Chapter 110: The Lazy Man, Treated (5)

"In the first place, treatment can only be a concept of welcome. It has to be used on the battlefield."

“I guess so.”

Dangcheon-gun also agreed.

What makes this disease so terrifying is that it breaks out on the battlefield. While treatment might be possible elsewhere, in a battlefield where life and death are at stake, there's no hope for such a leisurely cure.

In that situation, welcoming is the best option.

Acupuncture and pulse diagnosis can only play a supplementary role. Furthermore, the therapeutic liquids, which must be transferred in vials, present storage problems.

“Do you know any good singers?”

“That’s not it.”

“Yeah. If you know someone like that, that’s even stranger.”

“I think that sounds a bit strange.”

“Because it’s true.”

Well… well, that's true.

“Then, is the person you’re trying to introduce…….”

“Yes. I’m going to introduce you to….”

“Not you, right?”

"yes?"

Dangcheon-gun said with a bitter expression on his face.

“It seems like it’s time to say something like, ‘I learned the method of training from my master.’… It seems like your master taught you everything.”

"It's true I learned everything, but I learned nothing except how to fight. I did learn how to deal with poison, though…"

“Poison? Did you say poison?”

"yes."

Dangcheon-gun rolled his eyes.

Wi Yeon-ho's master is a master. A master of immense power. I don't know his name, his nickname, or anything else, but I don't need to know. The swordsmanship he demonstrates is proof enough.

There was no way an ordinary master could have raised such a person. If he had a high reputation, he would have been incredibly high, and if he didn't, he would have been one of the strongest players among the benefactors.

Is this the way to deal with poison that someone like that is talking about?

You should hear this. It might be of great help to the party.

“What did the master say?”

“They said to win with your body?”

"……huh?"

Wi Yeon-ho shrugged and said.

"Master said, 'Poison is something bad entering the body.' Simply put, it's no different from eating spoiled food and becoming ill. Just as a healthy stomach can handle spoiled food, a healthy body will be fine no matter what poison enters. So, instead of whining and seeking relief, just focus on strengthening your body."

“…….”

“Well, what should I say? That sounds very plausible….”

“……Bullshit.”

“That’s right!”

Wi Yeon-ho applauded.

It was a round of applause for Dangcheon-gun, who said what he could not say.

"I really think so too. I really do think so, but I can think about it… but I'm a little hesitant to say it out loud. Hey, what did Master say?"

“…….”

Yeah, you can't do that. I can, but you can't.

“Anyway, I learned that you have to deal with poison like that.”

“It seems Master has never been poisoned.”

“He said he once snatched the poison from an old man who was using poison and put it in his mouth, but he said his hands got a little black in the process and he was annoyed.”

“……Haha, you think you know how to use poison after dealing with just one old man like that? You may have grasped the true meaning of the sword, but you’re so ignorant about poison.”

“I think it’s kind of like that.”

Except that the old man was the head of the Sacheondang family at the time.

If you take away the fact that the old man, who was called Dokgun or something, was said to be one of the best poison masters among the heads of families of all time.

The answers given by the Master are always correct. They are already proven facts. The problem is that ordinary people cannot put those answers into practice, even after they die and come back to life.

How to deal with a quick sword?

All you have to do is swing your sword faster than your opponent.

A person with high lightness?

You just have to run faster from this side.

Every solution is like this. That's true.

That's true, but since it doesn't work, the master doesn't think it's a problem.

why?

Honey, that's enough.

Baek Mu-han is the ultimate "I know because I've done it." Even if you object and say it's nonsense, what can you say when you've already done it?

He is the man who laughs about how he chased the Ark of Openness, known as the "Shinpung," who cursed and fled, only to be thrown into the North Sea before returning. He later recalls how delightedly he laughed when he learned that the beggar had returned to the Central Plains, barely resembling a human.

How upset I was when I later heard that Shinpunggae was the fastest beggar in the history of openness.

If it's the best sword in the world, it should end with the best sword in the world, so there's no need to be the fastest in terms of legs.

Even Shinpunggae must have been confident in his own legs. Even if he were Baek Muhan, he probably felt he couldn't be caught if he cursed and fled beyond the reach of his sword.

okay.

Those who deal with the Master also have plausible plans, until they are directly hit by him.

'Be thankful you didn't get hit yourself.'

When I see Dangcheon-gun smiling without knowing anything, the saying, 'Ignorance is bliss' comes to mind.

“So, which member of parliament would you like to introduce?”

“The pharmacist already knows, doesn’t he? He’s called Seongsujang.”

“Um, Holy Water Market? Did you just say Holy Water Market?”

“Yes. Do you know?”

"I know. Who in the martial world today doesn't know the Holy Spirit? Isn't he the most rising righteousness?"

“Hey, really?”

Wi Yeon-ho felt strangely happy.

'You must be making a lot of money, right?'

Jin So-ah may not know, but the governor is a money demon who believes that money can control even ghosts, so he's probably already sweeping up gold with a rake. And all that money belongs to Wi Yeon-ho.

“Why are you smiling so sinisterly?”

“You mean, sinister?”

“You look so vicious right now, and that expression on your face is really annoying.”

“I think I’m going to blow out all the poison.”

“……I’ll close my eyes. Don’t worry about it and keep talking.”

