Cheonma wants to live quietly - Chapter 104
Translator: NovelMultiverse | Editor: NovelMultiverse
[T/N: Hello! I’ve decided to translate Cho Seo-ran’s title from Medicine King to Medicine Queen for now, basing off on the original text. However, should there be any changes in the foreseeable future, I’ll make sure to leave another note. Thank you!]
“Are you the one they call Confucius?” The beautiful woman asked with her eyes twinkling.
Instead of answering, Byeok Tae-san once again looked around the people gathered at the front door. She had a strong medicinal smell.
“Chunyakbang?”
At this, the woman smiled brightly. “You know, too.”
She looked at her tone of voice and expression as if she took it for granted that she knew herself.
“Okay, get out of here.”
At the words of Byeok Tae-san, the woman, Cho Seo-ran, frowned slightly. “Isn’t that too rude?”
“It is rude to block the way to my house.”
At this, Cho Seo-ran bit her lip slightly before standing aside. Then, the men that were with her also opened the way.
Byeok Tae-san hurried past them and slammed the door. The door was obviously locked, but it opened gently. At that moment, the man who had put the message inside was running eagerly. As soon as he found the Tae-san, he nodded.
“Confucius, have you been there?”
When Byeok Tae-san nodded, he headed out and began to speak. “I told the general. Eat it as a snack. I will take you to the waiting room.”
Cho Seo-ran quickly erased the expression on her face as she entered the gold closet, the other seven following closely behind.
“If you wait in the reception room, the general will come soon.” Cho Seo-ran smiled lightly and bowed her head slightly for her answer. When they arrived at the waiting room, they each sat down and rested.
While coming here from Cheon Yakbang, she felt very tired because of all the traveling they had done. At least, for a few days, it seemed like there was time to recover.
After a while, the Commander-in-chief arrived. After exchanging a ceremonial greeting, the Commander-in-Chief looked at Cho Seo-ran and said: “Jang Joo is on a business trip, so it will be three days before I can see you. I heard that you all came to see the truth and the strangeness, is that right?”
At this, Cho Seo-ran nodded. “Right.”
The commander-in-chief frowned at this. “If that is the case, then can you guide me to where you are right now?”
Cho Seo-ran smiled brightly. “It was what I was hoping for.”
“Alright, you can come this way.” The general hurriedly left the reception room with Cho Seo-ran and her party.
Still, Cheon Chushinui checked every day that no one came from the drugstore and urged him to come. He wanted to take them to Cheon Chushinui in order to get rid of the annoyance.
In any case, the general hurried as much as possible and took the guests from the Cheon Yakbang, right to the garden where Cheon Chushinui and Ilchimkai were located.
* * *
Cheon Chushinui and Ilchimkai were engrossed in the secrets he received from Byeok Tae-san.
He had already read it a few times. The more he read, the newer it became. And the more he read, the more he questioned.
It was also the martial arts of Shihyeol and Demon. Its depth and subtlety were undeniably indescribable.
“Slowly, the time has come for Confucius to stop by…”
At the murmuring of Cheon Chushinui, the other felt devastated.
“I stopped by to give this today, does it make sense to stop by again? Think more if you want to live. Do you not know our Confucius that much?”
“Your brother doesn’t know Confucius, or how attentive he is. Perhaps he will come to teach us what we do not know.”
“You’re betting?”
As the chimpanzee smiled and spoke, Cheon Chushinui smirked. “Brother, have you not changed that habit yet? I ended up like this while betting, would you like for me to bet again?”
“Okay, what’s the harm?”
Then, just as he was about to say that his underwear was going to be ripped off, the door leading to the next garden swung open. The eyes of the two men turned towards it at the same time, their hearts pounding like crazy.
This was because they both knew that Byeok Tae-san was coming.
‘If he hadn’t said that nonsense, he’d have been beaten up.’
As the monster was sweeping his chest, the general came in through the open door.
“Oh, surprise.”
As Cheon Chushinui grumbled, the general smiled brightly and spoke. “The visitor whom God has been waiting for so long has arrived.”
“Customer?”
Cho Seo-ran came in from behind the general, seven other men trailing behind her.
“Uh? The Medicine Queen?”
Cheon Chushinui looked at Ilchimkai and Cho Seo-ran alternately at the words of Ilchimkai. He didn’t know that the Queen of Medicine would come in person.
Hearing the commotion, two lawmakers from the Cheon Yakbang, who were stirring pots at the edge of the garden, ran to her with tears in her eyes.
“I’m Moon Juni!” The two rushed to each other and knelt down in front of Cho Seo-ran.
“Heh heh heh! I really wanted to see you!”
Cho Seo-ran was really bewildered by the behavior of the two Mundos.
People who belonged to Cheon Yakbang were basically excellent members of the legislature. And the legislator was very proud of himself. It was by no means uncommon for such lawmakers to bow down like that.
“Come on, calm down and get up.”
