Chapter 337
Episode 337 Last Chance (1)
The central hall in the deepest part of Shaolin Temple is Daeungbojeon.
Now, monks clutching weapons were gathering in front of us.
And in front of them, Venerable Bangjang Jeongmyeong continued to shout his disapproval.
“Amitabha Buddha. I hoped it would be rain, but how could something like this happen…”
He couldn’t believe the situation that was unfolding at the Shaolin Temple.
When they heard the news that the opening forces had been completely destroyed, Changnyongdae’s masters came to volunteer as reinforcements. They said that their next target would be the Shaolin Temple.
The old monk next to the head of the room said as he moved his prayer beads.
“Everything that Jeonghye warned me was true.”
Surprisingly, he was referring to Jeonghye, an apostate monk, as a death penalty.
And the head of the house didn’t find it strange either.
“I never once thought that the death penalty lied. “I just pretended not to believe it.”
“Was that also to ease the burden of Jeonghye’s execution?”
“That’s right. “As Mr. Gongsun said, that is the only way to restore the spirit of the death penalty.”
“Anyway, I’m worried. Can you stop the enemies with Luo Hanjin?”
The manager spoke with a confident face, as if there was nothing to think about.
“The Great Arhan Jin is led by the Four Great Geumgangs. “It’s an invincible formation that has never been broken, so you don’t have to worry.”
The purpose of gathering like this was simply to prepare for emergencies.
At that time, after finishing speaking, Jeongmyeong’s eyes were fixed somewhere.
It was a disciple running like crazy towards this place from the direction of the entrance.
His face was pale, as if he had seen something he couldn’t see.
“Bangjangsim!!”
“What’s going on? “Calm down and tell me quickly.”
“Nahanjin has been breached and the prisoners are being massacred.”
Kuk-kung-!
The hearts of the monks who were waiting for the results dropped.
Jeongmyeong asked again with a look of disbelief.
“What did you say now!? “How long has it been since the alarm bell went off?”
Not even a moment had passed since the enemy’s invasion was announced.
In that short period of time, the core strength of the Shaolin Temple was destroyed.
It was something I couldn’t believe.
The first disciple who brought the sad news was speechless and burst into tears.
“Keuheuheu.”
“What happened to the Geumgangs? Didn’t they protect it together!?”
“…All the dormitories are dead. There was nothing we could do. Okay.”
Who are the Four Great Diamonds? They were disciples of Master Hyegwang and the four strongest monks in Shaolin Temple.
To everyone, the current situation felt like a dream.
To make matters worse, smoke was rising from the direction of the entrance. It must have been the fire that lit the halls of the sacred temple.
Jeongmyeong, who was looking at that scene, suddenly vomited black blood and staggered.
“Bang Bangjang!”
Monks came from left and right and supported him.
The mental shock was so great that my energy and blood were distorted.
But in the current situation, his safety was not the issue.
In a little while, the enemies who invaded the temple will come up here.
Ambassador Hyegwang, who had been silently maintaining his position, stepped forward.
“Listen!”
Numerous monks gathered in front of Master Hyegwang lined up and waited for orders.
Excluding the monks in the Murim Alliance and external lay disciples, this was the last power the Shaolin Temple currently had.
“Don’t be agitated! “Since ancient times, whenever there was an invasion by a foreign power, it was our Shaolin that took the lead in opposing it!”
When war broke out in the country, the Shaolin Temple always organized an anti-demonic army to help the government army.
Everyone listened to him in silence.
“We have never once succumbed to injustice or bowed down to the wicked! “We will prove our value once again here and now!!”
Basically, if you are scared by your enemy, you cannot even fight properly. No, it was as if he had already been defeated before he even fought.
Therefore, we had to somehow raise everyone’s morale.
However, it was not easy for the monks who knew that Luo Hanjin was being breached.
Because screams were already coming from far away.
“Aaaah!”
“Gagging!!”
I saw the monks running around falling over one by one.
And among them, a strange-looking man and woman were approaching this place.
Both of them had dark skin and were wearing blood-red robes.
