Episode 42. Jeomsoi wins!
Jang Deuk-su asked as he looked at Hong-shin lying face down on the table.
“Do you faint at the slightest word? “He’s not dead, right?”
I looked at the nape of Hongshin’s neck and shook my head.
“By the way, was there a sister-in-law?”
“It wasn’t there, but it appeared. “I’m the owner of the Black Cat Room now.”
“uh?”
When Jang Deuk-soo looked at me with surprised eyes, he confirmed it again.
“I am the Ark of the Black Cat.”
Deuksu Jang recalled my past actions and immediately understood.
“Oh, congratulations.”
“It was nothing. “This woman is also Hongshin, a member of the Twelve Gods.”
“Aha, so Samaeya?”
“We both became Daenachal’s disciples. What can I say about this fight? “It’s like a fight over whether Daenachal is a scary person or whether I am a scarier person.”
Jang Deuk-su, who had a vague understanding of the situation, clicked his tongue and said.
“Look at how he fainted right away. Just by looking at it, you seem to be scarier. If you have a daughter who is not in your eight characters, be kind to her. “You have a pretty face, too.”
I quickly turned my head and checked Jang Deuk-su’s eyes and expression.
“no way… … .”
“what? why?”
“Are you in love? At first sight? Fateful? Is it an escape?”
Jang Deuk-soo answered while avoiding my gaze.
“You’re talking bullshit.”
“Hey, Jang Deuk-su. Can’t you stand there? “Do you think it’s difficult to manage your facial expressions?”
“I’m going to do the dishes.”
When Jang Deuk-su entered the kitchen, Hong-shin’s breathing could be heard more clearly. The deeper your inner energy, the more sensitive you become to sound. Hongshin was still lying face down on the table, as if dead.
I glared at Hong Shin and muttered.
“After two people ate the whole pork bone, they must have passed out because it was so delicious that one of them might die.”
Jang Deuk-su, who was washing dishes in the kitchen, giggled.
“… … So, you have completely taken control of the Black Cat Room?”
“I took control. I can see a few people making a fuss, but I don’t think there will be any problems. “Sogunpyeong is so meticulous.”
“Ah, the person who lost to the kitchen knife back then?”
“Uh, that guy.”
“How long are you going to hide your identity?”
“Until I kill Daenaksa.”
“It’s a mountain beyond a mountain.”
I spoke in a casual tone to Hongshin, who was lying face down on the table.
“There are 10 days left, can you sleep?”
Hongshin stood up like a ghost and answered.
“no. “I will complete it ten days in advance.”
Jang Deuk-su stuck his head out of the kitchen and looked at Hong-shin with a surprised expression. Hongshin bowed his head to Jang Deuksu, who was talking comfortably with me even though he was one of the Twelve Gods. What was relevant to me going forward was my attitude of being unconditionally careful.
“I enjoyed the whole pork bone, thank you very much.”
“It was nothing. come again.”
“then. “I’ll just leave.”
Hongshin grabbed the gun and ran away from Chunyang Banjeom.
Hongshin ran away with long strides, but inadvertently turned his head to look inside the store.
The fake death penalty was glaring at him.
“… … .”
Next, the fake executioner slowly raised his hands up.
When I checked, it was clearly a sign language saying that there were 10 days left. Then, when the fake executioner pretended to slit his throat with his hand, Hongshin quickly turned his head, feeling scared.
Hongshin ran away at a fast pace, looked back, and whenever he heard a sound, he flinched and looked around as if he had just heard a game.
“omg! Nothing. “It was a leaf.”
After a while, as soon as a rustling sound was heard in the grass, Hongshin spoke in a surprised tone.
“execution? “Is this the death penalty?”
It was only when I saw a wildcat running away that I breathed a sigh of relief.
“no. “It was a wildcat execution.”
Hongshin, who was trying to carefully return, eventually started running towards the safe house he had previously prepared.
‘I’m scared, I’m so scared.’
A successful thief tends to set up a safe house here and there, and Hongshin was like that.
Today, I planned to go back to the nearest safe house and get my peace of mind first. This was because I felt like the regurgitant flow from my stomach had filled up under my chin.
Hongshin, who was running at the fastest speed since he was born, passed through the noisy downtown area, wandered through the alleys, and calmly entered an ordinary house, realizing once again the principles of the world.
“Of course home is the best. “Home is the best.”
