Chapter 96 (1/2)

The chimpanzee had been rubbing the herbs, and then he turned his head to stare at Cheon Chushinui.

“Oh, I’m really because of that guy…”

“Let’s not blame others. I did it alone. My brother is with us, so why are you talking about something different now?”

“Then did I stay still? Because of you, what is this?”

As soon as the monster said that, he stretched out his arms and pointed to the medicines piled up on the floor. There were so many medicinal herbs piled up in the garden that it ended up being hard to express in words as to how great it was.

This happened because of the words the two of them poured out while running away from Muryangbo. The Cheonchu Shrine must have also been made, and the Geumchang Yak and Naesangyak must also be made. They just had to be careful.

This was because Byeok Tae-san knew exactly the level of the two people, and Hao-mun and Yuk Tae-gu knew how much medicine they could make. Like Cheon Chushinui, Ilchimkai also had a knack for geumchangyak and internal sangyak.

In particular, Cheon Chushinui was great in the direction of Geum Chang Yak, and Ilchimkai was great in the direction of Nae Sang Yak. If the secrets of the two of them were mixed together, it may be possible to make something greater out of it.

That was the level that Byeok Tae-san wanted.

The problem was that the time and devotion that went into making a drug of that level was not easy. This was, after all, Cheonchu Shindan.

Even if it was made by almost grinding two doctors in the Cheon Yakbang, the Geumchang Yak and the internal medicine were left unmoved, and the two of them had to take care of it.

“I couldn’t sleep because of this, and I felt like I had to make medicine for the rest of my life, aren’t you feeling apologetic to me?”

Chun Chu Xin Yi opened his eyes and looked at the monster at once. “Why is my brother doing what I said? No, I mean, did I do it alone at that time? My hyung is excited too, and after pouring out hard words, why are you blaming me alone?”

“You should have taken good care of it! You guys always have that problem. I don’t know if it’s appropriate!” Cheon Chushinui waved his hand with an absurd expression. “Don’t make a fuss, go and shave. If we don’t get rid of all of these medicines today, we won’t be able to sleep from tomorrow.”

Knowing this, even the chimpanzee could not find it in himself to feel angry anymore. He took the jukseomjuseom jokdu and sat down, chopping the medicinal herbs.

“Uh-oh. What sin did I commit in my previous life that caused me to suffer?”

“Still, meeting me would have forgiven many of the sins I committed in my previous life.”

The scoundrel laughed bitterly. “Still, you know who he is.”

“Of course not. Does it mean that the sins of a previous life melt away just by being with someone with dignity and virtue like me? Brother, you are truly blessed. What would you have done if you hadn’t met me?”

At one glance, the monster looked at Cheon Chu’s faithfulness with absurd eyes, and then his face turned red. He clenched his fists and trembled.

“You are…” Cheon Chushinui quickly stopped talking about the invasion. “More than that, bro, are you really going to keep doing this?”

“What? What kind of bullshit question is that?”

“Ah, you have to hide your words, so I don’t really listen to you. If my dignity goes down like this, will you take responsibility?”

As the gangsters shot with their bloody eyes, Cheon Chushinui continued speaking again. “There should be at least a few legislators to manage medicines. Shouldn’t we get some sleep as human beings?”

“What… Don’t do that. Don’t you have any plans?”

Cheon Chushinui chuckled. “I am, the god of heaven, the god of heaven. I always have a plan.”

Ilchimkai listened to Cheon Chushinui with a sullen expression. “Come on, let’s send someone to the Cheon Yakbang.”

“Chunyakbang?”

“Isn’t there a good amount of medicine there? Let’s get a few lawmakers out of there.”

“I wish I could, but… Is it possible?”

“You can use those two over there.”

The two lawmakers in the Cheon Yakbang were vigorously stirring the pot with a spatula where Cheon Chushinui’s gaze could be reached.

There were a total of seventy men sent by Go Jun-kwang to take control of Wuhan. Among them, fifty were samurai, and twenty were sages who had no idea that they were partaking in martial arts.

All of them were managed by the wisteria, who had a person responsible for delivering his instructions, one each to the samurai and the gatekeepers.

However, they were not the ones who could take the initiative and do something because the horse was in charge and, in fact, only a messenger.

So, now that the conductor Rattan Yeop and the conductor Seo Do-gun had disappeared, they were thrust into a very confusing situation.

First, the task of turning the eyes of Moorimmaeng, Heukryeon, Namgungse, and Zhugesegae, which was the last instruction, was over. After the mission was over, each of them had to hide on their own in order to avoid their search and wait for the next instruction.

And so, everyone hid on their own. In addition to this, they had heard the news that Ja-yeop and Seo-do had been attacked by Byeok Tae-san. They didn’t hear it while gathering information, but rather, they heard a rumor that had been spread intentionally by Yuk Tae-goo and Hao-mun, who were imminently loyal to Byeok Tae-san.

They couldn’t help but panic, simply because they couldn’t receive the next instruction. That was the reason why the monks and the samurai were meeting and having a drink in this small dungeon.

“Perhaps now?”

The samurai answered the other samurai’s question calmly.

“I do not know. It seems to me that coming back is the procedure.”

“Are you going to abandon the great one?”

“Both of you must have a death wish.”

The warrior shook his head. “Not yet.”

The monk opened his eyes and looked at the warrior. “I found out a little bit because of the rumors. They said he was captured.”

“Are you two talking?”

The warrior merely nodded. If that was the case, things would definitely be a little different.

The monk’s expression soon became serious. “The gangsters are the problem.”

The samurai shook his head resolutely at the murmur of the gatekeeper. “You won’t be subject to their interrogation, and I can say this due to his type of character.”

“Yeah, but…” Even as he said that, he was a little shaky.

To be honest, Seo Do-gun was not someone who would give in to the fear of any kind of torture or death. However, torture and fear were not the only ways to extract information from people, and the samurai were also thinking a little bit about that particular part.

“Isn’t there a way to get the authority to move the influential people?”

The samurai frowned at this. “Someone has to come back and get new powers.”

“Then it’s too late to say this. Is there any other way?”

The samurai seemed to believe that the monk must know something. And in fact, he had the answer to that part. It wasn’t a very definitive answer, but it was a possibility.
