Heavenly Inquisition Sword - Chapter 4

4 times. keep you Got it?

Just looking at the narrow and shady dog hole warms the heart. Because I know how peaceful the world beyond is.

Although it is a short time, the outside world gives freedom and peace.

He hesitated in front of the mating dog hole.

My aunt told me not to make trouble because an important guest is here today.

The weak-minded couple circled around the dog hole.

Yeonjeokha, who continued to walk in one direction, felt dizzy and turned around.

thud.

As he took a step inadvertently, he bumped into someone.

“…”

Yeonjeokha’s eyes widened.

My older sister came as a guest.

A pretty older sister named Namgung-yeon was staring at him with an angry face.

I was trying to make an excuse, but my surprised heart first jumped like crazy.

“Uh… Uh…”

I suddenly remembered my aunt’s warning not to speak belatedly.

He kept his mouth shut and brushed past Namgung-yeon.

But things did not go his way.

When Yeon Jeok-ha, who is the same as his younger brother, tried to pass by without a proper apology, Namgung-yeon reached out his hand.

In an instant, the serial enemy who was grabbed by the shoulder fell backwards.

Iron flip.

The enemy who fell to the ground did not groan.

Trouble has already happened, so I decided not to make any noise. That way, my aunt is less upset. Less soul hurts less.

Every time my aunt pinches and pokes it with her fingers, it seems that the flesh falls off.

Compared to that, Namgung-yeon’s touch was tolerable.

On the other hand, Namgung-yeon was even more surprised to see Yeonjeok-ha, who fell at his light gesture.

‘It’s too light.’

Dad clearly said that Waryongjang had as much Jeolhak as Namgungse.

So, I guess I had power in my hands without even realizing it.

But the child was far from martial arts. Even considering that he was still six years old, he was extremely lethargic.

Children of the shaman family begin martial arts around the age of six. He did too. So I thought Yeonjeokha would survive to some extent. But he seemed weaker than normal children.

It’s not just a physical feeling.

Like a puppy or a chick who are mentally connected, they didn’t do anything to protect themselves. Even if you didn’t learn martial arts, you should instinctively endure it, but you didn’t.

Although he built a wall with the world, the intelligent Namgung-yeon tilted his head.

The child under the eyes was like a bug that would die easily if pressed with a fingernail.

A small bug with no will to resist.

Are all the children of Waryongjang like this?

When I thought about it, it seems that this child’s siblings were stronger than ordinary children. Only this child was weak and his eyes were dead.

‘aha!’

In Namgungyeon’s eyes, Lee Chae was young.

This little boy is the son of a little aunt who died in childbirth six years ago.

Unknowingly, Namgungyeon reached out and grabbed Yeonjeokha.

As expected, the child was dragged along without resistance. It’s like a wooden doll.

Namgungyeon turned Yeonjeokha and stared into his eyes.

His eyes were cloudy, unlike a child’s, and they swayed like candles in the wind.

Suddenly, Namgungyeon’s fist flew into Yeonjeokha’s face.

puck.

The young man’s face turned to one side.

My lips were cracked and blood gushed out.

….

Neither the one who was hit nor the one who was beaten said anything.

Namgung-yeon’s fine armies frowned.

Don’t cry even if you bleed?

“joy!”

Along with the cynicism, Namgoongyeon used his hand more boldly.

He raised his index and middle fingers and stabbed his sister-in-law’s eyes.

It was a cruel trick that even adults rarely use.

But surprisingly, he neither avoided nor closed his eyes.

He just stared blankly at the fingers coming to hurt him.

Took.

Namgungyeon hurriedly turned around and stabbed Yeonjeokha’s eyebrows.

His lifeless eyes blinked several times as if surprised by the strong stimulation.

“iced coffee!”

The first sound came out of Namgoongyeon’s mouth.

Surprisingly, even when he is only six years old, he does not cry out loud even when he is in pain.

It even seems to be accustomed to suffering.

He accepts all kinds of persecution inflicted on him as if it were taken for granted, like a cow brought to a slaughterhouse. Even if it resulted in fatal injuries…

Namgung-yeon slowly rolled up the child’s arm sleeves that reached the back of his hand. The tender flesh on the inside of his elbow had turned black with blood bruises.

Verification is over.

Namgungyeon suddenly stroked Yeonjeokha’s hair with a soft hand.

Like a kitten mating in love, I placed my head in Namgoongyeon’s caress and closed my eyes.

Moments later, Namgoongyeon grabbed Yeonjeokha’s head with both hands.

Then he fixed the child’s face in front of himself.

….

For a long time, Namgung-yeon just stared at Yeonjeok-ha.

keep you

Got it?

Namgoong-yeon spoke continuously with his heart.

Did that kind of wind come through?

Having gained courage, Yeon Jeok-ha opened his mouth.

“Mom…”

The voice of the mother came out inadvertently in the warmth she felt for the first time in her life.

Namgungyeon shook his head.

she is not his mother The child doesn’t seem to know who the mother is.

Then, Yeon Jeok-ha lowered his head with a face that looked like he was going to cry.

Namgungyeon quietly embraced the young enemy.

Tears welled up in the younger brother’s eyes.

Soon after, tears rolled down and dripped onto Namgoongyeon’s forearm.

Namgungyeon wiped away the tears of the younger brother with the hem of his clothes.

Is it because you know that the other person is for you?

This time, Yeon Jeok-ha held Nam Gung-yeon’s hand.

and went somewhere

The place Yeonjeokha is heading now is the dog hole.

