I Reincarnated as a Legendary Surgeon

Episode 213. Aftereffects (2)

The fireman hurriedly ordered the servants to catch the leech, dissolved it in clean water, and made the leech vomit takki and miasma on its own. Then, to collect and purify hirudin, it was heated over a fire.

Hirudin has a characteristic that its properties do not change even when heat is applied.

After the painter finished all the purification of hirudin, he received a portion of the cerebrospinal fluid going into the abdominal cavity and mixed the purified hirudin to check the condition.

‘It became clear as it became watery! It works!’

When hirudin showed its effect, the painter blocked the tube coming out of the second wife’s ventricle and injected hirudin into the venous sinus entrance with a long needle to see if the intracranial pressure increased.

As I used my clairvoyant powers to examine my head, I saw that the meninges were slowly swelling.

‘Did I put in too little? Should the cerebrospinal fluid be pumped back into the abdominal cavity? Or should I add a little more hirudin?’

When the fireman saw a bad sign, he thought a lot and was conflicted. And with a sense of nervousness, he increased the amount of hirudin injection.

More hirudin was injected and after a while, the swelling of the meninges stopped.

It was a short time, but he was so focused and intense that sweat dripped from the burner’s nose.

‘It works! It works just as expected! If I keep looking at it like this and adjust the amount of hirudin injection, it will return to normal.’

The painter wanted to call for a long live.

In fact, this is the first brain surgery with such difficulty, so if the result is good, confidence is gained, but if the result is bad, the next time you meet a similar patient, you will be reluctant.

I was worried that it could cause mental trauma and that it would bring great disappointment to her family, but those worries were blown away in one shot.

* * *

Guangling County is Guangling Province, Gou Pyeongan. It was a county composed of four prefectures.

Usually, monarchs naturally fight back when another monarch’s soldiers invade the place they rule.

Since Jingju’s Yangyang army was attacking as a robber, the ruler of Gwangneung County had to send soldiers to fight back.

However, the governor of Gwangneung-gun dismissed the fight in Gangdo as just a fight between Sun Ce and Liu Biao, as if he were looking at cows and chickens.

“Tch, you cheeky grandsons… should have gone bankrupt at this point. Looks like you managed to hold on again.”

When Guangling Governor Cheng Guang heard the news that Sun Ce had defeated Liu Biao’s army, instead of being happy, he was rather sad.

In fact, while Sun Jian was the ruler of Jiangdong, the Qing governor gave Sun Jian many soldiers and property.

Like the rituals of the feudal lords of this era, Sun Jian did not return the soldiers or property once borrowed.

For that reason, the governor of Qing hated Sun Jian and also hated his son, Sun Ce.

“Father, I’m so sorry, but why don’t you drink and wipe the robber’s hand with Liu Pyo at this time?”

Cheongsu’s head shook at the words of the third son, Cheongsu.

“Although Liu Biao’s 3,000 soldiers fought for Sun Jian’s death, they could not win. He’s young, so there’s not much to see, but the generals who followed Sun Jian are still alive and well.”

“It’s healthy, but the new owner is young and anxious anyway. Moreover, Liu Biao was attacked by hand and fire attacks because he did not know the robbery, but we know the robbery well.”

“Hmm~. I heard and saw it. No one knows the way the Songa fight better than we do.”

“If you give me 3,000 soldiers, I will wipe my hands and come back.”

“Liu Biao-kun also failed with 3,000, so will you make it to 3,000?”

“Enough. And if I say this, you might get angry, but…”

“…..”

“….even if I lose, it won’t be a loss.”

“Isn’t it a loss even if you lose? What bullshit are you talking about?”

“Even if I lose, will I just come back after being defeated? At least it will do similar damage.”

“What would it be?”

“And if you lose, I’ll have Liu Biao-kun gossip a little exaggeratedly about how much damage Sunji took from me.”

“Hmm~. Are you planning to have Liu Biao’s army attack Sun Ji again?”

“yes. Liu Biao, who heard the rumors, will definitely attack Sun Ji again. Because of that, it’s okay if Sun Jia perishes, and it’s okay if Liu Biao is ruined. If one of them perishes, we can easily devour the robber and the torture stake.”

When the third son finished talking, Taesoo Cheong unconsciously smacked his lips.

It is also important to remove the hand guard that was like a thorn in the eye, but if it swallows the pillar, it can glar at the world.

Suddenly, greed rose up.

“good night. In that case, I will give you 3,000 cavalrymen, so wave your hand and come.”

“All right. Father, not Tae-soo.”

* * *

The second wife started to improve little by little after the injection of hirudin and the removal of the shunt line.

Since it is impossible to guarantee how much improvement will be achieved after a cerebral hemorrhage, the painter did not leave his hand and looked at her condition for a long time, changing the treatment method according to the symptoms.

And thanks to that, Hwabu has accumulated a lot of know-how about the brain.

In the hospital of the future, a doctor who starts with diagnosing the patient and treats the surgery and the aftermath is not in charge. However, the painter went through the whole process here.

Even though it was only one person, thanks to him, a lot of knowledge about the brain that I knew only in theory was applied in practice, and I also gained confidence in brain surgery.

