Heavenly Inquisition Sword

Episode 22. Isn’t chanmo better than hiking?

The door of the shabby home was opened and two young women came out. This is Ha So-baek, who entered the mountain with Han Chae-yeon a while ago. Twenty-year-old Han Chae-yeon and eighteen-year-old Ha So-baek stuck together like real sisters.

When the two women found Chaeju Poongyeoncho and Byeonju Takgomyeong, they rushed over.

Still, Han Chae-yeon opened her mouth first.

“Can’t Chae-joo go to the village with Yeon-san today?”

“To Haga Village?”

Poong Yeon-cho looked at Han Chae-yeon with a sullen face.

I want to go to Hejia Village, but I don’t know why I’m attracting Yeon Jeokha.

“yes. Sobaek said that a village ancestral rite is being held in Hagachon today. Because there are so many things to eat and so many things to see.”

“Why can’t we go together?”

“Oh, you want me to go down the mountain with two women? Please don’t do that and send me a kite brother. yes?”

Poongyeoncho looked at the two women with meaningful eyes.

It looks like he’s trying to seduce a younger enemy, but I don’t know if that’s possible. It is famous in the wild that Yeonjeokha is dull in affairs between men and women.

Takgomyeong, who was next to him, giggled and said a word.

“Would you like to go to Keukeu Village and try your luck?”

“Whew! It’s not like that.”

Ha So-baek, who had just entered the mountain, blushed and waved his hand.

On the other hand, Han Chae-yeon put her hands on her hips and shot them as if she was in a bad mood.

“It’s because Sobaek has just moved into the mountain, so there might be some people flirting with him!”

He Xiaobaek was from Hajia Village and was raised by a single mother. Then, her mother died of illness last year, and she was left alone, and there was no way men would leave her pretty. It was Han Chae-yeon who saved her from being raped by her neighbors.

Poongyeoncho waved her hand as if it was annoying.

“Okay, so do it. Youn brother will also like it because he has only been living in the mountains.”

“Thank you, brother.”

“thank you.”

Han Chae-yeon and Ha So-baek bowed and said hello.

As the two women fluttered away, Takgomyeong smiled and asked,

“Who do you think your younger brother will be with?”

“why?”

“Why? Aren’t I a man?”

“Ah, you thief! Don’t waste your time on it, admire it later and do well.”

“Your age is just a number.”

“I can’t believe someone like you ate rice.”

“How’s the rice? There are many men in the temple too. Shaolin Temple.”

“Are the Shaolin Temple priests as bright as you?”

“I mean, who do you think said that? It’s just that there are young women in the wild, so I’m doing it just in case.”

“Ugh! Fuck. Don’t talk nonsense and look into building a house often. Don’t let the handymen snoop around here and there alive for no reason. You never know when those bastards will turn into guides for the government forces.”

“Please. How much do you like us in Hagachon these days…” ”

So you think those bastards won’t tell you if you give them a few pennies?”

“Of course, those are the ones who would even sell my wife. I’ll keep an eye on you so you don’t do anything stupid.”

“Okay, let’s take good care of it. I want to stay in Obongsan for a long time.”

“So do i. older brother.”

Tak Go-myeong also wanted to continue living in Obong Sanchae. Now more abundant than ever before. Admiring wild vegetables! It’s something you couldn’t even dream of before.

***

I decided to descend at the recommendation of two women in a relationship who were spending time without anything special. It’s the first time I’ve been down to Haga Village to play since I entered the mountain.

Ha So-baek, who was leaving the wild, glanced at Yeonjeok-ha as if he was curious.

“Have you ever been to Haga Village, brother Yan?”

“Uh, I went there a couple of times last winter to buy rice and food with my older brothers.”

He is a year older than Xiaobaek, but he respects the younger brother. Yeon Jeok-ha was also naturally wearing a short horse due to his life in the wild.

“Oh, so I guess I didn’t see it. If you had come often, you would have been familiar with it.”

“Did you say you lived in Haga Village?”

“yes.”

“You don’t have a face to do bad things, so why did you come up the mountain?”

To be honest, I didn’t understand that part of the relationship. Hasobaek looks pretty to anyone. Her black and white eyes are clear and transparent, showing how innocent she is. With a face far from evil, why did he climb the mountain as if he were being chased?

Even though he learned morality by writing, he knows about right and wrong. Bandits are mostly people who have sinned and run away from the world. Of course, there are people who became bandits because they had a hard time making a living, but that was a rare case.

“Oh my dear Yeon. Am I the face to do bad things?”

Han Chae-yeon intervened with a sad face.

“Didn’t you say that?”

“Phi!”

Han Chae-yeon, who was pouting her lips with a dissatisfied face, briefly spoke about Ha So-baek’s past.

“That’s what happened.”

Yeon Jeok-ha nodded as if he understood.

That’s all. I didn’t ask what happened to those bad guys who had a relationship. It was no surprise that Sanchae was full of guys who had done worse than that.

It was awkward at first, but the three went down the mountain, exchanging little bits of personal history with each other.

***

Sahaeru, Hagachon.

As soon as he sat down by the window, Ha So-baek said with an excited face.

“They say this house is the best for cooking. Jinmi Banjeom is worth eating somen noodles.”

“Have you ever eaten?”

Ha So-baek laughed and nodded at Han Chae-yeon’s question.

“Hehe, I don’t have enough money to buy something like this. I went to the delicacy spot from time to time.”

Just in time, the jeomsoy approached.

“What can I bring you?”

Jeom So-yi looked at Han Chae-yeon and Ha So-baek.

