Episode 139. In the sewers of hell,
the muscular hammer master is sleeping while snoring.
Still, Han Ibi took out an iron piece from the weapons display stand and tied up the two people.
‘I don’t know if I’ll wake up from my sleep… If there’s one thing I’ve learned since coming to Moorim, it’s that I have to be careful!’
Perhaps because it was late, it was fortunate that no one else was seen in the workshop.
He went back to the back of the blacksmith shop with the beggar boy.
The beggar boy said.
“Just as I thought, there is an entrance to the manor.”
Ebi Han said.
“Well, of course. Otherwise, I would have to walk a huge distance every time I go home.”
The two quietly opened the side door leading toward the manor.
“and!”
“Wow!”
My mouth opens without me realizing it.
An exclamation that comes out of nowhere.
The landscaping inside the manor was extremely beautifully decorated.
Ebi Han said.
“I guess I made a lot of money.”
“That’s right. “I have never seen such a beautiful garden.”
The beggar boy’s eyes shone brightly.
Han Ibi said with a grin.
“hey. You’re more sentimental than I thought. “It’s a beggar topic.”
Then the beggar boy changed his expression and said.
“Do you know that beggars have no eyes for anything?”
Seeing the boy’s reaction, which was more unexpected than expected, Han Ibi quickly tried to change the subject.
“uh! yes. “Speaking of eyes reminds me of Ha’s protection method. Let’s quickly find a workshop.”
After hearing those words, the beggar boy unfolded the crumpled note.
Han Ibi said after seeing that.
“But is that true that Ha Hobeop wrote it?”
The beggar boy said as he brought the paper closer to his eyes.
“No matter how I look at it, I think Hobeop’s handwriting is correct. “It wouldn’t be easy to imitate something like this.”
The boy tilted his head and continued speaking.
“Anyway, it doesn’t seem like there’s a detailed map included… huh? “Where are you going?”
“I’ll have to look for it.”
“Do you know where it is?”
“All the money in the Five Classics comes from the blacksmith shop, but human nature is the same everywhere.”
“yes?”
“They probably put it in a corner around here. The blacksmith shop is a bit messy. “People tend to hide dirty facilities behind them.”
It was then.
A large, black building that was clearly different from the other structures in the manor caught my eye.
Han Ibi said with a triumphant look on her face.
“Look.”
The beggar boy said.
“Why is it so frustrating that we didn’t make a window?”
“It’s obvious.”
“What?”
“Confidentiality.”
“yes?”
“The intention was not to leak the technology for making weapons. “They are hiding inside there, manufacturing famous machines.”
If you go to the company, you will quickly find out.
“Oh, I see. “You’re smarter than I thought.”
“then. I’m smarter than I thought… Hey! “Where are you going?”
“We have to find a way to get in quickly. “I am very concerned about the safety of Lord Ha.”
“You think he’s here?”
“I don’t know, but…”
The two people started searching, closing in on the huge, silent building.
Ebi Han said.
“We need to get in quickly before the people in the manor start wandering around.”
“But… where do I go in?”
Instead of answering, Han E-bi activated ‘Design Analysis’.
The silhouette of the building, like a contour line, is revealed.
‘It’s a really solid, well-built building. I would believe it if they said it was a military facility.’
Han Ibi took a deep breath and took a step back.
The beggar boy was looking at this with a puzzled expression.
‘Hmph!’
Han Yi-bi, who stopped breathing momentarily while using the Zhongli Myeongjeongsimbeop flowing within her Danjeon, suddenly jumped forward and sprinted at full speed.
Let’s go to Zhongli!
He was climbing up the smooth black wall.
Comfortable movement as if running on flat ground.
The beggar boy watched with his mouth wide open.
Han E-bi instantly touches the roof.
Han Ibi whispered downwards.
“Don’t act surprised. I know everything. You also do some martial arts. “Try showing off your light attack skills.”
Then the beggar boy also stepped back and immediately jumped up, hitting the door.
The Seonpungsinbeop (旋風body method), which can be said to be an open-minded technique of enlightenment.
The boy lifted his slender body into the air and attempted to follow Han Ibi up the wall.
But is it not enough to have a handful of air power?
The point at which you are unable to take the last step and are hit back by gravity.
chin.
Han Ibi fell backwards while holding the beggar boy’s hand and putting her weight on it.
Then, using his strength, the boy did a somersault and landed gracefully like a swallow.
Han Ibi stood up, rubbing her butt.
“hey. “Who helped you? Are you just trying to be cool?”
The beggar boy said with a triumphant expression.
“Now might not be the time.”
Han E-bi let out a ‘hmph’ sound and soon put her design analysis skills to use.
The boy looked at Han Ibi and said.
“Why are you staying still?”
Han Ibi said, glaring at the beggar boy.
“You’re not as patient as you make yourself out to be.”
Then it started moving quickly as if it had discovered something.
the beggar boy asked.
“Why is the roof up?”
Han Ibi said with an expression as if she didn’t know that either.
“Where am I?”
“It’s a blacksmith’s workshop.”
“yes. Metallurgical operations usually require large amounts of heat. “For that, we’ll have to start a fire.”
Then the beggar boy made an ‘Ah’ sound and said.
“okay. “We need to let out the heat and smoke.”
Han Ibi said, clicking her fingers together.
“that’s right. But this building doesn’t have any common windows. So, we need to have sufficient exhaust facilities somewhere.”
“Exhaust system?”
“Oh, there is something like that. For example…”
Han Ibi pointed to a place where steam and smoke were rising.
“…A place like that.”
The two walked towards the place Han Ibi pointed out.
The beggar boy said after seeing that place.
“The chimney is incredibly big.”
“that’s right. “Do we have to exhaust the collected smoke and heat at once?”
