Time Travel: The Best Doctor in Ancient Times

And the people of the Hidden World Clan were, at this very moment, all crowding around that small opening, packed so tightly not even wind could squeeze through...

Gu Changsheng and the evildoer at her side exchanged a glance, then she grabbed Yu Lianyi and started squeezing into the crowd...

Once she pushed past the cluster of Hidden World Clan people, Gu Changsheng finally saw the ”person” everyone was staring at!

The instant she saw that ”person,” Gu Changsheng’s scalp tingled a little!

It really was a person!

All she saw was a pitch‑black skeleton, standing there stiffly, frozen in the motion of looking back. The whole person had turned into a skeleton, yet was still standing ramrod straight; even the clothes on the skeleton had long since weathered away. At the skeleton’s feet, scattered all over the place, were all sorts of things...

There was a curved bow encrusted with blotches of rust, a Dagger adorned with wolf fangs, a weathered purse, silver ingots and Gold Ingots scattered off to the side...

With just one look, Gu Changsheng could tell from these things that this skeleton was obviously very, very old!

And the people of the Hidden World Clan clearly knew this as well, so with Elder Yuh taking the lead, the Hidden World Clan Elders got excited on the spot!

”Hurry up and look around, see if there’s anything we want nearby!” Elder Yuh said impatiently.

Almost at the same time, the people of the Hidden World Clan swept up every last thing scattered on the ground. When they saw Gu Changsheng standing to the side, they even shifted a few steps away from her in obvious wariness, their expressions guarded!

Gu Changsheng took in their actions in full, her bright, beautiful little face full of indifference. Her gaze stopped on the skeleton’s hand, Phoenix Eyes narrowing slightly...

In that skeleton’s hand, the dried hand bones were clenched tightly around a string of Keys, mottled with rust, completely black...

The Hidden World Clan crowd had dodged off to the side and were rummaging through the items that had fallen from the skeleton’s body, their faces still wearing smug, triumphant smiles...

”Gu Changsheng, this time you’re a step too late. If you keep trying to snatch from us again, you really won’t have any excuse!” Yu Qingqiu looked at Gu Changsheng with an utterly arrogant face, like he was finally venting the pent‑up frustration from the snakeskin incident, speaking with great relish.

At his words, Gu Changsheng didn’t even glance at him, her face full of undisguised contempt!

Her target, from beginning to end, had never been those things that had fallen from the skeleton’s body, but rather the thing this skeleton refused to let go of even in death...

That was her true goal on this trip!

One of the three Keys to opening the core of Northern Mongolia’s Treasury!

Gu Changsheng was one hundred percent certain that one of the Keys should be on this very keyring!

After all, if it weren’t something of utmost importance, this person would never have clutched it until death!

Under Yu Qingqiu’s gaze, Gu Changsheng walked openly right up to the skeleton, reached out, and carefully pried that string of Keys from between its hand bones...

”Clatter, clatter...”

Almost in sync with Gu Changsheng’s movement, at the very instant her fingers touched that keyring, the standing skeleton suddenly began to collapse with overwhelming force...

The long years of weathering had made this skeleton unbelievably fragile. Gu Changsheng’s light touch was like the final straw that broke the camel’s back, and before the naked eye, in mere moments, it turned into fine bone powder, scattering all over the ground...

Holding that rust‑eaten string of Keys in her hand, Gu Changsheng stared at the patch of steps where, just a moment ago, the skeleton had stood, now covered in bone powder. Her bright little face twitched on the spot...

Damn it!

All those endless years, he’d stood here without falling, yet she was the sinner who actually destroyed him with her own hands. Even though Gu Changsheng hadn’t done it on purpose, having disturbed the remains of Borjigin Nian’s ancestor, Gu Changsheng still felt more or less a bit guilty...

So Gu Changsheng immediately put her hands together in front of her chest and began silently confessing her sins in her heart!

Yu Qingqiu, seeing Gu Changsheng’s move, burst out laughing on the spot. Especially when he noticed that after the skeleton turned to bone powder and scattered on the ground, there was nothing of value left in the surroundings except that shabby, rusted keyring in Gu Changsheng’s hand. Yu Qingqiu’s mood instantly soared; he pointed at Gu Changsheng and laughed, saying, ”Gu Changsheng, what’s wrong with you? The guy’s turned to powder already, and you still picked up his Keys? Don’t tell me you’re planning to deduce this man’s identity from this pile of bone powder, then take that string of Keys and go loot his house?”

Hearing Yu Qingqiu’s words, the people around instantly turned their heads and looked over at Gu Changsheng...

Seeing Gu Changsheng standing there dumbfounded, still holding that string of completely rusted junk Keys, they couldn’t hold it in either and immediately burst out laughing along with him...

”Hahaha...”

”Hehe...”

”...”

The sounds of ridicule flooded Gu Changsheng’s ears in an instant, and this time, Gu Changsheng was truly stunned!

Are all these people a bunch of wooden clubs or what?

Especially that Yu Qingqiu—what on earth is stuffed inside his head? Straw?

But very quickly, Gu Changsheng realized that saying Yu Qingqiu’s head was stuffed with straw was kind of an insult to straw. What was stuffed in his head was practically a whole pile of dung!

Yu Qingqiu saw Gu Changsheng being mocked by everyone and, as if he’d just performed some great deed, his smile grew even broader. Pointing at Gu Changsheng with a face full of disdain, he said, ”Let me tell you, Gu Changsheng, stop daydreaming. Who knows how many years this person has been dead. Even if you get his Keys, you still won’t find his home!”

Saying this, Yu Qingqiu walked forward a few steps in high spirits, lifted his foot, and stepped onto the very steps where the skeleton had been standing just now...
