The Murim Lord’s daily routine is busy.
At least that was what the Murim Lord thought.
People around me thought a little differently.
All the leader does is greet the guests, eat with them, drink tea, or chat with them all day long with snacks.
Then, when the sun sets and the number of visitors stops, all they can do is pretend to work a little and stamp the bamboo kiln.
So how harsh is this?
Jo Hyeon-ryang spends all his work time welcoming guests he doesn’t want at all, and after dinner, he has to spend his precious personal time looking at bamboo knives.
There are now four days left until the martial arts competition, and after tonight there are only three days left.
After the martial arts competition, I will be free again, and then I will be able to do the training I put off while preparing for the competition.
Yes, let’s go to the closed hall of Dalpo.
The martial arts competition is over, but the leader needs to do some training as well.
The Murim Lord is also a warrior, a warrior!
Dreaming of a closed training session after the event, it was time to head out to Maengjujeon today, full of tea and bloated.
“Look at you, Jo Hyeon-ryang.”
A chill ran down Jo Hyeon-ryang’s spine.
Surprisingly, a person’s voice does not change significantly with age. That was usually the case unless lazy workers rolled up hemp leaves and smoked them.
I immediately recognized the identity of the voice.
“Surin? Didn’t you say you wouldn’t come? Apparently that kid from Seomuncheong said… … ”
“I wasn’t going to come. Why can’t an old woman get in the way like this? “I was still thinking about it, so I snuck in here.”
Jo Hyeon-ryang’s expression became distorted.
“Damn it. Everyone uses the excuse of being rude to stretch out and relax at home! “They’re all going to be damned until they get old just because I’m the leader.”
Xu Wen Shu-rin sneered coldly.
“joy. Even if you do it yourself. “Didn’t you know it would end up like this?”
Jo Hyeon-ryang felt unfair and unfair again.
This is all because of someone!
However, you cannot say that you stepped forward as a representative to prevent him from becoming a leader.
Then, Jo Hyeon-ryang was startled when he saw Seo Mun-su-rin’s face.
Somehow I ended up getting younger this year.
If you are a military officer of Hyeon-gyeong’s level, you may age backwards, which means that you have achieved great achievements.
“Are we already looking at the end of Hyeonkyung?”
It meant that we had reached the middle stage of the current administration.
The last time she was known was probably twenty years ago in the early days of Hyeongyeong, or in any case, it was before she locked herself in the shrine and did not go out.
“About seven years. After accomplishing something, I once again feel that infinite joy. At this point, one stair is not just one stair. I can’t climb anymore because the cliff blocks me with each step. “I wonder if this is the case, because I wasn’t a lumberjack in the first place.”
Seomun Surin’s expression was bitter.
When I say infinite, I am referring to the infinite line of Shaolin, the best in the world at the time.
“hmm. I guess that’s why you raised disciples? Yes, I saw that child too, and these days, he calls his friends over and works hard on training all day long. Where did he pick up such a good boy? “I didn’t know you had a knack for raising students.”
“okay? “That kid?”
Seomunsu-rin’s mouth curved softly.
Jo Hyeon-ryang’s expression could be summed up as half envy and half disgust.
In his later years, the only things he could boast about were his children or his students, so it was inevitable.
“Um, do you have any secrets to gaining character? My great-grandson is very lecherous and goes crazy, and no matter how much I scold him, that’s all. “When I saw that child, Seo Mun-cheong, he was truly upright.”
“He was a kind-hearted child from the beginning. The consultation was excellent. “He is the one who proudly spoke out against injustice even though he had two more experts than me.”
“hmm. Still, isn’t there something there?”
“Whether it was then or now, if you don’t listen, the best thing to do is to give them a harsh scolding.”
Jo Hyeon-ryang let out a snort.
Still, it’s gotten a bit worse as I’ve gotten older, and Yeo Gwang-gyeon never spoke like that before.
They say that if you beat up a disobedient person, he will be obeyed, but now he is giving you a harsh scolding. He calmly sat down.
And it seems like a lot of the extreme hatred that used to follow me, that a man needs to be beaten once every three days to come to his senses, has been washed away.
That may be why the level has risen in the first place.
“But what happened so far? “After hearing what you said, I heard you didn’t even intend to show your face?”
