Warrior Grandpa and Supreme Granddaughter

Episode 67: I have to leave secretly (2)

There are several ways to get from Shaanxi to Henan.

Yujinsan chose to take a boat from the northern port of Jangan to Maengjin Port near Luoyang.

The purpose was to minimize the movement and hide Kang-ho’s attention.

Jin-san Yu and his granddaughter were holding hands and each had a bundle tied to their small backs.

“Wow~”

The two were now passing through the gates of Jangan. It took 10 days to travel from Hohyeon, where Paedomun Gate is located, to arrive in less than a day.

Yu Seol could not close his mouth.

When have you ever been able to visit a big city like this in your lifetime? It was natural to be amazed.

The main road leading to the palace. And the magnificent buildings stretched out endlessly in rows.

“Isn’t it fascinating?”

“Yeah, look at that!”

Where the granddaughter’s index finger pointed, a huge statue stood tall.

The statue of a general with a sword strapped to his waist was so majestic that it seemed to pierce the clouds.

The surrounding area was crowded with people as if it were a tourist attraction.

It is rare for a statue of someone to be erected in a large city. This was only possible through a direct decree from the emperor.

This meant that the owner of the statue had great achievements and was favored by the emperor.

“General Somu. “He was a war hero who saved his country.”

“Awesome! Grandpa, do you want to go over there and play with me?”

Looking at the look in his eyes, it seemed like he was talking about using a light ball to jump across the roof of the palace.

Yu Jin-san was also happy to see his granddaughter excited.

However, in large cities where government troops were stationed, the use of martial arts by unauthorized persons was prohibited.

“Do you see those guys in armor over there?”

“Yes.”

“If you use martial arts here, you will be caught. “After being tied up, you get hit on the buttocks with a stick.”

“….”

Yoo Seol’s face becomes sullen.

The child looked as if he had lost the whole world.

My heart became heavy, but Yu Jin-san couldn’t give in either.

“It’s not just here. “You must never use martial arts in front of people until you board the ship and arrive at your destination.”

“…Even outside the castle?”

Yu Jin-san nodded and had a very serious expression.

“huh. “The rumor that we left Shaanxi must not spread throughout Jianghu.”

“Why?”

“The world is very wide. There’s even a bounty on us here, but the people there probably don’t know much about the Yin-Yang Pair. So let’s move without anyone knowing.”

“Can’t I know?”

“Grandpa has nothing to do with it, but Seol has to live a new life there. So, always be careful until you arrive.”

The order to arrest the Murim League was limited to Shaanxi.

The martial people of Hanam would not even know of the existence of the yin-yang twin monsters. There was no need to restrict his movement by holding his tail.

One day, his reputation might spread throughout Gangho, but that was a matter to think about later.

Did he become depressed after hearing that he wouldn’t be able to use martial arts for a while?

Yu Seol lowered his head and made no reply.

“….”

Yu Jin-san shook his head to lighten his sullen granddaughter’s mood.

He cleared his throat for a moment and muttered quietly.

“This is probably the place with the most food in Shaanxi, right? “I heard it’s full of delicacies I’ve never tried before.”

“…really?”

I couldn’t help but laugh at the sight of my granddaughter slowly turning her head.

Still, he seemed curious.

Yu Jin-san tried hard to hold back his laughter and stared intently in the direction of the market.

“Have you ever heard of five-flower-jeo-meok (五和猪果肉)?”

“No, I haven’t heard of it.”

Of course you don’t know. Where would an eight-year-old child have heard of Jangan’s food?

Eugene-san smiled inwardly as his granddaughter showed interest.

“They say the pig’s paws are boiled in five kinds of fragrant fruits and then fried in oil. Add seasoning and garnish with thinly sliced vegetables. It’s crispy on the outside and juicy and juicy on the inside. When the soft texture and light seasoning come together, it’s like…”

Yoo Seol, who swallowed dry saliva, tugged on her grandfather’s hand before she could finish hearing the story.

“Let’s go quickly!”

“I want to eat?”

The granddaughter whined like a puppy that was tired of pooping.

“Ugh… quickly.”

Jinsan Yu couldn’t hold back his laughter.

“haha. “Okay, let’s go.”

* * *

One hour later.

The two finished eating at Jangan Castle and came out of the castle again.

Yoo Seol patted his stomach and looked very satisfied.

“it was tasty.”

Looking at his granddaughter’s bulging stomach, Jin-san Yu’s heart also felt full.

