Episode 16. The three-piece
replica said.
“no. father. “Father’s 60th birthday is still a long time away.”
Bok Yeongjeon said.
“What does it mean to have a birthday? “A day when welcome guests arrive can be said to be a real feast.”
After the meeting, the shaman group unpacked their belongings at the accommodation for the visiting guests.
Only then did the greetings between the young disciples begin.
Bok Yeon-hwa was fussing at the sight of the executioners she hadn’t seen in a long time, and Tak Buyong was looking at her happily behind them.
I could tell just by looking at his eyes.
How much he loves a woman named Bok Yeon-hwa…
Gu Gap-hwi was originally a person who was a bit cheeky and good at telling jokes.
As he greeted her and talked about various things, Bok Yeon-hwa held her stomach and laughed.
Han Ibi thought.
‘Wow… It’s really beautiful to see again.’
Yeonhwa Bok said.
“But… I see a face I haven’t seen before.”
Gu Gap-hwi said.
“then. of course. We also brought in a new disciple. “Could it be possible that we were just playing around while Samadhi was training?”
“How many people?”
“one person.”
“Eh? “So there’s only one person under me?”
“Yes… Yeonhwa. “You know that, but the popularity of the Cheongseong faction has fallen a lot these days.”
“But isn’t this… a bit too harsh?”
“Ugh. I guess you’ve lost your senses since you’ve been abroad. Anyway, let me say hello. hey! “Myeongcheon.”
Gu Gap-hwi called Han Ibi.
“yes.”
Han Ibi walked towards them.
Gu Gap-hwi said.
“Please say hello to each other. “The ages may be similar, but in terms of initiation, he will be your sister-in-law much longer than you, so you will need to take good care of him.”
Bok Yeon-hwa said with a bright smile.
“nice to meet you. Congratulations on your initiation into the great Qingcheng Sect. “I call myself Bok Yeon-hwa.”
Finally, Han Ibi got a chance to see her right in front of him.
But…
‘Boom!’ I felt like my heart was sinking.
‘This… is completely a celebrity. No, it would be more accurate to say that he is a celebrity’s celebrity. Big eyes on a small face. Even down to her pointed nose… she is a woman with a bold spirit amidst her cuteness.’
At that time, I heard Gu Gap-hwi yelling.
Although his face was smiling.
“Hey you idiot! What are you doing? “Your only sister is personally greeting you.”
Han Ibi was startled and stammered.
“Ah yes. I’m sorry… I’m sorry. Han no no. “My name is Song Myeong-cheon…”
Yeonhwa Bok said, laughing.
“What~ this guy. “Do you think he actually stutters?”
Then Gu Gap-hwi smiled meaningfully and said.
“Is that possible? Even if that guy looks like that, the original saying is Cheongsan Yusu. “I think I’ve become a fool now because I’ve stopped falling in love with the pretty face of the sister.”
Han Ibi was embarrassed and threw up her hands. Then Gu Gap-hwi changed his expression completely again and said.
“what? “No?”
“yes. no. no.”
“okay?”
Gu Gap-hwi then spoke to Bok Yeon-hwa.
“Samai Bok. “The new kid said you’re ugly?”
Yeonhwa Bok said, raising an eyebrow.
“what?”
Han Yi-bi, who was even more embarrassed, waved her hand again and said.
“no. It can’t be. It’s pretty. You are so pretty. “It’s like… it came down from the sky.”
omg. What did I say….
At that time, Han Ibi and Bok Yeon Hwa’s eyes met.
A feeling of pain in one part of the chest.
Even a child could sense that the woman’s face was turning red.
Subtle sensation. A pounding heart. The dry spit that passes over….
Bok Yeon-hwa suddenly got angry.
“execution! “Is it really going to be like this after seeing you for so long?”
Gu Gap-hwi, who heard those words, pretended to be embarrassed and walked towards her, bowing his head and making a comical and bizarre expression.
“oh my. yes yes. Sister. sorry. “I won’t do that again.”
Then Bok Yeon-hwa suddenly grabbed her belly button and burst into laughter.
“damn. execution! “When did you write that down already?”
