Heavenly Inquisition Sword - Chapter 91

Episode 91. They have the same face.

The streets of Luoyang in late autumn were crowded with people.

Yeon Jeokha and Kucheonnodo Shimtong moved nonstop, bumping shoulders with people.

“Where the hell are the ancestors? why doesn’t it look like this Is this the right way?”

Simtong laughed and said at the continuous complaint of Yeonjeokha.

“Hehe, I think I’m almost there. Didn’t the merchant who was selling with Tang earlier say that you can see it right after passing through the guesthouse?”

“I want to eat another one with jjeopdang.”

Simtong looked around, dripping Yeonjeokha’s Dongmunseo answer through one ear.

Then, for a moment, he screamed like a child.

“I found you, Confucius! There he is!”

Yeonjeokha’s eyes followed Shimtong’s wrinkled fingertips.

indeed! About 50 paces away, I saw the signboard of Sangjosangbang.

The thought of meeting Namgung-yeon again after 12 years gives me a new feeling.

I forgot her face, but I was still excited for some reason.

Perhaps because of his nervousness, Yeonjeokha’s steps slowed down as he approached the upper ancestors.

I asked as if I remembered the heartache of walking in line with the slowed-down stride.

“By the way, Gongja. Why did you reject Jeong Gwan-ju’s offer earlier?”

“it’s crazy? Kill people for money?”

“Ah…”

The heartache glanced at Yeonjeokha with new eyes.

I thought I would accept it out of antipathy towards famous schools, but I was a little surprised. I would never have thought that he, who works in Green Forest, would hate contract killings.

Looking back, I don’t think he’s ever killed anyone.

He killed the mighty demon, but at that time he was an immortal monster, not a human, so he was an exception.

Perhaps because there were a lot of people coming in and out, the door to the ancestors room was wide open.

Sohn-hak, who was going out at the right time, stopped when he saw the strange visitors.

Greeting guests is the work of the workers, but seeing the swords hanging from the waist of the old man and the boy, I couldn’t just ignore them.

“What business are you here for?”

Sohn Hak took a step closer to the old man.

Simtong, who received his gaze, took the place of Yeonjeokha.

“I heard that there are people from the Namgung family here. Are they inside?”

“Yes, but… who are you?”

Sohn Hak was the leader of the ancestors, but he lowered his attitude because the opponent was a Moorim.

“Go and tell them that Confucius Qian has come to visit.”

Son Hak felt uncomfortable at Sim Tong’s one-sided words, but he didn’t show it. It wasn’t for a day or two that I saw the rudeness of the Murim people.

“At the same time, I also had something to do with them. Please go with me.”

Sohn Hak took the lead without listening to the other person’s answer.

It was an attempt at a small counterattack.

After going inside for a while, a fairly large hall appeared.

The writing on the board is Suryeogak.

Standing in front of them, Sohn Hak slightly turned his head to check on the visitors and then shouted loudly.

“Are you in Namgung Sohyeop?”

After a while, Namgungcheon, a sword of wind, stuck his head out through the door.

Namgungcheon’s eyes widened as she looked around the visitors and discovered Yeonjeokha.

“Huh! Yeon-ah?”

He hurriedly came out, put on his shoes, and approached Yeonjeokha.

“Hey! How much is this? Did you hear it on the way?”

“Yes, both sides.”

Embarrassed, he scratched his head.

It is because there is not enough friendship between Namgung family and him to search for it.

“Come on, let’s go inside. Yeon-i will be happy when he sees you.”

Namgungcheon put his arm around Yeonjeokha’s shoulder and led him to the palace.

“Anyway, I talked about you with my brother yesterday. It seems that I was going to meet you today, right? I heard that everything in the world has a reason…”

Surprisingly, Namgungcheon did not rest for a moment.

At his fuss, Sim Tong and Son Hak were pushed to the back and had to watch.

When Namgungcheon took Yeonjeokha inside, only Shimtong and Sonhak remained in the yard.

