Chapter 660
Although it is called a large public bath, it is actually for the use of teachers only.
First, the heads of the four generations come to take a bath and then return to a place far away from the teacher’s residence so that they do not have to meet their superiors.
These people seem to have a wild sense of reading the heavens, and as soon as you tell them to do something, they disappear. And I can’t find lawmakers from the same party.
Of course, the members below turned around and left because they didn’t want to be in the same league as Master and the leader of the four major clans.
That’s also the story of the members of the upper chamber.
The members of the lower house of the House of Representatives do not want to hear the upper house member’s theory of grit that starts with ‘Latte is ~’, so they take notice and go in among themselves.
Then, our weak members of the Senate go into the bathhouse among themselves, shedding tears at the fact that there are no attendants.
They go in and brag about who is in worse shape.
This is how the Baekrin Uigak Hot Springs Pyramid works.
The higher you go, the lonelier it becomes.
And the teacher at the top of the pyramid is.
“Well, it’s new and clean.”
He is a person who will take responsibility if even a single hair falls from someone else’s head.
Entering alone is to protect the peace of Baekrin Uigak.
In this way, the newly built large public bath (as it is called, and in fact a bath only for Master) is peaceful even today.
Jin Cheon-hee squats down and checks the tiles.
“Well, you put it up well.”
Part of the Roman bathhouse was used.
A giraffe mosaic symbolizing Baekrin Uigak was also embedded into the tiles on the floor.
And the stone statues of turtle, crane, deer, and giraffe, which symbolize longevity, are spouting hot spring water from the four corners.
“This is a relatively high bathhouse, so it’s very hot.”
“yes. “The lower bath is designed to have a lower temperature.”
There is one more reason why it is only for teachers.
This is because there are not many people who can withstand this scorching heat, which is called hell bath.
Teacher usually just uses the temperature for foot bathing.
In short, the temperature at which a person is boiled.
As Master’s large body settled down, the hot spring water began to churn, creating huge waves.
Jin Cheon-hee also went into the corner.
“Now then, let’s talk. You said you defeated the blood mission, right? Jangcheon-gun.”
“yes. I defeated it without much difficulty. “Master.”
The teacher floated the citron wine in the basket into the air and threw it to the disciple.
Although it has the word ‘ju (酒)’ in it, it is not intoxicating, so it is actually just a sweet drink.
It is truly a health drink made by boiling down citron and herbs.
Healthy drink without alcohol.
Even young children can drink it.
He even handed me a bamboo pole.
Jin Cheon-hee drank Jjuapjjuap citron liquor, remembering the Panana milk of the past.
The tangy taste of citron juice is refreshing.
“I went to investigate insurance fraud, and things escalated.”
“okay. Considering your actions, it’s quite possible.”
Jin Cheon-hee talked about the story leading up to meeting Jang Cheon-gun and the state of the village.
I didn’t forget to mention the strange things about Dowon-dong.
“Make a spiritual altar out of a human body. “I understand why blood missions are so strong.”
“yes. “I was strong even though I had no awareness of martial arts.”
“I only half believed the letter saying my limbs were fine, but they were really fine.”
At those words, Jin Cheon-hee sighed and swallowed.
‘Was I not that trustworthy?…’
Isn’t that too much? Master.
I swallow my words while thinking this to myself.
This is because more than once I sent letters pretending to be okay when I was really devastated.
“You dressed as a woman again.”
I didn’t say that, so how did you know?
“The name was too obvious, wasn’t it? Sima Xi and Jin Tianxian.”
“okay. With a name like that. Are you enjoying getting caught these days?”
“….”
Before I can stop him, I guess it would only be an excuse to say that Sima Hyun called him that first.
The student couldn’t even answer and just drank the citron liquor.
“And the Emperor is also the Emperor. If you’re going to pamper someone else’s student like that, isn’t it polite to give him some of your classmates? “My true.”
The disciple nodded.
“Yes, that’s why I cursed you to become bald!”
“…It’s a curse worthy of you. “It’s just something trivial and painful.”
What’s wrong with being bald? Where can there be a curse as vicious as this?
Master laughed, wondering what was so fun.
‘Still, I’m glad. ‘You’re less angry than I thought.’
Was it because he personally confirmed that the disciple was safe, or was it because the long letters arrived and somehow relieved the Master of his anger?
The cause was unknown, but it was still heart-wrenching for the disciple.
After finishing the sour citron wine and putting it down, the teacher handed me a whole citron.
“Shall I float it in the bathtub?”
“Are you saying that the highest quality citron is used for bathing?”
The citron certainly looked particularly precious because it was large and had a nice scent. Master said.
“Eat.”
“yes?”
“This is a citron picked from a thousand-year-old tree in Wudang Mountain. It is good for recovering from fatigue and cold. “It also helps with internal injury recovery.”
“Oh, I see. Then, I will make yujacheong and eat it right away.”
“The shamans just ate it. “If you eat citron syrup, the medicinal effect decreases.”
Isn’t Master speaking calmly?
‘Do you want me to just eat this sour and bitter thing?’
Who would eat a citron like a tangerine? Boil it down or soak it in alcohol.
However, Master spoke kindly.
“Do you want to eat it? Hee-ya.”
“yes yes!”
‘Cancel the statement that you have let go of your anger.’
It was like that. Because there is nothing in this world as long as the back end of a white phosphorus line.
Jin Cheon-hee had to shed tears and eat all the raw citron in front of her teacher.
