The Grand Mudang Saga [Path of the Shaman]

Episode 241

A secluded forest quite far from Samdo-pyeong.

A place where there is a spring called Ongdalsaem where rabbits do not forget to come and drink water from dawn.

Leaving Jinmu sitting idly by, Cheongsang, who carefully gathered the dry twigs that Jegalsansan had saved, skillfully builds a bonfire.

“Sasook!”

Cheong-woo, who went hunting, caught pheasants with both hands full, and wild boar calves are neatly hung over the bonfire after being groomed by Cheong-sang, and Jegalsansan takes out small bottles from his bosom and sprinkles them as if shaking.

It must contain salt and pepper and spices to add flavor.

If jegalsansan is sprayed, cheongwu flips it over, and if cheongsang makes a sheath, jegalsansan is sprayed again.

The division of labor among these cubs is quite good.

I thought it was good as long as it was ripe, but now I guess I know the taste of seasonings, right?

Either that or not, Jinmu’s head was filled with thoughts of the reward the shaman had received.

things to rot.

Is it difficult to say that you received it if you received it?

Wasn’t it possible that the shaman’s finances had increased thanks to you, so he could have sent at least a letter right away?

These bastards ate and wiped their mouths. In the meantime, I was a poor shaman, a pitiful shaman, and worrying about it was Jinmu, which had become very futile.

I regret that I secretly left a bottle of Yamyeongju at the volcano. how did you get that how much is that

While letting out a deep sigh of regret, Chung-sang cut the meat that Cheong-wu had skimmed off to make it easier to eat.

Cheong-sang politely brings up a plate full of steaming meat and sets it in front of him.

“Eat before it gets cold.”

“…”

Such a talkative guru.

I don’t even have any hesitation anymore It’s really been a long time since I’ve been in the middle of a long time.

Even in the middle of being upset about money problems, I’m a little happy. How can you not be happy that you have fallen so beautifully? All of this is the power of education.

Thinking about it made me feel a little better. Yes, let’s think of it as an investment for guys who will be reliable subordinates in the future. The shaman is a friendly force created by the Jeongmu-maeng. Let’s be content with that.

that much money. So much… keuheuheuk.

It doesn’t look like it’ll be forgotten easily.

Whether or not he knew Jinmu’s feelings, Cheongsang sat down in front of the meat platter and started chattering.

“Did you know that this place was a trap?”

No way. Come on, it was a trap.

Come to think of it, do you dare guide me into a trap? Damn you son of a bitch. As Jinmu remains silent, Cheongsang sighs and continues talking.

“…Did you know that grassroots people are being taken advantage of?”

huh? what are you talking about?

Jinmoo also thought this was the headquarters of the Three Palaces. That’s why I thought I’d take a look at the golden won bonus.

“I knew it. You were angry. I couldn’t stand these guys’ atrocities, so I moved my body before my head.”

“…”

It seems that this mad guru is following the stream of consciousness and building misunderstandings layer by layer.

“Well, Sasook has always been that kind of person.”

“…”

“When you first started outing with us, you took care of the gangsters in Danjiang-gu because of the difficulties of the common people.”

That’s not it. Cheong Sang-ah.

you know? At that time, Jinheo gave me 10 iron coins, telling me to use them as much as I wanted.

With that, I can’t even pay for the meat that Chung-woo eats. you saw it too how much does this guy eat? That’s why I was trying to earn a bounty.

At the time, it was mentally difficult for me to live as a guru, so I did a little bit of resentment.

“I thought about it while watching Sasuk who viciously rehabilitates them.”

“…”

“Ah, they say he is the one who chooses the path of thorns and brings righteousness to the world. So I decided. I will believe in Sasuk and follow him until the end.”

A series of crazy noises continued, but Jinmu only laughed awkwardly.

Ah, that was the beginning of the misunderstanding. But I respect you, but there is no reason to explain.

While crossing their arms and nodding, Cheongwu carefully picks up a piece of meat and brings it to Jinmu’s mouth.

hey look at this guy Indeed, it has made great progress.

This meat-loving guy didn’t eat me first and gave me to eat sasuk first.

Cheongsang’s words continue even while he is chewing meat with a sense of pride.

