Time Travel: The Best Doctor in Ancient Times

Whatever you think of comes true; this should be a lucky thing, something to be happy about!

However, at this moment, Gu Changsheng truly cannot be happy!

On her bright and delicate face, there is a bitter smile. Right now, Gu Changsheng really feels like she could die!

Moreover, wanting to die now is surprisingly easy. Move forward, or retreat, or at worst, stand still and do nothing. Once the army of Man-eating Ants catches up, she will immediately be relieved!

”This time, it’s really dangerous!”

The so-called sighing before the ocean, although the river in front of her is a distance from the sea, it doesn’t stop Gu Changsheng from genuinely sighing before it!

”Don’t be afraid! I am here!” Zhou Mu intertwined his fingers with hers and looked at the petite woman beside him. His face, like a Divine Residence, with eyes as deep as a Cold Pool, was filled with affection...

Upon hearing this, Gu Changsheng’s face immediately blossomed with a smile, and she nodded, ”Okay! I’m not afraid! With you here, I will never be afraid!”

Fingers interlocked tightly, Gu Changsheng couldn’t help but squeeze a bit harder!

Words as cheesy as these, Gu Changsheng would not utter them even if you beat her to death under ordinary circumstances, but given the current life-threatening moment, if she doesn’t say them now, there might never be another chance!

”A river! A river! There’s a river ahead! Such a wide river, we are finally going to be reborn!”

From behind came Yu Qingqiu’s unabashedly excited shouting.

Without turning back, Gu Changsheng knew that the people of the Hidden World Clan and Gadatu they had left behind had caught up!

”Heavens haven’t abandoned us! Heavens haven’t abandoned us! Thank heavens! Thank earth!”

”We can live! We can live!”

”...”

The sounds of surprise came from behind, and Gu Changsheng even heard someone kneeling and thanking The Heavens!

”Why are you all standing here?”

Finally, someone noticed the existence of Gu Changsheng and Zhou Mu. In fact, they had noticed them long ago, but their minds were immersed in the joy of seeing the big river and didn’t react immediately!

”What do you think?” Gu Changsheng turned upon hearing and looked at the person who spoke...

It was none other than Yu Qingqiu!

Upon hearing Gu Changsheng’s words, Yu Qingqiu frowned slightly and said with a mocking tone, ”How would I know? Don’t tell us you are waiting for us; I wouldn’t believe you have such a good heart!”

”You’re overthinking!” Almost at the same time Yu Qingqiu’s words landed, Gu Changsheng’s response was out.

Waiting for them?

What kind of good thing is that?

She hasn’t even had time to shake off this group of burdens, let alone wait for them!

Simply wishful thinking!

”Then why haven’t you crossed the river yet? Waiting here for the Man-eating Ants to catch up and gnaw you down to even less than bones?” Yu Qingqiu said, her face dark with undisguisable hope in her voice.

He was against Gu Changsheng and most likely the one who wished the hardest for her misfortune!

”Lying with your eyes wide open, Man-eating Ants have gnawed before, but they definitely leave behind a skeleton!” Gu Changsheng hearing this, pouted in rebuttal, then raised her hand to point at the big river in front and said, ”Do you want to cross? Then go!”

Upon hearing this, Yu Qingqiu’s frown deepened as he looked at Gu Changsheng with skepticism and a hint of gloating in his eyes, ”Gu Changsheng, you wouldn’t happen to not know how to swim, would you?”

”You think too much; I can do anything!” Gu Changsheng replied immediately, a face full of disdain.

Swim?

Isn’t that just swimming?

How could she not know? It’s a compulsory course for a Special Forces Soldier battlefield military doctor!

If she couldn’t swim, what kind of special task would she execute?

”Then why aren’t you in the river? Swimming across would solve it, wouldn’t it?” Yu Qingqiu said, glancing at the width of the river; no matter how high one’s martial arts, flying across wouldn’t be possible, leaving swimming as the only option!

”Hehe...” Gu Changsheng replied with a bitter smile.

”Qingqiu!” Coming over with Yu Lianyi, Elder Yuh glared at Yu Qingqiu with a warning look, then both he and Yu Lianyi looked at Gu Changsheng with a complex expression, then turned their heads towards the river standing before them...

”Something’s wrong!” Elder of Bai Family, Bai Wuao, also walked over, frowning as he glanced at Gu Changsheng and Zhou Mu, with a face of pondering, then he took out a small parcel from his bosom. Opening it, it was a package of dried meat...

Seeing Bai Wuao’s action, Gu Changsheng raised an eyebrow!

Alright!

Ginger grows spicier with age. This Bai Wuao surely has some skills. No wonder the Bai Family could produce a young Master of the Primordial Transformative Realm. However, in the Nirvana Martial Contest at Linyuan City, the Master of the Primordial Transformative Realm of Yu Family, Yuh Zhiqian, died, yet the rumored female master of the Bai Family has never appeared, and to this day, remains unseen!

