I Reincarnated as a Legendary Surgeon

Episode 46. Merchants are just merchants (2)

Lieutenant Jo, who came to receive treatment, brought a special gift today.

It brought the retractor, needle holder, and Kelly made by Pyochung.

It’s a lot of different things…..

‘Hoo! I made this quite well.’

The fireman was a little startled inwardly as he inspected the utensils.

Although it is a bit less delicate than modern instruments, it was still usable enough.

‘I’ll have to teach Obo how to use this.’

The painter thought that if Oh Bo assisted him in his operation, he would be able to perform a major operation.

According to the painter, Obo was not afraid of blood and easily touched dirty things, whether it was because of the environment he had lived in or because he had gone through a lot of harsh things.

In my experience so far, such people have done well as surgical assistants.

In fact, many doctors did not choose surgery because they had trauma from seeing blood or touching internal organs.

“How are you? Did you make it as you ordered?”

In response to Lieutenant Jo’s question, the painter nodded with a satisfied expression.

“yes. Very well made.”

“Even though the chieftain has a bad personality, his skills are excellent.”

When the painter was satisfied, Lieutenant Jo smiled as well.

“When I requested it, I put it off every day, but when the Lieutenant asked for it, he made it right away.”

“I didn’t make it right away because I asked for it, but my brother already made it, but he said he couldn’t do it because he didn’t have time. I asked for a car like that, so it was done right away.”

“Anyway, it was made quickly thanks to the instructor.”

“Well, if you think so, I’m grateful.”

“Oh, by the way, how much did you pay for it?”

“Why do you want to give it to me?”

“Of course I have to.”

“done. Think of it as a gift I gave you.”

“It’s not like you didn’t give money to the chief by chance using the command of the military officer.”

“I gave the order, but it’s an outsourcing contractor, so if you don’t pay me, will that picky bastard stay still?”

“So how much did you pay for it?”

“It’s a small amount, so don’t worry about it.”

“I’m just curious.”

“Looks like he’s thinking of figuring out the amount and deducting it from my medical bills, but don’t even think about that.”

“I don’t think so, I’m just curious.”

“I will not teach you.”

“If you don’t tell me, I will ask the Emperor.”

“Even Prince Huang will not teach you.”

“Then I’ll go directly to the great smith and ask him.”

“Anyway.”

When Inspector Jo finally refused to teach him, the fireman let out a deep sigh and shrugged his shoulders.

“Eh, I see. I just don’t know. I will disinfect it, so stretch your feet.”

After a while, the fireman finished disinfecting Lieutenant Cho’s feet, wrapped them in a bandage, and nodded.

‘At this rate, I don’t need to inject penicillin anymore.’

“The treatment is almost over.”

“huh? Aren’t you going to use that hollow needle today?”

When the painter refused to let go of the injection, Inspector Jo put on a puzzled expression.

“Yes, I feel much better, so I don’t have to inject any more medicine.”

“That’s right. Still, just in case you don’t know, could you inject the medicine for today?”

“Anything in excess is poison. It’s all healed, so don’t worry anymore and now you just have to go back and take good care of it at home as I taught you. You don’t have to come tomorrow. You can drop by in a few days or so.”

“You’re doing this because I didn’t teach you the price of that equipment, right?”

“I am not that timid.”

“Are you really all better? Do I still have a lot of troubles?”

Lieutenant Jo touched his neck and shoulders and gave a slightly pathetic expression.

“The aftereffects will last for another month or so. It’s because the lieutenant arrived late for treatment, so don’t blame me.”

“Oops, that’s the sound again. I, who came late, is a sinner. Anyway, if you don’t need to come now, today will be the last time I’ll be guiding you.”

The fireman had been learning the Seonin flag for about 10 days from Professor Jo.

“Didn’t you say yesterday that you had nothing more to say?”

“That’s true, but it’s the last time, so you have to watch it. And if you practice steadily in the future, you have to talk about the symptoms that will appear.”

“Then let’s go to the training ground.”

“let’s go.”

When Hwabu and Gyowi headed to the training ground, Hwanggunhu followed.

“Prince Hwang.”

“Your teacher.”

“Today, close your ears when you stand guard outside.”

“all right.”

After a while, when Gunhu Hwang, who arrived at the empty house, went out the door, the painter demonstrated the Seonin Ki-kyung from beginning to end in front of Gyo.

Everything in the painter, who moved his limbs and breathed, was incomparably smoother and softer at first.

Inspector Jo was satisfied with the fireman’s movements on the inside, but clicked his tongue on the outside.

“Tsk, I still don’t like breathing, but I’m not out of the box, so I won’t say anything more. Instead, always pay attention to your breathing as you practice.”

After the demonstration, the painter nodded his head with a heavy breath.

“yes.”

“When I see it later, I shouldn’t frown.”

“All right.”

“By the way, I think the bet should have settled on Danjeon’s side, but don’t you feel something hot stirring in your lower stomach these days?”

“I felt something hot in my stomach from the first day.”

When the painter tilted his head as he touched his lower stomach, Lieutenant Jo clicked his tongue again.

“Tsk, on the first day, I had a fever because I moved my body excessively. It’s a little different from that kind of thing… For example, when you drink very strong alcohol, it’s like something hot like a fireball goes down your esophagus. It’s like you don’t feel that kind of heat deep inside your belly, do you?”

The fireman replied that he had felt that kind of heat from the first day, but that he had started to feel it recently because he thought Lieutenant Jo would click his tongue again.

Upon hearing the fireman’s words, Lieutenant Jo nodded and put on a satisfied expression.

“The time the bet was formed is similar to mine.”

“You say bet on this hot thing.”

