Chronicles Of The Martial God’s Return - Chapter 9

Those who do not work should not eat.
Jang Sam-tae was a thief.
Stealing is his job, and he has to do it to earn money to eat. But these days he was obsessed with one thing.
Chi-ik-!
Put oil in an iron pot and fry all kinds of vegetables. Using the strength of your wrist, lightly tap the drumstick so that the vegetables inside are evenly mixed and a delicious aroma is released. In the meantime,
add the meat and add more flavor.
If you fry it a little more.
braided-!
Jangsamtae style stir-fried vegetables and meat is completed.
When I unpacked the rice I had prepared in advance and served it, it was the moment when a table worthy of being taken and sold was completed.
He looked at the prepared food with a satisfied gaze and smiled in satisfaction.
But then…
Boom
“This isn’t it!”
He screamed harshly and hit his head against the pillar.
I realized this for the first time in my life. That he is so good at cooking and that he likes it. But that wasn’t the problem.
Before I knew it, I had completely forgotten my biggest purpose.
It had already been three days since I entered this manor. If you count the time he was knocked out after being hit, five days would have been enough.
It is now time for the female dealer to arrive and wait.
If you are late, you die.
No, if he stayed in this manor, he would never be caught, and even if he found him, he wouldn’t have to worry because Dan Woo-hyeon was there.
But not this.
Jang Sam-tae was a thief by birth. A person whose dream is to steal other people’s things and sell them and use the money to live well and eat well.
You may think that your character is rotten, but wouldn’t it be the dream of any human being to live that comfortably? Who would want to live their life worrying about money?
“Rotten”… Damn it!”
I carefully got out of there, swearing all sorts of things. In a little while, it will be time for Danwoohyun and Hwasomi to eat.
Since the servant and the master were not comfortable with each other, they went back to the kitchen alone and ate the remaining bowl of rice.
Perhaps only then did he come to his senses, but the look in Jang Sam-tae’s eyes was completely different from when he was cooking.
I felt the will to somehow escape from this hell-like place.
Eventually, about the same amount of time passed.
Dan Woo-hyeon’s voice was heard outside.
“Is there any?”
“Oh my Lord Jang! Of course this guy is here.”
Being angry and acting are completely different. Jang Sam-tae was hesitating and bowed down in front of Dan Woo-hyeon. If you show hate to that damn person, no good will come of it.
In times like this, it is best to bow down.
“I plan to go fishing with Somi today. “I’m going a little far away, so take care of the house.”
Flash!
At those words, Jang Sam-tae could not believe his ears. I had to follow him wherever he went and run errands next to him.
But they won’t take you today. Perhaps thanks to the food we had prepared for him over the past few days, his guard seemed to have relaxed a lot. I thought this was an opportunity sent from heaven.
Jang Sam-tae could not bear to cheer and managed his facial expression. Because this person is a poisonous species who can read people’s hearts with just their eyes.
“Hehehe, I understand. Don’t worry, Lord Jang. “This guy will definitely keep the manor clean.”
“…I’ll tell you in advance, but don’t forget. “If you run away, you will have to pay twice that amount.”
“Is that what you said? “There is no way this Jang Sam-tae would disobey Lord Jang’s words.”
Dan Woo-hyeon quietly looked at Jang Sam-tae. Then, the corner of his mouth slowly curled up.
At that moment, Jang Sam-tae felt as if his heart had dropped. It was such a chilling laugh.
“Then please do me a favor. “I warn you again, but…”
“of course! never! “That can’t be possible.”
“Haha, it doesn’t matter if you run away. “You will realize that you are Son Wukong in the palm of Buddha’s hand.”
Ha ha ha ha ha.
Dan Woo-hyeon smiled at the sight of Jang Sam-tae avoiding his eyes and went outside.
Jang Sam-tae, who was watching this blankly, clenched his fist.
The location of the stolen goods has already been determined.
He smiled triumphantly as he watched the two people slowly disappearing.
It was now goodbye to this manor forever.
“But why are you suddenly going fishing? “I thought there was still a lot left to eat?”
As she walked along Dongdong Lake, Hwa So-mi looked puzzled as if she didn’t understand. In fact, there was still a lot of food in the warehouse.
Even if you don’t go fishing, Jang Sam-tae will cook a delicious meal using only the ingredients he has stored.
Didn’t we serve that delicious food this morning with just a few ingredients?
“Haha, it’s no big deal.”
Dan Woo-hyeon, sitting down with a fishing rod in his hand, just laughed. Looking at his expression, it seemed like he had no intention of solving Hwa So-mi’s questions.
The moment Hwa So-mi tilted her head in confusion, Dan Woo-hyeon’s gaze returned.
It was as if he was looking at the manor.
Considering that it was a considerable distance and the trees growing thickly in between, common sense would have it that it was absolutely impossible.
“You went in the end.”
” yes?”
Hwa So-mi’s curiosity grew even more as he heard the unfamiliar words. But Dan Woo-hyeon still didn’t answer, just smiled and patted the child’s head.
He soon quietly stood up from his seat.
“Go fishing for a while. “I’ll do some business and then come back.”
“Are you coming soon?”
“Of course. I don’t think it’s dangerous, but just in case…”
“Okay! ” Are you telling me not to move from this spot?”
“okay.”
Dan Woohyun nodded. Then, he looked as if he were drawing a large circle around where Hwa So-mi was sitting. Check the location of the surrounding bushes and rocks one by one.
I don’t know about this kid, but this area was made up of true laws. It was structured so that not only mountain animals but also people could not see or approach this place.
“Then let’s go.”
