Episode 74. Show your sincerity
Around noon, Namgungjin, the great master of Changchundae, ca to Namgungcheon.
“I t and heard about the hand ark. Did you set a date for going up?”
Namgung-jin is Namgung-cheon’s cousin, so he usually talks privately.
“Yes, I will leave in three days.”
“you?”
“Since it’s a chore, I’m thinking of participating too, is that okay?”
Still, Namgungjin asked for his opinion, as Namgungjin was the leader of Changcheondae.
“Let it be. By the way, what would you like to do with the green forest you et on the way up?”
Namgungjin looked at Namgungcheon with an ambiguous expression.
Five generations took it for granted that people would kill themselves when they saw a green forest. It is said to be an escort for the ascending, but since it was the Changcheondae of the Namgung family, I had to ask.
“If we are the Changcheondae of the Namgung family, there is nothing to compromise with Nokrim. But while you’re there as an escort for your ancestors, it’s good to keep on good terms with Nokrim. Even later, the other side shouldn’t be hard.”
“Yes, I think the sa as you. I will convey your will to Changchundae.”
Although Namgung-jin is the younger brother of Namgung-cheon, he definitely treated him like Sogaju.
“Thank you, brother.”
“What is gratitude? Oh! Are you going to take Yeon?”
“no. I’m going to leave it upstairs. There might be news from your father.”
“Yeah, that would be nice. Uncle will surely co to visit you.”
Namgungcheon silently nodded.
For the Namgung family, the Namgung Byeok has more aning than the family head. It would not be an exaggeration to say that Namgung Byeok, the head of the household, was Namgung Se himself. This is because Namgung Byeok was the master who poured all the abilities of the Namgung family and nurtured them.
***
May.
Pingjeong Mountain in Henan Province.
Around noon, a group of about seventy people cautiously approached the entrance of Pyongjeong Mountain. This is the top of the Sangjo Sangbang on the way from Luoyang to Nanjing.
Sohn Hak, a man in his fifties, approached Namgung-jin, Daeju of Changchun University, and said,
“Daehyeop This is the territory of Jeokpungchae.”
“I know.”
At Namgoongjin’s words, Sohn Hak couldn’t say anything more.
In fact, it was a mana shout to the masters of the Namgung family. Because there is no one who knows about greening as well as they do.
Sohn Hak, a little embarrassed, glanced at the flag hanging on the wagon.
The flags of Sangjosangbang and Namgung family hang side by side.
I suddenly get curious.
Will there be greenery to step forward even after seeing the flag of the Namgung family?
There are twenty-one guards at the top.
It’s not a lot when you consider about 50 rchants and handyn. The number of people, which was normally only 230, increased like this because they were the escorts of the Namgung family.
Ti passed in tension.
Even though the upper section passed more than half of Pyeongjeong Mountain, Jeokpungchae did not appear.
Sotis there were people in the forest, but that’s it.
Finally, the upper ranks left Pyongjeong Mountain.
Sohn Hak, who was all alone, quietly spoke to Namgung Jin.
“As expected, I am the Namgung family. The greed of Yeomdobu, the owner of the house, is not common, but I don’t see him pecking his nose.”
“…”
Namgung-jin just stared straight ahead with a calm face.
It was funny to see the number of people I liked because of just this, but I didn’t show it.
After that, several elderly rchants ca and bowed their heads in thanks.
The day went by without incident.
evening the next day.
The upper ranks were able to enter Haga Village in a narrow way.
Namgung-jin and Namgung-cheon went out to the restaurant as soon as they unpacked their luggage at the inn that Sohn Hak had arranged for them.
It was dinner ti, so the restaurant was full of custors.
Still, the two were lucky enough to occupy a vacant seat by the window.
As soon as the two of them sat down, carp soup, stir-fried vegetables, and pork appeared as if they had waited. Since it was a restaurant for guests, there was no need to order separately.
Namgungjin and Namgungcheon started eating the prepared food without saying anything.
