Chapter 534 - When Yeonjeokha goes, we go too

Seven days have passed since the day the one-eyed demon escaped to Naeak.

In the meantime, the people of Geumdanmun have found another colony of 'Ilyeopseoncho'.

However, Yeon Jeok-ha and his party could not find a single bellflower root.

The one-eyed demon no longer appeared in external areas.

Everyone believed that the one-eyed demon had settled in Naeak or escaped elsewhere.

Then, at the Golden Gate, ten more people were sent.

It is to dig up even one more root of Yeongji Seoncho before winter begins.

Rumors that the people of Geumdanmun visited Woraksan Mountain quickly spread throughout Gonghwhyeon.

Munpas from Gonghwhyeon and the four neighboring prefectures visited the Worak Mountain campsite.

When people came to visit, Geumdanmun revealed a secret that he had been hiding.

Gonghwhyeon and four neighboring prefectures were turned upside down.

“I drove out the one-eyed demon from Hyeoncheonmun and Geumdanmun with internal evil!”

“The one-eyed demon escaped with internal evil at the swordsmith of Dong Bang-yu, the first disciple of Golden Gate!”

“I caught a ‘silver’ white tiger in Geumdanmun and pulled out twenty-five roots of ‘Il-yeopseoncho’!”

Of course, the corpse of the ‘pension’ Baekho was taken, but as is usual with rumors, it turned out that they had been caught.

In fact, compared to the one-eyed demon driven out, Baekho, a ‘pensioner’, was no surprise.

In the first few days, Yeon Jeok-ha's name went up and down, but he was soon buried in Dongfangyu.

Merchants in Gonghwhyeon actively spread the rumor that ‘Worak Mountain’s outer area is safe’.

It was to make up for the losses of the past three years.

Soldiers from the five prefectures near Mt. Worak flocked to Gonghwhyeon for the last fight.

Returning to the camp after hiking, Yeon Jeok-ha and his party were surprised to see that the camp was full in one day.

There were so many people that it was difficult to find their seats.

As I barely managed to find my seat, it was full of strangers to the front, left and right.

Yeonjeokha, who looked around him with bewildered eyes, asked Gongjiyu.

“Were there originally this many people in Woraksan?”

“It wasn't like this. They were banned from entering the mountain for three years, so they seem to have come more than usual.”

"her! The competition will be fierce.”

“For now, the only place I can safely go is outside areas.”

An awkward smile appeared on Gong Ji-yu's face.

The number of people has steadily increased over the past few days.

But the campsite is full in one day?

Considering that it was seven days ago that the one-eyed demon escaped with internal evil, it was excessive heat.

At that moment, a loud chatter was heard from nearby.

“Anyway, traders! What kind of pork do you take six hundred pieces for three pounds? is that a restaurant? No matter how campy you are, why do you charge so much for raw meat?”

“That’s right. Isn't that almost double compared to what you sell in town? No matter how much it is before winter, there are no thieves.”

“It means to enjoy the special features of Woraksan Mountain.”

“After all, they are thieves. You shouldn't buy that. If no one buys, the price will go down.”

“If I don’t buy it, I can’t survive at the campsite, so I live by crying and eating mustard.”

“By the way, Seongho, are you sure that the one-eyed demon is not in outer areas?”

“Yes, thirteen people were put in at the Golden Gate. Aren't those people information the fastest and surest? It should be safe enough to send half of Mundo.”

“That's true! Dongbangyu's martial arts are so good? Did you get any chance?”

“It must be true that the one-eyed demon took a surprise attack when it was paying attention to the master named Yeon Mo. If I kicked them out in a head-to-head confrontation, it must be a rumor.”

“Is anything known about the master named Yeon Mo?”

“There is no news yet other than that are the guest of Hyeoncheonmun.”

“I mean, it’s rare. There was no master with the surname Yeon in Choyangseong... … . It didn't just fall from the sky."

“It must have come from another castle.”

"hmm! He's not even a disciple of the clan, but he's a master who can stand up to a demon with one eye. I mean, it's amazing.”

Those who had raised their voices became quiet as the meat cooked.

Yeon Jeok-ha and his party also hurriedly lit a bonfire in the center of the camp and hung a pot on it.

