Volcanic Spirit

27, Red mist covers the mountain.

The most famous mountain on the island is Eungdang Volcano.

No matter how great the Southern clique was, it was no match for the reputation of the volcano. However, Yeo-san was unexpectedly chosen as the most popular mountain. If the mountain that connects the volcano and Jongnam Mountain crosses the island, it is Yeo-san that is caught somewhere.

Nevertheless, Yeosan was crowded with people all year round.

It is a hot spring.

Usually when digging, hot water would often spring up from somewhere. Nevertheless, the reason why Yeosu's hot springs are the most popular is because history and tradition are alive.

Qin Shi Huang drilled the road, and Dang Taejong built a palace on the hot springs.

And the famous Danghyeonjong changed the name of the palace to Hwachonggung Palace and made a hot spring just for poppy.

Its name is Yeoktang.

'Will there be Gwaneum-dong, where only those whose identities have been verified, can enter the hall?'

Such Hwacheonggung Palace was burned to ashes by the rebellion of Ansa Temple at the end of Danghyeonjong. The person who appeared here was a seven-time rejection of Kang Ho and a venerable man known for his eccentricity.

Bokcheonjeok, called Geumgumnoho, invested a huge amount of money to restore Hwacheonggung Palace and accepted it as a guest, not only for the government and military, but also for the prestigious residential area. As a result, the name of Hwacheonggung Palace was given to the sky in a different way than before, and now it has become a resort for the rich and strictly prohibited foreigners from entering and leaving the palace.

By the way, who's the enemy?"

Yi Hwon sighed, eavesdropping on the history of Hwacheong Palace, where the plumbearers who sat on the base talked.

'I used to be close to all the rich.’

Of course it's just his idea.

Before returning, I searched for the rich whenever I lacked the money to drink. They detested Yi Hwon and spared no money even though they might have avoided him. No, I wouldn't have. As soon as the Chu-ma suddenly turned into a wild night festival, the whole village was not unaware that it would turn into a muddle. I gave him the money thinking that I avoid it not just because I'm afraid of poop, but because it's dirty. Anyway, I don't remember hearing the name "reciprocal" before returning. The owner of Geumgumnojo or Hwacheonggung Palace should have remembered.

But I don't remember.

You wouldn't have known it before.

Through the work of Hana Ant Cave, I felt vaguely aware of the enemy's behavior.

'Maybe he was brainwashed, too.'

And when Gwaneum-dong's work was finished, he would naturally disappear. Turning his eyes, he looked up at Yeosan, which he could see through the window of Julu. On the middle of the Yeo-san Mountain, there was a brilliant warlord with his head sticking out. There was Gwaneum-dong, which was left as if a cow were seducing, somewhere beyond Hwacheong Palace.

"What's in it?"

Lee Hwon licked his lower lip, tilting his glass.

It would be best if there was alcohol.

Enemies who did not know one thing could not have hidden something as good as alcohol. I thought about something that might be in Gwaneum-dong, recalling the memories before the return. In the process, sixteen bottles of alcohol disappeared, and he faced the anxious eyes of Jum So-yi.

"I'll give you an interim settlement."

Jum So-yi was pleased with Lee Hwon's words.

"Oh, no! I'm just going to save you for your consideration. First of all, the amount you've taken so far, ···."."."."."

"Ah! This way will pay the bill."

Go Cheon-rak sat opposite with his tongue out.

"How do you really know?"

Instead of answering questions about eu-hydro-physics, he pointed to Jomsoi. After receiving the silver pocket, Jeom So-yi left in joy.

"You just find out. You know it too. The peak and the super peak are as big as the sky and the ground. You can't tell by explaining it to someone you haven't been to."

When Lee Hwon spoke as if he were arrogant, Ko Chun-rak poked his lips. When he realized himself in the Inwangjeon Hall, he was not at the zenith, but he did not argue.

