Next, we will recite the Virtue of A Great Physician
in front of Dr. Huang's grave.
To console our ancestors,
carry on the legacy,
remain true to our original aspirations, save lives and heal the injured.
These are our aspirations.
The Virtue of A Great Physician...
Do you think he can
hear you reciting these?
Do you really think
he can hear you reciting these?
He can't, can he?
In this case, I think Western medicine is better.
At least Western medicine practitioners don't have to do something like this.
Look at you bunch.
Western medicine practitioners have to take an oath too.
The Hippocratic Oath.
Fine. You are all the same.
You said the oath for yourself.
Just like when people get married,
they say "I will love you for the rest of my life."
"I will love you for the rest of my life."
In the end, it's just a lie.
Have you never visited a grave?
Have you not attended any memorial service?
Won't it bother you if someone is being so impolite
in front of your family's grave?
I have no family, so I have never visited any graves.
I'm an orphan.
I grew up in an orphanage.
I've never seen a ceremony like this.
The biggest ceremony I've ever attended
was every time there was an open house,
every child would sit at the front door
with a red headband,
waiting for the adoptive parents
to come and adopt us.
As time passed,
the obedient children were adopted.
The disobedient ones were also adopted.
Even the sick ones were adopted,
but no one wanted me.
For me, my closest families
are the women
who took care of me
in the orphanage.
Tou Tou,
I'm sorry.
Rebecca didn't know about your background.
I was just messing with you.
You...
Is it fun to lie?
What else can you do besides lying?
You are like a dandelion. You are rootless.
But we all have our own families and ancestors.
Even if you don't understand this, don't agree with this,
can't you just stay silent?
Or do you think you can seek pity or sympathy by behaving like this?
I don't need pity
nor sympathy.
I just think,
you know what this is called?
Gathering for superstitious beliefs.
Got it?
A bunch of people
put a bunch of stuff
in front of a deceased person.
Do you know that many people do not have enough to eat or drink?
Do you know what this looks like to me?
You are wasting food.
I really don't understand what you are thinking.
You just stand here
and recite poems.
You really think he can hear you?
You are reciting something people don't even understand.
The Virtue of A Great Physician.
What's point of this?
It's not like he's your own family
He wasn't related to you. And you're paying respect to him.
Seriously.
Present illnesses may have internal similarities but external differences,
and likewise, they may have internal differences but external similarities.
Therefore, the fullness or deficiency of the organs
and the obstruction or smooth flow of the blood vessels affect each other.
The slope is quite steep.
You guys do this every year.
You walk this path every year.
-Professor Ren. -Everyone's here?
You guys came much earlier than last year, right?
No. Every year,
you all come earlier than me.
Yes, yes. You must be tired.
The food is ready.
We can have lunch soon.
Okay. Thank you, thank you.
Tian Zhen,
these are your dad's patients?
They are folks from nearby villages.
They know we would come to the mountain every year to visit the grave,
so they would clean the room
and cook for us in advance.
My parents would also take the opportunity to check their health.
-It's good. -Let's go.
As I told you before,
take this decoction
three times a day.
Take it half an hour after meals.
The prescription last time was good.
It worked very well.
-Good. -Thank you.
It's nothing.
We left a lot of food
on the grave just now.
Professor Ren, don't worry. It won't be wasted.
When life is difficult,
the folks are taking them home as rations.
Although the offering is for worshiping the ancestors,
they are merely symbolic gestures.
The offerings taste better than the usual food.
Why would we waste them?
How's your life?
There is no need to ask.
Everyday is like Chinese New Year.
Those wild animals in the mountains will finish them.
Tou Tou,
did you hear what he said?
Was something bothering you?
You couldn't sleep?
I was surfing the web.
I've been tired from work all day.
I need to relax in the evening.
You're not relaxing.
You're slowly killing yourself.
Providing offerings
are merely a ritual,
a yearning and gratitude
towards our ancestors.
The fruit and the snacks
you care about
won't be wasted.
What is superstition?
Superstition is when one does nothing
and simply waits for pie to fall from the sky every day.
We should be good people and do good deeds.
What is that called?
It's called cultivating a righteous heart.
Tou Tou.
Take note. Write down everything I say.
Is your stomach much better than last time?
Of course.
Since you advised me last year,
I haven't had any ice-cold food.
I don't even dare to drink beer.