It was a cozy safe house consisting of a small pond, a yard, a training center surrounded by a high wall, and the main building and outbuildings.
It was also a house purchased with money saved through reckless theft. However, Hongshin quickly looked around every corner of the house to see if suspicions had sprouted.
For some reason, I was afraid that someone might be hiding.
Even though I confirmed that no one was there, I sat down on the floor and spouted nonsense.
“execution? Are you here? If you’re here, come in and have a cup of tea. ha ha ha… … .”
“… … .”
After confirming that there was silence everywhere, Hongshin erased his fake smile and looked at his situation calmly.

‘If you keep doing this, you’ll go crazy. Not this. ‘Let’s come to our senses.’
At this time, someone knocked on the gate, which looked quite ordinary from the outside.
Knock, knock, knock.
Hongshin asked in surprise.
“who are you?”
Knock, knock, knock.
“who are you! “I’m not buying it!”
Suddenly Hongshin calmed his mind by taking a deep breath. She got up with an expression that said she was finally getting used to it, and then headed toward the front door.
“Oh, is this the death penalty? “I’m leaving.”
Hongsin thought that since the fake executioner’s Gyeonggong was superior to his own, it would not have been difficult to follow him.
When I opened the front door, a young man I had never seen looked at Hong Shin.
Hongshin said with a frown.
“What are you? Why are you knocking on the door without saying anything? “Do you want to die?”
A young man holding something tightly in both hands opened his dry lips.
“There are ten days left… … . I do not know!”
The man ran away making a clattering noise. It was a movement that was not even practiced in martial arts.
Hongshin looked at the fleeing guy with a mesmerized expression.
“That beggar foot wrap…” … .”
The young man seemed to be running away, but he suddenly bumped into someone and dropped what he was holding on the floor. The young man hurriedly picked up the eunja that had fallen on the floor and ran away.
‘Ah, my money… … .’
Hongshin suddenly heard a chirping sound in his head and held his forehead.
Did you say that humans are animals of adaptation?
Hongshin pressed his hand against his heaving chest and then took a deep breath.
“It’s money that was lost. Let’s forget it. Let’s forget it. It’s not my money. Peace of mind, woowoo… … .”
Hongshin said as he entered and closed the door.
“You just have to earn it again.”
At this time, someone’s laughter continued for a long time from a very distant place. The sound seemed to be laughing while performing a light attack on a roof-like place, and the sound was elongated at first and then gradually diminished.
It was a strange talent that used light pressure to increase the sound of laughter like taffy.
With that level of skill, it was bound to be a fake execution.
Suddenly, Hongshin shook his head with a serious expression.
Next, Hongshin’s eyes sank straight down, and even his expression changed to a truly cruel look.
What are the right words to express this change?
To put it as closely as possible, these were the eyes and expression of a crazy woman.
Hongshin, with madness in his eyes, spoke in a cold tone.
“… … “I will definitely kill you.”
Has he finally awakened? Or is it a declaration of war against fake executions?
The next words were like this.
“Baekja, Hwangoh, Noksul, you all died in my hands. Ohhohohohohoho.”
Hongshin’s laughter continued for as long as the fake executioner’s.
How far can a person go?
You never know.
Anyway, Hongshin also had one foot in that world.
Madness is an epidemic.
Hongshin was not an ordinary woman, but the hierarchy of invisible madness was organized like this.
Jeomsoi wins!
* * *
After practicing meditation for the first time in a long time, I felt more refreshed.
I ran at full speed from Heukdang Street, where the Black Cat Room is located, to Ilyanghyeon, and from Ilyanghyeon, I ran again to Magnolia downtown, where Hongshin’s safe house is hidden.
Helping a sister with an upset stomach and following her without worrying about whether she might find a bathroom on the way back are all part of the training.
Training should not stop even for a moment.
In particular, it was necessary to quickly raise light attack to the highest level.
This is because there are more than one advantage.
Above all, it is a means of escape that is essential for survival, and it can also help when someone faces a crisis such as diarrhea.
Above all, when the level of Gyeonggong reaches the highest level, most powerful people can join the Kuae Party, a mysterious force that is not even aware of its existence.
From ancient times, there were crazy people in Gangho who were obsessed with only one field of light engineering, and they secretly gathered together and competed in light engineering regardless of their religious sect.
A special title given to only one person.
To obtain the greatest pleasure in the world.
