Fabre in Sacheondangga Episode 185
Motherly love 2
It wasn’t easy to force myself to enjoy the hot springs every day.
Since a lot of energy is consumed in water, it is inevitable that you will be hungry after going in and coming out.
“Wow, I’m hungry.”
“So-ryong, would you like to grill some of the leftover venison from yesterday?”
After finishing the search for Hwajeong in the morning and returning, I felt a bit hungry.
When Hwa-eun rubbed her stomach and said she was hungry, she quickly said she would grill venison.
“Would you please do that?”
“Yes, Little Dragon.”
Not long after, Hwa-eun brought back the ribs of the deer that Gung-bong had caught yesterday and grilled them again.
The fragrant aroma of venison wafts through the air.
Thinking about it, I realized that my relationship with Hwa-eun also started with this deer meat, and many thoughts crossed my mind.
Because the conversations I had with my father-in-law and grandfather while eating venison were the beginning of our relationship.
I had just taken a bite of the venison she had handed me, reminiscing about the old days.
The fat from the venison just soaked my tongue, and the rich flavor filled my mouth.
‘They say venison is delicious no matter when you eat it?’
The dragon that jumped up from the well spoke in an urgent voice.
“Huk, huk. So, so, huk. I think it’s going to hatch. I saw something like a thread moving inside the egg!”
Did you run while getting hit by water drops falling from above, with water dripping from your head?
Whether we were just returning from the hot springs or Ji-ryong, we looked the same, wet.
“Really?”
“Yes. Go quickly.”
A month spent in an ethnic minority village in Yunnan near the volcano.
It seemed like the long-awaited giant earwig was finally starting to hatch.
Since the main objective seemed difficult to achieve, the secondary objectives of hatching a chick and securing it were essential.
Because the search for Hwajeong was very difficult.
I searched up and down the waterway for a month, but I couldn’t find any trace of Hwajeong.
I searched the stream of the valley where the hot spring flowed and the rocks and stones nearby, but Hwajeong was nowhere to be found.
That’s why I had almost given up on Hwajeong.
Well, since it was said to be a great treasure like Bingok, it’s probably just Changryong who’s lucky, not us who are unlucky.
Since I had decided to receive Changryong’s things if the search failed anyway, I was a bit relieved.
At first, I didn’t plan on receiving it, but I felt like I had to receive it for Hwayang.
“Thank you! Let’s go, Bin-ah Choya! Please give me Hwa-eun Hwayang.”
-Tsrrrr!
-Tsurut!
He put the rib of the deer he was eating in his mouth and threw the orange potato he had in his arms to Hwa-eun.
-Beep.
A guy with a puzzled expression while flying.
Hwa-eun caught the flying Hwayang like a ball and placed it right back in her arms.
“Okay, Little Dragon.”
The reason why I am leaving Hwayang behind.
It was because I was afraid that Hwayang would take that guy away again and cause an accident.
I still haven’t figured out why Hwayang got so mad that he called Heukgyeomhonggu rice.
I had assumed that the guy was either full of bad energy or had some kind of internal strife, so I decided to leave Hwayang behind.
Because it was a bit similar to the reaction I had when I saw the inner side of Yeondoo, who was a bit of a reactionary.
In that case, Hwayang’s sudden and rash actions were understandable.
Didn’t the gentle Cho, Hyang, and Bin turn into beasts when Naedan appeared before their eyes?
Since I had left Hwayang with me, I decided to quickly head to the bottom of the well where hatching was taking place.
Because it was something I had been waiting for so long, I couldn’t bear it any longer.
“I’ll be back!”
“Ryong-ah, let’s go together! I’m curious too!”
-Tsrrrr!
-Tsururut!
Bin and Cho are chasing after me.
And Seol’s sister follows her, saying she wants to see the hatching scene.
-with a splash.
I quickly jumped down the well and felt the water rising up to my thighs.
He took out a luminous orb from his bosom, lit it, and quickly leaped into the hole on the side.
-Knock knock knock.
“Ryong-ah, let’s go together!”
“I’ll be waiting outside the passage!”
“Oh, I see!”
The ceiling was low, so I had to run in a hunched position for a while.
Immediately an open space appeared.
