The Imperial Medical Bureau uses needles at a dozen points and prescribes dozens of ingredients. They can treat a cough and wheezing so badly that the patient nearly dies!
Ye Qiao does the opposite: one primary point, one supporting point, and needles placed in harmony with the seasons. Two needles decide life and death; fewer needles outperform a full treatment!
He was born with a blue mark in his palm. The instant his fingertip touches the skin, he can pinpoint the root of the illness. No pulse-taking, no questions, one touch is all it takes!
He created the Twenty-Four Solar Terms Divine Needles: soothe the liver at the spring equinox, purge fire at the summer solstice, astringe the lungs at the autumn equinox, and strengthen the vital essence at the winter solstice. The cycles of heaven and earth are his unique needling method!
Other doctors wear brocade robes, sit in grand halls, and put on airs;
He goes barefoot, dressed in plain clothes, and sets up a street stall, specializing in incurable diseases the Imperial Physicians have given up on!
He saves an old man suffering from breathlessness and fainting, bringing him back to life with two needles and astonishing the whole street;
He challenges the head physician of the Imperial Medical Bureau, crushing orthodox doctors with his minimalist needling technique and publicly humiliating the powerful;
Strange illnesses in the imperial palace, stubborn poisons, and rampant epidemics: for every incurable disease that leaves famed doctors shaking their heads, one stroke of his silver needle brings immediate results!
Bai Zhi is beautiful and knows every herb, with an unparalleled ability to identify medicines by scent. Yet she is afraid of needles and follows him with complete devotion, becoming his perfect partner in the arts of needling and medicine!
Qin Yue is proud and coldly handsome, and fiercely upholds the Imperial Medical Bureau's rules. He calls Ye Qiao an unorthodox charlatan and his methods heretical, until he sees for himself how Ye Qiao uses the solar terms to turn yin and yang and determine the world's fate with a single needle. He falls to his knees and changes his tune on the spot:
“Sir, you are the true master of medicine!”
Bare feet carry him across the world, a blue mark diagnoses countless diseases, and a set of solar-term needles brings medicine to perfection and determines the fate of all!
He treats no powerful families, only the common people; he covets no nobility, only keeps to a heart of compassion!
In this life, he will take the wildest path and forge the most miraculous legend in medicine!
