Chapter 25
25 times. Selling drugs in front of anyone!
There are ten people left in Sanghwagak.
They are the owner Poong Yeon-cho, and the six sworn brothers Chae-yeon Han, So-baek Has, and Cheol-san Lee.
Poongyeoncho, who had been scratching her head, said with a confused face.
“I’m sorry for being stubborn and thank you for staying.”
Full of turbulence, Poongyeoncho made eye contact with each one and nodded.
However, apart from the women who learn martial arts from their sworn brothers and Yeonjeok-ha, Cheol-san Lee is a bit surprising. No matter how much I think about it, I don’t know why he stayed by my side.
So Poongyeoncho felt more grateful to Cheolsan Lee.
“Cheolsan…was a loyal guy.”
Lee Cheol-san only laughed awkwardly at Poongyeoncho’s moving eyes.
After a while, Poong Yeon-cho, who had calmed down, led the people outside. It is to block the entrance leading to the sanchae, as in the case of the last time to Namyang Sangbang.
It wasn’t difficult because I’ve only experienced it once.
Before the sun went down, Poongyeoncho and the remaining bandits were able to erect the second wall as well as the entrance. Construction materials remained in the wild, so the time was shortened.
When night fell, Obong Sanchae was immersed in darkness.
It was crowded with people only in the morning, but now it is as quiet as a cemetery. The sanchae where all the fans and children were sent down was the very silence.
Poongyeoncho lit a bonfire in the yard.
People gathered around the campfire one by one, probably because the bed was a mess.
When all the people gathered, Poongyeoncho revealed her thoughts.
“I think it would be better to take turns starting today and stand guard. I should be there tomorrow, but I might make a surprise raid.”
The thieves nodded at his words.
It usually takes about two days to get to the order, but if you are determined and hurry, you can go in one day.
“If you see the old guru, he will run away by the back road, so prepare your mind well.”
“Yes bro.”
“I’ll open my eyes wide and see.”
Poongyeoncho looked around at her younger brothers with mixed eyes.
Tak Go-myeong, who was once a prisoner, escaped robber Ma Hyeong-do, petty thief Heo Im-dal, Goksancheong and Jang So-bong, former slash-and-burn residents. Looking back, it’s already been five years since we’ve been together.
I even made a brother-in-law to take advantage of my brother-in-law, but now that I think about it, I think I did really well. He didn’t know that they would stay by his side until the end.
“I feel like a lucky person.”
The thieves who noticed Poongyeoncho’s heart laughed.
Han Chae-yeon, who was digging through the fire with a branch, suddenly jumped up from her seat.
“Big brother.”
“why?”
“Don’t discriminate against people, and join us as sworn brothers. Regardless of whether we live or die, we have to be together. yes?”
After thinking for a while, Poongyeoncho asked the other two.
“Do you guys agree with Chaeyeon?”
“yes!”
“yes.”
Ha So-baek was what he usually wanted, but Lee Chul-san was swept away by the atmosphere and replied quickly. No one can say that he is not alone in a place like this.
“hmm! okay? I don’t think I’m bad, but what do you guys think?”
The six sworn brothers did not particularly object.
Those three deserved to be sworn brothers just by remaining alive.
“Good good. In the future, Cheolsan will be eight, Chaeyeon will be nine, and Sobaek will be the youngest.”
Thus, the number of sworn brothers increased to ten.
There was no grandiose ceremony to sign a bloody brotherhood, but Han Chae-yeon smiled. This is because he knows that Poongyeoncho and his six sworn brothers were roughly united in this way.
If there was a thief who knew formality, I don’t know if he would have imitated the Taoyuan Resolution of the Romance of the Three Kingdoms. However, Poongyeoncho as well as other thieves were of low level and did not know that they were lacking.
He didn’t hate the increased number of sworn brothers.
To him, a sworn brother was not a ‘precious person with whom he shared life and death’, but a close person. It was a step further from what thieves habitually refer to as “brothers and family members.”
***
The next evening, Mansu Sangbang’s subjugation party arrived at Haga Village.
