    Default Weird Doctors in Wuxia

    Doctors in wuxia are unlike modern doctors, whose main goal is to save lives. It's not easy to get help from doctors in wuxia. They either want you to give something up or won't even mind you at all. Some doctors in wuxia, who instead of curing people, actually want to take their lives. One that comes to mind is Ping Yizhi. He says if he saves one life, another life must die.

    Can you name some weird doctors in wuxia that follows some strict, wacko rule? Or some that are really difficult to get help from?

    The obvious one is the weirdo from HSDS.... what's his name.... Hu something..... "Yellow Buffalo" - that's it. Hu Qingniu.

    He refuses to treat anyone not affiliated with Ming Cult, while his wife tries her hardest to poison those ppl to get him to do something.

    Green Buffalo!!

    Dr Xue was quite a normal chap, but unfortunately given plot reasons, he happened to be quite eccentric as well, refusing to heal Ah Zhu until Bai Shijing insisted.
