Episode 99. If a cow eats it, it becomes milk, and if a snake eats

it, it becomes poison.

“Why are you throwing this away?”

“You just said trash.”

“Ha, but… that’s right. It’s trash… Why did my body move?”

“That’s how it was hinted at. The ones who made this drug.”

“You said it was a drug before… but what the hell is a drug?”

“Drugs are drugs that literally paralyze.”

“I am not paralyzed.”

“Some part of the mind, not the body, is paralyzed.”

“That’s true, but without this medicine, I will struggle to death with a terrible headache and all sorts of pain.”

“That, too, is a suggestion planted in your subconscious.”

“It’s too realistic to just dismiss it as an allusion. Six months after taking this medicine, a headache starts without fail, and I feel anxious, indigestible, and start to feel pain all over my body.”

“Ah, you got caught by some really bad guys. They even mixed the withdrawal symptoms that occur when you don’t eat this garbage in your suggestion.”

The painter threw the white powder back on the ground.

Ok-ju bit her molars as she blankly watched the white powder flying in the air.

“Did you say five years?”

“yes.”

“Isn’t the time to eat this garbage getting shorter and shorter?”

“What if it gets shorter?”

“The addiction is getting worse. Don’t you want to take this medicine now?”

“I want to eat.”

“If I asked you to eat one of these, would you do anything in return?”

“yes yes.”

“It seems to be shorter as well. That’s withdrawal symptoms. You have to overcome that temptation to become normal. Of course, the hypnosis hanging in the unconscious must also be released.”

Ok-joo listened to the fireman’s words and pondered for a while.

“Is it possible for Congressman Hwabu to do all of that?”

“Overcoming withdrawal symptoms and solving hypnosis are all the will of the man. I can help, but you are the one who has to endure at the crucial moment.”

“If I don’t die, I will endure. So please heal me.”

“I have never tried this treatment and it takes a lot of time. Besides, I’m on my way to the imperial palace right now, so I can’t keep looking at you. I will teach you how to treat yourself.”

“Is it so easy that you can heal yourself if you know how?”

“It depends on your will… but it probably won’t be easy. Because it’s going to be half crazy. It’s convenient to have someone to help you at that time, but…”

“Senator!”

Ok-ju knelt down in front of the painter.

“Please save me. Would some one want to help me crazy? Don’t do that, I will follow you. Please heal me.”

“What about the inn?”

“The guesthouse will run well even without me.”

“Then it could be ruined.”

“If you fail, there is nothing you can do. In any case, the land and buildings are mine, so even if I fail, I can start over.”

“If that’s the case, maybe it’s possible. It won’t be easy to overcome, though.”

The painter knew how difficult it was to overcome withdrawal symptoms on his own. So I’m thinking about it a little bit…

“Please save me. I won’t be of much use. It will be more helpful than that bamboo tube when defeating those who want to assassinate you. Please do not throw me away.”

The fireman let out a sigh.

“all right. Let’s go to the ecliptic together. By the way, do you know what the bamboo tube I was holding a moment ago is?”

“yes. Wasn’t it a device that fired memorization?”

In an instant, not only the painter, but also Obo and Bun-ah’s eyes widened.

“How did you know that?”

“I just guessed from seeing them aim at me. I also saw several small holes drilled in the front of the bamboo barrel.”

“You have great eyesight. It seems that your military power is quite high, but if you escaped from that organization, don’t they chase you?”

“They will know that I am dead. Now I’m in disguise. You probably won’t recognize it when you wake up dead.”

“is it so? I’m glad you can’t figure it out. By the way, have you had lunch?”

“I haven’t eaten yet.”

“Then, let’s eat what we brought and move on.”

* * *

Even Ok-ju had lunch, and the party of Hwabu rode their horses again and set out on the road.

When the painter was in the castle, he handed out bamboo tubes to Obo and Buna and taught them how to use them.

The fireman had three more bamboo tubes in the bag, but he did not give them to Ok-ju.

The hwabu party did not move as fast as before, but leisurely looked ahead to see if there was an ambush.

After going for a while, Ok-ju suddenly came close to the fireman and said in a small voice.

“See those four people over there where the big tree fell?”

“yes.”

“They are the ones I was talking about.”

Hearing Ok-ju’s words, the painter hurriedly took out a bamboo tube and held it in his left hand.

When the painter took out the bamboo tube, Obo and Buna also took out the bamboo tube and held it in their hands.

In front of the fireman’s party, a large tree had fallen and blocked the road, and a wagon was stopped.

The four men were trying to clear a tree blocking the wagon.

The tree was so large that it was impossible to remove it by force, and it was being cut down with an ax and a saw.

“Are they really right?”

“I am sure. And isn’t it strange that there is such a big tree blocking the middle of the road? There hasn’t been a recent typhoon, and the other trees are fine.”

“It sounds award-winning. see and ah Didn’t you forget what I said earlier?”

“I will crouch down so that the hole in your barrel is not visible, and when Master gives a signal, I will shoot and run away.”

“You’re just going to run away.”

“yes.”

Obo, who had been running around mountains and fields since childhood, was as fast as a horse when it came to short distances, and Buna was slower than Obo, but still very nimble. The fireman at least put his mind at ease knowing that fact.

The painter continued to speak to Ok-ju.

“You’d better attack first.”

“The best is a pre-emptive strike.”

A tree blocked the road, so after a while, the fireman’s party got off their horses and walked closer to the four men.

“Eh-. It was hard to clean up, but there was someone passing by. Come and help me with this.”

“yes.”

As the firefighters approached, the four of them stopped what they were doing and turned around.

In their hands were axes, saws and large axes from which they cut trees.

