I Am This Murim’s Crazy Bitch – 290



[Episode 290] Samcheonpo

There is no need to elaborate on ecology or anthropology. People originally live near rivers.

because-

Surprisingly humans cannot live without water!

Therefore cities in the central plains are usually built along rivers.

If it is a large river you wear it on your side; if it is a small river you wear it in your crotch.

However as an exception small villages were located on vague ridges at the foot of the mountains which is a characteristic of clan villages that were completely fortified in preparation for raids on villages next to the traditional culture of the central plains.

Unless it is such a closed neighborhood it is usually located near a river.

Meanwhile the Hwangha River one of the famous three major rivers of the Jungwon region flows above Gamsan.

And below Gamsan the Nakha River a tributary of the Yellow River flows.

As a side note the Yellow River means yellow river and the Chinese character for “Ha” itself means Yellow River.

The Yellow River is the birthplace of civilization and in the early days when this terrible and barbaric writing system was created there was only one river the Yellow River.

So speaking of the Yellow River the yellow Yellow River is released again and becomes a yellow (yellow) river (river) so it becomes quite eerie.

Yellow yellow river river.

And the character for Nakha River is Nak Hwangha. If you interpret this it becomes a yellow river (Nak) and a yellow river (Ha).

Yellow yellow river yellow river river.

It could be said to be a river with a very strange name.

So Cheong came down to the bottom of the mountain and-

Also the land had been flooded and the mud had been washed away so I got on the wagon halfway got off the wagon removed the wheels pushed it and barely managed to arrive at Naknyeong City.

However the name of the city Naknyeong means hope for the well-being of the Nakha River.

As you can see from this name it means that the city is completely ruined when the river overflows.

And the drop river overflowed.

“ah….”

What greeted Cheong with mud caked and falling down his knees was a miserable sight of a city that had already been devastated.

The wall closest to the river had completely collapsed and the citizens of Central Plains who had a strong sense of civic spirit were working hard to remove the remains of the wall.

Of course it can be said that perfect recycling is achieved with no waste produced as the remnants of this wall are collected and used to repair houses destroyed by floods.

The flood destroyed even the gate tower of the castle gate which was connected to the castle wall so much so that the castle gate was no longer functional.

There wasn’t even a guard guarding the gate so I just drove a horse and entered the city. There were almost no obstacles left to block the view to the left side of the river based on the main road.

The one on the right isn’t in good shape so I’m busy pouring out muddy water and sweating profusely from the intact building.

Fortunately even though it’s that busy you can usually see people just sitting around with a look of bewilderment and letting go of everything no matter where you look.

Cheong’s heart is heavy when he sees that.

In fact the Qing Dynasty knew that flood damage in the central plains was a periodic event having heard it several times.

In old cities when you dig up the ground you find relics and a basement and then they’re usually buried by floods and then you build on top of it again and so on right?

However there was a clear difference between knowing and seeing it for yourself.

After that my thoughts went to the luggage compartment full of gold.

okay. I’m going to pick up the gold and use it somewhere.

And there is nothing more satisfying than being generous with other people’s money.

but. Even if you put your mind to it it’s overwhelming.

I have gold but what should I do?

Of course Cheong is a person who asks questions when he doesn’t know.

It was one of the Qing’s few advantages.

So Cheong tried to do that.

“Seol Sojeo. if. Haha… no.”

You should ask the person you want to ask.

Besides what else would a kid who lived in a neighborhood with nothing but ice know about flood damage?

For the first time in a while Cheong thinks for himself.

hmm. First of all aren’t there people like big merchants and grain merchants in the city? First of all it seems like all you have to do is pay gold use the amount you have and use the amount of food you have and then pay a down payment to a large commercial company for restoration work and entrust the construction to them.

ah. okay.

There will be at least one political attaché here as well so a native here would be more knowledgeable.

So the Qing asked about Naknyeong’s political faction Naknyeong’s military officer. Even the name is completely native.

Cheong drove the carriage towards the Naknyeong military officer.

To be precise the horse was going on its own but at a fork in the road it slowed down and Cheong then pulled the reins to determine the direction.

As I was going slowly (because I didn’t know how to drive fast) I noticed a crowd of people gathered in a large vacant lot.

In the view from the coach seat there is a boy hanging from a tree with his head visible.

From the looks of it it looks like he’s barely able to breathe as he’s stepping on something.

Cheong jumped up from the coachman’s seat and raised his gaze to see the boy with the hanging neck barely standing stepping on a man’s shoulder.

The faces of the man and the boy are so similar that anyone can see that they are father and son.

It was a miserable sight with the child stepping on the father’s shoulder and hanging by the neck barely able to breathe.

In response people throw mud and rocks to hit the father who was supporting his son and the man is desperately trying to maintain his balance while supporting his son while being beaten like that.

Cheong sees people a little differently.

Rather than looking at it in three dimensions you can see the karma he has in numbers so you can roughly estimate his actions without giving in to first impressions.

A man and a boy.

Twenty-one points of bad karma and one point of good karma.

They were just people you could see as ordinary people.

But again I don’t know.

Cheong lightly jumps out of the carriage and Seoliri awkwardly grabs his arms bends down and turns around as if he wants to get off with him.

“ah. Seol Sojeo is just here. Why are you following me when you’re not even physically fit? “Sit down and rest.”

“yes.”

From Cheong’s perspective there were black bruises all over the outer skin of Seoliri’s body so he thought they might be muscles.

So it’s awkward but I feel a little sorry for him because he’s trying so hard not to show that he’s in pain.

But that’s it.

Cheong stopped paying attention and put his hand on the shoulder of an onlooker.

“Hey. What’s happening now? “Why is that person hanging over there?”

“Why are you touching someone’s shoulder?”

