In the early morning, Ye Feiyang hummed a tune as he walked down the path for his job interview.

"Ah."

Suddenly, Ye Feiyang felt something hit his head, causing a bit of pain.

He reached up and rubbed his head.

'Wow! There's a bit of blood, it looks like it got me pretty good!

But where did this thing come from?

Ye Feiyang raised his head and looked around, but there was nothing out of the ordinary.

No, that's strange…

Ye Feiyang picked up the mysterious object that had tumbled from his head to the ground and scrutinized it.

It was a card, kinda like a playing card. The face was especially similar to the joker cards in a deck of cards. The most noticeable difference was that in the center of the card, there was a pattern resembling a QR code.

As for the material of the card, it was completely different from regular ones. It had a heavy feel in his hand and looked glimmering, somewhat like gold, but also not quite. It was hard to distinguish exactly what it was.

Ye Feiyang was certain, he had never seen this kind of card before.

This card looked pretty great, but no matter how Ye Feiyang examined it, he couldn't figure out what its purpose was.

Suddenly, Ye Feiyang had a brainwave. Could scanning the QR code reveal its function?

Without hesitation, Ye Feiyang took out his phone and started scanning the QR code on the card.

But no matter how much he searched, there was no response at all.

What's going on?

Well, forget it, better get to my job interview first and research about it later.

...

At the crossroad.

Red light — Yellow light — Green light...

"Let's go..." Ye Feiyang whistled and quickly strode across the zebra crossing to the other side of the road.

"Clip-clop, clip-clop, clip-clop!"

Looking left, Ye Feiyang saw a cheeky-looking little girl around thirteen or fourteen years old running ahead of him.

Just a normal event, Ye Feiyang didn't pay any mind.

"Sqeeeeak"

All of a sudden, Ye Feiyang heard a sudden braking sound. An Audi car, which should have stopped on the carriageway, was rushing towards the zebra crossing.

The driver of the car was apparently on a call while driving, and he didn't notice that he had run the red light, upon realizing it, he immediately applied emergency brakes.

But at crucial moments, emergency brakes might not work!

Watching as the little girl running ahead was about to be hit, without a second thought, Ye Feiyang ran after her, hoping to pull her out of the way.

"Ah!"

Ye Feiyang suddenly felt that his body was no longer under his control, and in an instant, he hurled towards the right front.

Damn! I've been hit by a car...

After a noise, Ye Feiyang lost consciousness.

At the same time, there was another crisp sound. The little girl didn't escape either, she was slightly hit by the car too and hurled towards the flower bed on the right.

Immediately, the scene turned into chaos...

The Audi driver seized the moment when everyone was still in shock, stomped on the accelerator, and sped away.

The little girl's mother and grandfather, who were walking behind, saw the girl being hit by the car, and they swiftly rushed over.

...

One could not tell how much time had passed, maybe a second, maybe a minute, maybe... Ye Feiyang woke up.

When he stood up, Ye Feiyang realized that his head was a bit dizzy.

Involuntarily, Ye Feiyang pressed his hand to his head.

Eh? Why is my hand sticky?

Ye Feiyang took a look, and his hand was full of blood...

Damn, saving a person and getting hit by a car and injured, where's the justice in that?

"In such a brief period, I have been injured twice. Isn't this the epitome of bad luck?"

Following that, Ye Feiyang reached into his pocket for a tissue, intending to clean the blood from his head and his hands.

What he pulled out, though, wasn't a tissue, but the card that had previously struck his head.

Due to the presence of blood on his hands, the card was smeared with blood all over, especially over the QR code where blood had completely obscured it.

When Ye Feiyang attempted to put the card back into his pocket, the card gradually turned transparent before vanishing entirely.

Eh? Ye Feiyang widened his eyes in surprise, momentarily speechless...

Immediately, a mechanical-like voice echoed within his mind.

"Universal Card System binding host Ye Feiyang."

"Activating Universal Card System."

"As the host is a novice, a special novice reward is issued. Activating the first Universal Card."

"Universal Card Number One: Master of Traditional Chinese Medicine."

"By completing the required task, the second Universal Card can be activated."

"The first task of the Master of Traditional Chinese Medicine Card: Provide first aid to the little girl involved in a car accident, saving her from a life-threatening situation."

"Failure in accomplishing the task means revoking the Traditional Chinese Medicine skills endowed to the host by the Universal Card System."

"......"

At this moment, Ye Feiyang was utterly dumbfounded. He seemed to forget that he still needed to attend a job interview at the company across the street, standing in place without moving. What on earth was happening?

Ye Feiyang slapped his face and pinched his thigh.

Ouch! This was certainly not a dream, nor had he entered the gates of the underworld. Ye Feiyang was sure of it.

It was like seeing a ghost!

A universal card system? Universal cards? What on earth was going on?

Suddenly, Ye Feiyang's eyes lit up. This was like having a golden finger

a term for gaining an advantage

!

As a young person today, it's quite normal to have a golden finger.

Don't believe me?

Just take a trip to Mars. Golden fingers are everywhere!

Reflecting carefully on the voice he just heard in his mind, Ye Feiyang quickly realized that there were a stack of thick cards in his mind. The pattern on the cards' surface was exactly the same as the one that had hit him earlier. The words "universal card" were circled in gold and shone brightly.

In the bottom right corner of the golden letters spelling out "universal card," there was also the phrase "2119 AD".

Holy cow! Can this be true?

Ye Feiyang exclaimed in surprise. Could this universal card be a product from the year 2119, a product from 100 years into the future?

Don't scare me!

Following Ye Feiyang's thoughts, the universal card automatically flipped to the first card: Full Mastery of Traditional Chinese Medicine.

Beneath the title "All-Encompassing Traditional Chinese Medicine", it was a bounty of knowledge, wonderfully combined of visuals and text, covering every aspect of traditional Chinese medicine.

Acupuncture, massage, prescriptions... it had everything.

Furthermore, an explanation within the card specified that this 'All-Encompassing Traditional Chinese Medicine' included a synthesis of all the TCM knowledge up to the year 2119.

As Ye Feiyang carefully read the text, the font suddenly enlarged, and instantaneously disappeared into his mind, remembered with a mere glance.

Is this really happening or is all this a dream? Ye Feiyang pinched his thigh again to reaffirm reality.

Ouch! Apparently, this was not a dream!

...

"Xuanxuan, Xuanxuan"

A shrill and frantic voice pulled Ye Feiyang's consciousness out of the omnipotent card system.

A little girl was lying unconscious by a flower bed not far away, with blood continuously streaming from her head.

Her mother, Zhou Meiyu, was shaking her arms, crying out loud.

Behind them stood Xuanxuan's grandfather, Tong Yuanhao, his face revealing a hint of anxiety, yet remained calm, took out his phone and went somewhere quieter to make a call.

Seeing Zhou Meiyu's heart-wrenching anguish, Ye Feiyang heaved a sigh. How serious was the little girl's injury?

That's right, the first mission of the All-Encompassing Traditional Chinese Medicine card was to save the little girl from the brink of death due to a car accident.

But how? He was not a doctor. The best way, of course, was to call the police, but someone had already done that.

What should he do? He must do something!
