I Reincarnated as a Legendary Surgeon - Chapter 201
Episode 201. Good medicine should be taken by adults first! (2)
The sounds of several people’s footsteps could be heard urgently in the kibang.
“Everyone, let’s avoid it.”
“I’m afraid of bugs like that…”
Yudan’s words didn’t even go through to the end.
The door opened as if it would break with a bang, and warriors poured out again.
“It looks like these crazy old boys really need to break somewhere to come to their senses. Don’t keep matters in your hands anymore.”
“yes.”
The Gibang warriors seemed to have made up their minds now, and were carrying sticks that could only be used when pounding a mortar.
Originally, Nanhwa Old Man and Yu Dan were people who could be called masters, but their physical condition was very bad now.
Soon after, on a rainy day, they were beaten to the point of dust. Old man Nanhua broke his right shin and Dan Yu broke his left arm.
The gibang warriors dragged the two fainting old men out of the entertainment district and threw them under a bridge where beggars were gathering.
“Crazy, perverted old men…. If you stumble into a gibang one more time, they will really kill you.”

The painter was waiting for the items requested by Pyochung to be made, making distilled liquor, penicillin anesthetic, etc., and replenishing the items needed for the next medical trip.
“What happened to that shameless old man and disciple?”
The painter, who was looking for green mold in the inner rock, asked a question as Eulji approached.
“There are several gangs of beggars under the bridge on the side of the gold recommendation, but one of them hates them and is imprisoned.”
“Is it? why?”
“I was caught by an adult beggar after taking and eating rice cake from a young beggar.
“No, those people have a lot of martial arts… no, if they have suffered Chidogon, they should end it with that. Why are they imprisoned?”
“I don’t know, but it seems that my body is not in good health. In addition, he threatened to kill all the beggars while he was being tortured. So the beggars said we should just kill them, but some beggars said it wouldn’t be a good idea to take a ransom and locked them up.”
Usually, if the family does not come, they are starved to death or thrown away before they become corpses.
“okay. No matter how impoverished people’s situation is…. To steal rice cake from a young beggar and eat it! I don’t have a good imagination.”
“I also only received reports from subordinates, so I couldn’t see what they looked like, but I think they are probably similar to beggars.”
“Well, in a way, it’s a bit pitiful that it’s because they brought it on themselves, but… don’t ever save them.”
“Can I save you? I hope they die there.”

When the painter stayed at home for a long time, Pyeonseon and Sarah kept coming into the eyes of the painter.
‘Even with such flower-like things, it’s only medicine. How do you really do this…’
Mrs. Hwa called Seon and Sara to talk.
“sit down please.”
“yes.”
“I’ve seen Congressman Pyeon-seon before, and I think this is the first time here with Congressman Sarah… Oh, the last time I saw you when I greeted you, it was a greeting, so it’s the first time I’ve set up a meeting and have a conversation like this.”
“Ah yes. I am the youngest daughter of the Luoyang Saga guild, and I have two older brothers.”
“I heard that my parents suffered greatly in this upheaval. I must be heartbroken.”
Mrs. Hua looked at the two of them while talking.
And both of them were able to detect that the fireman had feelings for them.
‘I’m glad I’m glad. Still, Boo isn’t without a lot of clothes.’
In fact, it still bothers me that it is a relationship between a priest and a teacher.
As a nobleman, such a thing shouldn’t have happened… Fortunately, a lot of men are dying in the war these days, and as it becomes difficult to make a living, awareness of that part has decreased a lot.
Above all, her worries as a mother were elsewhere.
‘Boo, if he had a wife and children, he wouldn’t be looking for a battlefield.’
The conversation, which was awkward at first, started to be mixed with laughter after a while.
“By the way, Seon hasn’t seen his father in a long time, hasn’t it?”
“Yeah, I can only say hello in person every time.”
“Looks like you’re a bit free these days. How about going back to your hometown at this point?”
When it comes to weddings, adults should step in.
I was thinking of sending a letter to the person who is going home to ask Pyeon-geuk if he wants to get married.
“I’ll ask Master one more time.”
“Okay, ask me once and come see my father.”
“yes.”

