Following this shout, all of the elite soldiers of Qian Zhou immediately withdrew from the battlefield and began to surround the area where the voice had come from.
Feng Yu Heng's hand that was holding the scalpel began to tremble. Looking in the direction of the voice, she saw over ten people in black clothes suddenly appear on the other side of the deck. They were all holding bows and arrows, and their eyes were cold. Most importantly, there was a large cage in front of those people. Inside the cage was a boy. He was only wearing white cotton clothes. His hair was messy, and his face was dirty. His eyes were sunken, and his hands that were holding onto the cage were covered in blood. The pinky finger on his left hand had been completely cut off.
Tears immediately began to flow from her eyes. Unable to control her body, she subconsciously wanted to rush forward. Xuan Tianming quickly caught her from behind in fear. At the same time, he placed his chin on her head and quietly said: "Don't be rash. You absolutely must not be rash."
Feng Yu Heng also knew that this was not the time to be rash, but the younger brother that she had been searching for for so many days was right before her. How could she not be anxious? Especially the pinky on his small hand. She did not know if she could still reattach it. It had been broken for so many days. Even if it was reattached, it would definitely have lost its mobility, right?
A monstrous hatred surged forth once more. At this moment, Feng Yu Heng was like an angry leopard. She arched her body and could rush forward at any moment to bite him.
Zirui began to cry loudly. No matter how strong he was, he was still just a child. Suddenly encountering such a calamity, he had endured for so many days. He did not even cry when his pinky finger was cut off, but now that he saw his elder sister, he could no longer hold back his grief. Once the cries began, they could not be stopped. The cries caused Feng Yu Heng to feel heartbroken.
Among the archers from Qian Zhou, there was one that was the leader. Seeing the affection between the siblings, he could not help but laugh. Facing the rain, he loudly said: "Imperial daughter Ji An, do you want this child to live?"
Feng Yu Heng fiercely gritted her teeth. Her entire body trembled, and she was completely unable to speak. Xuan Tianming shouted from behind her, "What's the deal?"
The other side laughed loudly, and his laughter was filled with greed: "His Ninth Highness, don't worry. Qian Zhou does not want your beloved woman's life. If you can use the method for producing steel in exchange, this child will be returned to you. If you can't … "The man laughed sinisterly." I heard that Princess Ji 'an dotes on her younger brother very much. I wonder what the princess will do if I break a few more of his fingers? "
As the man spoke, he had already taken a dagger from the person beside him. He held it in his hand and weighed it up and down, waiting for the other party's reply.
When Feng Zirui heard this, the child's crying gradually stopped. He could finally speak again, but the words he said were — — "Sister! Don't give it to them! Zirui was not afraid of death! The method for producing steel will be left in Dashun. There will come a day when elder sister and brother-in-law will bring soldiers with steel weapons and charge into Qian Zhou. When that time comes, you can kill them all and get revenge for Zirui! The method for producing steel definitely cannot be given away! "
At this time, Feng Yu Heng had gradually calmed down. A trace of doubt began to appear in her mind. She suddenly raised her voice and asked: "How did you find out that Zirui was going to Xiao Zhou alone? Who gave you the message? "
This question had been in her mind for a few days. Originally, Zirui would not have returned to Xiao Zhou so quickly. It could be said that traveling with her was a decision made at the last minute. How could the other side have found out so quickly?
Xuan Tianming was also pondering her question. He very quickly said to her: "The Feng family has a traitor."
Of course, she knew that the Feng family had a traitor. Feng Jin Yuan had hidden guards from Qian Zhou at his side. But this was something that Feng Yu Heng did not want to admit the most. But many things were like this. The more you did not want to hear it, the more things would develop in the direction that you did not want to hear it.
The people of Qian Zhou had a very good grasp of fighting and infuriating people. When Feng Yu Heng asked this question, the other side immediately laughed and told her: "Do you want to know who wants you and your brother to die? Do you want to know who wants to use you and your brother and the method for producing steel as a bargaining chip to make a deal with me, Dashun, to make a comeback? Then I will tell you. It's your father, a person named Feng Jin Yuan. It was him that secretly sent a letter to us, saying that you and your brother have deep feelings for each other. He told us that if we could not control you, we must think of a way to control your mother and your brother. Like this, we can use them to do whatever we want to you! And this time, it was him that told us through the people at his side that you and your brother will be leaving the capital. "
After he finished speaking, he looked at Feng Yu Heng with a smug and expectant expression. He was waiting for her to collapse. He was waiting for the legendary Princess Ji An to go crazy.
Unfortunately, they had all forgotten an important point. Since Feng Jin Yuan could be so heartless to his children, then how much affection could his children have for him?
Their words did not have the effect that they had imagined. Not only did Feng Yu Heng not go crazy, but even Zirui, who was in the cage, began to laugh. The child sarcastically said: "I was wondering who it was. It turned out that it was that old friend that tried to kill us time and time again. Does he want to borrow Qian Zhou's power to make a comeback? Does he want to go to Qian Zhou to become the prime minister? I really am worried for your ruler! This sort of person that is so heartless to his children, if there comes a day when your Qian Zhou's ruler does not go according to his wishes, if you cannot satisfy any of his requests, he will turn around and work with the other countries to deal a fatal blow to Qian Zhou. Tsk tsk, Qian Zhou's ruler is still too young. He can't even understand this. "
In truth, Zirui's words had a large loophole. Feng Jin Yuan was currently dealing with Qian Zhou because he had Feng Yu Heng as a bargaining chip. But once this bargaining chip was thrown out, it would no longer belong to him. The ability to turn against Qian Zhou was something that he really did not have. That was why Zirui only wanted to anger the people of Qian Zhou. He also wanted to use this opportunity to vent his anger toward his father. He did not hold any hopes of scaring them.
