Chapter 179
It’s real fabric.
It was only two days ago that I had heard from Wi Peng before leaving Jinga in Taiwon, but I completely forgot about it.
Hyuk Moo-jin swallowed his breath and said.
“Uh, what should I do?”
“What should I do? If I had known anyway, I would not have made it in time.”
He is no other person, he is the King of Fire. Considering yesterday’s atmosphere, if I had said that I would go away because I had some housework, I would have sent it cheerfully.
Of course, not to the house, but to the nether road.
“The Great Threat will kill me.”
I patted Hyuk Mu-jin’s dark-skinned shoulder.
“are you okay. I can’t kill you.”
“Oh, me too!”
This is the sorrow of those who have no backing.
But I have no intention of procrastinating.
It is the day when Taewon Jinga stands tall as the ruler of Shanseo Province, and the youngest member of the family is late.
“Take your luggage. We start right away.”
Even if you say luggage, it’s only one suitcase.
We finished our preparations in an instant and went down to the first floor. The inside of the inn, which was decorated all red with the fabric, was crowded with people even though it was early in the morning.
And among them, there were two that stood out in particular.
“Oh, are you awake now?”
“It’s because young people sleep so much.”
“That’s right. When I was young, there were many days when I couldn’t sleep at all.”
“Have you seen it? Look, what about me???… The two old men, who raised their hands and pretended to know each other, then exchanged a drink among themselves. The red-hot faces and the drinking bowl next to them are evidence that they have been drinking since daytime.
Hyuk Moo-jin, who came down behind him, whispered in a low voice.
“What combination is that?”
“I don’t know either.”
One is a gigantic old man, taller than a decent man, and the other is a dwarf physique that looks like it will fly away if you blow on it.
Even though he is the king of fire.
‘Jang Tae-bo, when did that nobleman come?’
Did you come because of a request?
In any case, the two old men who had formed a family in their respective fields seemed to have become quite close at some point.
“The atmosphere is chaotic, can’t we just sneak out?”
“Sounds like a sneak peek. Don’t you remember that you passed out after being beaten with a duck bone yesterday?”
“Was that a duck bone? Damn, somehow the goal rang.”
“If you go out pretending not to know, your goal will be split.”
“That’s a bit.”
“How about you, do you want to run away?”
Hyukmujin let out a sigh with a gloomy face.
“Whoa, you’ve been lucky since the first day of the new year.”
I agree a hundred times. No one wants to meet Jeokcheongang, the King of Hwa, from the morning of the first day of the New Year.
“Grandpas, don’t you have dumplings?”
“There is also a lot of meat. Eat.”
“Wow!”
… … Except for that guy.
Hyuk Moo-jin and I moved on with heavy hearts like a cow being led to a slaughterhouse.
Cheongpung, who was stuffing food at the speed of light, held out the plates with a bright smile.
“Oooh! Meyer! ? 人 Buseu!”
“… … Eat a lot.”
“Z Mugsneud!”
This guy is the ultimate master. I can’t help but lament this unfair reality.
Jang Tae-bo spoke to me as I was worried about Moorim’s future.
“So, what are you guys going to do now?”
“First of all, I plan to return to my hometown.
I have some work.”
“Ah, that’s right. Did you say there is a meeting at Jinga in Taiwon?”
Currently, in Shanxi Province, every move related to Taiyuan Jinga is a hot potato.
Taewon Jin-ga, who was treated as an old tiger, was re-sit on the throne of Shanseo Moorim after a long time, so the interest and expectations were not normal.
Even Jang Tae-bo, who lives as a housekeeper in a small village like Janggachon, knows about it.
“Recently, whenever people get together, that’s the story. I’ve said it all, to the point where even civilians who have nothing to do with Moorim flock to it for eye candy.”
“I hope it will come that far.”
“All sorts of miscellaneous things get in the way of a delicacy. No matter how much Shanseo belongs to the periphery, it is the place where Ilseong becomes the leader. Although I am not a Moorim person, the experience I have seen and heard is quite good, so look forward to it. Oh, and… … Jang Tae-bo added a word in a low voice.
“Don’t worry about the request.”
request. When I heard that, something immediately came to my mind.
At the time, I didn’t have time to ask.
“Hey, do you need anything else or anything like that?”
“What do you mean?”
“Aren’t there many things?”
Even if you go to the local laundromat, they give you a repair fee, and Jang Tae-bo is a famous craftsman in the world. Although it may not be as good as when he was active, I don’t think his skills have evaporated in ten years.

Then there must be a price to pay… … .
Jang Tae-bo, who understood my meaning, swept his white beard.
“I will give an example. What is it?”
“To be honest, I can’t do as well as you expect.”
“Then, give me a full blow.”
10,000 nyang is equivalent to 100 nyang of the hermit. It was obviously a huge amount, but given his reputation, it felt like a special discount.
I nodded coolly.
It’s not even my money anyway.
“I will prepare it and send it home.”
“Ten thousand nyang of the hermit? I have to pull out all the pillar roots of Taewon and Jinga.”
“… … Only a hermit?”
“of course. Did my ransom seem so cheap?”
“Then it’s just a million nyang.”
“It’s not a small amount, it’s only a million. I can get it because I am the best recruit in the world, but is that wealth a big deal?”
Of course, big water.
How much is a million nyang in real life, hundreds of billions? Or in trillions?
Seeing my expression, Jang Tae-bo smiled and opened his mouth.
“No need.”
“I’m sorry, but is it possible to make cool trades with 10,000 Nyang… … yes?”
“No need. what am i going to do with it? I won’t be able to use it until I die. It’s enough that this opportunity came in my lifetime.”
Is this the spirit of craftsmanship?
Truly bright. The generals of the world should imitate him and follow him.
