Volcanic Spirit

12, Meet a true teacher in life.

Three days.

It took Lee Hwon to get out of the old army's suspicion.

They met face to face to face and talked about alcohol constantly. The old man, who was trying to catch the pod, was exhausted first.

How to cast and manage alcohol, until the time to open the stopper.

Lee Hwon made more than 20 mistakes in three days. As a result, Roh rescued three bottles of liquor that should have been thrown away, and kept the four that almost tasted bad.

"Well, that doesn't mean I believe in you."

Lee Hwon smiled, showing his teeth.

The old army still growled like enmity, but from one point on, neither of them mentioned Yuk Tae-hwa Seobongju. Now that this is the case, I have decided to use my status as Ju Ryung-cheon's successor from time to time.

After the return, it was a lie and a drinking capacity.

Yi Hwon lamented as he walked between the jars with his hands behind him.

"Oh! You must bury this drink in the ground. Why didn't you?"

The old soldier twitched his cheeks.

"Man! I was going to do it in the afternoon. And are you ordering me now?"

"What do you mean an order? I don't know what you're going to do, but can I throw this drink away?"

"Hmm! A thief who stole a drink! You dig!"

Lee Hwon extended his wrist instead of answering.

"Why don't you try another pulse?"

The old soldier kicked his tongue.

When he first kidnapped Lee Hwon, he had almost no history. Isn't it just enough for the initial angle of inertia to be felt? That's why I didn't care if he wandered around. I thought I could get him anytime.

"You! You must have heard some heroics from him. If you intend to provoke me to gain military merit, give up. I will never teach you martial arts!"

Lee Hwon snorted inwardly.

I'm not going to teach you for free.

When the old soldier brought his pickaxe, he had to put a strain on his face to hold back his laughter.

Boom! Boom!

The old soldier did a few pickaxes and narrowed the middle of his forehead.

No matter how warm the inside of the cave was, the ground was not soft. Eventually, the old soldier threw his pickaxe and hit the cave floor with his hands.

His blow was equivalent to a super-high master.

The ground was hollowed out one by one in a room.

After a while, the space for the jar was completed.

"There should be no empty space between the jar and the ground. Fill it with soil."

the head of a river

The moment the old soldier clenched his fist, a chill ran through him.

"That's for you."

Ten days have passed.

The old army occasionally emptied the old army.

This is to get the materials Lee Hwon asked for. Most of them were taken out of the warehouse of volcanic waves, but some had to be obtained through markers or battlefields. We still have only half the ingredients.

Whenever that happened, Lee Hwon prepared to make a blue sky ice wine.

Although the food followed like a shadow, it was almost impossible for a mere aesthetic to understand Lee Hwon's intentions.

Boom! Boom!

"You bastard. You don't have to go. I'm just looking."

Lee Hwon stood in front of the cliff.

It is true that Nogun-dong is located in a remote area, but Hassan was not impossible. I stared at the winding mountain path to the end of my view. The forest was full from side to side and looked like the backbone of a dragon from afar. Changryongnyeong is one of the reasons why volcanoes are called rough terrain. Strong winds and narrow roads make it easy to roll out of the road.

But I couldn't give up. There are three roads in Nogun-dong. One was Jando towards Nakanbong Peak, and the other was headed for Chodogak through the vicinity of the main mountain. And the last one, Changryongnyeong, was the only passage that could go straight down to the bottom of the volcano.

'So I can go with my eyes closed.’

It would have been late at night if we escaped.

That's why Yi Hwon captured the winding Changryongryongnyeong whenever he had time.

Lee Hwon's daily routine was consistent.

I woke up early in the morning to examine the casting process of the liquor.

Of course, the tasting was not missed.

It was the best life to be able to taste most of the existing liquor in Gangho by the number of years. Around noon, he ate with accompaniment, and from evening on, he drank a pot of liquor given by the old man.

It was so much fun that I wondered if there was a paradise on earth.

"Then the bones are gone. You bastard."

The old soldier didn't understand Lee Hwon.

Lee Hwon also refused to persuade Roh.

"I'm not going to lose my bones don't Haven't you ever heard of a good drink as a medicine?"

"You hear that shit in your life. Alcohol makes your body poor and your head dizzy, so you should forbid it. When did the volcano turn into a drinking plate? Won, ·····."."

"You'd better not learn it in the first place, because it can provoke a triumphant spirit, hurt your mind and body, and even lead to death. Isn't that right?"

If he had been an old soldier before, he would have grabbed Lee Hwon's grumbling by the collar. One or two people met face to face every day for over a month or so. No matter how much a super-peak master, he could not overcome his loneliness. A month was enough for hate to build up between the two, as the form of phosphorus also means that people and people shoulder to shoulder. No matter how angry Roh was, he did not mention Yuk Tae-hwa Seobongju. As a disciple of Taoism, the drink was admitted to having left his hand.

"Hey! The little guy's mouth got drunk and he's been so mean. Hey! Bad manners, but none of the drinkers are normal!"

"If my mouth wasn't wet, I would have thrown away half of these jars."

Boom!

He even responded to the food.

As an old lady who has lived with the old soldier for more than a decade, Lee Hwon's joining would have made the entire village rich.

The old soldier blinked his eyes, alternately looking at the human dog.

"Since when did you get along so well?"

"There are two people and a dog, and all three can't fight."

You can't beat a drunk with words in the first place. Even the old army has been living in the mountains for decades. Moreover, he was in a hurry, so it was difficult to organize his inner thoughts and pour them out.

"Hey! I'm proud of you. You bastard! Take this!"

The old soldier flung a bundle as if he were throwing a rote.

"What is this?"

Despite Lee Hwon's question, the old soldier pretended not to hear.

"Anju, you're not upset, are you?"

