Episode 268
When you think of parasites, you usually think of something that ends with taking roundworm medicine. However, depending on the parasite, there were cases where it took a person’s life.
‘It looks like Hydatid disease?’
Although it is rarely seen in Korea, it is still one of the parasites that are easy to catch in some regions of the Middle East and Central Asia.
It is a parasite that affects both animals and humans.
Humans become infected when they ingest parasite eggs contained in the feces of sheep or cattle through food or water.
Parasites that enter in this way wander around the body and arrive at places such as the intestines, kidneys, brain, and eyes, where they create a sac-like structure and become parasites.
When it is first formed, there is no problem, but over the years, it grows inside it like a tumor and puts pressure on the organs.
The reason I know this is because Jin Cheon-hee went abroad to do volunteer work and had studied quite a bit about this type of disease at the time.
Doctors often lump them together and call them tapeworms.
‘It’s serious…’
Jin Cheonhee’s complexion worsened.
‘You’ve already gone through the liver, created a cyst in the duodenum, and settled in, right? ‘This person…’
Jin Cheon-hee sighed inwardly as she glanced at the patient.
‘If I hadn’t come, he would have definitely died… Then, in the original history, this person would have died.’
Jin Cheon-hee does not know the exact future.
If it weren’t for Jin Cheon-hee, Han Yi-jeong wouldn’t have been cured, and if that had been the case, the second son of a fool wouldn’t have been assassinated.
Han So-jeong would never have married the handsome man with the idol face in front of her, and King Eun could have probably died of cancer by now.
The future has changed so much.
‘Huh…’
Jin Cheon-hee organized her thoughts and continued her work. And he frowned slightly.
‘This person… I heard he has a chronic illness. Was it a cliffhanger?’
It is nothing compared to Master’s syllable vein.
Trisyllabic vein.
Three veins are cut off.
There are problems with accumulating energy and it is not easy to stay healthy.
Occasionally, pain for unknown reasons must have continued since childhood.
If he had been born as a commoner, he would have died young, but it was his luck to be born as a prince of the kingdom.

Arthrosis.
Although it is said to be a symptom of a pulse being cut off, the symptom of a blocked pulse is also called a ruptured pulse.
The worst of them all is Master’s syllable vein.
All nine acupuncture points are blocked due to yin energy, so they are called nine syllable veins.
‘So what is a trisyllabic vein?’
Although it could simply be explained as three Macs being disconnected.
Still, it is not completely cut off. It’s not completely closed.
It could be said that it has become so narrow that it cannot function properly.
You always need to be careful about what you eat and move around, but since it is a winter-free town where all four seasons are summer, there is no need to worry about dying from the cold.
‘There must be a lot of things to pay attention to during surgery, right?’
Cysts created by parasites in the body need to be removed, and the two largest ones are.
After conducting a more intensive pulse check here, two additional locations were discovered.
There are four places in total.
‘They say you have to pay attention to the veins and remove them…’
Since the teacher was boneless and a martial arts expert, he had the stamina to endure the surgery.
The three princes learned martial arts to improve their health, but they were nothing compared to their teacher.
‘The problem is that the surgery time will likely be longer. Additionally, bleeding must be reduced to a minimum. ‘Nothing is easy, starting with blood pressure management.’
White House members are needed.
Even if his skills are not at the level of Bonsan, he must be at the level of a member of the Bunta Council.
Fortunately, there is still time.
First, I have to explain this situation to the three princes.
‘Uh… where should I start talking about the symptoms? Is there a concept of parasites in this day and age? No, before that, this person was a prince. Did you have a chance to learn something like that?’
First, Jin Cheon-hee step-by-step explained the basic knowledge about parasites and infection routes at a beginner’s level.
It took about 2 minutes (approximately 30 minutes), but shouldn’t we make them understand first?
He said it right after that.
“The Three Princes are infected with this parasite. Usually, they live in the intestines and don’t cause much harm, but sometimes there are children who go astray. “In particular, since this area is hot all year round, we assume that unlike areas with winter, there are deadly parasites living there.”
To eradicate this, toilet maintenance and water and sewage filtration facilities are needed, but it is someone else’s land anyway.
There is too much to do to be a dreamer.
“Still, the people of this area said that, based on the wisdom of their ancestors, they do not drink directly from the water of the oasis, so I think that might be their main habitat.”
Of course, these parasites will also be present in the well water here.
However, it can be said that the tradition of drinking water only from designated wells and boiling even the floating water has saved the people of this region.
“So, you need surgery, and since you have a trisyllabic vein, it is expected that there will be a lot of bleeding. You may die from bleeding during surgery. Even if you don’t die, you may still have brain damage.”
“….”
The three princes’ expression darkened. However, you cannot make a choice if you do not know the risks. Telling the truth is a basic duty of a lawmaker.
However, I also thought about how to respond.
Jin Cheon-hee continued.
“To prevent that, blood transfusion and manpower are absolutely necessary, and to prepare for it, we need Baekrin’s Gak Bunta.”
The Three Princes shook their heads.
