Chapter 535 - Can you live without money

 

 

 

 

 

 

After three days, the change in the weather became noticeable.

 

The campsite was covered in frost, and it was so cold that you could see your breath even in the daytime.

 

The price of daily necessities that street vendors brought from the village to sell jumped up to three times.

 

Now even the warriors did not complain about the price of goods.

 

Rather, he concentrated on digging up Yeongji Seoncho by any means until the end.

 

 

 

around dusk.

 

Yeon Jeok-ha, who had reached the top of the mountain, spoke to the party.

 

“I’m just going down today.”

 

"yes."

 

A bitter smile appeared on Gong Ji-yu's lips as he answered.

 

There was no income for a whopping 15 days.

 

I know this is normal, but my whole body is drained of energy.

 

Yeonjeokha, who was accustomed to external areas, took the lead.

 

No one would open his mouth, probably because he was mentally exhausted and exhausted.

 

Did it go down halfway?

 

Yeon Jeok-ha, who was sitting on a rock and resting for a while, said a word as if he was frustrated.

 

“No, do you have Yeongji Seoncho in outer area?”

 

Of course, that's just talk.

 

At night, the chattering sounds of the warriors who collected ‘Ilyeopseoncho’ resonated in the campground.

 

Lee Yoo-hyeon, the youngest, answered without notice.

 

“Yesterday, Jeong Moo-moon from Indeok-hyeon picked ‘Il-yeop-seoncho’, so it must be there.”

 

Gong Ji-yu shook his head lightly as he saw Lee Yoo-hyeon.

 

The munpa who saved Yeongji Seoncho celebrate themselves every night, but who knows?

 

Like ‘Il-Yeop Seon-Cho’, if you seek a yawning Yeong-Ji Seon-Cho, they brag about their luck.

 

What people are talking about is a product.

 

Everyone was extremely careful, as products aroused the covetousness of other sects.

 

“But why can’t we see it!”

 

At Yeonjeokha’s sigh, Lee Yoo-hyeon secretly turned his gaze to the sky where the sunset was shining.

 

After grumbling for a while, Yeonjeokha stood up again.

 

Had he been ten steps ahead?

 

Lee Yoo-hyeon, who was following from the rear, inadvertently looked behind the rock where Yeonjeokha was resting.

 

Not for any particular reason.

 

It just happened that the gaze went there.

 

By the way, do you see a sharp blade of grass in a concave place under a rock?

 

'Is it a leek?'

 

Even Lee Yoo-hyeon, who is well versed in herbalism, thought so at first.

 

Since it was a rock close to the mountain road, it was a perfect location for people to rest and go.

 

He even sighed while sitting on the rock where he had been in love a while ago, saying, ‘Then why can’t we see it!’.

 

Since it is in such a conspicuous location, it cannot be the beginning of Yeongji.

 

He thought of ‘leek’ and his heart thumped.

 

Lee Yoo-hyeon quickly approached the rock.

 

When he got closer, he saw that it was shorter than a leek, and there were two rows of golden dots in the center of the stem.

 

It was 'Il-yeopseoncho'.

 

In an instant, Lee Yoo-hyeon raised his hands and shouted without realizing it.

 

“‘Il-yeop-seoncho’ daaaa!”

 

At that sound, Yeon Jeok-ha and Gong Ji-yu, who had gone down that far ahead, ran like the wind.

 

Lee Yoo-hyeon, who hurriedly dug up a root, showed it in front of Yeon Jeok-ha and Gong Ji-yu.

 

Gong Ji-yu's mouth widened when he saw that.

 

"oh! Is it really ‘Il-yeop-seoncho’?”

 

Gong Ji-yu was so happy that he wanted to jump up and down, but he couldn't.

 

It's because of Yeonjeokha's eyes.

 

It's not like raising drugs, but what is there to be found under the rock he was sitting on a moment ago?

 

According to the promise, what Yoo Yu-hyeon found was Hyeoncheonmun.

 

So he couldn't just celebrate the priest's luck.

 

My stomach was sore that I was in love, but it hurt, but I tried to say it with a calm face.

 

"congratulation."

 

Lee Yoo-hyeon, who belatedly recovered his emotions, looked up at Yeon Jeok-ha with a shy face.

 

“Well, it’s okay to just say that this is what Yeon Daehyeop discovered… … .”

