Warrior Grandpa and Supreme Granddaughter - Chapter 35

Episode 35 There is no turning back now (1)

In front of the west gate of Chang’an City, officials holding clubs were clearing the way.

“Make way!”

Behind them, the procession of government troops continued.

Black armor and flat helmet over red combat uniform. At first glance, it was the uniform of a royal inspector who inspected officials.

Onlookers were constantly flocking to the left and right of the roadside, whispering.

“What on earth is going on?”

“It’s a civil service university. “Don’t you know about the grim reapers who capture Tamgwan Duck?”

“Look over there!”

From about halfway through the procession, endless rows of prisoners appeared.

Even at first glance, the number of people numbering in the hundreds aroused the curiosity of the people.

“They’re capturing that much?”

“Are you a rebel or something?”

As the gate approached, one of the prisoners in the lead began to struggle.

He was a man with a bloated, fat physique to the point where his eyeballs were buried.

“How can these guys treat Hyeongam like this? “If I have any sin, it is only that I was deceived by those guys!”

Where the district magistrate’s eyes were directed, there was a middle-aged man with a face full of scars, with a bewildered expression on his face.

“It’s unfair! The author forcibly demanded kickbacks from our company, Cheonryong Store! “We all just did what we were told!”

“what? “What did you say just now?”

As if they had been waiting, the former officials and the prisoners from the Cheonryong Chamber of Commerce glared at each other and swore.

Is it because the prisoners’ voices have become stronger? The commander of the investigation unit in the lead raised one hand.

When the procession stopped, he turned around and let out an annoyed yell.

“Smite those dirty mouths so hard they won’t make fun of them again!”

That was the signal. Soldiers clutching clubs came from all directions like a swarm of bees and began to beat them.

There was no mercy in their attacks.

Wow! Sigh-! Buck-!!

“Tsk!”

“Aaaah!”

There were no exceptions, including the Hyeongam, the highest official of Jinyang County, the Chairman of the Cheonryong Chamber of Commerce, who committed all kinds of evil acts with him, and their subordinates and relatives.

One by one, they became covered in blood, accompanied by desperate screams.

Meanwhile, there was an old man watching the scene with a meaningful expression among the residents.

It was Eugene-san, carrying his sleeping granddaughter on his back.

‘At least those two will have a hard time surviving.’

There was no need to look any further. As long as he has the ledger he handed over, there will be no way out.

After achieving his goal, Jinsan Yu turned his back and walked away.

He was covered in bamboo and was holding a spear disguised as a staff, with a bundle tied to the end.

And the sound of my granddaughter’s breathing continued to linger in my back.

Did you say that children sleep a lot? I stayed asleep for more than half of the day without waking up despite the noise.

‘I don’t know if the Heuksando guys arrived safely. ‘I’ll have to hurry and find a place to settle down.’

Unlike Heuksando, he had not yet left Shaanxi Province because he was busy delivering ledgers.

It’s already been a month since I’ve been wandering here.

This was because the experts of the Hwasan faction and the Shaman faction were tracking them with their eyes turned on, so they could not move freely.

A wanted poster was posted due to the prejudice he showed while fighting with the head of the Cheonryong Chamber of Commerce. Moreover, he was pointed out as the key mastermind who planned the whole incident.

His heavy steps moved aimlessly without a destination in mind.

‘Now we have an irreversible relationship with the Murim Alliance. Then, the forces opposing them could be on my side.’

Since the Demonic Cult had fallen and disappeared, the forces that could confront them were limited.

A world of free-spirited power and self-reliance. Isn’t one of Sapa’s sacred sites not far from here?

Going there wasn’t the first time I had thought about it.

I was worried that it might have a negative impact on the child’s growth because it was a place full of warlike and rough warriors.

But nothing was more important than immediate survival.

‘Now is not the time to be reckless.’

* * *

Hohyeon (戶縣). This is one of the sacred sites in Sapa, and the Murim Alliance is not allowed to enter.

Every street I passed felt like a lawless zone.

It was surprising that the civilians were living here without any problems.

But there was a good reason for this.

Apostolic Association (邪道聯), an association of four schools of thought. They did not allow anyone to harm the people of Hohyeon.

If the population decreases, the village’s economy will decline, which will mean the collapse of the sacred place.

widely-!

It was the sound of a butcher in the market cutting off a chicken head.

“Now, it’s five coins per chicken!”

“We are selling freshly slaughtered pork today!”

The solicitation of customers continued everywhere.

Compared to other villages, it was a bit messy, but it was full of vitality everywhere.

Yoo Seol, riding on the grandfather’s back, was busy looking around and looking around.

“Hmph. “Cock-daek, die!”

Jinsan Yu responded with a happy smile.

“It looks like our Seol is sad that the chicken died.”

“What should I do…”

I couldn’t help but laugh. He was a child who liked chicken the most.

It was impossible to count how many chickens had entered my granddaughter’s stomach so far.

“haha. Don’t be sad. “I’m sure he went to a good place.”

“What’s a good place?”

It was a question that was a bit difficult to explain.

At that time, a guest came into the field of vision of Jinsan Yu, who was worrying. It was also time to eat.

“There it is! If you go there, you will meet your chicken friend who just died again.”

“Hi-Hi.”

I was a child who knew where to eat like a ghost. The thought of eating delicious food seemed to make him feel better.

The appearance of the guesthouse seen from the outside was clearly no different from other places.

However, the atmosphere inside was completely different.

Two tables attached to the center of the guest room. Dozens of men had gathered there and were betting on arm wrestling.

“ha ha ha! “I won this time too.”

“Holy shit!”

“Is there a next challenger?”

The noisy Safa people were in stark contrast to the gentle political faction.

There was no trace of dignity or pretense in them.

