Under the prosperous age of Qianlong, there was a hidden "medical massacre".
At that time, doctors did not distinguish between the deficiency and excess of cold and heat, and would prescribe "warming tonic" to everyone they met, pushing countless people to death who could have been cured.
Xu Lingtai, a commoner doctor, got into trouble!
He said: "There is no disease that is incurable, there is only a cure without understanding!"
He travels among the people and, with a silver needle, saves "bad evidence" from those who have been sentenced to death by quack doctors;
He wrote a book out of anger, and with a brush he wrote "Yi Guan Bian", which thoroughly refuted the fallacy of the abuse of warming and tonic.
Some people respected him as a miracle doctor, while others called him a madman.
He doesn't care. In his medicine cabinet, there is no "ginseng and aconite" that caters to the popular customs, only "theoretical methods and prescriptions" that go straight to the root of the disease.
His opponent was never a certain person, but the vicious medical profession of that era who "did not seek the scriptures and catered to the patients".
His battlefield is not in the court, but in every patient he pulls back from wrong treatment, and in every page of medical records that awakens the world.
This is a thinker's lonely war.
See how a generation of Taoist doctors, clothed in commoner clothes, resisted the medical turmoil of the entire era and became the Qihuang assassin who pierced the absurd.
"Doctors are concerned with human lives. How can we cater to popular customs and use medicine to test diseases?"
This is not an assassin's revenge legend, but the lonely struggle of a great doctor.
He saves not only the patient in front of him, but also the misguided medical knowledge of the world.

Reader comments
Nice novel. Each story is fascinating and thought-provoking. I finished reading the current chapter without realizing it and am looking forward to the author's updates. The protagonist, the doctor, is kind-hearted and has superb medical skills. After reading it, I gained a lot of knowledge about traditional Chinese medicine.
