Taejonbirok Volume 5 Episode 24
Chapter 37: The Lazy Man Takes Revenge (4)
The morning dew has settled.
“Okay.”
Seomun Da-yeon got out of bed and stretched.
“The sack……”
So, sleeping outside was out of the question. I lit a fire, but the cold air penetrated my whole body, making me feel very heavy.
'I wonder if it's okay?'
So, what was naturally worrisome was the details of the story.
Even she, who is in good health, feels so heavy, so how much heavier must Lee Seol-hwa feel when she is injured?
Seomun Da-yeon got up and walked towards Lee Seol-hwa.
“Young lady.”
"……yes."
Lee Seol-hwa pulled down the blanket and peeked her face out.
'Isn't it cute?'
I didn't notice it because his expression was a bit expressionless, but when the sun rose, I saw that his face was really cute. It was hard to believe that this person was the disciple of the scary swordsman Gong Mu-jin.
But her eyes were red like a rabbit's, as if she had not slept comfortably.
“Was the bed uncomfortable?”
“Oh, no. It was comfortable.”
“I guess you didn’t sleep well?”
“……It’s not because of the bed.”
"yes?"
After saying that, Lee Seol-hwa blushed again and covered herself with the blanket.
“Should I get up?”
“Yes. I’ll get up now.”
As Lee Seol-hwa got up from her bed, Seo Mun-da-yeon smiled brightly.
Now that I think about it, I feel like a child.
“Are you feeling okay?”
“Yes, it’s okay.”
“But he was seriously injured.”
The answer came from somewhere other than Lee Seol-hwa.
“You’re not worthy of being my disciple if you joke around with that level of injury.”
Seomun Da-yeon turned around hurriedly.
'who?'
She didn't feel any movement at all, but she was caught from behind. If the person who caught her from behind had wanted to, doesn't that mean she didn't realize there was someone there until her neck was cut off?
In the place where her gaze fell, a middle-aged man with a refreshing look was standing there, smiling broadly.
“Isn’t that so?”
“Yes.”
Lee Seol-hwa's face hardened and she suddenly sat up from her seat.
“My body is still…….”
Seomun Da-yeon tried to dissuade her, but she did not listen to Seomun Da-yeon and bowed her head to the middle-aged man.
“I see you, Master.”
“You must have had a hard time last night.”
Seomun Da-yeon's eyes wavered.
'Then this person… … .'
According to Lee Seol-hwa's words, the person in front of her right now was the Plum Blossom Sword Demon Gong Mu-jin.
An extraordinary sword born from a volcano.
The dagger of Hwasan, aiming to be the best swordsman in the world in the future.
Her body began to tremble.
Gong Mu-jin was known for his cold-blooded nature, befitting his name of Sword Ghost. The story of him beheading more than ten people at once for insulting his sword is still talked about today.
“Hello, senior.”
“Who are you, young lady?”
“My name is Seomun Da-yeon of Seomun-ga.”
“Seomun Dayeon… What is your relationship with Seomun Cheonse?”
“This is my father.”
“I see. So you are the daughter of Seomun Cheonse. With such a beautiful daughter, he doesn’t go out into the world of martial arts and instead stays at home.”
Seomun Da-yeon blushed.
“Is it you who saved our lacking disciple?”
“Oh, no.”
"okay?"
Gong Mu-jin looked at Lee Seol-hwa with sunken eyes and opened his mouth.
“So, would you like to hear what happened?”
* * *
“Found it!”
Wisanho frowned as he saw a beggar opening the door and coming in… no, a beggar opening the door and coming in.

“Can’t you not act rashly?”
“I found the year!”
At that moment, Weishanho's body stretched out and grabbed Jang Il by the collar.
“Where are you?”
Don't use Lee Hyeong-hwan's office for something like this!
No, at this age, Lee Hyeong-hwan, what on earth do those guys eat to grow up?
Should I eat perennial ginseng instead of milk?
The moment Jang-il was about to answer, the door opened again as if it was going to break.
“Year name?”
“What is the year?”
Wi Jeong-han and Han Sang-ah came in, almost breaking down the door.
‘… … From now on, I should stop dealing with Wigarang.’
I had decided long ago to do this, but what kind of fortune do I have to gain by being entangled here with these people?
“The beggars of Shenyang saw a man with a similar appearance to Wei Yanhu.”
“Shin Yang?”
Wi Jeong-han and Han Sang-ah were about to pack their bags, but Wi San-ho remained calm.
“You said you were alone?”
“I heard you’re with some woman…….”
"female?"
At that moment, Jang Il shuddered at the sound of a voice coming from outside.
'Why is that lady like that?'
When he heard the word woman, Gwinangnang showed interest.
“I would like to hear more information.”
“……Isn’t it a rule not to exchange information with your superiors?”
“So you’re saying you can’t speak?”
“Rules are meant to be broken.”
Jang Il was sad.
He is a beggar of openness. This means that he is in a position where he can be treated well wherever he goes. He doesn't have to beg, and if he just goes around to a suitable sect and gets food, he can live off of it for ten years without worrying about food. Isn't that the position of a beggar?
But these people were looking at the open door as if it were some passing dog.
No, I'd rather have a shit dog. You don't ask a shit dog for information.
“Let’s head to Shingyang first.”
Wi Jeong-han was about to take action, but then two people came in from outside the door.
“What's going on?”
“Ah, Jangju.”
Wi Jeong-han looked at Jin So-ah with a smile. Knowing that she was leading such a large place at such a young age, Wi Jeong-han was very fond of Jin So-ah.
