Childhood Friend of the Zenith - Chapter 223
< Episode 223 > Omen. (9)
Omens. (9)
It’s already a day before the closing.
There was no special schedule because it was a day left.
There were a few things left to do personally.
One is, first of all, about sugar fever.
Since the Yongbong Branch Association and the Bimuje were over, Dang So-yeol had to return to Sacheon.
However, Tang Xiaoyeol was still staying in the Gu family.
Namgoongbia is a special situation.
It seems that I have no intention of going back myself.
Dangsoyeol was a slightly different case.
I asked Dang So-yeol when he was going back.
She gave the answer that she would not go casually.
“Are you not going back?”
“yes.”
“…why?”
“You know.”
I scratched my brow at Dang Soyeol’s words.
He said he wouldn’t go back because of me.
‘Are you serious?’
I’m not talking about whether or not Dang So-yeol’s feelings for me are sincere.
He was talking about whether or not he was thinking of going back to Sacheon.
“It’s not something that comes to mind.”
“Yes?”
That’s right.
I’m watching Dangsoyeol as if I have nothing to say.
She smiles slightly and tells me.
“Actually, I had to go back to Sichuan. I just wanted to stay, but if I stayed, my father might come to visit me.”
“… Lord Danga?”
“Yes, he cares so much…”
Did King Dok personally come to Shanseo and take Tang Xiaoyeol away?
that’s pretty scary
‘The poison king’s love for his daughter was so famous.’
Perhaps the reason why Dang So-yeol, a direct blood relative, was able to work as a soldier without getting married was because of the poisonous king’s snort.
Tangmun also has elders and other upper classes.
The poison king’s power was so strong that it was virtually meaningless.
‘That’s why I wanted Dang So-yeol to go to Sacheon even more.’
How the hell do you mean to be in the old house?
While I was making a puzzled expression, Dang Soyeol smiled and said,
“There are ways, so don’t worry!”
what way…?
“Perhaps your father will like it too. Because it was what I was hoping for.”
“What the hell did you do?”
“I decided to collaborate with the Mo Yongse family.”
” .hmm?
I had to stop to drink tea at Dang So-yeol’s words.
‘Cooperation?’
Collaborating with Mo Yongse family out of the blue .
‘Is there something the two can collaborate on…?’
Dangmun is a place that mainly handles poison and iron.
If we were to select a master craftsman who handled iron in Jungwon right away, most of them belonged to the Tang Dynasty.
Except for the Dark Night Slayer, which is headed by the Dark King.
The assassination squad that works directly under the Moorim Maeng is the only one.
Anti-moyongse going.
It was definitely an inspection, though.
It wasn’t a place that focused only on the sword as much as Namgungse did.
Moyongse makes silk based on the thread of a moth-type monster.
It was making a lot of money by making and selling clothes using it.
Maybe it’s because it’s made with monster thread, so it won’t break easily.
The texture was excellent and I was able to get a high price.
Because only Mo Yong-se knew how to make and create it.
There were few commercial collaborations with other places.
‘But suddenly they collaborated with the party.’
Of course, this never happened in my previous life.
Where can the two families collaborate?
Even the things they make are quite the opposite.
‘The Moyong Sega is doing so well that way… I’d welcome it with both hands if we collaborated.’
If Sega knows the value of silk and clothing.
There was no way he would refuse collaboration with the Moyong family.
Even my father right now.
..
!
!
Didn’t the Mo Yongse family sell their only son on the condition that they would keep industrial bonds in Shanseo?
Of course… I also looked at the terms of the deal and got it.
“I will have to go back to Sacheon for a while because of this, but… I think I will go back while Confucius is gone.”
I’m talking about while I was in the closure.
Two months was a fairly short time to travel to and from Sacheon.
‘Anyway, he says he’s going back, yes.’
Tang Suyeol’s words were that he would eventually return to Shanxi no matter what.
“Collaboration with the party…”
I suddenly thought of starting a business in Shanxi, where there is no particular efficiency let alone collaboration with the party.
Sudden change is still difficult.
‘Does Dang Soyeol intend to use this as an excuse?’
It sounds like you want to use this as an excuse to stay in Shanxi.
It won’t be that easy.
There’s no way that you wouldn’t even know that.
‘Looks like there’s something else.’
Beyond that, it seemed that he had something more to return to Kuga.
I looked at it with eyes wondering if I would dig a little more.
Dang So-yeol, who is quick-witted, speaks first.
“Ah, talking about collaboration. I don’t think even Gongja could do it. Because it’s a contract!”
“… I wasn’t curious.” [I’ve been curious about it until now
, and then
I’m going to poop with my mouth?]
