Chapter 164

Episode 164 Once you enter that path.

That night, an unexpected person visited Jin Ha-ryeong’s sleepless home. It was my grandfather, Jin Feicheon.

“Have you slept yet?”

“yes.”

“Would you like to go for a walk with Grandpa after a long time?”

“great.”

She walked through the inner garden with Jin Feicheon. The military personnel who were guarding various places moved out of the way and disappeared.

“You’ve been heartbroken because of me lately, right? “I’m sorry, Grandpa.”

Jin Feicheon didn’t mention it, but he didn’t look angry.

“You attended the banquet today?”

“yes. “It was a banquet held by Jinryongjang Jo Confucius.”

“How was it?”

It was a grandfather who had never asked questions like this before. If he knew he was attending, he would also know that Geomyeon was there.

“grandfather. Have you ever had a mental image come to mind when looking at someone? “An animal or something else.”

“Yes. “It happened recently too.”

The person Jin Pae-cheon thought of was Geommugeuk. I still can’t forget the image that came to me from the surprise and shock when I blocked my own momentum.

“I experienced this for the first time. “When I saw someone, a snake came to mind.”

Even if you don’t say courtier, your grandfather will know who you are talking about.

Indeed, Jin Peicheon did not ask who it was.

I thought he was going to defend Jo Shin, but my grandfather didn’t show much of a reaction.

Once the two of them had a private meeting, she honestly revealed her feelings about Jo Shin.

“Even if I get into an arranged marriage, I am not a tribute.”

Then Jin Feicheon said something unexpected.

“I have no intention of marrying you to Prince Jo.”

“really?”

“I am a person who already has everything. “Why would you regret it?”

Jin Ha-ryeong smiled brightly at Jin Pae-cheon’s firm words. He really looked like a very cool grandfather.

“I knew so.”

Jin Ha-ryeong crossed his grandfather’s arms.

“What is a grown man doing?”

“Walk like this just a little bit.”

Jin Peicheon looked at his granddaughter with a benevolent smile. This is the child who brought the only joy to the arduous life of the leader. It seems like only yesterday when I was toddling around, but I can’t believe I’ve already grown this much.

“Are you upset with this old man?”

“no. I understand, Grandpa. “What kind of grandfather would like his granddaughter hanging out with a servant?”

“It’s not because the child is a servant.”

“sure?”

Jin Feicheon did not explain the reason. I didn’t think there was any need to talk about Geommugeuk’s true identity.

Jin Feicheon changed the topic.

“How about Soryongjeon?”

“I’m doing my best.”

“Are you confident you will win?”

“As you know, I worked really hard for this competition. “I will definitely win!”

Knowing this well, Jin Peicheon hesitated. Honestly, I wanted to recommend abstaining. Even if he knew that Cheon Myeong-hoe was involved, he did not want Jin Ha-ryeong to be involved in the first place.

However, because I knew the hard work she had put in for this competition, I could not tell my granddaughter to give up.

“Do your best.”

“Your grandfather.”

So the two walked for a while under the moonlight. Jin Feicheon noticed that his granddaughter reminded him of someone every moment she went for a walk.

Since I had an idea of who it was... I just hoped it was just a passing fever from my youth.

* * *

Seo Dae-ryong, who returned from training, was refreshed to the fullest.

“Do you know how many people recognized me on the way back?”

“Exactly, how many women pretended to know each other?”

“You are so perceptive. “How many people?”

“It depends on how slow you walk.”

On a crowded street, especially when there were a lot of women, Seo Dae-ryong showed off his turtle skills. Then, whenever someone recognized him, he ran like an excited rabbit.

“Five people?”

For a moment, Seo Dae-ryong flinched.

“How did you know?”

“It was analyzed based on the current state of excitement.”

“Is that possible? Were you protecting me by any chance? “Are you afraid I’ll be in danger?”

“ah! Now that I think about it, it might be possible. “I never once thought about the possibility of our master being in danger.”

“...I guess it’s because I’m trustworthy, right?”

“...of course.”

“No! You forgot, right? “Why do you leave me alone if I’m in danger?”

“Well, you end up in danger, you become a hostage, you get hurt, and you become a real unmanned person. Come on? “I know it well.”

“I decline! I will live quietly as an investigator at Hwangcheon Pavilion who does not get hurt, does not get caught up in conspiracies, and just diligently trains in martial arts. “I do martial arts training for my health!”

“Are you upset? “Because you don’t care?”