One of them was wearing goat horns on his head, and blood was dripping from his hands.
Another woman was clutching a serrated knife and had impressive dark purple eye makeup.
At that time, seven people from Changnyongdae who came to support Shaolin Temple made a suggestion to Master Hyegwang.
“The blood monks have arrived, so get ready. “It won’t be easy, but we will take on one of you.”
Changnyongdae called the men and women in front of him blood monks. There were many things I wanted to ask about them, but I didn’t have time to do so.
How can I stop these fearsome enemies?
Half-baked power will not even help.
No matter how many people there were, in the end, the fight between the experts would decide everyone’s life or death.
Master Hyegwang put his hands together and placed them together in front of the Changryongdae members.
“Thank you. Shaolin will forever remember the help of its donors.”
* * *
Meanwhile, Yu Jin-san, who had just arrived at his destination, took a seat in a suitable bush with his colleagues.
Yu Jin-san and Baek-gyu were holding Jeong-hye from the left and right, covering their faces with cloth.
“Does that make sense? How did they already break through Nahanjin and come here…”
Baekgyu, who had scouted ahead, had an expression of disbelief.
He himself had confirmed that the entrance to the temple was impenetrable.
The place was destroyed in an instant without any damage.
Yu Jin-san, who was looking at the blood of One Man and One Woman, spoke in a dark voice.
“Well, it’s not necessarily impossible. “At least one of those idiots will be a peerless expert.”
Up to this point, I had expected it to some extent through Jeonghye’s explanation.
The guy wearing goat horns must be Hyeongyeong.
The problem was that there was no information at all about the woman with the heavy eye makeup.
“Do you really think that both of them could be Hyun-kyung level?”
“So we’re just hiding and watching. “If it were just one person, I would try to do something, but…”
If there are two police officers working together, how can they stop it?
It was truly a disaster.
No matter how much Jeong-hye asked, there was no reason to risk one’s life in a battle with no chance of winning.
“For now, let’s watch the situation a little longer.”
“Anyway, the atmosphere is different from the bastards I’ve seen so far.”
“Don’t you think the outfit is a bit different?”
In the past, a monk from Soroeumsa Temple once visited Paedomun Gate.
No matter how much I thought about it, I couldn’t see them as having the same power as him.
The atmosphere itself was different from the guys I encountered on Haereung Island.
“hmm. There was something I vaguely heard from Geomhu. Just as the Demonic Cult was rampant in the Jungwon Murim, heretical forces also exist in the shadows of Heaven. Maybe it’s them.”
Baekgyu also nodded once as if he agreed with his guess. Then I asked Jeonghye again.
“But are you sure it’s him? “The monk talked about it before…”
Baek-gyu, who was looking to the side without thinking, was unable to continue speaking. This is because Jeonghye’s expression looked serious.
A trembling face and burning eyes.
At a glance, it looked like he was looking at Marshal Cheolcheon.
“I will kill you….”
“Monk. I understand your feelings, but just wait a moment. “Shouldn’t we come up with a plan and move on?”
Above all, the problem was that the enemy’s martial arts level was not yet properly understood.
At that time, the steps of the monks stopped in front of Daeungbojeon Hall.
It was about a dozen miles away from where Master Hyegwang was.
At that time, the head of the room, Jeongmyeong, who had vomited blood a little while ago, stepped forward and let out an angry yell.
“You guys! Aren’t you afraid of the sky!? How dare you commit such evil in a sacred temple!”
A strange-looking monk wearing goat horns began to speak in slurred speech.
“We have come to take back what is ours. “Give me the money you stole from your home country.”
“All martial arts of Shaolin have been inherited from the Master Bodhidharma! “What did you say we stole?”
The corner of the blood monk’s mouth slightly curled up.
“Dharma…. wasn’t he also a person who crossed over from his home country? Therefore, the martial artists of Shaolin are all from their home country.”
“How dare you make such a foolish move…”
Jeongmyeong’s face turned red as if he couldn’t calm down.
“Your low-level people are not interested. “I will show you mercy if you bring me the unwritten messenger spirit that that Buddhist monk named Xuanzang stole from his home country.”
