Episode 263. The Kind Lord (2)

Because of Seolhwa and Cheonghwa, it seemed like the landscape of the martial arts world would change.

Hanbin wasn’t really thinking about the cause of the change.

Changes in the story too.

The changes in Cheonghwa were all because of Hanbin.

After a moment of thought, Hanbin raised the corners of his lips.

Hanbin came up with a way to easily use the madness and evil spirits that could strike at any time.

Now that I look at it, it’s clear that Seolhwa and the others are natural enemies.

Hanbin decided that from now on, whenever he entrusted work to Gwanggae or Akbigwang, he would have them tell him to do it.

As Hanbin smiled, Dang Gi-myeong, who was watching the situation from the side, opened his eyes wide.

However, the reason he was surprised was different from Hanbin.

It was not important to Dang Gam-myeong that Seol-hwa and Cheong-hwa felt compassion for the pigeon.

Cheonghwa’s courage in jumping into the masters’ fight was extraordinary, and Seolhwa’s martial arts skills in blocking the two masters’ weapons with her dagger were amazing.

The most surprising thing was the sermon of the story.

Seolhwa kept nagging Gwanggae and Akbigwang.

Could a maid usually nag a martial arts master with such confidence?

The name of the party was the most confusing at this point.

Seolhwa didn’t stop talking, paying no attention to the eyes of those around her.

It was as if he was telling Gwanggae and Akbigwang everything he had never told them before.

Gwanggae and Akbigwang had to continue listening to Seolhwa’s sermon without being able to offer any proper rebuttal.

“So, anyone who looks at this… … .”

Seeing Seol-hwa pecking away little by little, Han-bin felt sorry for Gwang-gae and Ak-bigwang.

After half an hour had passed, Hanbin came forward.

Is this an illusion?

Looking closely, I could see that Akbigwang and Gwanggae’s ears were shaking wildly.

It seemed as if he was instinctively rejecting Seolhwa’s nagging.

“hmm.”

Seolhwa glanced back at Hanbin’s cough.

Seol-hwa, who saw Han-bin, was startled and laughed.

“Hehehe, did I talk a little too long?”

“It wasn’t just a little bit, it was really long. I guess we have a lot of stories to tell.”

“no.”

“By the way, let me check the transcript.”

“A letter?”

“Is that thing hanging from the dove a book?”

Everyone’s eyes widened at Hanbin’s words.

Because Akbigwang, Gwanggae, Seolhwa, and Cheonghwa were all tangled up, they were all unable to confirm the seal hanging from the pigeon’s leg.

The first one to answer was Gwanggae.

“Isn’t this the type of letter we use?”

As Gwanggae, who was tilting his head, tried to release the envelope from the pigeon’s leg in Cheonghwa’s hand, Hanbin waved his hand.

“Stop.”

“Oh, that’s a surprise.”

The light was so startled that it made him step back.

Hanbin turned his head and looked at Danggi Myeong.

“Your Majesty, please check.”

“Me?”

“I’m saying this just in case it’s poisonous.”

“Hmm, poison… … .”

“Didn’t I tell you? Everything could be a trap.”

“Yes, I understand, Your Majesty.”

The man nodded and carefully grabbed the pigeon’s leg.

Danggi-myeong, who had briefly checked the letter, looked at Hanbin.

“Just as Prince Peng said, there is a small amount of poison in it.”

“Then was the pigeon poisoned?”

“It was buried in the cork of the letter box. Can you see it here?”

After finishing speaking, Danggi-myeong showed the cork.

As the name suggests, the plug was covered in sticky soot.

When Gwanggae saw that, he quickly stepped back.

At that sight, Danggi-myeong said.

“As long as it doesn’t touch your skin, it’s fine. Pigeons seem to have been poisoned by this poison too.”

“A pigeon is being attacked?”

“As you can see here, it looks like the ink has brushed past and scratched the seal.”

“Hmm, I see.”

“The poison was sprayed onto the pigeon when the seal was scratched. This pigeon must have flown in during the fight between the warriors. Well, this is a poison called Samhwasan, but it’s not a very serious poison to worry about.”

The name Tangi pointed to the wings of a pigeon passing through the precincts.

