Time Travel: The Best Doctor in Ancient Times-Chapter 1303 - 964: Evildoer, How Did You Get Panda Eyes?
The night in Licheng City was filled with the howling northern winds, the moonlight like water illuminating different scenes in different places!
Inside the inn, it was extremely quiet. Some slept like pigs, some diligently perused memorials outside their jurisdiction!
But this feeling, only those who experience it can truly understand!
All one seeks is willing acceptance!
Meanwhile, at Licheng City’s Dark Market, with the underground auction over and the night feast filled with song and dance concluded, everyone dispersed...
The people were gone, but the legend of this night at the Pass Auction was just beginning...
Counterfeits becoming authentic pieces bought at base price with discerning eyes was nothing noteworthy in the Itinerant World’s eyes, but the appearance of a Master of the Transformative Realm changes everything, especially when this master belongs to the Hidden World Clan!
Moreover, not just one appeared, but two in succession!
The second one even immediately defeated the first!
They have never seen a master self-destruct their Spirit Body in a lifetime, let alone an ordinary person who’d consider seeing just one Master of the Transformative Realm a grand fortune!
Adding to this, Wang Buer, the host of the Border Pass Auction, shamelessly stole from himself, buying trivial items...
All of these, combined, turned this year’s Pass Auction into a legend, didn’t they?
News and rumors spread like wildfire in Licheng City! 𝒻𝑟𝘦𝘦𝘸ℯ𝒷𝑛𝘰𝓋ℯ𝘭.𝘤𝘰𝘮
And there’s a faint trend of escalation!
This night was destined to be a turbulent one!
Wang Buer stood at the Black Shop’s entrance, watching the excited, radiant crowd leave, listening to their bustling chatter, and couldn’t help but turn to Yan Qingcheng with a wry smile, saying, "Do you think when our master and the son-in-law’s identities are revealed, will this year’s auction become part of the historical record? Would I, Wang Buer, by chance, become a historical fool?"
Yan Qingcheng, hearing this, gave Wang Buer a glance, nodded confidently, and said, "Based on the master and the son-in-law’s identities, their every word and action are recorded in the Imperial Records by the historian. However, now the master and son-in-law are outside the palace..."
"So, does that mean I don’t have to be a historical fool?" Upon hearing this, Wang Buer immediately asked expectantly.
God bless, he’d rather not become the first huge fool in history with this kind of reputation!
Under Wang Buer’s hopeful gaze, Yan Qingcheng shook his head, his handsome face full of seriousness, "Of course not!"
"That’s good, that’s good!" Wang Buer instantly sighed in relief, patting his chest.
"Of course, it will be in the Imperial Records!" But before Wang Buer could fully relax, Yan Qingcheng continued, "The Imperial Records document the emperor’s deeds. Although the historian was absent today, there will definitely be future records added! Rumors are as fierce as tigers, and the future additions will undoubtedly be more detailed!"
Upon hearing this, Wang Buer was instantly filled with grief!
He raised a trembling hand, pointing at Yan Qingcheng, with an expression of crying tearsless, "Yan Qingcheng! You’re doing this on purpose! Intentionally hitting me! I won’t let you off!"
With that, he charged towards Yan Qingcheng as if ready for a grand fight!
"Stop fooling around!" Seeing this, Yan Qingcheng swiftly reached out, grabbing Wang Buer’s misbehaving hand and soothingly said, "Actually, this might not be a bad thing!"
"A good thing? What nonsense! The Dark Market made the master and son-in-law cause chaos, almost wrecking the auction house! My Pass Auction’s reputation spanning thousands of years! Ruined in my hands, how can I explain this to the Empress Dowager!" Thinking of today’s chaos made Wang Buer feel like crashing into a wall.
"However, the consecutive appearances of Masters of the Transformative Realm, especially one self-destructing their Spirit Body, will make the Pass Auction renowned in the Itinerant World, becoming a hit! Surely the next auction will be highly sought after..." Yan Qingcheng, hearing this, showed a slight smile on his handsome face, the gentlemanly aura captivating and eye-catching.
Upon hearing this, Wang Buer’s eyes lit up!
"You’re right! Look at me being so silly because of our master! Why didn’t I think of this?" Slapping his thigh, Wang Buer was extremely excited, too busy to care whether Yan Qingcheng was charming or not, to turn and dash into the Black Shop, shouting to his subordinates, "People, people! Go out! Blend with the Itinerant World’s people, go fan some flames..."
Fanning flames, Wang Buer was adept at it!
Easy as pie!
Watching undercover pawns responding to orders in twos and threes, and the waiter-type person commanding inside the Black Shop, Yan Qingcheng, standing at the entrance, still held the posture of restraining Wang Buer, his bright as jade complexion slightly stiffening...
