Chapter 36 – Chapter 3 – Ask for a Drink

Fortunately, Sojeo Shin and I were able to make an appointment with the merchants on time.

In the meantime, I wasn’t completely better, but I was able to move my body.

“Collock Coke…”

“What the hell were the two of you doing and playing, so that one of them is dying like that?”

“Yeah, man. That’s not what you’re asking.”

“..It’s not like that.”

He still coughed a little, but not enough to make him unable to move.

“But sojeo… You don’t have to go this far…”

“Be still.”

It looked like it was stuck in the corner of the carriage, almost curled up in a blanket, so I was worried because it didn’t look good on the outside.

“Even though he looks rough, he really cares.”

“It’s a good time, it’s a good time…”

The merchants didn’t show any discomfort at all, and rather, they even laughed when they saw this side from time to time.

‘Honestly, it’s a funny look…’

Fortune-tellers have a sense of mystery that is the lifeblood of them, but they were not ignorant.

However, when I sat up straight, I was frequently blocked by Shin So-jeo’s determined attitude, as if not even a needle would go through.

‘Thank you for taking care of me, but…’

I don’t think it’s a bit excessive though.

.
.
.

In the end, through proper negotiations, they were able to get out of the ridiculous look.

If you feel sick again, go back like before.

“Are you so concerned about my health?”

‘I decided to go together, so I’m worried about my health.’

Thank you for caring about me, but I thought I was a little overzealous, so I tried to preface it, but

“I’ve nursed you for two days, won’t you mind?”

“..Sorry.”

I didn’t have anything to say.

“Come to think of it, if I go to Anhui and my body gets into trouble again, I’ll have to spend another few days in a room with just the two of us, so it won’t be good for either of us.”

“Oh.”

“My thoughts were short. Let’s take care of our bodies as much as possible.”

“Ah, no… Come to think of it, the human body can get sick even if it suddenly tries to heal quickly…”

“No. It was my fault for refusing the favor you cared about the most. There is no need for Shin So-jeo to apologize.”

It wasn’t to an excessive level like before, but I wrapped myself in the blanket again.

“Ugh…”

I wondered if I had made a mistake in my words, and she was covering her head, but somehow I didn’t think I should talk to her about the subject any more.

“Ah. Wouldn’t you like to see a fortune telling that you have so much time?”

“…If it’s a dot, haven’t you seen it before?”

“The point I saw at that time was the overall fortune, and if you narrow the scope properly, you can see other points.

“..So detailed?”

“Do you have a problem?”

“..No. The Gods of Heaven and Earth must have a will.”

I was afraid that the guru’s characteristic nagging would start at the moment, but fortunately it didn’t seem like that.

‘As expected, Shin Soja is different from other Taoists.’

Isn’t it right to use the sky to make money?

If you use the heavenly spirit too much, chaos will come to the world

It’s my ability that I’ve worked hard for, but why do people not use it?

It’s an ability I gained after 10 years of hard work under my eccentric master.

At least, the subject, the sky, is so capricious that it’s hard to write properly.

“Then, do you have any questions about Soju? Shall I take a look at how long you live?”

“Now, wait a minute…”

The result came out before I even tried to look at it properly.

No, it didn’t come out right.

“..Where did you make a mistake? Why is it impossible to measure..”

Haha… Sue, you’re more interested in the other side than life span.”

“No, I’ve never come out like this before, but if I try it one more time, it will come out properly, so just once..”

-Thud!

– Awesome!

I heard the wood plank cracking right next to my face.

“Didn’t you say it was okay?”

“Ah, I see.”

I didn’t have the confidence to make eye contact for some reason, so I laid my eyes down.

– Suk seuk seuk

“Then what are you curious about?”

I tried to refresh the atmosphere by fiddling with his wooden board with my hands that had nowhere to go.

“..As I said, there’s someone I’m looking for.”

“Uh… That’s right. He’s in Anhui right now…”

“No. I heard the information and I’m heading to Anhui, but I’m not sure. I haven’t met one or two similar people in 10 years.”

“Ah..”

Come to think of it, she still doesn’t know in detail what’s going on with her.

She just thinks she’s a childhood benefactor in that she’s been looking for that person to pay her debts for 10 years, but she doesn’t know exactly what’s going on between them.

“Can I see if he is the person I was looking for?”

“No… Rather than that.”

She pursed her lips to see what she was about to say.

