Episode 967. I’m going to engrave it on my bones, so I need help?
Huanggang.
Hee Soo-hyun.
around noon.
At the entrance of Sedan Mountain, two double wagons entered side by side.
It is the carriage of the family members of Seokgyeongjang.
However, it was not long before the carriage had to stop.
It was because about twenty merchants were blocking the road.
One of the merchants spoke to the coachman.
“Look! Do you have an escort in the carriage?”
“Why don’t you?”
“Wild vegetables have grown in Sedan Mountain. If you came without an escort, we are collecting tolls, so please cooperate.”
The coachman laughed inwardly, but held it in.
“If that’s the case, talk to the old wagon owner.”
Then, the merchant Jeong Il-so approached the side of the carriage.
Just in time, the eyes of Yeon Jeok-ha and Jeong Il-so, who were looking out the window, met.
“Excuse me. At ten o’clock, I am collecting a toll on the Jangrak Sanchae. If you are going with us, we will pay you two hermits for each wagon.”
“Are you from above?”
“If it was up there, the escorts would have taken care of it. We are peddlers.”
“aha. How many are there?”
“Twenty-one.”
“Then do you pay about hermit dat nyang?”
“When do you talk about enemies? Ten hermits must be paid.”
“aha. So you blocked the road and caught us? I’m going to do it at ten o’clock.”
“It would be better in many ways to come with us. As long as you go to the carriage, you will never be able to cross over to your hermit.”
“is it so. Go back and ask for four hermits. Then I will give it to you.”
Yeonjeokha readily agreed.
It reminds me of the time when I lived as a bandit in Obong Mountain. Shouldn’t the bandits also make a living?
Jeong Il-so immediately moved backwards.
‘her! The beauty next to me is eye-catching. I don’t know if that woman is complicating things for no reason.’
In general, bandits were crazy about beautiful women.
For some reason, it didn’t seem like they would send the wagon nicely.
As we approached the carriage at the back, an old man with a goatee held out four hermits and asked.
“Do you know the name of wild vegetables?”
“I know it is Jangraksanchae.”
“Who is Chae-joo?”
“I don’t know about that. It hasn’t been long since it was created, so it’s not known yet.”
“Did you pay the toll without knowing who it was?”
“Oops! Don’t you know if it’s the top? Why do peddlers like us ask such a thing? If we bite each other and die, will we only lose?”
Heartache shook his head.
Now that I think about it, I think it was the same when I received the toll tax at Obongsan Mountain.
I don’t remember having a conversation with the escort captain, Sangdanju, or Haji other people, even if I said it.
“I get it. Go and see.”
After turning around and walking a few steps, Jeong Il-so returned to the lead carriage.
Yeonjeokha looked at him with eyes wondering what was going on.
“I’m just saying this just in case… you’d better close that window until you’ve passed the mountain.”
“Closing the windows in this heat?”
“It’s because the bandits don’t think they’ll just let go when they see the face of the person sitting next to them. Isn’t it said that beauty is more valuable than treasure?”
“Thank you for your words, but I will take care of it.”
“I clearly told you to be careful.”
“Yes yes. Do not worry.”
Shortly after Jeong Il-so returned to the merchants, the peddlers opened the way.
As the wagon moved forward, the peddlers followed diligently behind it.
It must have been about an hour (two hours) since we entered the mountain road.
A dozen or so men ambled out along the narrow mountain road.
The coachman who spotted them pulled the reins lightly.
Soon the carriage came to a complete stop.
Jeong Il-so and two peddlers who were following hurriedly ran forward.
As if in response, a man with a clumsiness stepped forward from among the thieves.
Jeong Il-so carefully handed him the package containing the hermit.
Tub Seokburi muttered as he opened the money package and checked the contents.
“There are two wagons, but this is all?”
Jeong Il-so said as if making an excuse.
“They aren’t from the upper reaches either… so I calculated the same as last time.”
