I Reincarnated as a Legendary Surgeon Chapter 278

Chapter 278. Even if the world perishes tomorrow, I will plant an apple tree. (1) The

fireman, who arrived at the orphanage that Pyeonseon and Sara called an orphanage, widened his eyes when he saw adults and children gathered together doing various things.

Cutting down trees to make materials for houses, beating mud to build earthen walls, farming rice fields and fields, making food, or working bellows at blacksmiths.

There were so who learned martial arts and so who learned to write, but there were not many such children, and most of them were learning the skills necessary for living in the future.

“I thought it was just providing a place to live and giving food… but this is beyond my imagination.”

“I think it will be difficult to prepare for the future if I just make a living now. So I am teaching many things.”

“At this level, you can call it a general school instead of an orphanage.”

“Originally, it wasn’t ant to be this big, but the patients who ca to see and Ra treat orphans and teach basic dical skills joined them…” The

painter listened to Pyeonseon’s explanation and realized what she and Sara were doing. I thought it was a big and important thing.

‘While I was swayed by worldly affairs, your wife was working on sothing that would change the world!’

“oh! Master.”

At that ti, Sarah, who was treating the children and patients, saw the fireman and the pyeonseon coming and hurriedly bowed her head and welcod them.

“I saw you yesterday, so what kind of greeting do you greet so warmly?”

“It was nice to et you yesterday and it’s nice to see you today too.”

“My son.”

“Nanggun is looking after you.”

Just as a painter carries his daughter in his arms all day long, misinformation seed to be the sa.

“It’s been a while since my husband ca, so why don’t you stay with ?”

“I want to, but since my wife isn’t here, I have to be here too.”

“Do you think it will go well without you?”

“There are more things to care about than looks.”

“is it. By the way, when did the older brothers co and go?”

“It was around this ti last year, so I ca here about a year ago.”

“hmm! You must have heard of this place before coming to .”

“Oh, Master. Please look at this child.”

While talking, Sara brought the child she was examining a mont ago.

“why? Where are you sick?”

The painter saw the skinny child. On the surface, it was a typical symptom of malnutrition. But there was no way Sara could have simply spoken to herself about malnutrition.

“I often have diarrhea and sotis my stomach hurts, but even though I decocted a decoction of about 1 dalpo and paid attention to food, it hasn’t improved.”

The fireman looked through the other children besides the one Sarah had brought with him.

There were many children in a similar condition.

“Where was the pain in your stomach?”

“There was no part of the pain response. I just said it hurts a little bit overall.”

“okay? What did you use for the tangjae?”

“I used white peony, persimmon, and ginger paste.”

The fireman’s face beca a little serious.

“It’s like this even though I wrote it over and over again?”

“yes. als were also nutritious. But it doesn’t get any better.”

“What about the children in the school over there? Were they healthy from the start?”

“no. Those children were similar to these children at first, but they beca healthy after taking decoctions and nutritious als for about 15 days.”

“It’s the sa prescription for the sa symptoms, but the improvent is so different… Let’s start with a pulse first.”

After a while, the painter, who took the child’s pulse and pressed the stomach here and there, tilted his head as if he didn’t understand sothing.

Even if he had a heart attack, it wasn’t that sothing was wrong, it was just a typical symptom of malnutrition.

‘Is there another cause I can’t find?’

She even used her clairvoyance to examine the child’s stomach, but could not find any other cause except that the function of all organs was reduced due to malnutrition.

“Didn’t you say that you paid good attention to Dalpo?”

“Your master.”

“That should be enough for to gain weight… Hmm?”

As the painter continued to struggle without giving an answer right away, Pyeonseon and Sarah were very surprised inside.

I had never seen a fireman so distressed after a heart attack.

He imdiately judged and treated any disease, but now it was clear that he had run into difficulties.

The painter turned his head and glanced over at the other skinny children.

In fact, I saw children like that all too often on the battlefield. It was difficult to pay attention to, and there was no ti to write, so I thought it was just a simple malnutrition, but if it is in this state even though I was well fed, it must be seen that there is another cause of the disease.

‘It’s strange. It’s not enteritis, it’s not indigestion… There’s no particular pain. Where did all the food I ate go?

After thinking about it for a long ti, I suddenly rembered that the present is very similar to the ti when I went to a dical volunteer service in a remote village in Africa in the past.

‘ah! Maybe a parasite?’

It was a world where children had nothing to eat due to war and famine, so they ate not only the leaves but also the skin. If fish, small worms, snakes, or frogs were well-roasted or well-boiled, but otherwise undercooked or eaten raw, there was a very high probability of developing parasites in the stomach.

“Does your stomach often feel pressured by sothing?”

The child, who had been taken aback by the fireman’s question, nodded.

“yes.”

“Are you dizzy, have a headache, are hungry, but have no taste for food, and sotis your hands and feet tremble?”

“yes.”

“You don’t have a fever?”

“yes.”

The painter was convinced that it was a parasite.

