Just as Do Pyeong-su, the other two were also desperate. They must have the intention to kill the blood-lions.

Only then it would be justifiable to kill the three wicked ones of Jiangxi.

Of course, that rule wasn’t set by the blood-lions.

The blood-lions were people who can pull out one’s eyeballs just by glaring at them. However, the moment they served Geom Woo-bin as their abolition everything changed.

Their hearts changed and the rules they lived by changed. It was no longer acceptable to kill someone who was not a threat and who had no intention to kill.

That was the promise they made with Geom Woo-bin.

So, the blood-lions made all sorts of threats and conciliation to get their confessions from the three wicked ones of Jiangxi that they had the intention to kill, and the three wicked ones of Jiangxi pleaded their innocence with an iron will.

Yeon Geum-hong who was arguing for about an hour growled in a lower voice.

“I’m going to catch the Geisha called Se-hwa who made the request. If anything other than you comes out of her mouth, then the pain of death will not be over by today.”

Despite the threat, the three wicked ones of Jiangxi did not concede their original point.

A bad feeling ran down their spine.

“I’m going to catch the woman called Se-hwa, so, both of you keep an eye on them.”

After making a sound at the three wicked ones of Jiangxi who were lying flat on the ground, Yeon Geum-hong left the place.

Do Pyeong-su got up from his seat after confirming Yeon Geum-hong had moved away.

“I suddenly need to pee. I can’t embarrassingly pee in front of these kids, so, I’ll have to go a little far and release it.”

Do Pyeong-su patted Jang Man-dok’s side as he was seated and nodded at him. Only then, Jang Man-dok who confirmed Do Pyeong-su’s intention suddenly stood up and followed him.

After confirming that the two of them disappeared into the woods, the three wicked ones of Jiangxi turned their heads fiercely.

-It seems like they’ve gone too far, doesn’t it?

-Do you mean we should run away?

-It’s an opportunity, don’t you think so?

-Didn’t you hear the tone Minachal left us with while she was departing?

Oh Tong-su’s words shattered the will of the three wicked ones of Jiangxi to escape.

-They surely said they’re going to pee. If you think of it as an opportunity you will be dead.

They couldn’t help but believe in the words that were just predicted.

After some time, Do Pyeong-su returned and shouted at the three wicked ones of Jiangxi.

“We were away for a long time, why haven’t you escaped! These guys who don’t even have the guts! Get rid of all the useless anxiety!”

“Mi-, Minachal said that the two of you are going to pee…. so, since she said that we will be dead if we escape during that time….”

Minachal. It was the nickname of Yeon Geum-hong that’s being heard after a long time.

“Anyway, what does that old woman have to do with breaking off the fortune box. If the three of us can’t have it she should at least allow two people to have it. It’s like the traitor old woman.”

It was only after an hour that the traitor old woman returned carrying Se-hwa under her arms. Se-hwa who rolled on the ground let out a sharp scream, but no one paid attention to it.

“You don’t look good, do you?”.

At Do Pyeong-su’s question, Yeon Geum-hong said staring at Se-hwa and the three wicked ones of Jiangxi.

“Looks like those fellows got their story straight.”

“Then…. can’t we kill them?”

“We cannot break the promise we made to the abolition.”

“It’s-, it’s been a while since we last had this opportunity. Nowadays, I’m having nightmares because of withdrawal symptoms!”

“That’s because you’ve sinned a lot.”

“What do we do? Do we seriously have to save those guys like this?”

Hope was seen on four of their faces who were lying on their stomachs.

“And. if you save them? Those guys would eagerly go and spread the rumor all over the place that the blood-lions are in Hangzhou.”

“We should never be…!”

“Keep your mouth shut!”

Following Yeon Geum-hong’s scream, Do Pyeong-su’s voice was heard.

“It has nothing to do with us, but the abolition could be in danger because of us. Should we just kill them?”

Annihilation is the cleanest way.

However, the problem that they have to deceive Geom Woo-bin remained.

If Geom Woo-bin finds out that they killed four people because they were afraid Geom Woo-bin would be in danger, it was definite that he’d feel extremely guilty about what they did.

And then, he will work himself harder than he does now.

Such a thing should never happen.

“Isn’t there anything else other than annihilation?”

When faced with a difficult problem, it was Yeon Geum-hong and Seo Seok-san who always came up with good ideas.

Seo Seok-san is not here, so Do Pyeong-su and Jang Man-dok only had hopes on Yeon Geum-hong.

“Darn! I don’t know. We’ve never made a choice other than killing.” Said Yeon Geum-hong with a serious expression.”

As the silence grew longer, Oh Tong-su slowly raised his head.

“Umm….”