At this, the two lawmakers stood up at Cho Seo-ran’s words. And just as she was about to open her mouth, Cheon Chushinui and Ilchimkai approached her.
“Do you remember me?”
Cho Seo-ran smiled brightly. “Of course. Mysterious old man, haven’t you had anything special?”
“It’s me… It’s a bit too much to say that it wasn’t a big deal. My life was turned upside down because I met this guy.”
Saying that, Ilchimkai put his hand on Cheon Chushinui’s shoulder who was next to him. “This person is a god of heaven.”
Cheon Chushinui smiled kindly in turn. Perhaps, if someone who knew him had seen this, his eyes would have gotten bigger.
“Nice to meet you. I didn’t know he would meet the medicine queen like this.”
“I am also pleased to meet you. It’s amazing anyway. The fact that you two are here together. Besides, here…” Cho Seo-ran looked around her. The sight of such a large garden full of medicinal herbs was not easily seen even in the Cheon Yakbang.
At this, the scoundrel frowned at those words.
“There are a lot of drugs to make. by the way… I didn’t know you would come in person. It must be a busy time. Did you join hands with the Moorimmaeng?”
“Yes. That’s how it happened.”
Cho Seo-ran’s expression darkened slightly. “Looking at your expression, something seems to have happened. There was no way the Moorimmaeng persecuted me…”
“It’s not a big deal. just… Things got a little difficult and I just needed help.”
“Did things get difficult? No way.”
The Cheon Yakbang was a sect that had no place in the world to follow when it came to medicine. From elixirs to trivial geumchang and salve, Cheonyakbang medicine was superior to medicines compared to those that were made anywhere else.
Because of this, there was no problem with sales. And so, how could one possibly believe that things were getting worse?
Cho Seo-ran put on a puzzled expression. “It happened because things were going to get messed up. There were problems with supply and demand of medicinal herbs, payment was delayed, and it became a bit difficult as these things got tangled up.”
One could say this calmly now, but at the time, it had been really difficult. Who would have known that Cheon Yakbang would suffer from financial problems in the foreseeable future?
However, once the flow of money began to falter, it seldom returned to normal. Moreover, if something had to be solved, something happened, and the problem became more and more serious.
In the end, Cho Seo-ran had broken a rule that the Cheon Yakbang had kept for a long time and asked the Moorimmaeng for help. “Still, I didn’t come under the control of the Moorim League at all. We just promised to cooperate with each other.”[Read this novel and other amazing translated novels from the original source at the “Novel Multiverse dot com” website @ novelmultiverse.com]
Cho Seo-ran’s expression was very heavy and dark the entire time he said those words. It seemed that holding hands with the Moorimmaeng had not gone smoothly.
“Well, let’s do our best to do that.”
“Yes. Thank you for your concern.”
After saying that, Cho Seo-ran looked up at both Ilchimkai and Cheon Chushinui, all while her eyes lit up. “Did you two decide to put your enemies on top of the golden house?”
Ilchimkai shook his head. “No.”
“Is that so? I thought it couldn’t be either. After all, it makes me realize once again that rumors are just rumors.”.
Chushinui began to reply. “We didn’t have any enemy, we just decided to serve our Confucius.”
“Yes?”
“It’s not just me, it’s this guy too.”
Cho Seo-ran looked at the two of them with a confused expression. “Did you two decide to enshrine Confucius Byeok Tae-san? Why?”
Cheon Chushinui paused, his gaze set afar. “What… Well, I guess it’s fate.”
The scoundrel looked like a madman at that kind of Cheon Chushinui. “Please do that for me. Damn, I’m ashamed of it all.”
Cho Seo-ran covered her mouth and smiled slightly. “You still do.”
Cheon Chushinui looked at Ilchimkai with an absurd expression.
“Brother, did you even curse in front of that Sojour?”
“It’s not cursing, it’s just like Chuimsae… I mean, you’re being too sensitive!”
“No, what kind of term even is Chuimsae?”
Suddenly, Ilchimkai clenched his fist. This made Cheon Chushinui look at the door, stuttering almost falters.
“Uh? Confucius?” Byeok Tae-san could be seen entering the garden. The man knew that there were a lot of people in the garden and was about to go back, but it was too late. Everyone’s eyes were fixed on him.
So, instead, Byeok Tae-san ignored all of that and approached Ilchimkai and Cheon Chushinui.
“Have you read it?”
“Hey, of course not.”
To Cheon Chushinui’s answer, Ilchimkai added. “I read it three times.”
The two wanted to ask Byeok Tae-san, but they found that they couldn’t because there were too many people around. Different electric tones flowed into their ears. It was a solution to the part that the two did not understand, thereby ending up with them stuck.
Each of them had a different martial art, and each of them had a different solution to these said arts. Ilchimkai and Cheon Chushinui looked at each other in amazement.
‘How the hell is this possible? No, I haven’t asked where the blockage is yet!’
‘Isn’t it right that we’re sending two different things to the two of us at the same time? Does this make sense?’
Electric tones pierced into their ears. – Concentrate.
