Chapter 342: 342
Like this.
Tea water from the steaming teapot filled the cup halfway.
Hyun Jong held out the teacup to Hyun Dang, an old man.
"Well."
Hyun Dang brought the teacup to his mouth. The scent of the tea picking my nose was so subtle and soft.
Hyun Dang, who takes a sip, nods loudly.
"You've improved your driving skills."
"Do you remember the taste of my old car?"
"Of course. I remember. The taste of your tea was one of the things I've never forgotten in my life."
Hyun Jong smiles slightly.
"You must have had a lot of regrets."
"…Yes, I guess so."
It's a soft conversation.
But the faces of those watching the conversation were not at all smooth.
the place of a man of letters
Hyun Sang and Hyun Young sat left and right with Hyun Jong sitting at the top.
In front of the two elders, Unam and Ungum were standing facing the inside.
On the other side of the boss' seat, Hyun Dang turned the kabu seat, and the people he brought were seated.
a delicate confrontation
And the silence that follows.
The subtle scent was soft, but the air filling the room was far from soft.
Hyun Dang opens his mouth first to see if the situation is too satisfying.
"You don't even get old."
"When there's a good thing, people get old and young."
"Yeah, I guess so. It's a good thing."
Hyun Dang looks at Hyun Jong and says,
"I'm relieved to see that it suits me well. I was actually quite worried."
"Ha!"
As soon as I finished talking, Hyun Young snorted.
Hyun Jong looked at me with a slight scolding, so I closed my mouth, but if I had left it as it was, I would have cursed.
"Thank you for your concern."
"No, I should be grateful for leading Hwasan so well."
Hyun Young looked at Hyun Dang with a very unhappy face. Even Hyun Sang coughed in vain, looking uncomfortable.
"So……."
Hyun Jong opens his mouth as if he is going to change the atmosphere.
"What brings you here?"
Hyun Dang stared silently at Hyun Jong for a long time.
"You've changed a lot, too."
"……."
"You weren't this direct to ask before. I've always used to allude to changing words."
"It's time to stay even after three changes in the mountains and rivers. Is there any way that a person wouldn't change?"
"Yeah, that's right. But I wanted you to remain the same."
Hyun Jong didn't answer back.
It was something that didn't need to be answered. And it wasn't him who had to answer now, it was Hyun Dang.
"I think you should answer my question."
"Yes, I should."
Hyun Dang salivated slightly and looked back at the people of Hwasan.
"30 years ago. I walked out of Hwasan on my own feet."
"……."
"Because I thought there was no future in Hwasan. No, more precisely, because I thought my power could not revive the collapsing Hwasan."
"You did."
"But as I got older, I changed my mind."
Hyun Dang smiled warmly.
"There was nothing I could do about Hwasan sitting on one side of my mind. I thought I'd forget about it over time, but my inner was just getting bigger day by day."
Hyun Young smirked outright.
"After 30 years of patience, it must not have been that big in the first place!""……Hyun Young아."
"Yes, I know. I know."
Hyun Young closed his mouth when Hyun Jong scolded him calmly. However, the uncomfortable feeling still lingered when he saw his lips sticking out.
Hyun Dang said calmly.
"Yes, what can I say? We're the ones who left Hwasan anyway. It's something you have to endure when you're criticized, when you're criticized."
Hyun Jong slightly frowned.
"You haven't answered my question yet."
"…I tried to forget Hwasan in my life. I've got my own foundation, and it's not that hard to live. But a single empty heart wasn't filled. Meanwhile, I heard the name of Hwasan all the way to where I live."
Hyun Sang bites his lips slightly.
'I've heard the author say…….'
Hyun Jong gave everything to save Hwasan while they were taking the foundation and living comfortably.
If you think about it at all, you can't dare say that in front of Hyun Jong.
"The moment I heard that Hassan was making his name known to the world again, I couldn't control the remorse I had buried. That's why they came all the way to Hwasan with the same people and their descendants."
Hyun Jong nodded slowly.
"I see what you mean. But it still doesn't answer."
"…What kind of answer did you mean?"
"What is the death penalty going to do in Hwasan?"
Hyun Dang stared at Hyun Jong and opened his mouth.
"Can't you do anything?"
"……."
"I am a sinner. As I saw, I can't even step on the ground of Hwasan. What would I wish for like that? It's enough to just breathe in Hwasan and be Hwasan's manure."
"Well."
"The people who came here together are all people who have their own abilities and have made their lives. It must be helpful to Hwasan. So give us a chance to be the ghost of Hwasan. I want to live for Hwasan to break my old body."
Hyun Jong sighed low.
"The death penalty……."
"That's some kind of ruse!"
At that moment, Hyun Young stood up and pointed his finger at him.
"When he was about to go to hell, he wouldn't stick his nose out, but now what? Wasan's ghost? Do you have a conscience?"
"Hyun Young, calm down."
"Do I look like I'm going to calm down now, death penalty! Aren't those horse species' tricks too clear? You've been ignoring him for 30 years and now you're trying to get some bean powder from him!"
Hyun Young snorted and shouted.
"There's nothing more to hear! Get those bastards out of here now!"
"Hyun Young아!"
It was then.
"I'm sorry, but I have a long storyteller. I feel the same way as a priest this time."
