Episode 446:
Looking at the wealth of Hundred Thousand Great Mountains makes me dizzy.
It wasn’t just a matter of money; there were always things that couldn’t be obtained with money.
‘Well… the blood poison liquor that cures any poison is amazing. If it’s a demonic religion, wouldn’t it have an elixir of immortality?’
They will be able to do that.
“It’s because you don’t pay taxes. “You pathetic bastards.”
“hmm?”
Yeo Ha-ryun’s eyes widened at his brother’s unexpected words.
“You’ve been evading taxes for generations! So that’s how much you earn.”
“That’s funny. “Our school is the world, so why on earth should we give money to the imperial family?”
This is why you are traitors.
Well, the emperor is a human being and the cult leader is a god, so the idea of a god paying taxes to humans would be absurd to the demonic religion.
Still, sincere taxpayers are heartbroken when they see the wealth accumulated through tax evasion.
“Hey, that’s enough. If you become a Cheonma, you too will have to pay taxes! “Give me, give me!”
“This guy doesn’t like it even when he receives gifts….”
“No, thank you. Let’s pay taxes too. This is not it. “No!”
Baekrin Uigak Sogakju waved his arms wildly.
‘Ugh, it’s so fucking unfair. This is why cults don’t help. In the first place, Heavenly Demon is a demon, so there is no way he can live a good life!’
So Ha-Ryun Yeo had to endure the grumbling of her older brother, whom she had not seen in a long time.
I couldn’t understand why he grumbled after receiving the gift, but I was glad that my brother seemed to be healthier than I had worried about.
* * *
Yeo Ha-ryun said he had to go on a mission again.
Jin Cheon-hee told Yeo Ha-ryun, who was leaving, about Wonwon-gun.
Even that he tried to make contact.
Yeo Ha-ryun left a heartfelt message of gratitude and that he was safe.
“I hope my brother and I can survive until the end.”
“As long as the front doesn’t push any further, I’ll be fine. Instead, worry about yourself first.”
Yeo Ha-ryun nodded, put on his mask again and left the tent.
Jeopuk –
one step.
However, the sound of the second step was not heard at all.
There is no sense of Yeo Ha-ryun’s popularity or unique personality at all.
Hwanggu said, ‘Kkiing?’ He tilted his head diagonally.
It seemed impossible for even the spirits to track Yeo Ha-ryun.
‘You are truly heading towards the realm of the Heavenly Demon.’
It was faster than expected. However, it is a good story that the younger brother has become stronger.
After a brief farewell, I was sipping on a decoction of Americano again, and this time, Cheon-woo came in.
“Hyung, are you okay?”
At those words, Jin Cheonhee’s expression darkened.
“Are you really okay?”
That was because Cheon-woo’s complexion had become seriously white.
“Let’s get a Mac.”
I was worried when I saw his pale complexion. Cheonwoo shook his head.
“It’s okay if you’re okay. “I’ll go and see.”
Isn’t that what he meant to say and then leave?
Jin Cheon-hee caught Cheon-woo like that.
“Come and eat this first.”
Is it a Korean trait to eat something and watch it when you’re worried?
Jin Cheon-hee took out a skein of honey from the corner.
Cheonwoo was dumbfounded and muttered.
“Why is it that there is endless food for you?”
“You have to eat to gain strength. men and horses.”
Even in the Shaman sect, elders as old as my grandfather would always carry food in their arms. Is it the same?
Even though Jang Mun-in was scolding him to stop feeding him, he secretly fed the young shaman disciples and was very happy about it.
He was angry that I was giving it to him because he was not his direct line of responsibility.
I guess that’s the grandson. You don’t have to take responsibility, you just have to be cute.
However, I sometimes felt the same way about older people from my younger brother.
“Oguogu eating well. “The honey skein keeps coming in, right?”
“Did you make this?”
