Episode 112. Potential for confusion
Although the subject was missing, it was easy to understand.
Han E-bi is in tears for a moment.
This is enough to encourage you to listen.
Of course, Jong Ri-hyuk and So Eun-ri also had displeased expressions.
Han Yi-bi glanced at Peng Mo-ha before sitting down.
However, Paengmoha pretended not to notice and turned his head to continue explaining.
“This Gyehyeoncho (溪絢草) is very rare, but it is very effective in neutralizing poisoning of rain. “The important thing here is not to be fooled by this skinny and unsightly appearance.”
‘Huh?’
Han Ibi couldn’t believe her ears.
Because Pengmoha was saying something completely absurd.
Dear System, you clearly explained that the grass is not Gyehyeoncho, but ‘Eungyocho (鷹尿草)’.
Considering the skills of the herbal encyclopedia shown so far, there is little chance of the system being wrong.
Han Yi-bi muttered in an audible voice, saying that she had suffered something from Moha Peng earlier.
“Tsk tsk tsk. “It seems like innocent lives are dying without even realizing it.”
Then Pengmoha turned his head and said.
“What did you just say? Zhongli Little Colony.”
Han Ibi said in a nonchalant tone.
“yes? Me? “I stayed quiet.”
Peng Mohe said with a frown on his face.
“That’s not true. “I definitely heard muttering.”
At that time, the Hwasan Sect’s Bladder Sect laughed and said.
“That’s right. That’s strange. “I think I heard someone say something like dying…”
Han Ibi looked at the bladder room with sharp eyes.
However, he just pretended not to notice and averted his gaze, burying his head in his book.
Peng Moha said as he approached Han Yi Fei’s side.
“I heard that there is a conscientious teacher who clearly heard about it… How are you going to explain this?”
Then Han Ibi took a deep sigh and said.
“iced coffee. “I can’t help it.”
Peng Mohe raised one eye and asked.
“What do you mean you can’t help it?”
“I was just talking to myself. Didn’t the head of the church talk to himself a little while ago? “There is a reason why I was pushed out of the old school.”
“So now… are you saying that you said that out of spite?”
“no. Not necessarily. “I tried to tell you quietly later, but I’m saying that because of the little hero of the Volcanic Sect who is overflowing with a sense of justice, the Fang leader is in trouble.”
“What do you mean? “Don’t spin around and say it straight.”
Hearing his words, Han Ibi sighed again and walked back toward the teacher’s table as if she had no choice.
All the students’ eyes were focused on Han Ibi.
He went to the table and touched the herbs again.
Tiriring.
[This is a confirmation of the Herbal Encyclopedia DB…]
Han Ibi cleared her voice and said.
“Let me tell you in advance that this is possible. Even experts can get confused sometimes.”
I asked, trying to make my frown even worse.
“What do you mean?”
“This herb that you described as Gyehyeoncho is actually not Gyehyeoncho.”
Then Paengmoha jumps up.
“What nonsense is that! If you are insulting me like this because I am not a martial artist, I will never sit idly by. “I will go to the Lord and report to him right away!”
Han Ibi said while shrugging her shoulders.
“No matter what you report, it can’t be helped… but it won’t change the fact that this grass is not Gyehyeoncho.”
Paengmoha said, his face red as if he was so angry that he went to his head.
“Stop talking nonsense.”
“It’s not nonsense. It’s not that it’s not, but this grass looks very similar to Gyehyeoncho. Therefore, there are cases where lawmakers are deceived by herbalists. Judging by Chief Fang’s outstanding skills… it is clear that he was deceived by the herbalist. Or maybe the herbalist was confused too.”
At that time, Wang Qinglin could not contain his curiosity and said.
“So you’re saying that the Zhongli Little Collaboration knows the true name of that grass?”
Han Ibi glanced at her briefly and said.
“I guessed it right away. Of course I know the name of this herb. “This is a grass called ‘Eungyocho.’”
Then, Pengmoha’s expression changed subtly.
It seemed like the name of an herb he also knew.
Han Ibi’s words continued.
“According to legend, it got its dirty name because a hawk found it in the spot where it urinated. I really like the naming sense. Anyway, the grass you see here now seems to have dried up… but it looks like this even when it was healthy. And these characteristics are equally evident in Gyehyeoncho. “Again, it’s confusing enough.”
Wang Qinglin said.
“Well, you’re talking as if you’ve seen the herb’s true form.”
Of course I’ve seen it.
In fact, I have even sold it. To that doctor at the foot of Mt. Magok…
Han Ibi said as she glanced at Paengmoha, who was shaking with his fists clenched.
“Eungyocho is a herb that is good for your health. That’s for sure. But there is no such thing as a deterrent to emergency poisoning. It’s just a special medicine that works very well for asthma. This has an immediate soothing effect on coughing. “Although the fruit of this plant is light orange and so small that it is hard to see, it is an effective medicine for treating phlegm.”
There was silence in the audience.
A very clear explanation.
Everyone who knew Han Ibi’s behavior had an expression of disbelief.
“I’ll say it again, the two herbs look very similar in appearance. “If I have to tell you the truth….”
Han Ibi turned the grass over and started rubbing the back of it.
“…right here. You need to look closely at the patterns on the back of the leaf. This back has no pattern. However, ‘real Gyehyeoncho’ has a comb pattern. It is no coincidence that the name contains the character ‘patterned string’ (絢). “The above was my opinion.”
Han Yi-bi spoke to Peng Mo-ha, who was trembling between anger and embarrassment.
