Time Travel: The Best Doctor in Ancient Times

”What are you thinking?” Borjigin Nian asked, immediately shooting Gu Changsheng a pointed look and speaking through gritted teeth, ”My Father King is naturally devoted to my Royal Mother wholeheartedly! But Gu Changsheng, you should know the rules of Northern Mongolia; after the deaths of my Father King’s father and brothers, it is customary that their women are inherited by my Father King!”

”That woman with the third Key and Geomancy Map was my grandfather’s beloved concubine! Her name is Qian Niang, a woman of the Central Plains, and she was the only female general of Northern Mongolia. She is also known as Qian Qiuniang, with gentle looks but a fierce temperament, and she was valiant and skilled in battle. After my Father King ascended the throne, she was appointed as the royal city guard and should be in the Royal City now!”

As Borjigin Nian spoke, she glanced at Gu Changsheng, adding, ”My Father King never touched her, and she likely knows she carries that Geomancy Map with her! Because she was chosen by my grandfather!”

Gu Changsheng nodded in response.

Suddenly, he found himself deeply admiring the last two generations of Commandery Princes in Northern Mongolia!

Damn, it’s all calculations! It really is all calculations!

Making someone a favored concubine, while also appointing her a general, was actually a strategy to have a woman from the Central Plains protect the Northern Mongolia’s guardianship!

Think about it, who would have thought that such an important thing would be placed on a woman from a foreign tribe by the King of Northern Mongolia?

That woman called Qian Qiuniang was, in itself, an unstable factor for Northern Mongolia!

”Not of our tribe, so their heart must be different,” is it not?

To the people of Northern Mongolia, that Qian Qiuniang was the woman of divided loyalties!

The most dangerous place is the safest place. Borjigin Nian, the only legitimate Princess of Northern Mongolia, was inherently conspicuous, yet she carried the whereabouts of a Key! Qian Qiuniang, being of a foreign tribe, was an impossibility that had become possible! And someone from the maternal family of Borjigin Nian was a spirit communication person! Who would connect such a matter with a spirit communication person?

We must acknowledge, the last two generations of rulers in Northern Mongolia are people with great wisdom!

This selection was truly impeccable!

Knowing the whereabouts of the other two Keys, Gu Changsheng didn’t ask further!

Fortunately, the first Key was kept at Yanmen Pass, which was right before him!

A silent atmosphere spread within the carriage!

Gu Changsheng was not an artist, and her drawing skills were not great, but she could still make a rubbing of the tattoo on Borjigin Nian’s back!

At the very least, her drawn Geomancy Map was far more three-dimensional than the one on Borjigin Nian’s back!

After all, as long as she could understand it herself, right? You can’t ask for too much!

Gu Changsheng was deft and moved quickly!

Soon, she had successfully made a rubbing of the Geomancy Map!

After blowing the newly made Geomancy Map dry, Gu Changsheng saw that the ink had dried, and put it away before saying to Borjigin Nian, ”I must go now, I’ve lingered here too long, Borjigin Lvchi will surely get suspicious!”

Gu Changsheng hadn’t forgotten that she was currently on someone else’s turf!

”With Beauty Sai and Li Ji accompanying you, Nian, don’t be afraid; my Senior Brother and I are behind you.”

Saying so, Gu Changsheng turned and walked towards the outside of the carriage.

”Gu Changsheng!”

But just as Gu Changsheng turned, Borjigin Nian called out to her, with an expression on her delicate face difficult to conceal, saying with worry, ”Gu Changsheng, I know you are bent on going to the Divine Demise Land to resurrect your parents, but if possible, could you consider giving up?”

Upon hearing this, Gu Changsheng stiffened slightly, turned back, and looked at Borjigin Nian, with a somewhat ethereal expression, muttering softly, ”Nian, when something becomes that insurmountable hurdle in your heart, when it becomes the obsession deep within you, you know that to fulfill this matter, we can only move forward and never give up!”

Borjigin Nian dimmed at these words, looking at Gu Changsheng and expressing her concern, ”Gu Changsheng, then please be careful. In searching for the three Keys, I cannot accompany you. Any slight move I make will attract Borjigin Lvchi’s attention, which might cause trouble and complicate things for you. However, the Intestine-Breaking Cliff at the Valley of Forgetfulness is a Heaven’s Moat Dead Land with no return, so you must act cautiously and take care of yourself!”

Gu Changsheng, hearing this, subtly curved her lips, revealing a faint smile on her radiant face. She nodded at Borjigin Nian, ”I will be careful, don’t worry about me. Just take care of yourself!”

”Mm!” Borjigin Nian nodded, watching as Gu Changsheng pushed open the carriage door and disappeared from her sight.

Outside the carriage, Zhou Mu saw Gu Changsheng coming down and hurriedly reached out to catch her.

