Chapter 464 - What I want is a curve

 

 

 

 

 

 

Suddenly, the blue cloud sword Namgungcheon's face turned red, and Yeonjeokha asked.

 

"what’s? What's going on?"

 

Then, Namgungcheon replied with her puzzled face.

 

“These days, Moyong keeps sending people. To make a ‘hanga sword’ with me.”

 

“The ‘hanga sword’?”

 

“My name is Mo Yong So Hee, and I am the nephew of the new family head, Mo Yong Moon Daehyeop.”

 

“I guess you don’t like my brother.”

 

“Rather than that, Hum, I have Hum, and there is a separate Yeohyup that I like. That's why it's a little bit difficult.”

 

"aha!"

 

It was only then that I could understand why Namgung-yeon, who had a rivalry, had said such a thing.

 

Meanwhile, Namgungcheon, whose face was hot, changed the topic in a hurry.

 

“So, what about Dagwan?”

 

“Ah, I was passing by Dagwan, and Seolhwain told me something interesting. Bulmuhani, who worked at Daejaeun Temple in Xi'an, found an old book while cleaning a pagoda. These are the books left by the field judge... … . They sold it to ‘Wangbu’ and ‘Pungjisan’. No, I sold it to the upper room, but did the upper room say that it was paid as a bribe?”

 

As Yeonjeokha went back and forth, Namgungcheon waved her hand.

 

“Sold or given away, you mean the old books were sent to ‘Wangbu’ and ‘Pungjisan’?”

 

"yes."

 

“You don’t know what old book it is?”

 

“They say that Seolhwain is about ‘immortality’. He said that the only thing that 'The King' and the 'Famous Religion' could be interested in in common. Does your sister think so too?”

 

As Yeon Jeok-ha looked at her, Namgoong-yeon nodded her head.

 

“If the only thing he gave away was old books, his guess would be correct. ‘The King’ is just as interested in that as the famous cult leader.”

 

“Didn’t your sister receive an old book as a gift from the department store?”

 

“I received it, but I didn’t like the people, so I just sent it to the warehouse. Come to think of it, I said that the old book was also from Xi’an.”

 

"is it so? No matter how much the department store was in a hurry, they wouldn’t have stole the old book that goes to ‘Wangbu’, right?”

 

Namgungcheon, who had been listening quietly, interrupted her.

 

“It could have been. You can roughly fill in the old books at Ngcheonbu (Nanjing). Can't we just deliver the old book and get the confirmation letter?"

 

Namgoongyeon nodded her head.

 

“It could be because in Xi’an we don’t know about the affairs of Ying Tianbu. I need to check the old book just in case.”

 

"why? Do you really think there is even an immortality law written on it?”

 

“Rather than that, I think we should make sure that the old books are really the belongings of the great benefactor. If that's the case, it could be a problem later."

 

In an instant, Namgungcheon's face hardened slightly.

 

Certainly, if the old book of Daejaeunsa attracted the attention of the famous religious leader, the river would be raging.

 

An exclamation escaped from the young man's mouth.

 

"ah! Come to think of it, Seolhwain said something like this. If that old book is really valuable, they'll suspect that Immokhani stole something.”

 

“If that happens, we will investigate everything, not only the disobedient, but also the upper direction. Kang-ho's physiology doesn't stop there. The department store did something useless.”

 

Namgungcheon looked at Namgungyeon.

 

She had no choice but to trust her sister's eyes for now.

 

He desperately hoped that the old books he left behind at Baekhwa Sangbang were not those of Daejaeunsa.

 

Yeon Jeok-ha, who felt sorry that this happened because of him, said carefully.

 

“Can’t we return the old books to the department store?”

 

“Still, if it belongs to the Great Charity, they will doubt us. Because once you start looking at it with eyes of doubt, there is no end. It's best if the famous religious leaders don't pay attention to the old books.”

 

He nodded his head in suspense.

 

His own thoughts were brief.

 

This was not a problem that could be easily sorted out by returning the old book.

 

'Why are there all these dirty cases?'

