The Grand Mudang Saga [Path of the Shaman]

Episode 17

Military Gong (Martial Arts).

If you say it looks like it’s a systematic study of nothingness, simply put, it’s just a skill to win a fight.

In other words, this martial art has been utilized and developed in various ways to use simple punches and kicks effectively at the right time.

Whether it is a trivial quarrel between individuals or a war of fate between nations, the ultimate goal is to overwhelm others and take what they have more easily and completely.

There are many people who practice justice and whatever, but they are nothing more than realizing their ideals through force.

No matter what kind of pretentious words are added, the truth is obvious in the end.

Power is justice.

Under this simple and clear logic, those who practice martial arts train their mind and body, learn the form, and strive for art.

From the basics to the extreme.

How can I put into words all of that difficult time that was only a fight with myself?

However, not everyone’s training method is the same.

How we split our training time is different, and how we achieve success with what kind of training is different.

Everyone uses a method that suits them individually.

Each one…

each one…

such a dog! No matter how different it is, this is not it!

Unyeon cried bitterly inwardly.

No matter how much individual tastes and aptitudes are respected, at least at this moment, the way fate is trained (?) is absolutely not normal.

Is this training! It’s training!

No one in the world would train in this way!

Wow!

It’s empty and empty.

Un-Yeon, who bounced three or four pieces from his fist dug deep into his side, fell limp as he rolled on the ground against his will.

“Gee uh…”

A moan that I had never heard before burst out.

I thought my spine would explode.

Digging into a square… No, I don’t know if it’s a square. I have no idea where the fist is flying from.

I was hit so hard that at some point I instinctively avoided it, and even while dodging, I was hit… If I didn’t avoid it, of course I got hit again…

“Turn it off.”

I grit my teeth and try to endure it…. Fuck, it really hurts.

There was a guy at the place where he barely touched the ground and raised his head.

Jimmu-ga smiles as he raises his fist proudly and spins it round and round.

I get goosebumps at the death god-like appearance.

I just found out

Why do Hwangsin and the children’s expressions look so drawn whenever that kid smiles and shows his fangs?

“What is it already over? When the cub finally got used to the black dragon fight, he said he got hit several times.”

“…”

Hey, that’s right.

I was so beaten to death!

“Tsk tsk, they say I managed to hold on well in the Oryong Palace, but it’s completely nonsense. It’s because my stamina is so weak.”

“…ha ha ha.”

An airy laugh flowed from Un-yeon’s mouth as she drooped the corners of her eyes and sarcasticly, as if she was very disappointed.

If you’re beaten three days and nights and you stand still, is that a person?

Even you, a chimp fan, don’t look like a human bastard…?

“What are you going to do?”

“….”

Three days and three nights, in other words, three days and three nights.

During that time, Un-yeon practiced one of the boxing techniques called Black Dragon Brawl only with her own strength.

details? flow of energy? The use of fists and feet and an efficient pitch? There was no such thing in the first place.

His teachings are based only on practical senses without hyungs or alcohol, so if you see it right, you will automatically know it?

If you get hit, avoid it, and if you avoid it, you will naturally learn how to attack, so keep getting hit?

If the guy who says he’s teaching has a mouth, he has to say it. Why are you farting?

“Oh, it’s just Yari. If you twist me, don’t look at me. Stand up and stretch out your fists one more time. That’s the black dragon brawl.”

“….”

The kid is really….

It’s not that cheesy. I don’t know if there was some emotion, but I just saw it.

Yun-yeon hurriedly lowered her eyes and shed tears inwardly.

The expression on his face as he looked at himself pitifully, revealing his ghastly fangs, was really, really scary.

“Looking at this, I won’t be able to train anymore.”

“…”

Jinmu let out a sigh as he watched the fate crackling on the ground.

A ray of life bloomed in Un-yeon’s pupils, which had been turned off in a blink of an eye.

Wait a minute. What do you mean?

Maybe today’s training is over?

It was an instant for the suddenly sprouted hope to grow and bloom.

Yun-yeon opened her bloodshot eyes, glistening with anticipation, as she stared at Jin-mu’s mouth.

Declare a break.

Even if I’m right now, my eyes are about to close.

If you stop, you’ve done enough, so at least take a deep breath and say that!

Then I’ll erase one stroke… no, two strokes from your name in the killing book. Please… please…

“For now, if I continue to practice, my achievement will drop significantly.”

“….”

Gulp.

Un-yeon, who was anxious, swallowed dry saliva without even realizing it.

Rest is definitely the word. It is certainly!

No matter how much a monster is in the shape of a human, wouldn’t there be a bit of pity in a corner of the heart?

Un-yeon, who started to snort vigorously, made the most pitiful expression she could and focused on the shape of Jin-mu’s mouth and opened her ears wide.

And finally…

“God!”

“Yes, Lord.”

“About how long until the volcano?”

“Eh, since this is the north of Dali, it’s roughly a hundred li to Huayin County.”