“yes! “Somi will catch a lot.”
“Haha, I look forward to it.”
Dan Woo-hyeon moved quickly. The speed was faster than that of a flying arrow, so the distance was shortened in the blink of an eye.
Dan Woo-hyeon, who entered Agyang less than half an angle later, crossed the street.
Considering that it takes about half an hour for an adult man to walk from the manor to this place, he arrived at an incredible speed.
The moment I arrived there, I saw Hong Won-chang coming out of the government office. It was much thinner than when I first saw it.
This seemed to be because he was enjoying a very busy life after recently capturing Changbai Mountain and all his minions.
So I took a step towards Hong Won-chang.
The police officers guarding the area flinched and thrust their spears. He is on guard because he knows that his colleagues were recently killed by Changbai Shan’s subordinates and that even Hong Wenchang is in danger.
“What a guy!”
A police officer shouted loudly and at the same time, Hong Won-chang turned his gaze and opened his mouth wide when he saw Dan Woo-hyeon. It’s loud enough to make you wonder if your jaw is sticking out.
“Heeik’?!”
Hong Wenchang was embarrassed.
Why did that person appear here?
We have already finished our business with each other. He said he had no intention of messing with the manor anymore, so there was no need for them to meet each other.
At that time, Hong Won-chang, who saw Dan Woo-hyeon’s gaze turn to the spear-wielding gunners, shouted.
“You bastards! Don’t clean it up! Clean it up, you bastards!”
The police officers were confused when they heard that sound.
This was because the Hyeonryeong, who had held on to Jangbaeksan and said that there was nothing to be afraid of in the world anymore, was looking at the man with a blanched, tired expression.
The police officer hesitated and quietly put away his spear.
‘Who on earth is that guy?’ Soon Hong Won-chang bowed his head and nodded.
The moment they saw that, the police also opened their mouths.
“Heh… hehe, what’s going on here?”
Dan Woohyun chuckled.
To treat people perfectly, the best way was to imprint them with extreme fear or give them trust.
The faster one was the former, and its effects were now being revealed.
Dan Woo-hyeon smiled while touching his chin.
“I have one case…
Do you want to try it one more time?”
” yes?”
Hong Won-chang was taken aback by the incomprehensible words.
But for some reason, I had faith.

Stolen goods should not be disposed of carelessly.
That was the iron rule of thieves. This is because an unscrupulous fencer creates trouble and the anger eventually comes back to him.
That is why they came to the capital city of Agyang. They
deliberately hid stolen goods in a deserted place near Dongjeong Lake and came to Akyang.
I also knew that the magistrate of this place couldn’t afford to spend money.
It was an important variable that would create a situation in which we could adequately respond to unexpected situations.
Jang Sam-tae looked at the old man in front of him with a nervous expression. This person’s name is Sochuyeom. There are countless dark merchants in the central plains, but there are few who handle them as reliably as this old man.
There wasn’t even a setback at all.
Therefore, Jang Sam-tae deliberately came down to Aeyang to meet Xiao Chu-yan and waited for a long time.
“It’s not more than two million nyang. “It’s too difficult to dispose of this.”
“It’s okay. You can just give me that.
I wasn’t expecting a lot of money anyway. You know that it is such a dangerous stolen item.
In particular, the Buddha statue stolen from the royal palace was a valuable item that would not end with the loss of Jang Sam-tae’s head.
“You managed to survive by stealing these things.”
Jang Sam-tae chuckled without answering. Stealing it was difficult, but getting it back from the manor was several times more difficult.
Actually, I was still a little anxious.
Even now, he had an eerie feeling as if Dan Woo-hyeon was watching him.
However, if that were really the case, Jang Sam-tae was a little relieved because he would have already been caught.
“Anyway, I received it well. “The money is here.
“Thank you/’
Jang Sam-tae checked the slip and gold letter inside the large wrapping cloth. Fortunately, it didn’t seem to be a forgery. Well, you can trust him as he is a very trustworthy person in this regard.
“Please be careful. Recently, Changbaeksan Mountain has been captured, so the government office is on high alert. “Because something big could happen.”
“…You mean that Changbai Mountain?”
“So I was upset. Wasn’t he the greatest thief who commanded the Honam area? “Thanks to this, there is a saying that the prefecture here may soon be promoted to the center.”
“I understand. Don’t worry – even if I get caught, I won’t reveal anything about you.”
“Hehehe, I’m not worried about that.”
“Then I’ll just go.”
The old man nodded willingly.
In fact, the old man did not even pay attention to the man who was about to leave because he was busy checking the golden Buddha statue among the items that Jang Sam-tae had brought with him earlier.
The moment when Jang Sam-tae smiles and turns his back.
Kudadadang-!
Suddenly a loud sound was heard.
” ok?
“What… what is it?”
The sound was coming from below. It was light at first, but it grew louder and
louder, until there were people screaming and all kinds of furniture breaking.
Quadadadang-!
“Big”… we’re in big trouble!”
A tough-looking man hurriedly opened the door and came in. Looking at him dripping with cold sweat, I could guess that something unusual had happened.
“What’s going on!”
The old man suddenly stood up.
“Po…Police!”
“Pozool?! How could they…
“They were everywhere. “It seems like someone snitched on me!”
The expressions of the two people changed. Jang Sam-tae quickly ripped off his collar and covered his face. If his identity was discovered, it wouldn’t end well.
Finally, he rushed out through the window.
“Good luck!”
“Holy shit!”
Although he heard the black merchant swearing, Jang Sam-tae didn’t care. At the moment, his own safety was more important than anything else.
