There are two types of illnesses. One type comes from the mind, from possession by spirits or demons. People will pray to Chang Tien Shih or Fa Chu Kung, who exorcise demons. The other, physical illnesses or pain, requires deified doctors for treatment.
而病有兩種：一種來自內心，就是被鬼魂所沖犯，拜的是會除魔抓妖的張天師、法主公等；而身體上的病痛，則祈求由醫生神格化的神來醫治。
