Abolition of the Wicked - Chapter 85

Whenever Jang Mandok’s sword moved, Geom Woo-bin’s hair fell to the floor. However, he still had a lot of hair left, so he looked quite bulky. He was concerned about his hair kept falling out, so he just shaved it off, but his head was pretty, so it wasn’t bad to look at. 

 

“The death penalty indeed looks beautiful.” 

 

“Geom Woo-bin, I found out what it was. Hahaha!” 

 

“If it is long again, it will be as rich as it used to be.” 

 

The Blood Lion, who was about to leave the scene, came because he had to say goodbye to Woo-bin, but eventually saw him with his head shaved. Jeon Yeong Hong bowed his back and made eye level with Geom Woo-bin, who was sitting in his chair. “Hey! The side effects will definitely go away. You know?” 

 

At this, Geom Woo-bin laughed. It was the smile that made him feel comfortable, the first laugh he had ever heard in a long while. “Of course. But uh… Where are you going?”

 

Geom Woo-bin knew the answer just by looking at their atmosphere. “Yes. For the death penalty, just practice hard here. We will take care of the rest.” 

 

“But… The priests are working hard for me… Thank you very much. But I… Don’t sin because… I wish you wouldn’t.”

 

“It will not happen. We are not the Blood Lions we used to be.” 

 

At this, they took turns saying goodbye to Geom Woo-bin and left a message to Jang Mandok, wishing him good luck. Now it was really time to leave. 

 

“How is Oh Seonho?” 

 

Another ankle had been caught by the Hangzhou Incident. Do Pyeong-su then spoke nervously at Go Seo-bang’s question. “I’ll be back before the aging is over, so I just leave it as it is.” 

 

“Then we will move only the scammers to coincide with the opening of Oseongiru.” 

 

“You guys do it.” 

 

“By the way…” 

 

“What else?” 

 

“What’s wrong with Sabaek?” 

 

“You don’t know.” 

 

“Master. We also respect and like Sabaek.”

 

Their worries were so great that they could not even count the thoughts of the Hangzhou Incident. They had a right to know as much as his affection for Geom Woo-bin in the Hangzhou Incident. However, she didn’t want to waste that time talking about everything. 

 

“The death penalty is a bit uncomfortable. It’s a disease that can only be cured when martial arts are raised, so Geom Woo-bin will be practiced in the underground training room, and we’re on our way to get an elixir. We don’t know when he’ll come, but until we get here, you’ll have to take care of yourself. Can you do it?” 

 

“Are you bad at this?” Sehwa’s face was full of worry. 

 

“I won’t die, but it will be painful enough to die. So you have to make it better. We’ll take care of the death penalty, so you guys only pay attention to the Oseonjangwon and Oseongiru.” 

 

“Yes. I will handle it perfectly without worrying about Sabaek and Masters. So, the masters too, please cure the sickness of Sabaek-nim.” 

 

Nodding his head, the Blood Lion left the Wushen Manor and went their separate ways. It was quite different from finding a missing volcano. This time, he had a clear goal and a place to go, and there was a certainty of success. There was only one thing in common with Hwa Jeok-san, urgency. That desperation would surely make the side effects of Geom Woo-bin better.

* * * 

The ancient room was still undecided. Jeong Pyun-ho, who had gone to solve the Hangzhou business, came back with a poor breakdown. It was quite easy to twist a child’s wrist, but in the end, it was he who got defeated in just ten seconds. The problem was that he couldn’t accurately determine the opponent’s skills in that way, and Kwak Bong wasn’t even the best master of Oh Seon Jang-won. 

 

“Are you saying that the person who subdued Jeong Dang-ju in ten seconds is Oh Seon Jang-won’s mischief?” 

 

If those words were true at face value, the military power of Hangzhou Wushen could not even be guessed. This was because the Cheolbloods had the strength of a criminal and the caution of a rabbit, which allowed them to have a history of one hundred and twenty years. If one was to immerse their feet in the wrong way, the iron blood chamber could be in danger of extinction. 

