Chapter 157
##157fury. Nine-Eum Witch (2)
The students who arrived at the Nine-Eum Witch's residence stood awkwardly, staring at each other..
‘Why did you bring us here??’
‘I won't suddenly change and kill you.…….’
Unlike Hyeolsu-gwiong, who built a palace-like house in the middle of Akin Valley, Gueum Witch's house was extremely desolate..
She lived alone in a cave dug in the middle of a cliff. There were no stairs or ropes, so she had to climb up only by climbing..
The inside of the cave was quite large, but I couldn't find any proper furniture..
“Are you going to keep standing? sit anywhere.”
The students sat in their seats hesitantly at the words of the Nine-Eum Witch..
For some reason, the men are unable to make direct eye contact with the Nine-Eum Witch and avoid it..
Yeomin spoke to Gueum Witch as a representative..
“There is a patient who was poisoned. Can I give you some treatment??”
“Do whatever you want.”
After asking permission, the students laid the unconscious Wi Ji-cheon down on the floor and took turns inhaling energy and massaging his body..
“Wijicheon! Come to your senses! I'm just going to die in a place like this?”
“This bastard. My body is like a ball of fire…….”
Quang! Heonwon-gang slammed his fist on the floor as if he was angry..
“shit. If there is no cancellation, it is of no use..”
“that's right. So move aside.”
Heon Won-gang and Ya Su-hyeok opened their mouths wide open when they saw Yeo-min calmly taking out the seaweed in her arms..
“Well, where did you get that from??”
“I took a peek earlier when everyone was distracted..”
Yeo-min made Wi Ji-cheon sit up, opened his mouth, and poured in the medicine..
Then, he placed it on Wijicheon's back and breathed internal energy into it, allowing the medicinal energy to quickly spread throughout the body..
But it wasn't easy because I had very little strength left..
Yeomin said with a tired expression..
“The poison has spread too much. We need to use internal energy to spread the medicinal energy as quickly as possible.…….”
“We also don’t have much strength left…….”
“shit.”
It was the same for Heon Won-gang and Ya Su-hyeok who were almost out of strength.
When all three were in trouble, the Nine-Eum Witch approached..
“I'll help you.”
When the Nine-Eum Witch touched Wi Ji-cheon's back and breathed energy into it, Wi Ji-cheon's complexion immediately improved..
After a while, Wi Ji-cheon came to his senses with a groan..
“Ugh…….”
“are you okay? How are you feeling??”
“It's cold, it's cold…….”
Heon Won-gang and Ya Su-hyeok took off their tattered upper clothes and covered Wi Ji-cheon's shivering body..
The Nine-Eum Witch clicked her tongue when she saw the wounds on their bodies..
“under. Who is who... … . Heal your wounds first..”
When the Nine-Eum Witch waved her hand, a chest in the corner of the cave opened, and gold spear medicine and bandages flew out of it..
‘emptiness!’
Heogongseopmul (虛空攝物) was the ability to move objects at a distance using energy..
It is an art that can only be used if one has very high control over energy, and the Nine-Eum Witch performed it without difficulty..
It was a scene that clearly showed how high the level of the Nine Eum Witch was..
The students began treating their wounds with the medicine given by the Nine-Eum Witch..
“however… … Why did you save us??”
The person who asked the question was again Yeomin..
Instead of answering, the Nine-Eum Witch stared at Yeo-min..
for quite some time.
Yeo-min felt very burdened by that gaze..
“why so…….”
“sister…….”
“yes, yes?”
The Nine-Eum Witch moved her lips as if she wanted to say something, but eventually shook her head..
“Done. What am I saying to a child?.”
A child.
I don't know how old the Nine-Eum Witch really is, but from the outside, she seemed to be about the same age as the students..
In particular, the atmosphere between Yeomin and Yeomin was so similar that one could almost believe they were sisters..
