How To Live as a Civil Servant in Murim

“ Do you know why I sent them out?”

“I do not know.”

“It’s still not enough!”

Zhuge Yu clicked his tongue in disapproval. Yeon Woo-hyuk was deeply engrossed in reflecting on what mistakes he had made.

jump!

Investigator Chun Ki opened the closet of the main house and started searching inside. Among them, he quickly took out what looked like an elixir and threw it at Yeon Woo-hyuk.

“Get it quickly.”

“……”

Yeon Woo-hyuk was the most astonished of all the things he experienced today.

“Oh, old man. This is… isn’t this stealing?”

From noble mtl dot com

Yeon Woo-hyeok, barely awake, cried out belatedly.

Then, Jegal-woo looked at Yeon Woo-hyeok with contempt for the third miserable bastard in Moorim.

“Guy Kyu gave you a lot of compliments, so he rated you highly, but you’re still really immature!”

‘no. Was it Jegalgyu?’

Yeon Woo-hyuk was surprised to realize who had praised him.

I suddenly felt a little sorry for cursing at Paeng Juseong for being lighthearted.

“Did Jegal hyung praise me?”

“okay. The talent you showed in the wild was quite good.”

“I was lucky.”

“You can’t fool a cold investigator with luck. But like I said, it’s still immature! In Moorim, don’t forget that a moment’s gap can cost you your life.”

“Old man, please teach me.”

Yeon Woo-hyuk said politely.

The opponent was so confident that I started to get a little confused.

‘Did you promise anything with the judge?’

No wonder the judge said, ‘hahahaha! Detective Cheongi, when I die, please search through my main house and take it all with me,’ I thought.

Otherwise, that confidence could not be explained.

Zhuge Yu thought for a moment and then nodded.

“okay. you should know too Someday, you will become famous as a military commander in Moorim. Since this is a relationship, I will explain.”

“?”

Yeon Woo-hyeok wanted to say, ‘I’m Podu’, but he didn’t dare to ask because Jegal-woo’s temper seemed so dirty.

“Do you know what to keep in mind when lending wisdom to the military in Murim?”

“…It’s not just about clarifying the truth, isn’t it that we have to think about the future?”

Moorim’s work did not end simply by revealing the truth. In a murder case, if someone said openly that he had killed someone, the person involved could pick up a sword and engage in sword fighting.

A wise person thought about these things and solved the problem.

However, Zhuge Yu blatantly clicked his tongue.

“That’s not the thing you need to be most careful about.”

“I do not know.”

“The most important thing to be careful as a military is to get the rewards of work!”

“……”

While Yeon Woo-hyeok was shocked, Jegal-woo continued to speak.

“The majority of Murim people are ignorant mubu, so they don’t know the value of wisdom. Even if he cringes when necessary, when the work is over, he tries to cut his wages somehow.”

There was deep resentment in the voice of the Cheon Ki-soo.

It was a deep resentment that only a person who has been active as a member of Murim for a long time can have.

“Never give the answer first. Got it! Be sure to get the reward first and then tell the answer. If the other party breaks the promise, you must retaliate regardless of the means and methods! Moorim people will say that if you give them a chance, you have to pay such a high price for just a little brain!”

Jegalu shouted loudly. Yeon Woo-hyuk, overwhelmed by that, nodded his head involuntarily.

“Now that you know, help the search. I will see your skill.”

“Oh, old man. I’m sorry, but I’m not sure what this has to do with what you just said.”

“what? Are you really Podu who deceived the cold investigator?”

Zhuge Yu put on an expression that made him hard to believe that he had to explain this.

Of course, Yeon Woo-hyuk was dumbfounded.

What does ‘receive an advance payment for work’ have to do with robbing the judge’s house?

“Look! Why am I here?”

“The old judge sent a letter…”

“right. the judge asked this is one But when I came, the judge was dead! Who settled the grievance about the judge’s death?”

“The old man of the Cheongi investigation…”

“You and I solved it. These are the two. Finally, the judge spoke lies in letters. So these are three.”

