Episode 67. sniffers (2)
“Damn it! The more I think about it, the more I get angry. I don’t know why I have to come all the way here and hang out with all those smelly things.”
“Sweet Lord.”
“why.”
“Still, it’s an organization that has been trained, so it’s nice to pay attention to your words… … .”
“what?”
“I’m sorry.”
“A guy who doesn’t even know the subject! Do you want to live in that shit-smelling pit again, chewing rat meat? Where do you dare to pay attention to your words? You are talking nonsense.”
“… … .”
“Remember why I brought you, who is not good at cutting, to Budanju. Do you understand?”
“yes.”
“Okay, bring me a drink.”
“… … .”
“why? You want to talk about the rule that you can’t drink alcohol while waiting for a mission? How did a guy who obeys rules so well have the courage to even plot a rebellion?”
“that… … .”
“Shut up and bring me a drink!”
The middle-aged man bowed his head and backed away.
The elderly man, who was sitting with his back on a rock, looked at the man’s back with annoyed eyes.
“병신 같은 새끼. They run rampant without knowing who the owner is, so they end up being arrested for plotting a rebellion.”
After grumbling for a while, he glanced to the side.
I could smell the strong smell of blood in the dark forest far away. The sound of eating something hastily came out very eerie.
A look of disgust appeared on the elderly man’s face.
“I’m afraid that someone might not be a beast, so even coming all the way here is a piece of shit. Neither this guy nor that guy can give out my manners to others.”
I’m really fed up with it. It was this guy and that guy and all the things I didn’t like.
And the head of the city, who sent them directly to this task, did not like it either.
‘Seize? That’s funny. Words are no different from stealing and robbery.’
It’s hard to believe that I’ve been assigned to a mission like this that’s not hot enough, and it’s pathetic.
In my mind, I wanted to cut off the heads of the leaders who had issued this order and hang them at the gate until they rotted away.
‘hmm.’
It was fortunate that the people who were going to be robbed at the hands of them were not babbling. If they were insignificant, they would not have come forward even if a knife fell on their neck.
‘Is it the first time in about ten years since I’ve met the guys from that neighborhood?’
His eyes drew a small crescent moon.
“I hope it will be a pretty good entertainment.”

The coin opened its eyes.
Seo Liang asked bluntly.
“Did you sleep well?”
Crunchy!
Her upper body stood up like lightning. She moved so fast that a bloody sound rang from her waist.
Xie Liang’s face immediately turned into a frown.
“Then, when I get out of the way, I get beaten up by So Won-ju.”
“Go, Gongja-nim?”
“Why?”
Joo-hwa looked at the window in confusion. The sky at sunset was dyed red.
“I must have been down for half a day.”
“One more day.”
“… … yes?”
“It was a day and a half.”
The coin was startled.
“So… … .”
“It was fortunate that I was forced to sleep. As soon as I got out of the mouth, I moved forcibly, so my body was so tired.
Even if you have a high level of simbeop and good breakfast, your body is your body. Unless you’re a master of the highest level, you have to rest when you’re resting.”
“… … .”
“Well, as a result, I rested well, so it worked.”
Joohwa lowered her head.
I never thought that my body would be so weak.
Come to think of it, I was only taking care of my body with the Ungongjosik, but I had never looked into the smallest details.
‘It’s a disqualification.’
Was it because of the joy of being revived, or was it because of excessive responsibility? Or was it just plain arrogance?
I thought that now that I was out of the mouth, the only thing left to do was to move forward.
I knew that restoring my body was the priority, but I only thought about the past that had suffered damage because of me.
‘Who is who on the subject that I couldn’t even pick up on myself… … .’
Seeing a hint of self-reproach on Ju-hwa’s face, Xu Liang, who had been looking at her blankly, shrugged.
“Aren’t you hungry?”
“yes?”
“Are you not hungry? He must be hungry after being bedridden for two days.”
When I heard that, I was hungry. It was then that her lips felt dry.
