Episode 237. Cheonsujang (9)

Hanbin shrugged his shoulders at that sight and said.

“And when I say we share the profits, I don’t mean simply sharing the profits.”

“… … .”

Hwangbo Man-cheong looked at Han-bin as if he found it amusing without saying anything.

Hanbin continued speaking with a smile.

“The idea is to share not only the benefits but also all the benefits that will come from it.”

The idea of ​​derived profits was, in a way, an abstract meaning.

As Hanbin smiled brightly, Hwangbo Mancheong quietly looked up at the sky.

It was nice to have found the family treasure, but I felt like I had taken a bait.

Now the mountainside is completely dark.

The stars seemed to be twinkling more brightly today than usual.

As Hwangbo Man-cheong looked up at the sky, Han-bin’s gaze turned to the scattered pieces of the heavenly palace.

Except for one box left, it was now just a piece of Hyuncheol.

But Hanbin swallowed.

The man wearing the dragon’s uniform held a sword in his hand, but he also carried a heavenly bow on his back.

The use of the celestial palace seemed to be in the remaining boxes.

As Hwangbo Man-cheong, who was looking at the sky, turned his gaze, Han-bin picked up the last box.

The box was about the size of two previous boxes combined.

Hanbin grabbed the upper part and applied slight force.

Bam.

At that moment, a strange sound was heard between the boxes.

what?

Hanbin narrowed his eyes and looked at the box.

Unlike before, the box was tightly closed.

There was even a strange smell coming from there.

Well, it smelled familiar.

Hanbin quickly stopped moving.

Then I examined the box, concentrating on my sense of smell.

Hanbin quietly put the box down and crossed his arms.

The smell now emanating from between the boxes was none other than the smell of sulfuric acid.

There was a faint smell of burning leather and burning paper.

It was clear that the device would spill sulfuric acid and damage the contents if opened by force.

The contents could no longer be damaged.

Hanbin could instinctively feel that what was inside was something he absolutely needed.

Hanbin uncrossed his arms and carefully began to look for a way to open the box.

At that moment, Hanbin’s eyes caught sight of a hole at the top of a small box.

The hole was too small for a key to fit through.

But somehow, the size of the hole felt familiar to Hanbin.

If it’s a key that can fit into a hole that small…

Hanbin touched the necklace without realizing it.

The end of the necklace that Hanbin was touching had a gold bead on it.

Hanbin, who had been thinking for a moment, looked at Hwangbo Mancheong as if he had made up his mind.

Hwangbo Man-cheong asked with those eyes.

“Is there anything I can do to help?”

“It’s okay. However, if you try to force open the last box, the contents will likely be damaged, sir.”

“Then what should we do?”

“I think we need to clarify things here.”

“What do you mean by tidying up?”

“The contract I was talking about earlier.”

“Hmm, didn’t you say we should split all the profits that will come from now on?”

Hwangbo Man-cheong asked, hiding his expression.

Behind that expression, of course, there was anxiety.

What Hanbin said was that if you hang it on your ear, it’s an earring, and if you hang it on your nose, it’s a nose ring.

Hanbin opened his mouth with a kind face as if he knew all of the feelings he was hiding.

“I think it would be best to just split it into two here, without any conditions.”

“Two? What do you mean?”

“You take two boxes, sir, and I will take the remaining boxes.”

“Hmm, is that okay?”

Hwangbo Man-cheong checked the box Han-bin was holding again.

There was definitely a smell of sulfuric acid coming out.

The problem wasn’t that it would be damaged when opened, but that it would already be damaged.

Anyone could see that this was a losing business for Hanbin.

“Well, I’m fine with it, as long as you understand.”

“I will definitely repay this favor.”

“What a favor. I just did what I had to do.”

Hanbin waved his hand. A faint smile appeared on his lips.

Seolhwa, who was watching the scene from afar, tilted her head.

Is Hanbin doing something that will harm him?

That was impossible.

Rather than hearing the news that the world would end overnight, it was more unrealistic for Hanbin to suffer a loss.

