Chapter 541 - Reconciled

 

 

 

 

 

 

Like most villains, the one-eyed demon was not a one-eyed demon from the beginning.

 

Originally, his name was Hwa-pung.

 

It is because of Shin Cheon-eung that the Shinsoo, who was called 'the wind of the meadow', turned into a one-eyed ghost horse.

 

After losing to Xin Chun-ying, Hwa-feng Shin lost one of his eyes.

 

And, like most of the gods who lost their divinity, their painting style turned into a monster.

 

The one-eyed demon has only one goal.

 

It is to regain his godhood and take revenge on Shin Cheon-eung.

 

So, he ate strong beasts and filled up his lack of aura.

 

In the meantime, he met a human who asked him to marry him, and obtained his spirit with difficulty.

 

But what is this?

 

The spiritual energy of Yeonjeokha began to grind away the spiritual energy of the one-eyed demon that he had worked so hard to build up.

 

The one-eyed demon was shocked by the unexpected result.

 

The pain of losing an eyeball to Shin Cheon-eung was nothing.

 

Reiki is the driving force and source that will one day reach godhood.

 

That spirit began to dissipate.

 

The one-eyed demon remembered death.

 

After Yeonjeokha's Spirituality changed his own Spirituality, it seemed that he would eventually swallow even himself.

 

Suddenly, Yeonjeokha's words came to mind.

 

 

 

―But will you be okay? I don't care... … .

 

―I’ve seen people like you who struggled because they were greedy for spirituality.

 

 

 

He thought he was embarrassed.

 

Because he's not the only one absorbing aura.

 

Didn't even humans eat Yeongji Seoncho and Beast's Naedan to get spiritual energy?

 

I did, but I feel like I'm melting from the inside out.

 

While I was thinking about it, I heard Yeon Jeok-ha's voice.

 

“Hey, if I have nothing more to see, I’m going to leave. Are you okay?”

 

-good.

 

Looking at the back of his head as if he had waited for it to turn around, I feel confused.

 

Just go and go

 

He must have some responsibility for what he did... … .

 

Didn't the Venerable Jinhua really resent Mazu?

 

- Am I going to die like this?

 

Yeonjeokha returned.

 

"What are you talking about?"

 

His own bet (inner qi) is not poison.

 

Of course, that alone doesn't kill anyone.

 

But will you die?

 

―After the reiki is removed, I am asking if that will happen to me as well.

 

“Is there a spirit that can change the body?”

 

—… … .

 

The one-eyed demon did not answer.

 

Even when she thought about it, she felt a belated regret that it was a bit stupid.

 

“You said it earlier. He said that he had seen someone who had a hard time being greedy for reiki. don't die I just suffer enough to die. You will have to avoid strong beasts for a while.”

 

―Did you tell me, who was a divine beast, to avoid beasts? Were there predators avoiding their prey?

 

“If the predator's teeth are weak, you should avoid it. Do you know that other beasts live without notice because they have no pride? If you're weak, you have to hide. Is it the weak meat diet?”

 

―How long will I have to live like that?

 

“I don’t know. I only know one thing. You don't die just because your spirit energy is scattered.”

 

―Are you saying that you want to live a life that is worse than dying?

 

“Have hope. who knows Will I be able to recover my spiritual energy and become a Shinsoo again?”

 

―Did the human you mentioned covet your aura?

 

"uh. And at his old age he paid a heavy price.”

 

-he is… … . How did it go?

 

“An old man who was groaning all of a sudden had a half-romp one day. So don't give up either.”

 

-That's a comforting word. If you do as you say... … .

 

A one-eyed demon obscured her speech.

 

“What if? Will you tell me more about where Yeongji Seoncho is?”

 

-joy! Don't compare my reward to such trivial things. good.

 

Turning around with her horse, the one-eyed demon walked to the cave where the two-legged black dragon lived.

 

She waved her hand violently at the one-eyed demon that was in love.

 

"okay! well thought out! Don’t wander around and get eaten, stay hidden!”

 

When the one-eyed demon disappeared, Yeonjeokha also left the cave.

 

 

 

In the bright moonlight, a man was running like the wind on top of a tree.

 

It is a relationship that broke up with the one-eyed demon.

 

After running for a while, he stopped for a moment on top of a large tree.

 

Everywhere you look, there are strange forests and sharp peaks as if drawn with a brush.