Boom!

This dog makes the same noise every time, so there's no way to know what's inside. However, as soon as he opened the Botong, the state of the old soldier's mind was completely conveyed.

"Ha, this is so."

Lee Hwon smiled in vain.

Inside the Botong was full of herbs that were good for hangovers, such as huts, mugwort, and 칡. Where else did you get the herbs that are hard to find in the middle of winter?

"How shy the old man is."

Yi Hwon shouted in a playful tone toward the inside of the cave.

"Old man! May I scratch your back?"

"There you go! You bastard. I'm going to be honoured, so don't disturb me, just boil the porridge well."

I didn't drink that evening.

I was satisfied enough just to eat the well-boiled porridge.

"Ha."

But when I lay on the bed, I couldn't sleep easily.

It was the first night of deep thought.

The volcano was the highest and most rugged of the midlands.

The volcano, which is not easy to climb despite the fine weather, has turned white. As if to boast that the real winter is finally here, the snow fell out of sight.

Yi Hwon breathed out his voice at the entrance of Nogun-dong.

"It's about time you came."

However, even though the appointment time has passed, the snow does not die down. Even Nogun-dong was open all over the place near Nakanbong Peak. So the whole world, which touched the view, was white and shiny.

At that moment, the snack barked.

Boom!

Yi Hwon amplified the five senses by activating his blood vessels.

At the end of Changryongnyeong, an old soldier carrying a large jar appeared.

"Ah!"

Changryongnyeong was narrow and steep enough to roll away for a long time even if he lost his footing a little bit. Hana, the old soldier, moved forward, shaking himself in a zigzag, without a change of speed. Perhaps it was one of the visions of the volcano, Boo Woon-pyo. Through the biting wind, while speeding, the movement was as soft as a cloud. The old army broke through such a heavy snowstorm and set foot in the old army.

"What took you so long? We've been waiting a long time."

Lee Hwon grumbled as if to hide the waiting facts. The old soldier laughed in vain, putting down the big jar of the general.

"It's all the stuff you've been whining to get. Do you know how annoying it is to travel between Changryongryong and Changryong in this weather?"

The old man lifted the bucket in the cave, shaking snow from his shoulder. But as soon as the cap was pulled out, a faint steam came out. A glass of warm water made me feel more comfortable, even though I reached the point of non-aggression between the two countries.

'Hung!'

Such an isolated place and longer-than-expected time naturally blended the two who could not mix like water and oil. It still seemed more bitter than a grandchild.

Lee Hwon knows, and Roh Gun knows.

I think she knows snacks now.

Nothing has changed on the surface.

After a while, when the heavy snow stopped and a brief silence came, all the ingredients Lee Hwon wanted were ready.

"I'm going to be on a seniority, so get yourself ready."

The old soldier deliberately dodged his seat. Anju also wagged her tail and headed inside the cave along with the old soldier.

“······.”

Lee Hwon stared at the material piled up on one side.

It was a collection of materials that Roh has collected in all directions over the past two months. But more than one of them was just the material that I gave you to buy time.

솨아아아

As soon as I touched my chest, I felt the energy of the ice flower plant was weak. It is the main ingredient of Cheongcheon ice wine, which cannot be found even if it is the best day in the world. Therefore, I thought that I could not share with others even if the world was two. However, there was a heart that bloomed from a certain point on the other side of the decision.

'Sigh.'

Two months have passed like that.

And the winter's fury has subsided, making us expect spring little by little. Around the time when the volcano was about to take off its white clothes and change back to its green ones, Yi Hwon asked the old man for a private meeting.

"What's going on?"

The old man had a smile around his mouth since morning.

be no better than a super-peak masterBut the power of time cannot be ignored. Therefore, I enjoyed the spring energy, which is more lively than the harsh winter.

Lee Hwon, on the other hand, had an unknown look on his face.

"In the next ten months, the drink I told you won't be finished."

The old soldier hesitated as if he had been struck by lightning.

But instead of blaming Lee Hwon, he breathed out a sigh, saying, "The ground should go away."

"Ha."

"I'm sorry."

Lee Hwon bowed his head with sincerity for the first time since his return. He can't drink, but he has a strong desire to make the best drink. I had to apologize for this once for deceiving such a person.

'I swore to be true to the wine all the time. But I promised him to lie with me as bait to drink. If it's a drunken thing, I should have been confident until the end.'

However, he did not do so, so he did not know how to bend his head.

Then the old soldier's rough hand covered Lee Hwon's head.

"Great work. This is what I should have let go when Yuk Tae-hwa, Seobong-ju left my hand." But he couldn't give up his lingering feelings, and he was obsessed with it, and he dragged you into things that heaven wouldn't allow."

"Old Army."

"It's done. It's done now. It doesn't seem as if it's going to get caught, as if it's going to be seen. He gave up one thing and said, "I can see the moment I turn around, and I can' It would have been wrong from the start because I tried to be a drinker in the first place because I didn't enjoy drinking. Now that I've learned this after 30 years of obsession and delusions, I can say that this is also my own duty. Though I have failed in my long-cherished desire, I will look for something that only I can do. I didn't live as a disciple of the volcano, so now I'm a disciple of the volcano."

Eventually, Lee Hwon, who couldn't stand it, held out a bottle of liquor from behind his back.

Roh blinked at the seemingly auspicious illness.

"What is this?"

"It doesn't exist in this world."

"What?"

Lee Hwon replied with a straight face when he was drinking.

"It's called Cheongcheon Ice Sheet."

The old soldier's hardened face melted like snow.

A look of triumph and disembowelment bloomed as bright as a flower.

'Yes, this is it.

Lee Hwon was proud.

There is no happier moment than when you brag about alcohol to a drunkard.
