Episode 56:
Master said.
“Can you take a pulse?”
Jin Cheonhee gritted her teeth.
When I looked at him, it seemed like the teacher was also in favor of amputation. However, one last thing is to check what your student’s opinion is.
Jin Cheon-hee used the Five Elements Divine Technique to look inside.
The force of pure water entered the patient.
Soon, Jin Cheonhee’s eyelids slowly opened.
“We can save the bridge.”
“What!?”
The members of the shipping company shouted with bewildered faces. Finally, he shook his fist and spoke urgently.
“You must not fall for the wicked tricks of Baekrin Uigak, who are trying to gain merit for the king.”
Yuho said.
“Did you say you were evil just now?”
“How can it not be outrageous to say that a patient who needs amputation can be saved without amputation?”
King Zhou was lost in thought and then asked Jin Tianxi.
“Can you really save my leg?”
Jin Cheon-hee said.
“Master, you probably think the same as me. You can save it with Baekrin’s medical techniques. “I can’t give you a definitive answer, though.”
After taking the pulse, the patient’s condition was a type 3 open fracture, a contaminated wound, and the muscles were also severely damaged.
Needless to say, the bone fragments were severely misaligned.
Among the misfortunes, fortunately, the artery was clean without any major damage. However, there was no change in the fact that it was a dangerous surgery.
Even though the sire was delirious from extreme pain, he was still holding on.
It was a tremendous mental power that modern people’s common sense could not match.
“Look! You say you’re not sure! “He is using his disciples to plot an evil plan.”
‘What kind of evil plan is this?’
At that time, Zhuge Lin grabbed Jin Tianxi’s shoulder.
He looked down at Jin Tianxi gently.
‘Leave it to me. Hee-ya.’
His actions said so.
Zegalin said.
“There is no such thing as a great intention to plot evil schemes against the king of the world. It is up to the king to decide. If you cut it, you will definitely be able to survive. However, you will not be able to use your legs for the rest of your life. “If you want to survive, you will have to take a risk.”
“….”
“But if you succeed, you will be able to dance again even if it is as difficult as before.”
said the sire.
“Wang… please… I beg you. “It won’t work if you cut off my leg.”
“Rang Lang….”
“If you would rather cut off my legs, please cut off my head.”
“Lang Lang… How can you say such things to me? That seems heartless. How can you say something like that about me?…”
“….”
The sire did not answer.
I just stared at the ceiling.
“A poisonous thing. bad. You tore my heart like this…”
“King…”
“In your entire life, you have never asked me for anything. “I tried to give you countless gold and silver treasures, but you wouldn’t just accept them.”
“This is my only request….”
“That is the first and only request Lang Lang made to me.”
She stroked her sire’s head.
Eventually, he said he had made up his mind.
“Cut it.”
“Wang! King! Please kill me instead! King! “Ugh!”
At that moment, the sire stood up. Then he screamed in intense pain and tried to fall out of bed.
King Zhou was startled and ran to grab his body and hug him.
Her hands were very careful, as if she was hugging the most precious glass bead in the world.
“What can you do with me? Lang Lang! I can’t abandon you “Even if it’s your only request, I can’t grant it!”
King Zhou laughed like a man who had lost his mind.
The heavy atmosphere weighed down my consciousness. A pressure so strong that no one can utter a single word fills the air.
Finally, King Zhou opened his mouth, as if he had made up his mind.
“I can’t help it. It’s okay even if I die. If you ask me to do that, how can I refuse? “Don’t cut it.”
The sire held the king’s hand. But King Zhou shook off his touch.
“Rang Lang, you are such a bad sire.”
Her voice was deep and wet.
King Zhou went out without looking back at his call.
After King Zhou left, the air became much better.
Jin Cheonhee let out a small breath.
‘The guardian’s choice has been made. And the patient also strongly wants it. We must save his leg.’
If you die even if you cut it, and if you die even if you don’t cut it, there is only one answer.
There is no choice but to save it in a way outside of the novel.
At that time, the oldest member of the Shipper Council spoke.
“I cannot forgive. Baekrin’s Gak… Putting a patient who could definitely be saved to the brink of death in order to gain merit. “Did you say it was Jin Cheon-hee?”
Jin Tianxi looked at Hua Zhou Gayuan.
“Yes, it is.”
“I will not forget you. I will also report this to Yakseon. “I will clearly tell you what your tongue has done!”
Even if the king had gone out, it seems he couldn’t say anything harsher because it was in the presence of his sire.
However, the venom was so vivid that everyone frowned.
Jin Cheon-hee calmly drank it in. Then he grabbed the hem of Master’s clothes with one hand. It was a signal not to step forward.
‘If I say I know the future, I’ll be treated like a crazy person.’
That was a secret that could never be revealed.
‘It’s so hard to save one person.’
The sensations I felt when treating Gung-gwi’s daughter, Wang Gak-yeon, came flooding back to me.
Actually, it was. Operating on people has always been a scary act.
But Jin Cheon-hee knew the ending of this story.
‘You can’t leave here. ‘Because I am the only one who knows the patient’s future.’
If you hadn’t made the decision, you wouldn’t know. Now that you’ve already made the decision. He was Jin Cheon-hee’s patient. Jin Cheon-hee looked at the patient’s face.
