Entomologist in Sichuan Tang Clan Chapter 322

322
– Tsk tsk.

-Beep

-Tsurut.

-Kukkuu!

A shadow rushes in as soon as Seol Nui finishes speaking.

I, who was sitting cross-legged, had no choice but to lie down like a grasshopper.

I could handle them one at a time, but when they rush in at the same time like this, the weight is so great that I can’t do anything about it.

Moreover, I was in a state of confusion for several days and when I came out, my body was stiff.

Since I can’t move my legs or arms fully yet, I had no choice but to allow the children to greet me in full.

“Oh, okay. Guys. Calm down.”

The children who rushed at me frighteningly began to lick me as if they were happy to see me.

Just like dogs welcoming their owners home after they leave.

The children’s faces, noses, necks, and eyes were all covered in spit.

-Kukugu. “Father, I was worried.”

-Kkuu. “That’s right, Father.”

-Byeok “Installment!”

The connection was good, and Seol, Bing, and Dong-i’s voices were touching. As expected, their faces looked older, and their speech was like that of adults.

It kind of feels like I have grown children?

‘Somehow I feel like I should call you father.’

-Tsk tsk. “That’s right! Why are you so late!”

-Tsurut. “I was worried! Dad!”

When I thought things would get better after some time, when I listened to the children’s stories, it seemed that as time went on, I was a bit anxious.

No, it seemed like he was really sleepy.

That’s understandable, since even Hwayang, who was only interested in food, was licking my cheek.

There, Hyang-i, Bin-i, Hong-dan-i, Seol, Bing, and Dong-i were all taking up a part of my body.

“Yeah. Yeah, Dad’s a little late. Sorry, sorry. Let’s step back for a moment, Dad’s still not feeling well.”

“Okay, Auntie, I’ll massage Dad’s body a bit. Let’s step back.”

-Tsrrrr.

-Beep!

As usual, I told the kids to step back so that my sister could massage my body, but the kids shook their heads and started pressing the body they had taken over.

‘Gyaaaak!?’

I’ve heard of cat squeaks before, but poison squeaks?

Bin-i’s legs slapped my body like waves, and Seol, Bing, and Dong-i slapped my body with their tails.

Hwayang was pressing her face as if she was applying a face pack, and Hyang was tightening and releasing her arms and legs.

‘But why is Hwayang blocking his father’s nose with his front paw…’

It was amazing, but I still felt like I needed to quickly loosen up my stiff muscles in order to survive.

As I slowly began to infuse my body with internal energy, my muscles and joints began to loosen up more quickly than before.

As the energy that started in my danjeon began to spread throughout my body, my whole body quickly woke up, just like a dry tree absorbing water through its roots and gaining life.

The tips of my fingers and toes began to move, and soon the joints of my limbs began to move.

“Are you okay, Soryong? If you move too fast, your muscles will hurt.”

When my body seemed to be loosening up faster than expected, my sister Seol asked with a slightly worried expression, but my body was lighter than she thought.

“No. I think it’s okay. Strangely, when I turn my energy, I move quickly.”

“Really? Is it because your level has improved?”

I decided to move my arms and legs and whisper to the children who weren’t there.

I wanted to tell you the news because you must have been worried.

‘Hey, dad, you’ve come to your senses.’

‘-Tsuru! ‘Dad! The first day will be here soon.’

The first thing I hear when I whisper to my eldest daughter is her delighted voice.

It seemed as if the sky was watching me closely as before I entered the trance, but as soon as it heard my voice, it replied that it would run this way.

And the next one to whisper is Cheongwol.

I sent a whisper to express my apologies, saying that you must have been bored being on the boat with only Yeolbi and Geumdo.

‘Cheongwol, I finished my training and came back.’

‘-Kreung? ‘Is that so? Are you feeling okay?’

‘Yeah, I’m sorry for leaving you alone.’

‘-Kreurung. ‘Ah, no. There was a lot to see in the flowing river and there was Geumdo Island next to it, so I wasn’t bored.”

‘Thank you for saying so.’

‘-Kru. Go, thank you.’

Cheongwol is quite embarrassed by what I say.

‘It seems like Cheongwol has been appeased enough, so what’s next for Cheongyu?’

My body relaxed, I sat up and was about to whisper to Cheong-yu.

Suddenly arms and legs wrapped around me from behind.

Flesh-colored arms and legs, not those of children’s insects or poisonous bodies, wrapped around me.

“Hwa, Hwa-eun?”

-Chiring.

For a moment I thought it was a flower, but there was a bead and a red string wrapped around her leg.

