Episode 621. I went deep into Cheonae Valley , where the sound of the tiger and the cry of the dragon
matched.
The bottom of the collapsed cliff was full of people dreaming of a last chance.
The appearance of people staring at the pile of stones with half-opened eyes was majestic, but on the other hand, it made my heart ache.
That’s because they confessed that they were weak enough to rely on the fragments of ‘Ten Ai Unmun’.
I wandered around carefully, looking for an empty seat to be in love with.
However, finding an empty seat near the pile of stones was not an easy task.
“Yeon Jin-in.”
Looking back at someone’s call, it’s a blackened Jinin.
“Ah yes.”
Reflexively, he nodded his head.
The sword-scarred Jinin also responded with silence.
“If there are no seats, please come over here.”
The blackened Jinin pointed to the empty seat next to him.
At first glance, it seemed that people had put a distance for her.
Yeonjeokha, who saw the empty seat, moved without thinking for a long time.
It is because I want to settle down as soon as possible and organize the words of the old man and the social trend I met in my sleep.
As he sat down, the blackened Jinin said.
“It’s late, but I’d like to congratulate you for becoming a true man. You have no idea how surprised I was when I heard about it from Master.”
“Ah yes. Thank you.”
I felt strange at the actions of the swordsman-in-law.
He thought that the sword-stained Jinin was holding a grudge against the position fight, so he avoided it. Then, when I received congratulations, I felt a little sorry.
After exchanging greetings, the sword-scarred Jin-in secretly got lucky.
“By the way, is the story of Venerable Taeeul true?”
“What kind of story?”
“You said that there is spirituality in the ‘Television of Heavenly Love’ sculpture. Isn’t that why you came?”
“Ah, did you say that? I have something to organize my thoughts, so I stopped by as a couple.”
“I guess you didn’t know. On the day the ‘Cheonae Unmunbi’ was broken, Venerable Taeeul said such a thing. Everyone who came here came here to gain spirituality.”
“Then are all those people absorbing spirituality?”
“It would have been an uproar. I have such hope, but how easy is it? I’ve been using ‘self-sucking’ for several days, but I haven’t gotten anything. My brother-in-law all said the same thing. Yeon Jin-in will also find out if he writes ‘Suck-in-the-mouth’.”
“What is ‘self-sucking’?”
“Oh my, don’t you know ‘self-sucking’ yet? Well, it was progressing so fast that I probably didn’t have time to learn it. ‘Sucking up’ is a basic technique for absorbing spiritual energy. If you go to Manryugak in Mugungjeon, you can find Mugyeongseo, which records ‘Sucking the Blood’. Yeonjin will be able to learn it in half an hour (1 hour).”
“Ah, absorb...”
He nodded his head.
Suddenly, the master’s words came to mind.
– You said that there are ‘real’ and ‘fake’ in spirituality. Fake is something I can reach, but true spirituality comes by itself.
Will ‘self-sufficiency’ also belong to what I reach?
I don’t know about that, but at least it’s definitely not coming on its own.
As the Venerable Tae-eul said, is there any spirituality in the sculpture of ‘Cheonaebulmunbi’?
If that spirituality is ‘truly divine’, it will not be obtained through ‘self-sufficiency’.
He admired himself that he had reached such a conclusion.
Then I remembered the conversation I had with my teacher.
– You’re coming by yourself?
-Yes, Master said, ‘He’s coming and I’m waiting, not me going’.
-Wait? Do you know when will you come?
-When the real one comes, the sound of the tiger raises the wind, and the cry of the dragon raises the clouds [虎嘯風生 龍鳴雲起].
-Isn’t anyone doing anything?
-Of course, you must have true faith. Master always lived with those words in his mouth.
In an instant, a chill shuddered from my head to my spine.
It’s a wait. If the ‘Ten Ai Unmunbi’ sculpture has ‘real spiritual energy’, you have to wait.
until it comes on its own.
I shouldn’t try to get drunk with ‘self-sufficiency’.
Only what comes to you is real.
I gazed at the sculpture of ‘Cheon Ae Unmun’ with half-open eyes.
When Yeon Jeok-ha suddenly fell silent, the sword-scarred Jin-in glanced at him.
Obviously, I advised him to learn ‘self-sufficiency’ first, but he seems to have started meditating right away.