"……."
Hyun Sang stepped out with a stiff face.
"There's no reason to think. They're the ones who left Hwasan on their own. How do you get them to step on Hawsan's land? Ghosts? Ghosts like that are not necessary for Hwasan."
"……."
"You have to send it back."
Hyun Jong slightly frowned and closed his eyes.
Hyun Dang opened his mouth.
"I fully understand how you feel. To be executed……."
"How dare you say death penalty!""Hyun Young아!"
"No! Long story short! That's the same thing I'm talking about! How can a man who has left be the death penalty of a long man?"
"It worked."
Hyun Jong shook his hand and dried it.
Hyun Young, who couldn't have known that the move was an expression of Hyun Jong's uncomfortable mind, eventually closed his mouth with a groan.
Hyun Jong said in a heavy voice.
"……I see what you mean. But it's so embarrassing that it's not a decision to make here."
"Yeah, I guess so."
"I'll give you a place to stay, so you can rest. You must be tired of climbing the mountain."
"Let's do that."
Hyun Dang smiled brightly.
Hyun Jong turned his head and looked at Unam.
"Of course."
"Yes, a long writer."
"Give them a green market and make sure they get their meals ready."
"……I see."
Unam rose from the seat.
"I'd like to serve you."
"Yeah."
When Hyun Dang and others got up from their seats, Unam left the room without saying a word.
After Unam and the crowd leave, Hyun Dang, who remains in the room until the end, turns his head slightly and looks at Hyun Jong.
"I'm sorry to have to show up before you again.
"……."
"But I want you to know my true feelings about Hwasan."
Hyun Jong nodded his head without saying anything.
Hyun Dang left the room with a subtle smile.
"Long story short!"
No sooner had he left the room than Hyun Young spoke up.
"Wait."
"One!"
"Don't you want me to wait?"
"Hmph!"
Hyun Jong sighed and opened his mouth.
"I'm sorry, but could you leave? I have something to say separately from the elders."
"Yes, a long writer."
Unja boats filling the room got up and went outside. Only wise men, Hyun Jong, touched the teacup and opened his mouth.
"What do you think?"
"There's nothing to think about! It's a sham!"
Hyun Young screams.
"Hwasan's reputation has increased, and now he's going to get something to eat. How dare they shamelessly bring their faces into Hwasan?"
"I feel the same way, Jang Moon-in."
Hyun Sang, who never shared his opinion with Hyun Young, took sides this time.
"I don't think I came here with good intentions. They are not property-free, considering that they are not bad-looking. Isn't that why Hwasan's disciples turned a blind eye to grass roots and now they're in."
"And!"
Hyun Young gritted his teeth and added.
"Even if I came here with good intentions, it's the same. Those are the ones who turned a blind eye to Hwasan. Reflect? Reflect? You can't understand everything just by reflecting on yourself!"
Hyun Jong sighed.
"I don't think you're too wrong."
"If you do, kick them out right now! A long story."
"Let's wait a little while for that."
"Why?"
Hyun Jong shakes his head.
"Forgot? Now, Hwasan can't help but care about the eyes of others as he did in the past."
"……."
"If they leave Hwasan like this, the nurses will say that he beat up old adults."
"Does that make any sense?"
"That doesn't make any sense. But where did the nurses go after the truth?"
"……."
"We can't throw food at people who are bent on trying to undermine him. Let's feed them well and treat them well for at least a few days."
Hyun Young sighs deeply.
"I know what you mean, but I don't think it's going to end so simply. Would it be so easy for those who came with intentions to step down?""I'll try the kid."
Hyun Jong said in a subdued voice. Then he sighed.
I thought you said it was a luxury.'
There must be a devil in good things. But I never imagined this would happen.
'That's frustrating.'
The sigh of Hyun Jong filled the room.
"…the death penalty."
"Hm?"
"Isn't Hyun Jong tougher than you think?"
Hyun Dang smiled brightly at Hyun Pop's words.
"I see."
"I thought I'd lie flat on my stomach whenever the death penalty came, but when I saw the weak man sitting at the head of the table and condescending, my stomach was twisted. The position was not the death penalty!"
"Ugh. Keep your voice down."
Hyun Dang gives a hint.
"This is Hwasan."
"Isn't that where only children are left?"
"That's true."
Hyun Dang looked back at Hwasan with a twisted smile. As if all this would fall into his hands in no time.
"You pretend to be strong, but you can't hide your true nature. Hyun Jong will eventually accept us. Soon more people will come to Hwasan and pressure Hyun Jong, so there's no way."
"That's right, death penalty."
"Hwasan is lucky enough to get his good students out of the downfall, but a weak man like Hyun Jong is a long writer, so he can't get back his past movies. So we'll have to help."
"Of course."
Hyun Dang rolled up the corners of his mouth.
"You'd better bow your head in moderation until the time is ripe. First of all, recovering one's identity is the first thing. So don't let everyone act rashly."
"Yes."
"Yeah, let's go."
Hyun Dang smiled at the back of Unam walking ahead from a distance.
Of course I was expecting that they wouldn't come out in favor. But that won't last very long either.
'I'm gonna have to get my seat back.'
For him.
And for Hwasan.
The old man burst out laughing.
Everything will go back to order.
Yeah, as it turns out.
