643. Nowhere to Return (3)

Hanbin chuckled at Choa’s question.

“I’m not that old… … The important thing is that my method is a temporary measure. I can only stop Baek-ui Geumje for a moment. I can’t take responsibility for what happens after that.”

“What if it’s just a moment?”

“I don’t have enough time to talk to you.”

“What happens when the sun goes down?”

“The golden rule that Baek-i planted will be activated.”

“Can’t you break that gold chain with your own strength?”

“Why are you asking that now? Wasn’t it that you had no intention of lifting the ban in the first place?”

“If what you said about Gae-Ri is true, I want revenge.”

“It sounds like you still don’t believe it.”

“I can’t believe it. No, I don’t want to believe it.”

After finishing speaking, Choa gritted her teeth.

At that sight, Hanbin continued speaking.

“You asked if I could not solve the problem? To be exact, I can.”

“Then let me go.”

“Imagine dropping a thousand different locks and a thousand keys into a forest. What are the odds that you’ll find the right key for the right hole? The problem is that if the key doesn’t fit the hole, the lock will break.”

“Is the lock my head?”

“Yes. Without a proper prescription, you can’t get the gold in your head out.”

“Then there is no way out now. Since the incense burner is gone, there is no way to remove the gold.”

“Incense burner? What does that mean?”

“There are three main reasons why we came here.”

“What about three?”

“The first thing was to kill the remnants of the White Dragon, the second was to find the incense burner, and the third was… … .”

As if she recognized the passing of time, Choa continued explaining without stopping.

Hanbin’s eyes lit up during Choa’s explanation.

It was right when the description of the incense burner came up.

It seemed that the treasure they were looking for was the incense burner.

But she didn’t stop talking.

The description of the incense burner was simple.

It is said that all the gold planted in the background can be dissolved with one incense burner.

At first, I didn’t think there was anything so great about breaking the gold standard they had set.

But when I heard the story that followed, the meaning of being able to dissolve all the gold that Baek Kyung had planted with just one incense burner was greater than I thought.

It is said that the captains of Baekgyeong use different methods of gold.

It is said that they use not just one type of solitude, but several types of solitude, and even use different soothsaying techniques.

So the story was that if there was an incense burner that could release all the gold, it would give one a higher position than other ship owners.

Listening to the story, it seems that the ship owners of Baekgyeong were in a strange competitive relationship.

After finishing her explanation, Choa took a deep breath for a moment.

As such, Choa continued to explain a lot in a short period of time without stopping.

When she regained her breath as if taking a deep breath, Hanbin finally opened his lips.

“What a pity. The incense burner must have been buried down there.”

“You can’t break the ban just by having an incense burner.”

“Then what do you need?”

“You need the Samhwangcho. You need to put the Samhwangcho in the incense burner to see its original effect.”

“hmm.”

“Is this the first time you’ve heard of this herb? Well then, that’s it… … .”

“What does that mean?”

“You can’t know your enemy and be under him. I’ll make the decision with my own hands while I still have time.”

After finishing speaking, Choa put her hand into her bosom.

When her hand came out, the silver dagger was shining with anticipation.

Without hesitation, he brought the tip of the dagger towards his own neck.

Whoosh!

Of course, Choa’s dagger stopped right in front of her neck.

Because Hanbin’s hands were faster than her dagger.

Hanbin took his index finger off her jianjing point.

In the blink of an eye, Hanbin bled.

The eyes of Choa, who had turned into a stone statue, trembled slightly.

“Ji, what are you doing now? If not now, I can’t die.”

These words were Choa’s true feelings.

I told Hanbin that I couldn’t believe it, but it was the words of an open-minded person.

I couldn’t help but believe the story that Baek Kyung had destroyed his own village.

If that was the case, it was clear that the family members there would have also lost their lives.

It is impossible to continue to operate as a puppet of the enemy.

In that case, it would have been better to just end my life.

However, her intention to commit suicide was dashed when Hanbin subdued Ma-hyeol.

If the golden spell that Baek-i had placed activates again after a while, he won’t be able to die.

If you act contrary to Baek’s instructions, you will suffer the same pain and not even be able to die.

Cho-ah hated Han-bin for stopping her from committing suicide.

At that time, Hanbin continued speaking nonchalantly.

“When you leave, shouldn’t you say thank you before you leave?”

“What does that mean?”

“You saved me from being a pool of blood inside.”

“… … .”

“Not only that, you even took off the gold chain I had put up.”

When Hanbin pointed to Choa’s head, she continued speaking with a puzzled expression.

“Why are you telling me that… … .”

“I’m not done telling you my story yet. I’ve already told you the truth. How can I repay this favor?”

“I will repay you in the next life.”

Choa gritted her teeth.

Hanbin opened his hand wide and placed it in front of Choa’s face.

When Cho-ah looked away as if she couldn’t figure out what to do, Han-bin folded his fingers, leaving only his little finger open.

“Then promise me.”

“What do you promise?”

“I will repay the favor!”

“Now, just a moment. There’s not much time left. I said it was just a moment.”

“But promise me first.”

“You said you promised.”

“Not in words, but in writing!”

Hanbin snapped his fingers after finishing speaking.

Exactly!

Seolhwa came running carrying a bundle as if she had been waiting.

That wasn’t all.

Seolhwa opened the bundle in front of Hanbin with a smile on her face.

