    Self-recommendation for my new book! The early plot isn't very developed and might be a bit dull. Things will change after chapter 50! 🤭🤭 Single female lead, no harem, the protagonist is honest, not arrogant, doesn't attract hatred, and only responds to attacks when attacked. No system, but has a cheat ability!! 🤭🤭🤭😎🍉

    My personal masterpiece [you should savor it] 💕 Lin Mo, a young boy from a mountain village, accidentally stumbles into a mysterious cave on a stormy night, encountering the near-death genius Xuan Weizi and inheriting the forbidden "Thirteen Ghost Needles." From then on, his silver needles determine life and death and connect the underworld, but this also attracts backlash and covetousness from various parties! 🐺 He leaves the mountain with a mysterious wolf cub named "Howling Moon," stepping from his secluded village into a turbulent world. His medical practice attracts the attention of powerful forces, and his search for his origins uncovers the ultimate secret of the "Ghost Gate"—connecting the yin and yang realms. Every acupuncture session involves risking his lifespan—it's so thrilling! From the mountain village to the prefecture, from the Imperial Hospital to secret realms and otherworldly realms, Lin Mo uses needles as weapons and medicine as a path to enlightenment. He struggles and grows in the vortex of saving others and saving himself, amidst rules and emotions. The clash between inheritance and responsibility, life and death and taboos—every chapter is high-energy! 📖 Currently serialized up to chapter 58, the pace is incredibly fast, with one foreshadowing after another, the author's writing is solid, the suspense is palpable, and the fusion of martial arts and metaphysics is superb.
