Chapter 670
Side Story Episode 11. congratulations
two days later.
The three men, who had taken care of most of Baek Moo-gwan's household affairs, stood again in front of Mei Ruobing's tomb..
“ma'am. It's not far from the Blue Dragon Science Museum, so I'll come here often. I will be coming down next vacation too, so please wait a little longer even if you miss me..”
Baek Mu-heun smiled as he gently brushed his wife's tombstone. Baek Soo-ryong shook his head next to him, seeing that appearance that remained consistent no matter how much time passed..
After his father's strange expressions of affection were over, it was Baek Soo-ryong's turn..
“It may be as difficult as my father... … I will come too whenever I have time..”
“Unfilial son. Your mother is telling you to get married quickly..”
“mother. My father keeps lying about selling out my mother, but it’s okay to be like this.?”
“joy. Do you think Yakbing would take your side if you told him like that??”
“Get out of the way, both of you..”
Mae Geukryeom pushed the bickering father and son to both sides. He found winter flowers for his daughter, who loved flowers, placed them in front of the tombstone, and briefly said goodbye..
“Yakbinga. See you again.”
During the two days that his son-in-law and grandson were cleaning up Baekmugwan, Mae Geuk-ryeom visited the place frequently, so he did not say a long goodbye..
Because I talked enough and expressed my feelings..
Just showing a light smile and promising a future date was enough..
“……Let's go now.”
Mae Geukryeom was the first to turn around, and the Baek family followed him..
As the three neatly packed their belongings left Baekmugwan, the villagers who heard the news of their departure gathered one by one to see them off..
“Muheun. Take some of this with you. This is the food my daughter made..”
“I'm sure I'll come here often, but even things like this…….”
“Won't you be bored on the way back? I need to be less bored at least with my mouth..”
Quite a few people, including the village chief, gave us things like fruit and snacks. Baek Moo-heun, whose luggage quickly grew as big as a turtle's shell, was busy refusing with a troubled expression..
“Argh! Master! Don't go! Or take me too! I will go to the Blue Dragon Academy and study martial arts diligently.!”
Jang cried again. He grabbed Baek Soo-ryong's trouser legs and begged him to take him to the Blue Dragon Science Museum..
“Hey guy. They said I couldn't enter because I wasn't old enough..”
Jang-i recently turned eleven. The entrance exam for Cheongryong Academy could only be taken four years later..
Jang Yi, who barely got away from Baek Su-ryong, made a promise with an angry face..
“We'll see! After four years, I will definitely enter the school at the top of my class.!”
“Although it is small, the ambition is big. Does it seem easy to be accepted at the top of the world??”
Cheonha Cheonhakwan.
The world's evaluation does not yet place Cheongryonghakwan above Cheonmuhakwan, but the story will be different in four years..
If you win the Tianwu Emperor for several years in a row, no one will be able to deny it..
Then Jang asked with a slightly dejected look on his face..
“……The master shouldn't come and teach martial arts every vacation.?”
“I saw you doing it. I will come back and check what I taught you this time, so practice hard..”
“yes!”
Jang Yi swore with a solemn expression. Baek Soo-ryong lightly pulled the little disciple's cheek and laughed..
The three people leave the village while being seen off by so many people..
Baek Mu-heun glanced at his father-in-law's brightened profile and said,.
“Father-in-law. You seem to be in a good mood..”
“Is there anything bad about it? I'm on my way back from seeing my daughter for the first time in 30 years..”
“Do you regret having to go back too quickly??”
Mae Geukryeom shook his head with a look of relief on his face..
Of course, it would be a lie to say that he wasn't disappointed, but the past two days were not a short time for him..
“It's okay. We often went on outings together.”
“……Outing?”
It was the first time Baek Mu-heun had heard this story. This was because Mae Geukryeom had not properly talked about his dream for the past two days..
“okay. While touring the river, I visited all kinds of places. Is it just that? We cooked and ate together and looked at amazing things..”
