Cheonma Wants to Live Quietly

“Huh? Confucius!” Soso’s eyes twinkled as she looked at the passing Byeok Tae-san.

It was a face one could see every day and feel better from it. But today, Byeok Tae-san’s expression looked a little different from usual.

“You seem strangely excited…”

Danyoung, who was with him, asked with regards to Soso’s murmuring. “Are you excited?”

“Yes, how do you feel about your sister?” Danyoung looked carefully at the wall, Taesan, and tilted her head.

“Well. It seems like that….”

“And you look a little impatient somewhere.”

“Surely….”

It was also visible in Danyoung’s eyes. Byeok Tae-san had such an atmosphere these days.

“Never do that. It’s been ten days since you started staying here.”

“I was told that I still need at least five more days… Confucius, it must be difficult.”

Danyoung smiled playfully at Soso. “Then go and comfort Soso.”

“Yes? Me, me? Uh, how are you?”

“Well, how can I comfort you?” At this, Soso’s face turned red. Danyoung was so cute that she hugged her tightly.

In addition to this, she rubbed her cheek. “Hey, sister. Don’t do this. It’s a smashed expression.”

“Uh? It’s super low.” Danyoung rubbed Soso’s face, then she noticed that Cho Seo-ran was passing somewhere and her eyes twinkled. Cho Seo-ran’s gaze was fixed on Byeok Tae-san.

Meanwhile, Soso gently grabbed Danyoung’s hand that was holding her cheek and pulled it off. “Obviously something happened. Is that not it?”

At that, Soso opened her eyes and looked at Danyoung and Cho Seo-ran alternately. “That, well.”

“Super Soju, don’t you think you’ve been getting prettier and prettier lately?”

“Yeah, but…”

That was the clearest evidence of what had happened. This was because everyone who spent one night with Byeok Tae-san became so pretty. Soso couldn’t deny it because it was something she had personally experienced. Danyoung nodded her head as if it was natural.

“If you get caught by our Confucius, that’s what happens to everyone.”

Soso looked at Danyoung with an awkward expression. ‘That’s because my sister thinks too much on the side of Confucius.’

She liked Byeok Tae-san, too, but she couldn’t think of only Byeok Tae-san like Danyoung like that. Occasionally, if one were to look at the maids of Byeok Tae-san, such as Danyoung and Chaewol, you could see them thinking and acting cute around him.

At times, it was terrifying. ‘Well, it’s all because they like our Confucius, but….’

Soso turned her gaze again and looked at Cho Seo-ran, who was only looking at Tae-san from a distance.

‘Is that going to happen to him too?’ Cho Seo-ran looked at Tae-san for a while, sighed deeply, and then turned back. Danyoung saw this and took Soso’s hand.

“Now let us go. I have to prepare dinner soon.”

“Yes, sister.” Soso glanced behind Yeonsin while being led by Danyoung’s hand and looked at Cho Seo-ran.

Cheon Chushinui and Ilchimkai nodded as they watched Cho Seo-ran skillfully heal. Recently, Cho Seo-ran’s skills were on the rise.

“Of course, our Confucius.” Cheon Chushinui nodded his head broadly and said so. Now, Cho Seo-ran was treating Cheon Gyeongwan and Yoo Seo-yeon. Recently, the training of the two of them had become very intense, so after training, they often got seriously injured.

At first, Cheon Chushinui and Ilchimkai treated them both, but recently Cho Seo-ran had been almost exclusively in charge. The ability that was biased toward the weak was expanding in the other direction.

If one were to continue to develop in this way for several years, one would probably be able to build up skills that were comparable to those of Chushinui and Ilchimkai.

When Cheon Gyeongwan and Yoo Seo-yeon passed away after the treatment was over, Ilchimaki approached Cho Seo-ran. “Are you worried about anything these days?”

Cho Seo-ran shook her head helplessly. “No. just….”

“Just?”

“I’m just a little worried.”

“What?”

“It’s a thousand pills. I’m a little worried because it seems like I ran away too much.”

Hearing these words, Ilchimkai looked at Cheon Chushinui. “Why are you looking at me? What else are you going to talk about?”

“Did you not hear anything?” He asked this because he knew that Cheon Chushinui was also in charge of collecting information. Even recently, Chushinui frequently visited Ok Hwa to share opinions about what was happening in Uichang or Wuhan, or to help analyze information.