The fireman stopped by the all-night room to inspect the medical instruments Pyochung had made.
“Why, it seems that the great smith is getting better and better.”
“It’s a human thing, so you feel it when you do it. Besides, Hwata-nim is a tool to find someone to use, so how could I be vain?”
“Thanks to Daeyajangnim, many people are being treated. In fact, if you don’t have this, you won’t be able to find anyone to save it.”
As the painter admired, Pyochung’s shoulders shrugged.
“Thank you, I will write well.”
“yes. Oh, and the armor of the guards and the breastplates of the guards ordered will take about three more days.”
“The quantity is quite large, but they make it quickly.”
“What Hwata-nim will use is my selfish mind, but the person who ordered it is Eosa Monk, so of course it should be the top priority.”
“Thank you so much. And here is the money.”
“I shouldn’t have received money from Rep. Hwa, but the situation in the all-night party is not good because Jo and the last Hyun-ryeong scraped away so hard. sorry.”
“It is natural to make things for money. what. But no matter how severe the tyranny of the prefectural governor was, did he even suffer damage during the night?”
“Don’t talk. First, Jo Hyeon-ryeong robbed the all-nighters of money, and secondly, Sang Hyun-ryeong robbed the all-nighters. So I couldn’t even repair the soldiers’ weapons for a while. Of course, Hwa Hyun-ryeong is very considerate now, so it’s a little better… but it’s still lacking.”
Hearing Pyochung’s complaint, the painter smiled bitterly.
All of Chohyeon’s granary supplies that Chohyeon robbed when he moved to Jinryu-gun must have been used for war preparations.
This was not limited to Chohyeon, but was happening similarly in the bases of each feudal lord.
When the barn in the prefectural office becomes empty, it is naturally reaped from the people to fill it up.
After all, the longer the war is, the more the young men die and the old people, women and children starve.
“Eh~. Still, Cho-hyeon is better at avoiding the wind on the battlefield. The top pillar or the bottom pillar is not a normal mess right now.”
“is it so. I heard that merchants who do business far away are buying themselves these days… but it seems to be quite serious.”
“yes. Anyway, I will bring the guards and the guards in three days.”
“yes.”
“Then let’s go.”
The painter parted ways with Pyochung and returned home, quietly thinking about where to go next.
“Seoni was thinking about going back to her hometown… Should we go to Nangya Country together at this time?”
The country of Nangya, which belonged to Xuzhou, was also a place that was out of the whirlwind of war.
“On the way, stop by the Waryong River to see if the Zhuge brothers are doing well. I will go to Nangya country.”
Come to think of it, the time for the Zhuge brothers to set their masters and flap their wings to the world was approaching.

When the old man Namhwa and Yu Dan’s family didn’t come to find them, they starved for three days and then abandoned them in the lower reaches of the river.
Having already been beaten to the point of breaking bones, starving, not receiving proper treatment, and being exposed to a dirty environment even to the wounds, the two of them looked worse than beggars.
Usually at this point, they can’t stand it any longer and die, but the old man Namhwa and Yu Dan survived in the end, probably because the rope was strong.
“Kuheuhehe…. If only the flute hadn’t been taken away… you bastards, no, you bastards… you wouldn’t die gracefully even if you died.”
Yu Dan and Namhwa washed their bodies in the river and ate fish to regain their strength.
After recovering his strength to a certain extent, the first thing Yu Dan did was to carve a tree to make a flute, catch a mouse, pull out its fur, make a brush, write something on a tree branch with the mouse’s blood, and then play the flute.
When the strange syllable of the flute sounded, a falcon that always hovered around the two appeared.
Yu Dan tied a branch to the hawk’s leg and blew the flute again to send the hawk flying.
“Hehehe… Master, if you wait now, my gasoline will come.”
Even though Yudan didn’t do anything special, he was breathing heavily as if it was difficult.
Old Man Namhwa, who was older than Yu Dan, sat leaning against the rock, only looking at the tip of the fishing rod that was hanging far away.
“How many days do I have to wait?”
“You just have to wait three days.”
“Damn, I’ll only eat fish for three days.”
“Shall I go and make alms?”
“Be patient, if you get caught by a beggar like last time… you could be beaten to death.”
“Ha~. How did it end up like this…”
With a miserable face, Dan Yu sat next to the old man and looked at the end of his fishing rod.
Yesterday, even a fish the size of a palm was caught, but today, somehow, the tip of the fishing rod did not move.
Stumble.
Then, the fishing rod bent like a bow.
And I caught a big carp the size of my forearm, which was incomparable to yesterday.
“Master Su.”
“Heh heh…. I guess I’ll be able to eat my fill today for the first time in a long time.”
When the carp struggled so much, Yu Dan jumped into the water, grabbed the carp, and came out of the water.
Just a moment ago, Yudan looked like he was going to collapse, but the hand holding the carp was full of strength.
“Yesterday we ate the fish raw, but… let’s grill it today.”
“How do you bake without tools?”
“All you have to do is light a fire, apply mud, and bake. I’ve seen someone eat it that way before.
“is it so. All right. I’ll try to light a fire somehow.”
Yu Dan got dry branches and rubbed them like crazy to start a fire.
After a while, the two of them were able to build a campfire and could smell the muddy carp being grilled.
When I smelled this smell for the first time in a long time, my intestines stirred like a storm in my stomach.
“Hey, I wondered what this smelled like, and I saw that senile old guys were eating grilled meat.”
Then a group of beggars with clubs appeared.
They usually don’t come down from the bridge upstream of the river, but for some reason, they came down today with clubs.
“Oh shit!”
The intentions of the beggars were obvious, so Dan Yu picked up the nearby river stones and stood up, while Old Man Namhwa picked up sticks that were on fire and stood up.
“Ha, these senile bastards are crazy about wanting to die!”
The beggars rushed at the two old men in an instant.
In an instant, the burning tree branch held by Old Man Nanhua moved splendidly, blocking the clubs of the beggars and striking them in the head.
pop.
And then it broke.
The moment old man Namhwa hesitated in embarrassment, the beggar’s club, which had been hit by a spark in the head, struck him on the forehead.
Old Man Nanhua staggered from the shock of the sky spinning, but he still fought to the end. And in the end, he was hit in the back of the head one more time and passed out.
After Namhwa fell, Yu Dan also fell, and the beggars who saw the blood from the two attacks mercilessly stepped on the two people who had lost their minds.
The beggars took out the well-cooked carp from the bonfire only after they had finished venting their grievances and ravenously shared and went back.