Maybe because the number of people increased, the people of Geumdanmun didn't come anymore.

Thanks to this, Yeon Jeok-ha and his party went back to the traditional soup of Suyakju.

Lee Yoo-hyeon, who was drinking and eating porridge, asked Yeon Jeok-ha.

“Yeondaehyeop, there are about two days worth of rice left… … . How long are you planning to stay?”

“Until I find something.”

“Ah, yes… … .”

Lee Yoo-hyeon smiled awkwardly.

If merchants started to come and go to the camp, it was not difficult to procure daily necessities.

Gong Ji-yu, who had been watching quietly, spoke cautiously.

“In the next seven days or so, it will be difficult to stay home. You can think of it as almost finished when the merchants double or triple the price.”

The jeokha silently nodded his head.

Contrary to his calm expression, his insides burned.

Winter was right in front of him, but Yeongji Seoncho did not even see it.

In other words, while the people of Geumdanmun were looking for ‘pension’ white tigers and even ‘ilyeopseoncho’, they were only wasting rice.

If you spend the winter like this and come back in the spring, will you be able to save Yeongji Seoncho?

Maybe even in the spring I don't know if I'm going to have a good time.

His heart felt tight at the thought that he would continue to search for Yeongji Seoncho throughout the summer and fall.

'Damn it, I have to find my sister, but what was i doing in Worak Mountain?'

The more you think about it, the more ridiculous it gets.

I never thought I would come all the way to ‘Heaven of Kings’ to find Yeongji Seon-cho, not Namgung-yeon!

Yeonjeokha, who had been suffering inwardly so as not to show it, asked in passing.

“Gong Sojeo, that ‘Millennial Snow Lotus’. How much does it cost?”

“Even if I can’t do it, I’ll get 300 gold coins.”

The face of the jeokha, who had been dying, turned to life.

With 300 nyang, you can finish the work of Suyakju and leave for Hansanju.

“Are they selling well?”

"sure. It's Yeongji Seoncho, which is popular not only with religious sects but also with the general public.”

Yuk-hyun Lee, whose goal was to become the drug dealer, helped with a word.

“‘Millennium Snow Lotus’ is a panacea, so if you take it to any pharmacist, they will buy it right away.”

“Aren’t you planning on going to the snowy mountains?”

At Gong Ji-yu's question, he just laughed.

Gong Ji-yu asked again, feeling uncomfortable.

“Snow Mountain is in Naeak. Do you know that the one-eyed demon resides in Naeak?”

"It's just a snow mountain, isn't it?"

In an instant, Gong Ji-yu's eyes widened.

That was like saying, “I’m going to go that area.”

“Yeondaehyup, absolutely not. Didn't you fight the one-eyed demon last time?"

“Who goes to fight the one-eyed demon? Since you're a dog-eyed horse, don't you like warm places? So it won't be in the cold snowy mountains all year round.”

“Yeah, but it is. It’s a problem because you have to pass through Naeak to get to the snowy mountain.”

"are you okay. It won’t take long until I go to the snowy mountains if I go to light gongsul by myself.”

“… … .”

Gong Ji-yu did not refute.

If it was his inaction, he would not be in great danger if he met a single-eyed demon.

Gong Ji-yu and Lee Yoo-hyeon were shocked by Yeon Jeok-ha's remarks on snowy mountains.

“Excuse me. Listening to what you say, you look like Hyeoncheonmun, right?”

Gong Ji-yu hurriedly turned his gaze.

He was one of the unmanned people in the seat next to him who had been chatting with each other just a moment ago.

“Yes, I am Gong Ji-yu, the third great disciple of Hyeoncheonmun. What are you doing?”

“Ah, I am Gwak Cho-seong, a great disciple of Gosan-moon in Jeoksan-hyeon. I heard that the person over there fought the one-eyed demon. Is it someone called Yeon Mo?”

Kwak Cho-seong pointed at himself, and Yeon Je-ha nodded.

“I am Yeonjeokha, the chief of the Shigyeongjang.”

“Nice to meet you. I've heard a lot about you He said he fought the single-eyed demon alone?”

"yes."

“You look young, but you are amazing. But he heard that he was going to the snowy mountain. Do you really intend to enter my evil?”