“However, I understand that there is no bunta in Wanong.”
In Wannong, a new medical city where healing shamans are prevalent, there is no chance for an old-fashioned central medical office to settle down.
Whether the treatment is successful or a temporary problem, once you taste this miraculous treatment that says, ‘The results will be shown in 5 minutes!’, the Joongwon Uibang, which makes a hearty decoction, is bound to look like beef bone soup.
Also, didn’t he have the showmanship to do the Dum Chit Dum Chit dance while holding a leaf next to him even though he was dying of pain?
Relaxed treatment does not suit the people here.
So, Baeklin Uigak is not able to advance into Wanong, and the same goes for Hwaju Uigak, which is a competing Uigak.
Heukjeonuikgak originally did not have much Bunta and was a self-taught student.
If a patient dies because they can’t find the doctor’s room, that’s their life.
“So please deliver it!”
“yes?”
“Now is the time for a new era in the midfield. All you have to do is go to the next city and deliver my staff… no, my council members!”
“Delivery to the doctor’s office… What happens if I don’t receive the delivery?”
Well… the cyst will grow bigger and bigger, and if it bursts with a big shock, the baby insects inside it will come pouring out.
Next time, the number of cysts will be doubled and revived.
If any of them enter an important organ such as the brain, it becomes extremely dangerous.
First of all, I cannot bear to explain this process in detail.
Professor Jin decided to consider the patient’s mental health.
“Well… I’m going to die. “There is a bit of a difference in time.”
“…okay.”
Did you notice that many steps were omitted?
First, the three princes nodded.
“If you spend money, you can buy time. “We will immediately arrange for the attendants and messengers from above and deliver them.”
“I will write down a list of people and materials needed.”
“But… you will have to cross the desert and run non-stop for twenty days to get to the area where Baeklin’s Pavilion is located. Until then…”
He is asking whether he will be alive until then.
Actually, I should be worried.
“I will take your pulse every day and check your condition. Also, from now on, never do anything too strenuous and be careful of shocks. “It would be best if you could continue to stay here.”
We will have to continue to monitor his condition, but his life does not seem to be in immediate danger.
Well, I don’t think the prince will go somewhere and do a secret dance, so I think it’ll probably be okay, but we shouldn’t forget to emphasize this.
Because the concept of ‘not overdoing it’ among people of this era is very different from the modern concept.
The Three Princes also nodded as if they had something in mind.
“Oh, and you are not allowed to receive any more magical treatment.”
“Why?”
“This is because the parasites that survived the art of purification grow vigorously in the art of regeneration.”
“Ugh…!”
The three princes look despairing, as if the past of receiving magical treatment without knowing much about them has passed by like a flash of light.
“Well, it’s strange that if you get treatment, instead of getting better, it just gets more painful.”
If witchcraft treatment is used well, it can accomplish things that medical treatment cannot, but if it is used incorrectly, it can just end up getting lost.
In the meantime, the three princes raised Inchung beautifully using magical treatment as prenatal education.
Sleep well, our insect. In the front yard and the back garden~ camels and horse bandits~
“Oh, and I have one more favor to ask you.”
Jin Cheon-hee said.
“Please tell me anything.”
The three princes’ expressions become quite solemn as their lives are at stake.
* * *
Eunwangya’s bee-mose water.
After soaking in a bathtub close to poisonous liquid, gold needles are inserted into the body’s Qi and blood points to expel waste.
The method of washing beolmos is slightly different for each sect, but the same thing is that the caster who performs it requires a lot of skill.
In that respect, there was no problem with Jin Cheon-hee alone.
“Ugh….”
“Would you like me to gag you?”
“Are you sure you won’t say anything until the very end?”
“Do you want to have less pain and a longer pain, or do you want to have more pain and get it over with quickly?”
“That’s really obnoxious.”
“ha ha ha.”
Jin Cheon-hee smiled awkwardly and left the needle.
“Shall we tell something funny?”
“Ugh… I guess that would be better.”
Hmm, what should I talk about?
Jin Cheon-hee’s eyes were shaking slightly, but for a moment, she decided to say whatever came to mind.
“Do you know the story about when I went to Yongbong branch?”
“I know I won. “I had to listen to the information in my own way, but as far as the story told by the person involved… ugh… it won’t work…!”
“…Ah, this was a very painful acupuncture point. “But if you’re going to stab me, it’s better to do it suddenly.”
“Usually they do it after knocking them out or giving them sleeping pills.”
“That’s what kids do. Eunwangya needs to grow up a bit. “There is nothing we can do about it because there is so much turbidity accumulating.”
“I’m dying… this!”
“I had crab meat soup there and it was really delicious. “I have to go eat it again sometime, maybe at the next Yongbong branch meeting.”
Insert the next needle and proceed.
“I heard you cook everything, but what about making it yourself…?”
With those words, Eunwangya suppresses her moans again.
“It doesn’t taste like that. I’m sure the chef has his own secret secret, but I can’t figure it out. Ah, but I made crab stew with the ruined crabs and it was amazing.”
Sigh!
