Slowly opened his eyes, only to feel hazy and confused, as if he had just woken up from a dream and had a dream......

The head is still aching, I want to reach out and touch it, but I can't make it, my hands are very heavy and I can't lift them, and I don't seem to have any sensation, and I can't feel my hands. . .

I wanted to turn my head to look around, but my neck was hard, numb, and I couldn't twist. I rolled my eyes and looked left and right, but I couldn't see anything.

Isn't it dawning? Isn't it dead yet? What a long night......

I closed my eyes again, and held back a slight headache to recall every scene, the sword light and sword shadow, the encirclement and the pursuit, were still very clear, as if they were being staged in front of my eyes.

After a long time, I fell asleep again, and it was a good thing to survive.

When I woke up again, it was dawn, and the sunlight was pouring in through the door on the left side of the bed, spreading on the floor, and some snowflakes were floating in and shining.

The thick gray sheet from the feet to the throat is probably made of hemp, very rough, but quite warm.

Through the dim light, we could see the handsome young man with a tired face, looking at the dark ceiling in a daze for a while, even though such a young man's well-cultivated eyebrows and quite handsome face were still visible, but a little thin.

Zhuge Liang reluctantly sat up, his right hand covering his head, which was still faintly painful, and the hair that had grown to his neck was a little messy. After a while, when he was in a better state, he took a closer look around.

It was a small room, and he was sitting on a bed that was more than eight feet long, with his right hand side next to the wall. At the foot of the bed was a storage box on the floor, which was dry dirt and covered with some specially smoothed stones, but more of a dirt space between the stones.

At the head of the bed, there was a bronze mirror standing on the ground on his left, and the luster of the mirror was even more yellow than that of ordinary copper mirrors.

Overall, this room is supposed to be a bedroom, and it is extremely narrow. Put down a bed, a bronze mirror, a storage box, and the empty space is the ground that is only eight feet from the door to the bed.

When Zhuge Liang lifted the rough sheet, he felt that he was wearing a thin dress, and he couldn't help but wrap the hemp sheet around himself again, so that he could get warmer.

Then he was about to get out of bed, and as soon as his feet hit the ground, he hurriedly retracted again. Cool feet, the ground is cold, no wonder there will be snowflakes drifting in, presumably it is snowing outside.

Where the hell is this? Whose house is it? The master must be poor...... They don't even have to install the door, and they may still be the poor kind of people.

And just as he wondered who had saved him, a child of seven or eight years old appeared at the door, wearing straw sandals with woven cotton, which was made of silk to warm his feet. The body is coarse brown cloth, and it can be seen that there are more than two layers, and the outermost linen clothes are quite thick.

I saw that the child's cheeks were red and watery under the frozen hat, and when he saw Zhuge Liang waking up, he shouted with an innocent smile: "Auntie!" Big brother woke up, big brother woke up......"

The woman who was cooking heard the sound, wiped her hands with a cloth, and hurriedly rushed over, and the child was already sitting on the edge of Zhuge Liang's bed at this time.

"Are you awake? However, the medical staff said that you should not be able to move around yet, and that you would have to rest for a few more days before you could get out of bed. ”

The woman's cheeks were also quite red, and she was wearing no hat and a ball of cloth wrapped around it, which had the same warmth effect as a hat. Look at her face, she is in her early thirties and looks dignified. When you speak, you feel kind and kind-hearted.

Zhuge Liang was worried that no one could ask, he originally wanted to ask this kid, but now there is a better candidate: "May I ask here...... Also, how did I end up here? ”

"Big brother, you were picked up by my father, hee."

The child laughed and grabbed the conversation, but it was innocent and cute, and a little naughty.

"Naughty, good." The woman reprimanded the child, but there was still a sense of kindness on her face, and she said to Zhuge Liang again: "That's the case, my husband went out to run a business, and he saved you on the way home, and brought you back." ”

After that, the woman explained the situation to Zhuge Liang in detail, it turned out that the woman's surname was Ding, and the child's name was Diao Yu, playful, naughty, and also called Diao Naughty. He is also the leader of the children in the dock, and the bear is not good but also extremely cute.

The person who rescued him was Ding's husband - Diao Zheng, when Diao Zheng saw Zhuge Liang, he found that he was unconscious and fell on a meadow in a forest, if it weren't for Zhuge Liang's horse guarding him, Diao Zheng would not have found him.

And this bedroom is where Diao Yu sleeps on weekdays, because Zhuge Liang is injured and there is no spare room at home, so he has to sleep here temporarily.

It was also from Ding's mouth that Zhuge Liang learned that he had been in a coma for a few days. After Diao Zheng found him and rescued him, he drove for two days at the original planned speed of the caravan before returning home, and Zhuge Liang fell asleep for another day.

As for where this is, Ding told Zhuge Liang that this is Juyiwu, located in Changshan County, on a remote flat land in the northwest of Shangquyang, and the Five Elements Mountain (Taihang Mountains) is just west of Juyiwu.

Looking from the west watchtower of Juyiwu to the west, you can see the true face of the Five Elements Mountain, now it is the beginning of spring, and it snowed last night. A few more games, the Marble Mountains will be covered with white and flawless snowflakes, which will be even more gorgeous.