But no matter how much I thought about it, it was not beneficial for Hanbin.

When I glanced to the side, Cheonghwa was tilting her head just like Seolhwa.

Although they had only been together for a short time, Cheonghwa had already figured out Hanbin’s personality.

While everyone was tilting their heads, Hanbin continued speaking.

“Well, if you think of it as a favor, you can give me the piece of the Heavenly Palace that you can no longer use.”

“Ah, a piece of heaven… … .”

“Well, if you don’t like it, then there’s nothing I can do. If you still want to have a shattered Go board like this, then I’ll reconsider… … .”

Hanbin’s speech became faster and faster.

Hwangbo Man-cheong, who sensed something unusual, quickly nodded his head.

“Oh, I see. Let’s do that.”

Hanbin slightly bowed his head at Hwangbo Mancheong’s answer.

“thank you.”

To anyone who saw it, it was the expression of a child who had received pocket money that was supposed to be given.

Well, judging from the expression on his face, it was Hwangbo Mancheong who benefited.

That would be the case, because the two boxes Hanbin gave him contained the family’s secrets that were only known as legends.

I will have to find out later if it is the real family treasure and sword, but the fact that I have obtained it makes my heart race.

After collecting the emergency kit and blueprints in the box, Hwangbo Man-cheong’s gaze changed as if he remembered something.

“But you know.”

“Please speak,”

“The blacksmith who will make the sword in this drawing is in Gangbuk… … .”

Before he could finish speaking, Hanbin answered.

“there is.”

“There is such a blacksmith? Where on earth is he?”

When Hwangbo Man-cheong asked urgently, Han Bin answered.

“There is a blacksmith who has been known as a master craftsman for generations. So… … .”

Hanbin continued to explain in considerable detail.

The place Hanbin described was Jeong Cheol-min’s blacksmith shop.

He was a master craftsman who created Wol-ah, and was also a supporter of Hanbin in both material and spiritual ways.

It was clear that if it was a drawing of the Gujigeom, he would readily accept it.

He wanted to create creative things rather than just do simple tasks.

There was another calculation behind recommending Jeong Cheol-min there.

Hanbin had a plan to simplify the Gujigeom a bit and distribute it to the members of the Red Blood Tiger Corps.

If you make a Gujigeom in advance, Hanbin’s request will be easier, so it’s killing two birds with one stone.

After hearing Hanbin’s explanation, Hwangbo Mancheong stood up from his seat with his eyes shining.

“I guess I should go now.”

“Sir, it’s late. Why don’t you go and rest?”

“No. I need to see the Gujigeom with my own eyes as soon as possible.”

After finishing speaking, Hwangbo Man-cheong quickly disappeared into the darkness.

phut!

Because he was running so fast and making a noise, startled mountain birds flew up here and there, screaming.

Splash.

As Hwangbo Man-cheong left, Han-bin looked around at the surroundings illuminated by the flickering bonfire.

The surroundings were in shambles, as if a storm had passed through.

That would be the case, since it was the place where Hanbin and Hwangbo Mancheong had a duel.

It was not just a fight, it was a fierce fight that even ruptured the water veins running through the floor.

I was so busy disassembling the heavenly palace made of iron that I didn’t even notice it.

Looking to the side, I saw water flowing out through the hole Hanbin had made.

Uruk.

The traces Hanbin made became a small stream that flowed down the mountainside.

I glanced to the side and saw a sleeping blue heron waking up and dipping its head in the newly created stream.

As if nothing happened.

Hanbin lay down with his arms folded behind his head.

Hanbin, who had been looking at the night sky for a long time, said.

“I guess today, here… … .”

“I guess I’ll have to sleep out, Your Majesty.”

Seolhwa took Hanbin’s words as if she had been waiting for it.

Seeing that, Cheonghwa, who was next to him, noticed and prepared a place around the campfire.

Hanbin began to collect the pieces of the Heavenly Palace that were scattered here and there.