Fortunately, there was no life-threatening injury, but the wound was quite deep.

Representative Murim Maeng applied Geumchang medicine, prescribed medication, and recommended that he rest for a while.

He returned to the guesthouse and made Seo Dae-ryong sit down.

“Sit down.”

“yes.”

A ray of internal power was injected into Seo Dae-ryong’s back. My true energy slowly circulated through his veins and comforted the injured area. Depending on whether this process was performed or not, the speed of recovery from the injury varied greatly.

“Thank you, I feel much better.”

“do not worry. “When I looked into it, fortunately, it avoided major blood vessels and no bones were damaged.”

Originally, Seo Dae-ryong’s ability was limited to eight rivers. But barely winning this time was the result of all of our luck, talent, and effort.

But Seo Dae-ryong seems to want to go to the end.

“Can I go to Sagang Bimu with this body?”

I knew very well that he wanted to leave, so I deliberately did not stop him.

“I have to go out. I have to tie myself up tightly and go out and win. Even if I lose the use of an arm, I have to go out. “How important is this?”

Then Seo Dae-ryong’s reaction was unexpected.

“yes.”

I actually jumped at his obedient answer.

“You? I have to say I can’t go out. What is this Bimu going to sell? “We have to argue!”

“There’s something too important at stake for that, right?”

“What happened? “Why is the Murim League martial arts competition so important?”

“It’s not that, Mr. Lord, it’s the successor exam. “I have to win so I can chase them down.”

I quietly stared at Seo Dae-ryong’s face. Seo Dae-ryong’s eyes, which were full of loyalty and passion, eventually avoided mine. Arrest is complete.

“You’re going to leave the station by impressing me like this?”

“Did you get a ticket?”

“of course. It was a passion that was so uncharacteristic of you. Even if the sky falls, you will not give up your arms.”

“sure. Even if Wulin is destroyed, I can’t give up my arms. Well done Seo Dae-ryong! That’s cool, Seo Dae-ryong! Just advancing to the finals is enough! “Praise!”

I laughed at his joke, and Seo Dae-ryong laughed along and screamed in pain.

“iced coffee! sick. “Don’t be funny.”

“You make everyone laugh. rest.”

As I was leaving the room, Seo Dae-ryong asked me from behind.

“Are you sure you can’t?”

Unlike before, his tone was serious. I could feel his desire to continue competing.

“no.”

“Mr. Lord, the succession test is also a test, but it is also because of me. I felt a lot during this non-marriage competition. “I also want to try until the end.”

There was silence for a moment.

“Inspector Seo: Once you enter that path, it is difficult to escape.”

“What kind of road is that?”

“I’m on my way to the off-stage with my injured arm tied up. “It’s a path that you walk on even though you’re limping and can’t see in one eye, with blood flowing from your whole body.”

It was me looking for the last Dafa materials.

I wanted to stop him because I lived that kind of life, and I couldn’t stop him because I knew better than anyone else how much that life helps a person grow.

However, once you cross the line and taste that world, you will not be able to live as an inspector at Hwangcheongak who trains martial arts for health.

“I want to go at least this time.”

“The next opponent will be difficult to beat even if he is not injured.”

“Please tell me the way.”

“If you overdo it, you may not be able to use your injured arm forever.”

“Then I’ll also find my right arm. “Oh, I guess I’m left-armed.”

“You could get more serious injuries.”

“Let’s get some rest while we’re at it.”

The will in Seo Dae-ryong’s eyes was no different from my will in the past.

“Then you shouldn’t be sitting there like that.”

Seo Dae-ryong suddenly stood up.

“Your fate always changes in your room.”

“Mr. Gakju is always there.”

How could it be because of me or the place? It must be because of that small, stubborn man’s decision not to give up.

I took him out of the guesthouse.

Seo Dae-ryong shouted, burning with heat.

“Now, it’s hell training!”

I said to Seo Dae-ryong, who was walking towards the mountain where we were training.

“It’s not there, it’s this way.”

I walked in the opposite direction.

“There’s a place we need to stop by first.”

The place we stopped by with him was Jungwon Battlefield. I found 500,000 nyang of money there.

“Why are you looking for so much money?”

“We’re not going to hell. “If you train through hell with an injured body, your body will only become more damaged.”

“Then where are we going?”

“Paradise.”

I smiled meaningfully at Seo Dae-ryong, who was surprised.

“We are going to paradise. A paradise where the entrance fee is very expensive.”
