Reverse Interview 3
It was a bit surprising that Mr. Cheolsan knew medicine, so I followed the village chief to his house and asked the Tang family’s warrior.
From what I’ve heard while living together, the Sacheon Dang family is a family in Sacheon that practices martial arts.
But his specialty was unusual. He specialized in poison?
So, it was said that it was a family that studied and practiced methods of killing people with poison.
It feels like some kind of legendary assassination clan or something?
So my interview scores were dropping quite a bit.
If Tangga was also good at medicine, it seemed like he could learn medicine instead of using horrible poison to kill people.
Even if it’s non-mainstream, you can still ride the tech in that direction.
Isn’t the original tech in the rider’s mind?
‘The medical specialist of Sacheondangga. Who is the best?’
[But is the medical technique real?]
So, when he looked at the warrior of the Tang family and made a face asking if it was true, the warrior answered with a smile.
He answered my long-awaited question with enthusiasm and sincerity, asking if I really wanted to join the Sacheondangga.
“Since Tangga’s martial arts are about dealing with poison, they are also proficient in medicine. Medicine and poison have something in common. And martial arts begin with knowing the body, so they know a certain amount of medical skills.
If you want to harm someone else’s body, you have to know the body well.
“Well, our Sacheondang family needs to know how poison reacts to the human body, so we catch bad guys and inject them ourselves. So naturally, we are more knowledgeable about medicine than other families.”
“Aha… I, I see?”
The warriors were even using formal language with me because they wanted to somehow drag me into the Sacheondangga.
But after hearing his explanation, the image of the Sacheondang family in my head was that of a crazy family that researches the human body and even experiments on it in order to kill people.
It was a family of psychopaths who even used poison to commit mass murder.
‘Studying the body in order to kill people well… Reverse interview score -50 points. Crazy human experiment reverse interview score -100 points. A family of complete psychopaths. However, public support +3 points.’
In the end, except for the flying light aircraft and public support, the interview scores for Sacheondangga were only being reduced.
That was when I was doing an interview evaluation of Sacheondangga in my head.
When the old man Cheolsan arrived at the village chief’s house, he put his hand on the child’s chest and seemed to be doing something, and then the child’s rapidly beating heart calmed down and the child let out a deep breath.
-phew···.
Mr. Cheolsan used some method to bring the child back to life.
The old man wiped his forehead and spoke to the village chief.
“First, I put my strength into my body and stopped my breathing.”
“Oh, thank you! Oh… Please spare my only remaining granddaughter.”
But then he looked at the village chief’s granddaughter for a long time, and made a face that seemed to show that he didn’t understand something.
“But that’s strange. Uncoordinated pulse.”
“What, what is that?”
‘If it’s arrhythmia, is it arrhythmia? Is it heart disease?’
Although I did not study medicine, the fact that I specialized in poisons and poisonous insects in my past life means that I have some knowledge of poisons and medicine.
That’s why I felt a little bit of something from Mr. Cheolsan’s explanation.
“The salt bucket is not beating properly. Hasn’t the child been like this since birth?”
‘Oh, so you’re asking if it’s heart disease.’
“Of course. It’s been half a year already, and people suddenly start getting sick and end up like this. We call it a disease. That’s why I told you to go back at the village entrance earlier.”
I wondered why the relatively kind-hearted women treated us so coldly, and it seemed to be because of the village’s troubles. After hearing his explanation, the old man, Cheolsan, nodded and answered.
“It doesn’t seem like a contagious disease, so I think it’ll be fine. But if we’re going to save the child, we need to look after other people too. Could you gather together people who have the same strange disease?”
“Okay!”
As the old man said, I’m a little relieved because among the infectious diseases I know of, there is no infectious disease that causes heart damage.
At the village chief’s direction, sick people gathered one by one in front of the village chief’s house, and the old man began to take a considerable amount of time to check the patients’ pulses.
But Mr. Cheolsan, who examined all the patients and wrote down their symptoms on paper, shook his head with an expression that seemed to show that he did not understand something.