The time it took for Hanbin to pick up the brush was literally a moment.

Sasa Sak.

Hanbin’s brush moved across the paper.

It was as if a strong energy was trapped at the tip of the brush, and each letter had a sense of momentum.

Choa couldn’t lower her head because she was under the control of the demon blood.

I could only vaguely feel the letters increasing in number.

Of course, Seol-hwa, who was watching from the side, had a pleased smile on her face.

In some ways, it seemed like Sulwha was more obsessed with the contract than Hanbin.

It was true.

There was only one reason why Seolhwa was obsessed with the contract.

It was competitiveness.

Hanbin’s contract became more and more vicious as the days went by.

The recent contract was more vicious than the previous one with Sulwha.

In short, a slave contract!

If contracts these days are considered slave contracts, Seolhwa thought that the contract she had made was like a contract for a commoner.

It is about feeling joy in your own contract while looking at other people’s contracts.

Well, it was the same with Cheonghwa.

I always felt a sense of pride when I saw other people writing contracts.

As their eyes were shining like that, Jacheong, who was next to Choa, opened his mouth.

Because the situation itself was so strange.

As the leader of the volunteer movement, Choa was paying close attention to what was happening.

Why are you suddenly signing a contract in a situation where things were going seriously wrong?

It made no sense to hand over a document while a person was dying.

As Ja-cheong and the rest of Baekgyeong’s warriors opened their eyes wide, Han-bin’s brush tip stopped.

widely.

“Okay, that’s enough.”

After finishing speaking, Hanbin snatched the dagger that Choa was holding and threw it aside.

There was a volunteer there and she reflexively took the dagger.

Hanbin, who had put away his dagger, cleared his throat and continued speaking.

“Sign here.”

“Oh, I see. If I sign here, can I die?”

“Whether you die or not, it’s your freedom after you sign.”

“all right.”

Choa nodded without any emotion.

I was going to die anyway.

Signing one contract wouldn’t make a difference.

Choa held the brush with a soulless expression.

Swish swish.

Choa signed without any hesitation and without even checking the contents.

She winked at her subordinate, Ja-cheong.

Jacheong threw a dagger and Choa snatched it out of the air.

She turned the tip of the dagger towards herself again.

At that moment, Hanbin’s hand moved quietly again.

Pick!

As Hanbin drew blood again, Choa’s hand stopped.

“It’s different from what was promised.”

“The contract is effective for three years from now. It doesn’t say anything about the next life.”

“No matter what, I can’t help you while you’re under the ban.”

“Contracts take precedence over money!”

“What is that… … .”

“This is my rule. So you must repay the favor and die.”

“Oh my god, this is crazy!”

Choa gritted her teeth.

For a moment, her eyes suddenly became cloudy.

At the same time, her temples began to twitch.

Even though she had subdued the demon, Cho-ah’s shoulders were slightly trembling.

Jacheong came over urgently and supported Choa.

While supporting Cho-ah, Jacheong opened his eyes sharply.

“What the heck? I thought you were a good person… … .”

“Am I a good person? What about you?”

“… … .”

“Now is not the time to judge what is good or bad.”

“I’d rather… … .”

Ja-cheong was left speechless.

Because Hanbin also subdued her demon blood.

At the same time, Seolhwa, who was standing next to him, took the dagger out of Jacheong’s hand.

Unable to bear the pain of his superior, Jacheong tried to take Cho-ah’s life with his own hands.

As the pain grew, changes began to occur in Choa’s body.

Although she didn’t make a sound, Choa rolled her eyes and started to stir.

Hanbin nodded as if he had expected it.

The method that temporarily blocked the ban on Baek Kyung hanging over Cho Ah was none other than the black ink of Geun Mok Ja Heuk.

A black ink plant that can plant a seed in the opponent’s mind.

What Hanbin planted this time was not poison, but a sap of recovery.

The blessing of fortune temporarily blocked the blow from the golden emperor.

Now that its effects have worn off, the curse of blessings has disappeared.

Hanbin squatted down in front of her without any problem.

Hanbin, who had been quietly looking at Choa, nodded.

Although he informed her of the situation in the North Sea, it was uncertain whether Choa would accept it.

Even the act of committing suicide can be an act.

The only way to confirm Cho-ah’s feelings was to see if the ban Baek had put in place would be activated.

If you harbored hatred towards Baek, the ban would be activated, otherwise you would just pretend to.

In Hanbin’s view, it was the former.

Now that I had confirmed my true feelings, I had to move on to the next step.

Hanbin, who had been observing her condition for a moment, took out a small iron box from his arms.

Hanbin opened the box.

Swish.

As the box opened to the side, Hanbin looked at Seolhwa.

Seolhwa nodded and handed over the leather pouch.

Hanbin took the leather pouch.

There were three leather pouches in total that Seolhwa handed over.

Hanbin took out a few strands of herbs from three leather pouches.

These were the three herbs that made up Samhwangcho.

I laid out the herbs neatly and carefully made three small bundles.

Hanbin put the dried herbs, which were round and shaped like pills, into the box.

Then he placed the box in front of Choa.

Seol-hwa, who was watching from the side, asked.

“Confucius, what is that?”

“It’s probably the incense burner that the child was talking about.”

“What does it mean to be the same?”

“Because no one among the martial artists has seen Shinsunro, one of the Seven Great Secrets of the Murim.”

“What, what does that mean?”
