Soul (2)

 

Mujin, who was stunned, hurriedly opened his mouth.

"Ahem· Anyway, you plan to seek enlightenment and go back to Xinjiang?"

"Yes... I can't be an apostate forever."

"Hmmm· If we can take advantage of the conflict between the Toga and the Huan family, and bring in the Sword Family, which has no successor, then there is a good chance."

Just as Confucius and Confucius had a deep connection with the Taoist family, so the Confucian had a deep connection with the Kwon family.

And the Three Princesses and the Five Princesses were also women, and they openly announced that they were not interested in the position of Tenma.

On the other hand, the sword family had no connection to the potential successor. If it was obvious, it was natural.

The current Tianma, who was drowning in the mouth of coins, was the man who had the Sword Family as his maternal grandfather.

Even though it was still a barbaric era compared to modern times, "direct incestuous" was still forbidden.

"In particular, the current Tianma has a deep connection with the Sword Family, so if the reason why the current Tianma was made is because of the Guardian Monk, it shouldn't be too difficult to attract them."

In fact, in the first part of the novel, Gu Yang used this cause to attract the head of the sword family, Gumma.

"In the first place, Kenma has no physical evidence, and the battle for the successor is fierce, so he is just taking care of himself. Mentally, I'm suspicious of them..."

Gu Yangfei nodded at Mu Jin's advice, and thought of something else in his heart.

'After all... There must be a Shaolin spy in the school."

The fact that he knew all the details of the inner workings of the country couldn't be explained for any other reason.

But he didn't notice because he was only paying attention to Mujin.

The disciples of Shaolin and the shaman, who were listening to the story, were also curious as to how Mu Jin could know such things.

"So you're done?"

Mujin knew it was time to go back, so he looked back.

When the disciples of Shaolin and the shaman, who had been listening to the conversation between Mu Jin and Gu Yangfei, were nodding their heads.

Hye-gal, who seemed to be troubled by a complicated expression, opened her mouth cautiously.

"Tang Zhu Monk· I have a request."

"Tell me..."

Hyunhyun replied with a puzzled expression, and Hye-gal closed her eyes for a moment to calm down.

"I think it would be better for me and Mu Yul to stay in Namman for a while."

"Do you know why?"

“··· It's because of nothingness."

"Nothing?"

Hyunhyun asked, still uncomprehensible, and Hye-gal replied, looking at her son-in-law, Mu-yul.

"I heard from Mu Yul that many of the martial arts in the Beast Palace here in the southern bay are modeled after animal figures."

“··· It's like the Shaolin Five Books..."

"Yes· So why don't you go to the South Manbeast Palace and have a martial arts exchange with them?"

"Is it really necessary? You've already memorized all the summaries of the Five Books of Shaolin, and isn't the secret level of the Five Books of Shaolin also in Shaolin?"

Mujin, who had been listening to the conversation between the two for a while, opened his mouth just in case.

"Maybe it's because of the dragon power? Hyegal Aunt ·"

Hye-gal nodded at Mujin's question.

The Shaolin Five Spheres were made after the older brothers of five animals: cranes, snakes, leopards, tigers, and dragons.

Hye-gal had passed on the Ho-kwon to Mu-yul, but she had not been able to pass on the Yong-kwon.

And it wasn't hard to guess why.

"He . . . I don't know what Mu Yul said, but it's not a dragon in the Southern Beast Palace, it's a serpent..."

She even managed to catch the tiger and teach Mu Yul how to protect her, but there was no way to catch the dragon.

Mujin guessed, but the answer he got back was unexpected.

"I know..."

“··· You know, so why do you want to go to the Beast Palace?"

"My head is stupid, and I've been obsessed with false preconceived notions over the past few decades of cultivating Shaolin Five Realms."

“???”

Suddenly, Hye-gal let out a sound that sounded like a Zen question, and Mu Jin had a puzzled look on her face.

But whether she did or not, she continued.

"The preconceived notion that all meanings are contained in secrets... In the first place, the Shaolin Five Books are meant to be the shape of an animal, but since they have delved into the characters that are not animals, it is inevitable that progress will be slow."

In fact, one of the reasons why Hye-gal couldn't teach Mu-yul the dragon was not because she couldn't catch the dragon.

It was because Hyegal herself hadn't mastered the dragon flaw yet.

I've reread it countless times, and I've memorized all the summaries, but I can't open them properly.

Still, my head is as clear as a blank slate.

It was impossible to teach such a martial arts that even Hye-gal herself didn't really understand.

"Above all, the dragon realm is a martial arts that deals with river qi. When I wondered if Mu Yul would be able to understand and deal with Ganggi as a 'five stars,' I thought that if this was the case, the tradition of the dragon realm might be cut off."

If Ho-kwon only deals with a few herbivores in the second half, Yong-kwon uses all of them.

Hyegal, who had not yet reached the level of freely handling Gangi, was finally stuck at the beginning of the dragon sphere.

But even after listening to all of that, I still had questions.

"But there's no dragon in the Beast Palace anyway, so there's no point, right?"

"Hahaha· You don't even know if dragons really exist in this world, so how could you think of seeing them with your own eyes? In the first place, the dragon that the ancients spoke of was the sum of the forms of various animals. The scales of a snake have four legs, and the antlers of a deer are attached to it. Isn't it said that you have the ears of a cow?"

"Oh..."

It was only after hearing that Mujin understood what Hye Girl was trying to say.

"Do you want to observe all the animals in the Southern Beast Palace and martial arts and combine the strengths of the various animals to create a new dragon sphere?"

Only then did she nod.

"Yes. . . Rather than just reading the secret class in Shaolin, it would be more realistic for Mu Yul to understand the shapes of hundreds of animals and let them unfold their martial arts at once."