The people of Qian Zhou did indeed not take his words to heart, but they could ignore whether or not Feng Jin Yuan had the chance to betray them a second time, but they could not ignore the attitude of the siblings toward their father. At first, they wanted to use those words to provoke Feng Yu Heng. Now, it seemed that they could not provoke Feng Yu Heng. Even the young Feng Zirui could not be provoked. That old bastard Feng Jin Yuan really was worse than a dog or a pig in his own family.
Since they could not provoke Feng Yu Heng, they had to think of something else. The leader squatted down and leaned close to Zirui. Reaching out, he grabbed his right wrist that did not have a broken finger. Zirui's arm brushed past the metal cage and was pulled out, leaving a bloody mark.
Feng Yu Heng's heart was in extreme pain. Her entire body exuded a cold aura that even Xuan Tianming could feel.
Feng Zirui's voice came once more. The child's voice was very resolute, as he loudly said: "Sis! Don't worry about me! Teacher said that if a person cannot live properly, they must choose to die a worthy death! Zirui is not afraid of death. He is just afraid that our Dashun's things will end up in the hands of these wolf cubs! Brother-in-law! Quickly tell my sister that she absolutely must not give the method for producing steel to them! "
Feng Yu Heng's eyes were completely red. At this time, Xuan Tianming could see that her eyes, which were normally slightly red, were now even redder. Amidst the redness, there seemed to be a bit of gold mixed in. That bit of gold gradually spread. It was as though they had become two phoenixes that had been reborn from the ashes, as they burned fiercely in her eyes.
She did not speak for a long time, but Xuan Tianming spoke up for her: "The person that you want to die definitely will not die. The thing that you want to exchange for will definitely not be exchanged. People of Qian Zhou, from the moment that you entered Dashun, there was no way for you to survive. Is there a need for I to personally tell you this? "
When he spoke, his gaze was calm; however, it was a message that could not be questioned. Those people from Qian Zhou had Zirui in their hands. Although they could not guarantee that they would be able to leave alive, they definitely had ten thousand methods to kill the child in the cage.
They believed that Xuan Tianming's words were a bit too exaggerated. They were just trying to be mysterious to scare them. Moreover …
The leader stood up and raised the bow in his hand. With him leading the way, the other divine archers also aimed their bows at the other side. With an arrow nocked on the bowstring, the arrow swayed slightly. It was clear that they were preparing to use a tracking arrow.
"On a large river, there is nowhere to hide." That person raised his voice and shouted, "Princess Ji 'an, even if you also know how to use a tracking arrow, even if you shoot at us, you are just one person. A child and your two lives in exchange for the method for producing steel. Will you give it up or not? "
The other side's words were filled with determination. Who knew why, but that person felt that Xuan Tianming was right. They could not kill Feng Zirui, and they could not obtain the method for producing steel. But if they failed in their mission and returned to Qian Zhou, it would be difficult for them to escape death. It would be better to risk it all. If they really could take the lives of those two, returning to Qian Zhou could be considered an explanation to that hateful ruler.
The enemy's arrow swayed a little more. Feng Yu Heng knew that the tracking arrow could be shot out at any moment. But she was not afraid in the slightest!
What was there for her to be afraid of. Xuan Tianming had already ordered the people behind him to pull their arms together and place them on his shoulder. As for him, he had been holding her from behind the entire time. As soon as the arrows came, she could bring everyone into the space and disappear at any time. But this was her last resort. Unless there was no other choice, she would not use it. The people of Qian Zhou, if she did not take their lives today, she, Feng Yu Heng, would have let down this transmigration. She would have lived this second life for nothing.
The corners of her lips curled into a sneer. She ignored the people of Qian Zhou. Instead, she looked at the cage and asked Zirui: "Zirui, are you afraid?"
The child shook his head, "Zirui, I am only afraid that elder sister will give the method for producing steel to the people of Qian Zhou. I am not afraid of anything else."
She nodded, "You really are worthy of being my, Feng Yu Heng's, younger brother! Don't worry, elder sister will not let you die, and I will not allow you to suffer any further harm. Even that finger of yours, elder sister will think of a way to reattach it. These people of Qian Zhou, elder sister will break their hands and feet in a moment then give you a knife. You are not young anymore. It's time for you to learn how to kill people! "
These words sounded like a great joke to the people of Qian Zhou, but not a single one of them could laugh. Intuition told them that everything that Feng Yu Heng said could be realized.
In this moment of distraction, not even three breaths later, a loud "bang" came from the other side. Someone saw that something had appeared in Princess Ji 'an's hand. It was black and had a strange appearance. Nobody could tell what it was. Following this sound, a bloody hole suddenly appeared on the forehead of the person closest to Zi Rui. His eyes were wide open, and blood flowed out. Just like that, he fell to the ground, completely without any defenses.
Immediately following this, they saw Feng Yu Heng raise both of her hands. The black thing went from one to two, from two to three, from three to four, two in each hand. The "bang, bang" sound came once more. This time, bloody holes appeared on the wrists of the people holding the bows.
