Taejonbirok Volume 6 Episode 8
Chapter 39: The Lazy Man, Reunited (3)
Sanggwanhong tilted his head and looked inside the carriage.
The timing of the burst of laughter was exquisite.
As Sanggwan Hong's gaze turned into the carriage, Seomun Da-yeon hurriedly turned her horse around.
“How are you, Mr. Sanggwan Cheongwon Nosa?”
“Do you know your grandfather?”
“I’ve met you before.”
"ah!"
Sanggwanhong nodded. His grandfather was a man like the wind, and he had made many connections here and there. It would not be strange if Seomun Dayeon was one of those connections.
Seomun Da-yeon glanced back.
'What fun kids.'
Even if there is a difference in the number of riders, if it is to the point of Samryongibong, it can be said that it has already surpassed her in terms of weaponry.
But perhaps because he was still young, his face still had a youthful look to it.
The sword dragon Sanggwanhong, the dragon called Doryong, Pengdohyung, and the powerful dragon Unhyo.
From Geumbong Namgung Hye to Mubong Jong Mi-ryeo.
'Is it weird that I feel cute?'
If she had seen them a while ago, she would have been nervous. But now, she just thought they were cute.
Seomun Dayeon knew what the cause was.
Drumroll.
She blushed at the snoring she heard inside the carriage.
'There are kids too… … .'
You seem like a person who doesn't know what respect is.
Seomun Da-yeon shook her head.
If you think about it, Wei Yanho is no different from these kids. In terms of age, Sanggwanhong is probably older than Wei Yanho. However, Wei Yanho was already bickering with Geomgwi Gongmujin.
'If you think about it… …what on earth is that monster doing?'
If we look at their age, they should be hanging out together. However, at that age, Wei Yanhu already had the skills to defeat Gong Mujin without getting hurt.
It was so absurd that it didn't feel real until now, but seeing them really made it feel real. She didn't even know that she was burning someone who would leave a mark on the history of martial arts.
'And I will leave my name as his groom.'
The more I thought about it, the sadder it became.
As if to console her sorrow, soon the village came into view and an inn came into view.
“I’ll stay here today.”
"All right."
As soon as Seomun Da-yeon finished speaking, Gong Mu-jin jumped out of the carriage.
“Then let’s reserve a room. Would you like to help your senior organize the carriage?”
“Of course I should do it.”
Sanggwanhong nodded happily.
Normally, they would not be willing to take care of horses as they were children of noble families, but when they met the swordsman and had the opportunity to be taught by him, why wouldn't they do something like that?
Sanggwanhong and others came running out and separated the horses from the carriage with Soyi.
“……But isn’t there someone riding inside?”
At Sanggwan Hong's words, Seomun Da-yeon and Gong Mu-jin frowned at the same time.
“Leave it alone.”
“Just leave it for now.”
"yes?"
When Sanggwanhong tilted his head, Seomundayeon added.
“Once he wakes up, he’ll know he’s hungry and come out on his own, so leave him alone until then. He’s the kind of person who’ll only make things worse if you wake him up for no reason.”
Sanggwanhong frowned. The more he listened, the more he could not guess what kind of person was inside.
After roughly tidying up the carriage and taking a room, people came down to the first floor to eat.
Gong Mu-jin greeted the later index members with a pleasant smile.
“I am glad to see these people who will lead the future of Gangho. It is an honor to meet such renowned figures in the Four Seas.”
Sanggwanhong bowed his head.
“It’s a lie.”
“Hahaha, you’re being too humble.”
Sanggwanhong smiled bitterly.
He truly believed that the name he had acquired was a false reputation. The best review index of Jamryongmu-gwan did not mean the best review index in Gangho.
In general, those who entered the Jamryongmu-gwan and served as officers were mostly figures from the Five Great Families, excluding the Old Families. Although there were rare cases of key later rankers entering the Old Families, in general, there was a strong tendency to receive training within their own Families.
This stems from the fundamental difference between the Five Dynasties and the Old School.
In addition to the representative seasonal divisions known to the public, the old school has numerous seasonal divisions. Even the Hwasan of Gongmujin in front of you is known to the world as the plum blossom sword technique, but it also has martial arts such as Jukyeopsu and Yukhapkwon, and new techniques such as Amhyangpyo based on Jahashingong.
On the other hand, in the case of Sega, it can be said that the representative seasons are not lacking compared to the old school, but other than those seasons, everything else is poor.
Even in the case of Namgung Se-ga, who is currently called the best in the world, the Emperor's Sword and the Iron Sword 24-style are said to be the best in the world, but few people know what Namgung Se-ga's recommended sword techniques are.
So, it has become essential to enter the Jamryongmu-gwan to exchange experiences and martial arts skills.
For this reason, the saying that Jamryongmu-gwan has the best review index means that he is the best among those excluding the core review indexes of the old school.
“May I ask you something, even though it may be presumptuous of me to do so?”
Mubong Jongmiryo opened her mouth.
“Huh?”

Gong Mu-jin looked at Jong Mi-ryeo with interest.
It is true that he is interested in Sword Dragon Sanggwanhong, but the person Gongmujin is most interested in right now is, no matter what anyone says, Mu-bong.
While others had clear origins, little was known about Jong Mi-ryeo. Nevertheless, she was someone who had earned the nickname of Mubong through her strong will to learn martial arts and her excessive training.
He is a person that public officials who value constant diligence and passion for learning cannot help but be interested in.
It was also interesting to see that he looked younger than he had heard when I actually met him. If he was given the name Mubong at that age, his martial arts skills must be much better than he looks.
“Tell me.”
