Chronicles Of The Martial God’s Return - Chapter 72
Episode 72
– Dan
Woo-hyeon, who was traveling to Hubei in a carriage, quietly closed his eyes and was silent for several hours.
I don’t even know if I’m sleeping or meditating. However, it doesn’t seem like luck. If you try to fly in a place that shakes like this, it would be no different from saying that you are not human.
‘But why are you suddenly going to Hubei?’
Kwon Moo-jin was most curious about that part.
I heard Namgung-cheon talking about something. However, I didn’t understand the situation well and there were things I couldn’t hear properly because I was distracted by the map.
Kwon Moo-jin cautiously opened his mouth.
“Um… my lord….”
“Tell me.”
After all, I’m not sleeping.
Dan Woo-hyeon, who had his eyes closed, slowly opened them.
Those brightly shining eyes disappeared with a flash of light, but Kwon Moo-jin just smiled awkwardly.
“What on earth are you going to Hubei for? The distance is so far…”
I’ve never been this far before.
Dan Woo-hyeon did not try to escape from the vicinity of the manor as if he were chained.
Of course, there were times when I went far away for work, but most of them returned quickly and never left the Honam region.
But it’s different now.
From Honam to Hubuk.
It’s quite a long journey.
At best, it would take about a month and a half, and of course, depending on what you were doing there, it could take more time.
I wondered if it was something serious enough to waste time leaving Dansomi alone.
“Do you know a person named Geumwangsu?”
“I’ve heard about it…”
Kwon Moo-jin pondered the name Geumwangsu several times. If you’re a person who spends quite a long time in this central area, there’s probably no one who hasn’t heard of that name.
“Isn’t it a nickname that has been passed down for generations?”
“huh?”
“…Didn’t you know that?”
Kwon Moo-jin sighed softly.
The nickname Geumwangsu has been around for a long time.
It first appeared about 200 years ago, and was the name given by the most outstanding thief in the Central Plains at that time.
And as time passed, his disciples inherited Geumwangsu’s nickname and came to this day.
Most people who like old stories will know this much.
“Right. Is it passed down from teacher to student?”
“Yes that’s right. Rumor has it that he passed down his thief skills from person to person. Therefore, the nickname is constantly on people’s lips, but it is said that his appearance changes as time passes.”
So destroying the appearance itself is useless.
If you are a golden king, there is a huge bounty on you. It’s been that way for a long time, but it’s never been caught until now.
The fact that he has the best light attack skills in the central region also plays a part, but if he is likely to be caught, his appearance changes, and the person with that appearance suddenly disappears and is never seen.
Dan Woohyun nodded.
There were so many Gigi directors in this central area that it was not that strange to have such people.
“Is this trip to Hubei… related to Jinwangsu?”
“okay.”
“Ha… I never thought of this. But there is a rumor that he died a few years ago…”
“That has nothing to do with this. “If you have it, it’s good, but if you don’t, it’s just a sightseeing trip.”
Dan Woo-hyeon took out a map and showed it to him.
Kwon Moo-jin, who was staring at it, opened his eyes wide as if he remembered something. A map related to Geumwangsu. Moreover, if Dan Woo-hyeon, not anyone else, moves…
‘Jaebo!’
I wondered if that was a treasure map depicting the treasures of Geumwangsoo, something I had only heard rumors about. Kwon Moo-jin swallowed dry saliva and raised his eyes.
“No way, I only heard about it through rumors…”
“I don’t know what the rumors are, but Namgungcheon said this is where Geumwangsoo’s treasure is hidden.”
If
it is a guarantee from Nam Gung-cheon, and not from anyone else, then it must be true.
The map that many people have been looking for for a long time.
Since the map was full of enough treasures to buy a castle, it made sense that Dan Woo-hyeon would come forward.
Kwon Moo-jin swallowed again. Dan Woo-hyeon looked at it and smiled.
“If you are looking for treasure… I have your own merit, so I will buy you what you want.”
“Thank you, my lord!” “I will never forget this grace for the rest of my life.”
“Haha, you haven’t found it yet.”
“I will do my best to find this person.”
The two people looked into each other’s eyes and nodded.
He was filled with the will to find this and spend his whole life making fun of it, or to obtain a treasure that was the envy of everyone in the middle of the country.
In this respect, we hit it off well.
“By the way, I don’t know if Somi is doing well.”
“That’s right. “It would be empty in such a large place without us…”
Worrying about reporting is a worry.
Dan Woohyun, with his arms crossed, swallowed a small moan. The only people in that large manor are one useless servant and one useless old man.
Although Dansomi is the best among them, I am very worried because she is still young. I wondered if he would cry or look for himself because of lack of confidence, or if he would smile but feel lonely on the inside.
Although we have been apart for a few days, we have never been apart for as long as this time.
Dan Woo-hyeon sighed slightly, turned his head, looked at the coachman, and mumbled.
“I wish I went a little faster.”
Hey!
The carriage drove fast.
A few days have passed since Dan Woo-hyeon left the manor.
At best, the two people simply disappeared, but a different atmosphere than usual enveloped the manor.
Although there were only a few sounds coming from inside, the laughter was really loud.
“Hehehe! “I won!”
“No?”
“Hehehe! “This old man is not dead yet.”
“You’re both wrong! “This Somi won?”
