Once upon a time, in a remote village, there lived a highly respected old man. He was a skilled doctor and a kind person. No matter what illness the villagers had, they came to seek his help. The old man never refused and always did his best to treat them, so he was deeply loved by the villagers. One day, a poor man in rags came to the old man's door. He was seriously ill and desperate. The old man saw his pitiful appearance, said nothing, and immediately treated him. He also gave him some food and clothes. The poor man was overjoyed and thanked him repeatedly. The old man said: ‘I don’t refuse anyone; that’s my principle in life.’ From then on, the old man's reputation grew even greater, and more and more people came to seek his help. The old man always adhered to his principle of never refusing anyone, saving lives and helping the injured, and eventually became a famous doctor.