‘What is this person?’
But I couldn’t help but think of him as strange.
He was the last person in ‘Ten Ai Unmun’.
I don’t understand his behavior, but there must be a reason.
‘I guess I’ll have to watch it for a bit.’
Time is not running out, and no one is pushing you, so why stay up all night meditating?
A person who achieves such rapid achievement that it is unprecedented in the history of the sect!
When it was lunchtime, the black Jin-in glanced at the side.
Yeonjeokha Jinin was still looking at the pile of stones with half-open eyes.
‘Are you going to go to bed and not even eat and drink? why?’
She couldn’t understand her brother’s behavior.
I have seen countless seniors and juniors practice since I started, but this is the first time.
This is also unprecedented.
Suddenly, the master’s words came to mind.
The teacher said that now is the ‘era of great change’.
Whoever takes the lead in the ‘era of great change’ is a true man who is younger than him.
The last person in ‘Ten Ai Unmun’.
A person who became a true man before seven days of initiation.
‘I won’t move either.’
I couldn’t explain why, but it seemed like it had to be.
A day has passed since the sword-scarred Jinin joined Yeon Jeok-ha in his meditation.
Unlike the nameless Yeon Jeok-ha, the sword-stained Jin-in is a celebrity in the sect.
No small number of nomads and true men began to follow her.
The seats around the pile of stones were filled one by one.
Another day passed.
Half of the people who imitated the blackened Jinin gave up and left.
The sword-stained Jinin didn’t care who stayed or left.
I didn’t even write ‘suck up’ anymore.
It was difficult to spread the ‘sucking up’ all three days, but it was folded because Yeon Jeok-ha did not use it.
Early in the morning on the seventh day.
A long sigh flowed from Yeonjeokha’s mouth as he stared at the pile of stones with half-open eyes.
Waiting without commitment was terribly boring.
To wait for a true spirit that may or may not exist to come by itself?
‘Shit! Shit! Shit!’
If it wasn’t for the words of an old man I met while dreaming, if it weren’t for the teachings of Sajo, I wouldn’t have been able to last this long.
From ‘Chu Doyeongbeop’ to ‘Tongcheonan’, he mobilized everything he knew, but in vain.
I knew that if Jinryeong waited, he would come by himself, but Sajo died of old age.
It is difficult to wait without promises.
I’d rather die of old age, but I can’t just wait like an idiot.
Every time I wanted to give up, I thought of the old and dead trend as a true man.
‘I’m not going, he’s coming.’
Looking back, it was the same when I met Gucheonhyeonnyeo.
All she did was wipe the stained ‘Gucheonhyeonnyeogyeong’.
A six-year-old has to wipe it to see how well it cleans.
Gucheonhyeonnyeo came without paying.
If you think about it again, the last seven days of waiting are really nothing.
No, it’s embarrassing to even give meaning to waiting.
Waiting for seven days, seventy-one seven years, seventy years, seven hundred years without doing anything is so great.
It is no different from a six-year-old child locked in a warehouse polishing the ‘Gucheonhyeonnyeogyeong’.
‘It’s really nothing.’
The stuffiness that had weighed down my heart disappeared and a poodle poodle’s languid laughter came out.
At that time, a ‘Zeng-‘ sound rang from the pile of stones.
Almost simultaneously, a grotesque sound shook the heavenly valley.
Khehehe-.
coo-.
After that, a gust of wind and clouds came crashing into Cheonae Valley.
‘Could this be the sound of a tiger and the cry of a dragon?’
I opened my half-open eyes, but I couldn’t see anything because the wind and fog obscured my view.
I realized something belatedly, so I quietly recited the phrase of ‘Chudoyeongbeop’.
“omg!”
A white tiger the size of a mountain and a red dragon the size of it were glaring at each other as if devouring them.
It is a situation where the wind caused by the white tiger and the clouds surrounding the red dragon are in a tense confrontation.
He raised his hands as if he were being guided by something he was in love with.
And with the technique of the Poryongsword (捕龍劍), he held the white tiger with his left hand and the red dragon with his right hand.
In an instant, the wind pulled the clouds and the clouds embraced the wind.
Kwurreung-!
Along with the intense sound of thunder, the spirit of ‘Ten Ai Unmun’ came to Yeonjeokha.
