Unfortunately, it was already too late.
Xuan Tianming had just said "Don't look." Before his hand could completely block Feng Yu Heng's line of sight, the severed finger in the box had already been seen by her.
Feng Yu Heng lunged at the box like she had gone crazy. Grabbing it in her hands, her arms trembled so much that she needed Xuan Tianming to help her carry it so that the box would not fall to the ground.
Inside the box was a severed finger. It was a child's little finger. The fingernail was slightly longer, and the small mole on the first finger joint was very obvious.
Feng Yu Heng was very decisive. She quickly calmed down. Without even thinking, she took out the severed finger and placed it in the operating room of her space. Her complexion was pale and a bit green. Xuan Tianming knew that this was the complexion of someone who was extremely angry. The other party had actually taken one of Zirui's fingers. Let alone Feng Yu Heng, even if it was him, he definitely could not allow those people to continue living.
He turned his head and gave an order: "The person who delivered the box is definitely on the boat. Inform everyone to search with all our might!"
Ban Zou nodded. Before he could turn around and leave, the boat suddenly began to violently shake. The shaking was sudden and large. Ban Zou was not able to stand firm. He also swayed and almost fell. Fortunately, the shaking quickly stabilized, but the boat was no longer calm. As the waves rolled up and down, they could faintly hear the cries of adults and the cries of children coming from the other cabins of the boat.
"Young miss, Your Highness!" Wang Chuan's voice sounded from outside the door. Ban Zou quickly went to open the door. After Wang Chuan entered, he immediately said: "There's a strong wind on the river. The boatmen are all working, so the boat is much slower."
Feng Yu Heng's heart sank again. She was a bit worried. From the severed side of the little finger, she could see that it had been severed at least two days ago. Although she had placed it in her space, she did not know how Zirui's injuries were. If she could immediately find that child, she could try to reattach the finger. However, if it was delayed for too long, it would be hard to say.
She anxiously asked Xuan Tianming: "Is there any way to catch up a bit faster?"
Xuan Tianming also felt very powerless. Right now, they were on the river. Everything depended on the boat. Even if they had their own boat, how fast could they be in such a strong wind and waves?
Feng Yu Heng saw his difficult expression and knew that this matter was very troublesome. Just as she was thinking about whether or not there was anything in the space that could be used, at this time, the ship that was already shaking violently suddenly shuddered again. This shuddering was even more intense than before, to the point that Wang Chuan was thrown to the ground.
............... Of............... For a moment, the private room was very crowded. However, because it was crowded, no one fell down again.
However, the other cabins were different. The boat's large jolts made the passengers very unlucky. From time to time, the wooden walls of the cabins would produce sounds of impact. The cries and cries of the people became even louder. The boatmen's shouts also became louder. They were mostly telling the people to return to their cabins and to not stand on the deck.
But the people that had already left found it very difficult to return under this sort of turbulence. The shaking of the boat became more and more intense. Feng Yu Heng's feet landed on the ground, and she faintly felt as though the bottom of the boat was cracking open.
She was not the only one who had this feeling. Xuan Tianming and the others also felt it.
At this time, two of the hidden guards who had been living on the bottom floor ran up and anxiously said: "The bottom of the boat has been tampered with by someone. The sails have all been damaged. At most, the boat will last for the time it takes to burn a stick of incense before it sinks."
The first to feel fear was the little girl. When she heard that the boat was about to sink, her face turned white and she began to tremble. Huang Quan asked her: "Do you know how to swim?"
The little girl shook her head, "I don't know."
Wang Chuan helplessly said: "She's so young. Even if she knows how to swim, it's useless. The wind on the river is strong. I'm afraid that she'll be swept away as soon as she enters the water. "As she spoke, she looked at Xuan Tianming and worriedly said:" The young miss also doesn't know how to swim. "
Indeed, Feng Yu Heng did not know how to swim. This was the most fatal point. Not only did Feng Yu Heng not know how to swim, but Huang Quan's swimming skills were also not very good. Last year, she had fallen into the water with Feng Yu Heng. Although she had gritted her teeth and practiced swimming for a while, she did not have much success.
However, the speed at which the boat was breaking down was becoming faster and faster. There was simply no time for them to make any plans. Before they could say anything, they heard a "kacha" sound come from the bottom of their feet. It was like a giant clap of thunder that fiercely struck the hearts of all of the passengers.
Under this giant clap of thunder, the entire boat broke in two without any hesitation. One head and one tail plunged into the deep waters of the Peng River. Cries of alarm sounded out, but they were instantly swallowed up by the river.
Xuan Tianming and the others reacted very quickly. He single-handedly grabbed Feng Yu Heng and did his best to lift her up. Ban Zou grabbed Huang Quan and Wang Chuan protected the little girl. The dozen or so people fell into the river with the other passengers. At this time, the cold of late autumn attacked. Even Xuan Tianming could not help but shiver.
Suddenly falling into the water, Feng Yu Heng was caught off guard. Even though there were people protecting her, she, who did not know how to swim, still drank a large mouthful of river water. Fortunately, Xuan Tianming immediately lifted her up a bit higher. At the same time, several hidden guards surrounded her and supported her together.
