Time Travel: The Best Doctor in Ancient Times

Chapter 1130: Chapter 799: Beauty Sai Shares All She Knows

As time flew by, evening descended, and the people seeking wine in front of the Guo Residence gradually dispersed.

Those who got the Guo Family Huadiao Wine were pleased with themselves, while those who didn’t lost interest. In any case, their moods varied.

However, none of this concerned the people inside the Guo Residence.

At dinner time, Gu Changsheng, who had ceased fasting, appeared at the Guo family’s dining table. Despite today’s lucrative opening of the wine cellar, this dinner was much more sumptuous than the past couple of days.

With Elder Guo and Guo Luo eagerly urging her to eat, their attentive attitude made Gu Changsheng a bit uneasy, and she couldn’t help but glance at Zhou Mu.

Why did it feel like the father and son from the Guo Family were looking at her as if they were cats eyeing fish?

Sparkling eyes!

But perhaps this is just their way of hospitality?

Gu Changsheng shrugged, then focused on eating heartily, and in between, she glanced at Guo Luo, still looking disheveled like a pighead. She frowned slightly and asked, ”Didn’t you apply the medicine I gave you? Why do you still look like this?”

This shouldn’t be the case!

She personally crafted the medicine and had a pretty good sense of its efficacy. While it might not be instantly effective, surely, after half a day, the swelling should have gone down. Why did Guo Luo’s face still bear evidence of Zhou Mu’s master-abuse?

”Huh? No, no! Oh no! I refused to use it! What’s this, a minor injury, no big deal. We’re not young girls who need to look good to find husbands. A real man, with a few scars, looks even more manly!” Guo Luo snapped back to his senses and quickly spoke up. He then stood solemnly from the table, cupped his hands toward Gu Changsheng, and said, ”Guo Luo acknowledges the gratitude for sister-in-law’s medicinal gift!”

”Guo Rong also acknowledges the young lady’s medicinal gift!” Elder Guo stood up and expressed his gratitude.

”Uh...” Gu Changsheng was left baffled by their serious expressions of gratitude, feeling somewhat guilty as she touched her nose awkwardly and said, ”It’s not some priceless elixir, is it really worth such thanks?”

Well, considering Beauty Sai’s acquaintance with her, meeting an old friend in a foreign land can be considered a stroke of fate!

”Alright! I accept your thanks!” Gu Changsheng thought for a moment, then waved her hand nonchalantly, ”During the time I spend regulating my internal breath in the next few days, I’ll also make some commonly used pills for you just in case... um... just consider it a gift for your unborn children and a token of appreciation for your hospitality these days!”

Admittedly, giving pills to children as a gift might seem a bit inappropriate, but the medicine personally crafted by Gu Changsheng is already hard to come by, isn’t it?

Especially since, as the descendent of the Southern Emperor, there are fewer and fewer people qualified to request her medication nowadays.

Thinking about it, she truly misses her days of sitting in the clinic offering free consultations in Liuzhou City!

Life was simple and carefree back then, though those days are now gone forever!

Upon hearing this, Elder Guo and Guo Luo’s faces lit up with joy. Before they could open their mouths, Beauty Sai’s voice, muffled with food, chimed in, ”Sister-in-law, who gives pills to children as a gift? This won’t do, pick something else!”

”...” Gu Changsheng was speechless and her hand holding the chopsticks froze a bit.

That Beauty Sai is such a fool!

Typical case of getting a good deal and still complaining!

The father and son of the Guo Family thought the same way in their hearts. Even though Beauty Sai belonged to their family, her lack of foresight was quite glaring!

Even if she didn’t say it, didn’t this wife of theirs hear the young lady say that when she offered them medicine, it was in a manner akin to bestowing a favor?

Without absolute confidence, how could she maintain such composure?

This clearly indicated that the young lady’s rarest offering was indeed her medicine!

”Young lady, my daughter-in-law spoke without thinking, please don’t take it to heart. The Guo family will remember the young lady’s gift of medicine dearly!” Elder Guo said with a face full of embarrassment.

Gu Changsheng rolled her eyes, ”I won’t bother with foolish pregnant women. Besides, she hasn’t been foolish just for a day or two...”

She wasn’t petty enough to argue with a pregnant woman.

Moreover, as for Beauty Sai, even if she’s overly straightforward, her heart is genuinely good!

Gu Changsheng actually quite likes genuine and straightforward people like this!

Because interacting with such a simple person doesn’t tire the mind!

The meal was enjoyed by both the host and guests, except there was no fine wine!

After finding out why there was no fine wine at the Guo Family’s table, Gu Changsheng couldn’t help but give her own evildoer a look. This man, afraid of not making a big enough fool of himself, would do anything!

How could he abuse his power to impose a prohibition on alcohol in a family famed for winemaking?

Thick-skinned! Really thick-skinned!

This made the entire Guo Family, young and old, look at her in a strange way!

It’s likely that everyone now knows about her misbehavior after drinking and her poor drinking manners!

How disgraceful!

Utterly disgraceful!

