I Reincarnated as a Legendary Surgeon - Chapter 47
Episode 47. Traces of conspiracy with the bandit (1)
The fireman followed the five jang and dan, removed the cheoljiryeo, and also climbed the Maseok Mountain.
“I stepped on the iron in front of me, so from here on, I have to walk carefully watching the bushes.”
“yes.”
“okay.”
At Dan’s words, the hwabu and the ojang nodded.
The three of them moved forward cautiously, scratching the bushes and fallen leaves with branches.
Took.
Then, the first thing I found was an iron-covered iron that was full of rust.
“oh! It’s really ironed and sprayed.”
“Be more careful from now on.”
“okay.”
Took.
After a while, the fireman also found a stinger caught on a wooden stick.
There are thorns in four directions, so even if you throw it at random, if you step on it, you have no choice but to be stabbed by the thorns.
Although there is penicillin, the safest thing to do is not step on the rusty iron.
Tuk tuk tuk tut tuk…..
As time passed, the three of them were able to discover more and more of them.
“There are a lot of irons.”
“That’s right. It seems that they were very determined and tried to lure the soldiers this way.”
“Hehe, I’m already more than half full.”
“I’m more than half full.”
“It rained heavily a few days ago, so it’s rusted quite a bit.”
“The more rust there is, the higher the chance of getting tetanus if you step on it, so be careful not to get stung.”
“is it so. All right.”
“Yeah what is that?”
At that time, the five jangs stopped picking up irons and tilted their heads while looking at one side.
“why? What do you have?”
“Look at that. Aren’t you like a person?”
“omg! It’s not like a human, it’s a dead person.”
“yes. I am not mistaken.”
The three of them approached the dead body, removing the stinger.
“Oooh! It looks like he was eaten by wild beasts after he died.”
“It’s so miserable. I feel like I’m going to get nauseous.”
Not only the five jangs, but Dan also turned his head after looking around for a while.
There was no flesh or internal organs left on the body, probably because the beasts of the field had rushed into the herd. Only bones and hair were in a mess, and the clothes were torn to shreds.
The two turned away from the corpse, but the fireman took a closer look at it.
“It is said that Lieutenant Jo stepped on the corpse while chasing the bandit leader, then threw the slash and killed the bandit leader, but this corpse seems to be that corpse. It’s ironed out and stuck all over the place.”
The iron on the bones remained intact.
Because it was a steel blow thrown by Lieutenant Jo with all his strength, it penetrated the flesh and was embedded in the bone.
“is it so. Come to think of it, it seems that the bones are a little bigger than normal people. When I was alive, I must have had a gigantic body.”
“Throw a stroke thrown by Lieutenant Jo, who has excellent skills, and it got stuck in my bones like this.”
“The boss of the bandits… The bad bastard survived and harassed people and died well. It’s very refreshing.”
pug.
Dan suddenly made a grinding noise and kicked the head of the bandit’s skeleton.
Degur.
The skull head rolled like a ball and bounced off the tree stump.
“Hey, look at this. The guy who did all the bad things by himself was wearing a gold necklace.”
Dan, who sniffed his nose, was puzzled for a moment, then picked up a long gold necklace from between the skull’s neck bones.
Even though it had dirt on it, after brushing it off, I could see that it was definitely shiny gold.
“Oh, it’s really gold.”
“huh.”
“Give it to me and check it out.”
When Dan handed over the gold necklace, Jang Oh wiped it off with his sleeve and asked for the necklace with his teeth.
When the sharp tooth marks were engraved, he spat and said, “Tweak,” and then put on a happy expression.
“This was a total windfall for us.”
“I know. Even if we sell and distribute this alone, we can fix it when we sell it.”
“But what is this?”
click.
When I touched something attached to the gold necklace, it split in half and a small piece of paper fell.
Dan picked up the paper and unfolded it, revealing something written in fine print.
“Sir, what is written here?”
Since the two did not know how to write, they handed the paper to the fireman.
“It says that the treasure is hidden in the grotto under the dragon rock.”
The fireman’s words widened their eyes.
“Bo treasure?”
“There is only one dragon rock in Maseok Mountain. That one at the top.”
“But was there a cave there?”
“I don’t know, but can’t you go and look for it?”
