Chapter 193
Episode 193: What a windfall (1)
After finishing work, Yu Jin-san started by boiling noodles for his granddaughter.
Then, he sat down with Manho separately and was having a conversation.
“But what are those seeds? “It didn’t look out of the ordinary.”
It was an item contained in a box found at the altar.
It was now stored somewhere in Yuseol.
“you’re right. Seeds created through rituals over a long period of time have special power.”
“My granddaughter wants to plant something in the garden. Are there any problems?”
Manho answered right away without the slightest hesitation.
“Seeds mean creation. It is something that beings who deny the authority of God should stay away from. “There will be no problem.”
“Then I guess I don’t mind leaving it alone.”
“yes. “Perhaps, if my guess is right… the elixir might grow.”
What is a spirit medicine? It was a sacred medicine with mysterious effects, such as improving internal energy.
According to his words, it was no different from a very rare treasure.
“Elixir seed? “Is that really true?”
“I guess you have to plant it to know for sure. But there are costs to unconventional ways. Maybe the effect is less effective than expected….”
Man-ho’s last words did not even reach Yu Jin-san’s ears.
He already felt like he had made a fortune. So much so that it makes me smile.
“Well, what if the effect isn’t great? “If we can harvest it in large quantities, there will be times when it can be useful.”
Manho nodded once with a small smile as if he agreed.
“Yes, what you said is correct. By the way, are your hands really okay?”
Yu Jin-san responded by showing his left hand on the table.
“It’s nothing. “Except for the feeling of some strange energy.”
“You have to keep trying to control that energy little by little.”
“Effort? “How can you say that?”
“It’s not difficult.”
Manho gently wrapped his hand with both hands.
Then, he pulled out the prayer beads from his wrist.
I said you shouldn’t take it out carelessly. It was an unexpected and embarrassing situation.
“What are you doing now?”
A black air current began to creep out from my hand.
I felt uneasy because of the bad vibes, but there must be a reason why Man-ho was acting like this.
Jinsan Yu calmed down and waited calmly.
Only after one more breath had passed did Manho fill the prayer beads again.
“How was it?”
“When I took off the prayer beads, I felt an uncontrollable power. “At the same time, I felt like I wanted to destroy everything.”
“He is tempting. Instead of being controlled by that power, the elders must control it.”
“hmm. “So you’re saying I can use this demon’s power?”
“yes. However, you should not leave the prayer beads out for too long. “Try to increase the time little by little.”
Jinsan Yu massaged his left hand and nodded.
“It’s a double-edged sword. However, if you use it well, it can be useful.”
If it could be applied to martial arts, it would become a devil’s new skill that would never exist again in the world.
It might not be used often, but it seemed like it would be helpful for a little while in an emergency situation.
“Yes, old man. “Then, from now on, I’m going to clean up the house.”
“What are you organizing?”
“The house is still full of evil spirits. “Everyone must be relocated.”
“They are members of the Baekyeongyo Church who harmed me.”
“yes. “After the sect leader’s soul disappeared, the power of the spirits weakened, so exorcism will not be difficult.”
Jin-san Yu also responded with a warm smile to Man-ho’s meticulous consideration.
“Thank you. “I owe you a lot for this.”
“you’re welcome. Once the ritual is over, strange things will no longer happen.”
The sound that had filled every corner of the manor could no longer be found.
Even though the sunrise had just begun, it was already filled with a warm atmosphere.
It was finally transformed from the worst hideous house into a comfortable residence.
Jo-son and Man-ho were saying goodbye at the entrance of the manor.
“We will take you there. “How could I let you go alone?”
It was Man-ho who was almost kidnapped by his granddaughter from a far away place.
It took two hours to get there, but it would take more than three days at the earliest for him to return alone.
Still, he waved his hands and refused.
“It’s really okay. “Now that I am in Shaanxi, I plan to go to famous mountains and practice.”
However, Yu Jin-san was the type of person who had to give back whatever he received to relieve his anger.
Since I was brought here in a hurry, the bag must be light.
He forcefully gave Man-ho two silver coins.
“You shouldn’t be hungry while training. Then, please receive travel expenses.”
“I can’t believe you gave me this much… But since it is a sincere gesture from the elder, I will not decline.”
Just as Man-ho was about to turn away, Yu-seol waved his hand with a regretful expression.
“Uncle Manho, come visit again next time~”
“Yes! See you again, Seol.”
Zhao Son stood shoulder to shoulder and silently watched him walk away.
Was it because his back felt lonely? Eugene San’s gaze was full of regret.
‘It would be nice if that guy still had a family.’
The memory of his only son suffering such a tragic incident came back to me as if it were yesterday.
It was admirable to see him overcome the pain and continue his practice even though he was holding the pain in his heart.
“Grandpa, what are you thinking now?”
To tell the truth, there was no need to make my granddaughter depressed.
“I was thinking about what to plant in the garden today.”
“They said they would plant eggplants and pumpkins for me to eat. “I will plant treasure seeds.”
Truly, no one could match his memory.
Jinsan Yu smiled and walked away.
“Well, I did. “Let’s change our clothes and go out to the field.”
Now that everything has returned to normal, there is a lot more to do.
After finishing the sowing work in the morning, I planned to continue training in the afternoon.
Joson came out to the garden wearing a straw hat and his pants pulled up to his thighs.
In just one day, everything changed completely.
It was an especially nice day with the feeling of warm morning sunlight.
“You can’t plant things so haphazardly.”