“I also heard from Master Unam.”

subordinate No. 3. Come to think of it, I didn’t see it, but I think you’re doing well.

“They said that he gained great enlightenment through his past private schooling.”

enlightenment?

Let Jinmu look at Cheongsang curiously.

“When the seven dongcheons of the Demonic Cult were in turmoil, Master Unam chased after them, concentrating only on the fake Guyaja. In the meantime, Sasuk saved Mincho alone.”

It wasn’t something I had to keep in my head, so I quickly forgot about it, but I do remember it.

“At that time, Unam Dojo said that he was too ashamed of the fact that he was wearing a dopo. He said he had no face to see Sa-sook’s face.”

“….”

“They said I forgot what I should have done first because it was hidden behind a facade.”

Oh, are you talking about the scolding at that time?

That’s just what I said out of anger.

“Master Unam said he would live with Sasuk for the rest of his life. It seems like I met the true teacher next to Jinryong.”

“Is that so?”

“yes. It seems that Sasook stopped by Wudang Mountain the other day and took a look at the traces of Sasook’s life.”

What did you skim through?

“For seven days and nights, he listened to Sasuk’s life from Master Myungjin, wrote everything down carefully in a book, cherished it, and left the shaman.”

Gagging. We talked for seven days and nights? As far as recording goes?

What kind of biography does a madman use? Are you following in the footsteps of a historical figure?

I thought he was normal except for babbling… That bastard was also an idiot.

Jinmu shakes his head.

“By the way, Sasook.”

“…huh?”

As Cheongsang corrects his posture and hardens his expression, Jinmu, who was messing about receiving the meat from Cheongwu like a bird, looks at him incredulously.

“You should have called for support.”

“….”

“If this place was really the base of the enemy, not a trap, you would have been in big trouble, no matter how privately you did it.”

Cheongsang looks at Jinmu with bright eyes.

Where is this bastard now staring at Sasuk? Poke your eyes out with your fingers… Huh? Are you really worried about me?

The worry and sorry feelings in Cheong-sang’s eyes.

Jinmu lowered the two fingers that he raised sharply.

What is this kid looking at with those eyes? My heart aches for no reason.

Of course, it was all a misunderstanding caused by the image of Jinmu in my head, but I felt sorry for nothing.

I wanted to tell you.

Cheongsang-ah, I’m not the kind of person you think I am. it’s really not perfect

However, when I looked to the side, both Chungwoo and Jegalsansan had the same eyes as Cheongsang, so I couldn’t possibly tell the truth.

“okay. Be careful in the future.”

Jinmu reluctantly nodded.

“You promised.”

“Because I know.”

Cheongsang’s nagging continued after that.

While I was contemplating whether I should hit him and cover his mouth or not, this time, Jegalsansan swelled his cheeks and complained.

“Jimmu Dojo runs around all day and night. How can the munpa and adults who are the pillars of the political affairs alliance only take care of their own interests?”

Cheongsang nodded at her grumbling.

“That’s right. Isn’t it no different from Sapa’s people?”

“…”

Jinmu stared at the two complaining. Just in case, I glanced at Chung-woo, too.

clap clap clap clap.

You eat well. our chungwoo.

Yes, you will be most comfortable.

“Sasook.”

“why?”

“I feel confused sometimes.”

I’m confused too. I’ve been nagging you since you made me a subordinate.

“Since joining Yongbong-gwan, I have seen a lot of appearances.”

“…”

“Not everyone is like sasuk.”

Of course, no one is as great as me.

But what is this guy trying to say… is he trying to nag again?

“The ones I saw were different from Sasuk. Everyone thought only of my gains. Righteousness to them was something that could change as much as they wanted according to the interests of the family they belonged to. There were no true sectarian fighters there.”

Chung-woo and Jegal San-san nodded their heads with firm expressions at Cheong-sang’s words, which seemed to have a meeting somewhere.

Jinmu seemed to know roughly the gap they were feeling.

‘Righteousness’ promoted by the political faction, ‘Lee’ promoted by Sapa.

Actually, rookie warriors of the political faction often confuse them and commit bloody acts. You will know that righteousness is everything.

Listening to the conversation between the two, the stubbornness of the old man in Jinmu’s body raises its head.