Just when I was trembling with emotion, Hyuk Moo-jin intervened with a respectful expression.
“Then why don’t you just take 10,000 nyang and give it to me?”
I think that bastard could write an autobiography. The title is [100 ways to get right].
After slapping him in the back of the head, I respectfully bowed my head to Jang Tae-bo.
“Then please.”
“I have to ask you. It’s hard to say how long it will take, but something that will shake the world will surely come out, so please, by then, equip yourself with the strength and qualifications appropriate for it.”
“I’ll try my best.”
“Yeah, that’s it. I have no choice but to trust you.”
Jang Tae-bo, who nodded, hesitated.
“ah. And can I ask for one thing?”
“”……!”
..?”
“Please rebuild the house. Everything is on fire and there is no place to sleep.”
A home to buy after retirement. The precious space where you spent a comfortable old age disappeared overnight.
Jang Tae-bo’s sad voice naturally turned his gaze to the side. While we are talking, Jeokcheongang, who was quietly drinking, raises his eyes.
“What you looking at.”
The emotional and sincere appearance of Jeokcheongang last night is nowhere to be found.
I slightly averted my gaze.
“… … it’s nothing.”
“If you have something to say, say it. Nobu is not such a narrow-minded person.”
“Can I really do it?”
“try.”
As soon as he finishes talking, the table under the table heats up.
As it turned out, the owner of the inn was a modern man, so there was no way he brought an electric stove.
‘f*ck flame extension.’
I answered with tears in my eyes.
“I was just thinking that you look ten years younger today.”
Jeokcheongang frowned.
“What, ten years?”
Shit, come to think of it, subtracting 10 years from a hundred is ninety.
I quickly changed my mind.
“Twenty years… … “
“Twenty years?”
“Thirty years… … “
In just 3 seconds or so, Jeokcheongang, who had been rejuvenated for 30 years, nodded happily.
“I thought you were a guy with a head full of shit, but you guys have pretty good ideas too.”
Hyuk Moo-jin had something to say on his face, but kept his mouth shut.
It seems that he has no intention of making [100 Ways to Get Right] into a posthumous work.
Instead, he stabbed my side, showing a desperate desire to leave this place right away.
‘Of course, that’s the same for me.’
In order to do that, there is one thing that needs to be done.
I opened my mouth in the most polite tone possible.
“There are a few things I’m in charge of.”
Jeokcheongang, who was tilting his glass with a red face, smiled.
“Did you ever think of giving it back?”
“Of course I have to give it back.”
“yes. If you don’t give it back, you’re going to see it in a bad way.”
Old man, seeing through people like a ghost. With a forced smile, Bosona placed the items she had taken out earlier on the table.
The secret level of the [Flame Kidney] obtained from Jopil.
And it is the [Nameless Sword] made of iron for 10,000 years.
“Enemy Daehyeop already knows, but the Shrine of Desolation… …
“You guys ate it.”
“yes. Yes.”
“But… … Wrinkled fingers tap the table. The dry voice of Jeokcheongang continued.
“Where is the jewel?”
“yes?”
“The jewel. Jewel.”
If it’s a jewel, it’s a treasure, a jewel. What’s that?
Jeokcheongang is not the type to obsess over general jewelry, so it seems certain that it is a very important item.
However, as I was unaware of the existence of Jewel, it was just absurd.
“This is all I got.”
“receive? You mean you didn’t reap it yourself?”
yes. For some reason, I got it right after waking up.”
“Is there anyone suspicious among them?”
It is Gong Ya-cheong and So-cheon who delivered Jo-pil’s belongings. And neither of them are the kind of people to sneak something back.
The same goes for the scouts who were there. I don’t know what happened, but my heart to believe in them has not changed.
“I don’t think so. No, absolutely not.”
Jeokcheongang, who stared blankly at me for a confident answer, opened his mouth.
“It would be either one. Either someone cheated on you, or he lost it.”
“It’s been bothering me. It’s annoying too.”
The reason why Jeokcheongang came back to the world is to find disciples, but also to retrieve the treasures of Yeolhwamun that were leaked.
The jewel he was talking about was one of them.
It is none other than a treasure that the King of Fire must find, even if it is annoyance.
‘shit. I couldn’t even watch it.’
It was a time when a sense of crisis crept up rather than curiosity about what that jewel was.
“I can’t help it. You should keep it first.”
The accident stopped in an instant with a single thrown word.
So now… … .
“You want me to keep these?”
“okay.”
“Both?”
“Three. Did you forget what was in your stomach? What originates from the text must be returned. in any way.”
“”……!”
..!”
“It’s a joke.”
Phew
“Tsk. This young guy already has a liver the size of a pea.”
Beans or cannonballs, it doesn’t matter.
Any more entanglement with that terrifying old man is a 100th specification.
I took a deep breath and opened my mouth.
“I’m sorry, but I will decline… … “
“If you refuse, I will take it back right away. All three.”
“I’m serious this time.”
It gets hot under the table once again. Of course, there is nothing to see, but it is a flame extension.
No, f*ck it.’
They said they would return it to the original owner, but that didn’t work out as well.
I asked, filled with sorrow and resentment.
“Why are you doing this to me?”
“Are you saying that an old man like me should carry something like that cumbersomely? I don’t even have the strength to do that.”
“What if someone takes it away?”
“You’re going to die from the old man.”
“I might learn!”
“Then you will die more painfully.”
What kind of dog is this???… .
Leaving me devastated, the King of Fire rose from his seat. Cheongpung, who is sweeping up the food, raises his head.
“Hahabei, higeho?”
“… … He’s worse than my grandfather. Eat slowly.”
After exchanging eye greetings with Jang Tae-bo, he threw a meaningful word and turned around.
“See you again soon.”
i hate to see forever and ever
