Chronicles of the Lazy Sovereign Novel - Chapter 58

Chapter 58

Jin So-ah looked at Wei Yan-ho with a frown.

Oh, seriously, don’t look at me with those eyes, I really don’t because it bothers me.

“I’ve heard stories of martial artists curing diseases that even doctors couldn’t treat!”

“That’s all bullshit.”

“……what?”

“If so, wouldn’t martial arts doctors also learn? Why would they be crazy enough to learn medicine when their effectiveness is minimal? If martial artists could cure diseases, would they risk their lives waving swords and fighting to earn money? They would simply become doctors and earn good money living comfortably and easily.”

“……”

“Well, it looks like you’ve heard weird rumors out there, but that’s all nonsense. They’re just fanfare about those bastards with a sword, and with lime in their throats they’re talking nonsense that’s useless.”

Jin So-ah listened with empty expression to Wei Yan-ho’s defense that flowed like a clear stream, then spoke urgently.

“That… I… doesn’t matter all that, please help me somehow!”

I don’t know anything!

“You know the acupuncture points, don’t you?”

“I know that.”

– Then please press this patient’s acupuncture points. Quickly!

Faced with Jin So-ah’s appearance, almost foaming in his mouth as he shouted, Wei Yan-ho snapped his tongue and crouched in front of the patient who vomited blood.

“What do I have to do?”

“Press the Tiantu acupuncture point with half ap of force, and press the Zhongfu acupuncture point with a force point.”

Wei Yan-ho looked at the patient and raised his hand with reticent expression.

“Then… the Tiantu acupuncture point is half a pun, and the Zhongfu acupuncture point is a pun…”

Wei Yan-ho pressed the patient a couple of times and then looked at Jin So-ah with a slightly pale face.

Hey, does this person look strange to you right now?

Jin So-ah, who had been pressing the patient’s wound, turned his head. “The patient’s face paled. Now even blood foam came out of his mouth.”

“Did you press the Tiantu acupuncture point with half a pun and the Zhongfu acupuncture point with a pun?”

“Then the Tiantu acupuncture point is here, and the Zhongfu acupuncture point is here.”

After confirming where Wei Yan-ho was aiming, Jin So-ah screamed frantically.

“That’s the Zhongfu acupuncture point? Damn you, you’re worse than dog shit!”

“That’s a tough language…”

“A martial artist who doesn’t even know where the Zhongfu acupuncture point is!”

Wei Yan-ho stepped back with a wounded expression.

“Well, I didn’t learn it formally, but broadly, so I could make some mistakes.”

“Don’t you see that the patient is dying?”

Wei Yan-ho got discouraged.

“I’m sorry.”

The Zhongfu acupuncture point is down there, press it again!

“I don’t want to.”

“What?”

Wei Yan-ho had become a wounded fern, dropping completely.

“I don’t want to do it when you force me to do something I said I didn’t want to do, and then they scold me for not doing it right. I just won’t do it.”

Jin So-ah despaired.

“I won’t curse anymore, so please do it.”

“Forget it. I’ll be a worse bastard again than dog shit if I don’t do it right. Why did you insist that someone who said he was going to stay and do it?”

Jin So-ah shouted with all his might.

“Well, first, press that patient’s acupuncture points! A person is dying right now! A person!”

“It’s better that I kill him by playing him wrong.”

Jin So-ah desperately grabbed the golden needle in his chest.

If I throw this away, will it stick to that annoying bastard’s body?

Then Jin Ye-ran helped Jin So-ah.

I apologize on behalf of my younger brother for his rude words. Right now, the patient’s life hangs by a thread, so please blame us later and help us now; we would appreciate it.

Wei Yan-ho nodded with reticent expression.

Well, since I’m generous, I’m just gonna help, but the kid seems to lack education.

Jin So-ah wanted to pounce on Wei Yan-ho and fight no matter if the patient lived or died, but he repressed his anger with superhuman patience.

Wei Yan-ho approached the patient and pressed again the Tiantu and Zhongfu acupuncture points. The patient, who had been foaming out, calmed down and heard a shallow breathing.

Does it look like he can breathe?

The line has just widened. You have to press under the patient’s solar plexus to spit phlegm with blood!

Wei Yan-ho pressed the patient’s solar plexus.

“Nothing comes out?”

“Press harder!”

“If I press harder than this, this person’s organs will explode!”

Then we have to extract it in another way! It will soon be blocked again. If we don’t extract it, that person will die!

“What do I have to do?”

“Suck it in the mouth.”

“Huh?”

Wei Yan-ho looked at Jin So-ah with his eyes wide open.

“Put your mouth in the patient’s mouth and lift it up.”

“Um, then…”

Wei Yan-ho looked at the patient and said with a brilliant smile.

“So I need to put my mouth in this guy’s mouth and suck the bloody phlegm that is blocked inside?”

“That’s right.”

“Is there no other way?”

No, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no,

“That the patient dies is a problem, but that my precious heart dies is also a big problem…”

“What are you talking about!”

Wei Yan-ho shook his head firmly.

I can’t, I can’t, damn it, it’s my first time!

– What’s your first time, you bastard?

Jin So-ah was so hot he could barely breathe.

“Just take out what’s blocked in your throat?”

That’s right, it’s urgent!

“Then you should have said it from the beginning. Why are you forcing me to press the acupuncture points without reason and insult me?”

“What?”

Wei Yan-ho grumbled incessantly as if he was upset and took his hand to the patient’s mouth.

