“….”
It was around the end of Yusi (??) that Ki Woo-hee, who had closed his eyes and focused on Wonmuchi Sanggyeol, opened them again.
After a while.
“Can I come in?”
“yes.”
The door opened and the public ambassador appeared.
Ki Woo-hee bowed his head.
“See you, Lord.”
“Haha, did you know?”
“I’ve been a little sensitive lately.”
Thanks to the Wonmuchi Sanggyeol, the sloppy Dandanjeon ripened solidly.
Additionally, due to her innate spiritual eyes, she was able to see everything around her with her mind’s eyes. Her spiritual eyes, which had grown further due to Wonmuchisanggyeol, had now reached a level that even Seongcheon’s masters could not avoid.
Of course, you wouldn’t know if she was aware of her existence and completely hid herself, but at this point alone, she deserved praise.
“You’ve become a lot thinner in a few days.”
“Compared to the Lord’s construction, it is nothing special.”
“Don’t say that. Is there anything more sacred than saving a dying patient? “It can be said that the work of each member of the organization is the most important.”
Ki Woo-hee smiled.
A slightly faint smile. His face definitely looked tired.
The public ambassador pretended not to notice her fatigue. Because I knew she wanted it.
“Please sit down, Lord.”
“Then excuse me for a moment.”
After a while.
The two people sat across from each other, with tea steeped in medicinal herbs.
Ambassador Gong Gong, who was quietly looking at Ki Woo-hee, smiled and said.
“It reminds me of the first time I saw a footnote.”
“Me?”
“You looked really anxious back then.”
Ki Woo-hee bowed his head. There was nothing else to say.
“But now he seems very stable as the head of an organization. “This is truly a good thing.”
“That’s too much praise.”
“What does the empty seat look like?”
It was a random question. Meanwhile, he was said to be an empty monk and not even a leader.
An extremely personal yet sudden question.
Ki Woo-hee said calmly.
“It looks like King Myeong sitting cross-legged.”
Ambassador Gong Gong’s question was to ask how he sees himself in her spirit, and Ki Woo-hee, knowing his intention, answered as follows.
“is it.”
“But it looks complicated.”
“hmm.”
“An angry figure or expression is benevolent. He sat cross-legged and there was fire everywhere, but none of the fire touched his body. “Both eyes are closed, and there is no anti-demon sword in hand.”
“….”
“And on top of the legs in the lotus position, there is a stone statue shining with gold.”
The public ambassador sighed.
The boiling flame of the Buddha symbolizes the wisdom that has reached the truth.
However, it is said that although there were flames everywhere, they did not reach the body. It means that you are far from wisdom.
King Myeong’s two eyes symbolize the state of practice. If only one eye is open, it means that the practice is in a state of continuous practice. If both eyes are open, the practice is complete.
However, it is said that although he had a benevolent expression, his eyes were closed. This means that you are far from completing your practice and are still in a state of insufficient practice even with both eyes closed.
The fact that the anti-demon sword is not in hand means that there is no intention to cut off all kinds of troubles. The fact that there is a stone pole used only by monks on Myeongwang’s legs suggests that he was neither a monk nor a Myeongwang.
‘It’s truly magical.’
Ki Woo-hee’s spiritual eyes did not simply see the essence of the person.
You can also see the future the person is pursuing or the person’s current state. No matter what anyone said, Ki Woo-hee’s words were the latter.
The ambassador said, closing his eyes.
“It’s only natural that it looks that way since we’ve moved away from the law. So, I tried not to fall into infinite martial arts and I tried not to rise to the top of the leader.”
“But you don’t regret it.”
“That’s right. “It’s because I knew that making a distinction between the mountains and the secular world meant narrow-mindedness in my practice.”
“My Lord, you are a great Buddhist.”
Ambassador Gong Gong opened his eyes again and said with a smile.
“Thank you. “Those words were definitely comforting.”
“no.”
Ki Woo-hee asked calmly.
“Do you have anything to say to me about leaving school separately?”
The public ambassador nodded.
“There is one strange thing.”
“What do you mean?”
“Exactly… I don’t know. “I don’t know if I should say this is my sixth sense or if it’s just a feeling.”
“….”
“The soldier said. “I don’t understand at all.”
“Do you understand?”
“Due to the attack on the imperial palace by the Shinhwa cultists, we sent Yeongaju and Paenggaju. “I contacted the Mukryongbu lord and even the Mukryongbu’s troops headed to the imperial palace.”
A bitter smile appeared on Ki Woo-hee’s face.
It was an inevitable reaction. One way or another, the head of the Shinhwa cult was her father. I couldn’t help but feel shaken just by mentioning it.
Ambassador Gong continued.
“Considering the movements of the Shinhwa Church so far, you said that it is difficult to understand the Shinhwa Church’s sudden attack on the imperial palace. “I hadn’t even thought of that, but after listening to the military’s detailed explanation, I thought it was indeed worth it.”
“I see.”
“That’s why you said you recommended Yeongaju even more. Yeongaju’s sword of heart can demonstrate absolute power in any situation at least once. “I don’t know, but you are not an unmanned person.”
“no. “I know how scary Lord Yeonga’s heart and sword are.”
In fact, Ki Woo-hee had seen Yeon-wi in martial arts a few times.
And I was very surprised. Although the size of Sangdanjeon did not change compared to before it ascended to Mugeuk, its majesty became so powerful that it could not even be compared.
Would you say that your mind and body are in perfect harmony? The gigantic sword positioned at the top contained the power of a god that could destroy not only physical destruction but also human emotions and thoughts.
If he wants it, it can be an absolute strategic weapon in a decisive battle with Go Soo.
‘It’s similar to my spiritual eye, but it’s different.’
The spiritual eye can only look into the existence of others and cannot control them.
