Episode 283
“So something like that happened.”
Dan Woo-hyeon nodded while putting a skewer in his mouth. Dansomi sat on the veranda, shaking her legs and looking at it intently.
Seeing his mouth watering, it seems like he wants to eat.
However, Dan Woo-hyeon deliberately did not pay attention.
Dansomi, who was staring at me from earlier, was so cute that I felt like I wanted to tease her a little more.
As Dan So-mi reached out for the skewer, Dan Woo-hyeon naturally turned his head.
“When it comes to martial arts, the most important thing is how you use it. “You did the right thing because you wrote it for yourself.”
Nothing reached Dansomi’s ears anymore.
I just want to eat the skewer in front of me.
There was no pride on the face of this little child at having used martial arts at will for the first time.
“But it’s amazing. “Is it because you take after me?”
“I like that kind of thing, so give me Somi… please!”
In the end, Dan So-mi, who stuck to Dan Woo-hyeon, reached out and snatched the skewer.
Without paying any attention to the traces of having taken a bite! He bit down.
Dansomi smiled brightly as the taste filled her mouth.
“Is it delicious?”
“yes! Uncle Jang’s cooking is the most delicious in the world.”
“Yeah… I’m glad.”
Dan Woohyun smiled.
When he saw what was going into Dansomi’s mouth, he licked his lips and turned his head somewhere else.
I saw Jang Sam-tae humming and holding a skewer in his hand.
It was like the last skewer left after being handed out to people.
“Samtae.”
“yes?”
Jang Sam-tae hurriedly approached Dan Woo-hyeon at the sudden call.
There was a big smile on my face because the skewers I made for the first time in a while were cooked quite well.
At this rate, it seemed like it could be sold at a higher price than the skewers sold on the streets of Agyang.
“Give it a moment.”
Jang Sam-tae held out the skewer without thinking.
His face was so pure that there was no emotion at all. This is because he doesn’t even think that Dan Woo-hyeon, not anyone else, is stealing the skewers and eating them.
Dan Woo-hyeon, who received the skewer in his hand, quickly took a bite.
“What…what are you doing?!”
“Can’t you see it? “You eat it.”
“No… my geondep show?”
“Isn’t the one who eats first the owner
?”
Jang Sam-tae’s mouth trembled.
Even so, is there a law that allows people to take what they are holding and eat it as they please?
Except for one bite when he first tasted it, he hadn’t even eaten it properly yet.
When I looked away, Dansomi had already eaten everything she had.
Still, as if that wasn’t enough, he was aiming for Dan Woo-hyeon’s skewer.
“Please give it again.”
“…Is that what I was eating?”
“But it’s okay. Somi eats well.”
“No, am I going to eat it?”
“Is it Somi?”
Jang Sam-tae and So-mi glared at each other.
This was quite surprising since they were people who didn’t usually fight. Dan Woo-hyeon, who was caught in the middle, was just watching the scene with a smile.
They are making a fuss among themselves because they don’t even have the slightest intention of giving it to them.
He took another big bite of the skewer and looked to the side.
“…It looks delicious.”
The person who came to Dan Woo-hyeon’s side was none other than Jegal-yeon.
She was covered in dirt, and it felt like dust would fly off her fur.
Dan Woo-hyeon slowly lifted his butt and moved to the side.
He gave me a look telling me not to smell dust while eating.
“I didn’t even want it. “Have you heard that story?”
“What do you mean?”
“It is said that later followers of the Cheondohoe will participate in this martial arts competition.”
” know.”
I had already met Namgoong Sohye. A woman and a man with great spirit were those who particularly stood out.
Perhaps they are the central ones.
“And they say they will be competing as representatives of Geumwangbu.”
Zhuge Yan let out a small sigh and sat down on the veranda. Since registration has already been completed, we are in the process of identifying a list of those participating who need to be on guard.
That kind of thing is easy if you use Haomun.
What Zhuge Yan discovered at that time were the names of the later exponents.
It was somewhat surprising, but considering the relationship between Geumwangbu and Cheondohoe, it was quite possible.
“Everything is as Zhuge Un expected.”
Dan Woo-hyeon smiled with a smile on his face.
Zhuge Un predicted that Cheondohoe and King Jinbu would definitely come forward.
King Jinbu had a relationship with the Zhuge family for generations, so the other eight great families naturally became familiar with him as well.
They will try to use that relationship to spread their wings.
There was nothing wrong with what Zhuge Un said.
“But are those things worth making a fuss about?”
At his question, Zhuge Yan bit his lip.
Of course, I didn’t think it would be difficult.
In fact, the later Jisoos without Namgung So-hye and Shaolin cannot be said to be such great opponents.
But one person is different.
Moonhye Dang.
She is the golden jade leaf of the Sacheondang family and has exceptionally unrivaled skills even among the later exponents.
There were even rumors that she was a perfect match for Namgung So-hye, so she is a woman who should never be taken lightly.
Having to deal with such a woman made me sigh.