“Be quiet!”

Yeon Geum-hong who screeched and thrust Oh Tong-su’s face back onto the ground said.

“First of all, let’s solve it one by one. Now the biggest problem is that we can’t annihilate.”

“Exactly. If the abolition finds out we’ll be in trouble.”

“This problem occurred because you revealed our identity!”

“Who knew we had to save those guys….”

“For now, let’s pull out their tongues so that they can’t go and tell it out anywhere.”

At Yeon Geum-hong’s words, the four of their faces were bleached white.

“Even if we pull out their tongues, they have hands which they can write with.”

“Then we’ll have to chop off their hands too.”

“I can put a brush on my toes. Of course, but there are not many words that I can write.”

“Let’s just chop off their legs too.”

In a few of their words, they cut off the tongues and limbs of the three wicked ones of Jiangxi and Se-hwa. Pulling out the tongues and amputating the limbs is like living but not living.

“We will never reveal that the blood-lions are in Hangzhou!”

The voice of Yeon Geum-hong that replied to their pleadings was cold.

“The most unbelievable thing in the world is a person’s three-inch-long tongue.”

The three wicked ones of Jiangxi who were in fear were trembling, and Se-hwa who was shaking along with them was terrified and stood up, indignantly.

“Fuck! I can write by holding a brush in my asshole, try stopping my asshole!”

Geom Woo-bin who came out stretching stopped moving.

He was familiar with the sight of someone sweeping the yard, but it was the first time that ‘someone’ was not one among the priests.

“Who are you?”

A man above fifty years old or so with a bushy-beard was also staring at Geom Woo-bin blankly.

At that time, the familiar voice of Do Pyeong-su was heard.

“Look at how stiff your waist is. Should I break about two vertebrae and make it softer?”

In an instance, an obsequious smile spread across the man’s face, and he bent his waist at a right angle.

“Big master! Did you cough? Hehe!”

“Big master? Priest, Do Pyeong-su, who’s this person?”

“The work at the brewery has been a bit hectic, so I hired a few workers to do the chores.”

At that time, someone came rushing and handed Geom Woo-bin a bowl.

“Hahaha! Big master, a bowl of water after cough is a shortcut to health. Drink it up!”

Geom Woo-bin drank the water the woman offered unaware of himself.

“Don’t give the abolition a nasty smell, and get away from him.”

The woman who was startled by the words of Yeon Geum-hong quickly stepped aside. As for Geom Woo-bin, he was in a hectic situation.

So as the workers who appeared suddenly, and the blood-lion’s attitude towards them was also cold.

“Priestess Yeon Geum-hong, are you hiring those people as workers for real?”

“There was no other way.”

She said so.

They were blood-lions who had dozens and hundreds of skills, but they did not have the skills to block a human’s excretion hole. So, there was no other choice the blood-lions could make.

Keeping an eye on and monitoring them.

It’s the only way other than killing. Of course, there was something to think of.

They will make them try to escape by rolling them hard. Then, they can gallantly grab hold of them and kill them.

Revealing the whereabouts of the blood-lions is an act of putting them in danger, so, killing them doesn’t mean breaking the promise they made to Geom Woo-bin.

Just in case, she got a written pledge that they would submit to death if they reveal the identity of the blood-lions.

There was also a special agreement with letters that were as small as sesame seeds.

-The moment the identity of the blood-lions is revealed, Se-hwa and the three wicked ones of Jiangxi die.

Even if the four of them don’t reveal it, it will be effective. It’s somewhat an unjustifiable provision, but in Moorim, being powerless is a sin.

Yeon Geum-hong told Geom Woo-bin the story about the three wicked ones of Jiangxi and the others. On hearing that, Geom Woo-bin scratched his head with a troubled expression on his face.

“Anyway, you did a good job not killing them. You had no murderous intention, but if you would’ve killed them I would’ve been disappointed in you priests.”

“We are people who always follow the intention of the abolition.”

Of course, she never said about the plot in her mind.

Thud!

Ko Seo-bang sat down with a plonk holding his head in the pain of his brain cracking.

“You punk! There is no enough fuel. Don’t you have to fill it up before you collapse?”

The world-class three wicked ones of Jiangxi were being beaten up on the head because of fuel. However, the person who was beating his head up was Cheon Eum-Gwi. He was not an opponent to whom he could utter a word even if he beats his balls.

“I’ll-, I’ll be back right away.”

“If you cross the mountain over there, there are many sturdy trees, so go over there. Come back within an hour.”

“Sorry? Is it that far?”

“That’s why you need to get out of here. Take someone for help. You can go very far. Instead, you will be dead if you’re late. So, if you think you’ll be late, run away. Hehehe….”