“One hundred li… um. It’s a long-awaited volcano, so before entering Hwaeum-hyeon, wouldn’t it be better to stop by a nearby village and rest?”

“What is it? It’s been a while, and I’m a shaman disciple, but I can’t go on like that, so I think I’ll have to change my clothes.”

“Hmm.”

At Hwangshin’s words, Jinmu looked down at Unyeon.

Certainly… after rolling it so much, it became a mess to the point where I couldn’t tell if it was black or soil, and it was pretty embarrassing to see that it was torn in places.

yes god is right I’m a shaman master and second disciple of Ohryonggung, but I can’t go on like this.

You should wear a proud shaman’s apparel with the brilliant Taegeuk pattern on it.

“Um, but it’s okay to rest anywhere, isn’t there a nice place?”

“If it’s a good place… It’s in Sapa’s territory, but what about Jucheon?”

“Shucheon (酒泉)? Isn’t that the Three Gates? The chord is right in front of you, but isn’t it going too fast?”

“Yes, it is twenty li. Above all, the taste of alcohol is amazing.”

“huh? okay?”

“yes. Because the spring water is good, each sake brewed tastes good. It is said that even Li Bai and Du Fu praised him in the past.”

“It’s a mouth-watering place.”

Jinmu was troubled by the tempting words.

The fact that it was Sapa’s territory had nothing to do with it.

It is only for the warriors of Jeongsama that the area or boundary is to be considered, because for Jinmu, it is just a midfielder here or there.

It’s just that I have to go back a little… What does it matter?

I like the taste of alcohol.

“good! let’s go. We will rest there tonight.”

“yes.”

After the rain, Yun-yeon looked at Jin-mu and Hwang-sin alternately at the good news like sunlight.

take a break

The training that seemed like hell was no different from the end.

I was so happy… Besides, when I said that I was going to have a drink, my mouth was watering and my body flinched.

You can’t lie down like this. I have to work hard to follow through.

cancer! gotta go!

When Yun-yeon managed to pull herself up, Jin-mu slowly approached and stretched out her arms.

huh? what?

There’s no way I’ll help this demon-like person when he’s having a hard time

…

“…”

Heck! to worry?

Originally, after training, did you return from a monster to a human?

Unyeon raised her trembling eyes from the overflowing emotion and looked up at Jinmu.

Damn it… I was beaten so badly, how could I be so grateful for this fleeting favor?

Well, it was tiring.

I was beaten so badly that my body and mind were all in tatters.

But only twenty miles? It’s not even something to worry about.

You can rest if you go, of course it’s okay.

“yes!”

When Yun-yeon squeezed out the energy she had been sucking on and answered vigorously, Jinmu smiled and said,

“…then burn your shoulder.”

“…yes?”

“Burn it. You can’t just walk blindly.”

“yes? Just make sure to rest…”

“Who? I? when?”

“….”

Oh, I never said that….

“Your stamina is too weak. So, when you move, you should also do physical training. So, won’t you be able to hold out a little longer in the next training session?”

“…”

“What are you doing? Come on, burn it.”

“Ah yes…”

I couldn’t ignore it any longer as he pressed me with a furrowed brow.

Damn sajo bastard…

He wasn’t the one to turn into a human in the first place.

It was clear that sympathy had been thrown as dog food.

yes let’s do it!

What’s so different about carrying a person on their shoulders? If you go twenty miles, you will rest.

Unyeon endured the spasms of the muscles of his whole body and managed to stand up, and Jinmu rode on top of his neck.

Sigh!

“Nuh-heo-eok…!”

Un-yeon, who made a strange noise at the enormous weight she felt at the moment, quickly bit her molars vigorously and stood up with all her strength.

“Let’s go!”

Signaled by Jinmu’s powerful cry, the party started walking toward Jucheon.

Except for luck…

“What are you doing? Aren’t you going?”

“I have to go… but this is…”

Is it because my body is too tired?

I just put a person on my shoulder, but my whole body felt like it was going to be squeezed.

The eyes feel like they’re going to pop out at any moment, and the tightly closed teeth dig into the gums… It feels like you’re carrying a heavy stone on your back.

In addition, your feet are… well?

“….”

Why are your feet digging into the ground?

Un-yeon, who was in confusion, was unable to take a single step and was absent-minded, but Jin-mu said nonchalantly.

“I just added about 100 jin.”

“…”

One hundred… Keun?

“Originally, I thought about having them lift a wooden pole, but no matter how much I think about it, I thought it would be too unkind.”

“…”

“It’s okay. You don’t have to be so grateful. If you want to add just 100 pounds to your weight, you have to manage your energy very carefully, but it’s that much effort when you’re supposed to teach Yi Wangjisa.”

“…”

Ah, I got it.

Our sajo-nim was operating a thousand-year-old… no, a hundred-year-old in return for raising his physical strength.

Afraid to disapprove of wooden poles, he delicately operated his energy…

Haha, thank you. I shed tears because I am grateful like a dog.

