Chapter 33

Episode 33. I will live as a doctor (1)

“Why are you silent?”

“Ah yes. It hurts because I pressed too hard.”

The fireman hurriedly evaded it moderately.

I want to have surgery right away, but the opposition from my family is also a problem, and I am not ready to have surgery yet.

Of course, if this current chronic disease develops acutely, even if I am not ready, I will have to have surgery, but I had to hurry up and prepare for the surgery until then.

‘Six months at most? If it’s short, I’ll collapse from an acute attack within three months...’

It’s good if I can convince my family to have surgery within three months, but if it’s not possible, I’ll have to go ahead with surgery even if my family opposes it.

‘For now, I’ll have to prepare for surgery and convince my brother and mother.’

The fireman let out a short sigh and continued facilitating.

‘uh! What else is this? It seems that the liver is oversized compared to the mother’s physique...’

“Mother, try lying down.”

“Get down. like this?”

“yes.”

The painter looked to the left and right of the mother’s prone back.

Comparing the left and right sides between the 7th and 8th thoracic vertebrae, if the left side was swollen, it was due to indigestion, and if the right side was swollen, the liver was swollen.

‘The right side is also swollen. This is a typical symptom of fatty liver.’

When fatty liver develops, it can lead to liver cirrhosis or liver cancer.

Both the liver and gallbladder were in poor condition, causing complications.

“Are you sick here?”

“It hurts a bit, but it’s rather refreshing.”

“Are you sick here?”

“It hurts a lot. Why is that?”

“Your liver is a little swollen, but are you tired these days?”

“Yeah, I’m tired these days, even though I sleep a lot for some reason.”

The painter examined the color of her eyes and face, and also touched her neck and legs.

The neck and legs were acupuncture points related to the liver or gallbladder.

Those places were hard and sensitive enough to complain of pain just by touching them.

“I’ll put some saliva on you, mother.”

“saliva! Do you know how to make a bed?”

When the painter took out the spittle, she put on a puzzled expression.

“I learned from Congressman Bong, but these days, Congressman Bong is learning to spit well enough to learn from me.”

“Isn’t saliva something that can be learned so quickly?”

“I read a lot of medical books in Seoju and knew all the existing acupuncture points. I just didn’t know how to place it or how deep it was, but it was simple because I knew the principle.”

“That’s right. Since I was so smart from a young age, I could have learned faster than others.”

“yes. It will sting a little when you put your acupuncture needles.”

While talking, the painter played with his hands, sterilized the saliva once with gwiju, and then began inserting it into the acupuncture points of the liver and gallbladder.

‘I can’t cure it with this, but I can buy time.’

As the saliva hit the nerves, the liver and gallbladder slowly and forcibly began to activate.

Just as drinking a glass of alcohol the next day after heavy drinking activates the liver and relieves a hangover, activating the liver and gallbladder with acupuncture relieves fatigue quickly and reduces inflammation in the gallbladder.

Of course, this treatment was not a fundamental treatment to remove gallstones.

After about one day, the painter pulled out the needle and checked the mother’s condition once more.

“How are you?”

“Yes, it has improved a lot.”

The painter deliberately lied to reassure his mother.

“Then can I stop drinking the water boiled with corn beard and water boiled with jara?”

“no. You still have to eat it. Until it gets better.”

“Yeah, that’s right. I get it.”

“Okay then I’ll go out.”

“So be it.”

After a while, the fireman sighed and left the room. Coming out of the room, I saw a maid coming with a kettle.

“Auntie, talk to me for a second.”

“Your son.”

The painter took the maid away from her mother’s room and asked her questions.

“Did your mother drink a lot in the past?”

In an instant, the maid’s eyes widened.

“yes yes? What are you talking about?”

The fireman could tell from her reaction that she was trying to hide it.

This era doesn’t look good on women who drink alcohol.

If the mother and the maid kissed and hid it, people in the house might not know.

“Have you been drinking a lot since your father died?”

The fireman looked over once.

“Hup! Oh no The madam doesn’t even drink alcohol.”

“really?”

“yes.”

The painter warmed up and carefully watched his brother’s movements.

‘It’s definitely a move that can’t be compared to the bandits I’ve fought.’

The movement of the flower pot was so flexible, fast and strong that it was hard to imitate even though I did not use the Naegigong.

If Qigong is used there, movement and destructive power beyond the limit will come out.

gulp.

The fireman swallowed dry saliva.

After going through a near-death experience, I coveted Nagae Qigong even more.

‘I’ll somehow convince my brother or his master to learn qigong.’

The painter stopped warming himself when sweat started to form on the bridge of his nose and his body became warm.

“Hyung, let’s have a fight now.”

“Haha, have you warmed up already?”

“yes.”

“Then give it a shot.”

“yes.”

Dig.

Taking advantage of his brother’s carelessness, the fireman jumped in and stabbed him with a wooden sword.

I already knew that I couldn’t hit my brother with a stab like this, but I thought I’d do my best to improve my skills.

widely.

As expected, the stabbed wooden sword bounced emptyly.

‘This is not the end.’

Shu Shu Shuk.

The fireman retrieved the bounced wooden sword and stabbed him in the eye, throat, and heart in succession.

tat tatak.

In an instant, the older brother’s wooden sword moved lightly and lightly struck off all three stabs.

Shuaang.

Then, drawing a short semicircle, he came in aiming for the fireman’s side.

‘Damn it, it’s so fast!’

The fireman hurriedly blocked his side, but his brother’s wooden sword was faster than that.

puck.

“Kuk!”

“Haha, I thought I was still not feeling well, so I hit you gently.”

“It looks like your waist has been cut in half. What are you talking about?”

The painter touched his throbbing side and frowned.

“If it had been a real battle, it would have been a cut on the side. If you keep doing that, you will die.”

“If you want a real match, I will do it like a real match.”

Dig.

The fireman charged again and swung the wooden sword.

Tap tap tap tap.....

‘Unexpectedly heavy and sharp!’

The flower pot was frightened internally as it bounced off its younger brother’s wooden sword.

He already knew his younger brother’s skills, so he thought of sparring according to them. However, it was not the skill of the younger brother he knew from the first attack.

As if something had been peeled off, the speed of the wooden sword was faster than expected, and it had power.

And more than anything, what I couldn’t believe was the tenacity of not giving up until the end and aiming for gaps.

If you ignore this stickiness, you could be attacked unexpectedly. Because of this, the pot was more nervous than expected while sparring with his younger brother.

Tarak.

He cut off his brother’s wooden sword that was stabbing him in the neck and quickly hit his thigh.

widely.

no i was trying to hit

but got stuck

‘uh! I blocked it!’

In an instant, the flowerpot’s eyes widened.

Up until now, there had been no failures when inserting a wooden sword into the gap created after an attack like this.

But that is blocked.

Wow.

And there was even a counterattack.

‘Eak!’

Flowerpot could not afford to block it with a wooden sword, so for the first time, he leaned back and avoided his brother’s wooden sword.

‘Awesome. I heard you fought bandits the other day... It’s quite realistic.’

It seems that now I need to take sparring a little more seriously.

Hijac.

A smile naturally appeared on his face. I was happy that my younger brother had grown up.

“Haap!”

Ta-tak, ta-tak.....

“Keuuk!”

When the wooden sword of the flowerpot changed, a scream began to erupt from the fireman’s mouth.
