Fabre in Sacheondangga Episode 141
Love 3 illustrations
Geul-Hwang’s explanation is that insects of unknown origin are breeding in Ak-Yang, causing great damage to the people, and because of this, the newly appointed governor and husband of Princess Guandu is in a very difficult situation.
In these ancient times, natural disasters were often attributed to spiritual problems or someone else’s fault, so it seems that the new governor was being witch-hunted because of that.
The story is that I eventually wanted to go and help.
So, you’re saying that the princess who is favored by the emperor will help the martial arts alliance that is unable to go on an expedition due to the imperial family’s restraint?
From the perspective of the Murim Alliance, this was a much-needed proposal, and since it involved the royal family, it seemed they were even sending Geulhwang, one of the three emperors nearby, to ask me for a favor.
“So you’re telling me that I should go to Akyang and find out why there are so many black bugs, or tell you how to deal with them?”
“Yes, that’s it.”
That means, through the introduction of the Murim Alliance, Princess Guando requested that I provide expert advice or perform tasks related to insect problems.
It was a ‘Consulting’ business proposal.
‘You wanted me to do consulting work? Oh… I only showed my ability to do some work. Now you’re calling me Consulting Jane. Did I seem too capable?’
All I did was show the extent of my abilities, and now I’m being offered consulting work.
I’m a little over-confident in my own competence, but this is a very ambiguous situation.
I was currently in a difficult condition for long-term travel.
Considering that the royal family is involved and that Geul-Hwang came to see me in person at the request of the Murim Alliance, it seems like it would be difficult to refuse, but the problem is that our Mo-Ji and So-Ji, who are Eun-Jam, are guys who turn evil if they are separated from me.
So I couldn’t leave them behind, and I had to travel far with them, and Seol-i was about to give birth, so a long-distance trip seemed a bit questionable.
A month and a half had passed in the blink of an eye while I was visiting the Murim Alliance and helping Shintu with his work.
If the mating we saw wasn’t her first, it wouldn’t be strange if Seol-i laid an egg today.
He sighed with a serious expression, holding his chin.
If there is no sharp solution, then I can’t do anything.
“Haa···. But what should I do about this···.”
“How can that be?”
Then, the emperor tilted his head.
He responded with an apologetic expression.
“I would like to help, but there are some babies that are trying to give birth right now… Also, I brought Eunjam here on my shoulder this time, but if they are separated from me, they will spit out poison.
“Not only that, but the children I’m raising now don’t like to be separated from me, so I have to take them all with me, but I can’t take them to places with lots of people…”
I kept it a secret that the silver-bellied Moji and Soji were leaking turbid energy, and when I explained that I wanted to help them but it was difficult, Geul-hwang smiled and responded.
“Don’t worry. If you want to gain Princess Guandu’s trust, it would be a good idea to bring some poisonous substances, so the military sent Zhuge Sega’s ships.”
“Stomach!?”
‘No, you even chartered the boat?’
As I opened my eyes wide at the words that he had even chartered a boat, Geul-hwang’s reply followed.
“Yes, it is the fastest ship in the Yangtze River among the ships owned by the Zhuge family, and it is also the largest ship, so the journey will not be difficult. Also, the ship will not carry anyone other than you.”
A large ship won’t rock much, and the temperature difference in the cabin will be small.
It would have been a relief if only my children and I were to go there on a cattle transport ship.
Because there is no need to worry about bumping into other people.
It seemed like he had prepared quite a bit for the request, but the explanation that followed was enough to surprise me even more.
“And as a way to repay the help you’ve given me, he said he’d give you the ship if you needed it. Of course, he’d also give you the crew. Because of the blood sect issues, you’d have to go back and forth to the Murim Alliance often, so it’d be hard to bring poisonous creatures with you.
If necessary, he said he would repair the ship to your liking.”
“Huh!?”
Personal livestock transporter.
No, a personal poison carrier.
This was truly an offer I couldn’t refuse.
There are seven teenage poisons left.
One of them knew who had it, and Jimjo, the king of all poisons, had already discovered it once.