“Hehe, isn’t the review index so good? This Samtae won in a hurry! “I will offer my prize money to Lord Jang.”
“Haha, don’t just trust you.”
“Hehehe.”
Jang Sam-tae rubbed his hands and approached Dan-woo Hyeon.
His eyes were full of anticipation, as if there was something he was hoping for.
Dan Woo-hyeon realized this and gently held out a skewer.
“Eat.”
“Thank you, Master Jang!” Although there were only half of the skewers left, Jang Sam-tae bowed his head and accepted the skewers.
Zhuge Yan looked fed up, but it was okay.
For Jang Sam-tae, who is hungry, it is more precious than a centuries-old elixir.
Dan So-mi, who was nearby, pulled Jang Sam-tae by the collar of his clothes and looked up gently.
Jang Sam-tae turned his head in silence and avoided his gaze.
Black shadows covered the sky.
Because of the darkness, I couldn’t even see what was flying, but I was certain that something was moving slowly.
It was somehow strange, moving in the dark.
The shadow moved cautiously towards the person and immediately stretched out its hand and grabbed the passerby’s neck, as if snatching prey.
Wow-!
“Gagging!”
As I broke my neck, not even a moan could come out.
When the person who had been shaking for a while became limp, the shadow raised its hand on the danjeon with a satisfied expression.
I could feel the energy slowly dissipating from the dead person’s body.
As he expanded his inhalation qigong as if to intercept the scattered energy, more internal energy than expected began to gradually accumulate in his body.
“Feel so good.”
His eyes sparkled and he smiled. He carried the body, which was as dried as a tooth, up high on the roof. He took a small bottle out of his pocket and sprinkled a drop or two of the contents on the corpse, leaving behind a musty smell and disappearing without even leaving behind any bones.
“That guy has some business to do in a place like this… Tsk.”
Clicking his tongue, he looked around and muttered.
Although it was late at night, there was plenty of prey.
Did you say that a martial arts competition would be held? Thanks to this, things to eat have increased significantly.
Nevertheless, the man was quite dissatisfied.
“The reason you sent me here isn’t just to tell me to hunt…” It’s
because of the command that I don’t understand.
If it weren’t for abstinence from alcohol, I would have caught that guy and killed him right away, but since that guy’s abstinence was strangling my soul, I had no choice but to follow him.
Is it okay to kill someone?
Or is it okay to throw this place into chaos?
The man thought for a while and then frowned.
“Damn it, Manhuryang… It really can’t be just simple surveillance…”
The man jumped away.
In order to understand the intention, I once again began to search the entire business.
“People are disappearing?”
Hong Won-chang, who hurriedly visited Sega early in the morning, nodded, sweating profusely. More than a dozen people have gone missing in the past two days alone.
It’s extremely frustrating because you can’t even find any traces of it.
Even the police were released to search the area, but it was impossible to find out where they had gone or what had happened to them.
“What does that mean? “It didn’t suddenly rise up into the sky, nor did it fall to the ground, but it disappeared and has never been traced?”
Even Namgungcheon asked with a strange expression.
When people move, they leave traces. So, if we attach a few people who are good at tracking, we will be able to find the missing people.
Nevertheless, not being able to find it at all was the same as saying that its existence itself had disappeared.
Is such a thing really possible?
“It is said that the missing people were among the ronin who had quite advanced martial arts skills. That makes it even more… strange.”
Hong Won-chang heard the story told by the disappeared man’s colleague.
It is said that while they were walking down the street together after drinking, they disappeared with a brief sound.
He said he quickly chased after him, but only saw a black shadow.
The shadow was so fast and agile that it disappeared into the distance in an instant and could never be traced.
“It’s a black shadow…”
Namgungcheon glanced at Sadohak. The Demonic Cult would know better about that kind of martial arts, so I was wondering if there was anything they knew.
But Sadohak shook his head.
There were more than one silver form technique to create a black shadow, and it was not at all easy to use silver form techniques to subdue a person, deploy a light attack, and quickly disappear.
If there was someone who freely used those two martial arts, I would have remembered their name, but I couldn’t think of anyone in particular.
At that time, Jang Sam-tae, who had been listening quietly, looked at Dan Woo-hyeon and Hong Won-chang as if he remembered something.
Is it because of that expression?
Everyone’s eyes naturally turned to Jang Sam-tae.
“If you know anything, tell me!”
Hong Won-chang urged Jang Sam-tae. Since it was an urgent matter, there was nothing better than any clues that could be obtained.
Jang Sam-tae glanced at Dan Woo-hyeon.
“Tell me.”
After a while, Dan Woo-hyeon gave permission.
Jang Sam-tae opened his mouth with a solemn expression.
“Aren’t shadows originally black?” Everyone around was speechless.
I just looked at Jang Sam-tae with an empty expression.
Soon, Dan Woo-hyeon’s hand moved lightly.
“Kwaaaak!”
The sound of the song echoed endlessly.