[Gueum Witch and Yeomin. Don’t they look strangely similar? The face is different but the atmosphere is different…….]
[Senior too? I thought so too.]
Heon Won-gang and Ya Su-hyeok, who could not participate in the women's conversation, secretly exchanged messages and chatted..
[It seems like crazy people have something in common. Did you see it earlier? He's carrying a wall bomb..]
[I heard that the Nine-Eum Witch will tear to death any man she sees... … We'll be fine?]
[If you were going to kill me, you wouldn't have saved me..]
[It might be a witch who brings home a man and sucks his vitality. I didn't hear what Byeokgwi said earlier.?]
[The cub is saying unlucky things... … . If that were the case, would you have given Wi Ji-cheon his inner strength??]
There was no way that an expert of the Nine Eum Witch's level would not have known that the two were sharing the whole sound..
She warned the two men in a cold voice..
“If you exchange messages in front of me one more time, I will freeze you so you can never open your mouth again..”
““Inhale!””
Heon Won-gang and Ya Su-hyeok simultaneously closed their mouths and lowered their heads..
Yeomin clicked her tongue as she looked at her pitiful senior and junior..
“Simple guys. It's obvious what he was talking about, it's obvious. That's all you have in your head?”
“…….”
Heon Won-gang and Ya Su-hyeok blushed with embarrassment at Yeo-min’s comment..
That's how much Kang-ho's rumor about the Nine-Eum Witch was not good..
There was a rumor that she was able to maintain her youth by stealing men's yang energy due to her beautiful appearance and mysterious white hair, as well as her ability to master the ice ball, which requires a lot of yin energy in the body..
But whatever the rumors are, the Nine-Eum Witch was a lifesaver who saved four people..
“sorry! I made a rude misunderstanding towards my lifesaver..”
Heon Wongang, realizing his mistake, bowed his head and apologized..
Then, he grabbed the back of Ya Su-hyuk's head next to him and bowed down with him..
“I apologize too, man..”
“……sorry.”
At the two men's quick and honest apologies, the Nine-Eum Witch looked down at the backs of their heads for a moment and then opened her mouth..
“Done. Because it doesn’t happen for a day or two that I get treated like a prostitute..”
“…….”
“Leave as soon as your wounds are treated. This is the end of my favor. Other guys wouldn't dare come to my house, but it's different for Blood Beast Gwiong. When that old man comes, he'll just hand you over..”
The Nine-Eum Witch did not explain why she was showing favor to the students..
Since it seemed like he didn't want to talk, the students didn't ask either..
However, Yeo-min relaxed her tense muscles and asked the question carefully..
“……Can I stay a little longer? Our teacher hasn’t arrived yet..”
“teacher?”
The Nine-Eum Witch frowned and asked.
At that moment, Yeo-min realized that she had made a mistake, but now that she felt there was no reason to hide it, she spoke honestly..
“We are students at Cheongryong Academy..”
“Cheongryong Academic Hall?”
“in fact…….”
Yeomin told the Gueum Witch the story of how she came to Akingok from the beginning..
Her expression seemed strangely brighter than usual, like a child chattering to her parents about the day's events..
‘A person like this is a witch... … This is ridiculous. No matter how I look at it, he seems like a good person..’
A good person for a teenage villain?.
It may seem strange to anyone who hears it, but Yeo-min believed her own feelings rather than Kang-ho's dirty rumors..
‘You may think it's strange to say this, but... … reminds me of my mom.’
Yeo-min’s mother passed away more than ten years ago..
There was little resemblance to the Nine-Eum Witch other than her white hair, but somehow Yeo-min felt as if she was talking to her mother when she was young..
So I started chattering without even realizing it..
“okay. I see.”
A faint smile appeared on the icy face of the Nine-Eum Witch..
But soon her expression hardened and she jumped up from her seat..
“I don't mind taking more rest. But don't expect any more favors from me than this..”
“excuse me…….”
