Origin Story
从前,有一个村庄,村民们都很穷,经常生病。村里有一位老中医,医术高超,但治病很贵,村民们都付不起医药费。有一天,一个村民病重,眼看就要不行了。村民们都束手无策,不知该怎么办。这时,一位老翁出现了,他手里拿着一颗金光闪闪的药丸,说:“这颗药丸叫做“万应灵丹”,可以治好任何病。”村民们都很高兴,赶紧请老翁为病人服药。病人吃下药丸后,果然很快就恢复了健康。村民们都非常感激老翁,并把他奉为神医。然而,老翁却神秘地消失了,留下了一句话:“世上没有万应灵丹,要治好病,还得靠自己。”
Once upon a time, there was a village where the villagers were very poor and often fell ill. There was an old doctor in the village who had extraordinary medical skills, but his treatments were very expensive, so the villagers couldn't afford medical care. One day, a villager became seriously ill and seemed to be close to death. The villagers were desperate and didn't know what to do. Then an old man appeared, holding a golden pill in his hand and said, “This pill is called “万应灵丹” and can cure any disease.”
