Taejonbirok Volume 3 Episode 2

Chapter 17 – The Sorrow of the Sloth (2)

Peng Do-geuk swallowed dry saliva.

The man who walked in was a man who looked attractive to everyone. He was a man with a whirlwind spirit who literally looked like he came out of a painting.

However, Peng Do-geuk couldn't readily develop a liking for the person just by looking at his impression. The background of the person in front of him was too great to develop a liking for him.

The divine investigator Jo Hyeon

A soldier of the Jeongmu Alliance, and considered to be the leader of the Jeongmu Alliance.

A person who is said to have everything in the world in his head and everything in the world moves according to his will.

In front of that huge fame and achievements, Peng Do-geuk just wanted to run away.

'Why am I here?'

This situation didn't seem real.

“Sit comfortably.”

Jo Hyun smiled brightly and pointed to a seat.

Peng Do-geuk sat down stiffly, unable to give a proper answer.

The new detective also sat down in his seat and opened his mouth in a very quiet but powerful voice.

“What did you say you saw in the green forest?”

Peng Do-geuk explained everything he had seen in detail. After hearing Peng Do-geuk’s explanation, the divine magician lightly tapped the desk with an expression of interest.

“Are you sure what you said is correct?”

Peng Do-geuk nodded his head several times with a nervous face.

There was no way he could lie when he was suddenly summoned to the military temple and was in a daze.

“It is exactly as I saw it.”

The new detective looked at Peng Do-geuk with clear and transparent eyes. There was not a single trace of falsehood in Peng Do-geuk’s eyes.

“Forgive my rudeness. I don’t think you would have lied. However, if what you said is true, there is a high probability that something bigger is going on than you think, so I decided to check.”

“How rude. That is absolutely outrageous.”

Jo Hyun nodded lowly.

“If that’s true, then it’s a stroke of luck that you’re here.”

“What are you talking about?”

“The villains of the Green Forest who chased you are most likely the Ten Green Forest Swordsmen.”

“Green Forest Ten Swords!”

Peng Do-geuk screamed in horror.

The Green Forest Ten Swords!

Doesn't this mean the direct assassination squad of the Nokrim 18chae Chaeju?

How many unmanned beings have become slaves under their hands?

'It was somehow scary.'

Peng Do-geuk unconsciously raised his hand and wrapped it around his neck. It was fortunate that his neck was still attached.

“Fortunately, I think I was able to survive because I got help.”

“I’ll take care of the Kwai Ryong Pyo-guk. Thanks to that, I can uncover a big conspiracy. The problem isn’t Kwai Ryong Pyo-guk, but the young man who helped you there…….”

A look of deep sorrow settled on the detective's face.

If it was the Nokrim Sipgyeom, it was an elite of the Nokrim that could easily make even the greatest disciples of any sect face the King of Hell. Peng Do-geuk was also a promising talent of the Habuk Peng family, but under normal circumstances, it would not have been easy for even one of them to handle it.

'You say you fought those guys and beat them up unilaterally?'

If it is true that he was of a similar age to Pengduo, then it was the emergence of a tremendous divinity.

“What did he say his name was?”

“It was called Wiyeonho.”

“It’s Wei Yan Ho……”

The detective's eyebrows twitched.

There was a name like that in the information I received from Open a while ago. I had excluded it because it seemed so absurd, but since it came from two places, I had to consider it credible.

'Then I guess we should consider that the second son of the Guangdong Wei family has really returned. After five years of inaction… … Even though it is said that there is no dog under a tiger husband, isn't this too much?'

Even the eldest son of the Guangdong Wei family, Cheokmageom (斥魔劍) Wei Sanho, was considered a genius among geniuses who had no rivals of the same age. However, if the information about Peng Dogeuk and Gaebo was true, Wei Yanho, the second son, should have surpassed even Wei Sanho.

'Guangdong Weijia could be the center of the typhoon. The question is, why is the person who showed up after five years not returning home but heading to Hubei? … .'

“Where did he say he was going?”

“It was called Seongsujang.”

“I have a favor to ask of you.”

“Please give your order.”

After a brief pause, Shin Gi-su opened his mouth.

“I guess that young man is the one who’s being targeted. Can you keep an eye on him?”

“Did you say surveillance?”

When Shin Gi-su saw the harshness in Peng Do-geuk’s eyes, he realized that he had made a mistake. The word surveillance was enough to give a negative feeling to a young man of this age.

“I made a mistake. Rather than surveillance, we need a little more information on him. It would be good to send our own personnel, but you are the only one in the group who can identify him right now.”

Peng Do-geuk looked at Shin Gi-su-sa with a blank expression.

You want me to see Wei Yanho again?

Just being with him for a mere hour or so made my heart flutter, not to mention draining my mind. Seeing him again sounded like telling me to jump into a pit of fire carrying a torch.

"that is……."

“This is for Maeng. No, this is for the martial arts world. There is no one else who can do this job but you. Please, I beg you.”

Peng Do-geuk clenched his fist.

“Is it a consultation?”

“That’s right.”

“I will do it.”

The new investigator smiled faintly.

“I will tell the Habukpangga. Please leave as soon as possible.”

“Yes, sir.”

Shin Gi-su smiled happily as he watched Peng Do-geuk leave the military battle with firm steps.

'What a nice young man.'

