Chapter 73: The Lazy Man Gets Caught (1)

He turned his head at Wei Yanho's shout and his eyes widened when he saw Wei Yanho and the people behind him.

“Ugh, ugh!”

He shouted, swallowing his words several times as if his throat was choking up as he tried to say something.

“Noona! Hurry up!”

Jin Ye-ran pushed Wi Yeon-ho away and ran forward.

“Soyaaaaaaa!”

Jin Ye-ran approached Jin So-ah urgently and began to examine her details.

“Are you okay? Are you hurt anywhere?”

“Hey sister~”

As Jin So-ah cried sadly, tears began to well up in Jin Ye-ran’s eyes as well. His face was covered in scars, as if he had suffered a lot while being captured and brought here.

"this……!"

When Jin Ye-ran glared at Daeho-gun with a fierce expression, Daeho-gun felt that something was wrong.

“……Who are you?”

The subordinate responded with a bewildered look on his face to the Great Guardian's words.

“I am a member of the National Assembly.”

“Why, Congressman?”

“Before you set out, didn’t you ask me to find a doctor who could cure the mountain spirit?”

“That’s right……”

“He may look young, but he is known as a divine doctor in Muhan. I tried to bring him here with great care, but he said he couldn’t come here even if he died leaving his patients behind, so I kidnapped him in the middle of the night. Heheheehe.”

"okay?"

The Grand Prince laughed hollowly.

"I see."

Yeah, good job. Very good job.

How well you did, thanks to you, the history of Nokrim will be rewritten today.

Gooooooooo.

I began to feel something ominous coming from behind me.

“Heh heh heh heh.”

Strangely enough, I keep laughing.

They say that when something goes too far and is absurd, there's nothing one can do but laugh, and it seems like that's true.

I don't want to see you.

Still, I had no choice but to see it.

I slowly turned my head and looked, and saw Wei Yanhui trembling with a lot of veins on his forehead.

"which……."

Wi Yeon-ho took several deep breaths as if he was speechless, then shouted with all his might.

“What kind of bastard did this to my brother!”

Wi Yeon-ho's angry shout shook the mountain village.

Hosam, who made a living by picking medicinal herbs on Mt. Bokho, gulped and walked up.

“Hey, look here.”

Yeom Mu, who was accompanying him, grabbed Hosam with an urgent voice.

“But why?”

“……Isn’t this the side with the Daehochae?”

“I know.”

“This guy is talking big. Does he know what will happen if he goes to the place where the Daehochae is and falls into the hands of bandits?”

“I know, it’s six o’clock!”

Hosam took a swear word in his mouth.

“The medicinal herbs on the mountain have dried up and there is no need to eat them to die, so why are you risking your life now? Don’t you know that up there there are wetlands where medicinal herbs grow in abundance?”

“You should know. But no matter how important herbs are, are they more important than life?”

“I won’t kill you.”

Hosam quickened his steps with a determined face.

“At best, you’ll be kicked out after having all your herbs taken away and being beaten. If that’s the case, then it’s worth a try.”

“This guy is worth a try……”

“Stop it.”

Hosam got angry.

“The kids are starving at home. My wife doesn’t nag me, but every time I leave the house, she pours me a bowl of cold water and prays for me for almost a month. If it’s like this, whether I starve or die, I should try it. If you’re worried, you should go back now. Go down and dig up some bellflowers.”

“…….”

Yeommu looked at Hosam's back with a bewildered face and clicked his tongue.

“Rotten.”

Hosam was right.

Bokhosan Mountain has been called a sacred mountain since ancient times and was famous for its many medicinal herbs, but after Daehochae became famous, it became impossible to climb to the summit, which is said to be the natural habitat of medicinal herbs.

As a result, all the herbalists who made a living by digging up medicinal herbs here have either left this place or, like Hosam, have been pushed to the edge of their livelihood.

“Die once, die twice.”

Yeommu gritted his teeth.

'Besides, since no one has climbed up there in the meantime, if you can climb up, you can come down after making a big profit.'

Yeommu, who decided that he could no longer endure this, took a risk.

“Okay, I’ll go too.”

“Then keep quiet and follow me. If you get caught by those bandits before you even get up, you’re finished.”

“Okay.”

So, Yeommu and Hosam climbed the mountain carefully.

The two people who had been climbing the mountain for a long time, hiding in the grass without making a sound, began to become extremely nervous as they approached the place where the Daehochae was.

“I don’t see any bandits today.”

“Let’s see what happens. It’s a good thing for us.”

The bandits who usually roamed the mountains under the pretext of patrolling were nowhere to be seen.

“I feel anxious because I can’t see much…….”

At that moment, Hosam, who had been speaking, quickly closed his mouth and looked around.

“Hey, did you hear that?”

“What do you mean?”

“Did you hear this sound just now?”

“What is that sound?”

"fizzle."

Hosam, who had brought his hand to his mouth, fell flat on his face. Yeommu, not knowing what was going on, followed Hosam and fell down.

“Is this a scream?”

Hosam's gaze was directed to where Daehochae was.

Hosam, convinced that what he heard was a scream, began to move quietly in the direction from which the sound came.

“Oh, where are you going? That’s the direction where Daehochae is.”

“Yes. Something unusual is happening over there right now. If you climb the mountain at a time like this, you might end up with your head cut off, so shouldn’t you check to see what’s going on?”

“Hey, can’t you just go down? My heart has been pounding so hard for a while now and I can’t stand it.”

“If you want to starve to death, do whatever you want.”