“What is one, two, three?”

“The price of the wages, the price of the wages! Like this stupid bastard! I owed you once because you called me, and you owed me twice because you used my skills. I owe you three times because you saved my face for the last time!”

“…?”

Yeon Woo-hyuk, who had been thinking about it, realized it belatedly and shouted.

“Couldn’t it be that you’re getting the reward that the old judge should give you!?”

“I finally learned how to use my hair! okay. I just need to know! Get it quickly!”

Zhuge Yu cleared the wrinkles between his brows and nodded.

It was frustrating because Moorim’s juniors, whom he liked, were talking nonsense, but he seemed to have finally understood.

I came by invitation, let go of the grievous death, and endured the loss of face, so now it was time to get the price I deserved.

“Shouldn’t you… talk to your relatives?”

Yeon Woo-hyuk cautiously asked a question.

He thought that if he wanted to receive a reward, he should first tell the story to his remaining relatives.

Zhuge Yu sighed. It was because I couldn’t believe I was having such a low-level conversation.

“Did you forget what I just said?”

“Well, I don’t know.”

“The Murim people cringe when necessary, but when the job is finished, they say it’s a plague to cut their wages somehow! Do you think it’s different from the Judge’s relatives? They’ll try to steal something that looks expensive while being annoying. It’s not like it happened once or twice. So hurry up and get it!”

In the voice of Cheon Ki-soo, I could feel his strong will, saying, ‘I won’t take care of your share if you ask me any more questions.’

Yeon Woo-hyuk didn’t ask any more and quickly started searching together. Come to think of it, there was nothing wrong with stealing the judge’s property.

At least, I’m worried about taking care of the back, but since it was led by Jegal-woo anyway, even if there was a problem, it was enough for Jegal-se to blame it.

“Old man. I have a question. Why do you only bring elixirs and not jewels?”

“That’s a good question. The elixir is as valuable as jewelry. But people don’t remember it as much as jewelry. The Judge’s kin will be annoyed if the jewelery disappears, but they won’t even notice if the elixir disappears. Not to mention, since they are not Murim people… you’d better keep that in mind when collecting rewards in the future!”

‘Am I really from Jegal Sei?’

Not knowing that Yeon Woo-hyeok was having such heinous thoughts, Inspector Cheon Ki-soo took Ha Soo-o and appraised him. He was about 50 years old, a pretty heavy guy.

“Take it. You take this.”

“!”

Yeon Woo-hyeok, who grasped the value of Hasuo with his spiritual eye, was surprised.

In legends wandering around the river, there are things like 10,000 years of age, but in reality, even 50 years of age was a very valuable elixir.

Even if you are not a Moorim person, if you decoct it well and eat it, you can see the effect of strengthening muscles and increasing yang energy. It was probably for that purpose that he was in the judge’s main house.

And for Yeon Woo-hyeok, who is now aiming for a first-class title, it was more valuable than gold.

“Can you give it to me?”

“If you do the work, you should be rewarded. It is of little use to me.”

Jegal-woo didn’t feel much regret.

When you reach a certain level, understanding and enlightenment become more important than recklessly increasing the amount of internal energy.

“The other warriors of Sega might covet it, right?”

“Why do you care about Zhuge Sega? take care of it Those guys will make their own money!”

Yeon Woo-hyuk quietly shut his mouth and took the elixir.

There were quite a few good elixirs in the main house, although not as good as the Hasuo he just took. It was felt that the judge had a lot of interest in longevity and health.

From dried snakes to various kinds of hemp and even poisonous mushrooms…

‘Why did you try to eat poisonous mushrooms?’

No matter how helpful it is for nourishing tonic, they even have poisonous mushrooms.

Yeon Woo-hyuk was dumbfounded and scanned the surroundings with his spiritual eyes. In fact, the Spiritual Eye was a useful ability when stealing in this way.

Even the elixir hidden underneath was carefully taken out, and Zhuge Yu stared at him.

‘Oops. Was it too good?’

Yeon Woo-hyuk flinched inwardly.