“There must be great treasures hidden by the bandit boss.”
“I thought it was a windfall just for the gold necklace, but this will be extended by generations of grandchildren.”
The two of them were ready to run to the place where the dragon rock was.
The painter looked at the two and tilted his head.
“You guys might have treasure, but don’t you think it’s a little strange?”
“It’s strange. What?”
When the painter tilted his head, the two people who had been excited for a while also made a puzzled expression.
“Please change your position. If I were the leader of the bandits, why would I write down where the treasure was hidden and wear it around my neck?”
“…..”
“Can you two forget where you hid the treasure?”
“No.”
“I think I will remember it no matter what happens to the eldest son who hid the treasure.”
“Yes. But why did you have to wear it around your neck like this?”
“Isn’t it because you have dementia or something?”
“Are you trying to be funny?”
“I don’t know.”
The two looked at each other and tilted their heads.
“It’s my opinion, but I think they’ve dug a trap.”
“A trap?”
“yes. Who will find the necklace after he dies like this?”
“Of course he was the one who killed him.”
“Yes. If Lieutenant Jo, who killed Lee, hadn’t stepped on the iron, he would have cut Lee’s head. And you would have found this gold necklace.”
“…..”
“Even if the necklace is made of precious gold, what if the location of the treasure is written on it?”
“I’ll sneak out and find it by myself.”
“Yes. Instead of taking his subordinates, he would sneak out and claim the treasure by himself.”
“If there’s a trap set there, you could die.”
“There are definitely no treasures, and poisoned arrows or needles are probably hiding here and there.”
“Oh, it gives me chills just thinking about it.”
“I’m the only one until the end.”
“It’s just my guess, but it’s highly likely.”
After hearing the fireman’s words, the two looked at each other and tilted their heads after a while.
“Isn’t it necessary to check, Senator? If you don’t know if it’s a trap, you might fall into it, but if you know it’s a trap, I think you’ll be able to defend yourself.”
The painter listened to the words of the five intestines and thought about them quietly.
“My guess may be right, but it could also be wrong, so it would be nice to check it out. Well, there might be treasure hidden there. But before that, let’s get rid of all the iron-clad people here.”
“Haha, that’s right. There are still many years left.”
The three of them searched around and found and collected about 50 more irons.
After that, I climbed the mountain, leaving behind a large mesh bag containing iron.
I was able to reach the dragon rock after climbing for about two more hours from the place where I was beaten.
“First, let’s find the cave.”
“yes. I’ll go that way, and you, Chang, look over there.”
“huh.”
As the two scattered left and right, the fireman looked under the dragon rock.
‘It says it’s a cave, but it’s not written how big it is, so I’ll have to look around.’
A search was conducted focusing on the crevices of rocks, bushes, and bushes, but no grottoes were found.
“I don’t think it’s over here.”
The fireman turned his head and looked in the direction where the five intestines and the altar were.
The two also searched hard, but the cave was nowhere to be seen.
“If it was under the dragon rock, it would be around here… Uh! Wait, isn’t that a stone cave?”
The fireman looked up at the dragon rock and found a small cave right under the dragon rock.
In fact, it was like a small gap between rocks and rocks that would be ambiguous to even call it an oyster.
“Uncle Jang, isn’t that a stone cave?”
“Where are you?”
“There, in the crevice right under the dragon rock.”
“Hmm~ I think one person can barely crawl in, but can we call that an oyster?”
“Still, wouldn’t it be better to check first?”
“I’ll go check it out.”
“No, it might be dangerous, so let’s go together.”
After a while, the three of them stood in front of a small gap between the rocks.
“As expected, you can barely get in if you lie down flat.”
“Looking at the fallen leaves piled up there, there is no trace of human hands…”
Blurred.
As the painter removed the fallen leaves with a twig, the mouth of the five chiefs who was talking dropped open.
Under the fallen leaves, I saw a wooden board with sharp needles tightly inserted.
“It sure looks like a trap.”
“I see. Shall we just not go in?”
“Let’s get rid of this wooden board first and take a closer look.”
After digging the ground and removing the wooden boards, the fireman set fire to a branch and looked inside the cave.
Shining needles could be seen among the moss inside the cave.
“This trap is removed, and if you go in carelessly, you will become a hedgehog.”