The sire looked at the two with a sad expression.
It is a face prepared for death.
Do you think that dying here would be an honorable death?
‘You’re making an expression that I don’t like.’
It shouldn’t have been that way. I liked the face that was so obsessed with life.
Such patients endure well and recover well.
-Smile. It’s just right to be obnoxious.
The voice of a senior from his youth resonates deeper than Jin Cheon-hee’s cochlea.
This is advice from someone who no longer exists.
However, Jin Cheon-hee pulled her facial muscles with all her might and smiled shamelessly.
As my senior said, it was important to pull it just enough to make it look ridiculous.
“Can Hwaju-gak be saved?”
“What?”
“I asked if there was a way to save the leg and the patient’s life.”
“Shouldn’t we just cut off the leg?”
“…That means there isn’t one.”
Jin Cheon-hee’s words turned into a sword and were aimed at the tip of Hwaju Gakwon’s chin.
When all the members of the Hwaseong Council hesitated and failed to answer, the expressions on their faces returned to their original state as if everyone in the Baekrin Council were watching.
The game is over.
Unless an alternative could be presented, Jin Cheon-hee won.
Zegalin said.
“Foreigners, please leave. “We must prepare for treatment now.”
It was a congratulatory message.
Crumbling –
the members of Hwaju had to go outside, chewing their molars vigorously.
Jin Cheon-hee looked at the patient’s expression.
A face distorted with anxiety comes into view.
‘You can become anxious because you see hope.’
It was a better face than before.
Jin Cheon-hee repeatedly clenched and unclenched her fists.
Saving someone’s life is always a scary thing. However, it was also important not to contaminate that feeling. Jin Cheon-hee said.
“Let’s start with first aid. ha ha ha.”
The sire opened his mouth with difficulty.
Fortunately, the pain seems to have been reduced by half because the acupoint was quickly touched.
“I heard that he was a disciple of Shin Yi, but I had no idea he was like this.”
‘Oh, do you still have the presence of mind to talk?’
That’s a good sign.
“How is it?”
“Should I say people are really shameless. “It’s a bit obnoxious.”
After saying that, the distorted expression on his face straightened a little.
A cold flame spreads across the retina.
Even in extreme pain, the patient endured it without giving up.
To prepare for the fight ahead.
‘Hmm, nice face.’
Jin Cheonhee thought.
* * *
In order to prepare for the emergency surgery, Master prepared the Jinbeop.
They say that if you don’t have teeth, you have gums, but when it comes to disinfection, it was more certain than modern medicine.
Because the Five Elements Fire purifies everything that comes into it.
Jin Cheon-hee used internal force at the tip of the needle to point out the patient’s Qi-men (萁門), Yang-gu (梁丘) acupoints in order.
In a way, it can be called anesthesia, so this is also better than modern times.
Even in modern times, there are cases where acupuncture is used to anesthetize the area, but it is not possible to anesthetize the legs of patients with fractures or open fractures in this way.
‘But if the surgery starts in earnest, I’ll have to let him sleep.’
When you undergo surgery, your body moves, and when that happens, your energy and blood also move.
Therefore, before going into surgery, a herbal medicine is given and anesthetized by point-pointing the blood vessels behind the neck, not the legs.
Jin Cheon-hee examined the patient’s condition in depth.
‘I looked at it closely and it was clear. The blood vessels were not significantly damaged. At this level, my nerves are okay.’
The speed of bone recovery depends on the degree of damage to blood vessels.
You might wonder why hard bones have anything to do with blood vessels, but in fact, blood vessels are what restore bones.
Imagine breaking your leg at a ski resort.
First, the broken part swells.
Blood pooled together, causing an inflammatory reaction. It is also called edema.
It’s the inflammatory phase.
After the swelling and inflammation gradually subsides, fibroblasts form new matrix.
As time passes, a soft callus forms at the broken area.
To put it simply, soft callus is soft callus tissue. In this state, it becomes increasingly harder.
That is Gyeongseonggagol (Hard Callus).
However, it is still just a fake bone. That’s why it’s a gagol (假骨).
It cannot be called a proper bone yet.
This is the restoration period.
It may vary depending on the area, but for a simple fracture, this is about 4 weeks.
Afterwards, it goes through a remodeling phase, during which the excessively formed callus is absorbed and the bone marrow cavity is regenerated.
Return to normal bone shape.
As a result, when blood vessels are injured, bone regeneration naturally slows down.
Fortunately, in this patient’s case, the peroneal artery was alive.
Still, Jin Cheon-hee thought that there was some luck in the sky.
“You are constantly feeding this precious soul.”
Open fractures start and end with antibiotics.
In particular, since osteomyelitis, which is a complication, is incurable, antibiotics should have been administered as soon as the patient arrived at the emergency room.
After all the fuss outside, I am now receiving antibiotics intravenously.
In the past, the ringer made by grinding Yuho was now considered the hottest item in Uigak.
As a result, penicillin was being administered intravenously, and because it was cultivated using energy, it was an elixir that helped preserve the patient’s physical strength.
In addition, thanks to the excellent light techniques of Zhou Wangbu’s warriors, the patient was neither shaken nor took much time after being injured.
There was even Jin Cheon-hee’s appropriate initial response.
Thanks to this, we had time to prepare for emergency surgery.
