Episode 109: The General is passing by (3)
“Off...”
It was crazy that my eyes were already turned over and only the whites were visible.
If the situation of the head of the family is like this, how can other people be so embarrassed?
It felt like everyone would die if things continued like this.
Yu Jin-san, who was glaring at them, seemed to have let go of his anger and gently patted his granddaughter’s back.
“Enough is enough. “There’s no need to get your hands dirty with these ugly guys.”
“I didn’t do anything.”
The rumor did nothing.
I just came here and shouted a few words in my voice.
It was truly a strange thing.
“Anyway, let’s go now. “It’s none of our business from here on out.”
Yu Jin-san held his granddaughter’s hand and walked straight out.
What happened behind the scenes was clear to my eyes even if I didn’t look at it.
The warriors guarding this place were wiped out, and the new disciples were also not normal.
In that case, a middle-aged man filled with resentment would not leave them alone.
I had absolutely no desire to stop him.
“Grandpa. But why were you so angry earlier? “It’s my first time seeing something like that.”
“Well, it was because something worth doing happened. “Then why did our Seol do that?”
“I... I got angry because my grandpa was angry.”
Jinsan Yu tilted his head.
I guessed that the reason the granddaughter was angry was because she saw the inside of the jar, but it seems she couldn’t see there because her vision was blocked.
“Then why were you yelling at them?”
“I was asking why you made my grandfather angry.”
Jinsan Yu had a blank expression for a moment, as if it was absurd.
Still, he couldn’t help but be amazed at his granddaughter’s thoughts about him.
“...what a guy.”
Joson was retrieving hidden luggage near the manor.
It was when Yu Jin-san was tying a bag and a spear to his granddaughter’s back.
“But grandpa.”
“why?”
“What was in that jar?”
“hmm. Don’t try to find out. “It’s better for you not to know.”
The more an adult hides something, the more curious he or she becomes about the child’s psychology.
“I’m curious, I’m curious! “Tell me quickly.”
There were a lot of rumors, but Yu Jin-san’s answer did not change.
“I’ll tell you when you’re a little older.”
“At some point, they said our story was all grown up. “If you don’t tell me, I won’t move a single step from here.”
After speaking, the granddaughter slowly lifted her chin. It may be that he is emphasizing that he is taller than his grandfather.
Yu Jin-san, who was looking at that scene, made an embarrassed expression. This is because the content was a bit cruel to tell to a child.
After thinking for a while, he made a decision after careful consideration.
‘Well, there might be something helpful. ‘Because it’s a world we can’t survive in if we don’t instill a strong mind.’
Instead, I compromised myself by purifying the content a bit and delivering it.
Eugene San said as he sat down in the shade under the tree.
“Okay, if you really want, I’ll let you know, so sit down for a moment.”
Yu Seol quickly sat down next to the grandfather and crossed his arms, fearing that he would change his mind.
“curious. “Tell me quickly~”
“There’s a story I heard from my uncle when my grandfather was just like you. So, he is your great-grandfather.”
“Grandfather’s uncle?”
“okay. Your father passed away before you were even born, but I heard later that he had some magical powers. “I really liked my grandfather.”
When I told her the story of her family, Yuseol’s dimples appeared and she growled.
“Hi-Hi. “I guess grandpa was cute.”
A faint smile appeared on Yu Jin-san’s face as he reminisced about the past, but then disappeared.
“If someone who serves a god like me fails to repay the favor, he will end up with karma. “Please, sir.”
I couldn’t bear to refuse after asking for it this much.
Besides, it’s not a very difficult request.
Yu Jin-san, who thought for a moment, also readily accepted his offer.

Man-ho’s house consists of a small shrine and a crumbling old main hall. And the kitchen was everything.
The reason his situation was not easy was because he sold all his possessions and poured them into learning martial arts.
After arriving here, Joson watched Manho celebrate Cheondojae with a pious heart.
I couldn’t help but find it strange to see someone muttering into the empty space.
He cried and laughed alone like a crazy person and only finished work after one hour.
Is it because I finally got rid of everything? There was a liveliness on his face that had never been seen before.
“There is nothing prepared, but please eat a lot.”
The three sat with their heads together at the simple table set up in the kitchen.
“I’ll eat it well~”
There wasn’t much side dish, but Yuseol seemed to like it and ate it very deliciously.
It was when Yu Jin-san, who was happily looking at the child, grabbed the chopsticks.
“Thank you, old man. “Thanks to you, I was able to send my child up to the sky.”
“Don’t worry. Anyway, I’m really sorry about what happened to you. Now let go of everything from the past. “Shouldn’t I work hard to live up to my son’s share?”
“For us shamans, death is not the end. “It is a process of reincarnation and I will meet my son again.”
“Cancer, that’s how it should be.”
At that time, Man-ho looked intently at Yu-jin-san and made a bitter expression.
“But you also went through something as unfortunate as me. “I think it’s not me who needs to be comforted.”
“...hmm. It’s really surprising that you noticed that. “Can you see a ghost or something behind me?”
Because my granddaughter was next to me, I couldn’t tell her the situation directly, but I asked her if her children, who had died in sorrow, were nearby.
“doesn’t exist. Normally, they would have become vengeful spirits and followed the elder, but the general behind the granddaughter brought them all to the capital.”
“I’m so glad... But I have one question for you.”
“Please speak, old man.”
Yu Jin-san asked, glancing at his granddaughter moving her chopsticks.
“They say General Guan Yu is behind us, so why is our Seol so weak? “I don’t think he’s getting it right.”
Manho nodded and answered with a serious expression.
“The general is not a person who looks after other people’s orders. Because he is a person of dignity and dignity, he will never enter a human body or give orders under any circumstances.”
“Then why are you following our granddaughter around?”
“He’s just protecting you. “If you go to the battlefield, the arrows will dodge you on their own.”
“I thought you were a clever fortune teller, but you seem to be playing with adults.”
“haha. If you don’t believe it, I have no way of explaining it to you. “Think as you please.”
It was the first time in ten years that a smile appeared on Manho’s face.
It seemed like he finally felt at ease after sending his son off.
His once life-filled face had already become a different person.
“Anyway, what does our granddaughter see? “I’m sure it will become big, but I’m just asking because I’m curious about what it will become when it grows up.”
“I can’t see anything. How dare someone like me tell fortunes when the general is standing there in silence? All I can guess is that I was born with some kind of great destiny.”
“Then what about me?”
Manho smiled faintly and took out a small lucky bag from his pocket.
“Still, you can see a little bit of the old man. I don’t know the details, but you will face some difficulties in the near future. “Please wait until then and open this bag.”
It was so light that I had no idea what it contained.
“What difficulties? “What on earth did you put in this?”
“I don’t know either. I just wrote down the fortune telling. Anyway, about that...”
Man-ho, who was about to answer something, suddenly clutched his chest as if he was choking.
“You look a little off somewhere.”
“Ugh... don’t worry about it. “It’s natural that there will be a conflict if you reveal the secrets of heaven.”
It seemed that the lucky bag contained information that should not be revealed.
I couldn’t help but feel grateful for his heart.
“Why are you trying to help us so much?”
“You and your granddaughter were the greatest relationship and benefactor in my life. This is also heaven’s will, so don’t worry about it.”
