A renowned ancient physician transmigrates into the body of an abandoned woman, only to be sold off

Amei went to tidy up the house for them, while the village chief's wife cooked downstairs.

Song Zhili and He Miaomiao discussed some other precautions for people in a vegetative state inside the house until the village chief's wife came up to call them down for dinner. Only then did they get up together and walk downstairs.

When Song Zhili came downstairs, she saw that the table was laden with vegetables and meat, a very sumptuous meal. She and He Miaomiao exchanged a glance, feeling a little embarrassed, considering that so many of them had come over and that they had eaten quite a lot every day.

Not knowing how long she would have to stay here, Song Zhili wanted to ask the village chief if she could stay and learn the art of Gu poison.

If they can really stay here to study, they don't necessarily have to stay for long. They can't keep eating the village chief's food forever.

Thinking of this, Song Zhili saw the village chief sitting downstairs. She bypassed He Chengjing and went up to him first, expressing her request.

"Village chief, may I ask you something? I'm quite interested in this Gu poison technique. Can I stay in your village to learn it?"

If the village chief agrees, I'll need your help to find me a reliable craftsman; if not, that's alright too.

The village chief was somewhat surprised to hear Song Zhili's request, after all, the art of Gu poison was not something anyone could learn just by wanting to.

Firstly, this is the only secret in their village, and they won't easily let outsiders learn it. Secondly, learning this Gu poison technique depends on fate.

After all, raising gu is not an easy task.

Seeing the village chief pursing his lips and remaining silent for a long time, Song Zhili wondered if she had been too abrupt, since they had only arrived today and were already making such an unreasonable request.

Song Zhili now feels a little embarrassed when she thinks about it.

She was about to tell the village chief that if it didn't work out, then forget it, but unexpectedly the village chief spoke up slowly.

“I can find someone to teach you, but learning this Gu poison technique is not an easy task. It may be very difficult to learn, and it is not something that can be mastered in a year or two. Miss, you should think carefully before making a decision.”

The village chief voiced his concerns, since the children in their village had been exposed to these things since childhood, and some of them hadn't even mastered them by adulthood.

Song Zhili had never been exposed to these things before, and the village chief was afraid that it was just a passing fancy for her.

When Song Zhili heard that the village chief was willing to find someone to teach her, she was very happy. She had considered what the village chief had said.

It's true that learning this requires talent, just like learning medicine. She can try learning it first, and if it still doesn't work out in the end, then we'll see.

"Alright, then I'll trouble you, Village Chief. How about I stay in your village starting tomorrow? Don't worry, Village Chief, we'll cover all our expenses for food, clothing, lodging, and transportation. If you need anything, I can have our people go out and buy it for you."

The village chief was very pleased to hear Song Zhili say that, although he didn't mind that they ate and stayed at his house.

However, their village is quite unique, as they rarely have contact with the outside world, so they seldom go out to buy things.

Every household in the village owns land, and they don't have to pay taxes on the crops they grow.

Therefore, each household in these areas is basically self-sufficient in the grain they grow.

The local government has no jurisdiction over their village; some officials are even unaware that such a village exists in the forest.

After all, if you enter their village without being led in by someone you know, you will be poisoned by a curse.

Now that so many more mouths to feed are suddenly being fed at their house, their food reserves will probably be gone very soon.

Hearing that Song Zhili was willing to spend money to buy food for them, he naturally did not object and readily agreed.

"Alright, gentlemen, please stay here. Amei has already tidied up the rooms for you. Come on over and have dinner. After dinner, I'll take you to see Granny Li in our village, and she'll teach you the art of Gu poison."

Song Zhili didn't know who this Granny Li was, but when she heard that the village chief would take her to find Granny Li after finishing his meal, she couldn't hide the joy on her face.

She pulled He Chengjing to sit down at the table. The village chief's wife was quite good at cooking, and Song Zhili thought her cooking was delicious.

After dinner, Song Zhili and the village chief rested in the yard for a while, while the village chief's wife, Amei, and Qingshuang helped wash the dishes in the backyard.

After they had finished their business and washed up, the village chief stood up, said a few words to his wife, and then led Song Zhili toward Granny Li's residence.

Amei followed behind them. The village chief had told Amei earlier that she would go with Song Zhili to learn from Granny Li.

That's why he waited in the yard for so long just now.

The three of them had only walked a few steps when the village chief's wife ran up behind them with a food box in her hand.

“Old man, wait a minute. You need to understand. Why did you forget to bring her some food? If you don’t bring her some food, she probably won’t agree to your request.”

The village chief turned his head and saw the food box handed to him by his wife. He then patted his head and realized he had almost forgotten about it.

Grandma Li is the oldest woman in their village. She doesn't have many hobbies, except for enjoying delicious food.

She had no children in her life, and her skill in Gu poison was the most powerful in the village. The Gu she raised was the Gu King of their village.

When Song Zhili mentioned wanting to find a teacher to instruct her, he immediately thought of Granny Li.

However, Granny Li has an eccentric personality, and the village chief is not sure if Granny Li can teach Song Zhili.

He was just thinking of giving it a try, so he took some people to ask first. Actually, the person that Granny Li was interested in was Amuyi, after all, Amuyi's blood was different from that of ordinary people.

In fact, even the Gu King that Granny Li raised would be afraid when it came into contact with Amuyi's blood.

That's why Granny Li wanted to take Amuyi as her apprentice, but the village chief had previously gone to Amuyi's house to ask for his opinion.

When Amuyi heard the village chief's purpose, he wasn't very interested in the Gu poison technique, but the village chief insisted on coming to discuss it in person.

Amuyi couldn't refuse, so he agreed and studied under Granny Li for two years.

However, he lacked talent and only learned the basics after two years of study.

Seeing this, Granny Li stopped pressuring Amuyi and let him go back, never allowing him to return to study again.

Thinking of this, the village chief felt very uneasy and anxious.

Soon the three of them arrived outside Granny Li's yard.

The village chief stepped forward first, pulled the door knocker, and knocked on the door.

After waiting at the door for a while, they heard an old voice coming from inside.

"Who?"
