Episode 397
‘Even if you just throw one fish that washed up on the beach into the sea, another one will wash up tomorrow. But it’s a lifesaver for the fish. Maybe we’ll see it next winter.’
-I may have just lived one more day. No, it may not even take a few days before it gets eaten by a predator.
That was also correct.
Among the patients Jin Cheon-hee saved, there were warriors who died after being caught up in a silver fire before they could survive more than a week.
I clearly told him that even after discharge from the hospital, he should spend a year purifying himself within his clan.
In the end, Muin didn’t listen.
This was because the opponent insulted his monk and killed his priest.
The patient died a week after leaving the hospital, but treatment took more than two months.
I had major surgery several times.
I couldn’t guarantee success, and even if I succeeded, I couldn’t be confident that my body’s functions would be intact.
The day the patient’s treatment was successful and the patient was discharged.
We had a small party with the members of the National Assembly.
Jin Cheon-hee made the oil tteokbokki that she ate on Earth. Everyone enjoyed it.
And a week later, the patient died and a letter came.
Members of the National Assembly were unable to eat oil tteokbokki again.
It had to be a long time before I could eat it again.
‘it’s okay. That’s also a possibility.’
-What can a fish that will soon die do?
‘I don’t know that. The fish will decide.’
-It will become foam and disperse and disappear. The body will be eaten by other fish. You could die from being swept away by the cold ocean currents in winter.
Jin Cheon-hee did not deny those words.
‘That would also be one of the possibilities.’
Like migratory birds, fish also move along ocean currents, and in the process, just as weak migratory birds die, weak fish also die.
Then, feeling the excruciating pain again, he added another word.
‘But I might do something else. Do you know? Will that fish discover writing and paint murals in underwater caves?’
-You lost your mind.
‘Hahaha, that’s what they say. There is no difference even if you replace it with a human. I know that saving people is what connects the present and the future. Someday, someone and someone’s descendants may be able to see the winter that I cannot reach.’
Since I died young in my previous life, even though I only lived for less than a hundred years, there are times when I wonder if my current life will be much different.
All that Jin Cheon-hee could leave behind was someone who would look after her next winter.
Eungryong was speechless for a moment at Jin Cheonhee’s words.
-You won’t see it.
‘it’s okay. Still, when that winter ends, spring will come. Someone will tell you how beautiful spring is. And it’s cool. That you will overcome next winter and make it to spring instead of me. That’s why there’s an uproar from above because you’re disrupting the spirit of heaven.’
Jin Cheon-hee giggled like a bad boy.
‘What I’m doing is not meaningless.’
-It seemed like you were happy to hear that the spirit of heaven was distorted.
‘If you think about it the other way around, it means that it’s influencing something. It means that this work was not in vain. Um…’
My limbs hurt more.
It was not easy to breathe.
Although he wanted to sink further into the dream, Jin Cheon-hee’s brain continued to send the owner to the world of cognition just by talking with Eung-ryong.
Most of life is suffering.
‘We have to endure a lot of pain just to eat, sleep, and sleep.’
Even if Jin Cheon-hee saved his life, in the end, the patient would worry about tomorrow’s food, worry about the salvation of the sand, and throw his life away again.
Kang-ho’s miserable memories will cause insomnia.
You may continue to have sleepless nights due to memories of your dead sister-in-law or sister-in-law.
If it was life, that was fine.
If that person feels the sweet taste of winter sweet potatoes even in the pain that comes from eating, sleeping, and coughing.
The occasional snack and the warmth of the spring sun.
A gift for myself that I put a lot of thought into.
Don’t humans live only with that moment of perfection?
Humans change the world just by living within it.
Even though the winter is long and painful, spring must come after it.
-I’m curious. What choice will you make when the time comes?
‘If you’re still alive by then.’
-I look forward to it.
Eungryong’s voice fades away.
It was a moment of deep relief that I could now sink into the world of dreams again.
I ended up hearing something I didn’t want to hear.
– By the way, your teacher is very angry this time, so you better be prepared.
‘Eh? What does that mean…?’
The moment I calculate the distance between Yunnan and Baeklinui Pavilion and think of this damn road that is extremely rough.
Jin Cheon-hee opened her eyes.
“Huh?”
Damn I completely broke it.
* * *
This time, my neck moved.
Even though his entire body was in a plaster cast.
“No, what’s going on! “Who put all the casts on here?”
At the sound of Jin Cheonhee’s voice, someone jumped up from under the bed.
“oh! brother. You woke up~! “You’ve been sleeping for twenty days~?”
Twenty days?
Suddenly, I looked out the window and realized that the seasons had changed.
Perhaps because it is Yunnan, the vegetation is fresh.
“Uh… did I sleep that long?”
“huh. “My body fought off a poison or something… but they said it wouldn’t be life-threatening.”
Jin Cheon-hee ended up asking a question she didn’t want to hear, but had to ask.
“Who who?”
“Odeokmunju…”
Just as Jin Tianxi was about to reassure herself, Sima Xuan spoke.
“…and my brother, Master.”
Damn it.
“No, how far is it from there to here? How did you get here?”
“I’m curious too. But it came. “Roughly speaking, if you don’t mount a horse and run lightly as soon as you receive the letter, you may be able to do it.”
“No, from there to here, it’s the end. How can I run when I’m not Hyeon-gyeong, whose inner strength is infinite? “No, even if you run, there should be time for people to eat and sleep.”
