episode_0149

The ghost land was purified and nothing special happened.

Train and work as usual.

Sometimes Hongryeon comes down and drinks tea with her.

Chaejin was grumbling, so we spent some time drinking together.

When a few days passed like that.

Yohwan is back.

“Oh my. I’m here.”

“Hey, master!”

It came earlier than expected.

I thought it would take a few more days. After giving a cursory greeting to the Jeomsoi who received his luggage, Yohwan handed me a bundle.

“What?”

“Amifa asked me to tell you this?”

I unpacked the bundle. Diamond Sutra, Heart Sutra. Avalokitesvara Sutra, Avalokitesvara Penis…

They were all blasphemies.

“What are you asking me to do about this?”

“They said you should use it while studying.”

Well, it is good to read Buddhist scriptures because it helps strengthen your mind.

I haven’t even finished reading what I got last time, so you’re giving me this again?

“The rumor about you spread all over Amifa.”

“Guardian, is this a rumor?”

Chae-jin, who was in the backyard, came in after hearing that Yo-hwan had arrived. Yohwan smiled at her and took out a book from his arms and held it out.

“Chaeryun asked me to tell you.”

“Why is she…”

Chaejin frowned after receiving the letter.

“What does it say?”

“Let’s have a round as soon as we get back.”

“Hahaha… Then you’ll have to train hard.”

It’s really Chaeryeon-like. I never thought I would send out a challenge like this. After patting Chaejin on the back, who was sighing, I looked at Yohwan and asked.

“Please finish what you said before. Why did my rumor spread?”

“You in Amipa now. It’s almost like a living fire.”

“…Me?”

“Yes. you. Helping people without expecting anything in return. Also, a person who uses his personal wealth to save others. Those who do not boast about it there. Hong Seong-moon’s disciples and Yoo Jeong praised him.”

“It’s not wrong, right?”

“Wrong. Because I want something and I’m trying to get it. It’s difficult to think of him as a simple lover.”

“Well, not only that, but he also mentioned what he did in the Murim Alliance.”

What did I do in the Murim League?

I looked at Chaejin and she also tilted her head.

“You said you mediated between the Protection Bureau and the Inspection Department and helped find the secret area of the Demonic Cult?”

“Ah.”

“Anyway, your name has become quite high in the political faction because of that.”

“Hmm…”

I crossed my arms and thought. My name has been raised within the political faction.

If you think about it, there really wasn’t any problem.

From the beginning, it was already predicted that if you follow the scenario, your reputation will increase. There was no particular problem with the name becoming known within the political faction.

And since his reputation wasn’t raised by martial arts, there wouldn’t be people coming to pick a fight.

No, in some ways it is more beneficial? As my name rises, the number of crazy people who want to fight in my room will decrease.

“That’s a good thing.”

I nodded, and Yohwan chuckled.

“By the way, did you do well in your trip to Amipa?”

“Hmm. That’s kind of it.”

I guess I passed down the Immortal Treasure to Yujeong properly. I looked at Yohwan, and she calmly received my gaze.

“Do you have something to say?”

“No. I wonder if the ban on martial arts has been lifted.”

“Haha. What is martial arts at this age? By the way, did anything special happen while I was away?”

Chaejin smiled brightly, and Yohwan whistled. It seems like there is some kind of conversation between the two just with their eyes.

“Nothing special happened. You’ll be tired, so take a break today and start working tomorrow.”

“Is that possible? Ugh. Because Amipa is not available, all the ingredients are grass-fed and the spices are limited, so it doesn’t taste good. I will start working right away from today.”

Perhaps because she served as the royal palace queen, she was quite serious about cooking. She patted Chaejin on the back and told her to have a drink later in the evening and went straight into the kitchen.

“I’m going to be busy starting today.”

“That’s right.”

Anyway, Yohwan’s cuisine is no different from the specialty of Island Flower Village.

There will be quite a few people who will come and visit after hearing the news of her return.

As expected, there were quite a few customers today. Thanks to this, sales also increased a lot.

I finished organizing today’s books and pulled out the papers to do other things.

-smart.

Then I hear a knock on the window. I opened the door right away, and the mailman standing there handed me a letter.

“You must have had a hard time during the night.”

“Haha. It can’t be helped. Then I’ll leave.”

Uchemundo, who always comes, hands over the letter and leaves. When I saw him walking away, I checked the four letters in my hand.

The first letter was a letter sent from the Cheonghoe Sangdan.

Let’s see…

There was nothing special about it and it was just a matter of seeing each other sometime soon. Still, I was planning to visit once, so I put the book aside and picked up the next book.

huh?

This…

It was a letter sent by Sayun.

I immediately opened the letter.

Bohyeon Bodhisattva is said to be a Bodhisattva who is in charge of the truth of Buddhism and the virtue of practice.

And, although Amipa is a Buddhist sect that worships the Buddha, it is a sect that mainly worships Bodhisattva Bodhisattva, so it is said to be a place where there are many scholars and monks who want to pursue the truth.

Is that why? When I arrived at Amipa, my first feeling was that I was at a school rather than a martial arts sect.