“huh. You can make it quickly just by practicing. High calorie content. High sugar content. “Ah, it’s also called a dragon beard, but for me it just sticks to my mouth like a skein of honey.”
The thread-thin taffy pods melted on the tongue, and the peanut powder, walnuts, and pine nuts inside were clearly chewy on the tongue.
“Would you like to eat some dried persimmon slices? “Your brother made it?”
Before Cheonwoo can answer, he takes it out from somewhere and gives it to him.
Then, the sight of him sucking and staring at the bamboo tube stuck in the bamboo tube was truly like a madman.
‘My brother is just different from others.’
Why?
As something starts to enter my stomach, I feel like my heart naturally relaxes.
Suddenly, I felt eyes on me, so I raised my head and saw my brother looking at me. I don’t know since when, but it seems like he kept watching Cheonwoo eat.
He smiled brightly, probably because he was embarrassed that our eyes met.
“Your expression has finally improved.”
“is it so?”
“huh. There was something alive in the eyes. “Then you come to Simma.”
“….”
Cheonwoo couldn’t answer.
To Cheon-woo, Jin Cheon-hee said something different instead of saying, ‘Why are you afraid of seeing blood even though you are a warrior?’
“War is hard, isn’t it?”
That’s all.
“…yes.”
No matter how great a assassin he is or how strong his opponent is, he can easily open the door to his heart.
This brother. Do you know that you have that power?
Cheonwoo continued.
“After I ripped off its ear and killed it, a face younger than mine rolled out of the helmet.”
“Are you tired.”
“yes. It’s a different feeling from killing an unmanned person. this.”
“It’s different from life and death. “If it’s the same, it’s not war.”
Jin Cheonhee nodded.
“If you’re tired, run away.”
“yes?”
“If you’re like X, desert. What do you think? “It looks like he’s going to die of a heart attack.”
He was a brother who calmly said crazy things even today, not ashamed of his nickname Byeokgwang-ui.
“I’ll take care of the cleanup, so get out of there.” are you okay.”
“Aren’t you embarrassed when your brother does that?”
“Why are you embarrassed? Wow, my little brother has great determination. I’ll give you a thumbs up.”
He giggles while saying that.
Jin Cheon-hee said while stroking Cheon-woo’s big head.
“are you okay. are you okay. Just coming back alive is amazing. And you saved King Zhou’s life too, right? I did everything I had to do. You worked hard enough for that. “I fought as hard as I could.”
If you’re having a hard time, desert.
On this battlefield.
It was the craziest thing Cheonwoo had ever heard.
But I couldn’t deny that it was also what I wanted to hear the most.
“I’m glad you’re my older brother.”
“So, who is your brother?”
* * *
When Sima Xuan came to visit, Tianyu was already preparing to leave.
‘Oh, that kid’s expression has improved a bit.’
Earlier, he was acting like he had all the worries of the world on his shoulders, but now his expression has brightened.
Plus, when I look at his hands, I see that this guy is eating something.
Sima Hyeon felt sick to his stomach for some reason.
‘You pretended to be weak to your brother again.’
My brother is not good at looking after himself, but he is good at looking after others.
If I were to draw a picture of a spiritual leader, it would be someone like this.
A giant tree-like entity that creates shade for everyone.
Although it endures the scorching sun and storms alone, it still gives its shelter to the insects and ivy that live beneath it so that it can survive.
It serves as a nest for squirrels and birds, and in the fall it bears fruit and provides food to animals.
Since he was that kind of person, it was natural for someone around him to constantly be confused.
In particular, it would be natural for him to feel attached to Cheon-woo, as he was the one whom his older brother personally named and saved.
“Is Hyeon here?”
“Ugh~ Hyun is here~ Gaga.”
“….”
Cheonwoo cursed with cold eyes.
As expected, Sima Hyeon is upset that he is sitting there pretending to be weak in front of his brother after pushing in like a bull and slaughtering people. so.
