I Reincarnated as a Legendary Surgeon

Episode 5. Cheopcheopsanjung (1)

Each of the medicines is expensive enough to make your mouth open in this era, but it does not fit the symptoms of cholecystitis at all.

Hwa-bok briefly recalled the time when he was at the university hospital.

‘Most of the family members taking care of them fed water boiled with jara flowers or corn silk to cholecystitis patients.’

I knew about corn silk, but I didn’t know about jara flower, but now I know what it looks like.

Some of the doctors at the hospital didn’t like the behavior of the patients’ families, but most didn’t stop them because they knew that it worked even slightly.

‘Even if ginseng or antler is expensive, there’s no way my family wouldn’t buy it if it worked for cholecystitis.’

After organizing his thoughts in his mind, the fireman opened his mouth.

“Brother, these medicines do not help my mother in any way.”

“huh! what are you talking about?”

“My mother is sick because the small pouch under her liver is filled with something hard like a stone.”

“If you are referring to the small pouch under the liver, are you referring to the gallbladder?”

“yes.”

For a moment, the fireman was slightly startled inwardly.

He wasn’t surprised by his older brother, but he was embarrassed that he hadn’t yet adapted to the terminology of this era.

‘That’s right, the gallbladder is gallbladder. Medical terminology seems to be stuck in my head.’

“It’s filled with something hard like a stone?”

“yes.”

“You mean you found that out by pressing the stomach?”

“yes.”

Hwa-bok looked at the painter for a long time with suspicious eyes as if he was surprised but disbelieved.

When the painter answered with confident eyes without averting his gaze, he pondered for a moment and then nodded.

“hmm-. I can’t believe it, but I won’t talk nonsense about my mother’s illness, so I’ll believe it for now. Then, how should I change the decoction?”

“When the gallbladder is inflamed, drinking water boiled with jara flowers or corn silk is the only way to reduce the pain.”

“Good luck? You sound like there is a better way.”

“The best way is to get rid of things like stones in the gallbladder.”

“How do you get rid of gallstones in your stomach?”

“It is said that lawmakers beyond the Great Wall and beyond the West Station open the belly with a knife and remove it.”

“what! Open the belly with kaka? What are you talking about! Hey, what a fool!”

The flowerpot screamed in anger.

* * *

The painter took a long, deep breath as he watched not only his brothers but also his mother react violently.

In fact, in my head, from the time I found out about my mother’s illness, I had been seriously contemplating whether I should bring this up or not.

He was also well aware of the reaction of the people of this era to the sunfish. That’s why I decided not to talk about surgery in line with the times.

However, when he saw his mother, whose disease was evident, his body reacted violently.

It was as if a soul that had already left the body had come back and begged me to save my mother.

That’s why he mentioned Western medicine while expecting a backlash.

Whoa-. Yes, since I am resurrected from your body, I will try to save your mother somehow. It’s not cancer surgery, it’s just cholecystitis, so I’ll do something.

“Brother, opening the ship does not mean that a person will die. If only the inflamed area is removed and closed, the mother can live a healthy life in the future.”

“Yeah, I heard you. Medicine beyond the Great Wall Yes, that’s great. but it’s a fire Until now, this brother had never heard of someone cutting open a stomach to remove inflammation. No, I can’t even think of it.”

The painter seemed to know how much he was holding back his anger when he saw his eldest brother, Hwa-bok, talking with his eyes closed. The second older brother, the pot, was already snorting vigorously.

The momentum to throw a fist right away.

However, the painter spoke more calmly than his older brother.

“If left as it is, my mother will eventually die.”

“what! die. this guy! There’s really nothing this guy can’t say! How dare you speak such nonsense!”

Suddenly, the second brother interrupted in anger.

The painter gritted his teeth gently and opened his mouth to the second brother.

“Yes, it is true that I said it too easily. But brother, you may be uncomfortable listening to it, but you have to accept it calmly. If we leave it like this, mother will…”

Jjaak.

In an instant, the fireman’s head turned.

The second brother suddenly slapped the fireman on the cheek.

“I told you to cover up. Where in front of mother!!”

Oh shit!

The fireman, greatly staggered, reflexively punched his second brother.

It would be unimaginable if you were a fireman in the past, but as the owner of the body changed, it moved according to the changed person’s temperament.

Shuaak.

However, the fireman’s fist cut through the empty space instead of the potted plant’s face.

“Why did you punch your brother just now? You must be really crazy!”

Shuang.

When the flower pot, which lightly avoided his fist, bent his upper body and stretched out his fist, the painter was frightened.

It was a problem that his brother’s fist was as big and hard as a pot lid, but the bigger problem was that it was so fast that there was no time to dodge or block it.

He was a fireman who had fought a little before, but all he could do was put his head back.

It was the only way to minimize the impact when it was hit.

‘shit!’

The painter closed his eyes tightly without realizing it.

“…..”

Gap.

But for some reason, I didn’t feel any pain on my face.

I hurriedly opened my eyes and saw an unfamiliar hand.

When he stretched out, the older brother’s palm was blocking the second brother’s fist.

“What are you doing in front of your mother?”

