Episode 37 There is a tiger in my house too (1)
What is Hwagyeong? It was a supreme state that could only be reached through enlightenment.
But a child who looks to be about two or three years old at most has the body of Hwa-gyeong? Baek-gyu was so embarrassed that he even laughed.
“I can’t say no, this is true. “How on earth is this possible?”
“This is a child born with the constitution of the seonum body. And by chance, I took the Needan of the Spiritual Water and met Geomhu and gained strength once again.”
The surprises were endless.
A Seonumji body (仙音之體) who is born with the five senses of immortality and can quickly reach a high level. As if that wasn’t enough, even Geomhu, who was famous as the best martial arts expert, was mentioned.
Baekgyu’s face was full of interest.
“Are you the Geomhu who left the martial arts world after holding the Geumbun Taxation Ceremony?”
“That’s right. “I couldn’t believe it even though I was watching the scene where Geomhu awakens the child.”
“But no matter what, how could such a small guy achieve the enlightenment of Hwa-gyeong...”
“Geom-hu said that a child with a pure heart can see things that we cannot see. That is why it is said that it is easier to attain enlightenment. Crucially, it was probably possible because two people who were gifted with the Seonum delay met.”
Baek-gyu was unable to speak for a long time while making eye contact with Yu-seol.
I can’t believe that such a delicate and pretty child has reached the rank of absolute expert. It was something I would never have believed if I hadn’t seen it in person.
He patted the child’s head and smiled.
“He is a child with great expectations for the future. “You must be very proud to have such a golden granddaughter.”
“Nothing like cancer. However, it seems that there was an evil force within the Murim Alliance that was targeting this child. “Do you know anything?”
Although he was not a member of a political faction, I thought he might have some information if he was the leader of the Sa faction, who had a high level of insight.
“hmm. A few years ago, there was a scary rumor going around that children with unusual constitutions were going missing. “It seems like the kidnapping was carried out systematically by a specific force.”
I also remembered hearing a rumor that the Byeok family had been attacked and the child had disappeared.
He shook his head and sighed.
“At the time, I caught one and he had a dragon tattoo all the way to his neck. “Do you know any of these people?”
“It’s a dragon tattoo... I don’t know any of them, but I’ll look into it. Anyway, you’d better be careful. Well, if you press on our Paedo gate, you don’t have to worry.”
As he said, it was somewhat reassuring to stay here for a while in this sacred place of Sapa. I thought it was a good thing I came here.
“Then I guess I’ll be indebted to you. “I’ll be sure to repay you later.”
“If you want to repay me, please tell my granddaughter to look after our paedomun later.”
He was the youngest child in the history of Moorim to rise to the rank of absolute leader. As long as he continues to grow safely like this, the position of supreme leader in the future is a real possibility.
Jin-san Yu also laughed at Baek-gyu’s joke, not knowing whether it was a joke or seriousness.
“Hehehe. “Be sure to do so.”
They talked a lot and soon arrived at their destination.
After a while, Jinsan Yu was very surprised to see the manor unfolding before his eyes.
Straight walls stretch across a magnificent site measuring over 1,000 pyeong. And the buildings reflected inside were completely different from what was expected.
Although it was not comparable to the Old Daemun faction of the political faction, it was by no means small in scale.
“Don’t ask how our clan gathered its wealth. “I also inherited it from my late father.”
I thought that Baek-gyu’s father, who was active in Jeondae, might have been someone who was active in the same era as him. I couldn’t help but be curious.
“By any chance, what is His name?”
“This is Baek Woon-hyeon. “I heard that someone from the Murim Alliance attacked me, but I don’t know the details.”
Eugene San, who was going back to his memory for a moment, was soon able to remember something.
“Baek Woon-hyeon, the extreme blood sword?”
“How do you know my father’s nickname?”
“I didn’t meet him in person, but he was famous for his subversive tactics at the time. He was someone I wanted to compete with my spear skills. But his ascetic gate must have been a ghost gate?”
