Habuk Pengga Swordsman Genius - Chapter 623
Only Noblemtl
623 Fishing is all about bait (3)
The man who asked the question, Baekryong, crossed his arms and looked at Hanbin.
A ray of doubt in his eyes.
It was like the gaze of a policeman in a government office.
Hanbin also looked around him.
Their luggage was all around them.
The most striking of these was the coffin made of ten-year-old jade.
Hanbin treated him while he was sleeping in a coffin made of Eternal Ice Jade.
Judging from the fact that the coffin that had been in the waiting room was brought to this pavilion, it seemed like the coffin was an important object.
The time it took for them to observe each other was a split second.
Before they could even blink an eye, they had smiles on their faces.
Hanbin opened his mouth first.
“That’s right. I’m from the Habukpang family. My family calls me the youngest.”
“I am the youngest of the Habuk Peng family… … .”
The man wiped the smile off his lips and tilted his upper body.
Hanbin shrugged at that sight.
That would be the case, since the people of Bukhae would not know the youngest of the Habuk Peng family.
Even if I had heard it, it probably wouldn’t have been a good story.
“You still don’t believe that I’m from Habukpangga. Or have you never heard of me?”
“I was surprised to hear that you were a man from the Habuk Peng family who had a reputation for being a great warrior in the Ohodan Gate. Don’t be upset.”
There was still a trace of doubt in the eyes of the man who laughed heartily.
It was unbelievable that a man from Habuk Pengga, known as the Tiger of Habuk, had cured himself.
The Habuk Peng family is a family that creates patients, not a family that treats patients.
Hanbin also fully understood that point.
The day I treated him in the training room, I heard some information about Baekryong from Yeorahee.
But Hanbin didn’t tell the other person about himself.
The fact that the direct descendants of the Habuk Peng family used swordsmanship was a reality that made people tilt their heads in confusion.
And on top of that, medicine?
There are probably more people who don’t believe it.
Hanbin looked back and forth between the man and Yeorahee.
There was one thing I had to get from them first.
Yeorahee promised that she would tell her brother Baek Kyung’s weakness when he woke up.
If I recall correctly, he didn’t say he would tell me, but that he would give it to me.
Perhaps what they have is not knowledge but objects.
Hanbin’s guess was that there was definitely something he could negotiate with Baek Kyung.
Yeorahee said that to exploit that weakness, you need the right bait.
From Yeorahee’s words, Hanbin was able to guess about her weakness.
In addition, the bait was placed well in the Baekdokjeon.
Hanbin had to prepare his fishing rod before the fish came to the water to put the bait in.
Here, the big fish is the bloodthirsty fish and the fishing rod is the weakness of the white dragon’s white dragon.
What exactly is Baekgyeong’s weakness?
Actually, there was no need to worry.
You’ll be able to check it out soon!
Even while he was thinking about his plan step by step, Hanbin didn’t take his eyes off the other person.
The White Dragon’s master seemed to be carefully observing the situation.
Judging by his cautious attitude, it could have been more difficult than the psychological warfare he had waged with the previous master, A-seong.
In the moment of silence, the man’s eyes changed.
He looked at Hanbin with deep eyes, then stared at Seolhwa behind him for a long time.
Judging from his expression, he seemed more wary of Seolhwa than Hanbin.
The white dragon master’s gaze changed from moment to moment as he looked at Seolhwa.
Hanbin became slightly nervous at those eyes.
Seolhwa is a special assassin from the Heukcheon assassin group.
Most people who knew his identity were wary.
If you go a little further from there, there will be those who draw their swords.
One of the two major assassination groups in the Central Plains is Heukcheon.
Is there any guarantee that none of the people around you who have encountered the same monsters have been affected by Heukcheon?
Hanbin’s head was spinning so much that the wisdom of the deepening section sparkled.
Then the man asked.
“Are you from the North Sea?”
The man’s gaze was directed at Seol-hwa.
Seol-hwa, who was eating candy behind Han-bin, looked around in surprise.
Seolhwa didn’t seem to know who he was referring to.
In fact, it was a question that even Hanbin was embarrassed by.
A question that far exceeded Hanbin’s expectations.
It was natural for Seolhwa to be embarrassed.
The man asked again at that sight.
“I’m talking about you, the maid of the small group here.”
“Me, me?”
Seolhwa stared blankly at the man, holding the candy and skewers in her hands.
The man waited for Seol-hwa’s answer with quiet eyes.
Seolhwa hesitated for a moment and then said.
“I’ve never been to the North Sea.”
“Hmm, I see… … .”
The man nodded his head.
His gaze left a strangely lingering impression.
Then Hanbin intervened slightly.
“Did that child do something wrong to the Great Swordsman?”
“You look like someone I know… … . It’s nothing!”
The man was embarrassed for the first time.
Hanbin didn’t ask any more questions.
I just waited for him to continue speaking.
The man who had been looking at Seolhwa for a moment turned his gaze.
Again, a moment of silence passed through the thick fog of Baeknyeongjeong.
After a moment, the man continued speaking with a serious expression.
“How much debt do I have left?”
“Debt? What do you mean?”
“I owe you my life. Shouldn’t I repay the debt? Since the bloody men who were guarding Baekdokjeon have been put to sleep by me and Masang, let’s consider the debt partially repaid. Then, it seems like the debt I have to repay won’t be that much… … .”
It seemed that the man and the horseman had subdued the subordinates of the castle guarding the outside of the Baekdokjeon.
Actually, this was something I asked Yeorahee to do.
The man seemed to be paying the price for treating himself with it.
Hanbin glanced at Yeorahee.
Yeorahee also looks flustered.
I could roughly understand the situation.
When the man was asleep, Yeorahee was in charge of Baekryong, but when he woke up, the situation was different.