"Yes, yes. Okay. By the way, do you know what the nickname of Hwachung Palace is? It's a small port. The pleasure of Hangju was moved to Hwachong Palace. But if you ask what's inside Hwachong Palace, you can't answer. There must be something."

"What about the volcano?"

"The eldest brother went to his home town. I've found a way to infiltrate the Moorimian Island West Coast. You'll be able to send a letter when you want."

Lee Hwon nodded.

"Great work. Maybe I should just give up going in there.”

Gocheon-rak opened his eyes wide.

"I thought you would break into Hwachong Palace without thinking. Are you scared?"

"Hoot, it would've been if there were no men. But there are so many people in there who have nothing to do with Kang Ho. He's holding her like a barrier just in case. We need to get them out."

I wanted to be a drunk, not a criminal.

As soon as he gets entangled with the government, even Kang Ho's silence will not protect him. It's best to avoid getting involved in a troublesome affair.

"You're thinking, too."

"Of course. I'm a drunk, not a fool."

Go Chun-rak had a suspicious look on his face.

"You don't want me to be bait, do you?"

"There's a separate bait."

"Then what do I do?"

"If they start coming out, the boundaries will loosen. To set on fire at that time, or spread rumors. If the outsiders get out, I'll be able to do what I want."

Go Cheon-rak nodded at Lee Hwon's order.

"Okay. And you?"

After emptying the last glass, I got up from my seat.

"I'm going to the Hao Gate."

*

It was not difficult to find the mark of Hao-mun.

However, the Yeo San branch of Haomun was located in the center of the busy street, unlike the lower part of the volcano. Even the whole annex of Julu was being worn.

"How did you know that you're a guest?"

The janitor, who identified himself as a bachelor's degree, looked up and down at Lee Hwon. Yi Hwon did not use the phonetic language of a superior client, and looked around as if he had never visited Hao Gate before.

"Oh! I just came across the street."

"Well, the principle is to pay the guest in advance,·····.""

Lee Hwon pulled out a pocket the size of a person's head.

When he put his hand in and stirred it, the sound of the clashing between the silver letters was behind him. After a while, he took out ten nyangs of silver and threw them on the table and said,

"I think this should be enough."

"Haha, that's enough."

The scholar smiled brightly and collected the benefactor as if he had no one to refuse money. Hana's eyes sank deeper than the first time.

"Yes, what do you want to know? Do you want to know about the pass to Hwachung Palace or the nearby red-light district?"

At first glance, he seemed to ignore Lee Hwon.

One, Lee Hwon blinks his eyes like Kang Ho-chul.

"I don't need it all! I'd like to know the identity of the Bokcheonist, the source of the funds, and the Gwaneum-dong, a secret space inside the palace."

Jong's eyes narrowed as Lee Hwon continued to speak.

"Well, that's important enough."

Lee Hwon smiled and shook his big pocket.

"Wouldn't this be enough?"

"Okay. Instead, I need about a day to collect and classify information. Where should I give you the stovepipe?"

"Send a man to the peaceful cup at the end of the road. The balance is then paid."

Jong bowed deeply to his son, Lee Hwon, and thanked him.

"Thank you for using Hao Moon."

"Then I will ask you as soon as possible."

Lee Hwon left the branch after patting Jong on the shoulder as if to encourage his subordinates. After clearing the scrolls on the wall, Jong said through a small hole.

"Tell the branch manager you'd like to see him for a while."

*

The bait Lee Hwon said is himself.

If it were a mysterious organization he had been through so far, he would not have left the branch of Haomun unattended when plotting at Hwachong Palace. They're good at brainwashing, so they would have done anything they could.

Yi Hwon threw himself into the bed after looking down at the foggy author.

"There's nothing I can lose."

If the Yeosan branch is not related to the mysterious organization, it should get the information it wants and remain an arrogant post-basement. However, if it is related to mystical organizations, it was clear that he would come to visit himself now that he mentioned Bok Chun-jeok and Gwaneum-dong.

'If you cut off the tail one by one,···.'.''

Someday the head will show itself.