 

It was a stunningly beautiful spectacle, but a sigh escaped from the mouth of the jeokha.

 

"ha! ruined."

 

He was lost again.

 

He was breathtaking from the first time he got out of the snowy mountain.

 

Crossing the five peaks together with the one-eyed demon played a decisive role.

 

He crossed five peaks in the east, west, south, and north, but the campsite was not found.

 

He's searched everywhere, but there's no encampment?

 

His own jumbled sense of direction is so resentful that it makes his teeth quiver.

 

He belatedly visited the one-eyed demon and tried to bite it, but the canyon was also nowhere to be seen.

 

It feels as hopeless as the first time you fell into the Cheonguan Mountain Range.

 

“Think. thoughts.”

 

It reminded me of the ‘Snow Mountain’ that I had been thinking about for a long time.

 

Among the numerous peaks of Woraksan Mountain, only the snowy mountain was covered in white snow.

 

"okay! It's a snowy mountain! You just need to find the snowy mountain first!”

 

Anyway, the campsite is supposed to come out after crossing one mountain from the snowy mountain.

 

When he thought so, the agony that had been burning like hellfire disappeared and his heart sank.

 

“Let’s rest for a while.”

 

It was night anyway, so I couldn't see very far.

 

If the day is bright, it won't be that difficult to find the snowy snowy mountains.

 

He climbed down from the mating tree and found a flat spot.

 

Then, to ward off the beast, he made a bonfire, curled up next to it, and fell asleep.

 

 

 

***

 

 

 

around noon.

 

Woraksan campsite.

 

 

 

The camp, which was overcrowded with people, was empty.

 

This is because the soldiers withdrew as if they were being chased by the sudden drop in temperature.

 

In the corner of the large campsite, a bonfire has been burning since broad daylight.

 

Two people squatted in front of the campfire and rubbed their hands vigorously.

 

These are Gong Ji-yu and Yuk-hyeon, the three great disciples of Hyeon Cheon-mun.

 

Lee Yoo-hyeon said while poking the bonfire with a long branch.

 

“Sister, today the well finally froze. Looks like we'll have to pull out soon... … .”

 

"I know."

 

“Don’t just say no, really. You said that it would be difficult to provide any more items at the forbidden door.”

 

Lee Yoo-hyeon pushed Gong Ji-yu.

 

Five days have passed since Yeonjeokha entered Naeak.

 

At first, even at the Golden Gate, they supported me without saying anything, but the atmosphere changed from yesterday.

 

Some people said that Yeonjeokha seemed to have been eaten by a one-eyed demon.

 

He said no, but Lee Yoo-hyeon also thought to himself, “It might be so.”

 

If it wasn't for that, even if it came out, it should have come out right away.

 

It is true that Mt. Worak is so large that it is divided into inner and outer ridges.

 

However, it was a distance that could be covered in a day or two with a master's new technique like Yeonjeokha.

 

So, if he was alive, there would be no way he would be lost in news for five days.

 

Gong Ji-yu reluctantly nodded at Lee Yoo-hyeon’s request.

 

"okay. Let's just wait until today. You know that Yeon Dae-hyeop risked his life in the beginning of Yeongji. You must be unaware of the passage of time while looking for Yeongji Seoncho.”

 

“Even if it could be done in a day or two, I don’t think it would be five days. Yeondaehyeop has left for another place... … .”

 

Lee Yoo-hyeon secretly looked at Gong Ji-yu.

 

I wanted to say, ‘I feel like I was attacked by a demon with a single eye,’ but he couldn’t come out of his mouth.

 

He vaguely knew what the sister-in-law thought of him.

 

“What are you looking at? If you have something to say, say it.”

 

“No, are you really going tomorrow? Please tell me clearly. I have something to prepare.”

 

"okay. let's go, go Five days in this cold is a long wait.”

 

“Good idea.”

 

Lee Yoo-hyun, who jumped up, put some ice in the pot.

 

Then, when the water in the pot boils, he pours in a handful of rice, frozen vegetables, and dried herbs.

 

It is around the time that the traditional chowder of Suyakju is completed.

 

Gong Ji-yu, who had been watching Worak Mountain endlessly, got up from his seat.

 

"It's a great jeokha!"

 

Lee Yoo-hyeon, who was stirring porridge with a ladle, lifted his head in surprise.