But the man seemed to be changing his words now.
Hanbin had an ordinary smile on his face that anyone could see.
At that smile, Seol-hwa, who was next to him, slowly turned her head.
It may have seemed like an ordinary smile to others, but Hanbin knew that behind his current smile, there was always an incident behind it.
Hanbin continued speaking.
“I’m sorry, but there is too much balance remaining.”
“The deposit is… … . What an interesting friend.”
“I think it would be good to have a drink first to lighten the mood.”
“You’re good with words there, haha.”
After a moment of laughter, Hanbin touched his waist and pulled out an object.
At that moment, Yeorahee, who was standing next to him, flinched.
For a moment, the tension subsided and curiosity arose at Yeorahee’s expression.
Hanbin noticed the expression and placed the object on the table.
widely.
The object that Hanbin put up was a gourd.
The man also tilted his head.
“Can I ask what this is? Sohyeop.”
“This is Cheon Soo Joo.”
“It’s the first time I’ve seen this kind of alcohol.”
“Well, it’s nothing special, but it’s a drink I put my heart into.”
What Hanbin said was true.
It was a liquor made from the ingredients of radish that contained the extreme heat of Cheonsujang, so there was nothing special about it.
But it was alcohol that had Hanbin and Jang Ja-myeong’s hands in it.
After finishing speaking, Hanbin slightly opened and closed the cork of the bottle.
A warm breeze blew faintly through the cold air.
The man opened his eyes wide.
“Was there such a drink in the Central Plains?”
“There wasn’t any until recently. This is a drink I recently made. Would you like a drink? I’ll give you the first drink as a gift.”
Hanbin picked up the bottle.
When the man nodded, Hanbin handed him the entire bottle.
The opponent received the bottle without any problem.
Then he winked at Seolhwa.
Seolhwa quickly took out two glasses from her bundle and placed them in front of Hanbin and the man.
In a way, Hanbin’s actions were the law of martial arts.
When you share a glass with someone you’ve just met, you hand them the entire bottle. Then, the other person will look at the bottle and the glass.
In the world of martial arts, where you never know when you might open your eyes and get your nose cut off, the beginning of your first masterpiece is often done in this way.
What Hanbin just handed over might not have been a bottle of alcohol, but a yardstick to confirm their trust in each other.
The man rubs the glass in front of him with his index finger.
Then he put the bottle to the tip of his nose.
As soon as the verification was complete, the man’s expression brightened.
He tipped the bottle.
His skillful hands tilting the bottle seemed as if he were playing an instrument.
Slurp.
The flowing wine seemed to flow through an icy valley.
The man lifted his glass.
Then he opened his eyes wide.
“Wow, what a fragrance and taste… … .”
“If you had been in the Eternal Ice Jade for so long, wouldn’t your yang energy have weakened?”
Hanbin pointed to the coffin carved from a jadeite.
The man looked at Hanbin without saying anything.
Then he tilted the bottle again.
The man’s throat trembled as he poured the water into his mouth.
He put down his glass only after the wine in the flask was completely empty.
The man who put down the glass quietly closed his eyes.
Yeorahee narrows her eyes at the man’s sudden actions.
As Yeorahee tried to put her hand on his shoulder, Hanbin continued speaking in a low voice.
“Please wait a moment. He will be melting the veins that were not melted yet.”
“There’s nothing wrong with that, right? Small business.”
“Yes, please wait.”
Hanbin nodded and observed the man.
There are some misconceptions people have about ice skating.
People believe that the masters of ice magic based on the extreme yin yang are so cold that even their blood is cold.
But anyone who knows anything about the North Sea ice sheet knows that this is a misconception.
In order to use the extreme yin energy, an equal amount of yang energy is also needed to protect the blood vessels.
If that balance is disrupted, even the blood vessels will freeze.
That’s exactly the trick the man was used on.
It was when the cold air grew thicker at Baeknyeongjeong.
The man opened his eyes.
His eyes were brighter than before.
He had spent almost half a year with his blood vessels frozen.
No matter how skilled you are, there is no way you can restore every corner of the twisted and frozen vein.
It was obvious that a large broom could not completely sweep away the dust stuck in the corners of a room.
If his true energy was a large broom, Cheon Soo Joo was a thin brush.
Cheonsuju, which holds the polar opposite, has influenced every corner of the veins.
It was after about an hour had passed.
He slowly opened his eyes.
He opened his eyes and nodded his head slightly towards Hanbin.
“Thank you.”
“You don’t need to be thankful. This is also something the Great Hero owes me.”
“Didn’t you say it was a gift earlier?”
“I said the first glass was a gift. You didn’t forget, did you?”
“Heh heh.”
“There is only one thing I want.”
“What is that?”
At that question, Hanbin turned his head and looked at Yeorahee.
“It’s Baekgyeong’s weakness. You promised to overcome Baekgyeong’s weakness, right?”
“I’ll tell my brother first.”
Yeorahee looked at the man.
The man tilted his head slightly at her wink.
It was an expression that asked what he meant.
While their eyes were exchanged, Yeorahee looked at the man and said.
“I promised to hand over Baekgyeong’s weakness when my brother wakes up.”
“then…….”
“Yes, that’s right. This is a promise.”
“Are you in your right mind right now? Are you going to put that burden on Jungwonin?”
“Still, this is a promise.”
“It’s a promise… … But that’s impossible.”
“Has the White Dragon ever broken a promise?”
“But that won’t work.”
Hanbin tilted his head at their words.
There was an annoying word in the middle.
It was the word ‘load’.
The man and Yeorahee gradually raised their voices. They each argued, arguing, as if they didn’t even care about Hanbin.
Now it was time for Hanbin to step forward.
The preparations to change the man’s mind are already complete.
