Chronicles Of The Martial God’s Return

Chapter 74

Episode 74

It was about seven days later that Dan Woo-hyeon entered Hancheon. I urged him to go as fast as he could, and when his horse fell, he bought a new horse and ran with it.

After repeating this a few times, the distance shortened considerably and I was able to arrive quickly.

Of course, the shape is not what it sounds like.

Kwon Moo-jin had a tired expression on his face.

I ran day and night and couldn’t even eat properly.

It’s not that I don’t know that I want to find my treasure and go back as soon as possible, but I felt like it was too much to do.

I looked at Dan Woo-hyeon, breaking out in a cold sweat.

He was already ahead of me.

‘Aren’t you tired?…’

Kwon Moo-jin is confident in his physical strength.

Since I was young, I have trained myself by putting in more effort than others, and it is still the same now. No, after coming to the manor, I increased the amount and worked on maintaining my physical strength.

Still, he couldn’t reach Dan Woo-hyeon.

“This is a place called Agar.”

“Huh… Hah… That’s right.” Wiping away the cold sweat, I finally

opened my mouth. It is a stark contrast to the relaxed Dan Woo-hyeon.

I thought it was quite surprising that I didn’t collapse right away. However, Dan Woo-hyeon was looking around as if he had no interest in Kwon Moo-jin.

He looked around and took out the map from his pocket and looked at it.

It’s definitely pointing somewhere.

“The scenery has changed somewhat, but I think this is the right place.”

“Well… that’s… fortunate.” You don’t have to move to another place.

Kwon Moo-jin smiled awkwardly and exclaimed in delight. If I were told to move further from here, I felt like I would faint.

“But it’s big. “It’s harder than I thought… I don’t know where I am after standing here like this.”

First of all, the terrain is similar.

No, there is no doubt that somewhere in this agar lies the treasure of a man named Geumwangsu. However, the map is drawn quite complicatedly and it is impossible to know where to aim and go.

What Dan Woo-hyeon is holding in his hand right now is a simple map.

There wasn’t even a trace indicating a specific location.

Since I knew this fact, I tried hard to decipher it before coming here, but I still haven’t been able to find it.

The guy who drew this map seemed to have an extraordinary sense of humor.

“huh?”

Dan Woo-hyeon, who had been staring intently for a while, lifted the map above his head as if he had discovered something. As the sun shone brightly and the light penetrated the map, I realized that there was light coloring in one place.

“I guess this is the place.”

“Did you have a clue?”

“If you lift it up like this, the color is different only here.”

Kwon Moo-jin quietly looked up at the map.

Because the colors were so faintly different, it was very difficult to see them unless you looked closely. Dan Woo-hyeon’s eyes to find this are also unbelievably good. He truly is not like a human being.

“Isn’t it quite far to the northwest?”

“Right.”

Dan Woo-hyeon nodded and looked away.

The northwest?

The place on the map definitely points to that place. However, that place is not this Agar village, but a large mountain. Looking at the north, south, east, west, and distance, there was no doubt that it was pointing to that mountain.

It’s quite far.

Even if I went on horseback, it would take about an hour and a half.

Dan Woo-hyeon scratched his head and looked at Kwon Moo-jin.

I stared at his expression, which looked like he was going to collapse from exhaustion at any moment, and nodded slightly as if he was thinking of something.

“It looks like you’re still okay. egg plant.”

“…Yeah well… let’s go.”

Kwon Moo-jin nodded with a nervous expression.

My wish for some rest was cruelly broken.

Just like that, the two people entered Hancheon and moved toward the large mountain visible to the northwest. Even though we are moving on horseback, the distance is so long that it does not feel like it is easily narrowed down.

Nevertheless, in less than two hours since they started moving steadily, the two were able to reach the mountain that was their destination.

When Dan Woo-hyeon arrived there, he stopped his horse and looked at the map.

Looking at the location on the map, it seems like there is something inside the mountain. It seemed like it would not be easy to even climb up there because it was quite a rough terrain, but Dan Woo-hyeon moved without paying any attention.

The wealth of hundreds of millions of dollars is urging him on.

I started climbing up the winding mountain road.

“Huh… Hah… Do I have to go any further?”

“I think we need to go up a little higher. “Is this really something that is not hidden in an easy place?”

“Huh… Hah… That… Geumwangsui ni da… Of course.” Kwon Moo-jin followed behind, shedding a cold sweat. I felt like I was training for a year just by following Dan Woo-hyeon, who was running ahead in his desire to find his wealth as quickly as possible.

I feel like I followed him for no reason.

If I had known this would happen, I would have sent Samtae.

It’s too late to regret it now, but Kwon Moo-jin’s feelings are not as true. The last time the gentleman did something, he didn’t do this…

It’s all because of that guy’s gold and silver treasures

.

I gritted my teeth and moved along the mountain path for a while.

Then, at some point, Dan Woo-hyeon suddenly stopped.

I wanted to know something, so I raised my head and saw a manor that was half-destroyed. The fence was already not performing its role properly, and most of the visible buildings were collapsed and torn down.

Spiders have built nests everywhere, and even rats and snakes are crawling everywhere.

There is no way for people to survive in a place like this.

“W… are you here?”

“Yes… That’s true, but…”

Dan Woo-hyeon, who was looking at the manor and the map alternately, frowned. It’s clear that the strange manor in front of me is where the map is pointing, but why can I hear a human voice inside?

“Hahaha! Drink up!”

“The harvest is good today!”

