Mo Yung Where have you been? I miss you very much
I've brought someone here
She is...?
Tung Ching, Little Buddha's daughter
Hello, Miss Tung Ching
Hello, Madam Li
She's here to give you consultation
Really?
Is my illness curable, Miss Tung Ching?
How's it? Is it curable?
Mo Yung's illness is curable?
She's Tung Ching Little Buddha's daughter
Hello, Miss Tung Ching
How do you do, Miss Tung Ching?
You must be Dr. Li Yin Man and Madam Li?
It's good you're willing to treat Mo Yung Both Shi Chun and I had failed to help her
How's it, Miss Tung Ching?
My dad had treated a girl with similar symptoms before. I can try to help her
Great!
Thank you
Help her lie down first OK
Why don't you allow others to be here?
Treat it as if it's a secret family treatment method
Even you aren't allowed to look at it
Don't be scared. I'll be here with you
Are you afraid that I'll harm her!
No
Well, this is...?
This is "leech and needle therapy" I bet you must have heard of it before?
There's a description of it in Shen Nong's Compendium of Materia Medica"
It's the functions of removing blood stasis and promoting menstrual flow
But I thought it could only be ground up into powder for internal use
I don't know it can be used like this
Someone had adopted this method since the Western Jin but it'd been lost later
My dad learned about this method while he was traveling around
Madam Li, sit still and I'll administer the needle on your face now
You'll have a slight stinging sensation
OK. I won't let it suck so long on it
How come it's so wet?
What's it?
Mo Yung... Mo Yung...
Help her lie down on the bed OK
The macula on her face has faded a lot
The leech promotes blood flow. The blood vessels of the dermis fill with blood now
The faint red color is a normal phenomenon
In ancient time, leech was used to suck away blood stasis due to external injury
But the macula on Mo Yung's face is caused by kidney deficiency and blood stagnation
How could the leech suck away the macula?
The leech won't suck away the macula
It stimulates the dermis's blood vessels and promotes blood circulation
In blood stasis, the leech is allowed to suck as much as it likes
But in her case here we must pull it out once it sucks the blood
OK, I see
But in treating macula we must prescribe the Soup of Six Drugs
It helps tonify the kidneys, promotes blood circulation and removes blood stasis
The leech is just complementary It helps speed up the fading of the macula
In that case, the decoction I prescribed for her should have worked
The effect is only more gradual
But dad says blood stagnation is caused by liver choppiness and kidney deficiency
The patient must often maintain a good mood and can't be anxious, impatient and nervous
Not every patient can do it
So the prescription mayn't work on everyone
You've got a point
Apart from using drugs, a doctor must care about a patient's psychology as well
As in M0 Yung's case
playing the role of a daughter-in-law has become too much a burden to her
That's the cause of her illness
Tung Ching
I'm really grateful to you
To cure her illness you'd been going to many places
You even came to beg me to help you
My work is nothing when compared with your toil
It's really not a big deal when compared with Mo Yung's illness
Take good care of your wife. I'm off now
Tung Ching, what if you stay for a meal? We'd like to show our appreciation
No, dad has been waiting for me
My presence will be a stumbling block to your sweet family life
Miss Tung Ching
Brother Li
I've been looking for a chance to apologize to you in person
I'm really sorry for the marriage proposal last time
If I'd been more eloquent you wouldn't have been so upset
Forget it. I don't want to talk about it
You're not cross with me anymore?
Even I want to be cross with someone you're not the one I want to be cross with
You're peeling away both the skin and the flesh!
Let me do it for you
Asking Tung Ching to treat Mo Yung is really a dilemma
It's like peeling off the skin of the pear You must handle it with skill
I know I've upset Tung Ching by asking her to treat Mo Yung
You're not afraid that Tung Ching will poison Mo Yung out of jealousy?
You really trust her!
