Episode 1104 This kind of reward is worth receiving. (4)
Cheolpudeok.
The party flag collapsed and fell on the spot.
“Off…”
I was so exhausted that it was difficult to breathe properly. A rush of dust blew through her nose, but she didn’t even have the energy left to turn her head to the side.
“Tsk.”
Soon, the sound of Cheongmyeong clicking his tongue in extreme disapproval passed through my ears.
“If you fall because you are weak…”
It feels like the voice is piercing my ears and body.
“what? “Poison and memorization have to be handled delicately?”
“⋯⋯.”
“You started talking nonsense and fell asleep. Do you think the poison can fly on its own, and the memorization can even dance by itself if it stays still? In the end, it is a poison, memorized, and used by people. “How are they going to use memorization when their hands are shaking because they don’t have the stamina?”
“Off…”
“It’s not that you don’t need to train your physical strength just because you are a delicate shaman, but the more delicate a shaman you are, the better your physical strength should be. Dangga’s martial arts can be completely ruined with just a slight tremor. “I know that from the outside, so why don’t you people who use martial arts know that?”
Cheongmyeong looked around at the fallen people and turned around.
“Tomorrow, when the sun rises, we start again. “Anyone who shows up late will get kicked out.”
Finally, Dangpae caught a glimpse of Cheongmyeong’s back as he walked away and fell face down on the floor again. A voice of concern came from next to me.
“⋯⋯Brother.”
“⋯⋯.”
“Brother… Are you okay?”
“⋯⋯Are you going to be okay?”
“⋯⋯.”
“Ugh…”
Dangpae returned to his lodgings with difficulty moving his legs.
I just wanted to wash my face and go to sleep, and just fall asleep right there, covered in dirt. What managed to stop that impulse was the sense of responsibility as the head of the Tang family.
No matter how hard it is, isn’t it possible for a person of the size of a small family head of a Sichuan family to lie down on the floor of the training hall and sleep?
“⋯⋯I’m going to die, I’m going to die.”
“Me too.”
“It’s a surprise!”
The party leader shouted in astonishment. Soon, Danjan was seen lying on the bed. Tang Pae held her bouncing breasts and made a fuss.
“What are you doing? “Without a word in someone else’s place!”
“Okay.”
Danjan stood up with difficulty. He, too, seemed to be having quite a hard time as her arms were trembling as she held onto the bed.
“It’s no different.”
Danjan, who had begun, frowned sharply.
“My younger brothers and uncles are very dissatisfied.”
“⋯⋯.”
“It seems like it’s difficult for everyone to speak directly in front of the owner of the small house, but these days, people are pouring out criticism behind him whenever they have time.
“Star…”
Dangpae sighed deeply.
“What kind of soil?”
“Well… we don’t know that we need this training, but… it looks really bad, doesn’t it?”
At Tang Zhan’s words, the Tang faction frowned silently. In fact, he also understands what Danjan is saying. Even if it is an inherently necessary training, there is a form that must be followed. It is definitely not a good look for them, who are members of the Four Heavenly Tang Gate, to roll on the floor following the instructions of the three great disciples of the Huashan Sect.
“It seems like your pride gets hurt every time you hear passers-by whispering. Especially your uncles.”
“hmm.”
“That’s right…”
Danjan secretly observes the party’s behavior. He seemed to be glancing at me, and it seemed like he didn’t come here of his own free will. She must have been pushed away by her uncles.
“Could you please tell the matriarch?”
“To the head of the family?”
“yes.”
Danjan nodded.
“Most of the training that the Cheongmyeong Dojo is currently practicing is something that the head of the family can also do, right? Of course, we understand that the head of the family is busy with official duties, but even so…”
“It’s impossible.”
Before Tang Zan could finish speaking, the party leader cut off his horse. As if she didn’t even have time to think.
“It’s not worth mentioning, so don’t ever say something like that in front of me again.”
“older brother.”
“Even if I don’t tell you.”
“But…”
The party leader resolutely shook his head.
In fact, it is not the head of a small household to forbid mention of certain matters. Listening to things that cannot be said to the solemn head of the family and relaying those details to the head of the family is also part of the job of the head of the small family.
But I had no intention of giving up on this matter.
“Are you doubting your father’s abilities now?”
“Well, is that possible? “I just…”
“Then do you think that your father is just watching because he does not understand the complaints of his family?”
“That’s…”
The party leader’s eyes narrowed.
“There is someone suitable for everything. “If my father thought that the Hwasan Sword Association was the right person for this job, then all his family members would do was to follow his words.”
Danjan nodded without saying a word. Refuting this statement would be challenging the authority of the head of the family. I don’t know what it’s like in other places, but it was something unimaginable in Sichuan Danga.
After meeting the Cheongmyeong Dojang of the Hwasan Sword Association, he has become a lot worse, but from the beginning, the Poison King Tanggunak is a symbol of absolute majesty within the Tang family. Especially after disbanding the Senate and taking complete control of the party, no one dared deny its authority.
However, even though he nodded, it was clear from Danjan’s expression that he was still not convinced.
Seeing that scene, the party leader slowly tightened his mouth.
“Zan. “You don’t understand.”
“It’s not like that, brother.”
“Is such humble pride really that important?”
“⋯⋯Brother?”
Dangpae looks at Dangjan with cold eyes.
“Did being pointed out in front of people and rolling on the dirt damage your family’s reputation? “Did your face get hot from running around following instructions from the Three Great Disciples of Hwasan?”
“⋯⋯I⋯⋯.”
“There’s oil in the belly.”
Danjan kept his mouth shut. The cold gaze shown by the party leader was making him unable to move.