What the hwabu party was holding was a crude-looking bamboo tube, and Ok-ju was wearing a sword, but deliberately did not take it out.

“Even if the tree fell down, it fell like that and completely blocked the road.”

“I mean.”

The men accepted Nucksal with Nucksal, probably thinking that the firefighters were not wary of them.

widely.

As if the fireman was sending a signal, he lightly snapped his fingers, and Obo and Buna fired the bamboo barrel. Dozens of needles were shot out at once.

The fireman manipulated the bamboo barrel only slightly later than the two of them.

Shush shush shush…..

“Aah, what is this?”

“I was noticing these bastards!”

The men reflexively raised their arms and covered their eyes the moment the needles were fired from the bamboo tube, and some even raised their swords and covered their faces at that moment.

It was a quick reaction that is hard for normal people to do.

“You guys run away!”

Obo and Buna shot a bamboo tube and ran away, and the two men who were hit in the direction they ran chased after them with an ax and a sword.

Then, Hwabu and Okju threw their swords at the remaining two.

* * *

Caang.

Since the bet had already spread to the four seas, the sword had power that could not be ignored. But the sword was blocked too easily.

Suddenly, the fireman’s eyes widened.

‘I thought I would cut the sword at once…’

The sword given by Pyochung was a sword that could cut metal if a bet was placed on it.

The painter noticed that the opponent had a sword as good as his own and could even use a bet.

Like the fireman, the eyes of the opponent who blocked the fireman’s sword were also young with a light of surprise.

‘I thought he was a member of the parliament, but I can see why the couple was murdered. It wasn’t that there was no helper!’

It was Sajung, who was a subordinate of Gyeongdeok of the City Council, who was fighting Hwabu.

Sajung was a B-level enforcer and was the strongest among the party.

Thinking of killing the fireman and helping the subordinate fighting Okju, Sajung explosively raised his strength and swung his sword at the fireman.

Caang Kang!

However, his attacks were lightly blocked and were getting blocked more easily as time went on.

‘How did this happen? My body is getting dull!’

Only then did Sajung realize that something was wrong with his body.

‘Could it be that there was poison in the saliva?’

“Whoa! The poison seems to be working now.”

At that time, words that confirmed the thoughts of the foursome flowed from the mouth of the fireman who was blocking the foursome’s attack. The fireman now had enough time to talk while blocking the attack.

“Do not sting!”

“that’s right. It’s poison.”

Shuaaaaah-!

The attack of the hwabu, which was only defensive, changed suddenly.

The four hurriedly retreated and blocked the fireman’s attack, but due to their dullness, they couldn’t even block it a few times and fell down covered in blood.

The fireman did not kill Sajung right away, but swung his sword and cut off the limb muscle.

“Keep it off! This dog thing…”

While Sajung wriggled like a bug, his subordinate who was fighting with Okju died with his heart pierced.

“Ouch!”

* * *

“These rats!”

“If I catch it, I will cut off the legs first.”

While Obo and Buna were in Yeongcheonseong, they learned martial arts from a fireman, but they were not good enough to deal with a trained killer. Because of this, all they could do was use the landmarks to run away without hesitation.

The men who had been chasing the two like wild boars who had been paid in advance delayed their running at some point, and later gave up and stopped chasing them.

When Obo and Buna stopped chasing them, they turned around and approached, carefully aiming their swords.

“Okay, come on. Heh heh….. It was hard to follow, but thank you for coming like that.”

A sigh of relief sighed at the corners of Obo and Buna’s lips as the men raised their axes and swords imposingly.

“The poison must have spread now.”

“Iknow, right. Shall I attack first?”

“No, I will attack first.”

Breaking love liquid-!

At that moment, Ok-ju threw a sword from a distance and hit the back of the man holding the sword and the side of the man holding the axe.

“Keugh!”

“Ah! my shit.”

As the two men stumbled, Obo and Buna rushed forward, cut the men’s thighs and chests, and retreated.

The two men seemed to be getting angry and rushed at Obo and Buna, but the speed was as slow as that of the turtle and they stumbled because they couldn’t keep their balance.

Obo and Buna saw it and felt confident and relieved.

So he rushed back and stabbed the two men with his sword, then retreated repeatedly.

In the end, the two men collapsed, and after a while, Ok-joo approached and cut the heads of the two bloody men.

“Are you okay, Master?”

After a while, Obo and Bun-ah approached and asked about the fireman’s well-being.

“Aren’t you guys really hurt?”

“I was not hurt because I was just running away.”

“If I hadn’t fired the paralyzing needle, I might have been caught.”

“It’s okay.”

The fireman approached the only one who was still alive.

“Are you their leader?”

“That’s right.”

Even though Sajung was already alive, he was not alive, so he had a desperate expression.

“Why did you set a trap to kill me?”

“Do you think I will tell you that?”

Sajung forced a smile with an expression distorted in pain.

“If you don’t tell me, I will kill you.”

“I think you’re already dead?”

food.

Momentarily, a sneer hung on the corner of the painter’s mouth.

“You will die, but you will have to go through all the terrible pain until your last breath is taken.”

The fireman inflicted several more wounds on Sajung’s body.

“Ahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh…”

Then, the poison that paralyzed my body faded, and a terrible pain that I had never experienced before came.

“You seem to have forgotten that I am a member of the council, but you are the one who gave up on dying gracefully.”

“Why did they try to kill Congressman Hwabu? I don’t have to bother with torture.”

Then Okju intervened.

“How does your uncle know?”

“The vicious organization I escaped from is the Taepyeonggyo, and they are the enforcers of the Taepyeonggyo.”

“Who are you?”

Sajung, who heard Okju’s words, reacted first.
