Sanbeom (霰汎)

It is a type of monster that appears with the first snow and leads the snow, and is one of the monsters that cannot be easily seen even in the bright moon of heaven.

There are numerous monsters in the Heavenly Moon. However, among those monsters, there are very few monsters that spit out inner sweets.

One of them, Sanbeom, appears around here.

Sanbeom, a giant snake-shaped monster, is a Needan, but its tail is quite valuable.

Its tail, which has the power to make snow fall, contains considerable power and is used as a material to make precious equipment.

Even when making Hyeonungap, Hong Seong-moon’s new product, doesn’t the tail of a mountain tiger go into it?

It just worked out well.

Ingredients for making Hyunwoon Gap

A piece of Nebula Iron, two pieces of Special Guardian Saint, two pieces of Iron Wigang, a bundle of Cheonjamsa, a skull of a two-headed tiger, and a tail of a mountain tiger.

Among them, Nebula Iron can be obtained by passing through the secret world, and the Two-Headed Tiger’s Skull can be obtained from the owner of the secret world who obtains the recipe.

You can ask the founder to make a special guardian saint, and although Cheolwigang and Cheonjamsa are a bit expensive, you can get them if you have the money.

In other words, as long as he obtains the tail of the mountain tiger, Hong Seong-moon can recreate the divine object.

Of course, if a mountain lion appears, word will spread and there will be people targeting it, but if it is scheduled to appear near here, it is a pretty advantageous situation for us.

So you can’t miss this opportunity.

“Are you also interested in Sanbeom?”

“It would be a lie if I said there isn’t one.”

“Haha. In that case, since Hongseongmun is nearby, it would be better to ask them for help.”

“Thank you so much for the advice.”

Not empty words, really.

There are unconditional benefits to participating in the Nodoin event, but I had no idea that they would take care of it like this.

When I said this with a smile, the old monk just smiled and bowed.

“How can we deal with the weight of the grace of just one meal? I just do everything I can.”

I feel like crying because I’m so thankful.

“Please feel free to stop by on your next trip. It’s okay if you don’t repay me like this.”

“Haha. If the Primordial Heavenly Father guides the way, another kite will arise. Infinite Buddha…”

He mumbles softly and leaves. I laughed as I was left alone in the backyard.

I feel like things are going well.

The next day after Nodoin left.

Postman Mundo sent me several letters.

One of them was Sayun’s.

I smiled and immediately opened the envelope.

This is a story I heard before coming to Hongseongmun. Human life is pain, and people just struggle to escape that pain.

When I heard that story, I really sympathized with it, but recently I don’t think so.

That living is not just painful.

There is happiness, joy, and pleasure.

A lot has happened recently.

I don’t know if you knew. hmm. Maybe you already knew that?

Through the secret scriptures in the letter the uncle sent me, I got one more clue to make Hyeonungap, Hong Seong-mun’s new item.

Is that why? On the day of Hong Seong-mun’s memorial service, Master was always having a hard time, but it didn’t seem that difficult that day.

Hehehe. You must have known that this would happen and sent the letter, right?

Everyone at Hongseongmoon thinks so.

I think they send us letters like this to let us know that people’s lives are not just gloomy, difficult, and painful.

These days, some of my sister-in-laws are making wild inferences about my uncle’s identity.

This is a letter from heaven sent by the first scholar of Hong Seong-moon, who ascended to the level of goodness and reached heaven, out of pity for us.

Or, he is a Jeondae Gigi with whom Jang Mun-in of Jeondae had a relationship while he was traveling in the martial arts world.

No, perhaps heaven takes pity on Hong Seong-moon and gives him help.

Opinions were so divided that no one could come up with any significant results.

But a man is a man.

No matter who you are, I just respect you and miss you.

ah. And something big happened not long ago. A group of fearsome saps attacked Seomhwachon, where Hongseongmun is located.

In fact, it is said that behind them there was a fearsome enemy called the ‘Ironblood Order’ that you mentioned earlier.

Was their target also Hong Seong-moon?

The fight was really fierce and dangerous.

But surprisingly, there was a lot of fighting and not a single person died.

I don’t know much about it, but my sister-in-law and the wise man who have experienced this kind of battle say it is a very surprising result.

It is said that there are many people who worked hard to achieve that result.

In particular, Seomhwachon’s guest housekeeper Yuwol, who helps Hong Seongmoon a lot like an uncle, is said to have put in a lot of effort.

lol. I think he’s a really great person like you.

Of course, Master suffered a lot in the process.

I think Master was really satisfied that no one was sacrificed.

And there is something else I want to tell you.

lol. It’s a little embarrassing, though. There was someone who asked to be friends with me.

Who is it?

This is Chae-ryeon from Moonwoljeong.

He is a much greater person than me.

Background, martial arts skills, and beauty…as well as character and wisdom.