“There is lethargy, eye swelling, palpitations, and mild fever, but the symptoms are not all the same. It is strange that those with severe symptoms all seem to have problems with the sciatica.”
Some people feel lethargic and have a fever, others have arrhythmia and swollen eyes, and those with severe symptoms all have heart problems.
At those words, the village chief asked with a fearful expression.
“Mom, can’t you fix it!?”
“First, I’ll write down some good medicine for the sore throat. Could you please gather it quickly? I’ll try using the medicine.”
But, as expected of someone who studied medicine, the old man tried to treat the patient while avoiding the core answer.
Since they didn’t know the cause, they felt like they were going to treat the symptoms, but the village chief thought that there was hope, so he called the villagers together and ran out to find some herbs.
“Everyone gather around! The doctor said to get some medicine!”
***
The reason why I couldn’t just ignore it even though it was someone else’s business.
When I saw the sick girl, I was reminded of Hwa-eun in Sacheon.
‘I’m sorry, Father. I’ve been unfilial.’
After failing to practice martial arts, the daughter apologizes with a pale face from poisoning.
That face came to mind and I couldn’t just leave.
That is why Dangcheolsan looked after the child with utmost sincerity.
It was because no one knew better than their daughter or granddaughter how their parents felt when they were sick.
And in between taking care of the child, she made medicine and washed and applied medicine to the eyes of people with eye problems.
For people with a fever, make an antipyretic to lower the fever and give it to them.
After examining all the sick people, the surroundings became dark.
One of the Tang family’s warriors approached and handed me a towel soaked in water.
“Master, please wipe your face. You’ve worked hard.”
“Thank you. I’m sorry.”
“Thank you.”

The person who handed over the towel was Gu Pae, the leader of the Poisonous Blood Unit.
He was a man of great character and was respected by the warriors of his family.
The reason he stayed here was because he was injured while trying to save other warriors who were in danger of dying while capturing Qingbanwugong.
“By the way, what about Sohyup?”
“Oh, I guess you must have been tired from helping with the work, so I left you lying down in your room because you fell asleep.”
“Yes, it must have been hard for you to endure it for several days with us without learning any martial arts. So, what do you think of the small group you’ve been observing for a few days?”
Dangcheolsan asked Gupae about Weisoryong.
Aside from So-hyeop’s talents, I wanted to know his character, so I asked him to examine So-hyeop’s character for a few days.
Since he was going to be my son-in-law, his character was important, separate from his talents.
“Since Sohyeop has not become a member of our Sacheondangga yet, can I tell you honestly?”
“Of course.”
Dangcheolsan nodded because that was what he had wanted, and Gupae began to talk about the small-scale conflicts he had experienced.
“First of all, it’s strange that he lived alone as an orphan in the jungles of Haenam, raising poisonous creatures. It’s only natural for someone his age to miss people.”
“Yes, it is true that Sohyeop is a genius.”
“Yes, but if you were to ask if his personality is as bad as that of the eccentric people of the martial arts world, no. He is not ordinary, but he does not seem to have a vicious or cruel personality either.”
“Before coming here, you released some of the poisonous creatures you were raising for fear of death. So, you are definitely not a cruel person. Then, you will be a good son-in-law for me, right?”
Gupae bows his head to Dangcheolsan’s question.
“Yes, but I’m worried···.”
When he said he was okay but was worried about something, Dangcheolsan tilted his head and asked back.
“Yeah, what’s the problem? You said it was fine.”
“I guess he has the talent···.”
Dangcheolsan also knew.
The association is now fourteen and fifteen.
It was a bit late to learn martial arts, and the fact that the quality of the small group itself wasn’t that good.
However, Hwa-eun was there in terms of martial arts, and the value of So-hyeop did not lie in martial arts, so he shook his head.
Even if you only have the talent of Sohyeop, you might be able to further develop the martial arts of the Tang family.
No, it was clear that it would definitely grow further.
“Don’t worry. The value of the small group is not in that. Haven’t we all seen the poisons that the small group has raised?”
“Still… If he is your match, he is outstanding in many ways….”
“Haha, this guy is so greedy. If someone saw you, they’d think you were Hwa-eun’s father.”
