Time Travel: The Best Doctor in Ancient Times
Chapter 1658 - 1284: Trailblazers—Voluntarily Going Down the Cliff?
What on earth is this ghost, terrifying this group of people, making them flee as if they’ve lost their souls?
Peeking out from behind a big rock, Gu Changsheng held the half-eaten rabbit leg in her mouth, gazing into the distance...
Oh my god!
Completely empty!
There’s nothing there!
Could it be that this group of people ran into a ghost?
Even if they ran into a ghost, is there a need to be this cowardly?
It’s clearly just people scaring people!
But soon, Gu Changsheng noticed something was off...
Because the direction in which the group fled was none other than the edge of the Intestine-Breaking Cliff where she and her evildoer were located!
Isn’t this awkward?
Having followed them all the way, picking up scraps along the way, just when she predicted there might be danger, Gu Changsheng waved her sleeve and ditched them, but just shortly after ditching them, it seems like they’re heading for a meetup, isn’t it?
Yu Qingqiu, pale as a ghost, despite being supported by Elder Yuh and Yuh Zhangzhu, fled rather swiftly, accompanied by people from the Hidden World Clan and the Great General of Yanmen Pass, Gadatu!
More of his followers, who came along with Gadatu, were left far behind!
Poor ability, you can’t really blame anyone for this!
Gu Changsheng shook her head with a look of regret!
Soon, those fleeing from the Hidden World Clan and Gadatu, as expected by Gu Changsheng, came face-to-face with them!
Upon seeing Gu Changsheng and Zhou Mu hiding behind the big rock, the faces of the Hidden World Clan people turned unusually strange...
"Why are you here?" Yu Qingqiu asked, with one hand wrapped in thick white cloth stained with some blood, looking at Gu Changsheng and Zhou Mu in surprise and uncertainty.
Yu Qingqiu’s voice instantly shattered the calm, and the people who had still been trembling with fear instantly forgot about fleeing, casting fiery glances in the direction of Gu Changsheng and Zhou Mu!
Being stared at by so many people, seeing that the barbecue won’t happen, Gu Changsheng pursed her lips, took down the half-eaten rabbit leg from her mouth, and, through the big rock, twitching her lips, handed it forward, "Well, if I say we’re here having a barbecue, would you believe me?"
Barbecue?
Upon hearing Gu Changsheng’s answer, the faces of the Hidden World Clan people instantly darkened.
Gadatu, unfamiliar with Gu Changsheng and Zhou Mu, was instead filled with confusion, glanced nervously behind him, nudged the person next to him, and frowned, asking, "What? Do you know these two people?"
"Know them! It’s more than knowing! The relationship is quite deep!" The Hidden World Clan member who was asked by Gadatu gritted his teeth and replied.
Especially when mentioning the words "relationship is quite deep," the hatred made even Gu Changsheng, the person involved, feel a bit creepy!
Upon hearing this, Gadatu immediately nodded, "Good to know them, so lend a hand here and block a bit! What are you standing around for? Waiting for those damned things to catch up? Keep running!"
Upon hearing Gadatu’s words, Gu Changsheng frowned immediately!
Damn, this Yanmen Pass defensive general sure speaks impudently, what does he mean by asking them to block?
Not to mention using us as scapegoats to block something, simply put, damn it, you’re saying it so matter-of-fact, have you asked this lady’s opinion?
This guy is really presumptuous!
Pursed lips, Gu Changsheng wore a look of indifference!
While hearing this, the faces of the Hidden World Clan, who were already in panic, instantly lost color, as they faced the chilling wind swirling from the bottom of the Intestine-Breaking Cliff, each urgently spoke, "Escape? Escape where? In front is a cliff, where can we escape?"
"We’re dead! We’re really going to die this time!"
"The heavens are really determined to destroy us!"
"No way out, no way out, we’ve already reached a dead end..."
"..."
The people of the Hidden World Clan showed expressions of despondency greater than despair, continuously lamenting like they’ve given up all hope, almost wailing for their lives!
While the people of the Hidden World Clan were full of complaints, reminiscing and awaiting death, Gu Changsheng noticed something different about Gadatu, the defensive general of Yanmen Pass!
Gadatu, looking serious, though nervous about what’s behind him, didn’t stop his actions!
From the large bundle strapped on his back, he untangled a rope and skillfully tied it to the big rock where Gu Changsheng hid, and seeing Gu Changsheng and Zhou Mu blocking his move, Gadatu anxiously urged, "Move aside!"
With that, he deftly moved around the rock in front of Gu Changsheng and then headed to the edge of the Intestine-Breaking Cliff!
The whistling wind at the bottom of the cliff stirred the clothes of Gadatu standing at the cliff’s edge, making him, as he clung to the rope, sound like a snapping flag in the wind, his clothes fluttering, and the fur-trimmed hair bun on his head in complete disarray!
"Gadatu, what are you doing?" Finally, immersed in the sorrow of impending death, the people of the Hidden World Clan noticed Gadatu’s actions and asked.
