I Reincarnated as a Legendary Surgeon - Chapter 101

Episode 101. Making an escort warrior (2)

While Ok-joo was eating with the fireman’s party toward Nakyang, she suddenly burst into tears, and while sitting next to her, she giggled and laughed to herself.

Oboe and Beon-ah approached the painter, wary of Ok-joo’s slightly insane behavior.

“Master, I think that man has gone a little out of his mind… Is it okay if I continue to hang out with him?”

“I know what you’re worried about, but it’s nothing to worry about too much.”

Despite the painter’s words, the two disciples did not readily agree.

“I’m worried. A crazy person never knows what to do.”

“Uncle Zhu is not crazy. Thoughts that have been forcibly bound up until now are being expressed outside because they are in the process of finding their place.”

“Ha, but… it’s scary to laugh like a crazy person like that.”

“It’s like that now, but it will get better with time, so don’t be so afraid.”

“Certainly, while we are sleeping, we might suddenly go crazy and riot with knives. Last time I saw it, it wasn’t normal to handle a knife.”

“Because you are more advanced than me, you must go together. Can’t you guys believe this master’s words that things will get better with time?”

When the painter changed his eyes, the shoulders of Obo and Buna shrank.

“I will believe you. No, I believe.”

“If you believe, hurry up and have a meal and get ready to depart.”

“yes.”

When the painter came out after a leisurely meal, Obo and Buna, who had finished their meal first, were coming out of the stable in the inn.

Buna, who had been riding behind Obo for the past few days, had learned to ride a horse in his spare time, so from today he decided to ride his own horse he had bought yesterday.

The painter made a puzzled expression when he saw that he was tied to the back of a horse, and his bow and bowstring were tied to Okju’s luggage and Okju’s luggage.

“What is this bow and arrow for?”

“My uncle bought it yesterday.”

“Uncle Zhu?”

Curm~.

At that time, Ok-ju, who had been crying loud enough for everyone around her to hear, appeared clearing her throat.

“If Congressman Hwabu was a nobleman, wouldn’t he have learned archery as well?”

“I got used to it. But I can’t shoot very well.”

“Knives are better in close combat, but no weapon is as threatening as arrows against enemies from a distance. So, starting today, whenever you have free time, practice shooting an arrow.”

“All right.”

The painter nodded his head thinking that Okju’s words made sense.

After a while, the four of them got on their horses and ran towards Luoyang.

At first, riding a horse was awkward for Buna, but thanks to practice, he quickly got used to it and was able to keep pace with others.

The fireman’s party arrived in Luoyang 12 days after leaving Yeongcheon.

Taewi (太尉) was one of the three gongs (Seungsang Taewi Eosadaebu) who assisted the emperor, and was in charge of soldiers throughout the country, and was the highest ranking position to receive 10,000 kok.

When Taewi Hwang-wan collapsed and was unable to enter the palace, the emperor sent Pyeon-won, the head of the best medical doctors in the imperial palace, to treat him.

After taking Hwang Wan’s pulse, Pyeon-Won laid down acupuncture and wrote a prescription and had the medical woman brew a decoction.

“Looking at Whipta’s facial expression… it must be an incurable disease. What is it?”

Hwang Wan, who was lying on the bed, saw Pyeon-Won’s face dark and asked with an anxious expression.

The word ‘ta’ (佗) is an extremely respectful title given to a master in a certain field, and it contained the meaning of a teacher or teacher.

Therefore, the royal court physicians did not call Pyeon-won a medical doctor, but called him a pyeonta, as if they were treating a teacher.

“It seems to be the opposite.”

“what! half? Are you sure? Half of me?”

Huang Wan’s face, which always seemed relaxed, turned black.

“yes. I’m sorry… but it’s almost certain.”

Ban (Ban) refers to cancer, which is common in the future, and in this era, it was an incurable disease with no cure so far.

“I’m half a bar… How can I…”

Huang Wan couldn’t forget his words for a while, and Pyeon-won, unable to look at his devastated face any longer, turned his head and looked out the window.

After a while, Pyeonwon opened his mouth again.

“Unfortunately, all I can do is to alleviate the pain and delay the onset.”

“Half… heh heh… is it difficult to fix it even if it’s the whiplash of the world? Yes, how much longer can I live?”

“I can’t guarantee… If I do my best… About half a year more…”

“Only half a year!”

“yes.”

“…..”

Pyeon-won hesitated for a long time, unable to look at Hwang-wan, who was speechless again, before opening his mouth again with difficulty.

“Whoa-. In fact, I thought I was giving you fleeting hope, so I tried not to say anything like this, but…”

At that moment, Hwang Wan’s eyes were filled with anticipation.

“Why are you so lazy when you say you only have six months left to live anyway?”

“I will tell you.”

Huang An shook his head.

“Maybe my brother will come to Luoyang.”

“Isn’t that… Holy Susinui if it’s the whiplash’s older brother?”

“yes. In fact, I serve as a city council member, but I am far short of your medical skills.”

“Didn’t His Majesty say that when he found the holy water robe… its whereabouts are unknown?”

“Neither I nor the family members know where my brother is, but my niece who goes with him sometimes sends me messages.”

“So, did the niece get a message?”

“yes. He said that he would pass by Luoyang soon, and that he would come to greet me when he had time.”

“If the niece comes, then the holy guardian brother will also come.”

“Perhaps. When my brother comes, I will bring him here no matter what.”

“If the holy water doctor comes… could my illness be cured?”

“I don’t know too much about that. But if it’s older brother… I’m just wondering if there’s another way.”

“When did you say you were coming?”

“It was said to be coming in the near future, but there was no exact date.”