“Didn’t you tell Namgoongse that he had business with people?”

Son Hak belatedly said, “Ah!” and hit my head.

“By the way… don’t you want to go in together?”

Sohn Hak couldn’t understand Namgung-cheon’s behavior, who only took the boy away.

“The Namgung family’s guest is Gongja, not me.”

“Ah yes.”

Sohn Hak replied dryly, then fixed his eyes on the tightly closed hall.

It is true that I came because I had something to say to the Namgung family.

However, I was sorry to call Namgungcheon again when it was not urgent.

After thinking for a moment, Sohnhak bowed to the old man and went back the way he had come.

***

Namgoong-yeon Called Hwa-Yong-Dok-Shim, she opened the door and entered the room.

The moment he saw her face, Yeon Jeok-ha’s face hardened.

ah! How can I forget that look!

This is the fairy I saw in Gucheonhyeonnyeogyeong.

Although I have forgotten the face of Namgoong-yeon whom I met when I was six years old, I remember the fairy from Gucheonhyeonnyeokyung as if I had seen it yesterday.

Somehow, Namgung-yeon in front of me was the same as the fairy who disappeared on a cloud at that time.

“Uh uh…”

Yeon Jeok-ha pointed to Namgung-yeon and stuttered, and Namgung-cheon laughed loudly.

“Puhaha! Yeon Ah, what is ‘uh uh’? If you meet after thirteen years, say hello properly.”

Namgungyeon, who sat down elegantly, gazed at Yeonjeokha across from her.

When I carefully opened it, the face of the six-year-old remained.

I was proud to see that a child who did not know how to distinguish between his mother and older sister had grown up.

You did not die and survived even in such severe abuse.

It was said that he had escaped from the narrow and smelly warehouse and became a green island, but his eyes were still clear.

Just like the day in my childhood when I called myself mom.

I’m glad the eyes didn’t change.

Having a difficult past, he would have resented heaven if he had been tainted by the world.

Namgungyeon laughed because he was grateful and proud of that.

Encouraged by her smile, Yeon Jeok-ha carefully opened his fortune.

“How have you been, sister?”

Nod.

She didn’t even talk to her family unless it was absolutely necessary.

“I lived in a warehouse after my father died. Then he ran away… and met an old beggar. Ah! right. The beggar also gave me a broken gourd. I guess they knew me as a beggar. haha.”

Namgoongyeon listened to his story with her eyes shining.

It was a messy story, but it was good to the eyes as if it was drawn by the days he had lived.

“…I got lost in the mountains and almost died, but my older brothers rescued me at that time.”

Yeon Jeok-ha, who had been making a lot of noise, drank tea as if thirsty.

At that time, Namgungcheon, who was listening quietly, asked curiously.

“You were quite surprised to see Yeon-i earlier, but why did you do that? It is true that Yeon-i is beautiful, but you are the first person to be so surprised.”

“Oh brother. Is that true?”

Yeonjeokha looked at Namgungyeon and Namgungcheon alternately with a puzzled expression.

How can you say, ‘I saw a fairy flying on a cloud in the mirror, and that was Sister Yeon’!

“What is the truth?”

At Namgungcheon’s urging, Yeon Jeokha sighed and said,

“ha! You can’t laugh at my story. In fact, why?”

With a big heart, he confessed that ‘the face of Gu Cheon Hyeon-nyeo in the mirror was the same as Namgung-yeon’.

“….”

Namgungcheon turned his head around to avoid the gaze of the serious enemy enemy.

It is clear that I saw something in vain because I was lonely and having a hard time.

I think it might be like that if you’re confined in a small space for a long time.

Moreover, wasn’t it in the middle of a dreamy childhood?

It must be memories of the days when you couldn’t distinguish between dreams and reality.

“Hum-hum, how did you know that fairy was the sage of Gucheon?”

“Because it was written on the mirror.”

“ah! What is the name of the fairy?”

“yes.”

Namgungcheon shook his head dryly.

