24 times. The inflection point of life
It took the two women three full days to learn the Japanese law of the nine thousand years. It is extremely fast for those who have just entered martial arts.
In the midst of a relationship with my friend, I also taught ‘Hyeonnyeo Advent’, a Japanese version of ‘Gucheongugum’. However, an unexpected problem arose. No matter how detailed he explained it, the women couldn’t get used to it.
Belatedly, he realized that initiation into the Gucheongu Sword is possible only when he masters the Gucheonsaebeop.
In the end, it ended at the line of passing on the Japanese law of the nine thousand years to the two women who are in a relationship. Waryongjang was also worried, but he did not want to teach the thieves the fairy’s martial arts.
Han Chae-yeon and Ha So-baek, unaware of such inner circumstances, were aware of the ‘white porcelain gugyeol’, anti-magic method, and one herbivore.

It’s the month of May when the flowers bloom.
In the meantime, the livelihood of Obong Sanchae has become more abundant. This is because the number of merchants coming and going to Obongsan is increasing.
There is a reason why the number of merchants has increased even though green wild vegetables have entered Obongsan Mountain.
Other green robbers not only robbed them of their wealth, but also took away their lives as a pastime.
Compared to them, who were like evil spirits, Obong Sanchae was a bodhisattva. For the merchants—regardless of how heavy or small they were—we took only one hermit.
Merchants in southern Henam Province wanted to go through Obong Mountain safely and cheaply.
Of course, Suju’s Mansu Sangbang was an exception.
***
Suju Mansu Sangbang.
The Merchant of Heaven and Earth did not do anything for seven days after arriving at Mansu Sangbang. This is because Sang Mu-cheon, a swordsman with a strong wind, strongly recommended that he stop reading first.
The ark of the upper direction, Gwak Ja-jai, served him very much, but did not mention the subjugation of Mount Obong. This is the reason he believed that ‘the subjugation is now over’ on the day he met the Merchant of Heaven and Earth.
On the eighth day, the fifth of May.
Early in the morning, the merchant of heaven and earth, who was reading fortune-telling, said, “It is auspicious,” and left the room.
After a while, people and horses poured out through the front gate of Mansu Sangbang. Finally, the merchants of heaven and earth and seventy warriors from the upper direction set out to subdue them.
The warriors of Mansu Sangbang put a lot of strength on their necks and walked as if they were disciples of the shaman faction. If it’s good, it’s majestic.
The movement of Mansu Sangbang was widely spread through the mouths of eyewitnesses.
“Sangbang Mansu started subjugating Obong Sanchae!”
“The patriarch, the fierce swordsman Sangmu-cheon, has brought his teacher, the Merchant of Heaven and Earth!”
***
Rumors reached Obongsanchae in one day.
Thieves gathered one by one at the recently completed Sanghwagak. They only looked at each other with dying faces like cattle brought to a slaughterhouse.
Chaeju Poongyeoncho, who was sitting in the high seat, opened her mouth.
“Brothers, Mansu Sangbang is coming to attack us. It is said that these damn bastards even attracted non-partisan traders. What would you like me to do?”
In front of the huge nickname of merchant of heaven and earth, the thieves sighed silently.
Heo Imdal, the fourth, spoke cautiously.
“Big brother, the guys from upstairs will arrive tomorrow, so why don’t we jump somewhere else?”
However, Poongyeoncho did not answer Katabuta.
Sanghwagak fell into a heavy silence.
Poongyeoncho, who was scratching her head, suddenly turned to the old military sword, Simyangak.
Like the last time the South Seas invaded, is there a trick for him?
“If there is a good number for Shim Noje, please let me know.”
As soon as the words ran out, Shen Yang-gak sneered.
“joy! Do you think you can deal with an old monster like the Merchant of Heaven and Earth through a fluke or trick? A jawless sound.”
Angry fan owner Tak Go-myeong shot at him.
“So what are you going to do?”
“Are you asking because you really don’t know? Obong Sanchae should be seen as over.”
Shen Yang-gak, who thought that he had already reached his destination, did not hide the words inside.
