Childhood Friend of the Zenith - Chapter 224
< Episode 224 > Omen. (10)
Omen (10).
After coming out of prison, the sunset was slowly setting.
The conversation with Hao Munju wasn’t very long.
Right after I brought up the story of the White Magic Stone, the story flowed like water.
At the end of the conversation, I achieved what I wanted.
I did a good job of finishing it so that there was no back talk.
‘why.’
On the contrary, it was a situation that caused a lot of trouble.
-You are the owner of the old book.
Old Muk obviously looked at me and said that.
Could that be the starting point?
Old Man Muk, who spat out the words, showed a sunken expression and gave me the answer I wanted.
!
.
-The princess is looking for the door.
What kind of strange thing happened that he was so squeamish, and then he talked meekly again this time.
Looking at the old man like that, I asked again.
-Do you mean…?
-Yes, the princess is looking for the door to the upper heaven.
Sangcheon.
I had to flinch at the words of old man Muk.
Sangcheon is the third demon scene opened in Jungwon.
It was a place I had visited numerous times in my previous life.
That would also be true, because the Demonic Lands of Sangcheon was a world where the Heavenly Demons often visited.
Although the headquarters of the Demonic Cult were located in Xinjiang.
Most of the places where the Heavenly Demon stayed were the Demonic Lands of the Heavens.
Having come to that point, I had to think about the old man’s words.
‘Why?’
If old man Muk is right.
Why is the palace owner looking for the door to Sangcheon?
also.
Conversely, is he trying to find out about this by torturing Old Man Muk, the owner of Hao Mun?
-It must be because only I know where to go to Sangcheon.
– Only the elderly know?
-okay.
It was an incomprehensible story.
There are a total of four known doors to the Demonic Realm.
A demon gate that rips through the air and ejects monsters.
It just spits out monsters, but it can’t go in the other way.
Of course, there are occasional cases where an abnormality occurs and the demon gates eat humans.
This is just a very rare occurrence.
Except for the long time passing on the front line and the constant spitting out monsters without closing.
Jincheon, Taecheon, Sangcheon, Gwicheon, etc.
There were a total of four doors leading to the Demonic Realm.
‘ .Even though it’s six if you have to.’
Another demonic world unknown to the public.
The Devil’s Eye, which was sucked in thanks to Jang Seon-yeon’s behavior in her previous life, is one of them.
But that had to be out of the question.
It was close to the world that was created in the first place.
After all, there are four doors to the demonic world that exist in the world.
and.
Most of these four gates are directly managed by great powers.
Even the Murim Mengman not only manages the gates to Taecheon and Jincheon.
Sangcheon and Gwicheon are also blocking other forces from entering and exiting.
I mean.
Even if you don’t bother to find out where Sangcheon is, it’s known to Jungwon.
‘Why did Old Man Muk say that only he knew the information about Sangcheon?’
Not to mention, the Lord of the Dark Night also kidnapped the old man Muk for this purpose.
It was too clumsy to believe the words carelessly.
-The Sangcheon known to the Jungwon is not real.
– Not real?
-Yeah…. If you know what’s there, you can’t take it lightly unless it’s an abomination.
The old man said so.
‘What do you mean that?’
This, too, was unbelievable.
Even more so when you consider the identity of the old man.
‘Why is such an old man suddenly doing this to me?’
Just before he got out of prison, he bit his lip remembering the old man’s attitude.
– I don’t care if you believe me or not. If you’re really the owner, you’ll find out anyway.
You’ll find out anyway.
It’s the word I hate the most.
If you’re going to find out anyway, would it be better if you tell me?
-What do you mean I am the owner of something? Please tell me so that I can understand.
When I asked with a frown, Old Man Muk was silent for a moment and then extended his palm to me.
I’m looking at you wondering what the heck this is doing.
—…!
A gentle energy bloomed on Old Man Muk’s shoulder.
Soon, energy begins to gather on the palm of your hand.
– What is that…
Then it gradually changed into the shape of an object.
– how?
Right now, old man Muk, like Gu Hee-bi, is in a state where he can’t bet because of magic.
It is normal that not only Goo Hee-bi, but even the swordsman of the world cannot bet if they are tied to the evil spirit.
It was just strange that he was doing something with energy like that.
‘Isn’t this a bet?’
I don’t think it’s Maggie.
It didn’t seem like blood either.
Putting my strangeness behind, my energy had finally become something whole.
I don’t know what it’s for.
If I had to ask, it would be close to a seal.
As I was looking at it with surprised eyes, the old man said to me.
– If you’re curious, take it.
– Do I mean this?