The man who rudely flicked his shoulder suddenly turned his head and ended up facing Cheong’s harmful beauty from a close distance.

Cheong’s beauty is harmful.

It causes your heart to pound too hard and as a result your blood pressure soars. If your blood pressure soars it can cause various side effects.

It is a beauty that is not only harmful to the body but also very harmful mentally so once you see it you become unconscious especially if you are married.

I am cursed to return home and find dried fish taking over my bedroom.

“What’s going on?”

“Hmm. That’s it. “They say that guy is the guy who designed the dimensions of the drop river.”

The man lowered his voice.

I don’t know why but it was because the man thought it was cool to have a good voice.

“So?”

“You shouted loudly that it wouldn’t last for a thousand years but what is this? Unable to withstand one heavy rain all the embankments and embankments burst. “If I hadn’t built it it would have been flooded with water. It’s all because of that guy…”

For some reason there has been flood control work since the end of last fall and construction of a new water gate and embankment on the Nakha River has begun.

But that was the problem.

If it had not been built the river would have overflowed even if there was a lot of rain and it would have been submerged as it usually does. However since a floodgate was built to block the water the rain fell and the water level exceeded the limit.

As a result the floodgate burst and the water rushed in all at once shattering the embankment in one fell swoop.

Thus a huge disaster struck the city. It was a disaster of such magnitude that one could guess its power just by looking at the shattered walls.

“hmm. “So the father was the one who designed it?”

“exactly.”

Just one point of good karma.

However even just one point is proof that the child is innocent so it is impossible to leave the child to die.

“hmm. “Could you please get out of the way?”

“What?”

I asked him to get out of the way but Cheong’s arm was already moving and with the force of a bull pushing a path was created for Cheong to follow.

So when Cheong enters the middle of the clearing the projectiles that were flying at her beauty immediately stop.

Cheong jumped up cut the rope grabbed the boy and landed with a crash.

“Everyone I know you’re angry but isn’t this child guilty? “If he is a criminal he should be punished but the child just had a bad father.”

“Don’t be ridiculous! “If it’s the father’s fault shouldn’t the child have to pay for the crime too?”

Someone shouts loudly.

The murmur of “Is this right?” is spreading.

Cheong rolled on the floor.

The whispering that was about to spread again died down due to the vibration that everyone felt through the soles of their feet.

The ground shook with a single stomp.

The woman who was like a fairy became even more like a fairy.

Of course Cheong had no intention of supporting his father.

Flood control work is an important matter that depends on people’s lives so if there is a defect in it you must be held responsible for the disaster whether intentional or unintentional.

Flood victims have the right to throw stones so it doesn’t matter whether they throw stones at the man or set him on fire but the child still seems innocent.

Just like the bandit boy if you accumulate 300 points of bad karma then Cheongdo will get excited and throw stones together but even if it is only 1 point isn’t good karma good karma?

The cunningness of a person’s heart can lead to different reactions to the same words depending on the beauty of the speaker.

People cleared their throats and did not object in particular to the words spoken by a world-class beauty like a heavenly fairy who suddenly appeared.

hmm. however.

Cheong looked at the dimension designer.

The father who was desperately supporting his son looked completely relieved and was expressing infinite gratitude to Cheong with his eyes.

Twenty-one points of bad karma.

Little by little Cheongdo began to understand the good and bad karma even if he could not explain it in detail.

There is no intention in good or bad karma.

Since scores are only given based on the results of an individual’s work whether the flood control designer was intentionally negligent made some mistake in calculation or did not know that such heavy rain would fall he would have been assigned bad karma corresponding to the pain and sorrow caused by this disaster. It will.

And yet only twenty-one points of bad karma.

Wouldn’t he have always been a very good person with this score even after receiving a huge amount of bad karma?

It was then.

“Seo fairy! Please save my dad! “My dad is not guilty!”

The boy who was busy catching his breath shouted.

When Cheong looked at the boy the boy even shouted loudly.

“It was designed to be able to easily withstand this amount of water! If the construction had been done properly it wouldn’t have exploded! “It’s all because the construction wasn’t done properly!”

Umm. This is a new perspective again.

Cheong was about to look at the man again…

“What does a young bastard know? Since he said he was my father how can you say that he is innocent! “We need to hang it again right now!”

“madam.”

Cheong pulled out his sword and raised it high spouting out a beautiful sparkling sword.

It’s the pretty starlight that silences everyone.

This is because the sword is so sharp that even to a person who does not know martial arts or rather to ordinary people the heart seems to drop.

Cheong who had silenced the audience with a demonstration of swordsmanship looked at the man again.

Twenty-one points of bad karma.

If the design had been done properly and there had been no involvement in the construction would I have received bad karma from this disaster or not?

The dimension designer seemed to have interpreted Cheong’s eyes differently.

“…you’re right.”

“What? “The construction went wrong?”

“It is my lifelong dream to leave my name in Chi-su like Do Kang-eon. “It was designed to withstand even if it rained like yesterday for 30 days and an entire month.”

“But it exploded.”

“The floodgates should have been opened little by little before the water level reached full capacity but the operation may have been inexperienced or the construction may have been poor from the beginning.”

“hmm. “It’s unfair so why are you saying it now?”

“I said that but then they brought my son with me and…”

“lie! It’s a lie! “That guy is trying to pass on my responsibility to the poor workers-”

Look here. Twinkle again.

Cheong was thrilled by the power of the sword.

and. If this is one hit we’ll all end up together.

But by the way.

Cheong stretched out his sword in the direction where the sound was heard.

“just now? Who said that? Since a while ago one person has been making a fuss. If you have something to say you should come out and say it. Why are you hiding? “Would you like to come out here and take a look?”