Xiliang took out a bundle from under the carriage seat and lifted it.

“The rice balls and beef jerky made by the convoy masters. Eat as much as you can, but don’t get too drunk.”
“Confucius… … ?”
“You just ate. I am not particularly hungry.”
“… … thank you.”
“What is gratitude? It is because of you that I am here.”
The coin flinched.
Come to think of it, I didn’t know why Confucius wanted to excommunicate secretly.
In most cases, candidates for succession would not be expelled from the school, but there is no need to overdo it.
The thought was fleeting. She decided not to even bother wondering about it. At least for now.
“Then excuse me.”
“Yeah, enjoy your meal.”
Joo Hwa chewed on a rice ball.
It was a rice ball made with finely chopped vegetables for the patient to eat. It seems that Wonju-nim gave a separate order to the convoy demons.
Seeing this made me feel like I was still lacking. She would have been worried if she were herself, but she wouldn’t have been able to take care of such a small part.
I am grateful for the grace and do not know what to do with affection. As soon as she woke up from her sleep, she felt that she was lacking in many ways.
“Have you eaten?”
“yes.”
“The quantity is smaller than expected. If you leave food, you will be punished.”
“Ah, then I left this… … .”
“They say there is plenty of food.”
“… … I will eat them all.”
“Are you full?”
“yes? ah… … yes.”
“Then give it to me.”
Ju-hwa handed the leftover rice to Xu Liang with a puzzled face. Are you forcing yourself to eat even though you’re not particularly hungry?
Seo Liang opened his mouth.
“Kumho. Come out.”
slip.
The coin flinched. A little fox with golden fur appeared from under her chair before she knew it.
Although it was a baby fox, its legs were quite long. Its tail was almost as large as its body, and it looked very fuzzy.
Kumho, who had quickly climbed onto Xu Liang’s lap, raised his head while lying on his stomach.
Xiliang handed the beef jerky to Kumho.
“If my teeth were chewing on my fingers, I could crush it like beef jerky, right?”
Let’s go!
Kumho eagerly chewed the beef jerky. As Xu Liang guessed, he chewed up the jerky in an instant and swallowed it.
The coin opened its mouth wide.
“Go, Gongja-nim, that fox… … ?”
“hmm? Ah, this friend is called Kumho.”
gold hora
It was named intuitively once. Kumho because it’s a fox with golden fur. I don’t know who made it, but I thought the naming sense was monstrous.
After Kumho finished the two chunks of beef jerky in an instant, Seo Liang brought a rice ball to his mouth.
‘oh.’
Can I give the fox rice balls? Did you hear vegetables in it?
Worries were in vain.
Yum Yum!
One bite, one bite, it tastes so good.
Wild beasts also graze once in a while. They usually had a bloated stomach, and when they tried to vomit, they often chewed.
But it wasn’t gold. Just eat rice and vegetables as if you were eating a delicious dish.
Looking at it, I thought that the creature could chew and swallow everything it could eat.
Knock.
Keum-ho burped proudly and then lay down next to Seo-ryang. I wanted to struggle, wiping my mouth with his tongue, and soon fell asleep.
Seo Liang smiled.
“Eat and sleep, sleep and eat. No one notices, and if you want to play, play. Your arms are very good.”
“Confucius.”
“hmm?”
“This fox… … Are you raised by Confucius?”
“Well, rather than raising them, they take care of themselves. After feeding them a few times, I’ve become attached to them too.”
“Yeah, that’s right.”
Not a dog, not even a cat. It was the first time I had ever seen a person raising a fox.
Seo Liang, who looked down at Geumho with a happy face and was organizing his bundle, suddenly frowned.
‘Damn it.’
It’s the second day since I left Shinkyo.
It takes about 10 days by carriage to reach the neighboring area of Gangseo. Two of them have passed, so now there are about eight days left.
‘It’s cramped. Shall I just stick out like this?’
back.
