Chapter 46 (1/2)
Il Chim Gui and Chun chu Shin-ui headed to the place where Seomunjaehak’s party took Byeoktaesan.
There was a trail leading to a small forest behind the Geumwol Hostel.
It’s been a while since they left, but Chun Chu Shin Ui expertly found their traces and had arrived there.
“You, aren’t you quite useful huh?”
He looked at Chun Chu Shin Ui as if he didn’t expect this from him.
“I’m so excellent in medicine that I live being treated well as a doctor, but in fact, my other abilities are not bad by any means. Well, I’m not asking you to compliment, I’m just letting you know.”
“Let your shoulders standstill. What’s all that shrugging for? You are practically asking me to compliment you with your whole body.”
“I told you It’s not like that. Even if I don’t ask you to compliment me, you will naturally do so once you look at my abilities. So why would I do that? Originally, the awl completely penetrates the pocket.”
“Forget it. Let’s not talk. What am I even doing talking to you? We have a long way to go. Let’s go quickly before the lord kills all of them.”
Il Chim Gui said so and picked up his pace.
Several warriors stood at the entrance of the forest. Looking at their clothes, they were warriors from the Seomun household.
As soon as they saw Chun Chu Shin Ui and Il Chim Gui, they nervously blocked the path into the forest.
“I’m sorry, but you can’t go in here today.”
Chun Chu Shin Ui’s smiled.
“Is this forest yours? Have you ever heard of Seomun household owning the woods in the Jingzhou?”
The expressions of the warriors stiffened at the word Seomun household.
“You already know who we are. Can I judge that it’s not a good intention?”
“If you want to hide it, do something about those clothes. Why do you openly show that you came from the Seomun household and then ask me how I know where you hail from?”
At that, the faces of the Seomun household warriors slightly turned red.
“Anyway, we have to go in here, so why don’t you get out of the way?”
“We also have our position to think about, so please understand. We can’t move out of the way. So please wait a bit until our business is finished.”
“When will the business be over?”
“That’s… I’m not sure either. But it won’t take long.”
Chun Chu Shin Ui’s smiled.
“You must think it will be over soon because it’s beating up just one person. But you guys calculated wrong.”
At the words of Chun Chu Shin Ui, the expressions of the Seomun warriors became cold.
“Aren’t your words a little different from before? Didn’t you say you just came without knowing who we are?”
“I did?”
Chun Chu Shin-ui looked at Il Chim Gui with a confused expression.
“I did that?”
“You didn’t say that exactly, but you did say it in a way that was misleading enough.”
“Who’s side are you on? Is it our Lord or the Seomun Household?”
He looked at Chun Chu Shin Ui with an absurd expression.
“Don’t you think the options are a little weird? Anyways, get out of the way, how long are you going to waste our time?”
Il Chim Gui came forward. He stood in front of the Seomun household warriors and glanced at them.
The aura that had not been revealed until then suddenly emerged.
The energy that was being held within was exhaled at once.
The warriors of Seomun’s household were frightened by the great pressure and grabbed their swords.
If anything happened, they were thinking of pulling out their swords. However, they didn’t think they could beat this old man in front of them even if they unsheathed their swords.
Before even starting the fight, they had been defeated.
“I am a doctor called Il Chim Gui. Have you ever heard of me before?”
“I-Il Chim Gui?”
Of course, they have. But why was the Il Chim Gui here?
“I was invited by Ho mu ryun, I guess you guys haven’t heard the news?”
“W-we didn’t hear it.”
“I was already in a very bad mood because the lord, the beloved son of Seomun household who entered here, insulted me. Are you thinking of adding a spoonful to it?”
At those words, Seomun household’s warriors’ complexions died grimly.
It was only then that they remembered what happened at the hostel. Then it turned out that this old man in front of them was there.
They naturally remembered the words and actions Seomunjaehak said to Il Chim Gui.
“Don’t you think it’s a good chance to pick up your lost reputation again? There will be no chance to re-raise the reputation of Gu Yang Household and the Chu Household.”
“P-Please head on in. But… … .”
“But what?”
“You are a little late. We heard screaming from the inside since earlier… … .”
Il Chim Gui laughed.
“Screams? Then I guess that is good. It doesn’t look like they were killed. After we enter, no one enters and no one comes. Do you understand what I’m saying?”
“Y-Yes, of course.”
Il Chim Gui streaked into the forest with Chun Chu Shin Ui.
Seomun household warriors, who were watching the figures, muttered.
“By the way… Is it really Il Chim Gui? Could we have sent him in without even checking?”
Only then they began to feel a little nervous.
But it was already spilled water. What to do since they already let them in.
They couldn’t respond calmly, as usual, being overwhelmed by the aura of Il Chim Gui.
It wasn’t that they didn’t check for no reason, but Il Chim Gui was pressuring them with his aura so much that there was no time to confirm.
Anyway, the Seomun household warriors forcibly swallowed up their uneasy feelings and tried to be alert again.

“Oh, this is why people have to make a name. we just passed through with the mention of your name.”
“Do you think honestly think we passed because of a name? You are clumsy.”
“Because there was value in the name, crushing them with the pressure of your aura was easily done. That’s why you used your name. Without a name, you wouldn’t have been able to avoid fighting.”
“No such thing. My needles would have pierced their heads before they managed to pull their swords out.”
“You came to stop the lord from killing someone, and you are acting like you would kill someone yourself? Let’s try to have some common sense shall we?”
Il Chim Gui stopped and stared at Chun Chu Shin Ui.
He was trying to ask why he was doing this, but Chun Chu Shin Ui suddenly sped up and passed by.
Il Chim Gui looked up at the sky once again, lowered his head, and sighed for a long time.
“Do I really need to sew it? I think the lord will allow at least that much.”
Hearing that word, Chun Chu Shin Ui’s stepped more quickly.
“Huh? My lord!”
It seemed that Chun Chu Shin-ui discovered Byeoktaesan.
Il Chim Gui laughed and quickly ran to the side of Chun Chu Shin Ui.
“My lord, what are you doing there?”
Byeoktaesan was standing, and the three people who were scolding earlier were lying side by side on the floor.
Chun Chu Shin Ui looked at Byeoktaesan with frightened eyes.
“Surely, no way!”
“If you just say one more word, I’ll make you look the same.”
Chun Chu Shin Ui’s mouth shut.
“But why are they like that?”
“I pulled some blood. When I pulled it out a bit, they foamed a bit, but their body is fine.”
He didn’t know what he pulled, but he needed to check anyway.
“Can I go and see?”
As Byeoktaesan nodded, Chun Chu Shin Ui and Il Chim Gui hurried to the Seomunjaehak gang.
And after a while, he nodded.
It was just as Byeoktaesan said.
They were a little bit stiff as if they were a little surprised by something, but there wasn’t much trouble with their life.
