Chapter 162
Episode 162: Time to peel off the bean pods.
The second finals have begun.
As 32 to 16 people remained, the excitement of the Xiaolong battle became even hotter. Now, only reviewers who are famous not only in their own town but also in the surrounding area are left..
“Now then, I will win for the Murim Lord.!”
Seo Dae-ryong said it as a joke, but it also contained his determination..
The opponent this time is Lee Hyu (李烋) from the Shandong Lee family.).
The battle between the law and the law.
Rather, Seo Dae-ryong was more confident in this dance than in the previous dance..
“Strangely, I feel more comfortable dealing with Taoism than with other martial arts. Why is it like that??”
Since he was being taught the Taoist method of the Hyeolcheon Doma, his understanding of the Taoist method was probably high. So, the projection method feels relatively more comfortable..
“Our master is letting down his guard..”
“no. Absolutely not.”
Seo Dae-ryong waved his hand. The term “let down one’s guard” is unfair. 'Cause he was working like he was born for this competition.
“Hey, did you see the fight? This is not an easy opponent. Don't let down your guard.”
“All right.”
Having said that, I expected Seo Dae-ryong to win this match. This is because the opponent's sword method was disadvantageous compared to the sword method that Seo Dae-ryong had learned..
As expected, Seo Dae-ryong won without difficulty..
Seo Dae-ryong came down from the off-stage, waving to the cheering soldiers..
“I finally made it to the eight people.!”
Now Seo Dae-ryong will be selected as an elite organization of the Murim Alliance..
“It's a shame. Now I have a chance to live a new life.”
“Do you want to stay? If you want to remain as Sejak, Tongcheongak will welcome you with both hands..”
“Just a little bit?”
“You work while hiding your identity behind enemy lines. The genius brain of Hwangcheon-gak's senior admission! Moreover, the best Sejak with martial arts skills! how?”
“I heard that the Murim Lord already knows about Gakju and my identity.?”
“I remembered?”
“Don’t even dream of leaving me behind! The only thing better than winning is losing your right hand. Even if you win the world's best martial arts competition, not the Xiaolong fight, the right-hand man position is good..”
“Is it really so??”
“sure.”
“Now, just imagine! You have become the best person in the world. All the martial arts people respect you. Even so, I like my right arm?”
“yes.”
“Even the mazons you are so afraid of smile at you. It's possible that you accidentally stepped on the toes of Extreme Soma. Would you please step on these toes as well? Say it. Well, even if it’s like this?”
“yes The right arm is better though.”
“Kangho's beauties are lining up to meet you just once. Even if this happens?”
“Gakju would be cool even if he were a one-armed warrior..”
I burst out laughing, and Seo Dae-ryong laughed along with me. Since he was more into martial arts than women these days, this joke was actually funny. Where would you send such a cute Seo Dae-ryong??
“Just go! If you are not there, the right-hand man will be replaced by Prince Jang right away..”
“ah! I'm worried about giving it to someone else again..”
With the splendid feat of advancing to the Palgang River, we left unarmed..
* * *
The next day, Jin Ha-ryeong, who was about to go on stage, was asked by his escort, Chu-ho..
“Are you in any uncomfortable place??”
Jin Ha-ryeong turned his head at his concern..
“no. why?”
“You look in a bad mood..”
“don't worry. Nothing special.”
In fact, her mood was down..
After the banquet held by my grandfather, I did not meet with either Geom Yeon or Jo Shin..
If someone like a courtier harbored a grudge, it would not be a problem to kill a single person. If you kill him without leaving any evidence, you won't be able to hold him guilty even if you feel bad. And in this world, no one will care about the death of the servant..
If I really feel like it, I want to destroy the courtier until he asks me to save him. The reason I can't do that is because of my grandfather. As long as your grandfather is the leader, if you cause an accident, your grandfather will have to take responsibility for fixing it. Yes, bear with it, bear with it..
I can tolerate courtship, but there are some things I can't tolerate. People's hearts are so strange that I didn't think much of it when I was watching them, but now that I couldn't meet them, I felt like I wanted to see them for no reason. What's so good about a cocky servant who always embarrasses people?.
As she stepped onto the off-stage, cheers were heard from all directions..
“Hubuk one taste! Jin Ha-ryeong! One taste of Hubuk! Jin Ha-ryeong!”
“Cheer up, Jean Sozer!”