Gadatu, standing at the edge of Intestine-Breaking Cliff, frowned upon hearing this, and said solemnly, "You all may wait for death, but I won’t! Before coming to the Valley of Forgetfulness on an adventure for treasure, didn’t you do any homework? This here is Intestine-Breaking Cliff, a true dead end! Don’t you Central Plains have an old saying, ’find life in a desperate situation?’ If you don’t want to die, secure the ropes on you and follow me down the cliff! If you want to wait here to die, we won’t stop you! Do as you please!"
With that, Gadatu kicked off, and his whole person disappeared from the view of everyone, leaving only the rope tied to the big rock, transmitting the sense of weight falling!
The people of the Hidden World Clan saw this and immediately moved closer to the edge of Intestine-Breaking Cliff; they cautiously leaned forward to look down at the bottom, then glanced at each other, hesitating...
Descending the cliff...
Waiting for death...
Right now, they had only these two paths to choose from!
But looking at this steep and unfathomably deep Intestine-Breaking Cliff, suddenly a trace of bitter smile appeared on their faces...
Looking at the appearance of Intestine-Breaking Cliff, it doesn’t seem like there’s a way out...
However, Gadatu was right, in desperation lies the possibility of life, and this Intestine-Breaking Cliff is already their only chance and hope for survival!
Waiting here only leads to death, but descending to the bottom of the cliff might offer a way!
A gamble!
A gamble at the cost of life!
The Elders of the Hidden World Clan only exchanged a glance for a moment before making a decision!
"Secure the ropes, everyone, descend the cliff!"
With a command, the remaining disciples of the Hidden World Clan quickly moved into action!
In front of Gu Changsheng and Zhou Mu, the ropes were tied one by one, and soon, the busy people of the Hidden World Clan pushed them to the side...
Gu Changsheng seeing this, holding a half-eaten rabbit leg in one hand and supporting his chin with the other, blinked his particularly innocent big eyes, watching with interest...
Oh my god!
What are they doing?
What are they doing?
Are they treating me as air?
With a twitch at the corner of his mouth, Gu Changsheng couldn’t help but say to himself, damn it, she didn’t believe it, that these people from the Hidden World Clan really dared to ignore her existence and descend the cliff right under her nose!
However, soon, Gu Changsheng discovered that the brains of the people from the Hidden World Clan were absolutely filled with straw!
Because, as soon as they had secured their ropes, they each started descending to the bottom of the cliff one by one...
Seeing this, on Gu Changsheng’s bright face, the expression twitched slightly!
Oh, that’s a slap in the face!
This truly is a glaring slap in the face!
They really dared! 𝐟𝕣𝕖𝐞𝐰𝕖𝚋𝐧𝗼𝚟𝐞𝕝.𝗰𝐨𝐦
Emerging from behind the big rock, Gu Changsheng stood at the edge of Intestine-Breaking Cliff, leaned forward, and looked down, only to see a dozen figures slowly becoming little black dots, rapidly descending...
With a face full of indignation, Gu Changsheng took a bite of the rabbit leg in his hand, while in his other hand, a red glow flickered and danced...
Crimson Dagger, Chonghua!
"Damn, they are really prepared! Even brought ropes so neatly! But, if I were to swing this dagger down..." The Chonghua Dagger spun in her hand, transforming into flickering red light, Gu Changsheng, raising an eyebrow, looked at Zhou Mu with an evil grin and said, "Evildoer, do you think if I swung this dagger down, those people from the Hidden World Clan would end up as dumplings in the pot, each one falling directly to the bottom of the cliff, smashing into meat paste?"
Thinking about it, the possibility is really quite large!
It’s really hard to understand how the people from the Hidden World Clan and that Gadatu were so audacious, daring to descend the cliff so blatantly in their presence. This clearly exposed their life-and-death lifeline to them, didn’t it?
If wanting to eliminate the Hidden World Clan’s people appearing in the world, this is an excellent opportunity. Gu Changsheng only needs to swing the dagger down, ensuring that no one from the Hidden World Clan would survive, with no need to worry about leaving anyone alive!
However, in the face of this excellent opportunity, Gu Changsheng hesitated!
She originally worried about how to trick these people of the Hidden World Clan to go down to the bottom of Intestine-Breaking Cliff to pave the way for her, but now it has been simplified -- Gu Changsheng’s pre-prepared persuasive lines were completely unused, and even the meanest method of non-violently kicking them down one by one had no place to be employed, as the Hidden World Clan people had already voluntarily and consciously gone down themselves...
Right under her nose...
Should this be called getting what one wishes for? Or should it be called things being contrary to one’s wishes?
However, soon, Gu Changsheng realized, oh my god, now is completely not the time to be tangled up in this, because, the subordinates of Gadatu, at the back, had finally managed to escape from the dense forest, and with their embarrassed fleeing figures, Gu Changsheng saw a mass of black things...