– okay.
– What is this and are you handing it to me?
– You’ll have to look for that.
– yes?
What is this old man talking about now?
The corners of Old Man Muk’s mouth go up slightly as I look at him as if I’m not looking at him.
– I gave you this far, so are you asking me to scoop it up? If you are a man, you have to live proactively.
– What are you talking about all of a sudden? This is a deal….
– A deal…. More than the white horse you said.
– .yes.
– Yes, I need it. I needed a white horse….
Why do I know about the White Horse Stone?
How much more, did you know you would need this and spit out the words after making a deal?
The old man did not ask me.
It was a reaction as if there was no need for that.
– One is no longer needed.
-yes?
-Therefore, there are white horse stones and white gold stones. Pick them up yourself and use them all.
I originally intended to do that, but. Rather, I was just embarrassed to hear the old man say that.
Even that was the end.
to believe in words.
Also looking for this.
As if it was my job. The old man turned off his mind.
I even finished talking and lay down on the floor like before, getting ready to go to sleep.
– .Are you elderly?
What are you sleeping like this? really?
-We haven’t finished talking yet….
-I’ve said everything I want to tell you. Do what’s left.
– Spit out all the words and take care of it. How irresponsible is that?
-I’m going to shit with my mouth, so you have to take responsibility?
I will turn
This person has a strange feeling.
If I had to argue, it was similar to the people close to Elder Lee….
Ah.
– Elderly.
– Just a little bit….
– Are you close with Elder Lee by any chance?
At my words, the old man shut his mouth.
What an uncomfortable silence.
— I feel bad. You say you’re friends with that ignorant guy?
– You’re friendly.
– Didn’t you say you weren’t close!
I like this
What the hell did Elder Lee do outside, did everyone he knew feel this way?
Somehow, since the last time I asked Elder Lee if he knew anything, the reaction was serious, and then
Old Man Muk stretched out as if he didn’t want to talk anymore and started snoring quietly.
He really didn’t seem to want to talk anymore.
By the time I wonder if I should leave this behind.
– ah.
Old Man Muk, who had been snoring to his heart’s content, suddenly raised his upper body and looked at me and said,
– When you go, tell your father that I need to see his face because I have something to do.
It was a normal voice, as if he had fallen asleep.
– And don’t lose it and take good care of it. Is it expensive that you can’t get it anywhere?
At the old man’s words, I looked at the seal in my hand.
To say it was expensive, rust and cracks here and there were full of traces of the years.
– What the hell are you doing…
– Growling.
Seriously, I thought about burning my hair, not my eyebrows.
I barely endured it.
After that, I looked at the old man who stayed quietly.
After telling the governor what old man Muk asked for, he left the prison.
Along with a request to the old man for my work today not to put rice in it.
and present.
I had something to say to Dang So-yeol and Namgoong Bi-ah, so I immediately went to the prefecture.
It’s a street I’ve always seen, and recently I’ve been out often with Wi Seol-ah, so there was nothing special about it.
From my point of view, I just walk roughly because the people following me seem to like it.
The problem came to Jakhyun, so I took a back seat and the three of us were walking together.
“sister! There… over there!”
“Look at that one too!”
Is it because three people came out in a row?
Above, Seol-ah looked particularly excited.
Thanks to that, Dang Soyeol and Namgoongbia were being dragged around with very tired expressions.
I see the appearance of such women.
[Why didn’t you ask more?]
Shin Noya asked me.
‘Are you talking about the old man Muk?’
[okay. If you wanted to ask more, you could have asked more.]
That’s right.
Whether it’s the mysterious word old book or why Haomen has something different about the Gate of Heaven.
[Then why didn’t you ask?]
‘…’
I had no choice but to keep my mouth shut at Noya’s question.
It’s not because it’s something I can’t answer.
It was because I felt like I had to do that for some reason.
It’s an unknown feeling that you shouldn’t ask anymore.
‘.. Did Hao Wenju do something to me?’
Perhaps.
He was a person who was able to use unknown powers even when betting was blocked due to magic.
one.
‘I don’t think so.’
I thought I wouldn’t feel it.
In the first place , it was strange that an old man who could use such abilities was calmly locked in a prison .
[…Can you believe that you made something with your energy?]
‘I have no choice but to believe it because I did it right in front of my eyes.’
Besides, in this life, I went through so many nonsensical things that I became somewhat indifferent.
A talking snake the size of a house.
The fact that there was a ghost inside the ghost.
He was a talking carp and…
he had been through all sorts of things, so he wasn’t really surprised by things like this.
