Episode 83. Good Neighbor, Good Friend2014.06.17.
Sa Su-yeon opened her eyes. She then realized that she was lying in an unfamiliar place.
‘Where am I?’
As she quietly blinked, she remembered that she had lost consciousness due to an internal force collision.
The moment when shock shook my whole body, I saw the colorful lights of the banquet hall spinning dizzyingly and people’s surprised looks. And the voice of Sonbin calling her suddenly floods her mind.
‘Huh!’
Sa Su-yeon reflexively stood up. The wind blew down her thin blanket, revealing the simple clothes she was wearing that were close to her robe.
‘This… … .’
I touched the collar with my hand, but it was something I couldn’t remember. Sa Su-yeon turned her head and saw someone lying face down on the table.
Half of her face was hidden by her flowing hair, but Sa Su-yeon could tell right away. The person who was laying his head down with his arms as pillows was none other than Son Bin.
‘Sun Confucius.’
My nerves, which had been tense from tension, calmed down in an instant. Sa Su-yeon slowly got down from the bed. The blanket makes a soft sound.
Sabak.
Sa Su-yeon quietly approached Son Bin. Then she reached out her hand and with her slender fingers gently lifted the hair that covered his face. Sa Su-yeon smiled at his revealed expression without realizing it.
‘Strange expression.’
Sonbin’s defenseless expression as he fell asleep looked somehow strange. She even looks a little stupid, unlike her usual intelligent self.
Could it be that he was protecting himself from losing his mind?
‘Oh, now that I think about it… … .’
Suddenly, I was worried that Sonbin might have been hurt. This was because there was no one other than himself and Sa Su-yeon who could deal with the expert of the Blood Dragon Gate.
New liquid.
Sa Su-yeon listened to Son Bin’s regular breathing and carefully examined his complexion. Fortunately, Sonbin didn’t seem to suffer any harm. So, he must have been taking care of Sa Su-yeon like this.
Sa Su-yeon, who was looking down at Son Bin who was sleeping like that, hesitated a little and then carefully stretched out her hand and placed it on Son Bin’s cheek.
Sarah.
I felt a gentle warmth at my fingertips. Her white fingers, which lingered on Sonbin’s cheek for a moment, slowly moved and slid along the bridge of her Sonbin’s nose.
Her fingers, carefully grazing the tip of his nose along the soft curve, touched Sonbin’s lips.
Okay.
The soft, warm touch seemed to say that Sa Su-yeon’s memories of the snowy mountain were not an illusion. A vague memory that was vague and confusing, and I wasn’t even sure if it was real or a hallucination.
Sarah.
It was the exact moment when Sa Su-yeon blushed without realizing it at the feeling conveyed through her fingertips. I heard someone shouting outside.
fault.
Sa Su-yeon raised her body and at the same time moved her gaze to find her sword. Her sword was propped up at the foot of her bed. She threw her body away in one go, and the moment Gunner Yeon grabbed her sword, the door opened.
Sweet.
“You’re awake!”
A woman appeared with a welcoming voice.
Sa Su-yeon, who was standing in a position where he could immediately draw his sword, immediately remembered her.
“Ah, you said you were Prince Sun’s neighbor… … .”
“yes that’s right. “I’m glad you look healthy.”
Jeok Se-hwa said with a gentle smile.
Although Sa Su-yeon was wearing a light robe, her figure holding a sword gave off a sharp force as if she were standing on the battlefield.
Moreover, Jeok Se-hwa did not miss the fact that she was in a position to protect Son Bin. Jeok Se-hwa, who found Son Bin lying face down on the table, shook his head softly.
“I knew it would be like this. After not sleeping for two whole days… … . Prince Sun!”
“Uhm… … .”
Sonbin was tossing and turning as if he had heard Jeok Se-hwa calling, and Sa Soo-yeon asked Jeok Se-hwa.
“Has it been two days?”
“yes. And this is the guesthouse where our group stays. God is also here.”
Jeok Se-hwa answered with a smile.
“What happened to the warrior of the Blood Dragon Gate?”
“Prince Sun blew it away.”
Jeoksehwa’s expression that it was blown away was accurate. The opponent was thrown back, spouting blood, and even rolled around on the floor.
