Episode 1473 The things you have done are producing results. (3)
“……Whew.”
A man with a face full of fatigue raised his head and looked at the scene unfolding before his eyes. People were hurrying along the not-so-wide mountain path, each carrying their luggage and pulling a cart.
“How much further do we have to go?”
“Can’t you see the volcano over there? We’re almost there. Please hold on a little longer. older brother.”
The man raises his head at the words he hears next to him.
Behind the small mountain they were climbing, a tall mountain could be seen rising upward. The mountain still seems quite far away. However, just by looking at the rough shape of the mountain, it was not difficult to recognize that it was Hwasan, one of the Five Mountains.
“…I think I heard that before.”
“Is the child okay? I still need to feed him something…”
“Leave him alone. Sometimes sleep is better.”
The man slowly turned his head and looked at the child on his back. A small child, perhaps no more than five years old, was fast asleep.
The man’s eyes as he looks at the child are full of calm affection.
“Please hand over the luggage in your hand.”
“That’s it. Are you going to carry all my luggage? “The baggage I brought with me is already heavier than the child.”
“I’m still younger than you.”
“If a corrupt person keeps his mouth open. “I won’t give up for ten years.”
“If you insist. Then, even if it’s your sister-in-law’s burden…” “
I said it’s okay. Don’t overdo it yourself. “They say I have someone who will take care of me even if I collapse, but you don’t have one?” “
…You’re worried about that, right?”
“then.”
“……”
The face of the young man who was asking for his luggage suddenly distorted. He was just about to say something.
“But honey.”
“hmm?”
The person carrying the child turned his head and looked at his wife. A woman with a large luggage on her head asked with an extremely anxious face.
“…Is it really right to go to Shaanxi?”
“……”
“I followed you and this person after hearing their words, but I feel uneasy. I wonder if
we will really be able to live well in that far, unfamiliar place…”
The man answered. Just as he was about to do so, the young man quickly opened his mouth.
“No! Sister-in-law. What do you mean? Living well or not is a matter of later. Don’t you have to put your life on the line first?”
“…They say Shaanxi is just as dangerous.”
“But isn’t there a Cheonwoomaeng in Shaanxi?”
“They say Shaolin came to where we lived too…”
“Oh my. Sister-in-law.”
The young man beat his chest in frustration.
“Shaolin? When has that Shaolin ever paid attention to us? “Did Gupa and the like ever bring us even a grain of rice when our lives were difficult?”
The woman nodded as if what she said was correct.
“I saw it too. They proudly say that they will protect Hubuk. But the Hubuk that they protect is not us. “Aren’t we the ones who will praise ourselves for doing a good job after protecting the land even if we all die?”
“That’s right,”
said the person carrying the child.
“Of course, it is true that Cheon U-maeng did not properly protect Sacheon. But would that put Cheon Woo-maeng in the same place as the Gu Sect? Who helped us in our difficult times? Have you forgotten that Huashan and Tang came to the Yangtze River to share grain and defeat the enemy?” ”
Of course I remember. “I’m human too.”
No matter what anyone says, those who received the greatest help from Cheon Yu-maeng’s rescue were the people living in the Yangtze River basin.
However, it was not only the Yangtze River people who observed their actions meaningfully. Citizens from all over Hubei Province, bordering the Yangtze River, watched it all.
“Those old faction bastards would sneak in about once a year, show off, and then go back. What did they do for you? But that Tang family came from Sacheon, settled here, and helped the people. That’s right. That Party family came from Sacheon. “If it had remained there, what would have happened to those Sapa bastards?”
As the young man’s voice grew louder, people walking around nodded as well. Even if they denied everything, it was absolutely undeniable that Cheon Woo-maeng worked hard for them.
“I don’t know if Cheonwoo-maeng can protect us. Who knows? Still, if you have to believe in one of the two, you have to believe in Cheon Woo-maeng. “How can you trust people who just talk their mouths?”
“That’s right.”
“yes. Of course you have to trust Cheonwoo Meng!”
Fierce voices suddenly erupted from the left and right.
In the first place, these were people who were prepared to go a long distance to entrust themselves to Cheonwoo Meng. It was natural that there would be a favorable response.
“I think the same thing . .”
“Honey.”
“It’s hard, just endure it. Do you think I’ll have a spider web in my mouth?”
The man turns his head again and looks at the child on his back.
“As long as I live, the day will come when I can go back. So, let’s just be patient, okay?”
The woman nods her head at her husband’s words. Her gaze also turned to the child riding on her husband’s back. Would you be willing to walk a thousand miles for that child?
“I hope I don’t get beaten up.”
The man sighed.
He knows it too. There is no way the Cheonwoo-maeng would welcome them. In times of war like this, the people who are treated like burdens the most are the civilians who don’t know how to fight and only eat food and livestock. If it’s a real war
, They could conscript men and use them, but in a war between warriors, people like them were of no use.
“Still, is it really necessary to kick out people who came a long way when they are blind in name and nature? “They’ll at least put a seat under the eaves.”
“……”
“Let’s hold out somehow until the war ends. Then there will be a way.”
“……yes.”
It was time for the man to make a firm resolution.
“Everyone is here! If you go over that point, it’s harmony!”
