Chapter 373. Parasiticide transformed into elixir (2)
“Why is the headache getting worse and worse?”
After being acupuncture and drinking the decoction, Jojo looked at the doctor while rubbing his stiff neck and shoulders.
“The fire in my heart is going up to my brain. When the mind and body are stable, the anger does not rise to the top, but now the monk is like a blazing fire in the depths, and the anger is rising to the brain. No matter how good the medicine is and how miraculous acupuncture is performed, the deepening that comes from the heart cannot be controlled.”
“You mean you can’t cure this headache after all?”
“It’s a disease that comes from the heart, so I’m sorry.”
“If you were a fireman, could you have cured this headache? Wouldn’t it have been?”
“yes?”
stop.
When the hwabu was mentioned, the congressman’s confident face turned awkward.
“Hwata’s talent, which is praised for his faithfulness, is incomparable to his conviction. His medical technique of opening the stomach and opening the head to remove the source of the disease cannot be judged by his own convictions.”
Hearing the senator’s words, Jojo smiled bitterly.
It was difficult to say, but it was said that a fireman would have fixed it.
If the fireman hadn’t been the enemy, he would have been invited and entrusted himself, but now he could not be invited, and even more so he could not be entrusted with opening his head.
“Whoa~ Becoming an enemy with Boo… This is also a difficulty.”
Jojo’s long lament lowered the head of the senator.
“I apologize.”
“It can’t be helped that your talent doesn’t keep up with your wealth. Is there any other member of the council with more talent than you?”
At Jojo’s question, the senator paused for a moment before carefully opening his mouth.
“Among the roving clinics, there is a clinician named Hoi Nam, and he is said to use the medical technique of cutting and stitching the affected area like Hwa-ta. Many of the author compare his medical skills to Hwa-ta.”
“Namho? Does that mean he can cure my headache?”
Jojo tilted his head with a puzzled expression.
To be compared to a painter, you should have heard the name at least once, but it was the first time.
“I can’t say for sure, but considering that it’s comparable to Hwa-ta, I think it’s better than me.”
“You mean you don’t know where you are now that you haven’t taken the ground?”
“He is famous among the people, and he practiced medicine in a slum in Taewon a while ago.
“If you practiced medicine in the slums, it’s similar to what painters did in the past. Hello.”
“Your master.”
“Send someone to Taewon to inquire about Rep. Nam Ho-ran and bring him.”
“I take orders.”
A hint of hope flashed across Jojo’s face.
‘It’s the same journey as the fireman, and the same medicine… Maybe it’s an alumni. If you are an alumnus, you may refuse my treatment… If you refuse treatment, should I appease you or scare you with a knife?’
I felt like I would do anything to get rid of this damn headache right now.

“Master, when did you come?”
Beon-ah, who had been making the seven-leaf cheongjeomje with Yun-ju and several lawmakers for a while, hurriedly lowered her head when she realized that the painter was watching her at some point.
“He came a little while ago. I heard that the medicinal materials arrived yesterday. Are all the things boiling in those pots of herbal medicine?”
“yes. The distribution of medicine is different for each bath, and it is brewed according to the age and body type of the person.”
“The amount is quite large this time.”
“There are many, but they are absurdly insufficient to supply the entire army.”
“About how many people can this amount feed?”
“This is enough to feed about 5,000 people.”
“5,000 people… It’s a lot, but it’s also a small amount.”
“yes.”
“Dangji.”
“Your master.”
“Through the group, increase the purchase of medicinal materials.”
“It has already been stretched to its limit. Any more is unreasonable.”
Lee Dang-ji shook his head, and the painter paused. Come to think of it, he had given the order comfortably without any hesitation, but listening to Lee Dang-ji’s words, he wondered if he had overdone himself a little.
“Have you already increased it?”
“Yes, because the brother-in-law of Buna made the same request as the Duke of Ju, we are already receiving the maximum amount.”
“Then I can’t help it.”
“Master, it may be a presumptuous thought, but wasn’t the purpose of making the seven-leaf purifying ritual to free many people from the pain of parasites?”
“yes.”
“Then, why don’t we spread the prescription of the horse leaf clearing pill to the public?”
At this point, as if it was a brilliant idea, his eyes twinkled, but the painter shook his head.
“It’s a good idea, but it will cause problems. Since all the medicines handled are highly toxic, careless people will make something else out of them, and then the number of people suffering from side effects may increase.”
It is a drug that has been researched for a long time.
Of course, it is not difficult to know the magnification and efficacy of this prescription, but it is not easy for other clinicians.
Above all, if this kind of thing spreads incorrectly, it can cause problems such as making fake medicine or spreading only words.
“Wouldn’t it be better to describe prescriptions according to age, gender, and body type, and explain the side effects of misprescribing before distributing them?”
“That is not a bad idea. However, there must be many people who are still greedy. It would be better to research that part a little more later and think about supplying it. But you are very right.”
“I just… once thought like Master. In fact, I also thought that there might be a problem with sowing in the current situation.”
Lee Dang-ji scratched his head, and the painter laughed.
In fact, the reason why the painter comes here every day despite being busy is because of his disciples and patients, but more fundamentally, it was also for himself. To him, this place was like a resting place where he could receive healing and comfort for his body and mind.
“Please help the local priest.”