“Self-esteem is not maintained by wearing nice clothes or strutting around arrogantly. “Why do we feel shame when our clothes get dirty and our appearance becomes a bit ridiculous, but we don’t feel shame when a volcano we once didn’t even consider an opponent overtakes us?”
Danjan couldn’t answer anything.
“Our family is the volcano’s number one ally.”
“Yes, brother. I know. So…”
“However, the party could not accompany us on this trip to Gangnam. It wasn’t us who stayed by Hwasan’s side, but Namgung and Nokrim. Do you understand what that means?”
“⋯⋯.”
“Of course, the head of the family could have come forward directly. But… do you really think it was right for the head of the family to assist the Hwasan Sword Association and head to Gangnam? really?”
“Well, that’s not it!”
“okay. That should never happen. Then I will ask. “Why was the party unable to participate in the most important task of going to Gangnam, stopping the Demonic Cult and protecting the central plain?”
“That’s right…”
This time too, Danjan could not answer. She knew the answer, but she didn’t have the courage to say it out loud. But Tang Pae spoke firmly, as if he was pouring salt on her wounds.
“Because we are weak, you and I.”
“⋯⋯.”
“No?”
“⋯⋯That’s right.”
Danjan lowered his head.
Of course, the party elders could also have stepped forward. However, the talent that the Hwasan Sword Association wants is not just strong. He is able to coordinate hands and feet with his limbs.
If Tang Pei and Tang Zhan were as strong as Baekcheon, would Qingming really have left them behind and headed to Jiangnan? Probably not.
I was already feeling the loss and defeat of the party. They couldn’t go to Gangnam together because they couldn’t trust them.
“After suffering that humiliation… your pride is hurt now? “Is that something a direct descendant of the Four Heavenly Tang Family would dare say?”
There was anger in his voice. Danjan couldn’t even bring herself to raise her lowered head. The young anger in her voice was anger, but she was unable to refute the party leader’s words in the slightest.
“Nangong’s Sojiju, Namgung Daowi, headed to Gangnam carrying the name of Namgung on his back, even though he lost his father not long ago. He already represents Namgoong’s name. But…”
A laugh came out of the party’s mouth.
“My brother, who is the same age as him, is saying that rolling on the dirt in front of people is embarrassing and hurts his reputation. “Where on earth does this difference come from?”
“Brother…”
“Today, Namgung received the same training as us. However, they completed their training much earlier than us and came back in good shape. “You saw it too, right?”
“⋯⋯Yes.”
“After seeing that, those words really came out of his mouth.”
Tang Pae’s cold voice seemed to pierce Tang Zhan’s heart. It was unusual for a party leader to show such anger.
“Has your pride been hurt?”
“⋯⋯.”
“My pride is hurt too. But the reason my pride is hurt is not because of respect. The Four Thousand Danga of the World! And because I clearly saw with my own eyes that the warriors of Sacheondang were behind the other gates.”
The party clenched its teeth.
“Is there anything more shameful for a warrior than being weak?”
“Tongue, brother. But isn’t the martial arts we use different from theirs? We…”
“Shut your mouth.”
The voice of the party leader gave me a chill.
“There is nothing wrong with what the Hwasan Sword Association said. We’ve always gotten away with it that way. If your skills are lacking, you can develop a stronger poison and create a more lethal memorization. okay. So has our party ever reached the top position in the world?”
Danjan was speechless.
“If you can’t learn anything from the person in front of you, it’s already over. You don’t have to come to training starting tomorrow. No, not only you, but everyone else who will be participating in the training should do so. “I will take responsibility.”
“Tongue, brother.”
The party leader resolutely opened his mouth.
“But I will follow this practice until the end. Rolling on the floor is nothing. It doesn’t matter if you put mud in your mouth. I will definitely become stronger. Even if I die, I will never hear anyone say that I, who someday became the head of the Tang family, am weaker than the So family head of Namgung or Baekcheon of Hwasan.
“⋯⋯.”
“Tell that. but!”
Tangpae wriggled his dark eyebrows and glared at Tangzan. It seemed like a glimpse of Tang military evil was visible on his face.
“If there is anyone who criticizes the Hwasan Swordsman Association for doing something that shouldn’t have been done and suffering, tell them that I, the head of the small household, will punish them myself without the head of the household stepping forward. “If a person with the last name Dang acts like an animal that knows no grace, then of course we will treat him like an animal.”
“⋯⋯.”
“Do you understand?”
“⋯⋯I will keep this in mind.”
“good.”
“⋯⋯.”
“Even phlegm!”
Danjan went out with his head down. Dangpae, who was watching her, sighed as soon as the door closed.
I thought it might have been a bit excessive, but it was something that could not be helped. Now is the time for Danjan and others to know the reality.
“⋯⋯It’s not easy.”
A long sigh flowed from his mouth once again.
“⋯⋯Hmm.”
A low sound came out from Cheongmyeong’s mouth, who was lying on the eaves.
“Tsk.”
He lifted the bottle with an expression that seemed like he was annoyed by everything. But unfortunately, it had already run out a long time ago, so no matter how much I tried, not a single drop of alcohol fell.
“Tsk.”
It was when I was trying to get up with a bitter taste in my mouth.
“It’s here.”
“Eh?”
Cheongmyeong turned his head at the voice that suddenly came through. Tanggunak suddenly appeared next to him, holding out a bottle of alcohol and smiling.
“⋯⋯Everything like this.”
“Can I sit down?”
“sure.”
Tang Gunak sat down next to Cheongmyeong.
“Let’s drink together. “I want to drink a little today too.”
“It would be nice for me to drink with you, matriarch.”
“is it?”
Tang Gunak chuckled, picked up the bottle, and took a sip. Then he looked up at the night sky and opened his mouth.
“It must be hard for you too.”
Cheongmyeong looked at Tanggunak at the sudden sound.
