Time Travel: The Best Doctor in Ancient Times

Qiwowen Du raised his hand, pointed at himself, swallowed hard, and spoke with difficulty, ”That... that dish, isn’t it referring to me?”

”Who else besides you?” Gu Changsheng replied irritably, turning back to glare at him.

Qiwowen Du, ”...”

He was the Young Master of the Nomadic tribe, one moment fallen to a cook’s status, and the next, became fish meat on display?

Dish on a plate?

How big a plate would it take to hold him?

Qiwowen Du felt very innocent, completely a victim of unjust disaster!

Holding a fire stick in hand, poking at the flame under the pot, Qiwowen Du nearly wanted to cry, ”Who did I provoke? It’s just that I’m a bit of a chatterbox!”

”It’s not your fault you’re a chatterbox, but when you’re talking, why do you keep getting close to my lady’s face?” said Yuan Bao, chopping vegetables, rolling his eyes.

”I didn’t!” Qiwowen Du felt wronged.

”Didn’t you? If my master hadn’t spoken, your face would’ve stuck to my lady’s face, and you call that nothing? I’m telling you, you should feel lucky. If your identity weren’t special, you’d probably be dead by now under my master’s hands!” Yuan Bao shook his head, speaking with admiration, ”You’re truly bold to even dare eat my lady’s tofu!”

”I did not! I just thought your lady’s half-face mask looked nice and couldn’t help getting a bit closer!” Qiwowen Du protested, ”I’m an upright person, how could I eat someone’s tofu!”

”Whether you’re upright or not, being able to make my master jealous once is a real skill!” Yuan Bao felt it wouldn’t be good for his lady to overhear, ended the topic sheepishly.

Qiwowen Du felt even more innocent!

He really didn’t do anything, so why wasn’t he liked?

Why did his identity have to be revealed?

Can’t we just play nicely?

”Your master is really annoying!” Qiwowen Du concluded.

Upon hearing this, Yuan Bao raised an eyebrow, looked at Qiwowen Du, and thought about it, kindly reminded him, ”If you want to live steady, you’d better swallow those words back!”

”Words spoken are like water spilled; there’s no taking them back. Your master is annoying!” Qiwowen Du protested, his eyes fierce and unapologetic.

Yuan Bao heard this, his mouth twitched, unable to resist glancing at his master, then at the man standing next to his master, looked at his round, jade-like face, tightened involuntarily, said, ”You should be grateful the one who spoke first was my master; if it was the man next to him, you’d likely be dead by now!”

”That man? The one in black clothes? Who is he?” Upon hearing this, Qiwowen Du turned to look at Shi Wujue, curiously asked.

”Male mistress!” Yuan Bao’s response was blunt and straightforward.

Gu Changsheng turned his head, just in time to hear this, stumbled slightly, almost fell headfirst to the ground!

”Xiao—Er—Que!” Gu Changsheng looked at Yuan Bao, gritting his teeth, growled one word at a time.

Male mistress?

Male mistress!

His Yuan Bao’s courage was truly growing bolder!

Actually dared to call Shi Wujue a male mistress!

Is he tired of living solidly?

Or is it because he relies on having me around, so even if Shi Wujue gets angry, he wouldn’t really do anything to him?

”Ma... mistress... I’m cooking!” Yuan Bao heard his lady got angry, trembled with fear, quickly bowed his head, focused on his task.

”Mistress, the one who exposed my identity, is that your man?” Qiwowen Du turned from the cooking fire, looking at Gu Changsheng, eyes bright, asked.

”Yes!” No hesitation needed, Gu Changsheng replied crisply.

The one who spoke to reveal Qiwowen Du’s identity was their evildoer, which necessarily was her man!

”Ah, I see! And that man next to him, is he the male mistress?” Qiwowen Du nodded repeatedly, blinked his innocent eyes, asked.

Upon hearing this, Gu Changsheng’s entire demeanor changed, moved closer to Qiwowen Du, bent down, looked down at the seated Qiwowen Du, squinted his phoenix eyes threateningly, ”Qiwowen Du, listen to me, if you don’t want your Nomadic tribe to change Young Masters, best curb your chatterbox, speak carefully, saying less isn’t fatal, but speaking too much can cost lives!”

Qiwowen Du, ”...”

Avoided speaking!

”Humph!” Gu Changsheng looked at him acting quite obedient, snorted coldly, turned around, and walked toward her evildoer and Shi Wujue. Although she didn’t understand chess, she could certainly enjoy the spectacle!

She really didn’t want to be pestered by that chatterbox Qiwowen Du!

Honestly, it was just too speechless to handle!

Seeing the two people at a loss before the chessboard, Gu Changsheng blinked, ”I always thought the nomadic tribe was just a bunch of rabble, maybe just good-looking mixed bloods. I never expected that I was wrong!”

