The Grand Mudang Saga [Path of the Shaman]

Episode 179

Jinmu went straight to the gate of Gwangseongjeon.

“A man of longevity!”

The urgency is transmitted to the voice and makes a small tremble.

“Uh ha ha ha ha! Is it Jinmu Dojo? Please come in.”

He’s a very funny guy.

But what does that matter in this yard?

As soon as permission was given, Jinmu slammed the door and went inside.

Jeong Shim, a long-time official, was sitting with a smile on his face, and the merchant, who was having a conversation, greeted Jinmu when he entered and went out.

I wanted to snatch Jeongsim by the collar and even threaten to vomit everything I found out, but for now, I politely occupied the place where the merchant had been sitting and just rolled my eyes.

“Jimmu Dojo.”

okay! say! hurry!

What! What contact did you have?

Jinmu looked at his heart with burning eyes.

Suddenly, all the movements in front of my eyes seem slow because I can’t concentrate, and I can even hear the sound of my heart breathing in my ears.

It feels like passing an eternity. Until the moment when his hand moved to the side and picked up a small book, slowly pulled it out and put it down in front of Jinmu, Jinmu pounded his chest inwardly in unbearable frustration.

“Uh ha ha ha ha! I never thought I’d have a secret like this.”

Talk when it’s time to laugh

“I’m not sure if this is what you’re looking for.”

You bastard.

Jinmu waited and waited for the word “Shin Gong” to come out of his mouth.

“In my letter, I asked the elders if they knew that the shaman left something behind for the main sect.”

Aren’t you skipping the course?

“I said, how are the others doing? How is the situation at the headquarters? Are the disciples cultivating well? He asked me about my current situation.”

Does this bastard really want to die…

What kind of story are you talking about?

Do you write military journals? Is running out of quantity a lifelong concern?

just tell me! If you don’t want to reduce the amount of life!

Jinmu’s breathing became visibly rough.

He was so excited that he might pull out the tongue of his heart if he heard the word ‘no’.

“But one person sent me a letter today.”

Swoop.

Jeong-shim pushed the letter in front of Jinmu.

Jinmu’s eyes tremble violently.

“If you look at it…”

Jung-shim nodded as he asked as if asking for permission.

Jinmu opened the letter as if tearing it apart without waiting.

“My ancestors told me that the shaman came to me and asked me to guide you to Bokma-dong if you wanted something. He said that anyone with a relationship will find it there.”

I also read Jinmu.

By the way, Bokma-dong (伏魔洞)?

Wasn’t it Gwangseongjeon, Block 3 or Block 4?

It’s been five days since I searched the joint. I had never seen a hall with that name, even though I had gone through quite a few places.

Let Jinmu look at you curiously.

“Bokma-dong is a place made by Master Mu-ryeong, who was a great leader four generations before me.”

“…”

A hundred years ago?

It is when the heart hole of both minds is divided.

“Pokma Cave was initially used as a training ground.”

“…”

“But it was closed shortly thereafter.”

Closure?

Are you saying you can’t get in?

“It was because the institution itself was too strong to be effective.”

“…”

“Think about it. In today’s world, why risk your life to enter an institution and train? I’d rather get a treasured sword and buy an elixir to achieve much faster results.”

What kind of elixir is this bastard? It’s not weeds.

If Shim Mani finds wild ginseng in Simsan Yugok for no reason, you know that she shouts ‘I saw it!’

And the sword? It’s easy to say.

Are you saying that you know how much money is in a sword of Gu Ya-ja, the most famous master of the time?

Instead of thrift and saving, he is like a guru with only gold attached to his brain.

That’s why you are evaluated as the weakest in the old school.

“If you say it’s closed, are you saying you can’t enter anymore?”

“That’s not it. I mean, it’s old and dangerous. No one has taken care of it before.”

thank god.

Whether it is on the verge of collapse or collapsed at all, you just need to be there.

Are you going to give in to that institution? They say there’s something inside to return to the shaman.

“Please guide me.”

“huh? Do you mean now? It’s late today, so tomorrow…”

“I’m leaving now.”

“huh? what?”

“Let’s go now.”

“No, so fast?”

