In contrast to Ah Zha's speed, Feng Qiqi's movements were slower. Feng Cang paid attention to where Feng Qiqi was stepping and memorized her movements.
At this moment, Mingyue Cheng's heart was in his throat. Mingyue Cheng was displeased that Feng Cang had agreed to let Feng Qiqi climb the knife mountain. If it were him, he would not allow anything to happen to Feng Qiqi. Even if there was a possibility of an accident, he would not allow it to happen.
Mingyue Cheng's heart was in his throat as he watched Feng Qiqi climb the knife. Even his breathing became heavy. If anything were to happen to Feng Qiqi, he would be the first to catch her.
Ah Zha's mouth was agape as he watched Feng Qiqi climb the knife ladder. No woman had ever climbed up a mountain of sabers, let alone a delicate lady like Feng Qiqi. Even though Feng Qiqi's movements were not fast, her legs were not injured at all. If this was her first time climbing up a mountain of sabers, it would be a miracle!
When Feng Qiqi came down from the top of the knife, the people who were waiting by the side heaved a sigh of relief.
"Young mistress, are you alright?" Su Mei hurried forward to check on Feng Qiqi's feet. Out of the five layers of socks, three were cut, but her feet were fine.
"It seems like my skills are still lacking!" Feng Qiqi said with a smile. Ah Zha gave Feng Qiqi a thumbs up. "Your Highness, you're amazing! If you were a man, you would be a real man! "
Ah Zha was impressed by Feng Qiqi. As a woman, it was not easy for her to climb the knife ladder and back. Ah Zha was not an idiot. Feng Qiqi was able to figure out the trick just by looking at him. This woman was very smart.
Seeing that Feng Qiqi was fine, Feng Cang was relieved. He clearly saw that Feng Qiqi's hand was clawed, and her feet did not step on the knife. Instead, she stepped on the side of the knife. This was probably the trick that Feng Qiqi was trying to tell him.
"Cang …" Feng Qiqi put on her shoes and whispered in Feng Cang's ears. Feng Cang nodded his head. It was just as he had guessed. However, Feng Qiqi had used some of the principles of Qinggong to increase the strength of her lower body to her upper body.
With Feng Qiqi's demonstration, Feng Cang put on his socks. "Let me try!"
After one round, the soles of four pairs of socks were cut off. Only the last pair of socks was left to protect Feng Cang's feet. Feng Qiqi's body was light, but Feng Cang was a grown man, so it was only natural that he was heavier than Feng Qiqi.
Ah Zha nodded when he saw that even though it was their first time climbing a mountain of knives, they were able to wear five pairs of socks without injuring their feet. However, if he really went up the mountain of blades, he should be barefoot like he was just now. Feng Cang was already very powerful, but if he really went up the mountain of blades barefoot, without the protection of socks, he might get his soles cut.
"Cousin Azza, please help my friend!"
Mingyue Cheng also knew the relationship between them, so he personally asked Azza for help. The men of the Xing tribe had been learning how to climb the mountain of blades from the most capable men in the village. Ah Zha was now a teacher in the village. If he could help Feng Cang, Feng Cang would definitely be able to pass the test.
Ah Zha was originally the son of Mingyue Cheng's mother and Miao Chuyun's elder brother. Later, the entire Miao family was executed, and Ah Zha was sent back to Hundred Bird Mountain by Goode. That was how the bloodline of the Miao family was preserved. It could be said that the two of them were the closest in the village.
Ah Zha smiled in response to Mingyue Cheng's request. He was no fool. He had seen how worried Mingyue Cheng was when Feng Qiqi was climbing the stairs. However, Feng Qiqi was Feng Cang's wife. That meant that there would never be a future between them.
"Ah Cheng!" Ah Zha patted Mingyue Cheng's shoulder. The Miao family was very affectionate, but Mingyue Cheng was already deeply in love. It seemed like he was unable to extricate himself.
"For your sake, I'll definitely help you!"
Ah Zha's idea was simple. Mingyue Cheng liked Feng Qiqi, but she was already married to someone else. No matter what, he had to give Mingyue Cheng a place in Feng Qiqi's heart. At the very least, he had to make her feel grateful to him. That way, even if they could not be lovers, they could still be friends.
Feng Qiqi and Feng Cang were very happy that Ah Zha was willing to help, and they were even more grateful to Mingyue Cheng.
For the next two days, Feng Cang stayed at the top of the Hundred Bird Mountain to learn how to climb the mountain with Ah Zha. In those two days, Ah Zha taught Feng Cang everything he knew. However, Feng Cang's training time was too short. Two days passed in the blink of an eye. In the blink of an eye, it was the day to pass the test.
Early in the morning, the young and old of the Yun tribe came to the plaza. A twenty-meter-long knife ladder was erected in the middle of the plaza.
Seventy-two sharp knives were tied to the knife ladder, layer by layer.
The sunlight shone on the knives, making them shine brightly. The people of the Yun tribe began to discuss among themselves when they saw the knife ladder. The five elders sat on the high platform, and Good personally led Feng Cang and his group over.
Unlike usual, the witch doctor was already waiting at the side, ready to bandage Feng Cang's wounds.
Feng Cang's identity was different from those who came to ask for the cure. Feng Cang was the regent of Beizhou. If anything happened to him on the Hundred Bird Mountain, Beizhou would definitely not let it go. By then, it would become a conflict between two countries.
To avoid any accidents, Good discussed with the elders and decided to have the witch doctor prepare. As soon as Feng Cang's feet bled, he was to come down immediately. It was a small matter if Feng Cang could not pass the test, but if his life was in danger, it would be a big problem.
At the same time, Jin Mo was also waiting at the side with a medical kit.
"Quiet —" Good stood on the plaza and shouted. Everyone quieted down.
Everyone stared at Feng Cang. The news that this lord of Beizhou came all the way to Nanfeng Nation to cure the Gu for the sake of his beloved son had already spread throughout the entire village. The performance of Feng Cang and Feng Qiqi at the bonfire that night was very popular among the people of the Yun tribe. Now that Feng Cang was going to pass the three tests, they were even more impressed.
Regardless of whether Feng Cang could pass the three tests, what he did for his son was enough to show that he was a responsible and loving father.
"Do your best!" Ah Zha encouraged Feng Cang. For the past two days, Feng Cang had been training day and night. Ah Zha admired his spirit of never giving up.
Although it had only been two days, Feng Cang had already mastered the trick of climbing the knife mountain. Yesterday, when he climbed the ladder for the last time, Feng Cang wore a pair of socks. When he came down, only a few fibers were cut. To Feng Cang, this was already a huge improvement.
