Doctor Goes Back to Joseon

Chapter 114: Let’s see who wins [5]

“Hugh”

Ganghyuk felt nauseous because he got up very quickly.

He had to lean against the wall and as a result, Yeoju grumbled.

“See, the blood is life…”

“Indeed, but as you can see I saved a life.”

Ganghyuk pointed at the patient who had his hand on his forehead.

The patient who was trembling and had a fit was currently sleeping peacefully.

If Ganghyuk was an ordinary doctor, he would be moved by the scene.

But he was Ganghyuk and he would usually feel indifferent to these type of things.

He had some other thought in mind.

‘Heum. This patient has the same blood type ase. If he fully recovers, I can use his blood.’

If the God saw this, he may bring down heavenly judgement.

But Ganghyuk was a lucky person and it did not happen.

“Anyways, I need to go. Please take care of this patient. If there is anything else, just call me.”

“Yes, sir. Please don’t tire yourself. Your complexion is not good.”

“Of course, I lost almost 800mL of blood.”

Usually, the amount of blood needed for transfusion is only about 400mL.

It was not decided randomly.

People who knew blood best gather together and determine the amount after some discussion.

It meant that such amount would not give the donor too much burden.

‘Yes, twice the amount is too much.’

Ganghyuk went out of the room with staggering steps.

He felt sleepy but he could not sleep because of the situation.

In the next room, there was a storm brewing.

“Stay here if you want to live on.”

Makbong tried to stop the patient.

“Guys, listen to us. You just don’t understand.”

Dolseok tried to stop the other patient.

“Eok!”

A patient tried to run to Dongpa’s side and Yeoni hit him down without saying anything.

As a matter of fact, these three could stop more than 10 people at once.

But there were too many patients for them to stop and they were as strong as normal people without any disease.

“Hey, get out of the way! I want to be treated there!”

“Yes, I want to go there. Why are you stopping me?”

They were shouting, and their voice seemed to be full of vigor.

The only evidence that they were patients were their butts.

They did not feel comfortable because of their continuous discharge.

The patients on Donpa’s side were very silent, but those who were on Ganghyuk’s side were discharging nonstop.

“Heum.”

Ganghyuk was confused if he would be angry or he would be thankful.

‘The oral rehydration solution was more effective than I thought.’

As a matter of fact, the solution was water, salt and honey.

He did not have amino acids or fat at all.

But the patients recovered their vitality, which was very impressive.

“It is very effective, but they’re still trying to go there… These people are a lost cause.”

Ganghyuk looked at Dongpa.

Dongpa did not give the patients anything as he told loudly.

He gave some water occasionally, which aggravated the patients’ status.

But he might not know that he made the patients’ status worse.

‘Their vitality is gradually weakening. They seem like they’ll fall over at the next moment.’

Therefore, the patients were very silent and their side looked very peaceful.

“I want to go.”

“You can’t stop me.”

“Hey guys, you don’t know gratitude! My master saved you! Sir!”

Dolseok bowed to Ganghyuk when he saw him walking towards him.

At the same time, the patients who threatened Dolseok halted in their steps.

Dolseok was someone that they could fight with but Ganghyuk was a nobleman. They could feel it. In Bojewon, they gave him a clinic room and it seemed that he had some connection with the prince according to the public post on the wall.

Even though they really wanted to be treated by Dongpa, they could not say anything in front of Ganghyuk.

“Eum…”

They sighed with discomfort.

Ganghyuk opened his mouth while watching the patients who wanted to go to Dongpa’s side.

“You have strength now.”

“…”

They were dumbfounded, not knowing what to say.

Ganghyuk pointed at Dongpa’s side while maintaining his stern facial expression.

“Do you want to go there?”

“Well…”

“Who do you think looks healthier and better? You or them?”

“What?”

“Which side do you think has more energy to spare?”

“Eo…”

The patients could not answer.

They only thought of the symptoms. They did not think of vitality at all.

It was the same for Heo Jun and Heo Im who made the oral solution and fed them with it.

They wondered if it was a good treatment while watching patients discharge continuously.

But with Ganghyuk’s remark, they could see the difference.

‘Yes, Scholar Baik is right. It’s true that our patients are healthier.’

Heo Jun nodded his head before looking at Ganghyuk with respect.

Thinking of his personality and behavior, there were many problems. But his medical skill was undeniably good.

He was never wrong in medical treatment.

“You can see that you look better, right?”

“But we are still discharging.”

“They are discharging as well although the amount is less compared to yours.”

“Yes, we mean that. They discharge less. We have to eat although we don’t really want to eat…”

“Can’t you feel something strange?”

Ganghyuk pushed on the man’s forehead, who came out and complained as if he were the representative of the group.

The man was pushed back, as he could not withstand Ganghyuk’s push.

Perhaps he could not withstand Ganghyuk’s push even if he was not a patient.

Ganghyuk was big and strong, while the man was short and feeble.

