Time Travel: The Best Doctor in Ancient Times-Chapter 1293 - 955: The Stratagem of Substituting the Plum for the Peach
Hiding in the shadows, Wang Buer saw his master walking over, and couldn’t help but breathe a long sigh of relief!
Heaven’s mercy, his heart had been hanging ever since his master appeared at the Black Shop. Now, after many twists and turns and much dust settled, he felt as if he had narrowly escaped death!
God knows, when Dugu Jieao showed up, he thought his little life would be over here!
Luckily, luckily now he’s escaped a calamity, and the clouds parted to reveal the moon!
So, Wang Buer promptly ran towards Gu Changsheng and Zhou Mu, bowing and scraping like sending off gods, with an ingratiating face he began, "Congratulations master and son-in-law, felicitations master and son-in-law, you’ve got the Geomancy Map Fragments from the Divine Demise Land, wish fulfilled and returning fully loaded!"
Isn’t it a full load back?
Our son-in-law certainly bought quite a few items at the auction!
Just don’t know who’s going to pay for all this silver!
Wang Buer felt a bit apprehensive inside!
"Not only that, master and son-in-law also dealt with those unpleasant sights, gave those behind-the-scenes a harsh lesson, master and son-in-law unparalleled, mighty..." The more anxious he was inside, the more fluent Wang Buer’s tongue became, the flattery hitting like slaps!
Gu Changsheng was dumbfounded by Wang Buer’s words, couldn’t help but roll his eyes to the heavens ungracefully, corners of his mouth turned up as he said, "That’s fake!"
"What?" Wang Buer was stunned upon hearing this, couldn’t believe it as he asked, "Fake? What’s fake? The Geomancy Map Fragments from the Divine Demise Land are fake?"
That shouldn’t be!
The Geomancy Map Fragments have been through our son-in-law’s hands, and if our son-in-law didn’t even have that much discernment, then he wouldn’t still be the famous Undefeated War God, right?
Gu Changsheng heard this, couldn’t help but turn to look at his evildoer.
Receiving the gaze from his little woman, Zhou Mu smiled and nodded, "The Geomancy Map Fragments are indeed genuine."
Gu Changsheng heard this, and a hint of a smile showed in his eyes.
"What?" Wang Buer heard this, but was even more lost, looking at this and that with a face of bewilderment, stammering, "The Geomancy Map Fragments are real, then what is fake?"
Already at the door of the room, Gu Changsheng heard this, immediately raised his hand to remove the half mask from his face, revealing a bright face full of mockery, turned back with certainty and said, "The person is fake!"
"Person?" Wang Buer heard this, and was immediately a bit stupefied, looking at his seemingly enlightened master and son-in-law with a puzzled expression, suddenly feeling that his usually clever mind wasn’t quite working!
As the few entered the room, Wang Buer slightly recovered from confusion, looked with a blank face and said, "Master, please stop joking, how can a person be fake..."
Sitting down on the seat in the middle of the room, Gu Changsheng raised an eyebrow, on his confident face said, "The person is fake, the one who handed the Geomancy Map from the Divine Demise Land to me, don’t you think he died a bit too easily?"
"Huh?" Wang Buer heard this, and immediately stared wide-eyed in disbelief.
"Evildoer, is the thing with that person’s aura in hand?" Gu Changsheng looked at the silly face of Wang Buer and shook his head, then turned to look at his evildoer with a hint of anticipation.
"Whenever have I not fulfilled your wish?" Zhou Mu heard this, a hint of a smile overflowed on his god-like face, instantly charming, then turned over and took a strand of hair from his sleeve pocket...
Seeing this, Gu Changsheng immediately stood up from the chair in surprise and walked towards his evildoer.
Meanwhile, Wang Buer, deep in thought, was counting on his fingers and muttering, "The person is fake? The person is fake! The one who handed the Geomancy Map Fragments to master is fake, then who is real? The real one should also be in the auction! Master, master!"
Wang Buer thought of this, immediately ran to Gu Changsheng, worriedly said, "Master, since Sect Leader Zhou acted as the scapegoat, the real one behind the scenes must still be in the auction, I’ll take people to search, even if he turns into a rat or a fly among the crowd, I’ll find him!"
"Search? Find?" Holding the Breath Seeking Pearl in one hand, and the strand of hair in the other, upon hearing Wang Buer’s voice, Gu Changsheng immediately looked back and said, "Are you stupid? Are you trying to alert the prey? I caught a self-proclaimed smart person, it’s not easy, if you get him killed again, where am I supposed to find Fufeng Tianlan’s trace?"
"Master?" Wang Buer heard this, his face immediately looked somewhat awkward, as if his good intentions had backfired, he couldn’t help but touch his nose. Wang Buer looked at the hair and Breath Seeking Pearl in his master’s hand and couldn’t help but ask, "Master, have you really figured out who the real person is?"
