Episode 140: Eyes are faster than hands (3)
A gloomy alleyway on a dark night.
The demon that was brought here was already in a state of despair. This is because they were beaten senselessly by the Yin-Yang Twin Monster’s concerted attack.
He was lying on the floor with an expression of frustration.
“Off… I didn’t say I would only ask questions.”
“Didn’t you promise to tell everything you know?”
That was the price of the bet and the condition for keeping him alive.
But every question asked is answered with “I don’t know.” There wasn’t any helpful information at all.
“What can I do when I really don’t know anything? “A junior mber like only moves after receiving orders.”
“So what are the instructions you received?”
The demon took out a crumpled piece of paper from his pocket and held it out.
“Check for yourself.”
There was no special content.
All you have to do is hide your identity and raise funds until there is an order. And at the bottom was the seal of Changryong.
‘Was he just one of the financiers?’
It was impossible to hunt down and kill each of the Changryong mbers spread throughout the central plains.
What Jinsan Yu wanted was personal information about them. I wanted to at least get to know the key people. Only then will we be able to quickly take down this secret ard group.
“Where did you get this order?”
“Nothing has been decided. “Because it was always soone I saw for the first ti who approached and told the story.”
Looking at his eyes, it didn’t seem like he was lying.
In that case, there would be no more information to find out about this guy.
“You weren’t of any help at all, so there’s no reason for to save you.”
Sensing that Yu Jin-san was threatening him, the demon hurriedly raised one hand.
“Wait a minute. “There is one thing.”
“…?”
“The person who gave the instructions spoke. “There will be a summons order soon, so don’t leave the area.”
“What does that an?”
“Last ti, after receiving this order, the three mbers gathered together.”
“so?”
“At that ti, we helped the Jongnam faction attack Geukjin Gate in Shaanxi.”
It was an incident that Eugene-san also rembers as it happened a few years ago.
How could I forget that? It was an opportunity for to learn about the existence of Changnyongdae.
Geukjinmun Gate, which was the most powerful of the four factions, collapsed overnight.
Three masked people who were said to have helped the Jongnam faction at the ti.
It was already known in the past that their identities were Changryong mbers.
“One of them was you. “What are you planning this ti?”
“There is no way I would know that.”
It was the answer I expected. I was just asking this question just in case.
Are they trying to attack another Sapa faction? Or if there was another reason, there was no way to know at the mont.
However, we cannot just wait for a contact that may appear at any ti.
Yu Jin-san was contemplating what to do with the demon and sent a hand gesture behind his back.
Then, the granddaughter, who had been waiting with her partner at a distance, approached with long strides.
“Why?”
“Just give this guy a few gold coins.”
Yu Seol rummaged around in the bundle he was carrying on his shoulder and pulled it out again.
“three.”
Dogwi, who had suddenly accepted the three gold coins, blinked and muttered.
“Why are you doing this to …”
Jin-san Yu gave the answer.
“Like Nobu said, I will spare your life. “With that amount, there will be no problem in making a living, so abolish Danjeon and leave Gangho.”
Of all the Changryong mbers I had ever encountered, he was the most normal person. Relatively speaking.
Moreover, I couldn’t help but admire his attitude of confessing everything he knew as promised.
But it was impossible to just let it go. If you do that, we will et as enemies again soday.
Leaving no regrets behind was an important rule of survival in the Gangho.
“….”
The demon hesitated for a mont.
If you abolish the dantian, it ans that you lose all your internal energy and return to being an ordinary person.
How easy would it be to give up the martial arts that you have worked so hard to achieve?
‘Damn it… if only the vagina wasn’t there with .’
If it was just Yang-gae, they would have tried to stick together or run away, but as long as Yin-gae was with them, it was out of the question.
The demon’s worries did not last long. Because the result was decided from the beginning.
What need is there to lose one’s life in addition to one’s martial arts skills? Moreover, with just three gold coins, you can enjoy the rest of your life to so extent.
Gritting his teeth, he struck the area below his navel with his fingertip.
Phew-!!
“Ugh!”
The demon’s complexion suddenly turned pale.
It has to be that way since Danjeon’s inner power is dissipating.
Is it because the body is out of balance? In an instant, his face seed to have aged ten years.
“Well thought out. “Life is precious to everyone.”
“…Can I leave like this?”
“Then do you want to stay here with us? “Just enjoy whatever you are doing in a quiet area.”
After receiving permission, the demon nodded once and turned his back.
Was it because he looked pitiful with his shoulders drooping? I couldn’t take my eyes off my granddaughter with an expression of pity on her face.
“Why are you staring so intently?”
“…Poor. “You lost all your money and your martial arts skills.”
“Are you serious? “Didn’t you hit hard earlier?”
“I was just helping my grandfather.”
How can you not know your granddaughter’s feelings? Jinsan Yu’s face had a faint smile on his face.
“It’s actually better for that guy. If they had t us in a different way, they would have lost their lives…”
He was the first mber of the Changryong Team to survive after eting the Yin-Yang Twin Monsters.
Unlike the others, I made an exception because they showed an effort to cooperate, but if I had t them on the battlefield, how would I have saved them?
Now all that was left was compensation for the even hand.
When Yu Jin-san made a gesture, he put his hands together and approached.
“You and I seed to get along quite well earlier.”
“Thank you for your kind words. “I really did my best.”
“I know. This is yours, so take it. “As promised, we will do the work with the money we earned.”
What was given to him was ten gold coins. It was a huge sum of money that I could not spend on my own, even if I spent it until I died.
