As Mu Cheng and Grandpa Fu entered the village, a few villagers on their way home from work happened to see them.

"Ah! Doctor Fu! Welcome to our village!" A middle-aged male came up to them and said with a smile.

"Doctor Fu! This is great. Little Ming's health has deteriorated. Please come examine him." Another villager hurried over and shouted.

Although it was late and the sky was dark. All the villagers that saw Grandpa Fu, would hurry over and welcome him.

"A'Fang! Can't you see Doctor Fu and his friend are exhausted after the long trip? Let Doctor Fu and his friend rest tonight." Another villager said.

"It's already night, how about this. Doctor Fu, you can stay at my home for the night. It'll also make it easier for you to examine little Ming the next day." The middle-aged man named A'Fang hurried agreed and invited Grandpa Fu and Mu Cheng to stay the night.

"Yes, it's late and Doctor Fu is exhausted. Doctor Fu, please rest well. We'll come over tomorrow then." A few more villagers came and greeted Grandpa Fu before wishing him well and going back home.

"Grandpa Fu, you sure are popular." Mu Cheng was shocked at the reception.

"Hohoho, it's nothing. I just happen to come by from time to time and treat a few villagers once in a while." Grandpa Fu said modestly.

"Little lad, Doctor Fu is the best doctor we have ever had. Not only does he charge the minimum, Doctor Fu is neither arrogant nor boasts his skills. Many quacks travel to these areas and charges us an exorbitant price, not only do they trick many healthy men and women that they are sick and needs medicine. They don't even know how to treat real injuries and illnesses, giving us fake prescriptions." The man named A'Fang humphed as he explained while leading the way to his house.

"Haha... How hard is the study of medicine in ancient times? It's already very good that the quacks did not accidentally kill someone and end up getting lynched by the village. In fact, Grandpa Fu is the abnormal one, how did even he manage to write such a thick encyclopedia with all the plants' effects? I would understand if it was in modern times. It's not like he has a human test subject, right...?" Mu Cheng ridiculed inwardly.

Apparently more than two-thirds of the village's population's last name was Hongguo(Haw), and A'Fang was no exception. His full name is Hongguo Fang.

After walking a few minutes, they arrived in front of a large wooden cottage.

"Here we are. Makes yourselves at home." A'Fang said politely as he opened the door and invited the two in.

"Zhihao! I've invited Doctor Fu and his little friend to stay over the night. Come greet them." A'Fang shouted.

Quick footsteps hitting the wooden floor echoed, before a middle-aged woman with few slight wrinkles on her face came up to the trio.

"Ah! Doctor Fu! Please come examine little Ming. She's very pale and weak these days. I don't know what happened to her. She suddenly weakened, and now she can't even walk on her own." The middle-aged woman hurried said, her face clearly showed how worried and distressed she was for her daughter.

"Dear! Doctor Fu is very exhausted at the moment. Let him rest for the night first." A'Fang chided his wife.

Grandpa Fu hurriedly waved his hand and said with a smile "It's fine, since I'm already here. Take me to little Ming first."

"Thank you! Doctor Fu!" The couple hurriedly bowed and thanked Grandpa Fu.

The couple hurriedly led the way to a side-room. Opening the wooden door, Mu Cheng saw a pale-faced 12-year-old young girl lying on a floor bed. It consisted of a bamboo mat at the bottom and several layers of cloth sheets or fur. Maybe because the girl was sick, the couple had made the bed extra soft with and thickened the layers of cloth under.

"Maybe mattresses are rare? Or is cotton and down filling is expensive? Or they just haven't gotten the idea to fill mattresses?" Mu Cheng wondered inwardly with curiosity after seeing the girl's bed. The stone beds in Grandpa Fu's mountain hut was one thing, as he lived alone and removed from human settlement. Making it difficult to transport any materials for such a long distance. But for Mu Cheng to see the bed of the villagers in such a state made him realize that this is really the ancient times.

"Let me take her pulse." Grandpa Fu said as he sat down next to little Ming.

The mother Zhihao hurriedly got to the bed and carefully extracted little Ming's arm out for Grandpa Fu to feel her pulse.

"Hm, hm..." Grandpa Fu put to fingers on little Ming's wrist and closed his eyes in concentration.

"Weakened heart, there seems to be a problem with the spleen." Grandpa Fu muttered.

"A large amount of toxin has accumulated in the spleen, affecting the whole immune system." Grandpa Fu explained to the couple.

"Holy Shit! This is the legendary pulse diagnosis. I thought it was all fake... Don't doctors normally need to feel the spleen to actually know that?" Mu Cheng yelled inwardly. The pulse diagnosis in the legend was capable of truly diagnosing all kinds of illnesses. It's said that a doctor could even tell if a woman were pregnant. Of course, it was all a legend back on Earth.

"Little Han, come try take her pulse. I've taught you the method already. This is your first time getting the chance to put it to practice." Grandpa Fu beckoned Mu Cheng.

"Ah, okay." Mu Cheng was now itching to try the pulse diagnosis as well. Although he had listened to Grandpa Fu's explanation before. But because he didn't believe in it, he hadn't paid any attention.

Mu Cheng carefully held Hongguo Ming's wrist and put two fingers on her wrist.

