The Great Doctor Girl

As the night deepened, I lay on the bed in the medical hall, trying to calm my mind and breathe, trying to regulate my breathing and restore my internal energy. After this long night, my internal energy finally improved slightly, but in the face of the strange and unpredictable Seventy-Two Nail Formation, this little power was still insignificant.

I knew full well that this was no Feng Shui situation that I could easily break on my own. If I wasn't fully prepared and acted rashly, not only would I fail, I might even lose my life.

The next morning, I woke up early and simply packed my clothes. At this point, I knew the most urgent thing was to investigate the situation thoroughly and find the key to breaking the deadlock.

"Luo Shu, how's your recovery going?" Huang Junze's voice came from outside the door, a subtle hint of worry in it. The concern in his eyes actually moved my heart.

"Almost there." I nodded gently. "But breaking this Wind and Thunder Seventy-Two Nail Formation is definitely not something that can be done in a short period of time. We need to conduct a more in-depth investigation."

Huang Junze's expression grew more serious after hearing this, and he slowly said, "I've sent people to investigate the development of this place in recent years to see what conspiracy is hidden behind this."

"Okay, I'm afraid this isn't just a matter of ordinary business competition." I sighed deeply. "This formation is a dragon trap. If my guess is correct, its ultimate goal isn't just to lock the dragon veins here, but to completely devour their power and seal off the surrounding luck. But who set up this formation, and for what purpose? Such a large-scale operation is probably not just aimed at you."

Huang Junze was shocked when he heard this. "What exactly is going on? We'll analyze it after the investigation results come out."

I frowned and said seriously, "Junze, please help me collect the layout of your entire project. The scope should be from the center of the project to the surrounding 500 acres of land."

"Okay." Huang Junze assigned the task without hesitation after just one phone call.

"Breaking the formation will not only require a significant amount of time and effort, but will also require the assistance of external forces. Today, I will personally search for some important items needed to break the formation. Once the investigation results are in, I will then decide on the next steps."

"I'll go with you." Huang Junze said immediately, his tone firm and unquestionable.

"Your company must have a lot of things to deal with, right?" I asked after a moment of hesitation.

"The company's operations have long been on track, and they can continue to operate normally even without me. Nothing is more important than this right now."

I nodded in agreement. After all, facing this unknown danger, I really didn't want to face it alone. Perhaps, with him by my side, I could feel more secure.

In this way, we arrived at the foot of Canglan Mountain in silence, and then climbed up the stone steps step by step.

"Are you going to Tianji Dao Pavilion?" Huang Junze asked with a little confusion.

"That's right. There is the magic weapon I urgently need. If I can get it, there will be hope of breaking the Seventy-Two Nail Formation." I answered firmly.

Lingxiu Peak, towering into the clouds, stands proudly above this mysterious land. The Tianji Taoist Pavilion stands at the peak, 2000 meters above sea level, like a dazzling pearl set between heaven and earth.

Tianji Dao Pavilion, a sacred place steeped in over 2,600 years of history, is said to have been visited by Laozi, the founder of Taoism, in ancient times. He was captivated by the spiritual energy of Lingxiu Peak and stopped to lecture and discuss the Dao. Since then, it has become a sacred site for Taoist practitioners. Throughout the ages, countless renowned Taoists have devoted themselves to cultivation here, carrying on the legacy of Taoist culture. Every brick, tile, blade of grass, and tree here seems to tell a story of ancient mystery.

There was once a Taoist master named Qingxuzi who practiced in seclusion in the Tianji Taoist Pavilion for decades. He eventually realized the great Dao and became a master of his generation.

"Do you think the Tianji Dao Pavilion is really as magical as the legend says?" Huang Junze asked curiously while wiping the sweat from his forehead.

I gazed at the looming mountain ahead, narrowing my eyes slightly, and spoke slowly, "It's rumored that the Tianji Dao Pavilion is located in a treasured land of spiritual energy, steeped in rich history and culture. It must be truly extraordinary and unique. Laozi once lectured and discussed the Dao here, leaving behind an endless legacy of wisdom whose stories are still passed down to this day."

As we climbed, the mountain mist thickened. Wisps of mist, like ethereal spirits of nature, danced lightly through the mountains and forests. Ancient trees towered, their branches curving like dragons. Nourished by the mist, their leaves seemed even more lush and verdant, as if dripping with green juice.

The mountain stream gurgles, its clear, melodious sound like a beautiful piece of music. Shrouded in mist, the stream resembles a silver ribbon, winding its way through the rocks. The flowers and plants by the stream are delicate and charming, their petals adorned with crystal-clear water droplets, like sparkling pearls, shimmering enchantingly in the weak sunlight.