“yes. Well, those who have undergone unique training feel a sensation other than heat, but most people who have practiced Qigong feel the same kind of heat as you.”

“What is your unique training?”

“It is said that there are people who train while eating poison or ice. I’ve never seen it myself, but I heard about it from my grandfather before.”

“Do you eat poison or ice? Ice can be eaten instead of water, but if you eat poison, it will be harmful to the human body.”

“Eat very little so you don’t die so your body adapts to the poison. If you go to Sacheon, there are people who do such unique training, but I don’t know too much.”

“Is there any benefit to be gained by training to the point of eating poison like that?”

“What would happen if we poisoned arrows or swords and attacked them? The victim won’t be poisoned even if he suffers only minor wounds.”

“I guess so.”

“On the other hand, those who have become resistant to poison are not poisoned and only receive minor injuries. Who will have the advantage in a fight?”

“Ah, a person with resistance to poison would have an advantage.”

The painter put on an expression of understanding.

“yes. In fact, if I hadn’t been there for you, I would have died, even if I was stabbed by the barbed wire that the bandits had scattered. I killed the bandit boss that day, but on the other hand, I would have died too, so the poison is scary.”

“okay.”

“Well, that’s about the poison, but the important thing is that you have to learn to control the heat wriggling in your belly from now on.”

“Cover the heat?”

“Yes, it is called Ungijosik in a slightly noble language, but actually it is not that great, and it refers to sending energy from the lower abdomen to the hands, feet, head, etc. through breathing.”

“ah! Do you send this heat from your lower abdomen to your hands and feet?”

“Yes. Please touch my hand once.”

When Lieutenant Jo took a deep breath and held out his hand, the painter touched his hand.

“uh!”

Suddenly, the fireman’s eyes widened.

The heat that human hands cannot hold stayed in the palm of Professor Cho’s palm.

“how is it? Is it very hot?”

“Your hands are like roasted sweet potatoes taken out of a charcoal fire.”

“Huh~ It became hot because I sent the heat from the lower abdomen to my hand.”

“How did you send it?”

“As you breathe in while tightening your belly, create an imaginary passageway from your belly to your hands. And I think the heat flows through that passage.”

Sew.

The fireman thought that, as Lieutenant Jo told him, he made a virtual passage in his own way and the heat flowed.

However, the heat remained in the Danjeon and did not move.

“Is the heat still?”

“Don’t think lightly, you have to be very specific and earnest. Only then will the heat flow.”

The painter took another breath and desperately wanted the heat to go away with his palms.

However, the heat just wriggled and did not move.

“I’m not moving.”

“It’s not going to be easy from the beginning. I struggled for months and could barely move. Anyway, don’t give up just because it doesn’t work, and even if I don’t guide you, continue to practice with an earnest heart.”

“all right. But if the heat goes to the palm of your hand like that, does anything change?”

“Of course not. Look Carefully.”

pug. Kwajijik.

When Lieutenant Cho hit the wooden cutting board next to him with his fist, the wooden cutting board was smashed like a thin pine board.

“Wow wow! Incredible.”

The fireman was really surprised.

Although it is said to be a chopping board left in the yard because no one lived there, it was still thicker than the vertical wall of Ohsujeon.

The wooden chopping board, which seemed to be split only with an axe, was shattered by a person’s punch.

“I saw it. If the bet extends to the hand, it allows you to create this incredible power.”

“okay.”

“If I had been in normal shape, I would have shown something even greater, but now I can only show this much. Anyway, since this kind of power is generated, practice earnestly and specifically with aspirations.”

“All right.”

“This is all I can teach you. How much will my treatment cost, anyway?”

“Why do you ask for the cost of treatment when Nagai Gigong pays for the equipment instead?”

“I did it because I was grateful, and I have to pay for the treatment separately.”

“I’m sure you decided to cut through the treatment cost and internal labor.”

“I remember I decided to do the same. But no matter how much I think about it, that is nothing compared to the price of my life. So tell me how much the treatment costs.”

“I have no intention of ever paying for treatment. Don’t make me a shameless person.”

When the painter straightened up, Inspector Jo tried to say something more, but stopped.

“Ttk, can you give me the monthly salary of a doctor or boots by doing business like that?”

“Give enough and have more.”

“Okay, I got it. Since you’re so serious, I won’t ask any more. By the way, you said you went to the Songga Merchant the other day, did you rent the abandoned mine?”

“I just gave up by asking for an outrageous amount.”

“How much did you pay?”

“If you intend to intervene, please stop. I’m just thinking of building a crypt by looking for a suitable place nearby.”

“Okay, when people have a relationship with me, they turn on twin wicks in their eyes to benefit somehow, but you don’t do that, so it’s frustrating.”

“It’s because I’ve already made a lot of gains.”

“I get it. If you are, then I won’t be involved any more. Anyway, I had a lot of trouble with treatment.”

“Professor Jo also had a hard time receiving treatment. In about five days or so, I will visit the instructor and take a look at the progress.”

“okay. Oh, and if you can move the bet, please tell me.”

“Is there another next step?”

“If there is, there is, and if there is not, there is no, so you will know at that time.”

“What do you mean?”

“Anyway, see you in five days. More specifically, I had to get permission from my father.”

“If I don’t get permission, I don’t have to go.”

“Come anyway. I can’t give you a direct answer, but I can give you directions.”

“Can’t you just tell me now?”

“Not now. Rather, it could be poison to you.”

“What do you mean?”

“Anyway, when the time comes, you will know what I am talking about. Of course, you have to find me to find out.”

“All right. I’ll be sure to find you.”

“Then see you in 5 days. Oh, that day is my day off, so don’t come to the military office and come home.”

“yes.”

After a while, Lieutenant Jo left in a carriage with Prince Hwang.