You must persist.
I'm not trying to scare you.
If you keep this up,
your liver meridian will explode.
Really?
Plus, you smoke and you drink.
You have to go to bed before 11pm from now on.
Okay.
Your turn.
-What time do you go to bed? -No one go to bed early these days.
Will you take a look at this?
Show me your tongue coating.
How do you spell "coating"?
Li Quan,
teach her how to spell that.
Your issues aren't serious.
I will give you a prescription
that will treat all of your problems.
Disconnect the WiFi at 10pm.
Did you write it down?
Did you say it?
You didn't say the prescription.
Disconnect the WiFi at 10pm.
-This is the prescription? -That's right.
This is the prescription?
That's right.
Remember,
don't do anything
after ten o'clock.
Just go to bed.
If you sleep well consistently for three to six months,
most of your ailments
will likely diminish.
You're so humorous, Professor Ren.
This is a modern era.
No one goes to bed at 10pm anymore.
It's important to get enough sleep and wake up early.
It plays a crucial role
in the recovery of your body.
Sleep is also a remedy.
Mr. Ren,
the ancients worked at sunrise and rested at sunset.
Yet their average lifespan was just around 40 years.
Looks like going to bed early doesn't necessarily prolong life.
Don't listen to him.
He likes to contradict me.
I don't.
The rain has stopped. Lunch is ready. Let's have lunch.
Let me help you.
Thank you, ma'am.
The food is great.
Yes.
Good. Let's try it.
Have a seat.
Let's dig in.
If a physician
indulges in leisure with pleasure and arrogantly revels in it,
this behavior is considered disgraceful by both humans and gods.
It's something the noblest individuals would never do.
These are probably the basic virtues that a doctor should possess.
Explain it.
Go ahead.
It means that
if someone in a house is suffering from pain,
then everyone in the house will be unhappy.
This pain will continue to accompany the patient.
Especially for a doctor like you,
who at this time is selfishly worrying about his own stomach
and happiness,
this is absolutely something that angers both humans and gods.
You get what I mean?
What's wrong, Tou Tou?
Come. Let me read your pulse.
Ling Ian,
did you bring brown sugar and ginger?
Yes.
Your feet are cold.
You shouldn't expose your feet during your menstruation period.
Listen,
starting today,
you have to wear socks to bed every night.
After you go back this time, you have
to drink menstrual pain reliever soup for two weeks.
Tou,
I left you a bowl of chicken soup.
It's still warm.
If you don't want it, I will finish it.
I want it.
Leave it there. I will go and drink it later.
I can't keep this.
Peng Shi Yan,
this behavior is considered disgraceful by both humans and gods.
It's something the noblest individuals would never do.
He's drinking my chicken soup.
Just stay here.
But he's drinking my chicken soup. There is no food left for me.
-I've saved you lunch. -I saved you...
-Chicken soup? -Brown sugar water.
Okay.
Finish this.
Tou Tou,
finish this ginger water first.
I will perform acupuncture on you later.
Tian Zhen, bring me my needle bag.
Okay.
I was just about to bring it to you.
-Thank you. -Have some warm soup.
Let me warm my hands first.
The girl
is really smart.
Despite not having studied for many years,
she has a good memory.
Just now, she blurted out,
"This behavior is considered disgraceful by both humans and gods.
It's something the noblest individuals would never do."
Throughout our lives,
we go through two stages,
a sense of existence
and a sense of belonging.
This girl
lacks a sense of belonging,
so she desperately tries to gain attention,
seeking to feel something.
Actually, being aggressive or fierce is not her character.
That's right.
I hope we can help her
find a sense of belonging.
Hurry, hurry.
Have some warm soup.
You should leave the mountain with the car later,
and head home to rest.
-Have some. -No.
-Then... -No, no.
The weather in this mountain changes three times a day.
I don't want you to catch a cold.
Don't worry about me.
You must get your cold treated.
It's not uncommon for a cold
to worsen to pneumonia.
I know.
Take care of yourself and get some rest when you get home.
Students, you've got your schedules.
Starting today,
we will begin
a one-week retreat course.
Prior to this,
we have studied some theories
and practical techniques of acupuncture
in TCM.
From today onward,
we will begin to recite the classics
and establish a connection
with the esteemed ancestors and sages.
Let us cultivate the habit of diligent study.