 

Anyway, from his point of view, it was all the same whether he gave it to Hyeoncheonmun or gave it to Yeonjeokha.

 

However, to Yeonjeokha, who practiced the law, the promise was more important than a thousand pieces of gold.

 

“I promised, so I can’t.”

 

I sat down on the trunk of a nearby tree and waited until he had finished digging up the Il-Yeop Seoncho.

 

The ‘Il-yeopseoncho’ collected by Lee Yoo-hyeon has twelve roots.

 

He pretended to be calm, but it was rather conspicuous and made the jeokha sad.

 

 

 

that evening.

 

Yeon Jeok-ha and his party cooked and ate chowder and rested early.

 

After 15 days, Lee Yu-hyeon wrote ‘Il-yeop-seoncho’, but the atmosphere did not improve.

 

In particular, Gong Ji-yu felt uncomfortable.

 

Despite being well versed in herbalism, he had no face as he could not help.

 

Yeonjeokha, who was throwing branches at the bonfire, said.

 

“I’ll finish the foreign area today. Tomorrow, I'm going to go to the snowy mountains by myself.”

 

“… … .”

 

Gong Ji-yu and Lee Yoo-hyeon nodded their heads with faces that said something had come.

 

Considering the sudden drop in temperature, I wanted to object, but no one did.

 

Gong Ji-yu asked cautiously.

 

“Do you really think I don’t have to go with you?”

 

"yes I'm okay."

 

"yes… … .”

 

Gong Ji-yu felt sorry for not being of any help at Worak Mountain.

 

At least, it is the same with ‘Il-Yeop Seon-Cho’ today.

 

Had he found it first, he might have owned it.

 

Missing it was my own mistake.

 

Unlike him, who is a beginner, he would have known if he had just glanced at it.

 

'ha! Even the sky is indifferent.'

 

Gong Ji-yu, who was sighing, glanced at the jeokha.

 

Can he, who did not even recognize the ‘Il-Yeop Seoncho’ in the immediate vicinity, find the ‘Millennial Snow Lotus’ in the snowy mountain?

 

"what?"

 

Gong Ji-yu shook his head at Yeon Jeok-ha’s question.

 

"no. I’m just worried about the one-eyed demon.”

 

"are you okay. They use strange tricks, but well, they can't do anything to me.”

 

“We will wait for the return of the grand agreement opened here.”

 

“Thank you for doing so.”

 

The long-eyed, dark-eyed couple did not hesitate.

 

He honestly didn't have the confidence to go all the way to the Xian Tianmen Gate in Shanyin County by himself.

 

 

 

the next morning.

 

The people of Gosanmun did not move even after preparing for the hike early.

 

I heard that Yeon Jeok-ha said last night that he would go to the snowy mountain.

 

Baek Seol-heon said with a slightly tense face.

 

"Master, it's winter soon, isn't it a bit late?"

 

Even if the one-eyed demon was driven out of Naeak, there was not much time left anyway.

 

You can only be in Woraksan for a day or two.

 

Only now, I have no idea of Yeon Jeok-ha's intention to enter Naeak.

 

"Does not matter. What we'll take is the reputation of exorcising the one-eyed demon. You can try again next spring to save Yeongji Seoncho.”

 

There were already munpa who were withdrawing.

 

There is no possibility of saving Yeongjiseoncho in a day or two, so this year should be considered over.

 

Kwak Cho-seong was more curious about why Yeon Jeok-ha went to Naeak at such an end.

 

'It must have something to do with the one-eyed demon that disappeared, or something hidden.'

 

Whether it's fame or something hidden, there's no way he'll take it all by himself.

 

At that time, Shin Seong-ho brought four people.

 

Among them, the man who seemed to be the oldest, Lee Hak-joo asked urgently.

 

“Sahyung, what happened? When I asked him, he just said he would know when he goes.”

 

When Lee Hak-joo pointed at him, Shin Seong-ho smiled and slipped behind him.

 

Kwak Cho-seong told Lee Hak-joo the story after biting the people around him.

 

“… … That’s why I want Gosanmun to go to Naeak together.”

 

“Winter is starting soon, so let’s go to Naeak right now? Is that something you're not sure about?”