In short, it was a path he had chosen for Muyul, not for himself.

Hyunhyun nodded, realizing Hye-gal's intention.

"If that's the case, I'll give it to the head monk of my room, so don't worry, head to the Beast Palace."

"Thank you· Tang Monk·"

Hye-gal, who had paid her respects to Hyunhyun as the class leader, stepped up this time and approached Gu Yang.

"Ahem· I'm sure you've heard the story, but I'd like to ask you a favor. Can you give me directions to the Beast Palace?"

In fact, the reason why Hye-gal was worried about the time was not because she was left alone.

He was reluctant to ask the Demon Cultists to visit the Beast Palace and to interpret for him.

However, contrary to Hye-girl's worries, Gu Yang-fai readily accepted the request.

"In addition to providing directions, I'll stay with you while you two are in the Beast Palace and assign someone to interpret for you."

The help he received from Mu Jin and Shaolin was so great that he wanted to settle his debts even a little.

"For some reason, I feel like if I pile up a debt to the Shaolin God Dragon, I'm going to get a lot of trouble in the future."

Gu Yangfei accepted Hye Ge's request and squinted at Mu Jin as if he were a demon.

* * *

Except for Hui Ge and Mu Yul, Mu Jin and the others followed the guidance of the Red Tiger Brigade assigned by Gu Yang, and left Nan Bay and headed towards Yunnan Province.

And by the time Mu Jin and his companions had left Nanman after a multi-day journey, they had passed through Yunnan Province and were heading for Sichuan.

"Incompetent..."

There was a man in the dark cave who coldly looked down at the little Tianju who was bowing his head.

“··· I'm sorry· Father·"

The little heavenly lord, who managed to control the short battle that had begun to run rampant thanks to the man who was blaming him, begged for guilt in a creeping voice.

The man who was called a father by the Lord of the Lesser Heavens· Chen Zhu, the lord of the Divine Heaven, said in a blunt tone.

"Do you know what your sin is, and pray for it?"

“··· I left the cave without my father's permission and my lord's..."

"Tsk· You're not only incompetent, you're stupid. It doesn't matter if you left the cave..."

“···?”

When Xiao Tianzhu had an incomprehensible expression, Chen Zhu showed a pathetic expression and said,

"If you had moved against orders, you should have at least achieved results, but instead of achieving results, you ruined things even more. If you weren't a minor god, I would have cut your throat myself."

Seeing the gaze of the Lord who looked at him like an insect, he hurriedly bowed his head and begged for his sins again.

"I'm sorry..."

He cringed at the cold gaze, but he didn't know it.

The way God looks at him is the same as the way he looks at others.

"Wait for the elixir to come here. Don't move unnecessarily and get things wrong..."

Hearing the declaration that he would have to be imprisoned in this cave again, the Little Heavenly Lord spoke out in fear.

“··· Recently, Inju's plan has not been properly implemented."

When I was younger, I was a fearful father, but now I am not as fearful as I was then.

He knew now that he was old enough that his father could torment him, but he couldn't kill him.

The Little Heavenly Lord and the Heavenly Lord were learning the same martial arts. And in order to master the martial arts they had mastered, they had to absorb countless elixirs.

Children with a peculiar constitution who harbor the polar yang keeper or the polar yin keeper.

But such children were not very common even in the great midlands.

I wonder if he wouldn't know if he was a child.

It was not easy for the Divine Heaven, who had already consumed countless elixirs, to dispose of the Lesser Heavenly Liquor and cultivate a new Lesser Heaven, even with great power.

His son and successor, Chen Zhu, raised his eyebrows once in response to the words of Xiao Tianzhu, but in the end, instead of attacking Xiao Tianzhu, he opened his mouth to answer.

"Don't worry. The landlord himself moved."

“··· Got it· Father·"

This time, instead of answering, Chen Zhu bowed down and replied, and Chen Zhu stood for a moment and looked down at Xiao Tianzhu.

For a moment, there is a suffocating silence that doesn't feel like a father-son relationship at all.

Cow Tianju, who was bowing down, suddenly realized that he could not see the tip of God's feet, and carefully looked up.

While the Lord of the Little Heavens, who had already reached a high level, did not feel any signs of it.

Before he knew it, God had left the cave and couldn't even see his shadow.

After confirming that his father had completely left, he finally exploded his pent-up emotions.

Around his body, there was a huge wave of energy, and a horrible life was overflowing.

"Shaolin Divine Dragon· I will surely tear him apart with my own hands."

He didn't know what kind of terrible punishment he would receive if he showed his life in front of his father, so he suppressed and condensed his life.

He had been defeated by the Shaolin Divine Dragon once, but Xiao Tianzhu was convinced that if he met the Shaolin Divine Dragon again, he could kill him at any time.

In the first place, even in the last fight, he had overwhelmed the Shaolin Divine Dragon.

It was just that the elixir that he had absorbed hastily had caused him to get sick.

His first attempt to escape the cave had failed, and he had suffered such humiliation from his father, and he had to avenge it with his own hands.

"I'm sure the landlord will also target the Shaolin Divine Dragon. If you spend too much time in the cave, you might be a little too late."

As he had interfered with Shincheon's plans many times, his name would surely be written on the killing list of the landowner who went out on his own journey.

And the landlord was the strongest man in the heavens, except for God. Even more than himself, who had absorbed countless elixirs as a minor lord.

Killing the Shaolin Divine Dragon, who was weaker than him, was no different from twisting a child's wrist for the landlord.

The gaze of the little heavenly lord, who had thought so far, naturally turned in the direction of the light penetrating.

I knew it in my head, but I couldn't confirm it because I was afraid.

Realizing that his father couldn't kill him, he decided to take the opportunity to leave the cave again.