While Ilchimkai focused on medicine and martial arts, Cheon Chushinui focused on medicine and intelligence.

“What… It’s not like I haven’t heard anything….”

Ilchimkai and Cho Seo-ran looked at Cheon Chushinui with their eyes twinkling. “The situation at the Cheon Yakbang seems to have gotten a little more difficult.”

“Yes? Is that for real?” Cho Seo-ran’s eyes grew as bright as a fire.

“I can’t….”

He had only been away for a few months since he had left the Thousand Pharmacy. But what could happen in between? Moreover, he was supposed to get help from the Moorim League.

“Where did you hear that?”

“Where did you hear that? I heard it because Haomun is working hard to gather information about it.”

“Why is Hao-mun collecting information about our Cheon Yak-bang?”

“Because Confucius ordered it, so I’m doing it.”

“Then why Confucius?” He had heard that Haomun was at the foot of Mt. So he could simply believe that he had gathered information under the direction of Byeok Tae-san.

However, why did he have to gather information from a thousand drug stores?

“It’s weird.”

“Is that weird?”

“It is said that the cooperative structure between Moorimmaeng and Cheonyakbang will inevitably cause losses to Cheonyakbang, is that correct?”

At this, he nodded. “First of all, we are in a position to help. However, our Cheon Yakbang has the power to make up for that amount of damage quickly. After overcoming the initial difficulties….”

Cheon Chishinui shook his head.

“Now, the financial situation continues to deteriorate.”

“How…!”

Cheon Chushinui looked at Cho Seo-ran quietly and asked, “Is there any reason to keep Cheon Yakbang there?”

“Yes? What do you mean by that?”

“Is Cheon Yakbang open now? How about moving it to infinity?”

Cho Seo-ran’s expression hardened. “I’ll pretend I didn’t hear it.”

Cheon Chushinui nodded his head. “I was just letting you know that there is a way. Other than that, it’s up to you to decide.”

Cho Seo-ran suddenly wondered why Cheon Chushinui was talking like that. Chushinui said as if he knew all the questions. “Do you know by any chance that there are people who are aiming for the Thousand Yakbang?”

“I don’t know, and I thought it was a bit odd.”

How common was it that the flow of funds in a place like Cheon Yakbang was tangled? Moreover, if it continued, there was a high possibility that someone had done a trick.

“It seems that Haomun has investigated that part. They say there are a lot of artificial traces.” Sparks flew out of Cho Seo-ran’s eyes.

“Then you mean someone deliberately tried to destroy our cheonyakbang?” While saying that, Cho Seo-ran suddenly realized something, his eyes widening.

“If you did, holding the Moorimmaeng’s hand like that could have been poison!”

“The more time passes, the bigger the debt we owe to the Moorimmaeng. The flow of money will continue to be twisted.”

“Therefore…!”

“Right. One way to do this is to cut it all off and start over.”

“But the financial situation…”

Cheon Chushinui said in a soft voice. “Our Confucius, you are rich.”

He did this without even having to use the power of the top of the gold wall. To Byeok Tae-san, every time an incident occurred, the wealth he had accumulated was more than enough, and the money he had collected through Haomun’s power was enormous.

In addition to this, he could use Haomun’s money whenever he wanted. The business that Geumbyeok Sangdan was running in partnership with Homuryeon was also supposed to receive a percentage of net profits. In such a situation, it was nothing more than resolving the debt of Cheon Yakbang and helping with the transfer.

“More… Let’s think about it.”

“Don’t just think about it, let’s discuss it. One way is to contact the Cheon Yakbang and invite an infinite number of people who can help with decision-making.” Cho Seo-ran nodded with a heavy expression.

At first, he just went to the top of the golden wall just because I wanted to find traces of poisonous horses and to purify Tae-san. However now, things got a little bigger.

Of course, I didn’t regret it. If you hadn’t come here, the Cheon Yakbang could have been really wrong. Anyway, it was very reassuring to check the information in advance and have at least one solution.

“I’m going to go in a little early today and rest. sorry.” Cheon Chushinui and Ilchimkai waved their hands at the same time.

“Hurry up and rest.”

“Think carefully.”

Deep at night, Cheon Chushinui and Ok Hwa sat in the room of Byeok Tae-san. Of course, Byeok Tae-san was also there.