Yu Jin-san, who was watching his granddaughter, couldn’t help but nag her.
Is it because this is my first time planting seeds? Unexpectedly, the sight of my granddaughter planting seeds was a bit awkward.
“no. “I planted it with all my heart.”
As expected, I couldn’t handle his stubbornness, just like his father.
“Watch what grandpa does. “You have to plant them one at a time at the appropriate spacing and depth for them to grow well.”
“I’m going to plant two at a time. “Don’t grow up lonely.”
Jinsan Yu sighed and shook his head.
“Yes, it is up to the farmer to decide how to plant. “Do whatever you want.”
“okay. “It will definitely grow more delicious.”
The structure of the field was divided in half.
One side was planted with vegetables and fruits, and the other side was planted with unidentified seeds taken from underground.
If the elixir were to come out as Man-ho said, it would be a complete disaster. I couldn’t help but wonder what would grow.
After a while, while he was still planting seeds, he raised his head and glanced at his granddaughter.
“Baby, it’s lonely. Why don’t you try singing?”
At the word song, a smile immediately appeared on Yu Seol’s face.
“Hi-Hi. my song? “Do you want to hear it?”
“OK. “I heard it before and it was quite exciting.”
Yu Seol had never learned to sing. Nevertheless, my natural senses were quite good.
Yuseol cleared his throat a few times and soon began to sing.
“Lala~ The most delicious vegetable in the world~ The two of us are planting~ Grandpa has one and I have two! Seol is a good listener~ A nagging old man! “Lala~ Lala~”
Yu Seol’s song continued with a very fast beat.
He seemed to be excited as he was humming and nodding his head.
When the song ended, Jinsan Yu laughed for a long time.
“It was the best. “Our Seol is as good at singing as he is at martial arts.”
I’ve never heard a tune like this anywhere before.
The lyrics were a bit annoying, but the talent was excellent.
Yoo Seol’s mood soared to the sky due to her grandfather’s high praise.
“Hehehe. “Do you want me to teach you?”
“no. “You can’t do that with your spare money.”
At that time, Yoo Seol stood up and began to approach me with a meaningful smile.
“you can do it. “Try following along.”
Yu Jin-san suddenly became scared. It was because the granddaughter did not easily give up her will when she made that kind of expression.
It seemed like they were ready to force him to do it.
“Ah, you can’t do it?”
It was when Yu Jin-san was crying.
Suddenly, Yu Seol’s expression changed subtly right in front of his nose.
The way he tilted his head seemed to indicate something.
“Grandpa, a guest has arrived.”
A guest out of nowhere.
There was no one to guess, but it was an opportunity to escape the crisis.
“Who came? “Let’s go take a look somewhere.”
Eugene San shook his hands and went to the entrance of the manor with his granddaughter.
A familiar figure was clutching a heavy bundle.
A bald head that reflects the morning sunlight and a ferocious look.
It was Baek Gyu, the owner of Paedo Gate.
“Uncle Seol-ah brought snacks!”
“Uncle Baekgyu~”
Yoo Seol rushed over and accepted the bundle.
Soon, a bright smile appeared on his face as he examined the contents.
“I stopped by the market and picked up some things.”
“Hi-Hi. After all, uncle is the best~”
Baekgyu patted Yuseol’s head and smiled at Yujinsan.
“I guess he was working in the field with Seol. “I think my younger brother interfered with this.”
“No. “It really came at the right time.”
Yu Jin-san’s expression and tone of voice revealed deep sincerity.
If I had been a little late, I would have had to learn a strange song from my granddaughter.
At that time, Baek-gyu looked around and asked.
“Are there still strange things happening at home?”
“Now everything is resolved and everything is fine. “Let’s sit down and talk about the details.”
Eugene San and Baek Gyu moved to the pavilion in front of their residence.
There was a pond nearby, so the atmosphere was quite nice.
“It seems like a great place to live quietly. “There is a valley next to it and the mountain scenery is also spectacular.”
“If you think about it, it’s no different from my younger brother arranging it. “Thanks to you, I bought it at a good price.”
“If I had known it was here in the first place, I would have stopped it. “I was really surprised when I heard about this place from Im Jeon-se.”
Yu Jin-san said with a faint smile.
“I almost died until yesterday. But it’s okay now that everything has been resolved.”
He told me everything that had happened so far.
Even solving the problem with Man-ho’s help and sealing the devil.
It was when he was talking for a while.
“Uncle~”
Yoo Seol was holding something on the board with both hands.
When I looked closely, I saw that it was tea.
“oh my. “My nephew is all grown up now.”
“Enjoy your meal, uncle.”
Yuseol, who put down fruit and tea here and there, quickly disappeared again.
And Yu Jin-san looked at his granddaughter’s back with a blank face.
“I can’t believe it. “There’s no way Seol could be like this?”
“haha. “Maybe my nephew needs some pocket money.”
“hmm. It would be worth it. “I spent all my money buying a house.”
“Isn’t she pretty though? “Every time I see Seol, I’m really jealous of you.”
Yu Jin-san also smiled and nodded in agreement.
“But what happened to my busy brother? “I didn’t come here just to look at the house.”
Baekgyu lowered his voice and answered.
“Actually, I’m on my way back from meeting Lord Ryeon a little while ago.”
It seemed like there had been a secret meeting with the Apostle Lord Youngyoung.
There was something I had asked her for earlier through Baek Gyu.
It’s probably about that.
It was information about the Murim lord Hwaryeong incident.