At that time, Bun-ah took out the thick liquid from the pot and poured it into the container and sang Lee Dang-ji.
“yes. execution. Master, then I’m busy…”
Lee Dang-ji rushed to help Bun-ah, and the painter turned away for a while more than they were doing.
‘Come to think of it, the soldiers were deceived by saying that the repellent was an elixir, but in some ways it could be called an elixir.’
The painter laughed once more when he remembered the story of the repellent being turned into an elixir.
Apparently, the fireman revealed that it was an insect repellent that killed parasites in the stomach when he handed out Beon-ah’s seven-leaf cheongjeomje to the longevity and the bookkeepers.
However, after taking the repellent, they all became healthy and gained unprecedented vitality.
And after experiencing such a common phenomenon, they began to regard the seven leaf clearing point as a precious elixir rather than a simple repellent.
It is said that their master, the hwabu, makes and bestows a spirit called the secret art of immortals in order to increase the fighting power of the generals and soldiers.
The fireman felt absurd when he first heard the rumors spreading among the soldiers, but when he thought it would be good for boosting the morale of the army, he just nodded his head as if he didn’t know.
It’s a lie, but it’s a white lie.
Some of those who heard the white lie emphasized that they could only take the repellent once a year, but they secretly visited the disciples and made excuses like this to get more little by little.
“Well, it relieves stagnant blood, relieves fatigue, and has an antioxidant effect, so in a way, a miracle drug is a miracle drug.”
The loyalty of the longevity and the soldiers who ate the repellent was amazing, but the fireman hadn’t yet realized that.

As Huabu’s army entered the precincts of Giju, skirmishes between Cao Cao’s scouts and Huabu’s scouts began to become frequent.
Even though they are disguised as herbalists or slash-and-burn merchants, they recognize that each other is a scout.
As the skirmishes became more frequent, the scouts on Cao Cao’s side suffered much greater damage.
Since the number of scout soldiers sent by the Hwabu camp was greater than that of Jojo’s camp, the engagement itself was inevitably one-sided.
Cao Cao’s skirmishers were naturally intimidated, and as a result, the scope of the search also narrowed.
“Everyone stop!”
Ok-ju, who is in charge of the skirmishers, looked after a group of peddlers crossing the mountain path and ordered the escort guards to block the road.
There were 10 peddlers, but when soldiers in armor and well-equipped with bows, spears, and shields suddenly jumped out and blocked the road, they fell flat with their luggage on their backs in fright.
“Please save me. lily.”
“I will look through the luggage and if there is nothing dangerous, I will let you through, but if there is something dangerous, you will not be able to avoid death. Check your luggage.”
“yes.”
The peddlers did not dare to resist even when the soldiers unloaded their luggage.
There was nothing suspicious about the luggage, as it contained common necessities and a small amount of money.
But even while the soldiers were looking at their luggage, Ok-ju was only staring at one man. In fact, it was the man he was looking at that stopped the procession of such an insignificant peddler.
“There you go, the third one.”
“yes? You mean that?”
“okay. Come and see.”
“For what reason?”
“This bastard will move quickly when the general comes, but there are so many words!”
Warak.
When the man flinched, one of the soldiers put a knife to the man’s neck and dragged him to the colonel in front of Okju.
Ok-ju looked down at the man and her eyes lit up. Looking closer, I could tell that it was clearly disguised.
“No matter how you look at it, you’re not a merchant.”
“yes? What are you talking about? Aren’t you a merchant?”
snap.
At that moment, Ok-ju reached out and grabbed the man’s wrist. And he spoke.
“The outfit and beard look good, but when it comes to business, your hands are so fine. These hands are the hands of students who have only read for the rest of their lives, but they are not the hands of merchants who struggle to carry goods. is not it?”
The corner of the man’s eyes trembled at Ok-joo’s question.
“Sorry. In fact, when I heard that there would be a big fight, I asked them to go with me in order to avoid anger.”
“When you say you are a student, you immediately pretend to be a student. He’s very improvised for a skirmisher.”
“Are you a skirmisher? I think I misunderstood something, but I am not a skirmisher.”
sereung.
Ok-ju took out her sword and held it close to the man’s neck.
There was no need to do that because the soldier’s knife was already pointed at his neck, but Ok-ju did.
And because of that, the man’s neck was in the shape of a blade wrapped around both sides, and he couldn’t even move.
“What is it if the guy who disguises himself and approaches the military camp in this situation is not a skirmisher?”
“I am really a nobleman who was studying writing with the goal of entering the office.”
Ok-joo looked at the man talking without shrinking even in the situation where the blade cut his skin and the blood was flowing.
This wasn’t just a wick that a skirmisher could see.
‘Are you really a student? I thought the skirmisher was in disguise, didn’t I?’
Okju thought for a moment.
In fact, if you draw the sword once without thinking about it complicatedly, the man in front of you will lose his life and you will have nothing to worry about.
But the man’s eyes made Ok-ju worry.
‘If you’re a student with a pulpit like this… you might be a useful talent. Shall we give it a try?’
When I thought it would be a waste to kill him, I took the knife that had been pointed at my neck. Then, he winked at his subordinates and made them also withdraw their swords.
“Grandfather! Sadaebu must have read a lot of scriptures. Ask me a few questions. If you answer correctly, I will let you live.
