Episode 628 A story in the reign (3)âLetâs see.â
Flap!
When I unfolded the huge cotton blanket, it was over one sheet lengthwise and widthwise.
The outside of the silk blanket had a colorful dragon pattern engraved on it. A silk blanket made by the best chimseong master in the Jungwon region would be worth a thousand gold in itself.
And the right end of the blanket.
There, the words âLee Cheon-sang, the 35th generation leader of the Heavenly Demon God Religion, and the only demon god,â were richly embroidered on it.
âWell, okay. This should be enough.â
In fact, he wonât care if itâs all torn apart. Because what matters is the heart.
But after all, isnât a good thing a good thing? Itâs ridiculous that a man who is the leader of the Heavenly Demon Church and is worth ten thousand demons would take any blanket.
Xiliang looked around.
âItâs desolate.â
The scorched earth felt strangely eerie, as if it were a city of the dead.
The crumbling castle walls were proof of the passage of time. There were quite a few intact buildings left, but with most of the buildings falling apart, the sight of this place was like a huge graveyard.
Seoliang looked around with calm eyes and looked down at the ground.
âItâs very oily.â
Can I use it as a cemetery?
âIt would be better to build a cemetery and erect a statue.â
Perhaps the teacher will scold you and tell you to mind your own business and not make unnecessary repairs.
But I tried not to think about it until then.
I am the great Heavenly Demon who created the world of magic. Who would dare say something if they said they would erect a statue for Master? Moreover, the teacher will not click his tongue since he plans to make it himself rather than using a laborer.
Xi Liang touched the ground.
Pusssssss.
The land with a radius of three feet was completely destroyed.
It wasnât cracked or broken. It was literally close to evaporation.
Since the ground suddenly collapsed, it was normal for Seoryang to also fall headlong into the ground. However, he remained standing there thanks to the trick of levitating.
With a blanket.
âThis width and depth should be enough.â
In my heart, I wanted to build a shrine that stretched dozens of miles.
But thatâs not something that even Lee Cheon-sang would want. Furthermore, Seoryang also did not want to be shaken by such hardships.
We can erect statues for heroes who have accomplished great feats. However, if too much land is taken, the civilians will lose just the same amount of land.
A scope that is neither too broad nor too narrow.
If you build a graveyard just this wide and erect a large statue next to it, that would be enough.
Seoliang looked at the huge stones piled up on one side.
It was marble brought directly from Daeri, Yunnan. There were hundreds of marble slabs of the highest quality piled up.
He stretched out his hand.
Wooooow.
The heavy marbles naturally came to mind.
It was a large and spacious stone, with one plate weighing nearly 1,000 pounds. Even though he lifted as many as ten such marble slabs, there was no change in Seo-ryangâs expression.
It was the power of Yeomramashin, who was said to compete for supremacy in all times and times with Lee Cheon-sang, the leader of the Armed Forces Squadron who had reached the status of a god.
Of course, even that wasnât my best effort.
Slurp.
Seo-ryang moved the marble delicately and placed it on the hole.
âHmm, good.â
Seo-ryangâs fingers moved in a circular motion.
thud! thud!
Marble pieces cut into circles fell to the ground.
The circular marble was placed on the floor of the cemetery. It fit perfectly without a single error.
âdone.â
Seoyang went into the tomb and spread out the blanket.
âThis is right?â
He smiled and looked up at the sky.
âI read traces of innate magic energy remaining here. This is probably the right place. Even if itâs not, itâs too much trouble to work on it again, so just assume itâs here.â
Although he said it as a joke, Seo-ryang was convinced. It was at this exact spot that Lee Cheon-sang turned into light.
I had no doubt that this was the place where the human Lee Cheon-sang died.
Flap!
After laying down the blanket, Seo-ryang came out again and cut an identical marble board and placed it on top of my blanket.
Seo-ryangâs hands were moving busily.
Letâs go!
Marble was also placed on the inner wall to prevent soil from intruding even for a moment. Although it did not fit perfectly because it was angled, the earth and stones were melted with the flames of Guyumagong and it was firmly fixed.
âWell, itâs almost finished.â
Grumbling.
In an instant, Seoryangâs eyes turned into demon eyes.
Googoo googung!
The piles of dirt on the surrounding land came to mind.
The flames of Old Yuma Flower rose in the rising earth. The soil instantly burned black and soon became thick and sticky.
Seoliang filled the cemetery with soil that was almost liquid.
Cheeeeeeeee!
The temperature of the area in contact with the marble surface was lowered as much as possible. Because the marble is so thick, it will not break.
Seoliangâs work continued.
Kaaaang! Cheeeeeeeee!
After several rounds of work, a huge tomb made of round marble was revealed.
Cheeeeeek!
Itâs marble, but because all that was left was shaved, melted, and then cooled, it didnât have its unique luster.
Seo-ryang whetted his appetite.
âPlease take a look at this. It took a lot of hard work to make.â
Still, it was evident that he put in an effort. The color was somewhat dark, but as time went by, the gloss of the surface was coming back to life.
Seo-ryang, who was quietly looking at the graveyard, dragged two liquor bottles into the water.
âIt is the Six Heavenly Heart Pillar.â
He picked one of them and sprinkled alcohol all over the cemetery.
âItâs the liquor that Master loved so much. Now that I think about it, you didnât teach me something really important. You didnât even leave a book on how to make it, right?â
A bottle of six thousand heart liquor ran out in an instant. A heavy yet refreshing scent vibrated throughout the area.