As you know,
the three months of spring are known as the season of revival and rejuvenation.
Nature is full of vitality. All things appear vibrant and thriving.
People sleep early and rise early. They take walks in the courtyard.
They loosen their hair and relax their bodies to invigorate the spirit.
March
is the season when life begins to sprout.
We should take advantage
of this period of rejuvenation
and align ourselves with the growth of Yang energy.
Therefore,
it is important for everyone
to sleep early and rise early.
Mr. Ren,
what hour is considered early to go to bed and get up?
Is there a standard time?
Ancient people paid great attention to the division of time.
In the Chinese zodiac, the hour of "Hai" corresponds to the Pig sign,
specifically from 9pm to 11pm.
During this time period,
pigs sleep most soundly.
I sleep most soundly at the time.
If you haven't gone
to bed in this hour,
then it won't be ideal.
I understand that
asking you to go to bed at nine o'clock is a little difficult.
Therefore,
let's set a rule that you should not sleep later than 11pm.
However, remember that
you must wake up
at 5am.
It's time to start studying and cultivating.
But according to meteorology,
it is said that
to enter spring, the average temperature must be equal to
or greater than ten degrees Celsius for five consecutive days.
The temperature in this mountain
has definitely not reached spring yet.
Moreover, with such heavy cold in the morning,
wouldn't it be worse for our health?
Remember, the change of seasons is not solely determined by temperature.
For example,
this student is a bit slender.
If she puts on multiple layers of clothing,
she may look very fat,
but the truth is she is still slender inside.
As you know,
spring has occasional cold snaps,
sometimes even colder than winter.
However, it is still considered spring.
The air is different.
I got it.
You can't see it nor touch it.
How do you know if it's here or not?
Pardon me?
The air?
Can you see or touch oxygen?
But you still breathe, don't you?
Students, today,
we are going to start reading
Yellow Emperor's Inner Classic:
Questions of Organic and Fundamental Nature,
specifically the section
on the Spirit Regulation in Four Seasons.
After everyone has finished reading this section,
you will have a better understanding of the air.
Nights come very early
in the mountains.
Remember, you should adhere
to a routine of sleeping early and rising early.
Also, starting today,
we will enter into a secluded training program me.
Class Leader,
you will confiscate
everyone's phone later.
-Hang on... -From today onward,
I hope that you all
will be completely undistracted.
Can you not take away our phones?
No.
Why do you want to take away our phones?
All right, Class Leader.
Lead everyone to begin reciting
the Virtue of A Great Physician.
Spirit Regulation in Four Seasons.
Second.
The three months of spring
are known as the season of revival and rejuvenation.
Nature is full of vitality. All things appear vibrant and thriving.
People sleep early and rise early. They take walks in the courtyard.
They loosen their hair and relax their bodies to invigorate the spirit.
Do not kill the living, give instead of taking.
Reward instead of punishment. This is the harmony of spring Qi.
It is the way of nurturing life,
going against it will harm the liver.
When cold occurs in summer,
there is little to support growth of life.
Come.
Mr. Ren,
all phones are collected.
(Qibo Medical Center)
Dr. Song.
-Morning. -Dr. Song,
there is a mother and daughter there who insist to see Professor Ren.
They've been here even before you left.
They've been waiting for three days.
Didn't you tell them
we were going to Mount Huafeng?
I did. They won't listen.
They insist on waiting here until they see Professor Ren.
All right. I got it.
Excuse me.
Are you here to see Professor Ren?
We heard that
Professor Ren's acupuncture technique is very good.
So, I brought my girl here to see him.
You came at a bad timing.
He took his students to Mount Huafeng.
He will take at least a week to return.
I'm his wife.
I'm a doctor too.
Will you let me
examine the girl first?
(Zhu Xia)
(Ding Jian Xi)
(Qibo Medical Center)
It was my birthday.
She sneaked out
to buy me a cake.
She wanted to surprise me.
She was waiting
at a red light by herself.
A terrible accident occurred.
A fast driving car
hit my daughter.
Dr. Song,
why do I have to
suffer such a miserable fate?
Her father died early.
I brought her up alone as a widow.
I was afraid that she would be wronged,
so I didn't get remarried.
No one could talk me into it.
I thought my life was finally getting better.
I don't know
how many bad things
I had done in my past life.
Why is God punishing me like this?
