Time Travel: The Best Doctor in Ancient Times

Chapter 665: Chapter 508 Yuan Bao and the Little Monk

Hearing the cries for help, Gu Changsheng and Zhou Mu both shuddered!

The voice was too plaintive and helpless, too wandering and fragile...

”Plop!”

”Plop!”

Immediately following, two more sounds came...

There was no killing intent behind them! Nor any malice!

A flash of insight struck, and the corners of Gu Changsheng’s mouth suddenly twitched...

Benefactor Changsheng... Among the people she knew, only one person called her that!

That was Little Monk Bu Jie!

Gu Changsheng and Zhou Mu exchanged a glance, both of their equally handsome faces barely holding back a twitch, their expressions filled with shock and uncertainty as they turned back to look down at the two on the ground...

Yuan Bao’s round and plump body and Little Monk Bu Jie’s small frame were huddled together, nearly shaking like sieves, their expressions surprisingly consistent, both extremely frightened and anxious...

Seeing their master and lady turn around, the two instantly looked up with hopeful faces.

”Master, Lady, save us!” Yuan Bao called out with watery eyes, voice trembling.

”Benefactor Zhou, Benefactor Changsheng...” Little Monk Bu Jie also looked at them pitifully...

Behind the two on the ground, a dozen or so people in black stood side by side, their faces full of disdain and mockery!

Even Granny Wu Shan turned her head with a cold expression upon hearing that, thinking it was her subordinates being disobedient and hurting someone, but instead...

”Yuan... Bao! Shang... Xie!” Seeing the state of the two, Gu Changsheng immediately confirmed her suspicions. Her face became a colorful mix of emotions, and she clenched her teeth as she called out their names, truly wanting to bite these two a few times!

Dammit! The personal little eunuch of His Highness Prince Mu, yet he has a fear of heights?

The successor of the Secret Sect Shang Clan, yet he has a fear of heights?

Dammit, both of them have a fear of heights!

And their acrophobia is so heroic!

Just look at the way Granny Wu Shan and Zhou Mu are looking at her, what kind of looks are those?

They’re looking at a joke!

Dammit, this is seriously embarrassing! She has lost face all the way to Bashu!

Her and that evildoer’s reputation, truly lost beyond recovery!

”Lady... Lady, Yuan Bao is scared!” Upon hearing this, tears welled up in Yuan Bao’s eyes, spilling down his chubby face like it didn’t cost anything.

Scared? Dammit, he is still a zhang away from the edge of the cliff, what’s there to be scared of!

”Changsheng... Benefactor Changsheng, this monk is also afraid!” Little Monk Bu Jie, huddled with Yuan Bao, echoed, and although he wasn’t devaluing himself by crying like Yuan Bao, his swollen, panicked eyes were genuinely filled with fear!

Dammit, you’re afraid too!

You’re a monk, aren’t you supposed to fear nothing on earth or in heaven?

What happened to the serene and benevolent appearance, to remaining unflustered under the overwhelming pressure of Mount Tai? How did you become such an absurd sight just crossing a suspension bridge?

Under the mocking gazes of Granny Wu Shan’s subordinates, Gu Changsheng really wanted to channel her inner Tarzan and beat her chest, yelling out that she didn’t know these two fools!

The embarrassment! Seriously, dammit, what a loss of face!

Zhou Mu tilted his head slightly and saw his little lady with a face full of frustration, her expression extremely colorful and animated!

His mood instantly eased up a lot. Standing by her side, he glanced at the two on the ground without saying a word.

Allowing her to return to her former vibrancy and maintaining that zest for life was his lifelong wish!

”Get up!” Gu Changsheng looked at the two, the corners of her mouth and eyes twitching, and spoke in a deep voice, her eyes flashing a stark warning.

If you don’t get up now! Dammit, if you don’t get up now she’s going to flip out!

She had never been so humiliated in her life as she had been today!

On hearing this, Yuan Bao and Little Monk Bu Jie’s heads shook like rattle drums, clearly refusing to get up.

Little Monk Bu Jie was even more resolute, shaking his head, his bright little head tucking into Yuan Bao’s plump chest and he refused to get up!

”Huh...” Gu Changsheng looked up to the sky, took a long breath to calm the riotous fury inside her, and looked down, sweeping her ominous gaze over the two once more, and spoke again in a deep voice, ”Get up! Don’t make me say it a third time!”

”No! No! There’s a cliff ahead, too high, too scary! If we fall, we’ll turn into minced meat! Yuan Bao would rather die than get up!” Yuan Bao glanced behind Gu Changsheng as he spoke, and upon seeing her, panicked and shook his head, emphatically refusing.

”Minced meat? With your round and plump figure, at most you would turn into a meatball if you fell! Get up now, for god’s sake!” Gu Changsheng retorted with twitching lips upon hearing this.

A meatball?

Upon hearing this, Yuan Bao’s face darkened, and he was mocked by his lady again!

Mockery, schmockery, I’m not getting up even if you mock me to death!

He was dead set on not moving, no matter what anyone said!

The cliffs ahead were truly terrifying!

”Benefactor Changsheng, the monk feels the same, the monk would rather die than get up. To die early is to transcend early. The monk prefers early transcendence!” A stifled voice came from Yuan Bao’s embrace, with Little Monk Bu Jie nearly burrowing himself into Yuan Bao’s hefty flesh!