At the time, Gwi Du-moon’s activities were very famous. As the name of the sect suggests, they were people who practiced martial arts like ghosts, so they were sometimes mentioned even among the sectarians.
“I’ll do it myself, so you don’t have to worry. “Let’s have dinner together later.”
After Baek-gyu finished speaking, he subtly pulled on Jin-san Yu’s sleeve. It was a gesture as if he wanted to escape from his wife in a hurry.
After a while, when his wife was out of sight, he sighed.
“older brother. “What should I do with that temperamental hair?”
“To me, only gold thread looks good, so why worry? It looks like he is even in charge of running the clan on your behalf.”
“Well, that’s true too. Although he looks like a beast on the outside, he is still smart when it comes to getting things done. So, I won’t endure it like this.”
“Hehehe.”
As Yu Jin-san continued to laugh, Baek-gyu asked with a puzzled expression.
“What’s so fun?”
“How could it not be fun? Although I have decades of experience in the field, today was the first time I realized that the Safa people are so humane. “I’ve been completely misunderstood all along.”
“How can it be different between political factions and factions and where people live? “It’s just that people here have no pretense, so even if they do the same thing, they just look worse.”
Jinsan Yu also nodded as if he agreed.
“Looking at it today, it certainly seems to be true. “But you mentioned earlier that your wife was a bloodletter. Aren’t they also bloodletters?”
“That’s right. Right now, Hohyeon is divided into four forces. Paedomun Gate in the west and Sahyeolmun Gate in the north. And the east and south are the areas of influence of the Black Dragon and the Macheonhoe.”
“Are you saying that a power struggle has begun between the factions of the Sapa?”
Baek-gyu glanced at Yujin-san with surprised eyes.
“As expected, you have great insight. It was quiet for a while, but the bloodletting men made their first move. “Not long ago, they absorbed the Black Dragon first, and now they are looking at us and the Macheonhoe as well.”
“Is there any need for Sapa, which is overwhelmingly behind the Murim Alliance, to compete so fiercely?”
“It is because the Apostle Lord wants Hohyeon to be united as one. The person who loses here will be eligible to become an official of the Apostolic Association. “Because there was a cause, the bloodletting group moved first.”
Sado Ryeonju was a figure similar to the Murim lord, the highest power of the political faction.
Information about him was extremely limited, and Yu Jin-san didn’t know much either.
I was curious, but I thought it would be rude to ask too much, so I didn’t ask any more questions.
Their steps soon reached their destination.
Baekgyu pointed with his palm to the clean pavilion located in the innermost part of the manor.
“Now here, brother. “I will inform the disciples as well, so if there is anything you need, just let me know at any time.”
“What is lacking? “I’m just grateful that you care so much.”
Baek-gyu grinned, took a step back, and made a fist.
“Today is a meaningful day, so let’s have dinner together for dinner.”
“So be it.”
After he returned, Jinsan Yu toured the house with his granddaughter.
Although it was a small building, it was perfect for living with a child.
What I liked most was that it had a backyard.
A vacant lot of about 10 pyeong (about 10 m2) hidden by a fence and trees. It was the perfect place to practice martial arts.
‘It’s so easy to find a home. It really feels like a dream.’
The political faction and the Sa faction had a relationship of constant quarrels, going through repeated wars and ceasefires.
Maybe that’s why they tend to look at each other in a negative light. That preconceived notion was completely shattered today.
The martial arts people I encountered today were people who could never be said to be worse than the political faction.
Rather, their unpretentiousness had many advantages over political factions.
Jinsan Yu, who was lost in thought, gazed intently at his granddaughter running around the yard.
‘But where is there room to rest? Now I have to take another step forward.’
He carefully took out the parchment that had been stored in his arms.
The family’s secret martial arts. It was a martial arts level with a deadly spear.
