I Reincarnated as a Legendary Surgeon - Chapter 65
Episode 65. Wisely like a snake (2)
“It seems that the great chief gifted me with a better sword than I did.”
Inspector Joe shook his head.
Now, the sword has teeth in several places and blood and oil are clotted, so it is impossible to test the cutting power, but I did not think of anything other than the idea that this sword was a masterpiece of a great master.
No, in fact, I felt a bit lacking, but I forcibly focused my thoughts on that.
Lieutenant Jo took the fireman’s sword and headed for the house where the young woman had entered with her daughter on her back.
When I got home, I could see the painter giving a bottle of spirits to a young woman and explaining something.
“My daughter was in a state of mental shock, so after waking up, my mother gave me love…” * * * “When I
practice
Seoningikyung, my lower belly gets very hot, but the heat still rushes to my fingertips or my strength is displayed. I never had one.”
The fireman tilted his head and answered Professor Jo’s question.
In fact, you can already have the power of your fingers and toes in your head if you want, but I deliberately hid that fact.
I was worried that Lieutenant Jo would envy him, but it was because I thought it would be better not to let others know about his great talent.
“As expected. Then, in the end, the sword that the Great Warden gave you is amazing.”
Inspector Jo nodded at the fireman’s answer.
I thought that if the sword gifted by the Great Warden was a great sword, and if the fireman drew more power than the limit at the moment of crisis, the sword could cut the sword even if he didn’t show his strength.
“By the way, Captain Jo, who were they trying to kill me? No matter how much I think about it, I don’t think I’ve ever had a grudge against anyone.”
In response to the fireman’s question, Lieutenant Jo paused for a moment before opening his mouth with a short sigh.
‘If I tell them, they might resent me, but I can’t tell them otherwise.’
“Perhaps someone who was in cahoots with bandits is targeting you.”
“Are you the one who was conspiring with the bandits? Could it be that he noticed that I gave the parchment to Lieutenant Cho?”
“It is very likely that. Otherwise, you should have been targeting me, and I wouldn’t have been targeting you.”
stop.
The painter stopped walking, frowned, and pondered something. When the painter stopped walking, Lieutenant Jo also stopped and swallowed dry saliva.
The painter opened his mouth while looking at Lieutenant Jo with a serious expression.
“There are few people who know that I gave the parchment to Lieutenant Cho…. Could it be that you are one of them?”
“It could be one of them, or something that one of the servants in my household said to the people around them could have reached the ears of the infiltrator.”
“I don’t think the servant could have known that I gave you the parchment.”
“Even if you haven’t seen the parchment given, you can guess by examining the circumstances.”
“Then will they target me again in the future?”
“You can aim for it, but I will make it impossible for you to aim for it.”
“how?”
“Until now, I secretly pursued snitches, but now I intend to openly pursue them. If we mobilize soldiers to arrest and interrogate the people around the snitch, they will be busy hiding and won’t have the energy to target you.”
“You can still target me.”
“Hmm, it could be, but it’s not very likely.”
“Low probability is not a safe answer.”
Professor Jo’s face turned red at the fireman’s words.
“If necessary, I will attach a military officer with excellent skills.”
“You can’t attach a military officer to me indefinitely.”
“I’ll stick with the man who was in liaison with the bandit until I catch him.”
“What if there is someone behind the person who colluded with the bandits? Wouldn’t the person behind it target me?”
“That can’t be predicted. No matter how much I say, I can’t give you a military crown indefinitely like you said.”
“In the end, my safety is my own.”
“yes. sorry.”
“I don’t think this is a problem that will end with saying sorry. If I hire an unmanned person to keep me safe, it will cost me a lot of money. And there is no guarantee that the soldier will completely protect me.”
When the painter fired at him, Lieutenant Jo lowered his head like a guilty criminal.
I don’t know how the infiltrator related himself to the fireman, but as a result, the fireman became dangerous.
“Even at the cost of my own money, I will attach a warrior with excellent skills as your bodyguard.”