Eugene San quietly moved to a corner to avoid the gaze of those around him.

After ordering some food, he looked around inside to check for safety, as was his habit.

There were dozens of people who practiced martial arts, but there was no one who could pose a threat to him. Until now.

“If there is a next challenger, please come out! Who can handle the strength of Wei Wugang’s arms?”

“….”

The person who introduced himself as Wei Mugang asked again, but no one came forward.

“Is there anyone? “Then this money…”

At that time, someone came in from outside the guest house and shouted.

“I’ll take on the challenge!”

“…?”

A shiny bald head with a stocky body. And even the scars drawn diagonally across his face. He was a middle-aged man with a very menacing look.

A look of tension also appeared on Yu Jin-san’s face as he watched from afar. This is because, at first glance, he was a master whose skills were at least at the peak level.

He walked to the center of the guesthouse, sat down opposite Wei Mu-gang and stretched out his hand.

“Put it on once.”

Wei Wugang sighed as if he knew him. Most of the friendly-looking people seemed to be regulars of this restaurant.

“Brother Baek, aren’t you doing this too much? “Why do you want to get involved in kids’ fights?”

“Don’t do that, just give it a try. I’ll do it with one finger. Instead, if I lose, I’ll give you ten times your money.”

“There’s nothing else to say after losing, right?”

“Cancer of course! “What do you think of this Baek-gyu?”

Onlookers thought that Wei Wugang would have the upper hand. No matter how much I thought about it, I thought it was ridiculous with just one finger.

As expected, as soon as the confrontation began, Wei Wugang gained the upper hand.

Baek-gyu was frowning and was holding on even though it looked like he was going to lose.

“Brother Baek, what are you doing? Now you have to see the end, so blame me.”

“Oh, be gentle!”

It was a time when everyone thought Wei Wugang had won.

Only Yu Jin-san, who was watching with interest from the corner, was shaking his head horizontally as if he could not be seen. Because I knew that Baek Gyu was watching.

In martial arts arm wrestling, internal strength is more important than strength. Baek-gyu’s rebellious energy was overwhelming Wei Mu-gang.

just as expected. Little by little, his acting began to shine and he narrowly overpowered Wei Wugang.

“Hey! Goes!”

Kuung-!

“Ugh! “I lost again.”

Wei Wugang sighed, handed him a wad of coins, and stepped back. Then Baek-gyu looked around with a big smile and asked.

“ha ha ha! “Now then, who wants to play with Baek-gyu?”

No one came forward easily. This may be because they judged that there was no chance since Wei Wugang, the strongest here, was defeated.

Some of the martial arts people who were close to him expressed their displeasure.

“Who can defeat Paedomun’s Moonju? “Why did you come to a place where kids are playing…”

“Look, Baek, Moonju, you have to maintain your dignity.”

Baek-gyu smiled brightly as if he didn’t care.

“Hahaha! What is the importance of dignity to us Safa people who live only for today? “Just have fun without regrets and that’s it!”

“Ugh. “Who will defeat Lord Moon?”

At that moment, Baek-gyu, who was laughing loudly, suddenly stopped laughing as if it were a lie. Then he put his index finger to his mouth as if to tell him to be quiet.

“…?”

Everyone looked at him with curious eyes.

As his gaze focused, he quietly let out a word.

“There is one person here.”

The martial arts people in the guesthouse looked like they couldn’t understand.

“yes?”

“Who?”

“Who gets punished by Lord Mun when he was even punished by false imprisonment?”

At that time, his index finger, which was placed on his lips, slowly moved and pointed at someone.

The most corner table in the guesthouse.

Someone was quietly eating food with a child the size of a chestnut.

Judging by the white hair hanging beneath the bamboo ribs, one could only guess that he was not young.

“Do you all know who he is?”

Jinsan Yu’s hand, which was putting food into his granddaughter’s mouth, stopped in midair.

Because he knew he was referring to himself.

Baek-gyu’s continued words made him extremely nervous.

“I’m sure you are all familiar with the incident that occurred in Jinyang County not long ago.”

How can you not know? This was a story that was greatly talked about among the Wulin people of Shaanxi.

The Gangho was in an uproar over the fact that Taoists from the Hwasan faction and the Shaman faction died en masse due to someone’s trick. Because of that incident, the Murim Alliance was in a panic trying to catch the evil beast. I guess he guessed it from looking at the wanted poster.

Yu Jin-san secretly grabbed the spear with his hand hidden under the table.

‘I’ve been avoiding it well, but I got caught by mistake today.’

It was the worst situation. I don’t know how he knew, but the situation was unusual.

And Baekgyu’s next words were also as expected.

He clenched his fist and shouted, pretending to hit someone.

“He is the one who defeated the Shaman faction and the Volcanic faction!”

Kuuk-!

It was the sound of Yu Jin-san grasping the spear.

Just as we were getting ready to head out, the martial arts people in the guesthouse stood up at the same time.

At that moment, a completely different reaction than I imagined followed.

Applause is pouring in from everywhere.

“Wow! “Is it really him?”

“haha! Unbelievable.”

“Daehyeop is the hero of Sapa!”

“I respect you Daehyup! “I felt relieved when I heard that!”

Even though you are giving trouble to the Murim Alliance, you are still called a great hero. It was the first time I had heard this title in decades.

Eugene-san, who was dazed, could not get used to the current situation.

The tension was so extreme that I forgot about it for a while. This place is a sacred place for the Sa sect that is in conflict with the political sect.

Feeling embarrassed, he relaxed and let go of the spear he was holding.

“….”

At that time, Baekgyu gently extended his palm towards Yujinsan.

“Come on Daehyeop. “Then will you accept Baek-gyu’s challenge?”

Yu Jin-san let out a meaningless sigh.

‘This is so crazy. Arm wrestling at this age.’
