Episode 1165:
The village chief said.
“That road opens very rarely in the first place. “I don’t know the exact cycle, but I believe it occurs approximately once every few decades.”
‘Oh, that’s why you were surprised.’
“To begin with, a few decades ago, that place was also an empty land. Then Dobulsa Temple ca in… and the temple was destroyed before the soil attack could even happen.”
“Oh wow…”
I was told that sohow I was holding on to the the of a building made of wood.
‘Anyway, I wonder if all of this has sothing to do with the tearing of Heavenly Qi.’
The old man said.
“So, if you ca in looking for soone… you don’t plan on staying here for a long ti, do you?”
“Yes, but… is there a problem?”
“Strictly speaking, this is a place halfway between the sage world and the real world. Nothing good will happen if you stay in the world for a long ti. Besides… there is a price to pay to stay here.”
“What is it?”
“It requires quite a… big price. Otherwise, you cannot stay here.”
“….”
“To be honest, I would be happy if soone as heavenly as you lived here. However, it is difficult to recomnd it because of the cost.”
cost.
Sima Xuan asked.
“I heard people talking about sacrifice and all that, and it seed like there was so connection. So, chief, what is the price?”
At those words, the village chief smiled sadly.
“As expected, you’re quick-witted… It looks like you’ve already reached most of the answers after just having a short drink. “Do you want confirmation from ?”
“….”
Jin Tianxi, Tianwu, and Sima Xuan briefly exchanged glances with each other.
“yes. Because it is most certain to hear it from the mouth of the person concerned. And we may have misunderstood.”
“No. You guessed it right. You have to sacrifice people. “You have to make sacrifices for your family… with a strong determination of your own will.”
Own will?
Firm determination?
Jin Cheonhee’s face was as hard as stone.
“Oh.”
After all, there are no fairy tales?
* * *
After talking with the village chief.
The three brothers lay side by side in the bedroom.
I had been lying down on the floor with a blanket spread out for a long ti.
Sima Hyun said.
“Hyung, are you sleeping?”
Jin Cheon-hee answered.
“no. “I still have a lot to think about because my head is spinning.”
Cheonwoo said.
“surely. “It was an unbelievable story.”
“huh.”
What the village chief said was to explain how this dreamy fairy tale works.
It was the sa with Snow White.
In order for this fairy tale to co true, an incompetent father must bring in a stepmother to the feudal monarchy.
It should be a situation where no one can object even though the stepmother is harassing her daughter.
I can’t tell whether my stepmother is particularly interested in running the governnt or not.
The princess was kicked out just because she was the prettiest, so it must be a world without any welfare facilities.
And the princess has to take care of seven dwarves, which is not the amount of work an ordinary human woman can handle on her own.
There is no talk of treatnt such as salary.
They provided a place for to stay?
But the princess is too kind to discuss labor rights, so we continue to work together.
Finally, you have to eat the poisoned apple.
I’m a little worried about whether the prince who kisses a corpse is really sane.
Anyway, that’s how a fairy tale is established.
At least the two in the book can live happily ever after.
A similar process was needed to obtain a fairy tale called Dowonhyang.
first of all.
‘In order to stay in Taowonhyang, one of the blood relatives must sacrifice themselves of their own will and offer it as a sacrifice.’
Just as the princess went through hardships before living happily ever after.
There are similar hardships here too.
I just want a more realistic price.
If you go to the huge peach tree in the center of the village and say that you will sacrifice yourself for your family, you will die and beco fertilizer for the peach tree.
‘They say that in return for the nutrients, peach fruits will grow.’
If you share this with your family, you will live long and healthy.
That is a ritual that has been practiced here in Dowonhyang for generations.
‘What if no one sacrifices anything?’
You will automatically be pushed out of this Taowonhyang.
And they also lose their mories of Dowonhyang…
-This is the last refuge of the civilians.
To enter this paradise. Soone has to sacrifice.
‘The good news is that those born in Dowonhyang do not have to make such sacrifices…’
Since few children are born, it is maintained by periodically bringing in outsiders.
‘So you wanted an aphrodisiac?’
No, it could just be because I’m tired at night.
‘Is this a different form of heaven than the Rakshasa era? This is….’
He sacrifices himself to save his family and creates a place for his family in Dowonhyang.
Outside, famine, war, and pestilence are rampant.
In order to live, soone in the family must beco one with the peach tree.
-There should not be any hesitation about sacrifice. Then the peach tree won’t eat him.
-Because of suffering from the Lord, suffering from pestilence, and suffering from poverty. It is a place where those who run away and have nowhere else to go co to save their precious souls.
-The qualification for sacrifice is… It’s a strange word, but it’s ‘love’.
-In the end, we can say that we are living with the price of the life of our loved one.
When the drought becos severe, people eat people.
Even just looking at the Three Kingdoms, there is an example of a country exterminating its people, even children.
Even if you don’t do anything wrong, you will just die in war.
When royalties are hell.
Where should humans go?
‘It’s a heart that desperately loves the other person.’
Parents, children, siblings, couples, and even close friends.
It is said that only if you are willing to sacrifice your life for the other person very earnestly will the peach tree accept it.
-So people eventually give up in the middle. Still, the tree is just sent back outside. That’s just it. This is all we have here, but maybe not those people.
Jin Cheon-hee was lost in thought with a complicated expression.
Cheonwoo said.
