Liu Yao squinted her eyes slightly, gradually opened them, and saw the woman beside her who was busy cooking medicine.

I looked around and found myself lying in a simple cottage.

Liu Yao couldn't help but wonder a little, and said to herself:

"Am I not in the sea of swords? How did it end up here? ”

Pulling out the palm of his hand and looking at the shallow indentations left, he felt that there was no pain in his feet, Liu Yao wanted to get up and go to the ground, but he still felt dizzy, so he had to sit on the edge of the bed.

The woman in the grass house heard the sound behind her, turned her head and saw that Liu Yao had already gotten up and sat on the edge of the bed, and hurriedly asked with concern:

"Childe, are you awake?"

Liu Yao suddenly remembered, the person in front of him was the one who gave him the herb to stop bleeding that day, and he didn't react at that time, but he was rude, but he only remembered that he fell from the iron coffin in the sea of fire that day, and he was unconscious, and when he woke up and saw this woman, he thought that she had saved himself, and hurriedly thanked:

"Thank you, girl, for saving your life!"

Meng Yining burst out laughing when she heard this, and said:

"I didn't save you, it's my master."

Liu Yao was confused and asked again:

"I wonder who the girl's master is?"

Meng Yining began to cook the medicine again, and replied: "Master went out to help you collect medicine, he should be back soon, you can ask him." ”

Liu Yao nodded sneeringly.

"Why don't you ask me who I am?" Meng Yining blinked her eyes and asked Liu Yao again, and immediately felt a little inappropriate for her boldness.

"I don't know what the girl is called?" Liu Yao was stunned for a moment before asking.

"My name is Meng Yining, just call me Yining." Meng Yining had already cooked the medicine, put it in a bowl, and walked towards Liu Yao.

"Miss Yining, let's do it myself!" Liu Yao stretched out his hand to pick up the bowl in Meng Yining's hand.

"Childe's body is weak, sit and don't move, or I'll feed you, if you don't take care of your body, how can you bring the soldiers back to save the Son of Heaven?" Meng Yining had already scooped up the decoction with a spoon and blew it and sent it to Liu Yao's mouth.

Liu Yao was not hypocritical, and quietly drank the medicine that Meng Yining fed him.

It's just that Meng Yining's words just now reminded him of the purpose of his trip to Nanzhong, and hurriedly asked anxiously:

"Miss Yining, how long have I been in a coma?"

Meng Yining replied: "I fell from the sea of fire that day, and I have been in a coma for three days now. ”

When Liu Yao heard Meng Yining's words, she didn't drink the scared medicine anymore, and immediately got up to leave.

"Where is Childe going?" Meng Yining saw Liu Yao get up and wanted to leave, and asked anxiously.

"The Son of Heaven and the hundred officials are still in the hands of the Wei army, I have been delayed in Nanzhong for a long time, I can't delay any longer, I have to go back quickly! What about Guan Xiu and Zhang Zun who came with me? Liu Yao couldn't sit still anymore.

"Your injuries haven't healed yet, the two generals, Guan Xiu and Zhang Zun, went with the master to collect medicine, and you can't leave until the master comes back." Meng Yining said with some seriousness.

"No, I have to go to them, I need to go back to Jianning quickly." Liu Yao began to get up and walk outside, ignoring Meng Yining's dissuasion.

Liu Yao had just walked out of the door not far when he heard someone calling out to him.

"Where does Your Highness want to go?" I saw an old man with white hair asking slowly.

The old man was followed by Guan Xiu and Zhang Zun, both of whom were carrying straw baskets, obviously just after collecting medicine.

"Childe, are you awake?" Zhang Zun and Guan Xiu saw Liu Yao and hurriedly walked over and asked.

When Liu Yao saw this old man, she knew in her heart that this must be the master Meng Yining was talking about, so she hurriedly thanked him:

"Thank you for the old gentleman's life-saving grace, but I have been bothering for a long time, and I still have important things to do, and I will definitely repay the old gentleman's kindness in the future." After that, Liu Yao pulled Zhang Zun and Guan Xiu to leave.

