Chronicles of the Lazy Sovereign Novel - Chapter 95

Chapter 95

The man dressed in green at the front spoke with a slightly trembling voice.

“Are you really the Sword of the Righteous Hero?”

“I am Wei Jeong-han of the Wei family.”

“…How is the Sword of the Righteous Hero in this place?”

Why did someone who should be in Guangdong show up in this faraway place?

“That’s not something you need to know.”

Wei Jeong-han changed the subject, as it seemed a little embarrassing to him to say he was on his way to look for his son.

”

What will they do? Will they stand aside or will they feel with their bodies how sharp my sword is?

”

The Green Forest bandits withdrew in silence.

If it was really the Sword of the Righteous Hero, there was nothing to think about. It was only five. Even if it was fifty instead of five, they couldn’t handle it.

“Please come in.”

The Green Forest bandits retreated to the left and right.

“Hmm, you understand the words well.”

Wei Jeong-han grabbed and dropped the sword handle on his waist, snapping his tongue.

The view seemed to be that of someone disappointed that he could not stretch his hands and sent him chills in the back.

“Green Forest has no intention of enmity with Guangdong’s Wei family.”

“Well, I have thoughts about it.”

Wei Jeong-han looked at them with regret once and then climbed into the carriage.

Mo San-ah summarized the situation.

The Hao Clan also does not intend to create animosity with Green Forest. However, the mounter is quite…

“I understand.”

Mo San-ah bowed his head and climbed up, and the carriage began to pass slowly along the road.

As the carriage slowly drifted away, a man spoke.

“Are we going to let them go like this?”

“And then what?”

“The King of the Green Forest ordered us to block everyone along the way.”

“He did it.”

“Letting them go like this means disobeying the orders of the King of the Green Forest.”

“Okay.”

“But…”

”

Didn’t I say it was okay? Would you block the way even if the Emperor passed by, invoking the orders of the King of the Green Forest?

”

“…”

”

Don’t try to handle things too rigidly. The day will come when that strangles you. If someone from above presses you, just say “Sword of the Righteous Hero” and it will be enough.

”

“Understood.”

The Green Forest bandit stared at the faraway carriage.

“Think they’d really retire.”

Although I expected it, the result was shocking. Just hearing “Sword of the Righteous Hero”, all the bandits of the Green Forest withdrew.

‘Even after mentioning the name of the King of the Green Forest…’

When the Green Forest bandits invoked the name of the King of the Green Forest, they demonstrated their willingness never to negotiate. However, with the name of the Sword of the Righteous Hero alone, their will had been broken.

That meant that the name Sword of the Righteous Hero was synonymous with terror in the underworld, more than Mo San-ah knew.

I knew it from the documents, but there was a big difference between knowing something like mere information and feeling it with the skin, Mo San-ah realized it again.

But then…

“Why are you going so slowly?”

“Sang-ah, Yeon-ho will not die to be a little late.”

“If my precious son gets a single scratch, you’ll have to live without doing anything but that beloved martial arts practice of yours for the rest of your life, starting that same day.”

Isn’t that a good thing?

So don’t even think about coming home!

“The carriage is too slow!”

When Wei Jeong-han rose suddenly and shouted at the coachman, the night traveler said with a bitter smile.

We’re going as fast as we can right now. If we increase the speed, the horses won’t stand it. We’re controlling the speed with the plan to change horses in the first market we reach, so please understand a little.

“… so it says.”

“Then you should have worked things out quickly and come back, instead of lengthening them again.”

“I was wrong.”

Mo San-ah, thinking that Wei Jeong-han could soon reach Buddhahood, opened the window quietly and said quietly.

“Please try to increase the speed a little.”

“This is the best we can do.”

“Consider it as saving someone’s life.”

“…I will try my best.”

Upon learning of the situation — that they were going to meet a son who had been missing for five years — how could he not feel overwhelmed? Still, seeing him pressure people that way made Mo San-ah feel sorry for Wei Jeong-han.

“Sang-ah, I know that I have sinned and I can’t say anything, but isn’t this too hard? Isn’t it time for you to forgive me?

Mo San-ah found himself nodding unconsciously.

What’s wrong with someone who left a newborn baby at home and went on a martial arts trip for several years? Just do it like you did then.

Did something like that happen?

Mo San-ah’s mind quickly calculated. By comparing Wei Yan-ho’s age with Wei Jeong-han’s period of practice in martial arts, Mo San-ah’s gaze became cold.

“How could you do such a thing?”

Mo San-ah began to look at Wei Jeong-han as if she were a vermin.

“I even gave birth to the child alone.”

“My God!”

“Others say that when a woman gets pregnant, they bring her yellow peaches even in the middle of winter, but I… sniff!”

Mo San-ah concluded that there was no room for sympathy for Wei Jeong-han and opened the window again.

“Uncle.”

“Yes, miss?”

“We’re going at normal speed.”

“…yes.”

The night traveler, who had been listening to everything that was going on inside, snapped his tongue in silence.

Although he felt bad as such, if he showed sympathy here, he too would suffer a terrible fate.

Had there not been that anecdote of a married son who complained for three years that his father did not buy him what his pregnant wife wanted to eat, and when the father heard this, he said that he had been suffering for thirty years?

