Doctor’s Rebirth - Chapter 727
Episode 727
This kind of hearing does not take place when cooking or making something.
When martial arts and people’s lives are at stake, I always criticize myself like this.
No, martial arts ultimately involves people’s lives, so people’s lives are counted together.
It’s not very good for your mental health.
On the other hand, the reaction of people in this region was different.
“Hero! Buddha has sent a hero!”
One of the villagers suddenly screamed. And everyone ran out and shouted.
“The hero has arrived!”
“Waaah!”
Even children stood up and started cheering.
‘okay. I saved someone today. ‘That’s it.’
What if it’s okay?
Since there are no dead civilians, shouldn’t we be thankful for that?
“Tie up the fallen magic enemies. “It’s not life-threatening, so you’ll wake up soon.”
An unexpected answer came to those words.
“Oh oh! “The hero wants to use these magical enemies as sacrifices!”
“I will follow what the hero says!”
Offering? Jemuul?
Jin Cheon-hee was surprised and spoke loudly.
“no. no! I would like to inquire where the Blood Pungsa Temple’s headquarters is. And since they are criminals, we will hand them over to the state.”
“ah! You want to sell them as slaves. All right.”
“They say it is not used as a sacrifice. “The hero wants to make you his slave!”
“Waaah!”
A bright smile and bright voice.
But why?
A strange madness was felt among the smiling civilians.
The people gathered their horses in one place and trapped the stunned demon bandits.
‘No, I’m not trying to make them slaves, but I’m trying to hand them over to government officials…?’
Still, I thought I had learned quite a bit about the culture by learning the language of the people here, but it seems not to be the case.
At that time, the shaman suddenly approached.
“You guy. “You were a new guy?”
“Outside the birds?”
“It’s not a story to tell here. “Come to my residence.”
After saying that, the shaman quietly disappeared somewhere.
Surprisingly, Jin Cheon-hee could not feel the sight disappearing like that.
‘As expected, you are quite an outstanding person! I’ll give you something delicious.’
The more I looked at it, the more I liked it.
* * *
Jin Cheon-hee left the cleanup to the people and headed into the forest.
How much did it cost?
A hut-like hut made of cone-shaped branches and leaves appeared.
Inside the hut, there was a smell of smoke and a faint crackling sound, as if a fire was being lit, and that alone was enough for Jin Cheon-hee to find him right away.
‘The smell of leather. It looks like a leather tent was put up instead of a door.’
Then, he extends his hand and naturally enters the gap between the leather straps.
“Are you really blind?”
“Oh, actually, blindness is disguise and you just walk around with your eyes closed.”
“Close your eyes and wander the mountain path like it’s your own home? My true. Are all Central Plains people like this? “I don’t think so.”
The shaman grumbled and greeted Jin Cheonhee.
“Oh, leave the dogs and birds outside. “This is my territory, so if something too strong comes, it will be ruined.”
‘When I went to Wanong in the past, I saw Hwanggu and Nojin and had never heard anything like that, but they have definitely gotten stronger.’
These spirit creatures were now so strong that they could not enter the shaman’s domain.
‘Well, the battle just was huge.’
Jin Cheon-hee told the two guys to stay outside for a moment and then came inside.
the shaman asked as he threw branches into the bonfire.
“What are humans doing here other than birds?”
“Are you a bird? This is the new world….”
“If you focus on the Fire Empire, this would be the new world. But if you focus on us, you are all new.”
At those words, Jin Cheonhee suddenly realized.
“Ah… I see. That is correct. “How did you know I was from the Empire?”
“You seem to be able to see through everything in the world, but when you look at things like this, you look like a real idiot.”
“Ahahaha.”
The shaman is this blind musician.
No, I sighed when I saw the stranger disguised as a blind musician.
“After dealing with the bloodthirsty bastard by yourself just a moment ago, you’re not even able to warm yourself by the fire when you come here.”
He was a truly strange man.
The new guy in front of me.
“First of all, the jaw line was visible under the bandages and did not look like someone from this area. Their skin color is also close to that of northerners. Of course, it is difficult to judge based on this alone. “This is a place where many immigrants come.”
“okay.”
“Besides, that spirit was not of this land.”
“Youngheun?”
Not a soul, but a spirit trace. The only thing that happened was that instead of the letter ㅗ in the middle, ㅡ was added, but the meaning was quite different.
My mouth dropped open in surprise at the unfamiliar concept.
“You do witchcraft and you don’t even know the spirit?”
“Bae… you never learned it?”
The shaman was dumbfounded by those words and asked back.
“Are you sure you can use magic?”
“That’s right! Would you like me to show you?”
Jin Cheon-hee urgently showed the wound on her wrist and healed it using magic.
Originally, I would have prioritized natural healing rather than doing this, but since it was a matter of trust, I did it in a hurry.
After seeing that, the shaman shouted as if he was dumbfounded.
“No, damn it! “It’s a fairly advanced spell!”
“Why are you even swearing?”
“A guy like that doesn’t know Youngheun?”
The shaman was dumbfounded and asked, spit flying.
“I guess you learned the basics from the ancestral shaman!”
“This is all I learned. Oh, and something similar to disinfection…”
“You’re saying you’ll learn those two just by teaching them?”