“brother. No way, I could burn a peach tree…”
‘What kind of image do I have to this guy?’
I wanted to ask once, but Jin Cheonhee held back.
“Common sense tells I’m just an outsider here. I still don’t know what the peach tree really is. There is not enough information. “That is ‘hypocrisy’ to say the least.”
thank god.
My brother is still sane.
Cheonwoo asked, slightly relieved.
“What if this land is your brother’s jurisdiction and he has so legitimate right to judge everything?”
“Well, if I handle everything on my own without thinking about any secondary situations or circumstances…”
Jin Cheon-hee rubbed her chin.
“…I burned it.”
If heaven was maintained only if soone sacrificed, it was better to abolish it.
“also.”
“And they would have set up a welfare-related counseling center next door.”
“…!”
There’s sothing strange about the ending.
My brother, who was thinking so much, said.
“No, first of all, I will first consider whether the people here will die if the peach tree is burned.”
But realistically speaking.
If the people of this village suddenly co and ask if they have the right to dare to do that, no matter how much Jin Cheonhee does, they can’t answer.
If what the village chief said is true, the people here had no choice but to make a choice to survive.
Jin Cheon-hee was starving to the point where she had to eat people.
Never before has a mother, father, child, or grandmother been buried alive due to war.
And the midfield has always been full of such things.
And is it possible to judge the lives of those people when it is impossible to take responsibility for all of it?
‘So this is just a stranger’s perspective.’
If I were to be greedy, I would still like to block the entrance to Dowonhyang.
‘The thoughts of families of patients with incurable diseases may be different.’
It’s just the legislator’s arbitrariness.
It was always like that, even in Sae-eup.
Good and evil are so intertwined that there are tis when it feels like modern society is clearer.
Therefore, when it is difficult to judge what is the right way to act.
Lawmakers tend to just watch as things go by.
Sotis, the answer cos naturally.
‘You’re just admitting that you don’t know what you don’t know.’
This is the wisdom of an adult.
When I told this story to Cheonwoo, he nodded.
“What a very congressman-like perspective.”
“so?”
“yes. I don’t think it’s Kang Ho-in’s perspective. brother.”
“Hahaha, I thought you’d say it was cold.”
“No, no, it’s more like us to be cold…”
Cheonwoo said that and didn’t say any more.
A little silence.
Finally, Cheonwoo spoke.
“My brother is quite the opposite.”
Jin Cheon-hee shook her head as if saying no and said this.
“I’m just being indecisive.”
Cheonwoo shook his head and tried to refute those words.
“Hyung…”
“You said that even the village chief didn’t know how Dowonhyang was created in the first place.”
but.
It is said that once every 100 to 150 years, a person called Dohwaseonin would appear and bring in large numbers of outsiders.
The village chief is also said to be hundreds of years old, and he doesn’t know exactly how much he is because he gave up counting at so point.
Still, there are quite a few of them in the village.
He also said that he saw Dohwaseonin three tis.
Once when I was young, once 110 years ago, and once now.
It is said that Dohwaseonin had a different appearance every ti and always wore a mask.
‘The Dohwaseonin I saw when I was young was a strong man with a strong physique. The second person I saw was an old man wearing a mask but with a bent back. Now she said she was a woman.’
Sima Hyun said.
“Hyung… are you also thinking what I’m thinking right now?”
“….”
“I don’t know.”
Jin Cheon-hee denies it.
Sima Xuan pricked his brother’s heart.
“A tall and extrely skinny woman… Judging from her behavior and speaking style, I am reminded of Samjeolchuho…” “
….”
Jin Cheon-hee tosses and turns.
I wanted to say no.
But why is the truth so vague?
“There’s no way soone as smart as your brother wouldn’t know.”
“…that’s right. At the mont, that seems highly likely. Dobulsa Temple, where Qin Shi Huang’s earthen soldiers exist like traps. Unfortunately, Samjeolchuho disappeared from there. And even the impression and way of speaking of the contemporary Dohwaseonin. No matter how you look at it… it’s difficult for there to be two people like that in this situation.”
Samjeolchuho is Dohwawonju.
Jin Cheon-hee grits her teeth.
Then he spoke with an expression that I couldn’t tell whether he was smiling or frowning.
“Or maybe he ca to look for Dowonhyang and Dohwawonju. “Her younger brother couldn’t be cured using normal thods.”
We are desperately looking for other variables with Hyeonwon Jeondan New Technique.
Sima Xuan asked.
“You can’t treat too, right~?”
“okay. “It was… not a matter of the body, but a matter of the soul and spirit.”
Jin Cheon-hee spoke in detail about the last ti she t Geumcheon-gun.
“I don’t know if Geumcheon-gun used divorce magic or so other type of magic, but the problem is that he rged his spirit with Samjeolchuho’s younger sister.”
“Once combined, is it difficult to separate?”
“huh. It’s like egg yolk. “Before mixing, the boundaries are separate, but once mixed, the whites and yolks combine and are difficult to separate again.”
Cheonwoo said.
“I understand because you compare the spirit to an egg.”
Jin Cheonhee nodded.
“If you’re trying to heal your sister using that peach tree, I can understand it. The problem is, if she really is also the head of the peach tree…”
After saying that, Jin Cheon-hee paused for a mont.
The congressman’s eyes shine coldly.
A mont that seems like an eternity.
Finally, he continues speaking.
“…Where on earth did the people who disappeared from nearby villages go this ti?”
“!”
