Episode 379
The person who broke the peaceful atmosphere was none other than Hong Won-chang. I don’t know why I came to the business, but as I was passing through the street, I saw Dan Woo-hyeon and ran over in a hurry. Running as fast as he could, he stopped in front of Dan Woo-hyeon and at the same time let out a breath that he couldn’t hold back.
“Huh huh…” “Ah…”
Dan Woo-hyeon looked at Hong Won-chang’s face without saying a word. I couldn’t feel any emotion on his face, but it felt like it was putting more pressure on the other person.
On the other hand, Dan So-mi frowned. In general, when Hong Won-chang looks like this.
“It’s an incident!”
This is because he often brings things to Dan Woo-hyeon that he has not been able to solve.
Dan Woo-hyeon looked at him with a puzzled expression.
If it’s an incident, it’s an incident. Why are you talking about it to yourself? As I looked at him with an incomprehensible expression, Hong Won-chang slowly turned his head with an awkward look on his face.
“That… That’s it, my lord….”
“Do you know him?” Dan Woo-hyeon glanced at Dan So-mi and asked. This clearly means that they will pretend not to know Hong Won-chang.
Dansomi nodded, swallowed a moan for a moment, and then opened her mouth.
“no. “This is my first time meeting you.”
” Right.”
“oh my! Why are you doing this, really! “We’re in real trouble!”
Looking at the two people pretending not to notice, Hong Won-chang looked like he was about to burst into tears at any moment.
Out of urgency, I unconsciously tried to grab Dan Woo-hyeon’s collar, but the collar slipped away as if it had will, avoiding Hong Won-chang’s hand.
Heung Won-chang sat down in frustration.
“Huh….” “Ah….”
I burst into tears, not like an adult.
Unlike other times, this time he clung to Dan Woo-hyeon like crazy and didn’t want to let go, perhaps because it was a big deal.
“please! Please help! If this continues, I will die!”
“That’s ridiculous.”
“…It’s a sight I want to show Jinrang too.”
Dan So-mi shook her head.
My father is Hong Jin-rang, whom I think is the most wonderful person in the world and solves any problem with ease.
What would you say if you showed a child like this?
I became very curious.
“Because people are watching, it would be better to move somewhere first.” Only then did Hong Won-chang come to his senses and look around.
Not only those who were watching the mask dance, but even people passing by were watching Hong Won-chang with expressions as if they were wondering what was going on.
Hong Won-chang smiled awkwardly and broke into a cold sweat at that gaze.
I sat down at Daru, which is quite far from downtown Jangsa.
Expensive tea and teapots filled the table, and Dansomi looked happy as she picked them up and ate them with excitement.
But, on the other hand, Heung Won-chang could not do that.
The sight of him constantly breaking out in a cold sweat was really not good to see. It seemed clear that something had happened, but looking at it, it didn’t seem like something that could be easily solved.
Dan Woo-hyeon asked while taking a sip of tea.
“So what happened?”
“That’s it…
Do you know someone called the Golden Lion?”
“Golden Lion?”
Dan Woo-hyeon shook his head as if he didn’t know. Even if someone’s nickname was mentioned, it was nothing more than an unfamiliar thing to Dan Woo-hyeon, who did not know such people.
At that time, Dansomi, who was eating a metallurgy meal, opened her mouth.
“Oh, I know. “He must be a very bad person, right?”
“Uh… yes, I know you well.”
“Jinrang once told me this. The beard on his face
looks like a lion’s mane…”
“That’s right… that’s the kind of person he is.”
Hong Won-chang smiled awkwardly, haha.
The Golden Lion is a very famous person. Although he has now been captured and his name has disappeared, he once occupied a place in the Five Emperors, and when he was captured, Jeokmu-seong gave him a new name.
That was twenty years ago, so it wouldn’t be strange if it was a bit old.
“So what about that guy called the Golden Lion?”
“He is also famous for amassing enormous wealth. “To the extent that the word ‘gold’ is added to the title.”
Dan Woo-hyeon looked at Hong Wenchang with a sour expression.
I wanted someone to explain a little bit about what relevance such stories have right now, whether they become rich or not, and why the golden lion pops up in the big things Hong Won-chang talks about.
Did you notice Dan Woo-hyeon’s gaze? Hong Wenchang quickly lowered his head.
“Anyway, that golden lion committed a serious crime against the imperial family twenty years ago and ran away. He robbed the imperial treasury and ran away with everything that could be used to make money.”
“What a funny guy. “He robbed the imperial family because he had nowhere else to rob…”
“He must have been confident because he had that level of skill. However, he was soon caught and eventually a wanted arrest order was issued. “My classmates and even the Geumuiwi came forward, and even martial arts experts joined in, and we eventually succeeded in capturing him.”
Dan Woo-hyeon burst out laughing.
When I heard that the man called the Five Emperors of the World not only robbed the royal family but was even caught, I couldn’t help but laugh.
“The person who captured the golden lion is Mr. Sadohak.”
“okay?”
“Yes, just in case you don’t know… they say he was captured after a fierce battle that lasted almost an hour.”
Hong Won-chang is also just a rumor he heard. The fierce battle between the Golden Lion and the Demon Emperor Sadohak was a legendary story that still enthralls people.
Those who watched at the time commented that it was a fight like a dream.
“It’s not the martial arts sect, it’s the Demonic Cult… That’s interesting too.”