“Thank you. “I will never forget this grace until I die.”
“What is grace? It’s just fair compensation. And that’s it.”
“…yes?”
“You don’t look young, but now you live a life of generosity. “Money is nice, but it’s not sothing you can take with you to the grave.”
“I will definitely keep that in mind.”
Jinsan Yu seed to have finished his business and motioned for his partner to go.
The sight of his back as he walked away was completely opposite to that of a demon.
Isn’t it like dancing with your shoulders lifted? I can’t help but feel good because I’ve done my part.
I couldn’t help but laugh at the sight of my granddaughter watching with a happy smile.
“Grandpa. But what should we do with this money now?”
The amount of money that Baek-gyu had drained from the clan’s surplus funds had increased by more than seven tis.
If financial power is added to Paedomun, where outstanding talents are flowing in, growth will gain wings. I was thinking of passing it on to them.
Support is not provided solely through generosity. Jinsan Yu was looking into the distant future and drawing a big picture of his own.
However, she cannot tell the truth to her granddaughter, who is full of expectations.
“What does Seol want to do? If there’s anything you want, just say it. “Grandpa will listen to everything.”
“Hmm~ Should I buy the kids sothing delicious?”
He was probably referring to children of his age who escaped from Mt. Amisan. Now that I think about it, didn’t my granddaughter even give each of her nas?
The granddaughter’s warm heart and desire to take care of the people around her was truly remarkable.
With just one or two silver coins, it would be enough to buy snacks for all of Paedomun’s family. There was no reason to refuse.
“Well thought out. “I’ll have to buy a lot, so I guess I can order it from Hohyeon’s market and have them bring it to .”
“Hi-Hi. Let’s go quickly, grandpa.”
* * *
Moonju’s office within Paedomun Gate.
Yoo Seol ca alone and placed the bundle he was carrying on his shoulder on the table.
“Please bring this to uncle.”
With a heavy sound, a pile of hermits appeared. Where is that? There seed to be dozens of gold coins scattered about.
Baek-gyu forgot his face and opened his eyes as if they were torn apart.
“…Seol Seol, what is all this?”
“My grandpa won it all.”
What on earth happened?
The Eugene San he rembers was not a person who liked gambling. But you took all of the devil’s funds?
Baek-gyu was speechless with an expression of bewildernt.
It would be more realistic to say that he committed robbery against a demon. But that wasn’t a possibility either. Because the Eugene San he knew did not have the personality to do such a thing without justification.
“….”
Baek-gyu, who had been staring at the bundle of money, looked at it with his hand.
It was so much money that the clan didn’t have to worry about money for the ti being.
As the owner of the house, how could you not be happy? The family had already grown so large that it was difficult to relax.
Even so, all of my worries disappeared the mont I was about to request financial support from the Apostolic Alliance.
“What kind of windfall is this all of a sudden? “I have once again received great favor from you.”
“Are you okay, uncle?”
Baek-gyu lifted the snowflake with both large hands and twirled it around.
“Of course it’s fine, boy. Perhaps Seol, you helped your brother? great job!”
“Hi-Hi.”
Yu Seol, who received praise, couldn’t help but smile as if he was in a good mood.
“By the way, where did your brother go?”
“I was captured by the old man.”
Among the adults in Paedomun, there is no one who is not bald.
However, among them, there was only one person whom the nephew addressed in this way.
Baek-gyu sighed with a sad expression.
“Well… I guess I’ll have to postpone saying thank you for a while.”
* * *
“Co on, put down!”
Jinsan Yu was clinging to soone’s shoulder and stamping his feet.
It was Jeonghye, an apostate monk. I couldn’t co to my senses because they rushed at as soon as they saw .
It was an awkward situation because even the granddaughter he trusted ran away right away.
“Are you going to play with today?”
Jin-san also knew it well. Jeonghye is not doing this with bad intentions.
Although he was not ntally sound, he was a person with a pure heart than anyone else.
But I couldn’t help it being annoying and annoying.
“I’m not old enough to be doing this now. “Ask my granddaughter to go and play.”
“The snow is so scary! What if you hit ? “I want to play with my brother~”
It was absolutely crazy. No matter how much I said, it was the sa.
“What on earth am I doing with you?”
“don’t worry. “I’ll tell you sothing fun!”
“Why am I worried…”
Yu Jin-san opened his mouth without saying anything. This is because his body floated into the air. Jeonghye caught it and threw it.
It was rising endlessly, as if it were piercing the clouds.
“Ahh! “What are you doing now, you crazy idiot?”
Even though he was a martial arts expert, he probably wouldn’t fall, but he could have gotten hurt at this height.
In the far distance on the ground, Jeonghye was waving her hands.
Yu Jin-san, whose stomach felt cold, protected his whole body with energy and prepared for impact.
And after a while, sothing unbelievable happened.
“…?”
Yujinsan’s new model stopped in midair. To be exact, it was a class height above Jeonghye’s head.
He continued to wave his hands and tie himself in the air.
“Brother, from now on we will walk the sa way!”
Walking in the air? It sounded crazy, but Jinsan Yu tried to imitate his steps once. If I refused, I didn’t know what else the distracted monk would do.
Yu Jin-san, who was floating in the air like that, moved his feet following Jeong-hye’s movents below. A slow yet strange gait, as if pushing against the current of the water.
After moving like that a few tis, Yu Jin-san’s eyes opened brightly.
‘…Surely this new law?’