"City Lord Yan, don’t just stand there. When there’s profit to be made, my lord won’t even see you!" An undercover pawn passing by Yan Qingcheng couldn’t help but remind, speaking in a low voice, "In my master’s eyes, Silver is the most important, and you, at best, are second most important!"
Upon hearing this, Yan Qingcheng’s expression darkened even more.
"City Lord Yan, please restrain your grief!" Leaving these words, the undercover pawn patted Yan Qingcheng’s shoulder brotherly, then turned and disappeared outside the Black Shop, going off to fan the flames.
Yan Qingcheng’s gentlemanly face was dark!
Comparable to the night!
But Wang Buer was totally oblivious, instinctively thinking that tomorrow he must quickly deliver all the items his son-in-law had won at the auction to the inn, not missing a single piece! Absolutely no shortselling!
Only then would he be living up to his master and son-in-law, working so hard to provide talking points and publicity for his Pass Auction!
Therefore, while Gu Changsheng was sound asleep, completely unaware, news about the Border Pass Auction was spreading like wildfire through the night...
The night passed uneventfully!
The next morning, when the sun was already high in the sky, a ray of sunlight filtered through the window lattice, shining on the cocooned figure in bed...
With long hair like ink scattered around, Gu Changsheng, lying on the soft pillow, blinked several times, exerting great effort to finally muster enough strength to open her eyes...
She got out of bed, put on her shoes, and walked out of the suite like a ghost...
Then, upon seeing the scene in the hotel’s main hall, Gu Changsheng was instinctively stunned...
Her brain suddenly cleared up significantly...
Mouth agape, looking utterly incredulous...
Godfather!
These neatly arranged stacks of memorials...
This...
Opened one up and looked, it was annotated!
Opened another one and looked, also annotated!
And what’s more, the annotations were clearly very professional, way more professional than she could ever be!
Sorted and stacked neatly!
"Oh my, the evildoer is not human! Did he really review all of them?" Gu Changsheng blinked her big open mouth, saying with an expression of disbelief.
So many memorials, if it were her, forget overnight, even if given half a month, she might not be in the mood to finish reading them, okay?
Yet her evildoer just managed to review them all like this!
Amazing!
This is truly not human!
"You’re awake?" A cool voice sounded behind Gu Changsheng.
Upon hearing, Gu Changsheng immediately turned back, and after seeing the tall figure at the door, and clearly seeing his face, she instinctively exclaimed, "Oh my Godfather! Why do you have panda eyes, evildoer?"
Too much alike!
Really looked too much like panda eyes!
Zhou Mu was startled at the remark, instinctively raised his hand, covering his own eyes.
Xiao Cui, who was following behind Zhou Mu with a water basin, upon hearing this, immediately showed her discontent, giving her master a sidelong glance, and spoke with all due seriousness, "Mistress, you have the nerve to say so? Who was sleeping like a pig, making only the son-in-law work all night long?"
"Hehe..." Gu Changsheng, upon hearing this, awkwardly rubbed her nose and laughed dryly, "Well, I just couldn’t resist, fell asleep accidentally! Fell asleep accidentally! But you didn’t wake me up!"
"When this maid got up early, I saw the son-in-law was still busy reviewing memorials and wanted to wake you up to help, but the son-in-law wouldn’t allow it..." Placing the basin properly, Xiao Qiu shot her mistress a glance with the corner of her eyes and said softly, "It’s only because the son-in-law was worried about you..."
"Hehe..." Gu Changsheng, upon hearing this, laughed so brightly like spring blossoms, running over to her evildoer without hesitation, praising without reservation, "Evildoer, you’re amazing! So many memorials, and you managed to finish reviewing them overnight! Some people are just born to be rulers, unlike me, a half-baked monk for whom even reciting scriptures is tough! Evildoer, you’re my idol!"
Zhou Mu, upon hearing this, glanced helplessly at the little woman beside him, slightly curled his lips and said, "I thought you would say, some people are destined for a life of toil..."
"Ahem..." Being teased by her evildoer like this, Gu Changsheng immediately felt awkward!
But who is Gu Changsheng?
She has a thick skin!
Thus, she immediately licked her smiling face and said with confidence, "How could I? How could I have such an unethical thought! Evildoer, you must believe me, I only honestly wanted to help you go through the hardships together and handle the memorials, it’s just that...it’s just that...it’s just that the allure of the old Duke of Zhou was too great, I succumbed and fell asleep...And those memorials, full of trifles, were so boring, I think the bunch of wine sacks and rice bags in the Southern Country need to be knocked around a bit...I..."
"Hmm?" Zhou Mu, hearing this, cast a sidelong glance at his stretch-the-truth little woman.
"I can cure your panda eyes!" Feeling a bit guilty under her evildoer’s gaze, Gu Changsheng hurriedly spoke with a serious face...