She isn't that sort of person She's a doctor of great integrity
She won't harm Mo Yung
Bro, I really feel that I've owed Tung Ching too much
Don't blame yourself anymore Let bygones be bygones
Anyway, you should try your best to cherish her as your friend in future
By the way, I'm grateful to you You've kept the secret for me
If dad had known about it I'd have a hard time to explain it
No one will know it except you and me Don't worry. Take it
Mo Yung, you've almost recovered Hey! Look at yourself in the mirror
Mom, don't force me to do that I don't want to look at myself. I'm so ugly
Don't worry. You've recovered
Mo Yung, it's time to drink the decoction
My face was bitten by the leech I must be ugly. No mirror, please
Actually you've almost recovered Sit down first. Have a look
The macula has really faded a lot. Great!
Let me check your pulse first
A forceful and vigorous pulse Smooth blood circulation
The drugs seem to be working well
Let me check your tongue as well
Congratulations! The dark spots on it have disappeared
The macula will disappear soon
Really?
Miss Tung Ching is really great
Though she's a girl she's brilliant medical skills
She's cured my illness I must do something to express my gratitude
You must also thank Little Buddha
Since Mo Yung should get more rest here you should go and thank them on her behalf
Sure, dad
Thank you for curing my terminal illness
The gift is too insignificant when compared with your grace and deeds
You must take it
Thanks! Treating others gives me great satisfaction
Your recovery is the best reward for me
When I got the liver tumor every doctor said it was a terminal illness
But you wanted to treat me with arsenic I was scared to death when I heard that
If I hadn't forced him to follow your prescriptions...
Arsenic for liver tumor? He'd have died already
You were cured because you trusted me I'd another patient who didn't listen to me
He reduced the dosage. He died in the end
He could cure a terminal illness? That's why he's called the miracle doctor
He even accused me of poisoning him
Thank you, doctor Don't mention it
Actually I come here to thank you
How come you didn't bring any gifts to me?
I'd like to ask why arsenic can be used to treat liver tumor!
I travel a lot and I've seen a lot
I always dissect animals to study the causes of their illnesses
In those animals with swollen livers
the cause of death is the existence of small malignant tumors in their livers
You applied arsenic to those sick animals?
Yes, I gave them small quantity of arsenic
After 3 to 4 courses of treatment I found a reduction of the swelling
In pharmacology, the arsenic probably kills the virus in the liver
Treating liver illness with arsenic? The patient was cured?
It's true, dad. Otherwise the patient wouldn't go back to thank him
This Little Buddha cured Mo Yung's weird illness with a leech
He also cured a patient of terminal illness with poison. He's really a miracle doctor
His medical skills are really brilliant Everybody treats him as God of Earth
That's why he's called Little Buddha
Are you two really treating him as God?
You always tell me there's no limit in learning medicine
Since he's so brilliant and knowledgeable I guess we can learn a lot from him
I'm not criticizing his medical skills but he's a bit extreme in the use of drugs
A leech causes wounds before the illness is cured
Use of arsenic poses high risks too
Dad has got his point
But doctors should be flexible
Though I've learned a lot from you I can also learn from other experts
I can read your mind!
I've got your approval?
You're a doctor already It's OK to learn from other experts
But you must remember
no matter what you've learned you must treat your patients with caution
I got it
You want me to be your teacher? Yes, Master
Hey! I haven't agreed yet
I can't think of a reason that you can use to refuse me
I've heard about what you've done as a doctor
Your medical knowledge and skills are also better than many other doctors
but that doesn't mean I must take you as my student
I've brought you the best sticky rice wine It proves my sincerity
You're well-known in the Lake Pin area Your dad is also a famous doctor in Qizhou
Why do you still ask me to be your teacher?
Though my dad is a respected doctor he's a bit too conservative
But Master, you're different You've the guts to be innovative
I should learn from other experts in order to become a good doctor
Convincing! Very persuasive!
No way! You'd betrayed my daughter
You're in luck that I haven't driven you away
Taking you as my student? In your dreams!
You always lament that I'm a girl
so I can't practice as a doctor and further develop what you've taught me
I bet you'd like to have a student who can carry on your medical heritage
But he...
If you lose a good student You'll blame me for the rest of my life
It's at your discretion whether you'll take him as your student or not
It seems to be a good pot of wine Why don't you get some for your Master?
Thank you, Master
Master, I'd be obedient and attentive
Great!