Three people are sitting in the yard playing with small stones. There were lines drawn here and there, and their names were written in a large circle.
Dan So-mi’s circle is the largest and Jang Sam-tae’s circle is the smallest.
At that time, Somi threw the stone again and completely erased Jang Sam-tae and Namgung-cheon’s circle.
In an instant, Jang Sam-tae’s face became contemplative. How many games have we already lost?
“I can’t beat Somi in this fight.”
“Even at school, Somi gets a lot of delicious food from this.”
Dansomi smiled brightly.
It’s a game you play when you’re bored at school. At first, Jiyak waved his hands off because it meant getting his hands dirty, but due to the simple taste that started out as a reckless family affair, he soon reached the level of addiction.
Eventually, it began to spread among children and has now become a trend, and this is what many children do during recess.
“Are you going to get something delicious?”
“yes! Kids say it’s no fun if they just do it, so they bet on this and that. “Sometimes I even earn pocket money.”
Nangong Cheon broke into a cold sweat. At best, it’s a waste of money.
Jureuk –
But after listening to Dansomi’s words, it doesn’t seem like it can be ended simply. There seem to be some kids who bet on snacks, and sometimes there are idiots who bet on money.
Dansomi is smiling brightly and the sun is clear.
With a face like that, you encourage gambling and make money from it.
Nangongcheon seemed to have seen Dansomi’s backside.
Although they were smiling with such bright faces, I thought that they were actually looking at them with a sinister expression on the inside.
‘Is that possible?’
Namgungcheon shook his head, trying hard to erase his thoughts.
“More than that, Somi, will this old man teach you good things other than things like this?”
“…is it a good one?”
Dansomi tilted her head.
Good things? It’s good.
It is a very good and fun game to play.
First of all, since I have never lost to anyone and I can earn snacks and sometimes pocket money, I wondered if there was a better game than this.
As he turned his puzzled gaze, Nam Gung-cheon cleared his throat.
“No merit.”
“no, I do not want.”
Dansomi turned her head and shook her head.
I did learn martial arts. It was a three-jae sword method or something, and it was fun at first, but as time went by, it became physically tiring and mentally very difficult. Since her small and delicate body has muscle pain, an ordinary young girl would have no choice but to avoid it.
On the other hand, Namgungcheon was embarrassed.
It is said that the Emperor of the World will teach you.
It would not be strange for any child to nod their head in surprise and their parents to bow to Nangong Cheon hundreds of times.
Just learning something from Geomwang was like gaining a skill that the martial arts people could not obtain in their entire lives.
“Why on earth do you hate it? “I didn’t even think about it…”
“I don’t like fighting.”
Lantern Lantern –
Dansomi turned her head and looked at Namgungcheon with shining eyes. In addition to her cute appearance, her eyes were sparkling and the sound coming out of her mouth was softer than ever, making my heart pound! I felt like I was sinking down.
Namgungcheon felt dizzy for a moment and turned his head.
It shined so brightly that I couldn’t bear to look at it.
But are you willing to give in to this cuteness?
Don’t underestimate the sword of the world.
Namgungcheon took a deep breath and gathered his mind.
“It’s Somi. Just because you learn martial arts doesn’t mean you’ll be fighting all the time. “Some people want to train their minds, while others want to strengthen their bodies.”
“Is Somi strong?”
“No… make it stronger than that…”
Dansomi thought quietly.
To become stronger than now?
A person came to mind. Jinrang Hong.
I heard that the child had been learning martial arts since he was younger than he is now.
Namgungcheon had said that she would definitely become stronger, so it was not unreasonable for Dansomi to picture herself with sturdy muscles and broad shoulders in her mind.
For an instant, Dan So-mi’s face turned pale.
“I hate poetry. “I absolutely hate it.”
At that moment, Namgungcheon realized that he had made a mistake. Looking at the child’s expression, it seemed like he was thinking about something he didn’t want to think about.
Then suddenly I remembered something good.
“okay! Sohye! “You know Sohye well, right?”
“Of course your sister would know.”
“It’s so pretty, right? “That kid.”
“Um… right.”
Dansomi nodded.
Namgoong Sohye is definitely very pretty. When she walks down the streets of Agyang together, she realizes that men’s eyes are on her.
I was somewhat jealous. Although she is young, Dansomi is also a woman.
“You can do that if you learn martial arts, hehehe!”
“really?!”
Dan So-mi was startled and looked at Nam Gung-cheon.
If I could really become that pretty, I would have no wish. Dan Woo-hyeon will definitely cherish him more than he does now.
When Dansomi asked with bright eyes, Namgungcheon nodded willingly.
“of course!”
“Hehehe.”
Dan So-mi was seen smiling brightly.
Namgung-cheon, who felt that he had now passed, cried out in joy.
Although he was strict when teaching Namgung Sohye, the moment he decided to teach this child more affectionately than ever as a grandfather.
“As expected, it’s okay.”
“what…?”
Dan So-mi, with a bright smile, plunged the dagger into Nangung Cheon’s chest.
“When Somi grows up, she will be prettier than her sister.”
Namgungcheon was greatly disappointed by that bright smile.
However, Dan So-mi laughed as she looked at it and made a low noise.
“But since grandpa is teaching me, Somi, I’ll do my best!”