It was a fairy tale.

“Ah, it was a fairy. Thank you for protecting me until now.”

-Kissit.

Judging by the strings hanging from the ceiling, it seems like it has been there all along.

The demon who had been hugging me from behind said, pointing to his face.

-Kishishi.

“Huh? Ah! Huh, Huh-eun?”

I had a feeling that he was asking if I had contacted Hwa-eun, but I was so happy to be welcomed by the kids that I didn’t think about it for a moment.

I felt grateful to the fairy.

It was something that could have caused a few days of anger, but it could probably be prevented at this stage.

He asked his sister Seol.

“Sister Seol, what about Hwa-eun?”

But when I asked and thought about it, it seemed a little strange.

Even if I didn’t contact her separately, Hwa-eun should have been by my side, so it was strange that she wasn’t there.

Clearly, until now, whenever I went into a state of reverie and opened my eyes, you were always the one who greeted me before anyone else.

“Oh, I went to see the author.”

“When it’s this dark?”

It was already dark outside and the sun seemed to have set.

It was incomprehensible that he would go shopping at such a late hour.

“We suddenly ran out of ingredients, so I ran out before they ran out.”

“ah···.”

-Rumble.

Just then the door opens and the cinnamon and cloves fly in.

-Char.

-Tsrrrr.

As I spread my arms, the two of them fell into my arms.

“Everyone was worried, but now that everything has turned out well, you don’t have to worry anymore.”

As I was feeling the intense welcome that made me feel the sting once again, I heard Sister Seol talking to Yohwa.

“Hey, little dragon has woken up and it’s time for Hwa-eun to come back. Could you please go pick her up? You could help her with her luggage.”

-Kissit.

At Seol’s words, Yohwa quickly flew through the open door as Cho and Yeondu entered the room.

And then the urgent voice of Cheongyu is heard.

-Sia!

Cheong-yu, who had come urgently through the open door, glared at me and shouted.

-Siaa 『Little Dragon! You’re awake! This is a big problem!』

‘Miss Cheongyu?’

Judging from the voice I’m hearing, it feels like it’s Lady Cheongyu.

As I was thinking that it had already been two weeks, I heard Lady Cheongyu speak quickly.

-Shiie. Sia. “We have to go down the mountain quickly now! No, contact Hwaeun! No. Since Soryong is awake, I can contact him. “

‘Young Lady Cheongyu, please calm down for a moment…’

As the conversation continued without pause, Cheong-yu tried to calm So-jo down and listen to her story, but unbelievable words continued through the group chat.

『-Sia! (Hwaeun!)

‘Huh? The little dragon is awake? If the group chat room is open, does that mean the little dragon is awake?’

-Shiiiii! The little dragon is awake!

‘Little dragon!?’

‘fury···.'”

I tried to answer Hwa-eun’s call, but Cheong-yu’s scream followed.

『-Shiiia. Shii. That’s not important right now! Listen carefully. Earlier, when Hwaeun was leaving, you said that the snakes scattered by the Golden Crown King found people around them, right?

‘Yes, definitely the villagers when I set out···.’

-Shiiiii. No. If I remember correctly, they are the warriors of the Blood Cult. Be careful!

‘Blood sect!? Huh···.’

‘Hwaeun!?’

‘Hwaeun!?’

It was surprising that the blood sect was discovered, but Hwa-eun’s voice suddenly cut off.

Cheongyu and I shouted urgently, but Hwaeun’s groan and a single word were left in the group chat.

“‘Huh. It’s an attack!'”

***

Hwa-eun was carrying a bamboo sack on her back and a basket in one hand.

I had a lot of luggage because I had to buy things like meat, flour, rice, vegetables, and oil.

So, even though I bought a bamboo basket and put most of my stuff in it, I still had to carry another basket in my hand.

“Is it delicious?”

-Peepee.

Sandan looks very happy when I hand him a piece of cut chicken from the basket I’m holding.

The chicken quickly disappeared into Sandan’s mouth, leaving only the bones behind.

Hwa-eun thought she did a good job as she reached into the basket again, took out a piece, and handed it over.

Sandan must have been hungry, so he asked the meat cleaver to cut up the chicken into small pieces.

That was when I left the author’s office and arrived at the beginning of the mountain path.

Looking up at the mountain, the sun had already set, but a bright full moon was still rising.

“Ah, Lady Cheongyu must have woken up. We have to hurry.”

The full moon rising means that Lady Cheongyu has woken up.

Hwa-eun decided to hurry up.