"Sure did!" Gu Changsheng heard this, waved the hair in his hand, raised an eyebrow and said, "It’s the owner of this hair, Sect Leader Tian of the Sword Immortal Sect!"
At this, Wang Buer was instantly shocked, took a step back involuntarily, and said with wide eyes, "Sect Leader Tian of the Sword Immortal Sect? How is that possible? How can it be him?"
"Why not?" Gu Changsheng snorted coldly and said, "The less likely it seems, the more possible it is! Out of everyone present, only he dared to speak righteously, thinking that by doing so, he could expose himself to the public and clear his name when I was pressuring that Qiang Zhou step by step. He grasped this common psychology of people, Wang Buer, you tell me, of all the people present, wasn’t it Sect Leader Tian that you least suspected?"
"...Yes!" Wang Buer heard this, still carrying a trace of disbelief, "Yes! I didn’t suspect him..."
"That settles it then?" Gu Changsheng heard this, curled his lips slightly, smiled and said, "Self-proclaimed clever people are very skilled at swapping things around, not only that, they are quite adept at confusing people’s perceptions, but unfortunately for him, he encountered me, mismatched wit with wisdom!"
In this world, there are never short of self-proclaimed clever people who end up trapping themselves, and Gu Changsheng was particularly delighted to meet such a person at this time!
"Too cunning! Really too cunning! I’ll go and arrest that old bastard right now! I..." Wang Buer finally connected the dots and woke up, he said angrily, feeling as though he was played like a pawn, which was absolutely insulting to him!
"Slap!"
Before Wang Buer could finish his harsh words, a small slap landed on his head.
Gu Changsheng glanced at him with an expression of angry disappointment, furiously saying, "Arrest? Arrest who? You idiot, you’re all talk and no action, you deserve my bullying!"
"Master..." Wang Buer heard this, suddenly feeling resentful.
How could his master speak so matter-of-factly about bullying him?
Such a saddening feeling!
Seeing Wang Buer’s silly and gloomy look, Gu Changsheng couldn’t help but think of his own chubby Yuan Bao. Though Wang Buer normally seemed a bit smarter and more handsome, that resentment was quite similar to his own Yuan Bao, so she stopped teasing him, showing the items in her hand proudly and said, "Open your eyes wide, what do you see? Breath Seeking Pearl and the hair of that person! Do you think that actor Sect Leader Tian is the biggest villain behind the scenes? I’ve already told you; I’m looking for a woman named Fufeng Tianlan, that surname Tian is just a self-righteous idiot! With his aura, the Breath Seeking Pearl can point us in the right direction, I’m curious to see what kind of ghost has been scheming against me!"
"Master..." Wang Buer heard this and suddenly showed a look of realization, quickly flattering and saying, "Master, you are wise and mighty, for thousands of years..."
"Slap!" Seeing his bootlicking, Gu Changsheng immediately raised her hand for another slap, waved her hand disdainfully and said, "Go away! Don’t waste my time on serious matters here!"
As she spoke, Gu Changsheng held the items and called her evildoer, "Come, come, let’s see how to use this Breath Seeking Pearl..."
"Place the item from the living person next to the Breath Seeking Pearl for three days, after three days, the pearl will emit light and point out the direction of the living person!" Zhou Mu, who had followed along, reached out to entwine the strand of hair on the Breath Seeking Pearl, then found a box, sealed it and set it aside, smiling.
Upon hearing this, Gu Changsheng immediately became displeased, pouting and saying, "Still need three days? Godfather, this Breath Seeking Pearl is really useless, huh?"
Her patience was never particularly good, definitely not good!
"Haha..." Zhou Mu chuckled at her words, raised his hand to rub Gu Changsheng’s little head, softly comforting her, "It’s a bit useless, but nonetheless, it’s a supreme treasure for inconspicuous tracking, you saw it, neither the intelligence nor vigilance of Sect Leader Tian is ordinary, even if we tracked personally, we might not guarantee to remain undetected!"
"So, if you tolerate for a while, we might have an unexpected harvest."
Gu Changsheng heard this, sighed and nodded, "Alright, this is the best now."
As her evildoer said, there are pros and cons, if Sect Leader Tian wasn’t so self-righteous thinking he could escape their gaze, they wouldn’t get this tracking opportunity, it’s already a pleasant surprise!
One must be content with life!
She definitely wouldn’t leave such a precious Breath Seeking Pearl unused and personally track Sect Leader Tian, if startled, it would be a great loss!
Thinking of this, Gu Changsheng couldn’t help but say to Wang Buer on the side, "You should act as if you know nothing about Sect Leader Tian, you must not give yourself away and cause trouble again."
