Chapter: 127

Chun Yeowun then followed Jongmeng into the room. Jongmeng let Bakgi have a seat and began checking his various blood points.

“Hm... this is strange.”

“Is it dangerous?”

Bakgi was concerned so he carefully asked his question.

“No, your pulse is fine.”

“Then am I okay?” Bakgi asked with relief but Jongmeng then said, “Did you try meditating?”

“Yes, always. I didn’t sense any poison.”

“Hm... I can’t find anything from just feeling the pulse and blood points.”

Yeowun then interrupted, “His eyes turned red and his face became pale. His neck also had red dots.”

“What?”

Bakgi was shocked.

‘How did he see that?’

He was surprised that Yeowun had seen all those details at such a distance.

“I think it’s the poison that kills the target slowly.”

Yeowun offered his conjecture and Jongmeng exclaimed, “...Right! How did you know that?”

Chun Yeowun was right about the poison’s symptoms. Yeowun answered, “...My mother was killed by that poison.”

“Oh... I’m sorry.” Jongmeng bowed. He then remembered seeing his teacher taking the medicine to use it as an antidote for that poison a long time ago.

‘...So, that’s why.’

Bakgi also became apologetic. He was suspicious of Yeowun trying to help, but hearing this made him understand.

“Well, you can’t find that poison through meditating or just checking the pulse.”

“What?”

“Hold on.”

Jongmeng then went to his cabinet and brought something out. He then began mixing the medicines and fired it up. The smoke began to rise.

“Breath with your mouth to take the smoke in.”

“Mouth?”

“Yeah, a big one.”

“Okay.”

Bakgi then took in the smoke and began coughing roughly. He began to turn pale and the red dots popped up around his neck.

“Ugh!”

He fell down on the ground and kept on coughing. Jongmeng put out the fire, and then Bakgi got up with a pale face.
