Episode 76. People change (1)
“I’m sorry, but the only people who can observe my medical practice are my students, Dr. Seok Pil and Dr. Bong Deok, and Oh Bo here.”
The painter said he did not want to show off his medical skills. Of course, Congressman Chun understood the fireman’s words. Even if you are alone, you do not show the core of your capabilities to anyone.
Even more so if it was a fireman with such medical skills!
But did I say that people become shameless when they get older?
Congressman Cheon was so curious about the fireman’s medical or divine technique that he decided to be a little brazen.
“I have the right to see the treatment of a person as the head doctor of the head of the household.”
“Then it is a big deal. I can’t show you Then, the attending physician, Congressman Cheon, treats the ancients. interpersonal I’m sorry. Boy, stop disinfecting and put the tools in.”
“yes.”
When the fireman’s order came, Obo immediately stopped disinfecting and started organizing the tools.
“What are you doing now, Congressman Kerham Chen? Please leave.”
“Verse to person.”
“Didn’t Rep. Chun say that a little while ago? It’s called divine medicine. Would you want to leak such medical techniques carelessly?”
“That’s true, but… whoa- I get it.”
Representative Cheon looked at the fireman with eyes full of regret and then went outside.
“Thank you for your understanding. Boy, finish disinfecting now.”
“yes.”
While Obo was disinfecting, the painter stood up on Gocho’s knees and turned it round and round as if drawing a circle.
“The bones fit well. It seems that the coachman used his strength well. However, joints that have been dislocated once can fall out again if you overdo it, so do not twist your legs or lift heavy objects for the time being.”
“Okay.”
Gocho nodded and replied.
‘It hurt so much at that time, but it’s because Tangi used his strength well.
A single word from the fireman decided the coachman’s life and death.
The painter opened his mouth again, not even thinking that one word of his had saved the coachman’s life.
“You will bleed so much that you will feel dizzy and tired easily for a while. As for the prescription needed for blood transfusion… Oh, the exclusive doctor is here, so there’s no need for me to write down the prescription for the decoction.”
“No, the doctor who is treating me right now is Hwa, so please write down the prescription.”
“is it so? Then I will write it down.”
While the painter wrote down the prescription, Go-cho cleared his throat for a moment and then asked insinuatingly.
“Is there a need to suffer like this in a place like this, Congressman Hwa?”
The painter raised his head and looked at Gocho. Gocho spoke again.
“Rep. Chun is very old, and it seems that a position exclusive to our family will be available soon, but what about it? Do you have any thoughts?”
“Exclusive?”
“If Congressman Hwa has an idea, I will strongly recommend it. Well, if I recommend it, you can think that it’s almost okay.”
“I am a medical student who has not yet completed a medical course.”
“Heh, that medical school. What if you don’t pay? I’ve already proven everything with my skills. And after becoming a full-time doctor, wouldn’t it be okay to go through medical school?”
“I appreciate your words, but I still have a lot to learn. Later, when I gain more experience, I will ask you a favor.”
The painter happily refused, pretending to leave room.
Kocho looked at the fireman for a moment, then nodded.
“Well, I still have a lot to learn. It’s a bit cumbersome when you’re sick, but you just have to come here and get treatment. I understand, but if I call… I will ask you first and foremost.”
“I will.”
The fireman also nodded.
‘Wouldn’t you like to kill me with this?’
After writing down the prescription, the painter said a few more words and left the living room.

The captain of the escort, the commander of the unit, and the coachman knelt down and prostrated themselves. Gocho was sitting in front of him, and his eyes were blazing with flames.
“So, boss. Are you saying that those who tried to assassinate me with these arrows and bows and the fallen military shields were military officers?”
“Yes, they were definitely trained soldiers.”
“Then where are those soldiers?”
“I rode the prepared horse and ran away.”
“Aren’t you guys riding horses?”
“One of our horses carried a great man to Uibang, and the other horse was killed by an arrow during the chase.”
“Heh heh, it’s so damn good in pairs. Being attacked by an ambush is absurd, so why did you make the ambush run away without catching any of them?”
“Please kill me.”
“I’m still struggling. But I can’t decide that here. Hello.”
“Your man.”
The third rank among the guardsmen stepped forward.
“We will decide whether or not to slit their necks back to the manor, so keep them tied.”
“yes.”
“Please allow me to come in for a moment.”
At that time, outside the medical room, the two children heard Kocho keep mentioning the military and tried to come inside.
“What’s the fuss?”
“It’s the son of an ancient man.”
Go-Cho soon recognized Gon-A.
“Come to think of it, that guy was also a military officer. Let them in.”
When Go-Cho gave permission, two children came in.
“Children Gona formally greet Daein.”
“Ajang Chang-woon meets Dae-in.”
Perhaps in a hurry, Gon-ah and Chang-woon took out their military plaques and showed them to Dae-in.
“An ancient man cannot conclude that an assassin is an officer based on this evidence alone.”
Kocho compared the two military shields in front of him with those of Gon-a and Chang-wun.
“To my eyes, this military shield and your military shield look the same.”
“You can forge as many military shields as you like.”
“You mean the military shield is counterfeit, and that bow and arrow are all counterfeit?”