“I’m sorry. Let’s go.”
All of Gupae’s words came from concern for Dangga and Hwaeun.
At those words, Dangcheolsan smiled broadly.
That means that Gupae thinks of Sacheondangga and Hwaeun.
And after thinking about Sacheon Dangga and Hwaeun, his gaze turned to the girl who was still lying unconscious.
“By the way, this girl is in big trouble.”
First, we lowered the body temperature with antipyretic acid and made medicine to raise the lost energy, but we were unable to find the root cause.
If you don’t solve the problem of the heartburn, the pulse will become unbalanced again.
Because if he leaves, he can’t guarantee the girl’s life.
“Couldn’t you find the cause?”
“I dare not come at all. As you know. There are few people in the Tang dynasty who have read as much medical books as I have. I have never seen or heard of a disease like this.”
“We can’t just stay here forever, what’s the big deal?”
“Right. Would you like to check it out?”
Just in case, he tried to feel Gupae’s pulse, but after checking the girl’s pulse, Gupae shook his head.
“I have no idea either.”
Eventually, the two of them wondered if there was a way, but no idea came to mind.
It was now completely dark outside and bugs were starting to fly towards the lantern.
“Oh, I should check if my son-in-law is sleeping well. There are bugs flying around here. It must be because it is hot here, there are as many bugs as in the Yunnan jungle.”
“I will take care of it. Come this way. You guys take care of the young lady here.”
“Yes, my lord.”
It was when I arrived at the room where my son-in-law was sleeping to check on him, leaving the young lady in the care of another warrior.
The face of a young son-in-law who was sleeping while lying in the swinging light.
It was a moment when I was looking at my son-in-law sleeping with a happy heart.
-Padadak.
There was a sound of a fly fluttering from somewhere, and one of them landed on my son-in-law’s forehead. It slowly began to crawl across my son-in-law’s cheek and towards his lips.
‘No, that guy!’
If my son-in-law gets bitten by a bug, it’s a big problem.
That’s because there are many poisonous insects in Haenam that you don’t know about.
So, Dangcheolsan ran quickly towards his son-in-law and swatted the bug with all his might.
-Tsk!
I couldn’t forgive him for daring to ask for my son-in-law.
“Kwaaak!”
But in my excitement to catch that insolent bug, I forgot that the bug was crawling on my son-in-law’s cheek.
Eventually, the son-in-law woke up, grabbed his reddened cheeks, and looked at Dangcheolsan with resentful eyes.
“What, what is this!? Oh my, it hurts!”
It would be absurd and resentful to get slapped in the middle of the night out of nowhere.
Dangcheolsan scratched his head and answered.
“Um, sorry. I accidentally caught a bug crawling on your cheek.”
“No, sir. If you catch a bug, you’ll catch me first. Oh, my gosh.”
“I’m sorry. Really. I accidentally reached out my hand because this big bug was crawling on your cheek. Look at this. Isn’t it a big bug?”
Dang Cheol-san held out the bug he had caught to make an excuse, saying that he had caught such a big bug and that it was all for his son-in-law.
Because it was still stuck to my palm.
Fortunately, it was not Dangcheolsan, but his son-in-law who turned his resentful gaze toward the bug.
But something strange happened.
The son-in-law, who had just woken up from sleep and had just noticed the bug, suddenly opened his bleary eyes wide and brought his face close to the bug, which was still in its original form on his palm.
And finally, a strange question came to his son-in-law, who had dragged Dangcheolsan’s hand next to the lamp.
“What, what is this? Why on earth are these guys here!?”
It means that there is a bug here that shouldn’t be there, but is here.
Dangcheolsan asked cautiously.
“What the heck is this bug?”
Then the son-in-law looked up at Dangcheolsan Mountain and answered.
“No, it’s not a kiss… It’s the Central Plains… What should I call this? Oh! Right! A slit insect! This is a bug called a slit insect. Sir.”
“Me, a mosquito?”
A kissing bug.
Dangcheolsan opened his eyes wide at the name of the obscene insect.
The name of the bug was not just a little obscene.