Wi Yeon-ho coughed once and continued speaking.

"I can call the member of parliament who's related to Seongsujang. I think he has some experience. I heard that the podium was Seongsujang's specialty."

“Is that so?”

Surprisingly, the reaction from the pharmacist was lukewarm.

"While Seongsujang has long been renowned for its acupuncture and pedicure, that's a legacy of his predecessors. Today, Seongsujang is praised not for his exceptional medical skills, but for his generous spirit as a doctor. Oh, of course…"

The herbalist swallowed dry saliva and continued speaking.

"I also acknowledge that a congressional mindset is paramount for a congressman. That's why I respect them. However, I'm not sure if they'll be of any help in this matter…"

“Is that so?”

Wi Yeon-ho shrugged his shoulders in response to Dangcheon-gun's question.

“Everything you said is correct.”

“Huh? Then there’s no point in introducing yourself, right?”

"I never intended to bring them here in the first place. They need to make money. They're not the type of people who would come here and waste their time. And I agree that they're not particularly helpful."

“What does that mean?”

“The person I’m bringing isn’t from Seongsujang. He’s someone who used to be at Seongsujang.”

“……Well, speak frankly. Why are you beating around the bush like that?”

“The owner of Seongsujang is Jin So-ah.”

“I heard that too.”

"But the most skilled person from Seongsujang isn't Soa. It's his older sister. Her name is Jin Ye-ran."

“Jin Ye-ran?”

Dangcheon-gun tilted his head.

But the pharmacist opened his eyes wide.

“Jin Ye-ran? Is she by any chance a saint in that martial arts world?”

“Yes. That’s him.”

“……Are you saying that person is from Seongsujang?”

"yes."

“No, what is this…….”

The pharmacist's face twisted as if he couldn't believe it.

“Saint… I’ve heard rumors about her too. But I thought it was a rather exaggerated nickname. Is there a reason why the head of the medical household is so surprised?”

"The reputation of the Holy Water Master is soaring. But the reputation of Jin Ye-ran, known as the Saintess of Nasan, is even greater. If it were revealed that she came from the Holy Water Master, the reputation of the Holy Water Master would rise even higher. Why is that fact being kept hidden?"

“Oh, not anymore. We broke up and separated.”

“……Etiquette?”

"It's a bit of a stretch to call it etiquette, but… they say it's about the direction of medical practice. It's a common occurrence. It's like someone arguing over the interpretation of a single test and then packing up and leaving."

“Yes. It’s a common occurrence. That kind of thing happened!”

The pharmacist slapped his thigh, as if he finally understood the situation.

“Hmm, that’s not important. So you think that Jin Ye-ran, the Nasan Saintess, will be helpful in this matter?”

"yes."

“But isn’t he too young? What does the medicine master think?”

“I’m also concerned about that part.”

When the two people expressed their concerns, Wei Yanhu shook his head.

"Your skills are definitely there. Maybe even better than I think."

"……okay?"

Dangcheon-gun still looked suspicious. More than anything, he didn't think Wi Yeon-ho had the eye to discern medical skills, let alone his lack of education.

'Tsk, I've been living a lie.'

Wi Yeon-ho clicked his tongue softly.

He didn't know either.

It was only after coming here that I realized the true excellence of Jin Ye-ran's medical skills. To understand something you don't know, you need a standard.

Wi Yeon-ho, who had only seen Jin So-ah and Jin Ye-ran, had no standard. The person who provided that standard was none other than the head of the medical school.

'There won't be any shortage.'

Wi Yeon-ho had already seen Jin Ye-ran treat patients several times. At first, he assumed all doctors did this, but seeing the head of the medical practice made him understand.

'somehow.'

Ha Dae-bung resigned from his position as branch manager of the Galaxy Battlefield and took over as the commander of the Holy Water Field. No matter how renowned the Holy Water Field was, he would never have done such a thing without Jin So-ah's medical expertise.

Jin So-ah's skills are by no means lacking, not even compared to her peers, but even considering the entire hospital. In fact, she should be considered exceptional. The medical skills of the renowned Seongsujang were not lost on the field.

The person who couldn't even utter a word against the outstanding Jin So-ah was Jin Ye-ran. Wi Yeon-ho, who didn't know anything about medicine, thought that Jin So-ah was weak and Jin Ye-ran was like a warrior.

But that's not it. This happened because Jin Ye-ran's medical skills were beyond Jin So-ah's reach.

My older sister is good at medicine and has a strong personality. How could I possibly resist? If she tells me to die, I'll have to pretend to die.

“Are you sure it will help?”

“I think it will fill in the gaps that the pharmacist lacks.”

“But you probably have only a little experience.”

“Can you fill in the blanks with your limited experience?”

"hmm……."

The pharmacist nodded.

'In the end, this guy was right.'

The beginning was reckless. But the result was right. As Jang Il said, Wi Yeon-ho was always like that.

Then wouldn't it be okay to believe it?

“Okay, call me.”

“Actually, I already called. Maybe….”

Just then, someone knocked on the conference room door.

“What’s going on!”

When Dang Yong-min got annoyed, the door opened slightly.

“A guest has arrived.”

"customer?"

People's eyes were focused on Wi Yeon-ho.
