Chapter 7
Episode 7: I Didn’t Know, Old Man (1)
At first, there were only two.
Ten days later, there were now six chickens and two ducks.
Recently, the bandits seemed to have sensed this and strengthened their guard, making it impossible to steal more.
“Hehehe. “There’s no need to worry now.”
Eugene San was in a very good mood.
He was expanding the chicken coop by weaving bamboo. The laughter never stopped coming from my mouth.
“Habae!”
Yoo Seol toddled over and stretched out his finger.
A finger like a peanut was pointing at a chicken.
“Okay, I got it. Let’s do it with this guy.”
Without hesitation, Eugene-san grabbed the wing of the chicken that was pointed out.
His granddaughter Yoo Seol followed behind him as he headed toward the kitchen. Although I occasionally fell, I was able to walk quite well as time went by.
Taang-!
After cutting off the chicken, he made a cut and drained the blood. Then he started plucking the chicken’s fur.
It was his first time eating meat in a long time, so his heart was pounding very hard.
They threw a whole chicken into boiling water and threw in herbs that had been dug up in advance from the mountain.
“If you want to eat it, try it. “I’m hungry.”
“Bae Oh.”
My pronunciation wasn’t correct yet, but I was following along well as instructed.
As I poached the chicken and seasoned it with salt, an amazing smell filled the kitchen.
Some time passed and the food was ready.
Yujinsan and Yuseol squatted down facing each other. I was planning on eating in the kitchen.
“Now, let’s eat.”
As soon as the chicken was cut into small pieces, Yoo Seol’s mouth opened automatically.
Even though his teeth weren’t fully grown yet, he was able to chew and eat well.
As if it was delicious, he smiled brightly and repeatedly clapped his hands together.
“haha. Yes, eat a lot.”
Just looking at Mount Eugene made me feel full.
I couldn’t help but smile happily as I looked at my cheeks puffing up after putting a lot of chicken in my mouth.
Yuseol kept opening his mouth without swallowing, but there was no room to put anything in.
Now he had to have a bite himself. My stomach was rumbling and screaming.
As I grabbed the chicken leg, my mouth started watering.
I was just about to taste it.
Clink-!
It was the sound of pottery breaking.
It was clearly pottery that had been tied together with thread and placed in a radius of about 20 pieces.
Someone had invaded the territory and approached a short distance away.
‘These guys again…’
I got frustrated. I expected it, but it happened to come at such an important moment.
“Grandpa, I’ll be home soon, so just wait a moment.”
Yoo Seol just blinked with a puzzled expression. I had to hurry and leave before I started crying.
As he ran away, the chicken leg was still in his hand.
As expected, a dozen bandits could be seen looking around not far away.
“I warned you not to fall, but will you come to your senses only if you see blood?”
The bandits sneered without even moving.
It seemed like there was a part of him that believed the threat, as it didn’t work at all.

“Lord, this is an old man.”
A bandit the size of a house stepped forward.
A grim face with a bushy beard. Moreover, he was holding an axe. It was an appearance that truly spoke of the appearance of a bandit.
He frowned and spat harshly, as if trying to overpower them.
“Kyaak kyaak! “Not only did they mark the territory at the headquarters of Heuksanchae, they must have stepped on our children?”
Yu Jin-san narrowed his eyes and looked at him.
The prayer emanating from Bujuju’s entire body was different from that of other bandits.
There were signs of expert martial arts training, and he was implicitly exploring himself.
But that wasn’t enough to make Jinsan nervous.
“That guy looks so ignorant. “There’s no time, so come in quickly.”
However, the confident debtor could not easily launch an attack. This was because the momentum of Mt. Eugene was putting pressure on him.
“….”
Yu Jin-san was so hungry that he took a bite of the chicken leg he was holding in his hand.
“It tastes pretty good. “You should try it too.”
The chicken leg thrown by the old man was aimed at the fan owner’s right shoulder.
A hearty bet encased in chicken bones. Buju noticed this and quickly tilted his upper body to the left.