 

A fire was burning inside, but there was nothing he could do right now.

 

 

 

***

 

 

 

Ha Nam.

 

Jeongju.

 

 

 

Early moning.

 

An old man with a goatee with a yuyeopdo around his waist entered Jeongju.

 

He stopped for a moment and looked around the busy street with emotion in his eyes.

 

“Hehe. A bold guy.”

 

The traces of the thief who stole Yeonjeokha's wagon and ran away led to Jeongju.

 

I thought he would have bounced far away to Luoyang or Hechang, but he went to Zhengzhou?

 

He must have known Yeonjeokha as just such a wanderer.

 

He knows it too.

 

Even though most of the victims run wild, they eventually give up and go on their way.

 

According to old sim experience, it's not that you can't catch a thief, it's that you don't catch it.

 

Lacking the time and manpower, he is slowly forgotten as he concentrates on bigger things.

 

But if you have time and persistence, you can catch it.

 

Didn't the swindlers who scammed and ran away in the past were finally caught?

 

Old sim went to the spot once to fill the hungry stomach.

 

And as soon as I finished eating, I moved to the horse room near Hwijeokhwijeok.

 

 

 

stall.

 

Old sim  approached a middle-aged man walking with an armful of hay and spoke to him.

 

“Are you a worker at the stable?”

 

“I can’t see… … Yes, it is.”

 

Won Sang-han, who responded bluntly, hurriedly spoke up.

 

I couldn't get out of the way even when I saw the yuyeopdo hanging from the old man's waist.

 

“Is there anyone who entrusted a small wagon for about 15 days? He is a middle-aged man named Gokseong, and his face is gentle. Some say it is a living Buddha.”

 

At the word ‘live Buddha,’ Won Sang-han shook his head.

 

“There was one such person. They said they would sell horses and carriages cheaply, so I bought them from our stable. But why are you looking for him?”

 

“I don’t know. Where can I go to meet him?”

 

“I don’t know. We are only interested in horses and carriages.”

 

He laughed heartily at his words.

 

“Hehe. Really, it looks like I looked like a Hogu.”

 

"yes? what do you mean by that... … .”

 

“The man who stole the horse and carriage from Jungmu-hyeon has returned to Jeongju. If he had a head, of course he should have gone to ‘Luoyang’ or ‘Heochang’. Why?”

 

“We don’t know.”

 

"no. you know I need to know.”

 

He looked at the middle-aged man with sad eyes.

 

His expression was as bloody as if he were facing a carriage thief right in front of him.

 

“Why, why are you like that? be well.”

 

“You don’t know who I am? I don't know, so they treat me like a hoe. yes?"

 

“Who are you?”

 

“Have you heard of Green Forest’s ‘Gucheonnodo’? that's me Do you still see me as a Hogu?”

 

“… … .”

 

Hay flowed down from Won Sang-han's white hand.

 

Green Forest's great horse that follows the practitioner of Taesangho Law like a shadow.

 

These days, there is a saying that even the Madou of Green Forest avoid him.

 

He started begging at once.

 

“Sah, save me. be better I really don't know anything.”

 

“Can I brush my teeth in front of the green forest elder? Do you know the physiology of thieves as much as I do? give you one last chance If you keep pretending, I will kill you and ask someone else.”

 

A mischievous smile appeared on the corner of the old sim lips.

 

Originally, thieves do not dispose of stolen goods by moving around.

 

It is even more so if the stolen goods are wagons and horses.

 

Wouldn't it be a transaction between individuals?

 

When purchasing from a stall or store, check the identity of the seller meticulously.

 

However, Gokseong returned to Jeongju and sold it.

 

In terms of the relatively safe ‘Luoyang’ or ‘Xuchang’.

 

For that reason, Shen Tong thought of the middle-aged man in front of him as a fence.

 

He believed that even if he was not a fence, he was someone who knew a little about Gokseong.

 

Won Sang-han quietly lowered his eyes with a face of despair.

 

It seems that the relationship with Gokseong ended today.

 

“If you spare me, I will tell you everything I know.”

 

“All I want.”