When Jinmu showed a roaring enthusiasm, Jung-shim asked as if he was a little embarrassed.

“right now! Please guide me.”

“…”

Jung-shim put on an awkward expression at Jinmu’s hasty reaction, like a moth ached as he couldn’t run.

“One person. You were more impatient than I thought.”

Doesn’t it look rushed?

Even after searching for several days, I found a clue or a certain place after fooling around.

“Are you going?”

When Jinmu stood up stubbornly, his heart, pushed by the momentum, rose from the seat of the dance.

“…I see. Then I will show you where it is.”

Jinmu followed Jeongsim, who was walking ahead.

jerk jerk.

slow.

I didn’t know that the joint long-time writer could move so slowly.

Wouldn’t a soldier called a soldier have to use it if he learned light engineering?

Now, after the investigation, I had passed only a few buildings.

jerk jerk.

walk fast! No, I’d rather be different. Hey! Come on, don’t guide me to the Pandemonium!

However, since I didn’t know where it was, I had no choice but to follow it no matter how desperate I was.

where the excavation ends.

One corner of the Great Hall full of wooden seals set up for the disciples’ training.

In what I thought was just a wall of piled stones, there was a door so small that it was hard to spot unless I looked closely.

What made it so hard to find on the topic of training grounds?

And how did you put the big lock on?

Also, how careless it was, as if a family of spiders had accumulated, several layers of spider webs were blocking the door.

While Jinmu tried to calm his trembling heart, Jung-shim took out a bundle of keys and tried to match them one by one.

just rip it off!

fluff.

As the rusty key was pushed in, the lock opened with difficulty, as if it hadn’t been used for as long as the door.

And the stone steps leading to the basement revealed from the inside of the door.

The area where the sunlight shines and the area where it is not is clearly divided, and the space inside feels like an abyss.

Whoop!

The place that had been blocked for a long time is opened, and the air that fills the inside rushes out like the wind, giving off a musty smell.

“Pooh.”

Jeong-shim frowned and waved her hands, scattering the dust mixed in the wind.

“Because I haven’t used it for so long…”

How long have I not used it?

“I heard that it had not been used before I entered the gate, so it must have been well over fifty years.”

um yeah At that point, you can say it’s closed.

“Come in.”

“Um…”

No matter how important it is, I couldn’t understand Jinmu who was stubbornly stubborn like this, but wasn’t he a common benefactor anyway?

Concerned, Jung-shim pulled the flint with the previously prepared fan.

Knock knock! Roaring!

“I can’t help it. Come on in.”

just right just right

The sound of your feet touching the stone steps filled the air. I felt my heart beating in the same way as I was engulfed by that rough sound, quite different from when I stepped on the ground.

The stairs went on without a break, going deeper and deeper.

how far did you go down?

At the point where the stone steps ended, the space gradually began to grow.

Fire.

When Jeong-shim set fire to the fan hanging on the wall, an unbelievably large space was revealed under the light.

And on one side of the space, there was a huge iron gate that glowed black.

above the iron gate.

It was engraved with the words Yongsabi-deung (龍蛇飛騰), which seemed to have been dug out by a famous stonemason in intaglio.

Bokmadong (伏魔洞).

Even just looking at the letters makes my heart race.

A place created by a person from a hundred years ago. It was said that there was something inside that had to be delivered to the shaman. It’s probably a piece from the second half.

“This is the Pagoda Cave.”

Jeong-shim said while looking at the iron gate and the words of Bokma-dong.

“As you may have seen, they are nothing more than relics of the old world. It’s been neglected for a long time, so it might work properly… And it’s so high-level than I thought, no one passed the test.”

Only then did Jinmu find out why the door to Bokma Cave was locked, why it was full of spider webs, and why he had no choice but to close it.

They said it’s not right in today’s world. These bastards…

they couldn’t enter because they were weak.

Anyway, it is fortunate that the common elder who knows that there is something at the end is alive.

If he had died, he might never have been able to find it.

“Sweep ha…”

Jinmu took a deep breath to calm down his tension and excitement, then exhaled.

“Okay then, now that you’ve seen it, let’s go back.”

what? did you come here?

