"What happened to the King Pharmacist?" a patient asked. "He hasn't seen any patient for six days. I have been waiting for 10 days."
"Only 10 days? You should be content," another patient replied. "Someone has been waiting here for 20 days!"
Since the King Pharmacist couldn't figure out the composition of the decoction, he was in a bad mood. Therefore, he hadn't seen any patients in a few days. This upset the people waiting to see him, even though they knew that if he was in a bad mood, he would not do his job.
"I don't know when the King Pharmacist will cool down," a patient said.
"Oh, we can only wait," another patient said with a sigh.
The people waiting to see King Pharmacist looked helplessly at the two-story bamboo building. There was nothing they could do about the situation.