As expected, it was an evasive movement moving towards the cashier. And Yu Jin-san was already rushing towards him.
When the debtor noticed the surprise attack, the old man’s fist was hitting him in the face.
It was so fast that it was impossible to avoid it.
Wow!
“Ugh!”
It seemed like a light hit, but my head turned as if my neck was broken.
Chapped lips and dripping nosebleeds. The bandits who were watching this were shocked.
Yu Jin-san thought the bandits would lose their will to fight and give up.
But before he knew it, Bu Bu-ju, whose eyes had rolled back, was swinging an ax at himself.
Wow!
If left as is, the top of his head was destined to split in two.
Yu Jin-san’s left hand moved towards him and grabbed the approaching sack. At the same time, the right palm rose up and pointed under the opponent’s chin.
Yuga Geongonjang (劉家乾坤掌) One second food, one wave and no heun (一破無痕).
Kwaang-!
A man with a huge body like a mountain slowly collapsed.
My log-like knees hit the ground.
His eyes were unfocused, as if he had fainted.
“You are prepared to invade the territory, right?”
Jinsan Yu glared at the other bandits.
Although they were nervous, they seemed to have faith in the number of people.
“…don’t be scared! “He’s just one crazy old man!”
“Everyone attack at once!”
The bandits and Yujinsan’s new form collided and swirled.
I couldn’t wait too long because my granddaughter was waiting in the kitchen.
When he gave his all, the bandits had no talent to hold on.
Wow!
“Kaaak!”
Each time a dull sound erupted, the bandits fell away one by one.
At best, they were only third-rate. The fight didn’t last long.
No matter how many people there were, the bandits in front of Yujin Mountain were just a ragtag bunch.
Not even half an hour had passed before there was only one bandit left.
“…I’m sorry, old man.”
He seemed to have given up the will to fight.
Jinsan Yu made a dumbfounded expression.
“Didn’t you say earlier that you were a crazy old man? “Now that I think about it, you are the guy who came to visit not long ago.”
He was a bandit who had already been severely scolded. It seemed like he was leading the way.
“That’s not what I said. “I was only providing guidance.”
Jinsan Yu was about to retort something.
Suddenly both his hands began to tremble.
“Ugh!”
His complexion suddenly darkened.
‘Well, it’s times like this…’
The brain attack had begun.
The bandit, who was standing alone and watching the scene, was confused. An old man who was living up to his feet suddenly falls to the floor and starts convulsing. In the end, isn’t it enough to scream?
“Kwaaaak!”
I don’t know what happened, but it was a golden opportunity.
The bandit’s foot kicked Yujinsan’s abdomen non-stop.
Wow! Bah!
“Dude!”
The old man, who had fallen to the floor and groaned, continued to struggle, curled up like a shrimp.
I was able to withstand the bandit’s kicks. It was nothing compared to the pain of a brain attack.
But what made it even more difficult for him was his worry about his granddaughter, who would be alone in the kitchen.
This situation continued.
To make matters worse, the bandits who had fallen stood up one by one and joined the group.
“How dare you insult our Heuksan Island?”
“Tread on it and kill it!”
Puff! Puff puck!
“Oooooh!”
Yujinsan was already in a state of no resistance.
His trembling hand was pulling out a leaf from inside his bosom. It was a golden leaf herb that alleviated the pain of brain cramps.
At that time, someone raised one hand and shouted.
“Everyone stay still!”
He snatched it from Yu Jin-san’s hand and shouted with a bewildered expression.
“what? Did you even touch the gold leaf plant? “You’re completely out of your mind.”
This rare herb, which grows in the mountains, paralyzes the nerves and is highly addictive, so its use was banned in the country.
The bandit who took the golden leaf plant threw it away and asked.
“How to? “Kill me like this?”
At that moment, the debtor who had fainted finally came to his senses and said.
“They will take you alive.”
The blade of the debtor’s hand struck the back of Jinsan’s neck.
Wow!
Yu Jin-san, whose eyes were opened, fainted and fell down.