”All set?”

”Mm!” Gu Changsheng nodded, then gestured to Beauty Sai and Li Ji standing not far away. She pulled her evildoer and turned to walk back the way they came.

Zhou Mu watched his little woman hastier than when she arrived, noting her expression. With a face akin to the Divine Residence, his brow couldn’t help but slightly furrow. Seeing no one around, he couldn’t help but ask quietly, ”What’s wrong? Why do you look as if facing a formidable enemy? Could it be that the key your junior sister knows about is very hard to obtain?”

Gu Changsheng heard him and nodded, ”It is indeed hard to obtain!”

Intestine-Breaking Cliff, just by its name, one knows it’s definitely not a place of kindness.

Moreover, Borjigin Nian also mentioned that the key was lost at the bottom of the cliff, and the ancestors who placed the key had not come out; exactly where it is, no one knows!

Dangerous, unknown!

”But judging by your expression, it seems this isn’t your biggest worry!” Zhou Mu knew his little woman very well. He looked at her and spoke solemnly.

He then wrapped an arm around her and took off with a swift step, reaching the long procession outside, far away from everyone!

”Tell me, what exactly is it that worries you so much, causing you such distress!”

Raising his hand, he tapped the forehead of the woman before him, asking warmly.

”Evildoer, we’ve been set up!”

Gu Changsheng looked at the man before her, whose presence was like the Divine Residence, furrowing her brows tightly, and spoke solemnly.

”Oh? Who?”

Who set us up?

”You’re right, the key on Nian is very difficult to obtain, but I fear no danger; I just fear being used as a pawn for someone else!” Her gaze fixed on the boundless horizon, Gu Changsheng spoke through gritted teeth.

”What do you mean?” Zhou Mu heard her, and his handsome brows furrowed alongside.

”Little Meat Bun just discovered that Northern Mongolian is secretly searching for something, then I came to Borjigin Nian for clues and ran into Borjigin Lvchi. Evildoer, don’t you find it a bit too coincidental? That Borjigin Lvchi directly told Borjigin Nian what he wanted? Without beating around the bush at all, don’t you find it odd?”

Gu Changsheng turned back, looked at her evildoer, and spoke solemnly.

”You mean someone deliberately let us know this information to use us to find the Secret Realm Key?” Zhou Mu, being astute, understood immediately once Gu Changsheng spoke, even though she hadn’t mentioned what Little Meat Bun found.

”It’s Fufeng Tianlan! People from Sand Sea! They’re the ones who most want the Secret Realm Key!” Gu Changsheng nodded upon hearing, then shook her head, continuing, ”No! More precisely, they and we both want the Secret Realm Key! Our goal is the same! That is to find the Secret Realm Key, to open the Divine Demise Land!”

At this point, Gu Changsheng gritted her teeth, speaking with hatred, ”Fufeng Tianlan, that damned woman, she knows that if I find out the Secret Realm Key is lost in Northern Mongolian, I will undoubtedly strive to obtain it; therefore, she wants to be the beneficiary of it all!”

Zhou Mu nodded, sighed, and spoke slowly, ”Because even if we know her intentions, we will still proceed as she wishes; our northward journey’s goal is the Divine Demise Land, because that’s the most likely place where Tears of the Goddess might be stored, and she, from Sand Sea, also wishes to open the Divine Demise Land’s Secret Realm—in this regard, our goals are aligned!”

”Indeed, our goals are aligned, and she merely wants to profit without effort! What’s unbearable is, I can’t stop her from profiting without effort!” Gu Changsheng said, kicking the grass underfoot viciously, cursing through gritted teeth, ”Damn, truly unbearable! It’s infuriating!”

Seeing his little woman so angry, Zhou Mu hurriedly soothed, speaking gently, ”Don’t be angry, the things we need to do must still be done, right? Getting upset for nothing will only make those close to you feel pain and your enemies rejoice, it’s meaningless!”

Gu Changsheng’s lips pouted high as she spoke sulkily, ”It’s true, but damn, thinking about it feels suffocating, this is full of schemes, this old lady really isn’t noble, I don’t want to be the one who benefits others!”

At this point, Gu Changsheng gritted her teeth again and added, ”Especially that damned woman Fufeng Tianlan, I don’t want her to succeed! To reap without sowing!”

”Haha...” Zhou Mu looked at his somewhat furious little woman, reached out to rub her small head, speaking warmly, but his words were sharp, ”It’s simple, if you don’t want her to succeed, then don’t let her succeed!”

”What do you mean?” Gu Changsheng heard him and immediately blinked, asking with a puzzled look.

”Before we enter the Sand Sea, kill her; even if we’re destined to open the Divine Demise Land’s Secret Realm, she won’t see it, so what success is there to talk about? You’re competing against a dead person...”
