Chapter 3

"Your diagnosis is very strange. Can you really cure it with talismans?" Li Hanyan said coldly.

"Don't believe him. Look at his lecherous eyes. He just wants to take advantage of the situation while treating you!" Zhang Xiaolei said.

"Zhang Xiaolei, don't judge a gentleman by your petty woman's mind. It's because of your suspicion that your menstrual flow is so light and you suffer from severe lower back pain," Jiang Fan said, picking up a newspaper and pretending to be indifferent.

"You, how do you know?!" Zhang Xiaolei exclaimed in surprise, as very few people knew about this.

Jiang Fan ignored them and continued to read the newspaper. Li Hanyan and Zhang Xiaolei stared at Jiang Fan, thinking he was almost a god.

"Hey, you haven't answered my question yet!" Li Hanyan couldn't help but speak up.

Jiang Fan looked up and said to Li Hanyan, "No need for talismans, it can be cured in just a few minutes."

"What, cured in a few minutes?" Li Hanyan couldn't believe her ears!

"Do you want to know the method? I'll tell you."

Jiang Fan stood up, walked to Li Hanyan, and whispered something in her ear.

"Pervert!" Li Hanyan's face turned red, and she slapped Jiang Fan.

Jiang Fan was prepared and caught Li Hanyan's hand, laughing, "Hanyan, be my girlfriend, and I'll guarantee to cure your illness."

"Hmph, you're dreaming!"

Li Hanyan kicked Jiang Fan's crotch with all her might. She had learned karate in the UK and was a fifth-degree black belt. The kick was fast and fierce; any other man would have been hit in the "production area."

Jiang Fan had anticipated Li Hanyan's kick, sidestepped, and Li Hanyan's kick missed. Jiang Fan gently pulled her hand, causing Li Hanyan to lose her balance and fall into his arms.

Jiang Fan took the opportunity to hug Li Hanyan and kissed her small, jelly-like lips. Suddenly, he felt a sharp pain in his lips and pushed Li Hanyan away.

"You're a dog, how can you bite people?!" Jiang Fan covered his bleeding lips.

"You're right, I am a dog, and I specialize in biting perverts!"

Li Hanyan stormed out of the on-duty room, and Zhang Xiaolei glared at Jiang Fan before following her.

Jiang Fan shook his head helplessly, "Damn, the taste was good, but it was a bit too strong. Interesting."

Jiang Fan used his index finger to draw a few strokes on his bleeding lips, and the blood quickly stopped. The wound healed rapidly, leaving no trace on his lips.

"Thick eyebrows, cold and beautiful! Could she be a White Tiger?" Jiang Fan muttered to himself.

He remembered the records in the *Xuandongzi Dragon Tiger Secret Techniques*: "The White Tiger has thick eyebrows, a cold and stern appearance, and an excess of yin over yang, making the *xuan* point barren, hence the name White Tiger. The White Tiger has an extremely strong yin desire, which can only be subdued by the Green Dragon."

Jiang Fan recalled his grandfather's words before he died: "Xiaofan, it's all my fault for not taking good care of you, allowing our enemies to find you and curse you with the Maoshan forbidden spell, the 'Decline and Decay Curse.' Remember, to break this curse, the Green Dragon must meet the White Tiger, and then good fortune will follow. You must keep the *Maoshan Talismans* and the *Xuandongzi Dragon Tiger Secret Techniques* safe. Your parents' lives were lost for these two books. You can only practice the spells in the book after you turn fifteen, remember!"

Later, Jiang Fan found the records about the Maoshan forbidden spell, the 'Decline and Decay Curse,' in the *Maoshan Talismans*: "The Decline and Decay Curse is extremely yin and poisonous. Those who are cursed have a black mark on their vital area, which becomes a barren land. The poison lies in the fact that the cursed person experiences extreme bad luck on the Winter Solstice each year. Each time, the black mark grows, and when it reaches the root, the person will die from complete decay. Only by meeting the White Tiger can the curse be broken, and then good fortune will follow."

After his grandfather's death, the village's old man Meng Shuigen took him in. They lived together for years, and it was the villagers who pooled money to help him pay for his university tuition, and Meng Shuigen sold three old oxen to make up the difference.

Every year on the Winter Solstice, the Decline and Decay Curse would take effect. The first time was when Jiang Fan was six years old. When it took effect, he felt a shock throughout his body, and his lower body became erect, but he felt no other discomfort. On the way to primary school, he accidentally fell off a cliff and broke his leg and ribs.

The second time, when he was seven, he was trampled by a bull while watching a bullfight in the village and was hospitalized for three days.

The third time, when he was eight, he was struck by lightning while taking shelter under a tree during a heavy rain.

Each time the Decline and Decay Curse took effect, Jiang Fan's bad luck increased, though he survived many near-death experiences. The black mark on his vital area gradually grew longer, approaching the root.

Three years ago, he was admitted to the Donghai Medical College. The Decline and Decay Curse took effect three times, and he narrowly escaped death each time, earning him the nickname "Unlucky Egg" among his classmates.

The first time, six people were walking on the street when a billboard fell, and only he was hit.

The second time, the whole class went on a field trip. When crossing a narrow bridge, the bridge broke just as he was the last to cross, and he fell off the cliff. He would have been crushed to death if he hadn't been caught by a tree.

The third time was the most bizarre. One night, Jiang Fan mistakenly entered the women's restroom, causing the girls inside to scream. He fled in panic and was caught by the security guards. Despite his explanations, the school still accused him of improper intentions and gave him a major demerit. How unjust!

Imagine a boy being caught with an erection; wouldn't it seem like he had improper intentions?

From then on, the girls in the school would warn each other when going to the restroom at night: "Be careful of that pervert Jiang Fan!"

Sigh, when a person is unlucky, anything can happen.

Thinking about this, Jiang Fan shook his head and sighed, "When will I meet the White Tiger? If Li Hanyan is the White Tiger, she would be my savior!"

"Stop thinking so much and focus on practicing the Maoshan Heavenly Eye Technique."

Jiang Fan began to meditate and practice the Heavenly Eye Technique, following the instructions in the *Maoshan Talismans*: "The Heavenly Eye Technique is a secret method to open the Heavenly Eye. Once opened, it can see the internal organs and bones of the human body, as well as ghosts and spirits. Advanced practitioners can see the past and the future."

Jiang Fan practiced until dawn before going to bed.

The next morning, Jiang Fan heard a rapid knocking on the door. When he opened it, he was stunned to see Dean Zhao and two police officers.

"Is Li Hanyan reporting me for sexual harassment?" Jiang Fan thought.

"Xiaofan, Director Gao wants to see you. Get ready," Dean Zhao said with a smile.

"Are you Doctor Jiang? Our director has invited you," one of the police officers smiled.