Even the other children who were similarly skinny had been checked for pulse and history.

‘It’s a parasite after all! It’s a parasite, so I couldn’t find it even with clairvoyance.’

Although clairvoyance is a great ability, it is not omnipotent.

Symptoms such as bleeding or enlargent or shrinkage of fractured organs can be found imdiately, but it is similar to how X-rays cannot see through long stretches like one or two strands of cotton wool in the intestines.

The painter found the cause of the disease, but could not give a prescription right away.

In the future, parasites are just a disease that can be easily treated with one or two repellents, but in this era, most of them were folk redies with uncertain results.

Sarah and Pyeonseon only stared at the painter’s mouth when the fireman did not prescribe the decoction even after he finished all the pulses.

“This disease is… Whoa~. It is a disease caused by parasitic worms in the stomach, so I have yet to find a cure for it.”

“yes! Worms in your stomach? Is that a fatal disease?”

“They do not die, but the parasitic worm eats up the nutrients from the food they eat before the body can absorb them, so they suffer from chronic malnutrition.”

“If you continue to be undernourished… you could end up dying.”

“If they don’t eat, they will die sooner than other children.”

“I’ve seen worms in spoiled fish and old at…but worms in the stomachs of living people!”

“It is not a fatal disease. So, for the ti being, I will try to find a cure while feeding him nutritious food.”

“All right.”

Hwabu left the orphanage and went to Janggihwa Pyeonwon.

After hearing from the fireman that there are many children with parasites in their stomachs, the two n’s expressions beca serious as if they were facing a difficult problem.

“Even in ancient literature, the disease with parasitic insects in the stomach was called internal insect disease, but it is not a fatal disease, so no special treatnt has been developed yet.”

“Hehe, more than 30 children have infestation…. If 30% of the children in the orphanage have infestation, the orphans in the streets must be even worse.”

“Perhaps. Isn’t Congressman Jang good at this kind of therapy? Do you know of any dicines that are effective against insect repellent?”

“There are ways to make them drink water made with ashes, and I tried giving them laxatives, but it doesn’t seem to have much effect.”

“Is it the sa for the imperial palace?”

As the painter looked at Pyeon-won, Pyeon-won also shook his head.

“Sturdy adults can use poison from mushrooms, but those little kids won’t be able to stand it. As Congressman Hwa knows, the imperial family and high-ranking officials do not suffer from malnutrition no matter how much they suffer from insect repellent. Furthermore, since insect resistance is not a life-threatening disease, it is not considered a serious disease.”

That’s what it says.

Insomnia is not a frightening disease for the wealthy. But what about these kids? It can be said to be a terrible disease that can lead to death.

The fireman smiled bitterly at Pyeonwon’s words.

“Whoa! We can’t keep feeding them nutritious porridge, so we’ll have to find a way.”

If you make an insect repellent, not only the orphans in the orphanage but also the orphans in the streets will benefit.

“We will also look for a cure whenever we have ti.”

“yes. Please let know if you find a cure that works.”

“Okay.”

After seeing the two of them, the painter ordered his servants to bring back so monkeys and dogs.

Feeding dogs and monkeys fish or at with parasites was not too difficult.

‘First of all, I’ll have to wait until the parasites that have entered the stomachs of animals reproduce to so extent.’

The painter was thinking of finding an effective dicine by first using known folk redies. For this reason, water was poured into charcoal to extract lye, or poisonous mushrooms were refined to weaken the toxicity.

ow ow…..

After a few days, the monkeys and dogs who had eaten the parasite-laden at began to complain or whine quite a bit as if they felt sothing wrong with their bodies.

The painter felt sorry for the animals.

‘I won’t let your sacrifices be in vain.’

sniff

During a few days of experintation, a large dog jumped over the cage and ran outside.

The monkey was put in an iron cage that was blocked on all sides, but the dogs did not have enough iron cages, so they only set up a slightly high fence, but they got over it.

The fireman put down the poisonous mushroom he was grooming and was about to run towards the dog, but hesitated.

If soone ate this poisonous mushroom without knowing it was poisonous, it could cause serious trouble.

The number of children learning from the servants increased, so children used to co here as well.

The fireman hurriedly put the mushroom aside so that no one else could touch it, and then the dog chased it.

Fortunately, the dog didn’t go far and was actively grazing in the backyard.

“There is a saying that dogs eat grass, but actually seeing it this way is a bit absurd.”

Even when the fireman approached, the dog did not think of running away and continued grazing.

“Are you hungry and eating grass? Well, dogs are also omnivores, so that might be the case, but… If they’re going to eat, they’ll eat softer grasses.”

It was foxtail that the dog was frantically eating.

The fireman waited for the dog to stop grazing, thinking about it.

Kkeek Kkeek…..

But the dog, which had been grazing for a while, suddenly started to vomit.

“I knew that. Dogs have to eat at, but since they eat grass, they vomit like that… Huh?”

The fireman’s eyes, which had stepped back and watched the dog vomit, widened at the sight of the vomit.