“Brother Chunwoo. Shaman Gwonje calls.”
“okay?”
Jin Cheon-hee said.
“Go ahead. I’ll give you a few more dried persimmon slices. “Eat as you go.”
As he said that, he took out a small colander from somewhere and handed it to me.
It’s just a bed, so I don’t know why there’s so much stuff in it.
After Tianyu left, Sima Hyeon spoke.
“Gaga~ I have a mouth too.”
“You should stop doing that… No. “Eat first.”
While saying that, he takes out dried persimmon slices and gives them to Sima Hyeon.
There was something white stuck in the center of the round piece of dried persimmon. Jin Cheon-hee said.
“Cheese… no… I put dried fish in it. “This is delicious.”
It looks like they made a strange dish again.
Now that I think about it, most of my brother’s dishes are ones that don’t care about the cost of ingredients.
Where will Baeklin’s incinerator go?
Since he has a large wallet, he does not skimp on food ingredients.
‘You call geornak (乾酪) cheese. ‘My brother.’
This is what nomads mainly eat, but it is a bit different from the way nomads eat.
I tried it myself, but would you say it feels like your brother processed it to be easier to eat?
‘I don’t know where this cooking knowledge came from. Hmm~’
Creation ultimately comes from basic knowledge.
A person who has tried three dishes in his or her life and a person who has tried three hundred dishes have different creative capabilities.
Baeklin Uigak mainly serves medicinal dishes, so you must have tried a lot of their cuisine.
However, my brother’s specialty is this kind of weird eating.
‘Well, it doesn’t matter anyway.’
This guy is strange, not even for a day or two. It is meaningless to look at the origin now.
After Cheon-yu left, Sima-hyeon enjoyed the snacks his brother gave him, including dried persimmon slices and honey skeins.
Suddenly, I felt eyes on me, so I raised my head and saw Jin Cheonhee staring at me with blue eyes.
“Why bro?”
“No, I think you’re okay though.”
“Ah~”
Seeing that Chunwoo was tired, he seemed to be worried that he would be too.
“There’s nothing we can do about my third brother since he’s a member of a political faction. Of course, it wasn’t easy for him as an orphan, but it’s different to live in the back alleys.”
“Is there a difference?”
“That’s right~ First of all, he didn’t have anyone to take responsibility for, and he didn’t have to hold on to anyone’s leg for today’s food. “It was really… difficult back then.”
I still think back to my time in the orchestra.
At that time, Master Seok passed away after teaching him the Cheonbyeongeommangong technique, and he had to take charge of his younger siblings.
‘Grandpa taught me things like that. ‘I’d rather just leave some silver.’
In the end, he became unable to leave Haomun due to the Heavenly Transformation Sword Mangong, and it was the culprit of a huge twist in his life.
At that time, they didn’t tell me anything about the real story, so I just thought he was a common handyman in Sapa.
Since Grandmaster Seok left without leaving a single penny, I had to do whatever I could to fill my hungry stomach.
“Hye-ah is getting sick every day, and I am a child with nothing. “The streets are ugly, there’s no money to show up to the doctor, and there’s no one to trust.”
Sima Hyeon continued as if he was humming a song.
A robber took away the hard-earned money.
Sima Xuan asked to return it, but he did not listen. So at first I held my feet and hung on like a dog.
It would be natural to listen to a child when he asks for something like that, but the back alleys of Hangzhou are not always easy.
Instead, he was beaten.
Sima Hyun, who was being beaten in the back alley, eventually tore the tendon in his ankle by applying too much force to the hand he was holding.
The guy went crazy as if it was unfair that he had been bullied by a child.
That was the first time I killed someone.
When I think about it now, I wonder if my obsession with money from that time still lingered and that’s why I went to the Geumhyeolbang.
And the memory of killing someone back then remained so strong that I kept wanting to kill them.
Still, I threw away the skin on his face.
This is because at the time, we did not know how to store facial leather.