When Wei Yan-ho placed the palm of his hand over the patient’s mouth and raised his hand, a dark red blood clot came out of the patient’s mouth into the air.

“Hueok?”

Jin So-ah asked in shock.

“What did you do?”

“I sucked it.”

What, with your hand?

Well, anyway, it’s done, isn’t it?

Leave that patient alone and please take care of the patient next door. Please remove the phlegm with blood trapped in that patient’s throat in the same way.

Wei Yan-ho complained, but he obediently treated patients as Jin So-ah ordered him.

After removing the phlegm, Jin So-ah threw the golden needle out of his chest.

Wei Yan-ho caught the golden needle, frowned and asked Jin So-ah.

“What’s this for?”

“Please press the acupuncture points Qihai and Juque of the patient standing in front of him to a depth of half chi. ”

“Can’t I do it like before?”

On that occasion, it was enough to press, but this time you have to keep it inserted at least during a shijin . Without needles, the procedure cannot be performed.

Wei Yan-ho shook his head.

I don’t know how to use this, and if it requires acupuncture with such fine needles, what I do doesn’t make any sense, even if the direction is a little off, it loses its meaning.

Jin So-ah believed Wei Yan-ho was right. Although he had turned to his help in his despair, acupuncture without proper knowledge would become harmful.

Depending on how needles are inserted, life acupuncture points ( saenghyeol ) can become death acupuncture points ( sahyeol ); that is exactly what acupuncture is.

‘What do I have to do?’

He wanted to perform the acupuncture himself, but if only Jin Ye-ran and Jin So-ah realized it, they would waste time and people would die.

Press the acupuncture points Juque and Qihai to a depth of half chi ? For a shijin ?

“Yes!”

“I can do it without needles.”

“What?”

Wei Yan-ho touched and dropped his fingers on the patient’s acupuncture points Qihai and Juque.

“Done.”

“What?”

“ He will remain under pressure from a Shijin. ”

“What are you talking about!”

Jin So-ah was about to get angry, but he closed his mouth. On second thought, Wei Yan-ho is a martial artist. Maybe his methods are different than his own. Didn’t he make the patient spit phlegm with blood with his hand?

“Come here and keep pushing this patient’s chest!”

Well, kill me at work, kill me at work and give me back where I belong.

While Wei Yan-ho held the patient, Jin So-ah quickly ran to the patient Wei Yan-ho had treated and checked his pulse.

‘Acupuncture points are pressed even without needles!’

I couldn’t understand how it worked, but as he confirmed it was effective, he had to use it.

“Leave that patient alone and press the acupuncture points Jingmen, Tianzhu and Weizhong of that patient there at the depths of a chi, half chi and one chi respectively!”

The irritation took hold of Wei Yan-ho’s face.

Do I have to do it again? I’m tired and exhausted.

‘What did you do to be tired and exhausted!’

It was something I could never say out loud.

Please, it’s to save the patient!

“ Eing.”

Wei Yan-ho complained, but followed Jin So-ah’s instructions to treat patients.

After running frantically for approximately half shijin, patient conditions gradually began to stabilize.

Jin So-ah dried her sweat off her face and rose from the ground.

The patients who completed the treatment were transferred to their rooms by the servants, so only he, Jin Ye-ran and Wei Yan-ho remained in the courtyard.

Jin So-ah looked at Wei Yan-ho.

Wei Yan-ho, with the irritation and anger reflected on his face, lay on the ground with his eyes closed. He demonstrated the miraculous ability to express with his face and body: “I am very tired and exhausted right now, so I will not move, regardless of the task you assign me.”

“Thank you for your hard work.”

You kill me working and then you say “thank you for your hard work” and that’s it!

Jin Ye-ran bowed his head to Wei Yan-ho.

“Thanks to the young master Wei, we were able to save the lives of the patients. Thank you for your help.”

“…… Kheumm.”

Wei Yan-ho still had his face full of complaints, but unlike Jin So-ah, he did not openly argue with Jin Ye-ran. Well, anyone who saw Jin Ye-ran’s current state could not argue with her.

Jin Ye-ran’s face was covered in sweat and dirt, his white robes dyed bright red with the patients’ blood and his hair was also in terrible condition with blood and dust.

No one could blame a girl who seemed barely of age, holding patients soaked in blood and inserting needles.

“I’ll have water for the bathroom ready, so please go wash yourself.”

“I’m fine…”

Wei Yan-ho looked at his clothes and shut up. He could not walk in his clothes covered with blood and pus. Even Wei Yan-ho could distinguish between his own sweat and the blood of others.

“I’ll wash. But it seems you’re in a more hurry than I am…”

Jin Ye-ran shook his head.

“I need more patient care.”

“If you see patients like that…”

Changing clothes is very simple. I no longer need the help of young master Wei. I am very grateful for what you have done so far. Now, please go wash and rest.

“Yes.”

Jin Ye-ran nodded and turned around.

Seeing the figure slightly wobbly from Jin Ye-ran, Wei Yan-ho unconsciously stretched out his hand.

“Are you okay?”

– I’m fine. So… oh, get ready.

“Yes, big sister.”

Jin So-ah and Jin Ye-ran headed fast for the medical room where the patients were.

Wei Yan-ho looked at them without understanding and sighed.

“It’s not easy.”

Each profession, every life has different aspects, and it seemed ridiculous to him to think that doctors lived comfortable lives after having seen only a short time.

Wei Yan-ho stared at the backs of the two people on their way to the room, then walked towards the bathroom.
