Jin Jang-myeong is a blunt girl with no charm.

This is because aegyo is something that is learned rather than something that is innate.

Only by accumulating experience of getting what you want by showing cuteness as a child can it function as a function that can be used when needed when you grow up.

Jin Jang-myeong suffered from arrhythmia from a young age.

Because I watched in real time as the fortunes of the family declined because of me, I just knew how to be patient and endure it.

I’ve never even thought of trying to be cowardly and coquettish.

“I’m going to sleep.”

“I have said this many times, but the laws of the land are strict.”

“There is no national law like that.”

“In my universe? now. It’s time for the little one to go and sleep. Even though I’m already short, I’m at least a little taller.”

“Now, Jang Myeong-nim is going to sleep.”

Cheong widened his eyes at that.

No, this kid dares to call himself a full name?

Of course, I always joke around with Jang Myeong.

But really, this was nothing more than a dry pun made with his characteristic sullen expression.

Jin Jang-myeong himself was immediately red with shame.

Cheong looked at that red face and eventually gave an embarrassed smile as if there was nothing he could do.

He only keeps his distance from Jang Myeong using his age as an excuse, so when he gets so upset, he even starts to tremble at his cuteness, which he never used to do.

Me, me. They say they are so embarrassed that they want to die.

“okay. What can I do if I sleep together for a day or so? But, it must be cold, right?”

Jin Jangmyeong opened his eyes wide at him.

“Uh, did it work?”

“I don’t normally forgive people who call themselves using my name, but they accept it because I think it’s cute.”

For Jin Jang-myeong, it was a big step forward.

I think it would be nice to be cute sometimes.

“Now, come here.”

“huh.”

But, as expected. cold!

Jin Jang-myeong was also unprepared for the cold of winter.

Tang Nan-ah’s only goal was not to see the blue, but to feel that dreamy, weighty softness again, so she quickly gave up in the face of the cold and ran away.

But Jin Jang-myeong endured.

The trembling coming from the side was unusual, so Cheong burst into laughter.

“If it’s cold, go to your house and sleep.”

“Oh, I’m not dancing.”

“Can you stop chatting your teeth and tell me?”

“Eun chidgdg.”

Jin Jangmyeong gritted his teeth and answered.

Cheong made a sound of wind escaping.

“Anyway, being the size of a sack of shit is stubborn.”

It was when Jin Jang-myeong was about to protest.

I was startled by a hand suddenly hugging me, and when I opened my eyes, the world suddenly started spinning dizzyingly.

Cheong hugged Jin Jang-myeong, rolled him to the edge of the blanket, grabbed the cloth, and then rolled him over again to the other side.

“How are you feeling? “I sleep like this every day these days.”

Jin Jang-myeong was startled by his pounding heart and calmly stood at attention in front of his arms.

What happened?

But it’s dark so I can’t see anything.

The blankets that are tight on all sides are stuffy, so all I can do is wiggle my hands and feet. I can’t even move them.

How long has it been like that?

Cheong’s voice was heard from above the top of his head.

“hmm. This reminds me of the old days. But why is the little one still the same size?”

“Previous? ah.”

Jin Jangmyeong suddenly recalled an old memory.

Then in the tunnel.

When I thought about it, it was as dark as it was back then and all around was tight, making it difficult to move.

But there was also something different from then.

Instead of the smell that came from not being able to wash each other, there was just the faint scent of perfume (ancient ancient beauty soap).

There wasn’t a single part of my body that wasn’t covered in dirt, so there was no discomfort that was running through my body, and there was no cold that was seeping through my back and calves.

The body, which had been stiff due to exertion, became limp like a wet towel and leaned against Cheong.

Although it was not at all the indescribably strange atmosphere between the priests, sisters, and ladies that Jin Jang-myeong had expected.

Still, it’s so comfortable.

I don’t think I’ve ever felt this comfortable.