The two of them drank tea leisurely after filling their empty stomachs to so extent. The restaurant was empty as the custors who had co in like the tide flowed out like the ebb tide. This is also a unique feature of the restaurant.
Suddenly, Namgungcheon asked.
“Have you heard the rumors about Five Bons and Ten Girls?”
“okay. One of them’s inaction is particularly good, isn’t it? They say it’s second to the Green Forest Samzone. The Moorim people are so bluffing that I can’t tell.”
“Still, it doesn’t seem like a rumor at all, seeing as the na of the rchant of Heaven and Earth goes up and down.”
“You won’t know until you hear from the rchant of heaven and earth. That’s what rumors are originally.”
Namgung-jin seed to be sowhat unreliable.
“You will find out tomorrow. If it lowers its tail like a red wind chive, it must be exaggerated…”
“There is such a thing as bravado.”
“Please. I’ve never seen Nokrim show off his bravado in front of the Namgung family.”
“That’s true, but the inside of a person is so difficult to understand. Isn’t there a law preventing such a person from appearing?”
“Are you thinking of checking the skills of Five Bons and Ten Girls?”
Although they are cousins, after a ten year age difference, Namgungcheon noticed Namgungjin.
Namgoongjin thought for a mont and nodded lightly.
“Isn’t that sothing soone has to do anyway? I can’t just listen to rumors and keep my head down.”
“I do, though.”
Namgungcheon seed to be very awkward.
So rumors are exaggerated, but the opposite is often true!
Namgoongjin said with a slightly sad face.
“Soon, rumors will spread that Namgung Sega will escort the guild. They’ll laugh at us from behind if we act like the other tier escorts. I don’t want to make that happen.”
“Don’t be too harsh. Even for later when we quit.”
“Sure.”
Namgung-jin also had no intention of deciding whether to live or die.
Wouldn’t it be ok if it was a subjugation or a gangho trip in the Namgung family? I didn’t want to overdo it with the temporary escort.
next day.
As soon as the day dawned, the Sangdan left Hajia Village.
Upon entering the entrance of Obongsan Mountain, Son Hak-su looked around and said,
“Don’t you think Obongsan will pass quietly? It’s because it’s Jeokpungchae, Obongsanchae, and fifty bobaekbo. If you just pass by here, you will leave more than 200 nyang of the hermit, and I hope that is the case.”
Namgungcheon asked Sohn Hak.
“Haengsoo-nim, have you ever seen Five Bonks and Ten Girls?”
“? I didn’t see it. I’ve only heard about it, but not many people have actually seen it. There are also rumors that since last year, Obong Tengeol has been sitting back.”
“You said you sat back?”
“yes. Usually, the owners of the rice cookers just watch from behind, but at Obongsipgeol, they said it seed like they were doing it as a group. In fact, not many people have seen the face of Obong Tengeol. It’s hard to rember because there are ten mbers, but I think it’s more because the activity period is short.”
“Then, are the rchants paying the toll on their own these days?”
“Yes.”
“omg! Are you saying you only listen to rumors about Five Bons and Ten Girls?”
“It is a rumor, yes. If you want to sink a little, soone pokes at you. Not too long ago, Sangbang Hwayang touched Obongsanchae with the knights of Lukyang. What is it? Then it broke very cleanly. For the next few years, I will go around paying tolls again without saying anything.”
“Is it true that you got hit by Five Bons and Ten Girls?”
“sure. It only confird that the martial arts of the Five Bon 10 Girls are excellent.”
“One of them is said to be particularly good. Are there any rumors about him?”
“I’m a bit young, but they say martial arts are terrifying. I heard that no one has ever received a second from him, even though he uses a bag of bakdo.”
“omg! No one got one second?”
“Haha, you have to strain and listen. Isn’t that the level of an escort warrior at the top?”
At Son Hak’s words, Namgoong Jin smiled.
It was because Son Hak did not forget what he was going to say.
In the anti, the guild continued to move and went deep into the mountain before they knew it.