Her beauty is rare in Haga Village, so it seems that her eyes are drawn to her.

Still, Han Chae-yeon, who had encountered various dishes at Giru, ordered them on behalf of the party.

“Huratang (spicy soup), Poja (dumplings), Yojajeongye (whole chicken dish), Sochoyuk (fried pork belly), Palbossalbap (fried rice), right?”

Han Chae-yeon stared at Jeom So-yi.

It was a face that believed that food sold in Bobong County would be good here too.

“Yes Yes, please wait.”

The cringing Jeom Soi withdrew.

“Oh my sister. it’s awesome.”

As Ha So-baek looked at him with envy, Han Chae-yeon shrugged and said,

“What is cool? Everything I saw and learned in Giru.”

“ah! You did.”

A pity passed over Hasobak’s face at the word Giru.

Around the time I drank a cup of hot tea on the table, the dish came out.

The three of them were absorbed in the delicacies they had been tasting for so long and just ate in silence.

“Who is this? Isn’t it Sobaek?”

With a loud noise, a man in silk clothes approached the table.

An awkward smile appeared on Ha So-baek’s face as he turned his head to look for someone.

A man in his thirties with a large mole under his eye tapped Hasobak on the shoulder as if he was happy to see him.

“I haven’t seen you all these days, what happened? You said something really bad happened? I told you to come find me if you have any difficulties. Why didn’t you come?”

Han Chae-yeon, who was watching what he was doing, asked Ha So-baek.

“Does anyone know?”

Unexpectedly, Hasobak shook his head from side to side.

Of course, I know about his face. But that’s all. That person is just one of the men in Hajia Village who have been teasing her. You can’t say that you know that, can you?

“what? you don’t know me No way!”

As the man continued to talk, Han Chae-yeon said coldly.

“Hey uncle. My brother says he doesn’t know. Do you know who we are?”

Ha Il-ji, who runs a large linen store in Haga Village, asked in a laughable tone.

“who?”

“We are the people of Obong Sanchae. I want you to know.”

Ha Il-ji, who had been in high spirits a moment ago, immediately lowered his tail.

“Sorry. Stop not knowing that they are the knights of Obongsan Mountain…”

He couldn’t even lift his back properly and avoided his seat by stepping backwards. It is a sight to know how great the prestige of Obong Sanchae in Haga Village is.

Han Chae-yeon, who clicked her tongue as if she was pathetic, asked Yeon Jeok-ha.

“Isn’t your older brother angry when you see someone like that?”

“I feel bad.”

“Then why were you quiet?”

“What did you say? That’s it.”

In fact, he only watched because he did not know the relationship between Sobaek and the man. However, I didn’t want to make such a lame excuse for Han Chae-yeon.

Han Chae-yeon pursed her lips as if she didn’t like it, but quickly changed the subject.

“Come on, come on.”

“why?”

“Can’t you teach Sobaek and me martial arts?”

“Martial arts?”

Han Chae-yeon gently touched Ha So-baek’s elbow.

Then, as if they had matched their words in advance, Sobaek also said a word.

“Yes, brother. Please teach me and Chaeyeon some martial arts.”

He hesitated for a moment at the sudden request.

Teaching martial arts is not difficult. Because he himself learned anti-magic from the debtor. But I have no experience teaching anyone, so will it work?

When Yeon Jeok-ha hesitated, Han Chae-yeon asked with a sad expression.

“why? it can not?”

The cornered Yeonjeokha scratched his head with a puzzled expression.

“It’s not that I can’t, I’m not confident. The old men insisted on teaching me how to anti-magic, and all I did was show them a few times. To be honest, I don’t even know what to teach.”

In an instant, Han Chae-yeon’s face brightened.

“really? If that’s the case, that’s fine. All you need is a heart to teach. If you have any questions, we’ll tell you right away.”

“I can do that. But why are you suddenly trying to learn martial arts?”

“These days, there is a fuss about finding people to cook and do laundry in wild vegetables. If we don’t know how to fight, will we try to seek praise? It is clear that it will be left to us.”

“Your sister is right. It’s fortunate if you find Chanmo, but if you can’t find one or if Chanmo suddenly quits… Ugh.”

Ha So-baek trembled as if the thought of it was terrifying.

Only then did he know exactly the intentions of the two girls.

In the end, he said he would learn martial arts because he was afraid that he would be praised in the wild.

“By the way, isn’t chanmo better than going out for a mountain hike?”

At Yeonjeokha’s words, the two shouted in unison.

“Absolutely no!”

“why not?”

Why do the two ladies prefer a dangerous hike to a safe kitchen?

Han Chae-yeon said while stroking the teacup with both hands.

“Do you remember what the man said a moment ago? I’m sorry. I didn’t know they were the members of Obongsan Mountain. Kitchen sluts will never hear such a thing in their entire life.”

“that’s right. If possible, we also want to learn martial arts and become strong heroines.”

“Chanmo isn’t really.”

He nodded his head as if he understood.

After all, when he himself was locked up in a warehouse, he wanted to roam the world freely. If you look at it like that, it seems that people’s hearts are similar.

Ha Nam.

Ahn Geo-jin.

As the sun went down, two men opened the door of the Western Inn and went inside. They were Sang Moo-cheon, the leader of Mansu Sangbang, a fierce swordsman, and his teacher, a shamanic elder, the Merchant of Heaven and Earth.

It was dinner time, so the inn was full of customers.

Sangmucheon hurriedly reserved a room at the inn and invited the merchants of heaven and earth to an empty seat in one corner.
