes, if that small-hyeop is the young Daoist brought by the long master of the Kunlun sect. I remember him clearly because he was the same age as me from Tamun at the time.”
Youngpoong and Sungyul, now in their mid-twenties, are about the same age.
If you have any doubts about a little.
It was a thing of the past, but it was a bit strange that Youngpoong said so accurately.
I knew Youngpoong was a genius, but I wondered if his memory could be so outstanding.
furthermore.
‘It felt like he recognized Youngpoong too.’
When Young Poong recognized Seong Yool.
Conversely, Seong-yul also seemed to recognize Young-pung.
Judging from the fact that he seemed uncomfortable somewhere, it seems that there was something involved.
‘Or how about it.’
The important thing now is that the Blue Sea Ilgeom visited the Volcano Squad with the young Seongyul rather than the relationship between the two.
That meant that it became clear that Seong-yul was related to the Blue Sea Sword.
‘That’s enough.’
One questionable part was solved.
That was enough for now. After roughly organizing my thoughts, I continued talking while looking at Youngpoong.
“Can I ask for one more stamp?”
“You say yes.”
Youngpoong spits out his words with his characteristic friendly smile.
“Then, why do Dojang and Lyeonghwa go to the shaman?”
Hearing my question, he erased his smile.
At the same time, there was a feeling that the surrounding atmosphere was shaking somewhere shallowly.
“…small narrow.”
The spirit wind is calling me.
“yes.”
“I don’t remember telling So-hyeop that I was heading to the shaman.”
“Yes.”
“But how did you know?”
see for the first time
Youngpoong’s straight face.
I didn’t have a deep connection to it, but it was Young Poong who always laughed. It felt a bit different to see Yeongpoong making such an expression.
Looking at Yeongpoong like that, I smiled on the contrary.
“It’s not that difficult, is it?”
“what…?”
“It was just the circumstances.”
He sighed and pointed his finger into the air.
“This is the direction the dojo and the law were headed yesterday.”
The finger was pointing north.
“If you go over there, you will find Wudang Mountain right away.”
“…just for that reason?”
Yes, it was a little lacking to say that it was predicted for that reason.
So I decided to add more reasons.
“It seems like the movement of the Volcano Squad is quiet enough to move at the command of a long master. There was a shaman in the nearby area, so I thought it might have something to do with it.”
“It’s awkward to put that word as a reason as well. small group. Isn’t that a story with a greater chance of not happening?”
“It is. however.”
Yeongpoong’s words didn’t erase his laughter and he asked back.
“Or how about it?”
“…!”
“Or you drink it.”
Or not.
Upon hearing that, Youngpoong let out a deep sigh.
It was only then that he seemed to realize that my words were being scrutinized.
‘You’re too revealing that you’re a newbie.’
This was possible because Youngpoong had little experience with midfielders.
It’s so easy to fall for just one look.
“Gu So-hyeop… You’re a much scarier person than I thought.”
“The seal is still pure.”
To put it badly, it was also a bit lacking.
If I had been asked a question like that when I had the same experience as Yeongpoong. Even if it was ugly, he would have denied it to the end.
He might have growled for evidence.
Youngpoong, who affirmed that he was right, was a strange part from my point of view.
‘A shaman.’
It’s one thing I’ve been thinking about once.
if that’s right, It’s a bit odd.
‘why?’
Why are the two of them going to the shaman?
And that, too, without a laughing adult at the level of one to one disciple.
I think it’s as important as visiting the same old file room.
It was strange that only the latter two were moving.
‘It’s true that something is going on.’
It seems that there is no need to show much interest in Youngpoong’s growth.
This job is a bit different.
‘Because old age is intertwined.’
It was, after all, the child involved.
At least I hope it’s not dangerous.
“Grunt.”
Youngpoong makes a short whining sound.
It was an expression that he did not expect to be found out like this.
He can’t even lie.
Looking at Yeongpoong like that, I asked.
“How are you going as a shaman?”
“…”
Youngpoong’s expression crumpled slightly when he heard the question.
Is it because it is difficult to say?
Youngpoong, who was momentarily troubled, remained silent for a few seconds.
After that.
“…Anyway, this is the name of a master writer.”
I had to shake my head at what he said. Because I wanted to be rejected.
‘It’s difficult.’
Like the others, there are many problems with beating and winning.
It was the situation I was most embarrassed about.
If there is no wind
‘Should I entice Guryunghwa?’
While I was contemplating for a while whether I should seduce the daughter of the same mother.
“There are conditions.”
“hmm?”
Youngpoong spoke to me.
condition?
“What conditions do you mean?”
Let’s ask with a strange gaze. Youngpoong spoke to me with a smile like before.
“Would you like to dance with me?”
“Rain?”
I slightly raised my eyes at Yeongpoong’s words.
Because it was a very nonsensical statement.
It’s raining?
The conditions for providing information are non-existent.
What was your intention?
‘I don’t think it was a simple intention.’
It’s just because I haven’t seen you in a while, so I want to fight.
I felt that reason too, but I felt that there was something more mixed in than just that reason.
‘if.’
He narrowed his eyes at the thought that flashed through his mind.
“Is it because of your energy?”
“Haha…”
Youngpoong smiles as if I’m right.
I knew it.
‘It looks like it’s quite difficult to gather energy.’
A huge amount of energy obtained through Giyeon.
Young wind can’t control it and often jumps out of the body.
Usually, in this situation, the teacher takes the lead and corrects the energy.
‘On the contrary, it is overpowered by excessive expression.’
I tend to use the formula of forcibly ejecting it or ejecting it through rain.
Here, Youngpoong seemed to want to choose the latter method.
‘Hmm.’
It’s like before.
I found a question in Youngpoong’s words.
‘Do you dare to dance?’
Maehwaseon, of course, belonged to the Volcano faction, which is lined with masters.
It’s strange that I can’t get my energy back.
There’s no way they intentionally let the energy of Young Wind go.
‘That means.’
It would be correct to assume that those of the Volcano faction did not know that Yeongpoong had become like that.
this is.
‘It means an opportunity obtained outside the munpa.’
Perhaps it is not a lie that he is going to a shaman under the command of Mae Hwa Seon.
On the side of Giyeon, I thought I was right.
Thinking that far, he looked at Youngpoong and said.
“great. Do it.”
“…!”
When he said it casually, Youngpoong’s face lit up.
If I were to do a dance with Young Poong, it would probably be the first time in years.
I saw him at Shinryonggwan, but it was a short meeting and we didn’t talk much.
So, it was probably the last time I was heading to the volcano.
Youngpoong had a bright look in his eyes, as if he was looking forward to this.
‘…What does Bimu like so much?’
I don’t know what makes the dance with me so good.
It also gave me a slightly creepy feeling.
There.
‘I’m a little sorry.’
Feelings of regret are also mixed.
because.
“I am not the one who will be doing the dojang and bimu instead.”
It was because I wasn’t the one to do the dance with Youngpoong.
“yes?”
Youngpoong’s face showed a look of bewilderment.
He looked at it and said to the back.
“hey.”
“…”
Seong-yul, who had been looking at the koi at my call, looked this way.
Yellow eyes slightly illuminated.
I said looking him in the eyes.
“You come and do the rain dance.”
“…?”
A question lingered in Seong-yul’s eyes.
