Bian Que replied: "Big brother treats diseases before the onset of the disease, so his reputation cannot be spread; the second brother treats diseases when the disease just broke out, and ordinary people think that he can only cure minor diseases; when I treat diseases when the disease is serious, most people see me bleeding through syringes on the meridians, applying medicine on the skin and other major surgeries, and think that I have excellent medical skills."