The only thing left was the whereabouts of the five who had never been seen before, so it would have been good to have a boat to go around and catch them.
The obvious reason why it would be good to have a boat is that when you go out to catch the guys, you’ll need to take other kids with you, and there’s nothing better than a boat to hide the other kids and move around.
Besides, the last guy I’m going to catch is probably Jimjo.
If you want to go to Haenam Island, you definitely need a boat.
‘If I tell my father-in-law, he’ll give me a boat, but what I get with my own ability and what my in-laws give me are two different feelings, right?’
Since it was a good suggestion, I looked at the craftsman first.
I wonder what the craftsman is thinking after leaving the ship.
Since even royalty is involved, it is more of a family problem than my personal problem.
Then a sound is heard.
[Son-in-law, if possible, I would like you to do it. Even though you have married and left home, it is an opportunity to show favor to a member of the royal family.
Even if it doesn’t help us now, it will help us in some way someday.]
The opinion is that it would be good to have a father-in-law who leads the family.
Although it is said that the government is invincible, it felt like it was limited to areas where some effort was needed.
Come to think of it, didn’t you send a potion to Sacheonseongju last time that would make him a confident man?
My mind was already in a state of turmoil on the poison tanker, so I thought to myself.
‘Yes, it’s inevitable that people will get entangled in each other as they live. How can I pretend not to know anything about it, saying that it’s an inviolable duty? Then, why don’t Seol-i and Bing-i go out with Hwa-eun?’
Although I was worried that I might not be able to see the baby being born, it was an offer I couldn’t refuse since it meant having my own personal poison transporter.
First, I decided to check if it was something I could consult on.
I went to get consulting, but I felt bad about getting paid if I didn’t know anything about it.
“I’m thinking about going that way, but do you happen to know what kind of person it is?”
Then, Geulhwang nodded his head in delight.
Geulhwang gave a brief description of the bugs he knew.
“Oh! So you’re going? Well, that’s a relief. Oh, and I heard that Chung is black and has wings.”

That’s roughly it.
But how many black, winged insects are there in the world?
Even if they appear similar to the average person, they may be completely different species.
I had no choice but to call out the list.
To the average person, all insects may be the same.
‘Yes, I am an expert so I should understand.’
“A black, winged insect… Is it perhaps a snake (蝇) fly, a mosquito (蚊子) or a cockroach (蟑螂) or a grasshopper (蚱蜢)?”
Insects that can reproduce in large numbers and cause harm to human life are flies, mosquitoes, cockroaches, or grasshoppers.
When asked if it was one of the four, Geulhwang shook his head.
“They said no. If they were them, they would have said something. They definitely said it was the first time they had seen them.”
“It’s my first time seeing you···.”
‘A black, winged insect… What could be breeding in large numbers?’
Nothing comes to mind right now.
It was at a time when I thought I needed to see the real thing.
A voice coming from outside.
Hwa-eun’s voice was heard from outside.
“Father, excuse me while we talk.”
“What happened?”
“I understand that you have something important to discuss, but it’s a bit urgent. Can I take Little Dragon with me for a moment?”
There was already tea inside, but since Geul-hwang had come, I thought they might bring in some extra refreshments, but Hwa-eun was looking for me outside.
Hwa-eun was asking in a voice that seemed to be suppressing some urgency.
‘me?’
The craftsman looked at me at Hwa-eun’s question.
I heard that the King of Geul was looking for it, but it was something that required me to come to him despite my rudeness.
I decided to first ask for the understanding of the craftsman and the emperor and then find out why they were looking for me.
“I’ll go check and see what’s going on.”
“Yeah, I guess so.”
“Yes, son-in-law.”
It was the moment when I asked for their understanding and opened the door to the family court.
In front of the door was Hwa-eun, looking at me with a pensive expression, chewing her nails.
For some reason, my hands were shaking and even though I was a martial artist and didn’t sweat much, I saw a forehead soaked with cold sweat.
And as soon as Hwa-eun opened her mouth, all the emotions she had been suppressing burst out.