The bandits murmured when I said that the Madu, the size of Shenyanggak, was over.
“Now what?”
“Somehow I have to jump out.”
“Where?”
“What do you know? go anywhere.”
The buzzing sound grew louder and louder as time went on. Some even gathered people to run away together. Poongyeoncho shouted as the atmosphere became chaotic.
“ruler! ruler! quiet! quiet!”
Only then did the bandits shut their mouths one by one.
In any case, Poongyeoncho was still a rice cooker, so he had to follow his instructions.
“What do you think, Yeon-ah?”
The eyes of the thieves were all focused on Yeonjeokha.
They intended to be with Yeonjeokha, who was going somewhere. As long as you have a sister-in-law, there won’t be much difficulty even if you go somewhere else.
“I don’t know.”
There is no trick for Yeon Jeok-ha, who is young and has little experience in the world.
Still, when they heard such a pathetic sound, a sigh flowed from the thieves’ mouths.
By the time the disappointed thieves start to hum again.
Baek-gyo, who had been patiently waiting for the right time, spread out his Seopseon and said.
“Heheu Poong Chaeju. Let’s not waste time with obvious answers in front of us. Hurry up and move the wild vegetables to another place or split them, let’s choose between them right here.”
Takgomyeong replied in a furious voice.
“We moved to another place, but if the merchant of heaven and earth comes to visit us again, what will we do then?”
“omg! A day or two of banditry? ask that We have to move to another place.”
“No fuck! So, you want to keep wandering around avoiding the Merchant of Heaven and Earth? Do other green wild vegetables do the same?”
When Takgomyeong protested harshly, even cursing at him, murderousness lingered in Baegyo’s eyes. If it wasn’t for Yeonjeokha, I would have run and tore off the muzzle.
“Tsk tsk! No matter how much chilpaimun, famous wild vegetables are not touched. It’ll be annoying if you ask for revenge later. But we have neither the ability to take revenge nor the living to look after us. The merchants of heaven and earth also knew that, so they intervened. If you install it without knowing the subject, you will perish.”
This time, Tak Go-myeong only sighed, but couldn’t refute.
It’s embarrassing, but Baek Gyo’s words were true.
‘damn! If I had had time for a year, I wouldn’t have come this far.’
The problem is that there are not many coriander in the wild vegetables because it was made not long ago. No, even if he had attended the green forest contest and only made friends with nearby wild plants…
Poong Yeon-cho’s expression as he watched the two people’s argument changed from moment to moment. If you think of the newly built house and the palace, you should stay, but if you do, you will surely die.
The mind is the same as that of Takgomyeong, but unfortunately, the reality is, as Baek Gyo said, a violent death.
will you run away? Or should I hold on?
A thousand thoughts ran through my head.
Hwang Yo-myeong, a poison heart bag who watched over the conflicting Poongyeon-cho, said crookedly.
“Excellent! What to worry about? Everything Brother Baek said is true. Heard that the Merchant of Heaven and Earth is coming, why do you spend so much time on it?”
Hwang Yo-myeong’s words became shorter and shorter.
It was an ambiguous situation whether he was talking half-heartedly or talking to himself, but there was no thief arguing about it.
At that time, the third son, Ma Hyeong-do, sided with Tak Go-myeong.
“Big brother! Let’s block the entrance like last time and look at the face of the merchant of heaven and earth. Isn’t it too unfair to give up living vegetables just listening to rumors?”
As expected, Hwang Yo-myeong walked right over.
“Don’t talk nonsense about that. Then what if the real merchant of heaven and earth comes? Do you think a sewage like us can run away from the merchants of heaven and earth?”
The thieves nodded at Hwang Yo-myeong’s sharp point.
However, Poongyeoncho, who sat in the high table, was an exception.
He just didn’t want to give up on rumors and throw away the wild vegetables. For that reason, the sincerity poured into Obong Sanchae was too precious. I ran away at best, but what if the merchant of heaven and earth does not come? Then you will become the laughing stock of the world.
Unknowingly, Poongyeoncho looked at Yeonjeokha.