If He wants to punish me, he should have let the car hit me.
He...
Jian Xi is only 22 years old.
Her good days had not yet begun.
This is all my fault.
Why did I let her go out that day?
Zhu Xia,
don't think like that.
I
have a son.
He's about the same age as Jian Xi.
I don't think he even remembers
what day my birthday is,
let alone buying me a birthday present.
You see,
Jian Xi is such a good girl,
such a good daughter.
This is your blessing.
Yes.
Natural and man-made disasters
are beyond our control,
right?
You must not take
all this guilt upon yourself.
Stay strong.
You have to remember that
you are Jian Xi's reliance and hope.
I've shown her X-ray film
to all renowned doctors in Beijing, Shanghai,
Guangzhou, and Shenzhen.
They've tried everything.
Nothing worked.
She might stay this way for the rest of her life.
I'm worried about
how she can take care of herself if I get sick one day.
I mean,
what if I die one day?
Then, Jian Xi will be...
I don't dare to imagine it.
Zhu Xia. Zhu Xia,
I hope
you won't have such thoughts from now on.
I promise you,
we will do everything we can,
but you have to have faith too.
I have faith.
You have to brave.
Where is Tou Tou?
She was still sleeping when I left the room.
Still sleeping?
Class Leader.
Li Quan, go and wake Tou Tou up.
Take this with you.
If she won't get up,
whip her.
Yes, sir.
Tou.
Get up to study now.
Wake up.
-Hurry. -Tou Tou, get up.
Mr. Ren is calling for you.
Get up.
Fine. This is Master's order.
I'm going to hit you
if you don't get up now.
All right.
Three, two, one.
I want to get out of here!
Xin Zheng,
you really have great patience.
It's been a couple of days.
Why did you finally remember to
go see Little Lark today?
I almost thought
you were giving up.
We're here for closed-door training,
not catching up with an old friend.
Save it.
So why do you have time to call me here today?
We're leaving in two days.
What should be done must be done.
Xin Zheng,
we are going to knock on the door of your old crush.
If the one who opens the door is your old crush,
this will be a timeless tale then.
She is a hermit,
who has transcended the boundaries of gender.
Please come in.
We were looking for an old friend.
Thank you for your time.
I might not be the one you're looking for,
but you are the one I'm looking for.
I know you.
Tou Tou is so obedient today.
She went to bed so early.
I know, right?
She snores so loudly.
Who will share a bed with her in the future?
Us.
Why are you still awake?
I can't sleep without Tou Tou snoring now.
Tou Tou,
Don't cover your head with the blanket.
Get up. Tou Tou is gone.
Get up now.
Tou Tou is gone.
Every day,
I get up earlier than a rooster and eat less than a rooster.
What will be left of me
by the time we can go back?
They want me to learn
and write calligraphy.
Look at me.
Do I look like someone
who studies and writes calligraphy?
I want to eat and drink.
Once I get out of here,
I'll eat and drink
as much as I want.
I will play with my phone.
I will play all night long.
I will stay up all night.
Yes.
Why should I cultivate everyday?
I'm such a smart girl.
I'll just...
I... I'll just...
I'll just eat and drink whatever I want.
You can't control me now!
I'm free!
There is another slope.
Why do I feel like I've been here before?
I will set this up here.
Where is the red string?
How come I don't see any of the red strings
tied by Ling Ian?
Why am I walking on another slope?
How... How...
How is this...
I set this up, didn't I?
This is simply a maze!
Is there anyone?
What should I do?
I give up. I...
I give up!
I'm so unlucky!
Unlucky!
What should I do?
I'll wait until the sun comes up.
Wait until sunrise.
I can't get out of here.
I'm exhausted.
Where do the bees come from?
No! No!
Get away from me!
Get away!
Back off!
Back off! Back off!
Help!
Help! Help!
Tou Tou?
Somebody!
-I'm here. -What's wrong?
I'm here. I'm here.
There are hornets.
-Calm down. -Let me handle it.
Don't be afraid.
Spray them.
-Are you done? -Yes, yes.
It's okay now. It's okay.
Come, Tou Tou.
Tou Tou, are you okay?
I'm fine, I'm fine.
-I'm fine, I'm fine. -It's okay now.
It's okay now.
The hornets are gone.
-Are you okay? -Let me see.
Your face are swollen.
Why are you laughing?
How can you laugh?
