Episode 991
Namgoongun said.
“How about calming down your anger and having a drink at the guesthouse?”
“I heard that the head of the Namgung family stopped drinking.”
“Hahaha, I stopped talking, but the natives here are very talkative. “Maybe if we have a drink, everyone will come to listen to Moyong Dahyeop’s nameless song.”
He said that and tapped his shoulder.
It means that even though you can’t drink together, you should still go there hoping for a good meeting.
As the head of the Nangong family personally set the scene, Mo Yongcheng could not get angry anymore and nodded.
“I understand. “I will listen to what my Namgung matriarch says.”
Seeing that scene, Sima Hui whispered to Jin Cheonhui.
“As the head of the family, you lack a lot of dignity, but you are good at getting things done, right? Pink indeed…”
Sima-hye, a disciple who strangely learned Jincheon-hui’s language.
Master Jin Cheon-hee answered.
“Like the previous head of the family, I don’t have the temperament to clear my throat while leading a bodyguard. Brother Namgung… So the elders are very dissatisfied, but on the contrary, he is very popular among young warriors.”
The seal of the communal faction also expressed its gratitude to Namgung Un.
“thank you. The head of the Namgung family. Thanks to you, my life was saved. “I owe you a lot.”
“At most, we only exchanged a few words. “With that, I owed money to the communal faction, so Namgung Mo also has a surplus.”
He laughs mischievously while doing so.
“Hehehe, I will never be able to defeat my Namgung matriarch. “I will never forget this grace for the rest of my life.”
Namgungun smiled brightly and sent the Daoist of the communal faction away.
This time on the other side.
“I know a place that tastes better than the one I sent you earlier. Would you like to go there? “I saved my recommendation on purpose.”
“Oh, where is it?”
Naturally, measures were taken to prevent the two warriors from encountering each other again.
At that time, Jin Cheon-hee intervened.
“If it’s okay, I think I can treat the wound on your thigh.”
“Oh Jin Au? “How can you be here?”
Only then did Namgoongun recognize Jin Cheonhee and ask in surprise.
“That’s what I’m asking. “Brother Namgung, why are you here, leaving Se-ga behind?”
“Something came up and I was on my way to Sacheondanga. “What about you?”
“I also have work to do…”
It was fascinating.
They both have something to do and are on their way to Sacheondanga.
Namgoongun crossed his arms and nodded.
“Huh, is there such a coincidence?”
* * *
I gave first aid to the injured Buddhist monk and told him to head to the nearest medical room.
The guest left a message that it would not be too late to go later.
The communal group leader left a message of gratitude.
And the three of them went to have a meal at the guesthouse they had reserved in advance.
As soon as I sat down, Namgoongwoon spoke.
“oh. Was this beautiful woman the younger brother of Sima!”
“Sama awyo?”
“Namgoong is an unusual person who likes to call everyone younger than him ‘brother’.”
“Wow… I see. “So what if he’s older than you?”
“He wanted to call me brother. And they just force it…”
“Heh…?”
“no. What kind of monster are you turning me into? “I also do this while watching people!”
Sima Hui covered her mouth with her sleeve and laughed, then lightly expressed her respect.
“Sama Hye, head of the Baekrin Ui Pavilion, is meeting with the head of the Nangung family.”
“Look at my mind. I didn’t even think about saying hello formally. As you know, I am Namgung Un, the head of the Namgung family, but please just call me Namgung Un.”
“We’ll call it Nangung Daegyeop.”
“The grand agreement is too much. “Please call me Namgung Sohyeop.”
Surprisingly, Namgung Yun also did not ask Sima Hye to call him Namgung brother.
Jin Cheonhee thought.
‘Surprisingly, the line between men and women is clear.’
In this cut-throat Confucian society, he seems to be wary of Sima Hye, who was called “brother” and not even married, getting into trouble for no reason.
‘It looks rough, but this thing looks like a knife.’
Plus one more thing.
Behind Sima Hui is Sima Hyeon.
If even a rumor spreads that he forced his younger brother to call him brother, there is no way Sima Xuan would stay quiet.
Because Sima Hyeon is a guy who will literally do ‘anything’ for Hye Ah.
I don’t know if he calculated it that way or not, but at least it seemed good that he clearly kept the line as the head of the family.
