Taejonbirok Volume 19, Episode 4
Chapter 103: The Lazy Man Does Good Deeds (4)
The necessity was mutual.
The question is who can more perfectly demonstrate its legitimacy. In that regard, Dang Yong-min might have the edge. The problem is that this guy before us is a being who defies justification.
There was also such a calculation behind the shouting for the Tang family to leave.
"He's faced with a disaster he can't possibly handle alone, so he needs everyone to come help quickly." Whether or not he understood Dang Yong-min's intentions, Wei Yan-ho grumbled with a grim expression.
“No, why are you so angry about showing me that?”
“Isn’t that what you gave me?”
"I gave it to you, but I didn't create it. I can't possibly fully understand it."
“What about your emergency?”
“For now, I don’t have it.”
Wi Yeon-ho said with a bashful smile.
“It’s heavy to carry around something you won’t even look at.”
“Ugh.”
Dang Yong-min clutched his chest.
'Why am I so excited?'
If you just look at each word, it's not that strange, but from the listener's perspective, it's so frustrating that it almost makes you want to explode.
There was something about that one expression, that one voice, that made people irritated.
"What are you going to use that secret weapon for?! And you're saying you haven't even gotten your hands on the Sword Emperor's Treasure and mastered it?"
“There’s no need to learn it in particular.”
“…….”
I'm unlucky.
I had terrible luck.
Dang Yong-min ground his teeth without realizing it.
Yes. By the time Wi Yeon-ho arrives, the Sword Emperor's martial arts might not be of much use.
furthermore…….
'It's not very useful, you know.'
Each sect that obtained the Sword Emperor's Secret Book rushed to interpret it.
No matter how proven the Sword Emperor's martial arts are, it's impossible to simply master a newly acquired secret skill without any preparation. It's crucial to check for any fatal flaws.
But the more I analyzed the emergency, the more different stories emerged.
There is skepticism about whether one can achieve a rapid rise in one's status by simply learning this martial art.
Since it was proven that this martial arts was the martial arts of the Sword Emperor, there was an expectation that there must be something more, but I couldn't be sure of what it was.
After repeated research, the Tang family finally confirmed that there was no danger in learning martial arts itself, and allowed those who wanted to learn the Sword Emperor's Treasure.
No matter how much they studied, they could never fully interpret the martial arts created by the Sword Emperor. Ultimately, they had no choice but to learn them firsthand and see the results.
But unfortunately, there hasn't been any significant effect yet.
There were even some who said it was just a waste of time.
“You mean you didn’t learn it?”
"Yes. Why would you learn someone else's martial arts? Even my own martial arts are difficult to master."
“…….”
Dang Yong-min's face hardened.
“Yeah, that’s right. Yeah…….”
I felt like I'd been hit by something.
Are we fully mastering the Tang family's martial arts?
No one can answer that question.
Despite his lifelong practice and re-practice, he still hadn't seen the end of Tang Dynasty martial arts. Even Prince Dangcheon, the dark king, wouldn't be able to confidently claim, "I've seen the end of Tang Dynasty martial arts."
But how can you look down on other people's ignorance?
How can those who cannot even digest what they have learn anything else?
"you……."
Dang Yong-min tried to say something but then closed his mouth.
'At least this guy's attitude toward the uneducated is a hundred times better than mine.'
Do not covet what others have, but try to digest what you have.
Even though it is a black and yellow map.
The Sword and the Yellow Emperor's Treasure.
Who would not covet the martial arts of the Sword Emperor, who is considered the greatest of all time?
If the swordsman's martial arts were right before your eyes in the form of a secret weapon, who would be able to resist the temptation to learn it?
Even he, who had spent his entire life cultivating himself, could not do it, and even Shaolin, which taught that materialism was the most dangerous thing in the world, could not do it.
But this young man is doing it without any problem.
'There must be a strong reason.'
If you think about it, it's only natural.
There is no strength without a reason.
It was as natural as water flowing downwards for someone to reach a state of mind that he could not reach no matter how much he practiced and practiced.
“I don’t want to be greedy……. Hehe.”
At that moment, people came running from all over the place. They had heard Dang Yong-min's shout and had chased him.
“What’s going on!”
“This guy in the end!”

“Do you think you can ignore the party like this and still get away with it?”
Those who came running chased Wi Yeon-ho as if they knew what was going on without even looking.
The moment Wi Yeon-ho, who was feeling wronged, was about to refute, Dang Yong-min raised his hand and stopped everyone.
“No. There was a misunderstanding.”
"yes?"
“I said no.”
When Dang Yong-min waved his hand, those who had rushed forward had no choice but to retreat. Isn't it strange that they're pressing forward when they're not the person involved?
“Yeah, you said it was an emergency?”
“But.”
"Come on. I'll show you. What's so difficult about it?"
"omg?"
When Dang Yong-min came out, Wi Yeon-ho became scared.
“Why are you suddenly like this?”
"I just had a thought. I think maybe I misunderstood you a little."
"yes?"
Dang Yong-min chuckled.
'If you think about it, it's true.'
While it's true that Wei Yanhu brought great shame to the Tang family, a closer look reveals that Wei Yanhu didn't harbor ill will toward the Tang family. Rather, it was a member of the Tang family who harbored ill will toward Wei Yanhu who attempted to assassinate him, and this was exposed, leading to their disgrace.