A great physician must be calm in spirit,
free from desires.
He must first have a compassionate heart
and be committed to relieving the sufferings of all people.
Relieving the sufferings of all people.
How can you laugh?
You can never be a great physician!
You've become so articulate now.
Master.
I'm here, Tou Tou.
Where?
This side.
You were going to leave, weren't you?
All right.
It's good that you are still alive.
-You can leave now. -No, no, Master!
I'm staying.
I'm staying. Really, I'm staying.
I am very,
very grateful that
the four of you came to find me.
Because today,
I went from there
to here...
There are only two of us here.
Oh, my God! This is killing me!
I'm really...
My head is buzzing now.
And, I really...
I'm really staying.
I will practice calligraphy well,
read well
and cultivate well.
-So, you are really staying? -Yes!
I'm staying.
Will you doze off again when you are studying?
No.
Will you doze off again when you are cultivating?
No.
-Will you practice your calligraphy? -Yes.
If you do it again next time, I won't come find you.
There won't be a next time at all.
Next time...
-Next time... -Let's go.
I feel like I've been stung on my tongue too.
My tongue has been stung.
-All right now, let's go. -This is killing me.
And my tongue.
-Your tongue is going numb too? -Yes.
Look at this. Look.
It's clearly marked as the right way, and you didn't take it.
Look.
You chose the wrong way instead.
-Come on. -Okay.
Wait.
Stop looking. Just walk.
Come on.
The hornets are here.
What's wrong?
It's so cold.
You reminded me.
I should use something warmer.
Do any of you have pee?
Pee?
That's right.
Go and pee. Bring it over.
I make it into a paste.
It's warmer that way.
Master,
it's fine. It's not cold anymore.
I'm feeling quite comfortable.
No.
You just reminded me.
My master told me
that urine
is a good antidote to poison.
Mr. Ren.
Slow down, slow down.
Don't get it on my hands.
Master.
-Yes? -I...
Is it too late for me?
No.
It will be too late for you
if you are feeling dizzy.
I'm feeling dizzy now.
Even if you're dizzy, I can still cure you.
As long as you are not short of breath,
I can cure you.
I feel like I'm short of breath.
I feel like
I'm being...
Shush, shush.
Dad,
Tou Tou really passed out.
She's not passed out.
She is tired and frightened.
She fell asleep.
She's really something.
We've been tirelessly searching all night for her.
Look at her. She fell asleep right away.
That's right.
Unbelievable.
Students,
our final lesson during seclusion is to practice footwork.
And you finished it tonight.
We'll leave here early tomorrow morning.
Yes, Mr. Ren.
Tian Zhen,
apply the rest on her face.
Okay, okay.
-Be gentle. -Okay.
Don't remove the blanket.
Tian Zhen,
will this work?
Yes.
-Trust my dad. -Do...
-Do you need more of this? -No.
You really do come from a wealthy and influential family, Prince Ren.
I was too kind to you before.
Quan, he will pay for our meals from now on.
Freeload off him.
This is my grandpa's medical center, not mine.
Listen to yourself.
-It will be yours one day, won't it? -I don't need it.
Besides, there is no explicit rule
stating that this must be passed on to me.
Listen to him.
Who else will it be passed on to if not you?
You just don't appreciate what you have.
I'm telling you,
it's such a nice medical center.
I'd be over the moon
if it could be passed on to me.
You two are so weird.
What does my grandparents' and my parents' stuff
have to do with me?
And it was not my choice
to be their offspring.
You both talk as if I was blessed with to have these advantages.
Maybe you should try
standing beneath this ancestral legacy yourself.
If you don't strive to grow,
you won't even be able to see the sun above.
I got something to say. Gather round, students.
Class,
gather round.
-What's wrong, Tou Tou? -My legs are numb.
You knee led too long.
Class,
practice is the sole criterion for testing truth.
Previously, we have basically concluded
the lessons on TCM theory.
So, from now on, you will learn and help out
at the medical center on weekdays.
We will continue with the apprentice class on weekends.
Am I going to do acupuncture or prepare herbal medicine?
You are sweeping the floor.
During this period,
we will invite influential teachers
from different schools
and with different specialties
to give you lectures.
We hope that everyone of you
can find out a field that you like
and is most suitable for you
during this learning period.
You don't have a choice.
You'll just have to follow me.
