The Grand Mudang Saga [Path of the Shaman]

Episode 116 Sang-

woo secretly escaped Cheongseong. I had to hurry up and report the situation.

In the first place, he was a soldier of Yeoneundang who learned stealth and collected intelligence.

He was masquerading as a practitioner of Yeonggwanjeon, one of the sorcery conduits.

Even the elders did not know his true identity, so there was no way that the wizards who practiced magic would notice his movements.

After crossing the wall of Cheongseong, he immediately ran down the mountain.

I was in a hurry.

We had to let them know that things had gone wrong and we had to discuss countermeasures.

Their leader, the Samgungju, was the ‘second half of Yanguisimgong’ that they considered more important than any other mission.

For that one thing, Cheongnangdae, which had been active in hiding for so long, was moved, and Daerang, one of the heads of the palace, moved directly.

If the shaman’s guru got it, it was something that had to be retrieved even at the cost of his life.

The place he is heading to is Junggang Wharf at the eastern foot of Mt. Cheongseong.

Akryo told me to come there.

There was no doubt that the rest of the group in Cheongnangdae would be hiding there.

As the identity of Lee Jo of the Cheongnangdae was revealed, soldiers from Tangga and those from Cheongseong were wandering around the foot of the mountain. I had to use all my abilities and move with the utmost concentration.

It was something that should not be caught in their eyes and should not leave a trace.

Fortunately, when we got out of Qingseong Mountain, we did not see the appearance of the pursuers united by Tang and Qingseong.

And Sang-woo arrived at a small hut where Cheongnangdae was staying.

It was not good for a large number of unmanned soldiers to move at once, so most of the crew members were scattered until Myeong.

“Low mountain! Low mountain!”

Sang-woo immediately went to Jeo-san, the leader of the trio, who had arrived earlier with the dead Ak-ryo.

However, the moment he entered the hut, what he saw in front of him was an old man and five leaders of the Cheongnangdae standing behind him.

Sang-woo knew the identity of the old man all too well.

“Meet the Great Daerang.”

As soon as Sang-woo saw the old man, he knelt down and prostrated himself.

Daerang Ocheoksan.

A warrior of the palace who is powerful enough to be compared to those who walk absolute in Danggeum Jungwon.

There were even rumors that its powers rivaled that of their master, the Lord of the Three Palaces.

“Hwayoung.”

“yes. Big.”

“Come closer.”

“…!”

At Dae-rang’s command, Sang-woo quickly approached him with kneeling steps and fell at his feet.

“The evil one is dead. With twenty of his men.”

Sang-woo’s heart felt like it would stop at the sound of his voice that couldn’t even be heard.

“The enemy who went to take the bloodless was captured, and Yang So-bang was there.”

While Dae-rang’s words continued calmly, cold sweat ran down the back of Gwi-young, who was lying face down.

“Since Jeokyoung failed in his mission, the bloodless whereabouts became unclear. And it is the enemy’s sin, not yours. But how did you let the evil lord die?”

“…”

It’s not your fault.

Things just went in an unexpected direction. However, the intimidating feeling of the low voice choked my breath, so I couldn’t answer properly.

“Because of Yu Liao’s death, the warriors of Tang and Qing Province united. What was your plan to create this situation?”

“Great, great. Actually…”

Kuwook.

Sang-woo’s head, which had hurriedly opened his mouth, landed on the dirt floor.

A foot lightly stepped on his head.

Daerang stepped on Sangwoo’s head while sitting down.

I couldn’t even raise my spirits.

As soon as you raise it, it will be regarded as disrespect, and your head will immediately burst like a trampled watermelon.

“Since the enemy and the evil are captured, it is as if our tails were caught before the mission was completed. Speak the truth, not excuses.”

“Sorry… Forgive me…”

“Tattoo.”

“…”

“I’ve never experienced failure myself, so I’ve never even tried forgiveness.”

I’m out of breath.

My chest shrank and the hair all over my body stood on end.

“Give me your answer.”

Sang-woo quickly replied to Dae-rang’s words. I had to say something before my head exploded.

“Large. It seems that the pieces of Yang’s clothing in Qingcheng have been stolen.”

“…!”