“I was wondering if I should present an agenda for the martial arts competition. Okay, how long are you going to keep looking at those sunspot guys? “They are trash that is messing up the world. Shouldn’t the Murim Alliance step in and clean them up?”
“… … Why are there sudden sunspots?”
Jo Hyeon-ryang’s expression was sour.
Yes, the black dots were a bit vicious, but it was a bit ambiguous when asked if they should be cleaned up.
Although we cannot cover up the dirty aspects such as human trafficking, handling of stolen goods, distribution of human flesh, etc., if bugs gather in one place, they do not spread outside.
Moreover, it is the only window where you can confidently purchase items prohibited by the government.
“They say these crazy things put a bounty on my student. “Did you say 10,000 coffins?”
“… … “Umm.”
Jo Hyeon-ryang let out an uncomfortable groan.
Why would these crazy things mess with a crazy dog who lives quietly?
However, Jo Hyeon-ryang cannot set the agenda of the Murim Alliance alone, and to be honest, it is not a topic that he is particularly interested in.
So, instead of giving a definitive answer, I changed my mind.
“That story was told at the martial arts competition. Since you gave the Heavenly Pavilion to your disciple, why don’t you at least have some private time with each other? “There’s no need to bring up harsh stories ahead of the event.”
—-
Now that Cheong’s injury has completely stopped bleeding, all that remains is still a tingling pain.
It is said that it has healed roughly, but if you look at the details, it seems like a fortnight has passed.
Health that transcends humans also includes resilience.
Dan Nan-ah, speaking as a member of the National Assembly, cannot be reassured, so there is nothing to lose by waiting longer.
But it is a loss for Cheong.
If anything you put in your mouth is sheep’s milk dipped in honey, it’s water diluted in honey, and if you still get bitten, even milk diluted in honey, that damn honey!
Now, just smelling it was a struggle.
So, the food we received after six full days was truly a sea of tears of emotion and the biggest feast among feasts.
Even if it meant death, it was like that.
“What, is it so delicious? “My eyes are red.”
Cheong nodded vigorously.
After all, the meal should be salty.
Sweet, spicy, spicy, etc. should be added after the basic salty taste, so the meal should be salty! You shouldn’t wear it!
As I try to chew something for the first time in a long time, I finally realize in my heart why teeth are considered among the five blessings in the world.
It is a porridge made by boiling dried seafood so thoroughly that the rice grains are almost dissolved, and then adding water to make it even thinner.
But for Cheong, it was paradise.
And then, when my heart started pounding, I was able to start sparring again under the condition that I take a break.
Now, even without Cheong, they were sparring with each other and having fun, so Cheong, who was chopping radishes in the corner, was feeling sad and left out, knowingly or unknowingly.
Moreover, the sculpture is not making any progress at all!
I really can’t do this!
There had to be a little bit of progress in order to have some fun.
Although the status window can improve physical abilities, it cannot do anything about the mental aspect, so Cheong’s destructive formative sense remains the same.
The body’s excellent senses are merely tools, so not everyone can become an artist just because they have good tools.
This is because the talents given to each person are different.
Of course, because the total amount of talent is not the same, people who are good at one thing usually have the dirty side of being good at other things as well.
In the mythology of the Central Plains, they were divided into those who were carefully created and those who were roughly created.
It is said that when Nuwa, the Chinese goddess of creation, created humans, she modeled each human beautifully and modeled them one by one.
However, as I made them one, two, three, I realized, wow, this is no ordinary work. When on earth will I be able to fill the world by making things like this one by one? I can’t do it, I can’t do it because it’s dirty.
So he took a rope and struck it in the mud, and the mud that splattered in all directions turned into people.
The mud that splattered on Cheong did not contain any aesthetic elements, so even with his body’s excellent senses, he was eager to produce food waste.
After abandoning the perfectly healthy radish all this time, the reins were now loose, so it was no time to panic just because my tongue was a little sore.
After running wild like that, rolling and flying and getting hit, I pretended to rest for a bit due to Tang Nan-ah’s nagging, and then I ran back in and barely managed to maintain a half chance of winning, and for the first time in a while, I really warmed up.
