I Reincarnated as a Legendary Surgeon Chapter 144

Episode 144. The yellow wind is dying (1)

The fireman alludedly opened his mouth when the disciples were sufficiently full and had enough alcohol.

“Isn’t it strange that I’m doing this all of a sudden?”

“You look a little different than usual.”

“Yes, there is something I want to say a little today.”

Only then did the disciples quietly look at the fireman.

“Once upon a time, there was a good member of parliament. He was so good that there was no end to patients all day long.”

The painter raised his glass and drank the drink in one gulp.

When the painter put the glass down, Pyeon-seon quickly picked up the goblet and filled the empty glass.

The fireman spoke again.

“As his reputation skyrocketed and people praised him, the clinician worked harder to treat patients. Then, his reputation increased, and later he became the best medical doctor in Jungwon. Then, patients came from far away from the West Station. The number of patients increased day by day, and it was difficult to wait half a year to see a pulse.”

“…..”

The disciples wondered if the painter was telling his own story. The painter quietly drank another glass and looked at the disciples and asked,

“What do you think this councilor would have become?”

“I must have become very famous and made a lot of money.”

Obo said.

“You must have a great reputation?”

The sidelines also agreed.

The painter opened his mouth only after listening to all the words of the disciples with puzzled expressions.

“dead.”

“yes?”

Pyeonseon was startled and spilled the drink he had been filling his glass with. The painter calmly brushed off the alcohol and quickly emptied the glass again.

“I quietly closed my eyes in the early morning after staying up all night taking care of the patients.”

“Why why? Why did the councilor die?”

Wasn’t it Master’s story?

“Yes, the human body has its limits. If you overdo it beyond that limit, you won’t be able to withstand it at some point. Some people call it death from overwork.”

“Are you overworked?”

“That’s what they call death when fatigue accumulates and accumulates and overcomes the limit of release.”

“That kind of thing…”

The disciples were speechless for a moment.

“Looking at it today, we are just like that. So, starting today, I made the decision to stop treatment unconditionally when the sun goes down. It is true that your efforts are right and the patients are sorry, but none of them are prioritized over our health. We are also human beings. Have you guys ever read a line or practiced martial arts since you came here?”

“I was so tired that I barely washed after treatment and was busy sleeping.”

“Yes. I had no choice but to. I thought that was the biggest problem. Then what if we have a problem? So from now on, let’s think of ourselves as the most important thing. From now on, after the sun goes down, we will stop all treatment.”

“All right.”

Returning to his place after the drinking party, Pyeon-seon tilted his head as he pondered the story of the fireman.

“No matter how you think about it, it’s like Master’s own story. ah it’s not You are dead.”

Pyeonseon shook his head as if to shake off his thoughts, went to the bed, covered himself with a blanket, and lay down.

Jump up.

Then he sat up again and shook his head.

“It doesn’t make sense, but… Master’s medicine also makes no sense. Could it be that he really died and came back to life?”

I haven’t seen it myself, but I’ve often heard stories of people who almost died but survived.

“Yes, maybe that story is Master’s story. Otherwise, you can’t touch my heart like this!”

The side line was impressed. A doctor who loves his patients so much that he doesn’t even know he’s dying. Pyeonseon lay back on the bed and covered her head with the blanket.

‘I’ll be able to become a doctor like Master someday.’

For Pyeonseon, the painter was a guide in life.

Bishop Eulji of Yeonju judged that although Cheongju-gun had retreated to Giju, he did not know when he would come again. So, the guards returned to work, but the main force remained.

They mainly searched for the defeated soldiers of Cheongju Army who were being pursued, and they helped them escape or gave the wounded to be treated by the fireman.

The defeated soldiers who were saved abandoned their weapons and mostly returned to their hometowns.

Woogeum released his soldiers to chase the scattered soldiers, while also chasing the traces of the 7,000 soldiers who disappeared like ghosts after helping Yeonjugun.

While chasing the trail, I came across a face imprinted in my mind.

‘uh! The author looks like that general at that time…’

Woo-geum’s eyes naturally narrowed.

The leader of the mysterious group that attacked Cheongju-gun was taking some injured people on a wagon not far away.

It must have been the general who looked like a civilian, but if he put on armor and rode on a horse, he was like a lion jumping into a flock of sheep.

After Yu Jin dismounted, he secretly pursued the group with only a few nimble men.

‘I’ll finally find their traces.’

Although they were the ones who fought alongside them, they were the ones who had disappeared so secretly that Wu Jin did not lower his guard.

After two or so trails, I could see the group entering a very small slash-and-burn village.

Woogeum measured the village with his eyes.

‘The great crowd is absurdly small to hide… Am I wrong? No, surely that tiger-like general is right then.’

You can follow them secretly in the forest, but the moment you enter a village in an open area, you have no choice but to find out that a stranger has appeared.

‘I’ll definitely be on guard if I lead my men…’

After thinking for a while, Wu Jin left his men and entered the village alone.