“Fly? Confucius Sun?”
Sa Su-yeon frowned slightly. Se-Hwa blinked her eyes a few times and spoke.
“As expected, you didn’t know either.”
“yes? what… … .”
“Sa Soje!”
Sa Su-yeon’s retort was cut off by Son Bin’s voice.
Sa Su-yeon turned her head. Before she knew it, Sonbin’s eyes, a mixture of surprise and joy, were turned towards her as she stood up.
“You’re awake. Fortunately, the. “I’m so glad.”
Sonbin’s eyes were so warm as he spoke while showing respect that it felt like I could feel warmth in my heart just by looking at them.
Sa Su-yeon smiled calmly and expressed her respect.
“thank you. “You’ve been taking care of me all this time.”
“no. Of course… … .”
Sonbin’s face, which was speaking with his head down, turns slightly red and he quickly turns his head away.
“Why are you doing this?”
“Hey, that’s… … . Huh.”
Sonbin turned his head and was unable to continue speaking. While Sa Su-yeon was making a puzzled expression, Jeok Se-hwa, who was next to her, spoke.
“Prince Sun, please leave.”
As soon as Jeok Se-hwa’s cold words fall, Son Bin quickly turns around and heads outside.
Jeok Se-hwa, who was glaring at Son Bin who was hurriedly leaving, sighed slightly and said to Sa Soo-yeon, who was still standing with a puzzled expression.
“It would be a good idea for you to tidy up your clothes as well.”
“cloth? ah!”
When you lower your head, the flimsy acupuncture gown slightly exposes the space between the collars. No, the fact that I was standing in front of a man wearing only a robe before that was ridiculously embarrassing.
bang.
With the sound of Sonbin closing the door, Sasuyeon’s face, covering her breasts with one hand, turned bright red.
Thanks to this, she didn’t even realize that her bet had moved so naturally just a moment ago.
∴
“good.”
Sinui, who was checking Sa Su-yeon’s pulse, nodded and said. His face was filled with a soft smile.
“It’s okay now. “There is no longer any need to worry about the cold running rampant or the flow of bets getting mixed up.”
“Is that true?”
Sa Su-yeon asked back without realizing it. Although he knew how foolish it was to question God’s words, he had no choice but to ask.
The fact that there was no longer any fear of extreme cold meant that the previous threat had completely disappeared.
I never thought that I would be cured so suddenly and without my knowledge.
“okay. “It’s all thanks to him.”
‘That guy?’
Sa Su-yeon was puzzled. He had no idea who Shinyi was referring to. Sinui took a deep sigh and said.
“However, as a member of the National Assembly, I am still opposed. This is a very dangerous measure that is virtually impossible for anyone but him. If he tries it wrong, he ends up killing even the people he could save. Moreover, it is still questionable whether this can even be called a complete cure.”
The expression on God’s face as he speaks is very serious. However, Sa Su-yeon did not understand at all.
“But thanks to that guy, you lived like this, so I’m just glad you did.”
Suddenly, Shinui raised his head. A smile appears on his face.
“I guess you’re the one worth choosing. If it’s him, he will definitely help you and solve your problems.”
“Who are you talking about now?”
“what? Who are you? Of course… … .”
In response to Sa Soo-yeon’s confused question, Sinui said with an expression as if he was saying something out of the blue.
“Yes, that guy. Did you say Sonbin? The bet was quite innocent, no, it was quite innocent, but I had no idea that he had such talent. As for Bimu, where on earth did a guy like that come from, Won.”
Although he spoke as if he was grumbling, God’s eyes were smiling and his voice was full of pure admiration.
Sa Su-yeon knew very well that this was God’s own praise, and the highest praise at that. But that made her even more confused.
“Did you say that Prince Sun cured me?”
Sinui nodded.
“okay. He calmed down your crazy chills. No, it’s not just calming down. The extreme energy that has been bothering you so far will actually become your strength. Just one thing… … .”
Sweet.
The door opened and Shin’s words were cut off. Sa Su-yeon, who was still confused, raised her head.
A slender girl with her face covered with cotton yarn was standing in front of her.
“After that, may I tell you?”
