Chronicles Of The Martial God’s Return

Episode 69

Nangongcheon was walking down Yueyang Street holding Dan Xiaomi’s hand. Because he was wearing a hat to hide his face, no one could tell that he was Geomhwang.

‘Why me?’ Namgungcheon let out a short moan.

It was Dan Woo-hyeon’s usual role to take Dan So-mi to and from school.

But this morning, he suddenly asked me to do this, and as a foodie, I had no choice but to accept it.

But it didn’t mean I felt bad.

Dansomi was a child who felt like a granddaughter.

In fact, Namgoong Sohye was treating me several times better than when I was young.

Namgung-cheon was such an affectionate and cute child, and his behavior was so pretty that he even gave her a kiss, which he didn’t usually do.

However, I didn’t like doing what Dan Woo-hyeon told me to do.

“Hehe, how are you? “Do you like it?”

“yes! “It’s really nice to come out with grandpa!”

Dansomi smiled brightly and nodded. It was common to see Dan Woo-hyeon and Ak-yang, but it was my first time with Nam Gung-cheon.

Therefore, Dansomi was very excited.

The two young and old began looking around.

I went to the place where I usually buy sweets, visited each of the street stalls lined up, and took some for lunch.

Only when their stomachs were full did they stop eating something.

“Uh… I’m really full.”

“…Somi too.”

I sat down in a place where not many people go and rubbed my stomach. Because I ate so much, my stomach was so swollen that it felt like it was about to burst.

It doesn’t seem like anything more will fit in.

“Oh, come to think of it, there’s something interesting over there.”

At that time, Dan So-mi suddenly stood up, led Nam Gung-cheon, and ran towards a certain place.

Following Somi, who was running vigorously, we arrived at a place that sold masks.

There were quite a few strange masks.

“Is this fun?” Dan Somi quickly nodded. He wore a mask made in the shape of a white tiger and said, Wow! He made a sound.

Namgung-cheon smiled happily at the sight, which was not scary at all and was just cute.

“here! “Try this!”

Eventually, Dansomi handed over a mask.

The mask, which is entirely painted white and has no designs on it, looks rather sharp.

But the price was considerable.

Just one hermit.

I thought the price was ridiculously high for something that didn’t even have a pattern on it.

I wondered what on earth this was.

“What is this modeled after?”

Namgung-cheon asked the store owner.

The store owner smiled awkwardly and pointed to a certain place.

“Do you see over there? “It’s a place where puppet shows take place…”

“It looks like that.”

“It’s the mask of the main character that appears there. It is very popular with children. “He is a hero called the Gentleman’s Sword.”

“Gentleman… sword’?”

Is it possible that such a great nickname is only used for a puppet show? Namgungcheon was having a lot of fun, so he smiled and tried on the mask.

The mask wasn’t as bad as it looked.

The fit was also quite good.

When one child looked at Nam Gung-cheon wearing a mask and shouted, ‘It’s a gentleman’s sword!’, a strange thing happened where children from all around looked at him.

The moment Namgung-cheon took off his mask and was about to put it down, he saw Dan So-mi’s face beside him, giving her bright eyes.

It’s that much money for Eunja, but since I got it from Woohyun, it’s not a problem, but isn’t it too expensive for just one mask?

“Grandpa, you look good on me! very!”

Namgung-cheon broke into a cold sweat at the sound of anticipation.

‘This is why they say that children’s business is a lucrative business. haha.’

For the first time, Namgungcheon was offended by merchants.

Returning to the manor, Nam Gung-cheon felt Dan Yu-hyeon’s gaze. As he was spending leisurely time sitting in the pavilion in the yard, he looked at Namgungcheon and smiled strangely.

“I finally bought it for you.”

“Did you know?”

“The only thing that Somi wanted was to have it.”

Although he didn’t show it, it was evident in his facial expression.

Every time I passed by a place where puppet shows were being performed and every time I passed by a mask vendor nearby, my eyes always went to those masks.

But I didn’t buy it on purpose.

Children’s preferred toys naturally change over time, and they were reluctant to pay a high price for something made of cheap materials.

With that money, I could have bought Dansomi more delicious food and dressed her in nicer clothes.

Of course, it wasn’t because I felt like a small hermit was a waste.

“I hope I get what I want.”

“Oh… no! Somi doesn’t like this kind of thing! “This is my grandfather’s.”

In a hurry, Somi waved her hand and handed the mask to Namgungcheon. It wasn’t really a lie.

Although I wanted it so badly, I wore it on my face and played with it as much as I could on the way from Akyang to here.

But it wasn’t much fun.

Wearing a mask doesn’t make you as strong as the Gentleman’s Sword, and since it covers your face, the frustration was indescribable.

It was now a useless item.

It’s only been about an hour since I bought the mask.

Dan Woo-hyeon smiled awkwardly and Nam Gung-cheon cleared his throat. It certainly seemed like he was tired of playing with masks.

“Well… Then Somi, I’ll go inside and study.”

Dansomi

entered the room with an awkward expression on her face.

I glanced back and felt regretful about the mask for a moment, but when I actually got it in my hand, I realized that it was useless, so I quickly let go of the regret.

“I realize once again that raising a child is difficult. “Hehe heh.”

Namgung-cheon sat next to Dan Woo-hyeon with a bright smile on his face.