It seems like it was probably a prank that was played a lot when I was a kid.
“It works, but what? It still works. “Samae just got older and nothing has changed.”
“Who can say anything!”
Then my vision becomes blurry again.
‘100 million! no. I want to see more of her pretty face. system!’
Of course, there was no way the system would listen.
I could see scenes flashing by.
Bok Yeon-hwa and the shaman group were scheduled to stay for a total of three months.
The distance was long, and it could be said to be a consideration for her, who was visiting home after a long time.
The last event is the 60th birthday party of Cheongseongpa Jang Mun-i.
The conclusion of the visit is attending the 60th birthday party.
However, as the scenes passed, Han Ibi was able to realize an unexpected fact.
This means that with each passing day, laughter was blooming between Song Myeong-cheon and Bok Yeon-hwa.
Of course, it started with Bok Yeon-hwa constantly touching the only priest to make fun of him.
And every time, I could see the face of Tak Bu-yong, who was guarding Bok Yeon-hwa’s side, gradually becoming distorted.
Only then did Han Ibi realize why the shaman faction had brought Zhuo Buyong on this trip.
On the surface, it seemed like they were trying to show off in advance by having the best shamans attend the 60th birthday party… but in reality, they were trying to show it off in advance.
This is Bok Yeon-hwa’s future husband.
But…
‘Tsk tsk. That woman looks smart, but she’s also extremely dull. Although Bok Yeon-hwa shows a lot of closeness to Tak Buyong, it is difficult to interpret it as a ‘man-woman relationship’. It is clear that this woman has no idea why Tak Buyong came with her.’
Bok Yeon-hwa was surprised to learn that Song Myeong-cheon, although he joined late, had grown by leaps and bounds and was a candidate for the next generation leader of the Qingcheng faction.
Zhuo Bu-yong also openly ignored Song Myeong-cheon at first, but after learning that his status in the Qingcheng faction was not small, he treated him warmly to the point of being burdensome.
No, maybe there is another reason.
Anyway, Bok Yeon-hwa and Tak Buyong follow her, who are obsessed with the fun of making fun of the priest.
And Song Myeong-cheon and I became very close after spending two months together.
This can be said to be a natural result not only due to his age but also his status as an ‘ace’.
Song Myeong-cheon and Bok Yeon-hwa are the same age.
Tak Buyong was two years older than them.
The scenes played out again… Finally, Song Myeong-cheon, Bok Yeon-hwa, and Zhuo Bu-yong were seen sitting under a huge oak tree on a hill.
And rapidly changing vision.
Han Ibi felt synchronized with Song Myeong-cheon again.
It seemed like the sun was about to set. The red sunset was very beautiful.
The wind was cool, and the air that pierced my lungs was extremely clear.
The three looked at the setting sun in silence. The setting sun, ripening like a crimson, covered her face.
Oh, whose work is this beautiful harmony?
The moment Han Yi-bi looked at her in fascination, Tak Bu-yong opened his mouth as if he had been waiting.
“That sunset burns even brighter, as if it is jealous of our friendship.”
Yeonhwa Bok said with a smile.
“But soon it will disappear beyond that ridge. “The world will become dark.”
Tak Buyong said.
“But our friendship will shine brightly forever!”
“Ha ha ha ha ha.”
The two people laughed loudly at the same time.
‘What kind of situation is this?’
Han Ibi found this cringe-worthy situation simply absurd.
At that time, Tak Buyong spoke to Han Ibi, who looked confused.
“hey. Myeongcheon. You seem to doubt the immortality of our friendship? “Why are you looking so stiff?”
Han Ibi opened her mouth in embarrassment.
“Oh… I just… don’t.”
Bok Yeon-hwa, who heard those words, frowned and said.
“What is it, Song Myeong-cheon? Why are you doing this again? We swore in that guesthouse. “I will be with you forever.”
Yes. I think I saw a scene where three people were in a panic, singing and holding hands.
All three people seem to be well-respected.
“And what? Are you still not used to it? “We decided to speak comfortably when we were alone.”
Uh… the progress has already reached that point. We need to deal with this quickly before suspicion arises.
