Warrior Grandpa and Supreme Granddaughter - Chapter 138
Episode 138: Eyes are faster than hands (1)
A busy area in Mihyeon, southern Shaanxi.
Jinsan Yu and his granddaughter were sitting on the roof of the pavilion, watching somewhere.
Like two sparrows….
“I’m sure it’s that building.”
“Is there a money ear over there?”
Yu Jin-san chuckled and shook his head.
“It’s not a money ghost, it’s a money ghost. “He’s the most famous guy in the gambling world.”
“Nooreum~?”
“okay. For entertainment, the winner gets to take the other person’s money. Can you see it over there?”
Yu Seol stared at the place the grandfather’s index finger was pointing to.
There were many vagabonds around the palace where the fighting took place.
They look like they have lost everything in the world.
There was no dream or hope in their eyes.
“huh. Poor guys….”
“No matter how pitiful they are, they brought it on themselves. It may start out as fun, but human greed has no end. Once you get into it, you can’t stop until you’re ruined. So, our Seol should never do anything like gambling. “Did you understand what grandpa said?”
“okay. “I won’t do it until I die.”
“Oh my, you’re so kind.”
Eugene San raised his right hand high and patted her head as if she was impressed by her granddaughter.
Joson, who was sitting on the roof, was eating snacks, chatting, and watching.
Small gambling games take place on the streets, but large gambling games take place in enclosed spaces like this.
Near the entrance, warriors were often seen.
You can’t walk barefoot where a lot of money is exchanged. The bodyguards who followed the wealthy men would be waiting outside.
It was while I was watching Si-jin do that.
Kwaang-!
Someone walked out of the pavilion and grunted as if they were indignant.
“This bastard dares to use technology?”
One of the warriors standing guard at the entrance quickly approached and stood by his side.
“They say even monkeys fall from trees. I guess things didn’t go well today.”
“Damn it. “It’s been a long time since I was bullied by a bastard.”
“If there are times when you lose, there are times when you win. “It will definitely work out better next time, sir.”
Since I had lost my money, there was no way I could hear any consolation.
He walked nervously towards somewhere.
“We’ll see. “If you provide enough money for me, I will definitely repay you.”
And his grandfather was hiding and watching him walk away.
“That guy would be nice. “Grandpa, should I go alone?”
“I want to go with you too.”
The two began to follow the group from before, going up and down the roof of the palace.
The moment had passed and it was time to enter a dark, dark place.
Taaa-!
Eugene San and his granddaughter got down on the ground and blocked the gambler’s path.
“Would you like to talk to us for a moment?”
I’m already in a bad mood, but some kids are blocking the road and talking informally to me. The gambler’s brows narrowed significantly.
“What? Should we talk!? “Why don’t you get rid of these little guys quickly?”
Unfortunately, the gambler did not see Yu Jin-san and his granddaughter’s Gyeongshin method just a moment ago.
But his guard was different. He was frozen with a very serious expression.
“….”
“What are you doing? “I told you to clean it up quickly!”
“Oh, old man. “Be careful what you say.”
The most important quality for a guard warrior is to be quicker than others.
How could he not have memorized the impressive appearance of the yin-yang twin monsters that have recently caused an uproar in Shaanxi Wulin?
However, to the eyes of the gambler who knew nothing, they only looked like children. Of course I was bound to be annoyed.
“what? “Are you looking at me funny just because I lost money?”
“That’s not it… I think it’s a yin-yang twin monster.”
“Whether it’s the Yin-Yang Twin Monster or the Yin-Yang Eight Trigrams, right in front of my eyes…”
The gambler couldn’t continue talking any longer. This is because his bodyguard pointed out the pain.
“My elders must have had limited insight into martial arts. Please forgive my rudeness.”
The gambler, unable to speak, was just rolling his eyes.
I can’t believe my guard bowed down and handed a gun to the kids. Moreover, the children were even more excited than ever. It was natural for my mind to be confused.
“….”
