Once upon a time, a famous doctor was invited to treat a serious patient. The patient suffered from chest and back pain, low-grade fever, and coughing up dirty pus, all doctors were ineffective. The famous doctor read prescriptions for diagnosis and treatment, but couldn't find an appropriate treatment method for a while. When the famous doctor was tired, he sat down at his desk for a nap, and suddenly saw a woman in white floating towards him, saying: "This gentleman is a good man, kind and benevolent, and benefits living beings. When he sees a snake catcher, he will buy it and release it. Sir, you must treat it carefully." Heal him and save his life." The famous doctor asked the woman in white for advice, and the woman in white said, "Please follow me." He followed the woman in white to the outdoors, but the woman in white floated away, and there was nothing in the place where the woman in white was standing. There is a white flower snake, the place where the snake's tongue protrudes turns into clumps of grass.