“Still, if you have two wagons, you have a lot of money, but you have to do the calculations right away. Is it because it’s a peddler? Are your calculations fuzzy?”
Jeong Il-so was speechless and waited for the man’s disposition.
Tubseokburi passed by Jeongilso and approached the carriage.
“Our Jangraksanchae plans to join the Green Forest sooner or later. I got a recommendation from Janggang Suichae in Gu Guo. So, don’t be fooled by the calculations. That’s not polite to greening.”
Tub Seokburi, who had been talking loudly as if to be heard, stopped next to the carriage.
Then, through the wide open window, he looked inside the carriage.
It was all about a young man with an ordinary look, a beautiful woman with a bright color, a little girl, and a baby white tiger.
The purring white tiger lying on his belly next to the girl is also amazing, but the heart-stoppingly beautiful woman was more shocking than that.
“Howdy! Can’t this be a hermit? You should get a minimum wage. you! You’re hanging out with a woman full of resentment. What family are you from? Are you the emperor’s son?”
The thieves who followed him giggled at Tubseokburi’s words.
Then the carriage door behind him opened violently.
Then the heartache came out.
“You dog Holo son! The one who hasn’t even put his name on Green Forest yet! What are you doing after grabbing Tae Sang-ho-beop’s carriage? take gold? A woman full of minutes? If you want to die, go to a corner, grab a knife, and fall down. Why are you yelling in front of Confucius?”
Tubseokburi, startled by Simtong’s words, asked with a half-confident face.
“Is Tae Sang-ho of Green Forest really riding in this carriage?”
“That bastard! Oh, you burn!”
I couldn’t stand it, but the heartache that flew along with the swear words stamped my chest with my feet.
“Keeck!”
The stubble tumbled backwards with a suffocating scream.
That’s not the end.
Heartache circled around the carriage like the wind and punched the faces of the bandits gathered together.
The eight thieves who laughed at Tubseokburi’s words fell like autumn leaves.
The remaining half of the thieves knelt down and put their heads to the ground without anyone telling them to.
My heartache was that they were going to join Green Forest, so I didn’t use my hands anymore.
Tubseokburi, who was hit and rolled first, crawled in front of Simtong and shouted, banging its head on the ground.
“Forgive me! I couldn’t recognize the high-ranking people because my eyes were dark!”
“You can’t come to your senses until the end. The person you need to ask for forgiveness is not me, but the head of the Seokgyeongjang and his wife.”
Then, with a white face, he shouted at the carriage.
“Tae Sang-ho! Forgive me! The small person committed a sin without recognizing him!”
Yeon Jeok-ha, who was looking at him with a sad face, asked.
“What is your brother’s name?”
“My name is Jaesin Myeongjae!”
“It’s a prestigious household. Sedansan, why is the name Jangraksanchae?”
At the sudden question, Myeong Jae-shin raised his head.
Looking at the other person’s face, it seemed that he was really curious and asked.
“To make the joy last for a long time… I named it Jangrak.”
“It seemed so. You want to go thin and long?”
“Yes that’s right.”
“How long have you been a thief?”
“About five years.”
“I’m over ten years old, so I’m a senior. Listen carefully to what your seniors say. If you want to go thin and long, cut the toll and don’t mess around with the ladies. Then you can go hook right away.”
“Yes yes!”
“It’s not just words. Just today, we even paid the toll because it reminded us of the past. But my brother dared to step out and earn a bee. If you can’t control your greed for wealth, you won’t be able to steal for long. Well, if you want to make it big and go far away and start anew, that would be fine too. What will the family members do? To get everyone’s share of Jangrak Sanchae, you’d have to rob the palace, right? So do it in moderation. Moderately.”
“Yes, I will engrave the teachings like Geumgwaokjo on my bones.”
When Myeong Jae-shin put the sound he had heard somewhere, Yeon Jeok-ha said.
“Yeah, well thought out. I’m going to engrave it on my bones, so should I help you?”
“yes?”
Myung Jae-shin tilted his head at the words that he would help.