”Die early to transcend early? You sure dream pretty!” Was this really her Little Monk Bu Jie who always sported a look of kindness and compassion, the always unchanging face of sorrow for the world? Could it be? Gu Changsheng was really skeptical!

Looking at the two of them huddled together, Gu Changsheng was speechless and choked up. How come Yuan Bao, this Xiao Er Que, and Little Monk Bu Jie became so weird and so infuriating when they were together? Could idiocy be contagious?

Give me back my cool and collected Little Monk Bu Jie!

”You two! You two!” Gu Changsheng pointed at the two on the ground, tearfully exasperated, ”It was you two who sneaked in secretly, and now, you’re both embarrassing me here. Get up!”

Embarrassing? They’re not getting up even if it’s embarrassing! Yuan Bao and Little Monk Bu Jie shook their heads again!

Abyssal cliffs, bottomless depths, just one glance sends shivers down my spine, frightens the life out of me. They’re not getting up!

”Prince Changsheng needn’t do this. The difficulties of the Sichuan Road are well known to the world. Many look at the Heavenly Path into Bashu and step back, paralyzed at the bridgehead, not daring to cross. Prince Changsheng’s men are probably the same, hehe...” one of Granny Wu Shan’s subordinates said with a smile.

The mockery on his face was all too clear!

”Exactly! Haha...”

”Haha...”

Here were followers of both His Royal Highness Prince Mu of Great Zhou and Prince Changsheng who dared not step onto the mere Heavenly Path. It was simply...haha...

Please allow them to laugh out loud!

People from the Central Plains say that those from Bashu and Southern Border are tricky folks from the poor mountains and evil waters, but who would have thought that the people from the Central Plains are not even up to tricky folks, let alone such prestigious individuals from the Central Plains!

This is truly a great joke!

Their mocking faces truly irritated Gu Changsheng!

People fight for a breath of pride; monks fight for the time it takes an incense stick to burn. Gu Changsheng thought that a person must not lose face too terribly. If necessary, she would pick it up herself!

”Get up! This is the last time I’m reminding you. Otherwise, don’t blame me for personally making you get up,” Gu Changsheng said, a cold smirk on her lips as she looked at Yuan Bao and Little Monk Bu Jie.

This was the rhythm of Lady Changsheng’s impending wrath!

Knowing Gu Changsheng’s temperament well after being with her for a long time, the two immediately understood!

So, if they didn’t get up, what awaited them indeed was Lady Changsheng personally taking action to make them get up.

And when Lady Changsheng took action, it was never gentle!

”We’re getting up! We’re getting up!” Weighing their options, Yuan Bao immediately made up his mind and clumsily tried to scramble to his feet.

Little Monk Bu Jie as well. In a panic, he grabbed the wooden fish he had tossed aside and began to get up with the support of the ground...

Gu Changsheng watched them with narrowed eyes, not urging them on.

Fear of heights; most people in the world have acrophobia to varying degrees.

Even in her previous life, she had a mild fear of heights, but as a military doctor in a special forces unit, she had to overcome that fear.

”Wu...my legs are too weak! I can’t get up! Wuu...” After a while, struggling to get up without success, Yuan Bao sat back down on his bum, his chubby face crumpling into bun pleats.

Little Monk Bu Jie nearby wasn’t faring much better and was still not up.

Seeing this, Gu Changsheng shook her head; her patience was never very good and at this moment, it was truly running out.

With two Brocade Red Ropes tied around her waist suddenly outstretched, Gu Changsheng looked at them both, her lips curled into an evil smile.

Seeing those ropes, Yuan Bao and Little Monk Bu Jie shivered, an ominous premonition welling up inside them.

”Lady Changsheng, what are you going to do?” Yuan Bao, tugging at Little Monk Bu Jie, shuffled back on the ground cautiously.

Little Monk Bu Jie’s eyes were also filled with panic as he looked at Gu Changsheng.

But even as they looked at Gu Changsheng, they dared not glance behind her at the sheer cliff!

”Yuan Bao, Shang Xie, you two have known me for quite some time now. You’re familiar with my temper. What do you think I’m going to do?” The two zhang-long Brocade Red Ropes, always kept on hand for unexpected needs, danced in the air as she moved, creating several rope patterns, exuding fierce energy and an intimidating presence.

Seeing their lady’s smile that was not quite a smile, Yuan Bao and Little Monk Bu Jie suddenly felt the urge to run away!

They had regrets! They shouldn’t have followed along!

People often say the Sichuan Road is difficult, but who knew it would be this difficult? Only those who have traveled it truly understand!

”My lady! Don’t you come any closer! Don’t come any closer!” As his lady approached step by step, Yuan Bao shrank back on the ground guardedly, ”If you come any closer, Yuan Bao’s going to cry!

And Bu Jie retreated as well.

”If you don’t hurry now, we’ll never reach Jinchuan City before dark! What are you dilly-dallying with them for?” Granny Wu Shan snapped impatiently from behind.

Gu Changsheng glanced at the sky upon hearing this, and the two ropes in her hands went streaking towards the two on the ground...