“Why are you looking for that from us!? Even if I had it, I wouldn’t hand it over to evildoers like you!”
The attitude was that there would be no compromise, no matter what the topic was.
This was an eye-opener in a situation where so many disciples had already been massacred.
The blood monk took a deep breath and spoke softly.
“Got it. “Then I will trample on your corpses and go find them myself.”
After he finished speaking, a terrifying murderous spirit bloomed from his whole body.
Master Hyegwang trudged towards him, leaving behind the monks who were weighed down by the force.
A warm, radiant energy bloomed from Hye-gwang’s whole body.
I decided to do my best from the beginning.
“Nothing will pass behind me.”
Even though Master Hyegwang was approaching, the monk’s face was full of composure.
“Now that I think about it, I met someone who looked like you a long time ago.”
At that moment, Ambassador Hyegwang’s eyebrows twitched.
“It was you who made my master like that!”
“Were you his disciple? But those words are a bit disappointing.”
“What does it mean?”
“In return for giving me joy, you even saved my life. Shouldn’t I say thank you? “I played very well.”
“this guy!!”
Enraged, Hye-gwang could not hold back and shot towards him.
The first blow was a powerful golden sword that instantly unleashed powerful power.
The palm of the monk facing him swelled red.
The moment the two attacks collided in the air, a huge shock wave was created.
Kwaaang-!!
“Ugh!”
Due to the repulsive force, Master Hyegwang’s feet slid along the ground.
However, the blood monk appeared to have received no damage.
He began to walk slowly towards Master Hyegwang with a wry smile.
It looked like a wild beast wondering which part of its delicious food to start with.
And in the bushes about fifty miles away from there.
Jeonghye, who had been unable to control her anger just a moment ago, was sobbing.
“I said it was Master. Hyegwang called me master….”
“Monk.” Is that a problem now? “What were you thinking of dragging us to this hellish place?”
Baek-gyu scolded Jeong-hye with a dumbfounded expression.
Even if Hye-gwang’s opponent was like that, his colleague was also not ordinary.
The Changryong members who were blocking her looked in danger from the start.
“Both of them were prefectural police officers. “This is the worst situation.”
Yu Jin-san shook his head excitedly and looked at Jeong-hye.
“…?”
“Brother. Even if we intervene, we have no chance of winning anyway. “Why don’t we retreat for operational reasons and take revenge later?”
Baek-gyu also helped Jin-san Yu.
“monk. The situation is unfortunate, but Brother Jinsan is right. “You have to be alive first for there to be another, right?”
Jeonghye also seemed to know what the current situation was.
After a while, I bowed my head without being able to do either this or that.
Wow-!!
With a dull sound, Master Hyegwang fell, dragging on the floor. He had already allowed the blood monk to strike a blow.
At that moment, a fierce and murderous look appeared in Jeonghye’s eyes.
He immediately grabbed Jin-san’s shoulder with a burning look and said,
“Later, you and Pakppak will take revenge on me.”
It was said that he would go into the limbo even if he had to do it alone.
Looking at the death-ready look in his eyes, it seemed like I couldn’t stop him any longer.
Jeonghye, who saw that Jinsan Yu nodded, began to move quickly. Toward a disciple in crisis.
Even though the opponent was cowardly, it seemed like he was trying to attack by surprise.
And Yujinsan and Baekgyu, who were left behind, just sighed.
“I’m so frustrated that I’m going to leave. “What now, brother?”
Yu Jin-san clicked his tongue and grabbed the dragon spear.
“Tsk. Still, I’m the best spear in Shaanxi, so it’s a bit embarrassing to run away without fighting.”
As if he had been waiting, Baek Gyu also pulled out his twin swords from behind his back.
“What happens to Shaolin Temple is none of my business, but you are already a member of our Paedo family. “How could Moonju run away and leave his family behind?”
“Then is there a consensus? Let’s at least give it a try, no matter what.”
Yu Jin-san and Baek Gyu, who were in good spirits, also began to follow Jeong-hye’s footsteps.
Their target was a blood monk holding a serrated sword.
