Episode 389: My most precious treasure (3)
The next morning.
Laughter was constantly erupting from sowhere in the headquarters of the Cheonyuhoe.
“Heh heh. “Hehehehe.”
There is only one boy here who makes the sound of an old man’s laughter.
Eugene San was heading sowhere with light steps.
It felt so good that I couldn’t stop laughing.
Unbelievably, my granddaughter prepared a birthday treat for last night.
It was a first-of-its-kind event.
‘But how did he know Haebi’s birthday? When did I ever talk in my sleep again?’
What about anyone? The most important thing was the wonderful heart of my granddaughter.
After a while, I walked around the headquarters humming a song.
Before long, I was able to see a familiar face across from .
“It looks like sothing good has happened. “Shut your shoulders.”
The person we encountered was Maeng Nam-cheon, the owner of Soyo Mountain Lodge.
Yu Jin-san blushed when he realized that he had danced shoulder-to-shoulder while forgetting about face.
“Hmm. I think you saw it wrong. “What kind of shoulder dance can I do at this age?”
Maeng Namcheon tilted his head and muttered softly.
“I think I saw it clearly… By the way, where are you going this morning?”
“I was on my way to prison. “I want to see so of the prisoners taken from Cheonryongsa Temple.”
They were the followers of the Asura religion who were brought here with the help of the Joint Sect.
There was a need to obtain information in preparation for the coming fight.
“iced coffee. Then hurry and go before it’s too late. “They are now being looked after by experts from the Evil Dragon Gate.”
Akryongmun was a sect famous for being the most cruel and warlike among the four sects.
Therefore, it was also a force that the Cheonyuhoe thought for a long ti about whether to accept it.
In the end, they were allowed to join only after writing an oath to absolutely obey the rules of the Cheonyuhoe and the orders of the Hoeju.
“Thank you for the information.”
It seed that the commander-in-chief had sent them to try shock therapy.
We had to hurry and get there before the prisoners died from torture.
‘He should still be alive.’
Torture was not Yu Jin-san’s preferred thod, but he did not feel like blaming the Commander-in-Chief’s decision.
Aren’t they the ones who kidnapped children and offered them as sacrifices? It wasn’t pitiful at all.
He walked quickly and was able to reach his destination in an instant.
The warrior in charge of security in front of the entrance to the underground prison pretended to know.
“Are you here, Elder?”
“Thank you for your hard work. “The prisoners are still alive, right?”
“yes. “Maybe…”
Judging from his voice, it seed like he wasn’t sure.
You will find out soon anyway.
In the basent, there were countless empty prisons on either side of the maze-like passage.
Socheonseong Fortress was originally built for the purpose of stationing legions, so it had well-built facilities for handling prisoners.
‘Was the torture chamber the innermost one?’
As expected, signs of presence were felt at the very edge of the prison.
The sound of the whip and the swearing continued.
slam-! slam-!
“Aren’t these bastards kind-eyed!?”
When I arrived at the torture room, the sight that unfolded before my eyes was spectacular.
Three monsters were tied up sitting on chairs, their faces bloated and their bodies covered in blood.
Looking at it limply, it looked like it was barely breathing.
And in front of them, they saw a fat middle-aged man holding a whip and fuming.
“Tsk tsk.”
As Yu Jin-san ca in, clicking his tongue, the expert of the Evil Dragon Gate urgently put his hands together.
“I et Elder Yanggoi.”
“Thank you for your hard work. “What is your na?”
“This is Cheolgyu of the Akryongmun, a mber of the Hwaryongdae.”
“So, did you find out anything?”
Cheolgyu tilted his head and asked back.
“…yes? “I haven’t asked any questions yet.”
Yu Jin-san even cleared his throat at his absurd answer.
“What do you an? “You put the prisoners in that situation and didn’t ask them anything?”
“The Commander-in-Chief said I just need to take care of it. “I don’t even know what to ask…”
“So you’re saying I was just hitting him without any purpose?”
I had heard rumors about Sapa’s Evil Dragon Gate, but I never imagined it would be this ignorant.
At that ti, a believer who had his head down muttered helplessly in a voice filled with anger.
“You crazy bastards. “If you’ve caught soone, you don’t have to ask them anything.”
Jinsan Yu glanced at the Asura believer who had spoken.
His lips were swollen and so of his teeth were blown out, but his eyes never showed surrender.
“If I ask a question, will you answer it?”
I asked him just in case, but the answer was not different from what he expected.
“Kyayak tsk!”
Yu Jin-san twisted his upper body to the side to avoid the spit mixed with blood.
At the sa ti, a whip flew out from behind and struck the believer in the face.
slam-!
Cheol-gyu, who had punished, bowed his head again to Yujin-san and said.
“Elder. “They’re not ready to talk yet, so give so more ti.”
“hmm. The way I see it, I’m going to die before I’m ready. “You’d better find another way.”
“I know these guys best. “As things stand now, I will never open my mouth.”
What he said was sothing that Yu Jin-san also agreed with.
Even the monsters of Soreoeum Temple that had tried earlier did not open their mouths.
The Asura religion didn’t seem to be much different.
‘Let’s just stay still. ‘These people who serve evil gods have been said to be the archenemies of the Shaolin Temple since ancient history.’
In that case, I thought it would be a good idea to seek help from a Shaolin temple.