The last time I went to a temple was a long time ago, before I met Master. The temple I visited back then was not this quiet or calm.

Rather than showing mercy and caring for the poor, they seemed more self-righteous and seemed to just focus on their own performance.

But Amifa was different. Although this is a prestigious political school, it is quiet, calm, and not flashy.

Actually, the temple may not be fancy. Maybe that’s why my first feeling after seeing Amifa was almost the same as the feeling I had when I first came to Hongseongmun.

Maybe that’s why the training at Amipa was similar.

A morning at Hongseongmun begins with greeting the monks and physical training, but Amipa’s morning begins with prayer.

Is this because it is a place to learn Buddhist martial arts that values the static aspect rather than the dynamic aspect?

But it wasn’t bad either. Because Master always said that we must train our mind.

Of course, I don’t think that just by praying to Buddha everything will work out fine.

Still, praying means making a wish, and making a wish means trying to make your wish come true.

In some ways, it doesn’t seem to be much different from Hong Seong-moon’s teachings, which hope to protect everyone, so I had no complaints.

ah. If this continues, I think we’ll only be talking about training. Actually, I had a lot of things I wanted to say to you.

Have you been to Amisan? Amisan Mountain has quite beautiful scenery and many places to see.

Not only monks but also student monks told us many interesting stories.

There is a story that a long time ago, a woodcutter who stopped by Mt. Amisan met and talked with a monk from Mt. Amisan, and then attained enlightenment and ascended to heaven…

eww. When I try to explain it in writing, it doesn’t seem to be any fun.

When I heard from the monk, Sister Yu-hee and I laughed together.

It is said that people must also learn how to speak. Since I came to Amipah, I need to learn how to speak from the monk.

And I hope that what I learn will increase my wisdom. As your wisdom increases, your vocabulary increases, and as your vocabulary increases, you will be able to write better letters to send to your uncle.

oh. It’s already time to practice. mister. I’ll write a letter again! Until then, stay healthy!

P.s.

The scenery of Amisan Mountain is beautiful, but the scenery of Hongseong Mountain is even more beautiful. If you really want to see mountains, please come to Hongseongsan Mountain!

I smiled as I read Sayun’s letter. You promote Hongseongsan Mountain while training at Amisan Mountain.

I looked at Hongseong Mountain through the window. It would be fair to say that Hongseong Mountain, with its subtly red glow under the moonlight, was definitely beautiful.

Well… that’s it.

Didn’t the letter I sent arrive? Seeing as there was no story related to it, I guess the timing wasn’t right.

Still, given Hongryeon’s personality, I think she’ll send it to Sayun rather than quietly keep it… Then, I guess I’ll have to make plans for the next letter.

I folded Sayun’s letter neatly and put it in the safe.

You said Sayoon would return around spring, right?

Unlike the dynamic training of Hong Seong-moon, I am looking forward to seeing how much Sayun will grow and return after going through the static training of Amipa.

I put the pipe in my mouth and lit it.

Anyway, Sayun seems to be training without any problems at Amipa…

The rest is up to me.

ruler. Then shall we look at the next book?

The last letter was from the Murim Alliance.

This is a letter sent by a person named Zhuge Zhongmo from the military department of the Murim League. I don’t know what to do. He was the one who issued summons during events related to the Murim Alliance.

I opened the letter.

This is my first time greeting you, and I apologize for sending you this letter.

He is said to be Zhuge Jungmo of the Murim Alliance military department.

I would like to send you a gift to thank you for mediating between the Ministry of Inspection and the Ministry of Justice last time. Please do not refuse.

Even though it’s a gift, it probably isn’t anything special.

And to be precise, it would be more correct to say that he is coming to Hongseongmun rather than coming to see me.

I thought as I tapped the letter.

The reason the Murim Alliance is looking for Hong Seong-moon is probably because of the fight between the Demon Cult and the Iron Blood Order.

At that time, they realized their danger and hoped that Hong Seong-moon, who had a strong power in the martial arts, would join the martial arts alliance.

You’ll also want to hear the story about the Iron Blood Order that was defeated at Hongseongmun.

Then who is coming…

There are about two people expected.

The first is Chu Yeong, the deputy head of the Murim Alliance’s inspection department. Based on your connection with Hongryeon, you can try to talk to Hong Seong-moon…

The second is probably Namgung Seongyul. Since he has traces of the Heavenly Demon, he will try to talk to Hong Seong-moon by showing it off.

-Knock knock.

Then I heard a knock on the window. I got up, opened the window, and smiled when I saw a woman looking up from the backyard.

A woman holding a book in her hand.

I said with a smile as I spotted a beautiful woman with navy blue hair standing there awkwardly.

“It’s been a while.”

“Uh… Oh, it’s been a long time.”

It was a swordsman.

When she saw me, she smiled brightly, jumped up to my window, and showed me the document she was holding.

“…They say the Murim Alliance will be visiting soon. There is something I would like to discuss regarding that. Um… is the time okay?”

I nodded as I looked at her hesitantly asking me.

I also had a story I wanted to tell, so it worked out well.
