[Not your typical miracle-doctor story with endless treatments. Feel-good thrills, multiple heroines, underworld intrigue…]
The county town’s Brahmin!
Chen Yi, a barefoot doctor in a remote mountain village, possesses peerless medical skills passed down through his family. But after practicing without a license, the villagers he had treated turned around and falsely accused him, taking him to court.
Disillusioned, he agreed to pay compensation and cut ties. He had planned to retire from the world, but to his surprise, beautiful women of every sort began showing up at his door:
A stunning heiress plagued by recurring, debilitating menstrual pain;
A cool, aloof policewoman left infertile after being injured on duty;
And a fair-skinned beauty, a top student from a family of traditional Chinese doctors, who covets his ancestral medical art and refuses to leave his side.
The villagers called him a fraud. But when they went to the county hospital for treatment, they were horrified to discover the truth:
The “urinary obstruction” he had diagnosed was uremia, a condition Western medicine was powerless to treat!
The consumptive illnesses, abdominal masses, and chronic ailments he had cured were all conditions even major hospitals wouldn’t dare promise to treat!
His uncle wept bitterly. “Chen Yi, I had no idea urinary obstruction meant uremia! The county hospital doctors told me you were a fraud!”
His third aunt blocked the door and wouldn’t let him leave. “Chen Yi, you’re the only one who can cure me! Hurry and prescribe something! I’ll pay whatever it costs!”
The villagers who had once demanded compensation and tried to put him behind bars now regretted it bitterly and begged him to help them.
Looking at the beautiful women and the villagers who had come to regret their actions, Chen Yi smiled faintly.
“Sorry, I don’t have a medical license!”
Good! The plot is compact and ups and downs, and the atmosphere is strong, making it worth reading.
The plot is well thought out
