Chapter 190:
Chapter 63
Kanghyok gave Sungryong only five days until he was ready for surgery.
‘He had even anemia.’
When Kanghyok reversed his eyelid, it was pale, as expected.
Obviously he bled a lot because of chronic hemorrhoids.
So, Kanghyok couldn’t delay treating it any more.
“Dolsok, are the guys ready?”
“Yes. By the way, are you really going to have them take this?”
Dolsok was pointing at the herbal decoction Kanghyok was holding.
Judging by the color and sll, it was commonly found in any herbal dicine shop.
But it was uncommon, of course.
“I need to have them take this. It’s safer than you think.”
“In fact, wasn’t the sa dicine that killed dogs while testing them?”
As Dolsok said, this herbal decoction was far from common decoction.
It was kind of poison decoction containing a mix of toads’ poison and choh, poison herb.
Makbong and Yon already knew the terrible effects of that decoction.
“That’s why I’m asking you to think twice, master.”
Not only Makbong but also Yoni and Yoju were pretty nervous.
Only Kanghyok was calm.
“Hey, I’m going to use half the toxic dosage that I used for dogs. So, don’t worry.”
Then Kanghyok pointed at the bandits who followed him to this place.
They were busy carrying rice straws at the mont.
They were bandits back then, but they beca loyal servants working hard.
In particular, they were pretty loyal to Dolsok’s order.
Reluctantly Dolsok gestured toward them to co over.
As they were well trained, they quickly ca running to Dolsok at his order.
“Yes, we’re all here,” said Dorikke, the leader of the bandit, wet with sweat as he was so busy carrying rice straw from early morning.
And behind his back were lined up other mbers of the bandit.
“Oh, good job. Thanks, everybody!”
“You’re welco. We are just grateful to you for accepting us.”
“Good. Stop your work today and take so dicine.”
“dicine?” asked Dorikke with his eyes open wide.
As he heard that Kanghyok was a famous doctor, Dorikke even thought that the dicine he would take would be very effective.
“Yes, dicine.”
“ alone taking it?”
“Nope. Everyone in your group.”
Kanghyok then pointed at five bowls of herbal decoction.
Each bowl contained a different dosage. The far right bowl had the most dosage while the far left one had the least.
“Thank you.”
They just kept lowering their heads without knowing what kind of dicine it was.
Makbogn and Yoni turned back, as if they didn’t want to see their last mont.
But Kanghyok was as calm as ever without changing his face at all.
He first took the guy who had wielded a club.
“Drink this and then lie on your back.”
“Lying here?”
“Yes, that way the dicine will be more effective.”
In fact, Kanghyok didn’t want him to lose consciousness right after taking the dicine.
Each of the bandits took dicine assigned to them and then lied on their back one by one.
Lastly, Dorikke was left.
“Hey, take this.”
“It looks strong, sir.”
In terms of fragrance and color, it was clearly different from other decoction.
“Dorikke, you’re the captain of this bandit group, right?”
“Thanks.”
Closing his eyes, Dorikke gulped it down.
“Tastes good!” he forgot to utter an exclamation.
After he was done, Dolsok, Yoni, Makbong and Yoju, standing in the distance, approached Kanghyok.
It was Dolsok who opened his mouth first.
“Were they all done with?”
“What the heck are you talking about? They are just asleep now.”
Shaking his head, Kanghyok went to a guy on the left.
“Hmmm... he’s sleeping well.”
“Yes, master. He’s even snoring.”
As if he felt sothing strange, Makbong put his hand on the guy’s nose and mouth.
Clearly the guy was letting out warm breath, suggesting that he was alive.
“Dolsok?”
“Yes, master.”
“Squeeze his calf with this tweezer.”
“You want to wake him up right now? He just fell asleep.”
Dolsok looked at Kanghyok with an unbelievable look.
“Are you making fun of ? Yoni, give him a lesson.”
Yoni instantly imdiately gave him a kick on his back.
“Oops...” moaned Dolsok, feeling a sharp pain.
Dolsok was now more than obedient without talking back.
“Squeeze him now”
“Yes, yes.”
In a docile manner Dolsok rolled up the guy’s pants
As the guy fell fast asleep, he didn’t show any sign of waking up when Dolsok shook him wildly.
“Right now?”
“Yes, now.”
Dolsok examined the tweezers Kanghyok gave him.
Then Dolsok squeezed his calf with the tweezers sharply.
“Ouch!”