Thump, thump. All he felt was the girl's pulse beating. Taking the chance to inspect her while he was still touching the girl.

Name: Hongguo Ming

Age: 12

Status: Weakened, Poisoned> Heavy poisoned spleen, weakened immune system and heart.

Strength: 0.6(0.2)

Agility: 0.7(0.2)

Vitality: 0.8(0.3)

Intelligence: 0.8

"Okay, I did suspect Grandpa Fu a bit. But he's really accurate!" Mu Cheng said inwardly.

"How is it little Han? Do you feel it?" Grandpa Fu asked after seeing Mu Cheng's shocked look.

"Uh... No. Grandpa Fu, the pulse diagnosis is too hard." Mu Cheng shook his head in disappointment. Although he could simply find out the same things with his golden finger. He couldn't grasp the pulse diagnosis at all.

Grandpa Fu concocted a bowl of medicine for little Ming to drink. After finishing the bowl of medicine, Mu Cheng watched as Grandpa Fu took out a set of acupoint needles and placing then over certain acupoints directly ontop of little Ming's clothes. Then Grandpa Fu put his hand on little Ming's shoulder. A few minutes later, black viscous matter dribbled out of the acupoints with the needles sticking in them.

After the black viscous matter stopped coming out, Grandpa Fu put away the needles after wiping them clean.

"Alright, now that most of the toxin has been cleared. I'll write down a prescription." Grandpa Fu wrote down several herbs and the concoction method on a piece of rice paper.

Grandpa Fu handed the paper to A'Fang and said "Have little Ming drink it twice a day for a week. All the toxins will be completely gone by then.

"Thank you, Doctor Fu! For saving our daughter!" The couple bowed to Grandpa Fu with tears in their eyes.

"I can't believe our little Ming had gotten poisoned. Little Ming is always so obedient, she would never randomly pick things up to eat." Hongguo Zhihao said.

"Don't worry dear, I'll get to the bottom of this matter. It must be A'Ping's mischievous lad's fault. Always creating trouble everywhere." Hongguo Fang said.

"That's right, Doctor Fu, how much does the treatment cost? 20 copper coins, right?" Hongguo Zhihao suddenly remembered that they had not paid the doctor yet. Feeling slightly embarrassed, she hurriedly asked.

"There's no need to take a fee. Little Han and I, will be imposing on you. We'll be staying here for a while if you twp don't mind." Grandpa Fu said generously.

"Of, of course! Stay as long as you'd like. Thank you! Doctor Fu!" The couple hurriedly thanked grandpa Fu.

"It seems 20 copper coins is quite a lot of money." Mu Cheng thought. From the couple's expressions, Mu Cheng could tell how happy they were for being exempt from the treatment fee.

"I could potentially cure her with my golden finger. But with my lack of doctor qualifications, I can't really pose as a doctor treating her. I should ask Grandpa Fu to explain the doctor profession more clearly so I can upgrade it with AP later." Mu Cheng felt restricted with his use of his golden finger. He could potentially pose as a doctor and rely on his golden finger to cure people and earn a living. But his 6-year-old figure would not sound convincing at all. Either way, the doctor profession sounded interesting enough for Mu Cheng to learn.

The couple invited Grandpa Fu and Mu Cheng to dinner and later led the two of them to a room.

4 Am in the morning, the duo practiced Tai Chi. Half an hour later, they finished the practice.

"Sigh, I really want to upgrade Tai Chi now..." Mu Cheng sighed inwardly. Just now, he felt his Tai Chi improve, after inspecting the skill, he noticed that it had just leveled up from Level 2 to 3.

Since Mu Cheng had now gotten interested in the doctor profession. He asked Grandpa Fu to teach him more about treatment and everything related. Now seeing that Mu Cheng had been awed by his treatment yesterday and was now very interested to learn more. Grandpa Fu happily began lecturing.

After they ate breakfast, Hongguo Fang's house got swarmed by villagers asking for Doctor Fu. They would either come personally to get treated or invite over Doctor Fu to their house for treatment.

Several hours passed quickly as Grandpa Fu and Mu Cheng moved around the village treating all the villagers in need. Grandpa Fu also took the change to teach Mu Cheng with each patient's injury or sickness as study material. Mu Cheng was also very satisfied and listened attentively. 

By afternoon, Mu Cheng looked satisfied at the new skill he had learned.

Doctor Lv1(100/1,000)> Diagnosis Lv1, Acupoint Lv1, Dressing Lv1<

It was a real profession skill, once he leveled up the Doctor skill, the skills under it will also level up.

It was getting late, and the two had been running all over the whole day. They decided to go back to A'Fang's house and rest. Just as they had been walking for a couple of minutes. A few hurried footsteps echoed from afar.

"Bandits! Bandits are coming!" A panicky and distressed male voice came from the village entrance.

Mu Cheng and Grandpa Fu stopped in their tracks and turned around to see the commotion

"Oh no! Everyone! Hurry over quick, arm yourselves! Protect the village!" A man said.

"Quick! Women and children go hide!" Another man shouted.

"Damn it! Brother Tie is coming over tomorrow! If only the bandits came tomorrow!" Another man cursed.

"Doctor Fu, quickly go hide yourself! Leave this to us!" Hongguo Fang had come with a hatchet and shouted.
