Episode 351:
I had a strange feeling.
I only came across rough information through records and didn’t know much about Wolhwajang.
I never would have guessed that the Mokwon family was a family that settled on the site where Wolhwajang once existed.
‘At times like this, I get the feeling that fate might really be real.’
Both in my past life and in this life.
There has never been a proper investigation into the ruined Wolhwajang.
All I had was a little interest in because the origin of the swordsmanship I learned was Wolhwajang.
Who would have known that the remnants of Wolhwajang would be discovered this way?
“.......”
A pattern of a flower nestled inside a full moon.
The sculpture, which seemed to be made by mixing various types of metals, had a mysterious magical power that caught the viewer’s attention.
‘Since this is a family that no longer exists in the world, did you think it would be okay to leave at least a trace?’
If I had been the first head of the Mokwon family, I would have removed these sculptures a long time ago.
There is no reason to leave behind any remnants of the past.
Cheon Ga-ryeong, who was looking at the sculpture, said with shining eyes.
-Does this look like some kind of device?
-Device?
-It looks like a device that operates organs. Perhaps there is something hidden inside this warehouse?
I looked down at my feet and narrowed my eyes.
Curiosity flooded me.
What happens when the organ starts working?
-Can you make it work?
-no. I think there should be a key or a sacred object like the secret stone of Muyeongsintu.
-The only person who would have something like that
would be the Mokwon family.
In other words, in order to operate the institution, there was no choice but to seek cooperation from the head of the Mokwon family.
I rubbed my chin and was lost in thought.
‘I’m not particularly an official of Wolhwajang, so I have no reason to be obsessed with sculptures like this.’
I felt a certain attraction that was difficult to express in words.
I felt like I shouldn’t just ignore it.
The problem was that in order to operate the institution, Mokwonse had to express his regrets to the government.
Is it really necessary to go that far just to satisfy simple curiosity?
You might say that you could sneak in and out by stealing keys or other items, but you couldn’t do anything foolish unless you knew what kind of mechanism was installed.
If I make a mistake and cause a commotion, my group and I will be in trouble.
What was more important was that I didn’t even know what the objects used to operate the organ looked like.
‘What should I do?’

The next morning.
As soon as the sun rose, I went to Gajujeon and met with the head of the Mokwon family.
In the end, I decided to prioritize satisfying my curiosity over saving face.
Shouldn’t we resolve our curiosity and take a look?
The head of the Mokwon family, who was cleaning up the blood stains left on the floor and wall, greeted me with a shocked expression.
“What brought you here?”
“There is one thing I would like to ask of you.”
“Are you asking me a favor?”
“While looking around Sega in the early morning, I found a shabby warehouse. “But there was a sculpture of a familiar shape on the roof.”
“......ah!”
Mokwon Ho, the head of the Mokwon family, tilted his head and let out a soft exclamation.
It seemed like he remembered that I had learned the martial arts of Wolhwajang.
“The subordinate who examined the sculpture together said that it was most likely a device that operates an engine installed inside the warehouse.”
“Are you saying you noticed it just by looking at it with the naked eye?”
“There are many outstanding talents in Cheonan Gambu.”
“.......”
“I was so curious that I couldn’t hold back. “Could you please tell me what kind of secret hidden device it is?”
“It’s not really a big secret and it’s not difficult to tell you. “I don’t know if there are any elements that would attract the interest of the Daehyup, but...”
His subsequent explanation was summarized as follows.
When the engine device is activated, a passage leading to the underground training room is created.
A space used by Wolhwajangju in the past.
“yes.”
I could tell without looking.
They are all expensive famous liquors.
Before leaving Sega, I thought I should ask them to take care of me a little.
“It doesn’t seem like there’s anything special.”
“Didn’t I tell you? “I don’t think there will be any elements that would attract the interest of the Daehyup.”
After receiving the lantern from Mok Won-ho and looking around the practice room, I quickly lost interest.
I couldn’t find any hidden devices or secret spaces.
I turned around, promising myself that I would bring Cheon Ga-ryeong and take another look later.
‘......wait.’
It was when Mok Won-ho, who had his back turned, was about to leave the underground space.
As I was sweeping the wall without thinking, I felt goosebumps rising on my back.
Sword marks left on the wall at regular intervals.
I immediately looked at them closely, just in case.
Mokwon Seju looked at me like that with a puzzled expression.
“......Matriarch. Can I move all the jars stored here outside? “I’ll try to put it back later.”
“It doesn’t matter, but may I ask why you are suddenly asking me such a request?”
“I think I understand now. Why did the first head of the family leave such a comment?
“......?”
* * *
All the jars were moved outside.
I was able to see it more clearly after removing all the obstacles blocking the wall of the practice room.
What do the sword marks left on the wall mean?
Even if it was someone else, I couldn’t recognize its identity.
‘The traces of Wolyeonggeom’s herbivory!’
It was dark so I couldn’t see it well, but since I could increase my eye strength through internal energy, there was no problem.
I moved along the wall and looked at each trace.
The first herbivorous current month.
The second herbivorous month (殘月).
The third herbivorous full moon.
The fourth herbivorous month (斬月).
The fifth herbivorous half moon.
The sixth herbivorous month (片月).
The seventh herbivorous month.
The eighth herbivorous month (暑月).
The ninth herbivorous month.
The tenth herbivorous Baekwol (白月).
The eleventh herbivorous month.
April, the twelfth herbivorous month.
The thirteenth herbivorous month.
The fourteenth herbivorous month (來月).
The fifteenth herbivorous month (朔月).
The sixteenth herbivorous moon (明月).
The seventeenth herbivorous snow month.
The eighteenth herbivore season (rainy month).
The 19th herbivorous month (播月).
The twentieth herbivorous month.
The 21st herbivorous month (敗月).
The twenty-second herbivorous first month (霜月).
Twenty-third herbivorous month (水月).
The twenty-fourth herbivorous month (天月).
‘......uh?’
When you reach the last trace.
I stopped in place with a blank expression.
My mind became confused by the unexpected discovery.
Until now, I had known that Wolyeonggeom was a sword technique consisting of a total of 24 herbal techniques.
But what on earth are these traces?
‘The twenty-fifth herbivore?’
The last Choshik of the Wolyeonggeom, which was not recorded in the martial arts book residing in the Cheonryung Bookstore, was revealed to the world.
