Episode 184. Are you friends from today?
The conduit leading to the opening.
Cheonryangji, the adjutant of Anchalsa, motioned for Lim Saseong to co closer.
“Yes, man.”
“If you’re unrelated, you’ll understand, right? How much is his inaction?”
“Do you rember when he pulled the glass from in front of you?”
“Every ti I rember.”
“It is a thod of super-elevation called empty space, and it is difficult even for a long master of the Chilpai Gate. It is even more difficult to make it into powder, which ans that you have reached a level where you can use your inner skills freely.”
“I can’t believe it. Is that possible at the age of only twenty-one?”
“If you look at the ordinary appearance, you are already a person who has reached the stage of refutation.”
“Have you returned a reply?”
“The highest level that a person can climb is called Deungbong Jogeuk. After that, all that remains is to leave this world as a fable.”
“I know the Uhwa Deungseon. You say you go up to the realm and beco a hermit?”
“Yes, but sotis there are masters who can transcend Deungbong Jogeuk without having to go through Woohwadeungseon. If you go beyond the deungbong jogeuk, you will return to your original state and look like an ordinary person. That stage is called the return of the opposite reaction.”
“her! Is that sister-in-law saying that he is a half-return?”
“Didn’t he look normal until he cheered up? Nam Cho-gyeol would still know him as the white-skinned Dal. That’s the scary thing about refutation.”
“Amazing, amazing.”
“I’ve only heard about the jurisdiction, but it’s the first ti I’ve seen soone who has reached the stage of refutation.”
“I shouldn’t even step into the burn village.”
“Good idea. I heard that the imperial family does not get involved in the affairs of the teenage masters of Murim. If they hold a grudge, it will be difficult to stop them even with a golden robe.”
Cheonryangji shook his head with a terrified expression and said.
“Today, keep your subordinates closed so that things don’t leak out. And quietly investigate him. You have to know who the opponent is.”
“yes.”
After thinking about sothing for a while, Cheonryangji asked.
“What did his personality look like?”
“I honestly don’t know.”
“You don’t know?”
“Yes, he seems to be from Sapa, but seeing Nam Cho-gyeol alive, it seems okay, but…”
Lim Sa-seong blurted out his words with a confused expression.
“why? Is there anything on your mind?”
“Seeing him casually intimidating people, I don’t think he’s an ordinary villain.”
“Right.”
Cheonryangji nodded as if agreeing.
There was a big difference between how he treated Nam Cho-gyeol and what he did to himself.
‘What kind of guy is he?’
***
Unboxing.
Sambobang.
Nok Il-chwi, the Ark of Sambobang, considers money, alcohol, and won as important in life. Naturally, Sambobang is earning money through usury and managent of liquor sales courtesans.
Wan Ja-gyeong, the head of the foreign party, spoke cautiously to Nokil-chwi, who was sitting in the seat of honor.
“There is a story that the Ark’s Cheonhwabang is trying to take over the Burning Village.”
Dark green eyebrows twitched.
Cheonhwabang was the biggest competitor of Sambobang as a breakwater between Jeongsaji in the northern part of Gaebang.
“Burn Village? Will that make money?”
“There is also a guesthouse in the village, and there are dozens of stores, so if you manage it well, it’s good.”
“Is there a breakwater you manage?”
“Not yet. That’s why Cheonhwabang seems to be trying to enter from afar.”
“Is there anything missing in that little town?”
“It is not sothing to be ignored. Even if the rchants co and go in and out of the inn, there will be a hundred people a month.”
Only then did Nokilchwi show interest.
“okay? A guest cup is not enough. Let’s see, if you have a harlot residing there, will it make so money?”
“You will earn much more than just running an inn.”
The two comfortably exchanged opinions as if the inn was theirs.
***
Nam Cho-gyeol sneaked away when Cheon Ryang-ji, an adverb of Anchalsa, visited. It was because he was worried that Yeonjeokha would bite him and hang down.
Later, when he found out that Cheonryangji had just returned, Nam Soo-kyung got angry at him for being disappointed.
When the granddaughter jumped up, Nam Cho-gyeol decided to turn a blind eye to Yeon Jeok-ha’s radio drinking.
It’s because I want to be unfair if I’m really scamd.
Nam Cho-gyeol, who was in poor health, continued to leave the cashier to Sang Il-woon.
Instead, the ledger was checked once a day.
Unlike him, Nam Soo-gyeong, who was in full bloom, worked at the inn all day long.
around lunchti.
Nam Cho-gyeol, who was looking around the inn, asked Sang-do when Yeon Jeok-ha was nowhere to be seen.
“What are practitioners doing these days?”
“He hangs out at Suicide Rock.”
“Is there nowhere else to go?”
“yes.”
“I can’t see Sukyung.”
“The young lady went out a little while ago to bring tea to the old man.”
“Tsk! I want why do you take care of that guy?”
Nam Cho-gyeol did not like her granddaughter’s behavior.
But I didn’t know what to say because I didn’t have a peer I could fit in with.
If he was good at work and diligent, he would be perfect for a granddaughter-in-law, but he was yellow.
Nam Soo-gyeong glanced at the sword next to Yeonjeok-ha with curious eyes.
“Confucius Yan, did you learn swordsmanship by any chance?”
“little bit.”
“Wow! You were a Muslim. no wonder.”
“why? Do you look good at fighting?”
“no. I was a little puzzled because he didn’t show any interest in working at all.”
Nam Soo-kyung expressed ‘I thought he was an unemployed person’.
Yeonjeokha said like an excuse.
“It’s not just playing and eating. Murim people work even if they only hold a sword.”