Then Yeonjeokha lightly flipped his palm.
At that moment, Myung Jae-shin said, ‘Ugh!’ With a sound, he fell flat on the ground.
I couldn’t move my limbs at all, as if I was under the mountain.
“Please save me!”
“Who killed you? You want to engrave it on your bones? It helps.”
Soon, the bones in his arms and legs broke with a thud.
“evil!”
“Originally, they say that once a broken bone sticks together, it becomes stronger. I don’t know because I didn’t break it.”
“…”
Myung Jae-shin endured until the end without losing consciousness.
“If there are seniors who think of juniors like me, ask them to come and see them. old man? Was there a senior who thought of juniors more than me?”
“doesn’t exist.”
“It’s a name.”
“Yes….”
“If you hear people say that they can’t live because of Jangrak Sanchae… All of you bury them. If you want to go thin and long, do it well.”
“Yes, ah…”
Myung Jae-shin, who had been stretching his neck for a long time, struggled with his head on the ground when a wall suddenly came.
‘Tsk tsk!’ Yeon Jeok-ha, who had clicked his tongue, said to the coachman.
“song.”
The carriage moved slowly.
The peddlers followed diligently behind them.
Jeong Il-so, who was following the carriage, hesitated.
A hermit’s package appeared in front of him.
It seemed that he had dropped it when he fell down after being hit for the first time.
‘Should I take it back when there are no thieves?’
Conflicted, he turned his head slightly at the hot gaze.
‘omg!’
Scattered on the ground were glaring at us with devouring eyes.
He hurriedly turned his head and hurriedly blended in with the peddlers.
This is because you never know what will happen to you in the future if you get caught by him.

Hapbi.
Jang Bong-hyun.
At dusk, about 300 warriors quietly entered the village.
It is the secondary support unit of the Hocheon League.
The patriarch, Hwasan faction Dosan Jinin, called in the ‘Cheonmyeongdae’ of the Yukpa clan and the ‘Hocheondae’ selected by the Moorim competition.
“I heard that there is a breakwater for the Southern League in Jangbong-hyeon…”
Dosan Jinin’s words answered Hocheondaeju Cheol Ah-ham.
“It’s a window inscription.”
“Yes, the musketeer said he wanted to clear things up first, since he could easily be followed by Changbimun. Who will take over?”
It was about being stepped on, but in fact, it also had the meaning of revenge.
This is because Changbimun is the second most famous breakout of the Southern League after Oh Dae-se.
Irony came out.
“Please leave it to Hocheondae.”
Cheol Ah-ham’s eyes were full of murder because he suffered damage during the last round of support.
“Hocheondae will lead the vanguard. Do not pursue those who run away, but those who try to catch up secretly must be killed by thousands of people.”
“yes.”
The eyes of the Qingseong faction, Geumyang Jinin, who knew the meaning of this fight, were also cold.
When the son-in-law was getting dark, Hocheonmaeng’s secondary support unit appeared in front of the Changbimun.
Soon after, about a hundred Hocheondae went over the fence of Changbimun.
The silent window door was turned upside down.
The sound of weapons crashing and the screams of people bit the tail.
Although Changbimun said that the five generations were next, he could not compete with the Hocheondae selected through the Moorim Contest.
Dozens of Changbimun disciples fled out of the Changbimun.
Some of them were hiding in the dark, monitoring the enemy’s movements.
But that was the same as running in front of the tiger to avoid the wolf.
The disciples of Changbimun, who were hiding and spying, were all killed at the hands of Cheonmyeongdae.
It was not until the next day that Nam Maeng learned of the disaster at Changbimun.
Upon learning that Hocheonmaeng’s counterattack had begun, the Southern League commander hurriedly dispatched the southern alliance’s masters to Jangbong-hyeon.
Of course, not to defeat the Hocheonmaeng, but just to figure out their movement.
That was the only thing the Southern Alliance could do now that Namgung Byeok, the best swordsman of the Southern League, was in training.