Even though it was clearly a dream, most of the events were surprisingly clear..
As if something like that really happened one day…….
However, every time I woke up from the dream, Yakbing whispered something in Mae Geukryeom's ear, but I couldn't remember that part at all..
“I'm sure he told me something interesting... … Strangely enough, it's only faint..”
Seeing his father-in-law look a little disappointed, Baek Moo-heun asked with wide eyes..
“Did my father-in-law see medicinal ice in his dream??”
“Are you jealous? We went out together and cooked together. You don't have to be too upset, since you also added it once..”
Mae Geuk-ryeom was teasing his son-in-law in a mischievous voice, and Baek Mu-heun's expression became blank for a moment when he heard those words..
“Father-in-law. I had a similar dream too?”
“What?”
“I met Yakbing in my dream. The four of us cooked and ate rice and went on a cruise together.…….”
“Huh. That's such an amazing thing.”
The two looked at each other with embarrassed expressions and then laughed at the same time..
It was an interesting and strange thing, but I thought it was a very possible coincidence..
I wondered how much we both missed Mei Ruobing to have had similar dreams..
however.
“me too… … I met my mother in a dream.”
Isn't even the White Water Dragon tilting his head and muttering those words?.
“……what?”
“Was that really true??”
Baek Soo-ryong nodded and explained the dream he had. It wasn't much different from what the two people dreamed..
When he found out that all three of them had had similar dreams for two days, Mae Geukryeom's expression became serious..
“Water dragon. Do you have any guesses? Maybe you…….”
Baek Soo-ryong shook his head..
Although he had experienced all kinds of supernatural powers and strange experiences, including the magic of the Blood Demon, which may have been the best of all time, it was not easy to guess why the three met Mei Ruobing in their dreams..
“I'm doing well too…….”
At that moment, Baek Soo-ryong made eye contact with two people who were looking at him with eyes filled with strange heat..
“Why, why do they look at me like that??”
Feeling an unknown sense of crisis, Baek Soo-ryong slowly took a step back..
However, his maternal grandfather and father were already naturally pressuring him from both sides. It would not be easy for martial artists who had been trained for decades to pass the training camp to move like one body like that..
“……Since I spent a long time with the world's greatest magician, Lady Hyeoncheon, it may be that the energy of magic naturally lingers in my body..”
“……Or, there may still be some energy from the Reverse Heavenly Demonic Art. Didn't you say that you actually met the masters of your past life in the world of images??”
The two people expressed their respective opinions and nodded at the same time, probably thinking they were plausible. It didn't seem like he had much intention of listening to what Baek Soo-ryong said..
“Father-in-law. It's definitely true. That guy used his magic to bring magic ice into our dreams..”
“That's a very likely guess. That means…….”
The two men made eye contact with Baek Su-ryong in the middle and exchanged glances. We understood each other even without words..
It may be possible to meet Yak Ice in your dreams every day.!
“Well, I know what you're thinking. I really don't know anything, right? If I could, I would have done it right away. First, calm down your excitement.…….”
Baek Soo-ryong’s logical counterargument had no effect..
The eyes of the two swordsmen, who had narrowed the siege little by little, shone sharply..
“Father-in-law. Is that guy going to catch me right away and put me on hold??”
“Don't talk nonsense... … . Let's catch up and have some serious time..”
Although Juri couldn't be wrong, it was clear that if she was caught by two excited people, she would suffer greatly for a while..
I'll have to imitate a technique I've never learned for at least a few sessions..
Baek Soo-ryong made a decision quickly..
‘Let's jump for now.’
thud-!
As soon as he stamped his feet, Baeksu-ryong’s new form shot out like a darting arrow. He suddenly launched a light attack to escape the siege of the two masters..
However, as if they had expected it, Mae Geuk-ryeom and Baek Mu-heun followed closely behind..
“Can't you stand there?!”
“This water dragon! As expected, they are hiding something.!”