In an instant, Daerang’s eyes widened. The life in his body, which had been silent until now, spurted out like a tidal wave and filled all directions.

crispy crispy.

The pebbles on the floor crumbled and the hem of his clothes were cut.

The faces of the five leaders of the Cheongnangdae behind him and his body were wounded, but he did not dare to move.

Sew.

falling feet.

A hand reached out and grabbed Sangwoo’s hair.

“Gwiyoung. Are my ears dark?”

“….”

The eyes of Gwi-yeong, who pulled up her hair, met Dae-rang.

It was as frightening as a huge tiger staring at it with its mouth wide open.

His life began tearing Gwi-young’s face apart.

“I am a disciple of Mudang. It seems that the shaman’s disciple took it.”

“…”

Daerang, who was pouring out the life-filled eyes, let go of Gwi-young’s hair.

“Tell me. carefully and slowly.”

“…”

Kwiyoung instinctively realized that he was stepping on the edge of death.

If he doesn’t say something that would please Daerang, he will die more miserably than anyone else.

more painful than anything else.

“The shaman, the shaman of the covenant, who came out of the table, came to Cheongseong.”

“…”

At that, Daerang’s eyebrows slightly furrowed.

Why did he suddenly think of the young Taoist he met at Wuyuelu?

“He knew about the second half of Yang Eui.”

Sang-woo continued to speak.

The shaman’s guru visited Baekungak, where the second half piece was hidden, and seemed to be looking for something, so he came back later. In the name of meditating, he bites everyone, even people.

And right after he came out of Baekungak, traces of the organ that could only be opened with a bloodless key were unlocked.

“…”

Sang-woo lowered his head as soon as he finished speaking, but there was no reply from Dae-rang.

The second half of the Heart Hole.

What happened in the shaman a hundred years ago was a fact that no one, not even the shaman of today, knew about, except for the five masters of the time.

And a small sword bloodless.

The key to the box left by Poongcheon Wise Man who sealed a piece of Yang’s Heart Gong in Cheongseong.

According to the will of Cheongmu, who gave up his life, the wise man asked a craftsman to make a box that could not be opened or destroyed by anything other than bloodless, and contained a part of the second half of the yang suit he had received.

And it didn’t even record what it contained and where it was hidden.

But the Three Kings knew that fact. This is because the descendant of the craftsman who made the box was in the palace.

After he informed the Samgung about Yangui, the Samgungju spent a long time searching for the missing bloodless whereabouts and the box hidden in Cheongseong.

And I just found the location of the key and the chest.

however.

“You said it was stolen? The thing that the Lord of the Three Palaces has been working hard for so long?”

“I’m sorry.”

“…”

Flames vomited from Daerang’s pupils.

I wanted to go straight to Cheongseong and check the facts.

I wanted to destroy Cheongseong right away, grab the shaman disciple by the neck and ask him to give it up.

“Are you sure? Did you see with your own eyes what he took?”

“That’s…”

I couldn’t see it with my own eyes.

All the circumstances were just saying that.

“Please leave it to me. I somehow…”

Sang-woo shouted desperately, but was blocked by Dae-rang’s killing spree.

“Gwiyoung. I am not saying anything to live.”

“…”

“Dangjia and Qingcheng opened their eyes and started looking for us. Also, Yang Xiaobang is coming to Sichuan from Baekjiazhuang. But how are you going to get it back? Only you.”

“…”

His voice was low, but a suffocating pressure weighed down Sang-woo’s whole body.

“Cheongnangdae is excellent, but it can’t deal with both Cheongseong and Tangga. However, the pieces of Yangui must be recovered.”

Daerang thought for a moment, then opened his mouth again.

“Hwayoung.”

“…yes!”

“Go back to Qingcheng. Go and make sure everything is clear and then send me a call.”

“All right.”

“Low Mountain Churyeong.”

“yes. Big.”

“You, stay with Sang-woo in Cheongseong. The rest wait with me until the shaman’s disciple comes out of Cheongseong. If he really got a piece… he’ll get it the moment he gets out of sight of Qing and Tang.”

“All right.”

When the five captains all bowed their heads in unison, Daerang rose from his seat.

“Tattoo, hope I find the pieces. If you don’t, everything related to you… will be erased.”

“…!”

erased

Anything related to Sangwoo.