I felt sorry in front of my parents, so my home was always an uncomfortable place with a strong, drug-smelling smell, and although the Shinnyeomun family was friendly, I lived in a group without my own room, so there were days when I couldn’t relax.

“hey. kid. Are you okay with your life as a priest? “Aren’t you just harassing someone?”

“… … ? “Who doesn’t usually bother you?”

“Who is bullying Ewha Womans University’s youngest child? The priests would all say she was pretty. “If you harassed the children of the third generation because of poor distribution, they would have been harassed.”

“is not it.”

“Is that so? “Then that’s it.”

Just from what Cheong saw, there were more than one disciple holding Jin Jang-myeong in their arms and resting their chins on the top of his head, so it was just something he did.

It was like the logic of Korean fathers awkwardly asking bluntly if things were going well when they were together for a long time.

Of course, that’s what Cheong thought.

Since I only had one father, it was unknown whether other fathers did the same.

(Choi Lyon might be upset if he finds out)

“I wanted to go with you this time.”

Jin Jang-myeong made a regretful voice.

They said that if you reach the first level, you and Cheong will let you go see a nearby river lake, but this time, you are rejected and they say no.

But that’s right, it’s an event where men from famous families in the central region flock to this event.

Children of prestigious families are basically handsome.

The daughters-in-law of a prestigious family are women who have mastered at least one fairy ball and are fair-white, and the children born from them are beautiful, and then the beautiful daughter will also be a beautiful mother who has also mastered the fairy ball… … .

So, if the Fairy Princess was built up with layers of blood, and now it is a noble family, I could already tell that it was truly a sacrifice from its appearance.

It was impossible to send a defenseless nineteen-year-old girl to such a dangerous place.

“You said it was next. “If there’s a place you want to go nearby, think about it.”

“Then, North Sea.”

Thanks to Seolga from Cheongdo, I know that the North Sea is far away.

“This time, if you climax by the time I return.”

“Tch. Then Haenamdo. “Jusando”

“I don’t know where it is, but it’s an island, right? “Let’s go on a pilgrimage outside the central plains, north, south, east and west?”

“then… … ”

After chatting like this for a long time without any nutrients, Jinjangmyeong suddenly made a quiet sound.

Cheong smiled and accepted the sleep that he had been forcefully pushing away.

—-

Normally, large events held in Jungwon are scheduled for a very generous amount of time.

Because customers also came from very, very far away.

Gaebong, where the martial arts competition is held, is located in the northeast of Henan Province, and the Shenyeomun Gate is located in the westernmost corner of Hubei Province.

It’s not close.

However, in the spirit of the central government, it was enough to brag that they were neighbors because they were neighboring administrative provinces.

Besides, the road must be very well paved.

Take the Yangtze River, get off at Wuhan, follow the main road to the north, pass through Shinyang, Yeonam, and Heochang, stop at Jeongju, and turn around to open in a few days.

These cities have existed since ancient times in the Romance of the Three Kingdoms, when Liu Bei, Cao Cao, and Sima Yi fought for the world.

Even in those primitive times, the roads were properly trampled, so they are flat, well-drained, and spacious, so even with a cheap carriage, the ride is not bad.

So, complaining that Cheong was excited for no reason, he finally left the priest’s gate only after the winter was over and the transcription was fully completed.

““Have a nice trip!””

As usual, leaving behind the fierce send-off of the disciples of the priestess, Cheong has already begun his fifth year on the road.

It’s already been five years.

Time flies so fast.

Cheong was once again filled with strange feelings about him.

However, the time that has passed is something that passes by in an instant, even if it is the most boring and longest time in life.

“Have a nice trip to you too, Congressman!”

“I have to go home after finishing… … ”

Dang Nan-ah, who had been stubborn about going to the Moorim competition together anyway, was a bonus.

Still, I smiled regretfully, as if the feeling of being violently sent off wasn’t bad.