“How long?”
“I will stick with you until you are sure that you have caught all the snitches and those behind them.”
“Haa~ Actually, that’s not enough, but I can’t be stubborn anymore.”
“sorry.”
“If you’re sorry, please teach me some swordsmanship. After fighting the assailant this time, I think I should at least learn swordsmanship to get out of a crisis situation.”
“Ah got it. I will teach you the secret sword method of the head family.”
“Really. If your parents don’t give you permission, it’s not like you can’t teach them, right?”
“Even though arcane swordsmanship is heavy, it is not as heavy as the Seoninkigyeong that I have already taught you. And among the samurai of the family, there are many who have already learned the secret sword method.”
“Did the warriors of Lieutenant Jo’s family learn only arcane swordsmanship and not the Seoningikyung, then?”
“I am learning Nagigong, which is an improvement of Seonin Kikyung.”
“Hmm, okay. Then, when are you going to teach me the non-sword method?”
“If you want, I can teach you even from today.”
“As you can see, it is difficult right now because of this side, and when the wound heals, I will ask for advice.”
Lieutenant Cho tilted his head as he looked at the bandage on the blood that was wrapped around the fireman’s side.
“When were you hurt? No, when did you get treatment?”
“Before I met the two assailants, I was attacked by another assailant first in the mountain. I was hurt then, and after killing the assailants and treating them, I met the assailants earlier and ran away.”
“Then did you kill three assailants today?”
“yes. What a terrible day.”
“Could it be that the person who asked you to visit you because your wife was sick was also an assassin?”
“yes. But how did you know that?”
“I’m already on my way to Sochon.”
“ah! yes that’s right. He was also in the same relationship with the monster. Come to think of it, let me ask you something.”
“What?”
“Does the military use jeonseo-gu?”
“carrier pigeon! I heard that other prefectures use it, but our prefecture does not use it.”
“why?”
“It’s hard to train pigeons, but there are many birds that prey on pigeons, so there are many times when we can’t deliver important news. It’s a little late, but it’s most certain that someone rides a horse and conveys it. That’s why I’m not writing.”
“Oh, there are downsides to that.”
“Then why did you suddenly ask for the Jeonseo-gu?”
“I saw that the gunman who was targeting me used a pretext.”
“They used a pretext!”
In an instant, Lieutenant Jo’s eyes widened, and after a while, his expression wrinkled.
“Why are you like that?”
“As I said before, pigeons are not easy to train. It takes a lot of manpower, time and money to do my job. It seems that the person who was in liaison with the bandits has a great background.”
As he listened, the painter’s complexion gradually turned to death.
“Is it like a big organization with a great background?”
“Since the bandits moved against the prefecture’s soldiers, it must be seen that the scale is large and even secretive.”
“Damn, then I’ve stepped on shit.”
“…..”
Inspector Jo looked at the painter in contemplation and was speechless. It was Sam who obtained important information, but that meant that the firefighter had become more dangerous.
“I’ll attach two escort warriors.”
“…..”
Lieutenant Jo barely answered the words, but the firefighter did not answer, but grabbed his head and groaned.
‘Should I leave this town at night?’
If the enemy gave up on himself by running away at night, he was willing to do so, but it seemed that the enemy would not give up no matter how much he thought about it.
‘In a few days, the assassin will be attached. haha im going crazy Is it best to not come out of the house under the protection of an escort for now? I hope the assassin won’t come to my house.’
It became complicated as if my head was about to explode.
In the worst case, an assassin could come to the house for a late night raid. Just thinking about such a situation made my blood run dry.
Being assassinated is a problem, but waiting nervously and trembling until the assassin comes is more blood-drying.
There may be damage to the family there.
It is painful when others are hurt because of oneself, but it will be even more painful when family members are hurt.
‘What do we do?’
As I pondered over and over again, I came up with something plausible.
“trap! Yeah, let’s dig a trap. That would be best.”