Jin Cheon-hee asked.
“Brother Namgung, why are you stopping by Sacheondang Street?”
“I have a personal event to attend. “The details are a secret.”
Is it a secret secret?
Jin Cheon-hee’s eyes shine blue.
It was because I had an idea.
Namgoongun said cheerfully.
“Then how about sharing a drink during this meeting?”
Jang!
It was a good night with a good relationship.
* * *
For the first time in a long time, I was able to rest in a guesthouse rather than on a ship.
All the members of the Baeklin Council took up rooms with happy expressions, and Jin Cheon-hee and Nam Gung-un took separate rooms in the highest part of the guest room.
The reason was no different.
‘If the head of the Namgung family is one, there is a good chance that an assassin will come.’
Rather than going down to the middle floor and getting the lawmakers involved, I thought it might be better to just have the assassin come down through the roof from the top.
As Hwanggu and Noejin were unpacking and scratching their clothes, Namgoongun opened his mouth.
“You seem to have guessed why I am going to Sacheondanga.”
“…I do not know. “It seems like Namgung has a good reason.”
“It seems like they know it and are trying to cover it up.”
“I’m just being careful not to get involved in family fights.”
“….”
That already answered the question to some extent.
Seeing that, Namgoongun tapped Jin Cheonhee on the shoulder.
“You really are Jin Auro, if you understand that far. Do you despise me?”
“…What is there to despise? I’m not a good person, I’m just a person busy trying to survive. “I just hope that Namgoong’s matter is resolved well.”
Those words were sincere.
Jin Cheon-hee does not despise Nam Gung-un.
In the first place, you have experienced many things at Uigak and you know how Gangho works, right?
The time of innocence is over.
And that Namgoong Woon is struggling to find a ‘realistic’ solution in this world overflowing with swords.
‘By modern standards, all my sworn brothers are murderers. The teacher is a murderer, the person you meet soon is a murderer, your enemies and allies are all murderers. My hands… aren’t clean anymore.’
If you don’t kill it, you die.
In order to live in the whirlpool of Eunwon, you must fight with a sword.
In a world like this, I have no intention of preaching as if I am alone.
I don’t deserve it.
I just hope that I take the right path that I believe in at that moment.
“There was something you said to me after the fight against the Demon Cult. “If you have one favor to ask, I will grant it.”
“…That’s right.”
“Is that promise still the same?”
“….”
Jin Cheonhee closes her eyes.
“…I said I would listen to some, but not all. yes. “I intend to do so.”
Ha-ryun’s debt was also Jin Cheon-hee’s debt.
Those who risk their lives to protect their younger brothers are rewarded accordingly.
Because that is Kangho’s kindness.
“That’s enough.”
Namgoongwoon grinned.
He seemed happy that Jin Cheon-hee was on his side.
* * *
The group went straight on the boat like that.
Since the Yangtze River extends to Sacheon Province, it was possible to reach Sacheon Province by sailing for a few days.
Uibin, Sichuan Province.
It is located at the southern end of Sichuan Province as a port of the Yangtze River.
To get to the place where Sacheondangga is located, we had to travel by land for several more days.
The carriage was taken out of the ship and the luggage was unloaded.
Since the ship belonged to Baeklin Uigak, it was decided to wait anchored at the port.
I have to use it again when I go back.
After getting off everything, I tried to head towards Sacheondangga, but I was stopped.
This means that Jin Cheon-hee saw the patients as soon as they got off the boat.
“No… the epidemic was spreading to this extent?”
One side of the port.
In a dark place, there was no tent, just a sheet of cloth, and the patients were lying on it.
The patients seemed to have vomited while lying down, and the surroundings were disorganized, and people who appeared to be doctors with white cloths wrapped around their mouths were seen walking around.
Jin Cheon-hee quickly met with local lawmakers and listened to their stories.
After listening to the conversation, I thought about it.
‘The doctors classified them according to disease, but the ones they couldn’t classify until the end were yellow fever virus and malaria… Fortunately, doctors who were able to manage the disease arrived and separated them.’
Yellow fever and sclerosis have similar symptoms when viewed externally, so it is very difficult to distinguish them.
Fortunately, in this world, there is kiiii, so if there is a doctor who can do Jinkijinmaek, it is possible to distinguish them.