Furthermore, he was a patient discharging as soon as he had oral solution. So there was no way for him to keep himself against Ganghyuk.

“Eo…”

“Who do you think is better, you or the patients on Dongpa’s side. Those who discharge without eating at all or those who discharge after eating something? What do you think?”

“Well…I think those who discharge less…?”

“What?”

Ganghyuk knew that the man and the other patients behind him did not understand what he meant.

He had seen many patients in this world and that world before coming here. He could see what the patients thought with a glance.

The problem was he neither recognized or acknowledged it nor reflected it to the treatment.

‘I’m getting angry.’

It was his problem as a doctor that he became angry rather than try to persuade the patient.

‘I am treating them by donating my own blood. These guys don’t know how to reciprocate gratitude.’

The thought of donating his blood made him angrier.

That was probably why he was so angry.

He even thought to leave them all just to die.

‘Shall I open a large anatomy practice room here?’

If he did not come here, they would all die anyway.

If it were not for Ganghyuk, they would follow the quack’s order.

‘It seems some are already dying.’

He could see some faces trembling.

It means that the imbalance of electrolyte has progressed further. They would die, if they followed Dongpa’s treatment.

While he was thinking of this, he could see Dongpa watching him.

He did not open his mouth, but Ganghyuk knew what he thought.

‘Heo. He ignores me.’

If he left the patients alone and let them go to Dongpa’s side, what would Dongpa feel?

It was clear that he would feel superiority and ignore Ganghyuk.

‘I cannot do that.’

He did not like the attitude of the patients, but what was more important was his pride. He did not want to lose face by leaving them alone and letting them go to Dongpa’s side.

The pride itself made Ganghyuk an excellent doctor as what he was now.

Ganghyuk approached him with a stern face.

“If you move one more step further from here, I will…”

Ganghyuk was about to threaten the patients. But at this very moment, there was a big fuss on Dongpa’s side.

“Eo!”

“What’s wrong? What happened to him?”

Ganghyuk turned around and found a patient having a fit.

People around him were trying to escape the scene. As they did not have enough strength to walk, they rolled their body to escape from the scene.

They called Dongpa with all their might.

“Doctor, please come here!”

“He’s dying!”

It seemed very urgent.

Ganghyuk stopped threatening patients and watched Dongpa since he wanted to know what Dongpa would do.

‘Let’s see what he will do.’

Ganghyuk was sure that Dongpa wouldn’t handle this situation properly. He wanted to see what he would do in this chaotic situation.

“Don’t be alarmed. Be calm and follow my order.”

Dongpa shouted loudly. As a matter of fact, the most startled one in the scene was Dongpa himself.

He could manage to approach the patient who was having a seizure but that was all.

He could not do anything but stand at a relatively far distance and look at him from there.

He tried to think up of an idea to treat the patient but it ended up in vain.

‘If you want to think of an idea, you should have learned some more. As you have no knowledge, you will not be able to find a solution.’

When he was a professor in that world, the students that he did not like the most were the ones who stayed in the examination room up to the end although they could not answer the questions.

If they did know something, their memories would reignite once they saw the examination question.

As they did not know anything related to the question, they could not answer the question.

If they tried to think up of something, that would mean that they did not know the answer.

Finally, Dongpa moved. The action that Dongpa made surprised Ganghyuk.

“Turn his head to the side.”

“Oh.”

Ganghyuk exclaimed.

That was what Ganghyuk would do in such a case.

Dongpa took the same action. It seemed that he had a good memory, as he had seen Ganghyuk treating a patient who had the same case.

“Then fasten him so that he could not make a scene.”

The next order was totally wrong though.

First of all, the people who were in the scene were patients.

They did not eat anything because of Dongpa’s orders.

They did not have enough strength to fasten the patient who was convulsing.

‘Fastening a patient who’s convulsing? No way. Someone will be injured at that rate.’

Ganghyuk slowly walked to Dongpa.

He shook his head and clicked his tongue.

‘A quack is making an incident and it is time for the excellent doctor to make it right.’

As Ganghyuk expected, there was a scream from the man.

He moved involuntarily, and people fastened him in place so he would not move. It made his arms and legs bend.

“Ahhhh!”

“Go away. You will kill him.”

Ganghyuk took the other patients who held the patient who had a seizure.

Dongpa protested.

“What are you doing? You will make the patient fatally injured.”

“You are making him injured. Leave him alone.”

The seizure might not last for long, as it was not caused by wrong brain waves.

“See, he stopped. Right?”

Ganghyuk pointed at the patient who stopped convulsing.

As Dongpa made him lie at his side, there was no big accident such as a blocked airway.

“Makbong and Dolseok. Move him to the room where I was.”

“Yes, sir.”

The two of them followed Ganghyuk as they lifted the patient up.

Dongpa frowned and grabbed the patient’s trouser.

“No. How can you take my patient? He is my patient.”

“Your patient? Ha… ”

“Yes.”

“Dongpa, you are discharging as well. You are infected. Look at your trousers.”