After the meal, Gu Changsheng sipped her tea with a bit of awkwardness, listening to Zhou Mu share some tips on regulating internal breath. The three members of the Guo Family would occasionally chime in, sharing their own methods of practicing martial arts with her.

”Sister-in-law, us women who practice martial arts are actually different from men,” Beauty Sai, though somewhat unreliable, proved quite dependable when it mattered. After listening for a while, she spoke firmly. ”To be honest, I’m from the Wind Cloud Mountain Villa and was raised by the previous Manor Master from childhood. The current Manor Master doesn’t practice martial arts; the previous Manor Master transmitted all his Inner Strength to me and my two fellow disciples. Although I appear young, in terms of Inner Strength, I am not inferior to the father-in-law. The transmission of power defies the Heavenly Dao, and surviving the perilous process is not all; the ability to harness it afterward is of utmost importance. As a fellow woman, let me tell you...”

Beauty Sai, while speaking to Gu Changsheng, detailed some specific methods for women cultivating their abilities, even offering demonstrations when Gu Changsheng seemed confused.

Gu Changsheng, noticing her unusually large belly, quickly stopped her.

This wasn’t the time for Beauty Sai to use her Inner Strength!

Gu Changsheng couldn’t allow her to take such risks to help her.

Beauty Sai, without holding back, explained more thoroughly.

Wind Cloud Mountain Villa has stood strong in the Itinerant World for over a thousand years, with foundations far beyond what outsiders imagine.

Beauty Sai’s impartation of this female-specific method for regulating Inner Strength was extremely targeted, drawing even Zhou Mu’s interest.

The so-called expertise in specific fields, he and Yue Xilou had previously given some advice to Chang Shou on regulating Inner Strength, but they, after all, were men; the methods for men and women differ, especially as this isn’t just cultivation but involves integrating the Inner Strength gained through power transmission.

At first, upon receiving the Inner Strength, Chang Shou indeed absorbed some usable amounts, but what she possesses is the lifetime Inner Strength of over ten Elders from the Phoenix Imperial Clan of the Southern Border. How vast is that? Even with Gu Changsheng’s extraordinary talent, she couldn’t fully utilize it!

”Sister-in-law, the act of power transmission is fraught with peril, and in the Itinerant World, there are few who dare to attempt it successfully. My method was left by a female predecessor of the Wind Cloud Mountain Villa centuries ago. Her master and master’s wife transmitted their lifetime skills to her, which she spent her life fully integrating into herself, and then passed down this specific method, perfectly suited for you!” Beauty Sai instructed Gu Changsheng in a simple routine of the method as she explained, ”But remember this, you must not be greedy or rushed; only by letting things take their natural course can you achieve more with less. Sister-in-law, by not fully integrating the transmitted Inner Strength into yourself yet still achieving such profound martial arts, you are already a rarity in a hundred years, with few rivals in the Itinerant World, so you mustn’t be overly greedy; remain patient and draw it out slowly...”

”Mm!” Gu Changsheng smiled at Beauty Sai, nodding.

”Today’s guidance from elder sister, Shui Mu will remember,” Zhou Mu also cupped his fist towards Beauty Sai, speaking earnestly.

Even he didn’t expect that this seemingly carefree Beauty Sai would possess such a rare cultivation technique and even less expected her to selflessly share it with his wife’s family, making Zhou Mu regard her in a new light.

”There’s no need for all this gratitude and thanks! To achieve the feat of power transmission and succeed is a rare occurrence once in a hundred years in the Itinerant World. If you were not disciples of hidden masters, you’d already be well-known, only unwilling to reveal your true face to others!” Beauty Sai said with a laugh, patting her large belly, a trace of the free-spirited daughter of the Itinerant World emerging on her swollen, pregnant face. ”Our Wind Cloud Mountain Villa makes friends with heroes from all over the world, regardless of origin or morality. The Way is unchanging, and meeting is fated, so let’s not mention these formalities!”

”Haha... if that’s the case, then I will graciously accept! The guidance you’ve given today, I have noted, and when I meet Liu Fengyun, I’ll certainly convey my thanks in person!” Hearing this, Gu Changsheng burst into laughter.

She could clearly feel, after just a moment of practicing the method taught by Beauty Sai, that the Internal Breath within her, once like an ocean, now had become traceable!

In the past, to use this Internal Breath, she had to gather it into one place and release it, but now, she could vaguely feel it seeping into different parts of her body like flowing water.

In the battle at Hengtang Lake, her brow’s seal was unlocked, granting her this immense Internal Breath, but except for the initial explosion of world-shaking power during the battle, afterward, she could only mobilize a portion and couldn’t unleash it all!

Even being able to integrate and circulate a fraction had caused Yue Xilou to be astounded, perceiving it as the work of someone extraordinary!

Who would have thought that on this Northern journey, despite her apprehension, through dedicated focus, she would attain such a gain here with Beauty Sai!

The lifetime skills of over ten Elders from the Phoenix Imperial Clan, what does that signify? Southern Border Miao women, serving the Gu, acquire Inner Strength far surpassing those who practice martial arts in the Central Plains, not to mention she was born with the lifetime skills of over ten people?