* * *
Chaeju of Heuksando was sitting on a leopard chair and clasping his hands together.
His expression looked quite serious.
“You… you were the only one who got hit?”
“He was a retired martial arts expert, brother. “If he hadn’t suddenly had a seizure, we would have been wiped out.”
Who is the debtor? It is said that the second person of Heuksando was beaten without even being able to resist. I couldn’t believe it while I was listening.
“I guess we made a mistake.”
“…What do you mean?”
“You killed a Taoist of the Shaman sect, so revenge will come soon. How long do you think we can survive on our own? Anyone can do it, so we need reinforcements.”
“There’s no reason for that old man to help us in the first place.”
Chaeju felt like grasping at straws.
How could I have guessed that my neighbor, who was living in seclusion in the same mountain, was such an expert?
“Still, I guess I should try. “I have to meet him in person.”
“But for that… I think we’ve already come too far.”
“why?”
“…A little while ago, the kids beat the old man like he was beating a dog and tied him up. “The moment we let them go, they might try to kill us all.”
Chaeju touched her forehead with her right hand as if she had a headache.
Even if I served him with utmost sincerity, I didn’t know if he would help me or not, but since he acted so viciously, it was as if I was kicking the luck away.
But wouldn’t it be worth it to get to the bottom of the scale?
“Please guide me first.”
* * *
Yu Jin-san opened his eyes and hurriedly looked around.
I couldn’t tell how much time had passed.
I became very anxious when I thought about my granddaughter who would be alone in the kitchen. The pain I felt throughout my body was nothing.
“Oh my baby….”
He was trapped in a cage somewhere.
Moreover, there are chains wrapped around both hands. It was the worst situation.
At that moment, a bandit was standing guard ahead.
“Look! “How long has it been since I came here?”
“Are you awake? “It must have been about half an hour.”
“Please let me out! “There’s a place I need to go quickly now!”
“If you were going to let me go, you wouldn’t have caught me, right? “If you want to die gracefully, just shut up and sit down.”
Jin-san Yu tried to strengthen both hands, but the chain did not budge.
It didn’t seem to be an ordinary chain.
‘What can I do with this?…’
It seemed like the thick iron bars could only be cut by using a tool to release energy.
But all that was visible around was straw.
He was just thinking of a way.
The inner door of the palace was opening and someone was coming inside.
Wow!
A middle-aged man with the sharp appearance of a leopard. He was the owner of Heuksan Island. Behind him, the owner of the debtor with a grim expression was standing politely with his hands clasped together.
“Chae-ju, what are you doing here…”
Chae-ju sternly slapped him in the face.
Sigh-!
“Hey you bastard, don’t you have a father? “Does it make sense to imprison an elderly person like this?”
“…yes?”
The bandits who were standing guard felt unfair. What crime do you mean you are guilty of?
“Since when have we, Heuksando, been beasts without any sense of humanity or righteousness? Arrest all the people who hit the elderly here! “Just leave these guys alone…”
Chaeju, who had been huffing for a while, changed his expression and approached Yujinsan.
The old man had a puzzled expression.
“…?”
“I’m really sorry. “If I had known that there were adult neighbors in Yangju Mountain, I would have gone and said hello to them in advance, but it seems that my children are sensitive these days and made a mistake.”
“Okay, so please release this first.”
The most urgent need for Yu Jin-san was to return to his residence. I didn’t care about anything else.
However, there was a hint of anxiety remaining in Chaeju’s eyes.
As Cha Chae-ju said, it was clear that he was a martial arts expert who could not be handled even at a glance. The subtle anticipation emanating from the eye light was such that it was burdensome to encounter it.
If they released them carelessly and then took action against them, there would be no way. First, I decided to just open the door and see the reaction.
“Yes, of course you should! “I will open the door first. I went to get the key for the chain on my wrist, so please wait a moment.”
“Please hurry.”
Chaeju began to carefully open the prison door, observing the old man’s notice.
“Please stop your anger.”
Clap!
The door that had imprisoned Eugene San slowly began to open.