The urge to teach the truth of life to the less well-to-do children of this world boils over.

yes you should You should wake me up That’s the old man’s role.

“Tsk tsk tsk stupid idiots.”

As Jinmu clicks his tongue and mutters to himself, Cheongsang and Chungwoo Jegal Sansan look straight at him.

“Cheongsang-ah, Cheong-woo.”

“yes.”

“Do you think political parties should always do the right thing?”

“Yeah.”

“It’s just an ideal.”

“…yes?”

“You can’t blindly help people with a loss as a political faction. Righteousness can take precedence, but profit cannot be ruled out. Because they too have to live a basic life of eating, drinking, and enjoying themselves.”

“….”

“And that’s Jeong and Sa and Ma. Everyone is no different.”

“yes? what is that?”

When all three of the listeners looked shocked, Jinmu laughed.

“I’m just a Murim. It’s just to differentiate between those belonging to the Gangho. For the Murim people, there is not much difference between righteousness and righteousness.”

“….”

“It’s just packaging. When you give a gift from ancient times, depending on what you wrap it in, the feelings the recipient feels are different.”

Unlike Cheongsang and Cheongwu, who listened to Jinmu with serious expressions, Jegal Sansan’s eyes began to tremble. Jinmu’s words right now…

“The Jeongpa was just wrapped up neatly, and the Sapa was just wrapped up carelessly. No matter who sees it, Jeongpa looks good. That’s the difference between righteousness and what others feel. But essentially they mean the same thing.”

Jegalsansan widened his eyes. A dangerous idea. Jinmu is denying the fundamental identity of the political faction.

“Jimmu Dojang. Words…”

“Serious?”

“…”

“What’s worse? Does Zhuge Ga help people for no reason?”

“That’s…”

“If you can’t refute it, it’s not because you’re not around, it’s because it’s right.”

“…”

At Jinmu’s words, Jegalsansan’s face distorted.

“Cheongsang, Cheongwoo. do you know The decline of shamans.”

“….”

“Could it be because of the attack of the Four Emperors, Hyeokryeonmugang?”

“Isn’t it?”

“Of course it could be the cause. But it can’t be the sole reason. Look at the shaman now.”

“….”

“Money, that is, what happened after being faithful to it? Aren’t they being rebuilt? It is getting stronger day by day.”

“…”

“Where will the money come from?”

“The upper part…”

…is part of it, and this sasook is good at it, you bastard.

“It comes from strength. Everyone brings money and gives it to them because they fought and won against the goong and the magicians. Should I call it a kind of investment?”

Jinmu spoke slowly.

“Shall we go back a little further? Would the shaman have been voluntarily helped by the merchants if he hadn’t dealt with them? And what if he hadn’t won the fight against the Zhuge Bun family in Danjiang? Will it be the same as now?”

“Um…”

Cheongsang’s eyebrows dug deeper and Chungwu exclaimed as if he had a flash of realization.

“Everything is what Sasook did!”

Chungwoo This bastard is simple and sometimes says something nice to hear.

But I have face, but I can’t openly like it, so I ignore it for now.

“If shamans sincerely pursued righteousness, why didn’t they all reject them?”

“….”

“What about the political affairs? Where did they get the money they spread all over the place? What about the green peaks of the unmanned? Excluding this and doing righteousness is absurd. It is unavoidable as long as it is a single force. You should consider the benefits. Sometimes heartless, sometimes pretending not to know, sometimes holding hands with injustice.”

All three of them did not respond to Jinmu’s words.

Of course, I wasn’t really looking for an answer.

“Of course, there are far fewer bad guys in the Righteous Sect than in the Sapa or the Demonic Cult. because you brainwash yourself It’s because you set your own rules and try not to be disturbed.”

“…”

“But regardless of all the distinctions, the point is that the unmanned people pursue it.”

“But isn’t Sasuk transcending even those interests and helping people?”

Is it possible because it’s me?

And every time I tried to get a reward, I just failed.

At Cheongsang’s rebuttal, Jinmu felt his heart tearing again and continued.

“Cheongsang-ah, I don’t use the expression ‘ideal’ for the wrong thing. It is called that because it is absolutely right.”

