chapter 51
Chun Chu Shin Ui and Il Chim Gui were meeting Homu-ryeonju.
In fact, they thought they would meet him after a few more days.
Before that, they expected to have a face-to-face with the little ones, and only later meet him for a short time.
However, it wasn’t long after they arrived before he wanted to meet them for some reason, and they were a little surprised.
Apparently, it seemed that he even paused the work he had to deal with and promoted this meeting.
When they arrived, they confirmed that the expressions of the literary men did not look very good.
Maybe it was because things didn’t go smoothly.
“It is an honor to meet the renowned doctors.”
To the polite greetings of Homu-ryeonju, Il Chim Gui and Chun Chu Shin Ui also greeted each other.
“They are just vain rumors. We are very honored to see the person who commands Moorim in Hubei like this.”
“Huh, huh. What do you mean command? I am just a worker. I have a lot of complicated things these days, so it has been very troublesome as of late.”
Ho Mu-ryeon-ju, shaking a little bit like that, had a few words of formal conversation.
Chun Chu Shin Ui and Il Chim Gui also matched him appropriately because they had dealt with a lot of high-status people before so it wasn’t difficult.
“From what I heard, you two have joined the Gold Wall merchants… Is that correct?”
“You are correct.”
Chun Chu Shin UI replied. Il Chim Gui replied by nodding his head next to him.
“I thought it was really unexpected. You two were famous for not making any enemies. In fact, I know that there was a fair share of recruitment… … .”
Chun Chu Shin Ui nodded.
“I did. I even got proposals from Namgung Household and Jegal Household.”
As if he felt a sense of competition, Il Chim Gui said.
“People came from the Moorim League and Black Lotus as well.”
“Huh. You two are definitely amazing. To think even Moorim League and Black Lotus would send people.”
Homu-ryeonju’s heart chilled. What would have happened if Il Chim Gui entered Black Lotus?
Thinking about it made him even more greedy.
If Ho Mu-ryeon can have these two people, wouldn’t it be possible to go beyond being called a small Moorim League like now?
The power of an outstanding doctor was that great.
It was important that they excelled, but it was more so when you think about the doctors they will train.
Also, being excellent doctors meant that they can make excellent medicines as well.
As such, if the efficacy of medicines Geumchang and Naesang become better than they are now, Homu-ryeon’s power will rise rapidly.
But it was premature to talk about that now. He hadn’t laid enough groundwork yet.
It was something to be done step by step over a long period of time.
“So I was really curious. How did such people come to entrust themselves with the likes of the Gold Wall Merchants? I was curious about what kind of place the Gold Wall was to make this kind of achievement.”
Chun Chu Shin Ui smiled inwardly. Basically, he was looking to get some information for them.
He was trying to find out what Gold Wall had to make them so special.
“In my case… I just decided to work for someone who really knows me.”
He was telling the truth. No lies are mixed in.
If Byeoktaesan hadn’t completely seen himself, he would never have decided to join the Gold Wall.
Ho Mu Ryeon-ju was surprised to see that his sincerity was desperately revealed in his expressions and eyes.
“People who recognize you seem to be all over the world though… … .”
Chun Chu Shin Ui smiled.
“Everyone only saw my outer appearance, but the lord was the only one who looked deep inside me and acknowledged me.”
“Hmm!”
Homu-ryeonju truly admired that. Because he could definitely feel that Chun Chu Shin Ui truly enshrined the second son of the Gold Wall merchants.
Seomun-deok’s evaluation of Byeoktaesan came to mind as his words.
Ho Mu Ryeonju looked at Il Chim Gui this time.
Il Chim Gui hesitated for a while and said.
“I got caught up in a bet.”
“A bet?”
“I don’t know how much the people in the world know about me… but I like betting a lot.”
“I’ve heard of it.”
“My weakness was caught there. Although… I feel like this would have happened even if it wasn’t for the bet anymore.”
Ho Mu Ryeon-ju asked carefully.
“Then… Even you also entrusted yourself to the second son there rather than Gold Wall itself?
“That’s correct. Honestly, I don’t care much about the Gold Wall. If only our lord is safe, that’s all I need.”
The inside of Homu-ryunju’s head was messy.
In this way, there was no need to investigate the Gold Wall. No, it’s possible that these two people were hiding information, so he needed to investigate.
But something more important came up.
‘They said his name was Byeoktaesan right?’
Ho Mu Ryeonju decided to meet Byeoktaesan.
* * *
Soso looked around, turning her head around. Then she curled up like a cat and walked sneakily.
It was late at night, but the moon was bright, so there was no big problem with moving.