 

“I escaped from Shaolin Temple and came to Zhejiang Province, where there is only one stronghold of the Dong clan. Even if he went to Chodadong, his power was revealed to some extent, so he could have fought if he wanted to fight in the first place. If you fight, you will have to walk through the entire Iron Blood Chamber, and if you step out, you will be disgraced. Disgrace, there is a chance to recover, but if you fail, you will simply be forgotten. I’m going to have to step out in a way that causes as little disgrace as possible.” 

 

He had been making such a decision by himself when he heard General Seo Il-pyo’s voice from outside. “Lord. A guest is from Hangzhou.” 

 

He thought he must have come from Wolhagiru to rush things, but he wasn’t. “It is said to be the general to go of the Oh Seon Jangwon.” 

 

“Oh Seon-won?” 

 

Now, the name alone gave the ancient room a surprise. “Take me to the reception room.” 

 

In the ancient room, which stood up, he saw the large Gamma hanging on the wall. The very thought of ‘Should I take that?’ told people that Oh Seon Manor was having a hard time. Do Pyeong-su, an elderly man in his mid-fifties with exceptionally small eyes, stood up and bowed his head. 

 

“I see the ark of the Iron Blood Room.” 

 

It was a proper greeting, not a rude gesture. The ancient room also bowed its head.

 

 “This is the ancient room of the ark.” 

 

“I’ve been hearing about the late Ark’s reputation for a long time, and it’s an honor to meet you here.” 

“It’s just a false name.” 

 

He always cursed them for being rude factions, but the two of them were doing just that. “The other day, there was a guest from Hangju-ro from the Cheolhyeolbang, and it seems that there was a misunderstanding.” 

 

“That’s it. He went to the Black Society, and he had never imagined that the famous Wushen manor would be helping the Black Society.” 

 

“It’s just one way to make Hangzhou a good place to live. That is why I would like to hear the opinion of the ark.” 

 

“About what?” 

 

“Are you going to keep holding hands with Jo Hwangse?” Jeong Pyun-ho, who had gone to Hangzhou, clearly did not say anything, but at Oh Seon Manor, he knew that the Cheolhyeolbang had been commissioned by Jo Hwangse. 

 

He had spoken up first, but it seemed rather ridiculous to say no. “It has already been received.” 

 

“Trades can be bitten at times. Or you could make a deal with the other party.”

 

“If it’s on the other side…?” 

 

“From your room’s point of view, wouldn’t it be much more comfortable to deal with Jo Hwangse than our Oseon Manor

 

“Jo Hwangse is a place that dominates the business district of Anhui, so it is not a good place to be an enemy.” 

 

“Then how about our Oseon Manor?”

 

The reason why ancient rooms were not willing to answer was because they didn’t really know anything. It was only known that the masters there were skilled at the brewery where they made sake liquor. Galmapyeong did not dare to inflate about Oseon Manor.

 

“Actually, I’m just a general, and the generals don’t even know about the work with the Cheolhyeolbang.” 

 

“You don’t know?” 

 

“It’s not a big deal for them to care about.” 

 

Now, Galmapyeong’s words completely disregarded the Iron Blood. The ancient room clenched his fists and Do Pyeong-su spoke up. “As you may have heard, it was the manor’s miscellaneous man who drove out the head of your room. Do your research and you’ll find out. And the four of us are just so shabby that we can’t even reach the heels of the lords.” 

 

They said that they were generals, so at least the military ranks were higher than the generals. ‘There are four such generals. I said one janitor or two. There is the Hangzhou Line.’ 

 

Suddenly, he felt a headache. Galmapyeong stood up without any notice. “It looks like everything has been done.” 

 

“Are you really done?” 

 

“Since I came to see you, it seems that the courtesies for the Cheolbyeolbang have been exhausted. I have left the necessary words as a letter in the ark’s room.” 

 

Correspondence to his room? Located in the deepest part of this place, where the security was strictest, was the bedroom of the ancient room. It was definitely not a place where anyone could just sneak in. “Then I will wait for a good answer.” 

