Genius Martial Arts Trainer Chapter 33

◈ Hyungwang (4)

“Today, we will first check the lower leg and ankle.”

Moo-jin said as he placed the towel he had brought in advance on Hyeon-gwang’s calf.

It was a towel that had been made warm by soaking it in warm water and wringing out the water.

When the warmth of the wet towel eased the tension in my calf muscles, Mujin carefully placed his hand on the towel.

“When you’re in pain, don’t hold back and tell me right away.”

After saying that, Mujin slowly moved his hands and used acupressure to check the condition of Hyunkwang’s muscles.

‘crazy… … . ‘It’s more serious than I thought?’

I didn’t know how long I had been carried on my back, but there was almost no muscle left in my calf, and what little muscle and ligament remained. The condition of the tendons and cartilage was the worst.

“Master Taesajo. “You can make noise if it hurts.”

Mu-jin, who had a vague sense of his condition after only a few acupressure sessions, noticed that Hyeon-gwang was also enduring pain and moaning, just like Beop-gang, and lowered the intensity as much as possible.

‘Ugh. Is this Shaolin monk addicted to self-harm? ‘I don’t know why I don’t show that I’m in pain.’

Mu-jin, who only lightly clicked his tongue, did his best to apply pressure to Hyeon-gwang’s lower body, contrary to his true feelings.

“Now that I’ve warmed up a bit, I’ll start the actual treatment.”

After finishing the acupressure, Mu-jin spoke to Hyeon-gwang in a calm tone.

Then, Mujin started lifting Hyunkwang’s right leg and moving it around to correct the twisted joints and muscles found during the acupressure process.

He began manual therapy.

Since performing manual therapy right away on a patient with a serious condition can put a strain on the muscles and joints, Mujin first supported the body with a warm towel and relieved tension with acupressure before starting manual therapy.

Mu-jin, who treated both legs alternately for several degrees, continued to move and rotate Hyeon-gwang’s legs and ankles.

This time, it was muscle lengthening surgery, not manual therapy.

“Okay, this time I’m going to cross my right leg over my left. “Just place your back on the floor and turn your head slightly to the right.”

Mujin first dealt with skeletal abnormalities through manual therapy, and then used muscle lengthening techniques to gradually loosen the tight muscles.

However, Hyeon-gwang’s body, which has already deteriorated over the decades, is at a level that surpasses that of Mugung. Although he was a Buddhist and not a loyalist, I could almost feel his spirit that he would break if he was bent.

Acupressure, manual therapy, and even muscle lengthening surgery.

Mujin’s treatment continued for half an hour.

Naturally, sweat was already forming on Mujin’s forehead.

Mujin has been growing his body for the past year and ten months. Of course, even with a little help from acupressure or muscle lengthening, it wasn’t too much of a stretch.

However, Hyeon-gwang’s body was now so deteriorated that handling his body was closer to glass crafts. It was said that it was a plate that would break if the slightest amount of force was applied.

Just like Hyeon-gong, Mu-jin was also very careful with his strength, not betting, so his strength was inevitably worn out.

Nevertheless, there was no trace of annoyance on Mujin’s face. She didn’t even seem tired.

Rather, there was a certain earnestness in his eyes.

However, it was not because the goal was to gain something from treating Hyeon-gwang.

Hyeon-gwang, who was receiving treatment, could not help but be lost in thought as he occasionally looked into Mu-jin’s eyes.

‘her… … . ‘What on earth is this young disciple going through to make such a sad face?’

Apart from his lost martial arts skills, he was also a highly respected Buddhist monk. He was also older than Ji Cheon-myeong and Yi Sun, so just by looking at his face and eyes, you could get a glimpse of what he was like.

Because of Mujin’s eyes and expression, Hyun-gwang accepted Mujin’s treatment.

In fact, it was Hyun-gwang’s choice to be left like an old man in the back room.

He was the hero of Shaolin, and at the same time, he was the most anticipated player in Shaolin. Naturally, Gong Ja-bae and Geum Ja-bae, who returned alive from the war against the Demon Cult, tried their best to save Hyeon-gwang in any way possible.

They fed Daehwandan, the best elixir of Shaolin, and invited the people who were the most famous and called divine doctors in the vast central plains.