Lee Hwon closed his eyes after emptying the bottle.

I felt a faint air before I even fell asleep.

I burst out laughing.

'You must be in a hurry. I was going to wait for you for at least three.'

As soon as I swung my blood, I heard a conversation outside the door.

"I came back and emptied 12 bottles of alcohol."

"Huh, I've heard that it's a rich start, but it's too little without thinking. I feel less guilty about being rude. This is just a windfall."

"I don't think there's anything on my back, so I've been told to clean up."

"What's clean. Do you have any idea how many people disappear in this town a day? Nobody cares."

Those would have been sent from the real Hao Gate.

He swirled the bloodstream to amplify the five senses, and set its direction out of the window.

This time I felt three signs.

It's the kind of thing you often felt before your return.

'Oh! I never thought I'd miss Salsu.’

Salsu had to be able to learn the skill of a single stroke and conceal his spirit. Therefore, there is a limited amount of military merit that can be trained. Therefore, it was possible to kill a master in the upper row of a couple of steps, even if he reached the peak of his maturity.

They are not the ones that can be dealt with in the Hao Gate at first sight.

'That's the real one.

Lee Hwon started snoring vigorously.

After a while, smoke permeated through the lower part of the visit.

He would not use anything as precious as sangongdok in Haomun, so he would have been sleeping or single at best. I opened my nostrils and sucked in the smoke. It was a cheap yawn among all the confused single scents. As soon as the author was covered with fog, the room was filled with smoke.

Gains and losses

"Let's just put a knife in the boat and drag it out."

Two men were guarded against the corridor, and eight entered.

Yi Hwon shed his sleep as soon as Hao Mundo reached the point.

"Uh, what are you guys?"

"Choo!"

He twisted his body to avoid a knife that was placed on his lower abdomen.

Bug! Bug! Bug! Bug! Bug!

An expensive quilt made of duck feathers was torn off. Enemies thrashed through the flutter of feathers. He seems to have mastered military prowess, but he is capable of becoming a top-notch player.

"Laughing! You bastards!"

Lee Hwon made fun of his fists and feet while stumbling.

Three or four people rolled around, and a scream and groan broke out.

"It's working. Push it!"

The sprayers moved while the man, who appeared to be the captain, was complaining. One moved to the corridor and Hao Mun also arranged two people. And slowly came up, hiding himself between the fog and the feathers. At the same time, the window crept open and two sprayers slid down.

'Oh, I'm tired of it.'

Lee Hwon had to continue his hard struggle with Hao Mundo while feeling all of it with his eyes, ears, and inner strength.

A moment later the sword of Hao Mundo brushed against his chest.

As soon as his clothes were cut off and his skin was lightly cut, Lee Hwon's body fluttered toward the wall. At that time, three sprayers simultaneously struck a cooperative sword among the Hao Mundos.

"You bastards! You're very careful."

Lee Hwon's irritating remark changed the eyes of the sprayers.

Bang!

As soon as Hana opened the Amcheon-gunnimbo, the target in front of her was scattered like a fog, and the moment the red mist was mixed in the smoke, the spray of three people was hit by the lower stomach and chin at the same time and confused.

"Uh! Uh! What is it?"

The Hao Mundos roared.

Lee Hwon threw the sprayers into the corner, not caring about them. Then he turned toward Hao Mundo and clenched his fist.

"Don't blame me for the murder, for I have taken it as a joke."

When Haomundo was about to say something, his fist went in.

Quasik!

The whole jaw was crushed, and the two ankles were the same. Hao Mundos screamed, holding their crushed ankles together. In spite of all the trouble, I spotted them. Perhaps a good night's sleep will make you limp and live a life of atonement.

"The long-awaited time is back."

Lee Hwon lifted the bed.

Below the bed lay dozens of bottles of liquor prepared from day to day. When you drink together, you usually have a heart-to-heart talk.

"Come on! Let's have a heart-to-heart talk."

Yi Hwon poured alcohol after removing the poison dagger from the mouth of the spray.