Veins swelled in the hand holding the bundle.
be patient, be patient This is still Guangdong Province, and the influence of the Heavenly Demon Church is very strong.
And that’s not all. The influence of Protestantism was strong not only in Guangxi, but also in Fujian, Jiangsu, Honam, Guizhou, and Yunnan areas.
I don’t know if I regained my past skills, but with my current skills, I will be caught unconditionally.
No, even if he had found his past skills, it would have been dangerous. My past self was the King of Killing, but now I am a demon.
It is impossible to escape unless I deceive myself by equipping myself with absolute martial arts that overwhelms everyone, or creating a situation so stupendous that everyone is fooled.
‘Let’s keep an eye on the situation. You didn’t intend to be free this time anyway, did you? You shouldn’t be in a hurry, you bastard.’
The convoy does not go all at once to the Gangseo area. I stop by two of the branches set up in Guangdong.
You should take a sneak peek at the branch office as well.
How strong is the branch’s strength, how systematic is their network of contacts, how quickly they can control the area if they decide and move, and so on.
It’s not normal, if you want to give up, it’s worth a try, right? If you think… … .
“Confucius.”
“huh? Oh, did you call me?”
“… … .”
“why? If you call, speak.”
The coin hesitated for a moment. But she mustered up her courage because it was something she had to check.
“Okay, where do you sleep… … .”
“I’ll take it here, where will I get it?”
“… … .”
“Oh, can that be a little uncomfortable?”
“Oh no!”
The coin was greatly perplexed.
Of course it’s bound to be uncomfortable. Because he is of the opposite s*x and even has a high status. He is himself, but evil rumors may arise that do not have anything particularly good for Sam Gongja.
But how can you say that you are uncomfortable with your face? Besides, if you were a disciple who was ordained by God, you should feel the burden, but you should be overcome with joy.
“I’m sorry, but please bear with me even if it’s uncomfortable. I have to keep an eye on your body anyway.”
“I am… … it’s okay.”
“Okay, let’s see soon. It must be a wheel that started rolling in about five days. After that, I’ll sleep somewhere else.”
“It’s okay, Gongja-nim! If Confucius is uncomfortable, if I sleep somewhere else… … .”
“So, you don’t have to ask if you’re okay, thank you, or anything like that. I’m such an indifferent person that I don’t even care. Got it?”
“… … I understand, Gongja-nim.”
“That’s all right.”
At that moment, Xi Liang’s ears perked up.
“I’ll come back after getting some fresh air, so take a break.”
“Please be careful.”
rattle.
After Seo Liang left, Ju Hwa closed the carriage door and sighed lightly. Suddenly, she saw Geum Ho lying on a soft chair across from her.
“… … You look really comfortable.”
Kumho pricked his ears and licked his lips softly. There was no change in the lying posture.
Coinage closed her eyes and leaned back in her chair.
I was strangely tired.
* * *
“Are you here, Gongja-nim?”
“Did you call?”
Ma Dong-pil scratched his head awkwardly.
“sorry. I shouldn’t have dared to do this, but I called Confucius to the forest in a frivolous way… … .”
“please.”
“yes?”
“Please don’t even say that. I’m going to die of confusion.”
“… … ?”
“Okay, so what happened?”
This is Confucius, who never came out of the carriage while traveling. In other words, it was the first time we met after the Hong Wi-moon scandal, and there was no awkwardness at all.
I tried to laugh at the thought of being like a Confucius, but Ma Dong-pil immediately hardened his expression.
“I was forced to come here because I thought you should know in advance.”
“So what?”
Ma Dong-pil took out a carefully folded letter from his bosom and handed it to him.
“Why are you hiding it so tightly… … huh?”
“… … .”
“You, is this true?”
“That’s right. Perhaps it is for this reason that the higher court sent the Ho court along with it… … Go, Gongja?”
saaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa
An eerie glow emanated from Xu Liang’s eyes as he stared at the letter.
“The Uicheon Meng’s great leader is in the southern part of Gangseo.”
