    The first book is about a Taoist doctor. The protagonist, originally a traditional Chinese medicine practitioner, struggles to find a job and stumbles upon a Taoist doctor's clinic, where he meets his master. It's a story of dual cultivation between Taoism and medicine—super realistic, definitely worth a read! The second book is about a pure Taoist priest leveling up and defeating monsters—a modern story with elements of the underworld, immortals, and past lives... The male lead has many romantic entanglements; it's a male-oriented novel, written in the first person, with simple and humorous descriptions, a wildly imaginative plot, and will broaden your horizons! The third book is by a real Taoist!