All three were experts who could run faster than most birds. The scenery passed by and changed in an instant..
Baek Soo-ryong looked back and screamed..
“I really don't know! I didn't do it!”
He was a Cheongryong Shinhyeop who had a reputation as the best man in the world, but the sight of the two swordsmen following him like evil spirits from behind was extremely frightening..
“Innoom! I heard someone is eating them! Why are you running away?!”
“Father- in-law. That guy's body is not normal. I won't be able to go far and I'll get tired, so I'll pounce and grab him right away.!”
At least I wouldn't be bored on the way back to the Cheongryong Academy..
* * *
After a chase and chase, the three returned to Namchang, where the Cheongryong Academy is located, and became separated at a crossroads..
“Water dragon guy. It seems like you really don't know anything..”
“I guess it was a coincidence that we had the same dream..”
“……Although it is unfortunate.”
“There will be another chance. Don't you sleep every day??”
Baeksu-ryong went straight to Baekryongjang to meet his disciples, and the two headed to Cheongryong Academic Hall..
Baek Mu-heun also seemed to secretly want to rest, but he couldn't help it. He was captured by his father-in-law and entered the governor's office with a dissatisfied face..
“Father-in-law. I am half a hundred years old. It's not a child, so should you drag it by the ears??”
“After you fill the remaining half, you can winnow it. And if you don't want to be caught, don't run away or get hit.?”
“Okay…….”
Mae Geuk-ryeom personally served tea to his grumbling son-in-law. It was with a thick stack of documents next to it..
“The graduation ceremony is tomorrow. You should do whatever you can in advance..”
“……All of this today?”
“Not much.”
It was late at night when all the Cheongryong Academic Center instructors had left work. Even the lights in Namgoong Soo’s office were turned off..
Mae Geuk-ryeom informed his son-in-law, who was sitting across from him, about the work of the student director, and himself handled the paperwork that had been entrusted to Noh Gun-sang..
After handling some of the backlog, Mae Geukryeom raised his head and took a long sigh..
“It's quite tiring..”
“You need to think about your age. You must be tired, so go in and get some rest.?”
“A noble bastard.”
He was a son-in-law who had a knack for being sarcastic even when told to rest. As Mae Geuk-ryeom glanced at him, Baek Mu-heun was seen looking around at the ceiling of the government office..
“What are you looking for??”
Then Baek Mu-heun laughed like a mischievous person and said,.
“In the past. Fruit wine was hidden here along with medicinal ice. Since it was tightly sealed, it should have cooked very nicely by now.…….”
“……I don't even have the energy to get angry..”
Mae Geukryeom shook his head as if his bones were throbbing..
Are you thinking of hiding alcohol in the governor’s office? There are only two such idiots in the history of Blue Dragon Academy..
“Where was that? It's been so long I can't remember..”
“Don't talk nonsense and get your work done quickly.…….”
At that moment, Mae Geukryeom suddenly remembered a vague dream memory..
-father. Listen for a moment.
My daughter's playful voice whispering in my ear. I clearly remembered those words that had become blurry.
-I hid a bottle of alcohol on the ceiling of the administration room. Your father will eat it later. Where is it?…….
“father-in-law?”
Baek Mu-heun looked at Mae Geuk-ryeom in surprise as he suddenly stood up..
At that moment, a sword was pulled out from Mae Geukryeom's waist like a sword..
whirring-!
When a sword wind was released and pushed a part of the ceiling, that part lifted up and an empty space was revealed..
“Muheun. Take a look over there.”
After a while, Baek Mu-heun took out a tightly sealed liquor bottle from the ceiling and looked at his father-in-law with wide eyes..
“How did you know it was there??”
Mae Geukryeom chuckled instead of answering. After laughing for a while, he finally stopped laughing and looked with soft eyes at the gift his daughter had sent him..
“I think I should drink this to celebrate my inauguration..”
Do you know anything? If I fell asleep after drinking this alcohol, I might dream of meeting Yakbing again..
