misguided. misguided.

The taste was refreshing enough to make me feel like I was eating all the energy from the mountains of Jirisan.

“older brother. Can I film the wild ginseng digging scene today? I’m thinking of posting it on my You Tube.”

“Ah… good. But, if you can’t dig swallows today, you’re the best sandalwood indie..”

“It’s okay if you can’t dig it.”

“Wouldn’t it be hard?”

“If I attach the action cam to my head and chest, there is nothing difficult.”

“Draw it, whatever you like..”

As soon as the words were finished, a chuckle was heard from below.

“I’m coming now… Simmani hyungs…”

“ah..”

Two Simmani full of force appeared carrying a bigger bag behind them than expected.

If you look closely, you can see things like sleeping bags and mats, probably thinking of staying overnight in the mountains.

‘Wow, the combat power is at full level?’

He was in his late 50s to early 60s, with a skinny body that seemed like he could fly over mountains, and he wore a work vest that factory workers used to wear in the past, and plastic boots, not hiking boots.

“Oh my brother… come now.”

“hello!”

“Brothers.. Little brothers you know.. Give me a good touch in the mountains.”

“But, today will be fine. It’s going to be really hard…”

As an outsider who doesn’t know anything, it might be uncomfortable for me… Rather, they looked at my clothes up and down and looked at me with a worried expression and tone.

“If you go up along the waterway, your shoes will get wet.

It was the moment when it was discovered (?) that Hae-shik was not a professional digging professional that even his older brother would use.

“Oh my gosh, thank you. I’m going down later, so Hun-i, wear them.”

“thank you.”

I took off my hiking boots, hung them from my backpack, and put on rubber boots.

“Right? If you feel uncomfortable, tell me.”

“Ah.. it’s okay.”

“How about Haesik?”

“Ayu, I like it, very, it’s a guest mashuing.”

“Draw, it’s fun. Be careful and follow me.”

It must have taken a lot of work and bothered because of us.. Thank you so much for being considerate.

As soon as the words are finished, the two Simmani coolly disappear into the mountains.

wow. fast.

It’s so fast you can’t even see your feet.

“Hun-ah, let’s go quickly too..”

“Yes, brother.”

The deeper I went into the mountains, the more I felt deja vu.

It’s like when you pick up a matsutake..

Certainly, unlike when collecting mushrooms, we went deep into the mountains, and the two Simmanis walked very quickly.

Simmani said that there is a road that only Simmani can walk, but this is not a road.

It was the moment when the place they were going became the road.

“Are you okay?”

“yes! it’s okay.”

It’s fun though. It’s good to increase your stamina too.

A road that is different from the road that ordinary people walk.

Contrary to expectations, the two of them moved along the waterway, wading through the ankle-deep leaves, and saw so many kinds of mushrooms, but they missed them all.

The reason why you can eat but not money.

Hae-shik felt sorry for him too, but he couldn’t help it.

Today, our purpose is three. three.

Literally, they came to dig for treasure.

You have to concentrate.

I can find it, Simmani can find it, or Hae-sik hyung-nim can find it.

Or, you might not find a single person and you’re in vain.

The two men, who had been in the mountains for over an hour, damaged the floor next to the water, where the fallen leaves were piled up.

“We will stay here for two nights and three days.”

“Ah… this is the bed for two days. We are here to help.”

I took out the transparent vinyl they brought and started hitting ‘modum’.

It is not a tent of artificial equipment, but a way to fully enter nature.

Group is a slang word of Simmani.

Nowadays, it is easy to understand if it is a base camp.

It was very interesting.

“I’ll pick up a stone so the plastic doesn’t fly.”

“You have Sentsu.”

It seemed that they had chosen their beds roughly, but when I picked out the floor, I could see that it was close to the water’s edge and flat.

More fallen leaves were laid on the floor, and the pillars and ceiling were erected using fallen tree branches and covered with vinyl.

I finished it off with stones and dirt I picked up to keep it from raining, and a bed was made for several men to lie on.

Gilsoo-hyung and Jiyong-hyung are said to have 20 to 30 years of experience.

It was the moment when Simmani’s inner strength, living in the mountains, shined.

“wow.”

It contained only video.

‘A lot of viewers will like it. Because it’s a scene you can’t see anywhere else.’

“This is not enough for four men to sleep.”

“I have to go down my tongue.”

Hae-sik’s brother couldn’t help it.

Just by introducing me to the two Simmani, I’ve done my brother’s job.

“I will join you. Brother, go down today and bring me some chewing gum.”

“Are you okay?”

“Yes, I am fine.”

“Okay, then I’ll take care of the chewing gum, and I’ll take care of your food the next day. They dug over 100 million Cheonjong Mountain.”

“Cheonjongsam?”

The two of them laugh each other.

It’s a ridiculous expression, as if it’s nonsense.

“Yeah, man. Whose child is Cheon Jong-sam?”

“Ah, I just said it with a good word. Approach it with a good word.”

If it exceeds 100 million, it will probably exceed the treasure we know.

The second Simmani, Gilsu hyung-nim, opened his mouth.

“The chaff with the three degrees, the steps…”

“Oh, is that so?”

“Writing, Cheonjong ginseng over 100 years old, Jijong ginseng under 100 years, and wild ginseng under 30 years old.

“and..”

“Chun Jong-sam, born and raised only in nature, is the dream of all Simmani.”

“Is there any other place where hemp grows well?”

I was curious.

I mean, where is Sam hiding?

“Then, Sam doesn’t like sunlight at sunset… A place where the sun shines when dew forms on the blades of grass. I like places like that.. cancer.”