“okay. “When you arrive in Hanam, there are a lot of things to see and you can try new foods.”

“really? “I can’t wait to go.”

Jinsan Yu was secretly imitating his granddaughter’s speaking style.

The purpose was to learn it so that I could hide my identity when necessary.

“We will arrive at the ferry port in a little while. “You’ve never been on a boat before, right?”

“huh. It sounds fun… But why does your grandfather talk like that?”

“We have to use the same tone of voice as Seol so people won’t be suspicious. That’s why I’m practicing.”

“Really? Then follow me. We’ll arrive at the ferry port in a little while~. like this.”

Eugene San hesitated for a moment. It was bound to be awkward to be taught by my young granddaughter.

Feeling embarrassed for some reason, he cleared his throat and tried again.

“Hmm. “We will arrive at the ferry port in a little while.”

“no. Gently… repeat again. It will arrive soon~”

“It will arrive soon~”

“Strange!”

Getting scolded by my granddaughter. I felt sad inside, but there is nothing free on the path to learning.

But even after trying several more times, it wasn’t easy.

If you practice, it will eventually become natural.

“I guess it won’t work right now. “When you arrive at the ferry port, if someone talks to you, answer on your own.”

“okay.”

“And you might get noticed, so don’t say grandfather and pretend to be brother and sister until we get there.”

The two chatted a lot and by the time they had digested their food, they arrived at the ferry overlooking the Yellow River.

Ships departing from here pass through several ferry ports to reach Maengjin Port.

At that moment, a ship was in a hurry to prepare for departure.

It was a Biryeo-class civilian ship that traveled to and from the ports of large cities, with a high three-story pavilion in the center of the ship.

Because it is a large ship, the fare may be a bit expensive, but the convenience was so good that we were lucky.

It seemed like boarding had started a little while ago.

“You have to get on early to get a good seat. Let’s go quickly.”

“Yes. “Please hold my hand.”

After paying the ferry fare, Yu Jin-san and her granddaughter held hands and waited in line.

The estimated travel time from Jangan to Maengjin Port was 10 days.

It is not easy to see two children traveling on a boat on such a long distance trip.

It was natural to stimulate the curiosity of those around him.

just as expected.

“Is it just you two? “It looks like they are brother and sister.”

When I looked back, I saw a middle-aged man carrying a bundle around his shoulder.

He was a person with a warm appearance, wearing light clothing.

A fairly solid physique and a weak bet. There were slight signs of learning martial arts, but it was still at a third-rate level.

Yu Jin-san gave his granddaughter a look as if telling her to behave appropriately.

“yes. We are going to Hanam. “What about you?”

Why are you telling me the destination without even asking? Also, are you asking about his movements that you have no interest in? It was a bit absurd, but I decided to wait and see.

“If it’s Hanam, I’ll go all the way to Maengjin Port. “He happened to be going there too.”

“Hi-Hi. “Then do you want to come with us?”

Jinsan Yu, who was watching from the side, flinched. Seeking a companion without realizing it? There was no time to stop it.

I was shocked, but since the water had already been spilled, I had no choice but to think positively.

‘I don’t know if it’s a good thing. If two children move, it will attract the attention of those around them. It might be more natural to bury that guy.’

At that time, the middle-aged man nodded his head willingly and answered.

“It’s good! “Seeing as you’re a little taller, I guess you’re my younger brother next to me?”

Yu Seol smiled brightly and placed her arm on the grandfather’s shoulder.

“yes that’s right. “Isn’t my little brother cute?”

“I know. “That guy looks really cool.”

“But my younger brother doesn’t really talk much. “I’m embarrassed because the way I speak is strange.”

The granddaughter’s acting skills were not average.

But he never thought he would end up as a younger sibling with a speech impediment.

It was absurd to see the middle-aged man looking down at him with a pitiful expression.

“Well… what about your parents?”

“Everyone died except for the two of us.”

“Oh my… it looks like you have relatives in Hanam. I don’t know what the story is, but just follow him until we arrive. “It’s dangerous for two children to go around.”

“Thank you~”

After a while, the three of them boarded the ship and moved to the bow deck.

Yu Seol was so amazed by the water of the Yellow River that he was seeing it for the first time, so he couldn’t take his eyes off the deck.

From behind, a middle-aged man muttered as he placed his hands on Jinsan Yu and Seol Yoo’s shoulders.