The guy, who was fast asleep, suddenly woke up.
Yoju was drawing all this scene in great detail, writing down Kanghyok’s comnts.
“Humm...Looks like the dosage was too small for this guy. Next.”
“Huh? Why am I here?” asked the guy.
It seed that he didn’t rember he fell asleep after taking the dicine.
This was an unexpected effect, with which Kanghyok was very satisfied.
“Great. Just write it down that this dicine had the effect of anterograde amnesia.”
“What does it an?” asked Yoju.
Yoju never hesitated to ask whenever she had doubts.
“To put it simply, you don’t have any mory after taking dicine.”
“Aha~”
When Yoju made a special note like that, Makbong expressed big interest.
“No mory?”
“Yea, no mory after taking dicine. Why are you asking?”
“Well, because it’s amazing,” said Makbong, with a sinister smile.
“Hey, you can tempt won well without this, right?”
“Pardon, sir? I am not doing anything suspicious, master.”
“I can read it on your forehead. Hahaha.”
“No, sir....”
Then Kanghyok pushed aside Makbong and checked another guy.
He was fast asleep and breathing well.
Given that saliva was coming out of his mouth, he was more spaced out than the first guy.
“Dolsok, squeeze him now.”
“Yes, master.”
He squeezed his calf with the tweezers sharply, and the guy woke up with a scream.
Given that he didn’t get up imdiately like the first guy, he seed to be drunk with sleep.
“Good. This dicine is more effective than the first one.”
Yoju nodded her head shortly while drawing Kanghyok’s every move.
The fourth guy was a bit different from the previous guys.
“Master, he wouldn’t wake up.”
“Really?”
That was a good sign.
Kanghyok walked up to him and took off his jacket.
Then he pressed on the heavage of the guy strongly with his fists.
At the sa ti the guy gave a moan.
“Uhmmm..”
As he didn’t wake up right away, the effect of the dicine was very good.
But he felt sowhat strange.
“What the heck is this guy doing?”
Tilting her head to one side, Yoni ca over and said, “Yeah, he is sowhat weird, master.”
“Really?”
“He made a smile when he was beaten as a rule.”
“Does he enjoy being beaten?”
Kanghyok wanted to test how sensitive this guy would feel to the intensity of pain.
“Dang it. Let’s wake him up.”
“How?”
There were three ways to wake the patients up from anesthesia.
First, doctors could use dicine working against anesthetic.
‘This is rejected as I don’t have one.’
Second, doctors could wait until the patient could wake up.
“This is also rejected.’
Although this was a safe thod, the waiting ti might be too long.
Third, doctors could wake up the patients by applying strong stimulation.
Only the did Kanghyok nod his head.
“Hit him in the spot that can cause him real pain.”
“Yes, master.”
Yoni inserted her finger into his ears and then violently picked them.
“Uhuuuk!”
As if he felt extre pain, the guy got up imdiately, or tried to raise himself.
But he was staggering as his legs were wobbly.
“Oh, overdosage could cause the effect of muscle relaxant.”
“What does it an?”
“Muscles are wobbly.”
“I see.”
Nodding her head, she made a special note on it.
“If you use it too much, it could kill the patient.”
“Why?”
“Well, even breathing is possible with heart muscle, so if the muscle is relaxed too much, the patient could not breathe.”
“I see. I think I’m learning lots of stuff from you, master.”
Kanghyok felt she was pretty on an occasion like this.
He gave a hearty laugh before his brain registered it.
“Now, let’s take a look at the last guy, Dorikke.”
Dorikke stretched out on the floor completely.
He looked exactly like the patients that Kanghyok used to see in the operating room back in modern Korea.
‘His breathing is so deep.’
Given that his belly is moving up or down, he was breathing.
If he could react to any pain, the dosage he took could be the maximum.
“Dolsok?”
“Yes, master. He won’t wake up.”
Next it was ti for Kanghyok to press on his heavage hard.
Dorikke showed no sign of waking up despite Kanghyok’s hard pressing with fists.
Though he gave a moan sotis, he was still fast asleep.
‘Good. This dosage is appropriate.’
Kanghyok compared Sungryong’s build with Dorikke’s.
At a glance Sungryong’s build was a bit smaller than his.
‘Okay, let use the dosage for the fourth guy.’
Anyway, Kanghyok was going to use a local anesthesia.
“Great. Just inform Lord Sungryong that I’m ready for the surgery.”
“Yes, master.”