If it weren’t for this encounter with Qiwowen Du in the Star Innate Tower, Gu Changsheng might have truly overlooked the significant role of the nomadic tribe, even unintentionally owed them a huge favor.

”Grains of sand gather to form a sea; the nomadic tribe has wandered on the edges of multiple nations for generations, thriving in the cracks of wars, with some strength—it’s not surprising.” Zhou Mu glanced at his small woman, eyes deep as a cold pool, hiding displeasure as he spoke, ”But even so, you should stay far away from that man!”

”...” Upon hearing this, Gu Changsheng couldn’t help but look up at the top of the tower, wearing a face of innocence.

This, truly isn’t her fault!

How could she know that Qiwowen Du would stick to people so familiarly?

Plus, she wasn’t even aware of this, okay?

It’s clearly her evildoer being too petty!

”Exactly, he’s not a good bird!” Shi Wujue, holding a black pawn, nodded earnestly in agreement with Zhou Mu’s words, saying solemnly, ”If Zhou hadn’t spoken up, I would’ve acted directly as City Lord!”

Upon hearing this, Gu Changsheng’s mouth twitched, unable to resist saying, ”Promoting violence is bad!”

”Violence can’t solve all problems, but it’s more than enough to deal with that Young Master; that’s your viewpoint.” Shi Wujue replied, believing he said nothing wrong.

Gu Changsheng was speechless for a moment. These two men, seriously...

Made it seem like she was drawing Peach Blossoms!

Clearly the Peach Blossoms are sticking to her, okay?

However, Gu Changsheng felt discussing other men in front of her evildoer and Shi Wujue was definitely twisted, so it’s better to interrupt this topic soon. Because thinking of Yuan Bao saying ’male mistress,’ Gu Changsheng felt she was the most awkward person!

”I always thought you two were exceptionally talented, capable of anything...” Gu Changsheng glanced at the chessboard, then at their hesitant, contemplative expressions, speaking disdainfully, ”But don’t tell me this chess game has stumped you!”

”This is the Ancient Wilderness Remnant Chess!” Zhou Mu’s answer was brief.

”If we’re stumped, isn’t there still you?” Shi Wujue chuckled lightly, seemingly without any concept of life and death importance.

Upon hearing this, Gu Changsheng quickly shook her head, ”I really don’t know this.”

”You didn’t know the Array-breaking Method for the Universe Grand Divergence Ancient Formation on the second layer of the Star Innate Tower either, yet you broke it by accidentally kicking a bookshelf—Beauty, the City Lord thinks you’re either hiding too deeply or you’re incredibly lucky, a person blessed by fortune!” Shi Wujue said, shaking his head earnestly.

”What am I hiding? My old man excels in formations, but my research is limited to Illusion Array, so it was purely luck, nothing to do with skills!” Gu Changsheng clarified, ”Even though luck is also a form of skill, it’s unstable, isn’t it? Hence, you should focus on breaking this chess game diligently, don’t pin hopes on me—it’ll only lead to disappointment!”

”The Ancient Wilderness Remnant Chess is unpredictable; breaking it is no easy task.” Zhou Mu said solemnly, his gaze still fixed on the chessboard.

”Zhou is right!” Shi Wujue nodded, sighed, and said helplessly, ”Beauty, listen to the City Lord—if within three days we still can’t crack this chess, you just randomly place a piece, how about we take the reckless approach?”

Saying this, Shi Wujue turned, raised an eyebrow at Gu Changsheng, and smiled mischievously.

As if in sync with him, the stars atop the third layer of the tower flickered faintly.

”...Stop messing around! I said breaking that annoying Universe Grand Divergence Ancient Formation was me blindly doing it, such a thing can happen once or twice but not thrice—do you think we’ll be that lucky the whole time?” Gu Changsheng’s mouth twitched instantly upon hearing him.

Shi Wujue’s seemed overly optimistic, right?

He actually hoped she’d guess it correctly!

Are you kidding me?

”You also said it can happen once, maybe twice, but not thrice—you’ve guessed right once already, we still have a second chance, hesitate on the third time and we’re still on time!” Shi Wujue shrugged, wearing a wicked grin.

Upon hearing this, Gu Changsheng jumped and kicked his shin, ”Hey, have you decided to shirk your duties? I’m telling you, no way—in three days, you must break this chess game, otherwise, I’ll show you what’s what! All that pampering for nothing!”

Shi Wujue lowered his head, glanced at his kicked leg, shook his head, and sighed, ”Ah! Beauty, you really don’t cherish jade...”

”Where’s the jade?” Gu Changsheng sneered.

”The City Lord, as radiant as jade—can’t you see, Beauty?” Shi Wujue raised an eyebrow.

”I’m not blind enough to mistake male for female!”