It was said that he was looking for it as a spiritual eye, but it could have been a strange misunderstanding from Jegal-wu’s point of view.

“You are quite good at finding them! I won’t go anywhere and eat your share.”

“…thank you.”

***

While Ojak made an official report, the people at the mansion prepared for the funeral, and the invited Murim people finished preparing to return home, Yeon Woo-hyeok closed his eyes and concentrated quietly in his safe house.

I was thinking of breaking through the first-class wall today.

‘Insufficient internal energy is pierced with the elixir brought from the mansion.’

Hankyung was busy preparing for the judge’s funeral. He said he was dismissed, but I couldn’t help but pay attention to him as he was once in a government post and had quite a bit of authority.

However, Podu like Yeon Woo-hyuk was rather free at times like this. Nothing useless happens, so all you have to do is patrol well.

Now is the right time to break the wall you have been putting off.

Enemy!

The elixirs he crumpled into his mouth turned into strong energy as they went down his throat. Yeon Woo-hyuk felt the bitter taste and focused his mind. I couldn’t miss even a little bit of inner strength.

Unfamiliar inner workings circulated all over the body along the gikyung arm veins. Yeon Woo-hyeok opened the spiritual eye and accurately observed the flow of internal energy. If you make a mistake, you could lose your inner energy and even suffer internal injuries.

From perineum to white blood. The inner ball slowly increased in size and moved. From the inner energy stored in the veins of the whole body through the heart method to the inner energy newly absorbed as a magic medicine, it was gathered and entangled into a dantian.

Yeon Woo-hyuk felt that the martial arts phrases he had learned came to mind without realizing it. Starting with the Act on the Right to the State, the White Four-Pyeon Act, Escape from Marriage, the Double Sabotage Act, and the Unselfish Gyeonggong.

‘I think I can do it!’

Yeon Woo-hyuk perfectly understood the martial arts he had learned through his spiritual eyes, so he felt his flaws better.

No matter how well you understand martial arts, if you lack internal and external skills to support it, proper power will not come out.

In the case of Yeon Woo-hyeok, there was a severe disconnection between herbivores and herbivores. It happened because I couldn’t connect the herbivore while my inner energy supported it.

But now, Yeon Woo-hyeok felt confident that he would be able to unleash the rudiments of martial arts he had learned.

Yeon Woo-hyuk jumped to his feet. And then, the law of sovereignty was issued. A dizzying kwonyoung left in the air like an afterimage.

The pleasure of moving one’s limbs according to one’s thoughts was an unbearable sense of achievement for a Moorim person. Yeon Woo-hyuk fell into a trance and continued his kwonbeop.

“Hmmm.”

“!”

Woohyuk Yeon turned his head.

The red tide and his subordinates, who performed reverse magic, stood in front of them with embarrassed expressions.

“hey. Have you attained enlightenment?”

“yes.”

“Congratulations. It’s pretty much like an ascending fist. What kind of law is it?”

“It is the National Rights Act.”

“No, isn’t that the martial law of the golden chair?”

Yeon Woo-hyuk was surprised again. It was also the first time that the other person was not embarrassed by the name, but rather admired it.

“you’re right. How did you know?”

“I know because I’ve dealt with the golden chair before. It’s strange that you learned the martial arts of the golden chair.”

“There was a relationship.”

From noble mtl dot com

“Looks really good.”

The red tide knew very well that the warriors of Geumuiwi did not easily pass on martial arts to outsiders. It was even more so if it was a Maljik like Podu.

Taking that into consideration, it was a really great talent. It was often easy to forget because of Podu’s wisdom, but in fact, Podu’s martial arts were not pushed too far.

It is extremely rare for a person who is neither from a prestigious political faction nor a Moorim person to achieve this level.

‘It looks like a second-class horse or between second-class and first-class, but have you broken the first-class barrier? That… makes no sense.’

I needed time to build up my inner skills beyond simply talent. I don’t know if there was an elixir, but it was difficult for one Podu to find such a thing.

“Come in. The old judge passed away…”