However, the Great Huandan had no effect on his body, whose dantian had already been shattered, and even Xin’s acupuncture had only a temporary effect. After a few days, he would often return to a state where it was difficult to even walk.

In hopes of correcting such a problem, Gong Ja-bae and Geum Ja-bae have invited all kinds of people to Shaolin, following rumors floating around in the central plains.

Among them, the majority were con artists, and although effective, there were some treatments that bordered on inhumane witchcraft.

Therefore, Hyeon-gwang voluntarily refused treatment.

The reality is that So-rim, who did not accumulate wealth with fairness, is losing her small fortune because of herself.

Above all, he was afraid that Shaolin would accept the unjust process because of his good intentions to treat himself.

Originally, humans tended to accept unjust processes more easily when their purpose was good. Because you can use the excuse of doing it for justice.

For that reason, Hyunkwang thought that Mujin might also have that purpose.

If he heals himself, the hero of Shaolin, Mujin’s name and influence in Shaolin will soar in an instant.

However, there was no wrong desire in Mujin’s eyes. Instead, what is taking place is the way doctors treat patients.

No, more than that, there was some unidentifiable sadness and a sense of duty mixed together.

While Hyunkwang is trying to figure out the true meaning behind Mujin’s eyes.

Mujin, who was so focused on treatment that he didn’t even know what kind of expression he was making, calmly stood up.

“For now, this is the end of my treatment today.”

“Then can I just call those two?”

“yes. Monk Bangjang.”

Sigh.

Not long after their conversation, the door to the living quarters opened and Hyeon-gong and Hye-dam came in.

And just like we did in the mock practice last night, infrared treatment and electrical stimulation treatment continued.

* * *

That night.

Mu-jin, who became a disciple of Beop-geon, Hyeon-gwang’s ancestor, moved his luggage from Nahandang to the pavilion where Hyeon-gwang lived.

Normally, even if you became a priest and stayed in the palace of your master or ancestor, you would have to use a different room.

However, in Hyeon-gwang’s case, he was unable to even move, so Beop-geon was using an oriental medicine room to take care of him.

The situation was no different for Mujin, who became Beopgeon’s disciple.

So, Beopgeon. In the present, Mujin sleeps in a room with Hyeon-gwang.

It’s been a while since I had a dream.

“grandfather. “I will definitely treat you.”

“Hehehe. This was an allotment. “Let’s go in and get some rest.”

Even in his dream, Mujin was diligently massaging the calf of an old man.

But why? Even in his dreams, Mujin was Mujin, but the person whose calf he was massaging was not Hyeon-gwang.

An old man who appeared in a dream. He was Choi Kang-hyuk’s paternal grandfather.

“Grandpa, just trust me! “How much I studied to be able to cure my grandfather!”

Mujin shouted in a confident tone, but this was not true.

It was after he was forcibly discharged from the military that Choi Kang-hyuk began studying physical therapy, rehabilitation, and exercise.

And damn it, his paternal grandfather passed away when he was in high school.

Mujin. No, the two saddest experiences in Choi Kang-hyuk’s life. It wasn’t that he was forcibly discharged from the military, that there was a crisis at the gym due to the coronavirus, or that the stress caused hair loss.

The only blood relative he had been with since the earliest childhood he could remember. He was there when his paternal grandfather and paternal grandmother passed away.

At the time of his grandfather’s death, he was only a student and could not do anything.

I had been watching my grandfather since he had difficulty walking in his later years, but all I could do was help him walk and often give him massages, something I had never really learned to do.

The reason he gave up going to college and thought about getting a job was because of his helplessness at that time.

In order to at least protect his grandmother, he hoped for a stable civil service job, and chose to become a career soldier because he thought working physically rather than studying was his aptitude.

The only problem was that I chose special forces because I still had the skills of a high school student and wanted to have a cool job.

Still, I was quite happy when I enlisted in the special forces at the age of 20 and received a salary from the government.

Because there was a sense of duty in protecting the country and a sense of satisfaction in knowing that he was supporting his precious grandmother.

However, due to the nature of special forces work and training, he was often away from home, and two years had passed since he was promoted to sergeant. His grandmother passed away suddenly.

And according to regulations, the state allowed him only 2 nights and 3 days of vacation. This was because they were grandparents, not parents.