“ah! That’s right. “Of course, I don’t have any doubts about our friendship.”
At that time, Tak Bu-yong spoke.
“Yeonhwa. I was going out to that street with my teacher earlier… It looked so pretty that I bought one. “But I don’t think this is very suitable for men.”
Tak Bu-yong put his hand into his bosom and took it out with a squeak.
In his palm was a jade-colored, round jade tablet. Looking at its shape, it looks like a woman’s plaything.
When I looked at Bok Yeon-hwa holding the jade tablet, I saw the corners of his mouth rise vertically.
Han Ibi thought.
‘As expected, women regardless of the era…’
Tak Buyong was satisfied with the smile and held out the jade tablet.
“softening. “I’ll give it to you.”
Yeonhwa Bok accepted it with a smile the size of a hamjibak.
“It went really well.”
Yes? Did it go well?
It doesn’t seem appropriate as a greeting for receiving something.
Tak Bu-yong also looked at Bok Yeon-hwa with a puzzled face, as if he had sensed something unusual.
She suddenly grabbed the jade tablet with both hands and took a straight posture.
Zhuo Buyong just looked at her with an even more incomprehensible expression.
Bye.
The sound was loud.
Tak Buyong was so surprised that his eyeballs seemed to pop out and he made a ‘sound’ sound.
“Yeonhwa. what are you doing?”
However, she did not stop and took the upright position again.
Splitting a jade tablet takes a lot of strength.
At such a young age, he clearly did not have the usual deep engineering skills.
And then….
Suddenly.
The jade tablet split again into three pieces.
Bok Yeon-hwa smiled brightly and said to Tak Bu-yong, whose eyes were already popping out, as if nothing had happened.
“As expected, there is something special about Tak’s execution. “I was looking at that sunset and thinking to myself that it would be nice to have something like this.”
Tak Buyong served hand-made crab foam.
Han Ibi thought.
‘It must be very expensive to see Tak Bu-yong so surprised. I pretended to be cool and bought everything cheaply.’
Tak Buyong said.
“What are you talking about?”
“huh. “It’s my father’s birthday soon.”
“yes.”
“After the banquet, we will go back.”
“of course.”
“Then we will break up.”
“Maybe so.”
“Then it will take a very long time for these three to get together again.”
“so?”
Instead of answering, Bok Yeon-hwa raised her left palm, held out the jade tablets, and picked up the middle one.
Yeonhwa Bok said.
“Pick them up one by one.”
Tak Buyong must have realized what was going on and picked up the piece on the right as if he had no choice.
Naturally, Han Ibi picked up the remaining piece on the left.
Whether by coincidence or necessity, this also matched the order in which we were currently sitting next to each other.
Yeonhwa Bok said.
“good. It’s over now. Even though it’s not a peach tree…”
She giggled to herself, wondering what was so funny, and then continued.
“…You will become sworn siblings under the oak tree. “Isn’t that really cool?”
Um… cool?
However, Tak Buyong quickly answered.
“awesome! good idea. Why didn’t I think of that earlier? As expected, Samae is a genius.”
But his facial muscles are trembling due to his forced smile… no. You must be tired.
Sometimes it happens if you lack vitamins.
Yeonhwa Bok smiled and said, as if she was satisfied.
“Anytime, anywhere, let us become one with each other like this jade tablet. “I will carry this piece of jade tablet with me until I die.”
Tak Buyong said.
“good. “Even when I die, I will ask you to bury me with you.”
Only Han Ibi’s lines remain.
So, should I increase my level further as the order progresses?
Ugh… It’s really cringy, but…
“Okay. “I will also keep this jade tablet forever, even in the afterlife.”
Then Bok Yeon-hwa suddenly got up from her seat and jumped up and said,
“It’s so cool. It’s so romantic. I promised! Our three siblings. Tak hyung. And Song Au.”
ok? Weren’t we the same age? Why is it Song’s younger brother?…
But at that moment when light and darkness change their responsibilities.
That mystery.
She was too… too beautiful to hold the book.
Elder Song Myeong-cheon probably felt the same way.
