Episode 14. Making a book (1)
Daeyajang was a person who supervised all the yajangs and was so special that the prefecture guarded him when he went out of the prefectural office.
“I have a little connection with Pyochung, so I can request things, but it’s hard to take a painter.”
“I guess so. Then I will draw a picture for you, so please commission me instead.”
“Looks like you need something other than a needle.”
“yes.”
“Hoya.”
Congressman Bong called for a servant.
“Yes, Senator.”
“Go and get a brush, a bamboo stick, and ink.”
“yes.”
After a while, the servant brought a brush, bamboo stick, and ink, and the painter dipped the thinnest brush in ink and began to paint.
“I’m close with Pyochung, but it’s hard to ask for much, so just draw a few things you absolutely need.”
“yes.”
The painter first thought of a surgical knife, but soon erased it from his mind and drew a needle holder, Kelly, and a retractor that he thought were more necessary.
‘Anyone who made a needle that big would be able to make such a precise instrument.’
While the painter wrote down the overall model, the detailed model of the necessary parts, and the specifications, Congressman Bong tilted his head while looking at the painting.
“It looks like scissors. What are these things used for?”
“Oh~. This is a device that holds the needle instead of the needle because it can slip if blood or oil gets on your hand when you are suturing. This is to hold the blood vessel…
” That’s what it’s used for. If you know the purpose of the pyochung, you can use it as a reference when making it, so please write down the usage below.”
“ah! That’s a good idea. All right.”
After the painter completed the drawing and writing, he nodded his head after reading through Congressman Bong.
“I think I will definitely need it for the operation. But it’s very precise, so it’s not easy to make. Of course, I’m not a night farmer, so I don’t know exactly, but just looking at the pictures makes me dizzy.”
“If you make something similar, it will be of great help when treating patients.”
“I guess so. But where did the painter see these instruments?”
“I saw it in a medical book from the West Station. I was quite impressed, so I was going to ask for a request if I met a field manager with good skills later, but the lawmaker said he knew the field field, so I wanted to do it now.”
“It’s amazing that the western region’s medicine has developed so much.”
“I was also very surprised. If I get a chance later, I plan to visit Seo Station.”
“Since West Station is a very long way, you will have to prepare a lot. Anyway, making these tools isn’t easy. Also, since the head of the all-night room is a very important position, I don’t know if time flies.”
“You have to wait. Still, I feel fortunate that there are people who can make such an instrument.”
“I can’t guarantee you can make it.”
“Anyway, please beg me earnestly.”
“I know it.”
“thank you.”
“By the way, are you feeling full now?”
“Ha ha yes. I had a good meal.”
Congressman Bong called a servant to remove the table and took out a gourd from his bosom.
The painter looked to see if there was alcohol in the vial, but when he poured the contents into the bowl, a poorly sealed blood vessel came out along with the alcohol.
“Actually, I tried splicing the pig’s blood vessels with this needle, but it didn’t work. This is the best blood vessel.”
“ah-. I wondered why there was a pork feast all of a sudden, but there must have been a reason.”
“Haha, even for me, it’s hard to catch a pig easily.”
The fireman was quite surprised after examining the sealed blood vessels.
‘Hey, you did pretty well for the first time, didn’t you? Pig veins are thick, but at this level without Kelly, your hands are precise.’
Of course, he also did the blood vessels without Kelly (a tool to hold blood vessels or stop bleeding, which looks like scissors and has forceps at the end), but that was possible because he had already had a lot of experience.
“How is it?”
“It looks like it leaked blood.”
“You see exactly. Even though I sewed it as tight as possible, blood leaked out.”
“Still, you did well for the first time.”
“is it. But why is the blood leaking out?”
“Hmm, it’s hard to explain this in words… I’m going to seal another blood vessel, so take a look at how it differs.”
“Oh, then it would be easier for me to watch and learn. Hoya.”
“Yes, Senator.”
“Bring me the pig blood vessels you put in a gourd.”
“yes.”
Moments later, Congressman Bong poured the gourd brought by the servant into the bowl.
Numerous sealed blood vessels spilled out.
The painter looked at it, picked up one of them, cut off the sutured area with scissors, and took the needle that Dr. Bong had.
“All blood vessels have a direction in which blood flows. First you need to look in that direction. And then…”
Hwabu sealed half of the blood vessel for easy inspection and handed it over to Bong.
“This is how you do it. Take a good look and study.”
“Okay.”
Congressman Bong put the vessels received from the fireman into a gourd as if they were precious treasures, and put the rest of the vessels separately.
* * *
“I want to fulfill my greed right now, but since I’ve seen blood vessel repair, I’ll have to teach you acupuncture. Hoya.”
“Yes, Senator.”
“Go to my room and bring me a wooden doll with blood points engraved on it.”
“yes.”
While the servant went to get the wooden doll, the painter’s complexion suddenly darkened.
‘Oh no, I didn’t prepare saliva!’
Congressman Bong was the first to notice that the painter’s complexion had darkened.
“Hwa Gongja. Where are you uncomfortable?”
“That’s it… Actually, I didn’t bring acupuncture needles when I came to learn acupuncture because I was in a hurry.”
“Keuhum, if the medical student under me did that, I would be greatly disrespected, but since I am a chemist, I will endure it.”
“sorry.”
