Heavenly Inquisition Sword - Chapter 11
Episode 11. Around the time when the guests of Namgung family , the new family of Mount Obong,
visit Waryongjang.
Yeonjeokha was wandering in Obongsan, far to the south. No, it is more accurate to say that he was on the verge of starvation in Mount Obong.
For him, who had not learned how to live in the world, martial arts were not very helpful. Even if there are beads, it is said that it is a treasure to be threaded! It was a perfect fit for his current situation. If martial arts were marbles, he did not know how to make a living using them.
His condition was not good in many ways.
The gourd obtained from the master of openness in midsummer was very unclean.
I got a stomachache while walking around eating slightly sour food in such a gourd. For several days, there was more going back than going in the mouth.
Eventually, I was so exhausted that I would collapse if someone just brushed past me.
While passing Obongsan with a group of merchants, he soon ran out of stamina. But the busy merchants didn’t care whether the young beggar followed them.
To make matters worse, they lost even their way.
‘It’s a big deal…’
Unlike the first time I ran away from Waryongjang, I’m on my way now, so there’s nothing to be in a hurry. But when it got dark around me, I was afraid.
All I have is a broken gourd, so I’m not afraid of bandits.
What he fears now is wild beasts. If you meet a pack of wolves or wild dogs in a situation where it is difficult to stand properly, you will be eaten.
The exhausted rivalry staggered to a rock that stood out for the first time. It was because he thought it would be better to rest on a rock than in a grassy forest with snakes.
It’s so hard that I regret that I should have stayed in the warehouse.
Yeonjeokha, who was resting while leaning against a large rock, gradually lost consciousness.
Dirty leather shoes touched the younger brother’s head.
However, he lost his strength and could only breathe thinly and could not open his eyes.
The leather shoes muttered as if they were amazing.
“What the fuck. is it a corpse? no? From the wind in the morning, luck will come.”
Janghan, who was watching from behind, giggled.
“Kkeuk! older brother! My youngest said he was tired of cooking and doing laundry. Shall we take it home?”
“You want to pick up a guy who looks out of breath?”
“To live and die is to sell him. Let’s build merit or merit. do you know Thanks to that, our future will bloom.”
“Ugh! his son. You are claiming merit again for having eaten me.”
“Not a little. Even if you look at it like this, I’m a body that has even received the Sami-gye (沙彌戒).”
“Taryeong is one of those who can’t even recite a Buddhist prayer.”
“My teacher said that you only need to be good at ‘Namu Amitabha’.”
The leather shoes that were joking around with the subordinate gently pushed the younger enemy’s shoulder.
The upper body of Yeonjeok-ha, who lost his balance, slid over to one side.
The leather shoes jumped back and made a fuss.
“Oops! Fuck! Looks like you’re already behind It looks like a child who died of starvation.”
“really?”
Tubseokbeak approached meekly.
He put the back of his hand on Yeonjeokha’s nose and glanced back at Poongyeoncho, the leader of the leather shoes.
“Aren’t you dead? What should I do?”
Poongyeoncho asked, twisting the beard under his chin.
“How many people are there in our family?”
“Six.”
“If you add one more spoon, you won’t go bankrupt, right?”
“Looking at the gourd hanging from his waist, he looks like a fucking guy. I will eat as much as I can.”
“Oops! let’s take It’s the first time I’ve ever seen a kid worse off than us.”
“You thought well. Because these are all virtues.”
Tak Go-myeong, a strong and powerful assistant, wrapped the Yeonjeok-ha around his shoulder with the sound of struggling.
***
Yeonjeokha’s eyes turned to the distant sky.
Gucheonhyeonnyeo, who was flying on a cloud, looked back and smiled brightly.
“Fairy?”
Suddenly, a loud voice was heard.
“You sounded like a fairy and fell asleep. From today, follow the 6th and learn to live. Got it?”
Yeonjeokha rubbed his eyes and raised his upper body.
Poongyeoncho, the boss, was squatting right next to him and grabbing his teeth.
It must have been a dream to see Gucheonhyeonnyeo.
“What? Won’t you answer me?”
“…yes.”
Poongyeoncho frowned at the delayed answer.
“Slow down. So, when are you going to do one person’s share? It looks like it came out fine.”
Yeonjeokha scratched his head.
For the past three days, the thieves in the living room took care of themselves while grumbling. If it weren’t for them, I would have already been eaten by wild beasts and come out as shit. That’s why I didn’t worry when I asked, ‘Shall we live together?’
“Honey, if you decide to be part of our family, you have to work hard. You shouldn’t be lazy because of your fucking habit. Do you know what I mean?”
Poongyeoncho was subtly concerned about that.
Fucking bastards have become a habit of playing and eating, so they don’t want to work well. That bastard I barely kept alive to do chores would really go crazy.
Poong Yeon-cho, who had been looking at Yeonjeok-ha with suspicious eyes, stood up from her seat as if it was not going to work.
“Look at me.”
“yes.”
I followed the back of the pungyeoncho that was in the middle of the day.
Sanchae was located in a secret place in the middle of Obongsan Mountain.
Poongyeoncho climbed up on a large rock and stood tall.
“Maknae, there are only two types of people in this world. The one who steals and the one who takes away. Which one do you want to be?”
“…a stealer.”
A spirit flashed in the eyes of Yeon Jeok-ha, who was standing in the dark.
Until now, he had only been robbed. Persecution by stepmother and half-brothers, and a narrow, stinky warehouse…
“Yes, with that mindset, you can become a great bandit.”