The pigeon’s wings were discolored black.

But it didn’t seem to be extremely poisonous, as it didn’t kill him right away.

For that reason, Gwanggae continued to stay near Danggimyeong.

Gwanggae continued asking questions, his chest clearing as if relieved.

“Huh, so you’re saying it’s not a dangerous poison?”

“Well, if a normal person touches it, they will suffer from a high fever for several months and then die. And they don’t even know the cause. The poison seeps through the skin and slowly dissolves the internal organs.”

“Ouch, move it over there.”

Gwanggae took another step back.

Danggi-myeong looked at Gwanggae as if he was dumbfounded by the sight.

“This poison called Samhwasan does not cause poisoning by just breathing it in. However… … .”

When the words trailed off, Akbigwang asked again.

“Please speak quickly.”

“I think we’ll need an antidote to check the inscription inside.”

“ah.”

“Samhwasan is a somewhat old poison, so it seems that we will need to obtain additional ingredients to make an antidote. So, let’s go to the village first… … .”

At that moment, Hanbin quickly snatched the envelope.

“Please give it to me. I will check it.”

“To check the text, the antidote is… … .”

“I think I’ve figured out a way, so leave it to me for now.”

Hanbin closed the letter box again, smiled brightly, and disappeared from the place, leaving only the sound of the hem of his clothes rustling behind.

Sasa-sak.

At that sight, Akbigwang looked at Gwanggae and spoke softly.

“As expected, the master of lightness doesn’t even raise a speck of dust. Unlike others… … .”

“It’s just dry and dusty.”

“Don’t always blame the sewer or the environment.”

“hmm.”

Gwanggae turned his head sharply.

Gwanggae actually had nothing to say. Half of what he said was just excuses.

Gwanggae could walk eighteen steps without raising a dust storm on a mountain path with thick grass. However, he was not confident on a dirt path like this one.

However, Hanbin performed light attacks without leaving a trace regardless of the environment.

There was no excuse for this.

Gwanggae stared blankly in the direction where Hanbin had disappeared and clenched his fist.

No matter how hard I strained my eyes, I couldn’t see any signs or traces from the direction where Hanbin had disappeared.

Then someone pats Gwanggae on the shoulder.

“Have you seen the wall?”

“… … .”

“Until I met Prince Peng, I thought there was no one with more courage than me.”

“… … .”

“But when I met Prince Peng, I felt a wall, even if only for a moment.”

“Haha, I think your real personality is more genuine than your first impression.”

Gwanggae looked at Akbigwang and laughed.

The two found something in common with each other.

It was when the two of them were laughing like that.

An urgent cry was heard.

“Ouch! Watch out!”

At that voice, Gwanggae turned his head.

There, Danggi-myeong was standing in front of Cheonghwa.

Cheonghwa tilted her head as if to ask what the problem was.

At that sight, Danggi-myeong shouted.

“Put the pigeon down! And don’t grab its wings. When I make the remedy… … .”

“Why the pigeon? It’s all better now.”

“All the pigeons addicted to Samhwasan are cured? That can’t be true. That’s your mistake… … .”

The name of the party was left speechless.

Because the pigeon’s wings returned to their original color.

‘if?’

Danggi-myeong looked at the place where Hanbin had disappeared.

I was mistaken in thinking that Hanbin had taken some action.

Of course, the pigeon’s wings regained their original color because the blue had absorbed all the poison that had seeped into the pigeon’s wings.

What is Hanbin doing?

He was holding a letter a little way away from the group.

But instead of reading the book, he was staring into space.

Because the moment I touched Samhwasan, the words appeared.

[My understanding of poison has improved. I am one step closer to becoming a poison master.]

It was a moment when understanding of the blocked poison increased.

[Poison: Thirty-three]

This time the number Sam has increased.

I don’t know how much higher I have to go to reach Mandokjiche, but what’s important is that I’ve taken one step closer.

Hanbin turned his gaze and checked the letter.

-At Yeongdansan, they tried to eliminate the Sacheondangga group, but failed. The next plan is… … .

Hanbin narrowed his eyes.

Because the following sentence was deleted.

The entire book is damaged and its contents are damaged.

What we can tell from this book is that someone was trying to harm the Sacheondangga.

