Heavenly Inquisition Sword

Episode 104. Why do adults beat children?

Poong Yeon-cho and Tak Go-myung knew who they wanted to meet. So I wasn’t surprised when I saw her sitting there.

But the speakers are different.

All she knows is that the other person’s last name is ‘Pungga’ and ‘Takga’.

“…”

At first, I didn’t even recognize the speaker.

Unlike when they were in Obongsanchae, Poongyeoncho and Takgomyeong were in good shape, so I couldn’t even guess.

Poong Yeon-cho threw away the leather clothes he always wore, and Tak Go-myeong tidied up his shaggy beard. That alone made the two completely different.

However, the speaker is an unmanned person with excellent eyesight.

The moment she sat face-to-face with the two, she thought, “Familiar.”

Where did you see it?

I couldn’t immediately remember where it was, but it was definitely not Waryongjang.

After an awkward silence, Poongyeoncho spoke first.

“It’s been a while since Yeon-soo.”

In an instant, the speaker’s eyes widened.

As soon as I heard the voice, the hazy fog that seemed like a lie lifted.

He was the eldest brother of Obong Tengeol and the owner of Obong Sanchae.

And the person next to him is a debt owner!

“Why are you here!”

The startled speaker jumped up from his seat.

No matter how cluttered the world may be, how dare the thieves of the green forest roam the city in broad daylight!

‘omg! Then, what about the old man and the boy who were said to have helped the Pungga and Takga?’

The speaker, who had been standing there blankly, suddenly spoke coldly.

“Oh my! now i get it I heard that the ronin sold Waryongjang’s Gucheongumbo here and there. With the martial arts you stole like that, you’re going to play the role of a ronin now?”

“I’ll explain, so calm down and sit down.”

At the words of Poongyeoncho, the speaker shouted out loud.

“What an explanation! What did you guys do to our Waryongjang! So, do you dare to imitate a nangin with Waryongjang’s swordsmanship now?”

After speaking, the speaker looked around.

It reminded me of a young thief who belatedly fought with Uicheon Geomjon, the greatest master in the world.

Unable to see, Takgomyeong bluntly shot at him.

“Do you think we came here because we liked you? Sit or just go, you know. We have nothing to lose anyway.”

The speaker hesitated for a moment, then sat down again.

He thought it would not be too late to act after hearing the story. The presence of Oh Bon Ten Girl was too great to work according to his temper.

“joy! What nonsense are you talking about?”

She showed extreme reluctance by twisting her upper body and sitting on her side.

Poongyeoncho shook her head at the sight and said.

“Do you remember my younger brother who had a quarrel with Yeon So-jeo?”

“I don’t know why the story of him is coming out here.”

The speaker was going to say ‘the guy’, but secretly changed his words to ‘the guy’. This is because if he comes and messes with you, you will lose your job.

“Your younger brother’s name is Yeonjeokha. Waryongjang’s fourth Confucius Yeonjeokha. I’m sure you’ll understand why he did this to you, even if he doesn’t have to explain.”

“…”

At that moment, the speaker’s body stiffened.

do you want to get married?

The fourth Confucius of Waryongjang?

The nemesis who ran away after being locked up in a warehouse for ten years?

As I thought about that, my face suddenly turned hot.

After his father’s corpse was raped, Waryongjang’s name was buried in the ground. If the story of Yeonjeokha was known, he would not be able to carry his face.

Takgomyeong said in a sarcastic tone.

“Looking at your shyness, you seem to understand the situation. Our sworn brothers learned swordsmanship from younger brother Yeon. You and I can be called alumni. I’m here to let you know.”

“That can’t be.”

The speaker’s face was stained with disbelief.

How could he learn such martial arts when he was locked up in a warehouse?

“Yeon’s younger brother has cut ties with you Yeonssi. So don’t expect too much from us.”

“By the way, not only our two brothers, but most of the 5,000,000,000 girls have left the green forest. It’s not a past that I’m proud enough to bring up in front of others, so please cooperate so I can go ahead with the question.”

Unlike Takgo-myeong, who was callous, Poong Yeon-cho spoke softly.

In fact, his proposal was nothing special.

Among the ronin, there were not a few people who had a more terrible past than them.

The speaker, who was staring into space with a bewildered face, asked.

“…is he really an enemy?”

Perhaps there was a change in his mind, and his tone became more polite.

As the speaker faded away, Tak Go-myeong said, “Shit,” and looked out the window.

Poongyeoncho confirmed it again and again.

“exactly.”

“Did you learn Waryongjang’s swordsmanship from him?”

“Right.”

“ha! As you said, he is my brother’s enemy. He was six years old when he was locked in a warehouse. He has never formally learned swordsmanship. How did he…”

“I wonder how he taught us swordsmanship?”

“is it so.”

“You said you got a gift left by your ancestors in the warehouse. You escaped after learning it. After that, he wandered and begged, and was found by us right before he died.”

“I can’t believe it. To think that he wandered and begged with such desperate martial arts.”

“A boy who was locked up in a warehouse at the age of six and cut off from the world for ten years. He thought of running far away from Waryongjang, so he just walked aimlessly. So what else is there to do but beg for wandering?”

“…”

The speaker bit his lip.

It was as if he vaguely knew what condition Yeonjeokha was in.

“He is still as ignorant as a child about life in the world. Don’t blame your mother for everything. Do you think that those who stood by were not guilty?”

“I…”

She tried to retort, but her mouth didn’t come out.

She was nine years old when she was locked in a warehouse. After that, I pretended not to know even if I knew about it for a whopping ten years. Everyone took it for granted, so he didn’t think it was his fault either.