We continued to climb the stairs. Although our steps became heavier, the anticipation in our hearts grew stronger like a burning flame.

Finally, after a long and arduous climb, we saw a corner of the Tianji Dao Pavilion. The flying eaves and brackets were faintly visible in the mist, like a mysterious bridge connecting heaven and earth.

Around the Taoist pavilion, cranes dance gracefully, and their melodious calls echo in the valley, adding a touch of agility and vitality to this tranquil fairyland.

Being here, it feels as if you are instantly away from the hustle and bustle of the world, and your soul is deeply purified and comforted.

Reaching the highest point of the mountain, this ancient Taoist temple came into view. On the ancient and robust door plaque, the four characters "Tianji Daoge" stood out prominently. The door frame looked shabby, and the paint had mostly peeled off.

"The deity enshrined here is the Lord of Thunder, who controls the power of wind and thunder. Perhaps he can use the power of heavenly thunder to help us break the Seventy-Two Nail Formation." I explained patiently to Huang Junze.

Huang Junze looked at the towering ancient trees in the Taoist temple and nodded thoughtfully.

As we entered the temple, we were stopped by a Taoist priest. His expression was solemn, his gaze piercing, "My two benefactors, this is a place for practicing Taoism. Outsiders are prohibited."

I hurriedly stepped forward, bowed slightly, and said respectfully, "Master Yiyun, I am a descendant of a medical family and Mr. Ping's last disciple. I have come to break the evil formation that has trapped the dragon vein. Please help me."

The Taoist priest stared at me for a moment, a glint of insight flashing in his eyes: "Mr. Ping!... Since you are trying to save people, I will not make things difficult for you. Please follow me."

He stopped when he reached a quiet room inside.

He turned around and looked at us and said, "You two clearly have the power to break the formation, but you don't know how to use it."

"Master Yiyun, what do you mean?" My bright eyes kept flashing, full of confusion.

"Well, well. The time is not right yet." Taoist Yiyun continued helplessly.

"From the looks of you two, I can see that although you both have the will to break the formation, I'm afraid it will be difficult for you to unite your efforts."

"To obtain the Chaos Spirit Pearl, the magical instrument that can break the Seventy-Two Nail Formation, one must pass numerous tests. If there is any disagreement during the tests, the Spirit Pearl will not appear."

Huang Junze and I looked at each other, both with a hint of doubt in our hearts, but in order to break the formation, we nodded firmly.

Taoist Master Yiyun flicked his whisk and led us into the depths of the Taoist temple.

The first test took place in a tranquil bamboo forest. Taoist Master Yiyun pointed to a towering bamboo and said, "This bamboo is called the 'Quiet Heart Bamboo.' You must sit quietly and meditate beneath it, clearing your mind of distractions, until you can hear the sound of the bamboo leaves resonate with your inner voice."

Huang Junze and I sat down as he said, closed our eyes, and tried to calm ourselves down.

However, as time passed, Huang Junze's mind kept replaying the various difficult scenes of breaking through the formation, and a sense of urgency gradually surged in his heart. I seemed to be troubled by some irrelevant thoughts, and the atmosphere between us became subtle and tense.

Suddenly, a gentle breeze rustled the bamboo leaves. I tried to listen to the sound, but I couldn't calm my mind. Huang Junze also opened his eyes, and our gazes met, and we instantly felt each other's distracting thoughts.

"Why are you so anxious?" I asked with a frown, a hint of dissatisfaction in my tone.

"If this formation is not eliminated, there will be endless troubles. I just want to break it as soon as possible." Huang Junze responded, his voice full of anxiety.

"But your eagerness will only make it impossible for us to pass the test and obtain the Chaos Spirit Pearl." I retorted, feeling no less anxious than he was.

Our argument became more and more heated, and our voices became louder and louder, as if we had forgotten where we were.

At this moment, Taoist Master Yiyun's voice rang out like a bell: "If the two of you cannot put aside your distracting thoughts and unite as one, the Chaos Spirit Pearl will not appear."

Huang Junze and I finally woke up from our dream and realized our mistake. We were silent for a moment, then took a deep breath at the same time, closed our eyes again, and tried to calm ourselves down.

This time, we let go of all distractions and focused on listening to the sounds of the bamboo leaves. Gradually, we seemed to become one with the bamboo forest, and the crisp sounds of the bamboo leaves resonated with the voice of our hearts.

At the same time, we heard a voice that sounded like "Wind and thunder, break the evil formation." Like a mysterious signal, it instantly triggered a button in us, filling us with a strong sense of mission and determination, further solidifying our resolve to break the Seventy-Two Nail Formation.

When we opened our eyes, Taoist Master Yiyun nodded slightly and led us to the next test...
