Possessing a Murim Clan’s Youngest Son - Chapter 62

Episode 62. Boy and Girl

“That’s right. I used to come here every year when the pomegranates were in full bloom. “My son used to look at the girl happily eating pomegranates.”

“okay.”

“Every year I visited, the girl became more and more beautiful. “It would be a waste to say that she was truly a peerless beauty.”

“From what you keep saying, I guess you’re very pretty.”

“ha ha ha. yes. Although it is a basic policy, there is no choice but to call pretty things pretty.”

“Well, that’s right.”

“Then, one day, the girl stopped coming. For a while, my son visited alone. He seemed completely lethargic… Oh my!”

“Why are you doing that?”

“I guess I’m drunk. “What kind of nonsense is this when you have guests over?”

Han Ibi said with a bright smile.

“What nonsense. I don’t think so. “I had so much fun listening to it.”

Gu Jeong-deok said with a chuckle.

“Then I’m glad.”

Ebi Han said.

“But where has that pretty girl gone?”

“They said he left.”

“yes?”

“They said he went away to study. “Did I say I was a non-partisan?…”

Tiing.

Han Ibi felt that she was losing her mind.

No way…

“I once said that I also hoped to have a son with that beautiful child. Then my son was startled and waved his hand. He said he had no such thoughts… Moreover, that girl was the daughter of a long-time scholar of the Cheongseong faction, so there was a difference as high as heaven and earth from a miserable situation like ours.”

Han Ibi said while stuttering.

“Ho, by any chance, that girl’s name is…”

Gu Jeong-deok frowned for a moment, thought about it, and then said.

“Well… it’s been so long I can’t remember, but… I heard you said it was a happy song. “I remembered the last name because it was unique.”

That’s right, that’s right….

It’s a repetition.

This old man is talking about repeating the story.

Han Ibi felt her heart pounding subtly.

“okay. “You’re much older than I thought.”

Then Gu Jeong-deok said with a puzzled expression.

“What do you mean?”

“That girl… is already almost 60 years old.”

So this time, Gu Jeong-deok was surprised and asked.

“Do you know that girl?”

Han Ibi nodded and said.

“That’s right. There is only one female disciple of the Qingcheng sect who left to study as a shaman. “This is Elder Bok Yeon-hwa.”

Then Gu Jeong-deok clapped his hands and said.

“Right! okay. The girl’s name was Yeonhwa. “The small cooperatives also knew.”

“That’s right. “Everyone in the Qingcheng faction knows this.”

Then the old man spoke again with a look of regret.

“I see. That’s right… Time has already passed so quickly…”

Han Ibi asked.

“By any chance, what happens to your son’s Hamza?”

“You mean your son’s name? “My son’s name was Gaphwi.”

Tiing.

Han Ibi felt dazed again.

Gu Gap-hwi.

‘If it’s Gu Gap-hwi, isn’t it the execution of the master who was beaten to death miserably after witnessing Tak Bu-yong raping Bok Yeon-hwa… Ah…’ Han Ibi

got up and greeted the old man.

“It turns out that he is Senior Gu’s father.”

Then Gu Jeong-deok’s eyes also opened brightly.

“Do you… know my son?”

Han Ibi said while shaking her head.

“I am not a disciple of the Qingcheng Sect and have never seen him in person, but I have heard him speak a lot. “I just heard people from the Qingcheng faction praising it.”

Only then did Gu Jeong-deok’s expression seem to relax somewhat.

“I guess there are still people in the Cheongseong faction who remember my son.”

Han Ibi said while nodding her head vigorously.

“of course. He was a very great senior. Elder Bok also liked Senior Gu very much. “He was truly cheerful yet serious… it could be said that he was the epitome of a strong hero.”

Then Gu Jeong-deok tilted his head and said.

“Sohyeop is talking as if he just met his son.”

Han Ibi was startled and waved her hands.

“Oh my. Could that be possible? “I’m just telling you what I heard.”

Gu Jeong-deok spoke with the corners of his mouth turning up without realizing it.

“Still, I feel a little relieved to hear that my poor son has been recognized by the Cheongseong faction.”

“Don’t say that. Because he was a ‘really’ great person. “Until the very last moment.”

Gu Jeong-deok’s eyes brightened.

“It’s the last moment. “Sohyeop even saw Gap-hwi die?”

Han Ibi said while waving her hands.

“How old am I? Could that be possible? “I just heard other people talk about it.”

Gu Jeong-deok’s expression became a little fierce.

“The Cheongseong faction said that their son died while doing massage… But although he had been a herbalist for a short time and had only eaten a doctor’s meal for a day or two… the wounds on the body were caused by a one-sided beating. But they… those bastards, without even a word of explanation, told me to believe that he died because of the rain. They didn’t even tell me who they were having sex with…”

Only then did Hanibi feel like all the pieces of the puzzle were falling into place.

I was also able to understand why the old man hated the Qingcheng faction so much.

And why he can’t leave Qingcheng Mountain…

This old man hates the Qingcheng Sect like an enemy, but he doesn’t have the courage to leave Qingcheng Mountain, where everything about him resides.

Han Yi-bi said, feeling very sorry for Gu Jeong-deok.

“Young Master. “Senior Gu passed away while carrying out a very important mission.”

Gu Jeong-deok asked in surprise.

“What do you mean?”

Han Ibi decided to tell a white lie.

“He passed away… while carrying out a very important mission. Although I am not a disciple of the Qingcheng Sect, no one knows more about this matter than me.”

Gu Jeong-deok was so shocked that his whole body trembled and he held Han I-bi’s hands together and said.

“Is that… is that really true?”

