Nyorai (1)
Before interrogating the man who appeared to be the lord, Mu Jin had to apply a golden spear medicine all over his body to heal his wounds.
There were no deep wounds, but there were so many scratches that if left unchecked, he would collapse from excessive bleeding.
"Tsu-eup..."
Applying the golden spear medicine to the small wound made me frown with bitterness.
At the same time, there were also questions.
'Didn't you taste it?'
I was sick·
It wasn't cool, it was filthy and bitter.
It wasn't because of the adrenaline rush in the midst of a life-or-death battle.
If that were the case, it would have been strange to feel a cool sensation instead of not feeling pain.
And now, apart from the bitter pain, I still felt a strange sensation of breathing through my skin.
Even though the battle is over and he's still healing.
So what on earth is going on?
Mujin stared at his skin as if it had a pores that didn't exist, and something happened a long time ago.
In the past, when he was a Shaolin monk, The conversation on the day when I was introduced to the outer attack of Cheolpo Sam by Master Dharma.
At that time, Mu Jin asked Dharma Kang how to make the administration smoother, and Dharma Kang introduced him to Cheolpo Ginseng.
There have been no cases of people absorbing qi through the skin by cooking iron ginseng, but maybe it's possible.
And the jade gold steel that Mu Jin had mastered was based on iron cloth ginseng, which was further developed by Hyunkwang.
‘··· The achievement of the Jade Kumgang Gong has been increased, and you are able to absorb Qi through your skin?"
To be precise, in the first place, whether it was an iron cloth ginseng or a jade gold gong, it was an outer attack that absorbed qi through the skin.
It wasn't just self-regulating, it was just the absorbed qi strengthening the skin and bones.
Mujin instinctively understood.
With a little more practice, you can directly control the qi absorbed by your skin, or even use the qi absorbed by your skin to make it into an inner void.
As if it were sucked in through the mouth or nose. . .
Of course, there were still questions.
Why did the achievement of the Jade Kumgang suddenly go up?
And Mujin didn't have a hard time finding the answer to that question as well.
‘··· Wizi and Socheonju· And because I was beaten up by this guy this time..."
Cheolpo ginseng was a method of steadily stimulating and strengthening the skin at the right level.
Naturally, the stronger the skin, the higher the level of irritation.
And this will be the same as the Okgeum Ganggong, which is based on Cheolpo ginseng.
The Jade Kumgang Gong, which was already considered to be the limit, grew in the process of being wounded and pierced by the attacks of powerful enemies.
"Should I call this a telephone consolation?"
Mujin, who was stunned, scanned his skin and smiled.
If it was Gien, it was Giren · I have the potential to become stronger for reasons I didn't expect.
But I couldn't help but laugh.
It meant that he would be beaten like a dog by a master who could pierce through the Jade Iron Ball and deal damage, but he would not die in order to become stronger.
If you survive a near-death battle, you'll become stronger.
"It's not the kind of X-X person who appears in De X Gonball..."
Without realizing it, it reminded me of a comic book from a bookstore that I used to borrow martial arts magazines when I was a child.
“··· Is it a good thing?"
Come to think of it, I might be in danger of dying a few more battles with Shincheon in the future.
There were still some of the major masters of the Divine Heaven.
Perhaps because he brushed off his thoughts, Mujin was able to realize another important thing.
"If the achievement of the Jade Kumgang Gong has increased, why hasn't the figure decreased?"
The higher the achievement, the more the muscles are compressed. But so far, I don't feel like I've lost any muscles.
On the contrary, the more I squeezed, the thicker my muscles became.
“··· Wasn't that a mistake?"
In fact, it was an explanation for the bigger and stronger muscles.
And on the other hand, it didn't make sense.
Even if you use modern exercise science theories to systematically build muscle, you will reach areas that are difficult to reach.
But in such a harsh environment, you can become stronger.
"Come to think of it, the existence of Qi doesn't make sense in the first place..."
It absorbed qi into the skin, strengthening the skin, muscles, and blood vessels.
So, even if the skin compresses the muscles, the bones and blood vessels can hold on.
But that didn't make sense in the first place. If there was no such thing as "Qi"...
"Was the qi absorbed by the Jade Iron Ball absorbed by the muscles as well as the skin and bones?"
Maybe that's why muscles can be compressed and strengthened to a point that is impossible to explain scientifically.
Mujin, who was crazy about thinking so much, burst out laughing.
"Grandpa· Did you really think about this and make the Jade Diamond?"
For some reason, Mujin thought that it might have been possible if it was Hyungwang.
And the smile on Mujin's lips grew thicker and deeper.
The achievement of the Jade Kumgang Gong could be higher, and the strength of the muscles could be further strengthened.
In addition·
"You said that you think you can correct the essence to some extent..."
If he could find a way to incorporate the impermanence into other martial arts, he could become even stronger.
Of course, he wasn't good enough to use it right away just because he showed him how to do it, and his muscles and skin couldn't get stronger in a short time.
At least there was a way to get stronger.
On the other hand·
The Three Great Masters, who had all their limbs broken and were suppressed by the Demon Blood, were lying beside Mu Jin, looking at Mu Jin with trembling pupils.
Mu Jin was suddenly muttering to himself and smirking as he smeared the golden spear medicine on his skin, and he looked like a madman no matter how he looked at it.
Just in time, Mu Jin, who had finished his treatment and meditation, turned his head to look at the Three Great Masters.
"Now it's your turn..."
Just in case, I took out the spirit wreath I had kept in my bag.
There were only a few pills left in the Sichuan Tang family, so it was a medicine that had to be used carefully, but it seemed to be worth it if it was about the time of the Great Liquor.
