1 Chapter 1 What Do You Know About Acupuncture?_1

"Master has prepared ten fair-skinned, beautiful brides with big chests and long legs for you, so hurry up and roll down the mountain."

"Master begs you, my female live streamer is arriving soon..."

Yin Tian looked at his old flirtatious master, who was pleading with him, with a pained expression on his face.

In the eighteen years he had been up the mountain, his master had never been serious!

Online romances with female live streamers... He made Yin Tian do all the shady stuff!

Grinding his teeth, Yin Tian glanced at his unlucky master, then nodded, "Fine, fine, I'll go down the mountain!"

The unserious old master immediately broke into a toothy grin, "I knew you cared about me, but I know exactly what you're thinking."

"Fate is predetermined by heaven, you can't force someone to break off an engagement with you, the girl must agree to break it off as well, otherwise it will damage your life span..."

"And the girls are all stunningly beautiful, your slim chance at life lies with them!"

While chatting and sending messages to the beautiful live streamer, the toothy master winked and made faces at Yin Tian.

Yin Tian had a unique constitution, known as the legendary Nine Yang Mysterious Body, filled with Yang Energy but always leaking Vital Energy.

Therefore, from a young age, he had been sent up the mountain to learn Taoist arts, spiritual practice, medical skills, and geomancy from his unserious master...

The mountain occupied by his unserious master was one of the Taoist blessed lands, so Yin Tian had to constantly cultivate spiritual energy there to replenish his own Vital Energy, just to barely cling to life.

But twenty years blinked by, and Yin Tian's cultivation had hit a bottleneck, with the replenished Vital Energy leaking out faster than it could be restored.

If this went on for a few more years, Yin Tian might indeed be in mortal danger.

"This time you're going down the mountain because your mortal fate has arrived, there's a glimmer of hope below that might change your destiny, you must make a lot of money for me when you're down there, I want to send luxury cars as gifts to the live streamer..."

Yin Tian took a stack of marriage contracts from his unserious master's hands and then headed down the mountain.

"I'll definitely buy you Huiyuan juice with the money I earn!"

...

Su Hang, in the Su Family's villa at Jin Garden.

This was one of the families from the ten marriage contracts.

"My grandfather has seen the marriage contract and told you to come in." A young girl walked out from the Su Family villa.

The girl was youthful and pretty, looking to be in her twenties.

Her eyes were bright, but her melon-seed face bore a touch of indifference. After speaking to Yin Tian, she turned and went straight into the house.

Yin Tian didn't care, and he followed her into the Su Family villa.

Upon entering the room, Yin Tian immediately detected a strong medicinal herb scent.

In the room, an old man lay on a sickbed, his complexion was pale as paper, his breath as thin as silk.

Upon seeing Yin Tian, he forced a smile, "Are you the disciple of Immortal Master Qin? Truly a handsome and distinguished young man…"

"Years ago, Immortal Master Qin said that I would face a disaster in ten years and would send a disciple to resolve it for me, and you really came."

Old Patriarch Su raised his hand and pointed to the indifferent woman beside him, "This is my granddaughter Su Qinwei, your fiancée..."

Su Qinwei, dressed in denim shorts, draped a casual white tee over her upper body, and had her hair tied back in a simple ponytail.

Her peach blossom eyes were brimming with youthfulness, and her facial features were delicate and tender.

Before Old Patriarch Su could finish speaking, Su Qinwei furrowed her brows, "Grandpa! I don't want any arranged marriage."

With a glance at Yin Tian, disdain filled her eyes, "Grandpa, you're just a bit sick, and dad has already gone to fetch Doctor Yu for you. You'll be fine soon; this is hardly any kind of disaster."

Hearing Su Qinwei's words, Yin Tian frowned.

His eyes turned towards Old Patriarch Su's body, and then he shook his head, "Old Patriarch Su, this... is definitely not a minor illness."

Having followed his unscrupulous master for many years, Yin Tian's medical skills were exceptionally refined; he could tell at a glance that Old Patriarch Su's body had serious issues.

Su Qinwei's brows were tightly knit now as she looked at Yin Tian with displeasure on her face, "What nonsense are you talking about? My grandpa has always been healthy; it's just a cold."

"Eyes dull and gray underneath, a black mark on the forehead, all three depressions showing signs of decline - his life will not be long," said Yin Tian, hands clasped behind his back, to Su Qinwei.

"Grandpa! Look at this charlatan, cursing you as soon as he enters the house," Su Qinwei said, her eyes ablaze with anger.

Old Mr. Su, on the other hand, raised his head and looked at Yin Tian, "Is my condition really that serious?"

Yin Tian nodded, about to speak, when footsteps were heard at the door.

"Dad, I've brought Doctor Yu's son here," said Su Changhe as he walked in, Su Qinwei's father.

Old Patriarch Su nodded, then introduced him, "This is the disciple of Immortal Master Qin, engaged to Qinwei since childhood..."

Su Changhe glanced disdainfully at Yin Tian, then turned and said, "Dad, this is Doctor Yu's son, Yu Yang, who is already the Chief Physician at our city's Third Hospital at such a young age, truly talented and promising."

Yu Yang stood tall, glancing at Yin Tian out of the corner of his eye, his expression utterly aloof, "Where did this country quack come from..."

Having said this, he then looked at Su Qinwei with a face full of ingratiating interest.

Although Su Qinwei was somewhat displeased with Yu Yang's attitude, the words Yin Tian had just spoken still made her nod, "Doctor Yu, please take a look at my grandpa and see if there's anything wrong."

Yu Yang nodded and came forward to examine Old Patriarch Su.

"I've checked, and Old Mr. Su is very healthy; he's just a bit frail recently. I'll do some acupuncture, and he'll be better," he said.

Being the son of the authoritative Chinese medicine expert Doctor Yu, Yu Yang carried significant credibility.

So with his declaration, even Old Patriarch Su felt relieved.

Hearing Yu Yang's words, Su Qinwei was even more convinced that Yin Tian was a swindler, "You see, you charlatan, coming here to deceive my grandpa!"

Yin Tian did not argue, but instead watched Yu Yang as he was preparing to insert needles into Old Patriarch Su.

"If you are planning to pierce the Si Shen Cong, Shen Ting, and Ben Shen acupoints, I advise you to stop," he said.

Yu Yang's expression hardened as he turned his head to look at Yin Tian.

Yin Tian took a step forward, "Old Mr. Su's illness is in a critical stage; rashly stimulating these acupoints could hasten his death."

"You still want to curse my grandpa at this point!" Su Qinwei clenched her fists, her pretty face turning cold.

Yu Yang scoffed with disdain, "You country doctor pretending to be some divine healer, what do you know about acupuncture?"

As he spoke, the needle in his hand pierced into the top of Old Mr. Su's head.