“yes? yes. Because you taught me.”
“….”
“I wrote down all the preview and review key points and honed my magic through repeated training and practice!”
“….”
Why? An expression of resentment emanated from the shaman.
It was regret about his life itself. He suffered for a moment, tearing out his own hair.
“…the world is so unfair.”
After some time had passed, he said.
“Anyway, give me a drop of your blood.”
He held out a bowl made of bone. It was the skull of some animal, but it was difficult to tell.
“It’s not like a curse, is it?”
“Am I crazy? “You’re cursing me right here in front of a guy who could cut off my head with a blade?”
I even felt sadness from the shaman.
Jin Cheon-hee gave up a drop of blood.
“Here it is.”
Drizzle –
Dark red blood flowed down like a pomegranate.
He chanted a mantra into the drop of blood for a long time. Then the blood boiled on its own, turned into steam, and was sucked into his nose and mouth.
“As expected… you’re a new blood guy.”
Jin Cheon-hee’s eyes widened slightly at those words.
‘Wow, I figured this out.’
When he found out that Jin Cheon-hee was a new blood, his expression brightened for some reason.
“Is new blood something special?”
“Don’t you see that you can use advanced magic just by studying or reviewing it? That’s not all. It’s amazing in that it allows alcohol that would normally be incompatible to be used at the same time. “It is also the best as a sacrifice.”
sacrifice.
A word that presses deeply into the solar plexus.
Jin Cheon-hee asked casually, deliberately pretending to be casual.
“Now that I think about it, the villagers were talking about sacrifices. Do you by any chance do human sacrifices?”
“My liquor does not know the law of human sacrifice.”
It was fortunate.
“But why are you asking that?”
“For those who make human sacrifices, their path is different from mine.”
The road is different.
It was a short word, but for some reason, its meaning was so cold that it was even scary.
The shaman chuckled at that sight.
“Don’t force your Hua Empire’s ideas on us. This is a barren land. You could say that the life of the fittest that you talk about in the Empire of Fire is our life. “Of course, isn’t that the same thing?”
The lives of civilians in Gangho.
The warriors suck the blood of the civilians and the civilians groan beneath them.
The blood in the rivers never stops, and the strong always kill the weak.
Death death death…
“At least I live to prevent it.”
“I can’t even say that Gangho is different. “I like you because, unlike other new foreigners, you are not hypocritical.”
“….”
Jin Cheonhee does not answer. Still, he seemed to like it and continued talking leisurely.
“The diet of the fittest. That’s the case with those bloodthirsty warriors who came here today to plunder. If you hadn’t stopped them, most of the villagers would have been killed and their wealth stolen. “The children will be taken away somewhere and live miserable lives.”
Because that’s a magic trick.
He continued speaking.
“Then isn’t it justifiable to use them as sacrifices to create great magic and enrich this village? “That is human sacrifice.”
“But…”
He continued talking to Jin Cheon-hee, who tried to deny it.
“There is a saying like that in Gangho. If you want to kill others, you must be prepared to die yourself. That wouldn’t be denied, would it? “If you lived in Gangho.”
At that moment, Jin Cheon-hee thought of her younger siblings.
Ye Ha-ryun, Jin Tian-yu, and Sima Hyeon.
There is not one among them who has not had blood on their hands.
As long as I live as a warrior in Gangho, I will always live in the middle of Eunwon. In that case, someone had to die for it to end.
If so, it will only save your own life.
On the contrary, it meant taking the lives of others.
The shaman asked back.
“If it is justifiable to kill those who tried to kill me, wouldn’t it be just as well to benefit from them as human sacrifices rather than just killing them?”
“….”
The shaman sees the young man’s neck trembling slightly.
“You really are strange. Just a moment ago, he was fighting like the second coming of a warrior, but now he is leaving with only one small life left.”
Is it because it is the fate of those with divine blood?
The shaman asks himself:
Eventually he continued speaking.
“good night. It’s late today, so come back tomorrow. Starting tomorrow, I will teach you witchcraft. “You are certainly a strong warrior, but you will now have to break the foundation of witchcraft.”
“…thank you.”
“I will give you five days.”
Jin Cheon-hee nodded, took out a small wrapping cloth, and handed it to him.
“What is this?”
“When visiting a guest’s home, I know that I should not go empty-handed and that I should give thanks even if I have to learn a few simple lines.”
“You are polite.”
When I opened the wrapping cloth, there was a small box inside.
There was star candy in it.
I had prepared it in advance so that I could eat it if I ran out of sugar before coming to Saewae.
The other compartment contained hard snacks that I had never seen in my life, and they looked like they were made from dried fruits from Joongwon.
And even a few silver coins.
“Take the money back. “It would be an insult to convert this into money.”
“Excuse me.”
Jin Cheon-hee quickly retrieved the silver coin.
The shaman began to really like Jin Cheon-hee.
“Then go out and have a look.”
“Thank you.”
Jin Cheon-hee greeted lightly and went out of the tent.
The early morning air filled my nasal passages.
Birds chirping from far away to near.
It was the sound of dawn coming.
When I lifted the bandage, I noticed that the sky had already been colored indigo.
‘It is a sacrificial offering.’
The brief blue light between night and morning.
It was like a human life.