Like this, Feng Yu Heng was at a high point. Although her legs were still in the water, her upper body was already above the water. This kind of height allowed her to clearly see the scene in front of her. People fell into the water one after another. There were even people who held onto the boat tightly, not wanting to let go. However, the boat was quickly sinking. In the blink of an eye, it had disappeared into the river. Some people barely managed to grab onto a piece of the broken boat and supported their bodies as they floated on the surface of the river. The men who were good at swimming struggled to protect their families as they desperately tried to swim to the shore.
However, the surface of the Peng River was especially wide. Feng Yu Heng estimated that from here to the shore, there was at least a hundred meters of distance. The river wind was so strong that even people who were good at swimming would find it difficult to swim by themselves. How could they swim with their families?
However, misfortune never came alone. Just as the boat was about to be destroyed and the people were about to die, raindrops suddenly fell from the sky. At the beginning, people thought that it was splashing water from the river. However, everyone soon realized in despair that it was not splashing water that fell on their heads, but rather a torrential downpour.
The people who originally still had some strength gradually gave up struggling under this kind of heavy rain. Some people sank into the river in exhaustion. Some people let out a final howl in despair. There were also people who resigned themselves to their fate and hugged the boat as they waited to die.
For a moment, the river surface was like purgatory. Seeing this, Feng Yu Heng's eyes turned red.
"Xuan Tianming!" She loudly shouted, "Save them! Hurry and save them! "
A doctor had a benevolent heart. She had never been a vicious person. If possible, there was no one more than Feng Yu Heng who wished for the world to be peaceful and filial.
However, fate had arranged for her to walk down this kind of path. Not to mention fighting and killing in the inner courtyard of the residence, now that she was sitting on a boat, she had implicated so many people and caused them to lose their lives. She was a doctor. If possible, she hoped that everyone could live peacefully. Unfortunately, things did not go as she wished. This scene of death unfolded in front of her. Her heart ached so much that her eyes were about to drip blood.
Xuan Tianming naturally knew what she was thinking. Not only did Feng Yu Heng want to save people, he also wanted to! These were all Dashun's people. They were all his Xuan Family's people. His Xuan Family obtained this world in order to protect the peace and well-being of the people. But now, so many people were helplessly watching as they died in front of him. They were so helpless, so desperate, and collapsed. If he had six arms, he would definitely use five arms to save his people.
However, a doctor who saved the world and a prince of a country, neither of them could do anything at the same time. Xuan Tianming supported Feng Yu Heng with one hand. His other hand could at most grab three people who had fallen into the water. Many of the hidden guards were sent out, but there was a limit to their manpower. There were at least two hundred people on this boat. How could they save them with just a dozen people?
As for those who had sunk to the bottom of the water, Feng Yu Heng desperately shouted, "If you pull them up, they will have a chance to live!" But after shouting a few words, she lost her confidence.
Everyone understood this logic, but ….. how could they save them? Could it be that they were just going to watch the people on this boat die one by one?
This kind of question flashed in Xuan Tianming and Feng Yu Heng's minds at the same time. The two looked at each other. Xuan Tianming opened his mouth and asked her, "Can you save them?"
Feng Yu Heng almost immediately understood what the other party meant. Xuan Tianming was asking her if she could use the Universal Space to save these people. Her mind raced. It wasn't impossible to put these people into the space with anesthetic needles, but the space was limited. Even if there were two floors, it would be too crowded. But it made her think that there really was something in the space that could be used!
She reached her hand into her sleeve and directly probed the operating room with her consciousness. How could she forget that there were several oxygen bags in the operating room? Those bags were bulging, so it wouldn't be a problem to use them to save lives. She was overjoyed. This was something that originally existed in the space, so it was inexhaustible. Right now, she didn't care whether her identity would be suspected or not. She simply took one out and threw it into the river. At the same time, she heard Xuan Tianming shout in the direction of the oxygen bag, "Catch it!"
The rain was pouring down. Even if he used his internal Qi, his voice couldn't travel far. What's more, there were mournful screams floating on the river. The voices were mixed together, so there were very few people who could hear his shout.
But it didn't matter. As long as one person heard it, it was enough. They saw a young man dragging a young woman and a child. The oxygen bag just happened to fall in front of the three of them. When the man heard Xuan Tianming's words, he suspiciously put his hand on it. Then, he found that the strange bag had a very strong buoyancy. He was overjoyed and repeatedly nodded to Xuan Tianming to express his gratitude. Then, he took the lead to pull the child over and put him on the bag.
When people saw this scene, they all looked around to see if there were any similar bags. Feng Yu Heng then began to take things out of the space. The shadow guards were well aware of this and surrounded her in a circle, trying their best to make it so that no one could see her. Xuan Tianming also held her waist in the middle to ensure that she didn't sink into the water. At the same time, the shadow guards who were freed up also dived into the river to pull up as many people as possible who had sunk into the water.
Feng Yu Heng didn't know how many bags were taken out of the bag. In short, looking around, although the people on the river were still in a miserable state, they still had the strength to lie on the bag and float. Although they still couldn't avoid death, the situation was basically under control and was much better than before.
The shadow guards instructed the people to swim towards the river as much as possible. Those who knew how to swim pushed from the back. Although the speed was very slow and difficult, the people finally saw hope.
Right at this moment, Feng Yu Heng suddenly turned her head and suddenly discovered that on the other side of the sunken boat, there was actually a person who was trying to swim in the opposite direction. Moreover, his speed was extremely fast, as if he was running for his life.
Her gaze turned cold as she stretched out her hand and pointed in that direction, shouting loudly, "Catch him!"