The delicate girl’s voice was slightly rough. Hearing the words of the cotton girl, whom Sa Su-yeon had never seen before, Shin Eui obediently got up from his seat.
“okay. “It would be better for a warrior to talk about martial arts.”
‘Martial arts? soldier?’
Sa Su-yeon still couldn’t understand. Sinui, who was coming out, spoke to the cotton girl.
“And you’ll see me later, too.”
The cotton girl nodded lightly. Sinui went out.
Sweet.
The door closes and now only Sa Su-yeon and the cotton girl are in the room. After a long silence, the girl lightly bowed and spoke.
“It’s Dangwol-ah.”
Sa Su-yeon stood up. And she bowed to the girl.
“This is Sa Su-yeon. “What do you mean?”
“Have you ever heard of poison qigong?”
‘Poison Qigong?’
Sa Su-yeon frowned slightly.
“In your case, I should probably call it Hanbing Qigong.”
Tang Yue-ah looked straight at Sa Su-yeon and said. Her intelligent eyes were shining beyond her veil. And at her next words, Sa Su-yeon’s eyes also began to sparkle.
∴
“That’s all I can say.”
Tang Yue-ah spoke, but Sa Su-yeon didn’t seem to hear. With her flushed face and her deep thoughts, she probably couldn’t hear anything.
Tang Yue’er was able to fully understand. What he told was a story that any warrior could not help but be absorbed in.
“Okay then, that’s enough.”
It was the moment when Tang Yue-erh slightly lowered his head and was about to turn around.
“Wait.”
Sa Su-yeon called her.
“Why me… … “Are you doing this to me?”
Sa Su-yeon’s eyes were surprisingly calm as she asked. It’s hard to believe that she was reminded just a moment ago.
“I don’t know much about the customs here, but this is not something I can say lightly. Especially like this… … .”
Sa Su-yeon paused for a moment. How should I express what I just heard?
“If it’s about Shingongjeolhak.”
Shingongjeolhak (神功絶學). There was no choice but to say that. She is a martial artist who can only be described as such, having learned the Hyeoncheon sword technique and having seen through the numerous seasons of martial arts.
That was the essence of poison qigong that Tang Yue’er had told me about.
“It’s not that great.”
Tang Yue’er quietly smiled and said.
“No matter how much it is, if it is something that no one can use, it is ultimately meaningless.”
Sa Su-yeon had no choice but to agree with her words.
Although poisonous energy was definitely something that could be called a new energy technique, not everyone could use it.
As of now, it is a season that only Dangwol-ah and, according to her explanation, Sa Su-yeon herself can do. Of course, in the case of Sasuyeon, it should be called Hanbing Machinery.
“And you will reach that point sooner or later without me telling you. “All I did was give a little help.”
That is not a reason. Why would she, a stranger, give that ‘little help’ in the first place?
“but… … .”
“Don’t get hurt again.”
Tang Yue said.
“Don’t be sick, and don’t vomit blood. Dying is even more unforgivable.”
Tang Yue’s eyes were eerily cold as she spoke.
“Because I never want to see him in pain again.”
Sa Su-yeon was able to intuitively know who she was talking about.
As Tang Yue-ah turned away, Sa Su-yeon asked again.
“What is your relationship with Sun Gongja?”
Tang Yue stopped. She answered quietly without even looking at Sa Su-yeon.
“I’m a neighbor.”
Sa Su-yeon felt that there was a smile mixed in her voice as she spoke.
“And he’s also a gourmet.”
Sabak.
With those words, Tang Yue’er went out. Sa Su-yeon, who was left alone, lightly bit her lip.
‘Neighbor, a foodie?’
A gourmet person means that he or she is a person who just eats food. It may not be a good thing, but it means that you are by my side anyway.
It suddenly occurred to me that Sonbin was talking to a cute young lady in the banquet hall. She introduced herself as her neighbor too.
But now, even the unidentified girl wearing a cotton thread is said to be a neighbor. Additionally, the word ‘sikgaek’ was added.
‘This man, what the heck…’ … .’
“What kind of man do you think he is?”
Suddenly, a voice from the door broke her from her thoughts. What appeared outside the door was Jeok Se-hwa. She slightly put her head out and smiled and said.
