Episode 14: I didn’t say I was going yet (1)
Peace has returned to Yangju Mountain.
Ten days after the incident, Jin-san Yu visited Sanchae again.
On his back was Yooseol, who was sleeping soundly. The living quarters were noisy, but there was no sign of waking up as if they were tired.
All over the place, bandits were training their martial arts while exclaiming their prowess.
“Lee Yeop! Lee Yeop!”
“Hiya!”
Jinsan Yu, who was watching them, shook his head excitedly.
At that ti, I heard a familiar voice.
“Are you here, sir?”
It was Pungho, the lender of Heuksando Island.
“It seems that bandits these days also practice martial arts.”
“You never know when the independents will co again, right? It’s sothing that can’t be helped in order to survive. How do you feel about watching it?”
“All herbivores are monotonous and focused only on killing power.”
“These are the martial arts of the governnt army used on the battlefield. “It’s a little different from Moorim’s.”
“It specializes in group combat. Plus, herbivores are very honest. “It will not be easy for experts above a certain level to understand.”
“Then may I ask for a map?”
Yu Jin-san chuckled and shook his head.
“I’m too old for that. “I refuse to waste my energy needlessly.”
Pungho, embarrassed, scratched his head.
“It was just sothing I said once.”
“But I’m sure you’ll need martial arts skills from the martial arts. “As things stand now, there will be limits to developnt.”
“Is there a good plan?”
Yu Jin-san did not answer but turned his voice around.
“Anyway, how are the shaman’s wives and children doing?”
“It’s quiet. But I seem to be suffering from depression recently.”
“It must be difficult to adapt to sothing like this when you first join Kangho. “What about eating?”
“As you said, we haven’t fed him anything other than dumplings.”
“Good job. Now I have to et you. “I have sothing to prepare before that.”
After saying a few words to Pung-ho, he took a walk around the mountain temple.
It was a basin with a great view, so the scenery was quite nice. There was even a plum tree forest in the back.
After walking in the cool breeze for a long ti, I felt better.
It was when I was walking around the food court like that. A familiar bandit approached and bowed his head.
“They say preparations are complete.”
The mont Yu Jin-san nods his head. From behind, Yu Seol stuck out her head and cooed.
“Sanggu.”
Sanggu blinked in surprise and smiled broadly.
“haha! The elderly baby rembers my na. “It’s really amazing.”
“Then that’s great. Whose granddaughter is this? ”
Yu Jin-san entered the small hall with Sang-gu’s guidance.
It was a place he had already experienced. It was a place where there was a prison where prisoners were kept in a living cell.
Wow!
When the door opened, the bandit standing guard lowered his head. Behind him, behind the thick iron bars, was a woman sitting with her knees together.
“How are you doing?”
It was Hyunhee, a disciple of Lee Dae of the Shaman faction. She glared at Yu Jin-san with venomous eyes.
“If you don’t release , you will all regret it.”
Yu Jin-san, who was sitting on a chair, moved his granddaughter forward and held her and stroked her.
“Of course it is. But isn’t it the sa even if you release it? “I’ve already killed ten Taoist monks from the Shaman faction.”
“Demon murderers.”
“I cannot agree with that. Aren’t you the ones who ca to kill us? Whatever the reason, I can’t just sit there and let him die.”
“But…”
Hyunhee trailed off.
“We lost many tis more people to you. After all, isn’t that what Moorim was originally like? This is a world where power is law. “If you are afraid of death, you shouldn’t co to Gangho.”
Hyeonhee closed her mouth and continued to glare at Yujinsan.
“….”
“Please understand that we cannot release you. “Please tell if there is anything uncomfortable about staying in your place.”
What are so inconveniences? Even so, being trapped alone in the bandits’ den was driving crazy.
Her eyes were full of questions. What on earth is the intention?
“…?”
“It reminds of my youngest daughter-in-law. “Looking at your appearance, it looks like you haven’t eaten properly.”
As the old man spoke gently in a friendly voice, Hyeonhee’s expression softened a little.
The sight of her holding a baby and smiling kindly made her guard down.
“…Have you been eating only dumplings for 10 days?”
Jinsan Yu looked at the bandits standing behind him with a sad expression.
“Feeding only dumplings was too much, even for a prisoner. “Bring so proper food right now.”
“Yes, old man.”
It was about the ti when one of the bandits left and the first part of the group had passed.
About a dozen bandits began to file in, each carrying a prize.
Braised duck, chicken porridge, lamb stew and even fruits. Food that even the bandits would normally not eat was constantly being brought into the prison.
Hyunhee’s eyes widened. My mouth was watering and the sll was driving crazy.
But I couldn’t help but feel uneasy in my heart.
At that ti, Jinsan Yu spoke to the bandits.
“I hope you can eat comfortably for the first ti in a while. Please take off the chains on my wrists. “Just leave the door open.”
“Yes, I understand.”
Clap!
After 10 days, both hands were free. Hyunhee’s joy was indescribable.
She looked around furtively. Because now was the only chance to escape. And it wasn’t Eugene San who didn’t know that.
Sigh-!
It was the sound of a part of an iron window being crushed. Jinsan Yu made it with one hand.
Hyunhee imdiately changed her mind due to the old man’s incredible strength. I realized that there was no possibility of escape.
“I promise. I won’t force anything on you. You don’t have to eat it. However, after one al, this food will be removed again.”
She was worried about the food in front of her. It hurt my pride to just eat, and I felt like I was going crazy not to eat.