Actually Tung Ching should be your senior To show respect, offer her a cup of wine
Sis Tung Ching, please have a cup of wine
Bro, it's a fresh start from now on
Try your best to learn. Consult me if there's anything you don't understand
I got it, sis
(Prince King's House)
We haven't returned since we married I hope uncle won't be cross with us
I'm wondering what his response will be when he sees me
This was your home before you married Whatever happens, I must come back with you
Miss
Miss Kin Hei Master Li
Miss, your face...
Don't tell me the macula comes back again?
Of course not! You're prettier than before
You should see Prince King immediately
He's upset about your illness he's throwing a tantrum inside
Let's go inside now
It's ridiculous! They're all lousy doctors
No one has the guts to tell me he can cure Mo Yung's illness
They're not scared until I rip up their shingles
Even Shi Chun and his dad can't guarantee any success in curing Mo Yung's illness
You can't blame other doctors for it
Master, Madam, you've surprise visitors
Mo Yung!
Uncle, auntie
Prince King
Mo Yung, your face...
Yes, my face has recovered
Right, the macula has gone
Thank God for it
Credit should be given to Shi Chun for trying his best to help me
He's her husband and also a doctor He's obliged to cure her illness
You finally acknowledge I'm the husband of Mo Yung
A bride must return to her old home on the 3rd days after the wedding
I haven't scolded you for not bringing her back earlier
If you like I can come here everyday with Mo Yung
Great! I'm bored since Mo Yung has married. I miss her everyday
Come back as often as you can We can have a party everyday Yeah
It seems you're blaming me for not allowing them to come back
Well, uncle, as I've recovered already you won't close down Shi Chun's clinic?
I always keep my word He's cured your illness. I'll let him off
But you should be a good doctor. Otherwise I won't let you off even you're my relative
Sure, uncle
Don't call me uncle. I'm Prince King I feel more respected with that title
Don't be fussy about titles. I just concern whether you'll treat him as a family member
What have you used to repel the insects and moisture?
Those cotton quilts have been put away for almost 1 whole year
They're dry and there're no clothes moths
I've got a secret weapon. It's very simple
Put some peppercorns in the quilt cover They absorb moisture and repel insects
Mom, dad Mom, dad, bro You're back, Mo Yung
You've gone for a long time
I bet Prince King must have been harsh to you
No, he treated me as if I were a V.I.P.
He served me snacks and tea That's why I came back so late
He's given his blessing to your marriage?
Yes, I feel relieved finally
Why do you hang the quilts so early this year?
The cool weather has come earlier this year The autumn wind is blowing now
I must make sure the quilts are ready when we need them
The weather has been very unpredictable
Shi Chun, go and grab some honeysuckle wild chrysanthemum, winter mulberry leaves
And turnip and cabbage too Then drink their decoction as tea, right?
What's the use of drinking it?
When temperature drops, it's easy to contract the "wind-warm pattern"
Drinking it will improve your ability to withstand the illness
Dad, I'm going to look for the herbs now
Let me go with you
Mom, is there anything I can do for you?
You've just recovered Get more rest. Don't strain yourself
Everyone has got something to do I feel bored if I've got nothing to do
You can go out with Kin Hei I'm afraid you'll be tense when you work
It'll be too bad if you get another weird illness
You should listen to your thoughtful mother-in-law. Get more rest
OK. Thank you dad. Thank you mom
(The Clinic)
Choppy and feeble pulse and there's fever What other discomfort have you got?
Coughing, runny nose, sore throat and chill
We've similar symptoms, Dr. Li
Yeah, Dr. Li
The autumn wind has been blowing recently The weather is unpredictable
The wind evil will enter the body via the cold and moist air
That's why you'll get ill easily
Give us treatment now. We're very ill
We've only 1 doctor here. Be patient
There're so many patients. Can I help?
Tung Ching
It's great if you can help us Bro Li
Dad wants me to keep an eye on you He cherishes his reputation very much
Look, she'd claimed herself as the medicine immortal. She's a con-artist
A female doctor? Is she trustworthy? Is she capable?
It seems that I'm not welcome here I'd better leave now
Stay here
Why are you so prejudiced against hei? She's my senior
Her medical skills are as good as mine
Is it true?
