Chapter 85
Episode 85. Swordsman Lim Ji-ryeong,
who was standing in a daze with a surprised face, soon came to her senses and spoke to her son.
“Go out and find Hee-yeon and bring her back. And... come inside.”
As he walked out of the house, Feng Yuni glanced back.
Poongyeoncho carefully took off her shoes on the stone and entered the room.
Tak Go-myeong did not follow his brother-in-law and sat on the veranda without notice.
Poong Yeon-cho, who sat in front of Lim Ji-ryeong, bowed her head.
“sorry. I think it’s cheap no matter what you say. Still, if I had to make an excuse...”
“I know. That there was no other way. Even after that, the families of those who had died for a long time came to visit and did things. If you were there, you would have been beaten to death or taken by the government office.”
Poongyeoncho scratched its head.
There are many people who have died from eating nonsense, so if they were taken to the government office, they would have died.
“Still, did you manage to find me?”
“I went to the house where I used to live and heard from a neighbor who remembered me. He went into the house of Jang Moon-ho, a draper merchant, five years ago.”
Lim Ji-ryeong stared at the Poongyeoncho.
“It happened. But you are better than before.”
“uh? okay? You look better than when you lived with me.”
After talking, Poongyeoncho thought, ‘Oops’.
You look better than when you lived with me! What kind of idiotic sound is that?
Poongyeoncho hurriedly continued.
“I came here to see if you were doing well. There is no other meaning, so don’t be burdened. I will never resent you because I abandoned you and ran away.”
“What do you resent?”
“Even if you became Mr. Jang’s concubine, I do not resent you. It must have been difficult to raise two children alone. I thought I might have starved to death.”
I saw many corpses who died of starvation while wandering begging.
It was difficult to be sure what would have happened if he hadn’t climbed the mountain himself. You don’t have to say anything to know what the situation was like for the two children and the wife left behind.
“What are you talking about? I made a living by helping with kitchen work and sewing for hire. Then, by chance, I met an older sister who grew up in a village. At her sister’s recommendation, I came to live with her while helping with the clothes store.”
“Then you didn’t reapply?”
“yes.”
Lim Ji-ryeong answered firmly.
Shim Ji-yeon, the wife of Jang Moon-ho, has no children. Maybe that’s why I often said, ‘Let’s live together for the rest of our lives’. He also knows that Jang Moon-ho has a crush on him.
Nevertheless, the fact that I did not become a concubine was because I was not very reluctant. To be honest, I didn’t have time to feel lonely because I was so busy raising my two children.
In an instant, a sigh of relief escaped Poongyeoncho’s mouth.
Seeing him like that, Lim Ji-ryeong asked.
“Did you come to see how the abandoned family live?”
“That can’t be. If you allow me, I want to be a husband and father again. I’m confident I’ll do really well this time. I will never disappoint you again.”
At that moment, the voice of the wind was heard from outside.
“My mother, Hee-yeon, brought them.”
“Come in, both of you.”
Entering the room, Poong Woon-bi and Poong Hee-yeon glanced at the Poong-yeon weed.
The owner of the house, Jang Moon-ho, had never entered the room, but he was surprised to see a strange man sitting there.
“Greetings. He is your father.”
“....”
Poongwunbi and Poonghuiyeon, who were looking at the Poongyeoncho with surprised faces, bowed in an eonggeojuchum.
***
That evening.
Sahapwon square (the room in the center of the front).
Two men sat across from each other with a table in the middle.
Moon-ho Jang, the owner of the house and the owner of a linen store, and Yeon-cho Poong, an uninvited guest.
Jang Mun-ho, who was two years older than Poong Yeon-cho, led the conversation.
***
The next day, Poong Yeon-cho and Tak Go-myeong went around looking at the house.
Originally, I was going to go with Lim Ji-ryeong, but she refused, saying that she had a lot of backlogs.