“Cow, cow! Hurry up! Hurry up!”
Hwa-eun grabs my hand without thinking, as if something is urgent.
“Hwa-eun, calm down and speak. I’m talking inside, so I need permission to go out.”
I said I would go check what was going on for a bit, so I had to get permission to leave.
As I said that and stopped in my tracks, Hwa-eun looked back at me with a blank expression.
And then he screamed loudly.
“I’m giving birth!”
“You’re giving birth?”
Hwa-eun suddenly shouts that she is giving birth.
I couldn’t help but open my eyes wide at the explanation that followed.
“Seo, Seol-i, after So-ryong went to Gajujeon earlier, he clung to Bing-ok and floated, and didn’t fall off. At first, I thought he was eating. But I had a strange feeling, so I kept watching him…
“My sister Seol came to visit, and she came to check on Seol-i… Oh, my sister looked at Seol-i and said that she thought it was strange and asked if she was laying eggs!”
Although Seol is not an expert in this field, she is a person who is serious about animals.
Moreover, she said that she had received many puppies and wolf cubs since she was young, so if her sister had seen such things, there is a high probability that what she said is true.
He grabbed Hwa-eun’s hand, who was trembling with nervousness as it was her first time giving birth, and shouted.
It wasn’t important because the eggs were coming out now, whether permission or not.
“Let’s go!”
As soon as they arrived at Hwa-eun’s residence after running so fast, Seol was frozen on the table, hugging Bing-ok tightly.
Bingyi, who was surprised by Seol-i’s appearance, was circling around the table frantically and licking Seol-i’s face.
“Dragon! Come quickly! It looks like you’re definitely trying to give birth to something!”
Seol’s sister jumped up from her seat as Hwa-eun and I ran into the room.
As I approached the table, Bingyi ran up to me and grabbed my hand.
-Kukku! Kukkuu!
Since I had already saved Seol-i once, I think I could somehow fix her.
“Okay, Bing, step back for a moment.”
I made Bingyi step down, but I also became nervous at the sight of Seol-i.
I have received eggs countless times in my past life, but it has only been about an hour since I went to Gajujeon and talked to him.
That means it’s been like this for two hours.
It may take a long time for the eggs to be laid, but since it is the first time, there may be a problem called egg binding or egg blockage.
This is a common disease in egg-laying birds, turtles, lizards, snakes, and other reptiles. It occurs when eggs are produced too large inside the body or when the eggs are stuck inside the body due to acidity and cannot escape.
If it was egg binding, it would be a big problem.
If eggs are not laid, uric acid and toxins can flow back and destroy organs, which can lead to death.
‘Please, not just egg binding.’
“It’s okay, Seol-ah. It’s Daddy. Daddy will take a look.”
-Ugh.
If you’re giving birth, you shouldn’t touch it, but if you’re egg binding, you’re in big trouble.
It was the moment when I carefully lifted my tail to examine the guy.
-Gulp.
Water flowing down from near Seol-i’s tail.
“water?”
Although a small amount of fluid is secreted when laying eggs, it is still a lot for an egg-laying creature to shed.
When you think about it, “Is that what a spirit is?”
The slit in Seol-i’s mouth opened and something inside flowed out.
I opened my eyes wide and checked, and what flowed out was not the expected egg, but a chick.
“nestling!?”
“It’s not an egg, it’s a baby bird!”
“You’re so cute!”
What Seol-i laid was not an egg.
A small lizard that looks exactly like a snowball covered in a transparent film.
I thought Seol-i and Bing-i would lay eggs, but Seol-i gave birth to babies instead of eggs, like some lizards that give birth to young.
“Che, Cheon! Cheon, Hwaeun!”
“Hey, over here!”
It was amazing that she had given birth to a baby, but the baby was still wrapped in a sac.
Let’s quickly remove the membrane and wipe the nose with the cloth we received from Hwa-eun. The baby was born and let out its brave first cry.
-Okay.
It was a crazy, cute cry that was so brave that it made the three people listening dizzy.