She was the lady who pretended to be the medicine immortal
She cured everybody who came to seek her treatment, right?
That's true
Little Buddha is my Master She is my Master's daughter
I admire her ability Why is it so hard for you to trust her?
Be more reasonable
In any case she isn't a doctor with proper recognition
OK. My brother will give consultation This lady will prepare the prescription
Then my brother will check the prescription
If there's no problem, I'll pick the herbs Is it OK?
OK
I'm sure I can do my job well
Most of the patients are suffering from the "wind-warm pattern"
Is it possible they've caught the illness from each other?
We've been in close contact with these patients
We can become infected easily We should take some preventive medications
Help me! Help me!
Sis Yat Sis Yat
What's up, sis Yat?
The baby has been crying incessantly I'm afraid he's got the "wind-warm pattern"
Calm down and grab a seat first
When did he begin to cough?
When he cried, I thought he was hungry
I fed him with milk but he vomited before finishing it
Then he started to cough
Let me give him a checkup
The baby has no fever but there's a stagnation of the "qi"
That's why he's not breathing smoothly
You said when he cried you fed him with milk
Then he vomited and began to cough incessantly?
Yeah, yeah
How come you fed a crying baby? You'd choke him
It's none of your business Are you a doctor?
This is common sense Doctor...
OK, OK. Stop arguing with each other The baby has just got whooping cough
Coughing helps him clear the air passage He'll be fine
Will it take him a long time to recover?
Let him eat Glycyrrhizae radix and Bulbus He'll recover soon
Bro, grind the herbs up into powder
Sis Yat can mix it with warm water and give the decoction for the baby to drink
My baby is really lucky I thought he's got the "wind-warm pattern"
The "wind-warm pattern" has been fierce
You've elderly people and baby in the house You ought to be more careful
You're right
I'll get you some preventive medications against the "wind-warm pattern" OK
I'm lucky you and Tung Ching are here I'm not afraid even I've become ill
In any case, prevention is better than cure
We haven't got too much herbs left
Let's go and buy some now
Don't leave until bro Li has ground up the herbs
Come on, you want me to stay with this nut?
I don't like staying with a chatty chick either
It's ridiculous. Isatidis radix and honeysuckle flowers are inexpensive herbs
Those unscrupulous merchants seize the chance and raise the price unreasonably
We've no other choice. The flu is so fierce
All the suitable herbs in the hills were grabbed
They'd seize the chance to raise the price
The poor won't have the money to buy the herbs when they're ill
Flu epidemic occurs every year How come it's so fierce this year?
I'm afraid it'll develop into a plague
Don't scare me
I hope I'm wrong. Let me go home with you
You want to take me home?
I'd like to ask Master ways of dealing with it
I've too many fantasies!
Dad isn't home. He's a glutton He must be fishing in the pond
Dad
It's a disaster!
Why are there so many mosquito bites on your face?
I just took a nap and the mosquitoes had a big dinner
But it's autumn now How come there're still so many insects?
It seems the weather has changed a lot
It's worse than you think. Look at the fish
How come there're so many dead fish?
I've inquired about it already
The pigs reared by Uncle Kan at the far end of the village have got hog cholera
I'd told him to kill all the pigs
I didn't expect the cholera virus had gone into the pond and killed the fish
Many people in the town have contracted the "wind-warm pattern"
We've a very serious situation
I bet a pandemic is developing
Mo Yung, it's good you're here I've got a lot of laundry. Come and help me
But you've told me you wouldn't need me I'll be going outwith Kin Hei today
Going out again? You go out everyday!
I've different activities everyday Today, we'll be watching Chinese opera
It's my favorite. What if I go with you after hanging the laundry?
Sorry, I just expect to go with Kin Hei. How about next time?
Mo Yung
Mom
How's it? You're waiting for me?
No, I forgot to tell you I mightn't be able to come back for dinner. Don't wait for me
OK
How's it? Tired? Do you need any help?
You'd better help me let off steam
What you're doing? You've brought all the kitchen stuff with you
How come you can still smile?
