Chapter 53 - 53 53 Princess Chu's Buddha Amulet
53: Chapter 53: Princess Chu’s Buddha Amulet 53: Chapter 53: Princess Chu’s Buddha Amulet “Haven’t you been experiencing really bad luck in the past few months?
So weary every day, but the moment you close your eyes, you’re haunted by nightmares?
It’s not that you can’t sleep, but that you don’t dare to sleep,” Qin Han said indifferently, ignoring Ji Chufei’s words.
Ji Chufei’s eyes widened in shock as she looked at Qin Han, for every word he said was true.
Turning around to sit at the consultation desk again, Ji Chufei spoke as if clutching at a lifeline, “Doctor, please, I beg you to treat me, I really can’t take it anymore.”
“Have you brought something with you?” Qin Han asked.
“I…” Ji Chufei stammered, hesitation evident in her voice.
“If you don’t tell me, I can’t treat you.
However, I must tell you that your days are numbered,” Qin Han stated coldly.
“Doctor, I’ll tell, I’ll tell!” Ji Chufei said as she pulled out an amulet from around her neck.
The Thai amulet, a religious cultural artifact formed by Buddhism, is a unique type of Buddhist ornament in Thailand, similar to the Tibetan “Gau” amulet, only typically smaller in size.
It is believed to help ward off disasters, expel evil spirits, turn misfortune into fortune, and improve one’s luck.
The earliest “amulet,” known as Phra Rod, dates back 1,300 years and bears the standard image of Buddha subduing Mara by earth-touching.
The subsequent ones like Soomkor, Pansompan, Nampaya, and Chinnarat, all featured the image of Buddha.
However, the amulet Ji Chufei held was different; it did not bear the image of Buddha but that of a fearsome ghost.
“My luck had always been poor, as you know, in the entertainment industry success depends not only on acting and singing talent but largely on luck.”
“I was never particularly successful until a friend advised me to obtain a Thai amulet to improve my fortune.
After getting the amulet, indeed, my luck changed dramatically.
Every new song became a hit, and every movie I starred in was a box-office success, just when I thought my life was about to peak.”
“Then, the amulet started causing problems.
At first, I just kept having nightmares, where a little boy in the dream told me to return something.
Initially, I didn’t take it seriously.
But afterward…” Ji Chufei said, her face full of terror.
“Later, every time I closed my eyes, I would see that little boy screaming that I had taken his things.
I haven’t been able to sleep for a long time.
I couldn’t go to the hospital; if my personal information leaked and people found out I had this amulet, it would ruin my career.”
“Please, you must save me!”
After hearing Ji Chufei’s story, Qin Han shook his head.
In this world, people do whatever it takes for fame and wealth, even if it means invoking the power of spirits.
Watching Ji Chufei’s pitiful expression, Qin Han said calmly, “Amulets are divided into ‘Yang’ (positive) amulets and ‘Yin’ (ominous) amulets.
Wearing a ‘Yang’ amulet poses no issues as long as your heart remains pure.”
“However, ‘Yin’ amulets are different, as they are consecrated with corpse oil.
The law of cause and effect holds true in Buddhism, whatever benefits you gain from it, you must repay.
If it is continuously worshipped with corpse oil, there would be no problems; but the person who provided you with the amulet did not inform you of this, leading to your current predicament.”
“I really wonder if your friend was helping you or harming you!”
“Shouldn’t this be a case for a geomancer?
Why did you come to a medical center?” Zhang Yalin asked, having heard Qin Han and Ji Chufei discuss the amulet.
Qin Han glanced at Zhang Yalin and replied, “Since ancient times, the art of medicine and geomancy were not separate.
Geomancy alters a person’s energy field, similarly, medical practice can also use a person’s energy field to treat diseases.”
Zhang Henian nodded upon hearing this and said to Zhang Yalin, “Exactly, that’s why a doctor proficient in medical skills is also well-versed in geomancy.
I’ve always told you to study traditional Chinese medicine, but you never listen; how can modern Western medicine compare to the wisdom handed down by our ancestors?”
“Negative energy has entered your body, and bad luck haunts you,” Qin Han stated calmly.
“Doctor, what should I do?
I’m only twenty-four, I don’t want to die,” Ji Chufei said with tears streaming down her face.
“Here with me, you won’t die.
It’s just that the treatment will be somewhat troublesome,” Qin Han said, frowning.
“Is it because of money?
As long as I can be cured, any amount of money is manageable!” Ji Chufei hastily said, having heard Qin Han mention troubles.
Qin Han looked at Ji Chufei and said, “It’s not about money, it’s…”
“What is it?
Doctor, please tell me!” Ji Chufei asked anxiously when Qin Han paused.
“You need to take off your clothes!”
“All of them?”
“All of them!”
“Ah?” Everyone in the clinic had different expressions.
Ji Chufei was Zhang Yalin’s idol.
The moment she heard that Ji Chufei needed to undress, she was the first to step forward.
“Hey!
You’re not trying to take advantage of Ji Chufei, are you?”
Song Yuwei, who had been listening intently, perked up her ears when she heard Zhang Yalin’s words.
She bit her lip lightly, her expression slightly resentful.
After what I said last night, he was just like a log, and now he wants to see Ji Chufei’s body?
Do I really have no appeal anymore?
“Yalin, don’t talk nonsense!” Zhang Henian scolded her, he trusted Qin Han’s character, Qin Han was definitely not a lecher.
Although Ji Chufei had mixed in the entertainment industry, she had always kept herself pure, even refusing to do kissing scenes in movies.
Hesitant about taking off her clothes, she thought about her situation every night and finally made up her mind.
“Please, Divine Doctor, treat me!”
Qin Han glanced at Zhang Yalin and said irritably, “Am I that despicable in your eyes?”
“Hmph!” Zhang Yalin snorted.
Though she didn’t speak, her face said it all.
Qin Han looked up at Song Yuwei and noticed she was paying attention to the situation, her face showing a look of grievance, which made Qin Han both want to laugh and cry.
“Go prepare a private room!” Qin Han instructed Zhang Yalin.
“Still saying you’re not taking advantage, and now you want a private room!” Zhang Yalin said huffily.
“Hang a sheer curtain over the door, it doesn’t need to be too transparent!” Qin Han glanced at Zhang Yalin and said irritably.
“Ah?
A curtain, you… you’re not going in?” Zhang Yalin was so flustered by Qin Han that she was momentarily confused.
“What would I go in for?
Hurry up!”
“Oh, okay!”
After a moment, Zhang Yalin had prepared the private room and the curtain.
Qin Han asked Ji Chufei to enter the private room and let the curtain fall.
He himself stood outside the door while Zhang Henian and Zhang Yalin followed behind Qin Han.
Zhang Henian was there to see how Qin Han would treat the illness, and Zhang Yalin simply did not trust Qin Han.
Song Yuwei, like Zhang Yalin, was also worried.
Initially, she had been relieved to hear about the curtain, thinking she had misunderstood him.
But after all, it was just a curtain, so she also followed them inside.
Qin Han smiled, seeing through Song Yuwei’s cautious thoughts, but he said nothing.
He said to Ji Chufei inside the room, “You can remove your clothes now!
Then turn towards the curtain.”
Although Ji Chufei felt a bit shy, seeing only the vague shadows of people outside through the curtain, she set her mind at ease and gently took off her top, turning to face the curtain.
However, even though she knew that Qin Han outside couldn’t see her clearly, just having a curtain between them still made Ji Chufei’s face flush.