Mu Jin forced his mouth open, forced the spirit pill into it and made it chew and swallow it, releasing the blood and blood from it.
Mujin asked, his eyes completely blank.
"What's your position in Shincheon?"
“··· The Three Great Pillars·"
Mujin asked as if to confirm the other party's answer.
"Then the whole area of Xincheon is the Hyukjin River, right?"
"Yes..."
"Li Daiju is the Demon Cult's Light Throne Accident?"
"Yes..."
"Then is the Nachal Witch of the Apostle Alliance your master?"
"She's the Six Greats."
"Apart from you, are those three the only lords left?"
"As far as I know, yes..."
Mujin, who had finished understanding the lord, asked to find out more information about the upper line.
"Then have you ever met God?"
"I've only met you once very briefly..."
"How strong is God?"
"I didn't dare to fathom it..."
In response to the other party's answer, Mujin clicked his tongue lightly.
"Then do you know where God is?"
"I don't know..."
"Even if it's not where you are right now, where do you usually stay or where you live?"
"I don't know..."
"Phew..."
After all, Mujin realized that it was impossible to get to the head at once.
"So what is the location of the landowner? Nope· Is it the landlord who attacked the shaman and murdered the elder Taijiku Sword Sun this time?"
"That's what I heard..."
The other party's answer reminded Mu Jin of the story he had heard from Qing Shui on Wudang Mountain.
"Was the landowner injured in the battle with the Taiji Sword Ship elder?"
"I heard so..."
"Is it a serious injury?"
"I haven't heard the specifics... I've only been told that I need to recover."
"So where is he recovering?"
"I don't know..."
Mujin sighed regretfully.
"But I'm sure he's injured, so we've avoided the worst."
At present, most of the major clans and families belonging to the Political Affairs League did not know when they would be ambushed by Shincheon, so they were in a hurry to defend the main camp.
But if the landowner was injured, he would have some less to worry about.
After failing to find out the landlord's whereabouts, Mu Jin asked with a half-abandoned heart.
"Do you know where the seal is?"
And to my surprise, the question I asked with a feeling of abandonment was answered by the Lord of the Three Generations.
"I'm in Beijing."
Mujin's expression when he heard the answer was nothing short of bizarre.
‘··· Beijing..."
In Peking was the imperial court of the Empire.
There was no law forbidding the Wulin people to go to Beijing, but if they broke out in armed conflict or went on a rampage there, there was a risk that the military and the members of the Golden Committee would become entangled.
Of course, they were traitors who dreamed of overthrowing the current Imperial Family, but there was no guarantee that the Imperial Family would believe them.
In the midst of a war with the Divine Heavens, there was a misunderstanding with the Imperial Family, and I had to go to war with them.
It was a horrible development just to imagine.
"I'll have to talk about this with the Lord and the General Army first."
Realizing that he was not alone in his decision, Mujin began to dig for additional information.
"Do you know the name or impression that Yin Zhu uses in Beijing, or the place where he resides?"
"I don't know all about you..."
After that, Mujin asked a few questions, but they were all things he already knew or trivialized. No significant information has emerged since then.
Mu Jin, realizing that it was time for the psychic pill's medicinal effect to run out, asked one last time.
"Were there any additional assassins sent to Jiangcheng County?"
"If you've killed all the Watchers, there won't be any more..."
"Watchers?"
Mujin frowned· The situation was so urgent that I couldn't scour the entire prefecture looking for the Watcher.
"What if we didn't deal with the Watchers?"
"If the Sentinels had remained and the Assassins had been killed, the Sentinels would have called for additional assistance. At the level of your escort..."
Mu Jin let out a deep sigh at the answer of the Three Great Masters.
"Phew· It's not going to be easy."
Apparently, as soon as the commandos finished their medical treatment and first aid, they had to move.
“··· Please hold on· Mugung-ah·"
Mu Jin muttered as he looked at the sky in the direction of Hunan's Zhengmu Meng.
* * *
It's been two days since I left Shandong's Jiangcheng County.
Mu Gong and his companions were running through the southern province of Henan Province.
It was too slow compared to the fact that the task force arrived in Shandong from the Political Alliance in only two days, but this was unavoidable.
His escorts were inferior in martial arts to those who had been selected as special units, and even Bai Ling's body was not very strong.
No, it's just that I've regained some health thanks to my mastery of the Polar Realm technique. Originally, he was a frail figure who suffered from a seven-syllable vein.
Just by coming this far in two days, I could see that they had done their best.
‘··· I think it's time to settle down, right?'
Rather, he felt that it would be better to slow down.
There have been no raids in the past two days, and the movement has been peaceful.
Beside him were his bodyguards, who were tired of performing the attack like a villain.
"Huh
"Huh
To add a little exaggeration, I was worried that I would collapse from exhaustion, not from an assassin's attack.
However, the person who was most worried about Mu Gung was not the bodyguards, but Bai Ga Ling.
She was sitting alone in the carriage, but her face was a little pale because she was moving so quickly that she hadn't rested properly.
Knowing that he was suffering from a serious chronic illness called the seven-syllable vein, I couldn't help but be worried.
Take a moment to think about taking a break.
Mu Gong raised his hand and gave a stop signal.
But it wasn't for the sake of rest.
"Someone is approaching..."
He could feel someone approaching him through the bushes next to the coffin.
Mu Gong's face suddenly contorted as he scrutinized his face to determine their identity.
I don't know about the others, but just one· There were familiar faces.
But he wasn't a man I had ever met in person. I was just getting acquainted with it through the grooming of the Political Affairs League.
Mu Gong swallowed his saliva once and asked the other party with a serious expression.
"Why did the leader of the Green Forest come to Henan Province?"