I wanted to talk a little more, but Yeo-min couldn't catch the Gueum Witch..
It was because of her facial expression that seemed to be barely suppressing some emotion..
“……It would be best for you to leave as soon as possible..”
After saying that to Yeomin, the Nine-Eum Witch entered the long path inside the cave..
When the presence of the Nine-Eum Witch completely disappeared, the students started talking in low voices..
Yeomin spoke to Heonwongang in a slightly flushed voice..
“Nine Eum Witch. I don't think he's a bad person?”
“Definitely as rumored…….”
“You know very well that there is nothing as unreliable as a rumor. Ya Soo-hyuk and you too.”
They both nodded obediently..
Everyone knew very well how falsely prejudiced rumors were created and spread..
Yeomin said, biting her lip in exasperation..
“I can’t believe such a friendly person is a martial artist. It's clear that he's guilty!”
“okay. It could be so. Anyway, let's take a break now. This guy is already sleeping peacefully in the world..”
Heonwongang patted Wijicheon's cheek, who was already sleeping with a peaceful face..
As soon as the Nine-Eum Witch disappeared, the tension in my body eased. And, the fatigue accumulated throughout the day came all at once..
“Phew…….”
“I feel like dying.”
“I feel like I can sleep right away as soon as I lie down..”
dump.
dump.
dump.
The three people lying on the floor fainted and fell asleep..
It was a very long day for them..
* * *
Ugh…….
Yeo-min woke up to the sound of crying coming from afar..
With her eyes half open, she looked around with a sleepy face..
“Umm… … . What are you talking about??”
Heonwon- gang and Ya Su-hyeok were stretched out on the floor, and Wi Ji-cheon was asleep, curled up like a shrimp as if it was cold..
Grumble~ Piyuu- Grumble~ Piyuu-
The snoring of the two men was loud, but Yeomin was even more concerned about the crying that came from afar..
Hmm, huh…….
The sound of a woman's cries that sounds like a deaf ear.
Yeo-min got up from her seat without realizing it and started walking towards the place where the sound was coming from..
It was inside the cave where the Nine-Eum Witch entered..
Yeomin walked for a while, tracing the wall with her hands as the lights were completely off, and found the Gueum Witch sitting down in the middle of the cave, crying..
“Gueum Witch?”
“……why are you here?”
The Nine-Eum Witch, who found Yeo-min, quickly wiped her tears with her sleeve..
Her eyes were red and bloodshot, as if she had been crying for quite a while..
Yeo-min sat down opposite the Nine-Eum Witch and asked carefully..
“You were crying?”
“…….”
“why?”
“…….”
“Because of the bad people who turned you into a witch.?”
Yeomin thought that the Nine-Eum Witch looked very sad..
I wanted to hear what the story was, and I wanted to cry with you..
It was strange to empathize so emotionally with someone I had never met, but at the same time it didn't feel strange at all..
‘Is this what it means to have a connection??’
When Yeo-min was embarrassed by the unknown attraction, the Gueum Witch slowly opened her mouth..
“Are you Hayeon’s daughter??”
Yeo-min asked back in surprise..
“Ooh, you know my mom?”
Eunha Yeon.
It was the name of Yeo-min's mother who died when she was young, and it was a name she had never told anyone..
I don't know my father's name.
From a very young age, her mother raised her alone..
And he passed away ten years ago..
“what happened to my mom…….”
“That's right. Somehow I felt familiar with it from the first time I saw it. You look a lot like your sister.”
The Nine-Eum Witch stretched out her hand and stroked Yeo-min’s face..
The eyes that recalled the past were faint and painful..
“That Hayeon unni gave birth to a child?…….”
“How do you know my mom??”
At Yeomin's urging, the Nine-Eum Witch hesitated for a moment and then opened her mouth..
“Your mom and I grew up in the same place. It was a place where girls in similar situations gathered. Everyone was an orphan... … My sister and I learned martial arts together there..”