Poong Yeon-cho and Tak Go-myeong went to find a place as far away from Jang Mun-ho’s house as possible. Then, around sundown, I was lucky enough to find a suitable house.
It was a small Danjin Sahabwon with only one garden in the center of the house, but Pungyeoncho was satisfied. Compared to the house in his hometown where he lived, this new house was like a palace.
The day after purchasing the house, Poong Yeon-cho took her family and left Moon-ho Jang’s house.
Lim Ji-ryeong and the children liked it quite a bit, probably because they had a decent house of their own after living in someone else’s house.
Mr. and Mrs. Poong Yeon-cho decided to use the innermost room, and the children were given the west room and the statue room on the left and right of the garden. Then, Tak Go-myeong entered the Dojwabang next to the gate where Im Ji-ryeong and the children lived before.
Three days after that, Moonho Jang arranged a meeting with the Ark above the Dead Sea as promised.
Sang Jae-yong, the ark of the Dead Sea, hired Poongyeoncho and Takgomyeong on the spot and sent them to the giru (妓樓) he owned called Yonghuiru. In this way, Poongyeoncho and Takgomyung took their place in the opening.
***
Huguangseong Wudang Mountain.
I climbed Wudang Mountain alone with a serial enemy.
Gucheonnodo, who followed her like a shadow, left her heartache in the village under the mountain. I did it because it was difficult for any of the Taoists to recognize him.
Yeon Jeok-ha, who was diligently climbing the mountain path, slowed down.
About fifty paces ahead, I saw a towering mountain gate.
After a while, when I arrived at the mountain gate, two guru who appeared to be in their twenties appeared.
“Young brother, why are you climbing the mountain?”
The respectful words of the guru gave him a respectful heart, and he replied politely.
“I came to see the Merchant of Heaven and Earth.”
Guru Hyeonwol secretly scanned the opponent.
The Merchant of Heaven and Earth is the death penalty for his teacher, so it becomes four hundred for himself. Sabaek did not have any outside activities, so there were no customers. A boy looking for a bag like that?
“Do you have a pact with Sabaek-nim?”
“yes. I told you to come visit me whenever you have time.”
Hyeonwol narrowed his eyes.
The merchant of heaven and earth is like a crane in the cloud that you can barely meet even if you are a master. I couldn’t believe that someone like that asked me to come anytime.
But looking at the boy’s expression, it doesn’t seem like he’s lying.
In the end, Hyeonwol decided to check with the Merchant of Heaven and Earth himself.
“Please wait here for a moment. I will tell Sabaek that a guest has arrived. By the way, can I tell you who you are?”
“You would know if I told you that Yeonjeokha had come. Can I go up with you?”
“Ah, because of the recent bloodbath, general visitors are not being accepted. Only guests who have an appointment or are invited can climb the mountain.”
“A famous school?”
“yes.”
Hyeonwol did not deny it.
It is because there is no one in Moorim who does not know the hostile relationship between Chilpaimun and Yumyeonggyo.
Hyeon-wol nodded to Hyeon-song, who was with him, and went up the mountain.
The couple, who were standing at a distance, inadvertently looked at the large altar made of stones.
Then, as if he had been waiting, Hyunsong opened his mouth.
“That altar is the famous Haegeomji. There is a voice that says, ‘Anyone who has not unleashed a sword on the sea sword should not go anywhere and say he is a swordsman.’”
“What is sea dagger?”
“omg! Didn’t you know the shaman’s sea index? Everyone who climbs Wudang Mountain must unleash his sword at that altar. Despite such restrictions, many swordsmen visit shamans for non-swords.”
“ah!”
Yeonjeokha looked at Haegeomji with new eyes.
To leave the sword and go up? It is indeed a strange and surprising rule.
His hand touched the sword at his waist.
I came to listen to the advice of the Merchant of Heaven and Earth anyway, so it didn’t matter if I left my sword.
At that time, someone ran down the mountain like the wind.
He was a merchant of heaven and earth.