“If you have any doubts about what I say, you can call the herbalist or other council members to check.”
* * *
I couldn’t help but feel happy, but Han Ibi felt a bit of regret.
‘I ended up screwing him up so much. Still, it is a bridge in name and appearance… but it goes directly against the maxim that one should never take enemies. But damn it. So, who would criticize someone else’s clan so carelessly?’
And then I thought again.
‘Still, it was a bit too much. If I get hurt later, Rep. Pang will be the one to fix it. Hey, I don’t know, I don’t know. As long as you don’t get hurt, it’s okay. The water has already been spilled.’
At that time, I saw a man smiling and waving his hand approaching.
It was Moon Won-bi, the beggar of openness.
These days, this guy keeps pretending to be friendly with me and it’s been bothersome.
Wen Wenbi said.
“Zhongli Little Colony.”
“why?”
“and! I was really impressed. “I respect you.”
“What do you mean?”
“From organ and diaphragm techniques to herbal medicine… Is there really nothing you can’t do?”
“I don’t think it’s an antidote to medicine. “I just went around with my old herbalist and learned a little from him over his shoulder.”
“Ah… even this humility… he has all the characteristics of a co-hero, so it is truly admirable.”
“oh my. Please don’t do this because it’s embarrassing. “Honestly, I’m more envious of Sohyeop Moon’s handsome face.”
Then I heard a familiar voice.
“and! Zhongli Small Colony. “It’s really amazing, isn’t it?”
It was Wang Qinglin, who was passing by.
This woman was also pretending to be close friends with Wen Wonbi.
“Egg… But Rep. Pang was so unhappy.”
“Phew… I guess I acted wrong.”
“It seemed a bit harsh. Ho ho ho. by the way. Zhongli Small Colony. I’m having trouble sleeping at night these days. What medicine should I take? Please tell me the prescription. yes? yes?”

Another few days passed and new training began.
The students’ perspective on Han Ibi has now changed a lot.
Of course, there were very few people like Wen Won-bi who had eyes of admiration, and there were far more students like Bang Bang-sil or Ban Bang-geun who looked wary.
After all, aren’t they all the best technicians who have never experienced failure in their school of origin?
Han Ibi was taking a theory class on witchcraft poisoning while feeling the stinging gaze of jealousy.
The leader is Tang Ho-yeon (唐湖聯), who is from Sichuan Tangmun.
He was a very short, middle-aged man with dark skin and a face covered in pockmarks caused by smallpox.
However, the fact that it was selected as a poison-related bridge from Sacheondangmun, famous for its poison, is enough to know.
The basic truth is that people should not be judged by their appearance.
“The truth is….”
Tang Hao-yeon opened his mouth.
“…The truth is that detoxification comes second.”
The students were quietly listening to him.
“Then what is the first thing? It is to see through the other person’s poisonous tactics. It is very foolish to treat poison carelessly. “What can be avoided should be avoided without thinking twice.”
Han Ibi thought that what he said made a lot of sense.
“In that case, it is important to know the other person’s poisonous techniques well. In particular, in the case of Magyo, depending on the geographical influence, they mainly use poisonous plants and poisonous substances near Seojang.”
After giving a general introduction, he began explaining the poisons mainly used in the Demonic Cult.
As expected, the class continued as boring as the previous detox.
However, what he said at the end of the lecture had a ripple effect that caught the attention of all the students.
“I know what you’re thinking right now. Because I also received training there. So, with great difficulty, I sought the consent of the Murim Lord and personally brought various poisonous substances and poisonous plants. “These are all things that are used for research purposes at our Sacheondangmun.”
Yeo Nanju asked with a frown on her face, as if she was shuddering just thinking about it.
“Is it true that I have to see those poisons in person?”
“I guessed it right away. Tomorrow you will be able to see for yourself the chief’s poisons, as well as the various types of poisons I brought for reference. It’ll be fun. “You have to be a bit careful, though.”
* * *
As Dang Ho-yeon said, it seems dangerous.
To prepare for any emergency, all students took pills that suppressed the penetration of poison.
They also wore a t-shirt and gloves made of Cheonjamsa.
Doing this made me even more nervous.
The place where they were standing was in front of a warehouse-like building on the outskirts of Hyeonseogak.
Dang Ho-yeon said.
“If too many people enter at once, there is a risk of irritating the poisonous substances. “There are a lot of kids who are quite sensitive.”
It was probably a joke, but no one laughed.
Dang Ho-yeon, who was embarrassed, withdrew his smile and suggested forming a group.
He tried to divide the students into groups, but perhaps because it was a hassle, he decided to just use the groups he had divided into groups in the mechanics class.
Several team members were seen entering and leaving the ‘poisonous warehouse’ in a group.
Each time, Tang Ho-yeon was carefully leading the way.
For some reason, there were sometimes students who came out feeling nauseous.
Han Ibi thought.
‘You really try all kinds of things.’
And finally….
the turn of the past Hwapi group characters that Han Ibi belongs to has returned.
Wen Wenbi said with a very flushed face.
“Zhongli Little Colony. “Isn’t there some knowledge about self-study that we don’t know?”
Han Ibi waved her hand.
“It can’t be. “I don’t know anything about poison.”
At that time, Tang Ho-yeon’s voice was heard.
“What are you doing if you’re not going in? Aren’t you ready yet?”
“It is done.”
Wang Qinglin answered bravely.
Dang Ho-yeon said.