But that’s a hundred pounds!

If you operate Mukryonggi!

“I’m just saying this just in case, but if you get caught using your inner energy, you’ll die.”

…pup.

Whoops!

Yun-yeon gritted her teeth and moved on.

puffy puffy

Making deep footprints on the dirt floor… A whopping 20 li long road…

* * *

“Lord God.”

“huh?”

Upon arriving in Jucheon, Jinmu and his party threw the exhausted Unyeon into the room and had been emptying dozens of bottles of alcohol since early evening.

Hwangshin, who had been giving and receiving while admiring the taste of the alcohol, suddenly pricked up his ears.

“It looks like Unyeon is sneaking out. Shall we follow him?”

“it’s okay. Leave it alone and have a drink.”

“Would it be okay?”

“…”

Jinmu laughed at the words mixed with concern.

Of course it’s fine.

Son Oh-gong must fly on a cloud to be in the Buddha’s palm, and fate must run away to be in the ear of the emperor.

“Have you ever tried a tiger mole?”

“Bumyo?”

“okay.”

“What are you talking about?”

“Originally, when you drive a guy called a tiger, you can’t just surround him on all sides. If you try to kill yourself, it will be difficult to deal with. So always leave a way to escape. No more, no less, just enough to breathe.”

“…hmm.”

“If you want to tighten it, loosen it, and if you want to loosen it, tighten it. If you do that over and over again, you’ll eventually get tired of it and give up later. You can catch it very easily.”

“…ah! Are you referring to the precepts of Yokgeum Gojong?”

Gakchul, who was listening by the side, thumped his knee in admiration, and So Dongbo nodded.

bath tub.

As one of the Thirty Six Commandments, it is a method of gradually entangling the enemy without driving him into a complete predicament to prevent him from making a final stand.

Is it a way to release it when you are tired to catch a big fish and repeat the catch again?

“What is a bath?”

“yes?”

“What kind of nonsense are you talking about beggars in difficult words?”

“…”

“What I said is the tiger-hunting tactic that King Sapaeo and I used in the past.”

“…”

“Well, he’s not even a tiger, let alone a cat, but he shouldn’t push himself to the limit as he’s being trained. Again, it just backfires. Sometimes you have to let go and enjoy it. That’s how they mistakenly believe that there is such a thing as hope.”

Gakchul pouted at Jinmu’s laughter.

That’s the yokgeum gojong…

“Shin-ah.”

“Yes, Lord.”

“I am just listening. If you do something useless, let’s do it then.”

“All right.”

“Now, everyone, have a drink. It tastes better than alcohol.”

“yes. Lord.”

After Jinmu’s gwonju, Hwangsin and the children drenched themselves in proper food and alcohol.

Of course, even in the meantime, Hwangshin’s ears were focused on the movement of fate.

Just as Jinmu said, the sound of Yun-yeon’s footsteps moving hopefully came to my ears.

devil. A guy who runs hard but doesn’t know he’s a flea.

You’ll find out soon.

The

fact that the person who will trample on even that hope now

and turn it into despair is the Gaecheonju.

…Fortunately, there was no movement.

Because he was careful and careful, he got out safely without being caught.

Damn you bastards…

The memory loss performance failed miserably, but this one had to succeed.

He took a slow, deep breath, resolutely determined, and suddenly frowned.

…damn it stings.

I tried my best to pretend I was snoring, but the mucous membrane inside my nose was damaged.

Anyway… After they left, I secretly recovered my physical strength in bed and pondered for a long time.

How should I live in the future?

The shaman, guru, the best in the world, and the killing department, which was filled with people to kill…

The conclusion came really quickly.

Emperor and children? maybe you can reach

If you train like crazy, you might be able to kill them one by one with each break.

shaman? It’s possible.

Of course, it will be a bit difficult for the shaman’s swordsman, but if you put in a lot of effort and add a bit of meanness, you might be able to win somehow.

But it’s not Jinmu.

Having experienced it myself, I know for sure. This bastard is not human.

Follow the path he walked, learn martial arts, become strong with goodwill, and kill him?

jawless sound. It is certain that he will be beaten to death before he reaches great heights while training.

plural? the best in the world?

Let’s just… don’t.

Isn’t that something more precious than life?

Let’s run away like this and hide our identity.

Anyway, even now, I still have the skills to go to a remote corner of the country and make a munpa and live.

Even if it’s not under the world, shouldn’t it be possible to become the first person in it and live with pride?

Yes, there was no regret anyway. I had no intention of taking revenge on my parents or my people in the first place…

Let’s run away, to a place where no one can find us.

On the way back, I went to the clothes shop I saw earlier, picked up clothes that fit me, put them on, and immediately stood out.

“…”

Un-yeon, who made the decision of a lifetime at the crossroads of life or death, gazed at the inn and turned away.

hello cheonha

In the meantime, have fun…fuck you up!

See if I come again!

I won’t even pee on the side of a shaman for the rest of my life!