A satisfied smile appeared on Poongyeoncho’s face.
I was worried because I didn’t have a young hawk, but I think that’s enough to use.
Before long, Poongyeoncho pointed to the surroundings with her finger.
“From the first peak on the left over there to the fifth peak in front of you is our land. Is it very wide?”
“yes.”
“To protect this vast land, all the older brothers have to run and run around. All six older brothers above you have to work outside. Since you are in poor health, you must work hard at home, right?”
“yes.”
“Oh that bastard! You only know yes and yes, so say something from the heart.”
“yes.”
“Oops! seed bee. Get sick or die.”
Poongyeoncho, who shook her head, spoke in succession.
“Anyway, while the hyungs are out at work, you have to cook and do the laundry. If the housework isn’t done, the older brothers can’t do the outside work either. Do you know what will happen then?”
“no.”
“I don’t know?”
“yes.”
Poongyeoncho hit the back of Yeonjeokha’s head with a click.
“You don’t know what, you bastard. You’re starving. Heroes all over the world will laugh at us if we goof around. fuck! Do you want to live a life of being ignored and being ignored?”
“no!”
For the first time, the voice of Yeonjeokha gained strength.
I hate being ignored by others. I really hate it. The stepmother and half-brothers who cursed every day, even the children who threw stones. The more I think about it, the more my teeth grind.
In response to the poisonous Yeonjeokha’s reaction, Poongyeoncho patted his shoulders proudly.
“Yeah kid. That’s it. In Obongsan, we are the kings. No one should ignore us. All these bastards should be beaten to death. Follow me. We are the best!”
“…we are the best.”
The voice of Yeon Jeok-ha, who had not yet become a bandit, was difficult to understand even from the side.
At that time, Poongyeoncho spread its arms and roared like a madman.
“Fuck! We are the best!”
“…”
For the first time in my life, I felt a thrill.
It was as if something in her chest, which had been hardened up until now, had cracked. Then, a bolt of lightning penetrated from the top of his head to his heel.
ah!
Is it the full feeling of being a part of Obong Mountain?
As a member of Sanchae, a desire to live a new life arose.
When my mind opened up, Gucheongi, who had been sleeping in the danteon, came up with his stomach.
Like a rival boss, he spread his arms wide and screamed.
“Fuck! We are the best!”
The cloud and fog parted, but I couldn’t see the windmill that was picking up the ear that had just become deaf.
‘omg! This guy’s voice is one of a kind.’
Poong Yeon-cho, who lived as a slash-and-burn farmer and got Bakdo instead of a homi, does not know the inner skills. It’s just amazing that the voice of a beggar picked up from under the mountain is loud.
***
Yeonjeokha, who was wandering and begging, took a seat on Mount Obong and sat down. There was no objection to becoming a bandit after learning morality by writing anyway.
He was raised like a dog in a shamanic family of a political faction, but it was a bandit who saved him from dying. As a result, the boundary between right and wrong naturally collapsed.
For the first few months, he took over the chores of his sixth older brother.
That side was better for each other.
This was because the bandits needed someone to do the chores, and Yeonjeokha didn’t have the will to cut anyone else’s body yet.
Life in Sanchae was the same every day.
The older brothers, who left the mountain house late after breakfast, returned when the sun began to set.
In the hands of the older brothers who went out with only one clumsy gourd, they were carrying a backpack or a bundle of money.
Not so lucky all the time.
There are many days when the older brothers came back covered in blood.
Still, it was enough to earn enough for the seven of us to enjoy drinking and dancing in a small way.
Even after the hot summer, cool autumn has arrived.
It has been three months since Yeon Jeok-ha, who ran away from home, entered Obongsan Mountain.
Little by little, the younger brother’s mouth, which had been taciturn like an old man, became lighter.
I am accustomed to doing kitchen work, so one meal (about 30 minutes) is enough.
After quickly preparing dinner, Yeonjeokha practiced his swordsmanship in the backyard as always.
shhh. shhhh.
Although it is only a roughly trimmed stick, the sound of the wind cutting is unusual.
The stick containing the energy of the Gucheongi looks heavy like a wad of iron.
The serial killer repeated the slashing and slashing action hundreds of times.
After that, as his body seemed to relax a little, this time, he quickly opened the ‘Gucheonseibeop’ and ‘Gucheongugum’.
whirling.
Fallen leaves in the yard were sucked into Yeonjeokha’s body.
As time passed, his body was hidden from view by the winding leaves.
A soft light flashed through the fallen leaves.
After a while, he performed Neungun Soyo (playing on a cloud), the last herbivore of Gucheongugum.
Yeonjeokha took a step into the air.
The fallen leaves that were spinning around his body lay under his feet like clouds.
For an instant, his body stepped on the fallen leaves and stood tall in the air.
Like the fairy flying on the clouds that briefly appeared in Gucheonhyeonnyeogyeong.
The moment his body is about to soar into the sky.
With a thump, the fallen leaves scattered and the body of Yeonjeok-ha fell to the ground.
Coudantang.
Fallen leaves fell on his sprawled body.
“Queuck!”
He giggled for a long time because it was funny to see himself covered in falling leaves.
It seems that imitating a fairy is still unreasonable.
He sat cross-legged and controlled his breathing according to the teachings of the Gucheonyeoiljingyeong.
The infested gut air quickly subsided.
Until the older brothers returned, he practiced the nine-thousand-year-old Jin-gyeong without a break.
One day, the day will come when I will fly high in the sky like Gucheonhyeonnyeo. It’s an innocent imagination, but that’s all I could think of so far.
