Taejonbirok Volume 2 Episode 17
Chapter 14 – The Lazy Becomes a Target (1)
After finishing his business at Hanrim University, he moved on to his next destination.
Well, as you might expect by now, it took him a while to even move his heavy butt.
hmm?
Where did you go next?
You're quite hasty.
No, I guess it's true that you still don't understand the person called Wi Yeon-ho.
What are you talking about?
You shouldn't ask where he went next.
The right thing to do is ask what happened next.
Wow, your comprehension is lacking!
Aren't you still talking!
That guy brings bad luck!
Do you think nothing happened until he reached his next destination?
Yes, predictions are not something you make lightly.
Especially when it comes to things involving that guy.
Well, maybe what I'm about to tell you might be quite refreshing to listen to.
This is a story about a guy who treated you coldly and ended up jumping into the river of misfortune.
Huh? Who is that guy who treated me coldly?
There's that guy.
Yeah, that guy!
* * *
After that day, Wi Yeon-ho lived as a carnivore at Hanrim University for another two weeks.
“Didn’t you say you were leaving soon?”
“Ah, let’s go. I said I’m going!”
“……But it seems like you don’t really have any intention of leaving?”
“Oh, I’m really going. It’s a little late today, so I’ll go tomorrow, tomorrow.”
“It’s already been two weeks since I said that…….”
“Well, it might be a little late.”
“That’s true, but even so…….”
“Is it because of the food I’m eating? Wow, I didn’t see it that way, but you really are tough. They say the world is better for those who have more, and I’ve learned a lot by coming here.”
“Ahem, I didn’t mean it like that, I just…….”
“Just two weeks ago, someone who said it was okay to be a little late and to take it slow has completely changed his words and is now criticizing it for being late. It is amazing to see the recognition of academic diversity and the flexibility that does not fall into stubbornness, but I can’t help but feel regretful that he seems to lack a little determination.”
Moon Yu-hwan's eloquence was so dazzling that it seemed as if he had grease on his tongue, and his vicious symbolism in using that eloquence to criticize others was something I could not help but admire.
“Where did you learn all those words?”
“Well, I learned that from the con artist.”
“Okay. Then let’s rest and leave tomorrow.”
"yes."
“By the way, where did you say your destination was?”
“I told you last time. Oh my, I’m really tired, do I have to keep talking?”
“……I’m sorry.”
Moon Yu-hwan left Wi Yeon-ho's room with a face that looked like the sky had fallen.
The shock of being advised to cultivate a firm will by Wi Yeon-ho, who seemed to have no more to do with academics than a street dog, was so great that it blew away the composure that Moon Yu-hwan had built up over several decades.
Moon Eun-ji, who had been waiting outside the door, approached Moon Yu-hwan.
“Father.”
“Ahem, okay.”
Moon Eun-ji, who had been observing Moon Yu-hwan's expression, spoke carefully. If things continued like this, Moon Yu-hwan would end up sick.
“Shouldn’t we kick that savage out?”
“For now, we should just let them do whatever they want, at least as a way of repaying the favor…….”
“Then I will stay here until next year.”
“……I guess so?”
"yes."
Moon Yu-hwan stroked his beard.
It was not a good thing to make him become a secret inspector and then keep him in this manor where not a single speck of dust would come out even if he were to be swept away.
Surprisingly, he didn't cause any additional trouble since he didn't do anything other than eating in his room, but it wasn't a good thing to have someone like that staying in the house.
'I'm scared to see my disciples.'
Everyone has a purpose.
Unfortunately, at Hanlim University, lazy people were considered worse than dog poop. Dog poop should be used as fertilizer.
“Is there a way?”
“There may be no way out for humans, but there is a way out for a burdensome human being like that.”
“What are you talking about?”
“Don’t worry, the girl has already taken care of it.”
"hmm?"
Moon Yu-hwan tilted his head at Moon Eun-ji's words, which he could not understand.

The next day.
Wi Yeon-ho woke up to the sound of commotion in front of the room.
"eww……."
Wi Yeon-ho removed the eye booger.
For Wei Yan-ho, who had to practice in his dreams even while sleeping thanks to the dream training technique that Baek Mu-han had planted in him, the concept of a refreshing morning was a non-existent phenomenon.
“Why is it so noisy! Someone is trying to get some sleep!”
Since I can't openly tell you to work anymore, are you resorting to such cowardly tactics?
Wi Yeon-ho stood up from his seat, annoyed. If I kick the butts of those bustling people in front of the door and send them flying out of the manor, peace will return.
Wi Yeon-ho opened the door wide.
"huh?"
Outside the door, there were two people I was seeing for the first time and Moon Ji.
A man who looked to be middle-aged was holding a flag with the word “快” written on it on his back, and another man was standing behind him as if assisting him.
“Thank you for inviting us to the Kwai Yong Pyo Country of tradition and history. Then, what is the symbol we should be carrying?”
Moon Eun-ji calmly turned her head and pointed at Wi Yeon-ho.
"This one."
Moon Eun-ji's fingertips reached out to Wi Yeon-ho.
“…….”
“…….”
“…….”
The three men, excluding Moon Eun-ji, looked at each other in silence.
“Stop joking and give me the prize…….”
Moon Ji nodded.
“I said this.”
“……Does it look like a person?”
“It’s just something that looks vague.”
The man looked at Wi Yeon-ho with cold sweat running down his face and opened his mouth again.
“Of course we do invite people, but in those cases we prepare a separate carriage. Also, there are times when it is difficult to accompany people on a trip like this where luggage is being transported…….”