In addition to annual leave, he did all the shopping during a 4-night, 5-day vacation, but it was not enough time for a young man who lost his entire family at the age of 25 to come to his senses.

And the unit that returned after 4 nights and 5 days was given a top-secret mission, and it was because of that mission that Choi Kang-hyuk suffered serious injuries. He almost lost his life when he went on a mission without being able to get his mind back together.

And today. Perhaps because it had been a long time since I had treated the old man’s body, memories of that time that had been buried in my dreams for a long time came to me.

That’s why Mujin. No, Choi Kang-hyuk should have repaid the treatment that he was unable to receive back then, throughout his life, but he tried to repay even the slightest bit of the favor that he could not repay at all.

“grandfather! “Are you cool?”

“Hehehe. Our Kanghyuk has very weak hands. “What should I do because my dog ​​can’t rest because of his grandfather?”

“Ah, being with Grandpa like this is relaxing!”

He was a blunt grandson when he was young, but as he got older, he showed off his strength and applied pressure to his grandfather’s calf.

* * *

It was around the time when Mujin was facing his paternal grandfather for the first time in a long time in his dreams.

“haha… … .”

Hyeon-gwang and Beop-geon woke up and were looking at Mu-jin, who was sleeping next to them.

“… … grandfather.”

“I will treat you… … .”

“How hard did I study… … .”

They had woken up a little while ago due to Mujin’s voice talking in his sleep.

‘What should I do? Sajo.’

‘Just leave it alone.’

To wake up Taesajo, who has difficulty moving around. It was truly a terrible act, but the victims, Hyeon-gwang and Beop-geon, did not express any complaints.

No, rather than expressing discomfort, he was looking at Mujin with a face full of pity.

‘That’s what it was. ‘Amitabha Buddha.’

Hyunkwang thought about the situation where he was being treated by Mujin today.

Acupressure, manual therapy, and even muscle lengthening surgery. Hyeon-gwang saw the unidentifiable sadness, desperation, and sense of duty in Mu-jin’s eyes as he was performing various treatments he had never heard of.

Although Choi Kang-hyuk himself was not aware of it, those helpless experiences from his childhood were deeply embedded in his mind as a kind of debt consciousness.

That’s why he always did his best to teach and treat elderly people with disabilities when they came to the gym.

And at this moment. Hyeon-gwang came to understand why Mu-jin worked so hard to treat himself without any misguided greed.

Also, how did a child named Mujin acquire such diverse knowledge at such a young age?

* * *

next day.

Today, as usual, treatment for Hyeon-gwang continued.

Below the knee yesterday. Mujin, who had mainly treated the calves and ankles, today focused on the front and back thighs and pelvis.

For a long time, we continued acupressure and manual therapy on Hyeon-gwang’s body. Is it because of the dream I had last night?

“Grandpa, if you feel uncomfortable, please tell me.”

Without realizing it, Mujin ended up saying the word ‘grandfather’ instead of ‘Taesajonim.’

“Uh huh. “What kind of speaking habit was that?”

“How dare you call Taesajo a grandfather!”

Ambassador Hyeoncheon and Hyeonseong, who were watching the treatment from the side, scolded him with a stern expression.

“Hehehe. You can just leave it as is. Monk Bangjang.”

Why? Hyeon-gwang, who was actually rude, could only show a benevolent smile.

And Hyeon-gwang, who had stopped Ambassador Hyeon-cheon and Hyeon-seong, this time turned his head and looked at Mu-jin.

“Mujin. From now on, it is okay to call this old monk grandfather. So make it easy for me. “Hehehe.”

Mujin thought as he looked at Hyun-gwang’s benevolent smile.

‘Did this old man eat something wrong?’

It was Mujin who didn’t know why he was suddenly acting friendly.

Still, when an older person says something like that, it is polite to follow along.

“yes. will do… … father.”

Mujin: Unlike before, let’s use the expression ‘grandfather’ in a somewhat awkward tone.

“Uh-huh!”

“Hehehe. it’s okay. Monk Bangjang.”

Hyeon-cheon’s stern voice and Hyeon-gwang’s benevolent voice were heard at the same time.

“… … “Can’t we just focus on treatment?”

Mujin wondered what he was telling me to do.