It would have been nice to bring the head of the temple, Jeonghye, but she had returned to the temple and was not in the castle.
At that ti, a person who could replace him ca to mind.
Isn’t there a Zen monk here whose Buddhist faith is strong enough to remind one of Bodhidharma?
“You must imdiately go to the training ground of Guidudae and call Master Wongang here.”
“iced coffee. “Are you talking about the monk who only follows around the chieftains?”
“I know very well. He might find a way.”
“I’ll be back soon, Elder.”
After finishing speaking, Cheol-gyu ran towards the ground.
Eugene San calmly crossed his arms and waited.
‘They’re just henchn anyway, so they probably won’t have much useful information. What I’m curious about is the source of the power they use.’
It was because of the Asura religion’s protection law, disguised as the head monk of Cheonnyongsa Temple.
According to Yu Jin-san’s guess, the guy was an expert in extre magic. Even if he played well, it was clear that he was at a similar level to the one who had reached the peak of Hwagyeong.
If he had been an unrivaled expert of the Talma level, equal to Hyeon-gyeong, he would not have won even if they had fought against each other.
The problem was that even though it was extrely powerful, it had a strange power that was even greater than that.
It was sothing that was incomprehensible to common sense.
‘Even though he was an extre demon, he had a power that surpassed that of an extre demon. However, this does not an that the barrier to escape has been broken. How on earth was that possible?’
I was planning to investigate the reason from now on.
While I was lost in thought. Just then, the person I had been waiting for appeared.
The second master of Shaolin Temple who achieved enlightennt through sitting ditation during a period of suffering.
Master Wongang, who appeared in a mysterious manner, put his hands together in front of my eyes.
“I heard that the Lord of the Lord sought the Hinayana.”
Jinsan Yu was secretly impressed by his changed spirit.
Not long ago, I beat him with experience and expediency, but now I was not confident enough.
“These people are followers of the Shaolin Temple’s archenemy, Asura Cult.”
“I heard about the Asura religion from Master Bangjang. But why are you looking for Hinayana?”
“I need to give these guys so pain so they will open their mouths.”
Wongang said, putting his hands together again with an expressionless face.
“Amitabha Buddha. Theravada will never torture a living being under any circumstances.”
“I guess you misunderstood what I said. “I’m just asking you to give the teachings of Buddha to those corrupt people who worship evil spirits.”
I couldn’t guarantee if it would work, but it was worth a try.
Wongang did not refuse and began to take a closer look at the Asura believers.
After staring at him for a while, he sighed and said.
“They are no longer people. “Because even my soul has been eaten away by the devil.”
“What do you an by that out of the blue?”
Instead of answering, he walked up to one of the Asura cult mbers and placed one hand on his head.
Then he frowned and said, probably because he felt sothing strange.
“Get your dirty hands off you damned Daengjung.”
Wongang paid no heed to his provocation and began to recite Buddhist scriptures.
In Buddhism, it was an anti-demon mantra (降魔眞言) that is recited when driving out demons.
“I will now open the ans of the Diamond Ministry and use three ans. Make your body like a diamond and your mind like empty space, pour out light through the mouth of each unit, and it will burn your body made up of ignorance.”
At that mont, sothing strange happened.
Aren’t the eyes of Shindo, who was caught by Wongang, turning black?
The strange thing I had seen at Cheonryongsa Temple was happening again.
“Kwaaaah!!!”
The guy who had never moaned even after being whipped started screaming like crazy.
I never thought it would have such a big effect.
Jinsan Yu watched from the side holding his breath.
Wongang’s anti-Ma mantra, which continued for a long ti, stopped only after he lost his mind.
“You can burn away the devil living within you, but then your body will die along with it.”
“Please speak in an easy-to-understand manner. So what you’re saying, monk, is that these guys’ bodies are possessed by sothing right now?”
“That’s right. The followers of this Asura religion carry the devil into their bodies to use their evil power.”
Now I felt like I could vaguely understand sothing.
The reason why Asuraism’s protection thod was extrely powerful, yet was able to produce even more power.
As expected, it could not be anything other than a religious order serving evil spirits.
“So, are you saying that the leader of these guys also has sothing on his body?”
This was the part that Eugene San was most curious about.
Perhaps the cult leader is a fearso expert who has reached the level of disenchantnt.
It was said that if sothing as evil as these guys possessed one’s body, it would be able to exert powers that go beyond disembodint.
It was never a problem that could be easily overco.
Up!
As Wongang grabbed the head of the fainted believer, his blackened eyes appeared again.
“I give a command to all worlds in heaven, space, and earth: Those who are not good should kneel down and listen to the Buddha’s sermon.”
After coming to his senses, he began to scream at the anti-ma mantra that started again.
“Kwaaaa!!”
“Hurry and tell what is on the cult leader’s body.”
“Shut up!!”
I don’t know what the situation was, but it seed like the Buddhist scriptures had a great effect.
At that ti, Yu Jin-san, who had been watching silently, approached the suffering believer and quietly whispered.
“Do you think it will end soon? As for this person, he was a person who practiced ditation for more than five years and morized Buddhist scriptures. “It ans we haven’t even started yet.”
Shindo, who had been screaming at Eugene San’s threats, had to raise his hands.
Imdiately afterwards, he shouted with an expression of exasperation.
“Asura!!! Asura has descended on the body of the religious leader!!”
