Episode 1537 It will be fine. (2)
Early in the morning, a guesthouse is rented out entirely by Hwasan and used as a restaurant.
There was a deep silence in the restaurant, which was supposed to be bustling with people.
Rattling. Rattling.
Since it was a place where dozens of people gathered to eat, it was natural that it would be difficult to keep quiet, so only the sound of a spoon hitting the bowl of porridge made an intermittent sound. Even that feels so big that it makes you flinch.
In the suffocating silence, the faces of Lee University disciples gradually turned blue.
‘driving me crazy.’
This is fake. I pretend to be clear.
Even though they are disciples of volcanoes who can chew stones and digest steel, there is no way they can properly digest the food shoved down their throats in this atmosphere.
‘execution.’
‘what?’
‘What about that story?’
‘Are you crazy? ‘What do you say in this atmosphere?’
The disciples of this university exchanged desperate glances, almost with their mouths muttering.
Originally, they had planned to take advantage of this morning’s opportunity and say that their current training was too much.
It’s not just complaining. Because the training was so hard in the run-up to the war, there was often talk that we would be the first to leave before the war.
Jo Geol, who usually listens to and relays these words, has become a little difficult these days as her reputation has grown so much. Isn’t it a one-size-fits-all sword?
So today, I was going to skip Jo Geol and quietly talk to Yoon Jong, who has a good personality….
rattle. Rattling.
The atmosphere at the table where Yoonjong was sitting was unusual.
Five swords, including Yoonjong. To be precise, at the table where the celadon pears are sitting, not even a word of conversation is exchanged other than the occasional sound of a spoon scraping against the porridge bowl.
If you really look at it, it’s a common occurrence.
The extent to which disciples fight or confront each other. What’s even more strange is that there is no friction in gathering all these energetic people in one place and running them around.
Jin-tae, who is currently watching, has fought countless death row criminals so far.
When things got heated, they got into fistfights and even came close to pulling out their swords several times.
So, this phenomenon itself is nothing new, but… it is the first time that Oh-gum and Cheong-myeong are at the center of this coldly intense confrontation.
‘Have you ever been like that?’
No matter how hard I try to remember, I can’t find it.
Of course, Ogum fought a lot too. No, on the contrary, they fought so fiercely that other people did not even dare to attack them by name.
As a joke among the disciples of Yi Dae, it is said that the development of Hwasan is the history of the long struggle of the Five Swords, so what can I say?
But there was no end. If there was a complaint, they would immediately swear and punch, but they are not people who would remain coldly silent.
‘I’m out of breath. really.’
Still, Jintae and others around him are better off.
The guys who sat in Ogum’s seat without even noticing them were just scratching the bottom of the bowl with faces that looked like they were going to faint at any moment.
Jintae was thankful to the gods of heaven and earth that he was not involved there. If he had eaten there, he would have passed out with his eyes closed.
widely.
At that time, Cheongmyeong put down his spoon.
“Ate it all.”
Yoonjong glanced at him and spoke calmly.
“Why don’t you eat some more? “I also need to practice.”
“are you okay. “What are you doing in the morning?”
“okay.”
After saying that, Cheongmyeong got up and left the restaurant.
It was an extremely ordinary conversation. If someone who didn’t know him heard it, he might have thought it was a warm conversation between a priest who had no appetite in the morning and a brother-in-law who was worried about the priest.
However, no one here accepted it that way.
widely.
At that moment, Yoonjong also put down his spoon.
“I go first.”
After a while, I heard the door close. Then, the sound of wind escaping came from all over the restaurant.
It was like proving that the source of the breathtaking atmosphere just moments ago was none other than Cheongmyeong and Yoonjong.
“…Hey, your face is turning blue.”
“The executioner’s face was black and dead.”
“really?”
“It has to be because I’m not breathing.”
Everyone sighed with a look on their faces as if they were about to die.
In that atmosphere, Tang Soso poked Jo Geol’s side and winked.
“what are you doing?”
“…what?”
“Let’s go quickly.”
Jo Geol made an absurd expression.
“No, you will take care of it. “Why are you telling me…”
“Go and see.”
“Keuung…”
Jogeol stood up awkwardly, crumpling his face like a person about to die.
In fact, it is not just because the party office ordered it. Because he too was thinking that we should talk about something.
“execution. “What is it?”
“what?”
Jogeol quickly caught up with Yoonjong and asked him while hugging the back of his head, but the answer he got back was ignorance. Jo Geol frowned.
“Why are you doing that when you’re not even a kid?”
“So what?”
“Don’t be vague and avoid me for no reason. If you fight, just resolve it. “It’s not even a day or two that Cheongmyeong does something ridiculous.”
“….”
“He’s also nervous because he has a lot of work to do due to the current situation, right? “If only you would understand, why are you doing this?”
Yunjong’s steps stopped at those words.
Yunjong opened his mouth without looking back at Jogeol, looking ahead.
“You said we fought….”
“No, that doesn’t mean that my brother-in-law grabbed him and fought with him, but he was unreasonable….” “It
would be better if it was like that.”
“…yes?”
“No need to worry. “It’s not like he or I are hurting each other’s feelings.”
Jo Geol’s face became even more determined. Did we get that far away without fighting?
“What the hell…”
As Jogeol hesitated, Yoonjong spoke calmly with a face that looked as if a needle wouldn’t even go in.