Cheon Chushinui and Ilchimkai were startled and focused on Byeok Tae-san’s words. Byeok Tae-san’s brief explanation ended up clearing the blockage.
As if it were a lie, the martial arts I read hard today spread out in my head. When all the explanations were finished, Ilchimkai looked at Byeok Tae-san with wonder and asked, “How the hell did you know that I was blocked?”
Byeok Tae-san laughed out loud. “It’s obvious.”
He didn’t know how many martial arts he had learned and how many martial arts he had studied.
In addition to this, the Gwiryung and Hwang Dan-gong, which had been passed on to the two of them, were martial arts that Byeok Tae-san had studied together with the Shihyeol Horse and the Maui.
The gazes of Ilchimkai and Cheon Chushinui did not fall from Byeok Tae-san. In addition to this, the people around them looked at them in amazement.
It was still difficult to clearly understand what the people around him were talking about in the conversation. However, looking at the context, one could only guess that they were exchanging the story of martial arts when basing off of the whole tone.
When the conversation was roughly finished, Cheon Chushinui poked the robber in the side. When Ilchimkai felt this, his expression morphed into one of frustration.
Where Cheon Chushinui pointed to with a beckoning gesture, Cho Seo-ran and the people of Cheon Yakbang stood still for a few seconds.
Only then did he realize what he meant, and cautiously stepped forward. “Confucius, these are the people who came from the Cheon Yakbang. This child here is the ark of the thousand medicines of the time.”
At this, Cho Seo-ran quickly greeted Byeok Tae-san. “I am Cho Seo-ran.”
Byeok Tae-san then proceeded to ask Ilchimkai, all without looking at Seo-ran. “Anyone you know?”
Ilchimkai then replied with a puzzled expression. “He’s a kid I had a little relationship with a long time ago.”
“Were you from the Cheon Yakbang?”
“No. There was a time when I received great help from the previous Ark of Heaven.”
“Yes?” Byeok Tae-san then looked at Cho Seo-ran.
Cho Seo-ran was somewhat tense and stiffened slightly. She swallowed gulped before she stared at him straight.
“Well, let’s go and have a good time.” Byeok Tae-san said matter-of-factly and turned around. The expressions of Cheon Chushinui and Ilchimkai brightened slightly.
On the other hand, Cho Seo-ran had a bewildered expression, and the people of Cheon Yakbang had a slightly wrinkled one. This was because they didn’t know Byeok Tae-san very well, so they seemed to be ignoring Cho Seo-ran.
“That was enough. Very positive.” Cho Seo-ran looked blankly at Ilchimkai’s words.
Cheon Chushinui then proceeded to give out an ambiguous explanation. “My Confucius, by nature, is not good at expressing his feelings and feelings, so it can sometimes be misunderstood, but I think that is a very good response. So don’t worry, let’s talk about development and future-oriented.”
He didn’t know what to say not to worry about, but everyone focused on Cheon Chushinui’s words as a progressive and future-oriented conversation. “Now, why not try to maintain a good relationship with the lawmakers by making medicines and doing research together? Ah, brother. Please tell me something, too.”
He nodded with a shaky expression on his face. “There’s a drug that we’re developing, how about sharing opinions while making it together?”
After hearing their words, Cho Seo-ran and the people of the Cheon Yakbang looked at the two lawmakers who had sent the letter to them in the first place.
The expressions on the faces of the two members proved to be very awkward. However, there was nothing strange about it. “Is that so? You must have been making medicine here, didn’t you?” When Cho Seo-ran looked around and gave permission, Cheon Chushinui’s expression shifted.
“Come on, today we have to celebrate a meeting like this, so let’s drink with a crooked nose. When you drink alcohol, the words come out and you get to know each other quickly. How are you all?”
Of course, no one objected. However, the expressions of the two members of the original lawmakers darkened a little, but they bowed their heads as soon as their eyes met with Cheon Chushinui’s.
“Okay, then let’s go. I will guide you to a very good place.”
Cho Seo-ran then asked Cheon Chushinui. “If… Can’t Confucius-sama go with you?”
Both Cheon and Ilchimkai nodded at once. “Yes? Our Confucius? That, well… ”
Cho Seo-ran smiled bashfully and said to Ilchimkai. “Go and say something. Confucius-sama Byeok, it’s good to get to know each other too, right? Actually, I have something to say to Confucius as well.”
Cheon Chushinui and Ilchimkai looked at each other, then nodded shakily.
“What… I’ll try to say it, but it’s better not to lean on it.”
After a while, as they were walking, both Ilchimkai and Cheon Chushinui found that they couldn’t take their eyes off of Byeok Tae-san the whole way to the drinking party.
“Hey, shouldn’t we have to check if that person is really our Confucius?” At Ilchimkai’s prodding, Cheon Chushinui couldn’t help but feel the same incredulity.[Read this novel and other amazing translated novels from the original source at the “Novel Multiverse dot com” website @ novelmultiverse.com]