Jinmu glared at Jung-min with a nervous expression.

“I have to go in.”

“Has this man not heard me? It’s been closed for a long time, so I don’t know how the organ works. And since no one has been to the end of the Pandemonium since it was created, and there is no diagram of the organ left, it is too dangerous.”

“A man of longevity!”

“…?”

“So, of course, I have to go in.”

“….”

“Do you know why I found the joint wave?”

“Yeah. As a shaman swordsman, undergo the test of the five masters… No way? You don’t think of this as a test, do you?”

“yes.”

“Oh no. The test is already enough. It was already over when you saved the disciples from Cheonungbang. I have already sent the telegram to my shaman.”

Jinmu shook his head at Jeongsim’s words.

“no. For me, this is a test. Also, you must find the items left in it.”

Jeong-shim frowned at the resolute words, as if he would not accept objections.

Jinmu was a shaman and a benefactor who saved a common disciple.

It would be a big deal if Jinmu, who had a bright future after being sent to Bokma-dong without a map, had a bad accident.

Moreover, no one has ever passed through the Pandemonium since it was created.

“Look. Think again. This may be the best place to test the shaman sword, but I don’t want you to be in any danger. If I really need the stuff inside, I’ll ask for help from Jegal, who is bright with tracheal shock.”

I’m dying in a hurry, but what kind of bullshit are you talking about?

I knew how long it would take to find such a person from now on and release the agency.

“Wouldn’t a year be enough?”

Are you crazy?

Even if it’s a day, it’s a year to be able to take a look at it.

Of course, there was no room or thought to wait.

“Please open it.”

“….”

“Long Moon. I wasn’t looking for a joint just to get a façade certification. This is a common disciple who should have been saved. Being judged for that is shameful. It must be the best place for me, much less if no one in common has passed. I want to pass through this place and be proudly recognized as a shaman prosecutor.”

“…”

Jeong-shim sighed, erasing the smile he always had on his face.

“Whoa, you really are a stubborn person. If that’s what you mean, I won’t stop you.”

In the end, Jeong-shim, who decided to respect Jinmu’s will, approached the iron door and pulled the handle that operated the engine device on the wall next to it.

Flutter! The

door is half open and then stops.

At first glance, it was an iron gate that was over two spans thick.

“this. It looks like something is stuck.”

I can’t wait any longer.

Jinmu approached faster than Jeongmin and pulled the iron door.

Kiki… so positive.

The iron door made a grinding sound and was pushed back by Jinmu’s forcible force.

And the appearance of a long hallway revealed.

It should have been dark, but it was strangely bright inside. Brightness enough to accurately distinguish objects, although not as much as under sunlight.

It wasn’t because of the fan light. On both sides of the hallway, stones embedded in half-length intervals gave off their own light.

“Yamyeongju?”

eyes widen

You can’t even see the end of the hallway, but you put night wine at half-length intervals.

After all, mining rich people are different.

But now, rather than envy, greed for Yang-Yi Shim Gong took precedence.

Jung-shim blocked the Jinmu, which seemed to jump in at any moment.

why?

“Should I just go in?”

“…”

He said he would not stop it, but Jeong-shim asked again.

If you are going to stop listening, what am I doing here?

Jinmu nodded vigorously.

“Innumerable payments. I can’t help it. I hope that Gwangseongja will protect you.”

“Then see you later.”

Dig!

As soon as he finished speaking, Jinmu took a step and entered the hallway behind the iron door without even having time to catch up.

Quick shot!

As if he had stepped on somewhere, sharp objects shot through the air from both walls lined up and chased the new type of Jinmu.

“Danger…”

There was a cry from the heart, but Jinmu was already running away from the spot and running further and further inside.

The ground is soft!

The projectiles chased after Jinmu, deeply embedded in the wall on the other side.

And Jinmu’s figure had disappeared from his mind’s vision into the gloomy darkness.

Bang that.

When the engine was activated, the iron door that had been opened slowly closed, hiding what was inside. For the first time

, Jeong-

shim had to pray for the safety of Jinmu while chanting Do-ho with a serious face completely devoid of laughter.

Please come back safely…