But it ended in failure?

Hanbin took a quick look around Yeongdansan Mountain.

A considerable amount of blood was in the air around me.

It was clear that the enemies had been defeated by the Apostles.

If Dokgo-ryeon had stepped forward directly, they would have been defeated without being able to identify their opponent.

In some ways, flying the carrier was a great feat.

In addition, if there were any survivors among the group that attempted to attack Sacheondangga, they would have certainly been captured by the Sadorien.

The Apostolic Union will be able to obtain some information through this.

If so, it might be possible to recognize more quickly that there is a public enemy.

This is what Hanbin wanted.

Hanbin shrugged.

“I’ve been feeling lucky lately.”

Hanbin, who had been laughing, disappeared from his seat.

* * *

As time passed and we were drinking a cup of tea, Hanbin appeared among the group.

But the number of people increased.

Among them, Hanbin knew one and did not know the other.

Well, the one thing these new arrivals had in common was that they were both beggars.

When Hanbin appeared, Gwanggae called them.

“Come here and say hello.”

As they ran towards him, Gwanggae continued speaking.

“These are my new disciples. This is Peng Gongzi, who is like a brother to me.”

As soon as Gwanggae finished speaking, the two of them simultaneously threw their lottery tickets.

“My name is Jang Oh, the disciple of Master Gwanggae.”

“My name is Hyun-gae.”

Hanbin greeted them with a round of applause.

“I am Peng Hanbin, the Four Princes of Habuk Pengga. It is my first time greeting you, but I saw you last time, right?”

At those words, Gwanggae tilted his head.

“When did you see it?”

“I saw you at Cheonsujang. You’re the friends that Master brought. I heard you said you’d help find Master.”

“Oh, you are too much, sir. What am I supposed to do if you ask me, who has such a bright future ahead of me, to take on a disciple…?”

Gwanggae, who had been spreading his arms as if he was being treated unfairly, trailed off.

Although he was forced to take over because of Hong Chil-gae, he was still their master.

I thought I had said something I shouldn’t have said to my disciple.

Hanbin chuckled at that sight.

“You’ve grown a lot, Gwanggae.”

“What am I?”

“Well, since it’s a compliment, let’s go get something to eat.”

After finishing speaking, Hanbin glanced behind him and gestured.

“Jangsam, come here. Your little brother is here, so you should pretend to notice.”

Jang Sam came to Han Bin’s side.

Jang Sam, who slightly bowed his head to Han Bin, looked at Jang Oh.

“How have you been?”

“What are you doing here, hyung?”

Jang-oh turned his head.

His eyes were filled with respect, not the disdain he had previously shown for Jang Sam.

I felt a bit envious of my older brother, who had found a place in the unmanned world he had so longed for.

But, I didn’t want to admit it.

It is incomprehensible that Jang Sam, who used to play at the bottom of the third-rate ladder, could surpass himself.

At that moment, Jang Sam’s hand mercilessly struck the back of Jang Oh’s head.

Bam!

Jang-oh stumbled backwards and shouted at the sudden beating.

“Why are you hitting me?”

“What kind of attitude is that toward your senior? Before I was your older brother, I was your senior in the martial arts world. Once you step foot in the martial arts world, you should be properly respectful!”

Jang Sam, who had stopped talking, turned his head and looked at Gwanggae.

“My lord, please teach me the etiquette of the martial world thoroughly.”

“That’s right. But somehow, I feel like I’m starting to resemble Prince Peng, Master Jang.”

“Well, that’s right. I guess it’s natural for a subordinate to resemble his master.”

Jang Sam bowed his head slightly to Gwanggae and then turned around.

As Jang Sam left, Gwanggae spoke in a low voice.

“Jang-oh, starting today, you will have special training. We will thoroughly teach you the basics of begging. Until then, don’t even think about holding a bowl of rice in your hand.”

At Gwanggae’s words, Jangsam blankly looked up at the sky.

Then, as if something occurred to him, Gwanggae spoke to them both.

“You guys, put up the pigeons you brought.”

When Gwanggae pointed to Hanbin’s carriage, Jang-oh and Hyeon-gae brought a birdhouse with pigeons in it.