Second, when Mrs. O stopped urinating and urinating on her own, and although she was a bit clumsy, she was able to speak and move around. The people of the Sun family not only treated the cook, but even the disciples, guards, and servants treated the cook as if they were their masters.

They were surprised to see that the surgery was performed by opening a person’s head, but they could see how hard the fireman worked and studied to restore her.

“It’s time to leave!”

The painter said goodbye to the people of the Son family when the exclusive poet of the Son family became enough to treat them.

“The great grace of Master Hwa, who healed both mothers…. I will cherish it deep in my heart until I die.”

When Sun Ce greeted them as the representative, the people from the Sun family behind them bowed their heads in unison.

“I just did what I was supposed to do as a senator. By the way, the situation around you is rough these days, so you’ll have to be extra careful.”

“Since Mr. Zhuge took over the military, we have been strengthening our defenses.”

The painter patted the shoulder of Zhuge Kun, who was next to Sun Ce.

“Keun-ah, stay safe until we see you next time.”

“I hope your Master Teacher is all right.”

The painter said goodbye to Son’s family and other generals, and crossed Munsan and headed for Gwangneung-gun.

When the fireman disappeared and the people from the Sun family who had come to see him off dispersed, Zhuge Kun approached Sun Ce with heavy sunken eyes.

“The principal.”

“yes. Why are you so dark? Master Zhuge.”

“About half an hour ago, intelligence came up and said that 3,000 cavalrymen from Gwangneung County were moving toward us.”

“yes! And Gwangneung-gun? Taesoo Chung is provoking after all.”

Sun Ce smiled bitterly, as if he knew this would happen.

“Even though we defeated Liu Biao’s soldiers, many feudal lords still regard us as easy opponents.”

“I can’t help it now that my father is dead. In the past, they were all trembling at the words of their father…”

A long sigh escaped from Sun Ce’s lips.

Even though he traveled around the battlefield with his father, he was a young head of household who was only 18 years old.

The surrounding feudal lords took him lightly, and the generals and soldiers under his command finally got rid of their anxiety. At least, that anxiety was dispelled because Zhuge Geun allowed him to beat Liu Pyo-gun so greatly, otherwise he would have had a pretty tough time.

“Gwangleunggun will pay the price for daring to be easy on the Duke of Zhou.”

“Do you have any tricks like when you dealt with Liu Biao-kun?”

“It’s not a silver bullet because it’s about ambushing soldiers at the corner of the road, but if you don’t get caught, you can do a lot of damage. Also, most of the soldiers who were injured in the past were treated by Master Hwaeo’s disciples and most of them recovered. Then it’s a good opportunity because you won’t be able to take it lightly after that.”

Sun Ce’s eyes lit up at Zhuge’s words.

Jegalgeun was thinking of expanding the territory rather than simply ending with defense.

In the past, taking away another monarch’s territory was something that could not be done due to a weak cause, but now it was a time when it was taken for granted to expand the territory by taking away another monarch’s territory.

“If we can get Gwangneung-gun into our hands… we will be able to fulfill our father’s unfulfilled dream.”

“yes. Furthermore, if rumors spread that Gwangneung-gun has been taken over by the Duke of Juk this time, talented people from all over the country will flock to it like clouds.”

In war, resourcefulness is important, but human resources and materials are just as important.

“I need to call the generals and plan a plan right away.”

“Eul Danju.”

After a fork in the road, the painter called to Eulji.

“Yes, Senator.”

“Please take the left path.”

“yes? to the left? Then I will go back to Pyeongan County rather than Gwangneung.”

“Before I left Sonjiazhuang, I was told by Geuni not to go to Gwangneung. 3,000 cavalrymen are coming in about a day and a half.”

“If there are 3,000 cavalrymen… is the Gwangneung Army attacking the robbers?”

“yes.”

“You must know the strength of Son Jie-jang, who destroyed 3,000 Liu Pyo-guns not too long ago…. To attack with a similar force. I don’t understand.”

“How can you know the true intentions of those who are fighting? However, if we keep going this way, we might run into cavalrymen and get tired, so let’s go back.”

“All right. Then I will turn to Pyong’an County.”

Hwabu’s party did not intend to stay in Pyeongan-hyeon, but rather passed through it and returned to Chohyeon, so they thought that they would not be in danger even if a war broke out.

But when I arrived at Pyongan County and saw the slums, I couldn’t just ignore it and pass by.

Even ordinary slums are better than beggars in carrying out economic life to some extent, but the slums of Pyeongan County were not much different from beggars.

Gangnam, the lower part of the Yellow River in the original city, was an area with warm weather and abundant water, so few people died of starvation. But now, the common people in the street were like the poor, the poor were like beggars, and the beggars seemed almost starved to death.

“Lord Eul.”

“Yes, Senator.”

“Who is the richest person here in Pyongan County?”

“It’s a choir.”

“Please find out if anyone is sick at the choir.”

“yes.”

The fireman knew that no matter how starving the people were, the storehouses of barons and dignitaries were filled with food.

If there were any sick among them, he would treat them, receive grain as payment, and distribute them to the poor.

While Eulji sent someone to find out about Seonggajang’s situation, the painter opened a temporary medical clinic near the slums.