‘Shit?
Is it because the collaboration with Moyong Sega is good?
Unlike Namgoongbya and Wiseolah who suffered from it.
Dang So-yeol didn’t say anything to me.
Rather, it seems that he seems to be in a good mood lately.
“Oh, Gongja-nim.”
I shift my gaze to Dang So-yeol’s call.
It was subtle that her ears blushed and she crouched down as if she was shy.
“It’s nothing else…if you don’t mind, even if it’s the same prefecture…”
Ah.”
The next day, I was going to go to the closing house, so he said that we should go to the prefecture together before then.
There were things after that, but I thought it wouldn’t matter as long as I went back for a while after it was over.
I immediately tried to tell Dang Soyeol to do so.
at that time.
“That…
“Yes.
huh?
It wasn’t me who came up with the answer.
My eyes moved at the same time as Dang So-yeol at the answer I heard from a nearby place.
“…Come with me.”
There, for some reason, stood Bia Namgung, her blue-white hair braided back.
“What are you?”
“huh.?
“Where did you come from?”
“I’ve been training… I’ve come…?”
Only then did Namgungbia’s behavior come into view.
I must have worked hard with the sweaty clothes that showed the lines of my body.
Even the rather warm surrounding air that meshes with my energy.
“It’s just… it’s over…
”
When I saw her breathing and body movements, it seemed that she had come here in a hurry.
It wouldn’t be if it wasn’t you.
Namgoongbia asks me.
“Hyun… are you leaving?”
“Are you going too?”
“Ugh O
Namgung-bia’s answer, I secretly looked at Dang So-yeol.
Sure enough, Dang So-yeol was making a pouty expression as if he didn’t like it.
Seeing that, there was nothing I could do except slightly scratch my cheek.
‘Whoever’s side here will be killed.’
A few survival instincts said so.
I just had to stand still and watch.
[I can’t believe it…]
Since I’m standing there, Noya suddenly shows a surprised reaction.
‘Why is that?’
[I never thought you’d notice that…. My job is to see where the sun rises.] ‘…
‘
Why is this old man always like this?
Put your messy hair behind you.
I told Soyeol Dang and Bia Namgoong.
“It’s good to go out.”
“huh.”
“yes.”
“I’ll go somewhere first.”
The anticipation in his eyes was really burdensome.
In the meantime, when I said that I was going somewhere, Namgung-bi held on to her sleeve lightly as if she was uneasy.
It looked like he wanted to run away again.
“Where…?”
Looking at Namgoong Biah like that, he answered.
“I have to go to jail for a while.”
After hearing my words, Namgung Bi-ah tilts her head and says to me.
“also?”
“”
Again….
It was a slight wound.
With the permission of the father, the head of household. I went to the prison according to the guidance of the general.
The target was, of course, an old man in prison. Even while walking down the aisle
,
snoring can already be heard from far away.
I wish I could find you
The old man lay stretched out on the cold prison floor as if it were a bed.
Q
What is it? Why are you sleeping so well?
“Keukgeukgeuk ….”
He was even grinding his teeth.
“Old man, please wake up.”
“Kkeug…”
He raised his voice and called out to the old man, but he only tossed and turned slightly as if he couldn’t hear him at all.
Looking at it, I whispered quietly.
“.. If you burn your beard, you will wake up.”
“Ugh, the drama…! I’m tired…”
Around the time I wanted to wake him up in a rather unconventional way.
The old man stood up as if he had been listening.
Waking up, the old man looked around and spoke in a tired voice.
“I was sleeping well… but a guest came.”
The old man’s behavior was not much different from when he first met him.
It wasn’t just clothes that were caked and stained with blood and dust.
As much as wearing clean new clothes.
The old man’s gaze turns this way.
“Did you come to tell me you can leave soon?”
It was a pretty shameless statement.
“Sorry, but that’s not my domain.”
“Eh… tsk. Catch an old man, what are you doing to bother him so much?”
The old man was Hao Wenju, who was in the Dark Night Palace. As soon as he was brought to Kuga, he was imprisoned.
I was adapting better than I thought.
I approached the prison bars where the old man was.
“I have something to ask you.”
At my words, the old man straightens his posture with an annoyed expression.
I couldn’t see his face well because his eyes were covered, but I could tell by looking at the corners of his mouth.
It was a really annoying expression.
“I’m going to lock you up here and ask you, but you’ll tell me.”
“What do you keep locked up? You came with your own feet.”
I asked for it out , so I took it out , and if anyone sees it , they will know that I got it .
“If you’re going to save me! I even have to let you go!”
“You’re telling me to give you the liver…?”