“For a clinician, acupuncture is the basic of the basics and is a necessity that must not be separated from the body at all times.”
“yes. I will keep that in mind.”
When it was time to learn, the painter quickly changed to the mode of medical life, just like he did during his previous internships.
“Curham.”
“Here, Mr. Can I get the needle you have?”
“Hmm, I’ll ask Pyochung when I ask for it.”
“thank you.”
“You don’t know when Pyochung will make a needle, so bring another needle before then.”
“yes.”
After a while, when the servant brought the wooden doll, Congressman Heo began to explain by pointing to the dots on the wooden doll.
“This spot on the back of the neck, called Pungji, is only for when you have a bad headache…”
The painter listened to the explanation of the acupuncture points pointed out by Bong and compared them with those in the painter’s memory of the past.
‘The painter is much more detailed than what I saw in the medical book of Xuzhou. But it’s strange. It’s in the memories of the old fireman, and it’s the same with Congressman Bong’s wooden doll. It seems that the number of acupoints is much smaller than I thought?’
Hwabu was a surgeon, so of course he was not interested in blood spots. But I have been to the clinic a few times.
No, even if it’s not that, I’ve seen a human body model with numerous acupuncture points densely drawn.
Now, there are only about 100 dots on the wooden doll in front of Congressman Bong, and the number of acupoints in the memory of the former fireman is even less, 95.
“Pungji, but this Cheonjuhyeol next to it is also a place where you shouldn’t pierce deeply
.
When the painter stopped talking and entered, Congressman Bong frowned.
He endured it once even if he didn’t bring acupuncture needles, but now he dared to cut off his own teaching.
Considering the time when he was learning medicine or the attitude of medical students who are currently learning medicine from him, the fireman’s behavior was very rude.
If they were not in a position to exchange and receive teaching equally, the order of disobedience would have fallen immediately, but since they were in an equal position, they endured once again.
“Why but?”
“Sorry for the explanation. Are all the places to put the acupuncture points stamped here?”
“As far as I know, this is all. Of course, people like Dongbong and Janggi, who are famous for their faithfulness, may know a little more, but they can’t teach you, so this is what is widely known now. At least the two blood points here on the leg were what I discovered after a lot of research.”
“Ah, so that’s why the name isn’t written on it.”
“I’m thinking of giving it a name after the effects of being stabbed are fully revealed.”
“Ah yes.”
The painter nodded and smacked his lips as if he was sorry.
‘Whoa~. If I had known this would be the case, it would have been very helpful if I had studied oriental medicine and memorized the name of the acupuncture point of the doll I saw at the oriental clinic at the time.’
It was before I went to medical school, so I was curious and looked at it, but it had already been more than ten years and my memory wasn’t that good, so I didn’t remember anything in particular.
no it shouldn’t have been
Hwahiaak …..
As if it was a moment, the dolls I saw in the clinic began to become clearer in my head.
‘uh! What is it? There’s no way I have such a good memory…’
Since I went to medical school, I heard that my memory was of course good and that I was smart.
However, I couldn’t remember all the acupuncture points of the human body model that I had never seen before as clearly as if I were seeing them spread out in front of my eyes as a photograph.
‘Couldn’t it be because he was resurrected that he could look at the memories of Han Jin-soo intact, or even more clearly?’
Just in case, the painter thought of one of the major books he read during his internship.
Hua Aak …..
The faint memories are quickly embodied, and all the contents I saw came to mind.
‘This is enough to say that I simply remember this. It’s like clicking and viewing data stored on a computer.’
It was so great that I got goosebumps on my arms.
“Fire Confucius! Are you listening to me?”
At that time, the painter’s mind, which had been concentrating on the medical book, suddenly returned to reality with a high pitched sound.
“Yes ah yes.”
The painter could easily read the displeasure on Congressman Bong’s face.
“Couldn’t you have been listening to me?”
“Oh no. I was listening.”
The fireman reflexively lied.
I had heard so many scoldings of this kind from professors that I could not say that I had not listened to it, even if I replied that I had heard it and forgot it.
“If you’ve been listening, explain what I just said about this prestigious blood.”
The Myeongmoon Point that Congressman Bong pointed out was located between the 2nd and 3rd lumbar vertebrae in the lower back and was located on the opposite side of the navel.
The painter hurriedly followed the memories of the previous painter and explained about the prestigious blood he had studied through books.
“The prestigious blood is the first part to look at when there is pain in the waist, and the sweat band is severe in the summer …..” Hua
-ah …..
content overlapped.
If the two memories overlap like this, it would seem like they would get tangled up, but it didn’t, and I understood it as if I were comparing two screens at the same time.
The fireman paused for a moment before speaking.
And while hesitating, I looked at where the nerves from the 2nd and 3rd lumbar vertebrae, called the Myeongmunhyeol, stretched.
Most of the nerves from the 2nd and 3rd lumbar vertebrae extended to the kidneys, and only a few stretched out like small roots to the small intestine and back muscles.
‘ah! If you put acupuncture on the Myeongmun acupoint, the nerves that move the kidneys will be stimulated. Then, of course, the kidneys will be stimulated and activated. When the kidneys are activated, the water inside the body…..’
Exactly.
At that moment, Senator Bong knocked on the table, and as a result, the fireman’s spirit, which had been wandering through two memories, returned to reality.
