Hearing the shouts of some animals, Zhan Xiaolou no longer had the time to think about the unimaginable matter that happened before him. It was better to leave this place first. After all, preserving one's life was more important.

Resisting the pain in his knee, Zhan Xiaolou limped forward.

When she reached the woods, she saw two herbs that could rejuvenate the blood and dissolve blood. She quickly crushed them and placed them on her knees. Then she took off two pieces of cloth from her sleeve and wrapped them around her knees before continuing on her way.

There were quite a few wild fruits along the way. He ate some while walking, saving some of his physical strength.

Walking and walking, she was completely unfamiliar with this place. She didn't know how long she would have to walk before she could finally see him.

Zhan Xiaolou clenched his teeth, constantly telling himself to be strong.

The sky gradually darkened, and she knew that something terrifying was about to appear in the darkness. This mountain was almost in its primal state, and wild beasts definitely existed. Thinking of this, she quickened her pace.

The faint sounds of horse hooves clattering and the sound of a horse carriage being driven by a whip could be heard in front of them. Zhan Xiaolou felt a burst of joy in his heart. He couldn't care less and immediately ran in the direction of the horse hooves.

At this time, the sky was not completely dark yet. Zhan Chen saw the carriage driver in the faint light of the setting sun.

He was a tall, muscular woman in her forties or fifties. Although she was old, she looked like she was doing rough work, with skin that was rough, dark, and a face that was black and yellow. She must be a weather-beaten farmer, pulling a cart full of dried firewood.

Zhan Xiaolou suddenly jumped out from the bush and was startled. Zhan Xiaolou immediately bowed and asked, "Aunt, where are you going?"

The aunt sized up Zhan Chen from top to bottom with narrowed eyes before saying, "I've never seen you around here before. Who are you?"

"Auntie, I'm a foreigner. I've gotten lost here and I don't know how to get out. I need to ask you about some things." Zhan Xiaolou continued.

"It's almost dark, we can't stay here. We should hurry down the mountain, I worked late to cut logs and met you, you're lucky, get on the carriage, I'll take you down the mountain now."

After thanking him, Zhan Xiaolou climbed onto the pile of firewood and chatted with his aunt for a while.

"Aunt, why did you come home so late?"

The aunt sighed, "There's nothing I can do about it, child. My son bled a lot when he was giving birth a few days ago, and now he's weak, getting worse every day, he can't eat anymore, he's getting thinner and thinner. I'm really dying of anxiety, the town doctor said that he has to use some good tonics, but those tonics are too expensive, so I have to chop some firewood to sell as much as possible, sigh!"

Lou Cheng had been worried that he wouldn't be able to repay his aunt for being broke. Now that he had heard this, he knew what was going on.

"Aunt, I've learned some medical techniques, so I can help your son take a look. This will be your reward for bringing me out of the mountain."

When the aunt heard that, she turned her head and looked at Zhan Xiaolou with a smile. "That's great, that's great! I'll bring you directly to my house. It's already dark. You can stay for the night. I'll have my daughter cook something for you."

"Then... "Sorry for the trouble, Auntie."

"No trouble, no trouble. I'm really lucky to have met a doctor."

Lou Zigui smiled. "Auntie, I haven't asked you. What kind of place is this?"

"This is Yongning County's territory!" The aunt said casually.

Yongning County? Zhan Xiaolou had a bad feeling about this.

"Auntie, which country is this?"

The aunt laughed, "This is Canghai Country, Yongning County. My family lives in the nearby Lotus Village …"

The next few words that came out of Zhan Chen's mouth were now completely inaudible. The only thing that came back to his mind was Canghai Country's Canghai Country's Canghai Kingdom …