The first thing Sangmu-cheon, the supreme leader and the fierce swordsman, did was to find a place to stay. It was because the inn in Haga Village could not accommodate seventy members of the punitive force.
He first distributed the vacant rooms in the inn to merchants and landlords. And for other samurai to sleep, they went around the village with the village chief.
Late at night when everyone is asleep.
Sang Moo-cheon and the two landlords managed to finish arranging the accommodation and gathered at the restaurant. It is to solve the dinner that was postponed later.
The chef, who was resting at the inn, was called out again for the three of them, but he did not lose his smile. This is because Sangbang Mansu is a big customer at the inn.
With a simple dinner ahead, Kang Moo-deok, Daeju of Baekrangdae, said.
“Did you see the face of the village chief, Daejoo Dong? He looked like he was completely chewing shit…”
Daeju of Heukwoongdae, Daeryokkwon Donghaksu nodded his head as if agreeing.
“That’s right. I came to subdue the bandits, but why are you so rugged?”
As the two grumbled, Sang Mu-cheon, the head of the company, laughed.
“Well, it must have been embarrassing to come late and ask to rent a house. The village chief worked hard until late to guide us, so don’t say too much.”
“Who wrote it for free? They gave me plenty of money…”
“I’m full, I’m full.”
Despite the patriarch’s dissuade, the two feudal lords did not stop talking behind the village headman. It was the first time he had been treated badly while traveling as the head of Mansu Sangbang, so it was a great shock.
As the meal was almost over, someone approached the three of them.
Sangmucheon, who glanced back, pretended to know.
“Baekdaeju? Nice to meet you.”
Baek Ahn-gi, the master of painting style of Baekhwa Sangbang in Dongbaek-hyun, nearby, threw a fist at the three people.
“Long time no see. I asked who they were late at night, and they were from Mansu Sangbang.”
The four of them stared at each other with awkward expressions.
Sang Mu-cheon, the eldest, got lucky first.
“I didn’t hear that there was an upper room today… What have you been up to now?”
Sangmucheon thought, ‘It seems that the Baekhwa Sangbang came to spy on him.’ Just as Sangbang Mansu did when Sangbang Namyang sent a punitive force to Hagachon.
But that was a misunderstanding of Sangmucheon.
Baek Ahn-gi hesitated for a moment and said with an ambiguous expression.
“I am on my way to find a new trade route under the direction of the ark. Ah, I heard the story of Sangbang Mansu here.”
That means they didn’t come here for spying.
Sangmucheon smiled as if it didn’t matter.
“I must have had Obongsan-ro in mind at Baekhwa Sangbang. Good news will come tomorrow.”
“I hope for good results. Then I’m done.”
Baek An-gi left town and turned around.
His expression as he walked to the dorm looked somewhat confused. It’s a really good prize, so I came to check it out and met the subjugation party, so I had no choice but to do it.
Unaware of such speed, Kang Moo-deok lightly clicked his tongue.
“Tsk! We do the tricks, and the department store may make the money.”
Sangmucheon said in a calm tone.
“Never mind. After all, we only have to be responsible for escorting the upper ranks. Isn’t business the responsibility of merchants? The arks will take care of solving the Sangro problem.”
Dong Hak Soo, who was drinking tea in silence, spoke to Moo Deok Kang.
“By the way, the young thief of Obong Sanchae, Lord Kang.”
“Yes
.”
Sang Mu-cheon also watched Kang Moo-deok’s mouth with curious eyes.
It was because I was curious about his evaluation after directly confronting a young thief in Obongsan Mountain.
But unexpectedly, Moo-deok Kang’s mouth did not open easily.
“well. five seconds? ten seconds? twenty seconds?”
It’s been a while since I’ve responded, but even so, it’s still questionable.
That means it’s not possible how long to fight.
Sangmucheon frowned.
Still, there was no change in Kang Moo-hyuk’s attitude. The feeling of frustration slowly turned into discomfort. That is not a courtesy to the respected Master.
The atmosphere became cheap.
Nevertheless, Moo-deok Kang did not give Sang Mu-cheon the answer he wanted.