“Huh, that’s very boring. I don’t know what’s inside, but even if there are gold and silver treasures piled up like a mountain, I don’t want to go in.”
“I think there’s probably nothing inside.”
“You don’t have anything?”
“Think about it. If you were a bandit boss, would you dig a trap like this and hide the treasure? Even if you just want to go in right away, it would be difficult, so would you go in and out every time you install and remove something like this?”
“ah! okay.”
“I don’t think it’s worth seeing anymore. I don’t know if the needles are poisonous, so I’ll set a fire so that other herbalists don’t want to go in.”
When the fireman put wooden boards and fallen leaves into the crack and set fire to it, the area around the rock began to be scorched black.
The fire did not spread outside because the three people were blocking the entrance, but burned inside and went out after a while.
“Now go downstairs.”
“yes. Still, it’s not in vain. This gold necklace alone is worth at least five pieces of silver.”
When Dan held up the gold necklace and laughed, the five chiefs and the painter also laughed.
“By the way, the bandit boss is really vicious. A simbo trying to drag the person who killed him to the underworld together.”
“So you must be the boss among the bandits.”
While going down the mountain while talking with the two, the fireman suddenly wondered if the bandit leader had really set up such a trap to kill the person who killed him.
stop.
As I was thinking hard, I stopped walking.
‘Wait, are you really hiding a treasure somewhere?’
It reminded me that when Lieutenant Jo attacked the wild and rescued people, he had acquired a lot of wealth, but there was no gold or silver treasure among them.
‘Since the bandits said they also attacked the upper ranks, there must be gold and silver treasure… Maybe there’s a treasure that Lieutenant Jo hasn’t found.’
“Oh, Senator, aren’t you going down?”
On their way down the mountain, Ojang and Dan saw the fireman stopped, so they stopped and looked back.
“Do you know where the bandits live?”
“I know, but why?”
“Maybe there is a treasure there?”
“Wasn’t the wild vegetables robbed by the soldiers?”
“Yes, but perhaps there is something left?”
“well. The soldiers would set fire to it and there would be nothing left.”
“But in case you don’t know, let’s go and see.”
At the fireman’s words, Dan looked at the five intestines and nodded.
“Well, it’s a little bit of a way down, but I think we can get out of the mountain before the sun goes down, so let’s go.”
As if Dan knew the mountain roads better than Jang, he took the lead and the fireman followed.
Because it was downhill, it moved faster than uphill.
The three of them were able to walk for about an hour to reach the forest, where traces of the fire still remain.
There was also a large wooden fence at the entrance of the sanchae, but it was already more than half burned and could not function properly.
Going inside through the barrier, I saw several burned bodies.
“Is there really a treasure in a place like this, Senator?”
“I can’t be sure it’s there because it came with the idea that it might be hidden somewhere.”
“No matter how I look at it, I don’t think there is anything like treasure.”
“But since we’ve come this far, let’s look around and see.”
“I only have half an hour to spare. Otherwise, you will not be able to go down the mountain completely and the sun will set.”
“all right. Find it quickly and leave. I don’t want to stay here long with corpses either.”
“yes.”
Most of the corpses were bare bones, as if wild beasts had visited the sanchaedo here.
Dan, probably because of his experience of finding a gold necklace from a bandit boss, was holding a long stick and digging through the skulls and bones, and Ojang was rummaging through the wreckage of a burned down building.
The fireman did not immediately search everywhere, but wondered where he might have hidden the treasure if he were the leader of the bandits.
‘He’s a very meticulous person to the extent of digging a trap with a gold necklace in preparation for death. There’s no way someone like that could have hidden something really important in a common place. A place that no one else expected at all, but a place that you can go to anytime. I have to find a place like that.’
The painter gathered his thoughts and looked over the wild vegetables once more.
Most of the sanchae was burned, but I was able to infer what the older brother was like before the fire.
‘If I were the boss, I think I would have made this the main house where I could look down on the whole at a glance. Assuming this is the boss’s bed, the other side where the stream flows is where the food is prepared, and there must be a side room on that side. And that other side….
‘ The gaze stopped.
There was a rock that was not a dragon rock, but looked similar to a dragon rock.
Of course, the size was incomparably smaller than the dragon rock.