Soso’s face was covered with tension.
She had to go to Byeoktaesan’s room tonight.
She was very worried about Yeon Ha-rin’s gaze, who was looking at her, but she couldn’t help it. For Soso, Byeoktaesan was higher than Yeonharin.
And to be honest, it wasn’t that there wasn’t anything to expect. She was too embarrassed and she felt guilty towards Yeon Ha rin, but she forced herself to ignore it.
Anyway, as she walked sneakily, she arrived in front of Byeoktaesan’s room.
She couldn’t do this or that in front of him, so she heard a sound from inside.
“It’s annoying. If you’re coming in, come in. If you don’t like it, just leave.”
At first glance, it was a harsh and cold tone.
But Soso knew very well that that wasn’t the true intention of Byeoktaesan.
“Because you’re talking so badly.”
Soso carefully opened the door and went inside.
She saw the image of Byeoktaesan sitting on the bed with a cross-legged seat. Soso swallowed dry saliva without knowing it.
“Come and lie down. It’s better if you take off your clothes, but it doesn’t matter if even you don’t.”
Soso’s face turned red.
How can he say that without changing his expression?
Her thoughts shouldn’t be long. Soso quickly ran and went up to the bed and laid down on the blanket.
Byeoktaesan smiled as he looked down at Soso.
When Soso was trying to say something after seeing a burst of playful laughter, Byeok Tae-san put his hand on her head.
And he pulled out her spirit.
* * *
Soso left Byeoktaesan’s room before sunrise and returned to her room.
Soso shared the same room as Danyoung and Chaewol, but surprisingly, the two women were waiting without sleeping until Soso came.
So-so’s eyes were surprised and round.
“uh… Sisters, so uh. I uh… … .”
Her mind got tangled up so much and she didn’t know what to say or what she was saying.
Danyoung approached her.
And she hugged her quietly.
Soso softly closed her eyes, feeling indescribable comfort.
After calming down, Danyoung and Chaewol sat down with Soso in front.
The two women twinkled their eyes and looked at Soso.
Soso looked back and forth and looked at the two of them.
“How was it?”
Soso was surprised at Chaewol’s question.
And after discovering a little playfulness in Chaewol’s eyes and expressions, she smiled bashfully.
For some reason, Soso’s skin seemed to glow.
“Of course.”
Dan-young confirmed that and nodded.
She didn’t know why, but every woman who slept with Byeoktaesan got prettier. Although there are some differences in degree.
Soso was the side with a lot of differences.
The skin was also smoother, and her features became clearer.
And she had a very comfortable atmosphere.
“I just saw you, but it’s this much… You might really stir things up later?”
Chaewol said so, shining her eyes.
Chaewol heard more rumors about Byeoktaesan than Danyoung and watched Byeoktaesan’s work at the brothel for a longer time.
Byeoktaesan and the women who he slept with all looked better.
However, they did not change the day after sleeping.
It changed gradually over time. Usually, it took about five days, and in some cases, it lasts up to three days and ten days.
The longer it took, the better they looked.
This was the case with Danyeong and Chaewol, and all the women who came to visit Byeoktaesan.
And how much it changes on the first day becomes a measure of the final change.
Based on that, when she saw Soso, she seemed to change for a long time. And she will be very beautiful.
‘Looking at what has changed now… Although the cute side seems to be much more emphasized.’
Chaewol asked with a gentle smile.
“Seeing that expression it must have been very good?”
Soso cleared up her thoughts for a moment, then slowly opened her mouth.
“I’m not sure what to say about this… It felt incredibly cozy and comfortable.”
“Cozy and comfortable?”
At those words, Dan-young and Chae-wol looked at each other and opened their eyes wide.
Wasn’t this different from themselves?
When the two of them slept with Byeoktaesan, they felt like they were soaked in a pleasure that could not be described in words, and then got back out.
So that was probably why they couldn’t hear anything.
Honestly, they were a little worried. Experience has shown that there will be a constant screaming moan that made it difficult for most people to fall asleep.
“What about your memories? Do you remember how you did it?”
Soso shook her head without strength.
“No. Unfortunately… … .”
It was the same with them.
Only feelings and moods remained, and no memories were left.
Danyoung suddenly felt strange.
All the people who have spent the night with Byeoktaesan have been the same.
Only the feeling of struggling with tremendous pleasure remained, and the memories disappeared.
But everyone took it really casually.
As if it were natural.
Even the people who were with him, not the party, were the same.
But, isn’t that by no means a natural or ordinary situation?