On the way to the bathhouse, I gave a nod to Cheon Yu-hak, came back feeling refreshed, and opened the door to the guest room.
The customer who came in without any contact and was holding onto his seat gave Cheong his attention.
Cheong’s expression bloomed like a flower in full bloom.
“Ah, Master!”
Cheong ran straight away without even taking off his shoes and jumped away.
I didn’t know that Cheong, who had burrowed into his teacher’s arms, would stick to him and not fall.
“No, this. “What kind of disgrace is this for a grown woman who doesn’t even know how to feel shame?”
Even though Seomun Surin said that, there were wrinkles around her eyes.
“lol. I missed you.”
“joy. “How long has it been since you left?”
Seomun Surin, who was stroking her student’s head, suddenly tilted her head.
Was he always this friendly?
No, Salgauni has always been a disciple who has no hesitation in attacking his teacher without hesitation, but I don’t think he’s ever been this crazy.
Originally, he was an unhesitating disciple without knowing that his teacher would be difficult, but I think he was secretly stingy when it came to physical contact, whether he knew it or not.
However, Seomun Surin ignored it.
It seems that a child who grew up alone is slowly awakening because he was introduced to love late in life.
“Yes, I heard that you are very enthusiastic about your training. “Have you achieved anything?”
“hmm. That’s it. “These days, I’m practicing Yu’s techniques.”
“That’s right! Feel so good. I have a feeling that your learning is biased towards the river. So, did you pick up the Taijihui sword?”
“Taegeukhyegeom is not yet available. Ah, I happened to learn the Emperor Sword type.”
“So, did you learn anything?”
“That… … ”
It was a strange conversation.
If anyone heard it, it would have been a very sad and surprising thing to say.
It was in the meantime.
Suddenly, Seomunsu-rin, who had been focusing his gaze more and more on the corner of his student’s mouth, finally realized that his eyes were not wrong.
“… … Are you a disciple? What on earth is your mouth, yes, your tongue? “Oh my god, what on earth?”
“ah. This is a bit of a cut. While practicing. Oh, that’s right, do you know that it’s inspection training? This is to break Yu’s trick… … ”
Cheong forgot Dannanah’s instructions and started talking loudly.
So, the advice from the master who was presumed to be a divine expert, how hard he worked on the training, and the unfortunate accident that occurred-
Taaa!!
“Ahh!!”
Cheong held his head and rolled around at high speed on the high-end plinth of the Mucheon-gak’s top-class guest room.
Ugh, it really, really hurts!
Even when my tongue was cut off, it didn’t hurt this much, so even in that pain, I guess I covered my mouth and lowered my head out of embarrassment.
However, once you receive the thermonuclear weapon of West Moon Surin, you can’t think of anything else.
It can be said that it is almost equivalent to nirvana, as all other thoughts except pain disappear.
“Off, this really, really hurts… … .”
A drop of water trickled down from the corner of Cheong’s eye. This is the only moment when the man Seo Mun-cheong sheds tears.
“Is this something to be proud of by saying something with your tongue in front of a teacher?” … !”
Seomunsu-rin’s forehead still had strong tendons.
“ha. “Stick out your tongue.”
“yes… … ”
Cheong stuck out his tongue in a very polite manner.
Of course, it was his own way, and he seemed to be sticking his tongue out in front of his teacher, so he didn’t look polite at all as Cheong intended.
“No, what on earth is this? This is how it is, um. Does your tongue move properly? It doesn’t seem like the pronunciation is leaking. Can you taste it? A child who loves to eat so much.”
Seomunsu-rin’s voice was full of worry.
Cheong reassured his teacher with a bright smile.
“You don’t have to worry. I heard from Nana that the muscles of the tongue are originally put together separately, so there is no problem with this happening. Oh, that’s right. This can be moved separately, right? Now, look.”
Cheong made a very desirable tongue play with his tongue, which had an inch-long crack at the end.
Of course, this is not a scene to show to a teacher, especially if the veins on the forehead have not yet subsided.
It was a talent that earned him a lot of beatings.
Sigh!!!!
Cheong froze like a wooden statue with his mouth open.
It was a moment when Cheong realized again that there was pain on top of pain, and that if he was really in pain, he wouldn’t even have the spirit to roll on the floor.