“i know. I saw a lot of people like that at the premiere.”
“Are there many people like at the opening?”
“Yes, at the dagwan where I worked, such people often ca and went.”
Nam Soo-kyung frowned as he rembered Nok Dam-pyeong while he was talking.
“Why is your expression like that? Did sothing bad happen?”
“Because there was soone who bullied badly.”
“Why are you bothering ?”
“They harassed because I didn’t et them.”
“Then I should have t you.”
“oh! How is it? He even punched for not eting , but what would happen if I t him?”
“Ah, that’s rubbish. Why didn’t you report it to the governnt? Grandpa would be good at that.”
Nam Soo-kyung filed a complaint at Yeon Jeok-ha’s last words.
“I dried it around. When it cos to Murim people, the governnt says they don’t know .”
“So how did you do it? Did you even use an assassin to kill him?”
“no. I secretly escaped here with my grandfather. A little silly, right?”
“I don’t know. Everyone’s best is different.”
“What do you think Confucius would have done?”
“What are you doing?”
“What if soone follows you and harasses you?”
“A friend will take care of that.”
“Who is your friend?”
“Boy.”
Along with the words, Yeonjeokha struck the sword that was lying next to him.
“Whoops! I wish I had a friend like Yeon Gongja.”
Of course, I was talking about the sword.
However, Yeonjeokha took it differently.
“You want to be friends with ?”
Suddenly, a smile appeared in Nam Soo-kyung’s eyes.
Although his words were misrepresented, there was nothing wrong with being friends with Yeon Jeok-ha.
He was mild-mannered and secretly stimulated maternal instincts.
It may have seed more so because he was a victim of a large amount of fraud.
So I cracked a joke.
“why? Do you like it?”
When she suddenly jumped in, the couple scratched their heads.
Co to think of it, I have a brother-in-law and a sister-in-law, but I don’t have any friends yet.
“Are you the kind of person who hangs out with soone and has a casual conversation?”
“Poop! that’s right.”
When Nam Soo-kyung asked Yeon Jeok-ha about the aning of a friend like a child, she laughed
.
“Oh, that’s great. But I think my grandfather would hate it if I were friends with him.”
“no. My grandfather is a warm person. When I was drinking in the past, when I saw people starving, they would bring them in and feed them.”
“So you hate ?”
“Because when we don’t know each other’s circumstances well, we can misunderstand. If the misunderstanding is resolved, you will treat Confucius well. So will you be friends with ? Are you going to tell ?”
“Let’s do it. A little bit.”
“Then, are you going to be our friends from today?”
“yes.”
“What is ‘yes’ to a friend? Please let go.”
Even so, Nam Soo-kyung raised a question as if she was concerned about the age difference.
“Oh is that so? if you let go, let go I’m comfortable talking too. It becos a habit.”
“Oh, you must be a son of a high-ranking family?”
“Not like that. In Gangho, if you are strong, you are an adult, and if you are weak, you are a subordinate.”
“Really?”
“Because it is.”
“Then Gongja-nim is strong?”
“At least stronger than Old Sim.”
“Foot! Are you stronger than that grandfather?”
When Nam Soo-kyung said, ‘I’m stronger than old man Sim’, I grabbed my stomach and laughed.
It made laugh when they said that young people in their pri were stronger than old people.
Of course, Gu Cheon-no knows that his heartache brought Zhang Yiyu, but that’s all. To her, a normal person, that scene was just a little shocking.
That’s how Nam Soo-kyung beca Yeon Jeok-ha’s first friend.
***
Cheonhwabang moved much faster than Sambobang predicted.
Around sundown, five n and won ard with swords entered the Burning Village.
They are the warriors of Cheonhwabang who ca to take over Burns Village.
White-skinned beauty Morandan Danju White Sword Joo Hwa-yeong muttered as she swung around the village.
“Small is small.”
Then Gye-Young Son, a young man next to him, said a word.
“I don’t know why the ark is interested in a corner like this.”
“How can a sparrow know the aning of the phoenix? Find an inn quickly. I have to get things done before the sun goes down.”
“I know. I went this way a few years ago.”
Along with the horse, Gye-Young Son quickly rushed forward.
Joo Hwa-young and the three soldiers diligently followed.
After walking for a while outside the village, a large building appeared on the riverside far away.
“Dan-lord, over there is that inn.”
Joo Hwa-yeong carefully examined the inn and the surrounding scenery as if analyzing it.
After that, I opened the door to the inn and went inside.
“welco!”
Sangdo greeted the guests with a flying sound.
As Joo Hwa-young and his party rushed to the restaurant, Sang-do hurriedly followed.
“Are you going to stay overnight? Are you going to just eat?”
Joo Hwa-young, who sat down, said in a calm tone.
“I am a person in the heavenly room. I’m here to et the owner, so ask him to co for a while.”
“Ah yes…”
Sangdo stepped back with an awkward face.
Again, guests ca looking for the owner.
Now, when soone finds the owner, it shakes from the heart.
‘Couldn’t the swindlers have sold an inn again?’
Sang-do ran to the main house to call Nam Cho-gyeol, hoping that such a thing would not happen.
After a while, Nam Cho-gyeol followed Sang-do to the inn.
Namchogyeol’s complexion hardened at the word that Cheonhwabang had co.
It is obvious why they are looking for themselves.
Both the inn and the bar in the big city are under the managent of Moorim Bangpa. An area without Moorim breakwater is not free. There, gangsters nad Hao Mun are hired.
‘Shanghai Village is a remote and small place, so even Haon did not reach out…’