Alternatively, they are called Kwaejon (快尊) or Kwaedangju (快黨主) in honorable terms among themselves.
It is unknown when the meeting began. At first, it was just a small, irregular meeting.
But as time passed, this crazy gathering became beyond the righteous evil.
It has become a mysterious force that even the Murim League cannot properly understand. In my past life, I also became a member of the Kwaedang due to my excellent Gyeonggong skills, but I never reached the position of Kwaejon.
Because the world is wide and there are many experts.
In particular, it is usually not difficult to treat martial arts that focus on killing as a dedicated partner, and to overcome crazy people who train only to run fast with speed.
I got to know several masters at Kwaedang.
Because of their origins and blood ties, they were unable to escape the faction they had belonged to since childhood, but they dreamed of breaking away while working in the Kwaedang.
I sprinted to Ilyang County again, thinking about reuniting with the Kwaedang masters.
Nothing in this world is obtained for free.
It is the fun of life’s mystery that only after becoming stronger and faster can you set foot in a world you didn’t even know existed.
So, maybe I should run.
Even helping Samae, who was in need of poop, all have this hidden meaning.

After escaping for a moment from the rough, dark world where my hair was constantly rolling, I looked back and looked satisfied.
This is because the construction of Jaha Gaekjan is progressing smoothly.
As I was looking at the construction site with a happy smile for a while, Yeon Ja-seong, who had received reports from the workers, came to me with a white band on his head.
“Lord Moon, are you here?”
I nodded.
“You’ve been through a lot.”
“What about the hardships? “In a place like this, I can just call you brother, right?”
“of course.”
“Where have you been? Brother Seongtae said that he broke into the Black Tomb.”
I answered in a calm tone.
“The Black Cat Ark left because it had business to do in heaven, and I took over its great responsibility. “For the time being, it will be difficult to see you often because I have to go back and forth between Ilyanghyeon and Heukmyobang.”
“Oh, I see.”
“Have there been any troublemakers in the meantime? “I’m a little worried about Heukseonbo.”
“Is there that ponytail-haired soldier named Sima? That person often patrols Ilyang County with his subordinates. “Everyone has a scary atmosphere and everyone has swords, so it’s an atmosphere where no one can cause trouble.”
“Ah, there was Sima Fei.”
I am so prone to forgetting people’s existence.
“What about Cha Seong-tae?”
As soon as I asked, Yeon Ja-seong smiled and told me about the incident that had happened.
“I am currently training after being scolded by a Sima soldier while attacking him with a wooden sword. It’s already been 10 battles and all losses. It has become a famous attraction these days, so when Prince Sima and Brother Seongtae come together, quite a lot of onlookers gather.”
“Where are they fighting?”
Yeon Ja-seong said, pointing to the wide open space in front of the construction site.
“Because the space is large, we always meet here.”
I giggled and then responded.
“I’m embarrassed that this idiot, a man named Munju of Saengmun, always loses.”
In summary, it was good news to me because it said that Sima Bi and his group had integrated well into Ilyang County. Since he was skilled, even if Heukseonbo attacked, Sima Bi and his party would be able to handle it.
It would be rude to keep a busy person occupied for a long time, so I took out my wallet. Yeon Ja-seong grabbed my arm.
“Ah, brother. That’s it. What kind of money is this? “They are paying generous wages.”
I made a noise and threw away Yeon Ja-seong’s arm.
“Tsk, tsk.”
He took out five gold coins from Hongsin’s purse and handed them to Yeon Ja-seong.
“Keep it and buy me a drink whenever you feel like it. It’s something you do to make a living, but if you work too much, your body gets tired. Let’s have some fun and do that. “Put it away.”
“But aren’t you giving too much? “This is a rare golden child.”
“There are a lot of people giving congratulatory messages.”
Yeon Ja-seong grabbed Geum-ja and said she was sorry.
“Brother, I’m so sorry, it’s your hard-earned money. I will occasionally buy people snacks and drinks. “I will write well.”
“Well, it’s not that hard-earned money. Use it comfortably. Goes.”
“Please take a look.”
I walked around waving my hands.
Money is earned and then given away.
So for the time being, my only option was to make money by squeezing out black swords. In the first place, this is because the black swords are the ones who suck out the marrow of ordinary people.
The world works best when it works like this sometimes.
I raised the corners of my mouth at the sudden cheers of workers at the construction site.
