Heavenly Inquisition Sword Chapter 217

Episode 217. Is it because you can’t eat?

Han Chae-yeon, who discovered Geumgangjeo late, also showed interest.

“What is it? I think I’ve seen it somewhere. Where did I see something like that?”

“sister. He said he picked it up in Jowonchon in the morning. Even old Sim doesn’t know the name.”

According to Ha So-baek’s explanation, Geumgangjeo was picked up in the morning in Jowonchon.

Heartache didn’t bother trying to explain it.

It was obvious that he would say that he had a dream like the village chief.

Just in time, the Yak Dae-mong attendant, who finished the bargain, came to the seat of Cheol-san Lee and his party.

He glanced at the waist of his heartache and said.

“The thing you have is called ‘Geumgangjeo’.”

“Geumgangjeo?”

Shimtong, who had never even been near a temple, was blinded by the unfamiliar name.

“Yes, it is said that it was the weapon used by Indra to defeat Asura. Doesn’t the thing you have looks like the tip of a spear? A single branch like that is called Dokgojeo. If it is divided into nine parts, it is called Gugojeo.”

“You defeated Asura with just this?”

“haha! According to Buddhist mythology, yes. It is said that Vajra is strong and can cut and pierce anything. By the way, did you learn it in Jowonchon?”

“why? Is there any problem?”

“no. I’ve never seen a temple near Jowonchon. It looks like a very old item. If you plan to dispose of it in the future, please let me know.”

Wouldn’t it be better if it was in a temple?

There was no reason for ordinary people to use such a large geumgangjeo.

Vajrapani, which people carry around like a talisman, was much smaller than that.

“I will.”

At the suggestion of Yak Daemong, the expression of heart pain suddenly softened.

It’s understandable because the class has risen from a burdensome burden to something that could be money.

Even if I sell it when I sell it, I plan to show it to Yeonjeokha once.

When I thought of him who would be embarrassed to hear about his own amazing experiences, I laughed out loud.

Ha Nam.

Jeongju.

Seokjang Village.

around lunchtime.

A young man entered the village entrance.

He is a married couple who has come to meet the family of his maternal uncle who is living here.

I wandered for two days, but the moment I entered the village, the fatigue disappeared.

The village at the foot of Bangsan seemed to be a little less than fifty households.

Is it because of the warm midday sun?

There were quite a lot of people walking on the street.

Among them, he approached the man with the most generous face.

“I’m going to ask you something.”

For a moment, the middle-aged man’s gaze turned to the sword hanging from the waist of his younger brother.

“Please say yes.”

Thinking that the opponent was a Murim, he raised his voice.

“I’m looking for a house for a person named Lee Woo-seok. Do you know where it is?”

“ah! This is the house at the entrance to Bangsan over there. It’s a good location to clear a mountain or sell firewood. But what happened to Mr. Lee’s house?”

Perhaps because it was a small town, the man asked more questions than necessary.

However, I am not a person who is sensitive enough to etiquette to notice that he is dating.

“Ah, I came to see you because I thought you were a relative.”

The middle-aged man, Seok Woo-dae, tilted his head.

If it’s a relative, it’s a relative, but since it seems like a relative, I don’t know what you’re talking about.

“That’s right. Relatives, on the father’s side? Or on your mother’s side?”

“Mother’s side. By the way, is this village chief? What are you asking about?”

Seok Woo-dae blushed at Yeon Jeok-ha’s point.

“Oh no. It’s been a long time since I’ve just seen a foreigner. Then work.”

Seok Woo-dae hurriedly spoke and left in a hurry.

“Great. He is a funny man.”

It’s impressive to see them go without looking back at what they’re so busy with.

The middle-aged man with whom he had a relationship was completely out of sight and moved to Bangsan only afterward.

The house the middle-aged man said was the closest to Bangsan.

That means being far away from where people live.

Right below the foot of the mountain, a house with a slightly better shape than a hut stood there.

The clumsy wooden fence was poorly maintained and had holes in places, and the gate was twisted and rattled lightly with every wind.

He knew that his mother’s financial situation was not good enough to sell his mother, but it was worse than he thought.

The serial killer, who had been clicking his tongue inside, pushed the gate and went inside.

“Are you there?”

When I shouted in the yard, I opened the door and a little girl rushed out.

Are you six years old now?

The skinny girl looked around and asked with a frightened face.

“who are you?”

“me? person passing by. Aren’t your parents at home?”

“Did you go to the mountain to get some wood?”

After hearing that, I saw a pile of wood piled up on one side of the yard.

“You bring trees and sell them? Or did you go pick it up to write?”

“I write and sell. Why do you ask?”

Lee Chae was young in Yeonjeokha’s eyes.

Looking at the question, it seemed that the girl was smarter than I thought.

I sat comfortably with my hips hanging on the floor that only imitated a little less than one inch (about 30 cm) in height.

“When are your parents coming?”

“He will be back soon. You can’t just sit anywhere like that.”

“I’m fine, don’t worry about it.”

“no. Why are you sitting at someone else’s house like that? I heard you were passing by?”

Only then did Yeonjeokha look at the girl with new eyes.

He seemed to be speaking quite well for such a young person.

“kid. Are you a kid that speaks well? How old are you?”

“I am twelve years old.”

“…”

I looked at the face of the surprised child who was in love.