Can Yeonjeokha stop the merchants of heaven and earth even for a moment? That would give us time to run away.
“Yeon-ah, by any chance. no no no.”
After speaking, Poongyeoncho shook her head.
No matter how much you say, it is impossible to deal with the merchants of heaven and earth. He didn’t want to push Yeon Jeok-ha, who had a bright future, into his limbs.
“What is it?”
When Yeon Jeok-ha showed interest, Poong Yeon-cho succumbed to the temptation.
“I thought it would be okay to run away after confirming that the Merchant of Heaven and Earth had come up. Can my brother block my back for a while? Don’t even think about overdoing it.”
After thinking for a while, Yeonjeokha asked.
“Brother, that merchant of heaven and earth is a guru. Can you cut people with blades of grass?”
The question is whether you are a master.
However, Poongyeoncho took the words at face value.
“You know it’s not like that, right? why?”
Although the Cheonji Merchants are famous, there have been no rumors of ‘slicing people with blades of grass’.
“Then we can stop it for a while.”
“really?”
A blush flashed across Poongyeoncho’s face.
This is because if serial loading buys time, the range of choices expands.
Simyanggak splashed cold water on the slightly excited Poongyeoncho.
“Feng Chaeju! It’s true that his martial arts are excellent, but he won’t last long enough for us to escape. Are you willing to risk your life for something trivial?”
Baek also struck a cynicism.
“joy! It’s good if you can hold out for half an hour (about 7-8 minutes). If I can run away, I’m a bastard.”
However, Poongyeoncho, who had made up her mind, did not care.
“Brothers! I have no intention of throwing away wild vegetables just by hearing rumors. I will stay until the end and check the face of the enemy. I won’t force it. Whoever stays with me stays, and whoever leaves, let go.”
Sanghwagak was shocked by Poongyeoncho’s declaration.
“If you stay, you die. Let’s just go.”
“You have to go. Non-partisan factions are different from the upper class.”
“Damn it, someone stop Chaeju-nim.”
“I don’t know. I will go.”
As time passed, the bandits naturally split into two groups.
Far more thieves flocked to Simyanggak and Baekgyo to leave than to Poongyeoncho to stay.
Simyanggak’s eyes went to the flag of Obong Sanchae, which was pierced next to the windmill. I was greedy for the flag, but I didn’t think Poongyeoncho would give up that.
‘Tsk! If we’re going to claim that it’s the main force of Obong Sanchae, we need that one…’
I guess I’ll have to come back to pick up the flag later.
Shim Yang-gak thought that Poongyeoncho and the others would not survive at the hands of the subjugation party. The non-partisan masters are impatient because they can’t kill Sapa.
When the hand was completely split, Hwang Yo-myeong bowed his head to Shen Yang-gak and Baek Kyo.
“Brothers go.”
About twenty thieves, led by Simyanggak and Baekgyo, began to escape Sanghwagak.
Cheon Ki-deok tapped his friend Lee Chul-san’s forearm.
“let’s go.”
“…”
But for some reason, Chulsan Lee didn’t think to move.
“What are you doing? Aren’t you going?”
“…uh.”
“What are you talking about? If you don’t go, you’re dead. If you have eyes too, look at those who remain. With the exception of Hyung-nim, there’s nothing special for everyone. This is not the time to be foolish.”
Still, Lee Cheol-san did not budge.
Now, his gaze was fixed on Han Chae-yeon.
It was only then that Cheon Ki-deok realized that Lee Cheol-san wanted to stay because of Han Chae-yeon.
“Are you…”
“Don’t worry. If you think it’s dangerous, you’ll jump right away. I have no intention of stopping or resisting.”
“and! This baby. crazy about women i’m going Follow me or not, you know. It’s not like there’s only one woman in the world. it’s crazy. it’s crazy.”
Chun Gi-deok shook his head and left.
After hesitating for a while, Lee Cheol-san stepped aside to Han Chae-yeon.
Lee Cheol-san, who was blinded by unrequited love, did not know. The choice he made now will determine his fate. A turning point in the bandit Lee Cheol-san’s life came, but his eyes were following Han Chae-yeon.