‘In the first place, even returning, what could be more mysterious?’
Seriously, that was the problem.
I even went back in time.
It was absurd that there were more things I didn’t know than what I knew.
‘Have I lived that roughly?’
I will live harder.
It was a moment of regret.
As I swallow my saliva with a dry throat, Wiseol-ah, who was far away, also jumps in and hugs me tightly.
“young master!”
“Didn’t I tell you not to run?”
“Hi-Hi!”
After rubbing her face against my chest several times, Seol-ah gestured to me as if to look behind me.
When I moved my gaze along my fingertips, I saw Namgoong Biah.
“what?
It’s like having your hair tied up in a weird way.
“Isn’t it pretty?”
Wi Seol-ah had an elated voice as if she had done it herself.
how do i do that
Two-headed hair…
It was a rather burdensome hairstyle to look at for a long time.
“.. It’s okay to dress in rags.”
Even with her hair like that, Namgoongbia had a face that seemed okay.
Then he looks at me and asks.
“Strange?”
“Isn’t it… strange?”
Anyway, that face is an appearance that can’t be outdone no matter what.
Namgoongbi knew that she liked my answer and nodded.
Shuk.
“hmm?
reach out to me
do you want to catch
I reached out and took Namgoongbi’s hand, and as if that wasn’t the case, Namgoongbia withdrew her hand.
isn’t this
[Looks like you’ve gotten used to holding hands. If you hold out your hand, hold it right away.]
‘Are you at home at times like this?’
[I don’t want to look like that,
so I don’t want to look like that.]
[ .What are you bastard?]
As if he couldn’t stand it, Noya burst out in a fit of rage and cursed at me.
It doesn’t work well for ears that are accustomed to hearing it.
“What is this hand?”
“Buy me.”
“.. what?”
What is that boldness?
Namgoongbia was so proud to ask me for money.
No, you can buy something like that, but suddenly, out of the blue, you want to buy it.
“…I didn’t bring any money…”
“Then you can ask for a loan. Buy me something.”
“…receiving… makes me feel better.”
At Namgoongbia’s words, I picked it! I laughed out loud.
“Have you become a little brazen lately?”
“.. no? If you don’t like it…”
“I didn’t say no.”
I passed Namgoongbia and approached the merchant.
As I was about to pay, I suddenly shifted my gaze to Dang Soyeol.
“You?,
“Yes, yes?”
When I asked, Dang So-yeol reacted in amazement.
I asked because I knew you were staring at me with envy.
“Don’t you want one too?”
“No… it’s not like that… No, that’s right. I want one too.”
He tried to deny that it wasn’t like that, but soon nodded as if he couldn’t hold back his desire.
Looking at it, I had to have a small question.
‘Why don’t they all have money?’
You can only do that if you stand on top.
It was strange that Consort Namgung and Dang Soyeol had no money.
“What do you need?”
I glanced at him and asked .
Dang So-yeol rushes in and picks one up.
It looks like it was preselected.
It was a hair ornament that looked like a white petal.
“Is this okay?”
Dang Soyeol nodded slightly at my question.
In the meantime, I noticed that my ears were turning red.
It seemed very embarrassing to ask to buy it.
“Two, please.”
“You have eyes to see! Fifty pennies for two.”
“.. These two are fifty pennies?”
I took out the iron coin from my bosom and hesitated.
Because the price was higher than expected.
I was going to buy it for a moment, but I said I would buy it, so I spit it out.
He bit off his teeth and paid the price.
Although it was an unexpected expense, I was upset.
Namgoongbi’s slight smile.
It was enough to show him enduring it while twitching the corners of his mouth when the sugar fever rises.
For reference, I also asked Seol-ah above.
“I just had that last time!”
he refused.
Soon night came.
Being harassed by three women all day was twice as hard as practicing with all your might.
Seriously.
That’s why I can’t pay a hard tee .
I had no choice but to keep my mouth shut.
That’s because there was such an eye.
As long as I have to go into the lungs the next day.
Now it was a moment to rest a little with organizing what happened today.
I changed my clothes and was about to lie down on the bed.
A guest has arrived.
It was a person who had been completely forgotten because he was shooting here and there.
“Hello, Mr. Gugong.”
A voice with a strange atmosphere.
A woman who suits the dawn rather than the night.
Mo Yong-hee came to visit me.
“Sorry for the late hour. If you don’t mind, may I come in?”
Looking at Mo Yong-hee talking to me cautiously, I said timidly.
“.. Excuse me, would you like to go back?”
“No. I’m just sorry, so I’m going in.”
a 99
Then why did you ask, you crazy.