If Madam knows about it I don't think you can smile anymore
I want to improve my cooking skills so that I can lighten mom's burden
She doesn't allow me to do anything now I really feel bad to be a lazybones at home
You should be more cautious
I don't get it
Madam will complain about you
Why?
It's improper for a married woman to stay outside all the time
It's also improper if I do nothing at home I don't mind if mom mistakes about me
I just want to be a good daughter-in-law
You've really changed a lot
I'm no longer a good-for-nothing homebody I've married and I want to be a good wife
You'd better teach me how to cook now Hurry up OK
(The Clinic)
Bro, Mr. Suen is dying. He seems to have contracted the "wind-warm pattern"
Come and give him a checkup
Dad... Doctor, what's happened to my dad?
Don't be scared. Let me have a look
Has he got thick and yellow phlegm?
Yeah, yeah
His pulse condition is floating and weak Evil wind has entered his lungs
There's a huge accumulation of phlegm and it leads to heart and lungs failure
I beg you to save his life
I'm not optimistic about his condition Anyway, I'll prescribe some drugs for him
Thank you, Dr. Li
What's the prescription?
Asparagus, 3 Seeds and Artemisia decoction Besides, we'll add some Ephedra and gypsum
This prescription is for those whose hearts and lungs still function
It works well on patients at the early stage of pulmonary abscess
Dad... It's a pity his condition is very critical
What's happened to Mr. Suen?
He's got pulmonary abscess caused by the "wind-warm pattern"
Is it curable?
No effective medication is known so far
Damn! Many people in the neighboring village have got this illness
Many people there have packed and left
I've heard that many people had died already
Is it possible the neighboring village is the source of the "wind-warm pattern"?
I bet it's highly likely
Dad is right A plague has broken out in Lake Pin
You're looking for Lord Lam? It's about something urgent?
He's having a meeting with Prince King in Prince King's House
(Sam Yik Herbalist)
I've got news from the Capital
Pong Hin, who's the son of Pong Pak Chun
Deputy commander in chief of Brocade Guard, is here
He's learning medicine here
The bodyguards work in the palace and report to His Majesty directly
Mr. Pong Hin is a V.I.P.
That's why I'd like to ask you to help me arrange a meeting with Mr. Pong
I'd like to be the host and show my hospitality
Pong Pak Chun is an important official We should get along well with his son
I've something urgent. Prince King, Lord Lam
Why did you come here to look for me? What's so urgent?
The "wind-warm pattern" has spread fast Everybody is trying to buy drugs
The Government Pharmacy can't meet this huge demand
Other drug stores seize the chance and raise the price of the drugs unreasonably
The common people suffer very much
They can't afford to buy the drugs? So what? Should I be responsible for it?
I'd like you to allocate extra fund and ask other drug stores to donate the drugs
What? Allocating extra fund?
Donating drugs?
The "wind-warm pattern" is really no laughing matter
Stop saying something ominous
Are you accusing me of mismanagement?
I've never said that. But if it's become a pandemic, many people will die
I suggest we must notify the public about it immediately
Your suggestion will make my territory become a dead city
I warn you not to talk nonsense and cause panic
You've to bear all the consequences
"Wind-warm pattern" is highly contagious
Do you know many people in the neighboring county were dead?
I don't care about it as long as no one dies here
You're making a mountain out of a mole hill
If the Imperial Court knew about it I wouldn't know how to answer their queries
Prince King, send him away
Your indifference will cause deaths
Ridiculous! You've no right to criticize me
Though you're high ranking officials and members of the nobility
you're indifferent to the people's needs
Haven't you got any feeling of guilt?
Hey! Do you know who you're talking to?
If he isn't your niece's husband I'll beat him fiercely 50 times
Don't be choked up. Let's discuss how to entertain Mr. Pong Hin Sure
When the city gate opens
Shi Chun, Tung Ching and I will inspect the villagers coming in and out of the city
We'll check whether they've contracted the "wind-warm pattern" and pulmonary abscess
If we find such a patient we must persuade him to get treatment
Otherwise, the illness will spread easily
This'll allow us to know the number of people who have contracted the illness
and the seriousness of the condition so that we can plan for follow-up actions
We 3 will deal with crowd control Sure
Don't count me out!
Dr. Li
You are...?