If the symptom is yellow fever and ileal blood is detected through a pulse, it is classified as hakjeol.
This is similar to the time when the prince of the outside world was treated in the past, but when an illness occurs due to parasites, ileal blood is often detected.
In this way, academic quality is distinguished in the central government.
‘First of all, there is virtually no cure for yellow fever.’
It is very difficult to treat yellow fever even with today’s technology and in the future.
However, symptomatic treatment was possible.
The extent of administering intravenous fluids and providing fever reducers.
The biggest problem is acute renal failure, and there are ways for doctors to come and force people to continue living their lives.
But even so, it is extremely rare for it to return to its original state.
There is no other way than to pray that the patient does not get seriously ill and that the patient recovers.
‘They say the mosquito that carries yellow fever mainly lives in South Africa and Central and South America… but it also lives here in the Central Plains.’
I learned about potatoes and tomatoes from the time they existed in the Chinese Continent.
If good crops grow, naturally harmful ones will also grow.
There is not only human comfort in the world.
And then.
‘malaria.’
An infectious disease transmitted by mosquitoes.
To prevent this, humans used to take medicine orally in advance.
The country recommends taking it before going to a malaria-risk country, but it is always good to listen.
You should usually start taking it a few days before you go to the country you are traveling to and continue taking it according to the dosage prescribed by your doctor.
Strictly speaking, it is a different form from a vaccine.
If you stop eating, it just goes back to normal after a while.
‘There is a cure, but if you miss the timing, you could die.’
The mortality rate for severe malaria in modern Earth is approximately 10%.
Even if treatment is used, the fatality rate can skyrocket depending on the patient’s age, past medical history, and physical strength.
One scholar once claimed that half of all humanity died from malaria.
Today, it is an exaggeration to say that, and it is more common to say that 10% to 20% of people may have been killed.
‘Actually, 10-20% of all humanity is a crazy high number.’
And surprisingly, many people in modern times still die from malaria.
It is the mortal enemy of mankind, of which records have been preserved since ancient Egypt.
Jin Cheon-hee was dumbfounded, but then regained her composure.
And gave instructions.
“I will treat and move from here. Baekrin University sends someone to Sacheondangga and informs them that they are going to Uibin to provide treatment. The head of the Sima family should pitch a tent in an open space outside Uibin and set up the equipment. I will go to the government office and get permission. “What will you do, Namgung?”
“I will help you here. “I know how to do Qigong treatment now.”
In a world without ventilators or dialysis machines, Qigong treatment is almost the only lifeline.
“hmm…. Now that I think about it, you once said that you would like to learn medicine. It would be helpful if you could at least learn the basics, so… please.”
The name of the incinerator falls.
Then, even the upper and lower houses of parliament began to move quickly.
“Come on, let’s start with the formation.”
“Nursing Party lawmakers, rally!”
“Only the National Assembly members of the Research Party gather together!”
Everything is in order, as if the nerves are moving after receiving commands from the brain.
In a way, the movement is fast enough to be called an army.
In it, Jin Cheon-hee began to lead everyone.
Namgoongun stuck out his tongue at that sight.
‘No, even Sega’s military personnel are not this neat…’
How on earth can the lawmakers, who are no different from the common people, be so astute?
These are movements that seem to have been practiced dozens or hundreds of times.
Each and every one of them had a system.
‘Even though it’s a lawmaker’s job, if I do this poorly, I’ll be scolded by my brother Jin.’
I refuse to be treated like a burden.
Namgoongun also started moving to move something.
The sight of a boneless body carrying multiple loads was powerful in itself, and all the lawmakers watching clicked their tongues.
“You move something that needs to be moved by cart, all at once without even using your own strength. “You really are amazing.”
“I heard that he is a friend of our Lord Sogak, and he seems very reassuring.”
At that time, Sima Hui muttered softly.
“Pink indeed.”
“hmm?”
Although he couldn’t understand what it meant, Namgoongun took it as a compliment.
‘I guess it means some kind of charlatan.’
pink.
The word that started with Jin Cheon-hee passed through Sima-hye and entered Namgung-un.
Namgoongun memorized that word.
‘It’s definitely a word that means a strong and broad-minded group.’
It was the moment when the word pink spread throughout the midfield.