“oh my god…….”
Yeomin was talking to her mother, who was over 20 years old, for the first time. She was absorbed in the story of the Nine-Eum Witch..
“There, if you didn't learn martial arts properly, you had to be beaten and starve. Children died every week. At that time, Hayeon helped me a lot. You must be hungry too... … He even gave me food.”
“I've never heard a story like that before…….”
“I guess you didn't do it. It wouldn't be a story worth telling your daughter..”
Yeo-min didn't know what to say when she suddenly heard about her mother's past..
The Nine Eum Witch asked her.
“But Hayeon unni?”
“He died when I was young. more than ten years ago…….”
“okay. I see.”
The Nine-Eum Witch nodded with a sad expression, as if she had already expected it. And then he carefully stroked Yeomin’s cheek..
“You look a lot like your sister. Actually, I recognized you at first glance. So I tried to get him out of the evil song, but Byeok-an-gwi interfered..”
“Do I really take after my mom a lot? I'm not sure…….”
“They look alike. But even if we didn't look alike, I would have recognized you. because.”
When the Nine-Eum Witch's hand touched Yeo-min's hair, her hair instantly turned pure white..
Susssut.
For a moment, Yeo-min was startled and took a step back..
It was because of the cold energy I felt inside my body..
“I didn't learn ice ball..”
“It seems so. Why? Didn't your sister teach you??”
Yeomin nodded..
“My mom told me never to learn ice ball. He said that if I cook it, I won't live as long as he did and will die..”
“…….”
“but it's okay.”
Yeomin smiled bravely and said.
“Instead, I'm taking medication. This is a medicine that prevents hair from turning gray. Prevents cold from building up inside your body.”
“I see. Well, there might be a way to do that if you didn't learn it in the first place..”
The Nine-Eum Witch smiled and gently stroked Yeo-min's cheek..
“Your body type is the same as mine. I know better than anyone else that it is painful even if it is suppressed with medicine. Janghae, you are really Janghae..”
“thank you… … Ugh…….”
Before I knew it, tears had formed in the corners of Yeomin’s eyes..
It was the first time since her mother died that she had met someone who knew her secret..
The Nine-Eum Witch hugged Yeo-min tightly..
“It's okay to cry. Feel free to cry as much as you want.”
“Ugh… … Wow!”
Yeomin cried in the arms of the Nine-Eum Witch. The Nine-Eum Witch hugged her tightly like her daughter..
And then he slowly rubbed my back and whispered softly into my ear..
“Then the vagina inside you must be very clean. The negative energy that has been suppressed for a long time without mastering Binggong. Very clean... … It looks delicious.”
“yes?”
At that moment, Yeo-min felt something strange and was shocked..
The Nine-Eum Witch held her tightly and did not let her go..
“There's nothing to be afraid of. I won't hurt you.”
“What, what…….”
Yeomin slowly looked around while being held in the arms of the Nine-Eum Witch..
Eyes accustomed to the dark could see things clinging to the cave walls..
Yeomin screamed..
“ah… … Ahhhh!”
bugs, birds, animals, and people.
It was all frozen on the wall in a painful way..
The Nine-Eum Witch whispered into the ear of Yeomin, who was struggling in her arms..
“I was going to let you go. I told you to leave the evil song. I didn't want to hurt my sister's daughter. But you're the one who didn't leave. I gave it a chance. You should have woken up and left the cave right away, why did you come to me? Because you came to me in the end…….”
licking.
The Nine-Eum Witch gently licked Yeo-min’s white neck..
“I can't take it anymore.”
The Nine-Eum Witch drooled. Tears of sadness still flowed from my eyes..
Yeomin was trembling..
“Please, please…….”
“I saved your life once, so don't blame me too much if I kill you..”
“This witch……!”
Yeo-min lost consciousness due to the distant cold rushing into her body..