When tensions were rising. Jinsan Yu nodded once and approached the gambler.
“You’ve got quite a useful escort by your side. From what I heard, it sounds like you’ve been playing at the gambling table for quite some time. What is your nickname?”
The answer came from his bodyguard.
“My elders call me my second son.”
“It’s an equal hand. “So you need some money?”
Jinsan Yu sent a glance towards the back.
Then, Yoo Seol took the bag he was carrying on his shoulder and laid it on the floor.
Tuk-!
“It’s 150 nyang silver.”
At that moment, everyone’s eyes widened.
Jin-san Yu was also quite surprised in another sense. This may be because I only told her to hold it and never told my granddaughter the amount.
Could it be that it was calculated based on weight alone? It was truly amazing.
At that time, the guard released the gambler’s fortune-telling again.
“What is this money?”
My partner’s tone of voice had changed one hundred and eighty degrees. This may be because I have finally realized that the children in front of me are martial arts experts who lied on the outside.
Yu Jin-san asked directly without changing his words.
“Can you go away and make a plate for me?”
“Are you a devil or a devil!?”
Eugene San also knew why the gambler was surprised.
According to information, it is known that all those caught up with the devil lost their lives or all their property.
“If you want to join us, I will share with you a portion of the other money. how is it?”
It was not a ratio that could be looked down upon as a matter of work. Because it was a big deal with a huge amount of money exchanged.
It was an attractive offer, but I wanted to make sure I got a partner.
“Until now, no one has ever fought a demon and won. “What happens to me if I lose all this money?”
“That won’t happen, so you don’t have to worry. Even if that happens, I won’t hold you responsible in any way.”
Where in the world is there an opportunity like this? From the partner’s point of view, it was an offer with nothing to lose.
But for some reason, I couldn’t help feeling hesitant. This is because Dogwi was a very scary figure in the world of gamblers.
“….”
“There is no answer. “Are demons more fearful than us?”
“Can you think about it for a moment?”
“Sure.”
Jakson took his bodyguard and moved to the corner of the alley. Then he asked in a very quiet voice.
“If the demon and them fight, who do you think will win?”
“Please lower your voice a little, sir. “The person on the left is Yinkai Daehyeop, one of the ten martial arts masters.”
“what? “You look weak. Is there something wrong with you?”
The half-handed bodyguard lowered his voice even further.
“I’m sure. Don’t be fooled by his appearance, because he is a tax-saving expert who has turned around. “No matter how much the devil flies and crawls, in front of him, he is no different from a neighborhood puppy.”
“What day is today? And even if you win, there’s no guarantee that you’ll keep us alive, right?”
“Don’t worry about that. They say they don’t harm non-Murim people.”
“Um… Is that so? If we do this well, we might be able to have a drink together and retire from this place.”
“It will definitely happen.”
Eventually, my partner, who had made up his mind, put his hands together and approached me politely.
“I will accept your offer. “With this money, we can summon demons.”
“Okay, I’d like you to grab the board as quickly as possible. And you don’t have to worry too much. “As long as you don’t do anything foolish, I won’t harm you.”
My partner was shocked for a moment, but couldn’t show it.
He bowed his head once with an awkward smile.
* * *
“It’s here!”
My granddaughter loved jumping up and down on the roof of a certain pavilion. Because the person I had been waiting for finally appeared.
He was a middle-aged man with a sharp look whose entire body was adorned with accessories. He was holding a thick silk bundle in his hand.
Yu Jin-san also watched him intently as he approached from afar. However, because the costume completely covered the neck, it was not possible to confirm whether there was a tattoo of Changnyongdae.
“How do you know?”
“hmm. “That guy is a little strong.”
The granddaughter said that if she was a little stronger, she would be at the peak level. There was no way an expert of that level would suddenly appear here. Unless it’s a demon.
After a while, as the distance got closer, Yu Jin-san also felt his energy.
‘How can a person’s killing spirit be so strong?’
Unlike the martial artist’s spirit, he was giving off an unpleasant aura.
