(Gen Z)

(Episode 6)

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.

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.

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 Lan,

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 programme.

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.

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 Lan?

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!

Unlucky!

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!

Help! Help!

Tou Tou?

Somebody!

-I'm here.
-What's wrong?

I'm here. I'm here.

There are hornets.

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...

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 kneeled 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.