“But I…”

Jinmu laughed at the sight of Cheongsang frowning.

“Cheongsang-ah.”

“…?”

“In the end, the Murim people are that guy.”

“….”

“But if you really want to change it, there is a way.”

“What is it?”

“Grow strength.”

“yes?”

“strength. At least in this Moorim, that is justice.”

“You have to have power… isn’t that too much like the Demonic Cult or Sapa?”

“You idiot, go and gather the seven stars of the government and talk about it. Will you listen to me?”

“….”

“Justice without power is incompetence.”

“Power without justice is violence.”

At the brusque rebuttal, I thought for a moment that Jinmu would beat this up.

I haven’t hit you for a while, but you say you’re private, but you climb up.

“okay. You’re right. But whether it’s justice or violence, the common interest is the same. It’s strength.”

“…”

“Before complaining, grow your strength first. Whether it’s persuasion, coercion, or the direction the political faction should go. Do it when you can get everyone to listen to you. Before that, your current worries or thoughts could not be more than empty cries.”

just like he did

Just like the past where nothing could be changed until you had power, and you were just exploited and persecuted.

At least in order to have a voice in Moorim, you had to be strong.

Is it cooperative or righteous? The strong win and the victor is justice. And all changes are made according to the will of the victor.

History has flowed that way, and Jinmu never thought that it was wrong.

Jeongsama? That kind of distinction is just made for people’s convenience.

However, the Murim people must live in the Murim. Don’t be swayed by the grassroots.

While Cheongsang was making an expression full of worries, Jinmu smiled and added his words.

“It’s not like you have to listen to me. you draw the conclusion I raised the hwadu, but it’s up to you to come up with an answer.”

“yes. Let’s think about it a little more carefully. And I will develop my strength until I can raise my voice according to Sasuk’s words.”

yes it should

Grow up quickly and approach the core of the political and military alliance.

By the way. Whether doing righteousness or pursuing it, what must not change is respect for this sasuk.

Only then will Sasuk fulfill his role as a subordinate when Sasuk unifies the government. Even Unam and Jegal Sansan joined forces. Chung-woo…

When Jinmu glanced at him, Chung-woo, who was startled, hurriedly opened his mouth as if he had to say something.

“Well, if you think about it, the reason we kill animals is to fill our stomachs. Shouldn’t killing be the pursuit of the righteousness of a Taoist or the unavoidable in order to make a living…?”

“…”

Jinmu laughs when he sees Chung-wu talking about his thoughts.

A guru who is crazy about meat.

Well, the meaning is the same anyway.

Well, how to attach rhetoric is just packaging. Having to kill animals in order to survive would be the same as Jeongsama.

“Cheongwoo.”

“yes? lol.”

Looking at Jinmu, who smiles as if he’s giving him a compliment, Chung-wu widens his thread-thin eyes and smiles in anticipation.

“I ate it all. Cut more meat.”

“…yes.”

“And ride there. Turn it over.”

“…yes.”

The idea that stupid Chungwoo has grown up quite a bit… Wait a minute.

Come to think of it, during the long-awaited harmonious and enjoyable conversation between Sasuk and Sajil, I remembered something I should point out.

“But Cheongsang-ah.”

“yes.”

At Jinmu’s answer, Cheongsang, whose mind cleared up a little, answered with a smile.

“Didn’t I tell you last time?”

“What?”

“Cheongwoo.”

“….”

“I think they said they would die if they couldn’t put it on the burner?”

“…”

Jinmu’s smile made Cheongsang’s face harden like a stone.

It wasn’t even hot, but cold sweat started to flow, and my eyes started to shake so much that I couldn’t tell where I was directing them.

“Isn’t he still sane?”

“That’s… there’s still time…”

“I’m sure… I think I said… if there’s no progress… the next time we meet?”

“The development of the bar is… just a little bit…”

Cheong-sang’s face suddenly becomes contemplative.

“Ohh? okay? You mean there has been very little progress?”

“…”

Cheongsang felt like she just wanted to cry, regardless of what Sama Jeong was at the moment.

Jinmu’s smile. Those fucking fangs.

Oh fuck really. Sasook is a young man.

It hasn’t been long since we broke up.