What’s strange is that he was slowly listing things in order, even though they could have been swept away however they wanted.

Seolhwa asked at that sight.

“Master, why do you display them so carefully? Why don’t you just put them in your pocket… .”

“You have to put them in order so they fit as they were originally.”

“You mean to put it back to the original?”

“It’s like this.”

Hanbin put together the pieces of the broken Heavenly Palace.

Crunch.

With a refreshing sound, the pieces of the Heavenly Palace came together as if they had been torn apart.

Seolhwa opened her mouth at the sight.

“Was it possible to restore it to its original state? But how did you know of such a method?”

“Yes, there is a blacksmith proverb that says:

“What do you mean?”

“They say assembly is the reverse of disassembly.”

“ah.”

Seolhwa couldn’t say anything and just exclaimed.

At her surprised expression, Cheonghwa, who was next to her, quickly took out a piece of candy and a skewer.

“I hid this. Eat it, Sister.”

“Oh, thank you.”

Seolhwa nodded.

Hanbin returned the palace to its original state and recalled the secret and the blueprint.

In fact, although they were said to have been given to Hwangbo Mancheong, they were things that Hanbin had no use for.

That drawing and the Hwangryongsashippalsu were already in Hanbin’s head.

Seolhwa and Cheonghwa fell asleep early, perhaps because of the warmth from the campfire.

Hanbin quickly took out the last box.

Then he opened the gold bead hanging around his neck.

Inside was a small key and a golden spoon.

Hanbin placed the golden poem on top of the last box.

At that moment, the top of the box turned with a noise.

Squeak.

The last box had to be opened by turning it, not from the bottom up.

Of course, it was a structure that could only be opened with the right key.

Hanbin muttered to himself as if he found it amusing.

“Is it fate… … .”

This was sincere.

Open the treasure of the Hwangbo family with a golden poem that you don’t know where to use?

If it wasn’t fate, then I had to say it was luck.

Only when the box was fully opened could I see what was inside.

Inside, the leather was rolled up.

At first glance, the scroll seemed to have holes in it, thanks to the sulfuric acid that had fallen from above.

Hanbin unfolded the leather.

There were several lines tangled together on the leather.

Looking closely, I realized that this was a map of the Central Plains.

It wasn’t a military map, but it was too detailed to be called a general map.

However, there was no sign on the map.

Why would you leave a map in this box?

Hanbin thought that the existence of a map was meant to indicate specific locations.

Hanbin focused more on the map.

Hanbin, who had been watching for a while, opened his mouth.

There were two holes in the map.

It appeared to be a damaged part due to sulfuric acid that fell from the box.

Perhaps one of the two damaged sections was the one the map was pointing to.

Hanbin held it up to the campfire to see where the hole was.

Hanbin, who checked the map, opened his mouth without realizing it.

“ah.”

Seolhwa rubbed her eyes at the inexplicable exclamation.

“Confucius, did you call me?”

“no.”

Hanbin waved his hands and turned his head from side to side.

In the places Hanbin looked, there was Habukpengga and Sacheondangga respectively.

Those were the two damaged areas on the map.

Hanbin had to change his guess.

The area pointed to on the map could have been both Habukpangga and Sacheondangga.

That would be the case, since Hanbin had gained quite a bit of luck in the basement of the Tiger Cave of the Habuk Pengga.

* * *

It was not until lunchtime the next day that Hanbin and his party arrived at the entrance to the village where Cheonsujang was visible.

Hanbin tilted his head as he looked at the road leading to Cheonsujang.

“Is this the right way to Cheonsujang?”

“It seems right, but something is strange, Your Majesty.”

Seolhwa tilted her head and looked at the road leading to Cheonsujang.

They are at the entrance to the path leading to Cheonsujang.

From the entrance, there was quite a distance to the place where the water fountain was.

But people I had never seen before were moving around busily.

It’s been a few years since everyone left because of the extreme heat.

No one has moved here yet.

It was an empty village even when Hanbin left for Jangunhyeon on a mission.

But now it was strangely lively.