Even the Tang army, which had tried to control the situation, was defeated by Wi Yeon-ho, and the humiliation became too great to bear, but Wi Yeon-ho simply blocked the attack of the one who tried to kill him.
But what crime did Wi Yeon-ho commit?
Wi Yeon-ho's faults were nothing more than serious sins. He was too strong to die easily, so it's impossible to say he was wrong.
'I knew it.'
Dang Yong-min shook his head.
If we think beyond the confines of the Tang family, it's clear who's at fault. Yet, Wei Yanhu has never expressed any particular resentment toward the Tang family, which has been hostile to him.
'I'm embarrassed.'
Dang Yong-min's face flushed as he realized that he was being unreasonable towards a child who didn't even live half his age.
“Would you please stop looking at me like that? It gives me goosebumps.”
As Dang Yong-min looked at him with a gentle smile, Wei Yan-ho hesitated and stepped back. He was used to those eyes, full of murder. Those eyes were truly uncomfortable.
"I'm not quite settled yet, so let's discuss this later. Come with me. You have to get what you want, right?"
“Hmm, that’s true.”
Wi Yeon-ho followed Dang Yong-min with a trembling face. The crowd gathered around him, their expressions bewildered.
“What’s going on?”
“Well, what the heck is going on…….”
“Why is the three elders taking that guy with them?”
“I said I don’t know.”
The party was also bewildered by the sudden change.
“Here it is.”
Dang Yongmin held out the Sword and Emperor's Seal in front of Wei Yanhu. Wei Yanhu looked at it with a subtle gaze.
“Why? Isn’t this what you want?”
Wi Yeon-ho shook his head.
“No. This is correct.”
“But why is your expression like that?”
“……What should I say, seeing it again gives me a new feeling?”
"huh?"
Wi Yeon-ho sighed.
'I shouldn't have just sold it.'
No one would kick a pumpkin that rolled in. Someone with Wei Yanho's abilities wouldn't give up something that came to them on their own.
At the time, it was unavoidable, but as things turned out this way, I couldn't help but have some regrets.
“I’ll read it first.”
“I see.”
Wi Yeon-ho picked up the Sword and Sword Scroll and began to read it slowly.
'hmm…….'
Dang Yongmin let out a low sigh as he watched Wi Yeon-ho read the Geomhwangjibo.
'I feel like I'm getting sucked in.'
Wi Yeon-ho, reading the secrets with a serious expression, was a sight I hadn't seen in a while. I couldn't help but admire his concentration.
Dang Yong-min quietly got up from his seat.
Wi Yeon-ho was so absorbed in his task that he didn't even notice Dang Yong-min rising. A fleeting thought occurred to him that a surprise attack like this could inflict a fatal wound on Wi Yeon-ho.
But instead of taking Wei Yanho by surprise, Dang Yongmin walked to the door and called out to the squire.
“Get the tea ready.”
“Yes, Elder.”
Even as Dang Yong-min sat back down and the servant brought tea, Wei Yan-ho kept his eyes glued to the book. Only when the white steam from the warming tea had dissipated did Wei Yan-ho close the last page of the book.
“What do you think?”
"hmm……."
Wi Yeon-ho scratched the back of his head.
When Wi Yeon-ho seemed to be troubled, Dang Yong-min misunderstood his meaning and said with a smile.
"You can just talk. I already guessed why you sought out and read this secret recipe. You probably wanted to confirm whether this recipe was the cause of your illness."
“How did you know?”
"Getting older means becoming more perceptive. Especially for someone like me, who's reached a certain level of status, the only thing left is perceptiveness. If that heavy butt is capable of moving, it should be capable of that."
“Well, that’s true, but that’s not why I’m doing this.”
"then?"
"hmm……."
Just then, the door flew open.
Dang Yong-min frowned and raised his head.
“What kind of rudeness is this!”
The ones who opened the door and came inside were Wi Jeong-han and Jang Il. Upon hearing that Dang Yong-min had taken Wi Yeon-ho away, they rushed over, fearing that something had happened.
The two people who opened the door in a hurry and came in hesitated when they saw the two people sitting across from each other and the tea placed on the table.
“No, that’s not it…….”
“Well, with people…….”
Dang Yong-min clicked his tongue as if he knew why the two had come running so urgently.
“Do I look like someone who can’t handle an accident?”
"……sorry."
"Okay. Since you're here, sit over here. I'm sure you'd like to hear the answer, too."
"yes."
Wi Jeong-han and Jang Il, who had committed a crime, sat down in the place that Dang Yong-min had pointed to, their shoulders drooping.
“Please, keep some dignity!”
“…….”
Wi Yeon-ho's words pierced Wi Jeong-han's heart like a dagger. I wouldn't have wanted to hear such words from anyone else, but from Wi Yeon-ho alone. He wanted to burst out in anger, but he couldn't do so without seeing Dang Yong-min's expression.
“Ugh, I’ll see you later.”
Dang Yong-min clicked his tongue and turned his head to look at Wi Yeon-ho.
"So what was the outcome? Was this emergency the cause of this disease?"
Wi Jeong-han and Jang Il swallowed their saliva.
A tension so strong that the muscles of their entire bodies were taut was pressing down on them.
“Based on what I’ve seen, that is…….”
Wi Yeon-ho looked around at those who were paying attention to him and then quietly opened his mouth.
