Chronicles of the Demon Faction - Chapter 643

Episode 643 A story from the reign (18)

“Well, it’s gotten a lot better.”

“Oh my, is that so?”

“But there is still some residual heat. “How are you feeling dizzy?”

“It hurts a little when the sun goes down, but it has improved a lot. “I think I can somehow resolve this on my own.”

“In most cases, it is better to overcome minor illnesses on your own without the help of acupuncture or medicine. However, since you are quite old and the food you have been eating lately is not very pleasant, I will give you some medicinal herbs and tonics that are effective for headaches. “Drink it and drink it twice a day.”

“no. “I will never be able to repay you for all the grace I have received so far…”

“Don’t take illness lightly. And I never tried to receive favor. “When you get better later, please go to a nearby Buddhist temple and make a donation.”

Hyesim smiled and handed over the medicine ball.

“Well, if nothing happens, I’ll see you in five days.”

“thank you. thank you.”

Hye-sim, who sent the patient, wrote something in fine pen.

“Still, I’m glad you’ve improved a lot. “If you just replenish your nutrition, you will be completely cured within 15 days.”

What he wrote down was a patient list. Because there were so many patients coming in every day, it was impossible to remember them all without writing down their condition and level of improvement.

After filling out the list, Hye-sim opened her mouth.

“Let’s go to the next patient.”

At that time, the door opened and Hye-gwang came in.

“There are no patients left. “I think I can call it a day.”

“is it? Okay. “Let’s get this sorted out soon.”

“I understand, death penalty.”

Hyesim smiled bitterly.

“They say you can stop talking about the death penalty.”

“Huh, we all lost our names, but we’ve been together our whole lives. Can we easily change our names? Now, just accept it as it is.”

“Won person indeed.”

“I’ll clean up outside. “Let’s clean up and eat.”

“I ate the jujeonburi and it’s okay. “You do it among yourselves.”

“Oh, and then you get sick.”

“Oops! It’s not that weak. Enough with the nagging, you guys, go ahead and fill your bellies. “You had a hard time today.”

“All right. “Then rest.”

As Hye-gwang left, Hye-sim sighed.

“I’m tired.”

Shaolin’s martial arts techniques were constantly maintaining his physical condition at its peak.

But there was nothing I could do about mental fatigue. Of course, treating patients was not burdensome or difficult. The number of patients she received every day was so large, and the accumulated fatigue was so great that Hye-sim of the world began to get tired.

Hyesim climbed onto the bed and sat cross-legged.

After a while.

Wooooow.

A golden sign appeared on his body.

While I was learning medicine and practicing medicine, I didn’t really do any martial arts training. But surprisingly, the level of Prajna ability was deepening as time passed.

A small smile appeared on Hyesim’s lips.

‘Achievement does not increase just by focusing on training.’

Shaolin martial arts is the highest peak of Buddhist martial arts. There is nothing in it that is not Shingongjeolhak, and what it pursues is also clear.

The worldly people only saw the power of Shaolin martial arts, but Shaolin monks paid attention to the depth of martial arts.

And the depth of Shingong was bound to vary depending on enlightenment, mindset, and what one was pursuing.

‘It’s naturally entering the landscape.’

Even if you had learned some other new skill rather than just Banyadae ability, your achievements would have increased. The reason is that the life Hye-sim has lived so far has been like another training.

If I had chosen this life to grow in martial arts, my achievements would not have been the same as they are now.

Naturally and with a serious heart.

As I treated patients with only a compassionate heart and devoted my energy to treating them, my spiritual skills automatically opened the door to enlightenment.

‘The way of human beings is the way of life, the way of life is the way of Buddhism, and the way of Buddhism is also connected to the way of martial arts.’

Martial arts was a law inherent in life. If you live your life well with single-mindedness, martial arts will naturally bloom.

Hyesim had already reached that level. He is also walking a similar path walked by Jeoksong Daesa, the adult he respected the most.

Slurp.

The golden, brilliant writing suddenly seeped into his body.

Hye-sim, who was smiling, sighed softly as a sudden thought occurred to her.

“Enlightenment is good, but we must also think about the difficulties faced in reality.”

Reality was nothing else.

‘I’m so short of money.’

It was truly a worldly concern. But I couldn’t help but worry.

Only if you have money can you help needy patients. Even if you lack medical skills, you cannot practice it without money.

At least the heads of the Eight Great Lakes were taking turns making money here and there, but even that was slowly reaching its limits.

‘If I step forward, no clear solution will come out.’

The way the executioners made money was very simple.

It was logging and hunting. Even though their names were erased from the monks’ register, it was a very strange thing for them, who had practiced Buddhism for decades, to cut down trees and hunt animals.

But they had no choice but to do it. It was to save people.

Even if it meant moving further away from Buddhism, there was nothing I could do about it. They could not turn away from the people suffering before their eyes.

‘Now it’s time to make a decision.’

Hyesim was thinking of asking the nearby merchants or wealthy people directly.

Of course, there was very little chance that they would help Hye-sim. If she was going to help, she would have helped right away, and Hye-sim also had no intention of introducing herself as the head of Shaolin’s squadron.

‘Still, I can’t help it.’

The money I had saved up so far was dwindling at an alarming rate. If this continued, instead of treating the patients, they would starve to death.

‘I have no choice but to try and save it again.’