 

“Anyway, if you haven't been able to save Yeongji Seoncho so far, the rest of the day or two will be the same. Rather than that, I think it’s more certain to follow the jeokha.”

 

Lee Hak-joo shook his head excitedly.

 

“I think the jeokha is insane. What about the one-eyed demon out of the blue, and what about the snowy mountains?”

 

“How many disciples do you think will flock to Geumdanmun for defeating the one-eyed demon in Outer area? Even if I can't do it, ten people will go this winter alone. What if we expelled the one-eyed demon from Naeak? Even if I can't, about a hundred people will come. It means that money similar to that of Yeongji Seoncho is rolling in.”

 

It was only then that Lee Hak-joo made a tempting face.

 

“What about the forbidden sentence? If that's true, they'd be aiming for it even at the forbidden door.”

 

“I watched Yeonjeokha and Geumdanmun for the past few days. Seeing that he doesn't even come and go, it must have been a breakup. In the Golden Gate, I had fun in outer area anyway, so I won’t have any regrets.”

 

“So, let’s work together with Yeon Jeok-ha to resolve internal evil at Gosanmun Gate?”

 

“All you have to do is catch Yeonjeokha in Naeak and ask him about the one-eyed demon. If the forbidden door falls off, he will do as we ask.”

 

“Even if he sticks out his flippers all the way, there won't be any loss. You can think of entering Naeak faster than others and finding Yeongji Seoncho.”

 

“That is what I want to say.”

 

"hmm! All right. If so, I will join.”

 

Lee Hak-joo made up his mind.

 

If Yeonjeokha enters Naeak, it is clear that there is no single-eyed demon in Naeak. Who else would venture into the realm of one-eyed demons on their own without being insane!

 

 

 

The Yeonjeokha group moved after breakfast.

 

For Yeonjeokha, who is dark in geography, Gong Ji-yu and Yoo Hyeon-hyun accompanied them to the entrance of Naeak.

 

“Yeondaehyeop, if you cross that mountain, you will see a white peaked mountain on the right. That's snow mountain. It takes about two hours (four hours) to reach the snowy mountain, so you'll have to hurry.”

 

“Yes, yes.”

 

The long-eyed, dark-eyed rival nodded his head vigorously.

 

It's fortunate that you can see the snowy mountain if you go over just one mountain.

 

If the explanation to visit had been a little longer, it would have been embarrassing.

 

“Then go. We’ll go back after collecting in the outer areas like before.”

 

“Yeondaehyeop, I hope you have good results.”

 

Lee Yoo-hyeon bowed his head.

 

How frustrated and in a hurry, he must have thought to search even the snowy mountains!

 

In front of him, he shouted that he had found 'Il-Yeop Seon-Cho'... … .

 

I waved my hand to the two people who were saying goodbye and walked away.

 

Lee Yoo-hyeon asked as he watched the back of Yeonjeok-ha, who was moving away.

 

“By the way, sister-in-law, why did Yeon Dae-hyeop hang himself like that? He is so good at martial arts.”

 

“he need money. a lot."

 

Gong Ji-yu turned around with a bitter face.

 

He couldn't say that he was raising money to find a wife.

 

"why?"

 

“Why, can you live without money?”

 

“Oh, no.”

 

“That’s it.”

 

“Still, when the position of the Yeondaehyeop is reached, money Aren’t many things normal?”

 

"ha! I know. Why is Yeondaehyeop so low on money? I am also curious.”

 

Gong Yoo let out a long sigh.

 

When he thinks of his situation, he is so saddened that he is about to burst into tears.

 

Why did his wife leave the house, leaving such an ignorant child-like person?

 

'Why are you looking for someone who has left the house like that?'

 

If she were herself, she would never leave a man like that.

 

Her group ran towards her as she let out a deep sigh.

 

They are the people of Gosanmun.

 

Gong Ji-yu, who belatedly recognized Kwak Cho-seong, hesitated.

 

However, the seven masters of Gosanmun passed by the two as fast as the wind.

 

Lee Yoo-hyeon asked Gong Ji-yu, who was blinking his eyes, wondering what was going on.

 

“Sister, why do the people of Gosanmun enter Naeak?”

 

“I want to ask.”

 

Gong Ji-yu shook his head.

 

They are as mysterious as the past of Yeonjeokha.

 

To run like that to the inner evil that the one-eyed demon is holding on to.