After thinking about it for a while, Inspector Jo widened her eyes as she saw the fireman suddenly shouting.
“trap! Come to think of it, it might be better to lure the enemy rather than chase them! The idea is amazing.”
“From the point of view of me, Captain Jo, and them, they are big prey, so if you set a trap, they will definitely get caught.”
“I guess so. But how are you going to sell the trap?”
“I have to think about it from now on.”
The fireman’s eyes changed.
I had no intention of using the knowledge of the future other than medicine, but I was thinking of using the knowledge of the future as well for safety.
* * *
“Welcome. Senator.”
When the fireman appeared, Rouge Mae-hyang of Seonhyangru jumped out and greeted her with socks.
The case where she jumps out with tabi is when a dignitary or a rich man comes to spend money, but the fireman jumped out with tabi even though it was not applicable.
“If you know I’m coming at this time, why do you come out wearing socks to welcome me?”
The painter was very surprised when she first ran out in socks, but after it happened several times, he now knew that it was staged.
To be precise, it was Rouge’s attitude that changed when the condition of the initial illness was noticeably alleviated and it became visible that he was getting better.
“Hoho, this has become a habit. I will guide you.”
“Now I can go on my own.”
“Still, this is Seonhyangru and I am the owner. I can’t let you go around alone.”
“I know all the ways…”
When the painter tilted his head and tried to ask, Mae-hyang smiled.
“Mr. Seonhyangru is a gisaeng selling alcohol.”
“It is daytime now.”
“Because it is daytime, we have to be considerate so that the gisaengs can sleep soundly.”
“Ah~ Are you afraid I might be snooping around where gisaengs sleep?”
“Hohoho…. Although you are young, you are still a man.”
The man Rouge knew was a curious and passionate animal.
Of course, if the housewife wants a courtesan, she is willing not to accept a wedding stand, but apart from that, it is her job to take care of the courtesans so that they can rest in peace.
“What the hell do you see me as?”
Mae-hyang shrugged as the painter made a slightly ridiculous expression.
“Let’s look at the name of a young man with the best medical skills in Chohyeon. So just think of it as the old woman’s old heart.”
“Ha ha, I see. Whatever you think.”
The fireman shook his head.
As Maehyang took the lead, the painter followed and pondered more on how to treat Choseol’s disease.
‘I’m almost healed now, but the problem is the remaining scars. If it were a normal person, it wouldn’t matter much, but since I’m a gisaeng who lives on my face, I should get rid of the scars, but what can I do?’
If you could make an ointment containing steroids, you could even get rid of the purulent marks on the bruises, but the problem was that you couldn’t make such an ointment in the environment of this era.
‘Salves and gold spears would have incomparable effects… The problem is that steroids are hormones produced by the adrenal cortex, so they cannot be extracted from nature.’
No matter how much Han Jin-soo remembered, it was impossible to make steroids without state-of-the-art equipment.
If it cannot be made, it is replaced with a similar ingredient, but among the herbs, licorice had a similar ingredient to a steroid called glycyrrhizin.
‘Shall we mix licorice with golden salt? If I make a concentrate and put it in, it seems to have a similar effect, but I’ll have to make it and apply it.’
Licorice is a herbal ingredient anyway, so there will be few side effects. Well, even if side effects occur, it won’t make a big difference to already damaged skin, and if a problem arises, then you can stop.
‘In addition, if the nerves and acupuncture points are constantly stimulated with acupuncture, the effect will be doubled.’
Combining the knowledge of the future with the knowledge of the present seemed to create a very outstanding synergistic effect.
After a while, the two arrived at the back house where Choseol was staying.
In the past, he used to greet the painter lying down, but now he watered the flower garden in the yard and bowed his head toward the painter with his head touching the ground.
“Welcome, Mr. Hwa.”
“How are you feeling?”
“It has improved so much that it does not interfere with my daily life.”
“It’s no longer difficult to go side by side, is it?”
“yes.”
“Now, Maechang’s pathological treatment is almost finished.”