Moo-deok Kang, who went to bed, was tossing and turning, thinking about what happened at the restaurant.
Of course, he fully understands the feelings of the patriarch.
But if you know the young thief’s inaction, you can guess!
***
The fateful day has finally dawned.
Mansu Sangbang’s subjugation party formed a team and climbed Obongsan Mountain with great vigor.
Had it been an hour or so?
It’s been a long time since they crossed the halfway point, but the bandits didn’t even show their noses.
Daeju Dong Hak-soo of Heukwoong University burst into laughter.
“Pu-huh-huh! Looks like the thieves have already thrown out all of them.”
“Doesn’t it seem like that?”
Kang Moo-deok, Daeju of the Baekrangdae, had no different thoughts.
It often happens that bandits under the influence of the punitive force abandon their living quarters and run away.
Even between the upper warriors, words began to come out.
As the atmosphere seemed to be disturbed, the head of the company, Sangmu-cheon, gave a light warning.
“Don’t let your guard down. Until now, there has never been an empty forest without a fight.”
Dong Hak-soo and Kang Moo-deok looked around with puzzled faces.
That’s right. That’s what makes Noklimdo different from ordinary bandits. The owners of green forests valued face just as much as the famous masters of Moorim.
The long procession of the punitive forces had stopped.
After a while, one of the warriors in the lead hurriedly ran.
“The road is blocked with logs.”
Sangmucheon, who exchanged meaningful glances with the two major shareholders, stepped forward.
Indeed, the narrow uphill road was blocked with logs.
I felt like I knew what was going on behind it, even without seeing it with my own eyes.
Five bladed poles glistened in the sunlight on top of the wooden fence.
Funny enough, it seems that the thieves at Obongsanchae decided to fight instead of running away.
Sangmu-geuk took a few steps forward.
“Nobu is the chief executive of Mansu Sangbang! The courage to not run away is imaginary, but please understand that I have no choice but to open the killing system today.”
As a non-partisan secular disciple, Sangmu-geuk’s greeting was polite in a bloody manner.
After a while, the head of a windmill rose above the wooden fence.
“I am the person who is said to have the appearance of Chaeju of Obong Sanchae! Sang Mu-cheon, you son of a bitch! Crying and crying and clinging to the shaman faction, you said that you brought the Merchant of Heaven and Earth with you, is it true!”
Contrary to the loud voice, Poongyeoncho’s eyes were diligently scanning the subjugation party.
However, no one seems to be a guru after looking at it several times.
Poongyeoncho, who thought that she had been deceived by Sangbang Mansu’s lies, immediately poured out curses.
“You bastards who aren’t even as good as dogs! Now sell drugs in front of anyone! Did you think we would run away scared by that senile old man! Arthur! Fools! It’s not the merchant of heaven and earth, but even if someone worse than that comes, I won’t budge!”
Thinking that there is no trader in heaven and earth, Poongyeoncho even smiled at the subjugation party.
Surprised by Poongyeoncho’s reckless hair, Sangmugeuk hurriedly looked back. My hands trembled at the thought that ‘teacher’s clear name was sprinkled with feces’.
Even the giants of the green forest don’t dare to do such a thing, so what kind of thunderbolt is this! What the hell is a guy who needs to shed tears to save?
‘omg! Aren’t you there?’
The teacher who was with him a moment ago was nowhere to be seen.
The same is true of the two major shareholders.
When the merchants of heaven and earth disappeared like ghosts, the heads of the masters quickly turned left and right.
that’s when
“Go!”
Someone fell onto the log wall with a loud shout that shook the heavens and the earth. He was a non-partisan elder, a merchant of heaven and earth, who flew five chapters (about 15 meters) at once.
When he lightly shook his hand, the five poles were cut off and fell apart.
Before long, the merchant’s feet touched the wooden fence.
Kwurlung.
Logs burst out from my ignorant efforts, and the walls collapsed.
All of these things happened during one breath of Poongyeoncho.
Poongyeoncho met eyes with the merchant of heaven and earth, and it hardened like a frog in front of a snake.
It’s messed up.