Takgomyeong, who had been acting on the other side, suddenly interrupted.

“I’ll say it again, Yeon’s younger brother cut ties with them. So come now, you don’t have to worry about whether you did well or did wrong. It would be better not to think of anything other than that we are just the same year.”

“…I have no intention of coming forward as his sister now.”

“Good luck. I think I understood the language. Let’s sort it out now. Why did you suddenly ask to see us?”

“Because you guys are from Waryongjang. Because alumni shouldn’t fight with each other…”

Tak Go-myeong kept his mouth shut at the speaker’s words.

It was a little strange to fight because they were on different sides even though they were definitely alumni.

As soon as she finished speaking, Poongyeoncho stepped out.

“So, what do you think of Yeon Sojeo?”

“In the case of an alumni, usually the lower person makes concessions. But I don’t think of you as alumni.”

Takgomyeong, who was hot-headed, said with a sneer and said, “Hey.”

“Good. We have no intention of conceding either.”

The speaker stood up slowly.

“I will never reveal your past with my mouth. But I have no intention of seeing him in a fight. If you want to live a long time, you better act on your own.”

The speaker left without listening to the two people’s answers.

“What are you saying now?”

“You mean let’s try it.”

“Do we look very complacent?”

“Honestly, can we be full in the eyes of the Yeons who have been practicing Waryongjang swordsmanship for over ten years?”

“I see…”

Poongyeoncho looked at the empty seat with mixed eyes.

I hoped not to fight with the Yeonssi as much as possible, but I think it was wrong.

***

Unboxing.

Haewon Upstairs.

“…They learned Waryongjang’s swordsmanship, but they were people I didn’t know. I think I learned from the ronins who fell away from Waryongjang.”

The face of Cheon Kyung-dae, Dae-ju, and the speaker, speaking to Yang Seung-won, the acting manager, was calm.

Strictly speaking, he is also a person who has fallen away from Waryongjang, so it is not a lie.

Yang Seung-won clicked his tongue as if he was sorry.

“Tsk! If he had been Waryongjang’s immediate disciple, things would have been easily solved. I must have learned from the ronin. It seems that Yeon Dae-ju and Waryong-jang’s swordsmanship is amazing.”

“…”

A bitter smile appeared on the speaker’s face.

Waryongjang once heard the sound of a shaman song second only to Uicheonmun in Nakyang. It’s all in the past now.

Returning to the lodging, the speaker was locked in thought for a while.

‘Should I tell my older brothers about this?’

It would be quite surprising to hear that the young thief from Obong Sanchae had a relationship.

‘ah! Come to think of it, I didn’t even ask where

the enemy was now…’ As I thought about it, I became a bit uneasy.

This is why if Yeon Jeok-ha intervenes in this matter, he will have to give up Jinanya City.

No, Poongga and Takga are also troublesome right now.

It was obvious that if they died, the enemy enemy would take revenge.

‘Even if it’s not like that, if it’s Waryongjang, he’ll be grinding his teeth, so he won’t stay still…’

It’s not even a job to close the door at Haewon Sangbang once he steps out.

Wasn’t the ark of the upper reaches of the Dead Sea also dragged away by the government department?

The speaker, who had been rolling his head, hurriedly rose from his seat.

For now, he decided to tell Jeongju’s brothers about this.

***

“Give me a penny! yes?”

“My dears, pick up a penny!”

Beggars were coming in front of me.

People scattered to the left and right to avoid the crowd of beggars.

Yeonjeokha, Gucheonnodo, and Heartache also stood aside in a daze.

The beggars clung to the people like a school of carp that had seen its prey.

However, Yeonjeokha and Heartache were exceptions.

When the beggars saw the swords hanging from their waists, they did not dare to approach them.

“My merciful mistress like Avalokitesvara Bodhisattva, please save one poor life! I became an orphan early and have no one to turn to. Please have pity on me…”

The young enemy’s gaze turned to one side at the familiar sound.

A young boy with scattered hair was begging a woman in her forties.

However, a woman in her forties quickly passed by, dodging here and there.

It is when a child who has lost his goal is standing in a daze.

A beggar who looked to be in his twenties hit the back of the head with a gourd.

“Sick! What are you doing! I can’t work soon!”

Only then did the child touch her hair and walk quickly to find another object.

The eyes of the young man and the young man who were looking around met.

The young Sogwanggae smiled awkwardly and bowed his head.

It was embarrassing to think that I had caught the scene of the kid wiping.

Yeonjeokha waved his hand at the young man.

“Oops! did you call? Confucius.”

Sogwanggae wandered over to see if he could get some money.

Yeonjeokha looked at the young man carefully.

Judging from his well-proportioned physique and the twinkling eyes, he was someone who had mastered his history.

“hey.”

“yes?”

“Why do grown adults beat children?”

“It wasn’t that I hit you… in the sense of asking you to do well…”

“You hit me to be good?”

“I didn’t hit you.”

Sogwanggae cringed, but his stomach twisted slightly.

It was very unpleasant to see a guy with no blood on his head interfering.

I glanced at the old man next to the boy, but he didn’t see anything special. It seems that Confucius, a shaman who does not know the world, went out with an old man.

‘Look at this?’

Are you arguing with open beggars?

Isn’t it a perfect opponent to extort money!

As the story grew longer, the big beggars gathered one by one.

This time, Sogwanggae grinned at the boy, showing his yellow teeth.

“By the way, what are you doing, you keep saying shit from earlier? Do you know that a beggar has no money and no pride? Yes? Are you the proud Gongja?”