The three wicked ones of Jiangxi carried the Jige (Korean Farming Tool) and rushed.

The three people who had been hiding and watching gathered around Seo Seok-san.

“They might run away, right?”

At Do Pyeong-su’s words, Yeon Geum-hong wore a suspicious expression.

“I’m not sure, as reason doesn’t always rule emotions.”

“What kind of strange nonsense is that?”

“They can’t even dare to run away as they’re scared of us.”

“Should we place a bet?”

“What kind of a bet?”

“The person who wins gets to feel the touch.”

“Do I look like a fool? If they don’t run away, even if I win I won’t be able to feel the touch!” Bristled Yeon Geum-hong.

“Aha! Your hair is long but why are you thinking so short? Today is not the only day, is it? They’re supposed to run away someday. Don’t you think so?”

There was an evil smile on the corner of Yeon Geum-hong’s lips as well.

“I know, right. If we don’t make those little fellows run away, we are not blood-lions. Hahaha!”

They returned.

Yeon Geum-hong praised them by stroking their cheeks, but the three wicked ones of Jiangxi couldn’t avoid Do Pyeong-su’s severe scolding.

“If you get caught to me using Neigong I will destroy your Dantian, know that well!”

The three wicked ones of Jiangxi had to turn mountainous logs into firewood using only the strength of their entire bodies.

Although they were given a time limit of an hour, they didn’t have time to breathe.

‘I should’ve just run away!’

They promised to run away at all costs next time, but eventually, they couldn’t fulfill it. The trap in the name Blood-lion was so scary to the extent even their free will was tied up.

The three wicked ones of Jiangxi weren’t the only ones to be craved for going beyond human limits.

“You got it wrong. Is that what you call a performance? You said that you were the most popular Geisha in Jiangxi province, didn’t you? Scoff! With a performance like that? Do it again.”

Her fingers were stiff and her tips were swollen, so she was bleeding. But, Seo Seok-san did not give Se-hwa a break from playing.

As she was playing continuously for six hours, her entire body was twisted along with the pain in her fingers.

“I-, I need to urina-….”

“Just release it. Uh-huh! Stop playing. Do you want me to make you limp?”

Seo Seok-san seemed to be able to do that right away.

So, she couldn’t even think of shaking off indignantly and standing up.

Seo Seok-san’s voice could be heard softly amid the messy performances.

“If you can’t stand it, run away.”

So Gi-cheon’s fist was thrust into a guy’s stomach.

Punch!

Behind the guy who collapsed with a sound, another person threw a punch towards So Gi-cheon.

“This beggar bastard!”

So Gi-cheon who twisted his upper body lightly to avoid the fist kicked hard the guy’s shin.

The guy who collapsed with a thud stood up hurriedly and collapsed again holding his shin that was hit.

So Gi-cheon’s voice was heard at the back of the guys who had collapsed.

“It is good to mistreat. And, it is good to despise as well. Since a beggar is always treated in such a manner. But, you shouldn’t have broken the begging bowl. That’s also twice each.”

The guys were the ones from the Budokan who beat So Gi-cheon and broke his begging bowl two years ago.

The guys grew bigger and stronger than they did back then, but So Gi-cheon’s growth was much faster.

As promised, No Dae-sul dropped in from time to time to teach martial arts, and So Gi-cheon devoted all his day to martial arts training, except for the time he spends begging.

The difference between those who wanted to do body training and those who risk their lives could only be so stark.

“The beggar punk has gone crazy to death, I see. How dare you lay your finger on our disciples of the Budokan!”

So Gi-cheon turned his head at the voice that was heard.

It was Lee Pil-ryeong, a guy in his mid-thirties whose eyebrows were raised with an unusually large nose.

As the head of Hangzhou’s Budokan, he was a man where even the Hangzhou’s triad cannot lay a finger on him. Not only was he that strong, but his temper was so cruel that even the triad shook hands.

“Those fellows broke my begging bowl first.”

“Is that so? My students made a mistake, I see. They should’ve crushed your skull instead of the begging bowl.

“Ma-…. master.”

“You got beaten by a beggar and disgraced the name of our Hangzhou Budokan. Be prepared. And….”

Lee Pil-ryeong glanced at So Gi-cheon.

“From today onwards, I’ll make your beggar’s life bloom. If you beg with your limbs damaged, you will be able to eat heartily every day.”

As Lee Pil-ryeong clenched his fist, a crackling sound echoed from his fingers.

At that time, a muffled voice was heard from the back.

“Are you someone who doesn’t know what humiliation is, that you’re interfering in kids’ fights?”

The mouths of the people who were just watching opened all at once.

“Soju-seon!”
