Time Travel: The Best Doctor in Ancient Times

Chapter 288: Chapter 174: Relying on One’s Appearance to Make a Living_2 Chapter 288: Chapter 174: Relying on One’s Appearance to Make a Living_2 “Pfft!” Why did Gu Changsheng find the spoiled Young Master Zhou Mu in front of him more and more amusing?

Kidnapping a girl seemed as simple as eating from the way he put it.

“Don’t you have any respect for the law?” As the soon-to-be-kidnapped girl, Gu Changsheng very fittingly delivered his line.

If he dared to retort with: “I am the law,” Gu Changsheng would definitely give him a thumbs up.

Because in the Liuzhou Region, Zhou Mu was the law!

“I am the law!” True to form, Zhou Zongbao indeed pointed to himself with a thumb and puffed out his chest proudly as he replied.

Gu Changsheng was instantly speechless.

He had seen bold and reckless people before, but he had never met anyone as daring and reckless as this man. If he knew that Gu Changsheng had just beaten up people from the Capital City, then he must have also seen Zhou Mu and known about her relationship with him. So how could he still be so brash?

“Are you not afraid of Zhou Mu? As far as I know, Liuzhou is his fief. If you said he is the law, that would make sense, but you…” Gu Changsheng sized him up once again, with a flicker of contempt in his eyes.

Zhou Zongbao, who was scorned once more, became even less happy. He flung his treasured saber to the ground, and the gemstone hit the pavement, making a crisp sound that caused Gu Changsheng to cringe!

Dammit, what a waste! This is just too wasteful!

“So what about Zhou Mu? When Zhou Mu meets this young master, I am still THE master! Hmph!”

Upon hearing this, Gu Changsheng painfully rubbed his forehead and looked pleadingly at Han Qiu beside him, “Han Qiu, could this guy be an idiot?”

Han Qiu frowned deeply but shook her head without making a sound.

“Hey! What are you whispering about with that girl? Nothing should be kept secret, you know? Are you bad-mouthing me?” Zhou Zongbao squinted his eyes and pointed at Gu Changsheng, looking like he had caught someone red-handed.

Gu Changsheng shook his head and muttered to himself, “Ah, to think he’s not an idiot, he must be suffering from delusions… That’s really pitiful!”

Zhou Zongbao, who had been eavesdropping, heard it clearly this time and immediately shouted angrily, his brows knitting together, “Who are you calling an idiot? Whom are you talking about?”

“Whoever responds is who I’m talking about.” Gu Changsheng had an innocent face. She hadn’t said anything wrong, so why was he so infuriated?

Trying to scare whom?

“Let me tell you, this young master is very angry! The consequences are severe! I should not get angry! I cannot get angry! Getting angry causes wrinkles! Don’t get angry, don’t get angry…” Zhou Zongbao’s face reddened with rage, his plump lips pouted high.

Gu Changsheng watched the foppish young master, who one moment seemed ready to fight her to the death, and the next he was comforting himself, feeling that her day had become somewhat disillusioned.

It was one thing to run into a slick Eunuch Gui, but to also encounter such a bizarre spoiled noble!

It’s like, odd things happen every year, but this year it’s just too many!

And dammit, they all had to happen to her!

“Hmph! I don’t want to waste time with you. Beauty, will you follow me willingly, or must I bind you and take you with me? Choose one, as I don’t have much time,” Zhou Zongbao said with an impatient wave of his hand, a look of magnanimity on his face.

Gu Changsheng touched her nose, “I think you’d better hurry and find someone else somewhere else. I’m definitely not going with you…”

She was just out for a stroll; she couldn’t possibly let herself end up a caged canary in someone else’s cage!

Zhou Zongbao, upon hearing this, stamped his foot in frustration and bellowed, “Men, bind her! Hurry up, that guy will surely come after sorting out the trouble. Let’s kidnap her and get out of here!”

Gu Changsheng, faced with several martial arts experts suddenly leaping at her, quickly countered, unable to catch the latter half of the command.

Six lean men flew at her simultaneously, and the first move was critical. Caught off guard, Gu Changsheng had to swiftly slide back and retreat.

“Who would have thought, you pillow-headed fop could command such skilled bodyguards!” Gu Changsheng frowned and let out a cold huff.

Impressive, to force her to back off!

These six men were clearly well-trained experts! They were several notches above the assassins Prince Liang had sent before.

Retreating just a step, Gu Changsheng wasted no time and lunged forward.

In a battle between experts, it’s all about seizing the moment and reacting!

Having lost the advantage, they couldn’t even lay a finger on Gu Changsheng; let alone when they were caught off guard by her preemptive strike.

In just one move, two bodyguards were down.

Gu Changsheng had the edge in speed, excelling at close-quarters combat, catching her opponents by surprise!

Kidnapping a girl wasn’t a capital crime; Gu Changsheng didn’t pursue lethal blows, especially considering the noise they made had already drawn a crowd of onlookers. If a life were lost, it might not look so good.

Zhou Mu had just killed over twenty men from the Capital City on her behalf; if she were to take a life with her own hands, then word would get out that she was a bloodthirsty, homicidal maniac!

Her hands never stopping, Gu Changsheng dodged the attacks from the remaining four guards, her eyes narrowing as she looked for their weaknesses.

While she did want to be feared, it was certainly not fear without respect!

Finding their weaknesses, Gu Changsheng decisively moved in, swiftly disarming them and breaking their wrists with a few clean strikes.

“Mother! Even they can’t beat you, you Mother Tigress!” Zhou Zongbao’s eyes bulged with disbelief as he watched his six most capable guards quickly subdued by Gu Changsheng, who was now approaching him, causing him to retreat in fear.

Help! This beauty was too scary with all her spikes out!

Zhou Zongbao stumbled and fell onto his rear, ignoring the pain from the fall, he quickly shook his head and waved his hands begging for mercy, “Don’t hit the face! Please, don’t hit the face! This young master makes a living with his face!”