At that ti, Yuseol was shaking and screaming from Yujinsan’s chest.
“twine!”
“My granddaughter is hungry. “But this isn’t our food, so what can we do?”
There was so much food that I couldn’t eat it alone anyway.
She t Yu Jin-san’s eyes and said, avoiding eye contact.
“Please eat.”
“haha. “Thank you.”
Eugene San picked up a piece of duck at and put it in the child’s mouth.
Yu Seol continued to open his mouth as he ate.
“My dear.”
Hyunhee, who was looking at that scene, swallowed her saliva.
“There’s about half an hour left. You don’t have to eat it. Thanks to that, they only prey on my granddaughter. “Hehehe.”
It was then. Her spirit, which had held strong, finally collapsed.
Seomseomoksu quickly grabbed a chicken leg.
Her eyes rolled back and she finished it in the blink of an eye.
My mouth was full of chicken, but my hands were already grabbing other food.
“Eat it slowly. “Then I will pretend.”
Yu Jin-san’s words had already stopped reaching my ears.
As she ate food hastily, water ford around her eyes. Because it was so delicious.
When the ti ca, the bandits ca in just in ti, as if they had been waiting. They took the food back as if they had stolen it.
She, who was not yet full, watched the prizes go away with a sad expression.
“How does it taste?”
“It’s just worth eating.”
“Thank goodness. When you’re done eating, please follow . Of course, if you don’t feel like it, you can stay in there.”
Hyunhee was confused. What on earth is your intention?
But the worries did not last long. In any case, we had to break even. I felt like I was going to go crazy if I didn’t get out of this little prison right now.
Eugene San surrounded her with the bandits as if they were guarding her and moved to a log cabin.
Yu Jin-san, who was holding a child, pointed to that place with his chin and said.
“Please go in. “I will give you a al.”
Hyunhee, dumbfounded, opened the door.
A bathhouse with warm steam rising was prepared. Red petals were floating in the clean bathtub.
In addition, there were clean clothes on one side to change into.
“What is this?”
“I guess I haven’t been able to wash properly all this ti. I’m sorry for not paying attention to you until now. “I don’t want to force you, so if you don’t want to, just close that door.”
Wasn’t she famous for being neat even in the Shaman faction? This was the part that Hyunhee suffered the most. There was no reason to refuse.
“Oh no…”
She felt like the current situation was like a dream. As I soaked in the warm bathtub, I couldn’t help but gasp.
Strangely enough, I thought that this was the happiest mont of my life.
After about an hour, bandits ca knocking on the door. It was disappointing, but I couldn’t endure it. After changing into new clothes, she hesitantly went out the door.
As expected, the old man holding the child was welcoming him with a kind smile.
“Hehehe. People look different. How do you feel after coming out for the first ti in a while and feeling the cool breeze?”
“It’s good….”
“It would be a very happy thing if I could feel the preciousness of leisure that I never knew before. “It’s been a long ti since I ca out, so please take a walk.”
Hyeonhee followed the guidance of Yujinsan and the bandits and moved to the plum tree forest behind the mountain hut.
There, several neatly dressed bandits had co out in advance and were playing together.
“Your skills are quite good.”
It was a word that ca out without realizing it. She controlled her expression and closed her mouth.
“hmm. I think you might also have a talent for music. “Is there an instrunt you can play?”
“Pipe.”
“haha. “If I get the chance, I’ll give you one as a gift.”
Before she knew it, the remaining caution in her heart collapsed.
While the walk was over, Jinsan Yu and her chatted a lot.
And after everything was done.
The final destination she arrived at was the prison where she was imprisoned.
“I hope you had a good day today.”
The bandits brought so supplies.
The dirty shaman uniform she was originally wearing. And it was a chain that bound my wrist.
Hyunhee’s eyes twitched as she looked at it.
I have to go into prison again. I hated it more than dying.
“Now, please hold out your wrist.”
“….”
It felt like I had everything and then lost it all at once.
She hid both hands behind her back, as if hiding her eyes.
“Why are you doing that? Please understand that you are a prisoner and there is nothing you can do. “Hurry up and hold out your hand.”
Hyunhee beca desperate. He held on, avoiding Yu Jin-san’s hand, as if he didn’t want to go into prison.
“Well, shouldn’t you be asking for sothing? “You treat so well and then lock up again?”
“Didn’t we talk about it? I’m saying I won’t force anything. Co on in. “Are you going to make this old man a bad person?”
Hyunhee, whose complexion beca pale, took a step back and hit her back against the wall.
“I was very wrong….”
“What do you an? “You did nothing wrong.”
“If you want to lock up again, just kill !”
Her emotions kept changing. You must be in confusion.
Jinsan Yu sighed with a troubled expression.
“If you wish, you can enjoy the sa privileges as today every day. Even more. But wouldn’t it be fair if you also gave us sothing?”
No matter how much he thought about it, there was nothing he could give.
‘…no way?’
She glanced at the bandits with suspicion. Contrary to expectations, no one had a sinister expression.
Yu Jin-san, who sensed her intentions, spoke with a kind smile.
“There is no need for what you think. Heuksando also has rules. “If anyone crosses the line, I will not forgive them.”
“Then what…”
Instead of answering, Jinsan stretched out his right hand like a thunderbolt.
Deep! Puff poop!
She said that due to the sudden surprise attack, she was stabbed without even thinking about avoiding it.
“Please understand. We will co back tomorrow, so if you have anything to do with us, please think about it until then.”