Upon entering the village, Woo-geum realized that there were many patients here. A considerable number of patients were coming in from other directions as well as the group that had just entered. Members of the council were busily walking around, and

while looking at them, Woo-geum was really surprised.

“Chief Hwa Hwa?”

Since Woo-geum entered the village, many people had already paid attention to him, so the fireman also knew that Woo-geum had come.

“What is Brother Geum doing up to this point?”

Woo-geum hurriedly approached the fireman.

As we got closer, the fireman’s disciples and the jade janggoe hid in the dark. Woogeum exchanged greetings with them and looked at the fireman again.

“No, Hwa Congressman. I searched and couldn’t find it, so why the hell are you treating patients in a place like this?”

“Then where should I go? ha ha ha!”

The painter finished off the patient he was seeing and stood up shaking his hands.

“Then why did you look for me?”

“The elders of our company were very grateful to Dr. Hwa and wanted to repay the favor.”

“ah! Well, it wasn’t such a big deal… Are the company’s elders still in the city?”

“huh.”

“Then please tell me that you will be well received.”

“mind? Would this be of great help to Congressman Hwa?”

“Even Brother Geum knows. All the world’s affairs are empty, so why would you be obsessed with such trivial things? That’s because the company’s elders were lucky.”

The fireman smiled brightly and replied.

“Oh… a criminal like me doesn’t understand Congressman Hwa’s heart at all.”

“Why is such a great person like Brother Geum lowering himself to be a commoner? I don’t know what to do with this younger brother.”

“Huh! When you say that, I am even more ashamed.”

Woogeum scratched his head and said.

“More than that, an elder at the company said he really wanted to see you. How could it not be?”

“As you can see, right now it is a bit difficult. In a few days, when the city is a little quiet, I will quietly go in and see you.”

“Will you? This… let me breathe again. I will directly convey your will to the elders of my company.”

“thank you. older brother.”

“Anyway, there are a lot of patients here, too. It looks like those people are bringing patients… Are they acquaintances with Dr. Hwa?”

Woo-geum asked indirectly, but inside he was a little nervous.

Hwabu knew through Eulji that Yeonju’s forces were scattered in all directions, looking for traces of Eulji’s men.

Most of the troops have been sent back, but there are still about 2,000 remaining under orders from Eulji.

Something that could become a big problem.

The painter thought that Woo-geum was not an idiot and had already known. Therefore, I decided that it would be better to take this opportunity to openly expose the troops of Eulji, since it is impossible to hide them.

“To be honest… I thought that if the capital of Taesan-gun fell to Cheongju-gun, the next target would be Don Gu-hyeon. Then Bok-hyung will be in danger too. So, I gathered a little bit of troops by putting a connection between the family and the guild that had a relationship from the past. These are the soldiers they sent.”

It is difficult to discuss the illegality of military service since most of the families have it under the pretext of escort or voyage, although it was originally illegal.

Woo-geum also had no intention of discussing the legitimacy of such military service.

“These are soldiers who came to help at the request of Congressman Hwa Hwa! But for a private soldier, he was very well trained… There are also generals who are as good as me.”

As Woo-geum tilted his head, the painter shrugged.

“Those who accepted my request and sent the privates are people in a position that even the head of the company in Judea cannot carelessly do. How could their soldiers be weak?”

“Kuhm! He is too. All of them can be said to be great martial artists.”

Woo-geum was astonished at the fireman’s ability.

Until now, I had only known him as an excellent member of parliament, but he has the influence to raise thousands of soldiers!

‘Well, if it’s Congressman Hwa’s request, Master will also roll up his hands and help. Master alone can make 3,000 in an instant… I’m sure other people are similar.’

“Most of them have already returned. Now we have some troops to pick up the wounded.”

“Then Congressman Hwa saved Yeonju-gun from danger.”

“It wasn’t something I did, but several family heads helped me wholeheartedly.”

“That’s what Congressman Hwa did. If you’ve done that, you’ll at least give me a tip.”

“What kind of trouble is that? I did what I had to do. I am also doing my job as a member of parliament.”

When the painter shrugged slightly, Woojin nodded his head broadly.

“One day, Master said that Congressman Hwa was a person like a Taoist, so he shouldn’t be measured with the standard of an ordinary criminal… Now I understand what he said.”

“What are you saying grandiose things like that…”

“Master is suffering from a severed leg… I’m in a hurry.”

At that time, Buna’s urgent voice was heard in the two people’s ears.

Then the painter slightly bowed his head to Woo-geum.

“Brother Geum, we will solve the issue later. I am a bit busy right now.”

“Yes. yes i got it I have to stop too. Good job.”

“yes.”

When the fireman ran to the patient whose leg had been amputated, Woo-geum looked over at the people helping the burner and then turned around.

‘Really, Congressman Hwa is like a Taoist, just like Master said. It’s so big I can’t even think of it.’