“We just knew that we had different thoughts. “There is nothing wrong.”
“execution.”
“I go first.”
With those words, Jo Geol-man was left dumbfounded.
He seemed frozen and could not move until Yoonjong was far away. I could tell by looking at the executioner’s tightly closed mouth. This isn’t just a petty quarrel. This is serious.
“What is this…”
Not at any other time, but right before war, Yunjong and Cheongmyeong are setting up a confrontation. It’s a big deal.
“driving me crazy.”
Jogeol scratched his head.
“What should I do…”
Mediation is not Jo Geol’s usual role. That was always Yoonjong’s role. However, when the person who had been in charge of mediation became so angry, the solution became unclear.
I know Jo Geol, who has been with me for a long time. Yoonjong is known to be a good person, but the truth is how stubborn he is.
If someone asked him to choose the two most stubborn people in Hwasan, Jo Geol would without hesitation choose Cheongmyeong and Yunjong.
However, the situation is serious because these two people are treating each other like cows and chickens. I had no idea how long it would last.
“Haa….”
Jogeol sighed and turned around until the ground disappeared.
I was planning to meet Baekcheon. The only person who can do anything in this situation is Baekcheon.
“so?”
“yes?”
However, Baekcheon’s reaction upon hearing about the situation was a little… no, a lot different from Jo Geol’s expectations.
“So you’re telling me to chase after two guys who were fighting and mediate?”
Baek Cheon stared at Zhao Jie with indifferent eyes. Jo Geol was speechless for a moment.
“No, that’s not what I meant…”
If you think about it, how absurd is that?
It was just a fight between two great disciples. The only word that can be put in front of that is ‘at best’.
However, I ask you to arbitrate on this matter to someone who is Hwasan’s deputy Jangmun and, on a smaller scale, Sasuk.
Jo Geol scratched the back of his head.
“I know. Well… this may sound absurd. Especially at a time like this.”
Baek-cheon looks at Jo Geol in silence. As if telling me to keep going.
“But Sasuk. “That’s…”
Jogeol sighed, ruffling her curly hair.
“It doesn’t feel like a simple emotional battle. “I don’t know about Cheongmyeong, but Yoonjong’s execution is not that type of person, right?”
Yoonjong is a person recognized by everyone in Hwasan. There is no way he would start a cold war with Cheongmyeong just because he was in a bad mood.
“So… if this goes on for too long, it could become a problem while dealing with what’s going to happen in the future, so Sasuk has to do something…” “Let’s
correct it.”
“yes?”
“First.”
Bai Qian looked at Zhao Jie with a stern face and asked.
“Why do you think Cheongmyeong did something wrong?”
“yes? I didn’t mean that…”
“You said it. Jong-i Yoon is not the kind of person who gets into emotional fights over trivial things. “Then is Cheongmyeong that kind of guy?”
Jo Geol closed his mouth.
no. Of course, I can’t say he was a big-hearted guy, but at least he wasn’t someone who would make a big deal out of something that wasn’t that big of a deal.
If we talk about boldness, he is actually a guy who can be broader than anyone else in Hwasan.
“…I was short-thinking.”
“Neither of them are like that. However, what we are saying is that there are some things we cannot compromise on. “That is not a problem that can be solved through simple mediation.”
Jo Geol bowed his head.
Because he knew that, he came to Baekcheon. However, the answer Baekcheon gave was not much different.
“And the second.”
“Yes, Sasuk.”
“Is that what I should do?”
“yes?”
A little embarrassed, Jo Geol lifted her head from her lowered position. The unexpected words were surprising, but Baekcheon’s cold, frozen face was even more surprising.
“Answer me. “Is this what I’m supposed to do?”
“…Sasuk?”
“This is what happened between two disciples of Lee University. Do I have to go all out and make peace with such matters?”
“Oh no. That’s not the case. However, this cannot simply be seen as the work of a disciple of Lee Dae. “First of all, it is Cheongmyeong’s job.”
Perhaps this is the most important thing in a volcano. It is a conflict between the five swords and no one else.
However, Jo Geol, who was about to say that, paused for a moment and closed her mouth.
I realized it.
The moment you say that, it becomes like claiming that volcanoes are distribution and that only those who come under the name of the Five Swords are the most important.
That was something that a disciple of Hwasan should never say.
Even if that were true.
Jo Geol didn’t know what to do, as if she was embarrassed that her inner thoughts were discovered. Baekcheon, who was staring at the scene, quietly opened his mouth.
“What are you going to do if I can’t do it?”
“yes? “What do you mean…”
“Are you planning on going to see Jang Mun-in?”
Jo Geol flinched. I was so embarrassed that I kept my mouth shut.
“What if that doesn’t work? Are you going to go to Taesangjangmunin and tell him to scold you two?”
I know it means not to talk like a child.
But… why is Baekcheon who says those words so cold?
It was as if he was not the Baekcheon he knew.
“Why are you saying that? I don’t know why you say that. Sasuk is like this….”
“Jogeol.”
“yes?”
Baekcheon looked at Jo Geol coldly… or rather, rather than coldly, he spoke with a heavy face.
“Without me.”
“…yes?”
Just like that, the heavy air pressed down between the two people.
“What are you going to do without me?”
Those short words instantly pierced Jo Geol’s heart mercilessly.
It seemed as if something that had been pressed down for so long was slipping through the cracks.