“yes. In fact, there was a spy who recently gave military secrets to the bandits. The reason we were protecting Congressman Hwa from a distance was because the spy attacked him. They must have stole bows and arrows from the military and forged military shields.”
“The words are very plausible, but aren’t they just words and no evidence?”
“Isn’t there any reason for our army to target the ancients?”
“How do you guys know that? Can you guys speak for the entire army?”
“I can’t speak for it, but… common sense…”
“It’s already not common sense that I was attacked. Hello.”
“yes. interpersonal.”
“These two guys may also be related to the guys who attacked me, so arrest them right away.”
“yes.”
When the order was given, two guardsmen approached with swords and ropes.
“You associate us with the assassins? It is an absurd speculation.”
“I decide whether it makes sense or not.”
The two children stopped as they drew their swords. If he drew his sword and rebelled, the misunderstanding could have turned into truth.
While hesitating in a very embarrassing situation, another person intervened.
“I know you are very angry, but shouldn’t you take your anger out on innocent people?”
It was Woogeum who intervened.
The fireman next to him was about to go out, but he lost the opportunity to go out because Woo-geum went first.
“What are you doing?”
“He is the one who escorts Congressman Hwa.”
“Escorting Congressman Hwa? A face I haven’t seen before?”
When the fireman was mentioned, I felt my anger soften to the point of being marked by Gocho’s tone.
“My master’s granddaughter was treated by Dr. Hwa two days ago. So Master made me protect the Hwa Clinic until the treatment was completely finished.”
Gochu looked at the woojin quietly.
Although the momentum of the guardsmen surrounding Uibang must have been quite menacing, the opponent was as calm as a tiger.
Even though Go-Cho lived recklessly, that doesn’t mean he doesn’t have eyes for people at all. I thought that the reason why I was in a position like this was because I had that kind of confidence in my skills and background.
“Who is your master?”
“You deserve to know my master, but the people around you don’t, so I can’t tell you about it here.”
“what!”
Gocho looked at Woojin with an absurd expression.
Woo-geum was still calm.
“If you want, I’ll go somewhere out of sight and tell you who Master is.”
“If you’re just kidding…”
“If I don’t have multiple lives, how dare I play a prank on people?”
“good night. Let’s go somewhere quiet.”
“You can go to the living room over there.”
“Rep. Hwa. Give me some support.”
“Your man.”
Go-cho went into the master bedroom with the help of the fireman, and only Woo-geum followed.
After making the fireman leave the room, Woogeum took out the sword wrapped around the black cloth around his waist and untied part of the cloth.
“Actually, I cannot tell you Master’s name, even if he is a great man. Instead, I will show you the sword that Master entrusted me with in case I might need it while protecting Congressman Hwa.”
“Hey, I don’t know what that sword is… Huh! Don’t live…..”
Gap.
In an instant, Woojin’s hand covered Gocho’s mouth.
“Please don’t make a fuss. People outside are listening.”
“Eup, oops… Ah, okay.”
When Wu Jin removed his hand from covering his mouth, Gocho looked back at the sword in disbelief.
Five dragons were carved into the sword case in elaborate patterns.
The five dragons were a sign that the sword was bestowed by the emperor, not the king.
Even though Gao Gao Zhang showed his prestige within the defeated country, he could not ignore the person who possessed the sword bestowed by the emperor who ruled the Later Han Empire.
Even if the defeat is great, it is only a part of the vast land mass of later Han.
Woojin wrapped the scabbard sheath he had unwrapped back in a black cloth.
“I can understand the feelings of the people who were attacked, but wouldn’t it be necessary to act according to the intentions of the people who attacked them?”
“That’s right. In fact, I was angry and tried to force myself a little, but I had no intention of arguing with the military.”
“I thought you would too. However, I intervened in the hope that Congressman Hwa’s room would be so noisy that it would calm down quickly.”
“Heh heh… I looked a little ugly.”
Gocho laughed with a shy expression and left the bedroom with Woogeum’s support.
* * *
It was only outside of Gocho that he acted with the prestige of the head of the household on his back, but inside the family, he was just an ugly younger brother who was often reprimanded by the above two older brothers.
In fact, for that reason, he hid from the people around him that he had hooked the spear and was treated by a fireman.
Kocho sent the rest back to his family, leaving only 20 of the hundreds of escorts.
The captain of the escort, the vice-captain, and the coachman said that they would definitely stay and pay for their past mistakes, but they told them to go back, saying they did not want to see the suffering.
“Chun Sen. I’ll go back when I’m completely cured, so go back to my family.”
“Haha no. How can I, as a member of the council, go first when I am not fully healed? I will go with you when you die.”
While Congressman Chun was talking, he could not take his eyes off the fireman’s every move, even the smallest details.
Looking at such a member of the Chun, Go-Cho also laughed.
“Tsk, even if you look at it like that, Dr. Hwa won’t teach you medical skills.”
Senator Chun’s face turned red at Gocho’s words.
“I just watch it because I’m bored while waiting for Kerham vs. Daein to get better. I have no intention of stealing anything.”
“is it? A patient is coming over there.”
“yes!”
When Go-Cho winked, Congressman Chun’s head turned like a top.
‘Tsk.’