Although I tried to raise my children, a nanny watched them most of the time when they were young, and as they grew little by little, they only trained them harshly, but with the exception of Somi, they never played with them.

Therefore, for Nam Gung-cheon, spending time with Dan So-mi was something quite different and it was his first time experiencing it.

In the past, whenever Nam Gong-cheon heard people complaining about how difficult it was to raise a child, it was not easy for him to understand it.

“Now that I think about it, you… do you know a little about Sangong poison?”

Namgung-cheon said something he had not bothered to ask until now. Ever since I lost the last match, I still felt a bit uncomfortable about dealing with Dan Woo-hyeon.

It was so bad that I couldn’t even talk about it properly.

But now, thanks to Dansomi, the atmosphere was somewhat more comfortable, so I asked what I had been curious about from a long time ago.

Since Dan Woo-hyeon had a mysterious side, I thought he might know about Sanggongdog.

“Is someone of Geomhwang’s level asking me that?”

“Hehe, this old man lived his life thinking he knew everything, but when things actually happened, it turns out that wasn’t the case. And didn’t you say it too? There is no age or gender in teaching. “Don’t you think you might know something this old man doesn’t?”

“haha.”

Dan Woo-hyeon burst into laughter.

He was such a sly old man that he used the same story he told last time.

Although his skills are mediocre, it appears that the years he has spent so far have not been in vain.

Dan Woo-hyeon sighed softly and opened his mouth.

“It’s a mountain communist poison… I know it well.”

Soon he burst into laughter.

It was just over a thousand years ago that Sangongdog first began to appear in the central plains.

It was a time when he was showing off his celestial power by cutting down countless warriors.

Sanggongdog was created based on the idea that numerous martial artists would be able to kill Danwoo Hyeon if they just dissipated his fearsome power.

“You mean you don’t know much about it?”

“Of course. “I’ve been through it a few times.”

“……?!”

Namgung-cheon looked at Woo-hyeon Dan with a surprised expression.

It was normal for a person to not have even a single point of attack power left if they were attacked by mountain attack poison.

Just like Namgungcheon today. However, Dan Woo-hyeon seemed to have a way to decode it, as he still possessed the power in his body.

Suddenly, Namgungcheon’s heart began to beat violently.

I thought that maybe I could regain my full strength.

gulp-!

He swallowed dry saliva and stretched out his trembling hand to grab Dan Woo-hyeon’s hand. He looked at Dan Woo-hyeon and gave him a desperate look.

“Let me know! A way to make an antidote!”

“An antidote?”

Dan Woohyun thought for a moment.

The manufacturing method of Sangong poison was indeed difficult.

In fact, the method of making it was so secret that even Dan Woo-hyeon did not know properly, and although the people who made it were caught one by one and punished, they were unable to find out everything because they only knew part of the method.

Basically, an antidote is to identify the ingredients of the poison or find out how to manufacture it and create an ingredient that overcomes it.

But there was nothing like that in Sangongdog.

It is an absurd poison just because it disrupts public power. How can one get rid of an invisible force?

The minds of those who created it were extraordinary.

‘Well, they were blood demons, so it was worth it.’

It was the Blood Demon God Church that gave birth to Sangongdog.

At that time, Danwoohyeon and the Blood Demon Church were in the midst of a bloody fight, and the Blood Demon Church needed to create something to somehow block the martial arts.

Dan Woo-hyeon, who was addicted to

Sangong poison, was born in this way and was chased by them for over two months and came close to death several times.

There have been many crises since I was born, but this was the first time I was so close to death.

Nevertheless, what was the reason for overcoming the communist dictatorship?

Everything created by man had a weakness.

“Do you think that the mountain communist poison can actually disrupt all the communist powers?”

“…That’s true.”

“No. “Sangongdog blocks the flow of gongpower and prevents it from moving.”

“…i”

“In other words, your gong power still remains in your body, but the mountain gong poison blocking the flow is so strong that your gong power cannot overcome it.”

“So… So you can fix it

?”

Dan Woohyun nodded.

It’s not an easy task, but it can be done. Although it is assumed that he has the mental strength to do so, if he is at the level of Geomhwang, he will be able to regain his strength in a matter of months or years.

“If the flow path is blocked, the best thing to do is to make a hole there. “If there is even a single hole in the needle, what is inside will break down and come pouring out.”

Namgungcheon

couldn’t understand what he was talking about.

The acid poison and energy are not visible to the eye, but remain in the body. Does making a hole there mean stabbing the Danjeon with a knife?

If you do that, not only will you lose your energy, but you will also lose your Danjeon.

It wasn’t a Zen question, but it seemed clear that it had some meaning, but Namgung-cheon couldn’t understand it at all.

“If you don’t know the meaning, think about it carefully.”

I looked at Dan Woo-hyeon, who stood up from his seat. Instead of providing an answer, it only made things more complicated. However, since these are the words of a person who has personally experienced industrial poisoning, it is impossible to listen to them in vain.

Namgung-cheon was lost in thought, breaking into a cold sweat.

Quadang-!

At that time, the front door opened without hesitation.

“ruler… Lord Jang-!”

Jang Sam-tae was running towards me, panting heavily.

He raised his voice while holding something in one hand, and Namgung-cheon and

Dan Woo-hyeon frowned at the noise.
