Surviving as a Cripple in Murim

45 – Heir of Wolf Blood (10)

It was a good farewell, and a clean one.

Mukgang thought so.

Even if the wolf hadn’t stepped out of the dark and talked to me.

“It’s been a while. Silence.”

“Because there is no reason to call you older brother. Don’t call me brother.”

It was a tone that drew a line firmly, but Samabu didn’t care and showed his respect to Mukgang with his characteristic friendly smile.

“If Daehyeop, like Muk-hyung, is not called hyung, who would you call hyung? This time, I, Sama-au, received great favor from Hyung Mu.”

The guardian of the dog.

In an instant, a greedy tiger nephew was created whose head was filled with thoughts of robbing his younger brother, a bastard who did not know when to attack him, but Muk-gang let out a tired sigh.

“… So what business do you have with me?”

“If you received grace, of course you shouldn’t have to repay it.”

As Samabu clapped his hands lightly, he carefully opened the lid of the luxurious wooden box held by the servant waiting behind him.

Inside, there was a plaque of appreciation engraved with “Sama.”

“This is a plaque of appreciation from Sapa Sajeongju (邪派四庭柱) Mangtakjoui (莽卓操懿) Samase Family.”

Grace with gold, resentment with a sword. It is an unspoken rule that must be followed by those who belong to the Murim, leaving the political world.

“If you show this plaque of appreciation, the sapa organizations under Samase, such as the Jeokrang faction and the Cheongsa faction, will never be hostile to the silent sentence and will provide assistance if necessary. Also….”

“Stop. That’s it.”

These words were not worth listening to anymore, so Muk-gang took out a cloth with beef jerky in his arms and cut off Samabu’s words.

“If it’s something in return, I’ve already received it from your son. So, put that useless appreciation plaque back.”

Samabu smiled meaningfully at the jerky seen through the slipped cloth and bowed more respectfully to Muk-gang than before.

It was an example of parents showing their children’s teachers.

“Thank you for accepting an ugly child as a disciple.”

Muk-gang let out a heavy sigh as he could see Hwa-hwa, who had been packing a lunch box to teach his martial arts lessons to Man-cheon, his master.

What fathers and daughters do is the same. Blood is thicker than water, so it seems that he has passed on to his children even that dark inside that does not need to be handed down.

It seems that the shameless ones went to Mancheon, and the insidious ones went to Hwahwa. A shameless and insidious wolf family.

“… So is that all you have to say?”

At Muk Kang’s calm questioning, Sima Bu erased the smile from his face and brought out his true story.

“What do you think about the movement of the Cheonma Shinkyo?”

Muk-gang didn’t have the courage to answer, but Muk-gang had no choice but to open his heavy mouth when he remembered how he had eaten a lunch box from Hwa-hwa.

It is the duty of the Buddha to recite at least Buddhist sutras after receiving alms.

“The more chaotic you are inside, the more you turn your eyes to the outside.”

Muk-gang left only those words and turned around and walked away again in silence. Samabu shouted something from behind, but he did not stop his steps.

“I told you as much as I needed. Think for yourself about the rest.”

Take the beef jerky out of the wrapping cloth and put it in your mouth. It tasted good.

They invaded the Baehwagyo Bridge, dared to seek a sacrifice to the Heavenly Demon, and raised troops to subdue the Samasega.

From the outside, it looks like Cheonma Shinkyo is preparing for activities in earnest, but Mukgang doesn’t look like it. It’s just that I turned my eyes to the outside to calm the chaos inside.

To be honest, it’s more amazing that I’ve been quiet until now. He is also the spiritual support and symbol of the Heavenly Demon Church. The first horse of all times and modern times, the Heavenly Demon is-

Look up at the sky. I look up at the night sky where the moon is obscured by dark clouds.

-Because he went missing seventeen years ago on the day the sky was covered.

“… Shall we pursue?

Jangsam, who had been hiding using occult magic, appeared and waited for his order to come out, and Sima Bu shook his head.

“It is not the right thing to follow your child’s teacher.”

Since when did you take care of the dori? It’s ridiculous. People get really soft when family is involved.

“… If you want them to learn even one more thing like that, can’t you teach them yourself?”

I don’t know why he didn’t tell Manchun, the eldest son, about the family’s secret martial arts in the first place. And to Jangsam’s reasonable question, Samabu answered with a self-deprecating bitter smile.

“I already learned a great Jeongpa martial arts. What are you doing by teaching sapa martial arts? I don’t want to ruin my child’s life.”

Sapa Sajeongju (邪派四庭柱)~ What is it?

How can he reveal to his family that he is a dirty boss who buries men and women of all ages in mountains and seas if he is disturbed? It’s impossible.

I want to be seen only as a good husband and father to my beloved wife and children. That’s why the Demonic Cult’s invasion was fabricated as the work of bandits by spending money.

I want to immediately report it to the government office or the political faction, but in that case, the details of the transaction with the Demonic Cult will be investigated. The Samasega’s true identity is revealed.

Now, Sima Sei’s Yang Zhihua plan is finally on track. I can finally say goodbye to the sickest shade.

Sima Bu turned his head and looked in the direction of Manten’s room. I look at him through the eyes of a father who is worried about his children, not the boss of Sapa.

“… I will never make Chen Yi bear the yoke of Safa. I will pass on only bright and good things.”

‘You bastard without conscience.’

Fortunately, Jangsam succeeded in spitting out the harsh words that almost came out by voice.