Moon Ji-eun waved her hand as if to tell her not to worry.
“Don’t worry. They also carry cows and chickens on that truck, right?”
“Yes? That’s true, but…….”
“It doesn’t really matter what it looks like. If you just put it on top of a suitcase and give it three meals a day, it won’t complain and it won’t cause any trouble. I’ll pay for the cost of moving a person. No, I’ll pay double. So please, take that insectivore… no, that human.”
“No, no matter what…….”
“Three times!”
“First of all, the rules…….”
"quadruple!"
“I will bring it. This way.”
Wi Yeon-ho realized the situation and lost his temper.
“What are you talking about! You’re going to put me on a suitcase and send me away?”
“You are quick-witted.”
“Oh my! I’ve heard that the morality of the martial world has fallen to the ground, but how can this be! Even so, I am the one who saved you, and you are selling me off like a burden!”
Even if a person is ungrateful, it is a waste of time! How could someone do something like this! Wi Yeon-ho trembled with anger, but Moon Eun-ji spoke calmly.
“I’m helping you.”
“How can I help you?”
“You said you were going to Hubei?”
"……huh?"
“Since you’re going to Hubei, you can go with the ticket office going to Hubei. You don’t want to walk all the way to Hubei anyway, do you?”
"huh."
Wi Yeon-ho admitted it without hesitation. Whether he was angry or proud, Wi Yeon-ho was someone who would admit what he had to admit, no matter what the situation was.
“You get to ride in a horse-drawn wagon and have fun, Pyo-guk gets to make money and have fun, and we get to dispose of you. It’s all good!”
Wi Yeon-ho nodded without realizing it.
“Very convincing.”
“So, let’s just follow these people without saying anything.”
“……Mom told me not to follow strangers.”
“It’s okay. They are trustworthy people and their identities are reliable. Don’t worry and just follow them.”
"still……."
“I told you it’s okay. If someone had even a little bit of brains, they wouldn’t sell you out. Even if you handed you over to a mine, they’d dig a hole and sell you somewhere. Don’t worry. In that sense, you’re the safest person in the world.”
"eww……."
Wi Yeon-ho fell for Moon Eun-ji's logic.
“Yeah, yeah!”
“I thought about it carefully.”
In this way, Wiyeonho was registered as a symbol of Kwaeryongpyo-guk.
“Then I’ll go.”
Wi Yeon-ho was given a small send-off by Moon Eun-ji and Moon Yu-hwan. The huge cart seen behind him spoke of his treatment.
“Take care.”
“Mr. Moon too.”
“Don’t forget that His Majesty the King is watching you too.”
“I’m fine…….”
Wi Yeon-ho made a sullen expression as if he was really burdened. Moon Yu-hwan smiled brightly as he watched Wi Yeon-ho acting nervous.
“Even if you ask me to, it won’t be easy for me to meet you in person, given my status as a royal courtier. So, don’t feel burdened.”
“Thank you for even just saying that.”
Moon Yu-hwan whetted his appetite.
'Surprisingly, he's very polite.'
Wi Yeon-ho asked Moon Yu-hwan.
“Are you going to the palace?”
“I guess that’s what it should be.”
“I hope we can see each other again next time.”
“Are you telling me not to die?”
“As expected, you are quick-witted.”
Moon Yu-hwan smiled brightly.
“Don’t worry. I’m tough as nails.”
“Well. Well, if it’s an emergency, you should at least get out of here. You have to survive to be able to make a living, no matter what.”
Moon Yu-hwan couldn't help but smile at the sincere concern expressed by a child who wasn't even half his age. If someone else had said this, he might have thought it was arrogant, but for Moon Yu-hwan, who knew how difficult it was for Wi Yeon-ho to be concerned about something like this, it was simply a happy thing.
“Keep that in mind.”
Wi Yeon-ho turned his head and looked at Moon Eun-ji.
“Then I’ll go.”
“Goodbye.”
“You seem very happy?”
“Do you have tea?”
“Okay.”
Wi Yeon-ho took a deep breath and climbed onto the cart. He climbed onto the cart and collapsed on the ground.
“Let’s go.”
The messengers smiled faintly when they saw the tiger on top of the luggage and drove off in the carriage.
“Hey!”
Wi Yeon-ho answered Moon Eun-ji's call while lying down.
"why?"
“I am healthy.”
“They give you a bottle and medicine. You shouldn’t have kicked them out in the first place.”
“You should also fix your laziness!”
"yes yes."
The wagon carrying Wei Yanho moved away.
Moon Yu-hwan quietly watched the scene and then opened his mouth.
“Let’s just go in.”
“Yes, father.”
Contrary to what he said, Moon Ji-eun remained motionless for a while, watching the cart carrying Wi Yeon-ho.
“Are you disappointed?”
"yes?"
Moon Ji-eun smiled faintly and began to speak.
“It’s a shame. It’s like the tooth I was aching for has fallen out.”
Moon Yu-hwan was at a loss for words at Moon Eun-ji's attitude, which seemed so cool.
‘I thought I had fallen in love with you… … .’
If not, I was fortunate in my own way.
“Okay, then let’s go.”
“Yes, father.”
Moon Yu-hwan walked slowly into the garden.
Moon Eun-ji followed Moon Yu-hwan and then turned her head slightly.
The wagon had already disappeared into the distance.
'Still, do you feel a little sorry?'
Moon Ji smiled slightly.
'Hello, strange lazy bum.'
If we pass by each other, it becomes a coincidence, but if we meet each other in passing, it becomes a relationship.
No one knew when the long-standing bond would be reconnected.