Let’s wait a moment. Bin-i and Cho chased after me as if they were flying.
Seol’s sister fell to the floor and grabbed his neck.
“It gets harder every time I pass by.”

The height of the passage was too high for my sister, who was an adult.
He said to his sister Seol with a smile.
“Let’s go, sister.”
“Okay. Let’s go quickly.”
After running for a while, I arrived at a place where the afterglow still lingered even after a month, and immediately stopped walking.
A musty smell rushing into my nose.
From here on out, we have to take it slow.
Because the cave can resonate and the sound of footsteps can be loud.
He also put the night light in his arms and performed the cat-child dark night performance of the wild beast palace with his sister Seol.
It felt like energy was gathering in my eyes, and my surroundings were brightening.
When I looked at Seol Noo-ui, her black eyes had grown completely as if she was wearing circle lenses.
[Let’s go quietly from now on.]
[okay.]
After whispering quietly into Seol’s ear.
I asked Bin-i and Cho to be quiet in my heart and then started walking forward again.
And then walk like that for a while.
In front of me, I saw a place where the stones from the stone pillar that had broken off last time were piled up.
Over there is the breeding ground of the Black and Red Gu.
Seol’s sister, Bin-i and I crept slowly and hid behind the pile of rocks.
Then, in the corner in front of me, a black-and-red-tailed hawk catches my eye.
Let’s focus a little more. Under the guy’s belly, I could see yellow eggs, no, now hatching eggs, swarming around.
Yellow guys, just like when Cho, Hyang, and Bin were first born.
The boys were scurrying around under their mother’s arms.
[Wow. The little dragons are bustling.]
The admiring voice of Sister Seol, who had checked on the guys.
I was also watching the babies being born with a happy heart, but Sister Seol’s questions continued.
[Huh? Little Dragon. But the babies don’t have tongs?]
As Sister Seol said, yellow earwigs with two long hairs instead of a tail.
There’s a reason why those guys look like that.
This is because the pincers on the tail of an earwig are not actually pincers, but rather an organ called the mimo that has transformed into one of its appendages.
Cerci in English means beauty or hindquarters.
The two-stranded tail seen on the tail of a dragonfly or cockroach.
That’s the tail hair.
That is why newborn baby earwigs only have long hairs instead of pincers.
As it grows, it turns into a pair of tongs.
[Those long hairs will grow and shed their skin a few times before they turn into pincers.]
[Oh. Really?]
[Yes, Sister Seol.]
[I think insects are much more mysterious than beasts.]
Seol’s eyes sparkle at my explanation.
Just when I thought I had the taste to teach, my excellent students’ questions followed.
[But Ryong-ah, I have a question. Why is that guy’s name Heukgyeom Honggu? The pincers on his tail are closer to a sword or a dagger than a sickle. Shouldn’t it be called Ssanggeom Honggu (雙劍紅蠷) or Ssangdo Honggu (雙刀紅蠷)?]
Wow. That was a good question.
As expected, she was the perfect match for this spicy Fabre’s sister.
The word humility refers to a sword placed around the neck of a criminal, but the tail of the mother dog that chased us was a pair of pincers, but it was clearly closer to a pair of scissors or a sword.
But there must have been a reason why those guys were called Heukgyeomhonggu.
Usually, female earwigs have sharp teeth like that, but males usually have hook-shaped teeth, like the swords they use to inflict on criminals.
The earwig is an insect whose pincers have different shapes depending on the gender.
[Oh, the male Gusu originally had a hook-shaped tail, and the female had a sword-shaped tail, but perhaps the person who named it only saw the male.]
[As expected, it’s our little dragon. I told you, he knows everything.]
It was when I was receiving a look of respect from my sister-in-law for the first time in a long time, and was sending her a look that told her that she should be proud of her younger brother, who was like this.
An exclamation mark suddenly appeared on Seol’s face as she turned her gaze from me back to Heukgyeomhonggu.
“!”
Sister Seol suddenly looked very flustered and then grabbed my shoulder tightly.
It was when I blinked at Seol’s sudden action.
Seol’s sister whispered softly in my ear with a trembling voice.
[Hey, the scent!]
[Fragrance?]
If it’s fragrance, it’s the guy who sleeps in your arms.