“Sorry. older brother. But Won-hwa was too reckless to talk about…”

“Even if I said recklessly, I should call her later and tell her quietly. Should I cut my hand in front of my mother?”

“sorry.”

“Don’t apologize to me, apologize to your mother.”

“Mother … Sorry.”

ha-.

The mother let out a long sigh with a pale face, probably surprised.

“Coin, I’m worried because you’re always impatient.”

Coin was the name of the second older brother, Flowerpot, when he was a child.

“sorry.”

“Even though Won-hwa mentioned the medicine of the western region, how much he must have wanted to heal me.”

“…..”

“And even though Won-Hwa was beaten by his brother, they still punch each other. Where did you learn such naughty things?”

“…..”

Eh, being slapped on the cheek and being scolded. I knew it would turn out like this, but…

The fireman had something boiling inside him, but he couldn’t bring himself to spit it out.

The mother stared at the fireman for a long time before answering, then opened her mouth again.

“Whoa~. As Won-hwa said, water boiled with jara or corn beard may be more effective than expensive medicines, so let’s change the decoction first.”

“Don’t worry about your mother’s money…”

“If you change it and it doesn’t work, you can follow the doctor’s prescription again.”

“That is true. All right.”

“Yes, I want to rest now. Everyone, go out.”

“Your mother.”

The painter followed his brothers out of the main house and touched their tingling cheeks.

‘Well… I was a bit harsh. Do you even hit me for that?’

As we passed the yard, the second potted plant said to the fireman who kept touching the cheek.

“Wonhwa-ya, I’m sorry that hyung stabbed you. Seeing no improvement in my mother’s illness, I must have become very nervous.”

“No bro. I guess I said it without thinking too much.”

But the fireman had other thoughts in his mind.

‘Surgery is necessary. But I want to do it right now, but I don’t have the tools…’

If possible, I’ll get consent, but what if they don’t agree?

‘Even secretly.’

Perhaps in this atmosphere, the operation could have failed and the mother could have died.

I’ll try to figure out a way until the worst happens, but if you keep opposing it, there’s no other way.

“By the way, the punching earlier was pretty brutal. I could have been right.”

When the second brother’s hand tried to put it on his shoulder, as if to show friendliness, the painter reflexively raised his right hand to block it.

“uh! What is this?”

The flower pot looked at the hand of his brother who blocked his hand with an absurd expression.

“Hyung, after a long time, shall we play Santa?”

Santa was a word that meant bare-handed competition or sparring without weapons.

“Santa! I’m fine. You said you met a bandit, so you really made up your mind.”

The fireman answered “yes” on the outside, while swearing on the inside.

* * *

Hwabok, the eldest brother, pretended to stop at first because his two younger sisters were Santa, but he couldn’t help it when not only the flower pots but also the painters were stubborn.

“Address in moderation and finish.”

Hwabok sighed and said.

When the eldest brother disappeared, the flower pot’s expression became relieved.

“Haha, housekeeper, are you doing this because you were Santa during the Chinese New Year?”

‘Come to think of it, my second brother hit me for teaching me martial arts even during the Chinese New Year.’

I was annoyed at being slapped on the cheek a little while ago, but when I recalled the old memories that my body remembered, my annoyance doubled.

“I didn’t take that little thing to heart. It’s just because I thought I should definitely learn martial arts. Hyung-nim is the best master among the people I know.”

The painter hid his true feelings and instead praised his brother.

“master! haha i did pretty well Even if I don’t have a study head, I’m the best among my siblings at using my body.”

“You have to play Santa with Go Soo-in hyung to improve your skills.”

“yes. After studying in Xuzhou, you finally recognize your brother! Let’s like it.”

“yes.”

The painter followed his second brother and looked back on what had happened in the main house earlier.

‘A bear-like body with sharp, fast fists. But no matter what, she’s only 18.’

Tracing my memory, I looked back on the Santa process with my second brother, and when I was attacked, I did not attack anymore, but waited until I got up and attacked again.

‘Compared to his impatient personality, he was rather gentlemanly. But today will be very different from the old me.’

The fireman took a long, deep breath to calm his pounding heart.

On one side of the backyard where the two arrived, firewood was piled up and no one was visible.

“It is quiet and nice. Release your body first.”

“yes.”

The painter warmed up, but the flower pot remained still with his arms crossed.

“Isn’t your brother warming up?”

“Why are you so relaxed just playing Santa with you?”

“Haha, that’s right.”

‘Yes, be vigilant like that.’

The fireman warmed up for about 10 minutes and checked his condition.

Although he was thin and small for a 15-year-old, his body was as light as flying.

‘If I’m in this condition, I’m out of size, but it’s worth a try.’

“Are you all warmed up?”

“yes.”

“Then let’s begin. Try attacking.”

“yes. going.”

The fireman jumped abruptly at his older brother, who had not yet relaxed his arms, and punched him.

‘Attack is also a surprise attack…’

Puck.

The fireman’s fist stopped reaching his brother before he could reach it. No, it was pushed back.

It wasn’t that the fist was pushed, but that the body was flying backwards and the fist was also going backwards.

As the fireman flew backwards, he saw his brother’s feet stretched forward at the level of his own chest.

‘Oh when? Even my shoulders didn’t move…’