It was probably a ploy to kill the opponent’s spirit from the beginning.
My partner, who was already waiting in front of the door, had a hard look on his face.
“Are you here alone? “Are you asking me to include one of your students as well?”
Although he spoke informally, it was not awkward at all.
“We will arrive soon.”
“Well, if you’re a disciple of a pair of hands, you’re qualified. “If only I had money.”
“….”
“Let’s go in first.”
The sight of Do-gwi entering inside was full of composure.
On the other hand, my partner’s body was frozen as if he was exhausted.
The demon that entered earlier shouted in a loud voice as soon as he entered.
“Hey, owner! “If one more person comes in, lock the door.”
The venue, which was noisy and full of swear words, suddenly became quiet.
The gamblers who recognized the thief all became mute. Where is that? The warriors in charge of security inside also looked very nervous.
“I will guide you this way.”
There is a table prepared in advance in the center of the hall.
The two people sitting there facing each other put down the funds they had prepared.
In gambling, your winning rate increases simply by suppressing your opponent’s momentum.
At first glance, it seemed like there were ten times more hermits. He must have brought a lot of money to kill the opponent from the start.
“Is that all? “If it costs 80 silver coins, it won’t even take ten plates.”
“You won’t know if you win until the end.”
Nodding his head, the swordsman pulled out a dagger from his belt and stabbed it into the table.
“You know the rules, right? If you get caught fooling around, everything gets blown away. “Then let’s get started.”
“Wait a minute… my student hasn’t arrived yet.”
“Your disciple or something has already run away. “Because there was no one nearby.”
The demon was sure. This is because I had already checked all the signs around me before coming here.
It was then. I wonder if my partner, who had been down until now, suddenly opened his shoulders wide.
There was a lot of strength in my neck too.
“We’ve arrived now, so get ready to attack!”
“…what?”
“I heard you’re behind me now.”
Was it because his partner’s suddenly changed attitude was strange?
Dogwi, who looked back without thinking, was so startled that he almost fell.
Two children who looked to be about nine or ten years old. This is because it exactly matched the impression of the yin-yang twin monster that terrified the political believers.
“…Why is the yin-yang twin monster here?”
Jjakson’s disciple is one of the yin-yang twin monsters. Where can something so absurd come from?
At his words, the warriors in the hall were shocked and their eyes widened.
Jinsan Yu spoke to his granddaughter without even looking at them.
“I’ll be back as soon as I finish, so I’m blocking the door so no one can come in.”
“okay.”
In front of the door, Yoo Seol crossed his arms and focused his eyes. It was his will not to let anyone pass without his grandfather’s permission.
Eugene San left his granddaughter behind and trudged along carrying his backpack.
The purpose this time was not simply to catch the demon. Several things were included in the goal, including his own funds.
“I guess this is my place.”
The demon’s expression, which had been full of leisure just a moment ago, became stiff.
He kept glancing towards the door as if he was worried about the sound.
Seeing his dejected appearance, his partner began to provoke him.
“Why is the demon of the world like this? “Don’t turn your hand quickly.”
If it had been normal, I might have pulled out a dagger and ripped open my partner’s mouth.
But the demon had no such leisure. How can you carelessly use martial arts when Yin Kai is watching? Besides, I was busy calculating the situation right now.
The next judgment he made was that the yin-yang twin monsters would not be able to do anything to him without justification. Because there were many people watching.
“Then let us begin.”
Fighting was a gambling game in which players dealt five cards in their hand, combined numbers, discarded three cards, and then used the remaining two cards to determine the last number.
However, in the competition between batters, only two cards are used from the beginning. This is to decide the winner quickly.
Only after catching his breath did the demon begin to skillfully turn the card.
Good! Good! Good! Good! Good! Worse-!
There was nothing suspicious about his touch. There was only a very slight difference in sound.
Jin-san Yu and his partner didn’t notice at all, but someone was seeing through everything.
“Grandpa. He just removed the bottom.”