“It’s been a long time since I left my hometown, so I can’t remember my parents’ faces. I ran away from home and practiced martial arts here for ten years. Now that I have achieved my goal, I will confidently return to Hanam, where my family is from.”

Even after practicing martial arts for ten years, you can’t get beyond the third-rate level. I couldn’t believe it at all.

Jin-san Yu, who happened to be bored, asked quietly.

“Where did you learn martial arts?”

“hmm. I heard you’re not good at speaking, but it’s not that bad. You have to keep saying that and make it a habit. Otherwise, speaking becomes awkward.”

“yes.”

“Your uncle’s writings are the best in the world. “I don’t know about you, but I’m a first-class literati known even in Moorim.”

It was a sect that Yujinsan did not remember.

I have never seen a proper place for a door with a grandiose name.

In all likelihood, it’s a neighborhood bar that doesn’t even have a name. There were countless such sects in each region, so it was no wonder.

Since those schools did not even possess proper mental techniques, let alone martial arts, it was natural that there would be a limit to their achievements no matter how long they trained.

At that time, rain suddenly started falling from the sky.

Patter! Dudududuak-!!

“Oh my, it’s raining. “Let’s go into the cabin quickly.”

The pavilion installed in the center of the ship has a three-story structure and becomes narrower as it goes up. The upper floor was probably a special room for government officials or the wealthy.

Space for general passengers to rest was limited to the lower floor. It was very cramped for a crowd of nearly a hundred people to share.

At that time, the middle-aged man took out a small blanket from the bundle he was carrying on his shoulder.

“Let’s quickly wipe away the rainwater first. Otherwise…”

He suddenly widened his eyes in surprise and trailed off.

She and the boy were soaked, but the girl’s clothes were intact. It didn’t look like a single drop of rain had fallen on his face.

“What’s wrong, mister?”

Yoo Seol blinked his rabbit-like eyes as if he didn’t understand what was happening.

Only Yu Jin-san knew the reason. The unique anti-repelling properties of Hwa-gyeong’s body may have repelled the rainwater.

At that moment, Jinsan Yu’s hand moved quickly and grabbed something.

It was a piece of board that someone had used and thrown away.

“I stopped the rain.”

The middle-aged man finally saw the board he was holding in his hand, and a smile appeared on his face.

“haha! Isn’t that true too? For a moment I thought I saw a ghost or something. “It’s nice to see you taking good care of your sister.”

Hearing the word “ghost,” Yoo Seol asked with a curious expression.

“Are there really ghosts in the world?”

“Then of course. Well, since we have a lot of time and quiet, let me tell you a story. Come on, sit down and watch.”

Jinsan Yu and Seol Yoo spent time sitting across from the middle-aged man.

He introduced his name as Dong-gu.

There is nothing more boring than living on the waters of the Yellow River. He was simple-minded and well-spoken, and was a great companion to relieve boredom.

So the three of them spent two days together on the boat without anything special happening.

Because it rained often, we spent a lot of time in the cabin.

“mister. Why is it raining so much here?”

Dong-gu looked at Yoo Seol squatting in front of him as if it was cute.

“It’s because it’s a dry and humid rainy season. “It is a season when it rains a lot.”

“But does your house have a lot of family?”

Yu Seol’s questions were endless.

However, Dong-gu accepted everything without showing his displeasure even once.

Yu Jin-san, who didn’t hate him, also sat quietly, leaning back with his eyes closed.

“then! I have a lot of family. Our family is a well-known family in the neighborhood. Now I can go back with confidence. If it were me, my father wouldn’t approve…”

He couldn’t finish his sentence.

This is because the entire hull shook as if the ship had hit something.

Kuuuuung-!!

It became very noisy outside the cabin.

The sound of the sailors running around made me feel like something was bothering me.

After a while, someone shouted from outside.

“An enemy has appeared!!”

When the passengers in the cabin heard his voice, their faces became thoughtful.

“What should I do?”

“We are outnumbered…”

“Then are we all going to die?”

Although the Yellow River’s enemy group is smaller in size and number than the Yangtze River’s, it is known to be very fast and cunning.

The reason they are strong is because they are elites who survived until the end despite the Central Army’s surveillance network that stretched from Guanzhong to the midfield.

“Don’t worry, guys. Just stay right behind you.”

Dong-gu hid Yujin-san and Yoo Seol behind his back.

And soon after, the cabin door burst open.

Quang-!!