In fact, if you were a martial artist as strong as them, you could have gotten money without anyone knowing. For example, theft.

But that wasn’t really the thing to do. It was not because I was cultivating Buddhism, but because of my conscience, I could not bear to do such a thing.

Hyesim sighed.

‘I feel sorry for them too.’

Rich top and rich people.

Having a lot of money is not a sin. Also, it is not a sin not to give the money you have to the poor. Since the money was their property, what they did with it was entirely up to them.

So, it was wrong to force them to give it up and ask why they didn’t help. Hyesim truly thought so.

So I felt even more sorry. I was sorry that I had no choice but to ask.

‘I’m already full of sin, so it’s shameless, but let’s try it.’

It was then.

‘…?!’

Hyesim’s pupils dilated frighteningly.

“Priest Hyegwang.”

Hye-gwang’s voice was heard from the window.

“Yes, death penalty.”

“It looks like a guest is coming. “Don’t block them, just let them in.”

“Are you a guest?”

“Just wait and you’ll find out.”

After a while.

“omg!”

“You all?!”

The priests’ cries of astonishment could be heard outside the window.

Hyesim closed her eyes.

‘They are very strong people.’

It’s amazing and it’s amazing.

But he wasn’t surprised. I was surprised by their sudden appearance, but I was also not surprised because I had already encountered each of their energies before.

“execution.”

“Take it in.”

“yes.”

Sigh.

The door opened and a man appeared.

Hyesim opened her eyes.

“It’s been a while.”

A middle-aged man wearing fancy silk clothes.

The smile on his face, with his back turned, exuded composure and comfort. It was not the leisure that comes from one’s own power and status, but the peaceful smile of someone who has washed away his worries.

Hye-sim got up from her seat and fought with all her might.

“I meet you, King Taejang.”

“Oh, don’t do that. “Thanks to my Majesty’s grace, I am being praised as a king, but I cannot compare to the greatest living Buddha in the central plains.”

“Hehe, these are difficult words to bear. “It’s a living fire.”

“It’s a living fire. Although he is capable of reaching the world with his martial arts skills, he has put aside all past ties with his powerful martial arts skills and is working hard for the poor. “What would you be if you weren’t a living Buddha?”

“They are just ordinary people imitating Buddha.”

Song Zhengbaek chuckled.

“Get up now.”

“All right.”

“Can I sit here? “It looks like it’s a patient seat.”

“of course.”

“If you do, please excuse me for a moment.”

So the two people sat facing each other.

“You may already feel it, but there is a group outside. “There are many people you have met.”

“I know.”

“I came here as a representative because I felt like it would be a burden if everyone came rushing in.”

“Hehe, what could be burdensome? “I’m just embarrassed because the room is small.”

“What is the embarrassment?”

Song Zheng Baek looked around the room.

“It’s definitely simple. “Did you build it?”

“That’s right.”

“The room has a faint medicinal scent, so even though the room is small, it definitely looks like a place where a doctor lives.”

“haha.”

Song Geum-baek, who was quietly looking around, took out a pouch from his arms.

“Take it.”

“What is this?”

“I put in twenty gold coins and various jewels. “Even if you dispose of it roughly, it would be worth ten thousand gold coins.”

Hyesim’s eyes wavered.

“majesty.”

“For some reason, it seemed like this. It’s not that I don’t know your personalities, but I thought you’d be tight on money. But that doesn’t mean you’re going to steal or commit robbery, right? At best, I’ll try asking a favor from a nearby merchant or wealthy person.”

“…Hehehe.”

“For the time being, this will be able to prevent some financial difficulties. “I’m just sorry I can’t do more.”

“no. “I have received a great favor that I will never be able to repay.”

“haha.”

Zheng Zhongbaek glanced at the window.

“Are your priests also trained in medicine?”

“We all learned it together. However, I am a little better than the priests, so I mainly see the patients.”

“I see.”

Song Geum-baek whetted his appetite.

“I’ll stop by a nearby government office on the way and talk to you. “I’m telling you to take measures for the sick who don’t have money, not just here but throughout Hunan Province.”

Hyesim’s face brightened noticeably.

His face looked ten times happier than when he received the money bag.

“I would really appreciate it if you could do that.”

“hmm.”

After hesitating for a moment, Song Baek stood up.

“Actually, I had somewhere to take you, but looking at the situation, it would be difficult to do so. “If there is a chance in the future, let’s meet again.”

Hyesim smiled.

“Do not worry. “I stopped by Shingyo once last year.”

Zheng Zhengbaek was surprised.

“How did you know we were heading to Shingyo? “Have you at least learned the art of crossing the mind?”

“Huh, can that be true? “I just thought it would be the case.”

“It’s amazing.”

Zhong Zhenbaek said with a smile.

“Even though we can’t be together, it was nice to stop by here. “When I return to the imperial palace, I will speak directly to Your Majesty.”

“I am just grateful.”

“No. “I should have paid attention a long time ago, but I feel like I was neglecting my duties, so I’m just embarrassed.”

Zheng Zhongbaek turned around.

“See you later.”

“Please take a look.”

Geum Baek left the room.

After a while, the six figures disappeared.

Hyesim shouted in a bright voice.

“Priest Hyegwang!”

“Yes, death penalty.”

“We have money!”

It was truly a lively cry.
