Gu Youyou's reputation gradually grew, yet the Great Shaman did not openly reject the doctors from Zhuzhao Country. Since the two countries were in a good relationship at the time, the Nanzhao Emperor even officially thanked Gu Youyou, so the ordinary people began to gradually acknowledge Gu Youyou's medical skills.
Although they were accustomed to seeking witch doctors when ill, for those illnesses beyond the witch doctors' abilities, they would consider coming to Gu Youyou for a try.
She cured several diseases that the witch doctors could not, and many people, though silent on the surface, were truly impressed by her in their hearts.
One day, while she was treating patients, she heard a child's heart-wrenching cries from afar.
Soon, a thirty-year-old man came running in, holding a six or seven-year-old boy, with a look of extreme urgency.
"Doctor, Doctor Gu, my child's hand is severed, please, save her quickly."