Parents, siblings… and everyone who knew Sang-woo and was acquainted with him.

He would surely have been brutally murdered.

* * *

The test of hearing was over in the evening.

It didn’t take long because it was just an informal test in the first place.

There was a Seon dialogue about the Way, but Jinmu just laughed.

In fact, I didn’t even understand what the bullshit was. However, the good-favored masters of Qingcheng misunderstood even that smile as enlightenment.

In addition, since Jinmu declared himself to be in the state of spirit, the elder of the predecessor confronted him in an unusually direct manner, but it ended in a draw because it was a courtesy match.

However, the surprise was indescribable as Jinmoo of the agreement reached the same number as the elders of the predecessor of Cheongseong, who were well-known throughout the central plains.

After the exam, Jinmu was called to Sangcheong-gwan where Jang Mun-in and the elders were waiting.

Since the only thing I had to carry was a knife, I was already ready to leave.

“Surely a shaman swordsman. Although he has reached a level of determination, he is still inexperienced, yet he is on par with Sasuk Unhyeon, an adult in the headland. The future of the shaman is brighter than ever.”

“Thanks to Sajo-nim for looking after the situation.”

Jinmu’s modesty (?) was met with compliments from the masters of Cheongseong.

“How is it? The exam is over, but the days I stayed in Cheongseong haven’t been long, so why don’t we spend some more time before leaving?”

Jahwan looked at Jinmu with a sad expression.

what? stay a little longer?

You will hear all the crazy sounds.

If there was no purpose in the first place, he would not have come voluntarily to this kind of training.

Now that I’m clear, I just want to hurry to Kunlun and get the second piece of the second half of the Yang Yi Heart Gong.

“no. How could I hinder the practice of divine magnanimity? Also, I know that there will be many things to worry about because the unrighteous people have recently appeared. So, I will leave.”

The appearance of Jinmu, who walks around the town with courtesy, is that of a natural guru.

Ja-hwan and the masters of Cheongseong who were looking at such a jinmu were only pleased.

If you have that kind of martial arts at a young age, you’re bound to be conceited, and you don’t hesitate to show off. How can you be so humble and respectful?

“Looking at you, I’m sorry that I had been arguing with the shaman all this time. I’m going to have to ask Myeonghyeon Jangmunin for exchange sooner or later. How can you train younger students so well? After all, the shaman is the beacon of Domun.”

If you keep hearing compliments, it’s nagging.

And it’s damn right.

A lantern?

As far as Jinmu knows, it has been more than ten years since Cheongseong has not interacted with the shaman.

What would you do if you were tied up by the Five Great Gates? Even though there were rumors that the shaman was molesting the mangdo, they were the ones who did not extend their hand even once. It’s good to talk and it’s elegant, but it’s a topic that I’ve never been able to take a look at it.

Whatever the Dosa is.

I thought it would be beneficial, so I thought it was only an intention to make a relationship again.

After getting what he wanted, everything in Cheongseong began to look precious in the eyes of Jinmu, who had never liked Taoists so much.

“Anyway, since your heart is like that, I won’t hold you anymore. However, please do not give up the desire to see me off to the outside of prose.”

“Thank you for being considerate of Jang Moon-in.”

It’s finally over.

Jinmu was now thinking of moving toward Kunlun with hopeful steps.

“Sangwoo!”

“Yes, a long writer.”

Sang-woo, who had been waiting for Ja-hwan’s call, approached him in uniform.

“Your face?”

“I tripped and rolled.”

“Not being careful like that.”

It’s a pity that the face is torn.

It was fine until yesterday, but it looked like it had rolled badly somewhere.

His eyes looking at Jinmu were very sharp, as if the wound was quite painful.

“It is a Jinmu dojo that goes a long way. Enforce the law so that there is no difficulty in your path.”

huh? what else do you do? Beopju? Anything to wish good luck to someone going on a trip?

can’t do it Even if you don’t.

It’s already late at night. just let it go!

As Jinmoo cried out inwardly, his salary rate ordinance continued without end.

Damn guru guys…

If you’re so worried, can’t you take care of your travel expenses? Maybe they all do the same thing like this.

In the end, Jinmu had no choice but to sleep one more day in Cheongseong.