The voices heard beyond the fence are not only those of men. The women’s short voices were also mixed in, giving us a rough idea of what was going on there.

“Are you… bandits?”

“Bandit… It’s Iroh.” If

an abandoned manor

deep in the mountains

is an abandoned manor in a place so rough that people don’t come and go, it’s likely that bandits will settle in. There is no need to build a mountain house, and you can roughly use what you have.

Thanks to this, Dan Woo-hyeon’s mood seems to have been slightly twisted.

I was anxious that they might have taken my treasure.

Dan Woo-hyeon slowly entered the manor. The sound of the footsteps going

inside

was drowned out by the bandits’ laughter and it seemed like no one could hear them. However, the moment I crossed the collapsed wall and entered, all eyes were on me.

Soon, he threw a punch at the head of a stubborn bandit.

Bye!

“Kaaak!”

“Who… who?! “Wow!”

“what? “Kwaaak!”

Suddenly, a scream rang out in a place filled with laughter. The moment he crossed the fence and went inside, Dan Woo-hyeon threw out his fist.

So much so that even Kwon Moo-jin, who was watching, was dumbfounded.

At least who is it! Or what kind of guy are you! I’ll give you at least some of it.

Quadadadang-!

In an instant, as many as twenty living enemies flew in all directions. Rolling around on the floor, being thrown into a manor, unable to even scream properly, you would not even have been able to recognize that a person had fallen without seeing it with your own eyes.

What remains are half-naked women.

They trembled with thoughtful expressions.

However, Dan Woo-hyeon’s interest is not women.

He quietly looked at the fallen bandits and dragged the one with the greatest energy among them. Blood was dripping down from his blood-covered face, but there was no sympathy on Dan Woo-hyeon’s face as he grabbed his hair.

On the contrary, Kwon Moo-jin, who was looking at him, broke into a cold sweat at the sight of that life

. “I’m not asking.”

“Yes, yes!”

“How long have you been settling here?”

“It’s been… about a year or so.”

The bandit leader trembled and answered.

Occasionally, martial arts masters who attack wild vegetables appear. Most of them were gods who had just emerged from the martial arts world, so although they were strong, they could not subdue more than twenty people in such a short period of time.

In that case, the person in front of you is an even greater expert.

If you say something wrong, you will be punished.

“Was there any sign of someone living there when you guys came here?”

“Uh… there wasn’t…”

“Have you ever found anything here?” “Well… that’s not there either.”

Dan Woo-hyeon quietly looked into the eyes of the leader. The guy’s eyes looked full of horror and fear. Although his eyes were shaking slightly, it never seemed like he was lying.

“go away.”

“Thank you Daehyup! Thank you Daehyup!”

The leader quietly stood up from his seat and began to rush out, taking care of his fallen comrades. Because I had no idea what would happen if I stayed here any longer.

Dan Woo-hyeon, who was watching them disappear one by one, soon looked at the woman with eyes that had lost interest. The women who made eye contact flinched in surprise.

“You guys go too.”

With that one word, the women began to gather their clothes and go down the mountain. If I went down like this, the chances of being caught by the bandits would be one of a kind, but it was a hundred times better than being with that man who was threatening more than 20 bandits in one go in front of my eyes.

“Aren’t you going to kill me?”

Kwon Moo-jin felt puzzled.

I don’t know about the other bandits, but they should have killed the leader. As soon as we leave this place, they will gather again at the head.

At that time, Dan Woo-hyeon, smiling, opened his mouth.

“If I had intended to kill him, I would have killed him without leaving anything behind. Rather, look around. “There is a clue somewhere.”

“Ah… I understand.”

Kwon Moo-jin nodded and began to search the manor. Actually, does he have any wealth here? That was my first thought.

It is said that this is where the bandits stayed for a year.

I realized that the probability of finding this treasure itself was slim, as there was a possibility that someone among them had already discovered it and hidden it.

‘Isn’t this just a bunch of trouble?’

Kwon Moo-jin broke into a cold sweat. We came quite a distance from Honam to Hubuk. I don’t even know about Dan Woo-hyeon, but Kwon Moo-jin is still going through a crazy hard time.

If you don’t get something, your anger won’t go away.

If I don’t find anything here, I’ll search the entire central plain to catch the golden king and grind his hair down.

At that time, I heard Dan Woo-hyeon’s voice.

“There you are.”

“yes!? “Did you find it!”

Kwon Moo-jin opened his eyes wide and turned his head at the sudden words. The place where Danwoohyeon is located is the pond in the center of the manor.

There was no water there, whether it had been made or had dried up, and in the center of the deeply dug pond, there was a stone statue in the shape of a strange lion.

“Isn’t it just… a stone statue?”

“It’s strange that there is a stone statue in a place like this. What’s more, when you knock it on, it seems empty inside. “I was thinking about breaking it, but something strange happened, so I put my hand in my mouth and found something like this.” Dan Woo-hyeon took out something. It is a map made of leather. It was very different from the paper that Dan Woo-hyeon had now. It looked quite old and it felt like a map depicting the location of treasure.

Kwon Moo-jin hurriedly approached with his exhausted body.

It seemed like something was finally starting to appear.

“Uh… how do you feel? Is that really the map where the Golden King Beast’s treasure is located?”

“I’m not sure about that, but… I’m sure it marked something.”

Dan Woo-hyeon unfolded the map and showed it to him. Unlike before, something was seen being painted with a brush about a dozen miles west near the manor.

“Lord… Master… Is this… …?”

Dan Woo-hyeon grinned while looking at it.

I was finally getting closer to what I wanted.