“Sincerely yours, Jean Soger!”
“Let's win for sure!”
“Let's eat noodles!”
“Win, Jean Sozer!”
She heard clearly. Strange yet welcome words mixed in with the cheering.
Her eyes turned to Gunwoong. Cheers erupted wherever she looked. Those who were touched by Hubei Ilmi looking at them chanted her name at the top of their voices..
She found sword dance in them. She looked at him and nodded once. It was a signal to eat noodles together..
That day, contrary to Chuho's worries, she showed off her skills better than ever. Her sword was fast and accurate, and her steps were extremely elegant..
She also advanced to the Palgang River with a brilliant victory that thrilled everyone..
* * *
The sword dance had arrived in advance and was waiting in the guest room..
“congratulations on your victory.”
Instead of receiving congratulations, Jin Ha-ryeong spoke firmly..
“We can't meet.”
“why not?”
“Are you asking because you don’t know that? I can't because it puts you in danger..”
“But why did you come??”
“that…….”
After hesitating for a moment, she said something unexpected..
“Because of the promise..”
“What promise??”
“You'll find out when you go.”
She left the guesthouse with a sword dance..
“Do you know how to light up??”
Do you know how to bow? Geommugeuk smiled and answered.
“I know.”
“no. Let's go find a horse..”
She asked for words as if she had asked something pointless. The sword dance followed what she said..
“I know how to ride a horse?”
“Usually a valet is someone who leads a horse, but the valet you are seeing is special, right? Rides well.”
So I borrowed two horses and ran..
The place she took Geommugeuk to was Dongho, east of the Murim League..
“I asked you to show me around here before.?”
“did you remember that?”
“Just because we talked so much, forget it.?”
As he said this, Jin Ha-ryeong had this thought in his heart..
‘So, what kind of conversation did we have to make such a fuss? An uproar in front of the grandfather, an uproar in front of the courtiers. Coming to Dongho.’
She looked at the sword dance. His face was hard to see because of his hair that was still matted and his beard covering his face, and his clothes were old and dirty. What on earth is this person good for?.
Then the sword dance told her.
“Let's go over there?”
“yes? why?”
“I think the view will look better from that hill over there..”
Jin Ha-ryeong was truly impressed by the place Geommugeuk took him..
“It's really beautiful!”
It was an amazing spot where you could overlook the beauty of Dongho at a glance..
“How did you know? this place?”
“Usually, the servants are good at finding their seats..”
Jin Ha-ryeong felt that he really couldn't know this person..
So the two stood in silence for a moment, immersed in Dongho's beauty..
The person who broke the silence was Jin Ha-ryeong..
“You, master, will join the Murim Alliance. Originally, you would have stayed too.?”
“Why do you keep trying to send me away? I will stay with you, Master..”
Jin Ha-ryeong looked at the sword dance. Geommugeuk said as if he had already made up his mind..
“That day, Jean Sozer did everything she had to do by saying in front of everyone that she was dating me. The rest is my choice.”
“It'll be dangerous.”
“How did you feel when your grandfather tried to force you to get married??”
“I didn't like it.”
“Same goes for me. I don't want anyone interfering in my life..”
“I don't want to die, but I won't die..”
“A life in an unpleasant marriage may be more painful than death..”
“!”
After a moment, Jin Ha-ryeong said:.
“I've never even been married.”
“I saw someone next to me who was really suffering. don't worry about me.”
“I don't understand why you're a servant.”
“So what do I think??”
After a moment, she held out her hand and said.
“The leader's granddaughter's friend. we are friends.”
She didn't know her own mind. Why would I form such a deep relationship with a mere servant?.
“Isn’t Sojeo losing too much??”
“Why do we weigh the benefits and losses between friends? Then you're not a friend.”
Geommugeuk held her outstretched hand tightly..
“You're friends with the lord's granddaughter.!”
“A servant and a friend!”
After shaking hands firmly, she said.
“If anyone bothers you, tell them that my friend is the Murim Lord’s granddaughter! Okay?”
“Of course.”
“I will also go somewhere and brag about it. The most special attendant in the world is my friend..”
“Next time you need that servant friend, please call me. Maybe that special friend will do something you never thought possible..”
Jin Ha-ryeong looked at the sword dance..
“It's strange. you are.”