Zhang Zun and Guan Xiu looked embarrassed.

"Childe and slow!" The old man said.

"Is there anything else the old gentleman has to do?" Liu Yao turned around and asked.

"Childe has been injured for the past few days, so why rush at this time. and follow the old man into the grass house. The old man went into the grass house on his own.

Liu Yao hesitated for a moment, and then followed in with Zhang Zunguan Xiu.

When Liu Yao ran out despite the dissuasion, Meng Yining was about to go out to catch up, but when he saw the master coming in, he hurriedly asked:

"Master, have you come back from collecting medicine? Liu Yao's son woke up and was about to leave, but I didn't stop him. ”

"Yining prepares tea, Childe has returned." The old man commanded.

Later, when he saw Liu Yao and Zhang Zunguanxiu who followed up, he answered the call and went to make tea.

The old man, Liu Yao and Guan Zhang sat around the table in the grass house, and the grass house, which was already small, looked a little crowded.

After a while, Meng Yining had already boiled tea and brought it to the table, and the old man motioned for Meng Yining to sit down as well.

The old man only sipped the tea quietly, Liu Yao couldn't wait any longer, and immediately asked:

"What did the old gentleman call me back? If there is nothing important, please let me leave, and I will definitely come to thank the old man for saving his life in the future. ”

After a long time, the old man slowly opened his mouth and asked:

"Your Highness is in a hurry to go back and rescue the Han family's Son of Heaven and Hundred Officials?"

Liu Yao saw that the old man called himself His Royal Highness, and he must have known himself, so he no longer concealed it, and replied bitterly:

"If Zibaiguan is still in the hands of Wei Jun today, how can I not be anxious?"

"Then His Highness has no soldiers and horses, and all the soldiers of Jianning County cannot be transferred, and the strength of the Wei army is so different, what does His Highness rely on to save the Son of Heaven of the Han family?" The old man asked again.

"Breaking through the three passes of the ancestral system in Nanzhong, but the king of Nanzhong refuses to borrow troops, and now he can only rely on General Jiang to lead the army back to Chengdu as soon as possible!" Liu Yao sighed and replied.

"What the king of Nanzhong is afraid of is only the people of the ancestral system of Nanzhong, and the people of foreign clans are not allowed to hold the armor of Nanzhong, if His Royal Highness becomes a member of the royal family of Nanzhong, he can justifiably lead the soldiers and horses of Nanzhong!" The old man looked at Liu Yao and said.

"Don't joke about the old gentleman, I am a Han in Shuzhong, how to become the royal family of Nanzhong, there is no need to say what the old gentleman is joking." Liu Yao's face was unpleasant.

Guan Xiu suddenly laughed and said: "Your Highness, you don't know yet, Meng Qiu, the king of Nanzhong, has already announced to Nanzhong that he will promise his daughter to His Highness, and His Highness will be able to lead the soldiers and horses of Nanzhong in the name of righteousness from now on!" ”

The old man nodded, smiling silently.

Zhang Zun suddenly looked at Liu Yao with a blank expression on his face, and said, "Your Highness was going to drag me and wait for me to leave just now, don't you want to admit this family business?" ”

Liu Yao reacted a little at this time, this is indeed a good way, but wouldn't it be a loss for him to go up the knife mountain and go down to the sea of fire, and he didn't know what the daughter of the king of Nanzhong looked like, so he smiled bitterly and said:

"This Nanzhong King Meng Qiu, and the prince Meng Tai, that look, Meng Qiu's daughter must also be a barbarian girl who can't marry five or three rough."

"Meng Qiu is very calculating, and now he stuffed his daughter who couldn't marry to me."

Guan Xiu immediately held back a smile and didn't dare to speak, and Zhang Zun was also stunned.