If you hate Ma Gyo-rang and Sapa, you shouldn’t even eat the money they give you. The mindset that he would suck up money in the dark and go to the sun after sucking ‘Jjook~!’ Was a very thief mind.

… But thinking about it again. In the first place, Sapa itself is a den of thieves, and Samabu is one of the thieves’ bosses.

If a thief takes a thief and scolds him for not having a conscience, the thief will also be in trouble.

Jangsam swears to himself and nods his head in agreement.

***

Summer when peach blossoms are in full bloom. Beautiful light pink petals flutter and cover the sky.

And, as promised, Mancheon and Hwahwa shared a cup of oath under the peach tree.

“I say to the God of Heaven and Earth. I, Sima Manchuan, swear that I will never betray you and will be with you until the day I die.”

It was a typical oath phrase to the sky, but there was a little lacking in Hwa-hwa’s hearing. So I modified the back part to my liking.

“I, Sama Hwa-hwa, will never betray my brother, I will love him, and I firmly swear that I will be with her even if her life ends.”

Swear an oath to the sky and share a drink.

Dowon’s oath overlaps with the red thread, making the bond between the two stronger.

Hwanghwa shyly removed his lips from the glass and looked at Mancheon’s face, hesitant in embarrassment.

Dark eyebrows, a sharp jawline, a well-proportioned nose, and tawny eyes reminiscent of a wolf. As usual, a cool older brother.

… Yes, my own wonderful older brother.

From noble mtl dot com

Gently place your hand over your chest. Because of the joy of being connected with my beloved older brother, I can feel my heart beating fast even over my clothes.

“I made an oath, shall we visit the market?”

At the kind and warm hand that is extended to him, Hwa-hwa’s face is dyed blue like a scattering peach blossom.

A man and a woman hold her hand outside of her. It is a truly vulgar and vulgar act.

… But the body moves first. My reason is paralyzed by my brother’s sweet whisper.

Gently raises her fine fingers on the palm of her hand. Hand in hand with her.

Two men and a woman who have made an oath walk side by side on a street where peach blossoms are scattered.

A pleasant hum comes out spontaneously.

Combing her beautiful dark hair with a comb her brother gave her from the market.

I only gave her one glance because she looked a little pretty. She bought it right away without hesitation.

It’s not just good to receive a gift. I’m glad that my older brother paid attention to her and looked after her.

I feel full that I am loved by this person. It’s a happy feeling.

I look at her hand that was connected to my brother.

My older brother’s warmth comes to mind. Her brother’s hand comes to mind. I remember my brother’s voice. Brother’s face comes to mind.

It was a big deal. She said how long it had been since they had been separated and entered the room, and she was already missing her brother.

… But he no longer considered himself vulgar or vulgar.

Because it is ‘common sense’ for couples to want to see each other. It is as ‘common sense’ for a brother and a sister to get married.

That’s why I don’t hesitate to visit.

I want to run faster than the wind, but I can’t. Paying attention to each movement, it moves beautifully and gracefully.

As the wife of her beloved brother and the hostess of her future sister-in-law, she must show a modest appearance.

Straighten your back and take a regular step-step-step- toward your brother’s room. Then, just as she was about to knock on her door, she spoke to Hwa-hwa, a maid who was passing by.

“My lady, the second young master is not in her room now because she has gone to send a letter to her.”

It feels like being hit in the back of the head with a hammer. Of course, it wasn’t a shock that my brother wasn’t in the room. Her head turns slowly.

“… Too much… Mistress?”

“Ah~ Too much Mistress~ You don’t know. There was a time when the second son-in-law went to Jegal Sega to study for about a year. It seems to be the girl I was close with at the time. She had been exchanging letters until now to see if the relationship was really good. In my opinion, there is something special between the two.”

Information you want to know but don’t want to hear pours out from the mouth of a talkative servant girl. She knocks on Chulhwa’s body and her heart.

How loud did she have to be? Hearing the voice of another servant looking for the maidservant, the maidservant bowed her head to Hwahwa, and then she walked away.

“… ….”

A strange silence hangs in the hallway where the talkative maid disappears after making a lot of noise. Hwa-hwa opened Mancheon’s door with her blank eyes.

Even though she knows that she shouldn’t be like this, she unknowingly goes through her brother’s desk. When she opened the drawer, she saw dozens of cherished letters.

The names of the senders were all Gwahae.

Why… Do you treasure the letters from your friends one by one? This is strange… Brother.

I calm my trembling body and put the letter back into the drawer.

I wanted to check the contents of the letter right away, but that was a really vulgar act, so I bit my lip and came out of the room quickly.

Exactly, he ran away. He could not accept the fact that the affection that should have been directed only to himself was directed elsewhere.

Hwa-hwa’s legs run fast through the hallway. It doesn’t even look sober.

Her beloved brother shows traces of another woman. Involuntarily, her breathing quickens and her fever rises.

Her body trembles with anger towards those who dare to covet her possessions and anxiety that her precious existence may be taken away.

Tears form in his burning red eyes.

With a rough motion that doesn’t feel like elegance, she opens the door to her private study where Samabu is currently located.

“What is this-“

“For me… Please tell me your martial arts.”

I finally found my own older brother. It is only my own Shaoxuant. Whoever my opponent is, I will never lose.

Even if it’s stolen, I’ll use my strength to get it back.

Greedy flames flicker in his two red eyes. The greedy wolf hidden behind her grace reveals her face.

The blood of the wolf is inherited.