Ok Hwa was the first to speak. “Bang Du-Rip, the master of the Thousand Swords Dan of the Moorimmaeng, was at the center.”

“The Thousand Swordsman? If it’s a Thousand Swords squad, are they those who use swords? Why do they have their eyes on the Cheon Yakbang?”

When Cheon Chushinui tilted his head and asked, Ok Hwa calmly answered. “Paying an eye on the Cheon Yakbang is not a bang-doo-rip. He just took on the role of making things happen.”

“Then you are saying that there are other people who take the Cheon Yakbang. Where are you?”

“It’s the top of the month.”

Cheon Chushinui nodded his head. It was definitely possible if it was the top of this month.

It is possible to twist the flow of money in the Cheon Yakbang, and it was quite possible to recruit helpers from the Moorimmaeng. Byeok Tae-san, who had been listening all the time, asked, “A guy named Bang Doo-rip, was he just subsumed? Or is he in the top of this month in the first place?”

“That part is still being explored. But given the circumstances, it seems like the relationship is too deep for him to just be subsumed.”

“Action?” Ok Hwa bowed her head slightly to answer Byeok Tae-san’s question.

“The debt owed by Cheon Yakbang was transferred to Haomen. And we are inducing the relationship with the Moorimmaeng to be settled slowly.”

And while doing so, Haomun’s existence was never revealed. The existence of the top of this month was discovered in the process. He was so disturbing that Hao Mun’s existence was almost revealed.

“Then, will you only owe Cheon Yakbang Eunhaomun?”

“Yes. All the damage caused by Cheon Yakbang’s dealings with Moorimmaeng will be accrued to Haomun as debt.” That was why it was induced to organize the relationship with the Moorim League.

Because it might get heavy. Byeok Tae-san looked at Cheon Chushinui this time. Cheon Chushinui said confidently. “Who am I, I am not the best in the world of persuasion. We talked well today, so we will make a positive decision soon.”

Cheon Chushinui, who had talked up to that point, asked cautiously. “But, Confucius. The reason why you want to move the Cheon Yakbang to infinity… do you have in fact, the opening isn’t bad either. There is also a Moorimmaeng in Jeongju nearby, so there will be a corner where I can use something later.”

“The members of the Cheon Yakbang are very useful.”

“Yes? senator? No, Confucius. Why are you doing this sadly? If you are a member of the parliament, you are not a member of the National Assembly.”

Byeok Tae-san looked at Cheon Chushinui quietly and said, “Then you can come to my room tonight. I needed a good senator, and it worked.”

Chushinui immediately noticed the situation and changed his face. “Rumors are spreading that the members of Cheon Yakbang are excellent. After all, to protect Confucius, you must have that level of fame and skill. It’s okay.”

Cheon Chushinui smiled and continued. “If that’s the case, you didn’t tell me earlier. I will persuade Seo-ran more actively in the future. Oh, how about we go now and say a few more words before we go to bed?”

Byeok Tae-san laughed bitterly. “Okay, let’s take a look at the list of non-heavenly temples near Uichang. I’ll have to meet them for a while.”

Cheon Chushinui’s eyes gleamed. “I will colonel immediately!”

It took a total of twenty-five days to analyze and dismantle the manor’s formula. As the time went on, Seung Do-heung became engulfed in irritability and anxiety, and later became so exhausted that he thought he might lose his mind.

Anyway, the job was done very nicely, and he immediately reported it to Byeok Tae-san.

“Confucius, it’s over.”

Byeok Tae-san looked at Seung Do-heung silently and asked, “Have you improved your skills?”

“That’s right.”

Byeok Tae-san asked again at Seung Do-heung’s confident answer. “Have you overcome the illusion?”

At this, Seung Do-heung was speechless. Why is the ghost coming out here, and how can he possibly overcome it by himself?

However, he couldn’t easily say no. Byeok Tae-san looked at Seung Do-heung quietly and then turned around. “I’ll be watching you for a while.”

Seung Do-heung left those words and stared blankly at the back of Tae-san. His mind was complicatedly tangled.

‘Would you like to watch? Does that mean you’ll see it soon? Are you going to kill me later? Or is it that we should do better in the future?’

He thought of all kinds of things. Anyway, that was his last day at Uichang.

In the end, Byeok Tae-san and his party headed to Wuhan again after a longer schedule than expected