Still, he asked me to be his friend… so I didn’t know how to respond.

I asked to be friends the next time we meet… but will I really be able to be friends with that person?

Of course, I am also a disciple of the master of swords, and a proud disciple of Hong Seongmun…

I’m a little worried.

Hehehe. But unlike Chaeryeon Sojeo, I have an uncle, right? Because I have a man who cares for me… I guess he can’t be inferior to Sojeo Chae-ryeon, right?

Next time we meet, I’ll have to approach you first.

And, I want to get one step closer to you too.

When can I meet you?

P.s.

I think the letter you sent me has a subtle scent of plum blossoms.

I am happy to see that you are using the sachet I sent you well.

I’m sending it again because I think you’ve almost run out of it.

ah. And the teacher asked if it would be okay to send a separate letter to the uncle. What do you think?

Was there a lot he wanted to say? After re-reading the contents of the rather long letter, I smiled and looked at the box. What was inside the box was a sachet made of cloth that had been newly purchased at Hongseongmun some time ago.

This makes two sachets!

I carefully took the sealed sachet, placed it in the safe, and put the pipe in my mouth.

Hmm… Anyway, I had no idea that Sayun and Chae-ryeon would meet like this and become friends.

In Moonlight Moon, Chae-ryun and Say-yoon almost seemed like rivals, but why are they becoming friends?

Of course, I’m not saying Chae-ryeon is a bad person, but…

ah. Is it perhaps because of the relationship between Hongryun and Chaejin?

Anyway, having friends isn’t a bad thing.

Especially since he is a trustworthy and good person.

And Geomseong said he wanted to send me a letter…

Well, it’s almost time for Geomseong to send it himself.

Even if she sends it, there isn’t really a problem, so just say so when you reply later.

I folded the letter neatly and put it in the safe.

By the way, should I tell you about Sanbeom in Seochal’s reply?

I picked up the brush, thought about it, and then shook my head.

Let me just say this directly.

-smart.

“Please come in.”

The door opened and Chaejin came in. Looking at her smiling face, I understand why she came.

“Hey… you know?”

“I know.”

It’s time to practice.

Is it because of the Sima Army that attacked Xianhua Village before?

Training became a little more difficult. Since you never know when something might happen, there was no reason to reject Chaejin’s suggestion to prepare.

Only after learning for a long time and even learning Geumnasu was I able to free myself from her.

“But what is that walking method?”

“An old monk taught me yesterday.”

While Chae was practicing Tai Chi, he unfolded the Gunwangbo. When Chaejin asked me if I thought that was strange, I said, wiping away the beads of sweat.

Unlike me, who was puzzled, she seemed relaxed. She grabbed me and sat me down on a long chair in the backyard, leaning down slightly to look at me.

“This is my first time seeing this method. What is it?”

“It’s called Gunwangbo.”

It was when I was trying to explain to Chaejin, who was curious.

“Hello!”

A lively, familiar voice was heard. When I looked there, I saw Sayoon and him.

“Long text? What’s going on?”

Geomseong was standing there with a unique, solemn expression.

It’s an unexpected combination. Sayun comes down to the village often, but Geomseong rarely comes to the guest house like this?

As Chapter 1 was over and there was nothing special to discuss, I thought there would be no need to come, so I was puzzled, and Sayoon took a piece of paper out of her arms.

“It’s an errand for Ryu Hyeon’s sister-in-law.”

“Aha. Then the Sword Saint…?”

“I came along to teach you how to practice Sayoon’s footwork. Seeing the fight last time, it seemed like Sayun could be considered a decent warrior.”

I also heard from Hongryeon from time to time that Sayun’s growth is quite remarkable.

I think it’s probably because I gained experience through a big battle last time…

From my perspective, there is nothing bad.

“So? What is the walking technique called gunwangbo?”

“Ah. That’s it.”

I handed over the list Sayoon gave me to the servant. While the servant who received it was packing up the items, Chaejin asked, and Geomseong and Sayoon looked at me as if they were interested.

“This happened yesterday.”

I told Nodoin, who was there yesterday, the story of how I received the secret salary of the Prince.

He also explained Gunwangbo to the best of my knowledge. Geomseong, who was silent for a moment, calmly opened his mouth.

“Do you plan to practice Gunwangbo properly?”

“Yes. Well, they say it’s a good walking technique…”

Because it was a pretty good walking technique in Heavenly Moon. Is there a problem?

As I looked, Geomseong shook his head and smiled.

“Good idea. Although it may be difficult to learn, Gunwangbo itself is a very good walking technique. I’m sure it will suit you well. If there’s something you don’t know, I’ll give you some advice. And…”

“And?”

“Tomorrow. Can you keep your promise?”

It’s a promise.

You were asking if you could go out on the street with me, right?

“Of course.”