“sorry. “I didn’t mean to eavesdrop, but I overheard their conversation while waiting in front of the door.”
Jeok Se-hwa quietly entered inside.
“I didn’t hear the part about martial arts, so don’t worry. Oh, I’m sorry. I heard your name. Did you say he was a poison qigong?”
Let’s go.
She stood in front of Sa Su-yeon. The pink jewelry on her head sways lightly.
“Actually, I don’t know much about Prince Sun. “I went along with her as a small repayment for her help, but I never imagined that she would be the lover of that girl.”
At first, my interest in Sonbin was limited to the fact that there was a smart young man living in the same village.
However, his younger brother Jung-oh was excited and said, ‘My teacher’s swordsmanship is the best!’, and his father also commented that he seemed like a young man with quite spirit.
After asking for help with the feeling of grasping at straws, even my friend Eun Chobin seemed to have completely fallen for it. She can’t help but be interested.
“Woah, lover… … .”
Sa Su-yeon blushed and stammered. However, Jeok Se-hwa continued to speak.
“But what happened next was even greater. “After seeing you defeat the peak master of the Blood Dragon Gate and save the life of someone whom even God could not guarantee, I felt like the mysterious master I had only heard about was here.”
Even thinking about it now, I am amazed. Jeok Se-hwa smiled slightly.
“But after looking at it that much, I suddenly thought it was strange.”
Jeok Se-hwa gently touched his chin with his finger and tilted his head.
“I was wondering why a person like that would do that at the time. Oh, I’m sorry. The explanation is a bit strange, right? But it was really strange. The person I saw from the side was literally a civil servant with an interest in swords and martial arts. “It was just like that.”
Sonbin didn’t try to reveal himself, but he also didn’t try to hide it. The person who tried to hide her son-bin was actually Eun-cho-bin. Jeok Se-hwa was now able to get a rough idea of what had happened in his actions.
This is what happens when you just watch from the side, but what was it like for Nchobin, who received help directly?
“What I thought was the strangest thing was that even you didn’t know his level. “If you had known, you wouldn’t have stepped forward to protect him.”
Sa Su-yeon slightly bit her lip. It was clear from people’s words what had happened. However, the reason why Sa Soo-yeon could not accept it so quickly was because of Son Bin.
Was he hiding his state even from Sa Su-yeon? Even if he didn’t mean to, was he being deceived?
The question was at the center of the confusing emotions swirling in Sa Su-yeon’s heart.
“Oh, I’m sorry. I don’t really want to be picky about it. “I’m usually a bit distracted and think a lot, and once I start wondering, I can’t stop.”
The sound of Jeok Se-hwa speaking as if making excuses did not really reach my ears.
“Then suddenly, a thought occurred to me. Even though I think it’s weird… … .”
“What is that?”
Sa Su-yeon asked. Jeok Se-hwa smiled.
“Aren’t you the only ones who didn’t know?”
“What is that… … .”
Sa Su-yeon frowned. Jeok Se-hwa said:
“What if even Sun Confucius himself didn’t know? “He said he knew only a little about what he could do with the sword, but how great it was.”
Shoot.
It felt like something was being swept away all at once. Jeok Se-hwa’s words immediately put Sa Su-yeon’s confusion to rest.
“Maybe that’s why it was like that?”
The tone seemed to be asking for consent, but Jeok Se-hwa was already convinced.
Sa Su-yeon quietly considered her words.
“So that could have been the case, I guess.”
I felt at ease like it was a lie. Jeok Se-hwa could clearly see that Sa Su-yeon’s mind was relaxing.
Sa Su-yeon’s face, which had been cold and stiff until just now, was now gently blooming like a spring flower.
“thank you.”
Sa Su-yeon said. Jeok Se-hwa slightly bowed his head in return.
“you’re welcome. “I just wanted to tell someone the answer I found.”
If it were just that, there wouldn’t have been any need to wait outside. Sa Su-yeon could clearly feel the kindness and favor contained in her words.
“There are really good people around you, Prince Sun.”
“I’m just an ordinary neighbor.”
Jeok Se-hwa smiled brightly.
