EP2. The Story of Black Snake Yoongi [Part 2]
For a family as old as the Songwol family, there is bound to be at least one legend passed down through the family.
Because Yungi's family was a black snake family, legends related to snakes were passed down from generation to generation.
This legend was not so much a story of the past as a heavy, unapproachable feeling, but rather a legend like a folk tale passed down from mouth to mouth.
.
.
.
In fact, there were many other families besides Yun-gi's family, the Black Snake Family, such as the Tiger Family and the Black Panther Family, but my family, the Songwol Family, was the only family related to snakes.
So to speak, there was no snake other than the black snake.
Even if they were different colored snakes, the ones that had black on their bodies were the most common ones. - That is to say, - in any case, they were snakes that had received even a little bit of the blood of the Black Snake family.
In fact, it is difficult for one species to survive without other species in an ecosystem.
To explain the current situation, that is, the situation where there are only servants of the Black Death family, we must use humans as an example.
In fact, we humans did not descend directly from Australopithecus afarensis-Homo habilis-Homo erectus-Neanderthals-Homo sapiens, but there was a time when we coexisted.
Didn't you notice anything strange?
Right now, in the 21st century, only Homo sapiens survive and continue human civilization.
The only explanation for this is that Homo sapiens genocided other species.
The Songwol Clan, or Black Snake Clan, was also the only species that survived after slaughtering all other snake species.
The legend begins from there.

Once upon a time, there lived a very large and majestic black snake and a very sleek and agile red snake.
The two countries lived separately, one in the east and the other in the west, and their relationship was not good. That's how the relationship between the two countries continued.
- "Ha. Look at that red-faced Hong Sa passing by, as if he's embarrassed!"
- "What about the black sand that looks so dark and cheap?"
- "What? What are you talking about!"
Fights between people were also constant. It was so intense that the Black Death Kingdom even said, "We must defeat the Red Death Kingdom in every way."
It was to the extent that Hong Sa-guk said, "You shouldn't even look at Heuk Sa-guk."
-"As expected, Hong Sa-guk can't even hit the four directions? Hahahaha!!"
-"Black Death is not good at anything other than attacking the four directions, tsk!"
However, it is said that in the Black Death Kingdom and the Red Death Kingdom, a handsome young man and a beautiful young woman fell in love with each other.
The handsome young man and the beautiful young woman loved each other passionately, and they were like the sun and moon to each other.The young man's name was Chansol, and the girl's name was Dasom.
One day, while avoiding people's eyes and loving each other,
Chansol often went to the edge of Hongsa Kingdom's territory, and the villagers became suspicious of him and secretly sent people to him.
Among them, there was someone who was Chansol's best friend.
So, while the two people were having a secret conversation at the border between the Black Death Kingdom and the Red Death Kingdom,
Chansol's friend happened to see that scene.
However, Chansol's friend kept quiet about the fact, and luckily the two were able to get away without being caught.
Having overcome one hurdle, the two thought that peace was the only thing left, but they encountered another obstacle.
That's right, it's a war between two countries.
- "Let's destroy the ridiculous Hongsa Kingdom!!"
- "Let's show the Black Death, who ignored us, an example!"
Because the two countries were not on good terms, the war was very fierce and brutal.
Adults, children, women, and men were all busy killing each other without distinction.
The streets were littered with corpses of people with red hair and people with black hair, all lying in a miserable state.
Is it time for the two to part ways?
That day was one of the few days when the war between the two countries briefly stopped due to an implicit agreement.
It was a very rainy day that day.
They went to the border where they always met and made love.
Was it because I let my guard down too much?
The young man did not notice that the leader of the Hongsa Kingdom was behind him.
- "Where are you, the daughter of the Hongsa family!"
The moment I held the knife to Chansol's neck
- "Just one word... Just one word, please."
From this moment on, deep sorrow began to well up in Dasom's eyes and overflow.
A sadness perhaps several times deeper than the rain falling from the sky right now, a heart perhaps several times deeper.
Perhaps the sadness of the sky is drizzle, and the sadness of the Hongsa is thunder.
- "Dasom, I'm saying goodbye to you like this, but my chest is torn apart. If we can meet in the next life, I will do everything I couldn't do for you.
I wanted to love you for a long time, but please forgive me for leaving first."
Chansol couldn't say everything he wanted to say.
Hong Sa-guk's leader threw a knife at Chan-sol.
You won't die right away. This is intentional.
A cruel intention to make you feel pain until the end.
In Chansol's hand was a very pretty hairpin for Dasom, who had never had a hairpin before because she was poor.
Chansol made several shapes with his hands and showed them to Dasom.
Ah. Ah. That's their military name.
What Chansol said was,
- 'I will love you until the very end, even if I go through eons of life.'
There is a saying that the last sense a person retains is hearing.
Chansol died too soon to hear Dasom's last words of love.
All I could hear was the sound of the rain pouring down and Dasom's crying.
So the love between the two was like the love between lovers created by the cruelty of God.
Love painfully, and break up painfully.

Once upon a time, there lived a red snake.
When in the form of a snake, his skin is said to be as red as the sun and his eyes shine like the moon.
When in human form, the skin was as white as if it had always been red, and the eyes and hair were so red as if they had received the energy of the sun, so it was said that its beauty was beyond compare, and if you possess that snake, you will surely find enormous wealth and the key to the time of infinite eons.

Of course, the young head of the Songwol family, Yun-gi, also grew up hearing this legend since he was young.
I thought it was a waste of time to go looking for a red sand that might exist.
Yoon-gi just passed it off as an old story.
But the Hongsa tied to the two's wrists is a string of fate that will never be broken.
It was harder than I thought, and redder than I thought.

Author's Note
Everyone, it's been a really long time since I've been here ㅜㅡㅜ I'm sorry I haven't been able to write much because I've been busy with my current life ㅠㅜ
It takes a long time to write an article, and I spend a lot of time editing and reviewing it, so the gap between publishing articles is long.
So I'm going to edit the article I already posted and re-upload it.
I will do my best and write diligently.
The story that Neanderthals and Homo sapiens coexisted in the middle is a claim from Yuval Harari's anthropology book, Sapiens.
I remember that the book contained the hypothesis that 'Homo sapiens attacked Neanderthals and Neanderthals became extinct' and that 'the two coexisted and interacted with each other' (if anyone knows more precisely, please let me know in the comments)
This story is based on electronics! Haha
Also, I created a blog..!

Have a peaceful day >_<