It seemed like this man would never die. This man didn't seem to be in trouble. If I keep doing this for no reason, I don't know how much I will regret later when this man dies at the hands of the courtiers. What should I do then?…….
The two people who returned from Dongho parted ways at the entrance to Wuhan to avoid attention..
Geommugeuk was returning alone, but someone blocked his way..
A poisonous snake, it was the courtier..
“Was the outing fun??”
Geommugeuk looked at him with a very frightened expression. I planned to wait and see how he behaved until I found out whether he was just here for the wedding or whether he had any connection with Cheonmyeonghoe..
“You were so confident when you were with her, but why did you drop it when you were alone??”
“If you touch me, Jean Sozer won't stay away..”
When Geommugeuk acted like he was scared, Josin’s face was full of ridicule..
“Just hiding behind a woman.”
Josin walked over and grabbed Geommugeuk, who was retreating, by the collar..
“Because of an insignificant person like you, Jin Soje is defiled..”
The courtier raised his hand to strike a blow. Geommugeuk closed his eyes tightly and deliberately looked afraid..
“If you thought I couldn't kill you just because I did that in front of the leader, you were sorely mistaken..”
“Please save me!”
The courtier lowered his raised hand..
“Don't kill me. It's no fun if you just kill them. I have to see Jin Soje regret. I have to take the pods out of your eyes and see how disappointed you are. I'll leave you hanging on me later.”
Geommugeuk knows that it is not just because of that reason. If he dies or goes missing, Jin Ha-ryeong will never marry him..
Since I was going to get married while using the expression “defiled,” I could tell without looking what the married life would be like..
“If you don't do as I say from now on, I'm going to rip off all your skin and throw you in the salt shaker. Do you understand??”
“yes!”
“We will be holding a banquet this evening, inviting the later exponents. I also invited Jean Sozer, so you can come there too. Then, clean your hair and shave your beard. With this money, you should buy the most expensive clothes possible..”
The courtier believed that Jin Ha-ryeong’s simple appearance played a role in his liking for this guy from start to finish. It's like a young woman's fantasy. A man without makeup looks more confident. When I open it, there is nothing. I was planning to break it today..
If this guy from beginning to end wears expensive clothes that don't suit him and dresses up for the sake of dressing up, it will have the opposite effect. In the end, I thought, this person is no different from any other person trying to please me. Today I will completely shatter the girl's illusions..
“If you cooperate as I say, I will save your life. I'll give you a lot of money later.”
“how much will you give?”
“100,000 nyang.”
Geommugeuk widened his eyes greedily at the unexpected amount..
“You must give it.”
“Always keep your promises. So you do as you are told..”
Joshin felt good inside..
‘What a piece of trash.!’
So it will be much easier to use.
As the courtier left with light steps, the sword dance that had been imitating a coward returned to its original form..
“Seeing as they're giving me 100,000 nyang, I'm thinking of killing them once they're done..”
I said it as if I was talking to myself, but it was what the hiding warrior told me to listen to..
“Please report the conversation that took place during this meeting to the Master without leaving out a single word. This is a very important matter for Jin Soje and Lord Maeng..”
Just by hearing this report, the Murim Lord will be able to know the inner thoughts of the courtier..
“And please tell me this too. When I finish this matter, I'm willing to take care of Jo Shin as well. This is a guy who will harm Jin Soger for a long time. However, the Murim Alliance cannot treat the successor of a prestigious political faction carelessly. In the end, interests will be intertwined. Don't do that, just leave it to me..”
The hidden warrior still had no answer..
* * *
That night, Jin Ha-ryeong entered the manor..
All the invited later exponents had already gathered in the manor. She never wanted to come, but Josin invited her and said:.
“I also invited that servant, so make sure to come too..”
When Geom-yeon came, he had to come too. Because he was no longer her servant, but her friend. I couldn't send him to the viper's den alone..
The courtier welcomed her with a kind face..
“The reason I called you two today was to apologize..”
“I'm sorry?”
“exactly. That day, my pride kicked in and I unintentionally made a mistake towards the two of them. I'm sorry.”
Jin Ha-ryeong looked at him with suspicious eyes, but Jo Shin treated her with a gentle expression. I didn't think of snakes today.
‘Yes, it would be better to solve it in a good way..’
There is no need to upset this person even for the sake of prosecution..
That was right then..
The entrance began to buzz, and Jin Ha-ryeong and Jo Shin's eyes naturally turned in that direction..