“..No. Just ask that.”

She quietly bit her lip.

“I’ll try my best. I hope the Heavenly and Earthly Gods will tell you in detail.”

Of course, here Heaven directly says, ‘That person is that person.’ It is seldom said that

I’ll give you an answer that’s as twisted as that personality.

Now I have to go through a lot of hard work to interpret it.

– Tak Tak Tak Tak

“Hey… It’s been a while since I felt this.”

As she has done hundreds of times, she proficiently stretched her wooden plank and began to sing the heavenly gi.

-Saaa

The contents written in the records of the sky flowed into my head.

Different from human language. The esoteric contents that dare not be expressed in human language flowed into my head.

“Okay. That’s it.”

But it’s been over 10 years since I did this.

It was a job so familiar that I could do it even while lying down.

– Rumble

..Of course, but we don’t know how our capricious sky will react, so let’s keep the minimum courtesy!

“..How did it come out?”

“Originally, reading the heavenly gi is everything, but it didn’t come out so that I could answer yes or no…”

Smiled at her slightly stiff expression, and continued her words.

“I think I can give you some good news.”

“Really?”

“Yes. [An expected meeting will come soon.] Came out.”

“Oh oh..”

“They say that the outcome of that meeting is up to you.”

“Okay. I’ll refer to it.”

Contrary to the reaction mixed with exclamation, the expression seemed a little stiff, but I thought that might be the case.

This is the person I’ve been looking for for 10 years. Honestly, if it were me, I would have already given up.

In fact, it’s not like you don’t even know if you’re alive or dead.

Even the midfield is not usually wide, and the world itself is quite rough, so there seems to be a tendency to be like that.

“Congratulations. Ten years of hard work will pay off.”

“Haha.. That’s right..”

Although her expression and voice were still somewhat rigid, I congratulated her innocently.

As she hopes that her expected meeting will work out.

.
.
.

Of course, the drinking party broke out again at night.

“By the way, weren’t you sick? By the way, can I have a drink?”

“For me, alcohol is medicine.”

“Young people don’t seem to be alone, so you should drink in moderation. Then, is it just an instant to go to people?”

“It’s just a moment…”

..Yes.

It takes only a moment for people to go.

“So why not enjoy it more?”

“Oh, I won’t tell you.”

She lifted the glass again and threw it down her throat in one motion.

I could feel the bitter taste of alcohol spreading through my body.

“No one knows the future of a person. If I don’t drink here thinking about the distant future and suddenly die in an accident tomorrow, I’ll remember the drink I didn’t drink even after I die.”

“Heh heh. That’s an extreme example. And no one knows the future. What are you saying?”

“Well, if you’re curious about the future, bring a silver coin and visit us. It’s a fixed price.”

After the conversation, I poured myself another drink.

– Sluruk

Looking into the future is not always a good thing.

Because sometimes there are futures you don’t want to know.

Of course, not being able to see my future isn’t a good thing.

“Is there a seat next to you?”

“Sour sozer?”

While I was lost in thought for a while, Sojeo Shin came right next to me.

“You can sit here.”

“Excuse me for a minute.”

The fact that his voice is strangely subdued must have been a lot of trouble.

It was because I had been silently immersed in a state of concern since I gave you my divination earlier.

“How have you calmed down?”

“It seems to have happened.”

“Drinking calms me down a bit. Would you like a drink?”

It was a pun intended to cheer her up a little.

Because I knew she was a guru who wouldn’t touch her drink.

“..Can I ask for a drink?”

“…Yes?”

“..It’s because my thoughts are a bit complicated. Do me a favor.”

“Uhh.. I see..”

Embarrassed by her unexpected reaction, she filled her half of the glass and handed it to her.

“..Can the guru drink alcohol?”

“It was originally forbidden, but actually, there are quite a lot of disciples who eat knowledge.

“Haha, then what are you going to do if you can’t get to the top?”

“..Well. I have too many lingering attachments to the world…”

When I first saw her, she was a woman who seemed a little stronger and more solid, but she looked dangerous when I saw her like this.

“Well, I’m not a warrior, so I can’t say anything, but there seems to be a lot of good things in the world.”

“Puhyuk. Is that what a person who came out of the mountain would say?”

“.. Come to think of it, that’s it.”

Watching her red face reflect the light of the campfire

She was new, but I thought it was very pretty.

Master was still on top.