“There are only six months left. Didn’t you say before that if you see a patient on the road, he forgets the destination and treats the patient?”

“Yes, that’s why my niece wouldn’t have told me the date either.”

“I can’t help but wish you to come soon.”

“It’s been a while since I received the message… I’ll be back soon.”

Pyeon-won made some assurances, but the impatience on Hwang-wan’s face did not disappear.

“You’re the second son-in-law, right?”

The painter, who was eating in an inn, turned his head at the familiar voice and opened his eyes wide in surprise.

“Uncle Three! Even the lady… How are you here? ah! Are you here with your brother?”

“yes. The madam made my husband and I take care of the household while the great son-in-law was receiving lessons in the imperial palace.”

“A house in the ecliptic must be expensive…”

Although the family’s situation improved a lot, it was still not enough to buy a house in the ecliptic.

“By the way, where is your brother?”

“He said he would come after looking around the area.”

“Oh yeah. Bo and say hi. These people are…”

The painter greeted the two servants, the pupil, and even Ok-ju, and waited for his brother to come.

The hwabok appeared when the hwabu party finished eating and drinking tea.

Hwa-bok, who did not know that her younger brother would be in the inn, was surprised and soon greeted Ok-ju and two other disciples and had dinner.

“I thought I would be in Hwangjiajang by now, but how can I meet you here?”

“I had some work. By the way, how is your mother?”

“He flies very fast. It looks like you did a good job with your treatment. I even had a party for my family and friends with my recommendation. Even so, he didn’t look tired.”

“That’s because you’re happy.”

“Yeah, even to me, who doesn’t know much about medicine, my mother has gotten better enough that I don’t have to worry anymore. By the way, you heard that His Majesty’s uncle is in critical condition… Are you okay?”

“Something like this happened. And when I’m at the level of the crown prince, I’ll call the imperial court doctor and get treatment, so why should I rush?”

“That’s true… aren’t the royal court doctors worse than you?”

“Oh, brother. By all means, don’t say such things in the imperial palace.”

“Would you say something like that in the imperial palace because I’m crazy? It’s because it’s just you and me.”

“Well, if we hurry, it’s a day or two, but will there be anything special in the meantime?”

“What do you do?”

“By the way, are you looking for a house for your brother?”

“no. People who are recommended as filial piety have residences on the outer palace side. Most of them don’t stay there and get a separate house, so why bother? It’s also embarrassing.”

“Oh~. okay.”

The painter had a light drink with his older brother, then slept in an inn, and the older brother went into the imperial palace the next day.

The painter headed to Hwanggajang only after seeing his brother off.

“For the past 17 years, I have traveled all over the midfield and researched to find a cure for Ban… but I haven’t found it yet.”

At Seong Soo-sin’s polarizing words, Hwang Wan’s face showed a hint of despair.

It was because the city council had said so much, so I was looking forward to it at least a little bit.

“It would be good to see it in about a year from now.”

Polarization said calmly.

“is it? I can’t believe it. I’m fine like this, but it’s been a year…”

“I’ll do my best to find a cure while treating you.”

“If you treat me, I’ll give you half of the world.”

Hwang Wan made a big pledge of his own, but he didn’t welcome the bias and polarization, so he just lowered his head and repeated the words that he would do his best.

Hwang Wan sent a letter to his relatives and friends to gather talented lawmakers from the central court.

As long as he can treat Hwang Wan, his life as a doctor will be fully developed, so famous doctors from all over the world started to flock to him, but they all shook their heads and went back after realizing that it was half.

When the fireman visited the Hwang family, it was at a time when the lawmakers came and went back for a long time.

“How did you come from or where are you from?”

The servant of the Hwang family welcomed the painter with a slightly weary look when the painter appeared with Oh Bo, Bun-ah, and Ok-ju.

These days, the visitors were either officials visiting the hospital or lawmakers who had been recommended by someone.

“I came to check on Taewi-nim’s illness at the command of His Highness Sang, who is in Yeongcheon Castle.”

“You seem quite young, but are you really a member of the council?”

“yes.”

The servant tilted his head, but said nothing more and guided the painter.

“Since the members who came earlier are still examining you, you will have to wait for a while in the inn.”

“Ah yes. All right.”

The fireman went to the inn that the servant had guided him to, and found several people already sitting there, so he sat down in a corner.

‘It seems like everyone is a member of the council.’

All of the lawmakers who were waiting first were elderly.

When the painter appeared, they showed interest for a moment at first, but soon saw the child and stopped their interest. As the fireman sat still, a man who seemed to be the doctor’s doctor came closer and started talking to him.

“Where are you from?”

“I’m from Chohyeon.”

“It’s quite a distance if it’s Chohyeon, but I’m from Munsan.”

“If it’s Munsan… are you referring to Ikju’s Munsan?”

“exactly. But do you know Munsan?”

“I haven’t been there, but I’ve heard that the scenery is beautiful.”

“Haha Our Munsan has a nice view. Anyway, it was fate that we met like this. I say it’s a joke.”

“I am a fireman.”

“I’m nineteen, how old are you?”

“Sixteen.”

“You’re younger than me, but it’s still a first-time meeting, so it’s hard to say… By the way, Master, did you get a name from Chohyeon?”

“Master?”

When the painter tilted his head, Jakpyeong made a slightly absurd expression.

“Isn’t it a medical student?”

“Oh~. I am a Member of Parliament.”

“I also passed the medical examination, so I am a member of the council. But I’m still learning from Master, so I’m a medical doctor.”

“I don’t have a special teacher to attend.”

“What do you mean by that? So you’re saying that you came to treat Grand Master Tai?”

“yes.”

“her! This is really…..”