“That’s why you have to make things right.”

Wei Jeong-han’s sigh moved his hands.

Jin So-ah could understand what the phrase “speed of lightning” meant.

Just two days after Wei Yan-ho mentioned the issue, the place where the Black Spider Band had been was taking the form of a medical clinic.

This side is the medical room, and this side is the treatment room. The living room of the master is there! Fill the living room of the master room with things that only seem eye-catching to the naked eye!

And at the center of everything was Ha Dae-bung.

I didn’t understand how someone who had been the leader of a war camp was so talented, but Ha Dae-bung seemed like someone born to the position of general manager. Once the plan was drawn up, he calculated the budget at a dizzying speed and instantly recruited staff to install the medical clinic, supply it with drugs and start recruiting talent.

Hurry up! Don’t get straight while you work! You should straighten up after you move ten loads of medicine!

“…a demon.”

Ha Dae-bung was intermittently incording as he encouraged the workers. As he paid daily for his work, his determination to make sure that they did not rest for a moment and earned their wages was palpable.

– Well, he’s a miser.

Suddenly, people were curious about what was happening in the Black Spider Band and looked out their heads to look inside.

Those who saw the construction in full swing began to whisper.

“What’s going on?”

“It looks like someone new is moving into the building.”

“What about those gangs of villains?”

Those guys… they got crippled and kicked out a few days ago.

Were they not people that even the country could not touch? Who did something so admirable?

I don’t know either. More than one or two people saw them limp away, leaning on each other with broken pieces.

– So who uses this place now? Although those sinister guys used it, is there anyone who wants to move in?

“Well?”

People’s questions would soon be answered.

At the front door, a big sign began to hang.

“Sacred Hand Hall?”

The door was soon covered with a large cloth, but those who needed to see it had already seen it.

What does this mean? Is a medical clinic being set up?

“It’s good, but…”

People watched the sign covered in cloth with uneasiness.

It was good that a medical clinic was set up there, but since there were people so bad that they used the place, they were worried that those guys would come back and cause problems.

It was as if they were frozen standing next to a cruel person, and their honest feeling was that they could get entangled if they were going to seek treatment.

Then someone came out from inside.

“Oh?”

Seeing the middle-aged man in a dignified manner and dressed in silk clothes, everyone’s eyes opened.

Citizens! In two days we will celebrate the inauguration of the Holy Hand Medical Clinic with a banquet. Please come in group to celebrate the birth of the new clinic.

“Oh!”

A party.

While it was common to light firecrackers or distribute rice cakes during the opening, holding such a banquet was rare.

“Can we bring a lot of people?”

The middle-aged man nodded with an affable smile.

Please let more people know, we’ll prepare a lot of food, so don’t worry.

“Let’s do it.”

Ha Dae-bung smiled radiantly and turned to enter. “And as soon as he turned around, his expression changed.

Who told you to rest! I said we have to finish the construction for today, so don’t rest and work! You! Because patients have to climb those stairs, don’t make them high, get them down and together! How many times I have to tell you!

Ha Dae-bung’s complaints were endless.

Jin So-ah was watching Ha Dae-bung and nodding. Success was achieved by people like that.

“But…”

Young Master Wei… where did he go?

“The weather is so nice!”

Wei Yan-ho was lying on the roof tiles, receiving the scorching sun and patting himself in the belly.

Ha Dae-bung had told him not to walk around interfering with construction and simply to eat this, giving him dry khakis to chew. Receiving the cool breeze was like being in the sky.

Although Wei Yan-ho preferred to be in interior rooms rather than on tiles, he could not lock himself in one when everything was chaos. All rooms were undergoing renovation to receive patients.

“There really is nothing easy in this world.”

It was a fact that he felt renewed when he saw people working diligently. Then, someone placed a ladder against the tiles and went up.

“Huh?”

Ha Dae-bung popped his face above the tiles.

“It’s practically over.”

“That’s fast.”

There is less to do than expected. The building already exists, and as those men lived there, there is not much to repair. We just need to repair the areas through which the air currents enter and facilitate patient mobility.

Yeah, sure, but the preparations are good, aren’t they?

“Of course.”

Ha Dae-bung nodded with severe expression.

Depending on how the opening took place, people’s views of the medical clinic changed. Because there were several negative factors, they needed to pay close attention.

Ha Dae-bung clenched his fists.

Intuiting that this was the moment that would determine the fate of his life, Ha Dae-bung was burning in the determination to make the inauguration a success.

“Ah, it’s hot!”

Wei Yan-ho, who had rolled back once to distance himself from Ha Dae-bung, complained.

“Too much enthusiasm brings accidents.”

I’ll be careful with that.

“I should go now.”

Wei Yan-ho sighed.

He just wanted to lie down and rest half a day, but he didn’t know why there was so much to do.

“That’s the key point.”

“I got it.”

Wei Yan-ho rose slowly and came down from the tiles. Then he left the building and disappeared.

Ha Dae-bung watched the scene and clenched his fists.

Thus, carrying with it the expectations and concerns of many people, the day of the new inauguration of the Holy Hand Hall dawned.
