Chapter 189

Episode 189. Then , Nam Soo-kyung, who had been watching her

every day since today, asked Joo Hwa-young, who was standing next to her, a white sword.

“Is Confucius Ju Sojeo a Moorim?”

Joo Hwa-young glanced at Nam Soo-kyung at the unexpected question.

Judging from his long and worried expression, it seems that he really doesn’t know anything about Moorim.

Hagija does not use knives or tools, so it is easy to get confused in the eyes of the general public.

“yes.”

“Oh, I see. Is he stronger than Sambobang?”

Nam Soo-kyung seemed a bit uneasy because the other person was the firefighter of Sambobang.

“If it’s Gongja-nim’s inaction, he won’t be able to move even if ten waves like the three treasures come rushing in.”

“really?”

Nam Soo-kyung widened her eyes.

No matter how many times I looked at it, I couldn’t believe that the ordinary-looking Yeonjeokha was so good.

Just then, Yeon Jeok-ha called Nam Soo-gyeong.

“friend! Come and see.”

“why?”

As Nam Soo-kyung approached, Yeon Jeok-ha said.

“What should I do with this guy?”

“How?”

Nam Soo-kyung’s eyes widened at Yeon Jeok-ha’s words.

Because she had lived her life coping with violence passively, she could not readily answer.

“Revenge. You said you were bullied? I think I already got hit by one today. Have you ever thought about how you want to get revenge?”

“...”

Nam Soo-kyung hesitated.

I’ve been bullied by him for the past two years, but I never imagined something like today would happen. Of course, revenge was not even dreamed of.

“How did you want to give it back when this guy is harassing you?”

“I was scared and all I wanted to do was run away. I felt like I would live on the days I didn’t meet him, and it was hard enough that I wanted to die when I did meet him.”

“Tsk! Why die for something like that? You can hire a ronin to handle it.”

“But how is it?”

“friend. It is natural for a life born without knowing to struggle to survive. If someone bothers me enough to want to die, I have to kill them. What if I die because it hurts? Who wants me to die? is not it?”

“That’s true, but...”

A bitter smile appeared on Nam Soo-kyung’s face. How easy is that?

“People kill and eat cows, sheep, and ducks in order to survive. Just because I didn’t kill myself doesn’t mean I’m not responsible for the slaughter. But the reason I feel comfortable is because I ate to live. Once born, you have to do your best to survive. If I have to kill someone to live, it’s only natural to kill someone. It is an insult to life to say that it is hard enough to die and not do anything.”

Nam Soo-kyung was slightly conflicted at Yeon Jeok-ha’s passionate speech.

“If you don’t want to kill me, return at least a part of what you suffered.”

“how?”

Yeonjeokha took out a dagger from his chest and put it on the table.

“You can poke it with it or hit it with a chair until it loosens up.”

As Nam Soo-kyung pondered, Nok Dam-pyeong looked at the chair with sad eyes.

The chair seemed less dangerous than being stabbed.

Nam Soo-kyung’s eyes turned to Nokdam-pyeong.

The man who was so frightened is now rolling his eyes with nervous eyes.

Suddenly everything became boring.

When I found out that Nokdampyeong was not a big deal, I felt neither fear nor fear.

The core of the heart disappeared like melting snow.

Nam Soo-kyung, who was standing in a daze, walked in front of Nokdam-pyeong.

And hit him hard on the cheek.

slam!

Nokdampyeong’s face turned around at the strong shock.

Soon after, Nam Soo-kyung patted his hands and said to Yeon Jeok-ha.

“My insides are now full. I don’t know why I was so afraid of a man like this.”

“Is that really enough?”

“yes. Thanks to seniority, I realized that I was living like an idiot.”

“This rock is called the Suicide Rock. The bottom is deep and there is even a whirlpool, so if you fall into it, you will go to the goal. will you replace me? If you don’t like it, I’ll just cut the upper body and throw it down. If you use your legs well, you might come out alive.”

I don’t know the content, but in this case, it’s ‘unconditional’.

Nokdampyeong nodded several times, fearing that Yeonjeokha would not understand.

“You promised to stay here for three years instead of me?”

‘omg! Three years old?’

Are you talking about those three years of living in a hut next to your parents’ graves?

Yeonjeokha explained as if confirming it.

“I’m going to build a hut and stay here. If you touch a drunken woman for three years, I will kill you. Even if you get off the suicide rock, you die. Then today is the day.”

Nokdampyeong’s mouth fell open.

Spending three years mourning for someone else’s parents?

Where in the world is that kind of coercion!

But the opponent was too scared to say I couldn’t do it.

Yeonjeokha said while watching Nokdampyeong squatting with a bewildered face.

“In exchange, I won’t touch the three treasures either. I’m filial, you become a person, and you survive. This is what I call three birds with one stone. If you don’t want to do it, tell me now. I will throw you away and go to the opening right away to get rid of the three treasures.”

“...I’ll do it.”

Nokdampyeong, in desperation, replied, forgetting the warning that ‘If you speak, you will pull out your tongue’.

He nodded his head with a satisfied face.

It feels very rewarding to be able to do filial piety like others.

“I won’t be bored, though. I like this place, so I come every day.”

‘Do not come.’

“It will get chilly in a little while, so build a strong hut well. Say good-bye to Sambobang. Bring the food yourself or have it delivered to the inn.”

“yes.”

Nokdampyeong’s gloomy eyes turned to the Yellow River.

I wanted to jump into the muddy water and die, but I held it in.

at sunset.

Only then did Wan Ja-gyeong, the head of the foreign party, wake up and take care of his subordinates and return to the opening.

***

Unboxing.

Sambobang.

“what! Dampyeong is being held hostage in an inn?”

Jumping up from his seat, the death sword, Nokilchwi, glared at Wanjagyeong with burning eyes.

“Not a hostage... They said they decided to pay a three-year funeral instead.”

In an instant, Nokilchwi blew away like the wind and kicked the upper body of Wan Ja-kyung.

pug.

Coudantang.

In succession, Nokilchwi mercilessly trampled on Wanjagyeong, who had fallen behind.

“Ugh. Ugh.”

“You madman! Three years on behalf of someone else? What do you mean? Are you farting? Dampyeong is the one who drank so much that he became a rice cake even on the day his mother died! Dampyeong like that will pay for someone else’s 3-year mourning! Are you talking about it?”

“Ugh! Didn’t your subordinate tell you? A person called Senior Confucius made that happen.”

“Then we should gather our subordinates and ask for revenge! Where did you brazenly say that Dampyeong decided to stay for three years? In your eyes, did I look so petty!”

To the continued kicking of Nokilchwi, Wan Ja-gyeong replied with her body crouching down.

“Ugh! The opponent of the ark is a master of the void submerged. How are you going to defeat such a person?”

“Sounds like an empty space and fell asleep! Where did you get enchanted and come back and say you’re an empty water? Do you know that Heo Gong Sub Water is the name of someone’s dog? You said you’re a guy who hasn’t even had blood on his head yet? If such a guy uses Heo Gong Sub, I am the swordsman Lu Dongbin! You sick bastard! Where are you talking nonsense?”

Nokilchwi, who had been huffing up for a while, screamed out loud.

“Yak Dangju! Are you there!”

“yes! Ark.”

“Bring the best occultist in the opening right now!”

“All right!”

After hearing Naedang Dangju Yakdaemong’s answer, Nokilchwi returned to its place.

Wan Ja-gyeong, who was holding her head with both hands, lifted her face.

Seeing the ark looking for the occultist somehow shook my heart.

Come to think of it, the old man didn’t even use a sword or a sword.

‘shit. Have I really been enchanted?’