 

Only then did Won Sang-han's face turn a little bloody.

 

“He is now staying in a private room at the Gyokuro branch. I won't be out for a while."

 

In an instant, a flash of light flashed in the eyes of the old sim.

 

Seeing that it is a point rather than a ru or a gak, it seems to be a cheap giru. Hagiya, a high-class Giru did not suit a thief.

 

"Right. Were you also a fence?"

 

“Oops! no. It's a long-lost father. Absolutely not. We've only bought a couple of wagons and horses he brought. Stop being greedy for riches... … . I will never touch stolen goods again. Forgive me.”

 

"crazy guy Do you know that I am a podu?”

 

Old sim deliberately glared at his eyes.

 

To swear to Madou of Green Forest that you will not touch stolen goods? I don't know what kind of dog this is.

 

“Okay, I was wrong. Please forgive me.”

 

Only then did Won Sang-han, realizing his mistake, cringe until his back broke.

 

“Where is the Jade Shop?”

 

“There is an alley called the Red Light District to the north of downtown. The Gyokuro Branch is at the end of the road.”

 

“Forget meeting me today. After that, if you snoop around the Jade Shop, or if you hear my name in Jeongju, you will die.”

 

“Yes, yes.”

 

Won Sang-han hit his mouth with the palm of his hand and covered it. It hit so hard that it made a 'slap' sound.

 

Then old sim that confirmed his resolution disappeared like a ghost.

 

Won Sang-han, his knees weak, sat down on top of the hay I spilled.

 

I didn't feel sorry for Gokseong or worry about future regrets.

 

Green Forest's great horse head, Gucheonnodo, was aiming for him, so his life was already over.

 

“What the hell did he do to touch a madou like that?”

 

Even dead is cheap.

 

No, he deserves to die.

 

If he made a mistake, he would have almost died without any guilt.

 

 

 

***

 

 

 

The red-light district north of Zhengzhou.

 

Okro Branch’s outbuilding.

 

 

 

Four o'clock (10 am).

 

An old man with a goatee fell in the front yard of the outbuilding.

 

It is old sim leaving the magic room.

 

The workers who came and went in and out of the outbuilding remained silent even after belatedly discovering the uninvited guest.

 

It is also to blame for the yuyeop hanging from his waist.

 

But not everyone is like that.

 

In the meantime, someone with excellent loyalty ran to the escort warriors.

 

After a while, three escort warriors appeared in the outbuilding.

 

The escort Do Do-ho asked cautiously when the old man looked extraordinary.

 

“The Okro branch is managed by the archery room. What business do you have?”

 

“Who is the ark?”

 

“The double sword is also the full bow sword. What is the honorable name of the old man? Are you?”

 

“Double number?”

 

Old sim frowned at her.

 

Seeing that it was the first nickname she had ever heard in her life, it was clear that she was a janitor.

 

'What is it?'

 

If it was like before, I would have been bothered by everything, so I would have cut the knife first.

 

But now that I know the weight of karma, I don't want to do that.

 

Looking at the nervous escorts, they didn't look like they would go quietly.

 

“It’s Gucheonnodo. go away.”

 

At that moment, Do Do-ho and the two escorts stepped backwards with startled faces.

 

Dojang-ho, who realized the reality belatedly, hurriedly moved to town.

 

“Morim Malhak Dojangho greets you! Whatever you say, I'll take care of it!”

 

I looked at Dojang-ho with curious eyes.

 

Seeing the difficult words coming out, it seems that he read quite a bit in the old days.

 

He said that he would renovate his own division, but if he stopped it, he would use it.

 

“A petty thief named Gokseong is staying in the outbuilding. Get him out right now.”

 

“Honorable name!”

 

Dojangho, who responded moderately, jumped into the annex like a tiger. The two escorts followed him and broke into the outbuilding they were guarding a moment ago.

 

“Kyaaak!”

 

“Why are you like this! Are you crazy?”

 

"what? escort too?”

 

The sharp screams of the gisaengs shook the quiet sleeping outbuilding and woke it up.