I really like Mujaedo and Simseongdo. If they continue to grow like this, they will grow into pillars that will support the martial arts world.

However, Shin Gi-su had no idea that he was now throwing the pillar of the future martial arts world into the mud.

If he had known what kind of person Wi Yeon-ho was, if he had known what would happen to Peng Do-geuk because Shin Gi-su sent him to Wi Yeon-ho, he would never have sent Peng Do-geuk to Wi Yeon-ho.

Later, Shin Gi-su hit the ground and regretted it, but it was something he couldn't know now.

'It's a green forest… … .'

The detective's eyes lit up.

Something was definitely going on. The imperial family's recent movements had been unusual, and there had been unsettling movements in the green forest as well.

'Where is the mastermind?'

The eyes of Shin Gi-su-sa Jo Hyeon, a soldier of the Sungcheon Jeongmu Alliance who moves with the world's situation in mind, closed gently.

Wei Yanhu looked around. A large, neatly decorated room was presented to him. There was no luxurious furniture to be seen, but it was a room that was neatly decorated, and you could tell that a lot of work had gone into it.

“It seems like life is better than I thought?”

The house was shabby, but it was quite large. From the front it looked like a small thatched hut, but behind it were several houses, which had been arranged so that the sick could be seen there.

The room that Wi Yeon-ho was currently occupying seemed to be one of those patient rooms.

Wi Yeon-ho lay down with a start.

“Oh, I don’t know. But it’s a matter of course. I guess it’s okay to stay here.”

Although the famous doctor I was introduced to had passed away, there were still doctors here and their children, so I thought there was something to learn.

dripping.

At that moment, there was a knock on the door.

"yes."

The door opened and Jin Ye-ran came in carrying a large table.

The table was filled with a large chicken and all sorts of sumptuous dishes.

“I thought you might be hungry, so I prepared a meal first. There’s nothing on the menu, but please eat plenty.”

You don't have anything prepared?

'I think I'll be able to eat for three days.'

Sweat formed on Wei Yanhu's forehead.

To be honest, when has Wi Yeon-ho ever received such extravagant treatment?

At home, everyone was anxious because they couldn't catch Wei Yanhu, and when they met the master, they had to do their best not to be beaten to death. In Gaebeong, they took advantage of the fool who tried to use him, but the fool didn't have any favors toward him.

At the last Hanlimdaejangwon where he stayed, he was treated well, but Moon Eun-ji was anxious because she couldn't bother him, and he also got involved in an unexpected incident.

Nowhere else has Wi Yeon-ho been treated with such utmost respect.

Moreover, Wei Yanhu was not a man without reason, and he knew very well that he was not a great man who deserved to be treated in this way.

“Excuse me, let’s eat together!”

Wi Yeon-ho desperately called out to Jin Ye-ran, who was about to open the door and leave. It was obvious that if he ate this alone, he would get a stomachache.

“I’ve already eaten, so don’t worry and eat.”

widely.

The door is closed.

Wi Yeon-ho looked at the feast before him, sweat dripping down his face.

'But it seems like it's not as poor as I thought?'

If I were poor, I wouldn't have been able to serve such a nice meal. I guess I can serve such a nice meal because I have enough to eat.

Wi Yeon-ho decided to think positively. In fact, there was no reason for him to be restless over the food he was given to eat.

Wi Yeon-ho tore off the leg of the chicken in front of him and put it in his mouth.

At that moment, a small conversation was heard outside the door.

“Sister, how about that food?”

“Be quiet. The guests are eating.”

“It’s this far away, how could you possibly hear it?”

Wi Yeon-ho's ears perked up.

Wi Yeon-ho had survived by avoiding Baek Mu-han's flying stone fists without making a sound. If he wanted to, he could hear the sound of leaves falling a hundred yards away.

“We’re out of rice, where did you get it?”

“It’s none of your business.”

“But I still need to know…….”

“A man doesn’t need to worry about housework. You should just focus on your medical practice.”

“Even though I try not to care… Sister, what happened to the necklace?”

“I put it away for a while.”

“You put away something that was your mother’s keepsake that you never took off. Did you sell it?”

“I just borrowed money to fight in the battlefield. Come back when things get better.”

“I’m about to give up my house, so how can my situation get any better? Even though I’m a guest, how can I treat you by selling my mother’s belongings?”

“What are you talking about? This is someone who came to see my father! Are you saying that we should treat someone like that carelessly?”

As Jin Ye-ran's voice grew angry, Jin So-ah's voice died down.

“That’s not it……”

“It is a relic, but it is nothing more than a jade ornament. If you abandon courtesy and morality because of such an object, your mother will be even more disappointed. Heed my words.”

"yes."

Wi Yeon-ho weakly put down the chicken leg in his mouth. The chewy chicken was so dry that it felt like he was chewing sand. Wi Yeon-ho forcefully swallowed the chicken that was struggling to swallow, holding onto his throat.

Wi Yeon-ho shuddered.

So, this feast was prepared with the money received after leaving his mother's remains in the battlefield.

“Mom, I can’t eat it.”

Even if Wei Yanhu was a person who was so indifferent and had the guts to rob beggars, he could not possibly eat this. This was food that no human could eat.

'Can I turn this food back into money right now?'

Just then, there was a knock on the door again.

“Yes, come in!”