“Don’t ask me that, you should ask Baek Lin-ui-seon directly.”
Just thinking about it already makes me shiver.
“Well, anyway, Master is here, right?”
“huh. I heard they made my brother do that by saying they were using special treatments along with plasters. Oh right. As an antidote, I used the poison of the hexagonal viper. “He came because his brother collapsed.”
“It looks like the six-pointed poisonous snake is okay…”
“No… I don’t know what happened to him, but he kept waking up and going back to sleep like a sick chicken~ According to Ohdogmunju, it looks like he took some strong medicine. But thanks to Baekrin’s goodness, I was able to recover.”
I feel sorry for the human.
Perhaps the reason why the Hexagonal Spirit Venerable came was because of Eungryong, who conveyed his voice to Jin Cheonhee.
A strange sixth sense came over me.
Jin Cheonhee muttered softly.
“okay. In Eungryong’s opinion, it’s up to the human bastards to go after them or not. Looks like the kid got poached. Yes, humans were wrong. “What is your crime?”
Jin Cheon-hee decided to care for not only her fur friend, but also her snake friend.
He stared blankly at the ceiling.
“Seeing as the internal force is barely moving, I can see that the teacher has carefully checked the point.”
“okay. I can’t release it either, hyung~ I won’t release it~”
“No, that’s it…”
“It’s a good thing. No matter how half-hearted he was, he was able to beat a Hyeon-kyung-level monster by sacrificing his own body to win? As a cancer survivor, this is heartbreaking. But you didn’t fight because of your pride as a warrior, right~?”
That was correct.
Jin Cheonhee sighed. Sima Hyeon continued.
“Brother, you have to reflect~”
“No, you will reflect, but no matter what, the blood in your veins and the full body cast are really…”
At that time, the door swung open and a familiar voice was heard.
“The patient must absolutely rest, Hee-ya.”
“Master…”
I’m already breaking into a cold sweat. Even though I can’t feel anything from the neck down, I can still feel my skin trembling.
Is this the phantom pain I only heard about?
“Teacher, this is because of the Demonic Cult. The Buddha disciple is innocent! Demonic religion is bad!”
First of all, Jin Cheon-hee made it clear that all of this was a trick of the Demonic Cult, that she was innocent, and that she had just unintentionally gotten caught up in something bad.
Master was speechless for a while as he looked at Jin Cheonhee.
“….”
I thought you would chew on it with your mouth as I told you that I was making new modifications as usual.
The master just looked at his disciple.
“Master?”
“Just shut up for a moment. “Because you are enjoying the fact that you are alive.”
“….”
Zhugelin looked at his pitiful disciple like that.
“Luckily, I didn’t need any stitches this time. “When we arrived, the doctors had already finished treating the patient.”
“I raised them all well…”
“Hee, shut up.”
“…Yes…”
Zhuge Lin informed Sima Xuan that a letter had arrived from Jinhyeobang, and Sima Xuan immediately went outside to receive the letter.
There were only two people and silence left in the room.
The Master’s huge body approached the disciple like a mountain.
He looked at his disciple’s blinking eyes for a moment, then at his now breathing nose and cheeks that were still pale but had regained their color.
He placed his index and middle fingers on the disciple’s neck, took his pulse, and said this.
“I’m wondering whether your survival rate would be higher if you had intact limbs or if you were hemiplegic.”
“Ugh, Master, no way.”
“Stop talking bullshit and shut up….”
“….”
You were really angry.
But at the same time, he seemed extremely relieved that his disciple had finally woken up.
Still, the reason I’m so angry is probably because of that Bulcho disciple who, despite all the arrangements, couldn’t hold back and attacked me.
“It’s a talent to drag so many warriors and get them hurt like this. I didn’t know. “I didn’t know that our student would have a talent for something like this.”
“….”
I want to rebut something.
I’d like to say that’s not the case.
But Master ordered her to shut up, and Jin Cheon-hee just cried like a puppy caught in the rain.
Even though I think that the student’s face is very cute, my anger rises when I remember the fact that the puppy stuck his entire body into the imperfect master of Hyeon-gyeong.
“Why didn’t you just run away when the magician started running wild?”
“If that were the case, there would have been severe casualties.”
“Shut up.”
“….”
“Even if it means hundreds of thousands of lives, not thousands, when will you realize that just your life is not worth it to me? “This foolish, foolish disciple.”
A sigh came from deep in my solar plexus.
Jin Cheon-hee repeated the words she was sorry hundreds of times in her mind.
Finally, Master spoke.
“I’ll just ask you one thing.”
“What happened to the misreading?”
“It’s a misreading. “There are no more clans like that, Hee-ya.”
“yes?”
Jin Cheonhee’s eyes widened.
Zegalin looked into his disciple’s eyes and opened his mouth.
“Now, keep thinking with that little head. “You probably have a lot of time to worry since you can’t get up, walk, eat, or urinate on your own.”
“Master…?”
“It’s a punishment.”
Tak –
Master said that and closed the door.
‘Could it be that he passed away during the Hyeolrin Gwangsal while I was unconscious…?’
But no one answers.
All that Jin Cheon-hee can see is the ceiling and the sound of unknown mountain birds and insects outside the window.
In the end, I had no choice but to keep worrying about the lack of answers in the world’s smallest prison.
That was a punishment designed by Zhuge Lin exclusively for Jin Tianxi.
It was a pretty vicious trap.