“Ugh…….”

Hosam ignored the grumbling Yeommu and walked forward.

'If by chance a fight breaks out between bandits or government troops come to sweep them away, they might be able to take advantage of the opportunity to steal the treasure.'

It wasn't simple curiosity.

Hosan carefully approached the place where Daehochae was visible and stretched his head out to look at Daehochae.

“……What is that?”

“That’s what I’m saying.”

Hosan's eyes began to tremble.

'Is that a cloud of dust? No way… … .'

Of course, dust clouds are not a phenomenon so difficult to see that it would be surprising just to see them, but the size of the dust cloud they were seeing now was simply enormous.

The large mountain ash was covered in a cloud of dust. It was hard to believe what they were doing inside to make it look like that.

“Hey, hey, doesn’t it look like something is popping out right now?”

“You’re saying it’s going to pop out?”

When I focused my eyes on Yeommu's words, I saw something popping out from between the clouds of dust.

“What is that?”

“……If I tell you honestly, are you sure no one will laugh at me?”

“Tell me. I think your eyes are better than mine.”

“Does it look like a person?”

"huh?"

“I said you look like a person.”

“A, a person?”

After hearing Yeommu's words and looking again, the figure that bounced off was so pale that it looked like a person.

"no way?"

Aaaahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh!

As I heard the faint scream and the gray shape flying from afar, its identity became clear.

'He's a real person.'

Hosam rubbed his eyes several times and opened them again.

A person.

Why are people flying around like that?

What on earth is going on in there that people… … .

“Hey, it’s coming this way.”

"huh?"

At Yeommu's words, Hosan quickly raised his head.

Aaaahhhhhhhhhhhhhh!

The echoes of the screams grew louder and louder, and then a gray shape began to fly towards them at a startling speed.

“Eek!”

Then, without even being able to dodge, he was right in front of them.

Kuuuung!

A shaking as if the floor was collapsing hit them. Hosam, who was lying on the floor in surprise, slowly raised his head and a strange sight unfolded before his eyes.

'person?'

Of course it's a person.

That was a person.

But you won't find someone like that anywhere. The person who flew in from far away crashed down on the ground and was buried up to his waist.

Only the two legs stretched out stiffly toward the sky tremble.

“What kind of harmony is this?”

Why did a person fly through the sky and land upside down like this?

Oh my goodness, what if something happens in that mountain village… … .

That was the moment.

"no way!"

A man suddenly fell from the sky.

“I threw it wrong. Are you still alive?”

The man who approached the body that had been stuck in the air kicked the waist of the one stuck upside down with his foot. With each kick, the body stuck upside down squirmed like a mollusk.

“You’re alive, you’re alive.”

man.

The man, who still had not lost his boyish appearance, nodded.

Hosam opened his mouth without realizing it and looked at the sight.

A man with a magpie's nest on his head and dried tear stains on his eyes stretched out both arms, yawned heavily, and pulled out a tooth that was stuck in the floor.

"omg!"

Hosam covered his mouth when he saw the tooth being pulled out from the floor. However, he couldn't help but groan.

It's a given.

The person who was pulled out from the ground was none other than Daehogae's owner and mountain lord, Daehogun. There was no one living in this area who did not know Daehogun's face.

The Great Tiger, whose infamy was known throughout the world as the mountain range of Bokhosan, was held upside down in the man's hands, half-unconscious, foaming at the mouth and with dirt all over his face.

“Hey, where are you pretending to faint!”

The man swung his arm and threw the tiger to the ground. There was a loud thud and dust flew in all directions.

'Then, could it be… … what is that dust cloud?'

Hosam couldn't figure out what on earth was going on.

What on earth is going on here right now?

"uh……."

A groan escaped his lips without him knowing it. At that moment, the man turned his head and looked at Hosan.

"omg!"

I feel like I've been caught doing something I shouldn't have been caught doing.

The man tilted his head and asked.

"bandit?"

“Oh, no.”

"sure?"

“I’m a herbalist. I was passing by here…….”

“Herbs?”

Hosan, who didn't know what the man was asking, said whatever came to mind.

“Oh, if we don’t go up there today and dig up some herbs, we’ll starve to death. Please, my lord, save us!”

“Oh, what did I say? Just a moment.”

"……yes?"

The body of the man who had picked up the Great Tiger disappeared from that spot with a bang.

“Eek?”

Hosam was startled by the unimaginable harmony and sat down on the spot. Then, the man disappeared and appeared again in the same spot as soon as he did.

However, unlike when he left, he was holding a large mallet in his hand instead of a great tiger.

“I think it’s this one. Can you please confirm that it’s correct?”

The man threw a net to Hosam. Hosam tried to unwrap the net without knowing what was going on.

“Ugh!”

Hosam's eyes wavered.

The basket was filled with precious medicinal herbs that I had never seen before.

"that's right?"

“Yes. Yes! This is the herb.”

“Then, take that and call it a day.”

"……yes?"

“I told you so. It’s dangerous today, so go back. If you keep going like this, you’ll get hit by someone flying by and get seriously hurt.”

person?

People are flying?

Like before?

also?

“Oh, I understand.”

“Yes, then.”

As the man disappeared from that spot with a bang, Hosam abruptly got up from his seat.

Then he began to bow deeply toward the Great Tiger.

“What are you doing?”

“It’s a spirit!”

“Huh?”

Hosam shouted with eyes full of emotion.

“The gods are taking pity on us and punishing those bandits!”

Hosam was seriously mistaken about something.