Zhuge Liang knew that the dock wall was a local self-defense building, which was mostly seen in the frontier area. However, now the world is in turmoil, and there are also these dock walls in the Central Plains, and there are quite a few of them.

The general dock wall is actually a wall around the perimeter of the house, similar to a kind of castle building, which he has seen many before.

The large dock wall is equivalent to a village, and the specific structure is to be surrounded by walls on all sides, and a deep ditch is dug on each side to block the invading enemy. There are watchtowers at the four corners of the wall, and the plank road is set up along the city wall between the watchtowers to communicate, and there is also a watchtower that is a large section higher than the dock wall in the dock.

The structure of the dock wall is different in various places, and it also changes due to the topography.

Since he is in the dock wall, there will be no danger to his life for the time being, presumably those who want to kill him will not chase him, so Zhuge Liang plans to recuperate here with peace of mind.

Ding still has to make breakfast, it is inconvenient to talk for a long time, although Zhuge Liang is awake, but his physical condition is still not good, and the weather is so cold, he needs to rest more, so Ding led the naughty brother who seemed to be reluctant to Zhuge Liang.

Naughty is also curious, and thinks that Zhuge Liang is fresh, after all, this is a desolate northern land, and there are very few people who come and go. Meeting someone he doesn't see on weekdays is definitely a very interesting thing for him to share with his friends.

After Ding left, Zhuge Liang lay down again, covered the hemp sheet tightly, and finally simply covered his head, it was indeed too cold.

He was probably the only one who survived...... He thought.

Then he decided not to think about it, just to think of it as a dream...... If that group doesn't chase after them, the most serious thing is to start all over again......

After half a ring, Diao Zheng, who went to the morning exercise, came home, and as soon as he entered the door, he pounced on the naughty. The naughty man had only grown to Diao Zheng's abdomen, he smiled innocently, looked up and said to Diao Zheng: "Daddy, big brother is awake." ”

Diao Zheng didn't wear much, he was also brown cloth made of linen, he wore a hat, his cheeks were slightly red, he was more than eight feet tall, and he was very strong.

He had just returned from the exercise early and was sweating a little, Diao was the militia leader of Juyiwu, and he was strong, so he became an instructor.

If he didn't go out to deliver goods, he would have to train the militia in the dock every morning, that is, to train them and improve the combat effectiveness of the Juyiwu militia. After all, there will still be thieves who come to attack Juyiwu from time to time, and if they can't defend Juyiwu, then their home will be gone.

Hearing that Zhuge Liang woke up, Diao Zheng didn't have time to rest first, so he went to Zhuge Liang to find him. Seeing that Zhuge Liang was in the sheet, he called him.

"Thank you Brother Diao for saving me!" After sitting up, Zhuge Liang thanked him, Diao Zheng was a few years older than Ding, and he looked very young, so Zhuge Liang called him brother.

"No thanks, I saw you lying unconscious in the bushes, with a few wounds on your body. brought you back, it can save people's lives, and it is also a virtue...... By the way, what the hell are you...... By the way, what's your name? ”

Diao Zheng's voice is a little rich, giving people a sense of reliability and responsibility.

"Under the surname Ge Mingzhuang, he is a map master, he encountered a group of robbers during the procession, and after being injured, he fled in a daze, but he was physically exhausted and planted." Zhuge Liang didn't intend to tell his real name, his identity and story were all made up, but there was no malice towards Diao Zheng in doing so.

After going through so many things, he can also see and feel no more about many things.

For many years, I have been using this fabricated pseudonym and the identity of the grapher just to hide my true identity, and have no other purpose. Of course, Diao Zheng would not doubt that in this era, it was in the north again, and there were more thieves, and Ge Zhuang's reason sounded fine.

When he escorted the goods, he also fought with thieves, but sometimes he would think that if there was no Jia family, maybe he would be the one who robbed and became a thief now, and the Ding family never married him, and the naughty did not exist.

After the two of them exchanged pleasantries for a while, when it was time for breakfast, they saw the naughty running in happily and calling, "Daddy, big brother...... A-Niang said she could eat it. ”

Diao Zheng turned around and smiled at Naughty, Zhuge Liang's pale face also showed a smile, but it was better for him not to get out of bed, and he didn't have any appetite, so he still rested in bed, and he couldn't eat with Naughty, only ate something in the back.

This inevitably makes the naughty a little lost, but the child, it comes and goes quickly, and it won't be sad all of a sudden. After eating a full meal, he ran to Zhuge Liang again and stayed for a morning.

Diao Zheng still had to be busy, and Ding was also going to the workshop to do things, and the two hurriedly told the naughty not to disturb the eldest brother's rest, and then went to work.

Without the restraint of his father, he was naughty and stunned not to give Zhuge Liang time to rest, asked a question for the morning, and talked to him for a morning. Zhuge Liang couldn't cry or laugh, this kid is really energetic, no wonder he is called "naughty".

What gave Zhuge Liang the most headache was that the naughty always asked him where he was from and where he was. He pulled up the things he was anxious to forget, but he was still very kind to naughty.

"Big brother, will the thieves who hurt you chase you here?"

"Oh, no, your father is so strong, let's not be afraid!"

In this way, Zhuge Liang recuperated in bed for two days, and almost every morning he was naughty to disturb him, and he was able to get out of bed on the third day.
