The look in Nan Yanxi's eyes showed some kindness and some nostalgia.
It seemed that when she saw him, she saw Concubine Wen Guifei.
Thinking back to those days, Concubine Wen Gui was kind to others and never treated her servants like slaves.
Everyone works in her palace as if they were at home.
Concubine Wen Gui always treated the servants in the palace as friends and relatives.
This is why Lin Feng and Wenxiu suffered inhuman torture but never revealed the whereabouts of Nan Yanxi until their death.
Lao Zhou has already decided in his heart that since the young master wants to compete in the world.
Then he will do his best to pave the way for his little master.
"Sir, please feel free to do it boldly. I will come back to serve you as soon as possible!"
Although she was a little reluctant to give up, Nan Yanxi still nodded.
Lao Zhou left his hometown for decades for himself and his cheap wife, and his loyalty is evident.
Now that he wants to leave, it must be for his own sake.
There are naturally reasons for not telling yourself.
An old man, especially one who has followed his mother for many years.
I must never use my master's attitude towards his servants to ask him.
Then he nodded: "Okay, old Uncle Zhou, I have only one request, and that is to come back as soon as possible and come back safely."
"When...will you set off?"
"Okay! Old slave, take your orders!" Old Zhou solemnly agreed: "We are ready to set off now, but..."
As he said this, Lao Zhou turned his head and looked outside the village in confusion.
He murmured anxiously: "It stands to reason that it's time to come, right?"
It seems that he is waiting for someone.
Just as Nan Yanxi was about to ask a question, Ye Zhiyu's book boy Xuan'er suddenly ran in.
He saluted Ye Zhiyu and said: "Master, there is someone outside the door asking to see Senior Zhou."
Hearing this, Ye Zhiyu looked at Lao Zhou suspiciously and saw that he had no objection.
Then he turned around and told Xuan'er: "Since you are Senior Zhou's guest, please come in."
Hearing this, Xuan'er turned around and retreated.
Xiao Li, who was standing beside him, seemed to have thought of something and looked nervously at the door.
It didn't take much, and two people came in from the dusty place outside.
Nan Yanxi couldn't help but feel happy. Aren't these the two men of Xiao Li?
The two of them ran down the hall panting and saw Xiao Li at a glance.
He hurriedly greeted her: "Sister Li'er, are you okay?"
"I'm fine...how are you?"
"Oh, we brought the latest secret order from Commander Qin"
As he said that, Pang Dun took out a letter from his arms and handed it to her.
Look at the material of the letter and the unique black sealing wax on the seal.
Xiao Li confirmed that it was the secret order from the black-clothed guard, then opened it and read it carefully.
The order is also very simple, that is, let the three of them immediately stop the previous assassination mission.
Let them protect Nan Yanxi's safety instead.
In the letter, Qin Ge confirmed his identity as the fifth prince of Nanhai and the fact that Lao Zhou was his master.
Ask them to stay with Nan Yanxi and listen to orders at any time.
To put it bluntly, the three of them were allowed to serve as Nan Yanxi's subordinates.
The smart Xiao Li understood in his heart that this meant that his master Qin Ge was involved in the battle to win the rightful son in the South China Sea.
A new choice has been made.
Pang Dun gave the order to Xiao Li and took out two letters from his arms.
One is for Lao Zhou, and the other is for Nan Yanxi.
Nan Yanxi took the letter, opened it and read it.
It basically contains words of flattery and apology.
The letter stated that he was willing to surrender to Nan Yanxi and serve as an internal response during the general offensive.
Leave these three people behind and let him do whatever he wants.
Nan Yanxi smiled and then handed the letter to Lao Zhou.
"That way, I feel relieved." After reading the contents of the letter, Lao Zhou nodded with satisfaction.
He said to Nan Yanxi: "Sir, in this case, it's time for me to set off."
"So fast?"
Lao Zhou smiled and stood up: "Go quickly and come back quickly. Master, you must take care of yourself!"
Then he turned to the two of them and ordered: "You two, come here..."
The two of them didn't know what was going on and didn't dare to disobey, so they walked over in confusion.
Xiao Li behind him seemed to understand something, and hurriedly shouted to Lao Zhou pleadingly: "No!"
Before he finished speaking, Lao Zhou flashed forward and fed the two of them pills in the same way he had just dealt with Xiao Li.
Then, while the two of them were coughing, the power of the pills was introduced.
Warn them to serve them well and make no mistakes!
When he comes back, he will give them the antidote.
Nan Yanxi understood that this was Lao Zhou's guarantee for his own safety.
"Master, it's time for me to leave. Please take care of yourself, Master!"
Then he turned around and walked out, and everyone got up to see him off.
Xiao Li on the side was very anxious and shouted quickly: "Wait...wait a moment..."
"I also ask the senior to lift the restrictions on the junior, so that I can serve the young master with all my heart!"
"Oh yes, our family actually forgot about this."
When Lao Zhou heard this, he turned to look at Xiao Li and suddenly smiled cunningly.
He took out three pamphlets from his arms and handed them to Nan Yanxi.
He ordered: "Sir, these two thicker books contain the sword skills and mental skills of these golden and blood dragons."
"When you have nothing to do, you can practice and have fun."
"And this thinner one is the secret to unlocking her restrictions."
"According to the above instructions, run twice a day in the morning and evening, and it can be solved in three days."
Then he turned to look at Xiao Li: "If you can't figure it out, go and ask the young master!"
"But we remind you that if you don't untie it quickly, your meridians will shrink and your martial arts will be useless."
Before he finished speaking, Nan Yanxi pulled him aside.
He asked softly in confusion: "Old Uncle Zhou, why don't you just untie her? Why do you need me to come?"
"Besides, the poison-suppressing medicine you gave the three of them is not enough, right?"
Lao Zhou smiled sinisterly and leaned into his ear.
"You can go back and look at the booklet later and you will know!"
"As for that medicine, there is no such thing as a pill for piercing the intestines and breaking the veins. It's just some flour mixed with some honey water."
"What? Then... where are those antidotes?" Nan Yanxi looked incredulous.
Lao Zhou shrugged and smiled extremely cunningly: "They are just some hawthorn pills for digestion. I mixed some croton powder into them."
"If they feel like having diarrhea after taking it, just tell them they are detoxifying!"
"Oh, old Uncle Zhou, you are worse than me..."
After listening to Lao Zhou's words, Nan Yanxi was extremely impressed.
This old Zhou is really good at deceiving people!
"Young master, I'm very grateful... As long as I can control them, I'll take my leave."
Lao Zhou smiled and said goodbye to Nan Yanxi and Ye Zhiyu.
He didn't forget to turn his head and glare at Xiao Li and the others as if in warning.
The three of them were so frightened that they kept shrinking their heads.
Only then did Lao Zhou laugh with satisfaction, and then he started to use Qinggong, and disappeared from sight after a while.
Nan Yanxi looked helplessly at Ye Zhiyu.
"Don't look at me. Didn't Senior Zhou say that these three are yours now? You can make your own arrangements."
After Ye Zhiyu finished speaking, he turned around, humming a song, and skipped towards the back mountain.