What is really curious even though this question arises is that the question is nothing, and this situation itself is taken for granted.
Even if a question arises, you quickly agree.
Like now.
“That’s a little disappointing. Really… I felt like I would never experience it again.”
At the word of Chaewol, Soso shook her head.
“No. I really liked it. It’s because it’s a feeling I’ve never felt since I was born. Maybe… I will never be able to experience this again, right?
Danyoung and Chaewol looked at Soso with mysterious eyes.
It felt different, but the result was the same.
And there was someone else who felt that novelty.
* * *
Byeoktaesan slowly embraced the spirit power gained through Soso.
Soso was a little different from the others.
When he burned the dirt off the spirits of the courtesans, the moaning of the spirit rang everywhere but that wasn’t the case with Soso.
Soso looked really comfortable throughout the burning of the spirit.
It’s as if someone is taking care of it.
She looked hurt sometimes, but it seemed that it was not because it hurt, but because it felt refreshing.
No one has ever shown this kind of reaction before.
In the past, as a joke, he told Soso that her soul was being stained with dirt, but that wasn’t just a joke.
In fact, Soso was a child with many pure aspects.
It was also clear that the soul was less grimy.
However, when he burned the spirits through the Spirit absorption skill, he accumulated much more spiritual power than he had imagined.
To some extent, it was more than when he pulled the spirit of the guy he caught at Hyanghwaru in the beginning.
It was not a spiritual power that has a mixture of spirits and was useless, but pure spiritual power.
It was better than any other spirits he had ever burned.
Byeoktaesan naturally turned Soso’s spiritual power to Gimaek therapy.
Then something strange happened.
His mind was calm and his body relaxed.
In the meantime, the energy that he had healed became more firmly established.
Byeoktaesan intuitively felt that today’s treatment would be a very important point.
Until now, if he had just treated it randomly, today it played a role in strengthening the foundation.
For example, in martial arts terms, it felt like he was only doing expert level martial arts until now where he was finally able to lay the foundation.
The sense of security that it brought was indescribable.
“Indeed… It’s a great martial art skill.”
The more he learned, the newer it became. He thought it was the end, but it was not the end, and when he thought it was the beginning, it was not the beginning.
Maybe he will get enlightenment that turned all of today’s work upside down.
But today’s work will help eventually.
Even though the Spirit Absorption he learned in the days of Cheonma were all overturned through the enlightenment he gained as a result of his death, as if the fact that he learned it was of great help.
Byeoktaesan calmly felt Soso’s spiritual power with his whole body.
A pleasant smile constantly hung around his mouth.
* * *
The exchange began in earnest.
The whole of Homu-ryeon was excited.
There were many reasons for holding the meeting.
First of all, the purpose of strengthening the exchange between the warriors belonging to Homu-ryeon step by step from childhood was the biggest reason.
Also, seeing each other and being stimulated was the foundation for development.
It also meant to open up opportunities for practical growth.
At this time, all the people of Homu-ryeon fully helped the next generation meeting wherever they could.
It was a time when it was easy to see adults responding to the questions of the next generation in many places in Homu-ryeon.
Whether it is a question of martial arts, a question about what is going on in the world, or a question about knowledge, questions, answers, and discussions took place everywhere.
They could even have a spar if the talk went well.
It was not long after Homu-ryeon was formed, and it was all because of this effort that it has grown to the point of being called a small Moorim League.
So, how precious would the time be to the next generation warriors attending this meeting?
They had to get as much as possible within a limited amount of time.
Yeon Ha-rin, who had to split her time like that, looked at the room of Byeoktaesan with a slightly sulky expression.
Today was the third morning since she arrived in Homu-ryun.
The first and second days each took a break, and today was the real start, but Byeoktaesan never thought of leaving the room from the second day.
Yeon Ha-rin didn’t dare to call for Byeoktaesan.
It was because he seemed to be facing a very important moment.
She really thought that way, how many times a person who hasn’t even mastered martial arts in the common sense would have to face such a moment.
She thought that way whenever she got close to the room of Byeoktaesan.
That was the same for everyone, not just Yeon Ha-rin.
It was the same even for Yoo Seo-yeon, who rolled up her arms and repeated her determination to resolve.
“I wanted to go together… … .”
After muttering under her breath, Yeon Ha-rin turned around and left the dorm.
As Yeon Ha-rin left the lodge, she saw someone approaching from far away.
The eyes of Yeon Ha-rin, who confirmed who he was, turned into the size of a flower lamp.
“Ryeonju-nim?”
Surprisingly, Ho Mu Ryeon-ju was approaching at a busy pace.