“ah···.”

It’s easy to say.

Finding a place like that won’t be easy.

That’s why they set up a group in this deep mountain and stay for three days.

Jiyong, the older brother with 30 years of experience, gently opens his mouth.

“Three things are that if you climb the mountain diligently, the spirit of the mountain will tell you.

Each one is like a gem.

right.

How can humans find treasure?

It’s natural that you like it and you have to work hard.

It’s ridiculous, but I’m just taking comfort in the fact that I came up because I liked it.

The two older brothers, who were sweaty while decorating the ‘group’, took off their shirts and clothes and soaked themselves in the valley below.

“Come in if you want to come in. I have to hold a mountain god rite and move.”

“Ah…, Sansinje.”

Raising ancestral rites was the same as collecting pine mushrooms, so it wasn’t that strange.

I thought that if we were together anyway, it would be right to act together until the end.

I also took off my clothes and soaked myself in the valley.

after all preparations.

I placed the prepared fruit and dried pollack on the window paper, poured makgeolli, and bowed.

From noble mtl dot com

“What is your name?”

“I… I’m Jo Hoon.”

“It’s good..”

Gil-soo hyung wrote my name on the window paper and hung it on a tree branch.

“Haesik hyung is…”

“It’s time to write down only three people… This is our no-nonsense mule.”

“ah…”

It is said that the unwritten rule of Simmani is to set the number of days of entry, descent, and Simmani to odd numbers.

It has not been decided by anyone in particular, but it has been passed down through oral tradition since ancient times.

Because Haesik hyung-nim has the same role as Kkakdugi today.

So, only me and my two older brothers raised a drink and bowed.

The reason for posting is simple.

It is to be polite to the spirits of animals that died in the mountains to ask for ‘safety’ and good hemp to protect us.

There is piety, seriousness, and spleen that are different from when collecting pine mushrooms.

After the ceremony, the two brothers Simmani, who made this place their base camp, decided to go deeper into the mountains.

“Is your brother going down now?”

“Oh, you have time. I’ll go in a bit more and go down when the time comes.. They said don’t mind..”

“Okay then, let’s move.”

The deeper you go into the mountains, the more difficult it is, and there are many traces that you have never seen before.

The thick oak stumps are roughly dug up.

“A herd of wild boars passed by this time.”

“Ah… is that so?”

“The wild pigs marked their territory. It’s been a long time since I’ve been grinding with fangs. This should be about the size of a calf.”

“It was very biting and messing around.”

“ah…”

I remembered the half moon bear I saw in the mountains the other day.

We have entered the realm of animals, so be careful.

That’s why I also raised my head.

Now is the time to focus your attention.

I heard it while raising the altar.

You just need to find the leaves of wild ginseng.

5 leaves of wild ginseng.

If you find 5 green leaves, it is a young hemp and there is a strong possibility that there is a female hemp nearby.

I followed the two brothers and gave the floor my eyes and all my nerves.

Hae-shik is a burden to keep going into the mountains.

“Patience. I’m going to write Hasanhaya now. You should take at least three. I’m a sucker this year too. Alltenge tomorrow morning. Hun-ah, just like collecting pine mushrooms, finding a colony is a big hit.”

“Cheonjungsam is the child’s name, you bastard.”

I was worried about sending my older brother alone deep in the mountains.

“Brother, will you be okay by yourself? Shall I go down with you and come back up tomorrow?”

“What are you talking about… Hun-ah, I’ve only been to Cheonwangbong Peak. I am also a living person.. I have an ominous feeling that you are going to dig something.. Try hard to follow this. The chewing gum really sucks.”

“Yes, brother… persimmon…”

At first glance, I saw something wrapped around my brother’s feet.

“Shut up..uu..don’t move..!”

“!”

Gilsoo-hyung’s face turned pale and he stood up quietly.

Rice with Horseshoe Mushrooms and Mountain Vegetables

“Haesik, don’t move… That’s a poisonous snake. venomous snake.”

“Ugh… uh… such a plague..”

Hae-sik, who was so kind and easy-going, had a face like a sheet of paper, and his lower body was trembling.

Squeak.

There was Cathy who turned into a stick, so I thought I’d step in.

In order to kill the poisonous snake with high pressure or throw it away…

But it was raining.

Unconscious of the strange visitor deep in the mountains, he passed through the instep of older brother Hae-sik and disappeared into the creeping vine.

“Whew, I’m glad. older brother.”

“Fat.. What good could happen.. It’s the first time I’ve run into a black bear a few years ago and I’ve run into trouble like this again.”

The two Simmani brothers sweep their hearts out, saying that in the mountains, you have to be careful of accidents, mountain animals, and blood-sucking ticks.

“A wild boar doesn’t care if it’s alone.. When it’s with its cubs, it’s unconditionally capable of attacking it. If you show your back, attack me.”

“In a way, the two of you are risking your life.”

“Oh, you should be thankful that you are moving like this and working with nature as your friend.. Happiness. It is right for a mountain ranger to live in the mountains.”

“I’ll write. I guess I’ll have to go downstairs. I was thinking of picking something up… Hun-ah, work hard.”

“Okay, I’ll do well and go down.”

“Well, don’t come up. I guess we brought some food and something to eat. Don’t worry.”

“Are you okay?”

“I have nothing to be sorry for. It’s not like riding a mountain for a day or two.”

I was able to catch that it was probably because Hae-sik hyung-nim was worried about me.

“older brother. I am okay. I’m sorry to you two, but I’ll take care of you two older brothers.”
