Chapter 2: Chapter 2 The Beautiful Village Chief
He wasn't sure how long he had been unconscious, but when Ling Feng gradually woke up, he found himself still lying naked in the bathroom, surrounded by darkness, quiet and still.
Ling Feng touched his slightly dizzy head and sat on the bathroom floor in a daze for quite a while before he came to his senses. Recollecting everything before his fainting spell, he realized upon waking up that he had come to understand many principles of medical and pharmacological knowledge, and there was also an ancient book that appeared in his mind.
"Classic of the Divine Farmer?"
Ling Feng murmured to himself as he looked at the ancient book lingering in his Divine Sense. Upon opening it, he discovered it contained numerous formulas for magical elixirs, such as the flesh-regrowing Muscle Genesis Pills and the body-strengthening Exuberant Pill among others, which left Ling Feng astonished.
"Who would have thought the old ancestor left behind such treasures!" Ling Feng was somewhat excited.
However, most of the elixir formulas were only identifiable by their names and effects; the necessary ingredients were unclear, and only some low-level elixir formulas were visible.
Ling Feng knew this was because his cultivation of the Classic of the Divine Farmer was still at a rudimentary level. To concoct more advanced elixirs, he must refine a large quantity of medicinal pills to enhance his cultivation technique.
Having come to understand all this, Ling Feng was bursting with excitement as he crouched in the bathroom, engrossed in research for a long time before finally succumbing to sleepiness and returning to his bed to sleep.
The next day, well after sunrise, Ling Feng was woken up by a frantic knocking at the clinic door.
"Knock knock! Knock, knock, knock!"
"Who is it! Who is it! What's with all the noise, can't a person get some sleep?" His pleasant dream interrupted, Ling Feng was highly annoyed as he begrudgingly got out of bed and pulled on his pants, curious to see which troublesome individual was disturbing his sleep.
As soon as he opened the door, he saw Liu's Aunt from next door.
"What's the matter, Liu's Aunt? Why won't you let people sleep at this early hour?"
"Oh, early? It's already noon! Never mind that, get up quickly. The new village chief is calling a gathering and is asking all the villagers to come. Hurry up, it's at the hall," said Liu's Aunt, not pausing as she turned to notify other villagers.
"What's this now, if it isn't trouble," Ling Feng muttered under his breath in dissatisfaction. He had heard some talk about the village getting a new Village Chief lately, but he hadn't expected the newcomer to throw her weight around like this, calling a meeting right away.
By the time he reached the hall, it was already packed with villagers, buzzing with lively discussions, a scene of great commotion. Ling Feng found a random spot to sit down.
Not long after he took a seat, the new Village Chief entered—an energetic young girl who walked onto the hall's stage.
Seeing the new Village Chief, Ling Feng's sleepiness instantly vanished; he hadn't expected the new chief to be so young, and so beautiful!
The girl standing on the stage had her black hair tied back in a simple ponytail, a white T-shirt adorned her upper body, and she wore a pair of tight-fitting jeans. Her two long, slender legs stood together without a gap, accentuated by a pair of black high heels. Her features were delicate, reminiscent of a doll, and her aura couldn't be more different from that of the village women—filled with youthful confidence and vivacity.
Ling Feng was captivated from below; he had never seen such a beautiful girl before. The slender waist and the curves of her figure made one yearn to grab her tightly and ravish her thoroughly.
"Hello everyone, my name is Li Shiyun, and I am the new Village Chief of Shiliu Village..."
The beautiful female chief began her self-introduction upon taking the stage, with a voice as melodious as music from the heavens.
Below the stage, Ling Feng barely listened to what she was saying, his eyes fixated on Li Shiyun. He realized that since acquiring the Classic of the Divine Farmer, his five senses had been significantly enhanced. He could clearly see Li Shiyun from a distance, and he could even faintly make out the white lingerie she wore underneath her clothes!
Stealing glances at the female Village Chief's lingerie in broad daylight made him feel a surge of blood rushing to his head.
"Assuming the role of Village Chief in Shiliu Village this time, I hope to lead our village towards prosperity..."
Li Shiyun continued to speak fervently, and while she spoke, she walked off the stage and approached the villagers, stopping right beside Ling Feng.
Standing next to Ling Feng, he caught a whiff of an incredibly pleasant fragrance. Turning his head, the pert buttocks wrapped tightly in jeans were right before his eyes, causing Ling Feng's blood to surge again, as he suppressed the urge to reach out and pinch. Looking further up at her perfect figure made Ling Feng's heart skip a beat, and he couldn't help thinking to himself that marrying such a woman would be the ultimate bliss.
Li Shiyun talked for a long time, but Ling Feng hardly listened, his gaze constantly fixed on her, as if he wanted to devour the beautiful woman with his eyes.
After speaking for more than an hour, the meeting ended, and the villagers began to disperse. Ling Yun watched Li Shiyun leave the hall, then he returned to the clinic.
After lunch, while Ling Feng was leaning against the counter digesting his meal, the door to the clinic creaked open, followed by a fragrant breeze. Smelling it, Ling Feng immediately knew who it was, and sure enough, there stood the new female Village Chief, Li Shiyun, at the doorway.
Seeing that it was Li Shiyun, Ling Feng hurriedly dropped his careless demeanor, straightened his clothes, and approached her.
"Is it Village Chief Li? What can I do for you?"
"I'm here to inquire about the health of the villagers. I heard you're the only doctor in the village? How can you be so young?" Li Shiyun glanced at Ling Feng with some surprise. In her mind, those who could be called doctors were generally not young, not looking merely twenty-three or twenty-four like Ling Feng.
"You really are a doctor, how could you be so young?" Li Shiyun still seemed somewhat incredulous as she questioned.
Ling Yun chuckled at her question, "Village Chief Li is jesting. If you can be so young and be the Village Chief, why can't I be a young doctor?"
Li Shiyun was momentarily stunned, a bit annoyed. She really wanted to retort—did this young village medic also have the backing of his own family?—but such words could not be spoken aloud, so she had to swallow her frustration in silence.
Ling Yun saw Li Shiyun fall silent, and was just about to ask if there was anything else she needed when he noticed that she was frowning in pain, with beads of sweat on her forehead, staggering before collapsing to the side, her hands trembling as she fumbled for something on her person.
"Village Chief Li, what's wrong?" Seeing this, Ling Yun quickly went to support Li Shiyun and asked.
"...Medicine...medicine...it's bad."
Li Shiyun clutched her chest while patting her pockets, searching for a long time before remembering that the Medicinal Pills had been left in the car and she hadn't taken them out. Realizing this, Li Shiyun felt a chill; without those pills, she would not be able to suppress the illness in her body.
Li Shiyun had suffered from a strange illness since she was a child, one that defied treatment by any famous doctor she sought. She could only rely on certain medicines to delay her symptoms.
Watching Li Shiyun's movement in search of her medicine, Ling Feng quickly grabbed her hand to take her pulse, and examining her exposed pale neck, he indeed found white lines there. He immediately confirmed that Li Shiyun was suffering from a cold disease!
This ailment was extremely rare, making the body weak when it struck and causing unbearable coldness throughout. The most obvious sign was white threads at the lower abdomen, these fine white threads would wrap around the body and finally converge at the chest.
And when those white threads spread to the chest, it would mark the time of Li Shiyun's death!
