Description

Introduction
The author went to Africa to practice medicine as a veterinarian. The mysterious witch doctor Dr. Mzimba was the first to visit. He not only brought a few weak puppies that needed treatment, but also said, "I have been waiting for you for sixteen years. I saw you sixteen years ago!" Just imagining that scene is enough to make people's hair stand on end. And this is just the beginning... In the days of practicing medicine in Africa, he encountered a series of incredible people and things: fighting with meat vendors in the market with a big knife; arm wrestling with people in the bar and teaching bar girls to play chess; hosting the local people's coming-of-age ceremony and learning how to connect with the "Holy Spirit"; and even became good friends with the witch doctor and discussed life philosophy with him. It seems that he is not doing his job properly, but he really helps people and animals struggling in difficulties, which also makes this trip to Africa particularly different.
1.
This is Africa! This is the magical African continent, where anything can happen and often does! If you save the puppies, they will always protect you, even after death. Their original owner is a mysterious witch doctor, and you are the one he has been waiting for for sixteen years. In addition, you will meet the "witch doctor" who can turn into a coyote in the legend and become his guest of honor; meet the soul messenger in the eyes of Africans and witness it bring sad news with your own eyes... This poor land is full of incredible charm, which makes you return again and again and miss it again and again.
2.
This is not only a bizarre and wonderful journey of practicing medicine in Africa, but also a direct confrontation between justice and kindness and evil and greed. In this poor land of Africa, diseases are rampant and artillery fire is constant, but people still warm each other with love, so this place is called "the warm heart of Africa". Sometimes, the poorer the place, the more brilliant the human nature. Here, your soul will be deeply shaken and your perspective on life will be completely reversed.
3.