Considering what I saw at a young age because my heart was empty, I think I managed to put the front and rear together well.

“There is a saying in the Buddhist scriptures that ‘everything depends on the heart’. Hum hum, you must have seen it because you saw it. Still, what a strange coincidence. To say that the fairy and Yuna were the same? isn’t it? Should I open it?”

At Namgungcheon’s sudden question, Namgungyeon just laughed.

Namgungcheon led the conversation on behalf of the taciturn Namgungyeon.

He didn’t even lose his long-talking rivals.

So, with Namgungyeon in between, they continued chatting nonstop with Namgungcheon.

Namgung-yeon sometimes participated in the conversation between the two with a smile and a simple nod.

The chat, which began in the middle of the day, ended only when the sun was setting.

Yeon Jeok-ha stood up from his seat with a face of regret.

Namgungcheon belatedly asked.

“really! Have you decided where to stay?”

“Not yet. You have arrived now.”

“We plan to move to Jeongju within a few days. Luoyang is too close to the Wolha Church. Please come to Daeyeon Sangbang at a later date.”

“Yes…”

The unexpected words made me feel like I was dating.

After a while, Yeon Jeok-ha and Namgung-cheon and Namgung-yeon’s brother and sister came out to the floor.

Heartache, who had been dozing off while squatting at the end of the floor, jumped up from his seat.

“omg! Were you waiting for old Sim?”

“yes.”

“I should have gone to a nearby bar and had a drink.”

“Heh, it’s fine. I slept soundly for a long time.”

“Foot! Why are you sleeping uncomfortably? When you’re tired, lie down anywhere. Did you grow up precious? Do you cover your bed?”

“no. I thought it would come out soon, it would come out, and then it happened.”

The heartache was a little unfair.

There is no thief in the green forest and no one who covers the bed.

It was a mistake to think that it would end moderately because the alcohol was missing. I get goosebumps when I think of the seemingly endless conversation.

***

Unboxing.

Yong Hee-ru.

It was late at night, but Yonghuiru was noisy with drunken guests and gisaengs laughing.

By the way, was it around the end of the drinking season (9:00 p.m.)?

A drunken guest hit Sohyang, a courtesan, on the head with her fist as she was escorting her to her bedroom.

“evil!”

Sohyang strewn across the hallway floor.

A drunken man in his forties lunged at me like a wild beast and kicked me mercilessly.

pug. puck. puck. puck.

“You fucking bitch! I definitely told you to bring another bitch! But why are you ignoring me! Do you think I’m easy going because I go to a place like this? ok? A bitch selling her body!”

Sohyang, who was struggling, did not even move, as if she had lost her mind.

Still, the man continued to stomp on her, squealing like a madman.

There was already blood on the floor, but his kicks got stronger and stronger.

Surprised, the gisaengs rushed to call escorts.

The first person to come is Wang Bogang, who happened to be passing by.

“Stop!”

Wang Bogang stretched out his hand toward the drunk man’s shoulder.

For a moment, the man slightly twisted his back to avoid it, and then raised his voice.

“what! these guys! Do you conspire with prostitutes to entertain customers? what the fuck are you doing! Master, come out!”

“What nonsense are you talking about?”

The amazing Wang Bogang grabbed the opponent again.

Just then, the man’s hand touched Wang Bogang’s chest like a thunderbolt and then fell.

“Cheak!”

Wang Bogang vomited blood from his mouth and flew back.

It was then that Poong Yeon-cho, who was in charge of guarding Yonghuiru, arrived.

Poongyeoncho, who was looking around the hall, frowned.

The courtesan passed out over the bloody water, and Wang Bogang, who had collapsed, had his eyes closed.

I had never seen such an amazing sight even when I was living as a bandit.

Poongyeoncho looked at the drunk with absurd eyes.

“What are you doing bastard?”

Ma Chun-wu, a seven-year-old man who was putting his foot on the head of a courtesan, smiled and turned his head.