Sapa also brought out Hao Munju, but how can the rightist faction tax send it out right away?
I’m just glad I didn’t inform you yet.
“Then when are you going to release it?”
“Why are you asking me that?”
Only my father would know that.
Maybe you’re thinking of not letting it go.
“.. He said he jumped out of the snake’s den, but
he was bitten by a tiger…”
“Your personality is such that you only talk about things.”
“Did the Dark Night Palace keep you locked up there to get something from the elder?”
“Now I’m ignoring the words.”
He looks just like Ji-abi.
I could hear Old Man Muk laughing dejectedly and adding an afterword.
“Do you think I’ll tell you something I didn’t tell you guys?”
If he endured that severe torture and kept his mouth.
There’s no way I’m going to say something so important.
“I’m sure you won’t.”
“Are you asking someone who knows about that?”
“To be precise, I was thinking of doing some business.”
“under.”
At my words, the old man laughed.
In a voice that sounds like it’s full of energy.
“Are you doing business with me?”
“yes.”
“Let’s listen. what were you thinking money? woman?”
“Since I want to hear the information, I’m thinking of going with the information as well.” dragging!
At my words, Hao Wenju laughed even louder.
It seemed to feel very funny.
Hagiya is saying that he will make a deal with the head of the information agency, which is compatible with openness.
must be funny
“You seem to know who I am.”
“I know a little bit.”
“No, you definitely know who I am. It definitely looks like that.”
“What do people who can’t see see?”
“… The way she speaks is much yellower than my sister.”
I could feel Old Man Muk’s eyes looking at me through the bandage tightly hidden by the cloth.
“.. It’s just amazing how light and soft it looks. On the contrary, it looks too heavy and hard.”
“I’m young, so I can’t understand difficult words.”
“I don’t know. should be ah What are you?”
The question is bizarre.
what is it
“As you can see, he is the son of this family.”
The old man was silent for a moment at my plain answer.
dragging He let out a bitter laugh.
“It was a question and answer that wasn’t like poetry. Okay, let’s hear it. What kind of information did you intend to give me as a deal?”
Information coveted by Hao Wenju.
I honestly don’t know much about this.
Not only did I not have much interest in my past life.
Even when Hao Mun was working through the fight with the Dark Night Palace.
I didn’t have much interest in the world, so I just passed on it.
However, he did know something about an incident that occurred in Haomen after this incident.
I don’t know if this is information Hao Wenju covets.
“White Horse Stone.”
at the words that came out of my mouth.
“.. !”
I could see Hao Munju’s shoulders tremble slightly.
The expression that was permeated with a slight smile changed.
The surroundings subside in silence.
It is not because of the change due to betting, but simply because the atmosphere of the elderly has changed.
Seeing that, old man Muk asks me.
“What did you just… say?”
I had to see the old man’s reaction to see if it was smoke or not.
Regarding old Muk’s reaction like that.
I had to keep two possibilities in mind.
‘One possibility is acting.’
The fact that the old man, who must have lived his life telling stories about stars, expressed his surprise so clearly.
Because I had to clearly leave out the possibility of acting.
‘The second thing is that it’s that important.’
The possibility that this information is enough to make the old man show that side.
white horse.
Or a hundred-grade magic stone.
It was a magic stone that could be obtained by killing white-grade monsters that could not be obtained now.
“In case the elders don’t want to know where the White Horse Stone is.”
A white horse hidden under the sea at the northern end of the land.
The guy guarding it was so strong that he couldn’t find it yet.
I knew where the White Horse Stone was.
‘Although I wasn’t the one who found it.’
What I found was Haomen.
Hao Mun took countless sacrifices and a long period of time to find the White Magic Stone, which somehow did not disappear.
succeeded in obtaining this.
and.
‘It was stolen by the Heavenly Demon.’
I don’t know why he needed that magic stone.
The magic stone that Hao Mun possessed passed into the hands of the Heavenly Demon shortly after.
Then he gave it to me as a gift.
I don’t know if the current story can shock Hao Munju.
I hope so.
‘I have no intention of handing it over anyway.’
Even if it gives you information. If you recall the experience of absorbing the white horse stone in your previous life.
I had no intention of handing it over.
Even more so when I recall the strength I gained there.
The old man stays silent without saying a word.
How the hell do I know that, etc.
I don’t know what you’re talking about, etc.
The words that were said to come out right away were all without saying a word.
I’m enduring such an uncomfortable silence for a while.
“…I see. I know now.”
Soon the old man says:
It was as if I realized something.
“You are the owner of the book.”
It was an unexpected and out of the blue word.
“..what?”