 

The people who trudged from far away really did match.

 

Gong Ji-yu ran towards Yeonjeok-ha in a month.

 

“jeokha!”

 

In response to her cry, Yeon Jeok-ha weakly waved his hand.

 

Gong Ji-yu, who had reached the bottom of the jeokha, examined him carefully from head to toe.

 

I wonder if he came out late because he was seriously injured in a fight with a one-eyed demon.

 

However, there were no visible injuries on the outside.

 

“Are you hurt anywhere?”

 

"No."

 

“Why did you come out so late? Do you know that five days have passed since you entered the mountain?”

 

“Ah, yes.”

 

Yeonjeokha nodded his head with a lukewarm face.

 

He didn't even know that it would take this long to find the snowy mountain in Woraksan.

 

“Are you late because of the one-eyed demon?”

 

“Yeah, that’s right.”

 

“I knew I would! You're so late to avoid the poison-eyed demon!”

 

Gong Ji-yu shouted with a triumphant face.

 

She had done that several times before, so she had no doubts.

 

“You didn’t fight a one-eyed demon, did you?”

 

"once?"

 

"ah! you fought So how did it go?”

 

In the meantime, she reached the camp before she knew it.

 

Before Yeon Jeok-ha could answer, Yu-hyeon Yoo-hyeon hurriedly approached holding a ladle—hot steam rising.

 

“jeokha! Are you very late? What about meals?”

 

“I have to eat. I think I will die of hunger.”

 

For five days, Yeonjeokha's gaze did not leave the caldron after wandering between inner and outer music.

 

Lee Yoo-hyeon hurriedly poured the porridge into a bowl and handed it out to Yeon Jeok-ha.

 

It is time for him to hold a bowl of hot porridge and wait for it to cool down.

 

Gong Ji-yu sat down next to him and asked again.

 

“How did the fight with the one-eyed demon go?”

 

“I was reconciled.”

 

“… … .”

 

Gong Ji-yu and Lee Yoo-hyeon blinked their eyes at the unexpected answer.

 

Are you reconciling with the monster?

 

I don't know what kind of ghost washing and forgetting sound it is.

 

Gongji Yu, who had barely come to her senses, tilted her head.

 

“Are you angry? Didn't I hear that wrong?"

 

“Reconciliation is right. I didn't expect much, but surprisingly, the words worked well.”

 

“Did you communicate well with the monsters?”

 

Gong Ji-yu glanced at the jeokha.

 

She said she had never had a conversation with a single-eyed deaf before, she said.

 

Did she say that Dok-an Gwi-ma's name was originally 'Hwa-pung'?

 

“Yeah, just like that.”

 

"So, you said you wouldn't attack people anymore?"

 

“I will.”

 

"really? Then, can I enter Naeak from now on?”

 

Gong Ji-yu's eyes twinkled.

 

The outside school was too crowded.

 

It is because even those who should have gone to Naeak in the past are flocking to Outerak.

 

“That’s a bit… … .”

 

Lee Yoo-hyun intervened in Yeon Jeok-ha’s rather negative reaction.

 

“Isn’t it that far yet?”

 

“You don’t have a single ear.”

 

"ah!"

 

That one word was enough.

 

Gong Ji-yu and Lee Yu-hyeon no longer showed interest in entering and exiting Naeak.

 

After having lunch with chowder, Yeon Jeok-ha and his party immediately left the Worak Mountain campsite.

 

 

 

***

 

 

 

Saneum County.

 

Hyeoncheonmun.

 

 

 

Yushicho (5 p.m.).

 

Around dusk, Yeon Jeok-ha and his party arrived at Hyeoncheonmun Gate.

 

It was when Yeon Jeok-ha and his party had just entered the yard.

 

As if they had received the call from the gatekeeper, Hyeon-cheon Munju So-cheon-wu and his commander hurriedly approached.

 

As soon as So Chun-wu's eyes met Yeon Jeok-ha, he spoke in a resentful tone.

 

“Yeon Dae-hyeop, no, why did you come so late? I thought I was going to lose my eyes while waiting.”

 

“Me?”

 

It was difficult to understand So Chun-wu's words.

 

There was no reason for him to wait so anxiously for himself.

 

“Five days ago, a person from Cheonjimun visited. He was angry about what happened in Unmun County. He made the sluggish elder into a cripple and hurt his disciples.”