His son was older than Jin So-ah, but he still didn't look human, so it was natural to be happy to see Dong-ryang growing up so well without parents.
“They say they discovered traces of the reign of King Yeonho.”
“Brother Yeonho? Where is he?”
Wi Jeong-han couldn't help but smile warmly as he watched Jin So-ah, who seemed more excited than he was.
'This guy seems to be a lucky person.'
I used to think that I was lucky if I could just earn my own living, but seeing these talented people come to Wi Yeon-ho, I realized that I was a lucky person. That fact made Wi Jeong-han happy.
“They said it was discovered in Shingyang.”
“Ah, my goodness!”
Jin So-ah looked ready to run out at any moment, but there was a hand grabbing her sleeve.
“What kind of rudeness is this in front of guests?”
"……sorry."
'huh?'
Wi Jeong-han looked at the woman scolding Jin So-ah with slightly surprised eyes.
A woman who looked slightly older than Jinsoah bowed deeply as she looked at them.
“Hello, Eun-gong’s family. My name is Jin Ye-ran, the eldest daughter of Seongsu-jang.”
“Nice to meet you.”
The eldest daughter of the Seongsujang… … .
As the eldest daughter, she should have led the Seongsujang together with Jinsoah, but considering her attire and the fact that she had not shown her face until now, it seemed that she would not be staying at the Seongsujang.
'There must be some reason.'
Wi Jeong-han didn't delve too deeply into that part. Isn't there anything more rude than asking about someone else's family history?
“But what about Eun-gong?”
“Prince Wei Yanhu saved me once. No, I can’t say once. The grace I received is so great that it is difficult to express in words.”
Flash!
At that moment, a murderous glare emanated from Wi Jeong-han's side.
"omg."
Han Sang-ah was looking at Jin Ye-ran with the eyes of a hawk hunting for prey.
'Here we go again.'
Han Sang-ah's search for a bride for Wi Yeon-ho has begun.
'however…….'
It wasn't bad. No, it wasn't just bad, it was to the point where I thought it was too much. Jin Ye-ran's beauty was that outstanding.
Looking at her pure white face and distinct features, I doubted whether I had ever seen such a beauty before.
“What are you looking at now?”
“……I was looking at space.”
“If you don’t want to see hell, get out of my way.”
"yes."
Han Sang-ah, who had pushed Wi Jeong-han into a corner, looked at Jin Ye-ran and asked.
“Yeah, what’s going on?”
“I came here to see your wife because she is not feeling well. Since you are my benefactor, please allow me to repay your kindness even a little.”
“Okay, I see. So how old are you?”
"yes?"
“Do you have a spouse?”
"yes?"
“What do you think of our era name?”
"……yes?"
My mother's obsession was scary.
* * *
“Hmm…….”
After hearing the whole story, Gongmujin turned his head and looked at the carriage.
'You caught an opponent like a rat, someone who couldn't even handle a single blow at your age?'
It was a story that was hard to believe.
But it was a story I couldn't help but believe, looking at Seo Ju-ak, with his face like a swollen pumpkin on the roof of a carriage.
'One blow… … .'
It was a very interesting story.
“I had a good experience.”
"yes."
Lee Seol-hwa lowered her head with a stern expression.
“Did you let your guard down?”
"no."
“I didn’t let my guard down, but I couldn’t handle even a single second of the enemy. It seems that the lecherous bastard’s inaction was beyond my expectations. How are you feeling?”
"……it's okay."
“It looks like the treatment is going well.”
Gong Mu-jin, who had been quietly examining Lee Seol-hwa's body, nodded.
"indeed."
I'm becoming more and more interested.
It was not easy to treat someone who had been injured. Judging from the twisted bet, it was not a serious injury, but it was already neatly organized. If the twisted bet is treated like this, it will recover in no time.
'That's interesting.'
If you listen to him, he seems like a child, but he shows such talent?
I started to wonder what kind of guy he was and what his face looked like.
“If you had a good experience, then that’s good.”
“Yes, Master.”
“But it is also true that you have tarnished the name of the volcano.”
“…….”
Gong Mu-jin's eyes became cold.
“Your journey as a martial artist ends here. As soon as you return to Hwasan, go to Chamhoe-dong and close it for a year.”
“……I will listen to your words.”
Seomun Da-yeon's eyes widened.
Wasn't it a situation that was almost like an unavoidable situation for anyone to see? But to close the store just because of that situation? It couldn't be anything but a harsh treatment.
However, neither the public servants who gave the order nor Lee Seol-hwa who heard it seemed to have any awareness that there was anything strange.
“It is no excuse that the opponent was strong. Even if the opponent was strong, you should have fought with all your might. If you had died at the hands of that pervert, I would have praised you, but it is unacceptable that you were defeated by a pervert and survived with the help of others.”
“……I know.”
“If you were not my disciple, I could forgive you, but it is unforgivable that my disciple behaved like that. Go down the mountain and return to the volcano.”
"yes."
Seomun Da-yeon shivered.
It was an extremely harsh treatment, even for a prestigious school with strict discipline.
"by the way……."
Gong Mu-jin looked back at the carriage with an interested expression on his face and began to walk in that direction.
“Where, shall we go to see the face of the benefactor who saved my cute disciple?”
Gong Mu-jin knocked on the carriage door where Wi Yeon-ho was sleeping.
“Have you coughed?”
“…….”
“Have you coughed?”
“Ah! Seriously, from the morning!”
As the voice mixed with annoyance burst out, Gong Mu-jin's face hardened subtly.
Then the door opened wide and Wei Yanho poked his head out.
"why?"