Son Hak’s finger pointed to a point in front.
“Usually, there is a green flag over there…”
Before he could finish his words, a spear flew in and stuck in the middle of the road.
pug.
A piece of green cloth tied to the spearhead fluttered and sank.
Sonhak opened his mouth wide and looked at Namgungjin and Namgungcheon alternately.
Even if you see the flag of the Namgung family, it’s green!
No matter how much the Namgung family has fallen, it is still not to the extent of being looked down upon by green forests.
If that was the case, there was no way that greedy Jeokpungchae would have watched with bated breath.
‘This sounds like Oh Bon 10 Girl doesn’t care about the Namgung family.’
If Namgung family doesn’t bow properly, things will get out of control.
When I thought of that, my heart jumped.
After a while, more than twenty thieves blocked the mountain path.
Hwang Yo-myeong, who has been hiking more diligently recently, exclaid in a loud voice.
“Stop! You’re not trying to cross the mountain without Obongsanchae’s permission, right?”
Sohn Hak, who hesitated, quietly retreated back.
It’s because I didn’t want to be taken by Namgung Sega or Nokrim because I made fun of my mouth wrongly.
Namgoongjin slowly walked forward.
“I say Namgungse is Namgungjin, the great lord of the Changchun Dynasty. Who are you?”
Hwang Yo-myeong looked at Namgung-jin and the warriors lined up behind him with startled eyes.
Hwang Yo-myeong, who was only a county-level master, had nothing to do with the Namgung family, so he didn’t even know the pattern.
Although his heart skipped a beat, Hwang Yo-myeong did not back down.
Obongsanchae is lined with masters, so you can’t cringe here!
“I am called a single-hearted person in Gangho. Are you really Namgungse people?”
Namgoongjin laughed and replied.
“exactly. Who would dare to go around pretending to be the Namgung family unless they were desperate to die? By the way, how are you with five bong ten girls?”
“I’m lucky to be the one who attends Obongsipgeolnim. If you do not intend to disrespect Obong Sanchae by putting the na of the Namgung family at the fore, please be sincere.”
Still, the opponent was the opponent, so Hwang Yo-myung could not hide his tension.
Namgoong-jin, who was looking at the opponent, asked.
“I have no intention of ignoring Obong Sanchae. However, personally, I would like to see the inaction of Obong Tengeol. Are there five or ten among you?”
“Obongsipgeolnim are training in the wild, so you have to go up with us to et them. The rchant will have to wait here, will that be okay?”
Namgoongjin glanced back.
When our eyes t, Sohn Hak shook his head excitedly.
It is only natural that a whole day would be wasted if you went up and down the mountain. In addition, if Namgung-jin was injured, even if it was only one chance, it would not be good for the rest of the trip.
Namgung-cheon suggested an alternative to Namgung-jin, who hesitated with a sad face.
“Brother, why don’t you just leave today and take so ti on the way back to Luoyang?”
Sohn Hak also nodded.
“It would be nice. We have a long way to go, but we can’t relax here.”
When everyone stopped him, Namgung-jin said as if he couldn’t do it.
“Did you say you were single? Please tell Obon Tengeol. Cheoksa Swordsman Namgungjin said he would stop by on his way back.”
“Okay. By the way, what else are you going to do?”
Other work ans toll.
Namgoongjin muttered with a sullen face.
“I still have to do what I normally do.”
Quick-witted Namgungcheon smiled and stepped out.
“Look. I’ve heard that it’s one hermit per rchant, right?”
“exactly.”
“Since there are 20 rchants, can I just pay 20 nyang?”
“Yes.”
Unlike usual, Hwang Yo-myeong did not count the number of rchants.
It was because Namgoongse did not dare to engage in a war of nerves with people.
After a while, Son Hak paid 20 nyang, and the bandits from Obongsanchae quietly returned to the forest.
Namgung-jin looked at the forest with a blank face.
Seeing the thieves taking tolls from the Daenamgung family, it doesn’t seem real.