“That’s right. Old man. However, since this is a very secret matter… even the Qingcheng Sect would not have been able to tell you straight away. But trust me. He was a hero of the Qingcheng faction until the last moment of his death…”

It’s not a lie.

Because he died for Bok Yeon-hwa, whom he loved deeply in his heart…

Gu Jeong-deok’s shoulders were shaking violently.

Tears were flowing like a waterfall from his eyes.

“That was it… that was that… that was that… indeed my son… that was my son… my son… I miss you….” The

old man cried like a child for a while.

It felt like the regret I had stored deep in my heart exploded.

Han Ibi was just watching the old man in silence.

The old man finally came to his senses and spoke while whimpering.

“Ah… what kind of trick am I taking with guests?”

“What do you mean. “It’s a natural thing.”

“Anyway… thank you… thank you so much… really… thank you.”

“no. “I just told you the facts as they are.”

* * *

The old man shook off Han Ibi’s efforts to dissuade him and went out to the end of the hill to see him farewell.

Han Ibi suddenly asked while looking at the flowers gently swaying in the wind.

“Isn’t that white flower Houttuynia cordata?”

“exactly. “At first, my son planted it as a joke.”

“Just for fun?”

“Like a weed, something that grows anywhere is just like my friend.”

“It looks like you had a close friend. “Was that person also a member of the Qingcheng faction?”

“exactly. Actually, I said he was a priest. Did you say Song Myeong-cheon? “Not long after the woman from Bokga left, the two of them would come visit every year.”

Boom!

I can’t believe it…

I wonder if this is some kind of heavenly trick…

But there’s no need to pretend to know first.

“I see. “It seems like the two of you had a very good relationship.”

At that time, after hearing Song Myeong-cheon’s story, Ibi Han asked something that came to mind.

“Oh, by the way… You might know since you were born here. Do you know a place called Jeolpan Valley?”

Gu Jeong-deok asked with a puzzled look on his face.

“You mean an out-of-print song?”

Jeolpangok was Song Myeong-cheon’s place of training as written in Bok Yeon-hwa’s memorandum.

Han Ibi suddenly wondered if she could discover Master’s whereabouts, so she spontaneously asked.

“yes. “I heard there is a place called Out of Print Valley.”

“Haven’t you already been there?”

“yes?”

“Hasn’t Sohyeop already visited?”

“yes? “What is that…”

“Pa Cheon-ung.”

“Isn’t that bear already dead?”

“The day Sohyeop met Pacheonwoong, the place where Sohyeop came from is ‘Jeolpangok.’”

Han Ibi suddenly turned into ice.

The place he discovered by chance was… where Song Myeong-cheon was training…

‘This can’t be right!’

At that time, Gu Jeong-deok raised his hand and put something into Han Ibi’s hand.

Han Ibi was surprised and looked at her hands.

It was the madwoman who reacted first.

Tiring!

[This is a confirmation of the Herbal Encyclopedia DB.]

Isn’t this the root of Lee Ham Jong-su, whom I had longed for so much?

Ebi Han said.

“No, old man, this is….”

“Sohyeop take this. “It’s my gift.”

“Young Master. “Didn’t you swear that you would not help the Qingcheng people?”

“exactly. “It was like that before.”

“Before?”

“That’s right. Now that Sohyeop has told me the whole story, I am going to cut out the root of that terrible resentment. “Now… I want to live comfortably now.”

The old man looked very relaxed. Peace came to his heart as well.

“Are you sure you don’t mind?”

Gu Jeong-deok nodded with a gentle expression.

“Sohyeop not only saved my life, but also restored the honor of my son in Gucheon…”

Gu Jeongdeok suddenly said while kneeling on the ground.

“This grace of Eun-gong is utterly depressing. “I can’t repay you with anything, so what’s the point of wasting the roots of a tree like this?”

What… then you should have given it to me a long time ago…

“But old man. “Isn’t it a bit expensive to call it something like tree roots?”

Then, bitterness appeared on Gu Jeong-deok’s face. It seems like a bit of a waste.

“Anyway, thank you. I’ll make sure it’s really useful. “I would like to thank you on behalf of my friend.”

Gu Jeong-deok quenched his appetite and tried to turn away.

“Oh! “Young man.”

Gu Jeong-deok asked with a puzzled expression.

“Is there anything else left to do?”

“ah. “It’s not that, but… I want to ask you a favor.”

“Please? “What kind of favor do you want me to ask you…”

Gu Jeong-deok rolled his eyes here and there with an anxious expression.

It seemed like he was worried that he might be asking me to give him more money.

“It’s no big deal. He will probably gladly allow it. “After all, it’s all over the place.”

* * *

Han Yi-bi left the village and quickly climbed Mount Cheongseong.

I was in such a hurry that I couldn’t even see the scenery.

He climbed Mount Cheongseong in an instant, walking quickly when there were people around and displaying light energy when there were no people around.

Finally, in front of Bok Yeon-hwa and So Eun-ri’s dorm.

When I knocked on the door, Bok Yeon-hwa’s fierce face appeared.

“I guess I warned you not to come near here?”

Hanibi said with a smile.

“ah! Elder Bok. I’m sorry for breaking your word. But I couldn’t help but come.”

“What do you mean?”

“I found an antidote.”

“what! “You found the antidote to the dark spirit potion?”

“yes. That’s right. “It is the root of a tree called ‘Lee Hamjongsu.’”

Sigh!

Without a second thought, Yeonhwa Bok stepped back from the door.

Han Ibi went into it as if it were her own home.

Ebi Han said.

“Last time I looked, it looked like there was a place to brew tea.”

“car?”

“yes. Elder. I’ll borrow some from there. “You also need some drinking water. The roots of this plant are very poisonous, so if you don’t take care of them properly, problems may arise.”
