Spirit Exorcism

"Ouch! That hurts!"
"That was the ghost of dead grandmother."

"Ah, that is painful!"
"Ah, so dragon soul sleeps in groin."

"Ohh, that is stiff!"
"Yes, wild buffalo spirit is moving."

"Mmm, now that feel's so wonderful!"
"100 yuan please."


An-Yi: Not much has changed . . . modern medical science is often as pre-occupied with money-making as the snake-oil charlatins of yester year.
Daiki: Yeah, and the witch-doctors of today all have university degrees.
Chariya: It's easy to be cynical, but most spiritual healers are bona fide. They simply work on a level some people do not acknowledge.
Bhäraté: Our understanding of health is still primitive.
