Chapter 1

"Where does it hurt?"

Doctor Xu Xiaoya from the village health station took out a stethoscope and put it on her ears. She asked Wang Xiaoqiang, who was sitting beside her.

"Here, my chest..."

Wang Xiaoqiang pointed to his chest.

Xu Xiaoya placed the stethoscope on the area Wang Xiaoqiang indicated, listened for a while, and frowned slightly: "There's nothing wrong, everything seems normal..."

"Uh... it's not good, it's moving down, it's here now..." Wang Xiaoqiang's face turned red with embarrassment, but to figure out what was causing the trouble inside his body, he pointed to his stomach.

"Ha..." Seeing Wang Xiaoqiang's embarrassed yet serious expression, Xu Xiaoya couldn't help but laugh and said, "What is it... You're not trying to fool me, are you?"

Xu Xiaoya wasn't joking. Since she graduated from the medical school and started practicing in Sanmiao Village, this city girl often faced harassment from the village boys. However, the village had a simple and honest culture, and even the harassment was very subtle, such as pretending to be sick to get Xu Xiaoya to treat them, just to get a few more looks and a few more words with her.

Wang Xiaoqiang's behavior at this moment really seemed like he was making something up, but Xu Xiaoya, who had more education and was more cultivated, didn't show any disgust. She still cooperated and placed the stethoscope on Wang Xiaoqiang's stomach. Her slender, white fingers touched his stomach, and even though there was a layer of underwear, it still made this young man shiver and his breathing quicken.

Xu Xiaoya listened carefully, then lifted her beautiful big eyes and stared at Wang Xiaoqiang: "There's really nothing wrong. I think you're being overly suspicious..."

"Doctor Xu, I'm not lying, it's here..." Wang Xiaoqiang defended himself, but suddenly felt the thing slide down to his lower abdomen, making it warm, which made him even more embarrassed. Wang Xiaoqiang had attended junior high school and knew that hiding an illness could be very harmful. Moreover, there was an unknown object inside his body, and he had just discovered that it could move. Despite his embarrassment, he pointed to his lower abdomen and said seriously to Xu Xiaoya, "Doctor Xu, now it's here..."

Seeing Wang Xiaoqiang point to his lower abdomen, a blush appeared on Xu Xiaoya's beautiful, fair face. If it were another village boy, she might have chased him away. This wasn't a medical examination; it was clearly harassment!

But Wang Xiaoqiang was different. Although they hadn't known each other long, Xu Xiaoya knew that Wang Xiaoqiang was a decent young man. He had attended junior high school and had excellent grades, even getting into a key high school in the county. However, a major incident had left his family poor, and to avoid burdening his elderly parents, he had given up further education and returned to the village to farm. This made Xu Xiaoya respect and admire him.

How could such a hardworking young man harass her?

Thinking this, Xu Xiaoya took a deep breath and placed the stethoscope on Wang Xiaoqiang's lower abdomen. This made her lean forward slightly, and her full, white chest became visible to Wang Xiaoqiang. The snow-white, plump breasts and the deep, alluring cleavage made his blood boil, his heart race, and his breathing quicken.

At that moment, Xu Xiaoya's white, smooth fingers accidentally touched Wang Xiaoqiang's "little brother" below his lower abdomen. Even though it was through his pants, it still made Wang Xiaoqiang feel like he had been electrocuted, and his body shuddered. Wang Xiaoqiang's "little brother," stimulated by Xu Xiaoya's fingers, sprang up like a released spring, pressing against her fingers.

"Ah..." Xu Xiaoya, who had medical training, wasn't as conservative as other girls. When her hand touched Wang Xiaoqiang's "little brother," although her heart raced, she managed to stay calm. But now, Wang Xiaoqiang's sudden reaction made her blush and pull her hand back as if she had been electrocuted.

Wang Xiaoqiang's reaction was even more intense. His face turned red instantly, and his breathing became heavy. To hide his embarrassment, he suddenly stood up from the chair and ran out of the clinic.

In his shame, Wang Xiaoqiang ran all the way to the fields and sat down on a field ridge, panting heavily.

At that moment, he suddenly felt that the "object" that had been in his lower abdomen had moved to his right leg. The recent injury on his leg, which had just healed, started to ache slightly. Now, the unknown "object" had moved to the injured area of his right leg and emitted a cool airflow, like a plaster on an old wound, and the pain quickly subsided.

After a while, the injured area began to warm up, and it no longer hurt. It felt warm and very comfortable.

Hmm?...

Wang Xiaoqiang stared at the old injury on his right leg, stunned. What was happening?

Could the unknown object have such a miraculous effect?

Could it be that I have gained a special ability?

During his junior high school years, Wang Xiaoqiang loved reading web novels. Even though he had dropped out, he still enjoyed reading novels on his phone during his free time. Whenever he read about the main characters gaining special abilities and acquiring wealth, power, and beauty, he would envy them. However, he knew it was all fantasy and couldn't be taken seriously; he could only daydream about it.

But now, with the special ability appearing in his body, he felt both excited and uneasy. After all, novels were novels, and reality was reality; they were two different things.

Just as Wang Xiaoqiang was feeling uneasy, the unknown "object" in his body moved from his right leg to his chest, more precisely, to his heart, where it had been since it entered his body.

Actually, the unknown "object" had entered Wang Xiaoqiang's body the previous evening.

At that time, after a day of plowing the fields, he went to the Eighteen Mile River outside the village to bathe. While his body was submerged in the water, with only his head above the surface, he felt something like an eel enter his chest and slip into his body. At first, Wang Xiaoqiang thought it was a terrifying creature and hurriedly climbed out of the water, touching his chest. However, his skin was intact, with no marks or pain. He just felt an object, about the size of an egg, in his chest.

Wang Xiaoqiang was uneasy all night and didn't sleep. Early the next morning, he quietly went to the village health station. It wasn't until Xu Xiaoya examined him that he realized the "object" could move freely within his body. Now, he also discovered that the object could heal injuries.

To understand the unknown object in his body, Wang Xiaoqiang ran back to the Eighteen Mile River, to the spot where he had bathed the previous evening. It was summer, and the Eighteen Mile River was long and deep, full of fish. In fact, the river was always full of water and fish throughout the year, and the crops along the riverbank grew well. According to the village elders, the Eighteen Mile River remained full year-round because of a large spring at the bottom. The spot where Wang Xiaoqiang had bathed was near this large spring.