“At that time, the imperial family was trying to push out the Demonic Cult, and as a condition of defeating it, they ordered us to capture the golden lion. “Your Majesty.”
“So what happened to him?” In the end, Dan Woo-hyeon asked crookedly.
The introduction is too long without even going into the main topic. When I told him about the identity of the guy called Golden Lion, I didn’t feel particularly excited.
It’s an interesting story, but isn’t it just about having a lot of money?
However, if he was caught too, there was no way he would have that money left, so there was nothing to interest Dan Woo-hyeon.
“The… golden lion… escaped prison after twenty years!”
“Didn’t you break the dantian?”
“I heard that after the fight with the old man, he was unable to use his inner strength at all. So, wasn’t it possible to trap him?”
Hong Won-chang looked at me as if asking why I was asking such an obvious question. As Danwoo-hyeon, embarrassed by those creeping eyes, snorted, Hong Won-chang’s gaze subtly sank.
“So what does that have to do with the fact that he regained his strength and escaped from prison?”
“That… that is…” Hong Won-chang swallowed his dry saliva. His face was pale, as if he still couldn’t forget what happened at that time.
“Even though he was tortured for twenty years, he did not reveal the place where the treasure was hidden, but it is said that he recently died while being tortured.”
“I heard you just escaped from prison?”
Dan So-mi looked at Hong Wen-chang with a shocked expression. I frowned as I couldn’t understand whether the person who had escaped from prison was dead or whether it was a fart or something.
Dan So-mi was becoming more and more like Dan Woo-hyeon.
“You pretended to be dead. “Are you going to eat your own food?”
“Well… that’s right. Afterwards, he suppressed all those who tried to move the body and disappeared.”
“So an order was given to catch him…?”
“Well… that’s right! And indeed, Lord! “I can’t believe you grasped the situation right away.”
“I became flattered. But… he’s an interesting guy.”
After losing his power, he endured all kinds of torture for twenty years. In that situation, he regained his strength and eventually succeeded in escaping prison, so it seemed like there couldn’t be a more amazing person than this. A little blush appeared.
The fact that the treasure has not yet been taken away?
“Wow! “Then that person must have a lot of money.”
“Well… I guess so.”
Dansomi also asked with bright eyes.
He asked with such innocent eyes that Hong Won-chang broke into a cold sweat without even realizing it. Even though it’s not really a question of money or anything like that.
“But why are you looking for that guy in the business?”
“That’s because the last place he was caught was in Honam.”
At that one word, Dansomi opened her eyes wide.
Immediately, he chewed his food and smiled brightly.
“There is a lot of work in Honam. I think all the hidden mysteries of Jungwon are hidden in Honam. Yes?”
When I asked Dan Woo-hyeon for consent, Dan Woo-hyeon had to nod without realizing it.
Dan Woo-hyeon also had the same thought.
* * *
Jang Sam-tae and Sadohak, who were returning to Honam, were using deserted roads and mountain paths, perhaps to avoid being detected by the Hyeolcheon group.
Therefore, it had to be somewhat slow, which was not suited to Apostolic Studies or the character of Jang Sam-tae.
“Can’t we just go for it? “What are they afraid of, hiding like this?”
“It’s not scary. “It’s just annoying.”
Apostolate also had the same thought. However, considering the number of opponents, it is not a very good option. Also, I had no desire to tell them the route.
This is because it is not a very good feeling to camp out everywhere you go and kill everyone who blocks your way before moving on.
This was also the reason why Jang Sam-tae’s words full of complaints were not heard.
“Oh, come to think of it. “I’ve been curious about something for a long time.”
“What is that?”
“You know what? “A story passed down as a legend.”
“Only the head of the family should hear such things.”
“No, there’s more to it than that, right? “The story of the old man and the golden lion.”
“iced coffee.”
Sadohak nodded as if he finally understood. If it weren’t for the conditions with the imperial family at the time, I wouldn’t even have any intention of competing with that guy.
If he hadn’t become like that, the enemy would never have become Ohwang.
“Is that person really that amazing?”
“Martial arts are also great. “His personality is so crazy that he is worthy of being called a golden lion.”
“How does it compare to Samgwang?”
“They are both crazy.”
Apostolate made an impression.
His face was still vivid in my mind.
In particular, the words he said during the intense fight came to mind one after another.
9.5//“How about just this? “Just let me go!”
“no? Let’s put it at 500,000 nyang. Oh my, it’s hard…”
“Okay, okay. Just cut it into one million nyang! At this level, neither you nor I are losing money, right? “Look at me, you bastard.”// Apostle Hak let out a laugh at the words that lingered in his ears. Did you think you could bribe your opponent with money during a fierce battle where life and death are at stake?
Even the victory was held by Sadohak.
To say something like that in a situation where you desperately need to run away or win is a mockery of apostolic studies.
‘It wasn’t a situation that could be solved with money in the first place, right?’
Apostolate thought so. Where in the world would it be acceptable to recommend a solution with money when each other’s lives are at stake?
“Ah…”
“Why are you doing that?”
“There you are.”
” yes?”
“No, it’s nothing.”
Sadohak thought of one person for a moment and then laughed awkwardly. There was no need to worry because the two people would never actually meet.
Moreover, isn’t there someone you would rather not meet?
‘But it’s not necessarily impossible. Because I didn’t break the Danjeon in the first place…’
But that was already twenty years ago.
If you haven’t been able to solve it by now, there is no hope for the future.