”Swish!”

Bai Wuao’s action was quick and efficient. He tossed a piece of jerky, drawing a parabola through the air, heading towards the river...

Everyone stopped their exclamations and couldn’t help but watch the jerky’s trajectory towards the river’s surface...

Seeing this, Gu Changsheng sighed. In fact, there was no need to watch; she already knew the result...

Sure enough, the next instant...

”Splash...”

”Splash...”

”...”

The sound of rushing water echoed in the river. Gu Changsheng glanced with the corner of his eye towards where the sound came from...

Then, he saw several colossal creatures, covered in thick scales, rushing to the surface with their gaping maws wide open, fighting for the dried meat...

Crocodiles!

No!

More accurately, giant crocodiles!

”Godfather!”

”What the hell are these things?”

”Mother!”

”...”

Almost the instant the giant crocodiles breached the surface, a cry of alarm erupted around Gu Changsheng. Everyone couldn’t help but retreat with an expression of terror...

Luckily, they hadn’t jumped directly into the river earlier; otherwise, with these things scrambling madly for the dried meat, wouldn’t they have been torn to shreds?

No way out!

Truly, there was no way out!

These creatures, although only visible for a moment when they surfaced, bore thick scales that seemed incredibly tough...

Hard to deal with!

It was an instinct!

And their instincts were not wrong. Otherwise, Gu Changsheng and Zhou Mu wouldn’t be hesitating by the riverbank, only able to look and sigh!

”Crocodiles, and not just any, but mutated giant crocodiles. These creatures have scales so thick they’re nearly indestructible. Carnivorous and bloodthirsty, they live by the water, love playing in it, yet are reptiles and can also be considered amphibious! If you provoke them, death won’t be far!” Gu Changsheng said expressionlessly, looking at the water surface still rippling slightly in front of him. ”Compared to the Man-eating Ants, these things are equally deadly!”

When Gu Changsheng said this, he truly felt quite helpless inside!

Crocodiles, if this were the present day, they’d be a nationally protected species!

But here, they’ve become a harbinger of death!

Damn it, where’s the promised silver lining? This is clearly another pitfall!

The saying goes, ’between a rock and a hard place’. This is its real-life version!

In front, the crocodiles lurking underwater, and so many already on the surface, God knows how many more are still submerged. Behind, an overwhelming swarm of Man-eating Ants, trapped in a dilemma with no way out but death!

Between a rock and a hard place, with no hope in sight!

”Godfather, does this mean we still can’t escape? I thought with the river we’d have a slim chance, ah! I don’t want to die! I’m still so young, I don’t want to die!” Yu Qingqiu’s face immediately showed a hint of despair as she heard this, clutching her head and shouting desperately.

”I don’t want to die either! Not here...”

”...”

The joy of seeing the great river disappeared the moment the giant crocodiles appeared!

The excitement of escaping imminent death was replaced by the fear of it, leaving the members of the Hidden World Clan unable to control their emotions, each lamenting with utter despair!

”Everyone shut up!” Gu Changsheng, who had still been frowning and thinking of a plan, heard the chaotic voices, and his frown deepened, finally erupting in a low roar he could not contain, ”Cry out for your parents once more, and I’ll toss you to the crocodiles! A scar no bigger than a bowl, look at you all being cowards!”

After yelling, Gu Changsheng withdrew his gaze, continued staring at the water surface, and fell into contemplation!

Do the crocodiles have any weaknesses?

Gu Changsheng racked her brain, trying to recall information from her past life, hoping to find a glimmer of hope. But soon, she depressingly realized that these creatures, almost born in the era of dinosaurs, had evolved over eons and were nearly nature’s perfect creation, practically flawless!

Passing through the giant crocodile-infested river smoothly was too difficult!

Unless they grew wings and could fly over the dozens of yards...

With this thought, a hint of hope flashed in Gu Changsheng’s eyes. She pulled out an inconsequential object from her body and tossed it onto the river...

The same thing happened again, just like with the dried meat Bai Wuao threw. The figures of the giant crocodiles surfaced once more, their gaping maws rushing toward the object Gu Changsheng threw, and this time, even more of them appeared...

No!

Even if it’s not meat, it’s no good!

These giant crocodiles would launch indiscriminate attacks whenever something approached the water’s surface. Trying to use something as a foothold to fly across the river was simply not feasible!

Behind, rustling sounds spread fiercely and overwhelmingly...

Gu Changsheng glanced back, her bright face now icy cold. Estimating the distance, it was less than a hundred yards away. The Man-eating Ant army was catching up!

They didn’t have much time. If they delayed any longer, death was the only path ahead!

If they couldn’t cross the crocodile-infested river, they’d have no choice but to end up in the stomachs of the Man-eating Ants...