âTsk tsk.â
Seoliang, who sat down in front of the grave, uncorked the remaining bottle and drank it straight down.
âHuh! Good!â
Xu Liang grinned.
âDid you know this? If you drink it at a freezing temperature, it will be much smoother than when you drink it plain. Well, since you like strong liquor, it might not suit your palate.â
Seoryangâs eyes, who were looking at the tomb with a smile, slowly twinkled.
âIt took quite a while.â
The luster of the marble tomb has become more vivid than before.
âI was planning to spread a blanket here in the future, right? That future was the time when I would take control of the world. Ah! I see weâve talked about this topic before.â
Xiliang rested his chin.
âActually⦠I thought it would be faster than this. Iâm only saying this to Master, but when I met Dam Sa-yeong again, for just a moment, I thought about ripping that guyâs head out and burning the entire Jungwon to the ground.â
It wasnât just something I said. This was sincere.
But he did not kill Dam Sa-yeong.
âBecause someone will get hurt.â
Human lives should not be compared with numbers.
But Seoliang knew. If Dam Sa-yeong had been killed on Mt. Wudang, the entire central plain would have been stained with blood.
And that countless civilians would have lost their lives in that fight.
Xiliang didnât want that.
âI went around and around a bit, but I arrived at my destination anyway. Iâm feeling a bit groggy.â
Seoryang, who was quietly looking at the graveyard, immediately smiled.
âI donât think Iâll be able to see you again in the future. I probably wonât even try to see you again in the first place. Iâm sure Iâm too busy and Iâm thinking of running around here and there and having fun.â
Wooooow.
Before Seoryangâs eyes, Eugeneâs figure appeared like a fantasy.
âSo, I would like to see your face one last time.â
Whoa!
As part of Panmajeongâs forces were brought in, the surrounding scenery, excluding the cemetery, changed in an instant.
New sprouts sprouted on the ruined land. Wherever the half-collapsed castle wall went, a lively town soon emerged.
The sky was blue and the temperature was good.
And next to the graveyard, there was a huge statue standing over seven feet tall.
The identity of the statue was Lee Cheon-sang. The image of the Absolute, sitting in Taesa Temple and looking down at the world with a languid expression, was as vivid as if it were real.
Xu Liangâs eyes wavered.
When I saw the statue of Lee Cheon-sang created with Panmajeongâs efforts, I really wanted to make it right away.
âIs this me?â
And next to the statue.
A huge man appeared, with his left hand behind his back and his right hand stroking the statue.
Xu Liang smiled.
âAre you here?â S~eaÊá´h the novel(F~)ire.net website on Google to access chapters of novels early and in the highest quality.
âOK.â
ââ¦Ohh? Thatâs fascinating.â
âWhat do you mean?â
âI was planning to summon the master in my memory with the power of Panmajeong.â
âI guess so.â
âBut I think the Master who is in front of me right now is ârealâ?â
âItâs both real and fake. You can think of me as the person I was when you fell headlong while climbing the Mythological Mirror.â
âI know. Thatâs why Iâm a little surprised.â
âIs that so?â
âyes.â
Lee Cheon-sang approached Seo-ryang.
His blunt expression was the same as before. But for some reason, there was a sense of composure that was felt only by Master Jeoksong and Hyeon Cheon Jin-in.
dump!
Lee Cheon-sang sat across from Seo-ryang.
As I sat like that, it felt as if Lee Cheon-sangâs soul had come back to life from the graveyard.
âWhy did you throw away the bottle?â
Xu Liang chuckled.
âI sprayed it so you could eat it. But now that I think about it, it didnât really mean anything.â
âGive me whatever you were drinking.â
âHere you go.â
Lee Cheon-sang took the bottle and poured the contents into his mouth.
Xiliang cleared his throat.
âYou eat a lot.â
ââ¦hmm.â
Lee Cheon-sang frowned.
âItâs so cold.â
âIsnât it soft?â
âItâs still a mild drink. Donât make it cold, drink it at lukewarm temperature.â
âThis is mild?â
âAnything weaker than this is not alcohol, itâs just a drink.â
âItâs okay. I like it soft.â
âI made a mountain of it, and it ended up going into the stomach of someone who doesnât even know how to drink.â
âIs that so?â
Lee Cheon-sang, who was quietly watching Seo-ryang, spoke with a particularly serious expression.
âlisten carefully.â
âyes?â
âThe ingredient is rice from Sichuan. I tried using grains from other places, but they didnât taste as good as the rice from Sichuan.â
âWhat are you saying all of a sudden?â
âIn fact, what is really important is the fermentation process. Rice and medicinal ingredients are mixed and fermented properly at an appropriate temperature, and then three hundred days later, they are exposed to air for three days. First of all, letâs talk about temperatureâ¦â
Surprise appeared on Seo-ryangâs face. .
Lee Cheon-sang was now teaching the recipe for making Yukcheon-simju. It was a silken manufacturing method created by Lee Cheon-sang himself through numerous trials and errors, and had not been revealed to anyone.
ââ¦.â
It was a strange feeling.
They said it was neither real nor fake, but looking at things like this, it seemed like it was really Lee Cheon-sang. My heart was shaken once again.
âWhat are you doing?â
âyes?â
âItâs a method of making silk that you wonât hear about anywhere else. Donât be distracted and try to listen properly. It will be difficult to memorize.â
âI understand. Letâs focus from now on. Please tell me again from the beginning.â
ââ¦.â
ââ¦.â
âIt is best to use rice grown in Sacheon. Andâ¦â
Lee Cheon-sangâs lecture did not end even after half an hour had passed.