Fortunately, the bitter taste was not as strong as expected, as they said it was picked from a thousand-year-old citron tree in Wudang Mountain.
Precious items were precious items. But it is sour. It’s too sour.
Even if you eat a lemon raw, it seems less bitter than this.
“Ugh, Master. “I feel like my fatigue is melting away!”
“okay. “It is said that spiritual power is effective and that it restores one’s internal strength in a small way.”
“Oh, that must be really expensive.”
“okay. Originally, it was a rare item that outsiders could not obtain. my. sir. to. west. “It was sent specially.”
ah. I vented my anger.
This is 100% my anger towards King Kwon.
Jin Cheon-hee ate raw yuzu and became 2% healthier.
* * *
“Now that I’m here, I’d like to give you some rest, but you’re not the type of guy to do that.”
“Hehehe!”
Jin Cheon-hee scratched the back of her head in the bathtub.
After eating a whole yuzu, I didn’t forget to say that it was surprisingly palatable.
As I ate this again, it tasted sweet at the end and was a delicacy.
There was no sense in punishing him like this, but from the teacher’s point of view, he seemed to get away with it since he was given something precious.
“There is a patient I would like you to take care of.”
“A patient?”
“okay. “He’s a bit of a special patient.”
special patient.
That meant a particularly ‘difficult’ patient.
“First of all, do you know how many families in this empire can be said to be powerful?”
“Hmm… I know the names of the eight imperial families.”
These are the eight core families that control the empire.
Even if the Emperor has unprecedentedly strong power, if these eight families join forces, even the Emperor can be suppressed.
Of course, that’s why you can’t exercise your veto at any time.
The emperor also cannot control the eight branches of the empire as he pleases.
That is the current situation of the Hwa Empire.
“okay. “The Yuk Heon I saw earlier is a person from the Six Families, one of the Eight Families of the Empire.”
“okay.”
“And today. A patient from the family, one of the eight families of the empire, is here. The most famous of those ancestors is Ga Hu, who rose to the rank of Crown Prince during the Three Kingdoms.”
‘It’s a name I haven’t heard in a long time.’
Gafu (賈詡). The name is culture (文和).
That’s why many people call it family painting.
He was a master of strategy, ranked in the top 10 in the Romance of the Three Kingdoms, and unlike Sunuk, who committed suicide under Cao Cao due to his incredible skill in managing life, he lived until almost eighty and died of old age.
At the time of his death, the family was well prosperous.
Those who have seen Romance of the Three Kingdoms know that at that time, it was difficult to take care of oneself and even more difficult to take care of one’s family, but Gahu did it.
‘Considering the family’s food and property, it was considerable even by the standards of the time.’
Of course, there is nothing to say now.
Jin Cheon-hee said.
“By the way, Master. Just because you are a blood relative of the Eight Houses of the Empire, there is no need for us to give you any special treatment…” We
do our best for our patients.
If it is an incurable disease that cannot be cured due to lack of human wisdom, there is nothing we can do, but otherwise, haven’t we always done our best to treat it?
Surprisingly, it didn’t matter whether there was a Sega or not.
“However, if I cure this disease, I have decided to pay a fairly large price.”
Sponsorship or connections.
Meaning that you will give it either way.
If you think about it, didn’t you have a great helper in Baekrin Uigak while treating Han Yi-jeong?
In addition, the enormous donation given by Han Yi-jeong’s grandfather, Admiral Tae-gam, was of great help in the expansion of Baek Hwan-hu and the new Bunta.
“Oooh! “I always appreciate the money you give!”
Jin Cheonhee’s eyes lit up.
“Anyway, you guy.”
Master clicked his tongue and said:
“First, go and diagnose it yourself. “I decided it would be difficult to treat, but…”
Jin Cheon-hee frowned at those words.
“If Master says treatment is difficult, then it must be difficult for me too…?”
“Isn’t that something you don’t know yet?”
“Hmm…”
Jin Cheonhee rubbed her chin and nodded.
“Then, disciple of Buddha and Buddha! “Let’s go get diagnosed!”
* * *
Fourteen years old.
A short patient was sitting.
The child, whose entire body was covered in fur like a gorilla, stared blankly at the ceiling.
Being covered in hair all over your body during your most sensitive period means that it is impossible to make friends or have a proper social life.
Especially in this era, we are accustomed to ostracizing those who are different from ourselves.
At first, Jin Cheon-hee wondered if this child was a spirit creature like King Yeonwon, but soon realized that he was a human being.
Because medical records don’t lie.
And I also know that the descendants of the family lords are not easy beings in this empire.
‘If you look at the pulse results… it’s hirsutism (excessive hair growth).’
For some reason, the family has been producing hairy descendants for generations.
It is unknown when this began as it is not disclosed to the outside world, but the public calls it a ‘curse’.
I don’t know who placed what curse. It is said that one of the family’s descendants was born with hirsutism.
‘Usually, congenital hirsutism is expressed as a genetic abnormality.’
If it were modern Earth, it would have been diagnosed as a genetic disease, but it’s hard to say because this is a place where the curse really exists.
Other doctors first diagnosed that the child’s body was completely normal.
Jin Cheon-hee also had a baby.
‘hmm. As expected, it is not a tumor problem. It’s not a hormonal imbalance problem. It’s not because of medicine or poison.’
Jin Cheon-hee also has the same opinion.
For some reason, it’s innate like this.
In real life, people with severe hirsutism have their faces covered in hair, making them look like werewolves or yetis.
Some people even had to cut their hair periodically because it continued to grow endlessly.
