Time Travel: The Best Doctor in Ancient Times-Chapter 667 - 510: Please Be Sure to Go to the Southern Border

Who was it just now, stubbornly refusing to go onto the suspension bridge and lying on the ground as if life depended on it? And look at them now, striding with easy confidence as if they owned the place!

Truly asking for a beating!

Dammit, by some unlucky twist of fate, she became their human cable car! Let’s not even mention how miserable that was!

However, Gu Changsheng knew that after this, they would never fear heights again!

Without reaching Bashu, one can’t comprehend the height of the mountains and the steepness of the cliffs!

It sounds breezy when talked about, but only by actually being in the midst of it can one truly understand the natural grandeur, the vertiginous cliffs that are thousands of feet high. One careless step could mean no remains left!

There’s a reason why Bashu and Southern Border are said to be lands of barren mountains and treacherous waters!

Natural dangers are far more shocking than an army of thousands bearing down, creating a much deeper sense of awe!

With two people leisurely strolling in the clouds in hand, Gu Changsheng’s group took half a Shichen to finally cross the twenty-plus-mile-long suspension bridge of the Heavenly Path.

Past the suspension bridge was the entrance into the Land of Bashu!

Seeing Granny Wu Shan leading the way in front, soldiers guarding the stone cave at the end of the bridge stepped out to salute, each of them holding a crossbow.

On seeing this, Gu Changsheng couldn’t help but glance sideways.

The peril of the suspension bridge was self-evident; these soldiers, standing with their crossbows at the end of the bridge could easily cause trouble if those on the bridge behaved suspiciously. They didn’t even need to be particularly accurate with their shots—just by disturbing their balance, causing them to slip, the victims would fall into an abyss from which there was no return!

This... was having the advantage of time and terrain!

With Granny Wu Shan leading them, they encountered no obstacles and began to continue along the path hewn from the cliffside.

Pines hung upside down, clouds drifted above their feet, and beneath lay abysmal depths...

This time, following them, Yuan Bao and Little Monk Bu Jie truly weren’t afraid. Yuan Bao, the carefree Xiao Er Que, still chatted and laughed along the way, completely forgetting his fear of heights!

The mountain trail wound in countless turns, yet Gu Changsheng and Zhou Mu made sure to remember every twist and turn of the way back carefully.

Because they knew that the secret path Granny Wu Shan was leading them through was indeed the quickest shortcut to navigate out of these mountains!

"It’s right here!" Pointing to a spot that looked like any ordinary rock, Granny Wu Shan looked towards the two with a nonchalant expression, "Did you memorize this path well?"

Upon hearing this, Gu Changsheng quickly nodded.

Of course, she needed to memorize it—she was no fool!

Granny Wu Shan raised her hand to touch the rock wall and slid it left and right.

As she moved, a roughly two-meter-square section of the rock wall also began to move, emitting sounds of intricate mechanical maneuvering...

Gu Changsheng and Zhou Mu exchanged a glance, realizing that this was a mechanism and started watching even more carefully. They committed to memory every single move Granny Wu Shan made without any error.

Slide half a foot to the left, five inches to the right, then one foot left, and retract four and a half inches right... and so on, back and forth...

"Boom"

As Granny Wu Shan withdrew her hand, the two-meter-square section of the wall shifted aside as if pushed by a great force, revealing a long corridor...

Seeing this, the corners of Gu Changsheng’s mouth twitched involuntarily.

Damn, one must never underestimate the wisdom of the ancients—this was clearly an ancient version of sliding doors!

Two words: Awesome!

With Granny Wu Shan leading them, the group entered the corridor.

The corridor was dark as night, but every few meters a faint glimmer of light was visible. Gu Changsheng was astounded by the lanterns lit along the stone walls.

Damn, there was no need for anyone to light them!

Inside the corridor was a smell of decay, and it was empty—clearly, unless necessary, few people would traverse this passageway.

But the lanterns were still lit!

Could these be the legendary Ever-bright Lanterns?

Gu Changsheng took a deep breath through her nose to calm the trembling in her heart. Damn, weren’t Ever-bright Lanterns supposed to exist only in legends, in ancient tombs and stone chambers? Yet here she was, witnessing them with her own eyes!

The world truly is full of wonders!

Gu Changsheng, with a worm bred on her forehead, felt she was no longer surprised by strange sights; they were just a bit odd, that’s all!

"Once you enter Bashu, do not speak carelessly of witchcraft! Yundu Jinchuan City, protected by the Ancestral Witch, harbors all kinds of evil people. Ordinary looking people could be heinous demons in disguise, living incognito among us. You must watch your words and actions carefully!" Granny Wu Shan, walking in front, turned back to speak and then looked at Gu Changsheng again, "Of course, this doesn’t apply to you. In the Land of Bashu, no one will harm you in the slightest."

"Uh..." Hearing this, Gu Changsheng was at a loss for words.