I felt inside her arms, but there was no scent.
I opened my eyes wide, wondering if I had spilled it in the middle of running like crazy.
Sister Seol grabbed my head with both hands and forcibly turned my head towards Heukgyeomhonggu.
At that moment, I was wondering what on earth this action meant.
There are yellow and blue dots on the cave wall beyond the Black and Red Rocks in the distance…
‘Huh, Hyang-i!? Hyang-i! What on earth are you doing there!’
Before I knew it, Hyang-i had slipped out of my arms and was stuck to the cave wall behind Heukgyeomhonggu.
When my mind went blank at the sudden appearance of Hyang-i, an innocent voice rang in my head.
‘Tsuru!’ “Dad, what’s here? Hyang-i found it!”
It was the moment when I sent a message telling him to come back quickly.
It seemed as if Hyang-i was biting something stuck in the wall and struggling, but then something was pulled out from the quiet cave wall with a loud noise.
-Dalgrak.
-Tok. Toktoktorrurr···.
As the stone pulled out of Hyang-i’s mouth fell to the floor, it felt as if lightning had struck the quiet cave.
Then, the head of Heukgyeomhonggu immediately turns around.
The tail of Heukgyeomhonggu, who discovered Hyang-i, began to wriggle.
-Crunch. Crunch.
And then the tail of the black and red sphere suddenly sticks out.
-Bam!
The tail of the Black and Red Goat was stuck and the scent was fixed to the cave wall.
“Hyang-ah!”
“Gyaaaah! Hyang-ah!”
-Tsrrrr!
Let’s run out screaming, the scent caught between the guy’s tongs.
The scent that was fixed between the tongs of Heukgyeomhonggu was biting the tongs and resisting, demanding to be let go.
If we leave it like this, our Hyang-i will become a Hya/Yi.
He quickly ran out and shouted at Heukgyeomhonggu.
Because it’s a father’s duty to save his daughter.
“Okay, wait a minute!”
Then, Heukgyeomhonggu slowly looked towards me.
I don’t know if the guy will understand, but I raised my hand to explain that I have no hostile intentions.
“Calm down. Calm down. I know what you’re trying to do. Don’t do it. My daughter was just a kid and was curious about you. She didn’t mean to do anything to you or your child.”
-Trut?
The cry of the black and red earwig, a giant earwig heard for the first time.
As expected, it felt like it could understand human speech.
That would be the case, because the guy had a look on his face like he didn’t understand.
“You may not understand, but she is my daughter. These children here are also my daughters.”
I mentally told Bin-i and Cho to come over to me, and they quickly crawled over to me.
At the sight of the two, Heukgyeomhonggu flinched and covered the pups under his belly with his body.
“We won’t do anything. So don’t worry.”
Heukgyeomhonggu is still very wary of what I say, but he doesn’t make any moves as if he’s heard more of the story.
I proposed to the guy.
“I know you’re going to die soon. So if you send my daughter back safely, we’ll help your child live well after you die.
“I’m also a parent. I can understand that much. What do you think?”
If we harmed Hyang-i, it was clear that Heuk-gyeom-hong-gu and his pups would not be safe from the enraged Cho and Bin-i, but what we needed was negotiation, not threats.
-Tsrrrr!
-Tsururut!
Cho and Bin-i also seemed to be saying something, but the look in Heukgyeomhonggu’s eyes seemed to change subtly at my words, and she carefully grabbed Hyang-i by the tail and placed it down in front of her head.
Perhaps the negotiation will work out.
“Thank you. I will definitely keep my promise. And please understand that I will come and check on you from time to time. I need to know when you are leaving.”
The head of the black and red-haired mother nodded slightly at my last words.
I held Hyang-i, who had crawled in, in my arms and checked to see if she was hurt anywhere.
There doesn’t appear to be any major injuries.
As Cho, Bin-i, and Seol-nu retreated back to the well passage, Seol-nu asked me with an expression that still hadn’t calmed down.
“Did you see it?”
I nodded at those words.
I knew what my sister was talking about.
“yes.”
Because I confirmed that a large flower was stuck in the wall that was broken by the attack of Heukgyeomhonggu, and that it was sparkling.
And the antennae and toes of the scented plant are also dyed red.
