Medical student Cen Xu died one day and transmigrated to a small village in the Ariege region in 1340. Looking at his empty granary, his straw bed, and the little dress he was wearing, he realized there were three problems:
First, he was an 18-year-old boy dressed as a girl.
Second, he was a "witch doctor," and one wrong move could land him at the stake.
Third, he gained magical powers by making a pact with the devil...
Cen Xu: Oh, thank you so much.
*
As a witch doctor, Cen Xu decided to improve his life by starting with medicine.
Turquoise can cure epilepsy?
The four humors theory never works?
Feeling ill? Just pray?
He would open the door to science in the dark Middle Ages, and lead the dawn of medicine. Nobles and villagers alike all praised the results of his treatment!
After all those lofty ambitions, that very night, the handsome and dashing Mr. Devil came knocking at his door in the dead of night, a rose between his teeth. "My darling, our date tonight..."
Looking at Cen Ji dissecting a corpse, Mr. Devil got pricked in the mouth by his rose for the first time.
*
This is the twilight of the Renaissance, the splendor of the Middle Ages, and the prelude to the Black Death.

One-on-one, sc, happy ending