He wanted to show his own Shincheonji to the kind Namgung-yeon.

Having reached the front of the dog’s hole, the pair thrust their heads in without hesitation.

The two small feet under the rope wriggled away.

Namgungyeon, biting his lip and hesitating, crawled into the dog hole before the two legs of the younger brother disappeared.

***

The story between adults that started during the day did not end easily until around sunset. It is because Mi-joo Baek suddenly brought up the story of marriage at the end of the conversation.

Jang Ha-eun, the wife of Namgung Byeok, was taken aback, but did not show it and looked at her husband’s expression.

Namgung Byeok smiled broadly and expressed his welcome.

“Puhaha! Mr. Jesu is right. If it’s the younger brother’s child, it’s trustworthy. I will not object.”

Baek Mi-joo’s eyes widened as she spoke in a way that she didn’t expect to poke her. I couldn’t believe that the family head of the Namgung family would accept that absurd proposal!

“Are you really me?”

“Heh heh! It’s really true. Waryongjang is more than enough to be the son-in-law of the Namgung family. What is your brother’s opinion? Do you want to be my brother-in-law too?”

But, unexpectedly, Yeonmu-ryong shook his head.

“No bro. I don’t want to put that burden on my brother. And I want to leave the marriage issue to the children themselves.”

Baek Mi-joo’s face went white.

Even if you put your nose in the finished rice, you will get oily water!

“Oh no, what do you mean? It is only natural that the marriage of a child is decided by the parents.”

However, for some reason, Yeonmu-ryong did not yield.

“That’s not going to happen. Children’s lives are not their parents’. I want my children to choose their own spouses.”

“What are you saying right now…”

Baek Mi-joo glared at her husband with burning blue eyes.

The person who decided to marry Yeon Moo-ryong was the oldest member of the Yeon family. Until the day before the wedding, Mu-Ryong Yeon and himself didn’t even know each other’s faces.

Could Yeon Mu-ryong be saying that he regrets his marriage?

My teeth were grinding, and my face flushed hot.

‘I’m working so hard for the Yeon family… How can you…’

Namgung Byeok quickly turned around when the atmosphere between the couple was not normal.

“haha! Both of you make sense. What if it was your brother?”

“how?”

“If the children of both families like each other, let’s get them married. I think that’s all of the wishes of my sister and Mr. Jesu. How is it?”

“If that’s the case, I’m not against it. Rather, at that time, Soje will hold on to his brother’s crotch and hang on.”

“Ho Ho! From what I can see, it’s a judgment call. Brother, would that be good?”

At Jang Ha-eun’s question, Baek Mi-joo swallowed Bunru and had to step back. I laughed as if nothing was wrong, but I felt bitter inside. This is because, in the end, it is said that they will not marry.

“It’s hard to say instead, but I have something to ask of you, father.”

At Baek Mi-joo’s words, Namgung Byeok smiled softly and met his gaze.

“Please speak comfortably.”

“I asked you to guide our Mubaek at Namgung Family.”

“Your eldest nephew?”

Namgung Byeok looked at Yeonmu-ryong with a puzzled expression.

The Yeon clan also has a martial art of rising, but I don’t know why they want to send it to themselves. Besides, isn’t that a matter for the head of Waryongjang to decide?

However, unexpected things happened one after another.

Yeonmu-ryong nodded his head with a nonchalant face.

“If it doesn’t bother Namgung Segawa hyung, I’d like to ask too.”

“Okay.”

Namgung Byeok nodded without hesitation.

There must be a reason for the prudent Yeonmu-ryong to make such a request.

In addition, he was curious about the Yeon family’s Gucheongeom himself.

Entrusting Mubaek, the eldest son of Waryongjang, to the Namgung family meant that the two families would exchange martial arts, so it was not a loss.

“Are you really going to be okay?”

Because it was such a serious matter, Namgung Byeok had to ask it again. Even if the secrets of both families are not communicated to each other, it is not a matter to be decided lightly.

Moreover, in this case, it was more advantageous for the Namgung family than for Waryongjang. While Mubaek Yeon is now a 14-year-old child, he is a master of the extreme who can infer ten by looking at one.

“Yes, I would like you to take me with you when you go to Wudang Mountain.”

“Is there any reason to be in such a hurry?”

“I will tell you separately.”

At Yeonmubaek’s words, Namgungbyeok silently nodded.

Baek Mi-joo glanced at Yeonmu-ryong with love-hate eyes.

‘What is Yii up to?’

After breaking the engagement, Mubaek, as if he still had a conscience, said that he would send her to the Namgung family. Out of anger, he asked for it directly rather than through his husband, but it was strange that he did not object to his upright personality.

***

Waryongjang turned upside down in the evening.

This is because the adults of both families found out about the disappearance of Yeon Jeok-ha and Namgung-yeon. The warriors who stood guard were even punished with a pay cut.

Soon after, the warriors of Waryongjang and Changchundae ran around ten li near Waryongjang like rats.

Eventually, the two children were found in the village market.

The two children who were sent to Waryongjang were called out in front of Yeonmu-ryong and Namgung Byeok.

Surprised, Namgung Byeok scolded him severely.

“These guys! Didn’t the adults tell you not to leave the manor!”

“….”

The head of the surprised young enemy shrank like a turtle.

However, Namgoongyeon did not. She stared at the South Palace wall with a nonchalant face. No, in a way, he seemed rather angry.