I'm Kc Shan You spoke for me in front of the Governor
Otherwise, I'd have been forced to move out of my dwelling
I know you've set up a medical checkpoint so I went to the hills and got some herbs
I've brought them here to show my support
Thank you very much
The city gate has opened
OK. Let's get ready
Grab your stuff and follow me
Everybody, stop and listen There's been a pandemic recently
In order to stop it from spreading we've set up a temporary medical checkpoint
We'd like you to go and get a very quick and simple checkup, OK?
Please follow our instructions
For the sake of yourself and other's health line up for the checkup, OK?
Please line up. Please cooperate with us Take it easy
The pulse condition is normal Have you got any other discomfort?
No, I'm fine You may go
Thank you, doctor
Hey, he comes from the village where there's the pandemic
How come he's allowed to enter the city? He may spread the disease to us
The doctor said I'm OK
There's a pandemic in my village but that doesn't mean I'm ill
Since he comes from that village he shouldn't be allowed to enter the city
That's enough! Stop labeling my village as a pandemic village
I'm talking the truth You shouldn't come here
Stop! Stop! You've set up a medical checkpoint without prior approval
People are fighting each other now Do you know you've broken the law?
It's not their fault I'm the one who made the suggestion
In any case, I'll be responsible for it
Bring him back to the Magistracy
Sir... Sir... Shi Chun... No... Shi Chun.. Bro... bro... Sir... Sir...
You set up a medical checkpoint at the city gate without my prior permission
Do you know you've broken the law?
I just don't want the disease to spread Is it wrong to do that?
You've caused panic among the people They clashed because they were scared
You'd better admit you're a troublemaker
How can you describe such measures as stirring up troubles?
Your problem is making it too noticeable
The Imperial Court will blame me for my inability to manage such a small city
You're paid government servants Have you cared about the common people?
I've come and talked to you about it before but you've been indifferent to it
Even if the Court wants to blame someone do you still consider yourself as innocent?
Though you're my niece's husband you'd better behave yourself
Let me warn you here
If this matter has gone out of control I'll hand you over to the Governor
You're the student on the honor roll in the Imperial Academy of Medicine?
You're the one who damaged my medical books?
Let's chat later. Save life first
Siu Tung
He's running a temperature
Stagnant pulse condition and vital energy Shortness of breath. Hey, his lips are pale
It's the "wind-warm pattern" and pulmonary abscess
Angels! I saw angels coming to greet me
He's got illusions
This happens when a person is dying
This disease will kill a person within 24 hours
What should we do? Let him die?
We want to help but it's incurable
I'll help him if you don't Siu Tung, take him back OK
Wake up! Wake up! Wake up! Calm down
Hold on! He's dead
How can I calm down? I've studied medicine for so many years
He's dead now. I could do nothing about it
You must control yourself I don't want him to die either
The plague has broken out Many people need our treatment
What we can do now is looking for ways to control the plague
Someone died outside the Magistracy?
The pandemic has broken out We must do something to reduce the deaths
If people die this isn't an ordinary "wind-warm pattern"
We must deal with it in a serious manner
What will you suggest, Mr. Pong?
I'd like to give free consultation in the Government Pharmacy
You're the son of a high-ranking officer
You're also a student on the honor roll in the Imperial Medical School
If you want to work in the Government Pharmacy
no problem and you're welcome
Even we've Mr. Pong to help us we mayn't solve the whole issue
To prevent the pandemic from breaking out
we must first control the movement of the people
We must also set up quarantine facilities so the sick and the healthy are separated
This will prevent them from spreading the disease to each other
We must quarantine the patients We don't want to get the disease
Do as what Mr. Pong has suggested
Yes, Sir
Prince King, what I mean is...
Don't worry, Mr. Pong. Since you're here we must arrange some entertainment for you
I'd like to organize a welcome banquet as an expression of our hospitality
When you go back to the Capital
try your best to speak lightly about the pandemic in Qizhou Yeah
I really hope that Qizhou will get over this pandemic
But I'm not interested in other things
Besides, I've just mentioned about the quarantine facilities
Regarding other follow-up work...