“yes? “What do you mean?”
“They say you have to go in here. “Stop breathing!”
After shouting like that, Han Ibi jumped into the exhaust vent first.
“Oh!”
Surprised beggar boy.
But Han Ibi had already disappeared.
So, even after hesitating for a moment, the boy had no choice but to push himself into it.
Land land land!
Kangkang!
The noisy sound of work was engulfing the entire interior.
When the boy looked down, Han Ibi was standing on the beam.
Soon after, the boy also climbed onto the beam in the same way.
Han Ibi put her finger on her upper lip.
A sign to be quiet.
The beggar boy nodded and carefully followed Han Ibi.
Dead end.
Han Ibi jumped from the girder and climbed to the opposite girder.
Fortunately, it was noisy inside so I couldn’t hear much.
Below them, numerous men were forging or tempering weapons, completely naked.
Han Ibi whispered.
“Look at that. “It’s quite spectacular.”
The beggar boy, however, spoke while ignoring the scene unfolding below.
“Now tell me what to do.”
“Let’s go further along the beam like this.”
Han Ibi closed her eyes for a moment, then opened them and continued speaking.
“The size measured from the outside and the size of the internal workplace do not match. This means that there is more space than the workplace. “I think it’s probably over there.”
Then the boy stuck out his tongue and whispered.
“You’re talking as if you were the one who built this building.”
Ugh. Sorry. Actually, it’s all thanks to the frog.
The two moved carefully, staying close to the ceiling.
Then we finally reached the space that looked like a hallway below.
The beggar boy said.
“I don’t think there’s anyone. “I guess I can go down and have a look.”
Han Ibi nodded and hung on the beam before landing quietly on the floor.
On the other hand, the beggar boy jumped straight off the beam and looked like a butterfly.
But the boy’s expression distorted as he got down to the floor.
“Wow.”
Han Ibi also frowned.
“It smells kind of awful….”
That’s right.
A terrible smell that seemed to be creeping out from behind the slaughterhouse.
Han Ibi muttered.
“It feels somehow familiar… Ah!”
“What’s wrong?”
“This… is almost identical to the stench that came from the blind beggar’s body.”
The beggar boy said, frowning even more.
“Then it seems that he is not our guardian.”
The two people went a little further inside.
The beggar boy said.
“Luckily there’s no one there.”
“Who would want to smell such a horrible smell?”
“Ugh. Stop talking about that smell. “I feel like I’m going to throw up already.”
At that time, the boy ran as if he had discovered something.
“What is this? “It looks like a cart.”
The boy looked inside the cart as if he was curious.
But soon he got scared and jumped out.
“Ahh! what’s this!”
Then Han Ibi also came closer and saw the cart.
wooden cart.
The inside of the cart, which was naturally supposed to be brown… surprisingly, was completely stained red.
And…
“Ugh!”
Han Ibi also took a step back without realizing it.
It’s stuck between the gaps inside the cart.
It was clearly a human finger!
At that moment, Han Ibi’s gaze, which had stopped, fell on the iron gate next to the cart.
He slowly approached it.
Then the beggar boy said.
“No! “Please don’t open it!”
But Han Ibi eventually put her hand on the iron door.
After hesitating for just a moment, he slowly pushed the door open.
And the sights within.
Is this the sewer of hell?
Han Ibi was feeling an extreme feeling of nausea coming from deep inside her body.
Yes.
Inside, there were piles of meat piled up haphazardly… that is, rotting corpses along with human body parts.
Behind it was what looked like a huge furnace, with a stone chimney connected to the ceiling.
So, this place is… a kind of crematorium.
Han Yi-bi said quickly.
“Don’t come here!”
The beggar boy said with a frown on his face.
“Even if I tell you to come, I won’t go. “Don’t tell me what you saw.”
At that moment, Han Ibi remembered the conversation between Seonmujae and the blind beggar that took place in the guest room during the day.
[It is true that the production of jiangshi is officially banned…]
[There are a large number of missing people in Hubei Province…]
Han Ibi thought.
‘No way, this place…’
That was then.
I heard something that sounded like people in the distance.
The beggar boy also flinched and said.
“Did you hear?”
Han Ibi nodded.
“Okay…”
The two started walking towards the end of the hallway.
As time went on, the sound got louder.
The beggar boy whispered.
“It sounds like a fight.”
The closer they got, the clearer the noise became.
The two people reduced their presence and headed towards the place where the sound was coming from.
A place where light is leaking out.
It is an open structure with no separate doors.
So Han Ibi and the boy lowered themselves even further and began to slowly approach that place.
Han Ibi craned her neck and looked inside.
And finally…
‘Seonmujae!’
Han Ibi discovered Seonmujae.
However, the time his consciousness stayed with Seonmujae did not last even a moment…
because an incredible sight was immediately caught in his sight.
Seonmujae was engaged in a one-on-many battle.
This is a commonly seen scene up to this point.
But once you get to know the other person, the story changes.
This is because the enemies fighting Seonmujae were a group of jiangshi.
And on the other side of the fierce battlefield, an old man was muttering loudly with his arms outstretched.
This may have been the identity of the sound heard earlier.
But that old man…
somehow looks familiar.
Han Yi-bi opened her Nganjutsu Cheonan-gun and kept an eye on the old man.
I found out right away.
The fact that the old man was none other than Han No-eun, and that he was the beggar in the guest house who appeared pretending to be blind.
“Ugh!”
Then a harsh groan was heard.
This was because Seonmujae’s shoulder was torn long by Yeo Gangsi’s fingernails.
Seonmujae, with blood dripping all over his body, looked as if he would collapse at any moment due to fatigue and injuries.
Han Ibi clenched her fists without realizing it and jumped out, violently kicking the ground.