“Not right now. If I can’t find Yeongji Seoncho before I leave Woraksan Mountain, I’m thinking about going there.”

“I heard that there is a one-eyed demon in the inner area, is it okay?”

"You know, I've fought once, but I don't think I'm about to die."

“Wonderful.”

Kwak Choseong glanced over Yeonjeokha's body.

I didn't really feel like a master.

Looking at the outside, he is a gisaeng brother, but he is just bizarre that he fought with a single-eyed demon.

With the exception of the one-eyed demon, there was no common story, so the conversation was sluggish.

Disappointed, Kwak Cho-seong threw a good word and returned to the seat of Go San-mun.

When his teacher, Kwak Cho-seong, returned, Shin Seong-ho, a disciple of Yi Dae, asked.

“Master, are the people of Xuan Tianmen really true?”

“I see.”

Baek Seol-heon, also a disciple of Lee, suddenly intervened.

“Which one of them is Yeon Mo?”

“The young man sitting in the middle asked him.”

“Oh, all three of them look young, but are they really Hyeoncheonmun people?”

Kwak Cho-sung didn't say anything.

According to him, rumors and reality are different, but his disciples are shocked.

Shin Seong-ho, who was carefully examining the people of Hyeoncheonmun, shook his head excitedly.

“The rumors are unbelievable, but that’s true. Did he even fight a single-eyed demon?”

Guo Cho-sheng did not answer and pushed a twig that was rolling around the campfire with his foot.

He himself was curious about that too.

What happened to him with the one-eyed demon?

No, is there a single-eyed demon in Woraksan Mountain?

No one has visited Woraksan since a major disaster occurred there three years ago.

‘Seeing so many people in Oekak… … .’

Kwak Cho-seong's eyes turned to Worak Mountain.

It makes no sense even if the one-eyed demon does not leave its territory.

So many people are boiling around the house, but you just watch it?

The one-eyed demon who considered Mt. Worak as her home?

It is very dubious for Yeonjeokha to say that he will enter Naeak.

Thinking that far, Kwak Cho-seong muttered.

“If the one-eyed demon hadn’t been in Worak Mountain… … .”

If so, it is explained that Dong Bang-yu and Yeon Jeok-ha expelled the one-eyed demon.

Shin Seong-ho's eyes, which had been quietly watching his teacher, widened to the size of a lantern.

"yes? There are no single-eyed demons in Woraksan?”

“Does Yeonjeokha look like a master who can stand on par with a single-eyed demon?”

“Not at all.”

Shin Seong-ho replied in a firm tone.

It was the same with Baek Seol-heon.

“Looking at their age, they are exactly the three great disciples in the main text. Would that be possible? A person like that would have already entered the Soyo class. Will."

“The sister-in-law is very kind. If you have that much talent, you will be hearing the sound of a genius even in soyojong. However, I don’t even see him as a disciple of a kinship family.”

“Sahyung, it’s not that you can’t see him, he says he’s not a disciple of the sect. That's for sure.”

Kwak Choseong nodded.

"right. He called himself the master of the Seokgyeongjang. It means that it has nothing to do with the sect.”

For a moment, Shin Seong-ho lowered his voice.

“I think Master is right. If there was no one-eyed demon in Woraksan, everything would be explained. The forbidden gate was playing a joke to gain fame. The outer area is crowded with people, but the one-eyed demon is stuck in the inner area and won't come out? It's a blatant lie.”

"ah!"

An exclamation flowed from Baek Seol-heon's mouth.

Certainly, the names of Jindanmun and Dongbangyu became widely known through this incident.

Kwak Cho-seong, who had been shaking his head, opened his mouth.

“It looks like Yeonjeokha will enter Naeak within a few days. And rumors will circulate again in a few days. They say they drove out the evil eyed demon from Yeonjeokha and Geumdanmun.”

"and! He is a really funny person.”

Seolheon Baek glanced at Hyeoncheonmun’s seat with bewildered eyes.

I wanted to run right away and blow off the ears of the guy who told me this story.

don't live life like that

Kwak Cho-seong's voice came to her ears.

“We can’t just let the forbidden door suck honey. The one-eyed demon of Naeak will be made by our Gosanmun. When Yeonjeokha goes to Naeak, we go too.”