However, Yeonwi’s heart and sword can be enforced the moment the presence of another person is recognized. It could be said to be a divine technique with the same origin but a completely different use.
“I felt strange when I heard that.”
“What do you mean by strange?”
“Isn’t that so? The Shinhwa religion is a rebellious enemy of the martial arts in the central plains. It is one of the successors of the blood religion that waged a rebellion against blood religion 300 years ago. Just considering the power of one of the three schools can attack an unprepared midfielder and inflict a fatal blow.”
“….”
“The head of such an organization suddenly comes to the imperial palace? why?”
Ki Woo-hee spoke carefully.
“Do you think there might be something else you want?”
“Of course it is. There is no way a person of his caliber would go to the imperial palace unless he had something he wanted. But the question is what you want.”
“Isn’t it the purpose of assassinating His Majesty the Emperor?”
“Everyone knew that. “So did I.”
The public ambassador’s eyes deepened.
“But no matter how many times I think about it, I don’t think that’s possible.”
“…?”
“Because it is the sect of a religion, or rather its sect, it must not be moved directly. “In the current situation, there can be no more than two cases where a person in that position moves directly.”
“….”
“When leading the cultists into an all-out offensive, or a strategic outing that is close to entertainment due to absolute confidence.”
“okay.”
“The problem is that no matter how much you think about it, the situation is outside of those two cases. “Of course, it is not an all-out offensive, and it is not a strategic outing that is more like entertainment. If you are alone, there is no way you would enter the midfield with an unsophisticated army.”
Ki Woo-hee nodded.
“That is correct.”
“If you do that, what on earth will it be? Why does he want to go to the imperial palace? “If we had headed to the middle of the Jungwon martial forest, it would have been understood as a strategic deception.”
“What does the Lord say…?”
“Why did we think the Xinhua cult leader was attacking the imperial palace?”
“yes?”
“It is true that the head of the Shinhwa Church headed to the imperial palace. But what made you think he was going to attack the imperial palace?”
Ki Woo-hee became a little dazed.
“It is natural to try to target the most important person on the enemy side…”
“Of course. But like I said, if I wanted to do that, I could have done it a long time ago.”
“then?”
“I am Tongcheon Jinin.”
“…?!”
“Tong Tianjin said that the Xinhua cult leader would attack the imperial palace. And when Mr. Takmuja heard that, he urgently contacted us.”
“…!!”
“It’s not something you can just ignore. Even if it’s a lie, we have no choice but to move. So to speak, he’s a little outsider. “Because we know that, we only dispatched those who showed the minimum and highest efficiency in preparation for an unexpected situation.”
Ki Woo-hee’s eyes wavered.
“What the Ambassador said is that the Shinhwa cultist’s attack on the imperial palace itself could have been a lie…?”
“I’m not sure, but I don’t think it was intended to be aggressive.”
There was power in the eyes of the public ambassador.
“If only the leader of the Mythical Religion had the status of an absolute person who had established a high state.”
“…!”
“That’s why I came to check it out with you.”
“How can I do that?”
“You practiced medicine for a long time and then came to the central plain to treat patients. “I heard you also learned the Naegongsim method back then, right?”
“That’s right.”
“No matter how much you have forgotten your surroundings, you probably have not forgotten all the memories of the person who became your father. No, on the contrary, if you were the owner of a Sangdanjeon as big as you, you would remember it clearly.”
“Of course I remember.”
“What are your memories of your father? Was it just scary?”
It was a sensitive question, but there was no sign of regret on the public ambassador’s face. Because it was such an important issue.
“Father…”
Ki Woo-hee recalled the past.
“My father was a kind man. “He was firm but kind.”
“and?”
“But that changed when I was about ten years old.”
“You changed?”
“I could feel it. That my father loves me very much. But I got the feeling that he was trying to stay away from me.”
“….”
“Then, at some point, it seemed like he was looking at me in a lowly way… I don’t know why I should say this, but I felt like he was looking at me in a lowly way.”
“hmm.”
“From that point on, I delved into medicine. “My medical practice began when I accepted at face value that blood is inferior and delved into the question of why human blood is different.”
“You said so.”
“And then… I also saw the leader of the Four Eums.”
The ambassador’s eyes sparkled.
Ki Woo-hee’s eyes trembled.
I still couldn’t forget it. The look in the eyes of the Saeum cult leader.
The eyes of a real devil who is ready to fly to the highest place because he lives in the lowest place in this very cruel and cruel world.
His father, whose blue eyes filled with flame were filled with intense dignity and inhuman cruelty, and the existence of the Four Eum cultists who seemed to embody evil itself.
Those eyes were so harsh that she didn’t even bother to think of the Four Eums cult leader.
Afterwards, when I came to Jungwon, the first time I thought of Saeumgyoju was when I saw Yeonhojeong.
When I first saw Yeon Ho-jeong, I was surprised to learn that his presence in my spiritual eyes was no less than that of my father and the Four Masters.
“Was the leader of the Shinhwa religion close to the leader of the Saeum religion?”
“I don’t know about that either. However, just when I thought my father’s eyes had changed, I was able to see the leader of the Saeum Church for the first time.”
“Was your father the same person in your spirit?”
“Of course.”
“….”
“No, actually….”
Ki Woo-hee’s eyes shook as if there was an earthquake.
“I don’t know, Lord Maeng. The superior warfare of those who have reached that level is so powerful that even my spiritual eyes cannot detect their existence without permission. Just like the current leader.”
“I see.”
“But it was definitely my father. Just by that appearance….”
“The priests of the Gwanghyeokgyo Church transformed into other people’s bodies and became strangers with the same appearance.”
“…!!”
The public ambassador stood up.
“We are now living in an era where we cannot be sure of anything just by looking at the outside.”
