Episode 140. Tiger Note (3)
Hanbin wrinkled his nose and focused on the smell.
As I concentrated, I could sense the smell coming from the tip of my nose.
It smelled like lard.
what?
Hanbin tilted his head and followed the scent.
Hanbin stopped walking on the floor where the bookshelf was placed.
Hanbin, who was thinking about it for a moment, decided to dig underneath the bookshelf instead of moving it.
When I touched the soil lightly, a strange sound was heard.
Tick.
I glanced at the place where the sound was coming from and a copper-colored object caught my eye.
Hanbin carefully dug around the edge of the object.
The object that appeared was actually a lump of oil.
The oil looked like a fist-sized rock.
Hanbin smiled with conversion.
This was a method used to store the English text for a long time.
If you wrap the container containing the spirit tablet in oil paper and then apply oil to it, the spirit tablet’s true energy will not leak out even after several decades.
In a way, it was a stroke of luck that I discovered this.
I could smell it because the oil was spread thickly.
Hanbin carefully unfolded the oil paper that was exposed after removing the oil.
It took a lot of effort to peel off the wax paper because it was wrapped so carefully.
As soon as I peeled off the oil paper, a small silver bead the size of a fingernail was revealed.
As Hanbin had expected, it was a storage box for the English version.
Hanbin tilted his head.
This is because it is not an item from the Demonic Cult, but an item from the Bukhae Ice Palace.
Other people might just think of it as a bead, but Hanbin’s past life’s Gangho jjambbap didn’t go anywhere.
He knew exactly how to use this bead.
Hanbin carefully held the small silver bead and breathed energy into it.
Swish.
The silver orb spun around and split in half.
Hanbin swallowed without realizing it.
Now it is the turn of the Cheonmasindan to reveal itself.
what?
Hanbin tilted his head.
Inside the silver orb was a transparent crystal the size of a quarter of a fingernail.
Is this the Cheonma Shrine?
It definitely wasn’t.
Hanbin opened his eyes wide as he looked inside the bead.
This was the eternal ice crystal, called the treasure of the North Sea Ice Palace.
It may not be of immediate use, but it is a valuable treasure that can buy you a decent Sega depending on how you use it.
Why is this treasure here?
After a moment of hesitation, Hanbin quickly returned the marble to its original state.
This was because as the cold air escaped, its value also decreased.
Although the eternal ice crystal was not something that would melt in the heat, there was no need to expose it to the turbid air of the world.
Ssuk.
Hanbin, who had returned the bead to its original state, put the bead containing the eternal ice crystal into his necklace.
It was the very same necklace that had previously stored the Cheongmyeonghwan.
There is no possibility that the Cheonmasindan and the Mannyeonbingjeong would be found in the same place.
Hanbin gave up on finding the Cheonmasindan and sat cross-legged.
It was to absorb the spirit that Seomunmugyeol had given.
Hanbin took out the small box Seomunmugyeol had given him from his bosom.
When I opened the box, a white dragonfly was showing off its appearance.
This was the Sun Altar, one of the three great artifacts of the Seomun family.
Hanbin swallowed the sunfish without delay.
I felt a refreshing scent tickle my nose and seep into my throat.
Hanbin slowly inhaled and exhaled repeatedly.
A common method of fortune telling among the people, not a special method of rising.
Everything was a path to learning the best ascending method.
A frog has to crouch down a lot to jump high.
In fact, if I hadn’t learned the Yongrin Gyeop method, I wouldn’t have even attempted this.
How to get one year of life with elixir without the Ascension Method?
If it weren’t for the healing properties of the Yongrin Sword Technique, the blood vessel would have burst.
Even now, he was constantly using the properties of recovery to protect his blood vessels.
After a while.
Hanbin opened his eyes.
An auspicious moment passed through Hanbin’s eyes.
If someone saw it, they would say it was a complete transformation.
However, Hanbin tilted his head.
I came to know how difficult it is to reach the first stage of the cycle without the Ascension Method.
The energy that Hanbin had just absorbed was exactly five years’ worth of internal energy.
Now, he had fifty-five years of internal energy.
If this is the first elixir that the Sun Corps takes, then ten years of internal energy will be easy.
However, since Hanbin had already consumed a lot of elixir, the effect was drastically reduced.
Well, that was the expected result.
This is because it is a law known to all martial artists that the more often an elixir is taken, the less effective it is.
Hanbin tried to guess how much time had passed.
It must have been about five o’clock.
Hanbin walked slowly towards the wall.
Then, he took control and started using the Yongrin Sword Technique.
‘On the brink.’
At the end of the definition, a blue aura rippled and Hanbin stabbed it into the wall like a sword.
Phew!
In front of the pavilion, which was surrounded by a wall made of solid bluestone, the tofu was crushed and fell apart helplessly.
Hanbin stared at the wall for a moment and repeated the same movement several times.
Phew!
The last time I stabbed a wall was when.
Oil was slowly seeping out from inside the wall.
What Hanbin did just now was to damage the organ’s equipment.
Now, after many attempts, Hanbin has found the oil supply route.
What exactly does Hanbin want?
It was simple.
Hanbin was trying to remove the root of the future.
The root of the future? There were two possibilities.
Either Hanbin didn’t find the Cheonma Sindan in the Tiger Shrine today, or someone brought it there in the future.
Now that I think about it, it was highly likely that someone had taken the Everlasting Ice Crystal and placed the symbol of the Demonic Cult on it.
However, Hanbin had to eliminate the first possibility first.
What if by any chance a demonic object is found inside the Tiger’s Nest?
In addition, even if the Heavenly Horse Sacred Table or Giyeon remained inside, it was not right for others to find what they could not find themselves.