 

He then sent a galmapyeong without knowing what a good answer was. In addition to this, the ancient room hurriedly went to his place. Damn it, there was an envelope on the bedside table! 

 

As he lifted the envelope with his name on it, goosebumps ran from his fingertips to his heels. Placing the envelope here was a warning that if you wanted to kill the ancient room, can be killed at any time. 

 

‘You touched the tiger’s nose hair!’

 * * *

“Welcome, sir.” Mao Liang warmly welcomed the coming Tao Ping-su. He also served the finest tea and put precious fruits on the table. 

 

“I don’t have time to eat this.” 

 

“Isn’t there a saying that the faster you go, the faster you go?” 

 

“Do you want to turn your neck?” 

 

“Tell me about your business.” Do Pyeong-su then threw an envelope and a bag of hermits on the table. 

 

“It is the location where the Mannyeon Hasuo and the Mannyeonseolsam are located. That’s a commission fee.” Mao Liang first took out a piece of paper from the envelope and checked the location and what was to be stolen. Such was a trick to earn more commissions.

 

“It’s Sichuan and Gamsuseong. There, the target to steal is Gwigokdokmun, which is as terrible as Sacheondangmun, and Gansuseong is the loser of Gansuseong, Go Taegung.” 

 

“I would like to visit it myself, but many people will die if I do so, so I should avoid that.” 

 

“You say Muyeonggwido is reluctant to kill?” Do Pyung-soo chuckled. “I’m reluctant, but that doesn’t mean I won’t kill them.”

 

The dark and meaningful laughter that then ensued made Mao Liang retreat a long way. “Can you steal it?” 

 

“I am not called Shinto for nothing. By the way….” 

 

Mao Liang measured the weight of the hermit in his pocket. “Three hundred nyang is too little.” 

 

“Where is the giving, are you dissatisfied?” 

 

“Humm! Of course it is, but you have to pay a reasonable amount for what you give.” 

 

Mao Liang, who was essential for Tao Ping-su, he had the belief that he would not kill him. “How much?” He had spent most of his money on rebuilding the collapsed building and raked up all the money from the Wushen Manor for three hundred nyang. 

 

“You have to give me seven hundred more…” 

 

“Hearing that is quite traumatic.” 

 

“Our business is originally a cash-butting…” 

 

“Mao Liang.” The low voice of Do Pyeong-su called Mao Liang into reality. For a brief moment, his belief that he would never die made him forget Do Pyeong-su’s real and scarier hidden personality.

 

“Radish… Of course, I had no intention of getting it right away. You just have to pay comfortably. Hehe. However, it will take at least a month for me to go to Gansuseong and Sacheon. maybe at that time Do you have any work to do?” 

 

If it took too long, there was nothing to do other than go back to Oseon Manor and look after Geom Woo-bin. 

 

“No.”

 

“So, how about doing a pastime?” 

 

“Aren’t you trying to trick me?” 

 

“Hey! Even if I have nine lives, I would not dare to make a fool’s errand toward the eternal ghost.” 

“What is your pastime?” 

 

“The meeting is said to be looking for someone to take on the quest.” 

 

“You don’t even know shit flies?” 

 

“Because my job is a job, it’s convenient in many ways to be friends with Mantonghoe. Hehe. I don’t know the details, so why don’t you go to the rally first?” 

 

There wasn’t much to do, so it wasn’t too bad to solve the quest for the rally while Mao Liang finished his work. He wasn’t desperate, but he was a walker who started to realize that he still needed money to live.

 

“The deadline is one month. If you are late, you will lose one finger a day.” 

 

“Ah… No, two months…” 

 

“One month.” 

 

“Yes. I will definitely steal it and come back, sir.” Do Pyeong-su ran towards the Mantonghoe on that road. He didn’t know what the request was, but he thought it wouldn’t be difficult to solve. 

 

‘No, maybe it really can get tricky down the road.’