If Lady Cheongyu wakes up, she will tell you about Little Dragon’s condition.

Since there is no dragon, we won’t be able to communicate verbally, but we will be able to communicate sufficiently through writing.

It was when Hwa-eun started walking quickly.

Suddenly, from a place where it shouldn’t be heard, the voice of the young lady I had been thinking about was heard.

『-Sia! (Hwaeun!)』

Although the voice was a little urgent, the fact that Young Lady Cheongyu’s voice could be heard in the group chat room was proof that Soryong had woken up.

Hwa-eun asked happily.

『’Huh? The little dragon? If the group chat room is open, does that mean the little dragon has woken up?’

-Shiiiii! The little dragon is awake!

‘Little Dragon!?’

As Hwa-eun called out to So-ryong in her heart, she heard his voice, which she had been anxiously missing.

“‘fury···.'”

That moment when your heart races at the first sound of your own name.

The shout of Young Lady Cheongyu, which resonated through the group chat room, cut off Soryong’s words.

『-Shiiia. Shii. That’s not important right now! Listen carefully. Earlier, when Hwaeun left, you said that the snakes scattered by the Golden Crown King found people around them, right?』

What could be more urgent than a little dragon?

Anyway, Hwa-eun, pressured by Lady Cheong-yu’s momentum, carefully recalled what had happened earlier and answered.

“Yes, definitely when I set out, the villagers···.”

Clearly, the Golden Crowned King had drawn a person on a leaf and shown it to her, and Hwa-eun, who saw it, thought that several villagers had passed by.

But Hwa-eun’s hair stood on end at the shouts of the young lady who followed.

『-Shiiiiiia. No. If I remember correctly, they are the warriors of the Blood Cult. Be careful!

‘Blood sect!? Huh···.’

And at that moment, a sharp sound was heard in the darkness.

-Seeing. Seeing. Seeing.

Hwa-eun threw the basket and flew, but one of the arrows went right through the hem of her skirt.

“‘Hwaeun!?’

‘Hwaeun!?’

The shouts of Cheongyu Sojo and Soryong continued, and the dark dragons began to fly towards Hwaeun.

-Seeing! Thud.

“‘Huh. It’s an attack!'”

***

He threw the bamboo basket and quickly flew towards the house.

There were too many dark secrets pointing towards Hwa-eun in the darkness.

-Thud.

I twisted my body several times to avoid the flying arrows and dark weapons, but my body wasn’t fully acclimated to the Samhwachwijeong yet, so my reactions were slow.

Although I went through the process of accepting my past, it took quite some time for my body to become completely accustomed to the new past.

Eventually, in the darkness, Hwa-eun’s foot got caught on a tree root and her body slid across the grass.

-Whoa.

A series of flying needles in a disheveled posture.

I rolled over to avoid it, but soon I felt a rock on my side.

When I turned my head, I saw a body that had been rolling on the grass hanging on a rock.

“this···.”

It was too late to dodge, and the wave of piercing water was closing the distance.

Hwa-eun shouted at Sandan-i while raising her poison ball to counter the poison, saying that she would get hit a few times.

“Sandan, get behind mom!”

-Phew!

But at Hwa-eun’s shout, Sandan stepped forward in front of Hwa-eun instead of running away.

The sandal that moved quickly above her head settled in the center of Hwa-eun’s body.

“Sandan-ah!”

Tears welled up in Hwa-eun’s eyes at the sight of the boy blocking his mother with his small body.

Maybe children are so loving and loyal. So-ryong also thought that he would fall in love with them.

The moment when Hwa-eun tries to hug and cover Sandan.

Sandan spread his front legs and wings wide and quickly moved his body towards the dark dragon flying towards Hwaeun.

-Padadadadak.

Clearly, the body was attached to Hwa-eun’s stomach, but Sandan’s afterimage covered Hwa-eun’s body.

It looked like a flower field covered with lilies.

Then, needles flew in, but none of them penetrated Hwa-eun’s body.

All the needles were caught in Sandan’s front paws.

-Seeing. Seeing.

The arrows that followed also never made it past Sandan.

No matter where or from what direction the needles flew, they were unable to penetrate Hwa-eun’s body due to Sandan’s strange speed and lack of vision.

-Phew!

As Sandani’s cries spread across the night sky, the image of Sandani continuing like an afterimage felt like martial arts to Hwaeun.

The sight of the upper body and forelegs moving strangely to catch the needles and the legs shooting out explosively.

Instantaneous magic and agile fists.

If we were to name it, it would be the Tanglang Volume.

It was a scorpion fist.