Then, he stopped by Jagwi, the city in front of the priestess’ gate, and went to look for Gyeon Po-hee, whom he had left there.

Jagwi, Seolga Sanghoe.

Every time the priestess came out to purchase supplies, the size gradually grew, and now it has become a fully-fledged manor.

Indeed, it seems that the best intellect in the neighborhood is also well-versed in commercial affairs.

The Qing was very convinced, but in reality, this was just like the Heavenly Demon Church’s central business enterprise.

Since the capital came from the religion and the goods handled were in contact with the religion’s trade lines, Seolga was almost no different from the owner of the pants that lent his name.

This is the terrifying economic invasion of the Heavenly Demon Church towards the central plains… … Instead, it was the result of Choi Lyon looting the secret ship of the Heavenly Demon God Church while accumulating gold and trying to buy Cheong something delicious.

The actual owner of the store was Choi Lyon.

Cheong, who waved at the employees of the company whose faces were already familiar to the guards at the front gate, strode inside.

Then, the beautiful Seol Ga, who was giving instructions to the porters in the main office, looked at the office and raised his eyebrows.

Gyeon Po-hee’s limited vocabulary described her as looking like an older sister, but looking at her in person, it makes sense.

She was a beautiful woman with clear facial features who looked more like handsome than beautiful, and she even covered her forehead with a bandana, making her a beautiful woman dressed as a man in the eyes of Cheong.

“Wow, Seolga guy. “You get prettier every time I see you.”

“It’s a curse word as soon as I see it.”

“What about him? I’m doing great?”

Cheong looked around.

I’m sure the last time I came here, I had a crazy lover.

Then Seolga spoke calmly.

“We broke up. No matter how much she thought about it, she said she didn’t want to have a husband prettier than her. “She can’t live her whole life being told that she’s an uglier bitch than her husband.”

“Oh my. cheer up. “It wasn’t meant to be.”

“I wonder if I will gain strength because I have regrets about nothing. “There are many women who like me.”

I’m saying this sincerely, so it’s a bit unlucky.

However, when it comes to good women, Cheong is not the only one, so I just say it’s okay.

“Well, if that’s the case with Seolga, then that’s probably the case. I’m going to the opening. “Where is your sister-in-law?”

“If you are going to come, you should let me know in advance so that she can prepare. If they come to you right away and tell you to hand it over. Do I have to play, eat, and wait for you every day? “I went to work.”

“Wouldn’t it be nice to play and eat? “When are you coming?”

“I guess that’s the same for you. “The old man sent someone as soon as you entered the city, so he’ll be back soon.”

Cheong narrowed his eyes at that.

“What, was someone following you? Do you know what city you’re in?”

“Isn’t that companion so noticeable?”

Cheongya may seem like an ordinary ugly woman wearing cotton, but surprisingly, Tang Nan-ah next to her is actually a beautiful woman who is considered one of the five great beauties of Jungwon.

Even if he behaves like a boy in the prime of his life, pretending not to glance at the breasts of passing women.

Even though I saw her every day at the Shinnyeomun, we rarely made eye contact.

It was because he seemed to think that people’s eyes were on the chest, so he was busy looking for it.

Anyway, even so, her appearance alone shows that she is an ultra-beautiful woman with a fierce look.

“what. why. “The gaze makes me feel bad for some reason.”

“no. “It’s okay if you like it.”

”… … ?“

“Oh, the one working over there, the chest.”

At the same time, Tangnan’s head turned.

“uh? where? where?”

“You trained your chest muscles well.”

Tang Nana suddenly opened her eyes and glared.

Cheong sighed deeply.

It wasn’t okay from the beginning, but I don’t think he was this kind of kid.

How could a child be like this?

I was already worried about this trip.

Gyeon Po-hee is naturally a weak child, so I can guide her well, but even though she is an Oriental medicine doctor, why is she becoming a weak child?

It was a time when Cheong, the only person with common sense, had a heavy burden on his shoulders.
