Chapter 115 (1/2)

“It is here.”

The place they arrived with Hao Mundo was a fairly large house. Similar sized houses were clustered nearby. It seemed to be a town where people with little money lived.

There was a long wall of high walls, and in the middle was a large, tightly closed door. Byeok Tae-san tilted his head in front of the door.

“Are you sure you are here?”

“Yes. I’m sure. His name is Seung Do-heung. He was a master of considerable skill. However, it was not a well-known name. He moved to Uichang three months ago and has lived in this house ever since.”

Tae-san, who nodded once at the information Hao Mundo was reciting, approached the door and gently pushed it with his hand.

Then, the door opened gently. Haomundo’s eyes widened. That door was obviously locked.

However, looking at it now, it didn’t seem like that.

‘Is it strange? Seung Do-heung is really strict with only one thing?’

Hao Mundo hurriedly followed Byeok Tae-san into the house.

“There are a lot of people who live here. So, please say goodbye to me at once…”

His words didn’t go any further. The chill he felt the moment he entered the house made him shut his mouth.

His experience of sneaking into countless houses was telling him. It was going to be really hard to find people in this house.

“This house is empty.” Haomundo nodded his head at Byeok Tae-san’s words. “Yeah, it seems so.”

Byeok Tae-san strode past the garden and entered the building. The inside of the building was empty. No one stole the furniture or anything. There was no sign of touching anything.

He probably didn’t touch the furniture on purpose. If one were to take things outside or break them inside, there was a high chance that they would be revealed.

Byeok Tae-san went inside and looked around, then snapped his finger at Hao Mundo. Haomundo quickly approached Byeok Tae-san.

“Are you tracking me?”

“I can do it, but there are people who are better than me when it comes to tracking. May I call you?”

When Byeok Tae-san nodded, Hao Mundo ran out and came back after a while. He then delivered the instructions of Byeok Tae-san to Hao Mundo, who was nearby.

Soon, the three Hao Mundo rushed in.

“I heard you found it.”

“Examine the traces in this. Find out where these guys have gone.”

“Yes.”

At this, the Haomundos quickly dispersed and began to look for traces. Byeok Tae-san had no intention of entrusting everything to them alone.

Slowly looking around the house, he carefully grasped the traces or the flow of qi. “He said he was a jinbeopga, and he also put jinbeop in his house.”

Hao Mundo, who was standing next to him, was startled by the murmuring of Byeok Tae-san.

“Are you saying that there is a truth in this house?”

“Okay.”

Of course, he didn’t know what the truth was. However, there was a truth that was not quite small in scale.

“Hmm.”

Byeok Tae-san carefully observed the flow of Qi. In addition to this, he figured out the structure through it.

“It smells like blood.”

If it smelled like blood, it meant that blood was spilled here. “How long do you think this house has been vacant?”

“It must have been over a month, at least.”

A faint smell of blood still lingered, even after a month has passed, indicating that a lot of blood had been spilled. Something had happened.

Byeok Tae-san then stood there and waited for a while. First, Hao Mundo must find a clue to their pursuit. If this was broken, it would be quite difficult to find traces.

“I found traces.”

“Okay?”

Byeok Tae-san laughed and raised his feet. Everyone looked at Byeok Tae-san with bewildered expressions.

Byeok Tae-san slammed his foot down.

Thud! A gigantic echo spread out in all directions, centering on the foot of Byeok Tae-san. The Hao Mundos were standing next to Mt. Byeoktai and felt that an invisible force was pushing them away.

Eventually, it was pushed back. Awesome! The sound of something twisting and breaking could be heard throughout the house.

Byeok Tae-san stood still and moved while looking to one side. “Anyway, the insidious things called Jinbeopga don’t change.”

The Haomundos followed Byeok Tae-san with expressions that could not be understood. The place where Byeok Tae-san was headed was the backside of the building. Those who arrived at the support opened their eyes wide to see the change from before.

A pit had formed in the corner of the backing. It was as if something underneath had fallen and the soil had been rolled up. With that, jinbeop installed in this house was meant to cover that pit.

As Byeok Tae-san destroyed the jinbeop, a pit that had been covered by the jinbeop appeared. Byeok Tae-san strode towards the pit. All of the Haomundos were attached to the back of Byeok Tae-san and followed them with curious expressions.

Inside the pit was a box made of porcelain iron. When Byeok Tae-san was beckoning, one of Hao Mundo quickly went down to the pit and took out a box. Then, after shaking off the dirt from the box, he politely presented it to Byeok Tae-san.

Byeok Tae-san received the box, which had no seams in it. It was as if it was made by melting and hardening ink iron in a box-shaped frame.

However, this was clearly out of the box. This was because his stomach was empty. The Hao Mundo looked at the box that Byeok Tae-san was holding with curious eyes. If it was a box like that, it seemed like it would have to be ripped off with force.

Actually, they were not confident, but if they were about Byeok Tae-san, they would be able to rip them off with just their fingers. However, Byeok Tae-san didn’t do that. He just looked around the box with strange eyes.

“Look at this?” Byeok Tae-san murmuring surprised Haomundo. The tone was so cold. It seemed to him that he could feel a soft life. click.

At this. Haomundo’s eyes widened. The box was opened as to what Byeok Tae-san did. It was obviously a seamless box, only the lid fell off.

Inside the box was a bluish vial and a needle made of iron. The vial had a tightly sealed mouth, and Byeok Tae-san pierced the vial with a needle.

With that, he sniffed the smell that was coming out of it. Byeok Tae-san checked the smell and then rubbed the hole with his finger.

Then, the hole drilled with the needle was filled like a ditch.