The person from Cheonyangmun who followed them to protect them shouted loudly. Those who heard the voice gathered all their strength and climbed the hill. And then, “Huh?
”
”
… …Huh?”
Those who climbed to the top of the mountain blinked their eyes wide.
“…Didn’t you say that Hwaeum is not a very big village?”
“I heard that too, right?”
There were two reasons why they came in harmony. One is that chords are where volcanoes are. Another thing is that in order to get to Xi’an, Shaanxi’s largest city, you have to pass through Hwaeum anyway.
Even if Hwaeum, where the volcano is located, is too small to provide a proper place to live, all you have to do is go to Xi’an.
But the harmony that unfolded before their eyes was very different from what they had heard. The small town they had heard about was everywhere, and a large city was spread out with buildings lined up like a checkerboard.
“I think it’s bigger than Gyu Kyun-hyeon?”
“Ah. Is it really bigger than Gyunhyeon? No matter what…”
“No. Even if it’s excessive, it’s not small, right?”
“…Really?”
Those who reached the top blinked, even forgetting the fatigue from climbing the mountain.
“This place…was it originally like this?”
“It can’t be possible… Ah! Species name! Didn’t you say you were around here a while ago? “Was it like this back then?”
“It was a really small town two years ago when I came here?”
“okay?”
The man looks back at the city with a bewildered expression.
“That means this was built in just a few years… Then it seems that Cheonwoomaeng is a much greater place than what the world says. Otherwise, the volcano is amazing.”
Several people nodded in agreement.
“It seems that the rumor that the Cheonwoomaeng headquarters will be located here was true.”
“It seems so.”
“Let’s go. “There’s a crowd behind us.”
“That’s right.”
The man nodded and took his steps again.
A little hope appears in his eyes as he still looks at the city as if fascinated.
‘If they were to build a city this size, they wouldn’t treat it so harshly.’
There was strength in the hand carrying the child.

“This way!”
“Hey! In front of there! I lost my luggage!”
“Be careful of the cart! The cart! That thing! It might bump into people!”
There were countless people crowding the small road leading to Hwaeum.
“Go to the back and next!”
The man carrying the child swallowed dryly and approached the tables lined up as if blocking the road at the entrance to the village.
“I… what should I do…”
Everyone was lining up so he had no idea what to do, but even he didn’t know what he was supposed to do .
He just came forward when it was his turn.
The person sitting on the horse raises his head and looks at the man.
“Where are you from?”
“Yes? We are from Hubei…”
“Hubei.” “How many people?”
“…Me, Ansaram, and one young child.”
“One man, one woman, one child.”
The person who quickly wrote the list in fine writing scribbled something on the prepared wooden plaque, stamped his seal on it, and held it out to the man.
“Here it is.”
“Huh? What is this…?”
“This is a plaque that proves that they are refugees. You need it to receive rations, so
don’t lose it and take care of it. If you lose it, come to the top of the galaxy.”
“…Yes? Rationing? Rationing?”
The person sitting in response to the man’s question scratches his head.
“You’ll find out when you get inside. There are a lot of people waiting, so please go in first.”
“Yes? Oh yes!”
“Take another one here! “Three people in one family!”
As soon as the person sitting there shouts, one of the people waiting in the back jumps up and approaches.
“Is it communal?”
“There is a child in the family! In a separate building!”
“Yes! Come this way.”
“Ah! Yes!”
The man follows the lead with bewildered eyes. At the same time, I held the hand of the person inside me tightly with one hand.
“Honey. What on earth is going on?”
“Don’t be scared, I don’t think it’s a bad intention.”
“…Okay.”
When they entered the village, they had planned to find a place to rest and rest, so there was no way for them not to be embarrassed by what happened one after another.
And the further they went, the more embarrassed they became.
‘The road…’
Stone The road was completely paved and paved to a degree that he had never seen before, and there
were large pavilions on either side of the road.
As these were unpainted and unadorned pavilions, their appearance felt even more threatening.
‘This is Hwaeum . ……’
That was when the man decided to come to his senses.
“Come this way.”
“yes.”
The person ahead turned and entered a road slightly smaller than the main street. On the left and right of this road, there were smaller buildings rather than the large pavilions seen earlier.
But it’s just a little smaller than the building I saw earlier. It was the same thing that looked amazing in their eyes.
“Hey… where are we taking?”
“Here!”
“yes?”
At the place where the man arrived, several groups who appeared to be family had arrived first.
“Let’s see. The order now is uh… Ah! It’s here. This is the house.”
“Yes? Home?”
“Yes. You can use the downstairs room. Once you are inside, someone will come and guide you, so please rest for now.”
“Now wait a minute. “What do you mean downstairs?”
“Give me the wooden tablet you received.”
“Yes? “Here.”
“I guess you would have gotten one more than this?”
“It’s here.”
The person who accepted the large wooden tablet held out went to the front and stuck the wooden tablet in front of the door of the accommodation. “
Now, this is your accommodation. Please rest for now.”
“Are you going here?”
The man opened his mouth and looked at the building in front of them.
A three-story wooden building.
“Oh my…”
They dug a hole to live in the rain and wind. It was a magnificent lodging that was suddenly chosen for them who had made up their minds.
