Zheng Zhe was an experienced doctor. He had made breakthroughs in his medical skill recently and had become more skilled in administering acupuncture and medicine. He just took a brief look at her pulse and said, "Ma'am, have you constantly suffered from abdominal pain and vomiting year round?"

The strong man who was supporting the woman nodded repeatedly, "Yes, yes, yes, doctor, what you said is extremely accurate. My woman does suffer from abdominal pain frequently, often accompanied by vomiting. This time it lasted for three days and three nights, so I invited many doctors but they couldn't treat her. That's why I rushed to get an ox cart to take her into the city for treatment. Doctor, please save her!"

Zheng Zhe waved his hand and said, "Don't worry, she just has normal gastroenteritis. Just take a few doses of Baohe (protect and harmonize) Decoction." After he spoke, he shouted toward the medical practitioners in the clinic, "Go and brew a Baohe Decoction immediately! I need two people to come here and help carry this madam inside to settle her down."

Several apprentices agreed in succession. Some went to brew medicine and some came to help lift the person.

Listening up to here, Lin Dan instead took two steps forward, blocking their way, and carefully warned: "Physician Zheng, there is a big problem with your treatment. I took this madam's pulse just now as well– she does suffer from gastroenteritis, but......"

Before she could finish her sentence, that woman cried out mournfully, as if in severe pain. Her husband shoved Lin Dan away and scolded: "We're already at this stage, so why are you wasting time with nonsense? Can't you see that my woman is dying of pain? Hurry up and get lost! If you delay my woman's treatment, I will smash your signboard into pieces!"

The watching passers-by sneered: "That's right, that's right, you should quickly get out of the way! Don't interfere with other's illness. You're an inexperienced, young little doctor. How dare you challenge Physician Zheng? You're really going mad for attention and fame! You also said that this madam was inflicted with gastroenteritis. Everyone here knows that Baohe Decoction was a divine medicine developed by Physician Zheng and has a miraculous effect on gastroenteritis. After one dose, the patient will be mostly recovered. Could it be that you can make a medicine better than Baohe Decoction?"

Lin Dan shook her head and said, "But it's true that Baohe Decoction cannot be used for this illness..."

Someone next to her interrupted again, "Whatever, why don't you just drop it! Obviously, this madam can't hold on much longer. What you're doing is murdering people, did you know that?"

Somebody mixed into the crowd and muttered: "Hey, I recognize her! She often goes to our mountain village trying to treat people, saying that she doesn't charge a fee if she can't treat them. In the end, after a whole year, having treated eighty to a hundred people, she only received payment twice. You can imagine how awful her medical skills are."

Lin Dan followed the voice and looked over, and the person who spoke immediately shrank his neck and hid, but the people around him all exploded, laughing at her for having an exaggerated opinion of her own abilities. Some people accused: "Your medical skills are so poor, so how could you even open a clinic? If you do things like this, what's the difference between you and a killer? A killer charges money for killing people, and you also charge money for killing people, but at least they won't be sued for taking a life. Sooner or later, you're going to get yourself beaten to death!"

The woman gritted her teeth and glared at Lin Dan fiercely while moaning. Her husband was even more straightforward, directly ramming Lin Dan away. He then cooperated with several medical practitioners to lift the woman in as quickly as they could.