Wow! The pandemic is so fierce
I must go back to my place and check whether I should evacuate the people there
Prince King, I haven't finished yet
Talk to Lord Lam. It's the same You've the green light in everything
Since you're here you can stay in the Magistracy
Get some rest and I'll organize a welcome reception tonight?
I'm fine. I'd like check the condition at the Government Pharmacy as soon as possible
Siu Tung, let's go
You're back?
Are you all right?
Our neighbors said you were arrested
Mo Yung and I just wanted to look for you in the Magistracy
We set up a medical checkpoint at the city gate today
But the officers arrested us and warned us not to be troublemakers
The government is indifferent They even forbid us to do anything
It's so unreasonable
I'm glad you're fine. Don't be upset
Mom has cooked some delicious food that can help prevent the "wind-warm pattern"
Chub with Astragalus root, coriander with yellow beans, congee with chive
Have you washed the bowls and chopsticks a few more times?
I've washed them with boiling water
You've been treating the patients It's easier for you to contract the illness
Have you washed your hands yet? Don't bring home the germs
We've washed our hands already
So many people have contracted the illness It can spread to us easily
Shall we nail up all the windows and doors?
No, we must keep the air flow freely so the virus won't be trapped in the house
Mo Yung, you're not very strong Don't go out unless it's necessary
I don't want you to become ill
Mo Yung, have you heard of it? Don't go out unless it's necessary
I got it
(The Clinic)
We've almost used up the herbs
But there're still so many patients
Let's handle the most serious cases first
Save as many lives as possible
Take away all the patients with the "wind-warm pattern" Yes, Sir
You can't take away my patients
Go Walk
Quick!
You can't arrest my patients
The Governor and Prince King order us to quarantine those patients in the hills
They're not right to do that
I don't know People say it's Mr. Pong Hin's suggestion
Did the Governor say how he'd treat the patients in the hills?
He said the operation is preventing the disease from spreading to others
I don't think he's a plan to treat them
You'll leave these patients to themselves?
They're indifferent to these people's life and death?
You're taking the patients to the hills
for quarantine? Yes, Mr. Pong
Hurry up! Sure
Why do you want to do that?
What?
I told you to ask the Governor to put the patients in quarantine
so that we could give them better medical attention
Why do you send them to the hills and let them die there?
I suggest sending them to the hills. Then...
What's the use of your medical knowledge? You've no medical ethics at all
You're not qualified to be a doctor
What you said is right but don't put the blame on me
I just suggested putting the patients in quarantine for centralized treatment
This will stop the disease from spreading
I didn't know they'd be taken to the hills and left there
I bet the local officials want to do this because they're afraid of the disease
Prince King and the Governor are notoriously selfish
They're really ridiculous! They're indifferent to the outbreak
Dad, I'm a doctor I can't sit back and do nothing
You want to help the people in the hills?
Of course
But there're so many patients in the hills
Apart from treating the patients we need to handle the supplies
I'm afraid we'll be overwhelmed
Let me summon other doctors to join us
Will they listen to you? Let Uncle Li do it
He's been serving as a doctor in Lake Pin for many years. He's also a man of honor
Shi Chun is also trusted by the villagers You should let them run the campaign
Dad and bro, we count on you
Let's go and liaise with other doctors
You'll have my full support
Hey, don't count me out
We won't. You're a fellow of the Imperial Academy of Medicine
Of course, you're welcome
Dr. Li, the soldiers took the patients up the hill here
OK. Let's go
If you don't go back to the hills you're against the order of the Governor
You'll be sent to prison
Anyway, we'll die in the hills We'd better die with them together
How dare you want to disobey the order!
Stop it!
Calm down
Get up first. Don't worry. We'll treat you
Get up first
To prevent the disease from spreading to others
keeping you in the hills is the best alternative
Right. Stay in the hills and get treatment there
I promise you can meet your other family members soon
But the pandemic is so fierce and people died because of it
Can we really recover?
No matter how hard it is all the doctors will try their best
But I must have your cooperation first
Sure
We'll cooperate with Dr. Li and his son Yeah
I've arranged people to take care of your daily needs
You can receive your treatment in the hills without any worries
If we hang together, we'll win this battle!