No matter how you look at it, you look six or seven years old, but it’s just amazing that you’re twelve.

“Wow. Are you very young?”

“Is it because I can’t eat?”

Lee Si-hwa, a girl, shot at him with a poisoned face.

If the stranger hadn’t had a knife around his waist, he would have cursed and kicked him out.

It’s just a pity that I can’t do that because I’m afraid of the knife.

“no. while you If you don’t eat, you’ll only get thinner, but you look young.”

“But why aren’t you going? Did you come to see your sister’s face too?”

“sister? Did you have a sister?”

“Even if you look at it, you’re here to see your sister, but pretending you’re not. My sister is getting married soon, so stop going back.”

“How old is your sister, are you getting married?”

“Sixteen.”

“Why do you marry so quickly?”

“Yes, of course…”

Lee Si-hwa, who had been responding bluntly, was speechless.

I couldn’t bear to say that I was going to be sold because the house was poor.

“Sure what? Did you have an accident when you were young?”

“Stop talking nonsense! My sister is not like that!”

“Or are you marrying him quickly so that the two of you can live happily ever after because you love him so much?”

“No!”

“what? You didn’t have an accident, and you didn’t love each other, so why are you sending them away so quickly?”

“You don’t have to know, Uncle! Go quickly!”

Slightly excited, Lee Si-hwa forgot the knife hanging from his opponent’s waist and got angry.

“Hey, I’m not an uncle, am I?”

“Then what is it?”

“Your father’s name is Wooseok Lee, right?”

“Right?”

“Then brother. cousin brother.”

“We are away from home and we have no relatives, so where are you lying?”

“There is only one on the parent’s side. That’s me.”

“All of them are dead, but where does one come from?”

“I have a place to go. what is your name?”

“Ishihwa. It seems like a lie…”

Even so, Lee Si-hwa glanced at Yeonjeok-ha with slightly expectant eyes.

She hoped that the well-dressed young man was her real cousin.

Then you don’t have to get married like your older sister is sold.

“My name is Yeonjeokha. From now on, call me Jeokha oppa.”

“Isn’t that a real lie?”

Young Lee Si-hwa’s eyes sparkled as Yeon Jeok-ha shamelessly left.

She couldn’t hide her feelings because she was young.

As the cold wind blew, Lee Si-hwa, who was standing in front of the door, shivered.

Unable to see, Yeonjeokha said a word.

“If it’s cold, go inside. I can wait here.”

“How do you leave guests outside?”

Shihwa Lee shook his head.

I can’t completely trust him, so I’m not going to let him into the room.

But going in alone seems kind of sleazy.

Hesitating, she continued the conversation at the door.

“Echwi!”

Sihwa Lee, who was shivering in the cold alone, ended up sneezing.

It was only then that he realized that she had been forcibly enduring the cold.

I don’t know how cold it is if I don’t talk to my body.

“Oops! Hey, do you look cold? I can’t.”

He got up from his seat and dragged the firewood piled up in the corner to the middle of the yard.

“uh? Uncle, what are you trying to do? You can’t touch it. It’s something Daddy’s been collecting to sell.”

“What are you selling? There are only twigs.”

The firewood piled up in the yard under the standard of annual loading was just twigs.

He squatted in front of the firewood and struck the flint.

However, no matter how hard he tried, the fire was not easily created.

It was worse because I was impatient thinking that my younger cousin was watching from behind.

At times like this, I miss the heartache that I used to use like limbs.

He let out a rough breath through his nostrils, but he couldn’t stand it and jumped to his feet.

“shit! I will not! can not!”

Lee Si-hwa, who was watching with a nervous heart, burst into laughter.

He threw the flint he was holding wildly over the wall.

After thinking about something for a moment, he squatted down again in front of the pile of wood.

Soon after, a twig was caught in his hand.

fall out. Quick.

The tree twisted and made a strange sound.

Then, it was engulfed in flames with the sound of ‘hurry’.

It lit a fire by extinguishing Samadhi.

“yes!”

With a cheerful sound, he pushed the burning branch into the pile of wood.

A shrill scream flowed from Lee Si-hwa’s mouth, who was watching with confidence.

“Ah! No way! It’s what Daddy put together to sell!”

“are you okay. Come on. My brother will prepare a better tree.”

When Yeon Jeok-ha spoke kindly, Lee Si-hwa hesitated and came down from the floor.

Since it was spilled water, he decided to adapt.

From then on, the two began squatting in the yard to warm themselves by the fire.

Little Lee Si-hwa believed in the word ‘I will prepare a better tree’ and scratched all the trees that were rolling around the yard.

It was like a person with a resentment for not being able to light a fire to his heart’s content.

The flames grew so large that they could be seen from afar.

Someone thought Lee Woo-seok’s house was on fire and rushed to see it.

While I was away, I took out beef jerky from the traveling bag and roasted it over a fire.

It was when Yeon Jeok-ha and Lee Si-hwa shared a piece of beef jerky and flirted with each other.

Someone broke through the door and shouted.

“Hey! What are you doing at someone else’s house! And Sihwa! Why are you even doing that!”

Shihwa Lee shrugged her shoulders with a surprised face.

“sister. Well… don’t eat like Mr. Pig, but talk to me.”

Yeonjeokha, who had been mumbling with jerky in his mouth, slowly got up and turned around.

A pretty girl, probably about sixteen by now, was standing with her eyes wide open.