One of his iron rules was that what he couldn’t eat, others shouldn’t eat.
Hanbin waited until the oil had soaked the floor properly.
Then I slowly climbed the stairs leading out.
Hanbin, who had almost climbed the stairs, lit the oil paper that had wrapped the eternal ice crystal.
Slurp.
He threw the burning oil paper down without a care.
A burning flame reflected in Hanbin’s eyes for a moment.
Hanbin closed the basement door with a cool expression, as if an aching tooth had fallen out.
There was no concern about the fire spreading from the basement to other floors due to the design of the Tiger Tower, and the basement would be cleaned thoroughly.
The second possibility, that enemies will come in and frame the family in the future, will also be resolved by burning down the basement.
I’ll use the fire as an excuse to redecorate the basement and set up traps!
“Goodbye!”
Hanbin muttered to himself as he turned the handle at the entrance to the Tiger Cave.
* * *
Swish.
As soon as the handle of the tiger’s horn turned, the guards’ eyes widened.
Hanbin, who had been in the house for a day, was worried and was debating whether he should report this to the head of the household or not.
In that situation, the door to the tiger’s lair was opened.
From the outside, it had to be opened by turning it as instructed in the book, but when coming out, a person could open it from the inside.
Rattling.
The door opened and Hanbin walked out.
Hanbin smiled brightly and spoke to the warriors.
“Good luck to you all.”
“Oh, Your Majesty. Are you okay?”
“What do you mean, are you okay? What could happen in the short time you’re here?”
“Oh, wait? I was worried because it’s been over a day since you came in, so I asked.”
“day?”
As Hanbin tilted his head slightly, the security guard continued speaking cautiously.
“Yes, there’s no way there’s anything to eat inside there… … .”
Hanbin quickly cut him off.
“Thank you for your concern.”
I waved my hand.
As Hanbin left, one of the security guards tilted his head.
“Doesn’t something like an oily smell come from somewhere?”
“What kind of oil is that? It’s because I’m hungry.”
“I see? Come to think of it, we haven’t even eaten a single meal.”
The guard’s words were sincere.
Only the direct descendants of the Habuk Peng family can enter the Tiger Clan.
Normally, it is a security duty, but if someone from the direct line of the Habuk Peng family enters the Tiger Vigo, the mission changes to escort duty.
For that reason, all the guards in charge of the tiger watch were mobilized and stayed up all night.
One of the guards continued speaking with a bright smile.
“Let’s take turns eating first.”
“That’s right. That’s what’s important now.”
After Hanbin left, the guards discussed who would go to the restaurant first.
* * *
Hanbin’s expression on his face as he headed to his residence was serious, as if he was thinking about something.
‘Harura?’
I thought a few hours had passed, but it felt like much more time had passed than I thought.
This also seemed to be a question of efficiency.
It was when Hanbin finished his worries with a smirk.
Someone was running from afar.
As I turned my head, I saw Cheolno running towards me in a hurry.
Cheolno, who ran in front of Hanbin, is holding a dumpling container made of bamboo.
“Your Majesty, are you okay?”
“I’m fine. Are those dumplings?”
“Yes, that’s right, Your Majesty.”
“Let’s eat here.”
When Hanbin sat down with his head down and pointed to the floor, Cheolno looked at him in bewilderment.
“Are you going to eat here? How can you eat here without any manners?”
“Hey, where do I have dignity? Even dignity is useless if I’m dead, Cheolno.”
“Well, well… … .”
As Cheolno put down the dumpling container, someone popped his head out from behind him.
When he turned his head, he saw Seol-hwa looking at Han-bin as if she was displeased with something.
Hanbin asked Seolhwa as he was about to take a bite of the dumpling.
“Seolhwa, is something wrong?”
“I felt like I was eating something delicious alone.”
“Huh, what’s that delicious thing in there?”
“I know that, but I feel like you ate something tastier than candy.”
“Hmm, absolutely not!”
Seolhwa narrowed her eyes and looked at Hanbin as he quickly waved his hand.
Hanbin turned his head and took a leisurely bite of the dumpling.
As expected, Seolhwa’s insight was amazing.
It’s not the delicious snack that Seolhwa thinks it is, but I took Seomun Se-ga’s Sundan.
I could say that I ate something more valuable than any food.
Hanbin, who had been lost in thought for a moment, snapped his fingers as if remembering something and looked at Cheolno.
“By the way, why was your collar damaged last time? Cheolno.”
“Hey, you’re asking so early. It’s nothing, Your Majesty.”
Cheolno waved his hand with a pleasant expression.
Hanbin didn’t seem to have anything to worry about, so he took a bite of the dumpling without asking any more questions.

Three days later, the Habukpengga Gajujeon.
Peng Kang-wi was facing Peng Dae-wi, holding a steaming cup of tea in front of him.
At that moment, a warrior opened the door to the main hall and came in.
Ta-da-dak.
The lucky warrior quickly continued speaking.
“Your Majesty, the Four Princes have just left.”
“Good job.”
As Musa left, Gaju Peng Gangwi looked at his younger brother Peng Daewi in silence.
Peng Daewi also smiled with his eyes.
While they were drinking tea in silence, Pang Dae-wi, the head of the law enforcement agency, tilted his head and asked.
“How long will it take this time?”
“How long do you think it will take, little brother?”
Peng Kang-wi asked his younger brother, Peng Dae-wi.
“Maybe since I couldn’t solve it, he can’t solve it either?”
Peng Dae-wi smiled brightly.
Of course, the guy here was referring to Hanbin.
Peng Dae-wi recalled the old days.
There was a time when Pyeongdae-wi and Pyeonggang-wi competed over Sogaju.
At that time, Peng Dawei had not even passed the first test.