“I heard that the Volcano Sword is the best in the world. As a swordsman who uses a sword, I can’t miss this opportunity to get to know the Volcano Sword, right?”
Contrary to the clear voice, the content was by no means light.
The official spoke as if he was in trouble.
Considering Jong Mi-ryeo's age, it would be right for Lee Seol-hwa to be her opponent. Even though Lee Seol-hwa is her older sister, they are still somewhat similar in age.
However, it was not possible to recommend that Lee Seol-hwa do a martial arts class when her internal injuries did not seem to have completely healed.
'What should I do if I get a cold?'
If it were before, Gong Mu-jin would have pushed Lee Seol-hwa's back, saying that it was belittling the martial arts world to only fight in perfect conditions, but thanks to Wi Yeon-ho, Gong Mu-jin learned that love for a disciple is love for the country.
“Unfortunately, Seolhwa’s internal injuries have not completely healed.”
Jongmi-ryeo slowly shook her head.
“I would be more than happy to compete with Lady Isulhwa, but given the circumstances, there is nothing I can do. However, I am not the only one here who can use the Volcano Sword, right?”
Gong Mu-jin's eyes narrowed.
Seomun Da-yeon and the others' faces also turned slightly pale.
Excluding Lee Seol-hwa, there is only one person here who can use the Volcano Sword. Right now, Mu-bong is requesting a secret weapon from the plum blossom sword demon Gong Mu-jin.
“……Are you trying to fight me right now?”
“I’m not asking for a favor, I’m asking for a lesson.”
“Hehehe, you said you had to understand Mubong’s greed for martial arts……”
Gong Mu-jin laughed in vain, then hardened his face.
“I appreciate your determination, but I think you should reconsider. I am not the type of person to let others off the hook just because I am a non-combatant. If you want to fight with me, you must be prepared to lose your head, right?”
It wasn't something I would say to my junior.
That meant that the public servants were quite excited right now. Who would be happy if a greenhorn wanted to fight them?
“If I were to die chasing nothing, wouldn’t that be the most fitting death for a person who is not a warrior?”
“Hahahaha!”
Gong Mu-jin nodded.
The anger has subsided.
It was Mu-bong's serious attitude toward learning that made him happy. However, it was impossible for the Volcano Sword to just deal with it roughly once it was challenged.
“Good. Come out. I will show you how great the Volcano Sword is.”
Gong Mu-jin and Mubong Jong Mi-ryeo stood facing each other in the empty space outside the inn.
Looking at the sight, Lee Seol-hwa spoke to Seo Mun-da-yeon with anxious eyes.
“Sister, shouldn’t I be stopping you?”
“I think that’s what it should be, but…….”
Seomun Da-yeon let out a deep sigh. I had heard that Mubong Jongmirye was a martial arts fanatic, but I didn’t know that she was so clueless that she would suddenly request a martial arts lesson from Gongmujin.
'I hope nothing big happens.'
The Gong Mu-jin she had seen so far was an unpredictable person. However, if there was one thing that was certain, it was that he was the Plum Blossom Sword Ghost Gong Mu-jin, and people do not change that easily.
Although it is said that he looks like a nice guy when he is entangled with Wi Yeon-ho, if that was Gong Mu-jin's true nature, he would not have been called Geom-gwi.
“You’d better be careful.”
“My sword is sharp too.”
Seomun Da-yeon quietly went to Sanggwan Hong and spoke.
“Shouldn’t I stop it?”
Sanggwanhong sighed and shook his head.
“Mubong is not a person who can be stopped. When it comes to things related to martial arts, he is a person who never backs down.”
"ha……."
When I was given the name Mubong at such a young age, I thought there must be a reason for it, but I never thought it would be this much.
Passion is good, but this was too much.
“Don’t give up three seconds.”
Mubong nodded.
Then, in one breath, he drew three swords toward the air.
Gong Mu-jin's eyebrows twitched.
“……What is this?”
“I used all three swords.”
“Heh heh heh heh…….”
Gong Mu-jin laughed hollowly. If we look at it positively, we can interpret it as him wanting to experience a proper swordsmanship rather than just showy formalities.
but…….
“Do you dare make fun of me?”
Plum Blossom Sword Demon Gong Mu-jin was a man of high self-respect. To him, such an act could only be perceived as a provocation.
“I was trying to be lenient on you……. Okay, I’ll show you. See with your own eyes what the Volcano Sword is like.”
A purple energy began to flow out from Gongmujin's body. The volcano's self-descending energy was drawn up.
Yi Seol-hwa's face began to turn pale. In her view, her master was very angry right now. If that was the case, then that young girl named Mu-bong would not be able to finish the fight with all her limbs intact.
'I have to stop it.'
But who can stop the angry officials?
Yi Seol-hwa's eyes turned back. A carriage parked at the end of the vacant lot caught her eye.
What about Wi Yeon-ho?
It may have been a good idea, but unfortunately, her idea could not shine. Before she could even run, the carriage door opened wide and Wei Yanhu walked out with annoyance written all over his face.
“Ah! Why is it so noisy! It’s so noisy I can’t even sleep!”
Everyone's eyes were focused on Wi Yeon-ho.
'What's that guy?'
When Sanggwanhong frowned, a strange change occurred.
Gong Mu-jin released all the energy he had built up, coughed in vain, and looked at Wi Yeon-ho.
“Are you awake?”
'Are you awake?'
Sanggwanhong's eyes widened.
Isn't this tone too gentle compared to what the public servants have shown so far?
But that wasn't all. The real change came from Jong Mi-ryeo, not Gong Mu-jin.
Jong Mi-ryeo's expression hardened noticeably when she saw Wi Yeon-ho.
